Huayu Zhihao

Chapter 776
"The first-day box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" is 2715 million yuan!" Sister Shi handed the document to Chen Haodao.

Chen Hao frowned slightly when he heard this. Although the first-day box office surpassed "2012"'s first-day box office record of 2410 million yuan for a domestic film, it even surpassed "2012"'s record of 2700 million yuan for the highest single-day box office of a domestic film.

However, the first-day box office of "Transformers 2", which has not yet been drawn, is as high as 3371 million yuan, and the first-day box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" is nearly 671 million yuan less than that!

After Chen Hao took the file, he looked at it seriously. The box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" was 320 million yuan.

It surpassed the 315 million yuan box office of "Pacific Rim", but still lost to the 2 million yuan box office record that "Transformers 350" just refreshed in mainland movie history.

If you only look at the box office on the first day, there is still a certain gap between "Edge of Tomorrow" and "Transformers 2".

Chen Hao then looked down and saw the reason. Although "Edge of Tomorrow" was the only one at the box office, the two new films "Eavesdropping" and "Big Dog" also had a lot of box office.

Although "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" was released in the third week, it was still ranked behind the three new films, and the box office was considerable.

The first-day box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" cannot be said to be bad, after all, it has already broken the first-day/single-day box office record created by "2012".

Just comparing the box office of "Transformers 2" in the same period, Chen Hao is still not satisfied.

Chen Hao's minimum expectation for "Edge of Tomorrow" is to break 4 million yuan, and a little higher is to surpass "Transformers 2". While winning the annual box office championship, he also regained the highest box office in the history of his own and domestic films. record!
Therefore, Chen Hao immediately took the main creators of the crew and started to run on stage to promote.

The box office difference on the first day was 671 million, but Chen Hao hopes to narrow the box office gap in the next few days through further publicity, even surpassing the single-day box office of "Transformers 2", hoping to have a good first week box office.

……

"The box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" is 320 million yuan at the zero-time box office, and 2715 million yuan at the first-day box office, breaking the two major records of the zero-time box office and the first-day box office of domestic films in succession!"--Doubao.com

"The box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" reached RMB 2715 million on its first day, surpassing the two co-produced films "Eavesdropping" and "The Secret Agent Zero Dog".
"Word of mouth is overwhelming, the box office exceeded 2700 million on the first day, Chen Hao deserves to be the king of the summer schedule!" --- Netease Entertainment
"The first day of "Edge of Tomorrow" was 2715 million, which is far from the 2 million of "Transformers 3371". The gap is obvious! "Edge of Tomorrow" has no hope of surpassing "Transformers 2"?!" --- New Wolf Entertainment
"320 million VS 350 million, 2715 million VS 3371 million, can Chen Hao still live up to the hopes of the Chinese people?" Qiandu Entertainment

……

In 2009, there was no online box office statistics agency in the mainland, and the later Maoyan had not yet been born.

It was not until 2012 that Meituan.com established Meituan Movies, which was renamed Maoyan Movies in 13.

However, even if it is established, it is useless. The areas covered and the number of movie theaters are far from enough, and the box office gap is too big.

It is not until the second half of 2015 that Maoyan's coverage rate reaches 90%, so that the real-time box office of all movies can be calculated more accurately.

Optoelectronics’ special-funded office has been in preparation for 5 years, but it has not yet covered all regions and movie theaters in the country, and it will take 2015 years to go online.

However, although it is impossible to check the real-time box office now, the major theaters are basically connected to the Internet, and the system will count every time a ticket is sold in each movie theater.

Of course, it is not uncommon to use dual systems to steal box office, especially for some franchise theaters, which is already the norm.

Otherwise, based on the real box office revenue of the movie theater, it may take three to five years to pay back the cost. With such a long period, many people will not take such a big risk even if they make money steadily in the future.

Every day, all the theaters will aggregate the data to Optoelectronics, and then the well-informed big companies and big media can get the data in advance.

Taopiao.com, a subsidiary of Haotian, is actually already doing real-time online box office statistics, but Taopiao.com currently covers only about 45% of theaters and cinemas across the country.

In order to achieve 80%, or even more than 90%, and provide real-time box office of films in a timely and accurate manner, it will take at least 2 years of time and effort.

Therefore, the current box office statistics are basically based on the more comprehensive and accurate statistics of Optoelectronics.

The first-day box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" is undoubtedly very explosive, and it can be regarded as breaking the box office records of the two major domestic films, but it is only under the backdrop of "Transformers 2" and the previous media hype.

