Chapter 367 Is there any justice in the world?
There is really no suspense.
The first place is "Return of the Dragon", with a box office of 180 million on the first day.
The second place is "Meteor", with a box office of 190 million on the first day.
The third place is "Let the Bullets Fly", with a box office of 140 million on the first day.
…
If we look at it individually, then "Let the Bullets Fly" definitely loses.
But let’s take a look at the film schedule again.
Because the movie "Return of the Dragon" is a sequel, it already has box office guarantees. Coupled with Pang Yunfei's personal brand and the full promotion of the distribution company behind it, it can be said that the movie's first-day screenings were as high as 35, which is really quite strong.
Then there is the second place "Flow", although its screenings are not as good as "The Return of the Dragon", it still has 25 screenings.
As for "Let the Bullets Fly", it received 18 screenings.
Let me put it this way, if "Let the Bullets Fly" had not received such an excellent reputation from the preview, the number of screenings of "Let the Bullets Fly" would probably not exceed 10.
Now, "Let the Bullets Fly" has been scheduled for 18 screenings.
At this time, if "Let the Bullets Fly" gets 18 screenings, it will basically cannibalize the screenings of others.
Think about it, the three movies "Let the Bullets Fly", "Return of the Dragon" and "Meteor" together occupy 78% of the screening time, and the remaining 22% of the screening time is competed for by almost 9 movies.
What else are you saying if other movies are not cannon fodder? ?
Among them, a movie of a similar genre to "Let the Bullets Fly" is so depressing that it almost makes people commit suicide.
This movie is called "The Swordsman". It is more of a costume love drama than a costume drama.
It was predicted before that the box office of this movie would be around 300 million.
Because "The Swordsman" participated in the film festival last year and received unanimous praise from film critics.
Originally, there should be 18 screenings of "The Swordsman" in the schedule, but as it turned out, because of the overwhelming reputation of "Let the Bullets Fly", this screening schedule almost cannibalized the schedule of "The Swordsman".
This is the most painful part of "The Swordsman".
Originally, this movie could have been a miracle, but due to the strong rise of "Let the Bullets Fly", the movie was only able to get 8 screenings in the end.
However, the first-day box office of "The Swordsman" was almost 5 million.
This schedule and the box office are actually relatively good.
Perhaps "The Swordsman" will add more screenings in the future.
But there wasn't much of a rebound.
Again, if there was no movie "Let the Bullets Fly", then I'm afraid this movie would still have some chance no matter what. Not to mention how good the box office would be, it might really have a chance of breaking 100 million.
Now.
Don’t even mention 300 million.
Industry insiders who watched the first-day screening schedule felt that the final box office of this movie would probably be less than 20 million.
Come to think of it, "The Swordsman" isn't even worth the money for promotion.
The promotion of this movie cost almost 30 million.
Originally wanted to make a big splash during the National Day holiday, but ended up being a complete failure.
After the first day's box office figures came out, some media had already started reporting on it.
Among the three movies "Return of the Dragon", "Meteor" and "Let the Bullets Fly", "Return of the Dragon" has the highest box office, but its attendance rate is obviously not good, and its reputation is not good either.
Needless to say, the reputation of "Meteor" has collapsed. The box office on the first day was also good, but with the collapse of word of mouth, the attendance rate on the second day will probably be affected.
In comparison, only the movie "Let the Bullets Fly" seems normal. Although it has the third highest screening schedule, its single-day box office has exceeded 100 million yuan. Not only that, the reputation of this movie is also explosive.
So everyone made a prediction that the box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" will probably surpass that of other films next.
No, it shouldn't.
We will definitely be able to overtake others.
The number of screenings of "Let the Bullets Fly" increased from 18 on the first day to 23, and then from 23 to 35.
That is, on the fourth day, "Let the Bullets Fly" not only surpassed the single-day box office, but also far surpassed "Return of the Dragon" and "Meteor".
The single-day box office reached 280 million.
On the first day of its release, the box office grossed 140 million yuan.
The next day, the single-day box office reached 160 million.
On the third day, the single-day box office reached 190 million yuan.
On the fourth day, the single-day box office reached 280 million.
In four days, the total box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" during the National Day holiday reached 770 million yuan, which has exceeded the box office of this movie on Earth. In the original time and space, the box office of this movie was actually only more than 600 million yuan, but at that time the box office had not yet exploded. Otherwise, if it was released later, it would have reached at least 2 billion yuan.
