Chapter 597: Domestic vs. Foreign

The next day, Gao Yuanyuan left and continued to go to the roadshow of "Beijing Meets Seattle" to promote.

Zhang Zilin also left, ready to shoot "Transformers 4", and yes, this is Fu Luo's final recommendation.

Anyway, in Paramount's eyes, it doesn't matter who plays this supporting role, as long as the identity is a Chinese, it is originally a "premeditated" strong planting story to achieve the goal.

Then Fu Luo also returned to his own filming life, because since he joined the group, he has been focusing on filming scenes related to him all the time, so the progress is not slow, and his personal role is nearing the end.

In this way, as the time slowly came to the beginning of April, "Jingxi", which was released on March 21, has also been in theaters for two weeks.

The box office result of the first four days was 96.74 million yuan, almost breaking 100 million, which is already good, and it also refreshed director Xue Xiaolu's personal opening record.

In the second week, the film made further efforts, and finally hit the box office of 212 million yuan, an increase of 110% compared with the first week, and the cumulative box office was 309 million yuan.

Needless to say, the results of the past two weeks have all won the box office weekly championship and completed the hegemony.

In the first week, it was even more than the Hollywood blockbuster "Die Hard 5", which cost $150 million, although this movie was a week earlier than "Jingxi", but it only had a box office of 102 million yuan in the first week, 76.15 million yuan in the second week, and 19.38 million yuan in the third week.

It can only be said that Lao Bu is really old, and "Tiger 5" itself has no highlights at all, and it is not as popular as the "Crime Alliance" series, and it only got a box office of 67.34 million US dollars in North America.

Fortunately, the global box office is barely watchable, and it is currently close to the $200 million mark, but even so, "Tiger 5" still seems to be a money-accompaniment product.

In addition, in the first week's schedule, there is also a follow-up work "Ip Man's Ultimate War" starring Huang Moumou, who survived in the cracks and got a box office of more than 5 million, which is estimated to be at this level, and it can't be higher.

In the second week, in addition to "Tiger 5", which lost all its might, there were also three movies, "The Drama Chef and the Ruffian", "The Wizard of the Magic Mirror", and "Giant Catcher Jack", which were all trampled under the feet of "Jingxi".

Among them, "The Drama Cook, the Ruffian" got a box office of 77.31 million yuan in three days, "Magic Mirror" was also released for three days, but only got a box office of 58.84 million yuan, and "Giant" was probably the worst, with a box office of only 43.11 million yuan in seven days.

Judging from the data, the two domestic films "Jingxi" and "Drama Chef Ruffian" can be regarded as trampling on the three Hollywood movies of "Huwei 5", "Magic Mirror" and "Giant", which is still rare.

Of course, this is probably related to the general quality of "Tiger 5" and "Giant", and "Magic Mirror" is a Western fairy tale, and it is not surprising that it has not exploded in China.

Anyway, in this March, "Jingxi", which was only released for two weeks, became the biggest winner and got the most box office.

And then this movie is not very good in terms of word-of-mouth, it has slowly become a troll, a Douban where the water army is concentrated, and there are many people who complain about all kinds of tricks of 360 degrees or "take money to do things", the current score is 6.2 points, and it seems that it is not bad for a domestic movie to have this score.

But this thing doesn't matter, because most of the audience won't watch Douban at all, and the people here are only a few "elites", plus the concentration of most of the water armies.

If you do a good job, people will be jealous, and if you do a bad job, they will look down on you.

If you let go, people will say that you are unscrupulous, and if you are conservative, they will say that you are pretending.

If you treat people well, people will say that you are stupid, and if you are shrewd, they will call you a traitor.

If you are enthusiastic, people will say that you are a waste, and if you are cold, they will say that you are proud.

Whether it's good or not, anyway, people who like to pick thorns will always find new spray spots, which is really embarrassing for the other party, and the core connotation of this truth is sometimes applicable to the reputation of the movie.

And whether a movie is worth watching or not, I believe that every audience has their own scale in their hearts, and if they feel that it is worth the fare, they will recommend it to their friends, and if it is not worth it, they will advise their friends not to watch it, this is the real audience reputation.

In addition, in addition to the box office of "Jingxi" in China, "Havoc in Heaven" also opened in 2,000 theaters in North America on March 22.

In the end, it got a weekend box office of $23.72 million, and $27.21 million for the whole four days, ranking third on the North American box office weekly list.

The top two were "Crazy Primitives" released on the same day and "The White House Has Fallen" in the United States, which received $43.63 million and $30.37 million at the weekend box office, respectively.

The former "Madness" is a very family-friendly movie, and the latter "Fallen" is of the same nature as the penny crazy "Wolf Warrior", the main theme of personal and national heroism.

It's just a lying gun, no, it's the three fat people who are lying down the gun are a little miserable, I feel that this movie is only reasonable if it comes out? Of course, if you let ** shoot, it is estimated that it will liberate the people of the United States living under capitalist oppression.

Sanpang will definitely say in his heart that if I want to have such strength, I will abuse Lao Mei out of "Zhou Libo" in points.

Even if you can't destroy Lao Mei, you can always kill the "brother" Lao Han, and then rob the girl group and go home slowly......

In any case, as a foreign film, the number of theaters of "Big Trouble" is far lower than that of "Madness" and "Fallen", and it is definitely a surprise to get a box office of $27.21 million.

What's more, the audience reputation of "Big Trouble" is very good, and the audience score from the CinemaScore statistical survey has A, that is, CinemaScore predicts that the final total box office of "Big Trouble" is only 80 million US dollars, which is estimated to be a factor factoring in the foreign films of "Big Trouble".

And the accuracy of this CinemaScore prediction is quite good, and it can hit many times, of course, there are times when it misses, such as this "Big Trouble" slapped CinemaScore in the face the next week.

After increasing the scale of 1,000 movie theaters, "Big Trouble" successfully counterattacked to the top of the weekly box office in North America, directly getting $43.52 million at the weekend box office, and $65.87 million at the box office seven days a week.

As a result, the total box office of "Big Trouble" accumulated to $93.08 million, breaking CinemaScore's prediction in just two weeks.

Following Universal's decision to increase the scale of theaters by 1,000 again next week, the number of theaters of "Big Trouble" has reached 4,000, which can be regarded as the scale of the average Hollywood blockbuster.

Then CinemaScore, which knew that it was wrong, immediately changed its forecast, from $90 million to $160 million, which is a lot more than that.

In addition, the results of the second week of "Big Trouble" not only trampled "Madness" and "Fallen" under their feet, but also forced the just-released "Special Forces 2: Total Counterattack" to a head, the first weekend box office of this movie was $40.5 million, which is not much, but it was a loss after all.

Fu Luo is still very satisfied with this score card, and three weeks have passed, and "Big Trouble" has once again grossed $1.23 million and $13.6 million in South Korea and Japan respectively.

In this way, the total global box office of $1.416 billion before "Big Trouble" was pushed up to $1.524 billion again.

also successfully trampled the $1.518 billion "Women's Federation" under its feet, ranking third in the history of the global box office, and the domestic media was full of churning reports for a while.

It is said that "Big Trouble" can get such a good North American box office result, and there is naturally a certain reason.

After all, before this, North American audiences only stayed on the basis of kung fu movies for Chinese films, and when they suddenly encountered a new type of movie, they would naturally pay attention.

Just like Lao Mouzi's "Hero" and Li Yu's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", there have been no similar oriental movies before, and they didn't get a good box office in the end.

This reason is also valid for "The Big Trouble", and the level of film production has indeed reached the world's top effect, all of which have boosted the potential of the box office.
