On May 3, Wuxia 2 - Rise of Heroes began to be released in the three East Asian countries.

Unlike in the past, this time the distributors of South Korea and Japan also chose to release it simultaneously, probably because of Yue Song's popularity and appeal, and the distributors of the two countries are quite confident in this.

And the performance of Wuxia 2 did not disappoint these people.

On the day of its premiere, the mainland box office of Wuxia 2 was 15 million, slightly higher than the first Wuxia film; In South Korea, it is 150,000 moviegoers, a decent number that is not good or bad; In Japan, it reached 350 million yen, setting a new single-day box office record for a Chinese film in Japan!

Because the influence of the martial arts first series is still there, coupled with the good market reputation, the media and film critics have also praised this movie - it's not impossible to say bad things, Yan Ershao is not an ornament, he thinks he can bear Yan Ershao, who would be willing to offend a Yanai for no reason for a movie?

In this case, the box office of Wuxia 2 in the mainland easily exceeded 100 million in the first week, reaching 118 million, although it did not surpass the box office record of 120 million in a single week set by the first series, but it still made a good start before the arrival of this year's summer file.

Compared with the Chinese mainland, the other two countries in East Asia are not inferior, with Japan's first-week box office of 1.3 billion and South Korea's first-week moviegoers of 1.2 million, both of which have met and exceeded the psychological expectations of distributors.

All of this has made Yue Song's popularity, which was already showing a blowout trend, further rise.

The first two parts of the martial arts series trilogy were big hits, making people full of hope for the third part as well. It also gave birth to many derivatives, and when Yue Song learned that a film and television company wanted to buy the TV version of martial arts, he agreed without hesitation.

It's all about making money anyway, and there's nothing wrong with making a little more.

It is foreseeable that in the future, a number of big bad movies in the name of "martial arts" will emerge in the Xiangjiang film industry, which is the best at imitation, and all kinds of shoddy "imitation shows" will also be staged one after another.

Yue Song is happy to see it, and he wishes that there would be more films imitating martial arts, as long as the theme is completely stinked, it can highlight the better quality of his martial arts trilogy. Maybe the box office of the third part will also usher in a more popular hit than now.

Meanwhile. The success of the martial arts series has also stimulated everyone in the circle to be red-eyed, in this era when it is almost extremely difficult to break 100 million at the box office, there is a hairy boy under the age of 20. The works filmed one after another exceeded 100 million. How can this make the most famous directors in the circle embarrassed?

Even Huo Yuanjia, who was released at the beginning of the year. With Jet Li's appeal, he has only achieved a box office of 100 million, just ask these bigwigs who have been in the circle for a long time. How can you look at Yue Song calmly?

Jet Li is quite open-minded, not only congratulated Yue Song on his good results, but also praised Yue Song during an interview with reporters, thinking that Yue Song is a veritable "little martial god", whether it is skill or life, he is first-class good!

The Kung Fu Emperor praised Xiao Wushen, on the one hand, because his state of mind cultivation in recent years has been far better than before, and he has completely ignored foreign things such as the box office, and more importantly, he deeply admires and agrees with Yue Song for throwing out 100 million in one go and founding a charitable foundation.

Even he himself is running for the most important cause in the second half of his life, and One Foundation can be said to be the spiritual sustenance of Jet Li in the second half of his life!

Compared with Yue Song's large-scale investment of 100 million yuan in one go, the Kung Fu Emperor chose the open fund establishment model, because in this country where there is no charity foundation, the road he has to take is even more difficult.

In terms of Huayi Brothers, the night banquet filmed by Feng Xiaogang in October last year was shut down in a low-key manner in January this year, and the current release schedule has also been filmed, and the premiere is on September 14.

is also a member of the "martial arts film", with the first two parts of the martial arts series in front of the jade, of course the Wang brothers do not want to be left behind, let alone be trampled under the feet of a young junior, Feng Xiaogang, who has always been a big mouth, did not shoot shortly, bluntly said that the night banquet is a real "martial arts blockbuster" with ideas and connotations, the implication is that the ideology and connotation of the martial arts trilogy are insufficient.

In the face of Feng Luoya's provocation, Yue Song only sent one sentence to the reporter: Yangchun Baixue, Xialiba people.

The reporter of the good thing sent this sentence word for word, and both inside and outside the entertainment industry were immediately interested in the secret war between the two.

Feng Xiaogang is the most well-known comedy director in China, whether this transformation can be successful, whether the night banquet can be a big hit, whether the box office results can overwhelm the martial arts series, and the in-depth comparison between the night banquet and the martial arts series, no matter which one is very interesting.

But Yue Song's answer was also very sharp, clearly dividing himself from Director Feng Da, and clearly disdainful of Feng Xiaogang's thoughts and connotations.

