Chapter 383 [66] A new record in Chinese film history is born!
"House of Flying Daggers" world premiere, a Spring Festival Gala in July!
"Chen Yu: A double actor who can write songs and perform magic"!
"House of Flying Daggers: A new benchmark for domestic martial arts movies"!
"The <Hero> Effect, can Zhang Yimou realize it again?" 》!
……

Early the next morning, not only the media in mainland China, but also Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and other countries reported on the premiere of "House of Flying Daggers".

The news is unprecedented.

The ratings of this party also taught the industry a very real lesson.

21.43%!

Not only did it shock the main station of CCTV, but other local satellite TV stations were also directly off guard.

It’s true that Lao Mouzi can make movies, but he didn’t expect that he could be so awesome at a party? !

They obviously don't know that the opening ceremony of the 08 Olympic Games was hailed as a miracle in the history of the Olympic Games; it was not Lao Mouzi who personally performed it, but his royal guide's casual show of his skills shocked everyone.

With the popularity of this premiere, Chen Yu's fame and the discussion about him on the Internet have become more and more intense.

Indeed, the talents displayed by Chen Yu were something that many netizens did not expect.

The exterior wall posters of several starring roles of Chen Yu have been stretched to their maximum size at the entrances of theaters in several major cities in China.

A vote is truly hard to come by.

"I visited two theaters near me and couldn't get it!"

Many people knew that he could sing in the past, but after a long time of "archaeological research", only two songs were found. However, someone who was interested still found out that the duet with Liu Yifei was indeed arranged and written by Chen Yu himself.

Liu Yifei also asked Liu Xiaoli to buy it early in the morning on the 11th. She was almost frightened by the people in the theater. They were all citizens queuing up to buy movie tickets for "House of Flying Daggers".

"..."

"It's only 40 yuan, buy a ticket and go see it!"

The disadvantage is of course that it is inconvenient and refunding the tickets is also troublesome; the advantage is that the pre-sale box office is basically empty. Anyone who buys movie tickets is an audience who wants to watch it. Even if they don’t have time to watch, they don’t have time to refund the ticket, right?
And the pre-sales are much stronger than those in later generations.

"Several nearby theaters have no tickets for the 16th, 17th, and 18th!"

"Will you give me the report after reading it?"

In this way, the pre-sale box office of "House of Flying Daggers" has "reversely declined" in a very strange trend!

"I just bought the size 19!"

Downloading has been very convenient in the past two years.

“I don’t know if it’s as good as it sounds!”

Chen Yu has really never experienced the premiere of a blockbuster film in the past few years, because he had no money to do extras in those years, so he only watched online resources.

In other words, these talents are very likely to be his usual hobbies and accumulation. Many people are really surprised that such hobbies can be so good.

Of course, countless netizens are curious, and the biggest effect brought by the premiere is actually the many passers-by and viewers.

Sometimes the herd mentality is very scary. It is because of this mentality that hunger marketing in later generations can go astray.

Of course, his fans strongly suggest that Chen Yu release an album, while netizens are curious about his creative abilities.

“At the earliest, there was only one on the 19th, and the location was not very good!”

Before the age of 18, he was unremarkable. He was just an ordinary high school student. Many reporters had already investigated this.

Some people have never been to the cinema at all, but they had a lot of fun watching the premiere, so they went to the cinema to buy one, but found out that they couldn't buy it, which further aroused people's desire to buy.

In 05, movie tickets had to be purchased at the cinema; this had advantages and disadvantages.

But Zhou Jilun started learning music at the age of 3. This has been exposed for a long time, but what about Chen Yu?

The bigger the blockbuster, the better the pre-sales. Many people are joining in the fun, the pictures are fresh, and besides, it’s summer vacation again.

"Damn it, I can't buy it. The tickets for the 17th and 18th are gone!"

Everyone can predict that a commercial blockbuster that will surpass the box office of "Hero" is coming.

However, this time, the marketing of "House of Flying Daggers" was indeed more intense than that of "Heroes", and more money was spent.

Radio stations, newspapers, media, etc. are all full.

You know, the last person to be hailed as a genius in the entertainment industry was Zhou Jilun.

It is often difficult to get a ticket a few days before the premiere, and many scalpers will increase the price at the cinema door, so this is the reason why the pre-sale box office has been so high in the past few years.

The total pre-sale box office of "House of Flying Daggers" on the first day was 512 million.

There was almost overwhelming publicity.

Pre-sales in offline theaters are rising steadily.

Scalpers have also made a great contribution.

This time, "Traveling on Mountains and Rivers" and "Not Called a Hero" were subtitled, and they were also two songs written and written by him.

Listening to Liu Yifei's description now, it still feels a little unreal.

The next day, the single-day pre-sale box office almost doubled, reaching 902 million, and the total pre-sale box office reached 1414 million!
This has exceeded the 2 million miracle created by the two-day pre-sale of "Hero" that year; and the popularity of the premiere continued on the third day.

Zhang Weiping is really confident about this movie, so he is willing to spend money on it. Everything highlights his courage to be the first in the world, and it is a selling point in every aspect.

Magic, songwriting, martial arts, and acting. This is indeed a very talented template.

And the reverse decline is outrageous.

In the past life, many people felt this way.

But this life is obviously even more outrageous.

"Chinese Cameron"!
"The next part <Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon>!" 》

"The ambition to hit the Oscars!" 》

"<Hero> Is the record about to be broken? 》

……

The media has begun to brag in different ways. Cameron's movies have the highest box office in the world, and more than one of them. Now China has finally given birth to one.

These days, many film critics have begun to come forward, predicting that the quality of "House of Flying Daggers" may be on par with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon." The whole of China has a sense of being unified by Zhang Yimou.

