Chapter 809: Pre-sale Box Office, Movie Fan Parade(1/2)
Entertainment: Gambit and National Priest announced the latest chapter
;;;;Liao Xuezong said with a smile: "Director Su, don't tell me, there are really people who are not afraid of death."
;;;;Su Changde was stunned and asked: "Who is it?"
;;;;Liao Xuezong replied: "Warner's "Out of the Solar System" wants to be released on July 8, and the application has just been submitted."
;;;; Su Changde said with a smile: "Warner is making a mistake. After "Zhu Xian 2" is released on July 2, most other movies will be released after the 12th. Warner has made a time difference."
;;;;"After all, no matter how good "Zhu Xian 2" is, fans will not be able to watch this movie all the time. As long as "Out of the Solar System" can reach second place in reputation, then it will definitely become one of those who watch it.
For fans of Zhu Xian, here’s the second choice.”
;;;;"Hahaha, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, but traveling to the tiger mountains, Warner dares to take chestnuts from the fire. It seems that no CEO is simple."
;;;;Liao Xuezong said: "The question is whether it will be successful or not. It's really hard to say. If "Zhu Xian 2" remains popular for half a month, then Warner Bros. will be in serious trouble."
;;;;"Then it depends on Warner's luck!" Su Changde said: "By the way, I heard that the re-release of "Zhu Xian 1" in the Lighthouse Country did not go well. Is this true?"
;;;; Liao Xuezong nodded and said: "Of the fifty states in the Lighthouse Country, only twenty-seven states have issued re-screening licenses for "Zhu Xian 1", and the others have not agreed. This matter has hardened these states.
Fans were so dissatisfied that they made a big fuss online."
;;;;Su Changde said: "Lighthouse Country is a country that has been kidnapped by capital. No matter how dissatisfied these movie fans are, it is of no use."
;;;;While Su Changde and Liao Xuezong were discussing this matter, Zhang Xiao was also having a video conversation with Disney CEO Herman about this matter.
;;;;"Twenty-three states cannot screen it, which is really beyond my expectation."
;;;;Herman said: "The reason why Mr. Zhang and other states made such a decision is that they have the shadows of the other four Hollywood giants behind them."
;;;;Zhang Xiao said disdainfully: "A bunch of rats know how to use this unattractive method. Herman, is there any way to get a screening license?"
;;;;"It's difficult!" Herman said: "Unless "Zhu Xian 1" can obtain excellent pre-sale box office and trigger demonstrations by movie fans in other states, it is possible to force the relevant departments to agree to the screening."
;;;;"It doesn't matter!" Zhang Xiao nodded and said: "The most important thing for us is the box office of "Zhu Xian 2". Now that the trailer has been released, right? What do the fans in the Lighthouse Country think of this trailer?
What’s the review like?”
;;;;Herman said with a smile: "The number of views on the trailer has just exceeded 50 million. Fans have rated it very highly and hope that "Zhu Xian 2" can be released as soon as possible."
;;;;Zhang Xiao said: "That's good."
;;;;There is still one week left before the re-release of "Zhu Xian 1", and the pre-sale channel for the movie has already opened.
;;;;The ticket price in China and Asian countries is 25 yuan, the ticket price in North America is five dollars, and the ticket price in other parts of Europe is four euros. Compared with newly released movies, this price is already low.
half.
;;;;After all, it is a re-release of an old movie, so if the ticket price is too expensive, it would be inappropriate.
;;;;What no one expected was that this movie, which had only been released for more than a year, would rank first at the global pre-sale box office when it was re-released.
;;;;In just three days, the pre-sale box office of "Zhu Xian 1" in China and other Asian countries has reached 150 million in US dollars, and the pre-sale box office in European countries has reached 180 million euros.
Equivalent to US$220 million.
;;;; Since there are still 23 states in the Lighthouse Country that have not issued film screening licenses for "Zhu Xian 1", the pre-sale box office in North America is only 70 million US dollars.
;;;;Including Australia and other regions, the total pre-sale box office of Zhang Xiao's "Zhu Xian 1" reached 478 million US dollars.
;;;;As soon as this data came out, the world was in an uproar.
;;;;"Oh my God, what do I see?"
;;;;"It has achieved nearly 500 million U.S. dollars in pre-sale box office in three days, and it is a movie that has already been released. This is simply a miracle."
;;;;"I have watched "Zhu Xian 1" many times on the Internet, but I still couldn't hold it back, so I bought another movie ticket, only to find that all my friends around me had bought it."
;;;;"There are more than thirty choices for next week, but the movie "Zhu Xian" is always my favorite."
;;;; "The pre-sale box office of "Zhu Xian 1" is so high, it is hard to imagine how terrifying the pre-sale box office of "Zhu Xian 2" will reach."
;;;;"As soon as "Zhu Xian" came out, he was invincible."
;;;;"The box office of "Zhu Xian 1" last year has reached 5.5 billion US dollars. If it reaches 1.5 billion US dollars this year, its total box office will be 7 billion US dollars. It is simply amazing.
Already."
;;;;"I suspect that after the re-release of "Zhu Xian 1", the total global box office will exceed 2 billion US dollars."
;;;;“···”
;;;; Zhang Xiao himself did not expect that "Zhu Xian 1" could achieve such a good pre-sale box office.
;;;;I don’t know that since June, the Chinese film market has entered a stage of competition among heroes. Films from various countries have entered major theaters one after another. Among Hollywood films alone, there were 8 films in June.
