Entertainment, I just like making movies

Chapter 206 Irresistible, reaching the top of the global weekly box office (please order all, please

Just when Fang Ziheng and the three of them entered the elevator and went upstairs with a smile.

Yu Dong, who was about to leave for the airport, also received a text message from Bona employees in the United States.

$3.7 million!

The dazzling data shocked Yu Dong. He stood up and laughed: "Okay, okay, until God dies, I will be Bona!"

"Come on, let's go!"

Yu Dong waved his hand and said to the assistant carrying the luggage. His mood, which had been restless for many days, instantly felt much better.

The first-day box office performance of "Edge of Tomorrow" is undoubtedly a boost for Bona.

You must know that "Edge of Tomorrow" opened in only 1,900 theaters, and the film schedule was only 15%.

The box office hit 3.7 million on the first day, which is enough to show that the theater attendance rate is not bad.

These days, Yu Dong has been asking Bona's employees in the United States to collect information on movies released in North America around January.

US$3.7 million may not seem like a lot, but the potential is endless. 20th Century Fox will definitely focus on promoting "Edge of Tomorrow" next.

As Yu Dong thought, Deng Wendi, who was far away in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, California, took action and went directly to her husband Murdoch to detail the production situation of "Edge of Tomorrow".

As a media tycoon, Murdoch has a natural sense for movies. After watching the movie "Edge of Tomorrow", he immediately issued an order to strengthen publicity.

When he got off work in the afternoon, Fang Ziheng received the second text message from Deng Wendi.

"Edge of Tomorrow" is once again available in 1,500 cinemas, and the number of screens has more than doubled from 3,800 to 8,000.

Not only that, the film scheduling volume has also increased from 15% to 25%, an increase of 10 basic points.

Deng Wendi, this ‘legendary woman’ has done her best!

Tuesday, January 4, 2011.

"Edge of Tomorrow" reached a new high, reaching a height of 68.7 million, breaking the single-day box office record of "46 Million".

The evening news of 25 satellite TV stations was launched at the same time, and the boosting effect was extremely obvious, with a box office of 17 million more than the first day of release.

Wednesday, January 5th.

On the third day after the release of "Edge of Tomorrow", the single-day box office was even more impressive, once again grossing more than 69.5 million, only 500,000 short of breaking the 70 million limit.

After the box office data came out, the media and the film industry went completely crazy, and the entire entertainment industry was paying attention to this gluttonous feast.

It broke 100 million in two days, and 190 million in three days. It was only 10 million short of breaking 200 million!

It’s so scary!

Do you want to be so cruel, do you want to be so strong!

"Edge of Tomorrow" is simply awesome. Many people were shocked by this data and swallowed subconsciously.

They thought of the summer season and "Famous Catchers", and more than 20 satellite TV stations also promoted it to launch a summer season champion.

"Edge of Tomorrow"!

No matter how you look at it, it's not weaker than "Four Famous Catchers"!

For a time, the media was full of soft articles, uploading fresh data to the Internet, shouting at the top of their lungs.

In just one hour, news of "Edge of Tomorrow" breaking records one after another reached the top of the trending search lists on all major platforms.

Weibo even highlighted the movie’s box office theme, and @Fang Ziheng and other movie creators.

Audiences who have watched the movie, as well as fans and fans of all movies, rushed over immediately and presented a bunch of rainbow farts.

Major film and television companies cannot sit still.

In other words, when the first-day box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" came out, they were not calm at all.

The first to bear the brunt were the two brothers Huayi and Wang, as well as Feng Pengtong, who flew to Shenzhen to promote "If You Are the One 2".

Huayi Headquarters!

Wang Zhongjun was holding a box office data sheet, looking dazed and unable to recover for a long time.

On the table in his hand, in addition to the box office of "Edge of Tomorrow", there are also data for several movies such as "If You Are the One" and "Let the Bullets Fly".

On the sofa opposite him, Wang Zhonglei looked envious and jealous, gritting his teeth and said: "Brother, Director Han takes too much care of Fang Ziheng, he is not so shameless.

25 satellite TV news companies help with publicity. How can others play with it? The publicity aspect is completely different! "

In his opinion, without the support of satellite TV, the box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" on the second and third days would not have reached such a high level, with only over 40 million yuan.

"Edge of Tomorrow" can make 51.8 million on the 3rd, which he can understand, after all, it is the last day of the New Year's holiday.

