Chapter 639
Half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and "Terminator" has been in theaters for a month at this time, and the cumulative box office has exceeded 55 million US dollars. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info This is already much better than the North American ticket distribution in Chen Jie's memory. However, the attendance rate of "Terminator" has dropped a lot in the past two days, but it can still remain above 50%. Speaking of which, the decline in attendance of "The Terminator" has a little bit to do with Longteng Pictures,Situ Haojie never thought that an all-Chinese movie would achieve such a good box office。 If I knew that "Baby Zhiduoxing" was so popular,Situ Haojie would not let his company's two movies fight。
Since the establishment of Chinatown Cinemas was announced a week ago, the movie "Baby Wisdom Multi-Star" has finally been released in the United States as the opening drama of Chinatown Cinemas.
A few days before the release of "Baby Zhiduoxing", there was nothing, and the attendance rate only remained at about 70%. This is only an intermediate level for a decent movie, but that changed just two days ago. There are a lot of foreigners in the Chinatown theater chain who deliberately came to watch the finale of "Baby Wisdom and Stars". This has skyrocketed the film's attendance. At the same time, it also led to a lot of drops in the attendance rate of "Terminator", and the attendance rate of nearly seventy percent fell to more than fifty percent at once. This situation makes Situ Haojie a little depressed while being happy。 After all, these two movies are written by Longteng, but one movie was shot by Longteng in Hong Kong, and the other movie was shot by Longteng in the United States.
The taste of beating himself up is definitely uncomfortable,Situ Haojie originally thought that most of the audiences who came to watch "Baby Zhiduoxing" should be Chinese,After all, this movie is full of Chinese,Even if it can attract the attention of some Americans, it won't be too much,It shouldn't affect the box office of "Terminator". But the result was really beyond his expectations. This makes Situ Haojie feel as if he gave himself a slap in the face。
Although depressed,But there are some things that still have to be done by Situ Haojie。 In this form, "The Terminator" may be released in a week or two at most. At that time, the box office will be more than 60 million US dollars at most. It won't go any higher. Situ Haojie was afraid that James Cameron would have any ideas,So I specially talked to James Cameron。 Fortunately, James Cameron didn't mind at this time,On the contrary, I saw that Situ Haojie was depressed and enlightened Situ Haojie。 This surprised Situ Haojie。
You must know that during the filming of "Terminator", there were many people who came to Situ Haojie to look up to James Cameron, saying that James Cameron was a tyrant. Situ Haojie also thought that James Cameron's temper was very bad. But that doesn't seem to be the case now.
What Situ Haojie didn't know was,Chen Jie had already greeted James Cameron before the release of "Baby Zhiduoxing"。 For this reason, he specially called James Cameron to his home, talked with James Cameron for a long time, and even came up with something that was very attractive to James Cameron. This calmed James Cameron's resentment.
Compared with Situ Haojie,Chen Jie can be said to have let go of everything during this time, and stayed by Zhao Yazhi's side all day long。 I'm in a mood to make a reservation.
Li Zhipeng's mood is similar to Chen Jie's, this Chinatown cinema line is indeed very successful, although a lot of money has been invested in the court for this reason, but I hear laughter from the cinema every day. This made Li Zhipeng feel that all the efforts were worth it. It's not just about making money. It's about being able to organize the bosses behind these movie theaters together, and the owners who can open movie theaters in Chinatown have some background. Organizing this group of people is definitely a force to be reckoned with, and it is too crucial to increase the influence of the Chinese.
A week later, "The Terminator" was finally drawn, and the cumulative box office just exceeded 60 million. Originally, according to Situ Haojie's expectations,Even if it is a painting, it should not be so fast,Especially at the box office, there is still a certain gap between what Situ Haojie expected。 But Situ Haojie can't do anything about it,Because he was fooled into the biggest box office machine of the year"Star Wars"The third part was released。
After the release of "Star Wars 3", the box office attendance of "Terminator" fell even more. In addition, "Baby Zhiduoxing" has indeed stolen a lot of audiences. So "Terminator" had to be drawn in advance. But fortunately, it didn't advance much.
After "Terminator" was drawn, it became a confrontation between the two movies "Baby Zhiduoxing" and "Star Wars 3". "Star Wars 3" surpassed "Baby Smart Star" at the box office in just ten days after its release, but even so, the attendance rate of "Baby Smart Star" has always been high. Basically, the field is guaranteed to be about 70%. Although the box office growth rate is not as fast as "Star Wars 3", everyone can see that this is because "Star Wars 3" has more screens than "Baby Wisdom and Stars". After all, "Star Wars 3" has nearly 1,500 screens! Although the Chinatown cinema chain claims to have seven or eight hundred movie theaters, a considerable number of them are under construction, and some are being acquired, and all the procedures have not been perfected. In fact, there are only more than 600 movie theaters.
The gap on the screen made the box office of "Star Wars 3" rise quickly, but it was not without flaws, and the box office rose and fell quickly. A month later, "Star Wars 3" grossed nearly $400 million, and "Baby Wisdom Star" also grossed nearly $200 million. Although there is still a lot of gap between the two movies at the box office, it is undeniable that the attendance rate of "Star Wars 3" is only a little more than 50% so far, while the attendance rate of the movie "Baby Wisdom and Stars" can still be maintained at about 60%. In addition to the support of many Chinese people for this movie, it also has a certain relationship with the theater chain. Of course, the most important thing is that the movie "Baby Zhiduoxing" is really exciting, especially for children, many children have watched it several times, but they still pester their parents from time to time to ask their parents to take them to watch this movie again.
Parents take their children to watch movies, and some snacks are always unavoidable, so the Chinatown Cinema Line has made a lot of money, which makes many movie theater owners envious. You must know that the reason why American theater companies pay such low dividends is because their main source of income is not movie tickets, but some consumption brought by the people who watch movies. The United States is different from the mainland, almost everyone will hold a bucket of popcorn and a glass of Coke as soon as they enter the theater. The benefits that these things bring to cinema companies are far higher than the sales of movie tickets.
