"The box office of "Me and My Fathers" was 65.17 million on the first day, ranking second in the daily box office list!" --- reported by Sohu Entertainment

……

On September 30, 2021, "Changjin Lake" and "Me and My Fathers" were released nationwide on the same day, officially kicking off the box office war of the National Day file.

Although there are many new films released this week, the focus of the entire film market is undoubtedly on the two films "Changjin Lake" and "Me and My Fathers".

After their respective premieres before, both films received rave reviews.

At the same time, "Changjin Lake" has Chen Jing and Wu Jing, the two most appealing leading actors at the box office, with an investment of more than 1 billion, and the war scene is known as the domestic ceiling.

"Me and My Fathers" is the third part of the "National Day File Trilogy", and it is also the finale, which can be called the "strongest IP" work of the National Day file.

At the same time, it also gathered more than 40 stars such as Wu Jing, Xu Zheng, Shen Pain and International Zhang to help, and the cast was strong.

Both films look to be extremely appealing at the box office.

It's just that before the release of the two films, you can actually see the winners and losers.

The most direct is reflected in the pre-sale box office results.

Before the release, the pre-sale box office of "Changjin Lake" had directly broken 400 million yuan!

Correspondingly, the pre-sale results of "My Fathers and Me" are only 30 million!

The difference between the two is more than 10 times!

And after the results of this pre-sale box office came out, the circle and the media were stunned.

Although I knew that "Changjin Lake" would most likely suppress "Me and My Fathers", I didn't expect the gap to be so big!

At the same time, many good news media also laughed that only after the tide receded, did they know who was swimming naked.

Watching the two films before, it seemed to be a bit evenly matched, and the result was this?

In addition, many media and netizens think that Wu Jing's box office appeal is overestimated.

Wu Jing directed and participated, but the pre-sale results of "Changjin Lake" and "Me and My Fathers" were so poor.

Where is the gap?

Chen Jingbei!

Think about it again, the cumulative box office of the movies directed by Chen Jing has exceeded 10 billion, and the cumulative box office of the movies in which he participated has exceeded 35 billion.

Therefore, Chen Jing is the real king of the box office!

In the face of the huge gap in pre-sale results, the theater is also very realistic, and the reality is reflected in the film scheduling!

The first day of "Changjin Lake" was as high as 53.3%, while "Me and My Fathers" was only 16.1%!

On the first day of the release of the two films, "Changjin Lake" lived up to expectations and won the box office of 450 million yuan, and won the daily box office championship without any suspense!

As for "Me and My Fathers", only 65.17 million yuan was recorded, although it ranked second, but the gap with "Changjin Lake" was too big.

However, on October 1, after the National Day file really came, the schedule of "Changjin Lake" dropped to 41.4%, and the schedule of "Me and My Fathers" rose to 33.4%!

Because there is obviously an agreement between the distributor and the theater chain, it is impossible to make the film schedule of "My Father and Me" too low.

With the rise of film scheduling, the daily box office of "My Father and Me" also rose to 182 million yuan, but it could only be relegated to the second place.

At the top of the list is "Changjin Lake", which received 510 million yuan!

Although the gap between the two has narrowed, it is still far from the same!

This situation lasted until the end of the week, and the box office of the first week of the National Day stalls was also freshly released!

Mainland Weekly Box Office Rankings (2021.9.27-2021.10.3):

No. 1, "Changjin Lake", with a release time of 4 days, a weekly box office of 1.827 billion yuan, a box office accounting for 70.02%, a film schedule accounting for 27.5%, an attendance rate of 56%, an average of 68.5 people per game, and a number of screenings;

……

The 2021 National Day file kicked off, and "Changjin Lake" won a box office of 1.827 billion yuan in the first week, which can be said to have swept the film market.

Although it didn't break the first-week box office record for "Crime and Punishment", it was amazing enough.

Of course, the first-week box office of "Changjin Lake" also made the media begin to gloat.

Comparing the box office of "Changjin Lake" and "Crime and Punishment" in the first week, the difference reached 623 million yuan.