Now "Let the Bullets Fly" has reached 770 million yuan, plus the 100 million yuan from the preview, "Let the Bullets Fly" has now reached 880 million yuan.
Without any surprises, "Let the Bullets Fly" will reach 1 billion tomorrow.
1 billion.
Yes.
This is a number that many people think Yu Xiaoshu is inflated, and this is a number that many people think Yu Xiaoshu is crazy, but "Let the Bullets Fly" just took 5 days to reach it during the National Day holiday.
On October 5, at 12 noon, many people were refreshing the real-time box office.
Su Qing was also checking the real-time box office.
For Su Qing, the fact that Yu Xiaoshu's debut movie could reach 1 billion, and that it did so in just 5 days, was something he himself had never expected.
It’s over.
When the last refresh was completed, Su Qing looked at the numbers and laughed.
Just as expected.
Although he knew that the movie would break 1 billion, Su Qing still found it hard to believe when the number appeared.
This time, Su Qing's father Su Dong didn't say anything more. With such a box office situation, what else could Su Dong say?
He has to save face too.
Besides, Li Qing, the deputy director of "Let the Bullets Fly", is Su Dong's student. Students are always better than their teachers.
Do you think Su Dong has no face?
Su Qing feels that he has said enough about the film review of "Let the Bullets Fly", and Su Qing has comprehensively sorted out many film reviews of "Let the Bullets Fly".
This is because Su Qing also watched "Let the Bullets Fly" three times. Only after watching it could she deeply feel Yu Xiaoyang's powerful skills.
In any case, Su Qing believes that with the box office performance of "Let the Bullets Fly", no one will mock Yu Xiaoshu anymore.
What qualifications do people in the film industry have to say that Yu Xiaoshu is making outrageous remarks?
Both the movies "Return of the Dragon" and "Meteor" were defeated by "Let the Bullets Fly".
And today, "Let the Bullets Fly" became the fastest movie to break 1 billion.
During the National Day holiday, "Let the Bullets Fly" is really going to be the biggest winner.
That's right.
The biggest winner.
At first, many people thought that "Let the Bullets Fly" would just launch a satellite, but who would have thought that this was not just launching a satellite, but directly shooting it down.
Various media also reported on it later.
The Film News said: "'Let the Bullets Fly' became the fastest movie to break 1 billion during the National Day holiday. At the same time, this movie set several records. This is the first movie whose directorial debut broke 1 billion so quickly. This is the only screenwriter who successfully switched from a web drama to a movie..."
Not only the Film News, but several other newspapers also analyzed Let the Bullets Fly.
Why is this movie successful?
Some people think that it is the credit of the two movie emperors Ning Fan and Guo Zeqiang.
In this regard, everyone thinks stop joking, look at the next door "Flying Dragon Returns" is there not many best actor? ?
There are even two Best Actresses for "Here Comes the Dragon".
What is the result? ?
Wasn’t it defeated by “Let the Bullets Fly”? ?
Today, not only the news that "Let the Bullets Fly" broke 1 billion yuan was all over the screen, but there was also another thing that Douhu opened the rating system.
"Let the Bullets Fly" ranked first with 8.9 points.
As for "Meteor", its Douhu score is only 6 points, which is considered excellent, but it is far from Zhao Yunzhan's previous works.
It can be said that Zhao Yunzhan’s "Meteor" was not a box office flop. After all, it still had a box office of nearly 400 million in 5 days after its release, which is quite good for an idol movie.
But compared to the publicity and production costs of "Meteor," according to the initial box office forecast, this is actually a flop.
However, Zhao Yunzhan was not too disappointed.
If his reputation collapses, it proves that he has taken the wrong path. In that case, then he should take the right next step.
So Zhao Yunzhan didn’t think there was anything wrong.
Besides, "Meteor" did not flop at the box office.
The production cost of idol dramas is not high.
So after rounding off, "Meteor" is the champion of the National Day holiday.
On the other side, Pang Yunfei was a little angry.
He wanted to go further with "The Return of the Dragon", and Pang Yunfei thought that he was the best candidate during this National Day holiday.
result.
I never thought of that.
Yu Xiaoshu simply took advantage of the situation.
So angry.
The current box office of "Here Comes the Dragon" is not small, having reached 700 million, but the National Day holiday will end in 2 days. At present, it is impossible for it to break 1 billion during the National Day holiday.
