Huayu, my wife, I support myself

Chapter 441 441. No upper limit 【Subscription】

The "Transformers" series is Michael's famous work, how could he let this series be folded in his own hands.

He can accept that the movie fails.

The failure of this series is absolutely unacceptable.

But there is no way not to accept it now.

The box office data here is enough to explain many problems, and the audience can no longer accept such Transformers.

There are two choices before them.

Either put it on hold, or rise from the ashes.

The former may be revived after a few years of delay. As for the latter, it is a bit like recasting the Transformers series, but if you do this.

The difficulty is not ordinary.

That's why they haven't settled down yet after driving for three hours.

Michael thought that he would make a somersault this time, but he never expected that it would be so big. This time, the somersault would cause his own company to suffer a loss of hundreds of millions of small targets, or even more.

If the situation cannot be reversed, the loss may have to be multiplied by 10.

If the "Transformers" series falls, it will definitely affect the whole body.

Beyond that, there was the effect on himself.

If "Transformers" can't be brought back to life, then he must have given up titles like box office poison.

and also.

Even a project like "Transformers" can be wiped out by him.

Do other companies dare to hand over such a big IP to him?

Never mind, absolutely not.

This was something Michael hadn't thought of before.

The talented director who was born in the east seems to have brought his genius to the extreme. Even Cameron, who shouted "I am the king of the world" in high spirits, became nervous. This gap made Michael's heart empty. of.

This somersault is too loaded.

Big enough to affect his future light and shadow career.

……

As for Lu Chen.

Although the box office of "Jurassic Park" is exciting, it has passed the excitement period. Generally speaking, the box office on the first day is the highest, but there are many exceptions, such as when the word of mouth is particularly good, for example, the first day is not a Saturday. On Sunday, or when there is a holiday suddenly...

In short, the box office on the first day is not equal to the upper limit.

Like now.

It has broken [-] million for three consecutive days, what can Lu Chen say?
This is directly abnormal.

However, Lu Chen estimated that the domestic box office in the next single day should be about [-] million. If you want to go higher, it should not be easy. Now Lu Chen is more concerned about whether this explosive trend can continue. How long, a week or two!
As for the West side.

Now Lu Chen is not too worried.

Since he issued a challenge to Kashen, the entertainment company over there should not make any small moves. After all, the eyes of the whole world are on this. If they make small moves at this time, they will lose face. Lu Chen even wished they could do some tricks.

So in the next time.

Lu Chen didn't have to worry about "Jurassic Park" being targeted by Hollywood.However, even if it is not targeted, the box office will definitely slow down, and it is impossible to continue to maintain the same rhythm as the domestic side.

Of course, the gap with China should not be too big.

The answer is revealed step by step.

In the next few days, the single-day box office of "Jurassic Park" failed to maintain 5 million. If it continues to maintain the 5 million single-day box office data, it is estimated that the record in film history may be refreshed again.

However, although it failed to maintain 5 million yuan, the daily global box office of more than 7 million yuan is enough to make Hollywood go crazy with jealousy.

However, although the domestic single-day box office fell by 5 million, the daily box office of this movie is still maintained at around [-] million. As for overseas, it is only around [-] million.

This data is absolutely phenomenal.

When the first Saturday came, although the single-day box office of "Jurassic Park" failed to break through 5 million again, it was about the same.

And this range has been maintained until Sunday, so that the domestic box office of "Jurassic Park" in the first week of its release directly reached an unprecedented 33 billion.

To know,
This is only the box office of "Jurassic Park" in the first week, and it does not include the box office that also performed extremely horribly overseas. There are too many countries and theaters involved overseas, so it is difficult to calculate in time.

But even if it's not in time,
From the box office that has already come out, professionals in the industry have drawn extremely accurate conclusions.

The highest single-day box office in the history of new movies,

The highest box office in a single week in the history of new movies.

The fastest to break the 10 billion box office record.

The fastest to break the 20 billion box office record.

The fastest to break the box office record of 30 billion...

A series of records that once belonged to "Kung Fu Panda" and "Avatar" are being quickly overturned by "Jurassic Park".The audience seemed to have returned to the years when "Avatar" was released, and once again saw the shock brought by Pandora.

Then comes the question before everyone.

Will "Jurassic Park" surpass "Avatar"?

Will it or not?
The answer is not yet known, but one thing is certain, that is, it has this potential.

Miaoyan also gave their predictions, but for some reason, their predictions were especially prone to mistakes when facing Lu Chen.

On the final box office of "Jurassic Park".

They have changed it three times.

The first time was before "Jurassic Park" was released. At that time, they made predictions based on pre-sales alone.

When the pre-sale box office of "Jurassic Park" exceeded 80 million, they revised their forecast for "Jurassic Park" for the first time, and their predicted final box office was [-] billion.

