0369 [Break 6 almost]
On July 20, even though Santa Monica was a resort, the local temperature still soared to 35 degrees Celsius. Sasha Entertainment's brand new ten-story office building is located not far from the coastal beach, only five minutes away from Wan Xiaohu's villa.
At this time, Wan Xiaohu was in the company's editing room, doing the final editing work of "Inception".
From the morning, I was busy until noon, before dinner, Wan Xiaohu finally burned the final masterbatch copy and handed it over to the producer to take it to the Dragon Hero next door for special effects production. Today, the Dragon Hero has been spending money on Wan Xiaohu to upgrade the poaching plan and has become a large special effects company.
Although the returns are not very good, the technology has accumulated very well.
Moreover, the Dragon Hero has a new plan to swallow up the special effects giant digital-domain (digital field) company that has been losing money in recent years.
Because during the filming of "Inception", the Dragon King Digital Painting Company participated in the entire process, the later special effects production did not require Wan Xiaohu to coordinate, but could also be carried out. In other words, the busy Wan Xiaohu really spared his spare time. For this reason, Wan Xiaohu made a trip plan.
Spend half a year to accompany your women and children to travel around the world.
"tiger, are you planning to leave now? The company still has many things that you need to make decisions." Adam Ferguson did not agree with Wan Xiaohu's plan at all. Now is the moment when Sasha Entertainment is attacking the big studio. As the big boss, Wan Xiaohu should focus all his energy on the company.
"Adam, don't stop me. The company's team is very strong now, and you can do better. And I started making movies since I was 20 years old. I hardly really gave myself a holiday. Now my children are one or two years old, and it is necessary to be dads, spending their childhood with them."
"How long do you need to rest?" Adam Ferguson asked helplessly.
Wan Xiaohu shook his head: "It depends on the situation. It's so tiring to have thirteen movies in nine years. But it's not ruled out that the sudden inspiration was coming, so the holiday was interrupted and the filming continued."
After handing over the work of "Inception" and the production work of several movies, Wan Xiaohu first took Jessica Alba and Wan Juanjuan to vacation in Hawaii. As a rich man, Wan Xiaohu not only rented an island in Hawaii, but also towed his own yacht, driving a yacht to the sea to fish for sharks every day.
He is in Xiaoyao. The release of "Time Planning Bureau" is endless.
Three days from July 17 to 19, "Harry Potter and the Mixed Race Prince" came strongly, winning 73.83 million US dollars indisputable, becoming the champion of the weekend's box office. Under its powerful box office money-making trend, the "Time Planning Bureau" with a reputation that has been very popular has also delivered its own answer amid the concerns of many people.
"The next weekend, US$37.3 million, the "Time Planning Bureau" seized food from the tiger's mouth. The performance was perfect!" - film movie website.
"Under the pressure of $260 million in cost blockbusters, the $20 million in low-cost Chinese films were not crushed, but relying on good reputation, the decline was less than 37%. As of the end of this weekend, the Time Planning Bureau has won $126.3 million in North America in ten days." - Comment on the website of Tiejo.
North American tiger's food was successfully captured, with a total of US$126.3 million in ten days, far exceeding the experts' predictions. After all, in terms of theaters and fan base, "Time Planning Bureau" cannot be compared with the popular Harry Potter. This is based on hundreds of millions of book fans around the world, and has already made the sixth big investment blockbuster.
Therefore, in the market outside North America, as long as the votes released by "Harry Potter and the Mixed Race Prince" are all given up the title, and the box office is actually not much, but compared with the highlights of the Mixed Race Prince, it is really much low-key.
The only thing that is not low-key is Wan Xiaohu’s home court, mainland China.
"Harry Potter and the Mixed Race Prince" has received the most theaters in ticket stores around the world, but in mainland China, the number of screenings is only half of "Time Planning Bureau", and there are not many readers of Western best-selling novels like "Harry Potter" in China, but they have suffered a complete defeat.
mtime Time Network is still an exciting red-letter slaughter version.
"The movie viewing frenzy of "Time Planning Bureau" has not yet subsided, setting the best record for the box office in the mainland in a single week and it is also the first movie with a box office of over 200 million yuan in a single week. The total box office of 10 days is 369.95 million yuan, announcing Wan Xiaohu is the unquestionable box office king in China!"
"'Harry Potter' China was cold, with RMB 42 million on the first five days, which was a serious shrinkage compared with the expected 80 million box office. The publisher Warner Bros. said that the schedule arranged by China Film Group is not very good, and it is worth avoiding Wan Xiaohu's movies. Blockbuster collisions are not a good phenomenon."
"Hollywood blockbusters in China are cold, and Wan Xiaohu teaches Harry Potter how to be a person in minutes - Mtime Time Network's special guest Bai Jingjie commented on the box office this week."
"The birth of a new Chinese superstar, Huang Xiaoming and Liu Yifei's foreign propaganda, and foreign fans gathered!"
"Ten years are like a moment, but what remains unchanged is the sincerity of being a director. The exclusive secret analysis of Wan Xiaohu's Chinese blockbusters is all in this issue of "Time Network Viewpoint" column."
