Chapter 590: Double harvest in word-of-mouth and box office (two-in-one)

After its release, "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" once again became popular all over the Internet.

First of all, Huang Feihong played by Yang Yi and Thirteenth Aunt played by Li Mengfei are very good!

Huang Feihong, who is highly skilled in martial arts and also cares about the country and the people, is more recognized by the audience. His fighting scenes made the audience fascinated, and his handsome postures quickly became popular among boys of all ages.

Later, many jokes appeared on the Internet, such as "Huang Feihong fought while carrying a stereo" and "No one can beat Huang Feihong in this BGM."

Netizens are talking about it, and the craze of Once Upon a Time has naturally swept the country.

Aunt Thirteen's influence is stronger than Huang Feihong.

After the movie was released, almost overnight, many people's dream lovers turned into Thirteenth Aunt!
Even the charm of this character is cross-gender, and many female viewers fall in love with Aunt Thirteen because of her cuteness and straightforwardness, and her courage to love and hate.

"Compared to the love-minded Wang Yuyan, and compared to Xiao Longnu who left Yang Guo because she was afraid of worldly prejudice, I prefer Aunt Thirteen. She liked Huang Feihong, so she didn't keep delaying her love. She just said her love directly."

"We should all learn from Aunt Thirteen. If you really love someone, just boldly break the window paper, don't hide it. Just like those soap operas and love movies, you can hide it from me. No matter how beautiful love is, it will happen like this. It is very likely that other women will take advantage of this problem!"

The two characters with almost perfect settings have attracted countless fans to the movie, not to mention other flesh-and-blood characters. They enrich the plot and make the story look more realistic, which naturally wins the love of the audience.

Precisely because of the popularity after its release, the reputation is getting better and better, and the box office results of "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" are also very good.

After "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun", it was not the previous single-day box office champion "The Beautiful Mountains and Rivers of the Motherland", but another film "Absurd Space Station" that won the title.

Compared with the 3.6 billion of "The Wandering Earth", this result seems to be a lot lower, but you must know that the competition in the National Day movie market is far more intense than the Spring Festival period in which "The Wandering Earth" is located.

The reputation of "The Beautiful Mountains and Rivers of the Motherland" has fallen sharply. The formula of four directors co-producing a gift film has been used for many years, but the plot is very torn. This shortcoming becomes more and more obvious every year. This year, it has been criticized by the audience. Each part is shot separately, the quality varies greatly, and the logic is far-fetched.

"Thirteenth Aunt is naive and optimistic. It's really good! She smiled with Huang Feihong from the very beginning. Who wouldn't be confused? Moreover, God will favor girls who love to smile! She will definitely become a positive person with Huang Feihong."

Therefore, after the 2.5 billion of "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun", there is the 1.8 billion of "Absurd Space Station", then the 1.77 billion of "The Beautiful Mountains and Rivers of the Motherland", and the 1.5 billion of "Operation Africa". 100 million.

Therefore, after the scores were opened, "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" ranked first among so many new movies during the National Day schedule with a high score of 9.2 points from more than people!
It may take a long time for the movie to be released, or after it is withdrawn from theaters, the rating will decline, or even fall below nine points, but the current rating is still true, and Mumu Film and Television has not done any marketing in this regard.

However, this was only the first fire that was ignited after the movie was released. Later, more people were attracted to come to the cinema to watch it. As the movie rating website opened the score, "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" scored extremely high Its reputation has also continued to add a lot of fuel to its popularity across the entire network.

And this throne, after "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" sat on it, it was never given up again!
On the first day of its release, the single-day box office of "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" was more than 350 million. Before the end of the National Day, its best single-day box office was 680 million on the 5th. In the end, during the National Day The total box office of the show (just during the seven days of holiday) reached 2.5 billion, ranking first!

After that, the gap is a bit broken. The fifth place dropped directly to 700 million, which is still a long way from breaking 1 billion.

2.5 billion, 3.4 billion, 4 billion, 4.5 billion
The first-month box office of "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" was set at more than 4.5 billion, which is far behind the 6 billion of "The Wandering Earth".