The two have never met in their lives, but they inexplicably have a grudge because of the movie, no matter what the two of them think in their hearts, the entire entertainment industry is lively because of this news, but it also invisibly hype Wuxia 2 hotter.

The supporters of the two were also divided into two factions, and they launched a battle on the Internet, and the forum post bar and other places were in full swing.

The most helpless people are the Huayi brothers, Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei, both brothers can only swallow the bitter fruit.

I was expecting to have the opportunity to cooperate with Xiaowu God once in the future, but now I have offended others to death, so don't think about cooperation or anything.

If the night banquet is successful, it will be fine, in case it hits the street, the two Wang brothers will inevitably carry a big burden, and they will not be able to slow down for a long time.

Of course, the pressure on Feng Xiaogang himself will only be greater than that of the two bosses, perhaps this is one of the reasons why he took the initiative to provoke the conflict, in short, Huayi's side is not very comfortable - offending the little martial god, how can the artists under the name of Huayi Brothers cooperate with others?

Bao Minxing was happy, smiling all day long, as happy as eating fairy fruit, and even bringing it made the atmosphere of the company a lot easier.

I have been busy promoting the release of Martial Arts 2 a while ago, and now I can finally relax now.

The big sale of Wuxia 2 means that Yue Song has made a lot of money, and it also means a celebration banquet and dividends, whether it is Yue Song's studio or Yihe Starlight, everyone is waiting for the money.

Today's Bao Minxing is full of pride in his original vision and vision, although he invested 200 million in one go, which caused unanimous ridicule and ridicule from people in the industry, but look at it now, who is not envious of her courage and vision?

As long as Yue Song continues to maintain such a high-speed operation and shoots several dramas a year, he will inevitably bring ten times the original investment to the company in the future!

After becoming famous in the entertainment industry in the name of Xiaowushen, Yue Song has several more titles and nicknames, such as "Money Cow", "Jinshan" or something, and some people even call him "Fortune Boy" in private.

It's right to give money, but if you want to say "boy", this is really a bit nonsense.

During the release of Wuxia 2, Yue Song not only had to deal with interviews with reporters from various media outlets, but also found time to set up an independent department dedicated to managing his fans - just like a company, he himself has a parent company under his name, and fan clubs in various countries are equivalent to branches.

Ordinary artists can not care about and don't pay attention to their fans in other countries, but Yue Song is different, he can count on making these fans become fanatics, and the management of fans is not generally important and attentive.

Not long after the box office statistics came out in the first week, Yue Song heard a rumor again, it is said that he is still filming the old man with golden armor all over the city, and he privately confessed in front of many actors that this drama is his most stressful drama, and he hopes that everyone must work together to make this drama achieve a good result.

said that it was a rumor, but in fact, it was quite credible, after all, Lao Mouzi was not Feng Luoya, and he did not have the habit of opening his mouth at every turn, so it can be seen that the pressure on Director Zhang is not necessarily small, maybe even greater than Feng Xiaogang.

After all, the city with gold armor costs a lot, and Wuji, which was released at the end of last year, was only 30 million US dollars, which has already attracted an exclamation in the industry, and the 60 million US dollars full of gold armor in the city can be called a super big production!

The greater the investment, the greater the pressure on the investor and the crew, which is almost inevitable, if the box office reputation is good, it will be fine, but once it hits the street, or is trampled under the feet of another drama, everyone will lose face.

The total box office of the martial arts trilogy in the mainland will be an extremely large number, which is also the pressure on Zhang Yimou, he will not treat these three films as three movies, with his self-esteem and pride, he will only treat the trilogy as a complete movie!

Yue Song shook his head boredly, and said in his heart that even if one is enough, he still wants to exceed the sum of the three? Director Zhang, you really think of yourself......

In the second week of the premiere of Wuxia 2 - Rise of Heroes, the mainland box office was 60 million, which was once again slightly lower than the record of the first series, with a total box office of 178 million.

At the same time, Xiangjiang also achieved a box office performance of 13 million, with a total box office of more than 25 million in two weeks, which indicates that among the top 10 box office in Xiangjiang this year, martial arts series will all be on the list!

In Japan, Wuxia 2 has a single-week box office of 1.1 billion, with a total box office of 2.4 billion yen; South Korea barely had just over 1 million moviegoers, with a total of 2.2 million moviegoers.

Although the box office performance of Wuxia 2 in the three East Asian countries is not as good as the first Wuxia series, relatively speaking, its results are still far better than the movies released in the same period, and it is one of the top box office bombs of the year.

The reason why it has regressed is only compared with the first martial arts series, not to mention that the gap between the two films is very small, and the reputation among the audience is also comparable, and the big sales of martial arts 3 - The rise of heroes have become undoubted.
