212 Was the box office crushed on the first day?
After the premiere of "Wolf Warrior", the pre-screening was launched on August 14.
Roadshow, premiere, and preview. Although there were relatively few precedents and the reputation had not yet been fully fermented, Wei Xun had been exhausted for more than ten days before, and the basic reputation of "Wolf Warrior" was still very solid.
Most viewers who have watched this video have given a very positive review.
A military-themed movie with passion, high ignition and grand scenes has become the label of "Wolf Warrior" on the Internet.
Moreover, after the premiere, not only did the audience respond well, but even the picky film critics gave "Wolf Warrior" a low evaluation.
"The plot is a bit too second, and there are some minor flaws, but it is undeniable that Wei Xun's tough guy transformation was very successful."
"A Chinese military role who breaks the conventional impression is he is not serious, and he is also determined to defend his country and be determined. I have to say that as a commercial film director, Wei Xun is really good at pleasing the audience."
"In fact, since Wei Xun was wearing a military uniform and a ruffian and manly appearance in the movie, I knew that "Wolf Warrior" was going to succeed."
Since "No Questions", several movies directed by Wei Xun have continued to rise in box office, but they are not very popular in the film review circle.
After all, this circle is keen on supporting literary films, and most of them are picky about pure commercial films.
"Wolf Warrior" has been recognized by most film critics this time, which is a bit surprising.
Even Wei Xun himself was a little surprised.
"Brother Xun, what are you thinking about?"
In the office of Medal Media, Mao Bin said with some amusement: "Although our movies never have to care about what the critics think about it, but this time "Wolf Warrior" is praised by them, it must be that you did it well, what's so strange about it."
Since the preview of "Wolf Warrior", Wei Xun has been paying close attention to the public's evaluation of this movie.
As for the reason, of course, it is because the "Wolf Warrior" series has triggered a big rebound in another world.
In other words, people who love this movie are so crazy, and people who don’t love this movie feel uncomfortable when they see it.
Especially in "Wolf Warrior 1", the plot of this movie is actually quite flawed.
When Wei Xun was filming, he specially rectified the story of the script and repaired some overly embarrassing plots, so that the whole story would not appear to be too exaggerated in a "relatively reasonable" category.
It can be said that the quality of the current "Wolf Warrior 1" is definitely much higher than the original version, and from the plot to the level of explosion, it is more in line with the level of commercial blockbusters.
But don't forget that this is a main theme movie after all.
No matter how exciting the film is, the core remains unchanged.
The main theme can often hit some film critics' inner shame points and trigger some unreasonable rebound.
Just like the boy with a black baseball cap during the road show that day.
But Wei Xun searched through several famous film review magazines, forums, and comments before Baiban opened, and found that most of the film reviewers praised "Wolf Warrior" this time.
Mao Bin was speechless about Wei Xun’s doubts about “why did they choose to praise me but chose to praise me”.
Could it be that Brother Xun has been addicted to being scolded by film critics in the past two years?
"There must be something wrong with it, there is no doubt about it."
Hearing Mao Bin's words, Wei Xun shook his head, but he frowned and thought for a while, but still couldn't figure out what the problem was. So he said: "Prevent the online reviews of "Wolf Warrior" at any time. It will be officially released tomorrow. It doesn't matter if you are cautious."
At least now it seems that film critics collectively praised "Wolf Warrior" as not a matchmaker.
Because they are all normal praises, and there are also some flaws and shortcomings in the plot, they are not just praises.
The reason why Wei Xun finds it strange is that he is ready to be criticized.
Not only was he criticized by film critics, but he was also criticized by some extreme netizens.
You know, because he participated in the "Wolf Warrior" series, Master Wu was sprayed into a sieve in the next few years. Whenever his movie was about to be released, there would be a bloody storm on the Internet, which was terrifying than the most popular traffic.
The movie has not been released yet, so the online reviews will not be mentioned. The critics actually took the lead in releasing goodwill to "Wolf Warrior".
Wei Xun was a little confused.
But no matter whether he could think or not, "White Shark" and "Wolf Warrior" were officially released on August 16th.
Compared with "Wolf Warrior", the marketing of "White Shark" is simply terrifyingly exaggerated. There are 50 hot searches on the news list, and I bought more than a dozen hot searches on the day of its release!
And the Internet is praising people!
"Bruno is worthy of being a tough guy, a handsome guy!"
“The lens is beautiful and the atmosphere is scary, so recommend.”
"Zhou Xianxian is super beautiful."
Under the horrifying marketing of "White Shark", the presence of "Wolf Warrior" was even squeezed to the corners.
What’s even more exaggerated is that at noon on August 16, Dynasty Entertainment once again spent 30 million yuan on ticket purchases, helping "White Shark" in purchasing tickets!
The total investment of a "Wolf Warrior" is 100 million, while "White Shark" only makes up for the votes, and it cost 80 million!
After the theaters were listed and assets soared, Chaozhou Entertainment was not short of funds. When it was spent on real money, it was really not ruthless.
It is precisely this crazy way to make the ticket-selling method that has made the attendance rate of "White Shark" reach a terrifying level on the day of its release. Even the pre-sale box office of "White Shark" has been in popularity in the next three days.
In the early morning of August 17, the box office results of the previous day's premiere were released.
"Wolf Warrior" has 182 million.
"White Shark" has achieved a shocking box office of 295 million yuan, almost exceeding 300 million on the first day!
The gap between this is so big that it is amazing.
Because "Wolf Warrior" was completely crushed!
In the early morning of that day, Dynasty Entertainment had already issued a press release overnight. On major online social media, there was news that "Wolf Warrior" beat "The Wolf Warrior" on the first day.
"The Wolf Warrior lost to "White Shark" at the box office, and the gap is obvious and cannot be surpassed!"
"The military war theme is too unpopular, and even Wei Xun can't take it. At the box office market at the end of this summer vacation, the final winner belongs to "White Shark".
In the Medal Media Conference Room, Wei Xun and several directors who stayed to work overtime were having a meeting.
"Wolf Warrior" won 182 million yuan in box office on the first day. To be honest, everyone is very happy.
But if the White Shark's score of 295 million is ahead, then the happiness seems to be reduced a little.
Wei Xun looked through the comments of "White Shark" on the Internet and frowned deeper and deeper: "I still think there is something wrong. "White Shark" may be a super bad movie."
After he finished speaking, Mao Bin, Zou Min and others looked at each other.
The box office on the first day was 295 million yuan. How could "White Shark" be a bad movie?
Chapter completed!
