After the box office rankings for the week of June 28 to July 4 were released, there was no difference from what most people speculated: "Peacock" ranked second in the weekly box office list with a total of 28 million box office in the three days of the opening weekend, and above it was "Please Close Your Eyes When It's Dark" in the second week of screening, this horror film seized the vacuum period before the start of the summer season and successfully won the first place in the weekly box office list with a second week box office of 47 million.

47 million weekly box office can win the first place in the weekly box office, which also shows how embarrassing this schedule is.

But fortunately, the hot summer file is coming.

Like "Peacock", "Pretty Woman", which was released nationwide on July 2, climbed to the fifth place in this week's box office list with 2.9 million, this number does not seem to be dazzling, just from the box office, "Pretty Woman" has been completely defeated by "Peacock", but if you look down carefully and see the number of theaters behind this number - 98, you can know how terrifying this number is.

98 theaters, each with two shows per day, with an average attendance rate of 96% for three days, set a record of 2.9 million and ranked fifth in the weekly box office list.

When they saw this number, everyone including entertainment reporters, theater owners, theater bigwigs, and so on were stunned - if you take out a film in the top 10 of the weekly box office list, there are at least 500 theaters showing it, and every movie in the top five of the weekly box office list is screened in at least 1,000 theaters, and they have never heard of a movie entering the top five of the weekly box office list when it is screened in less than 100 theaters.

Especially when it was only screened for three days on the weekend!

The stunned crowd began to look for the reason: Oh, it turned out that it happened to be a hot mess a week before the release, and it should have been a little hot all of a sudden. Find out the reason again: Oh, it turns out that the geographical location of these theaters is okay, the showtime is good, and the number of theaters is still small, this situation is also acceptable. When the heat passes, I believe the audience will also come to their senses.

This is a common opinion, even within DreamWorks.

Anyway, the box office of the three days of the premiere weekend is a big number, "Peacock" defeated "Pretty Woman", and looking at the momentum, "Peacock" has no problem winning the first place in the weekly box office list in the next week, which also gives the "Peacock" crew great confidence, Gu Changwei's old face when interviewed by the media seems to be ten years younger for a while, full of energy, smiling, and smiling whenever people open their mouths - can he not be happy? The first work of the transformed director was a success, and the cost of production was recovered in three days, and then the publicity cost was recovered in one day, and then it was all pure profit, of course he was happy, you know, he also had dividends in "Peacock".

And his insiders have a very high evaluation of "Peacock", which can be called a win-win situation for art and business, which is not enough for him to be happy?

Ma Baoping, the producer of "Peacock", told the media: "I said a few years ago that Zhang Jingchu declined the invitation of "Pretty Woman" to come to our crew of "Peacock" It was the right choice, and I seemed to be saying that she might win the Best Newcomer Award at the Huabiao Awards? ”

This is undoubtedly a second hype, continuing to stir up the popularity of "Peacock".

"Peacock" will be fried, and "Pretty Woman in the Wind and Moon" is naturally not far behind, Shu Yu said to the media in response to Ma Baoping's remarks: "I don't know if Zhang Jingchu will win the Huabiao Award for Best Newcomer, but "Pretty Woman in the Wind and Moon" has the Huabiao Award for Best Actor and Best Actress, so why should I regret Zhang Jingchu's failure to act?"

The three reporters who did this interview at the time were simply crazy: among so many producers in the film and television industry, only Shu Yu could say this kind of thing - this woman, like her golden partner Duane, was a dared.

Of course, the media also loves the two of them the most, and it is almost certain that where there are them, there is no shortage of fierce news, like this time, isn't it?

Everyone happily went back to add oil and vinegar to have a good fry, the audience was happy to see it, and they were happy to get the bonus, and the crew of "Peacock" and "Pretty Woman" continued to be fired, and they were all happy, they were all happy.

Then the second week came.

"When the heat passes, I believe the audience will come to their senses. This is the conclusion issued by a certain theater boss after facing the market survey form of "Pretty Woman", and on Monday's box office, his remarks are indeed proven.

But not on "Pretty Woman", but on "Peacock".

Based on the good news that the average box office of more than 8 million per day in the three days last weekend, the distributor of "Peacock" is confident, expecting "Peacock" to collect at least 40 million at the box office this week, but Monday's box office has stabbed them in the heart.

2.3 million, this is the total box office of "Peacock" in 1,500 theaters across the country on Monday, compared with Sunday's box office of 10.8 million, which is down by four-fifths! Even if Monday does have an impact on the box office, it cannot be compared with Sunday, but the proportion of four-fifths is too large, right? Their psychological bottom line is to drop by half.

And even before that, they were eager to continue to expand the distribution next week.

"It should just be an accident, and it will get up later. ”

"Peacock" producer Ma Baoping's face was ugly when he said this, and even he didn't have much confidence in saying this, while Gu Changwei, who was sitting opposite him, had a gloomy face and didn't say a word.

Things always go in a bad direction.

At the box office on Tuesday, "Peacock" closed 2.2 million, basically the same as Monday, and there is no upward trend, but for the current "Peacock", it is good to be stable - stable on weekdays, three days on weekends, according to the momentum of last week's weekend and three days, there is still hope for 40 million this week.

