The opening weekend grossed $68,700, an average of $11,450 per theater!

This achievement brightens the eyes of a blind man!

At the beginning, everyone's expectation for Chen Xi was that "The Raid" could exceed the box office of $3,000 per theater, and this result was enough for the cinema to give Chen Xi enough films, and "The Raid" could at least survive in the North American market.

And then things like the amount of film going up will gradually go up.

That's what they're looking forward to......

If the box office of "The Raid" can exceed $5,000 in a single theater, then this film can be regarded as the best Chinese film in recent times.

Six movie theaters can also reach 30,000 US dollars...... After a month of screening, the North American box office of this film can exceed 100,000 US dollars!

What everyone didn't expect was that the box office of "Raid" was so powerful, it could get more than $10,000 in one theater, and it was approaching the $100,000 mark in a week!

At the same time, these fans who participated in watching the screening of "The Raid" have actually had a pretty good viewing experience, and now the number of fans who have watched "The Raid" has reached more than 7,000 people, which of course exceeds the number of viewers who watched "The Raid" at the Toronto Film Festival, and these viewers who watched "The Raid" obviously went back to rate "The Raid", and the scores given were actually not low......

Because "Raid" has started the official screening, this film has also opened the rating mode on IMDB, as long as anyone who has their own ideas about this movie can rate and post a film review, so, after the screening on the first weekend, the IMDB score of "Raid" has reached a rather terrifying 8.2 points, with 678 fans participating in the rating.

Although it is said that as the movie is released for more and more time, more and more people watch it and rate it. The high score of 8.2 points will basically go down, but so far, this 8.2 score does say a lot of problems, and everyone's evaluation of this movie is indeed quite good.

And the conversion rate from ratings to movie reviews is also quite good...... Many American fans have posted good reviews of this movie.

The concept of 8.2 points is quite scary, after all, there are many movies that have entered IMDB's TOP250, but the real score is only 8.1 points.

"It's a movie full of violence, but you can't stop watching! I think this is another breakthrough in Chinese kung fu movies and action movies! I even feel that in the future, Chinese kung fu movies will explore in this direction after the gradual decline of ancient costumes! ”

"A violent and charismatic film! "Raid" makes people have to admire the unique talent of Chinese in action design, and this movie is quite good! ”

…… Similar reviews keep popping up. Push the word-of-mouth and communication power of "The Raid" forward.

In the midst of everyone's various promotions, the cinema side of "The Raid" also received a pretty good response.

In a business-oriented society like the United States, the theater chain is also like that...... "Raid" was not favored last week, so the goal of about 13 movie theaters in Chen Xi's goal was not achieved in advance, but the current "Raid" effect is quite good, and many theaters are willing to release "Raid" all of a sudden, and said that they will give a good amount of films......

For this, Chen regrets that they can't do it...... Because "The Raid" is only a screening now, not a large-scale release. If it is released in too many movie theaters now, it will be different from the original intention, but if it is released in advance, it will have a huge impact on the arrangement of the screening.

So after negotiations and consultations. Starting in the second week, "The Raid" will be screened in 16 theaters, a number that will remain in place until the end of the month.

Some theaters in the middle will rotate screenings...... Such an agreement is also good for Chen Xi, and the whole process finally came to an end in the negotiations between Xiguang and the major cinema chains.

Next. "The Raid" will also face a new round of challenges!

"Sure enough, it's Chen Xi! Awesome! ”

The news of the first week of "The Raid" screening in North America quickly returned to China, in fact, before "The Raid" officially began to be tested in the market. Even if they are die-hard fans of Chen Xi, they don't have complete confidence in this movie in their hearts, and they feel that although this movie has won an award, but Chen Xi, a director who has no popularity base in North America before, plus some actors who don't have any popularity base, even if they go to North America, it is useless, and the North American box office of "Raid" is likely to be hindered by Chen Xi in the overseas offensive, and many things about Chen Xi will be hit hard at that time. Chen's efforts to expand overseas markets will also become more and more difficult after such obstacles.

