Entertainment, I just like making movies - Chapter 529 A truly phenomenal movie

The next day.

“Immortal” continues to be a hit, once again taking in 350 million at the box office, with the total box office reaching 700 million.

Two days, 717 million box office! .

Accounting for 85% of the single-day market share, it has completely become the highest-grossing film in the Lunar New Year festival, beating other films in the same period.

The 3rd and 4th were weekends, and to the shock of countless people, the box office bucked the trend and exceeded 400 million in a single day on Saturday.

Breaking 1.1 billion in three days!

Just ask who else?

The crazy rise not only made people in the film industry lose their minds, but also made countless entertainment media stunned.

They were left to vacillate, wondering whether to immediately report the incredible 1.1 billion achieved by “Immortal” in three days, or to wait a day for the opening weekend box office results to come out.

Time passed and soon, Sunday came.

The single-day box office of “Immortal” dropped slightly, maintaining a high score of 340 million.

In the four days of the first weekend, the total box office was 1.451 billion!

It broke countless records, not only surpassing the summer release “Fast 7”, but also becoming the undisputed best-selling movie of 2015.

Almost everyone who knows the movie can’t help but lament that Fang Ziheng is too boastful. How can this be 4 billion? This is a hit worth 5 billion!

Of course, it’s not that no one is sad.

At the very least, Feng Pants was very aggrieved. During the road show, he faced reporters’ provocative interviews and put on a bad face time and time again.

There is no other reason.

“Old Paoer”, produced and starring Feng Pants, was once again crushed by Fang Ziheng. This week’s box office only exceeded 200 million.

Originally, the trend of 260 million in the previous week could reach 300 million this week despite Huayi’s announcement of increased sales.

Even 400 million!

This week, the box office of “Lao Pao Er” in the first three days was very impressive, reaching 60 to 70 million in a single day, which once made Feng Pengtong and Wang Zhongjun feel lucky.

I believe that even if “Immortality” becomes a big hit and takes away most of the film schedule, there is little risk for movies in the same category.

The other party eats meat, and “Lao Pao’er” eats soup, which is considered a win-win situation.

But no one expected that “Immortality” was not an ordinary explosion, opening a huge mouth and sweeping everything.

“Old Paoer” bore the brunt of the hit and was pushed to the ground and rubbed for a week. Compared with the previous life, it received more than 200 million yuan less at the box office this week, and “Immortal” took all of it.

Magic City, in a five-star hotel.

Feng Pants threw his cell phone on the coffee table with a bang, and cursed: “What the fuck, “Immortality” has become a spirit, and it is becoming more and more monster!”

“Why, Wang Zhongjun didn’t agree to increase his holdings in Xuanfa?”

Opposite me, Guan Fu Baba asked with a frown as he smoked a cigarette.

“He said to avoid the limelight first, but spending money now won’t work. Our film has a good reputation, and we can go the route of breaking out later.”

“It’s difficult. In addition to “The Immortal”, there are two Hollywood movies next week. Even if China Film Group abandons “Sherlock” to be released today, it will focus on promoting “Star Wars”!”

Guan Hu analyzed intently and revealed the embarrassing situation that “Old Paoer” will face next.

call..

Upon hearing this, Feng Pengtong sighed, lit his cigarette and was stunned.

Everyone can see the problem. As a director who is more sensitive to the market, he naturally knows the next situation clearly.

“Immortal” is so high that whoever touches it will die. “Old Paoer” wants to avoid its edge. This is not the case for the two imported films released by China Film.

If it was Zhang Hongsen who had replaced Feng Pants, he would definitely be a hero and focus his promotional resources on the upcoming “Star Wars” to avoid being singled out by “Immortal”.

In this way, it collides with the Huayi brothers’ promotion plan for “Old Paoer”.

A week later, the trend of “Immortal” fell, and as the end of the year approached, the single-day market share price of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” was likely to be snatched away.

“Old Paoer” will be completely squeezed between the two blockbusters!

If you wait another week, it will be too long, and the reputation and box office potential of “Old Paoer” will have been exhausted.

So fucking fucked!

Feng Pengtong took a deep breath, his face became gloomy, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

He was not the only one who was angry. None of the other movies released at the same time were gritting their teeth about “Immortal”.

Alibaba Pictures, Fan Luyuan hired Teng Huatao, and once again promised to fully support “Fortress” and asked him to start the project as soon as possible.

Teng Huatao was also fascinated by the box office performance of “Immortal”. He thought of Hengyu Media’s another science fiction blockbuster “The Wandering Earth” and agreed after a little consideration.

After some discussions, “Magic City Fortress” will be launched in seven days, grabbing the popularity of “Immortal” in the third week.

It’s not that I don’t want to grab the second week’s popularity, it’s mainly that I can’t grab it.

However, both Fan Luyuan and Teng Huatao took science fiction movies too much for granted, and they dared to start shooting after only a few months of preparation.

At noon, the global opening weekend box office was also reported back to China.

“Immortality” was a small test, and in the first four days, it earned US$288 million in more than 40 countries and regions around the world.

$288 million!

Not only did it successfully top the list of the global market weekly, it also surpassed the US$251 million of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”, which greatly increased the prestige of Chinese-language films.

You know, this movie can be said to be a real super blockbuster, with a global box office of US$2 billion in its previous life.

In the North American market alone, it received US$900 million.

It’s a bit incredible that “Immortal” can dominate the other film in the third week of its most popular release.

That night, Fang Ziheng received a call from Deng Wendi.

“Director Fang, “Immortal” is so awesome, you are really amazing!”

“As a Chinese-American, I sincerely hope that movies from my motherland can sell well overseas. Although the previous movies were powerful, their influence was slightly weaker. “Immortal” is different, completely different.

With immortality as the theme, immortals and gods as the key characters, the theory of gods and immortality is too appealing to Western audiences. “

During the phone call, the wife of the media tycoon was extremely excited and sighed repeatedly, as happy as a child.

Fang Ziheng was also very excited and went to Twitter to browse the comments of foreign viewers of “Immortality”.

Not to mention, the reviews are very positive.

Except for some sunspots who question Eastern gods, most viewers are interested in Eastern mythology.

In the words of the audience, creatures that can live for a long time are strong.

Call it God!

There were not many people who provoked confrontation and promoted topics such as false gods and pagans. After all, it was just a movie.

In the eyes of many gringos, “Immortal” is as awesome as it is about Eastern mythology.

They are just curious and interested, and have not betrayed their beliefs.

Of course!

The biggest reason for the starring role is that the total global box office of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” has reached 1.6 billion US dollars.

Hollywood’s mainstream media does not believe that “Immortal” poses a threat to it, so it is just a novelty.

Under the mediation of 20th Century Fox, there was no restriction on the publicity and popularity of the movie, and we watched “The Immortal” land in the North American market as a bystander.

The third place in the North American market is “Daddy’s Home”. This comedy-drama with good jokes was born at the wrong time and was caught between two blockbusters. This week it only received more than 56 million US dollars.

The fourth place, “Little Rat 4: Cuteness on the Road to Cuteness” was even worse, with a weekly box office of less than US$30 million.

It is foreseeable that due to the consumption of the potential of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”, “Immortal” can still dominate the North American market in the new week.

The next day, a new week arrives,

As expected, “Immortality” began to become a legend and got out of control.

In seven days, the box office reached 1 billion again!

Eleven days after its release, the total box office in mainland China reached a height of 2.452 billion.

Invincible!

“Immortality” is invincible!

With its unique and progressive mythological story and the world’s top special effects level, it has become another phenomenal movie after “I’m Not the God of Medicine”.
