In 2007, the total number of screens in the country was about 4,000, which is already higher than the same period in the world. But in another world, by 2020, the total number of screens has more than tripled to more than 80,000.

So before Wang Huan's "Three-Body Problem", what was the highest box office in the Chinese market?

360 million yuan, the record set by "Titanic", which is a record set in 1998.

Now, almost a decade later, this record has yet to be broken.

At present, the highest box office record for domestic films is "The City Full of Golden Armor", 291 million yuan, which was a work two years ago.

But this year, there is also a Hollywood super-blockbuster released in China.

It was released on June 15, and in another world, the film was released on July 3.

There is no doubt that this film is yet another visual feast.

It's also pretty much the best of the Transformers, and definitely a good popcorn movie.

Of course, its box office is still not as good as "Star Wars Prequel".

The global box office of Star Wars Prequel 1 is almost 900 million.

And Transformers currently seems to have a maximum box office of $700 million, but this is already a very staggering number.

At least, the Chinese audience was fascinated and enthusiastic.

Because countless people have sighed and watched Transformers, I am once again sure that the Chinese film industry lags behind Hollywood by 30 years.

"You say, can the effect of "Three-Body Problem" be half as good as that of "Transformers"?"

"Half of it, 30 percent, I'm very satisfied. ”

In this craze, a month after the release of Transformers, it hit a box office of 280 million yuan in China, second only to "Titanic" and "The City Full of Golden Armor".

This result is already the best result of the year.

But no matter what, the popularity of the movie "Three-Body Problem" is absolutely amazing.

The media has been hyping it for two years, especially in the last half month.

When many filmmakers were interviewed, they kept saying that the "Three-Body Problem" movie was ahead of Hollywood for at least 20 years.

I want to watch a movie on my knees.

These two sentences really aroused the suspicion of the whole people and heated discussions among the whole people.

No one believes it.

Not to mention people abroad, even domestic audiences can't believe it, even Wang Huan's hardcore fans can't believe it.

Because this fixed thinking is too powerful, Chinese films lag behind Hollywood by twenty or thirty years, which is everyone's cognition.

You said that the three-body problem surpassed Hollywood for 20 years at once, and I really don't believe it, and it's too hard.

Everyone took it as a hype.

The goal of the hype of the united efforts of filmmakers across the country is to lift the box office of "The Three-Body Problem".

But bragging will always be punctured.

When everyone enters the cinema, this is not the case, but they will be even more disappointed and scolded.

Isn't it even more detrimental to the box office?

But in any case, at midnight on July 18, all the movie theaters began to show a grand queue.

Since July 18, the schedule of "Three-Body Problem" has directly exceeded 75%.

Especially in the zero-point field, almost 100% of the "Three-Body Problem" is arranged.

And in this era, online ticketing has not yet prevailed, although the computer network has been able to buy tickets online, but the vast majority of people still go directly to the cinema to buy tickets.

Wang Huan has many fans.

Plus everyone is curious, what does this film, which has been in the making for two years, look like?

With an investment of more than two billion dollars, what is the look of a movie that has been blown into the sky by filmmakers.

So, the attendance at 0 o'clock is very impressive.

And this group of audiences is also the most important, they are the group of people who love movies the most, and they are also the source of word-of-mouth fermentation.

Of course, these audiences at the zero point show are not only fans of Wang Huan, but also a large number of film critics.

To be honest, this group of film critics has always admired Western films, and they are very harsh on domestic films.

Whether it's a hero or a city full of golden armor, all you get is criticism.

And the scoring is very harsh.

So there has always been a rumor that Hollywood movies will automatically rise by 1 point, and domestic films will automatically subtract by 1 point.

At least so far, the weight and voice of this group of film critics is still very high.

But after ten years, there is very little room for survival, and basically the audience's word of mouth is the most important.

And Zhou Gongzi is a very famous film critic.

Each of his film reviews is published in many newspapers, reprinted on many portals, and of course on his blog.

In short, each of his film scores is very heavy.

He just watched the movie with a provocative heart, because his heart was not happy, so he would definitely wear colored glasses next.

Cultural people, that's how they do their own thing.

In "Hero" that year, he scored 6.2 points. The city is full of gold armor, and he scored 5.9 points.

He has also been paying attention to the movie "The Three-Body Problem", and he has a high-minded attitude.

