Chapter 477: First Week Box Office

After the premiere of "Operation Red Sea", it received many praises from all sides, whether it was the media, film critics or the audience.

At the same time, the pre-sale of "Operation Red Sea" is also very popular, and the pre-sale officially exceeded 100 million on the first day of pre-sale!

The two-day pre-sale is over, and the pre-sale box office of "Operation Red Sea" is expected to reach 200 million yuan!

Countless fans are also eagerly waiting for the official release of "Operation Red Sea"!

And in the week of the release of "Operation Red Sea", a total of eight new films were released in the domestic film market!

In addition to "Operation Red Sea", there is another film that has considerable box office competitiveness, and that is Huayi's "Di Renjie: The Four Heavenly Kings"!

This is the third and probably the last film in the "Di Renjie" series.

Because Chen Jing refused to participate, Xu Ke found Zhao Youting to star.

Although Xu Ke's current box office appeal in China is not particularly prominent, he is still a well-known director of Xiangjiang, and it is the third part of the series, so he still has a certain fan base.

However, compared with "Operation Red Sea", "Di Renjie's Four Heavenly Kings" is obviously unable to compete.

As for the other 6 new films, they can only be regarded as cannon fodder, and their box office competitiveness is not as good as last week's Hollywood film "Sky Rescue".

and "I Am Not the God of Medicine", which has swept the film market for three weeks!

Especially when the pre-sale of "Operation Red Sea" is hot, Maoyaner Films has changed the box office expectation of "Operation Red Sea" to 4 billion yuan!

It was in anticipation from the media, theaters and fans that on Thursday, July 26, 2018, "Operation Red Sea" ushered in the official release!

Early in the morning, the first thing Xiaoying did when she got up was to open her notebook and find out the box office information about "Operation Red Sea"!

"Everyone's looking forward to it! The two-day pre-sale box office of "Operation Red Sea" exceeded 200 million yuan!" --- reported by Sohu Entertainment

"28.5 million RMB, "Operation Red Sea" set a new box office record for domestic films!" --- Wangyi Entertainment

"Operation Red Sea is expected to break the first-day box office record in film history!" --- New Wolf Entertainment

……

"Hahaha, Boss Chen, come and see, the pre-sale box office of "Operation Red Sea" has reached 210 million yuan!" Xiaoying said excitedly, "It's 200 million before it is released, it's amazing."

After Xiao Ying finished speaking, she turned around and looked at Chen Jing with a look of adoration, she knew that Chen Jing was the best.

starring in "Operation Red Sea" this time will obviously make her status and influence in the film industry leap and bound!

"200 million, it's okay!" Chen Jing said casually.

"Okay?" Xiao Ying's beautiful eyes widened when she heard this, "This is 200 million, this result should be a record, right?"

Chen Jing shook her head with a smile after hearing this, "It's still far away!"

The two-day pre-sale box office of "Operation Red Sea" reached 210 million yuan, which is indeed a very good result!

This pre-sale result is amazing enough, but it has not been able to break the pre-sale box office record in film history.

Although the pre-sale time is only 2 days is a big reason, it is true that this record has not been broken!

Not only that, but the pre-sale box office score of 210 million is only ranked 5th in the pre-sale box office list in film history.

Trailing Monster Hunt 2, Avengers 3, Chinatown Detective 2 and Love Apartment respectively!

Xiao Ying blinked her beautiful eyes after hearing this, "Okay, then we will start the pre-sale early next time, so that we can surpass them."

Chen Jing smiled when she heard this, "It's also a way."

Immediately, Xiaoying pointed to the notebook and said, "The box office of the zero point show should have broken the record!" 28.5 million, the media said it was a record!"

Chen Jing nodded after hearing this, "This result is not bad!"

The zero-point box office of 28.5 million has indeed broken the zero-point box office record of domestic films, and it is Chen Jing's own record!

The 18.5 million of "Touching the Golden Captain" has since become ancient

, can only rank second in the box office record of domestic films at zero point!

On the box office list of the zero point field in film history, the box office score of 28.5 million can only rank 7th!

The highest ranking is 62.7 million yuan for "Fast and Furious 8", the gap is very obvious, and the other 5 are also Hollywood films.

On the box office list of the zero point field, it has always been the world of Hollywood blockbusters.

Among all the films with a box office of more than 10 million, in addition to Chen Jing's three movies, only "Journey to the West" and "Hong Kong" are on the list!

All the others are Hollywood blockbusters!

"Alright, hurry up and pack up, eat something and get ready to start running the pitch." Chen Jing urged.

When Xiaoying heard this, she immediately went to wash, and then went out with Chen Jing after a simple meal.

The main creators of "Operation Red Sea" gathered at the gate of Wanda Cinema early in the morning, ready to officially start the promotion.

"Director Chen, have you seen the pre-sale box office and the zero point box office?" Li Xian asked excitedly.

The others were also happy and excited when they heard this.

Chen Jing nodded, "It seems that everyone knows about it."

Everyone smiled and nodded.

"Then we will continue to work hard and strive for the higher the box office, the better." Chen Jing said loudly.

"Good!"

The crowd is in full swing!

"Let's go!"

……

At this time, Wanda Cinema was busy, shoulder to shoulder.

Even though it was Thursday, it was still packed with moviegoers.

"I'm going, there are so many people on Thursday today, is it discounted today?"

"I guess they all came for Operation Red Sea!"

"I guess it's because I came to watch Operation Red Sea anyway, and after watching the trailer and the comments from the online media and everyone, it made me itch!"

"Itchy? You've watched the film, right?"

"Shhh......h Be quiet!"