Then, not long after this modification,
The pre-sale box office of "Jurassic Park" exceeded 3 million.

They were stunned directly.

Then the second revision was urgently started, and this time they predicted a box office of 120 billion.

The third time was on the past Saturday, when they saw "Jurassic Park" and wanted to retake the 5 million box office in a single day.

They started the third modification, this time they adjusted directly to 200 billion.

no way.

So scary.

Their second forecast, Jurassic Park, is at most three days away.

"I don't think it should be a problem to break the record of "Avatar"."

"He is now breaking through the records set by "Avatar" in all aspects. If we push it like this, it should be no problem to surpass "Avatar."

"Although theoretically speaking, the box office of "Jurassic Park" may be higher, but today's audience is not the audience at the time, and the attitude and enthusiasm for watching movies are far from what they were at the beginning."

"That's true."

The analyst on the side of Miaoyan is still trying to analyze.

After summarizing and judging various factors,
They came to a conclusion that whether "Jurassic Park" can surpass "Avatar" mainly depends on the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies.

Today's audience's enthusiasm for watching movies is definitely not as good as it was back then.

As for the reason,

Quite simply, movie fare.

The member price is 35 yuan, and the child ticket is 20 yuan.

It's still normal,

Those movie theaters that are better have 75 or even higher.

Even well-off families will consider this fare.

for example.

For a family of three to watch a movie and buy some snacks, the cost is close to two or three hundred yuan.

It is indeed a bit expensive.

Ordinary people still feel a little distressed when they spend it.

In recent years, movie tickets have been more expensive than in previous years, so the number of people who go to the cinema to watch movies is relatively small. The box office of Huaguo movies has grown by leaps and bounds in the past few years because the movie ticket prices are down-to-earth, so that more ordinary people can Walk into the cinema and feel the experience brought by the integration of sound, light and electricity.

But in the past two years, movie ticket prices have become more and more outrageous.In addition, many families are equipped with projectors and large-screen TVs, so even those who want to go to the cinema to watch movies will be stopped by this ticket price.

therefore,

Whether "Jurassic Park" can surpass the box office record of "Avatar" mainly depends on the enthusiasm of the audience.

In the past, many viewers would swipe twice and swipe three times.

Now, if I really can't afford it, the second brush is already very good, and the third brush is not even a thought.

Therefore, whether it can be broken or not depends mainly on how many audiences enter the movie theater. It is simply unreliable to rely on fans to swipe twice and swipe three times.In the past few years, in variety shows, I often heard the words of celebrities giving their friends a few shows of the new movie.

Haven't seen that few celebrities have mentioned it in the past two years?

Because I can't afford it.

However, despite this factor, Miaoyan finally raised the box office forecast of "Jurassic Park" to 200 billion.

This data is just on par with "Avatar".

Although many people are not optimistic that "Jurassic Park" will surpass "Avatar".

But they still think that "Jurassic Park" can enter the top three in film history, and it should be no problem to exceed the record set by "Star Wars".

There is no problem even surpassing "Titanic", but in the case of "Avatar", its box office of nearly 28 billion ugly dollars is too scary.

A lot of people don't like it at all.

Although Lu Chen already has two works ranked in the top ten of film history, even if one film is ranked in the top five, the top three is another level. Simply put, the top five and the top three are not at the same level at all.

Even for Lu Chen, it is quite difficult to break through this level.

However, it is different now,

Many people think that the top three should soon have a film with the Huaguo label appearing.As long as "Jurassic Park" can be ranked in the top three, it will be another Huaguo's counter-repression of overseas films.

Just be in the top three.

This ranking is very difficult to be replaced, at least it can last for several years, and several years is enough to make many people despair.

Even Lu Chen had to challenge Kashen with a big victory in suppressing the three blockbuster films. It is conceivable how much the top three in film history have suppressed other directors.

It's not just meow eyes, actually.

All major domestic platforms are very optimistic about "Jurassic Park" as the highest record in film history. It may surpass Kashen's "Titanic", which is already an incredible topic. Unexpectedly, it has the potential to surpass "Avatar" .

Although there is some talk about inflation, but seeing the situation that "Jurassic Park" is facing today, these factors can be ignored.

At the beginning, "Avatar" took everything directly.

Now "Jurassic Park" is surrounded by three Hollywood blockbusters, and the difficulties it faces are much more difficult than those of "Avatar".

of course.

If two movies meet, it's really hard to say who will win.

but,

Now it is Lu Chen who is more in the limelight.

"Change 5" rushed directly in front of him, and the current popularity of "Pirate 5" has also subsided.Even "Alien", which will be released tomorrow, has not had any impact on "Jurassic Park".