Judging from this box office gap, it is not easy for "Changjin Lake" to surpass "Crime and Punishment".

If "Changjin Lake" can't surpass "Crime and Punishment", then Chen Jing's arrogance that "people always have to progress" will be in vain!

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

This can be regarded as a rare failure for Chen Jing, and the media will be lively at that time!

As for "Me and My Fathers", the box office in the first week was 588 million, creating a new low in the National Day trilogy.

And it's not just low, it's far from the 2.086 billion for "My Motherland and Me" and the 1.081 billion for "My Hometown and Me"!

It's just too low!

As for the reasons, there are many reasons.

One is that the director lineup of "Me and My Fathers" this time is a lot worse.

Take a look at the director lineup of "My Motherland and Me", as well as "My Hometown and Me", they are basically famous directors.

However, "Me and My Fathers", although there are two big directors Wu Jing and Xu Zheng in charge, but at the same time, two newcomer directors, International Zhang and Shen Pain, are also arranged.

Although the two of them have been very successful as actors, it is indeed the first time to serve as a director, and it is inevitable that it will not be satisfactory.

Especially the unit of "Youth Xing" directed by Shen Pain, both the script and the height are a little worse.

To be honest, this time "My Fathers and Me" did not do well at the box office, and Shen Wei should indeed bear the blame.

The second is that the plot is unreasonable!

The stories of the four units of "Me and My Fathers" this time seem to revolve around the theme of "fathers".

But in reality, it's still a bit off-topic.

For example, the unit of the international chapter "Poems" is actually more like a eulogy of great mothers than fathers.

Of course, if the "father's generation" is understood more broadly, the mother is naturally a generation that is included in it.

It's just that when the International Chapter and Huang Xuan appeared on the same stage, the aura of the International Chapter completely overshadowed Huang Xuan.

In the end, there is the unit of Shen Pain's "robot", which is a bit suspicious of forcibly sublimating the theme.

What child created the robot, and the robot saved the child, if this logic can be discussed with the standard duration of a movie, it should be okay.

But in just a few dozen minutes, the theme is not well depicted.

The third reason is also the most important reason, that is, the audience should be a little aesthetically tired of this kind of unit drama!

Seriously, when the first "My Motherland and Me" came out, it might be cool for the audience to see hundreds of stars in one movie.

But there is too much of a routine, especially the four unit stories of the whole movie, which have the passion of war, the tear-jerking of period dramas, and finally the surprise of small citizens, and the joy of science fiction films.

The style of the whole film is not uniform, and no matter how you look at it, this movie does not look like a complete movie, but like a platter-style messy stew.

Especially after watching Wu Jing's "Riding the Wind", the overall expression is still very cool, but the audience has just begun to enter the emotions of the movie.

Wu Jing's unit ended in a hurry, and this kind of movie-watching experience is really uncomfortable.

Especially the next plot is completely incompatible with Wu Jing's "Riding the Wind", which makes the audience feel disorganized.

So this is probably why "My Father and Me" was cold at the box office this time.

From the first "My Motherland and Me" box office of 2 billion in the first week, to the 1 billion of "Me and My Hometown", and then to the 588 million of "Me and My Fathers".

It is estimated that after "Me and My Fathers", there should be no more "Me and My XX" series!

It's really a routine that has been played too much, and it's a platter movie, and the audience is tired of it.

The box office performance is the best proof and the most convincing.

At the same time, a week after its release, the film reviews of "Changjin Lake" also appeared on major media and websites on a large scale.

Obviously, they are all here to rub the heat, and now that "Changjin Lake" is so popular, these media and film critics will definitely come to rub it off.

"Changjin Lake" uses an epic approach to show the whole picture of the Battle of Changjin Lake in a panoramic way.

From the landing of the US army at Inchon and the brazen crossing of the 38th parallel to the Sino-Korean border, to the volunteer army crossing the Yalu River to fight abroad to resist US aggression and aid Korea to defend the homeland and defend the country.

From the outbreak of the Battle of Changjin Lake on all fronts, the soldiers of the Chinese Volunteer Army inflicted heavy losses on the enemy, to the retreat of the American army after defeat and withdrawal from Xingnan Port.