But these two days on the 4th and 5th were just cheating!

After hearing his brother's complaint, Wang Zhongjun came to his senses and sighed quietly: "Zhonglei, please mobilize more of the company's resources to help Xiaogang, and be sure to stabilize the promotion position of "If You Are the One 2"."

"I see!"

Wang Zhonglei nodded and said with a gloomy face: "Brother, do you want to put some obstacles in the way and find some sailors?"

"No, this kind of thing can be easily detected. After all, "Edge of Tomorrow" has completely gained momentum, and some negative news in a short period of time cannot shake it."

Wang Zhongjun waved his hand and stopped Wang Zhonglei's search idea.

On the other side, Yang Cheng, the boss of Hong Kong Island Yinghuang, held a data sheet with the same look of disbelief on his face.

The box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" is so crazy, with the single-day box office approaching 70 million for two consecutive days, turning the originally invincible "Let the Bullets Fly" into a green leaf.

Yang Cheng had previously planned to hold a grand celebration banquet after "Let the Bullets Split" exceed 600 million in a few days.

Fortunately, now, affected by the schedule of "Edge of Tomorrow", "Let the Bullets Fly" has stopped at 560 million.

The single-day box office went from tens of millions on the 2nd to three to four million, and the box office revenue in a single day dropped by seven to eight million.

The difficulty of breaking through 600 million in total box office has been greatly increased, and the hope has suddenly become slim.

well.

Yang Changcheng sighed, took out his phone and dialed Jiang Wen's cell phone to discuss how to stabilize "Let the Bullets Fly".

………

January 6th.

The box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" dropped slightly, with a single daily receipt of 53 million. The total box office in the four days of release was as high as 243 million, with an average of over 60 million per day.

Looking at the entire history of Chinese-language films, including imported overseas blockbusters, except for "Avatar", no film's total box office has reached this figure.

Even "Avatar" only took five days to create a box office of 226 million, which cannot be compared with "Edge of Tomorrow" in terms of the number of movie viewings.

However, "Avatar" was released in January 2010, which is already a year ago. It was also the first real-life 3D blockbuster. Its reputation exploded and the box office harvest was strong and sustainable.

"Edge of Tomorrow" relies on publicity to break records, which means it can win without force.

Only when the total box office exceeds "Avatar" can domestic films truly stand up.

With three consecutive hits in China, "Edge of Tomorrow" officially begins its box office harvesting journey.

In the North American market, "Edge of Tomorrow" did not disappoint. After grossing US$3.7 million on the first day, the box office doubled on the second day, reaching the US$7 million mark in one fell swoop.

Not to be outdone on the third day, he took home $7.6 million.

It was released in North America for three days, with a total box office of US$18.3 million.

After the movie has been released for seven days and completed a weekend, the weekly box office rankings of North American movies can be calculated.

Deng Wendi called Yuyangyang, and he was very happy and sighed.

She really didn't expect that a Chinese science fiction movie could sell such a high box office without Lao Mouzi, Uncle Long, Brother Jie, and international superstars such as Gong Huang and Zhang Yingying.

$18.3 million!

This data caused quite a stir in the North American market.

On Twitter, many viewers who have watched the movie shared their experience of watching the movie and @their familiar friends.

Many movie tycoons also set their sights on "Edge of Tomorrow" on the day they received the data.

The most intuitive point is that Rupert Murdoch, chairman of News Corporation, personally met with Yu Dong. The two had lunch together and reached an intention to cooperate.

News Corporation injected capital into Bona, and as Bona Pictures' overseas investment was supported, the two parties worked together to stabilize and boost Bona's stock during the period when "Edge of Tomorrow" was released.

In addition, Deng Wendi also promised Fang Ziheng that he would continue to increase efforts to promote "Edge of Tomorrow" and at least make the film top three in the North American box office rankings.

Fang Ziheng thanked her. He could hear the excitement in Deng Wendi's words and knew how much this "legendary woman" wanted to make a mark at 20th Century Fox.

Previously there was "Famous Man", which allowed Deng Wendi to gain a foothold at 20th Century Fox Film Company.

There will be "Edge of Tomorrow" later. With this movie, Wendi Deng may not be able to squeeze into the core high-level position of Fox.

Of course, becoming a mere vice president is not Deng Wendi’s ultimate goal.

