Chapter 904: Summer Hurricane
The first issue of "Network Noodles" was successfully recorded.
There are Ye Qiu, Feng Gang, and several well-known artillerymen who fight and mix nets.
The views of both sides in this first issue of "Internet Noodles" have been hotly discussed by many netizens.
And then the box office of "Wolf Warrior: Operation Mekong" rose again, and the box office broke through the 1 billion Chinese dollar mark, becoming the highest-grossing main theme film in the history of Chinese films.
It is worth mentioning that "Operation Mekong of Wolf Warriors" has achieved extremely good box office in East Asian countries, but the box office in North America is not very good, of course, this is not very good, compared to blockbuster films like "Transformers", compared to domestic films, the box office of tens of millions of dollars of this movie is still commendable.
At the same time, there are many fewer brainless scolding on the Internet, not because there is none, but because this kind of brainless scolding will be overwhelmed by countless netizens as soon as it appears.
The successor "Transformers 2" continued the popularity of the first part, and the topic of "Operation Mekong of Wolf Warriors" replaced "Operation Wolf Warrior" as soon as it was released.
The box office is soaring around the world, of course, some people say that "Transformers 2" is becoming more and more on par with Hollywood movies, and there are fewer and fewer domestic characteristics.
It's just that all this doesn't matter in front of the box office of breaking 1 billion Chinese dollars in China and breaking 250 million US dollars in North America.
In the summer season, this year's domestic film protection month disappeared, and was replaced by the invasion of a large number of Hollywood blockbusters.
However, no one expected that the final result would be like this.
There is only one winner in the end, and that is Dianjin Film and Television, two films, which cut down more than 2 billion Chinese yuan at the domestic box office and dominated the entire summer file.
Not only did Hollywood blockbusters sink into the sand, but domestic film companies were also miserable.
But the domestic audience has a feeling of raising their eyebrows, originally thinking that after this year's domestic film protection month disappears, the summer file will become the back garden of Hollywood movies.
The fact is that many domestic blockbusters have avoided Hollywood blockbusters and have been rescheduled, but I didn't expect that just one and 2 movies directly took down many Hollywood blockbusters.
This time, there was no off-the-board move or anything like that, it was all a frontal hard bar, but the result was so enjoyable.
If the sweep of "Transformers 2" was expected, then "Operation Mekong of Wolf Warriors" did indeed put a satellite.
It can be said that with these two movies, it is enough for Dianjin Film and Television to be crowned the king of film and television companies in China.
Although compared to the quantity, the number of movies shot by Dianjin Film and Television every year is not large, but the production of Dianjin must be a high-quality product, or the production of Ye Qiu must be a high-quality product, but it has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
With only a very small number of movies, it can beat the major film and television giants in the country in terms of box office revenue, so awesome, it is the only one in China, and there is no other branch.
However, with the sweep of "Wolf Warrior" and "Transformers 2", which are gradually coming to an end, many people feel a little sorry for Dianjin Film and Television in the last period of the summer file.
Because if Dianjin Film and Television can release another movie like "Operation Wolf Warrior: Mekong" or "Transformers 2" at the end of the summer file, then such a first will undoubtedly have more weight.
But in the last two weeks of August, in the case of Hollywood movies and domestic films, Dianjin Film and Television only came up with a low-budget romance film.
Although there have always been many such films, few of them can compare with those big productions.
Therefore, few people are optimistic that "You at the Same Table" will be able to break out of the encirclement in the end, even with the aura of the previous "Wolf Warrior: Operation Mekong" and "Transformers 2", but the theme and cost are still the reasons why everyone is not optimistic.
Just look at the production cost of the film released in August.
Dongying Group: The production cost of the action movie "Rogue Groups" is 200 million.
Xuanhuang Film and Television: The epic blockbuster "Qin Feng", cost 250 million.
Zhongyi Film and Television: The magical adventure film "Nine Dragons Tomb" costs 160 million.
......
And the cost of "You at the Same Table" is only less than 50 million Chinese dollars, most of which are actors' salaries.
In everyone's opinion, maybe "You at the Same Table" will perform well among similar movies, but compared with those blockbusters that have moved more than 100 million turns, it is still a little weak.
Of course, there are lessons from the past, so most people are still on the sidelines, after all, it is not uncommon for small-budget movies to counterattack.
And don't forget that "You at the Same Table" is said to be based on Ye Qiu's own real experience, which in itself is a huge gimmick.
Although Ye Qiu is not a star or a director now, his fame and influence are incomparable to any director star.
The first to make efforts is Xuanhuang Film and Television's "Qin Feng", this epic blockbuster can be regarded as a full of sincerity, a magnificent scene, the star lineup of the two major actors and two major flowers, and as soon as it was released, it took over the box office champion of "Transformers 2" in the third week of release.
Then there is Zhongyi's "Nine Dragons Tomb", a tomb robbery adventure blockbuster adapted from a well-known Internet adaptation, which also performed well, although it was slightly weaker than "Qin Feng" at the box office, but the reputation was excellent, and it was called the best tomb robbery adventure film after the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series of movies.
At this time, "You at the Table" was released.
"You at the Same Table" doesn't have any big scenes, and the starring role is not an actor or actress, Yang Fei, the heroine, if it weren't for her relationship with Ye Qiu, not many people would know about it at all.
Her acting skills are also a little jerky, although the actor is a popular student, but he can't compare with the appeal of those veteran actors.
In the scorching summer, among all kinds of blockbusters that make people's blood boil, "You at the Table" is like a clear spring, it has no big scenes, and there is nothing that makes people's blood boil.
In the first week after the release of "You at the Table", the weekly box office ranked third, but it set off a nostalgic storm on the Internet.
About youth, about first love, about ignorant love, about those good memories that have passed, are popular on the Internet.
As a result, in the second week, "You at the Same Table" staged a Jedi counterattack with the fermentation of word-of-mouth, and successfully topped the box office champion of the week.
It really surprised countless people.
At this time, East Film Group's "Amazing Rogue Group" was released.
However, the outrageous box office trend of "You at the Table" has been stable at the box office, but the three major film and television giants have been blinded.
Compared with the commercial popcorn blockbusters of the major movie giants, film critics obviously prefer "You at the Table", and the Internet is full of nostalgia for the green years.
Many media exclaimed that "You at the Table" is the brightest movie in this summer's file, because this movie is easy to imitate, but the audience is extremely wide, and the probability of success is higher than that of other films such as "Wolf Warrior", such as "Transformers" and so on.
Because this movie has successfully sparked a nostalgic craze.
This is reflected on the Internet, that is, during the release of "You at the Same Table", the campus on the Internet suddenly became popular, and some older campus TV series, movies, and on-demand rates also suddenly increased dramatically.
