On November 2, Huayi announced the first-day box office results of "Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire" through the media.

16,122,700.

If you compare "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree", this result is already very good, but if you compare it with "The Great Earthquake" and "Heart Flower Road", it is simply a mess of abuse!

Some media focused on what Chen Fei said at the premiere.

"Over 300 million, chasing 400 million ......"

According to the first-day box office data released by Huayi, the final result should be not much different from what Chen Fei said.

For a while, the word "to the point" suddenly circulated in the film circle.

Roughly speaking, Chen Fei's analytical ability is extremely strong, and he can accurately predict the box office situation after the movie is released every time.

After hearing this, Jiang Wenle called and asked him to help analyze the final box office situation of "Let the Bullets Fly".

Chen Fei didn't give him an accurate data, but said that there might be a big surprise at that time, so that he could be mentally prepared.

For a while, Jiang Wen's heart was a little confused......

Wang Changtian also joined in the excitement, and specially invited Chen Fei to go to the light to watch part of the negatives of "Painted Wall" that had been filmed, hoping that he could give some guidance.

After reading it, Chen Fei was silent for a while, but in the end he didn't hit him.

"Mr. Wang, before the finished film and post-production special effects are all done, this is actually difficult to judge, but judging from the effect of this part of the negative, it will definitely not lose money......"

"That's good, just don't lose money, haha, brother, it's rare for you to come once, go, brother has a treat, don't get drunk tonight!"

Although he didn't get the answer he wanted, the four words "won't lose money" were enough to make Wang Changtian so excited that he couldn't sleep.

The previous investment in several movies has lost a lot of money, and it is finally possible to have a project that does not lose money, which is already a good start.

But in fact, there are many things that Chen Fei did not say later, such as:

"It's just a YY story of visiting a kiln, and the investment is pitiful, and the special effects stalls selected are not high, so how can you expect it to make a lot of money?"

Although "Painted Wall" has rubbed a lot of popularity of "Painted Skin", the difference between the two is simply the difference between the two, not to mention the others, the former's thin story line is destined not to get much box office.

Perhaps in order to please Chen Fei, Wang Changtian also deliberately called a group of people from the crew of "Painted Wall" into the box and took turns to toast him.

Chen Fei subconsciously raised his head and saw Zheng Yan in the crowd at a glance

If you put aside the defects in character, if you talk about appearance alone, she and Jing Tian should be regarded as the same grade.

Both of them belong to the "little fairy" level in the eyes of fans.

It's just that the character can't be ignored, and the girl will eventually become the crazy critic who lies and has an unstable mental state!

Chen Fei still clearly remembers that when he was in Hengdian, he saw Zheng Yan playing with Zhang Han in the palm of his hand, and that method was simply clever!

"Senior, I toast you."

Zheng Yan held the wine glass, pretending to be a pure little white flower, and timidly came up to say hello, fantasizing that he could get Chen Fei's attention.

Her requirements are not high, she just wants Chen Fei to be able to remember her name.

And the reason why she didn't introduce herself was to let Chen Fei take the initiative to ask her, so that the two could chat a few words, which naturally deepened her image in his mind.

However, to her despair, she didn't get any response, only a nod.

Before she could say anything, Liu Yan next to her squeezed her aside, completely putting an end to her daydreaming.

……

Huayi's side is obviously not satisfied with the current box office results of "Di Renjie", so he once again increased his publicity efforts.

The effect is still there, and after the third day of screening, the total box office successfully exceeded 70 million!

There was a cheer on the Internet, creating a sign of a big win.

It's a pity that on the fourth day, it was beaten back to its original form......

While filming "Gravity", Chen Fei took the initiative to pay attention to the comments on the Internet, especially the articles of those film critics.

A doctor from Zhejiang University published an article saying: "There are many religious factors in the scene arrangement of the film, such as the "Tongtian Futu" of Buddhism, the "Mingtang" of Confucianism, the "Wuji View" of Taoism and the church, outlining the coexistence of multiple religions at that time.

