Chapter 588: Annual Box Office Expectations

Although it was already the weekend, the crew of "Immortals" was busy on the set of Shuguang Film and Television Base, filming was in full swing, and the crew members and actors were working separately.

"Oh, it's really unbelievable that Liu Yifei can act so well!" "Yes, it's completely incredible, I've seen her play in film and television dramas such as "Red Cliff", "Dragon Babu", "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" before, and she didn't know how to shoot fight scenes before." "People are really growing, and now in the entire Chinese film industry, there are few actresses who are better than her in filming."

Lin Yuquan looked at Liu Yifei who was dancing with swords in the field with satisfaction, it has been almost a year since he practiced the exercises, although due to perception and other reasons, the progress of Yifei's cultivation is far less fast than he was at the beginning, but it can also be described as reborn.

"Cut, that's great, start preparing for the next shoot." Lin Yuquan's happy voice sounded on the set.

"Good work, very good." Lin Yuquan handed the mineral water in his hand to Liu Yifei, with a smile on his face: "Do you know what you're talking about now?" They all think that you can become an international star like Michelle Yeoh, but I think you can do better, and that day will not be too far away. ”

"Well, Brother Yuquan, I'll do my best." Liu Yifei said confidently and firmly.

"I believe in you." Lin Yuquan smiled, and then walked to the next group of actors to explain the attention to detail in the filming.

"Attention departments, all in place, action!" Lin Yuquan's voice soon sounded on the set again.

The time of the shooting passed quickly. Accompanied by Lin Yuquan "cut. Thank you very much. Call it a day! The hearty shouts immediately erupted on the set into cheers that were not commensurate with everyone's tired mental state.

At night, in the most luxurious suite of the entire Dawning House, this is Lin Yuquan's exclusive suite in the Dawning House, since the hotel was built, it is only for Lin Yuquan's personal use, or for the use of those he personally gave permission to use.

On the sofa in the spacious and bright living room, Lin Yuquan looked serious and read books and materials related to 3D movie shooting. Liu Yifei held Lin Yuquan's arm with one hand and watched with great interest the "The Right Way in the World is the Vicissitudes of Life" being broadcast by Suzhou Provincial Satellite TV, which was jointly invested and filmed by Shuguang Film and Suzhou Provincial Satellite TV.

Liu Yifei likes it, Lin Yuquan likes it himself, in the past, he must have watched it with relish, but now he can't, after filming "Immortals" and "Twelve Treasures". He is going to devote himself to the shooting of the 3D version of "Wild Story: Battle for the Hundred Races", and 3D movies are certainly not something that can be made if you want to. In particular, he had to shoot well, so before that, he needed to have a systematic plan for the film.

"Brother Yuquan, it's eleven o'clock." As usual, after the end of "The Right Way in the World is the Vicissitudes of Life", Liu Yifei shook his arm and reminded.

"So soon, ok, take a shower and rest." Lin Yuquan stretched his waist, put down the information in his hand, picked up Liu Yifei, and rushed to the bathroom, causing Liu Yifei to exclaim again and again.

After a long time, in the room, Liu Yifei leaned on Lin Yuquan's shoulder, and Lin Yuquan's right hand held Liu Yifei's slender waist.

"Brother Yuquan, do you guess that the box office of "Spartan 300 Warriors" can reach in the opening weekend?"

"Don't guess, you'll know when you get up tomorrow morning anyway, it's not early, let's rest!" Lin Yuquan said and took possession of Liu Yifei's lips.

""Spartan 300 Warriors" descended from the sky, and the epic movie came back to life."

"The muscular hunk is coming, and "300 Warriors" is domineering to the top."

"'300 Warriors' premiered, and the Spartans stormed the North American box office charts."

When the time came to the morning of April 20, the important pages and even the front page headlines of many entertainment media around the world were occupied by the posters of the muscular hunk "Spartan 300 Warriors" by the newly released North American box office charts.

As early as the box office of $29.25 million on the opening day, everyone knew that "Spartan 300" would be a box office hit, but no one would have thought that after everyone lined up to buy tickets on the first day and it was difficult to find a ticket, the film would explode so violently over the weekend, and finally swept the box office of $79.26 million in 3,822 theaters in three days over the weekend.

If it's a summer file, there have been several movies that have exceeded 100 million yuan at the box office in the summer in recent years, but this is April, in such a period, it is definitely possible to describe the feat of "Spartan 300 Warriors" with a shocking and unprecedented appearance.

The reason is very simple, because before this, there had never been such a powerful movie in the American film market in April, even the super-selling sequel animation "Ice Age 2" released in the same month of 06 had a box office less than "Spartan 300 Warriors", and it was more than 11 million US dollars less, from now on, "Spartan 300 Warriors" officially became the April hegemon of the American film market.

Not only unexpected by the outside world, this achievement is also far beyond the expectations of Summit Entertainment, before the release, Summit Entertainment deliberately found someone to do market research, and found that the public's awareness of the film is as high as 75%, which means that 75 out of 100 people have heard of "Spartan 300 Warriors", according to past data, Summit Entertainment's internal expectation is to get $45 million at the box office in the first week, for a film with a production cost of $100 million, such a result is enough to be satisfied, I didn't expect the actual results to exceed expectations so much.

It can be said that after getting such a high box office, even if the film's reputation is bad, there is no worry about not recovering the cost, not to mention that the reviews of "Spartan 300 Warriors" are still very good, and the media critics are above average, and the word-of-mouth evaluation of fans and audiences is the most critical, up to now, the netizen score on the film's IMDB has reached 8.6 points, and the audience score is A-, for a commercial movie, this fully shows the audience's love for the film.

In fact, according to statistics, 65% of the audience of "Spartan 300 Warriors" are men, and 53% of them are under the age of 25, so it can be said that many young people in the United States have fallen madly in love with this muscular hunk film.

When talking about the success of "Spartan 300", many media believe that the solid quality of the film and the good reputation of the audience have played a decisive role. Schneider is also considered to have the momentum to become a Hollywood A-list director with this film.

not only became the weekend box office dominator in April, but at the same time, "Spartan 300 Warriors" also wrote a series of its own names in film history, ranking first at the box office of the spring opening works in film history, beating the previous record-breaking "Ice Age 2"; ranked third at the box office when R-rated works in film history premiered, second only to "The Matrix 2" and "The Passion of the Christ"; The premiere score of comic book adaptations in film history ranked 9th, second only to films such as "The Dark Knight", "Spider-Man 2", "Spider-Man 3", and "Iron Man".

According to the current trend of "Spartan 300 Warriors", the film is likely to cost the first new film to break 200 million at the box office this year, and then look at the release list of Summit Entertainment this year, there are also three films, "Immediate Rescue", "Twilight: New Moon", and "Immortals", together with other movies, no matter how you look at Summit Entertainment's box office this year, it will not be less than 900 million US dollarsIt seems that $1 billion is not difficult, how is this not shocking.

And after the shock, people naturally look forward to curiosity, how much Summit Entertainment's annual North American box office can reach this year, wait and see! (To be continued.) )
