Changcheng.

A famous cultural city with a long history.

Also known as Hongcheng, Hongdu, Yuzhang and Hero City.

In the preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion, "New Mansion of Hongdu, Former Residence of Yuzhang" is the ancient origin of Changcheng.

The name of the Hero City needs no further introduction. During the August 1st Uprising, the Chinese people took the first shot at becoming the masters of their own country!

Fang Ziheng and Liu Ye drove a car and traveled lightly. They first arrived at Tengwang Pavilion, the first of the three famous buildings in Jiangnan.

Liu Ye was also very popular in poetry. He used his mobile phone to read "Preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion" and read it loudly while standing on the top floor, attracting the attention of many tourists.

Then the two went to Changcheng History Museum, Haihunhou Site, Xishan Wanshou Palace, and August 1st Memorial Hall.

It wasn't until six o'clock in the evening that the two of them returned to the hotel with unfinished business.

night.

Fang Ziheng organized the New Year's Eve dinner and took the vanguard of the "The Founding of the Army" crew to prepare several tables.

There are hundreds of people in the scenery team, props team, explosion team, and equipment team.

After dinner that night, Fang Ziheng originally wanted to book a movie theater for everyone to watch, so as to contribute to the box office of "Journey to the West: Conquer the Demons".

As a result, I was told by an employee who went to the cinema in the afternoon that "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" was too popular and I couldn't buy tickets at all.

Not to mention booking the venue, it’s hard to get sporadic tickets unless you find scalpers.

Speaking of which, although the first day of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" cannot break the record of the first day of "The Great Wall", it is still no problem to break 100 million.

Just from the tracking reports on the Internet, we can see the popularity of the movie. Cinemas across the country were almost full.

If "The Great Wall" is included, the film market this year and next will reach unprecedented highs.

The single-day market is expected to exceed 200 million box office!

Fang Ziheng received a text message from Lin Feifei, saying that the number of users of Hengyu Maoyan APP has increased dramatically in the past two days and will soon exceed 40 million registered users.

In the winter, movie fans are unwilling to queue up in movie theaters to grab tickets. Most of them choose to buy tickets online.

In the early morning of February 8, the first-day box office of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" was released.

Without any surprise, the box office on the first day exceeded 100 million.

108.6 million!

The fourth Chinese-language film to have a box office of over 100 million on its first day.

At this moment, the appeal of the King of Comedy is undoubtedly revealed!

After receiving the data, Fang Ziheng smiled with satisfaction, then turned off the light and went to bed.

The movie got off to a successful start, with subsequent publicity and follow-up from the distribution department, so he hardly had to worry about it.

"The Great Wall" is also very good, with crazy harvest, once again hitting the box office of more than 58 million yuan in a single day.

Counting the three days of February 4th, 5th, and 6th, the total box office easily exceeded 1.1 billion, reaching 1.167 billion.

In one day at most, "The Great Wall" can hit 1.2 billion.

Hengyu Media participated in both movies, and they were both successful Lunar New Year films and the best winners in the Spring Festival film.

Just when Fang Ziheng fell asleep peacefully.

There are also more and more movie reviews on the Internet about "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons".

The character of Sun Wukong in the movie is regarded by countless viewers as Stephen Chow talking about himself and is a true portrayal of him in reality.

Douban column film review: "Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, a man of great power who shocked the world and wept ghosts and gods. He was trapped under the Wuzhi Mountain for five hundred years. Looking back, he is already old, his high-spiritedness is no longer there, and his handsomeness is no longer there.

When the author first saw Huang Bo's image on the screen, he immediately shouted in his heart: Master Xing, this character is the incarnation of Master Xing, and the self in Master Xing's heart."

Chief film critic of Huaguo Movie Network: "From Starboy, Star Brother, Star Master to the King of Comedy, Stephen Chow has experienced the sadness of almost all the bottom workers in the film and television industry. At that time, he moved forward bravely, without scruples, and dedicated a movie to the audience.

