778. Box office on the first day
The first day of "King Kong"'s massive release.
Chen Shaojun can be said to be the most uneasy one.
There was no way, he couldn't help but be nervous.
Even if the media has a good reputation, even if the film critics give high praise, even if the preview is very good.
However, it is not to say that the film with good reputation and high ratings have never been released on a large scale, but has ushered in Waterloo.
So, as long as the result is not revealed, it is impossible for him to be nervous.
However, Wang Yifan actually felt that there was no need to worry so much in "King Kong".
"You are the mystery of the authorities!" Wang Yifan couldn't help but smile.
Chen Shaojun said angrily: "What about you, the bystander? Is it clear?"
"The box office of King Kong actually has signs of it, but you only pay attention to the box office, but you just ignore it." Wang Yifan said with a smile.
"There were signs long ago? Are you referring to?" Chen Shaojun was a little confused.
Actually, he can't be blamed. Logically speaking, this is not the first time Chen Shaojun has made a movie, but in fact, the big production like "King Kong" is indeed very different from the movies he directed before.
Large production, high risk and high return.
Everyone knows this. In fact, don’t watch those low-cost movies, the return on investment is as much as possible, but give a simple example.
Ten times or twenty times of one million are just tens of millions.
But if the big production is calculated at 100 million, then even if the return is doubled, it will be 100 million.
Of course, even if a small-budget movie fails, it will only be a few million.
But once a big production fails, it will be a loss of hundreds of millions.
This is also the reason why Chen Shaojun is so nervous, because even if he loses the previous movies, he actually doesn’t have much pressure.
But this time, it’s different. Once you lose, the blow to his confidence will be extremely huge.
"You also see how popular the topic of King Kong is now. Although there are some controversies, this just highlights that King Kong is just hot, and the number of topics in the entertainment industry is often proportional to the box office. I think such a large scale of discussions and controversy is enough to win the box office championship this week. Moreover, there were no opponents worth paying attention to during the same period." Wang Yifan said.
"This..." Chen Shaojun nodded, but he still couldn't relieve his nervousness.
However, it relieved him a little.
"You can go and see those movie reviews more, maybe you won't be so nervous." Wang Yifan saw that Chen Shaojun still had not relieved his nervousness, shook his head and suggested.
"Okay!" Chen Shaojun nodded as well.
In fact, the news from Ouyang Ming to the occasional news that "King Kong" was released on Huaxin Theater is very optimistic.
Although the theaters cannot give exact box office data before the movie box office is counted.
After all, although there are real-time box office statistics these days, they are divided into different theaters. In addition, various reasons, the real-time box office statistics are not accurate.
For example, Huaxin Cinema can only count the box office output of Huaxin Cinema at most.
Of course, it is naturally not just people who pay attention to the box office of "King Kong" that are Chen Shaojun, or Wang Yifan and Lin Husheng.
The outside world actually pays great attention to this movie.
Nothing else, "King Kong" can be said to be the first domestic monster movie in China in the true sense!
You read that right, it's the first one!
In fact, the box office market in China has always been very strange. Although movies sold in Hollywood are likely to be sold in China, they are not absolute.
Like monster movies.
Previously, Matsumoto Universal adapted a monster movie based on an anime work from the island country.
However, because that monster is the gene of the island country, it can be said that it encountered Waterloo in North America.
But it has achieved very good results in China.
Similarly, there are Hollywood monster movies that have achieved great results in North America, but they are not good at this side of China!
Now the film market in China is the second largest film market in the world.
Second only to North America, it has long surpassed the island country.
However, with the rise of the market, the audience also watched all movies from the beginning and gradually had higher requirements for movies.
There are countless examples of bad movies selling well in the past, but this has rarely happened in recent years.
After all, the audience is not fools. They become good doctors after a long illness. After watching too many bad movies, they will also begin to learn to distinguish. They will not follow the crowd, but will have their own judgment.
So, this leads to better sales of fine movies, while on the other hand, even bad movies can be miserable even if they are big productions.
No matter how many publicity stunts are, no matter how well the publicity is done, the movie is ugly, it is ugly!
However, movies are just about those types, and for risk reasons, few people dare to invest big money in some innovative big productions.
Because innovation means adventure.
So, "King Kong" is definitely taking risks to some extent.
Just kidding, 100 million US dollars, plus promotion and promotion, at least 1 billion Chinese coins, such a big production is actually a monster movie, which is why many people were not optimistic about it before.
But it does not mean that they do not pay attention to "King Kong".
After all, Monster Movies, this type, are actually very good investment directions, but the question is whether it can be accepted by the audience, or how high is the audience's acceptance of such domestic movies?
"King Kong" is undoubtedly the best touchstone!
If "King Kong" has achieved great success, then it is conceivable that other giants will definitely rush over.
Because a new category of development means new profit growth points.
The audience will certainly feel tired when watching a type of movie. Therefore, if new movies can be accepted by the audience, at least in the short term, such movies will not cause the audience to feel aesthetic fatigue.
Back to the topic, go back to the box office of "King Kong".
12:50 am.
The China Film Box Office Data Network updated the national box office data statistics report for the day.
In fact, a few minutes ago, Chen Shaojun had his eyes red and kept refreshing the China Film Box Office Data Network.
Finally, it's updated.
When Chen Shaojun saw the box office data of his movie "King Kong" at the top of the list, he finally couldn't help laughing.
There is no way. He needs to vent his pressure after being suppressed for so long and endured for so long.
Although Wang Yifan had long predicted that the box office of "King Kong" would not be bad, he looked surprised when he saw the box office data.
Not too low, but exceeded his expectations.
"King Kong" scheduled 48% of the first day, and its daily box office closed at 180 million!
Yes 180 million!
This number is no wonder Chen Shaojun laughed.
In fact, according to Wang Yifan's prediction, the box office of "King Kong" on the first day could reach about 130 million, but the result was so much higher than his prediction, which was really beyond his expectations.
Chapter completed!
