"Director Li Yang's "Whose Youth Is Not Confused" has been released at the box office in the first week!"

"8 million box office in the first week!"

A very good transcript was placed on Li Xiaoping's desk.

Don't look at Wu Yuan's movies, the daily box office is more than 20 million yuan, and "Wuji" is also a daily box office of 30 million, it seems that it is normal for mainland movies to break 10 million at the box office on the first day.

But in fact, this kind of "blockbuster" is only two or three a year.

Under normal circumstances, the daily box office of movies released in the mainland is only hundreds of thousands.

"Crazy Stone" became the dark horse of last year's box office, with a total box office of more than 20 million, and its first week box office was only more than 2 million.

After all, "Whose Youth Is Not Confused" spent three million before the premiere to do a wave of ground and online publicity, and the effect was very good, and it was able to achieve a box office of nearly 10 million in the first week.

Similarly, the film has a good reputation.

At a time when youth movies have not yet flooded, the theme of this movie is still novel, and it has evoked the youth memories of the post-70s, and the reputation is still very good for a week after its release, and the Douban score is as high as 8.0.

is the audience targeted by this movie, which is indeed a little smaller.

Only the post-70s generation can have a sense of substitution when they watch this movie, and it has to be a group of college students in the post-70s.

If it is an ordinary post-70s generation, who has never gone to college, or even high school, there is no way to substitute the college life of the leading actors in the movie and the college love that is so desperate that they love each other, and they don't understand why the heroine chooses to go abroad

Among the post-70s, there are really only a handful of people who have gone to college.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the post-70s college students are now the backbone of society, and they really have money in their pockets, and they are not stingy at all to spend some money to go to the cinema to watch a movie.

The movie "Whose Youth Is Not Confused" is spread verbally among the vast number of post-70s college students, although there is no way to achieve any outstanding single-day box office results.

What a single-day box office of 10 million, 20 million is unthinkable.

However, the daily box office performance is very stable, and the daily box office can steadily harvest about 1 million every day, and it can win two or three million single-day box office on weekends.

Judging from the current trend, it should be no problem to return to the cost.

It depends on whether the release of "Ink Attack" on November 23 will cause a siphon effect of blockbusters and suck up the box office market of other films in the same period.

Li Xiaoping is very worried about this.

However, Wu Yuan, who is still filming "Gravity", is not worried about this at all.

The current publicity offensive of "Ink Attack" is really fierce, spending a lot of money, inviting very multimedia overwhelming drafts, and various portals on the Internet are also frantically promoting this movie.

It seems that it is indeed menacing, the combination of Liu Dehua + Fan Xiaopang is indeed very attractive, and it is a cooperation between China, South Korea and Japan, led by Huayi, it can be said that the BUFF is full.

Any industry practitioner believes that this movie will become another blockbuster with a box office of over 100 million.

Don't care if you can recoup your investment, but the box office will definitely not be less than 100 million.

Because before "Ink Attack", this kind of superstar + big-investment movie has exceeded 100 million at the box office, and there is no example of failure.

Even if "Wuji" has a bad reputation, the box office is more than 100 million!

Only Wu Yuan knows that "Ink Attack", a movie that has been given high hopes by countless people, will only get a box office of 60 million in the end, and it will be bloodless, and it will not produce a blockbuster effect at all.

Those films that were released in order to avoid the movie "Ink Attack" have done useless work.

In the face of Li Xiaoping's worries, Wu Yuan comforted on the phone: "Don't be afraid, believe in Director Li, and believe in the movie "Whose Youth Is Not Confused". ”

"Our movie is not the same theme as "Ink Attack", and his release will not have any impact on us."

And it is exactly what he said.

Time has passed day after day, and the box office growth rate of "Whose Youth Is Not Confused" is still very stable, remaining at a daily box office of about one million.

Until November 22, the day before the release of "Ink Attack", "Whose Youth Is Not Confused" has won a box office of 23 million, not only recovering its roots, but also earning a lot.

Thanks to the good cooperative relationship with Toho before, Toho also took the initiative to negotiate, hoping to introduce the film to Japan for screening.

Japan is the largest market for youth films, but Japanese youth movies are very Japanese, telling stories of Japanese school life and youth experiences.

It's certainly not enough to say that Japanese movie fans are tired of watching it, but they do want to see the different youth of other countries.

Toho feels that "Whose Youth Is Not Confused" still has a market in Japan, and he doesn't dare to say how good the box office is, and there is still hope for more than one billion yen.

So they want to buy out the Japanese distribution rights of "Whose Youth Is Not Confused" at a price of 5 million yuan.

It's a fool not to make money if you have money, anyway, Wu Yuan is not optimistic that "Whose Youth is Not Confused" can make money in Japan, and the risk of buying out the score is even lower, so he immediately laughed at Dongbao's five million.

Hey, that's networking!

If you want to change to any other domestic film production company, there is no connection with Japanese film companies at all, and it is impossible for them to make their own films in the mainland, and Japanese film companies will take the initiative to buy films.

