With the first day's box office results in, Daxu Culture was naturally overjoyed.
Before its release, people were somewhat worried, since there were too many similar films being released at the same time, and the competition would definitely be fierce.
Not to mention, some of these films are directed by well-known directors in the horror genre.
These guys may not be good at anything else, but they definitely have a knack for making horror movies.
For Daxu Culture to stand out among so many competitors is obviously much more difficult than it was last time when it occupied a single track.
It's worth noting that when 'Mr. Vampire' was released last time, there were no other films of the same genre competing for resources.
Of course, it won't lose box office revenue to anyone else, after all, it's the pioneer of zombie films.
But this time, everyone rushed into this field, leading to even greater competition in the zombie film genre than in other types of films.
Even though the people at Daxu Culture had a lot of confidence in 'Mr. Spiritual Illusion', they still had a lot of worries.
The fact that those zombie movies that collapsed a couple of days ago proves just how fierce the competition is.
Of the many films released in the first batch, only three made a splash, while the rest were destined to fail...
Fortunately, with the release of the first day's box office figures, all of everyone's worries disappeared.
That's right!
The competition was indeed fierce, but Daxu Culture is Daxu Culture; it rises to the challenge and achieves a box office of 107 million yuan on its opening day, dominating the entire market.
Everyone at Daxu Culture felt proud of this, and the company group chat was already buzzing with excitement.
"Unbelievably, our company has grown to this extent without us even realizing it!"
"I was quite worried before that I couldn't compete with others, but it turns out I was overthinking it and there was nothing to worry about at all."
"Hahaha, the number one box office yesterday was just over 70 million, and the number two was less than 70 million."
But as soon as our Mr. Vampire was released, it raked in hundreds of millions at the box office. It's really amazing..."
"To be honest, I've watched a few zombie movies, but I still think the ones made by Da Xu are the best."
...
"It looks like our DaXu Culture will have another major genre after science fiction films, namely zombie films!"
"Yes, in the field of science fiction films, we are unrivaled. There is no one in the film and television industry who can compete with us right now."
Looking at the current situation, it seems that no one in the zombie movie genre can pose a threat to us!
"President Xu is truly amazing. He casually took control of two independent tracks. Who can compare?"
"But this is what our Daxu culture deserves."
After all, the sci-fi film market was already sluggish before this, and zombie films were practically nonexistent...
...
Similarly, those in the industry who learned of the news were quite surprised.
This was originally within everyone's predictions.
With so many competitors this time, Daxu Culture certainly won't be as comfortable as before.
But in reality, the influx of competitors doesn't seem to have had much impact on Daxu Culture.
The last film, 'Mr. Vampire,' only grossed a little over 60 million on its opening day.
But it still managed to gross nearly a billion yuan at the box office.
With so many competitors, it was unexpected that 'Mr. Vampire' would have a higher opening day box office.
It's like Daxu Culture is standing on the second level.
Meanwhile, the competitors who entered were engaged in fierce fighting on the first floor, resulting in countless deaths and injuries.
But no matter how fiercely they fought each other, it did not harm the Daxu culture on the second level.
Those in the industry were completely baffled after seeing it.
"This is too bizarre. Logically speaking, with so many competitors, how could Daxu Culture possibly remain unscathed?"
"Exactly, everyone else went on a killing spree, but Daxu Culture was completely unharmed."
"Daxu Culture's dominance at the box office is truly terrifying. Who in the same genre can rival them?"
"As expected of the pioneer who created the new genre of zombie movies, the second film still stands out from the crowd, truly impressive!"
...
"It seems this new zombie movie isn't so easy to make; so many movies have flopped."
"That's right! Of the dozen or so films released in the last few days, only a few will actually make money."
Moreover, each of these films was produced by a major company and directed by a renowned director; many more failed to even reach their release date.
"Is it possible that others haven't yet grasped the essence of this type of game?"
Otherwise, how could Da Xu Culture produce such a hit series? I think there must be some secret that others don't know.
"This...it really is possible. This issue is indeed worth studying carefully."
However, given how many films have flopped, and Da Xu Culture has produced two hits in a row, it's likely that some people are already investigating this issue.
...
As insiders have said.
After seeing the box office success of Daxu Culture's "Mr. Ghost," those production companies that had flopped at the box office did indeed begin to "review" their performance.
Inside a film company, a heated discussion was taking place in the conference room:
"Director, neither of Daxu Culture's two films are primarily horror-themed."
There are even a lot of funny elements in it, which I think is a highlight.
"Yes, many of the zombie movies currently showing are just pure horror films, so their audience is much smaller."
However, Da Xu Culture's combination of horror and humor immediately broadened its audience.
"Don't you guys think that the use of Taoist magic in Mr. Zombie and Mr. Phantom from Da Xu Culture is also quite exciting?"