Because he has watched all the world's movies, and as a film critic, he feels that he has the right to speak in the film.

He feels that Wang Huan is a layman in the film industry.

Although he knew that Wang Huan had spent a lot of money, the recent hype of the movie "Three-Body Problem" made him very annoying.

When a group of filmmakers were interviewed, they spoke in unison, saying that they were 20 years ahead of Hollywood, and that they were going to watch movies on their knees.

It's been hyped up too much, and it's disgusting.

So in his heart, Zhou Gongzi has already subtracted one point from the rating of this movie.

Before the movie opened, he looked at the full theater, and his heart was filled with a trace of disgust.

In a way, he felt, Wang Huan was carrying out a moral kidnapping of the Chinese audience.

If you don't come to see this movie, you're not patriotic.

He was thinking in his heart, who in this group of audiences really loves to watch movies.

A mature and democratic country should not use anything to kidnap people to do something.

It's a pity that not everyone has this kind of feeling and cognition.

The poor audience was consumed by Wang Huan again.

Wang Huan, don't care if you're a hero or not.

But I'll still tell the truth tomorrow, if your movie doesn't work, I will unceremoniously expose it and give it a bad review.

In this kind of thinking.

The theater went dark, and then the movie started.

He put on his 3D glasses with a little impatience.

What kind of 3D gimmick to play?

The Chinese film industry does not have this technology at all, and it is good to shoot 2D honestly.

This kind of film revolution is still handed over to a great god like James Cameron, who knows that Kashen is making a film that has never been done before, a film that can change the entire film world, and he is extremely looking forward to that movie.

And now this three-body problem, wearing the so-called 3D glasses, is probably completely cumbersome.

The eccentricity began.

It's the bias of Dream Pictures.

Picture of a meteor shower falling from the sky.

it!

Caught off guard, Zhou Gongzi was taken aback.

Then, almost instinctively, he shrank back.

Because the 3D effect is so strong.

Looking at the audience again, it seems to be stunned.

Many people instinctively shrank back, and some even reached out to block.

Is this so awesome?

This title must have been produced by the most famous foreign company. Wang Huan said that the movie would be produced in China, but he did not say that the company's title was also produced in China.

This Zhou Gongzi's prejudice against domestic movies is also deeply rooted in the bone marrow.

But in a way, he can't be entirely blamed for that.

Next, the movie really begins.

A huge picture came to the face.

This...... This color seems to be different.

It's very impactful.

Ordinary movies don't have this kind of color.

Even the best Transformers of the year, in order to save money, some scenes are held at night, so the effect of special effects is less demanding.

Next, the movie screen entered the Great Khing'an Mountains.

It's a huge picture of great beauty, and it's really like an incomparably real landscape.

Once again, many spoke out in amazement.

This...... This giant screen is too amazing, the key is this color, it's too awesome.

Immediately after that, it is the Red Bank base that was completely built 1 to 1.

Shot from near and far, it is full of great impact.

Zhou Gongzi knew how Wang Huan spent his more than 200 million.

The impact is really strong.

However, these are live-action shots.

The most crotch-pulling thing in Chinese movies is the computer special effects, and once it enters the special effects part of the movie, the movie will collapse.

Soon after!

The movie enters the Three-Body Planet.

Zhou Gongzi only had two words in his head:.

This...... Is this a live-action shot?

Or are they special effects?

Wait for the first special effects feast to begin.

It was the appearance of three suns, and the three-body planet ushered in a huge disaster.

Hundreds of kilometers of ground are burning, and countless people are dehydrated and turned into fibers.

What's even more terrifying is that this scene is also a shot to the end.

There is far and near, and then zoom out again, looking down on the entire burning three-body planet, and the picture is constantly moving.

The disaster scenes of hundreds of miles are completely presented.

From lakes to mountains, from rural to urban.

A real one-shot to the end.

A long shot of more than a minute.

The disaster of the entire three-body planet is vividly interpreted.

And at this time, of course Zhou Gongzi knew that this must be a computer special effect.

But...... I really can't see it.

This...... It's more real than real.

It's beyond the limits of his imagination.

He was reluctant to blink his eyes, and even held his breath.

There are no distractions in my mind, and I enjoy an unprecedented visual feast.

Over and over again, I kept screaming in my heart:,,,.

Finally, the special effects of this more than minute are over.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Wen didn't lie, and Liang Jiahui didn't brag either.