"In ten days of global release, the Time Planning Bureau has accumulated a global box office of US$378 million."
...
From July 24th to 26th, it is another three days of weekends in North America, and it is another good time for Westerners to watch movies. In Western countries such as North America, although movies are released seven days a week, the number of viewers in the first four days of the weekdays is very small. After the holiday starts on Friday afternoon, it is the real time to watch movies.
Three new films are released this week, namely Disney's cartoon "Guizu Pigs", the romantic comedy "Ugly Truth" released by Columbia, and the horror film "Orphan Resentment" released by Warner Bros.
Last week's champion "Harry Potter and the Mixed Race Prince" completed its diving journey with a 62.1% drop, and only won 28.46 million US dollars, ranking second in the box office list. This kind of blockbuster that doesn't care about word of mouth but consumes fans. Usually, it's enough to make a fortune in one week, and the decline is reasonable.
"Guizi Agents" calmly won the championship with $30.7 million. "Ugly Truth" squeezed into third place. "Orphan Resentment" rushed to fifth place with $12.87 million.
"Time Planning Bureau" directed by Wan Xiaohu has dropped two more places, ranking fourth with US$21 million. In the past three weeks, the box office in North America has accumulated 171.3 million US dollars. It is no problem to break 220 million.
This is true. After the three-month release period ended, "Time Planning Bureau" rushed to the ninth place in the North American annual box office list with US$223 million, becoming the third highest-grossing movie in North America after "Kung Fu Panda" and "Rise of the Planet of the Apes".
At the same time, this is also the highest box office record of Chinese-language films in North America, and it is also the best box office record of foreign-language films in North America. Previously, this record has been maintained by Wan Xiaohu's "Wanted Order".
...
In mainland China, the Time Planning Bureau is even more powerful.
In the third week, it won the championship again with RMB 112.8 million. It accumulated a box office of RMB 482.75 million, directly breaking the record of "Kung Fu Panda" by RMB 421.9 million.
"Break 5!"
"Break 5!"
Countless movie fans and fans shouted this domineering slogan, maybe there was no need to shout it at all. According to this momentum, Huang Xiaoming, who returned to China to promote the public again, shouted higher requirements at a promotional event: "If I can break 6, I will take all the photos immediately~nude photos!"
One of his female fans was so excited that they fainted. Then more fans said that even if they booked the venue, they would make the Time Planning Bureau exceed 600 million yuan!
Liu Yifei was also encouraged by the host and shouted on the spot: "If I can break 6, I will not wash my hair for a month!"
Then it attracted the attention of fans. What kind of reward is this? However, there are still many fans with heavy tastes. They said that they fought hard to see the sloppy look of the fairy sister!
Several other starring actors, Gao Yuanyuan, Huang Bo, Lin Zhiying and Wu Zhenyu, also promised that after breaking 6, there would be benefits for fans.
Then Wan Xiaohu, who was enjoying the holiday, also recorded a VCR. In the VCR, Wan Xiaohu laughed and said, "Well, if you can break 6, you will start the sequels of three movies, "Wanted Order", "Never End" and "Time Planning Bureau".
Well, in fact, these are all things within the plans of Sasha Entertainment and Jiahe Entertainment. These blockbuster movies are too wasteful to open sequels. It’s just that because there are too many investment projects in recent years, I have to drag them all over the place and there is no creation of sequels. This has caused many fans to complain.
In order to break 6, sequels, and rewards, fans really fought hard, repeatedly entering the venue to win tickets, and also adopted some form of booking. Just as "Never End" desperately broke the record of "Titanic", the publisher Jiahe Entertainment also frequently made moves, giving away autographs to watch movies, winning big prizes, etc.
In the fourth week, the Time Planning Bureau once again won 55 million yuan, with a total of 537.75 million yuan, successfully exceeding 500 million yuan. In the fifth week, it dropped another 28.05 million yuan, with a total of 565.8 million yuan. In the sixth week, it was 10.5 million yuan, with a total of 573.6 million yuan.
The seventh week was RMB 6.7 million, the eighth week was RMB 5.1 million, and the ninth week was RMB 3.5 million. The two-month release period has passed, with a total of RMB 591.6 million.
"The last 9.4 million, brothers are so proud!"
"I've tried it. For the nude photos of the leader (Huang Xiaoming), I booked the cinema in front of my house today! The address is xxx, if you are willing to come, please see it!"
"The three sequels I've been waiting for for a long time must not be ruined! Brothers and sisters, take action when it's time!"
"Go ahead! For the elegant hair of my little bun (Liu Yifei)!"
On mtime Time, movie enthusiasts encouraged each other and cheered each other. On the scarf, Yaya and QQ, they were all messages from movie fans, just to achieve the great cause of breaking 6!
Because the box office trend has come to an end, Jiahe Entertainment's application for release was postponed, and the radio and television only approved it for two more weeks. After all, it is the final stage of the summer season, and there are still a lot of blockbusters waiting to be released. Moreover, "The Founding of a Country" produced by China Film will also be released during this period. You can no longer take care of it in the screening schedule, and it will cause public anger.
Whether it is a failure or hard work pays off, it depends on the next two weeks.