More fans who don't like Chen Xi or black, as long as they pay attention to this news, most of them also have a similar mentality... I feel that now Chen Xi wants to rise in the North American market, especially if he wants to replicate his achievements in the Chinese market in the North American market, which is basically just an illusion.

Who knows...... Reality made them understand Chen Xi's true strength!

It also let them know that Chen Xi will always create a miracle, whether in China or in the United States.

The domestic media are now also starting to report on the news of "The Raid...... In fact, the domestic media is like this many times, and they are very willing to make a big fuss, especially some of the Chinese's expressions overseas, and they have to desperately amplify them......

It's like when Yao Ming just entered the NBA, they did this, and they recruited countless blacks for Yao Ming, and then Yi Jianlian entered the NBA, and even Sun Yue entered the NBA......

So, Yao Ming did prove himself, but Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue can be said to have suffered an unwarranted disaster, originally their abilities and some things were placed there, and they were not able to grow up like Yao Ming, but because of the strong rendering of the domestic media, it also caused many people to have a psychological gap between these two people in their hearts, so these two people are also tragic among domestic fans...... There are countless sunspots.

Now they have a similar approach to "The Raid", after the screening results of "The Raid" came out, reports and analyses from all parties were everywhere...... Now almost everyone is watching "Raid" and Chen Xi.

"The North American premiere of "The Raid" was an amazing box office, and it is the best Chinese-language movie in the table!"

"The North American premiere of "The Raid" was a box office hit and was well received."

"The rise of Chinese film power! Chen Xi's "Raid" exploded at the North American box office! ”

…… Similar titles have appeared on many websites in China, and many people are now touting the film's North American box office, which is mainly in China, and if it were elsewhere, it would probably be interesting to "The Raid," but not to the point of paying attention to such an on-demand box office.

However, the box office of the first week of "The Raid" was indeed quite good......

However, not all Chinese are surprised by the box office of "Raid", in fact, many people feel unhappy and even confused because of the box office of "Raid"! This is a group of people like Zhuang Guofei and Lu Qi......

These two people, especially the feud between Zhuang Guofei and Chen Xi, are basically known to most ordinary fans now, especially because Zhuang Guofei and Chen Xi did it face to face, and now many people have a huge hostility towards Chen Xi, and almost all of the people on Zhuang Guofei's side are inseparable from Chen Xi...... As for Lu Qi, the grudge between the two at the annual meeting is not small, in short, it is more than enough to reach the point of breaking off friendship and hoping that the other party will have a bad time.

What Zhuang Guofei and Lu Wei were most looking forward to and hoping for before was that although Chen Xi's "Raid" won a Toronto award, when it really came to the film market test, it was full of conditions, and it was best for a movie theater to only have a box office of a few hundred dollars a week, and then see how Chen Xi and them will end!

When the time comes, some people like them can also break out the accusation of Chen Xi from other angles.

But no one thought that Chen Xi would be so awesome, and his "Raid" really got such good results in North America.

Of course, Lu Qi and Zhuang Guofei know the energy and potential contained in Chen Xi's "Raid" at the box office in North America. So now they are even more worried about this movie, after all, as long as some of the energy Chen Xi is getting now and the new news he gets is good, they are basically slapping them in the face, anyway, they feel quite embarrassed and angry...... So the current Lu Qi and Zhuang Guofei are indeed too angry.

And there are also blinding reporters who came to ask them questions, asking them their thoughts on this matter, in line with the idea of losing people and not losing the battle, Zhuang Guofei said directly to the camera: "This is just a box office, it doesn't mean anything, the days are still long!" ”

Such a statement made Chen Xi's fans a little scoffed, this guy is really a scoundrel!

But none of these words actually had much effect.

"The Raid" continues to be screened in North America! The box office of the second week has increased a lot on the basis of the first week! This week, "The Raid" has 16 North American movie theaters participating in the screening of "The Raid", and each movie theater has received an average of $15,741 at the box office this week, and the total box office of "The Raid" is 251856 million, and the cumulative box office has reached 320556 million US dollars! This has properly become the North American box office champion of this year's Chinese films! (To be continued......) R1292