It's really that awesome.

This...... It's terrifying, isn't it?

Just this scene just now has already killed "Star Wars Prequel" in seconds.

Zhou Gongzi has watched countless movies, and he is sure that no movie can have special effects of this level.

It's so real.

More than the real truth.

Truth beyond imagination.

Then, like other filmmakers, he was constantly distracted.

The brain is constantly in reverie.

I'm watching an unprecedented movie, but I can't control my mind from thinking about it.

It's awesome.

How?

Immediately after, the second wave of special effects visual impact came.

Qin Shi Huang's million-strong army, playing the role of a human flesh computer.

This picture is more shocking and more realistic.

For the first time on the film, an array of million-strong armies appeared.

There were cavalry, there were infantry, there were chariots.

Everyone looks real, and the weapons and armor in their hands are so subtle.

After the million-strong army was spread out, the picture was several square kilometers.

Unprecedented spectacle.

The point is that it is bigger than the Lord of the Rings' 200,000 army scene, but I don't know how much it is real.

Because, there are a lot of close-ups inside, as if the camera swept over the face of every soldier.

Despite the speed, everyone looks like a real person. Their armor and weapons, as well as their horses, are also real.

It's still a shot to the end.

Zhou Gongzi really has a feeling of crying.

He understands movies, and he knows how difficult this thing is.

In this way, he watched the movie completely confused.

Then, the fatal blow of the special effects was ushered in.

The ultra-small 9-latitude proton unfolds into an infinite 2-latitude plane, and prints circuits on it, turning it into a supercomputer.

This effect lasted for several minutes.

It's not like a movie, it's as if the whole process is real, and it's filmed in its entirety for you to see.

I don't understand.

I don't understand either.

But...... I was conquered.

This is the king of special effects.

The whole process really exceeds the limits of many people's imagination.

It's really like magic.

The key is that it is complete and detailed.

It seems that each one is extremely detailed.

Even this plot in the original book is not so detailed.

203 minutes passed quickly.

The movie is over.

Still no one applauded.

After the movie ended, everyone sat in their seats.

Zhou Gongzi also sat in his position.

Then, he listened to the people on the side chatting.

"This ...... What's the story of this movie?"

"It's probably the content of the first part of "The Three-Body Problem", the Trimaran Fleet is coming soon, and the earth is facing the end of the world. ”

"And then?"

"There are a lot of plots in it, and I haven't seen it clearly, I don't know what's going on, and I'm always distracted. ”

"Me too, I get distracted when I look at it, and my mind always thinks,, it's awesome. ,, this, how did you do this? Obviously I had already played other content, and my mind seemed to be stuck in the extremely shocking scene a few minutes ago. ”

"Let's brush it twice!"

"I'm sure I'm going to have 2 brushes, I'll buy a ticket tomorrow. ”

The crowd that walked out of the cinema was extremely excited, but also ignorant.

Zhou Gongzi is a little strange, why no one mentions "Transformers", why doesn't anyone mention "Star Wars Prequel"?

Isn't there a comparison supposed to be made?

He found that he was reluctant to mention it or compare.

Because, there is no need to compare at all.

Walking out of the cinema, it was already half past three in the morning.

He was supposed to take a taxi home, but he just wanted to walk.

So, he walked for a whole hour, not 8 kilometers, to his home.

Still unable to sleep, I made myself a cup of strong tea.

Sit in front of your computer and get ready to write a movie review.

Outcome...... I found it completely impossible to write.

I sat for more than two hours.

Eventually, he wrote on his blog.

After watching "Three-Body Problem 1", which premiered at 0:00, I sat for two hours and couldn't write a movie review.

Just now my mom brought me breakfast and found me kneeling in a chair.

She was curious, why did I kneel and write a movie review?

I don't know why?

I don't have anything to write about, because I actually didn't watch a lot of the plot during the whole movie.

Completely distracted.

During the whole viewing process, my brain seemed to lose its reaction, only the most instinctive reaction.

Holy!

,.

,,!

It's been like this from start to finish.

And after watching those giant and shocking pictures, my brain kept reminiscing, and I was completely shocked to the point that my whole body was numb, and then I was directly distracted, and I forgot to watch the next plot.

So, I can't write a movie review.

I can't score either.

I have probably only one suggestion for a national audience.