Chinese people's expectations for "Edge of Tomorrow", or Chen Hao, are much more than that.

Therefore, even though the box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" is already very high, some media still compare it with "Transformers 2", and doubt whether "Edge of Tomorrow" can surpass "Transformers 2".

Moreover, this view has been recognized by some movie fans.

They may not have malicious intentions, but since Chen Hao's debut, he has been well-reputed and sold well at the box office, and he has won three annual box office champions in the past four years.

It also surpassed the national division and became No.3 in the domestic box office of 1 million, especially last year with "2012" defeating "Titanic" and regaining the box office champion of the Chinese film history!
He has continued to succeed, surpassed Guoshi to become the number one director of commercial films, and brought down the Hollywood blockbuster "Titanic" that had dominated the mainland film industry for nearly a decade.

Chen Hao is even a bit of a myth in the hearts of movie fans, thinking that he is omnipotent, because he is also placed with more high hopes.

Seeing that "Transformers 2" breaks the box office record of "2012" in mainland film history, and it has been topped by a Hollywood blockbuster in less than a year, both the industry and movie fans feel uncomfortable.

And the most promising and closest one to break the box office record of "Transformers 2" is Chen Hao.

Guoshi's comeback film after three years will have to wait until the Lunar New Year, and his current momentum is not as good as Chen Hao, so he can only be regarded as the No. 2 seed player.

Therefore, when they learned that the first-day box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" was not as good as that of "Transformers 2", fans were still very anxious.

Many netizens discussed this hotly.

Qinglian Earth: The box office on the first day is a bit weak!
Du Tianzi: How could there be a difference of nearly 700 million?When I went to the cinema, I felt that there were a lot of people watching "Edge of Tomorrow"!

Tsundere girl? : There are a lot of people, and "Edge of Tomorrow" has the most shows, but some people still can't buy tickets, and in the end they can only go to "Eavesdropping" or "The Secret Agent".

China Entertainment Reporter: This is the same with us. "Edge of Tomorrow" is full of attendance, but the number of shows is still not enough.

Fax. : Since we all know that "Edge of Tomorrow" is not enough to watch, why don't theaters add more shows?
I am 1875: It is impossible for theaters to make money from just one movie. They have to seize box office potential like "Eavesdropping" and "The Secret Agent". As for "Edge of Tomorrow", it can be delayed. with higher row slices.

……

Even Han Sanpin frowned after getting the box office statistics for the first time. Although "Transformers 2" was introduced by Huaying, it is not a good thing that the box office is too high, especially when it also took away the box office champion of film history.

But this kind of thing can't be helped. "Change 2" will definitely have its advantages in being able to be popular in the market, and Huaying has already given enough support to "Edge of Tomorrow" in the filming.

Moreover, it is only the first day of box office, and "Edge of Tomorrow" may not be able to achieve a comeback.

On the contrary, the big and small kings of Huayi are in pain and happiness.

"2715 million, Chen Hao is really fierce." Xiao Wang looked at the data report and shook his head, "But fortunately, it is not more than "Transformers 2", and the gap is not small."

"Don't get too excited, this is only the first day's box office." The king frowned.

In any case, the box office hit of "Edge of Tomorrow" is a big threat to Huayi's market value that surpasses Haotian Films after its listing.

It is only to blame that the domestic policy has not been transparent, otherwise Huayi would have put Feng Dapao's film in this year's film, so as to increase its performance and market value.

Even if there is no Feng Dapao's movie, at least it has to invest in a blockbuster movie. It's a pity that Huayi has invested in a lot of movies this year, but there are no blockbuster movies or outstanding box office performances yet.

Now Huayi can only hope that the box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" will not be too high, otherwise, when the two companies are listed together, Huayi may be left behind by Haotian.

"The box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" is also very high, but it's better not to surpass "Transformers 2"." Xiao Wang said, "Now some media have questioned whether Chen Hao can reach the top again, why don't we add fire? "

The king raised his brows when he heard this. Both Huayi and Haotian are already undergoing the qualification review of Shenzhen Stock Exchange's GEM, and according to the information they have received, they may actually go public at the end of October.

Therefore, suppressing the box office or word-of-mouth of "Edge of Tomorrow" will be more beneficial to Huayi at least when it is listed.

Although the king also knows that this may not be able to shake the overall situation, but it can suppress Haotian a little bit.

So the king nodded.

