"The box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" did not fall but rose in the next week, overwhelming the three new films, and achieved two consecutive weekly box office championships!" --- Netease Entertainment
"The cumulative box office in two weeks is 2.548 million yuan, and "Edge of Tomorrow" has risen to the third place in the total box office list in 2009!" --- Reported by Sohu Entertainment
"The two-week box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" is 2.548 million, and the box office of "Transformers 2" is 2.98 million in the same period, which is still a difference of 4320 million yuan!" --- New Wolf Entertainment
……

In the second week of August, that is, the second week of the release of "Edge of Tomorrow", a total of 8 new films were released in the mainland film market.

In addition to a domestic youth comedy "Give Me Wings to Fly" which became cannon fodder, the other three "Special Forces: The Rise of Cobra", "Up" and "Doraemon: The Legend of Nobita and the Hulk" All gained.

In addition, "Eavesdropping" and "The Secret Detective", which were released last week, also remain competitive.

Because of the release of the three new films, the film schedule of "Edge of Tomorrow" has dropped by more than 3 points, but "Edge of Tomorrow" has achieved reverse growth in the weekly box office after being released for 7 days.

Relying on the box office of 7 million yuan in 1.4 days in the next week, "Edge of Tomorrow" broke the box office record of 2 million yuan in the mainland movie history created by "Transformers 1.38" just last month!
This is also the first box office record in mainland film history held by "Transformers 1" broken by "Edge of Tomorrow"!

At the same time, two weeks later, the cumulative box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" reached 2.548 million yuan, temporarily ranking third in the mainland's 2009 annual box office list.

Second only to "Transformers 4.229" with 2 million and "Under the Red Cliff" with 2.5857 million!
There is no problem in surpassing "Under the Red Cliff", and 3 million box office is not a big problem, but whether "Edge of Tomorrow" can reach 4 million box office, or even surpass "Transformers 2" still has a lot of doubts.

The domestic box office of "Transformers 2" in the two weeks was 2.98 million RMB, 4320 million RMB more than "Edge of Tomorrow" in the same period!

Although the box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" broke the record held by "Transformers 2" in the second week, it only increased by 200 million yuan, which did not greatly improve the total box office.

And as time goes by, the subsequent box office will definitely get lower and lower, and the hope of surpassing "Transformers 2" will become even lower.

The good news is that next week, the three new films released in the mainland have little box office potential.

This includes Pony Feiteng's first investment in the first film "Robot Man" other than the one directed by Chen Hao. This movie hit the market, but Pony Feiteng still earned 20% of the investment in the end.

With the release of the box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" next week, the debate on the box office dispute between "Edge of Tomorrow" and "Transformers 2" has become more and more heated.

Fax. : "Edge of Tomorrow" broke the box office record of "Transformers 2" in the second week. This is a late attack!
"It's true that the record has been set, but it's only an increase of 200 million yuan, and there is still a gap of 4300 million yuan!"

Du Tianzi: The counterattack of "Edge of Tomorrow" has officially begun. Wait for "Edge of Tomorrow" to surpass "Transformers 2"!
"Thinking too much, two weeks have passed, and there is still a shortfall of more than 4300 million. How can it be so easy to come back!"

Chen in the countryside: recover 200 million in the next week, and recover 2000 million in the third week!
"Speaking of this, do you believe it yourself? If you pay back 2000 million, it would be great if you can recover 500 million!"

Book friend 20171111192631437: Next week, there will be no blockbuster releases in the mainland film market, and "Edge of Tomorrow" will definitely narrow the gap further.

"Shi Lezhi, isn't there Liu Zhenwei's "Mecha Man", and the third week of "Transformers 2" also has 7400 million, the second in film history, how much can "Edge of Tomorrow" have in the third week?"

Mr. Eucalyptus: I think "Edge of Tomorrow" is expected to have a box office of 1 million in the third week!
"Just open your eyes and talk nonsense? The box office record for the third week of film history is only 8200 million, and "Edge of Tomorrow" is [-] million? I don't even bother arguing with you!"