Originally, the box office website of "The Return of the Dragon" predicted that the movie would have a box office of 3 billion yuan, but now, the total box office forecast is 1.2 billion yuan.
A full 1.8 billion less.
1.8 billion.
Damn it.
Pang Yunfei believes that the failure of this movie is mainly due to "Let the Bullets Fly".
He is different from Zhao Yunzhan. Zhao Yunzhan thinks that his skills are not as good as others, and he will correct it next time. What's more, Zhao Yunzhan really thinks that "Let the Bullets Fly" is good, and he is even prepared to have a good chat with Du Fei.
But Pang Yunfei on the other side was different.
As for Yu Pang Yunfei, he thinks that "Let the Bullets Fly" is a work that is just for the sake of sensationalism, and all the so-called analyses of this movie are nonsense.
Another thing is that there are so-called swear words everywhere in the movie.
Not to mention the film's illogicality.
How could Liuzi die just like that?
How could the lawyer at the beginning dare to kiss County Magistrate Ma’s wife?
Is this 8-year-old son of Mabond acting crazy?
Since Huang Silang recognized Zhang Mazi, why didn't he kill him?
Not to mention why the master appeared again in the end? ?
Metaphor, metaphor, egg.
This is just because the script is not solid and the script is not good.
So Pang Yunfei said in an interview: "Movies are meant to be understood by people. If a movie needs all kinds of metaphors to be understood, then it is definitely not a qualified movie. I don't like so-called hype. I just like to make solid movies. I don't think "The Return of the Dragon" is a failure. On the contrary, I think this movie is really successful..."
This is Pang Yunfei.
In this respect, Pang Yunfei's personality is actually similar to Su Dong's.
They all refuse to admit their mistakes.
Or rather, they are all quite stubborn.
In such a situation, the media of course reported the story differently.
At this time, Baiqian Media had already begun preparing for the celebration banquet.
The box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" has exceeded 1 billion yuan. The small goal has been achieved, but there is no need to hold a celebration party.
Zhang Haotian also came to find Yu Xiaoshu.
In this round, Zhang Haotian bet on the right thing.
He was now extremely glad that he stood on Yu Xiaoshu's side. If he had really had the same idea as others, he would definitely not have even watched "Let the Bullets Fly".
It's ok now.
Others, however, gave a "no" rating because of their first reaction without even watching "Let the Bullets Fly".
Only Zhang Haotian listened to Judy's advice and thought that "Let the Bullets Fly" was worth watching. What a guy, he thought it was really good after taking one look at it.
"Teacher Yu, I think we can schedule our celebration party on October 8th, is that okay? After all, the seven-day National Day holiday is over and it will be workdays, so the box office will definitely drop significantly, so we can take advantage of the opportunity to promote it."
Zhang Haotian suggested to Yu Xiaoshu.
"Yes, sure. You can arrange the venue and time for the celebration banquet, and I will arrange the personnel here."
Yu Xiaoshu nodded slightly and said.
"Okay, no problem."
Zhang Haotian was waiting for Yu Xiaoshu to say this.
Next, during the remaining two days of the National Day holiday, the single-day box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" actually exceeded 300 million on the last day, which once again shocked the industry.
Is there any fucking justice?
Many people really don’t know what to say when looking at the box office.
During the National Day holiday, no one expected that "Let the Bullets Fly" would rake in 1.5 billion yuan almost like robbing money.
Whether in terms of word of mouth or box office, "Let the Bullets Fly" is an absolute winner.
At the same time, "Let the Bullets Fly" is also the only movie that broke 1 billion during the National Day holiday.
Both the highly anticipated films "Return of the Dragon" and "Meteor" suffered Waterloo, especially "Return of the Dragon", which had an investment of 300 million yuan, but it did not even make 1 billion yuan during the National Day holiday.
Biggest loser: Return of the Dragon.
Biggest winner: Let the Bullets Fly.
Make a fortune in silence: "Meteor".
The others are all cannon fodder.
At noon on October 8, Douhu posted some data about the box office of several movies during the National Day holiday.
Who wouldn’t say it’s awesome after watching it???
…

PS: The new book "Entertainment: I Just Play" will be on the shelves around 12:30 noon tomorrow. I hope everyone will vote for this book with monthly tickets and give it a first order. At that time, I still have to rely on my family for help at the critical moment, so I ask everyone to support me when the time comes.