With the achievements of many of his films in Asia, Wu Yuan has gradually woven a network of contacts covering many Asian countries.

Not only Japan, but also South Korea, Singapore, and Malaysia have also come to inquire about the buyout of distribution rights.

In the end, the overseas distribution rights of "Whose Youth Is Not Confused" were sold for 10 million yuan at a fixed price.

The cost of "Whose Youth is Not Confused" paid off in a completely unexpected way for Li Xiaoping, and it also made a net profit of five million.

Even if the film is not released in China, it is impossible to lose money

"Director Wu, you really don't have to say anything about your influence." Li Xiaoping called Wu Yuan again and complimented him with great admiration.

Backed by a big director, and a big director with international influence, this film is really easy to sell.

Did those foreign film companies buy this movie because of Li Yang's name or the domestic box office of 23 million?

Of course not!

They all look at Wu Yuan's face!

On November 23rd, the overwhelmingly publicized "Ink Attack" held a grand premiere in Beijing.

At the premiere, the creators talked about how difficult it was for them to make this movie.

Lau Dehua injured the ligament in his left foot while filming a scene where a five-storey city tower flew down from the sky, and it needed to be repaired for a month.

In order to achieve the same effect as other fighters in the film, Fan Xiaopang smeared black foundation on her face every day, even so, she was still whiter than others in the camera with fair skin, so the makeup artist had to increase the amount of black foundation.

The name of the movie "Ink Attack" is a brush written by Andy Lau himself, after writing it for the first time, the director felt that there was a lack of domineering in it, Andy Lau didn't say a word and went back to write it again, this time after writing, the director liked it at a glance.

In order to get close to history, the filming team of "Ink Attack" built a set covering an area of 66,000 square meters in Hebei, using loess, trees, houses, and bricks to reproduce the ancient city, city walls, villages and prisons of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period 2,500 years ago.

In order to make the movie scene grand enough and "blockbuster" enough, 700 field troops and 150 extras were used to form various team forms in just one shot, and 400 horse divisions and horses were found locally to form a cavalry formation.

In addition, there are 40 professional action actors, 350 practitioners, and a total of thousands of people to complete the scene of the attack of the Zhao soldiers between the two mountains.

In order to shoot a good water prison hero saving the beauty scene, Liu Dehua and Fan Xiaopang soaked in the water all day when the water temperature was extremely low, and later they both caught a cold.

However, the complaints of the main creators of the crew are of no avail.

Although on the day of the premiere, "Ink Attack" still achieved a daily box office of 13 million, which is a good start.

However, by the next day, from the Internet to the media and newspapers, there were overwhelming negative reviews of the movie.

It was so badly filmed!

The themes are contradictory and the concepts are vague.

It does not really embody Mohist thought.

There are a lot of laughs, but there are too many big truths.

The story is foggy, so it is mysterious, and the plot is inconsistent.

The characters are abrupt, and the theme of the story is confusing.

Obviously, the story revolves around Mozi's idea of "both love and non-attack", but it is told in a mess, and if Mozi knows, I am afraid that he will sit up from the coffin angrily.

The impact of so many bad reviews is that the box office of "Ink Attack" was cut in half the next day, leaving only 6 million.

This made director Zhang Zhiliang and the main creators anxious.

Before "Ink Attack", whether it was "Wuji" or "Ambush on All Sides" or "Hero", as long as it was a large-scale movie with a high enough investment, the box office was not bad!

Even though there was a lot of criticism at the time of release, the box office was still strong.

But this guaranteed aura was broken in "Ink Attack".

Whether it is Liu Dehua or Fan Xiaopang, or the Korean superstar An Shengji and others in the crew, they are all calling on the Internet for everyone to go into the cinema to support this movie, and this movie is really not easy to make.

In the offline roadshow, the leading actors are also actively running, and a roadshow plan of 26 shows a month has been formulated, and the crew is divided into two teams, and the north and south run together at the same time.

However, these remedies did not work at all, and the box office of "Ink Attack" still hit new lows, and the momentum of spraying bad movies is getting bigger and bigger.

In comparison, "Whose Youth Is Not Confused", which is still being screened, is still very stable, and even after almost a month of release, the box office has increased a little, and the daily box office has reached about 1.2 million.

Although it is still not a big hit, before you know it, the cumulative box office has reached 33 million!

Because the audience of this movie is mainly the post-70s, and they have a successful career, at least they are mixed with the middle level of the company, they are not the kind of people who have a great desire to speak on the Internet.

Therefore, the public opinion momentum of this movie on the Internet is indeed not very large, and it is only limited to the post-70s generation, and it is also spread among the "elite class".

But the box office results are real.

"Ink Attack" not only did not have any negative impact on "Whose Youth Is Not Confused", but once again stimulated a wave of the box office of this movie.

This bizarre scene shocked Li Xiaoping's jaw.

Li Xiaoping made countless ideological preparations for the offensive of "Ink Attack", but "Ink Attack" fell so lightly?