This novel special effects display is very good, the picture is magnificent, quite beautiful, and worthy of praise!

It's a pity that the portrayal of these buildings is only superficial, and does not show its deeper meaning, such as the display of the Ming Hall does not reflect the meaning of its ancestors through the sky, and the 12 zodiac statues in the Wuji View are not in line with the historical arrangement, which is easy to mislead the audience to a certain extent......"

Professor Yin of Tsinghua University said: "This film can be seen as a collection of Xu Ke's own style, with eerie scenes and strange character shapes reflecting his unique expressiveness.

Of course, here we also have to name and praise the "Dotting Digital", scenes such as fighting with the deer and the collapse of the Buddha have a strong visual impact, which is worthy of being the first special effects company in the mainland, and it really deserves its name!

The only pity is that the film shows the characteristics of tending to utilitarianism, mixing martial arts, suspense, history and other genres, forming a mixed film aesthetic, but also causing a lack of overall sense ......"

Seeing this, Chen Fei knew that this wave was absolutely stable, and the name of "Dianjing Digital" could be regarded as completely out!

And the feedback from Su Guohai also confirmed his guess, the movie was only released for three days, and the orders of the special effects department skyrocketed!

"Mr. Chen, someone wants to do special effects and asks if we can get credit."

"Who?" Chen Fei was a little confused, could it be an acquaintance again?

Su Guohai briefly introduced, "The other party seems to be called Juli Pictures, and the movie he made is called "The Legend of the White Snake", and he also invited Li Lianlian to make a cameo, claiming to invest 200 million ......"

Juli Pictures?

Hearing this name, Chen Fei was immediately happy.

Isn't this the shoehorn's face, and he only signed a contract with Huang Shengyi, which can be described as Sima Zhao's heart - everyone knows it!

"Invest up to 200 million yuan and do special effects on credit? What do you think? When we run a welfare home, huh? ”

Chen Fei refused without even thinking about it, doing special effects on credit? I really think I'm a dish.

With such a face, why don't you go and drive an aircraft carrier?

……

On November 5th, "Twilight 5" held a grand premiere in North America!

As for how big it is, this can refer to the Oscars of each year.

Although Chen Fei did not invite his friends in his personal name, everyone still came to the scene very tacitly, adding a lot of popularity to this premiere.

"Huh? Leon? What's wrong with you? Dumped by your girlfriend? ”

Leonardo, who is usually enthusiastic and likes to talk to female stars the most, is surprisingly wilted today, as if his body has been hollowed out.

"Well, don't mention it." Xiao Lizi sighed, obviously not wanting to answer this question.

However, how could Matt Damon on the side give up the opportunity to joke about his friends?

He suddenly laughed strangely and said, "Fei, did you know that Kate and her husband are divorced. ”

Well?!

Chen Fei's eyes widened violently, his face full of disbelief.

During the filming of "Inception", Kate Winslet's husband also went to work several times, and the couple behaved quite sweetly, why did they divorce suddenly?

He suddenly seemed to think of something, turned his head to look at Leonardo suddenly, and said with some surprise: "Leon, you... You're not going to be someone else's third party, are you? Don't you only like those under 26? How can you meddle in someone else's marriage? ”

“Oh！ No！ I didn't! ”

It's a matter of reputation, and Xiao Lizi will finally be unable to sit still.

Matt Damon held back a smile and helped explain, "Actually, the reason is still that "Revolutionary Road", when Leon and Kate had a very exciting bed scene in it...... Well, you get the ......

Then Kate's ex-husband happened to be the director of the play, and he didn't say anything during the filming at the time, but soon after the filming, the two broke out and ended the marriage completely. ”

Chen Fei: "??? ”

Made, I'm afraid that this person didn't temporarily awaken some cuckold fetish when he was making a movie? And then when the shoot is over, it resumes?