I don’t know if it was the past ten years, but the international situation that China faced was as turbulent as that of Huang Feihong. Those evil powers were also eyeing China. It was extremely difficult to break through. The country and the people were struggling to move forward. Yes, like people in Huang Feihong's era, they are all longing for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Naturally, its box office performance also declined rapidly. After being overtaken by "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun", "Absurd Space Station" also won the love of comedy-loving audiences with its more funny features. It overtook it on the last day of National Day. The total box office of "The Beautiful Mountains and Rivers of the Motherland".

The third place position of "The Beautiful Mountains and Rivers of the Motherland" is not very stable, because "Africa Action" is also catching up. Wu Nan's action movies and gunfight movies have a very large audience base, and this movie also follows the same trend. His style has won the love of the audience.

During the seven-day National Day holiday, "The Beautiful Mountains and Rivers of the Motherland" only maintained the single-day box office champion for two days. From the third day on, the single-day box office champion was replaced by "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun".

But overall, the enthusiasm among netizens to watch and discuss movies during this National Day period is unprecedentedly high, so much so that the National Day movie market ushered in the highest total box office data in history, breaking the previous record.

"Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" was released at this time, and it naturally aroused the resonance of many viewers who were concerned about the fate of the country. They tried their best to give the movie high scores and spared no effort to share it with their friends online. People in the industry are enjoying this movie.

Everyone can see that the gap between the top four is really not that big, and everyone has the energy to rush forward. It’s just that four movies with strong box office appeal are put together, and it is difficult for theaters to balance them. As for the proportion of films scheduled, even the first-placed "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" only accounts for 28% of the films currently scheduled, and still does not exceed 30%.

Of course, no one will criticize this movie harshly. After all, it only cost 100 million, and Mumu Films and other investors have made a lot of money.

Some online media dug up the cost of "Once Upon a Time: Part 1: Top Gun" and even revealed the cost of Yang Yi's three consecutive "Once Upon a Time" movies. They said with emotion that the investment was not very cost-effective. One movie will directly pay for itself. Moreover, the cost of three movies was repaid, and a lot of money was made from takeaways.

Indeed, the box office pressure of 100 million yuan is obviously much less than that of 500 million yuan. Like Cheng Wannian, he did not have to wait for the end of the month. During the National Day, he directly brought the best champagne to the Beijing office of Mumu Film and Television to celebrate together. It's a pity that Yang Yi is still filming a movie in Hollywood and could not join their celebration.

"We have no pressure at all now! You made enough money from one movie, and you won't be able to compensate for the second and third movies even if they don't open!" Cheng Wannian toasted to Yang Yi and Le Zehan in the United States through a video call.

Obviously, the subsequent two installments of the "Once Upon a Time" series cannot have zero box office. With the success of the first installment, the sequel's box office will definitely not be bad either.

"Compared to Rong Xin's "Absurd Space Station", the pressure is huge! I heard that they invested 450 million in this movie, which almost surpassed our "The Wandering Earth"." Cheng Wannian was still a little gloating.

"Absurd Space Station" also made money later on, but with a box office of less than 3 billion in the first month, it really can't be said to be particularly profitable, whether compared with the same type of "The Wandering Earth" last year or Yang Yi's "Once Upon a Time" in the same period. One: Top Gun" comparison.

What's more, "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" was still on November 1st, starting its new journey in the film market in many countries around the world.

It stands to reason that such a movie, which is mixed with patriotic sentiments that only many Chinese can understand, will only earn some money from Chinese students or overseas Chinese in overseas markets. It is difficult for foreigners to feel about such a movie. interest.

But after "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" was released overseas, its box office results were also very impressive!

It's not as good as "The Wandering Earth", but compared with "Fireworks of the Day" and even compared with many domestic films going overseas, the overseas box office of "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" is already good enough.

Even on external movie rating websites, you can see that a lot of Western audiences gave this movie high scores!
There are two reasons. One is that "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" has many exciting fighting scenes! It is true that Western audiences are not able to understand Huang Feihong's patriotic feelings, but this does not prevent them from appreciating the fierce and beautiful fight scenes between Huang Feihong played by Yang Yi and his opponents.

