In fact, many people have expectations for Shen Lin's "Touching the Golden Captain".

Shen Lin's last commercial work was "Operation Mekong", although the reputation is not bad and it has exploded the box office market, but after all, it is a work with the main theme, and I always feel that something is missing.

Although the subsequent "Carol" won numerous awards and its box office performance was not too bad, it was a pure feature film and there was nothing comparable to it.

In other words, since "Super Body", Shen Lin has not had a pure commercial film for two years.

"Touching the Golden Captain" itself is adapted from his famous work "Notes on Tomb Robbery", the original work has a lot of fans, plus a series of publicity, and the actor ration is also very suitable, whether it is the three brothers of "The Pretender" or Peng Yuyan, including Di Lire, there are many fans who have all kinds of support.

What about "I Am Not Pan Jinlian"?

Fan Bingbing!

The name alone gives people a sense of immediacy of a bad movie!

There is no comparison at all!

Although the director of the latter is Feng Xiaogang, "Pan Jinlian" did not win the Cannes Palme d'Or, let alone was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Venice International Film Festival.

Although Fan Bingbing relied on this film to win the queen of the San Sebastian International Film Festival, the San Sebastian International Film Festival does not belong to the top three in Europe after all, just like Feng Xiaogang won the Cairo International Film Festival Pyramid Award with "A Sigh", although it is not a pheasant award, but it is still a little worse than Cannes, Venice, and Berlin.

To put it bluntly, the most common certification in China, Feng Xiaogang can't shoot Shen Lin!

Not to mention box office appeal.

Shen Lin is recognized as the director with the most box office appeal, and from his debut to the present, the global cumulative box office of his films has already exceeded 20 billion yuan!

There are few people in China who can compare with him, and it is obvious that Feng Xiaogang is not among these people!

Even so, the cinema chain is also a double insurance, except for Wanda, which gave nearly 50% of the film schedule as soon as it came up, and the other theater chains are almost 30%, and the overall film schedule is basically the same as "Pan Jinlian".

After all, the topic of "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" is now high.

It was a big surprise to take it.

The box office of "Touching the Golden Captain" reached 260 million on the first day, setting a record for the first-day box office of domestic films, while "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" was squeezed and fell off a cliff, and the box office on Sunday fell by 60% compared to the box office on Saturday!

What's even more amazing is that the first-day box office of "Captain Touching Gold" in North America also reached $33 million!

Coupled with the accumulation of South Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia, and some places in Europe, the global box office of "Touching the Golden Captain" exceeded 100 million US dollars on the first day!

What follows is a series of box office record journeys.

On November 21st, 22nd, 23rd, and 24th, on weekdays, "Touching the Golden Captain" still maintained the ability to absorb gold at the box office of more than 200 million in a single day.

On November 25th, "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" premiered in the mainland, and on the same day, it snatched 130 million yuan at the box office with 28% of the film schedule, and also made the box office of "Captain Touching Gold" fall below 200 million for the first time, and the daily revenue was only 170 million on the same day.

However, in the next two weekends, the box office of "Touching the Golden Captain" did not decrease but increased, and even won 340 million at the box office on Saturday, November 26, almost breaking the single-day box office record set by "The Mermaid".

On November 27th, "Touching the Golden Captain" was released for a week, and the single-day box office was reported to be 240 million, and the cumulative box office reached 1.94 billion!

In North America, in the first week of release, the cumulative box office of "Touching the Golden Captain" reached $160 million;

In other regions, the cumulative box office reached about 60 million US dollars, of which Europe contributed 20 million US dollars, South Korea and Japan contributed 30 million US dollars;

The global box office was released in the first week, 500 million US dollars!

The key is that the reputation of the movie itself is very good, with an IMDB score of 88 points and a freshness of 99% on Rotten Tomatoes.

The evaluation of "Touching the Golden Captain" on the domestic professional movie website is not bad, Douban gave 8.2 points, Time.com also gave 8.8 points, and Maoyan Movie gave a jaw-dropping 9.9 points!

Optimistically, the global box office of "Touching the Golden Captain" is likely to reach more than 1.5 billion US dollars, no matter how pessimistic it is, the global box office of "The Golden Captain" will definitely break one billion after its release!

There is no doubt that "Captain Touching Gold" has succeeded, and the "Tomb Robbery Notes" series has officially been announced!

Compared with the peerless ride of "Touching the Golden Captain", "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" not only does not compare with the box office, but also can't even compare with a fraction, and the number of films has also been cut to only about 10%.

To tell the truth, if it weren't for the fact that the director of "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" was Feng Xiaogang, it would have been underlined!

Especially after the release of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" on November 25.

The two films occupy more than 90% of the market.

Since the release of "Touching the Golden Captain", the box office of "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" has fallen off a cliff.

On November 20th, on the day of the premiere of "Touching the Golden Captain", "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" finally got a box office score of more than 30 million, and in the next five working days, the box office of "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" did not exceed 10 million, and the worst thing was on November 25, on the day of the release of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", the market was as high as 360 million, but "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" only had 3 million box office on the same day!

The crushing box office ratio is desperate!

The king of "I'm Not Pan Jinlian" is gone, and Feng Xiaogang can't count on it, so I can only count on the Hollywood blockbuster "Fantastic Beasts" to win back a city, but unfortunately, the expressiveness of the film in both the North American market and the overseas market has not been awesome since then, although "Fantastic Beasts" is a spin-off series of "Harry Potter", but it is not "Harry Potter" after all!

The North American box office performance of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" did not even surpass that of "Captain Touching Gold"!

Although the former was released two days earlier than the latter, it was useless.

The mature movie-going market in North America determines that popcorn movies with high reputation will have more market performance than movies that are not liked by the public.

As of November 27th, the cumulative box office of "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" can exceed 240 million, which is far from the guaranteed amount of 500 million, according to the current box office performance, the final box office of "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" can only reach 280 million at most, and Sparkle Roll lost miserably this time!

As for the box office prediction of "Touching the Golden Captain", many bold people have already given expectations for a box office of 5 billion.

Even the most conservative estimates are more than 3.5 billion.

The first week was close to 2 billion, as long as nothing went wrong, the total box office exceeded 3.5 billion, which is appropriate!

At the beginning, the mermaid did not hang like this.

Shen Lin knows very well that the box office of "Touching the Golden Captain" cannot exceed 5 billion, according to his estimates, it can stump the box office of 4 billion at most, and it is certain that it will surpass "The Mermaid".

After all, there is still "The Great Wall" with an investment of more than one billion yuan waiting to be released, no matter what the movie looks like, a large number of stars will join the association to divide most of the film schedule.

Compared with the previous movie, Shen Lin deliberately used IMX to shoot this time, and originally wanted to convert to 3D mode, but once it was converted to 3D, the picture became slightly blurry, in order to present a better effect in the movie, Shen Lin still did not turn to 3D.

However, he has already made up his mind that the next eight parts must be in 3D mode.

After all, 3D is king nowadays, and it can make more money!