In addition to movies from Europe, Asia and China, a total of 32 movies were released in June. This is far more intense than the Spring Festival period.
;;;;Unfortunately, the performance of domestic films in this competition is not very satisfactory. The highest box office is "The Fire Chaser" invested by Qingtian Entertainment and starring Liu Huade and Chen Yibin, but it only ranked third
4 places.
;;;;The third place is the Hollywood action blockbuster "Lethal Weapon", and the second place is the World War II blockbuster "In the Field of War", also from Hollywood.
;;;;What is surprising is that the movie with the best box office and reputation is actually a movie from Asan Kingdom with a very simple name, "Wrestling". This movie scored 9.48 on a certain website, and the box office on the first day was
It wasn't very high, but as word of mouth grew, it managed to take in a box office of 567 million on the third day, surpassing the second place "The Wilderness of War" that day by a full 120 million.
;;;;You must know that the production and publicity cost of the movie "In the Field of War" is said to have reached 420 million U.S. dollars, and the cost of the movie "Lethal Weapon" also exceeded 200 million U.S. dollars. But Asanguo's "Wrestling"
"This movie cost only 26 million U.S. dollars. It can be said that the cost of the three movies differed by thousands of miles, but it was "Wrestle" that won in the end, which surprised people in the industry.
;;;;Although none of the domestic films ranked among the top three at the box office, they occupied four of the top ten, and still had the upper hand in terms of total volume.
;;;;Everyone thought that this would be the result, but they never expected that when the old movie "Zhu Xian 1" was released, it would break out of the siege and wipe out the decline of domestic movies.
It has earned some face for Chinese films.
;;;;Beijing Tianjing Dihua Zoo.
;;;;Zhang Xiao's family, Yu Qian's family, Li Liangjie's family, Wu Jin's family plus three big names in the film industry, Chen Daoming, Liu Huade and Chen Yibin, a total of fourteen people, sat around on the lawn and started eating.
barbecue.
;;;;Chen Daoming took a sip of beer, looked at the little animals running back and forth, and said: "You guys really know how to enjoy it. If there is such a party in the future, you must call me!"
;;;;Chef Zhang Xiao put a large handful of grilled mutton skewers on the plate and said, "Teacher Chen, don't you like to participate in wine parties?"
;;;;Chen Daoming explained: "A wine party is a wine party, and a party is a party. They cannot be confused."
;;;;Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "Okay, you can say whatever you like, Mimi, these are the potatoes I roasted specially for Xiao Xinxin, you can feed her some."
;;;;Yang Mi took it, walked to Xiao Xinxin, and said: "Baby, come and eat potatoes."
;;;;Wu Jin said: "I also want to eat potatoes."
;;;;Zhang Xiao rolled his eyes at him and said angrily: "If you want to eat it, go bake it yourself. I don't have time to wait for you."
;;;;Liu Huade chuckled and said: "Wu Jin, if you want to be treated like my little princess, don't dream about it."
;;;;Everyone burst into laughter.
;;;;After three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, Chen Daoming suddenly said: "In early June, movies from all over the world gathered in China and launched a fierce competition. As a result, the top three were all given to foreign movies.
Although we can’t say it was a disastrous defeat, this result is indeed not very good. Zhang Xiao, what do you think?”
;;;;Zhang Xiao smiled and said, "I'm quite pleased."
;;;;Li Liangjie said in surprise: "We have all been beaten like this, and you are actually quite happy. Are you sure you are not being sarcastic?"
;;;;"Of course it's not an irony." Zhang Xiao explained: "In my heart, I have always regarded Hollywood movies as the biggest enemy of our domestic movies."
;;;;"But judging from the current situation, Hollywood movies don't seem to be as powerful as I imagined. If you look at the eight movies released this time, two of them are Hollywood movies. The second and
Third, it seems to be quite good, but their other six movies are all ranked below fifteenth, which shows that Hollywood movies do not have any advantage in the Chinese market."
;;;;"As for "In the Field of War" and "Lethal Weapon," their production costs are so high that it is normal for them to have a better box office."
;;;;"What really surprised me was Asanguo's "Wrestling". The plot is simple, without any special effects. It is just a story about a father and two daughters, but the spirit filled in it is more powerful than other movies.
It can touch people’s hearts.”
;;;;"I just said that I am very happy because the appreciation level of our Chinese movie fans has improved so much than before. Compared with the simple sensory enjoyment that Hollywood movies bring to everyone, they now pay more attention to it.
Spiritual enjoyment.”
;;;;"I feel this is a huge progress, and for domestic films, this is undoubtedly a very good thing."
;;;;After hearing what Zhang Xiao said, Chen Daoming nodded and said, "You are right."
;;;;"The success of the movie "Wrestling" shows that domestic movie fans have a stronger appreciation of movies, their psychology is more mature, and they are more rational when choosing movies."
;;;;"Unfortunately, "Wrestling" is a Sanguo film, not our domestic film."
;;;;Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "The success of "Wrestling" is a symbol. It proves that as long as the plot of the movie is good, a small budget can still beat big productions. It also points out the direction for our Chinese film companies to work hard."
"
;;;;Yu Qiandao: "Zhang Xiao, it seems that the movies you have made in the past few years are all large-scale productions, right?"
;;;;Zhang Xiaodao: "Yu Laoshi, I didn't say that small productions can definitely beat big productions. In comparison, big-budget movies have a greater chance of achieving high box office."
;;;;"Besides, many of the movies I have made in the past few years have been successful with a small cost, such as "The Silence of the Lambs," which cost only tens of millions of dollars a day."
