Chapter 369 Finally Breaking the Shipwreck Film Record
Since then, domestic films have been working hard, but they just can't break the record of "Titanic"
And now "Thirty-day Love" has been released, which finally solves this embarrassing problem.
The original domestic box office record holder was not so-called domestic blockbusters such as "Heroes" or "The Promise" or "The Golden Jacket", but "Titanic" ten years ago.
"Titanic" ranks first in history at global box office and U.S. box office. In China, it also topped 360 million, ranking first in history.
This box office did seem a bit weird back then, and it still seems weird even now.
At that time, the Internet had not yet become popular, and BitTorrent had not yet appeared. Pirated discs mainly focused on Hong Kong movies, and the number of Hollywood movies that Chinese people had seen was limited. Cameron, fat Wen and DiCaprio, who were not yet fat, were basically not known to many people, so they
There is basically no box office appeal in China ~ Secondly, the Titanic is one of the top ten sunken ships of the century. It may be a household name in the West, so it is quite attractive... But in China ten years ago, I really doubt that it would
How many people have heard of this name before this movie...
Thirdly, in terms of public opinion and momentum, later series such as Pirates of the Caribbean, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, The Matrix, and the adorable orangutan King Kong should be no worse than "Titanic". Let's talk about the domestic media in the past ten years.
The improvement in the level of development is also obvious to all; in terms of investment scale, even if the subsequent series of blockbusters are not as good as Sinking Ship, they are not much different. The difference of one or two billion cannot determine the huge difference in the number of viewers; in terms of subject matter, love and grandeur are unified
Combined, then "Pearl Harbor" is also a giant ship (aircraft carrier) + love + war + anti-Japanese
But just ten years ago, this Hollywood romance movie, which has always been criticized as vulgar, set a box office record of 360 million yuan in China. No one can break it to this day. It can only be said that no one in those days has ever watched a Hollywood movie.
, especially the popular "Party A and Party B" in China at that time, which had a science fiction background, was already very impressive. Suddenly at this time, I saw "Titanic", which cost more than 200 million US dollars.
"No. 1" was the most expensive film at the time, and it was also a masterpiece that demonstrated the level of contemporary computer development. The luxurious liner and spectacular scenes all reflected Cameron's ambition.
Almost every square millimeter of Cameron's luxurious film on the screen is made of dollars. The film's miraculous and unprecedented blockbuster made it a symbol of Hollywood at the end of the 20th century, but in any case, James Cameron has already
Reached the highest peak of world commercial films and became famous in history.
Until his own movie "Avatar" later broke this record
Let’s not talk about foreign records. For domestic filmmakers, the foreign market is not yet so ambitious. Even for domestic movies, they can only guarantee less than half of the box office, and there are
What ability do you have to manage foreign affairs?
However, the domestic ticket sales record has always been blocked by the sunken ship "Titanic". Moreover, it was a movie ten years ago. Ten years later, no matter how hard domestic filmmakers try, they cannot surpass this.
This is an absolute irony for domestic films, especially for those filmmakers who always brag about how awesome domestic films are. It is a slap in the face that makes them dizzy.
Yes, a country can't even break the record set by other people's movies ten years ago. It's nothing but self-deception to talk about prosperity. But now it has been broken by "Love Is Not Blind", and it's on a large scale.
It's broken, not just a little bit more, but it completely blows away "Titanic" by ten or eight streets.
This has made many filmmakers begin to reflect on their own policies. Due to the previous box office record of the sunken ship "Titanic" and the indiscriminate bombardment of Hollywood blockbusters every year, many film and television companies feel that
, if you want to save Chinese movies and make Chinese movies rise, you must learn from Hollywood movies and develop a blockbuster model. And the well-known domestic film directors have also turned to the blockbuster model, including Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaogang, and Zhang Yimou.
etc. have also begun to produce blockbusters, especially Zhang Yimou's Heroes, which is known as the first domestic blockbuster in the country, creating a history of blockbusters, and it has been out of control since then, but the results are often mixed, almost very
Few blockbusters can achieve both good reputation and box office success. Most of the time, they can't even keep the box office and end up dismal. They all wonder why Hollywood's blockbusters can succeed, but why their blockbusters fail miserably.
There must be a reason, and there are many reasons among them. They are also trying hard to find it, but before they can find it, Zhang Yicheng's "Love Is Not Blind" came out, giving them another choice. They filmed it.
Ten years of blockbusters have failed to break the box office record of "Titanic", but "Thirty Days of Love" is just a movie with an investment of only tens of millions, but its final box office directly beat it.
Drive them a few streets
It’s simply a super miracle!
Some film critics even publicly said: Let’s cool down the popularity of blockbusters. Blockbusters are not the only option. Investment is not a direct criterion for the quality of a movie. Even if you are making a commercial movie, you should calm down and make movies seriously.
Don’t think that as long as you invest, the audience will definitely buy it. Don’t forget, the audience is the final judge and can determine the success or failure of a movie.
Instead of worrying about an investment, it is better to think about how to win the hearts of the audience and get a double harvest of good box office and good reputation.
And Tianlan Entertainment finally became famous with "Thirty-day Love", and entered the ranks of domestic first-tier film companies.
A box office of 100 million yuan is a dividing line, and it is also a dividing line for current Chinese film companies. It is a real level that separates a first-class film company from a second-rate film company. If a company does not have a film with a box office of over 100 million yuan,
Movies, how many movies does this company need to produce before it can be called a first-class company?
And Tianlan Entertainment, which has directly broken the domestic box office record, is naturally qualified to be called a first-class company.
