Chapter 611 The King of Comedy
On August 1.8th, Monday, the box office data of [-] million, although it shocked many insiders!
However, the previous average attendance rate of more than 80.00% is definitely impossible. The large-scale national release means that the audience flow will be dispersed on a large scale, but even so, "A Chinese Ghost Story" still maintains about 50.00% of the attendance. Compared with the daily broadcast volume of at least five shows in each theater, the audience market is still full of potential.

"I'm afraid it will break 20 billion again this week?"

"According to the current box office trend, it may not be possible to break 20 billion this week, but it is definitely not a problem to break 76 billion. Looking at Miaoyan, it has been predicted that the total box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" will reach more than [-] billion!"

"More than 76 million? It's crazy!"

"I guess Miaoyan is also afraid. I remember that they predicted that the total box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" was only about 20 billion. As a result, the box office exploded in the first week, and then they raised it to 50 billion in the second week, and it turned out that the box office was more than 40 billion in two weeks. , They have been slapped in the face frequently, this will directly increase to 76 billion, which is really enough!"

The industry recalled the tragic experience of Miaoyan. In fact, not only this website, but also many film organizations predicted that the box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" could not keep up with the box office trend.It's just that the meow eye gets more attention and is more famous!

"A Chinese Ghost Story" has almost become a phenomenon-level super movie at the moment!The media are exclaiming that this year's summer, there will be no one who can stop Ning Sheng's new type of ghost film. It gave all the media a fright!
In the single-day box office on August 1.7th, although "A Chinese Ghost Story" still won the championship with a score of 1.5, it squeezed "Van Helsing" to the second place, and "The King of Comedy" just released followed closely with a score of [-] million. Finally, it is almost one step away from the championship!
Especially on the first day of the premiere of the King of Comedy, even though there were nearly a thousand fewer theaters than "A Chinese Ghost Story", it was still able to win a single-day box office of 1.5 million, and the attendance rate as high as 80.00% is the fundamental!
On the second day, on Douban and other movie websites, almost all the ratings of the movie were between 8.9 and 9.2. With such a good reputation and such a high attendance rate, even though the cost of the movie is not high, the production cost It was even less than [-] million, and most of the expenses were actors' remuneration, but Zhou Xingxing's self-written and directed first film did explode into people's eyes!

If the box office results on the first day are not enough to prove too much, it can only be said that fans came for the appeal of Zhou Xingxing, but when the second day, the third day, until the end of this week, in August NO On the morning of .16, the weekly box office data for the week from August 8th to August 9th was released, and no one had any doubts about Zhou Xingxing's drama film without special effects and intense action scenes!

Surprisingly, in the third week of its release, "A Chinese Ghost Story" still won the domestic box office champion. In this week, it once again scored 23.6 billion, with a total of 70.6 billion in three weeks, officially refreshing Ning Sheng's domestic box office. This is a new box office record, and it is also a new box office record for Huaxia movies in China!

Although this is the time period when the film has accumulated the most strength, the number still shocked the entire circle.

As for Miaoyan movies, looking at the results of "A Chinese Ghost Story" this week, and then looking at the total figures accumulated in the past three weeks, I suddenly feel that the figures they predicted are a bit unsafe!
Why use another?To be on the safe side, Miaoyan Forecast secretly adjusted the box office forecast for "A Chinese Ghost Story", raising the original 76 billion to 86 billion.

This small move did not hide the eyes of some people.Some people jokingly said that the film software company represented by Miaoyan Forecast must be at odds with Ning Sheng, because every time they encounter Ning Sheng's film, they are not sure about the situation, and the data has been changed without being sure.

Shouldn't you be slapped in the face again this time?

After a substantial increase in the film schedule, "A Chinese Ghost Story" has too much potential to explode. According to the current development trend of "A Chinese Ghost Story", next week, even though it is already the fourth week, with the support of nearly [-] theaters, The box office will still be a big number that everyone is looking forward to!
Of course, the movie market is brutal.

If you are a blockbuster, even if the cost is several million, the theaters are willing to arrange for you to arrange a movie that exceeds the big cost. A few weeks are enough to keep you alive, and this is still under the condition that the production company is good enough and has enough influence on the theater.