Leonardo sighed, his face full of depression, "I drank too much that night, and when I went out and met the media, I was dizzy and admitted that it was because of me, which led to the end of their marriage......"

Chen Fei: "......"

Therefore, public figures should try not to drink too much, because you never know what will happen after drinking!

is like Xiao Lizi, who has now become a "third party" who intervenes in other people's marriages in the eyes of the media.

Of course, Hollywood's attention to this kind of news won't last long, so there's no need for any crisis PR.

What's more, Xiao Lizi's image doesn't need to engage in this kind of crisis public relations, and changing different women is already a major feature of him, because his character is ...... Abusive!

At the same time, at the same time that Volton Pictures held the world premiere of "Twilight 5", the midnight show in China had already begun.

At that meeting in October, the main creative team had already gone to China to promote it once, and Chen Fei also came forward to run a few activities at that time, and now he is waiting for the final box office results.

Naturally, there is no need to think too much about the amount of films, dozens of domestic theaters have followed Chen Fei to eat and drink spicy food in recent years, and now of course I have to express it.

According to the news obtained by Chen Fei, all the 3D shows and IMAX giant screen theaters in China have now been replaced by "Twilight 5", and those pseudo-3D have all been removed from the shelves, and the theater line has expressed full sincerity to him with practical actions.

At this time, the North American premiere was held, and the screening had already begun.

The movie still adheres to the characteristics of grand scenes and beautiful scenes, and everyone's acting skills are all online, showing a very high degree of sincerity.

The villain appeared strongly at the beginning, giving people a strong sense of suffocation, which made the fans at the scene tremble.

But in the end, with the rapid growth of the protagonist group, the villain finally died under the night sky!

As the last installment of the Twilight series, Chen Fei set a tone at the beginning of the script design, and he must make fans feel that this is a qualified finale.

Old man Woody Allen did not disappoint him, and the happy ending met everyone's expectations.

At the end of the screening, there was thunderous applause, which was also accompanied by bursts of sobbing.

4 years is enough time for the girl who was deeply involved in the sweet love of "Edward" and "Bella" in high school to grow up.

And with the release of "Twilight 5", youth is also equivalent to a successful end, and "feelings" have exploded with extremely powerful power at this moment!

Because the release time in the mainland was half a day earlier than Hollywood, Chen Fei took the lead in getting the box office results of "Twilight 5" on the first day in the mainland.

"3D field + IMAX giant screen theater field + ordinary 2D, the total first-day box office is 190 million yuan."

On the other end of the phone, Han Sanping looked at the box office data in his hand, and his eyes were complicated.

He originally thought that "Inception" and "Heart Flower Road" were already very awesome, but he didn't expect that there was a big bomb waiting for him in the back!

"Okay." Chen Fei answered and was about to hang up the phone.

"Hey, you wait!" Han Sanping hurriedly called out to him, and asked in a very expectant tone: "With such a high first-day box office, do you think it is possible to break the 1.5 billion of "Inception"?" ”

In 2010, the total box office in the mainland was 1.5 billion to break through 10 billion, and Han Sanping has issued a military order to the bureau, and it must break 10 billion this year!

Although there is a Chinese New Year file behind, it is absolutely no problem to break 10 billion, but this thing must be broken as soon as possible, the more it can show his political achievements during his reign, so he set his goal on "Twilight 5".

It's a pity that Chen Fei gave him a negative answer without hesitation, "For this kind of fan-oriented movie, the early data is usually very high, but it will definitely usher in a wave of halving in the later stage."

There may be hope for breaking 1 billion, but breaking 1.5 billion is estimated to be hopeless. ”

Han Sanping was not the slightest unhappy, "Hey, it's okay to break 1 billion!" The next 500 million will make up for "Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire" and "New Shaolin Temple"? ”

"Okay, it's good if you're happy, it's still early on my side, you're busy, I'll sleep again."

Chen Fei shrugged his shoulders and hung up the phone directly.