The film schedule of "Alien" was cut from other films, and the theaters basically did not move the film lineup of "Jurassic Park". On "Jurassic Park."

but.

Although there is no additional filming for "Jurassic Park", but the filming of "Jurassic Park" is not cut. This phenomenon is enough to make many people feel scalp numb.

It's so beautiful, it makes people's scalp tingle.

Don't think about it, "Change 5" and "Pirate 5" must have been cut. When did Hollywood blockbusters become so unpopular in China?
When a new movie is released, they actually have to cut their own schedule to support it.

This phenomenon does not only happen domestically.

The same is true abroad.

Still the same sentence, after Lu Chen issued a declaration to challenge Kashen, the eyes of the whole world are paying attention to this battle.Therefore, many people's little thoughts were forced to put away.

Including the Hollywood Big Six.

They can only watch "Jurassic Park" take everything, and dare not act rashly. They can only watch "Jurassic Park" suppress their movies.

It is indeed repression.

"Alien" was released, and before it had an impact on "Jurassic Park", he collapsed first.

be honest.

This movie is not good, at least Lu Chen thinks it is not as good as "Pirates 5".

In the previous life, this movie got a score of 7.4 on Douban. I don't know how much emotion is mixed in it.

It can be seen from the box office.

Compared with "Pirate 5", this movie is really not a star.

Although on the first day of its release, it got close to 1 million box office in China, the problem is that the film schedule of "Alien" can reach 28.4%.

To be honest, this row is not low.

You know, there are a total of four blockbuster films in this schedule! 20.00% Eight is already quite high.

But with such a high ranking, it only got so much box office.

In an instant, the major theaters immediately moved to cut the lineup of "Alien".

So, what exactly caused the defeat of "Alien" in China?
It's very simple, first of all.

Starting with "Alien" in 1979, the feeling is the horror of the creatures in the play. Many viewers have been frightened by this space thriller since childhood.

And in the subsequent sequels, including this sixth work, the monster is getting more and more terrifying, and some people even say that this is the scariest monster in movie history.

The second point is what I said before.

If this movie enters the country, it will definitely be cut.

This is an inevitable point, but also a crucial point. The domestic version of "Alien" is 6 minutes shorter than the North American version.

The deletion of scenes will inevitably affect the entire movie, especially as a horror film, if all the scary scenes are deleted, what else will the audience watch?
This point, even "Alien" fans must be cautious!
This is not a special case.

"Resident Evil 6" and "Wolverine 3" have encountered such a situation. The most severe deletion is "The Lost City of Z", which has been deleted for 37 minutes. Do you think such a movie can still be watched?
For the audience, no matter who deleted it, they should complain to the industry and commerce department, which is obviously not enough.

Cutting is a fact now, so you have to ask yourself, can you accept the cut version?If you can't, then don't go.

At that time, if you watch it out of joint or not exciting enough, it will make you feel that this is a bad movie.

As for the third point.

Is the audience can accept this type?

Alien should be said to be a "genre film", not a popcorn movie for everyone.

It will involve a lot of "disgusting" scenes, and the overall tone is relatively heavy and hopeless.

If you are not a fan of this type of film, many people will basically not watch it.

The fourth word is the picture of the movie.

The movie screen of this kind of film is basically pitch-black?

Today's Hollywood blockbusters seem to like to go dark, and most of the pictures are dark and dark, which is very easy to make people sleepy.

Such as "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Wonder Woman", "The Mummy", "Alien".

A dark picture can create a sense of solemnity, horror, or mystery, but it also has a certain hypnotic effect.

From an emotional point of view, he is more rational and calm, so it may not make you look very happy.

When Alien falls on its own.

Many people were stunned. It can be said that the world has been overturned. From their point of view, Lu Chen can win one of them, and there is no big problem.

However, it was difficult for them to accept that the three films were directly abolished. The abolishment mentioned here refers to whether there is any possibility of filming a sequel.

First of all, "Transformers" should be gone, even if it still exists, it will probably be more than ten years later.

As for "Pirate", there should be more, and Disney should not give up this series, but the risk of doing a sequel is too great.

It is very likely that no audience will watch it.

As for "Alien", unless there are major changes, it will be impossible to continue to harvest in the domestic film market.

In other words, it is quite difficult for these three IPs to come back to life again.

It is no less than when this ip was opened at the beginning.

"Will there be "Transformers" in the future?"

This is the most discussed topic in professional circles these days.

Yes or no?
no answer,

However, whether it exists or not, this series has been silent for several years, and if it is released at this time, it will definitely be boycotted.

Not even a different director!

And it is estimated that there is no way to change it. Michael will never allow others to accept "Transformers".

Acceptance by others means his failure.

He failed, so someone else needs to take over.

And will Michael admit his failure?
Absolutely not?