The strength of the US military's equipment and the high morale of the Chinese volunteers have all been reflected.

In the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the volunteer army, which was extremely backward in weaponry, was in sharp contrast to the US army, which was armed to the teeth.

However, the Chinese People's Volunteers gradually reversed the situation of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea by virtue of their extraordinary tactical design and extraordinary will.

played the military prestige and national prestige, and became a well-deserved "king of infantry". ”

As a masterpiece of national spirit and patriotism, "Changjin Lake" has triggered a movie-watching boom.

Through the screen, light and shadow are intertwined, bringing the audience realistic battlefield cognition and deep emotional experience, which is the charm of the movie and the harmony of people's hearts.

The film reproduces the arduous battle of the 9th Corps in the Changjin Lake area in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.

It vividly interprets the strong will of the country and the strength of the nation, vigorously demonstrates the bloody heart of the Chinese soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country, and delicately depicts the feelings of the family and country and the national righteousness of the soldiers and soldiers of the volunteers.

In the film, the words of the martyrs are sonorous and hot, and they have been stirring in the hearts of every audience.

The strong contrast between the poetic mountains and rivers and the ruthless flames of war profoundly expresses the people's incomparable cherishment and expectation for a peaceful and beautiful new life, and deeply praises the great spirit of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea.

The enlightenment of "Changjin Lake" to the audience is: An awakened nation that dares to fight for the glory, independence and security of the motherland is invincible.

The great spirit of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea is a precious spiritual wealth, which will surely inspire the Chinese people and the Chinese nation to overcome all difficulties and dangers and defeat all powerful enemies. ”

……

Most of the media and film critics gave positive comments on "Changjin Lake", and felt that "Changjin Lake" made a shocking war scene.

and the spirit of Chinese soldiers sacrificing themselves for the country.

However, there are no complaints and bad reviews for "Changjin Lake".

For example, Chen Jing is a bit old, although there is indeed a difference of more than ten years with Wu Jing, but 90-year-old Chen Jing is 31 years old.

And the film is obviously intended to show a young soldier who grows up through the baptism of war.

Therefore, although Chen Jing still looks quite tender, she is somewhat disliked by others at her age.

However, in this regard, the investor obviously does not approve of it, as the king of the box office, even if Chen Jing is 40 years old, it is estimated that he is willing to let Chen Jing star, after all, it is all money!

Make money, don't chill!

In addition, "Changjin Lake" cares too much about the specific restoration and portrayal of war scenes, which can also be said to be the pursuit of visual effects, thus simplifying a battle into a battle.

The battle scene can even last for half an hour, but it rarely reflects that the winning point of this battle lies in the special terrain of Changjin Lake formulated by the volunteers to lure the enemy deep and divide and encircle him.

It only shows the battle, but does not show the big strategic ideas.

But even so, "Changjin Lake" is still mostly praised, and the audience also buys it.

It can be seen from the box office of "Changjin Lake" in the second week.

In the second week, which was also the first full seven-day week, "Changjin Lake" once again unstoppably hit the staggering box office of 2.689 billion yuan.

This box office also failed to break the box office record of the second week in film history, that is, the box office of 2.9 billion yuan of "Hello, Li Huanying".

But two weeks later, the cumulative box office of "Changjin Lake" has reached 4.516 billion yuan!

Chen Jing and Wu Jing Since "Wolf Warrior 2", no movie cooperated by the two has a box office of less than 4.5 billion, and this sentence has become a reality again.

The two are really platinum partners in the film industry!

And in the next week, among the 6 new films released, all of them are still three-no films, and none of them have box office potential.

Next week, there's a critically acclaimed Hollywood sci-fi movie, Dune.

However, now Hollywood movies are not as popular as before in the mainland, and they are not Marvel series, so it is estimated that the box office potential is not large.

So these can no longer affect the box office of "Changjin Lake" to break 5 billion.

Now it seems that "Changjin Lake" still has the hope of breaking the box office champion in film history that "Wolf Warrior 2" has occupied for 4 years!
