0394 [Return to Overlord]

Wan Xiaohu took his wife and children to watch the cartoon "Sami Adventure" during National Day.

The "Grain" directed by himself will also be launched in the mainland on the National Day holiday on October 1st to participate in the competition for the National Day holiday. Although the reputation of "Grain" has been very popular in the early stage, although the space under 3D lenses are beautiful, and although the plot of the movie is simple, it is "gaochao" one after another, but as a science fiction film with only two actors, Sasha Entertainment still chooses to be conservative.

Withdraw from this year's summer vacation, which is filled with smoke.

After all, the competition for this summer is too fierce, and many blockbusters are competing for the past few months.

The highlight of the Marvel Cinematic Universe Project, "Avengers" released by Sasha Entertainment; Warner Bros.'s masterpiece in superhero movies, the third part of the Batman trilogy, "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises"; Sony Columbia's first part of the reboot of Spider-Man series, "Amazing Spider-Man".

There are also several powerful cartoons such as "Legend of Brave", "Madagascar 3", "Ice Age 4", as well as blockbusters such as "Man in Black 3", "Snow White and the Hunter" that have attracted much attention from the beginning.

Unlike science fiction films, these movies target the market for summer audiences, and the same is true for the production tastes.

In such an environment, it is absolutely difficult to grab the box office, so changing the schedule and being released in the off-season of the film market is a very good idea. In recent years, the movies directed by Wan Xiaohu, especially science fiction films, are basically released in the off-season, relying on word of mouth to create miracles, rather than fighting the summer season.

As long as the movie is of high quality, it will explode even in the off-season.

So, "Gravity" participated in the National Day holiday in the mainland this year. With the expansion of the Chinese film market, it has more than 13,000 screens this year, and the market is enough to accommodate several movies. So even with the reputation of Wan Xiaohu, there are still a large number of domestic films and co-productions to seize the National Day holiday.

"It's just a Hollywood science fiction film. Even if the director is Wan Xiaohu, it's nothing great in the Chinese market." This is what many publishers say.

There was no movie Wan Xiaohu released in 2011, and these publishers have gradually forgotten the majesty of Wan Xiaohu back then.

So this National Day holiday, blockbusters began to fight in close combat.

Zhou Runfa was released on the 26th, Liu Yifei and Su Youpeng starred in "Bronze Terrace", Leung Ka Fai, Anglebaby, Peng Yuyan, Feng Shaofeng, Shu Qi, and Daniel Wu, "Tai Chi 1: Starting from Scratch" starring Zhang Ziyi, Zhang Dongjian and Cecilia Cheung, and "Dangerous Relationship" starring Zhang Ziyi, Zhang Dongjian and Cecilia Cheung, the Hollywood small-budget science fiction film "Ring Messenger" starring Chinese actress Xu Qing on the 28th, Fan Bingbing was released on the 29th, and Feng Shaofeng starred in "Two Exposures".

In addition, "Gravity" released on October 1st, six blockbusters compete on the same stage in six days. It can be regarded as the most popular battle since the four famous directors Zhang Yimou, Liu Weiqiang, Tsui Hark and John Woo during the National Day holiday in 2010.

Many media have begun to hype this war, and I don’t know if it has been charged with money. Many media have begun to hype domestic films and co-production of Chinese films, claiming to be a group of dragons and tigers to fight against Hollywood. This tiger and this Hollywood naturally refer to Wan Xiaohu.

Some media, such as Southern Metropolis Daily, even announced that Wan Xiaohu's Battle of Waterloo was coming. They gave several examples.

There is no luxury cast, although the male protagonist Leonardo has a large number of fans. The female protagonist Sandra won the Oscar for Best Actress two years ago, but there are only two people. Most of the second half is completed by Sandra alone.

There are no large scenes of serial explosions, the special effects shots in space are indeed very handsome, and the broken space station is also very eye-catching, but all the scenes are in space, without the explosion effect on the earth, and without the unpredictable background.

Without the help of Chinese celebrities, without enjoying good schedules alone, and even publicity can only rely on other people's evaluations, and it is impossible for actors to frequently appear on the show and interact with movie fans...

Many reasons have made Southern Metropolis Daily judge that "Georgement" will surely be Waterloo, Wan Xiaohu's myth will end, and the best result will be evaluated as "who is so popular but not popular".

...

To be honest, what "Southern Metropolis Daily" is saying is quite reasonable. There are too many movies that are not popular. The style of "Gravity" is too strong, and there is a trend of development in this direction.

"This year's National Day holiday is a bit dangerous, with many blockbusters." In the cinema, Su Ya also said to Wan Xiaohu with some concern.

"Sami Adventure" has not started yet, and the trailer for "Dangerous Relationship" is being screened. Wan Chengyang is having a lot of fun holding popcorn, so Su Ya and Wan Xiaohu have a chat.

Wan Xiaohu made an indifferent expression and said, "There is nothing to care about. "Grain" has such a good reputation. It is staggered in the summer season, and no movie is the opponent. Moreover, the audience is not very similar. "Grain" is a science fiction film. When you watch these movies, they are either romance films or costume films, and the audience does not overlap at all."

