Breaking 1 billion on the first day is not a common achievement. Even on the blue planet where the market is crazier than that of the Earth, a movie that can break 1 billion on the first day can definitely be called a blockbuster of the period!
Faced with this situation, major theaters reacted extremely quickly!
Cinemas in various continents are rapidly increasing their subsequent screening schedules for "Kung Fu"!
Liu Xing's film "Imperial City" was the first to be affected by the scheduling adjustment.
no way.
Who made "Imperial City" have the same screening schedule as "Kung Fu" but fail to achieve the same results as others
We can't let you occupy the toilet without doing anything all the time, you must give "Kung Fu" some space.
reality.
cruel.
This is the cinema.
Cinemas also have to make money, and the cost of playing movies using high-tech such as naked-eye 3D is still quite high.
certainly.
It’s not just Imperial City that is affected.
Other movies in the same period have also been affected to varying degrees, but their market share is not as big as that of "Imperial City". Most of them have been released for some time and have already made most of their box office revenue. Therefore, the decline in box office revenue indirectly caused by the reduction in screenings is within an acceptable range for these film producers.
Nothing to complain about.
This is how cinema screenings are arranged.
If "Kung Fu" doesn't become a hit during this period, other movies will also be squeezed out and their market share will be taken over by "The Imperial City".
The most profitable movie of the same period must have the highest treatment. It is the one that gets to eat the meat, while others can only drink the soup.
Unless there are two major competitors in the same period, or even multiple parties fighting to take over, the film scheduling will take everyone into consideration.
This often happens during popular seasons.
But it's obvious.
August this year is destined to be the month when "Kung Fu" will stand out.
Liu Xing's "Imperial City" cannot reach the level of competing with the two heroes.
Sharing the same misfortune as "Imperial City" are those movies released a few days before or after "Kung Fu"!
Not only have these new films lost a large number of screenings to "Kung Fu", but the expected audience size has also been severely reduced!
Having said that.
If you go to the cinema during this period, movies like "Kung Fu" which are both a hit in terms of word-of-mouth and box office will be the audience's first choice.
All other movies have to take a back seat.
As for where these unlucky guys come from
That’s right!
Most of them are from Central China!
Because many film producers in Zhongzhou wanted to use the August schedule to snipe Xianyu, but now they are failing to snipe him and are being screwed instead.
This moment.
The relevant stakeholders of Zhongzhou Film Industry’s August layout are in great distress!
"Where did this monster come from!"
"How come a blockbuster movie of this magnitude appeared in August?"
"Where did we say we would snipe Xianyu? Who is sniping whom?"
“This box office is outrageous!”
"I checked Xianyu's past box office performance, and it's not this impressive!"
"How come we happened to be the one that had his best box office success?"
"Mom, I want to go home!"
"It's too late, we've all fallen into this pit!"
"I thought the most popular movie of the same period was Imperial City, but I didn't expect Xianyu to be even more popular. With two popular movies coming out at the same time, people like us don't stand a chance at all!"
"Don't even mention us, even the Imperial City is in trouble!"
"If there was no Kung Fu movie to compare it to, Imperial City would have definitely been a huge hit at the box office, but unfortunately there are no ifs in reality."
"Don't talk to me about sniping Xianyu anymore!"
"This guy is a pervert. He's good at making music, but he's also so terrible at making movies!"
…
It's really terrifying.
In the next few days when the screening schedule was greatly increased, the daily box office of "Kung Fu" was very impressive!
Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei and Zhongzhou.
The interpretations and analyses of this movie are even crazier!
The number one magazine in the Central Continental film industry, Film Weekly, even devoted a special feature to Kung Fu!
"This is a commercial film that is worth savoring again and again. The word 'savoring' does not seem to be associated with commercial films that are clearly popcorn-worthy, but this film is an exception. The shot of the envy fish leaves the audience with a lot of meaning to think about. For example, after watching the film, we thought about it for a long time before we were shocked to discover an almost absurd fact: the protagonist of this film, the male lead played by He Sheng, actually has no name..."
Many people didn’t notice it at first.
It was not until the movie-watching craze broke out that people realized that the leading actor played by He Sheng actually had no name!
Obviously.
This is a design that is worth people's thinking, it is impressive and even makes people imagine and even whimsical.
The countless discussions and fantasies generated by this directly became one of the biggest topics of the film.
