China Entertainment: Starting from 07 Kuainan

"Ant-Man" and "The Gods" were released at the same time, and everyone is infinitely optimistic about "Ant-Man".

Rather than being optimistic about "Ant-Man", it's better to be optimistic about Marvel.

"Avengers 5", released in May, grossed US$2 billion at the global box office. The superhero movie has taken the world by storm!
Therefore, most media are optimistic about "Ant-Man".

Especially the North American market.

Facts have proved that the media’s predictions were not groundless. They were right, but not entirely.

From July 7.17th to July 7.19th, the first weekend box office of "Fengshen Part 1800" in the North American market was only US$600 million, and the single-day box office was only US$ million.

In contrast, Ant-Man grossed $5700 million in its first weekend, three times that of The Gods.

But in the Chinese market, "Ant-Man" can only be the younger brother.

"Fengshen" has a box office of 5.6 million in three days, 1.7 million on Friday, 2.1 million on Saturday, and 1.8 million on Saturday.

Following "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Avengers 2", "Fengshen" has become the third movie in domestic film history to have a box office of over 2 million in a single day!

On the other hand, "Ant-Man" only had a box office of 1.8 million in three days.

No more, no less, it is also three times the difference.

In the mainland market, "Ant-Man" was a complete failure!
In the North American market, "Fengshen Part 1" was a complete failure?
Not at all.

In fact, both Star Media and the creative team are satisfied with this box office.

After all, "Feng Shen" is a serious Chinese myth. Before its official release, Star Media had very low expectations.

As long as the first weekend sales in the North American market exceed US$10 million, it will be considered as achieving the goal.

Lu Yang was satisfied.

Damimi was also satisfied.

As the heroine of a movie, the film was successful, what is she dissatisfied with?
In the past few days since the movie was released, she has been the most popular among domestic female stars, although Hollywood is not very fond of her.

But in the Asian market, her face is still very recognizable.

However, the one who benefited the most from the cast of "Feng Shen" was not her, but the three "old drama stars" Fei Xiang (King Zhou), Li Xuejian (Ji Chang), and Ni Dahong (Jiang Ziya).

If we add more, we have to include Lu Yang.

Scheduling large scenes has always been Lu Yang's shortcoming, but "Feng Shen" has a large number of war scenes. The biggest scene mobilized thousands of extras.

Thousands of people, boundless.

That scene took ten days to shoot. The extras were exhausted, the lead actor was exhausted, and Lu Yang was almost the same.

But it's all worth it.

That war scene received unanimous praise from the industry and outside.

If the division of seventh-generation directors is officially established, Lu Yang will definitely be the leading figure among seventh-generation directors.

Of course, the guide for "Fengshen Part 2" will also be handed over to him.

Like similar series, Star Media rarely changes directors. At the beginning of filming, they have to sign at least two consecutive film contracts.

The same director can ensure the continuity of the film and thus the overall quality of the film.

Next, the box office of "Fengshen" skyrocketed. While the box office of the movie was soaring, the stock price of Xingchen Cinema also ushered in a three-month decline.

In the end, the stock price stabilized at around 150 yuan, which was a five-fold increase compared to the issue price.

The success of "Fengshen" has an impact far beyond that.

Production companies such as Huayi, Enlight, Bona, etc. have made up their minds and are preparing to launch large-scale productions.

Just like in 00-10, Chinese-language commercial films have once again ushered in the era of blockbusters.

Compared with the previous round of blockbusters, the investment in this round has generally more than doubled.

One hundred million?

That can only be considered a small to medium cost.

The times have changed.

Without 3 million, we would be embarrassed to shout blockbuster slogans.

then.

Time has quietly come to August. At this moment, the box office of "Feng Shen" has exceeded 8 billion. Then, "Monster Hunt" was released, adding fire to the movie market.

"Monster Hunting" is a project controlled by Yanjing Culture, which is another top spot in the Beijing circle.

The background is very hard.

One of the major shareholders behind the scenes is Boss Zhang, a madman from Chaoshan.

Boss Zhang has been swaying in the secondary market and has successively held companies such as Shanghai Pudong Development Bank, Shougang Group, Kaisa, and Gemdale Group.

The Baoneng-type boss in Baowan Battle follows the pattern of Boss Zhang. The insurance was wasted.

The road is wild, the background is hard, and he is invincible.

In her previous life, the heroine who was criticized in the TV series "Snow Leopard" was Boss Zhang's sister-in-law.

Really bring capital into the group.

People film movies just to chase their dreams, just like Director Bi, who chases the showbiz dream.

Since it is in the Beijing area, outsiders will definitely not be used.

The original male lead in "Monster Hunt" was originally Lin Gengxin.

After all, there are only a few actors in China who can compete at the box office and have the right appearance.

But the intention was negotiated, and the people changed again.

Zhang Gongzi Ruoyun became the male lead.

The female lead is still Bai Baihe.

of course.

Mr. Zhang definitely didn’t join the group with empty words, even if his father is good friends with Wang Jinghua, a senior executive of Yanjing Culture.

That's not OK.

It has to be exchanged for real money.

Before "Monster Hunt" was officially released, no one knew whether the movie would be a hit. The total investment was nearly 2 million. Even if it invested 20%, it would still be 4000 million.

There is no doubt that this is a big gamble.

Zhang Jian, take a gamble!
Fortunately, he won the bet.

"Monster Hunt" became a hit at the box office. Even under the shadow of "Feng Shen", it still grossed 8300 million at the box office on the first day.

The three-day box office on the first weekend was 2.5 million!
Weekly box office second!
The key point is that Mr. Zhang also became popular.

As we all know, movies are the most popular source of popularity. Once a movie becomes popular, the resources will skyrocket.

The success of "Monster Hunt" is equivalent to adding another fire.

The curtain of the blockbuster era 2.0 has officially begun!

Come on!

The day before yesterday, Huayi officially announced an investment of 3.8 million to create a domestic fantasy blockbuster.

The next day, Bona officially launched a domestic science fiction blockbuster with an investment of 4 million.

Light?

Guangguang didn't shout. The movie they previously invested in, "To the End of Time" directed by Ning Hao, will be released this year.

Target: Spring Festival!

Seeing that several leading film companies have launched large-scale productions, hot money from all walks of life is once again pouring into the film and television industry.

The situation is great!
At the same time, Lu Yuan also left UC and officially joined the team of "Pacific Rim 2".

If he didn't join the team, Da Tiantian might have to commit suicide and go to UMass.

She has already seen through this movie. In the past two years, Da Tiantian has certainly not stopped filming.

however.

Her film career has not been smooth.

The two movies that were released one after another were both flops.

My parents didn't recognize me.

This is not.

She listened to Boss Lu's advice and went back to film a TV series. Now, the TV series has been completed and she is just waiting for "Pacific Rim 2" to be released.

Da Tiantian has high hopes for this movie.

A turnaround, all thanks to this movie!
After all, Lu Yuan's movies have never failed.

Not even one!

If Boss Lu knew what Da Tiantian was thinking, he would definitely tell Da Tiantian.

Wrong!

The Lunar New Year movie "Shadow" will probably fail.

People make mistakes, horses make mistakes, and the invincible golden body will be broken sooner or later. (End of chapter)