"It's okay if you don't say it, but I have a friend, please borrow one to talk to!"

"You saw those blue-clad people, they were all elves, and they must have formed a group to support Operation Red Sea."

"Damn, Blue Star Sea?"

"Do you still know the Blue Sea of Stars?"

"Nonsense, looking at this posture, it is estimated that the box office of "Operation Red Sea" will not be low!"

"Ah......h

"What's the situation?"

"Chen Jing is here! I guess the "Red Sea Operation" running field publicity is here!"

……

Chen Jing, Xiaoying, Zhang Yi, Li Xian and other main creators just waved to the audience in the hall after entering the theater.

Although it caused a burst of screams, he didn't dare to stay, and went directly into the theater.

The audience in the No. 3 Blue Classic Cinema was still chatting during the advertising time, and suddenly a scream broke out in the cinema hall!

"Chen Jing!"

"Xiaoying!"

"Li Xian!"

"Ah......h

……

Soon, the audience in the theater realized that they had won the lottery and actually met the crew of "Operation Red Sea" who came to promote.

"Hello everyone, we are the main creators of the crew of "Operation Red Sea", and I am the director Chen Jing!" Chen Jing introduced with a smile.

"I'm Xiaoying, the heroine of "Operation Red Sea"!"

"I'm Zhang Yi from Operation Red Sea!"

……

"It's a pleasure for all of you to support Operation Red Sea, and to show your appreciation, if you have any questions or reasonable requests, we will do our best to accommodate them!" Chen Jing said.

"Boss Chen, you're so handsome, can I hug you?" A female audience member immediately stood up and shouted loudly.

Xiao Ying smiled when she heard this, and looked at Chen Jing beside her.

Chen Jing also smiled, "Of course you can, but I hope you understand, it's best to do it below."

Ask for something else."

After listening to it, everyone can understand that if they don't refuse, it is estimated that there is a chance that such a request will be made.

When the female audience heard this, they immediately laughed and ran to the stage, and then directly threw themselves into Chen Jing's arms.

"Ah......h

Many girls shouted with envy, but Xiaoying covered her mouth and smiled.

It took a while for the theater to fall silent.

"Boss Chen, why do you rarely appear in your movies?"

"Oh ......

Everyone instantly coaxed when they heard this.

Xiao Ying on the side also looked at Chen Jing and smiled.

Chen Jing raised her eyebrows after hearing this, "The main thing is whether the role is suitable and the schedule, as you know, Sister Mi and I are very busy, and the schedule may not be met."

"Boss Chen, do you think the box office of "Operation Red Sea" can surpass "Chinatown Detective 2"?"

Chen Jing smiled when she heard this, "As long as you like Operation Red Sea and recommend it to your relatives and friends, then you can definitely do it!" After all, it's up to you to decide what the final box office will be."

"Then I decided, "Operation Red Sea" must surpass "Chinatown Detective 2" at the box office!"

"Hahaha......

"I lend you good words!" Chen Jing also smiled.

"Boss Chen, I'm your fan, can you sing us a song, I like your "The Rest of Your Life" the most!"

Chen Jing smiled when she heard this, "This is simple, I'll just sing a few words!"

……

The time for running the promotion was only about half an hour, and then the main creators of "Operation Red Sea" left for the next theater.

Cycle after cycle, continuous cycle of running.

If there are too many sessions, lunch is just finished in the car, and then a short break will continue.

The time of day is basically repetitive, and it is not a small pressure on the body and mind.

However, they were all mixed in the circle, and they got used to it, so they gritted their teeth and persevered.

By the end of the day, it was already eleven o'clock at night when Chen Jing and Xiaoying returned to the villa.

"Whew, I'm tired!" Xiaoying came home and collapsed directly on the sofa, often letting out a sigh.

Chen Jing smiled and picked up Xiaoying directly, "Hurry up and take a shower and sleep, and continue to run tomorrow."

The two of them thought they would sleep after washing and did nothing.

After all, the running field publicity lasts for at least 2 weeks, and every day is a test of physical strength, so it's right to save physical strength.

But as soon as someone touched it, it was immediate, and in the end, it went off the rails.

……

The next day, everyone gathered again in the morning to continue the running publicity.

However, after the gathering, everyone couldn't help but check the box office of the first day of "Operation Red Sea"!

"351 million!" Li Xian couldn't help but exclaim when he saw the media report.

Xiao Ying and Zhang Yi also immediately took out their mobile phones and looked at them when they heard this.

"The cumulative box office of "Operation Red Sea" on the first day was 351 million, and it won the daily box office championship strongly!" --- reported by Sohu Entertainment

"351 million yuan, "Operation Red Sea" set a new box office record for the opening of Thursday in film history!" --- New Wolf Entertainment

It is second to "Monster Hunt 2" with 546 million, "Fast and Furious 8" with 417 million, "Avengers 3" with 387 million, and "Journey to the West" with 354 million yuan!

However, it is worth noting that the premiere days of the previous four films are all Friday or Saturday weekends, and the first day of "Operation Red Sea" is Thursday, which is slightly at a disadvantage.

The main creators of the crew are also more motivated, and they continue to run the promotion very hard, wanting to win an amazing box office result for "Operation Red Sea".

"Operation Red Sea" did not live up to the expectations of the entire crew and theaters.

On Friday, the second day of its release, "Operation Red Sea" continued its strong performance and won 375 million at the box office!

It has won the Japanese box office championship for a long time, and the box office of other films is not as large as that of "Operation Red Sea".

And with the release of the film, the word-of-mouth of the movie has gradually spread, and countless viewers who have watched the film have turned into tap water, strongly Amway, this war action movie.
