Looking at the excellent box office results of the two, Zhou Xingchi's face became more and more solemn, in fact, Feng Xiaogang and Lin Yuquan talked about "Kung Fu", and he couldn't help but feel jealous of the two.

Among the two, Feng Xiaogang's Feng's humorous comedy is very popular in the mainland, and Feng Xiaogang himself is definitely the only director with the most box office appeal in the mainland.

And Lin Yuquan, a young director, wears many hats like himself, and there is another Zhou Xingchi statement. And the most important thing is that his "Huo Yuanjia" is a kung fu movie that I also think is quite wonderful after watching it. If there is any movie in the Chinese film industry that can compete with its nonsensical comedy, it is only martial arts kung fu films.

"How was the attendance rate reported by the theater in the morning?" Zhou Xingchi asked the beautiful female secretary in front of him, unlike ordinary movies, this time "Kung Fu" has been screened in theaters since the morning.

"Although it is the first day of the premiere, whether it is the mainland or Hong Kong, the attendance rate is more than 80%, and the situation is very good!" The female secretary had a brisk voice and was clearly in a good mood.

Zhou Xingchi remained silent, took a deep look at the box office, and said calmly: "Pay close attention to the situation in the theater, and notify me in time if there is any abnormality." ”

His so-called anomaly refers to the decline in attendance, and the female secretary who has been with him for several years understands the meaning of his words, nods her head and says yes, and then leaves the office.

December 23rd is the day of the national premiere of "Kung Fu", which is definitely a joyous day for the long-awaited public, and countless people flock to the cinema on this day, ready to feast their eyes.

But for people in the film and television industry, this is also the first confrontation between the three films "No Thieves in the World", "Huo Yuanjia", and "Kung Fu", and countless people are waiting to see the head-on collision results of the three, and the three directors and their respective companies are of course the most nervous.

On the afternoon of December 24th, Lin Yuquan, Ning Hao, Xiao Yang, Ding Zhi, Xiao Ran, Fang Qing, and He Liwen all gathered together, nervously waiting for the box office results.

The same situation also happened in Huayi Brothers and Xinghui.

"Jingle bells."

A pleasant phone ringtones.

Ding Wei signaled to everyone, and then picked up the phone, and the process of answering the phone was basically that he listened to the other party with a smile throughout the whole process.

"Boss, the box office of the Film Distribution and Projection Association has come out, our box office yesterday was 6.2 million, second only to "Kung Fu", and the box office has basically not been affected in any way, but it has declined slightly." As soon as he put down the phone, Ding Wei immediately said impatiently.

"Yay!" Everyone suddenly relaxed and turned to chat about the detailed box office situation.

As of the 23rd, Zhou Xingchi's "Kung Fu" achieved a national box office score of more than 14 million on the first day of screening, breaking the box office record of all previous films on the first day of screening in China. Among them, the mainland box office is 10 million, which is the same as Zhang Yi's "Hero" and "Ambush on All Sides", while in Hong Kong, it won 4 million box office, and all overseas blockbusters were killed, which is really happy.

The release of this box office number instantly made "Kung Fu" undoubtedly on the top of the topic list, and major media tracked and reported on the box office record of "Kung Fu" throughout the article.

On the first day of release on Thursday on the 23rd, only the mainland box office exceeded 10 million box office, on Friday on the 24th, Christmas and Christmas Eve collected 20 million box office, on Saturday the 25th, and then on the weekend of the 26th, it collected another 14 million box office, and won 64 million on the first weekend of release, once again breaking the highest record of a single day and weekend in the mainland, and as of the 27th, the mainland box office has exceeded 71 million.

Outside the mainland, the results of "Kung Fu" are also shocking, with 25.12 million in the first weekend of its release in Hong Kong, breaking the weekly box office record held by "The Lost World - Jurassic Park 2" for many years. Taiwan's opening weekend box office was NT$44.72 million, surpassing the NT$40.58 million set by "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets". Singapore became the fifth place in the weekly box office list with 18.85 million, and Malaysia became the runner-up in the weekly box office with 36.18 million after "Spider-Man 2".