"But there are too many film schedules that have been divided. I don't know what these publishers think, and they have to compete with you. Because I am afraid that others will say that we are monopolizing with Jiahe Entertainment, this time, the screening of "George" was not very good, and only got 38% of the first day. This is your lowest number of films on the premiere in recent years."

"Oh, my wife, your idea is too terrible. Even 38% of "Gravity" is still the most screened films during the National Day holiday. You can watch "Bongquetai" and "Tai Chi 1: Starting from Stop", which are both 20% of them. You have to give others some soup. Anyway, I don't care much about the box office now. If you get an extra 100 million or less, it's OK."

Wan Xiaohu adjusted his comfortable position, hugged Su Ya's waist, and walked upwards unhonestly along the hem of his clothes: "To be honest, I hope that there will be several good movies in China to defeat "Gravity"."

"It's hard, judging from your confident look, I know they have no chance."

"That's not necessarily the case. If "Gravity" is scheduled to the end of the year, to be honest, there is a movie that can really overturn me. This year, Jiahe invested in "Lost in Thailand" filmed by Xu Zheng, and "The Twelve Zodiacs" written by Cheng Long, and I am optimistic about the explosiveness of these two movies at the box office."

"Lost in Thailand is also optimistic? The investment is quite small."

"You don't understand. I like Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, and Wang Baoqiang. I admire these three people who are domestic comedy actors. Among the directors, I admire Ning Hao, who is talented and has ideas, and polish it to become the mainstay of Chinese comedy films."

Previous track. Wan Xiaohu likes the director Ning Hao very much, especially his filming "Crazy Stone". It is undeniable that "Crazy Stone" imitates "Two Big Smoke Bowls", which has a heavy trace, but at least it completes a good story of combining local and foreign countries.

The most important thing for the director is to tell good stories. Ning Hao obviously knows how to tell stories. Although "Crazy Racing", "Golden Robbery" and "No Man's Land" have not achieved the sensational effect as "Crazy Stone". But in these movies, Ning Hao's grasp of the camera and rhythm is obviously getting better and better.

He is just a director in his thirties and still has a long directorial journey in the future.

If you persist in doing it, you may not be able to surpass Zhang Yimo and Feng Xiaogang. Become a leading figure in Chinese directors.

"Young directors are the hope of Chinese movies. You should give young people a chance!" Wan Xiaohu pretended to be emotional, playing with his wife's delicate body. He was not interested in the average cartoon "Sami Adventure". He just came to accompany his wife and son.

Su Ya wanted to kill Wan Xiaohu's dirty hands, but she was afraid that the movement would be too big. She alarmed Wan Chengyang, so she had to glar at Wan Xiaohu, charming and charming.

This is a lively and fragrant movie viewing experience.

...

Wan Xiaohu enjoys happiness leisurely, and life is a bit difficult for several publishers who are competing for the release date with "Georgeousness".

A week before National Day, "Tai Chi 1: Starting from Zero" defeated "Bongquetai" with 36 million box office and won the weekly championship. Before he could be happy, the second week of National Day ended and was immediately defeated.

On the contrary, it was not popular for everyone to expect, "Georgement" was released on October 1st. It won 49 million yuan in a single day, surpassing the total of the other ten movies in a single day's box office.

On October 2, "Georgement" was another massacre, winning 46 million yuan in a single day.

On October 3, "Gravity" continued its efforts, with a box office of 47.5 million yuan a day and a box office of 142.5 million in three days, which is much weaker than "Inception" back then. However, considering that this movie does not have Chinese actors and the plot is not as fancy as "Inception". It is already a big hit to have such a box office.

Three days later, the publisher who came to grab the National Day holiday was really crying.

It would be fine if the movie was instantly killed, after all, the other party was Wan Xiaohu, but the theater company adjusted the screening volume in Santian, and "Gravity" jumped to 49.3%, accounting for almost half of the market, and the rest were not enough.

Moreover, if you hype "Grain" and you will be shameless, you will be able to kill "Grain" in the past three days, so you can't blame the theater for watching everything. Especially "Dangerous Relationships" starring Zhang Ziyi, Zhang Dongjian and Cecilia Cheung, the first of the four major actresses to star.

As a result, in a few days, the box office was barely over 25 million, and the attendance rate dropped to the embarrassing level of 14 people per game. The other movies were not much better, and none of them could reach 25 people per game. Only "Gravity" occupied the dominant position with an average of 79 people per game.

"Two years later, Wan Xiaohu returned from the world, and "Georgetic" returned shockingly! Declaring that he is still the absolute leader of commercial films!"

"When Wan Xiaohu comes out, who will compete with him!"

"The rise of 3D science fiction blockbusters, a soul-stirring journey to space."

"Wan Xiaohu has created an era, the pinnacle of space-themed film production!"

"Gratio" is well received and popular, and wants to regain the annual championship!"

After three days of outbreak, "Georgement" swept away the previous haze and became the object of praise in the eyes of the media again.
Chapter completed!
