Chapter 971 First Week Box Office
""Gravity" is outstanding, because it is a story set in space, so it needs to use a lot of special effects, but it does not give people a fake feeling, but it is more immersive.

The middle and latter parts of the film are basically Mr. Xun's one-man show alone, but it doesn't feel boring at all.

If special effects or performances are secondary to a movie, then the most touching thing is actually the shocking power of the movie. "Gravity" has undoubtedly achieved this, at least for me. in this way.

Because of this movie, I recalled a lot of memories about space, and felt deeply lucky that I was still on Earth the moment I watched the movie. "

……

On the first day of its release, "Gravity" surpassed the 1320 million of "Transformers 3" with a box office of 1200 million yuan, setting a new box office record in the history of mainland movies.

However, everyone seems to be used to the fact that Chen Hao's new film can break the box office record in film history!
In addition to Chen Hao's 20 consecutive masterpieces, one of the reasons is that the mainland film market is becoming more and more popular, so this result is expected by everyone.

At the same time, one day after "Gravity" was released, there were countless film reviews in the media and on the Internet.

There is no doubt that "Gravity" is the most anticipated masterpiece in the mainland film market recently, and its popularity is far from comparable to other films.

In just one day, there were more than 1 film reviews of "Gravity" from the media and film critics, and most of them were well received.

And on the second day after "Gravity" was released, its box office data on the first day was also announced by the media.

"7350 million RMB! "Gravity" breaks the box office record for domestic films on its premiere day!" --- Reported by Sohu Entertainment
"With RMB 7350 million, "Gravity" won the Sun Crown without any suspense!"--Qiandu Entertainment
""Gravity" broke two box office records in a row on its first day of release!" --- Netease Entertainment
……

"Gravity" had a box office of 1320 million yuan at zero point on the premiere day, and a total box office of 7350 million yuan on the premiere day, breaking two box office records in mainland film history!

The first is the box office record of zero games. The previous record holder was "Transformers 1200" with RMB 3 million, which is now rewritten by "Gravity".

The second is the box office record on the premiere day of a domestic film. The previous record holder is the 2 million yuan of "Painted Skin 7000", which was also released this year!

And the box office record holder of the mainland film history is "Transformers 3".

《地心引力》的7350万人民币票房, 排在内地影史首映日票房排行榜的第2位，高于《泰坦尼克号3D》的7200万，低于《变形金刚3》。

Although it failed to break the box office record on the opening day of "Transformers 3", the box office of up to 7350 million yuan is also eye-catching enough.

Of course, some of Chen Hao's fanatical fans and the media regret that "Gravity" failed to directly set a box office record on the premiere day in mainland film history.

Moreover, the box office on the premiere day of "Gravity" is nearly 3 million yuan away from the box office of "Transformers 2600", which is not a small gap.

And last year's "Transformers 3" only broke the 10 billion box office. "Gravity" has a gap with it, so it is very likely that it will not break the 3 billion box office just like "Titanic 10D".

Just after the box office came out on the first day, some media are already worried that the box office of "Gravity" will not exceed 10 billion yuan.

How embarrassing is this for other movies that are still working hard at the box office of over [-] million!
Even so, this statement was quickly refuted by many media.

After all, this is the box office on the first day, and the future box office trend is not certain.

Just like "Inception" and "Avatar", their box office on the first day was far inferior to that of "Transformers 3", but the final box office exceeded the box office of "Transformers 3" by more than 3 million yuan.

As a domestic blockbuster, "Gravity" may not be released for as long as "Inception", but it will definitely be longer than "Transformers 3". This is the advantage of "Gravity".

In addition, the reputation of "Gravity" is better than that of "Transformers 3", and "Gravity" is also a domestic blockbuster, which is an advantage in the mainland film market.

However, what the result will be, can only be left to the audience and time.

Soon, another 2 days passed, "Gravity" officially ended its first week journey, and the new week's mainland box office rankings were also freshly released.

Mainland Weekly Box Office Ranking (2012.8.2-2012.8.5):

……

With a box office of 3.411 million yuan in the first week and excellent word-of-mouth, "Gravity" became the biggest highlight of the mainland film market last week.

This box office result is already impressive enough, but some media still come out to sing the opposite, thinking that "Gravity" is likely to miss the annual championship and lose to "Titanic 3D".

Because although the final box office of "Titanic 3D" stopped at 9.77 million yuan, it failed to become the fourth film in the mainland to break the box office of 4 billion yuan.

However, its box office in the first week was nearly 1.26 million RMB more than the first week of "Gravity". This gap cannot be ignored!

Moreover, the box office of "Titanic 3D" in the second week was 2.7 million yuan, while "Gravity" was only 3.411 million yuan in the first week, and it would be quite difficult for the next week's box office to exceed 2.7 million yuan.

That is to say, the box office results of "Gravity" and "Titanic 3D" are likely to get bigger and bigger.

Perhaps just like Chen Hao's other film "The Avengers" this year, it finally stopped at the box office of 8 million!

These media’s statements are somewhat reasonable. The gap exceeded 1 million in the first week, and it is indeed not easy to catch up.

In fact, "Gravity" has set a lot of box office records for domestic movies, and the results are very impressive, but it still has to be suspected by the media.

It can only be said that if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight!
With the title of the number one business leader in the mainland, Chen Hao has to face various pressures and challenges all the time. Even if you are doing well, if you are not as good as everyone thinks, then you may also fail of.

For this reason, many media also interviewed Chen Hao who was busy promoting the film.

"Director Chen, many people now think that the box office of "Gravity" may not surpass that of "Titanic 3D". What do you think about this?"

"How do I see it? Of course I see it with my eyes!" Chen Hao laughed, "Movies are sometimes like gambling, and no one can guarantee success. Fortunately, I have succeeded 19 times.

As for the success of this 20th time, I don't count, and it doesn't matter what other people say. Only the movie fans can decide what you ask. "

"Then are you personally confident that the film's box office will surpass that of "Titanic 3D"?"

"Of course I have confidence. I think "Gravity" has been completed very well, and I am very satisfied." Chen Hao said.

……

After the publicity ended, Chen Hao and Mr. Xun returned to the hotel.

"Director Chen, I think our box office has been very successful." Mr. Xun glanced at Chen Hao and said, "Really, I really think so."

Chen Hao laughed and said, "Don't worry, I'm not that fragile. Even if "Gravity" still loses to "Titanic 3D" in the final box office, I won't do anything."

Mr. Xun nodded and said, "These media are just looking for trouble for nothing. If other people's box office is like this, they will already be blowing up the hype. How can there be so much nonsense?"

"Who made me so successful in the past? The tree attracts the wind. This is sailing against the current!" Chen Hao said.

After hearing this, Mr. Xun took it for granted. After all, there has never been a genius like Chen Hao in China's film history for decades.

After returning to the hotel, Chen Hao hugged Sister Shi directly and started the crazy primitive movement.

Although he didn't care much on the surface, Chen Hao still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and now he had to discharge all the negative energy.

Soon, another week passed, and the Mainland's weekly box office rankings were released again!
