Chapter 445: North American Results (2-in-1)
After the movie was released for a period of time, "Demacia: Dragon's Blood" has basically stabilized in terms of word-of-mouth.
A score of 8.7 is quite good.
For a commercial film whose goal is directly aimed at box office results, rather than some fictitious thing such as awards, it is not bad to have this rating.
Various film reviews and various social media dissemination have made "Dragon's Blood" completely sweep the entire Chinese-speaking circle during this period of time.
It's not just a group of movie lovers, "Dragon's Blood" has become a phenomenal topic.
Especially when the box office results of "Dragon's Blood" during the Spring Festival were released, this kind of discussion almost rose to the peak.
On the day of the premiere of "Dragon's Blood", the box office rushed to 500 million, reaching 540 million!
In the next two days, in the second and third years of junior high school, they also got more than 400 million respectively.
In just three days, the total box office of this movie has reached 1.4 billion yuan.
Of course, there are still a lot of movies in the Spring Festival file, and there are also some films with a large investment scale.
can be put together, compared with a giant like "Demacia: Dragon's Blood", it is still too far behind.
Other films, at the moment of the Spring Festival, with the impact of "Dragon's Blood", can get a box office of two or three hundred million in a single day, which is already good.
There is no comparison with the achievements of dragon blood in the past three days of 1.4 billion.
In the remaining days of the Spring Festival, the overall box office market fell slightly. And it was almost at this time that the battle between other films except "Dragon's Blood" entered the time when the winner was about to be decided.
Some films with more powerful publicity became sluggish after the high box office on the first day and the second day; Some of the quality is really passable, but because the publicity is not good and the box office appeal of the actors is not enough, at this time, they can also fight their way out of the encirclement through their own word-of-mouth, and the latecomers prevail.
Especially on the top of the head, with such a giant as "Dragon's Blood" pressing, everyone can only eat the leftovers of "Dragon's Blood" to survive, and if they don't kill the others, they really won't be able to eat.
Of course, Dimension Entertainment doesn't have to worry about this at all now, and even they don't have to do anything right now – they can't do anything.
The popularity of "Dragon's Blood" has reached a very high level, so high that it can no longer have any impact on the current overall situation by investing money in publicity by ordinary means.
Now, if the popularity of "Dragon's Blood" wants to be further enhanced, it can only rely on all the audiences, word of mouth to spontaneously promote the works, and extend the influence of the works to every inch of the country.
Of course, this is no easy task.
However, even in the current state, the final box office of "Dragon's Blood" is not worrying at all.
During the seven-day Spring Festival holiday, although the box office performance dropped in the next three days, it still maintained a high level for "Dragon's Blood".
The box office results in the past four days have almost remained at the level of about 300 million, and on the last day of the Spring Festival holiday, the data is slightly worse.
In short, after the seven-day Spring Festival holiday has passed, the cumulative domestic box office of "Demacia: Dragon's Blood" has reached as much as 2.5 billion.
And at this time, it was also when the film began to be released in major overseas markets.
The Hong Kong and Taiwan markets have basically maintained the same rhythm of same-day releases as the mainland, but the volume of these two markets, after all, is like that, and it is difficult to have a particularly big impact on the market of "Dragon's Blood".
The most important market is in North America.
The North American film market is generally a very exclusive market. There is not much to say about the problem of North American policy, but the actual root is in those audiences: they basically have no special interest in films produced outside of the United States. For many conservative North American audiences, is there anyone else in the world who makes movies other than Hollywood?
In the North American market, European films can rely on their accumulation of literary films over the years to achieve certain results under this subcategory, while basically other films want to achieve certain results in North America, it is purely fateful.
But Dimension Entertainment broke that.
Not to mention "War", although this film was also released in North America, the results are relatively average. After all, this movie can produce results, and the previous series has a lot of credit, while in North America, the influence of this IP is not so great.
But the next few works, it's not bad.
"Demacia: Glory" Needless to say, this film can directly win the top five in global film history, it is certainly impossible to rely on the domestic market alone, and North America is quite important.
"Glory" has earned more than $300 million at the box office in North America, which is equivalent to almost 2 billion yuan.
After that, the North American box office results of "Taiwu" and "Night Hunter" were also good. Although the former is a martial arts-themed movie, it seems that due to cultural reasons, the acceptance in North America will not be very high, but because "Taiwu" has a game work that is popular all over the world in the front, the situation is much better.
When "Taiwu" was released in North America at that time, it would also win less than 100 million at the box office, counting a series of box offices in Europe, Brazil, etc., with a total of about 120 million.
And "Night Hunter", as a sequel to the LOL series and the foundation laid by "Glory", also got 180 million at the box office in North America, and the overall overseas box office reached 250 million US dollars.
Needless to say, even "Night Hunter" was able to get nearly $200 million at the box office in North America, and "Dragon's Blood", as the second sequel to "Glory", will of course only do better at the box office.
And that's exactly what happened.
"Demacia: Dragon's Blood" is in North America, even if there is no bonus for the Spring Festival, the box office performance is quite good.
More than $47 million on the first day of release, and the box office on the first weekend of the following year directly exceeded 100 million.
Relevant film review media in North America are also exclaiming:
"Wedo Entertainment has come to conquer North America!"
"The only foreign film and television company that can make money in North America stably!"
The related title, after returning to China, once again set off waves.
Chinese people have always had a special way of thinking: domestic companies are not good at home, but they are really good at abroad.
And now, Dimension Entertainment has this kind of capital - we are one of the most powerful pan-entertainment companies in the world.