Ma Baoping didn't dare to show up again, saying anything, this would be Zhang Jingchu's first movie with a box office of over 100 million as the protagonist.

2.4 million on Wednesday and 1.8 million on Thursday......

Ma Baoping and Gu Changwei couldn't sleep well in the box office figures of the past few days, and they really couldn't think of anything wrong -- didn't people in the industry all have high evaluations? Gu Changwei even went to the Internet to read it, and the score of "Peacock" on Douban was 7. 8, this score is quite good, which shows that the masses have a high evaluation of this film, but why did the box office fall so much?

is different from "Peacock", "Pretty Woman" is as stable as Mount Tai, and the average attendance rate of 96% per game is 96%, and it does not move at all. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, for four consecutive days, the average attendance rate per game every day is between 94% and 98%, which is 96% on average, which is basically the same as the attendance rate on the first three days of the release.

"It's been several days in a row, and the attendance hasn't improved at all, and as a director and as the person in charge of this film, I blame myself. ”

This is what Du An's words said to Shu Yu at the meeting on Thursday, Lu Fanghe held a mouthful of old blood in his throat and almost didn't spit it out: It's 96%, how can you improve your old man! If you say this, if Gu Changwei hears it, he will definitely slap you to death, believe it or not!

To tell the truth, when faced with these figures, Lu Fanghe immediately wondered if he was dazzled -- according to the analyst's analysis, according to the normal trend in the new week, the box office should decline? Even if the various favorable factors of the Duane structure are there, the decline will be reduced, but it should also be reduced? Why is it not right to stay at the terrifying figure of 96% attendance?

"Don't blame yourself, I'm quite satisfied with this result, I believe everyone here has no opinions, right?"

Watching Du An and Shu Yu, the pair of dog men and women, singing and singing double reeds, the others could only laugh: "No, no, Director Du, you are already very powerful." "To maintain such a high attendance rate, ordinary people can't do it, or Director Du, you make a good movie." "I think Mr. Shu is a good producer, I mention yì, our company's next film will continue to cooperate with Director Du and Mr. Shu, I believe that we can continue to write this myth again." ”……

Looking at this group of sycophants, Du Anzhong shook his head again and again, and secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, he didn't go to work according to the life trajectory of ordinary people, otherwise he would probably be used to shooting sycophants like them for a long time.

"How's next week's theatrical talk?"

Shu Yu didn't bother to listen to these people, and asked Lu Fanghe, who was sitting on her right hand.

Lu Fanghe reported: "Wanda and Jinyi have negotiated, the two theaters have a total of 1,700 theaters, and each theater has 5 shows per day, at least one of which is guaranteed to be in prime time. As for the other theater lines, they are still being negotiated, and they should be finalized tomorrow at the latest. ”

It's so easy to talk about, but it's entirely due to the average daily attendance rate of 96% of "Pretty Woman": if the attendance rate for three days on the weekend is still guided by a variety of factors, and it is not believable, then the horror attendance rate for four consecutive days is enough to tell the problem - this movie does have a strong attraction for the audience, this is a box office bomb, and whoever misses it will not be able to get along with the money!

"The copy should be made in advance, time is pressing, don't rush when the time comes......"

"Pretty Woman in the Moon" is indeed stable, with an average attendance rate of 96% per game, but it has fluctuated a little bit on the three days of the weekend - from an average of 96% per game to an average of 100% per game, which has little impact on the box office. And "Peacock" finally got rid of the difficult period of hovering around 2 million box office for four consecutive days, and rushed to 6 million on Friday, seeing that Saturday could make another effort, but on Saturday, the box office turned around and fell to 4.5 million, which almost made the main creator of "Peacock" vomit blood.

22.9 million, the box office of the second week of "Peacock" is fixed on this number -- the box office of the seven days of this week is not as high as the box office of the three days of the opening weekend! Relying on this box office figure, "Peacock" continues to rank second, and the top is still "Please Close Your Eyes When It's Dark", 24.5 million, the first place in the weekly box office list.

The distributor and producer of "Please Close Your Eyes When It's Dark" never expected things to turn out like this: they were ready to give way this week, but they didn't expect the box office curve of "Peacock" to be so weird, and they forcibly gave them the weekly box office championship again! So they were happy to continue to win this championship, but this was also the last time they won the box office weekly championship.

"Peacock" will miss, but "Kung Fu" will not.

Next Friday, "Kung Fu" will be released nationwide, although it is only three days on the weekend, but looking at the current box office rankings and the film scheduling plans of various companies, next week's weekly box office champion has been booked by "Kung Fu", and fans across the country are also looking forward to it.

With the arrival of "Kung Fu", the hot summer box office war is finally about to kick off, and all kinds of blockbusters are about to come.

On the weekly box office list, "Pretty Woman" took two steps forward, and quietly jumped to the third place in the weekly box office list with a number of 6.7 million.

Next week, it will usher in the first week of large-scale screenings nationwide, and the number of theaters will be opened.

3600.
