Chapter 755: The Battle of Old Enemies
Although "Tomb Robbery Notes" is like a rainbow, "Transformers 4" is there, and it is not vegetarian, and it is impossible to overwhelm too much at once, so on the first day, "Tomb Robbery" was only 29% of the film, and it has not yet exceeded 30%, which is only two percentage points more than "Transformers 4", which is rare for blockbusters of this level, but who let it meet "Transformers 4".
At the beginning of the release, the topicality and high box office of the movie largely relied on the super popularity of the original novel, and after the release, with the spread of good word-of-mouth, those viewers who were waiting and watching flocked to the theater one by one, adding fuel to the popularity of "Tomb Robbery".
The premiere week lasted for four days, plus the screening, and won a total of 430 million box office, an average of more than 100 million a day, which killed the box office score of 4.01 in the first four days of "Transformers 3", ranking third in mainland film history, ranking first among Chinese films after "Change 4" and "Titanic 3D"!
"Tomb Robbery Notes" won a good start, ranking first at the box office in the first week, pressing 310 million "Change 4", but "Change 4" can still have such results in the third week, which is really terrifying, and now the cumulative amount is nearly 1.7 billion, and if there is no "Tomb Robbery", it is still very likely to hit 2 billion.
What is surprising is that Deng Chao's "Breakup Master" has now reached a high box office of 500 million, as a directorial debut, Deng Chao is undoubtedly very successful, "Old Boy" has just exceeded 200 million at the box office in two weeks, and this result is definitely not bad. The final box office is expected to hit 250 million, which can be regarded as a successful small fight, but the reputation of these two comedies is not very good. More often than not, their success is attributed to coincidence.
In the eyes of many people, the success of "Tomb Robbery" relies on real skills, solid scripts, suspenseful plot settings, excellent performances of actors, friendship and love, there is always a favorite for you, and the most important thing is makeup and special effects. The scenes built with huge sums of money and the technology in the digital field make "Notes on Tomb Robbery" completely capable of competing with Hollywood blockbusters without touching the bottom line of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. "Notes on Tomb Robbery" led the audience to complete a unique journey of tomb robbing, which also made China Film and Wanda full of confidence in their "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" plan, especially Wanda, which united Huayi and Light. and invited Chen Kun, Huang Bo, and Shu Qi to star. The gimmick is no worse than "Notes on Tomb Robbery".
In the second week of the release of "Tomb Robbery", the gap between "Transformers 4" and "Transformers 4" began to be widened, the summer file is always lively, there will be a super hit film every week, this week's "Small Times 3" surprised many people, in the case of the second box office of only 300 million and the reputation is super poor, the box office of the film exceeded 310 million in the first week of its release for four days, fortunately, "Tomb Robbery" accounted for a lot of 3D films of "Change 4". Only then did he stabilize his position and collect another 400 million. The box office has accumulated to 830 million in two weeks! There is no suspense to break 1 billion. The combat effectiveness of "Change 4", which has entered the fourth week, is still amazing, and the total box office has exceeded 1.8 billion, if the key is not postponed, it will be impossible to hit 2 billion.
The hot box office of "Small Times 3" directly made "After the End" a week later the focus of public opinion, after all, the relationship between Xiaosi and Han Han is too unusual, and people have long wanted to see the competition between the two in the film field.
Since Han Han started making this movie, it was inevitable to be compared with the "Small Times" series, He Mu felt that there must be no doubt that the box office of "After the End" was higher than that of "Small Times 3", the starring Feng Shaofeng is now in the limelight, plus He Mu's wonderful cameo as a super celebrity, and Pu Shu sang the theme song, of course, the biggest attraction of this movie is Han Han, although his life is controversial, but his works and thoughts have indeed influenced a generation, and he puts away his edge after getting married and having children. The more wise Han Han is also increasingly recognized by the mainstream media.
It was already the end of July when He Mu came down from the plateau, and he came out this time to promote the movie "The Ladder of Love", as early as the middle of the month, director Yu Feihong and actress Li Bingbing began to promote this movie, until He Mu returned to the team, the power of publicity began to increase.
The actor of this movie, He Mu, became the first Chinese Berlin actor with this movie, which is of great significance, and the heroine Li Bingbing's "Change 4" has now ended with 1.87 billion at the mainland box office, and it is booming in Hollywood, these two now strong male and female stars co-starred in such a touching story, but unfortunately this is a love movie, not as easy to make box office as magic, comedy, and youth films, and the top few films on the mainland box office list have never been love movies. So many people are not very optimistic about the box office of this movie, three or four billion is in the sky, and there are not a few who guess two or three billion, after all, this is just a literary and artistic romance film, and the watchability should not be too strong in many people's minds.
However, the media attention is not bad at all, and the discussion on the Internet is also very enthusiastic, with the status and influence of He Mu Li Bingbing, he can already ignore the movie genre, and it coincides with the Qixi Festival, which is very suitable for the love atmosphere, once this kind of love movie touches the hearts of female audiences, it is equivalent to robbing their wallets, and the dead and alive young women who are moved by love don't mind pulling their boyfriends to watch it a few more times.
Because the crew of "The Dust Settles" has not yet been completed, He Mu has only been released for a week, and he will go back to continue filming after he is busy, and it is already very generous to let him come out to promote the movie for a week, after all, without him as the male lead, the progress of the film will be very slow, Director Chen has to shoot some scenery or guide the supporting documentary of "The Dust Settles", which can be sold for money in the future.
He Mu is busy these days, just to get more attention for "The Ladder of Love" in a limited time, there are seven or eight talk shows alone, and he does attach importance to this movie, because this movie has made him a huge success and honor in the profession of an actor, although the box office of the "Zi Bu Yu" series is high, but the core is the heroine Mo Yu, he has little room for the male number one, talking about his series of masterpieces, people's impression of him is more staying, "This is directed by He Mu" 。 At the same time, the "Cold Heart" series is a representative work of assembly line commercial films, although Fan Wei has gained a lot of box office in the world, which has greatly spread He Mu's international popularity, but the selling point is more He Mu's playing level, and the acting focus is not much, so "The Ladder of Love" has become the work that can best reflect his personal acting skills in recent years, and it is his work that justifies his identity as an actor.
"The Ladder of Love" was released on Friday on August 1, followed by the Qixi Festival on August 2nd, and the most famous in the same schedule is the martial arts special effects blockbuster "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch", just as "The Ladder of Love" will be compared with "Small Times 3", "The Ladder of Love" and "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" are also often compared together, they are compared together not because the two directors have anything to do with each other, but because the actor of one is He Mu, the other is Huang Xiaoming, the heroine of one is Li Bingbing, and the other is Zhu Bingbing, It's another battle of old enemies.