The popularity of "Kung Fu" has naturally made Zhou Xingchi one of the two most beautiful figures in the recent Chinese film industry, and its main creators have also frequently appeared in the newspapers, and their popularity has increased greatly, especially the heroine Huang Shengyi, who plays the dumb girl in it, with her fresh appearance and temperament, she was quickly known and loved by the audience, and began to embark on the red trajectory of a star girl.

Some people are happy and some are worried, as Feng Xiaogang predicted before, "No Thieves in the World" really seems to have encountered natural disasters and man-made disasters, the average single-day box office on Thursday is only 3 million, and the box office has plummeted by 50%, and it can be accepted 30.1 million this week, falling from the box office champion to the third place in the mainland weekly box office this week.

However, to Wang Zhongjun and Feng Xiaogang's reluctance to satisfaction, as of now, "No Thieves in the World" has accumulated a total box office of 111 million as desired, and has reached the initial box office expectations, but it may be more difficult to reach a higher box office, according to the current box office trend, its box office potential has been almost exhausted, and it can only be a fight to see if it can reach the 120 million mark next week.

is different from Huayi Brothers and Xinghui Film and Television, Lin Yuquan's Shuguang Film Company has a leisurely feeling of watching a play, because it is different from the type of "Kung Fu", coupled with the continuous fermentation of Internet viral marketing, this week's "Huo Yuanjia" is stable and rising compared to last week, and then received 47.83 million, and the current cumulative box office in two weeks is 88.13 million, if there is no accident, it is very safe to break 100 million at the box office next week, as for how far it can go after breaking 100 million, it is completely unpredictable, but it is estimated that the situation is similar to "No Thieves in the World", Let's see if we can rush to 120 million in the end.

The domestic box office is gratifying, and the overseas box office is even more soaring, when I think of the overseas box office, with Lin Yuquan's temperament, I can't help but smile from ear to ear.

Let's talk about North America first, due to the good results of the North American box office last week, this week Fox Searchlight Plus expanded the theaters of "Huo Yuanjia" from 1500 to 2000, in the case of a significant increase in theaters, so even if it is the second week of screening, even if the publicity focus of Shuguang Films is on China, the North American box office has not declined, but has risen slightly, and this time it received another $38.51 million, with a cumulative box office of $74.0123 million in two weeks. However, this week's box office champion failed to hold on, slipping to second place, won by "Meet My Father-in-law", the film airborne the box office champion with a momentum of momentum, and collected a staggering $68.5 million at the box office in five days. The third place belongs to "Fat Abbott", which earned $12.3 million.

At the same time, outside of North America, the United Kingdom, Russia, and Japan are also quite eye-catching because of the relationship between Lewis and others, coupled with good box office results in Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea and other places, making the overseas box office of "Huo Yuanjia" reach a new high of 47.5823 million US dollars.

Including the mainland, as well as last week's total box office, in just two weeks, "Huo Yuanjia" has accumulated $102.94 million.

Lin Yuquan is naturally very satisfied with this achievement, perhaps in the domestic box office, "Huo Yuanjia" basically did not expect to beat Zhou Xingchi, who has a strong accumulation of popularity, but counting the follow-up box office, there is no problem with the total box office surpassing "Kung Fu".

He also went to the theater to watch "Kung Fu", this movie is indeed more exciting, throughout the film, with an obvious nonsensical style of Zhou Xingchi, the comedy scene makes people laugh. But he really doesn't dare to compliment in the fight scenes, Zhou Xingchi is not an action star, nor is he an action director, his strength lies in the control of nonsensical comedy, as for the fight, it is almost all supported by special effects, but the level of special effects is still slightly lacking, and the scene looks more exaggerated. It's okay in the Chinese film industry, but in North America, where special effects technology is highly developed, it is difficult to win the popularity of fans with such a level alone.