……

However, Chen Hao didn't care about the media reports and other people's reactions, but focused on leading Liu Ye and others to hurry up and run.

After getting off the car, Chen Hao, Liu Ye, and Chen Kun went straight to the theater of "Edge of Tomorrow".

When entering the cinema hall, Chen Hao saw many fans queuing up.

"Hey, look, is that Chen Hao, Liu Ye, or Chen Kun?"

"It seems to be true!"

"It should be to the running field to promote it!"

……

Obviously, the appearance of Chen Hao and others has attracted the attention of fans lining up.

Fans became excited after confirming that they were Chen Hao, Liu Ye, and Chen Kun. Many of them were fans of the three. Now seeing their favorite directors and actors with their own eyes, one can imagine their emotions.

"Chen Hao, I'm your fan, I really like your movies!"

"Liu Ye, Liu Ye..."

"Chen Kun, you are so handsome..."

……

When Chen Hao and the three saw this, they immediately greeted everyone with smiles, but the theater was not too big, so for the sake of safety, the three of them just waved to everyone and continued to the "Edge of Tomorrow" theater.

At the same time, Chen Hao also looked up at the big screen in the eye shadow hall, then looked at the theater staff and asked, "Who are these movie fans queuing up?"

"They are all fans waiting to watch "Edge of Tomorrow"." The staff member replied.

"How about the attendance rate of other films?" Chen Hao continued to ask.

"It's definitely not as high as "Edge of Tomorrow", but it can be about 20%-30%." The staff said.

Chen Hao nodded when he heard the words. Although the attendance rate was not high, after all, it was just released, and the theater must still have to arrange the films. This also squeezed the film schedule of "Edge of Tomorrow" and could not be higher.

It also caused a lot of fans in the theater to watch "Edge of Tomorrow" and had to queue up.

While thinking, the three of Chen Hao had already entered the "Edge of Tomorrow" theater, and the audience in the theater were stunned for a moment when they saw the three standing in front of the stage, and then they screamed.

"It's Chen Hao, Liu Ye and Chen Kun!"

"Hahaha, I'm so lucky today, I actually saw a live star!"

"I didn't come in vain today!"

……

The three of Chen Hao smiled and waited until everyone was quiet before speaking.

"I am Chen Hao, the director of "Edge of Tomorrow". These are the two leading actors, Liu Ye and Chen Kun. First of all, thank you for choosing to watch our movie." Chen Hao said.

"you are welcome!"

"I've wanted to see it for a long time!"

"Long-awaited!"

……

"Thank you, thank you everyone. Next we have a 20-minute interactive session. If you want to know or have any requests, you can just ask. Don't worry, we won't satisfy you anyway." Chen Hao said.

There was a silence at the scene, and then everyone burst into laughter, "Hahaha..."

"Okay, just kidding." Chen Hao said with a smile, "Let's get started!"

"Director Chen, you are so handsome and talented, do you have a girlfriend?"

"Oh..." There was booing at the scene, and then they all looked at Chen Hao gossipingly.

Chen Hao shook his head with a smile when he heard the words, "No, I'm still a single dog for the time being!"

"Single dog?"

Everyone was taken aback when they heard the words, and then laughed lightly. This description is quite interesting.

"Then Director Chen, what type of girl do you like? Pure? Sexy? Intellectual? Or careless?"

"Oh……"

Chen Hao smiled when he heard the words, and the elementary school students only did multiple choice questions, but said, "I like the kind, um, who are willing to spend money to watch my movies!"

"Hahaha……"

"Then we are all your favorite type!"

"Hahaha……"

"Liu Ye, what's it like working with Kate Beckinsale?"

Liu Ye scratched his head when he heard the words, "She is very beautiful, but when she was filming, she spoke English and I spoke Chinese. The two of us were talking like chickens and ducks. Anyway, you talk about yours and I talk about mine."

"Hahaha……"

……

"Okay, thank you again for your support for "Edge of Tomorrow"." Chen Hao said, "If you like it after watching it, please help to promote it, thank you everyone!"

"Don't worry, it will definitely happen!"

"I will bring my whole class to come."

"I just said that Chen Hao likes girls who watch his movies!"

……

After finishing the family, Chen Hao and the three left quickly. The next family is about to start, so they have to hurry up.

……

The time passed in the busy running field, and soon 3 days passed, and a new week came, and the first week of "Edge of Tomorrow" box office is also hot!
　Thanks to "Du Tianzi" for the 100 tip!
