Chapter 68: Position in the Circle
In fact, the box office of "Rushing to the Sky Tower" and "Five Poison Gates" in the same period is not comparable, and it cannot be simply compared. After all www.biquge.info when the number of theaters in "Five Poisons" rose to 4,500, it was not the first weekend at all, and there was no way to rush the weekend box office too high. That's a special situation, and now "Rushing to the Sky" is the normal release process. The box office on the opening day is so bright, and the total box office is indeed worth looking forward to.
However, Zhou Yi will not be carried away by the dazzling opening day box office figures.
He knows very well that this kind of box office is still far from a really strong film.
Like films such as "King Kong Gourd Baby", "Eight Hundred Scholars of Langya Mountain", and "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace" released in the first half of the year, the box office of which one did not far exceed this number on the first day. It can only be said that for a small-budget film, this box office figure is quite impressive, but that's about it. If you take off the hat of a small-cost film, such a result is not so eye-catching, it can only be regarded as good.
is a real big-budget film, and there are cases where the box office of a single day and a single museum exceeds 20,000.
Zhengdong must continue to work hard and not slack off, so that it can continue to make breakthroughs.
Like the big production of Shui Yuexun in the same schedule, "Thunderbolt Baby" opened on a large scale in 5,520 theaters across the country, according to the news from Yousheng, the box office of 82.38 million yuan was directly collected on the National Day, which simply swept everything, which was terrifying.
The box office of a single museum in a single day not only exceeded 10,000, but also 14,900 yuan for a single museum, which is indeed super powerful.
According to the calculation of this Thursday's box office, the box office in the days after the National Day can be roughly estimated.
It is estimated that the box office of "Thunderbolt Baby" in the first weekend is definitely 2.3-240 million Chinese yuan, which is the same level as the national blockbuster "King Kong Gourd Baby", and absolutely beats "Eight Hundred Scholars" and "Havoc in Heaven".
Shui Yuexun has exploded at the box office again, the little girl is very bold, whether it is Dongying or Huaxia, the box office will explode if she wants to, no one can stop it, she is not afraid of any competition, and she does not avoid any film, this is her absolute strength and status in the circle.
No wonder no one competes with her, who wants to run into this kind of box office bomb head-on.
If you touch "Eight Hundred Scholars" and "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace", there may still be a bit of luck, such as Xiao Xianrou's acting skills are not up to par, or the theme of the film is not the right way, you may take advantage, but when you touch the water and the moon, the kind of extremely exquisite appearance like porcelain plus invincible cute acting skills, coupled with super action scenes, it is really difficult to have a fluke. Shui Yuexun became famous at a young age, and has acted until now, from a cute Lori to a national girl, from a Dongying idol to an East Asian superstar, she is young, but she is not a small flower in the industry, she is a real top superstar, and she is tied with the top Hua Dan.
This is the power of big companies and big productions, big directors and top Hua Dan superstars.
Even the big-budget films produced by the six major Chinese companies dare not touch it easily.
Of course, in this film, Zhou Yi also made a little effort and made some contributions, which cannot be erased.
learned about Shui Yuexun's box office data from Xi Wei, Zhou Yi was indeed under pressure, the little girl was too fierce. At least in the film and television industry, Shui Yuexun can definitely make waves, and she is no longer the poor little Lori back then.
Tang Yan is very envious, Shui Yuexun is the heroine's monoclonal antibody box office, it is really amazing to get this kind of result!
Think about yourself, although everyone sleeps together and usually gets along without pressure, Shui Yuexun is a cute girl, always looking cute, but Tang Yan doesn't want to lose, I really don't know when I will have this kind of achievement.
This kind of monoclonal antibody's ability to box office is terrifying when you think about it.
In the words of producer Zhang, Shui Yuexun is a cash cow, and it is enough to describe it in these three words, others can only envy it.
This kind of actress is not something that ordinary companies can have at all, don't be delusional.
Who dares to despise Shui Yuexun, the box office will definitely be suppressed miserably in the same period.
However, Zhouyi Future also has this trend.
At least that's what Producer Zhang thinks.
Director Wan also very much agrees with this statement.
Under the pressure of Shui Yuexun's blockbuster, Zhou Yi's "Rushing Tower" competed on the same stage, and with the attitude of a small-budget film, it can still get a single-day box office of 40 million Chinese yuan, which is already quite good. Of course, this has something to do with the fact that Yousheng did not suppress Zhengdong, but promoted the joint screening, which ensured the box office of Zhengdong's films, otherwise he might not be able to get this figure.
Many people may feel that the box office gap is too big.
The difference in the number of theaters is about 1,000, but the single-day box office gap is nearly double, which is a gap of 40 million and 80 million.
In fact, there is definitely not such a huge gap in the attendance rate of the two films.
There are many factors that contribute to the difference in the box office between the two films.
This is a normal phenomenon caused by the overall power disparity.
First of all, in addition to the gap of 1,000 theaters, there is also a gap in ticket prices. The ticket price of a small-budget film will be a cut lower than that of a large-scale production, and the gap between the midnight show and the morning show may not be obvious, but there is definitely a significant gap between the afternoon show and the evening show, and the ticket price of the afternoon show is generally two Chinese dollars lower, and the evening show may be three Chinese dollars lower. This gap in ticket prices will naturally be reflected at the box office.
If it weren't for the slightly lower ticket price of a small-budget film, it is estimated that "Rushing to the Sky Tower" would have exceeded 10,000 at the box office in a single day, but this is no way.
And that's not the main factor in the box office gap.