Her ultimate ideal is to join the board of directors of 20th Century Fox, take this opportunity to step into the core leadership of News Corporation, and become a legendary woman without quotation marks.

After two days of rest, the effect of the satellite TV boost gradually diminished.

Fang Ziheng and the film's creative team set off again to start a new round of landing promotion.

On the plane from the Imperial Capital to the Magic Capital, Fang Ziheng, Liu Qianqian, and Da Tiantian sat together, chatting about the gossip and fun in the industry.

"Have you heard? Filmmaker Zhang's kung fu movie has been shelved again. Director Wang Jiawei had new ideas and stopped filming again."

Liu Qianqian looked around and said mysteriously.

When Da Tiantian heard this, she subconsciously covered her lips and said in surprise: "Queen Zhang! Sissi, how did you know?"

"I went back to my mother's house yesterday, and she happened to invite the wives of three great directors, Chen Hong, Xu Fan, and Chen Ting, to play mahjong."

"Sister Chen Hong is Director Chen's producer, and she is very well-informed."

Liu Qianqian glanced at Fang Ziheng and lowered her voice.

"That's it!"

If Da Tiantian was thoughtful, she also glanced at Fang Ziheng and said casually: "The same goes for actress Zhang. If you don't develop well in Hollywood, why do you have to go back to China at this time and take on a time-consuming and laborious Kung Fu movie."

"Yes, the reputation I gained in Hollywood in the past few years has been wasted."

"If I were to give up on the Hollywood market, I would be more stable walking on two legs."

Liu Qianqian answered and glanced at Director Fang again.

Fang Ziheng raised the corners of his mouth and allowed the two beauties to stir up the topic but did not pick up the conversation.

He can see why Zhang's movie has been stranded, why Wang Jiawei has new ideas, and why he is not developing well in Hollywood.

It's all a cover, and the two beauties' thoughts are clear.

I feel that my little wings are strong, my magic skills are great, I can take a step further, enter the world and enter Hollywood.

Especially Liu Qianqian, after learning that "Edge of Tomorrow" had opened in the North American market two days ago, she was both happy and worried.

My thoughts were very simple. I wanted to go to Hollywood, but I was worried that I would not be famous enough in the United States. If I did, I would not be able to get a good job.

If "Edge of Tomorrow" is really a global hit, she will surely rise to the top and become an international actress.

International actresses, of course, go to Hollywood to make a career.

The same goes for Da Tiantian. When he debuted, his intention was to take an international route.

And unlike his previous life, Da Tiantian currently has two important supporting roles in "Famous Man" and "Edge of Tomorrow".

Regardless of resume or acting skills, the foundation is better than in the previous life.

She has received news that she is the only female lead in the blockbuster "The Great Wall" to be launched this year with Wanda Film and Television.

Her and Liu Qianqian's paths overlapped greatly. One was a pioneer, and the other was just starting out.

The two chatted for a few more words, but when they saw that Fang Ziheng still ignored them, they suddenly became anxious.

Liu Qianqian kicked him lightly and said pitifully: "Director, can you tell us?"

"say what?"

"It's our chance and probability of breaking into Hollywood."

Da Tiantian blinked her eyes and showed a sweet and cute smile.

"Stop dreaming, you two have no chance!"

"Why?"

The two beauties opened their eyes wide and pursed their pink lips, very unconvinced.

Why?

This is a good question!

Of course, Hollywood doesn’t want to see you, and it doesn’t want to see us Chinese actresses.

Fang Ziheng smiled.

He knew that if he didn't reveal his ugly appearance today, the two girls would definitely not let him go.

Whatever!

Brother, I will be a teacher for once and teach you science again.

Thinking of this, Fang Ziheng sat up straight, his face became serious, and he asked Liu Qianqian and Da Tiantian: "You two just didn't understand that Zhang Yingying would rather come back to shoot a kung fu movie instead of developing in Hollywood, right?"

"Uh-huh.."

The two girls nodded their heads, looked at each other, and sat upright, looking like good students.

"That's because Actress Zhang can no longer survive in Hollywood and has no choice but to return to China."

"Sissi, I told you before, Hollywood is not a paradise or a movie mecca. It is extremely xenophobic and extremely exclusive to us Chinese."

Fang Ziheng spoke quietly and strengthened his tone a bit.

As early as when he was filming "Detective Chinatown", he had a chat with Liu Qianqian and advised her to focus on China and not think about everything.

