"Avatar?"

Liu Yifei was even more puzzled.

It is understandable that she said that this year's Chinese New Year stalls are fiercely competitive.

Zhang Yimou's "Three Guns Shooting Surprise" is set for December 18.

"Thorn Tomb" starring Lin Chilin and Jay Chou is also scheduled for December 18.

and Nicholas Tse, Liming, Liang Jiahui, Fan Xiaopang and other big names starring "October Siege" was also released on this day.

plus "Fengyun 2" on December 10, which has not yet been determined, but there is a high probability that the blockbuster "Confucius" will be released in December or January.

This year's Lunar New Year has at least five highly topical movies competing together.

This is not counting "2012" released in mid-November, "Mulan" released at the end of November and "Big Soldiers" and "Happy Events in the Flower Field 2010" during the Spring Festival.

It is indeed correct to say that this year is the first year of the explosion of mainland films.

In previous years, the Chinese New Year file plus the Spring Festival file was only three or five big-budget movies at most.

This year, the two schedules add up, and there are almost ten movies with big names, big topics, and high investment to be released.

Although "Walking with God" and "Painted Skin 2" are not inferior to these movies in terms of investment and topicality, Wu Yuan wants to avoid it, and Liu Yifei can understand it.

The main thing she doesn't understand is that in Wu Yuan's mouth, it seems that "Avatar" will also become a big threat to the Chinese New Year.

She doesn't think Cameron is good, of course Liu Yifei knows that Cameron is the top commercial film director in Hollywood and the king of the box office.

But this is Huaxia!

It's hard to say how much appeal Cameron has in China.

Except for "Titanic", Cameron's other movies have not been released in China.

And "Titanic" was already 12 years ago, and the current fans have already changed a batch, and his fame may not be as well-known as Feng Xiaogang in China.

Maybe "Avatar" can achieve good box office results in North America and even Europe, but in mainland China, it shouldn't be able to compete with these Chinese films in the Chinese New Year file, right?

After all, this is an outsider.

This is Liu Yifei's most simple idea.

After Wu Yuan heard her thoughts, the corners of his mouth curled, and he said inexplicably: "You'll know when the time comes." ”

Wu Yuan didn't plan to tell her that "Avatar" would sweep the box office of more than one billion yuan in the mainland.

If you say this, to be honest, no one will believe it at the moment, even if it is Wu Yuan.

I don't dare to write like that.

But sometimes the reality is more outrageous.

"Anyway, "Walking with God" and "Painted Skin 2" are on one October and one in November, which is just right."

"October is the National Day file that the company is trying to expand, and after several years of expansion, now the National Day file is also quite popular, and it can afford a blockbuster."

"Although November is before the Lunar New Year, it has always been regarded as a warm-up for the Lunar New Year, whether it is "2012" or "Mulan", it will not affect the release of "Painted Skin 2".

"I believe that these two films will achieve a good box office result, and maybe they can refresh the box office of "Gravity"!"

"Now the domestic market potential is huge!"

Two days later, Liu Yifei and Wu Yuan completed the activities of Paris Fashion Week.

"It's finally time to go home and rest!" Liu Yifei cheered.

For her, a salted fish, this period of high-intensity work is really exhausting.

From the filming of "Ace Agent" to the filming of "Interstellar" to the Venice Film Festival and Paris Fashion Week, she did not rest for eight or nine months in a row, and only traveled with Wu Yuan for a few days after work.

This is really high-intensity for Liu Yifei, who only filmed one film a year and attended less than ten activities in the past.

"You can rest well for the rest of the while." Wu Yuan also smiled and comforted: "Except for the premieres of the two movies that need you to attend, by the first half of next year, you shouldn't have any work, right?" ”

"That's not going to happen." Liu Yifei shook his head: "Some endorsement activities, advertising shooting, and magazine shooting still have to be done." ”

"But these jobs are not busy, four or five days a month should be enough, and the rest of the time can be rested."

"Then do you want to come to the United States to see me when you are free?" Wu Yuan said expectantly.

He is going to the United States next to do the later stage of "Interstellar", at least he will not return to China before the year, and he has to do it in one go.

"Hmm" Liu Yifei's eyes rolled, he reached out and pinched Wu Yuan's cheek, and said with a smile: "It depends on your performance~"

The next day, the two took separate flights to China and the United States, and started a long-distance relationship.

Wu Yuan was busy doing the later stage, leaving all other irrelevant work and things behind.

And Liu Yifei replaced Wu Yuan in China and attended some work that he couldn't attend.

On September 30, the day before the National Day, "Walking with God" held a huge premiere in Beijing, and Liu Yifei attended on behalf of Wu Yuan.

After the premiere was held, the film was released nationwide on October 1.

In the early morning of the first hour, "Walking with God" won a box office of 8 million, breaking the box office record in the first hour in the mainland.

As a movie with family feelings as its biggest selling point, "Walking with God" is actually a movie suitable for the whole family to watch together, although it is under the banner of magic and fantasy movies.

On the day of the premiere, with Zhang Guorong's appeal and the name of the fantasy blockbuster, the box office won 46 million on the same day, although it did not refresh the box office record on the first day, but it was also an extremely excellent result.

And the audience who watched the movie on the first day also expressed their opinions on the movie on the Internet for the first time.

"Remember to bring enough tissues before you go to the movies!"

"What about the fantasy movie, why is it so tear-jerking!"

"It's such a touching mother's love, Jin Dahong is really miserable, and the hemp rope is broken in detail."

"I originally thought this was a special effects film like "Painted Skin", but I didn't expect it to be a tear-jerking blockbuster!"

On Douban, on the day "Walking with God" opened, it received thousands of short reviews and hundreds of long stories, with a score of 8.1.

Although there are only a few people who will choose to evaluate and score on Douban after watching the movie, this rating and word-of-mouth can also be seen that this movie is indeed of high quality.

On the second and third days of its release, the box office of "Walking with God" continued to rise, and the box office broke 100 million in the first weekend, becoming the most watched movie in this National Day file.

In the second week, the box office of "Walking with God" continued to grow, with a cumulative box office of 240 million in 7 days, successfully pushing the total box office to more than 300 million.

However, at this point, the box office of this movie has also entered a stable period, and the box office only received more than 80 million in the third week, and the total box office barely exceeded 400 million.

Judging from the current box office trend, it should be no problem for "Walking with God" to surpass "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" released in September.

After several years of development, now the domestic film market has finally grown, and movies with a box office of more than 100 million or even 200 million or 300 million are becoming more and more common and common.

And the popularity of "Walking with God" has just come down a little, and the next "Painted Skin 2" is about to be released again!

The mainland film market in October and November 2009 has completely become the world of the era of light and shadow! (End of chapter)