Red Copper 1982: "Edge of Tomorrow" has such a good reputation, it may not be impossible!
"Forget it, I can't talk to idiot fans like you, let's just wait and see the result!"

……

Chen Hao frowned slightly as he watched the media reports and the controversy sparked on the Internet.

To be honest, the box office gap of 4320 million yuan is neither big nor small, but Chen Hao is not too sure.

Now that Chen Hao has finished his run promotion, the next step is really completely left to the audience and the market. We can only wait for the final box office of "Edge of Tomorrow".

After taking a sip of water, Chen Hao temporarily stopped paying attention to "Edge of Tomorrow", but looked at the documents in his hand.

This is the ratings statistics and evaluation of the second TV series "Snow Leopard" launched by Haotian Film and Television this year.

On July 2009, 7, the military anti-war drama "Snow Leopard" starring Dameitang was officially broadcast exclusively on Litchi Satellite TV!

This military anti-Japanese war drama has aroused competition from many TV stations.

Not to mention the golden signs of Haotian Film and Television, the previously filmed "Soldier Assault" and "My Leader, My Regiment" both caused quite a stir, and naturally achieved impressive ratings.

Therefore, the third military-themed "Snow Leopard" produced by Haotian Film and Television has been favored by many TV stations.

In the end, Litchi Satellite TV was amazing and won this anti-Japanese war drama at a price of 105 million per episode.

This price has created the highest price record for a single episode in the history of Haotian Film and Television. The previous record was also 100 million/episode held by the military-themed "My Regiment Leader My Regiment".

However, "My Leader, My Group" was jointly funded by three satellite TVs at the time, and this time Lizhi Satellite TV took it all alone, which shows how determined it is.

Everyone has once again seen Litchi Satellite TV's preference for military-themed TV series.

"Soldier Assault", "My Commander My Team" and "Snow Leopard" all have Lizhi TV in the premiere list of the three TV series.

"Snow Leopard" is adapted from the online novel "Pioneer of Special Warfare", which deduces the legendary story of the Anti-Japanese War with Zhou Weiguo and the "China's first special warfare force" founded by him - the Snow Leopard Commando.

"Snow Leopard" is different from previous TV dramas describing the War of Resistance Against Japan. It abandons the traditional concept of blindly promoting heroism, and passes through the growth process of the heroine and heroine, a pair of red lovers.

It vividly shows the legendary story of a group of heroic special forces members fighting wits and courage with the enemy on and off the battlefield.

This drama has a complex emotional development line. The love of children grows up to the family and the country. The father integrates his love for his son into the righteousness of the nation. On the united front of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the three brothers went to the country together.

In addition, there is also the cooperation with the bandit gang Zhu Ziming in the anti-Japanese war, and the complex relationship with the invader Takeshita Jun's brother and enemy... The emotions are vividly expressed, and at the same time, it also deepens the spirit of the anti-Japanese hero Zhou Weiguo.

The images of beating Japanese pirates in the play are very rich, and the flesh-and-blood heroes of the war of resistance are lifelike. At the same time, the good acting skills of the hero and heroine have caused the fire of "Snow Leopard".

"Snow Leopard" had finished its first round of broadcasting at this time, and the final average ratings reached 2.35%. This result made Lizhi Satellite TV overjoyed, obviously they made the right bet.

Because the audience rating of 2.35% is temporarily ranked 2009th in the ratings list of mainland TV dramas in 10, this is the case including CCTV.

And if it is only ranked on satellite TV, then this rating is undoubtedly the first!

It's no wonder Litchi Satellite TV is so happy.

Such a high ratings also quickly sold the second-round broadcast rights of "Snow Leopard". Sichuan Satellite TV, Anhui Satellite TV and Guangdong Satellite TV jointly won the second-round broadcast rights at a price of 60 per episode.

Moreover, the three plans to start broadcasting again at the end of August.

At the same time, with the popularity of "Snow Leopard", the male and female protagonists have also become the most popular actors in the industry at this stage, and even the supporting roles have seen a surge in exposure.

As the leading actress in the play, Chen Yi, Da Mei Tang won the praise of countless audiences with her fresh or charming "variety" personality, and quickly became the "beauty of dreams" of many male audiences.

