Chapter 502 Sissi is in Hong Kong Island

During the first weekend of its release, the daily box office of "Pacific Rim" exceeded 100 million yuan.

The total box office in the first five days of the week (including on-demand and non-on-demand screenings) exceeded 400 million!

"A billion-dollar blockbuster is born!" theater chains have issued their own predictions.

"Pacific Rim" almost took over the box office of all movies on the market during the same period.

"The Year in a Hurry" relied on Zhao Yanzi's huge number of fans and still achieved 127 million in the first four days of the weekend despite the pressure of "Pacific Rim".

But other films have not had such good luck. It has been 10 days since the release of "Fast and Furious 6", and it has achieved a box office of 250 million before the release of "Pacific Rim". However, in the four days since then, it has only added less than 250 million yuan.

30 million box office.

"That Guy in My Body" announced on August 5 that its national box office exceeded 300 million, reaching 302 million.

Then, unable to withstand the pressure of hospital admissions, the film was released a week early.

"It's a pity. If it weren't for "Pacific Rim", it wouldn't be a problem to get another 20 to 30 million." The producer of "That Guy in My Body" was a little discouraged.

"Aren't you satisfied?" Guo Fei was angry and funny, "You spent 23 million yuan on a box office of 300 million yuan, so what else is there to say?"

"We announced more than 30 million yuan, but we didn't make much money."

“It’s really too expensive to publish now. We have our own three major platforms: Weibo, Tudou and Taopiaopiao, otherwise the cost will be even higher.

"The money from the announcement is enough for me to make another movie."

Complaints are complaints, but everyone was happy when they settled the accounts.

Cheng Lingfeng and Thomas Tull made the right bet.

Liu Yifei's domestic appeal is indeed unparalleled, and the domestic box office of "Pacific Rim" is bound to exceed that of its North American home base.

The young lady travels all over the country these days. At most, she travels to five cities a day.

She was actively doing business in every city she visited. She knew that the burden of the domestic box office of "Pacific Rim" was on her shoulders. Although she was a little tired, she was willing to do it and enjoyed it.

But if you really think about it, "Pacific Rim" and "That Time" are both fan movies in China.

The difference is that in addition to the support of Liu Yifei's fans, "Pacific Rim" also has a large number of non-fans watching the movie - fans of Hollywood blockbusters.

But "The Year in a Hurry" is different. This is almost a movie that all Zhao Yanzi fans can watch.

"I watched Xiao Yanzi grow up, what's wrong with buying a ticket for her now?"

Fans are so simple and crude at this stage.

Since it is a fan movie, it generally follows a box office rule - the box office explodes in the early stage/first week, and then drops off a cliff in the middle and later stages.

This is the case with "Year in a Time". After the first week, the daily increase was no more than 5 million. "Pacific Rim" was much better. After Liu Yifei's fans watched the movie, there were still a large number of blockbuster fans to take over.

In addition, the quality of "Pacific Rim" is indeed not bad, and the special effects are indeed made with money.

Therefore, the decline after the first week is also within the acceptable range.

But "Tiny Times 2", "When a Man Loves" and "One Night of Surprise" were unlucky.

The market was cut short by "Fast and Furious 6" in advance. "Pacific Rim" blew up all the summer movie theater tables after it was finished, and "The Last Day" caught a wave of fans of youth films.

The market will not slow down for a week - next week on the 15th, small and medium-sized enterprises will pay their salaries, which may stimulate a wave of movie viewing.

The box office of "Pacific Rim" dropped to 00,000 on weekdays, still a blockbuster performance.

After Liu Yifei traveled in the mainland for a week, she started a promotional tour in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia.

This night in Hong Kong Island, recommended by the Music Emperor, the chairman of the Hong Kong Film Awards, Chen Jiashan, asked the young lady to meet.

"Strange, why does he want to see me?" Liu Yifei is very surprised. She has little contact with the Hong Kong community. She usually only maintains basic courtesy with her partners when participating in activities on Hong Kong Island.

"Let's meet you," said the accompanying assistant, "After all, I'm here in person, and I'm a senior, so I have to give him some face."

"They didn't give me face during the Academy Awards," Liu Yifei said.

It doesn't matter that I have to be the best actress, but why should I give the best picture to "Chilling", which is inferior to "A League of Thieves" in every aspect?