There is no doubt that "A Chinese Ghost Story" has the advantages of both. It is produced by a big company, and it is a work with a high box office that can make theaters a lot of money.

It is worth mentioning that the daily box office of a movie is not roughly fixed. It has two intervals. Generally, Monday to Thursday belongs to one interval, because most people in this interval are at work and fewer people watch movies. .

And Friday to Sunday is another interval.Commonly known as the three-day weekend!

Normally, the box office on rest days may be at least double or even triple the box office on weekdays. Taking "A Chinese Ghost Story" as an example, its box office on Monday of the third week was 1.8 million. It is normal for the daily box office to exceed [-] million, which is why "A Chinese Ghost Story" exploded at the box office in the third week!
Of course.

This is also the reason why the film circle gathers to fight every summer or during the Spring Festival and other holidays. At this time, the audience basically does not have to go to work, and they are the most likely to go to the cinema to watch movies, and the box office base is the largest!
The summer vacation is such a golden time, and students are always the main force of movie consumption in August!
Although the performance of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is very impressive, Ning Sheng still pays close attention to another work, which is Zhou Xingxing's "The King of Comedy". To put it bluntly, Ning Cheng felt that the one who took the championship from "A Chinese Ghost Story" in the end was not "The King of Comedy", but "Thunderbolt Angel 20", which will be released on NO.2!
And Zhou Xingxing's "King of Comedy", which Ning Sheng and the media have been paying attention to, did not take the championship from "A Chinese Ghost Story" this week, but it also climbed to the runner-up position all the way. A feature film that reached 8.5 million yuan has remained stable all the way. When the Douban score was still as high as 19.6 points, it won [-] billion at the box office in the first week, which is definitely a big profit!

But the media didn't know that they were tired of Ning Sheng's dominance, and they still felt that they were very uncomfortable being slapped in the face by Ning Sheng frequently, so after "The King of Comedy" showed the potential to hit the championship position, everyone reported it even more, and they did it one after another. She asserted, "This comedy dark horse will defeat Ning Cheng's "A Chinese Ghost Story"!", as if wishing to snatch the crown from Ning Cheng's head immediately!
"The "King of Comedy" directed by Zhou Xingxing is his transition from an actor to a director. "The King of Comedy" shows a very meticulous director style. In this film, even a small The supporting roles, and even the supporting roles of the supporting roles are very brilliant. For example, there is a child in the neighborhood without pants, a girl holding a doll, an old man who sings Cantonese opera in English, Grandpa Hong, etc. In "The King of Comedy" , Zhou Xingchi plays Yin Tianqiu, an extra actor who has experienced the bitterness of the world but is still obsessed with acting. Through the shaping of this role, Zhou Xingchi showed the audience another side of his acting talent: it turns out that tears can also be brought into the smile."

"The King of Comedy" expresses Zhou Xingxing's mental journey of many years as a comedian, and the iconic line "I am an actor" is Zhou Xingxing's inner summary of his own acting path. Zhou Xingxing passed "The King of Comedy" Come to announce to the world: He is not just a funny star, he also has a strong humanistic appeal, and he will also read and study "Actor's Self-cultivation". Through this movie, Zhou Xingxing found his own philosophical existence: he It’s only when you’re an actor that you can do more.”

""The King of Comedy" is a movie of Zhou Xingxing, the king of comedy. This movie doesn't have many obviously funny dialogues and howls, but Zhou Xingxing is really acting in this movie, which is different from the "pretending" in his early movies. "There are essential differences: For example, at the beginning of the movie, Yin Tianchou clings to the script, and he declares that he will raise Liu Piaopiao for the rest of his life, etc. The shots of this movie are also beautifully handled, and the plot of the movie is ups and downs. The theme of the film is also very clear: faith, persistence, and being kind; in addition, the music of the film is also very good, capturing the popular musical elements in love-themed films!"