Putting down the phone, Han Sanping happily called the secretary and asked him to report this data.

And when the number of 190 million box office on the first day appeared on major film and television information websites, a group of people in the industry were stunned on the spot!

"? 190 million on the first day? Are you kidding? ”

Wang Zhonglei held the new box office data of "Di Renjie" in his hand, and saw that the words 9 million were written on it, which was only enough for a "small fraction" of "Twilight 5".

Even if it is the sum of the box office data in these 5 days, it is only enough for a "big fraction" of others.

What a piece of!

Wang Zhongjun behind the desk couldn't help but roll his eyes, "You have nothing to do?" Compare with "Twilight 5" at the box office? Isn't our analogy to this kind of 3D Hollywood blockbuster? ”

For a while, Wang Zhonglei was speechless.

It's really uncomfortable to think about it, and I don't even have the qualifications to compare!

The data in North America was a little later than in China, and it wasn't until the afternoon of the 6th that Chen Fei received a call from Natasha.

"Fei, I think we should prepare for the celebration feast."

"Oh?" Chen Fei raised his eyebrows, and suddenly had some expectations, "Is the box office result on the first day very high?" ”

Because November is not a hot time in Hollywood, and there are no other blockbusters competing with "Twilight 5" in the same period, the scale of opening in North America is the same as in China, and it is almost full!

The amount of 4,500 halls is almost the highest ever recorded in North America!

You know, even "Inception" and "Avatar" don't have such a high scale of opening!

"Not very high, very high!" Natasha shouted exaggeratedly, and then said word by word: "The box office on the first day: 150 million US dollars!" ”

"it!"

Rao is Chen Fei no matter how calm he is, but he was also taken aback by this number.

"Inception" will be 120 million US dollars, which has broken many film history records, and now "Twilight 5" has a 150 million US dollars, this horse is about to take off!

"Wait for me, I'll go to the company now."

pushed away Gal Gadot, who was holding himself coquettishly, Chen Fei quickly got dressed and rushed out of the door.

Woman?

You're only going to affect how quickly I can draw my sword!

……

Coming to Walton Pictures, as expected, Chen Fei enjoyed another wave of ceremonial rain.

Mr. Woody Allen is also in the company today, with a cigar in his mouth, and he feels like he is letting himself go.

Everyone gathered in the conference room, and called the people from the data analysis department to make a very detailed calculation according to the market situation.

"It's easy to break 1 billion dollars, but it's impossible to break the 1.852 billion dollars of Inception."

Of course, although the result did not meet expectations, breaking 1 billion dollars is already a very good ending, and no one will be dissatisfied with it.

"The next thing we need to face is the impact of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and the Tangled, and I hope we can stay ahead of the curve and lay a happy ending for the Twilight series, are you confident?" ”

In the next second, a roar erupted in the conference room.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

After returning to the office from the conference room, Chen Fei got a new data report from his secretary, which marked the box office results of "Captain Mi".

North America: $276 million.

Global: $579 million.

This score is slightly worse than "Thor", but if you compare it with other movies in the same period, it is a terrible mess!

Chen Fei nodded with great satisfaction and muttered to himself, "Then the next thing is "The Avengers" and "The Hunger Games". ”

The former's preparations are in the final stages to meet his needs to start filming in December.

The release date of the latter is set for December 24, which is the day of Christmas.

In head-to-head competition with The Hunger Games are 20th Century Fox's "Chronicles of Narnia 3: Dawn Treader" and Disney's "Tron: Chronicles".

The former will be released on December 9, and the latter on December 17.

Both of these films were released earlier than "The Hunger Games", so it is likely that they will take away a large wave of audiences, but Chen Fei is not too worried.

The structure of a Hollywood blockbuster is very simple, it is special effects + quality.

And in these two aspects, Chen Fei is not worthy of Disney and Twentieth Century Fox!

Get on the bayonet!

Click and you're done!