Another classic movie.

After ascending to the altar, Mr. Xing was hailed as the King of Comedy by the public. Looking back, he found that he could only recall the past, and his lovers, friends, and partners around him left him one by one.

Master Xing has endless strength, but it is difficult to express the regret in his heart, leaving only loneliness and sadness!"

Weibo new media film review: "In "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons," rather than saying that Stephen Chow is bottling new wine in an old bottle, it is better to say that he is narrating himself. The once invincible God of War Sun Wukong, who once fought against the heavens and the earth, is bald and white-haired. How is he different from the current Star Master?

resemblance."

Southern Urban Entertainment: "Stephen Chow is getting old. As can be seen from "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", comedy is the surface and regret is the bone. He is missing the beauty he once lost and the sincere feelings he lost with his own hands!"

The media boasted a lot and identified the Monkey King in the movie as Stephen Chow's own portrayal.

Movie fans have another view, thinking that Tang Monk is the star himself, and believe that the entire movie is paying tribute to one person.

A woman has passed away that he can never let go of in his life.

Including the lines of the movie, the name of the heroine, and the time of the movie's release, the woman is commemorated from the beginning to the end.

Especially that woman said she wanted to get married and have a child with Stephen Chow.

In the movie and in reality, Stephen Chow's answer is exactly the same!

The words "You must be crazy" made him regret for the rest of his life.

The departure of that woman made him unable to forgive himself for the rest of his life, and regarded it as a lifelong regret.

Two kinds of comments are circulating on the Internet at an alarming speed.

Stephen Chow's past in his early years was once again uncovered by the audience who had vast powers.

Huge traffic.

Wave after wave of topic discussions.

This made "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" even more popular, and the feelings previously promoted resurfaced in the hearts of netizens and audiences.

No matter what the movie tells, Master Xing is indeed old.

As a movie fan and an audience who likes his movies, I can only support him and give him my last movie ticket.

The next two days.

"Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" continues its efforts and shows its strong box office longevity.

New Year’s Day: 98 million.

The second day of the Lunar New Year: 95 million.

After three days of release, the total box office was 301.6 million, creating the best start for Stephen Chow's solo films.

Imperial Capital.

The residence of Wang Zhongjun, Chairman of Huayi.

Early in the morning, this guy got up from his bed and leisurely put on his baseball cap and went out for a morning run.

These past few days can be said to be the happiest days for him, Wang Zhongjun, in more than half a year.

In addition to the listing of Hua Yi that year, "Tang Shang Earthquake" was the main producer, "Chinatown Detective" and "Edge of Tomorrow" were released.

It was the release of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" that brought him the biggest surprise.

300 million in three days!

Once upon a time, this kind of elusive movie box office was always the exclusive domain of Fang Ziheng and Hengyu Media.

Hua Yikong has the first name in Chinese film and television. I can only watch with helpless eyes and drool with envy.

Now, it’s finally Hua Yi’s turn!

Stephen Chow is worthy of being the king of comedy. A renovated version of "Journey to the West" can achieve such amazing results.

Wang Zhongjun jogged back and forth in the villa area twice, took a shower in a happy mood, and then made himself tea.

While waiting for my wife's breakfast, I happily opened the Hengyu Maoyan APP to check the latest trends of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons".

From time to time, he would click on Weibo and browse hot searches and movie reviews on the Internet.

So cool!

"Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" may not be able to beat "The Great Wall" in total box office, but it doesn't matter, his requirements are not high.

Breaking one billion is enough!

According to his prediction, the stock market was closed during the Chinese New Year, which was just the time for "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" to hit the box office.

It seems that it cannot beat "The Great Wall", but it can firmly occupy the publicity market.

When the stock market opens after the year, news of the movie's success will instantly boost Huayi's stock price.

This time, no one can prevent Huayi’s total market value from exceeding 60 billion.

No one can!

Wang Zhongjun looked excited and confident.