Not only in the media, but also on the Internet, many of the lines in "The King of Comedy" have become the most popular topics among netizens, especially the phrase "I support you!" has almost become the most popular among many boys who recently confessed their love words!
However, compared to "A Chinese Ghost Story" which completed three consecutive championships, Zhou Xingxing's "The King of Comedy" had a double hit at the word-of-mouth box office. To many people's surprise, "Van Helsing" actually ushered in a small explosion when the film schedule further declined. , the single-day box office received a full nearly [-] million last weekend, and the attendance rate was almost on par with "A Chinese Ghost Story"!
However, this is the last flashback of "Van Helsing". Ning Sheng is not very surprised by the small explosion of "Van Helsing". Compared with some classic vampire movies in Ning Sheng's memory, this movie is actually not bad, even in some of his movies. As for the shining point, Ning Cheng thinks it's really awesome.Its a good movie!

Although many people focus on the competition between directors of the two countries and films of the same type, in fact the audiences of the two films do not conflict.

At least, it won't be too tense.

After all, the cultural basis for the production of the two films is completely different!
However, in terms of success, he is better than himself, at least Ning Cheng himself thinks so, and the three-week release time of "A Chinese Ghost Story" also proved Ning Cheng's conclusion with facts. "Not only broke the box office record of China, but also broke many records of Chinese movies in Asian countries!
It seems that Ning Sheng's former recording machine has restarted!
Then, at a jaw-dropping speed, almost swept all the records of Asian movies!
Ning Sheng used the most intuitive data to tell the industry who is the well-deserved king of this schedule!
Even if Zhou Xingxing is your comedy king, even if "The King of Comedy" is a dark horse with a double harvest at the word-of-mouth box office, you can't be him alone!

And "A Chinese Ghost Story" is completely popular!
If some people expressed doubts about the box office potential of "A Chinese Ghost Story" before, now "A Chinese Ghost Story" has proved its success and its strong long-term box office potential due to its good reputation with solid data!

Lu Han's manager is very busy.

Although Lu Han has been a super popular idol since his debut, especially when he first flew solo from EXO, he would cause riots if he appeared casually, but in recent years because he has no representative works and no solid works that continue to attract fans, his The popularity has been slipping quietly, passing away invisible!This point can be seen from Lu Han's endorsement contract and the film contracts he can receive!

But now with the popularity of the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story", Lu Han's popularity has exploded again and continues to rise. As Lu Han's manager, he is naturally very excited and has to help Lu Han face interview invitations from major media and Countless announcements and invitations, the old waist is almost exhausted.

Fortunately, there are many managers of his level. As Lu Han's direct manager, he has second-, third- and fourth-level managers to help him handle affairs. These low-level managers are more like his assistant.This is the style of a big-name broker.

Under the careful arrangement of his manager, Lu Han began to accept a large number of interview announcements or guest appearance invitations on variety shows. In addition to taking advantage of the exposure during this period to re-gather popularity, he was also continuing to promote "Ghost Girl" As for Ning Sheng and Shi Shi, both are lazy people, one went home to take their children, and the other ran to find his little sister to continue the promotion of another movie "Thunderbolt Angel 2".And Young Master Rong is busy with his music comeback plan!
Therefore, Lu Han can say that now he is alone supporting the follow-up publicity task of "A Chinese Ghost Story"!

Of course, this is killing two birds with one stone for Lu Han and his team!

"---Yes."

"Filming is hard work, but one day when I got up at three o'clock in the morning and saw that the lights in Director Ning's room were still on, I felt that my hard work was nothing."

At the front desk, Lu Han is being interviewed.

When a reporter asked him how to comment on Ning Sheng, he thought for a long time before saying, "Director Ning is like my professional teacher, he taught me a lot of things that will benefit me for life, especially in acting. I feel that it was Director Ning who allowed me to step into the circle of actors with both my true feet."

The entire summer vacation in China has become more lively because of the addition of "The King of Comedy". Movie fans cheerfully choose a movie they like to watch every day, and then go home to review movie reviews and exchange opinions with friends. And those film actors who have not yet released their films and are about to release their works in the summer are doing their best to promote their films, including the three girls of Ning Tong who are also busy with the promotion of "Thunderbolt Angel 2". Finally, on the day of the premiere of NO.20, Ning Cheng was pulled over to the platform, just thinking of "A Chinese Ghost Story" which was still in theaters. While watching "Thunderbolt Angel 2" in the theater, Ning Cheng muttered in his heart, "I Is it counted as defecting to the enemy, helping one's competitors to deal with oneself in turn?"
