Chapter 1230: Disappointment and Hope

Ten days after its release, "Han Bo and Lingshi" broke through the 3 billion mark at the box office in China.

The decline in the box office is a bit large, and the speed is also a little fast, especially in the next two days, with the end of the holiday, the daily box office has fallen below 100 million. But even so, it falls within the normal category of fan movies. And in the past ten days, "Han Bo and Lingshi" has always firmly occupied the top position at the box office, and has never fallen to the second place one day.

This achievement can definitely surpass "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone".

In fact, most of the domestic box office forecasts put its final box office at more than 3.8 billion, but whether it can cross the threshold of 4 billion, everyone's opinions are not very unanimous. Because with the end of the long holiday, the potential of almost every movie has been greatly consumed, and movies like the kind that are not particularly optimistic before the release, but rely on word-of-mouth to counterattack after the release are too few and too few, "Han Bo and Lingshi" obviously does not belong to this category.

But even so, Nanhai Pictures has already made a lot of money.

Although the production fee and publicity cost are as high as the sky, and Sun Peng's box office dividend is also astronomical, the domestic box office achievements alone can almost make them recover most of their investment. Coupled with the peripherals, overseas box office and peripheral income, this movie has undoubtedly made them a lot of money.

Because ten days later, "Han Bo and Lingshi" got $380 million at the box office overseas!

That is to say, if there are no accidents, this Chinese version of the little magician will eventually get nearly half a billion US dollars at the box office outside of China - not only lower than the new version of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" in this world, but also lower than the original box office on Earth.

And purely from the numbers, there are a lot of lows!

The original global box office on Earth is more than $900 million, of which the one in China is almost negligible; The version of this world won 800 million US dollars outside of Huaxia, which is still far lower than the earth, but in Huaxia it is almost 500 million US dollars!

But "Han Bo and Lingshi", the end point in China may be 600 million at most.

Although it is tens of millions of dollars higher than the little magician, it is 300 million dollars higher overseas. So inside and out, although both movies are still being released, it is impossible for "Han Bo and the Spirit Stone" to catch up with "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" no matter what.

And the gap between the two will definitely exceed 200 million US dollars.

"In other words, this is the gap between Chinese movies and Hollywood now!"

After being silent for a long time after seeing this number prediction, Sun Peng sighed faintly and said: "If the domestic box office is 100 million higher than others, then strictly speaking, it should be about 300 million US dollars......

"Why? Why should the domestic box office remove that 100 million? ”

After listening to Sun Peng's words, Lin Lin, who came to the house as a guest, suddenly asked unconvinced.

"It's simple, because it's our home turf!"

Raising his eyebrows, Sun Peng calmly explained: "Huaxia's, Huaxia's main creator, Huaxia's movie, but the final box office is only tens of millions of dollars more than that of the little magician...... Is this money still a victory? ”

In Sun Peng's view, this is a complete failure!

To be honest, he was a little disappointed by the result. Although Sun Peng knew from the beginning that it was really unrealistic for the little wizard to defeat the little magician, he still had a little expectation in his heart, that is, at least in China, can the little wizard be significantly ahead of the little wizard at the box office?

But unfortunately, the results were not so satisfactory.

It's just that there are hundreds of millions of more Chinese coins, and "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" has a box office of more than 3 billion in China, even fifty or sixty times that of the original version on the earth!

This result is really uncomfortable.

And just when Sun Peng sighed secretly, Lin Lin pouted and said, "Tsk, and you are so settling?" If you want to say that, the home base of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is still the United Kingdom and Hollywood, do you want to reduce their box office there? In addition, the little magician is also your work, should you consider this factor? ”

"This ......"

Hearing this, Sun Peng was slightly stunned, and Sun Peng frowned in understanding.

He only regretted the defeat of the little wizard, but he forgot about these factors that Lin Lin said. It is true that "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" has a high box office in China, so high that it makes him feel a little uncomfortable, but then again, the little magicians of this world are no longer of pure Western blood.

The original work is Lao Bai, a real Chinese person, and it is also the kind with countless domestic fans!

In addition, it is indeed too unfair to compare the box office of this world with the original box office on Earth. After all, Huaxia here is the world's largest ticket warehouse, twice as large as North America. And when the first Harry Potter film was released on Earth, China's annual total box office was less than one billion yuan!

"And I think the potential of the little wizard is obviously greater!"

Seeing what Sun Peng was pondering, Lin Lin continued to take care of himself: "Of course, Western magician themes will be more acceptable, but have you ever thought about whether you will get tired of watching too much?" ”

“…… Crooked? ”

After being stunned for a while, Sun Peng suddenly remembered one thing, that is, the box office of the Harry Potter series of movies!

When he told stories to his two nieces in his last life, Sun Peng not only finished reading the Little Magician series of books, but also watched eight movies. And because of the so-called "world's most profitable series of movies", he also went to check the box office results of the eight films in the series.

The global box office of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is more than 900 million and nearly 1 billion.

But by the time of the second "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", North America had fallen by $60 million or seventy, while the world had dropped by almost $100 million.

And by the time of the third installment, "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban", the two figures fell even further, and the global box office was even less than $800 million.

From the fourth to the seventh part, that is, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part I)", the global box office never exceeded the $1 billion mark, and it was not until the final finale was released that the box office record of the series of films was pushed to $1.3 billion in one go. Of the $1.3 billion box office, China only has tens of millions.

Why?

In addition to the failure of the movie itself, the influence of factors such as the darker and darker content, will it really be as Linlin said, there is also the possibility of everyone's aesthetic fatigue?

So......

In this regard, is it possible that the Little Wizard series will have an advantage?

After all, Chinese filmmakers have never done anything like this, and they used to prefer to shoot zombies, ghosts, myths and the like. And because of the restrictions of various factors, there was basically no big investment before, and it was all supported by the plot and makeup, even if the films made in the past few years, the highest cost was only three or four hundred million.

Compared with "Han Bo and Spirit Stone", the sincerity is far behind.

Thinking of this, Sun Peng broke his somewhat stiff fingers, and his eyes couldn't help but light up: "If you think about it like this, one day in the future, will it be possible for the box office of the same episode of Little Wizard to surpass Little Magician?" This hope should exist......"