Hurry up and buy tickets, the best one is IMAX3D, trust me and you'll be on your knees watching the movie.

Some people ask me, how does he compare to Star Wars Prequels?

How does he compare to Transformers?

Don't ask me that question, and I won't answer it either.

"The Three-Body Problem" is unprecedented.

"The Three-Body Problem" is the first in history.

An unprecedented revolution in the film history of "The Three-Body Problem".

That's it, I'm going to go to bed, and then get up and grab a ticket for the night.

After writing, Zhou Gongzi directly published a blog.

But he was too late.

The Internet has been completely and thoroughly boiling.

The film's technology is much stronger than 2009's Avatar.

The big scenes are much more shocking, much more sci-fi, and the special effects are even more amazing.

After all, this is the technology of 2039, plus the final rendering and modulation of the Tower of Doom Civilization Star.

The effect can be imagined.

And this is a Chinese movie, which has always received unprecedented attention, and it is also underestimated.

Therefore, the sensation caused in China far exceeded that of "Avatar".

Viewers who watched the premiere, after returning to the network.

Bordering on frenzy, he made all sorts of posts describing how frightened he was.

But without exception.

The most common words in everyone's posts are:,.

,,!

It's not a compliment, it's not a compliment, it's a shock.

I was shocked.

Moreover, almost no one discusses the plot.

In front of this amazing picture, big scenes, special effects, and technological revolution.

Everyone ignored the plot for the time being.

After dawn the next day.

Newspapers, the Internet, TV, reports about the "Three-Body Problem" movie, completely rushed to the face.

One-sided praise.

No, one-sided shock to be exact.

Those who have watched the movie, keep calling, keep sending QQ messages, keep posting on the Internet.

I recommend that those around you definitely watch it, especially IMAX3D.

But at this time, in the whole country, there are no more than 15 IMAX screens, most of which are still in the science and technology museum.

Immediately after that, great good news came.

Several major science and technology museums across the country have announced that they are willing to open their IMAX theaters to screen "The Three-Body Problem".

"Avatar" was very popular in China on the first day, but it was not until a few days later that it really reached its peak.

And "The Three-Body Problem" was completely blown up in China almost on the first day.

And his ticket price is also very expensive, ordinary tickets are sold for 50 yuan a piece, 3D averages 70 a piece, and IMAX3D even reaches 120 a piece.

But you can't slam it for being too expensive.

Because it's 203 minutes, it's twice as long as other movies.

Almost on the first day, there were already queues in theaters in first-tier cities.

And the IMAX theater lined up in a long line, directly to the square outside.

It's been a few years since I've seen a movie queue.

July 19th!

Almost all of them, are waiting for a result.

What was the box office on day one?

Can a miracle be created?

The previous best result in history was around 15 million.

It's not like a decade later, and the box office is almost real-time.

It takes several theaters to do the statistics, and it will take at least a few hours before the data is available.

It's not just Wang Huan who cares, and it's not just other filmmakers who care.

The leaders of the Film Bureau, as well as the leaders of the higher departments, especially the big leader who came to see the internal screenings twice, were also extremely concerned.

even stayed up late without sleeping, just waiting for the premiere box office figures.

"Are the numbers out?"

"It's still counting, it's still counting, it's coming out soon. ”

The leaders of the Film Bureau, drink strong tea cup after cup.

This first-day box office data is too important.

Before, they didn't have any hope of defeating Star Wars Prequels.

But now that the movie is out, the quality is so against the sky, the box office may not be without the power of a fight.

"Why hasn't the box office come out yet? Is it so slow, is it so difficult? A few numbers can be added to it. The head of the film bureau complained.

The people below are speechless, is this a few numbers?

It is broadcast on more than 3,000 screens across the country, with a total of more than 13,000 performances a day.

"Surpassing 20 million is a victory, and the previous best historical result was 15 million. ”

Of course, in another world, there is also data.

Avatar's first-day box office in China was 36 million, an unprecedented record.

I waited for more than half an hour.

Suddenly, there was a voice.

"Director, the numbers are out. ”

"How much?!" the leader of the Film Bureau stood up sharply.

"46 million!"

............................................................

Note: The second update will be sent, and I will go out tomorrow. But I'll code on the train, and the update is still there.

Ladies and gentlemen, do you still have a monthly pass? There are dozens of them, and they are about to be exploded, so scary~!