This 'one' must be added, after all, there are Hollywood Big Six and Disney such a scary thing.
Of course, it is obviously unfair to compare Dimension Entertainment with Disney.
The former has only been a few years since the company was established; And the latter is a century-old wealthy family.
In between, the accumulated gap is too big.
Disney's most valuable asset is the countless copyrights they have accumulated in the past 100 years, among which there are too many familiar ones.
And Dimension Entertainment, so far the most famous, is the development of the LOL series. Although this series has a strong ability to attract money, after all, the full copyright is not in the hands of Wedo Entertainment, not to mention that Disney also has a Marvel superhero series that is not inferior and has a much deeper accumulation.
But if Wedo Entertainment can maintain the current momentum, then there is a real chance in the future that it can become 'Oriental Disney', on an equal footing with them, and even become a company even greater than them."
After all, even in terms of movies alone, even Disney and Marvel are difficult to compare with the movies produced by Dimension Entertainment in recent years at the box office. The batch with the best results may be similar in comparison, but the average score of these works of Wedo Entertainment is too good, and Disney occasionally produces bad movies with bad results.
Of course, the size of the family is large, and the number of movies released every year is also more, which is another topic.
All in all, today's Dimension Entertainment still can't be compared with Disney, and the two are not opponents of the same magnitude. But if you want to put it a little longer, it's a different story.
Recently, the domestic media have always been blowing the comparison between Dimension Entertainment and Disney, and some of them are clear-eyed, but Fan Zhe himself doesn't care much.
He understands a truth: because there is success, there is praise, not praise can be successful. If, one day, Dimension Entertainment fails, these fierce people will probably be the most fierce people to scold at that time. And what he wants to do is not give these people any chance.
What's more, sometimes one pink tops ten black. Blind chickens blow will cause many people to be disgusted.
He gave a request to the company's publicity director, that is, Wu Jingtong, hoping that they could cool down a little in the field of public opinion, and bring the topic from dimensional entertainment to movies.
Wu Jingtong replied that they would work hard.
……
April is coming.
After about eight weeks of screening, "Demacia: Dragon's Blood" is basically entering the end of its screening life.
At this time, the total domestic box office performance of "Dragon's Blood" has reached 5.9 billion, and it is just around the corner to break through 6 billion.
But judging from the current results, "Dragon's Blood" also broke the record left by "Glory", and Wedo Entertainment refreshed its own record after a year, and will inevitably push the highest box office data in mainland China to the threshold of 6 billion.
And its North American box office has also reached a similar result of 300 million US dollars to "Glory".
Coupled with the popularity of the box office results in other parts of the world, the total global box office of "Dragon's Blood" should be able to reach the same level as the previous film, that is, about $1.7 billion.
This result has been able to ensure that "Dragon's Blood" will reach the top five of the global film history box office list.
Although it is his predecessor "Glory" that is squeezed out.
At present, compared with "Dragon's Blood" and "Glory", the results are still a little bit worse, not much, tens of millions of dollars. However, it has only been screened for eight weeks, and for some films, eight weeks is the entire screening life cycle, but for a film of the size of "Dragon's Blood", although most of the potential has been consumed, and the scheduling rate in theaters has also dropped to a very low level, but even so, some new films may not be able to beat it.
Not to mention anything else, it will be screened in domestic theaters for another month, and it is not a big problem. Even in North America, if you put it for another two to four weeks, you can go for it.
And there is such a long time, which is enough to push "Dragon Blood" over "Glory".
However, there may still be a certain gap from the fourth place, the "Avengers" series. With a box office performance of more than two billion US dollars, it is basically impossible for "Dragon's Blood" to surpass.
One of the main reasons is still in the North American market. Take "Avengers 3" as an example, its box office performance in North America has reached nearly 680 million, while "Dragon's Blood" is about half of it.
Although, in terms of domestic box office, "Dragon's Blood" far surpasses "Avengers 3", but the North American box office is not as good as the world's major markets, and after this gap is opened, it is not the absolute popularity of the domestic box office and can be easily made up.
The "Avengers" series is the accumulation of Disney's use of many superhero blockbusters, and the horror achievements created by accumulation. In this regard, Dimension Entertainment is still a little far behind.
However, I think that with more and more movies made in the follow-up LOL series, and more and more heroes are known and loved, this series may be able to burst out with strong vitality in a certain work in the future, even enough to compete with "The Avengers".
And only this year, there are two more movies about the League of Legends series.
One is 'Radiant Girl. Lux's independent film, which will be released in the summer.
The lady named Collier, who plays the main role of Lux, is a newcomer, and she has hardly played any famous roles other than the role of Lux.
But that's why she's so deeply bound to Lux.
played an unimportant role in "Glory" and played an important supporting role in "Dragon's Blood", which also allowed her to deepen her role into the hearts of the audience. And with the gradual increase in the scenes, she can now be famous enough to be able to star in this movie called "Rune Wars" as the heroine.
And in this film, there will be two important heroes.
One is a rune mage. Ruiz is an explorer. Ezreal.
The former found a domestic second-tier actor to play, and after shaving his head, his image was very reliable, and when the time came, he was wearing blue skin, and it was over.
And the latter, 'Little Yellow Hair' found a young British actor, Finn . Whitehead. He once played the role of the protagonist in "Dunkirk", and his outstanding acting skills impressed him.
This film will be released in the summer of this year.
As for the third League of Legends movie of the year, it is a film starring Li Ze and based on the war between Noxus and Ionia, "The Battle of Standing".