"That's what he said, but since everyone is here, we have to see him to find out what his plans are."

Liu Yifei, accompanied by her assistant and the person in charge of Jiahe (Hong Kong Island), had dinner with Chen Jiashang and his party at the hotel restaurant.

Chen Jiashang and his party are planning to take the wife route and want to find out from Liu Yifei Cheng Yu'an and Yuan Yuan's attitude towards Hong Kong films and the Academy Awards.

Let's see if we can save the big water pipe.

It’s really difficult to secure sponsorship for next year’s Academy Awards.

As soon as they met, Chen Jiashang congratulated "Pacific Rim" on the success: "No one in the younger generation of actresses is more powerful than Miss Yifei."

Liu Yifei couldn't put up a good show, so she smiled and said: "It's nothing. She is said to be the heroine, but in fact she is just the assistant to the hero."

"No other actress would be able to be this kind of assistant." After a few words of greeting, everyone sat down.

Chen Jiashang did not talk about business, but instead introduced her to the food and customs of Hong Kong Island: "Although Hong Kong Island is not big, it has a lot of delicious food and fun. Miss Yifei can come and visit more when she has time."

"I will definitely come here often when I have the opportunity." He extended his hand to avoid hitting the smiling person.

Everyone was chatting while eating, and the table was full of laughter and laughter. Within half an hour, Chen Jiashang finally got to the point: "What has Director Cheng been doing recently?"

Except for Cheng Yuan's new film, which will be kept secret, many of his schedules are public, and Liu Yifei does not deliberately hide them: "The company has many dramas in production, and he is busy recruiting the crew to recruit actors. He will also go to Venice at the end of the month. He is the chairman of this year's Horizon Unit.

"

"It's amazing," Chen Jiashang flattered, and then said, "I also think "Old Father" is really good. The Academy Awards organizing committee would like to invite the crew of "Old Father" to participate in next year's film festival."

Having said that, it is basically equivalent to promising the best picture to "Father".

But Liu Yifei didn't buy it. She knew Cheng Yu'an's character too well. The Golden Rooster Award has political blessings, and people in the mainland are complicated. Cheng Yu'an was born in an academy. The Golden Rooster Award tricked him once. He didn't talk to him for 10 years. His mentor Hou Keming personally talked to him.

Even the attempts to persuade him to reconcile with the Golden Rooster Awards, let alone the Academy Awards, failed: "I'm afraid this doesn't conform to the rules of the Academy Awards. From the investment to the actors, there are no Hong Kong filmmakers in "Old Father," which is not in line with the Academy Awards.

Criteria for entry into the Image Awards: No. 1 can be nominated for the best cross-Strait Chinese film at most."

But the Best Cross-Strait Chinese Film Award has no appeal to Cheng Yuan at all.

This is also the disgusting part of the Academy Awards, insisting on setting up a Cross-Strait Film Award to distinguish it from Hong Kong Film Awards.

Chen Jiashang didn't expect Liu Yifei to speak so ruthlessly, and he didn't know what to say.

Liu Yifei continued: "I generally do not interfere in the company's decision-making, and the company will make unified arrangements for any awards."

Chan Ka-shang changed another topic: "The Hong Kong film industry has always attached great importance to cooperation with friends from all over the world. Even if there are some unpleasant things, I hope it will not affect the purpose of Hong Kong films being inclusive and inclusive."

"Of course, Hong Kong films used to be the benchmark for Chinese films." Liu Yifei also learned to speak in official accent.

Chen Jiashang didn't expect Liu Yifei to change anything. What he wanted was for Liu Yifei to bring what he said tonight to Cheng Yu'an.

"We don't want some of the unpleasantness to hinder the cooperation between the two parties."

Liu Yifei nodded, acknowledging this statement.

"We hope to continue to work on the film that Golden Harvest collaborated with Media Asia on," Media Asia's Senior Producer and Distributor Chen Dexiu added.

Liu Yifei frowned: "I can't make the decision on this." Jiahe's representative was standing nearby, "Thank you, Director Chen, for the invitation. It's very late and I have to catch a flight tomorrow, so I'm sorry."

Liu Yifei got up and took the people away.

"Can this happen?" Chen Desiu asked after Liu Yifei left.