Originally, Chinese martial arts had a very good market in the West. Unfortunately, domestic film companies did not pay attention to it. They abandoned their kung fu and made martial arts films into fluttering, empty and boring fairy tale films. How could this win foreign popularity? People's love?

Now that they have seen the wonderful fighting scenes in "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun", their enthusiasm that was once ignited by Chinese martial arts has been awakened again. Naturally, this movie has gained many Western fans!

Another reason is actually more critical. When "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" was released overseas, the fourth part of "Saw", which made Yang Yi famous, was also being screened in major theaters around the world. Moreover, the horror films released by Haomeng Entertainment during the Halloween period this year are not just "Saw 4", Yang Yi's new horror film series "Death is Coming", which he went to Hollywood to shoot, was also released at the same time!
Compared with "Chain Saw 4", whose story mode is a little less fresh, the first part of "Death is Coming" played a new routine that will also make the audience feel desperate and exciting.

The protagonist at the beginning was able to foresee the crisis, and thus led many classmates and passengers to avoid the crisis of the plane explosion. However, this did not change their fate, it just allowed them to live for a while. Later, they died one after another in various bizarre circumstances. Another horrible "coincidence".

The routine is very novel and not very hidden, but the excitement felt by the audience is very strong, because it has more bold and bloody death scenes than the "Chainsaw" series, and it is far better than the "Chainsaw" series. "Horror" series can make people feel more scared and powerless.

The "Saw" series still has a clear mastermind behind the scenes, but "Death Comes" completely cannot find the hand of death that controls so many coincidences. It does not exist. How can people find a way to escape from certain death? What about fate?

Therefore, after its release, "The God of Death", Yang Yi's new horror film, directly ignited the film market around Halloween.

Because the subject matter is too bloody, "The God of Death" cannot be introduced to domestic theaters. This movie is only discussed by horror film lovers in China. Most netizens are unaware that Yang Yi has another horror film. The film became a hit.

However, foreign netizens discussed it with great enthusiasm. They marveled at the new routines of "Death Comes" and praised Yang Yi for not having a single trick that was popular all over the world. Even after the "Saw" series has been very successful, he is still playing Actively looking for new horror movie ideas.

"Yang has gone crazy. I'm very curious about how his head grows and how he can come up with such a desperate and suffocating story! God, I like "Death is Coming" so much, this is even better than "Saw" Be crazy!”

"Young has become one of my favorite directors. There is no other director as creative as him. "Saw" and "Dead Man" are all my favorites! And, you can imagine He actually makes science fiction films and literary films?”

"Who can tell me if he has a better idea? The idea of ​​"Death is Coming" is so amazing, right? After watching it, I had a psychological shadow on airplanes, buses, and even bathtubs!"

Yes, horror movie lovers are like this. They know clearly that it is scary and will be scared to death, but they still like to watch it, and the scarier it is, the more they like to watch it.

After "Dead Man" was released, it took 2 million U.S. dollars at the North American box office alone, and the global box office eventually reached 3 million U.S. dollars. It has no record that can surpass "Saw " and is better than "Saw " Slightly lower.

But breaking records is inherently a matter of having the right time, right place, and the right people. In addition to a good enough movie, you also need to have enough luck.

The box office results of "The Coming of Death" are already very good. What's more, driven by it, "Saw 4" also achieved a global box office of nearly million US dollars.

Adding these two together, Haomeng Entertainment (including Mumu Film and Television) jointly earned US$1.6 billion in box office during this Halloween period, almost becoming the most profitable film and television company in Hollywood!
Supported by the dual popularity of "The Last Day" and "Saw 4", "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun" was naturally able to gain very high popularity in the early stages of its overseas release.

After Western audiences know about it, they can't help but wonder: Will Yang Yi, the director who made "Dead Man" and the previous "Saw" series that became popular around the world, also make good-looking Eastern martial arts films? Woolen cloth?