Don't look at the number of theaters is only 1,000, but the number of screens given by each theater is definitely different, maybe each theater gives "Breaking Baby" two or three screens, and the high can reach four screens, but "Soaring Tower" each has only one or two screens, and in the base camp Taj Cinemas, at most three screens can reach the sky. If the attendance of the two films is about the same, of course, there will be a huge gap at the box office.
The number of screens is the main factor affecting the box office.
But this is normal.
Yousheng is one of the six major in China, occupying natural advantages and rich resources, and will definitely be able to get more theater resources and the number of screens.
Zhengdong is a second-tier emerging company, which is much worse in this regard, and it is not the same day, and it cannot compete at all.
It's a matter of substance, no way.
And "Breaking Bad" is a big production, with a famous director superstar, and it deserves such a number of screens.
In this regard, "Rushing Tower" is also much worse.
In fact, the theater line is very reasonable in this arrangement, people are not stupid, and there are strict rules on how to arrange films. In terms of battery life, Shui Yuexun's "Thunderbolt Baby" is definitely far better than "Rushing to the Sky", after all, it is a big production. Now that it has just been released, the main fans are action movie fans, and they will basically watch both films, and there is not much difference on a single screen, but if you watch it again in a few weeks, the gap between the single theater will be obvious.
Now the situation is indeed reasonable.
Endurance is an urgent problem to be solved in Zhengdong, and if it can't be solved, the box office will not be able to reach one billion yuan.
I don't know how many second-tier companies are stuck here, so it's called the "billion mark"!
can monoclonally resist a billion box office, is a superstar.
Zhou Yi understands this very well, for small-cost films, Zhengdong is almost at the top.
The box office of 500 million is almost the ceiling of small-budget films.
Of course, there are exceptions in the industry, but they are extremely rare special cases and cannot be compared. For example, Gu Wanting came out of nowhere at the beginning of the year, relying on "Mom Loves Me Again" to sink "Titanic", winning more than 2 billion yuan at the domestic box office, casting the myth of the rise of young female directors against the sky. It was indeed a miracle, and it could never be replicated.
If it can be replicated, it will not be a miracle.
Although Gu Wanting is now a big director in the industry, if she wants to do it again, she can't copy it, it's simply a destiny destined by God, who has what to do? can't say that it was the pinnacle of her directorial career, after all, she has many good films, but that kind of box office miracle is probably the peak of her life.
Just like Gu Wanting's husband Xu Qianye, director Xu Qianye, it is no problem to crush his wife at the total box office in his career, but the box office of a single film just can't be overpowered. People can stand up with a film and overpower her husband's limelight, Director Xu just has no way.
This is a joke in the industry, and it is an interesting story of their husband and wife. Some fans feel that the director's status represents the family status, and Xu Qianye's family status is definitely not as good as his wife. Compare the box office of a single film, and he has no way at all.
Zhou Yi is now an insider, and he usually has rumors about these anecdotes.
But he wouldn't force himself to do some miracle, it really couldn't be.
Even if you have memories of your past life, it's hard to do this kind of thing.
Miracles are all caused by luck, not just memory.
If it weren't for the fact that "Titanic" touched the sensitive nerves of a group of Chinese chauvinists, it is not certain whether "Mom Loves Me Again" could achieve such a box office. Although there is no government charter, it is the result of a large number of fans watching the movie repeatedly.
If there is no luck, how can that happen?
The film that exploded in the previous life, if it is brought to this life, it will definitely explode? Shiyi time shifts, it's really not necessarily.
Zhou Yi naturally didn't think much about it.
In fact, he was very satisfied.
Even if "Rushing to the Sky Tower" changes schedules and is not suppressed by "Thunderbolt Jiaowa", but without the support of Yousheng, it will definitely be suppressed by other films and suppressed by other companies, and the situation may be worse, and it will not be able to get better treatment. This kind of small-budget film, the number of theaters and screens that can be obtained at any time is the limit, it's time to snicker. In this case, if the film can still break 10,000 at the box office in a single theater, or even exceed one cut, the theater side will definitely increase the number of screens, but this is too difficult to do. Even today's "Rushing Tower" can't do it.
Zhou Yi is very clear about these situations, what else is not satisfied? Of course, if "Rushing to the Sky" continues to be successful, and the box office will be a big hit in the end, and when the third film is released, the treatment will definitely be better and it will win more respect.
The status in the circle can only rely on the accumulation of box office results bit by bit, and it is useless to be anxious.
As long as it continues to be successful, its status in the circle will definitely get higher and higher.
Shui Yuexun's status in the circle has also been accumulated over the years.
No one succeeds for nothing.
Zhou Yigang has acted in two films, and the current situation is already very good, and he himself understands it very well.
The dubbing work in the morning ended quickly, and there was only half a day of dubbing work today, and at noon the Zhou Yi brothers and sisters had to rush back to the film academy to prepare for the film screening in the afternoon. Of course, he had to be punctual on such an important occasion.
In fact, Tang Yan didn't have to come back to participate, but Zhou Yi didn't want to tire her sister and let her rest for half a day. The dubbing work has been going well recently, although there are many roles for the male and female protagonists, but the holidays will definitely be completed, so there is no need to rush too much.
By the time they returned to the academy, Director Zhao had already led the main creative team and arrived in advance, and the screening copy was also delivered, and even the spare copy was available.
Everything is ready and there are no problems.
In order to show its own image in front of Yanying students, Zhengdong Pictures attaches great importance to this film screening and absolutely does not allow any mistakes.