And the box office is soaring.
The Internet is filled with sighs from people from all continents:
"Movies are just Xianyu's sideline. Most of Xianyu's thoughts are spent on music. If Xianyu didn't make music, but devoted himself to movies, I really can't imagine his achievements in the film industry!"
"Maybe it can enter the top ten of the Blue Star Film and Television List?"
“I can’t say for sure about the top ten, but the top twenty is definitely a no-brainer.”
"Looking at this hot trend, what do you think the final box office of Kung Fu will be?"
"It depends on the aftereffect."
"If there is not enough stamina, 50 to 60 billion is the maximum."
"If you have enough stamina, you can arrange the delayed key and you will be invincible!"
"Judging from the performance in recent days, this movie has no signs of running out of steam."
"Yeah, it'll take some time for the movie to be taken off the shelves. Instead of that, it's better to guess how high Xianyu's ranking will rise this time."
"I think I can jump many places!"
"After all, his film this time was so well done, the action and comedy complement each other, and the soundtrack is simply unbeatable!"
“That still depends on the box office.”
"Let's see how much Kung Fu will earn at the end of the month."
How much box office "Kung Fu" can earn by the end of the month is being closely watched by countless eyes in all continents!
One week!
Two weeks!
Three weeks!
For three consecutive weeks, "Kung Fu" has been firmly at the top of the global box office charts, achieving three consecutive championships!
August 31st!
In the early morning of that day, the box office revenue of "Kung Fu" had reached 7.7 billion!
Netizens are shocked!
The media was shocked!
The industry is shocked!
Lin Yuan was shocked by the current real-time box office of "Kung Fu". This number is really scary. If it were in our great China, it would directly rank first in the national box office!
certainly.
The Blue Planet is not Earth.
We cannot look at these two planets in the same light.
The most perverted movie on earth, "Avatar", had a total box office of nearly 3 billion US dollars, which was about 18 billion RMB according to the exchange rate at the time.
Lin Yuan specifically checked the box office rankings of Blue Star.
Blue Star’s best-performing movie has a box office of around 30 billion!
Even the movie ranked tenth on the Blue Star Box Office List earned over 20 billion!
However, those movies were made many years ago, and most of them were produced in Zhongzhou.
Whether before or after the merger, Zhongzhou has always firmly controlled all major areas of Blue Star.
In the past, Blue Planet did not have cultural walls restricting different continents.
At that time, box office hits could easily be released simultaneously around the world.
Later, the blue planet was divided into eight continents. Local governments built cultural walls. Foreign films had to be imported if they wanted to be screened across regions, and the various restrictions were very troublesome. The taxes on imports alone were a huge expense. Anyway, the rules and regulations were very complicated, which directly led to the era of box office explosions being gone forever. Governments of each continent would rather make less money to support their own films.
Now Bluestar is merging.
The market has returned to the era before the blue planet split into eight continents, and movies can be released globally without restrictions!
It is against this background that "Kung Fu" can be so powerful!
This is equivalent to reaping the first market share from Blue Star’s return to the big merger!
Lin Yuan used "Kung Fu" to announce that Blue Star had returned to the era of movies with extremely terrifying box office ceilings!
certainly.
Let’s not talk about the bonus items like the soundtrack and promotional animation.
The fundamental reason why the movie "Kung Fu" can be popular all over the world is:
Blue Star is a world dominated by Eastern culture and compatible with multiple cultures.
The system and values of Western films are also popular in the Blue Star film market.
Just like how we Chinese find some Hollywood movies very exciting and are willing to acknowledge the excellence of their industrial system.
However, a movie like "Kung Fu" which uses traditional oriental culture as its connotation and dominant style can obviously be a global hit in the Blue Star Movie Market!
take off!

ps: Because I saw someone say that "Kung Fu" was not powerful enough, so I explained at the end why this movie could become a big hit. It is indeed impossible to set it on Earth, but the Blue Planet is centered on Eastern culture, which is a beautiful fantasy, just like our Chinese songs in novels often cause all kinds of shock. The background setting itself is to make everyone feel refreshed. For example, if I want to write here that Cameron's Avatar is a big hit on the Blue Planet, it may have more basis in reality, but the sense of immersion will definitely be much worse, right? Entertainment novels are mainly for entertainment. Everyone can read them for fun and be happy and satisfied, and that's it.