Few anti-Japanese TV dramas can outline the image of a female soldier so full and vivid, however, "Snow Leopard" did it.

In "Snow Leopard", Da Meitang is a pure and lovely college student, a secretive little wife, and a glamorous socialite who is popular in the upper class.

Of course, behind these identities, the true identity of Dameitang is a passionate anti-Japanese young woman.

No one knows what kind of surprise Dameitang will bring to the audience next time, just as a director once commented: "Tang Tang's performance is very deceptive, suitable for playing roles with various personalities."

When a woman changes various identities and various makeup looks in front of the audience, making the audience quickly accept his new identity and at the same time capture the nature and wisdom between her brows, then she must have captured countless audiences.

Therefore, Dameitang has become the "beauty of dreams" in the minds of many male audiences.

It can be seen from the audience's feedback that nowadays, the public's aesthetics are no longer limited to a hot figure or a ecstasy face, women with both talents and looks are more in line with the mainstream public aesthetics.

And Dameitang reveals both intellectual and emotional beauty in speech and demeanor, which is irresistible.

When Chen Hao saw the media's praise of Dameitang, he couldn't help but smile, and wondered if it was the sailor hired by his company!

After reading the document, Chen Hao noticed a new email in his mailbox. He opened it and saw that it was from Smart, about the box office of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" in its first week.

Seeing "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", Chen Hao almost forgot that it has been more than half a year since Chen Hao finished editing the film.

And this movie, which is in cooperation with 20th Century Fox, has officially landed in North American theaters on August 8 last Friday.

At this time, the North American summer season is coming to an end, and finally only the "Special Forces: Rise of Cobra" and "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", which are known as "the last two masterpieces of the 2009 summer season", are released.

"Special Forces: Rise of Cobra" has an investment of up to 1.75 million U.S. dollars, while "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" has an investment of only 1 million.

However, as the first sci-fi film that Chen Hao and 20th Century Fox collaborated on, and it was a reboot of a classic series, it still attracted a lot of attention.

In the end, "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" was even better, taking in $3648 million in 6005 theaters, beating "Special Forces: Rise of Cobra," which grossed $4007 million in 5620 theaters.

"Rise of the Planet of the Apes" also became the fourth highest-grossing film in North American film history in August, second only to "Bourne 8," "Rush Hour 4," and "Signs."

Pulling out your "benchmarks" and comparing them, the score of 6005 million successfully beat the US$5220 million of "Me and Robot" and the US$5510 million of "X-Men: The First Class".

Although the $6005 million of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" can't compare with the $1.0075 million opening weekend box office of "Iron Man", "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" has gained a good reputation.

Most of the media have given "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" an above-average rating. The freshness of Rotten Tomatoes is as high as 85%, the popcorn index is 86%, and the score on IMDB is also 8 points.

Moreover, the investment of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" was 1 million US dollars, and the box office in the first weekend was 6005 million US dollars. With a good reputation, it may not be able to hit the North American box office of 2 million US dollars.

Coupled with the overseas box office, it is enough for 20th Century Fox to make a fortune, and more importantly, the reboot of this series was successful.

As long as 20th Century Fox is not too bad, then at least 2 films can be made to make money!
……

"Chen Dong, it's time for the press conference!" Sister Shi came in with high heels and asked.

Hearing this, Chen Hao couldn't help staring at Sister Shi's sky-defying long legs, then nodded, "Let's go!"

Today is August 2009, 8. Xiaohu has graduated from Diying and her contract with Haotian Broker has expired. Today she will set up a studio with Haotian Broker and become a partner of Haotian.

Along with Xiaohu are Yaya and Dameitang.

In fact, the contract between Yaya and Dameitang still lasted for a year or two, but Chen Hao simply asked the three girls to set up a studio together for the sake of peace.

Plus Fan Yaojing, Mr. Xun, Tianxian, Lin Shufen, Kang Honglei, Teng Huatao, and Tian Yusheng's studio.

At present, Haotian has 10 major studios.

And if there is no accident, after Deng Chao's contract expires next year, a studio should also be established.
