Chapter 263: Crushing all the way
On August 10, the Hollywood animated blockbuster "The Smurfs", the largest 3D animation giant in Columbia's history, officially landed in the mainland film market.
Due to the release of "The Smurfs", the filming of "Wolf Warrior" was once again compressed, and only 35% remained.
Although it is not as good as more than 50% of the first release, the movie has been in theaters for ten days now, and it has long passed the period of box office concentrated explosion.
Following the harvest of 170 million in the first seven days of the first week, the 8th, 9th, and 4th received 90 million, 80 million, and 60 million respectively, with a total box office of 1.3 billion in the ten days of release, becoming the runner-up in the Chinese film market second only to "Zhao Zilong".
If this trend continues, at most this weekend will be able to break the record of domestic film history.
Within two years, all three films broke records, and Li Mu's reputation in China rose to a new level again.
The vast majority of audiences have already called Li Mu the first director in China and the king of commercial directors, after all, Feng Xiaogang, who ranks second in terms of box office alone, is only 3 billion, and now Li Mu's total personal box office has exceeded 4 billion.
However, because the director of "Wolf Warrior" wrote Wu Jin's name, Li Mu just hung the name of a producer, and many people thought that the results of this movie should not be pressed on Li Mu's head, but instead touted Wu Jin.
In this regard, Li Mu only had a sentence of MMP in his heart and didn't say it, you didn't believe it when the old paper said that Wu Jin was the director, but now the box office is a big hit and I'm pulling this again.
Li Mu was just complaining in his heart, and besides, the two of them shot this movie together, and one person filmed half of it.
Li Mu didn't refute, because they happened to do themselves a big favor, after they blew it like this, plus Li Mu didn't say anything, and asked Wu Jin and the crew not to refute, it was regarded as a tacit acquiescence.
Coupled with the tidbits that Li Mu deliberately found some reporters to break the news about Wu Jin's filming on the set, the audience slowly accepted the fact that Wu Jin was the director.
The media is also very happy about this, it is no longer news that Li Mu's movie exploded, on the contrary, Wu Jin, a third-tier star, made a record-breaking movie is the real big news.
For a while, there were a lot fewer reporters and paparazzi squatting downstairs in the company, and they all ran after Wu Jin all over the country.
In addition to "Wolf Warrior", the just-released "Smurfs" is obviously sorry for its blockbuster title, with a box office of only 17 million on the first day.
This achievement may have been good three years ago, but today, when the domestic film market explodes, it can't make a little wave at all.
After the eleventh and twelfth days, because of the approaching weekend, the box office of several movies increased.
In the past two days, "Wolf Warrior" received 70 million and 80 million respectively, with a total box office of 145 million.
"The Smurfs" grossed 53 million in three days after its release.
"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part II)" won 180 million mainland box office in nine days after its release.
On August 13th, the summer file ushered in the last two Hollywood blockbusters "Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol" and the superhero "Captain of the United States".
Up to now, the domestic film market has ushered in the highest peak of movie viewing, with five blockbusters being released at the same time, and the film schedule has become extremely crowded.
The release of these two blockbusters saved the schedule of other films for the first time.
But fortunately, there are basically only these five movies on the market now, and there are no other movies to share the profits.
Because the reputation of "Wolf Warrior" is very strong, the attendance rate and average number of people per game are maintained at a very high number, and the film schedule has not decreased too much, and there is still a deviation of 28%, which is the first of the five films.
"Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol" is scheduled for 25%, second only to "Wolf Warrior", and the theater chain is still very optimistic about this movie, after all, this is Tom's fourth time playing Ethan Hunt, and the box office has a certain guarantee.
And "Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol" was released simultaneously around the world as early as July, and the global box office has exceeded 600 million yuan so far, becoming the highest-grossing film in the series.
"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part II)", "Captain Rice", and "The Smurfs" are scheduled for 18 percent, 15 percent, and 14 percent respectively.
The schedule of these five films accounted for 98 percent, and only a few films were allocated to other small-budget films, and they didn't even drink the soup.
And the facts have also proved that other small-budget movies, let alone take a sip of soup, at most they will follow behind and eat ashes.
On August 13, "Mission Impossible 4: The Ghost Protocol" lived up to expectations and won the first-day box office of 60 million, becoming the runner-up at the box office on the same day, and also the best opening result among the four Hollywood blockbusters in August.
And the daily box office champion is undoubtedly still dominated by "Wolf Warrior".
Although the release of these two movies had an impact on "Wolf Warrior", it still continued to monopolize the box office champion with a score of 100 million.
Thirteen days after its release, the total box office of "Wolf Warrior" was 1.56 billion, successfully breaking the box office record set by "Zhao Zilong" and becoming the new domestic film box office champion.
At this time, less than a year has passed since "Zhao Zilong" broke the record.
Another released movie, the Marvel superhero "Captain Rice", suffered a Waterloo, and only received 6 million at the box office on the day of its release.
With Huaxia's superheroes, who still looks at Captain Mi at this time, they are all very powerful special forces, why don't they support their own people.
More than halfway through the summer season, August, which was originally considered the most competitive, passed half uneventfully.
People suddenly found that the mainland film market was still dominated by "Wolf Warrior" in the past ten days, and the four so-called blockbusters did not affect it at all, at most it was a small stone on the way forward, and it was directly pressed over without even lifting its feet.
And the domestic filmmakers and audiences who were originally looking forward to a tragic battle suddenly found that the so-called Hollywood blockbusters were so vulnerable in front of domestic blockbusters, and none of the four blockbusters could stop a domestic movie.
As time passed slowly, August gradually came to an end, and the summer vacation came to an end.
As soon as the box office comes out every day, there will be news that praises the merits and virtues, and there is no duplicate every day.
The audience saw that domestic movies were so powerful, and they also supported their own movies more and more, so that "Wolf Warrior" still maintained a stable trend in the second half of the month, without an obvious decline.