Hollywood does not welcome artists from other countries. Even if a movie occasionally hits Hollywood, it will be difficult to gain a foothold.

Unless, like Uncle Long and Brother Jie, you have several consecutive films that sell well all over the world, and have a good harvest at the box office and DVD home theater, you can truly be recognized by Hollywood capital and regard you as a cash cow.

"But.."

"It's nothing, but you two are not qualified to be in Hollywood, whether it is acting skills or fame!"

Fang Ziheng poured a basin of cold water on them, giving the two beauties a chill and a happy feeling.

After saying that, he closed his eyes, leaned back, and went to sleep.

Liu Qianqian and Da Tiantian were stunned. They looked at each other and stopped talking.

a long time.

The two cheered each other up and restored confidence in the little sisters.

"Sissi, it's okay. You already have two female-led movies that have been released around the world. It will definitely be okay."

"Tiantian, you too, don't be discouraged. We are still young. If we can't do it in one year, we can do it in two years. If we can't do it in two years, we can do it in five years. We will definitely be able to break into Hollywood."

"Yes, we don't believe in this evil. We will definitely be able to break into Hollywood. Come on!"

"come on!"

Fang Ziheng: "."

Hit me in the face and say harsh words to me, right?

January 7th.

The box office results for the fifth day of "Edge of Tomorrow" are out.

Still invincible, it once again hit a box office of 50.8 million.

Then on the 7th, 8th, and 9th, the single-day box office continued to maintain stable figures of 45.8 million, 48.6 million, and 47.5 million.

The 8th and 9th were weekends, and the box office achieved a slight reversal of decline.

"Edge of Tomorrow" was released for seven days and grossed an unprecedented total box office of 384.9 million in its first week.

Domestic entertainment media and people in the entertainment industry are all confused.

In the seven days since its release, "Edge of Tomorrow" has generated wave after wave of movie-watching crazes, even more so than "The Big Four", completely recreating the original phenomenon-level popularity of "Avatar."

More than three hundred and eighty million!

Who else!

People in the industry wanted to shout loudly to express their excitement and frustration.

Report after report appeared again, and the editors-in-chief of major media urged their subordinates to announce the situation of "Edge of Tomorrow" to the world as soon as possible.

While there is constant noise on the Internet, countless netizens and fans are discussing whether "Edge of Tomorrow" can break the total box office record of "Avatar", and major film and television companies are focusing on the domestic market.

The time came unknowingly to noon on January 10th.

The box office sales for the first seven days overseas also quietly spread back to China.

"Edge of Tomorrow" has also flourished in overseas markets and achieved commendable results.

It was released in North America for seven days, with a weekend box office of US$49.3 million, ranking first in the North American box office weekend rankings, beating all Hollywood movies in the same period.

Not only in North America, but also in the Asian market and the European market, it has achieved good box office.

Together with the box office in other overseas regions, "Edge of Tomorrow" has an irresistible attitude and has become the global film market's weekly box office champion!

Didi

Didi

A series of text message ringtones, like a reminder, sounded on the bosses of several Chinese film giants.

China Film Chairman's Office.

After lunch, Director Han leaned on the boss's chair and fell asleep, still recalling the morning in his mind.

He and Chen Yu, several middle-level cadres in the distribution department, were delighted to learn about the box office success of "Edge of Tomorrow" in its first weekend.

His subordinates all gave him a thumbs up, praising him for his precise vision and leading China Film to invest in a hit movie.

dong dong

There was a rapid knock on the door.

"Enter!"

Dong Han spoke clearly and slowly opened his quiet and deep eyes.

The offices were pushed away, and Chen Yu strode in with a flushed face, holding a form.

"Director Han, "Edge of Tomorrow" has exploded again!"

"What broke out again?"

Director Han was surprised, took the form and looked down.

Didn't it just explode this morning? How else could it explode?

The moment he lowered his head, Director Han was stunned.

He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, picked up the reading glasses on the table, put them on, and looked at the data on the form again.

On the snow-white A4 paper, there are rows of dazzling data.

Over the seven-day weekend in North America, "Edge of Tomorrow" grossed $49.3 million!

Damn it!

Director Han was also excited. He stood up quickly, stared at Chen Yu and asked with a trembling voice: "Is this data true?"

"It's absolutely true, Director Han, "Edge of Tomorrow" was a global hit and really won the global weekly box office championship!"

My new book is very well written and I must support it.