The movie hasn't actually been released yet, and Chen Yu was a little stunned by the onslaught of media reports. In recent years, Lao Mouzi has really had a "who else would you rather me in today's world" attitude, and no one in the country can beat him.

Of course, this is something that the National Film Administration is happy to see. The birth of such a phenomenal film in China does have cross-era significance.

Just like when "Hero" came out.

On July 2004, 7, "House of Flying Daggers" premiered in the Hong Kong region for the first time.

Tomorrow is the Mainland Treasure Island...Starting on the 17th, Japan, South Korea, Singapore and other Asian countries...North America and Europe on the 20th.

Although it has not achieved the same unification of all countries in the world as in "The Matrix 3", it is already the highest treatment that Sony has striven for.

"The total box office of Xiangjiang's zero-hour show is 41!"

"The total box office on the 15th was 220 million!"

On the morning of the 16th, Chen Yu asked Pang Liwei and got a somewhat unsatisfactory result.

This data is far worse than that of "Hero"!
"Hero" has a total box office of 2664 million, ranking second in the year. The first place is "Infernal Affairs" with a total box office of 5505 million.

The first-day box office of the two movies, "Hero" was higher, 308 million!
"Infernal Affairs" works from behind.

“It’s similar to the situation on the first day of pre-sales in mainland China!”

"'House of Flying Daggers' is inherently weaker than 'Hero'. If it surpasses 'Hero' at the box office, it can only rely on subsequent word-of-mouth fermentation!"

Although Chen Yu is participating in the rehearsals for the Olympics, his heart is all about the box office.

After all, this time is the key to whether he can resist the box office.

He believes that the plot of this film is better than that of "Hero"; as well as his personal fighting, acting skills, etc., he has already tried his best. If the box office does not surpass "Hero" in the end, even if it is closer, In fact, he can still accept it in his heart.

But to be like the previous life, the mainland is only 1 million short. This is obviously unjustifiable no matter what.

After finally waiting until night, "House of Flying Daggers" was released in the mainland in the early morning, and Zhang Weiping also conducted a "zero o'clock operation". This was the first time that a domestic blockbuster received such treatment.

The original "The Matrix 3" and "The Day After Tomorrow" have all been produced, and the response has been very good. All viewers who watch the movie at midnight can get a small gift.

There are even signatures of Chen Yu and Liu Dehua.

Although "Hero" was also released in the early morning in 2002, Zhang Weiping did not do so out of consideration of the risks of releasing a commercial blockbuster in China for the first time.

Therefore, the total national box office of "Hero" at zero-hour screenings is not high, only 80.

Today, the pre-sale box office of "House of Flying Daggers" in the mainland has exceeded 5000 million, far exceeding the 3000 million box office record set by "Hero".

The box office boss in Hong Kong doesn't care. In the Mainland, everyone obviously wants to know what the final box office of "House of Flying Daggers" can be, and whether it can break the 2.5 million of "Hero". This is the key.

Drip!

Chen Yu did not wait for the news about Lao Mouzi's departure for the road show. Instead, he received news from the National Theater notifying him of his third audition.

Chen Yu scored 68 points in the written examination, barely reaching the passing mark for the interview.

The first round of the third test is on July 7. The content of the test is similar to the third test of the art test. It is nothing more than an assessment of performance and basic abilities. But no one knows what the specific test will be. This will only be clear on site.

"Let's go, we're going to the New Film Alliance too!"

Pang Liwei's text message was also sent at this time. Chen Yu tidied up his appearance and went downstairs to join Lao Mouzi and others.

Although both of them were very busy during the day and had to rehearse various things, they still couldn't miss the road show, and Lao Mouzi was no exception. Chen Yu stayed with him and didn't learn anything else. He really kept his energy high.

True time management master!
It's not the kind that plays with women, but he can coordinate all kinds of things very well. Chen Yu really admires Lao Mouzi for this.

In terms of energy, he is more energetic than many young people.

"The pre-sale at the zero-point venue is not sold out yet?"

Chen Yu asked Zhang Yimou during the premiere in the theater.

"How can it be sold out? First- and second-tier cities such as Imperial Capital and Magic City have such a large number of moviegoers, but other third- and fourth-tier theater chains cannot handle it!"

"but……"

Zhang Yimou smiled: "It's easy to surpass the zero-point box office of "Hero"!"

"House of Flying Daggers" has already sold 110 million pre-sales at the zero-point screening. No one knows what figure it will reach in the end.

After finally interacting with the audience who attended the premiere, "House of Flying Daggers" finally kicked off in theaters across the country.

Although Zhang Yimou and Chen Yu were looking at the big screen in front of them, they were actually waiting for the final data from the zero-point field.

As awesome as Lao Mouzi, he also wants to achieve the same achievements as Cameron.

The box office is better than the other one.

"coming!"

Seeing Pang Liwei's mobile phone screen light up, Zhang Yimou immediately sat up straight, and Chen Yu also moved closer. Pang Liwei looked at the phone, suppressing her inner excitement and said: "213 million!"

"..."

The expressions of Chen Yu and Zhang Yimou were both smiling for a moment.

The zero-point box office was 213 million.

A new record in Chinese film history was born.

He comes from Zhang Yimou's "House of Flying Daggers", starring Chen Yuzhang, Ziyi, Liu Dehua and Mei Yanfang.

Although the zero-point screening does not represent the final box office of the movie, a good start is much better than a bad start.

"Okay, 213 million. It looks like we can hit a box office of 2000 million tomorrow!"

Lao Mouzi smiled there, tomorrow is Friday, and the day after tomorrow will be the day when the box office will really take off.

"In the past two years, there have been 2 more theaters and 180 screens. I hope the final box office will exceed that of "Heroes"!"

The glory of "Hero" has become a thing of the past. This is what Lao Mouzi wants to see.
