The first day has passed, and the box office data of the movie on October 9th has been calculated.
Ranking first is still "Tomorrow Earth", with a box office of 51.8 million that day and a cumulative box office of 1.39 billion.
The second place is "I'm Really Poor", which had a box office of 31.04 million that day and a cumulative box office of 590 million.
Other National Day movies have not yet been withdrawn, but Hongxin's "Breaking the Dimension Wall" has already ranked third despite a very low film schedule, with a box office of 30.08 million that day!
As soon as this data came out, people in the film and television industry were immediately shocked. With this kind of film schedule, the box office on the first day could exceed 30 million. If its film scheduling rate can reach the same level as "Tomorrow Earth", reaching nearly 50%, wouldn't it mean that it will steadily exceed 100 million on the first day
There are only a few movies in the history of Chinese films that have grossed over 100 million yuan on the first day! And Hong Xin’s first movie has such potential, it’s simply terrifying!
"What? With such a low film schedule, the first-day box office can still reach RMB 30 million!" At one o'clock in the morning, director Jiang Hongru was preparing to go to bed when he suddenly saw the latest news and was so shocked that he lost all sleep.
"Are you talking about the movie from Hongxin Pictures?" My wife, who was leaning next to me, also sat up and said in surprise: "Show me."
"Lao Jiang, this is incredible! This movie!"
"Yes!" Jiang Hongru nodded, "The film scheduling rate will definitely increase in the future, and maybe there will be a chance to exceed one billion!"
"One billion? Isn't that too exaggerated?" His wife didn't believe it.
"Just wait and see, I also hope I am wrong." Jiang Hongru said.
"The first day's box office is 30 million!" Xia Kui of Lida Film and Television Company looked at this data and frowned. "This ratio is too terrible! This is the first time in the history of Chinese movies! Is their movie Is it really so popular?”
He looked at Jiang Cuiliu, the general manager of Lida Cinema. The affairs of Lida Cinema Line were managed by Jiang Cuiliu.
Jiang Cuiliu nodded with a cautious expression and said: "According to feedback from theaters, all box office records are real. And the audience strongly requested us to increase the number of broadcasts, and now I am still holding on."
"We'll wait and see what happens tomorrow. We can't let them break through our film and television industry so easily!" Xia Kui said in a heavy tone.
However, the market will not tell lies. The next day, "Breaking the Dimensional Wall" became even more popular, and some news media and online public accounts also began to pick up the pace.
Because some theaters increased the film schedule of "Breaking the Dimensional Wall" the next day, the box office of "Breaking the Dimensional Wall" actually doubled the next day, reaching 63 million! Topped the box office list that day.
At this time, other theaters could no longer hold back, and began to secretly increase the screening rate of "Breaking the Dimensional Wall".
A special feature of this non-virtual projection movie is that the audience can hardly see the pirated version! Because you can’t watch this pirated version, you can only watch it with a virtual projection device.
The audience could not restrain their curiosity and went to the cinema to watch it. Just like when the first 3D movie appeared, the plot was not very good, but it set a box office record for movies around the world.
Today's virtual projection movies not only have good plot design, but also have a brand-new visual experience. It is expected to receive high market feedback.
On the third day, "Breaking the Dimensional Wall" reached a new high, with a box office of 90 million!
“Mr.
Xia Kui felt deeply helpless. If their theater did not increase the number of shows, audiences would go to other theaters, which would be a huge loss of customers.
"Hey! Add more, increase the number of games!" Xia Kui sighed.
"Are we just going to give in?" Jiang Cuiliu was a little unwilling. "I heard that some film and television companies have begun to actively show their kindness to Hongxin Film and Television and help with promotional activities. There are also movie theaters that urgently ordered virtual projection equipment from Hongxin Electronics. ”
"If we let them get bigger, it will definitely affect us."
"You can't suppress it too much, but you can suppress it a little bit. We must not let this movie become a phenomenal work!" A trace of cruelty flashed in Xia Kui's eyes.
October 12th is the fourth day since "Breaking the Dimensional Wall" was released. Today is also the day when the Hollywood blockbuster "Alien" is released in China. This science fiction masterpiece has been released in North America earlier and won the first place in the box office during the same period and is highly anticipated by domestic audiences.
For this reason, the theater removed two movies with poor box office from the shelves in advance to make room for them.
This movie is also science fiction and is also famous for its special effects. Its release will bring great competition to "Breaking the Dimension Wall". Just like the release of "Breaking the Dimension Wall" caused a decline in the box office of other movies in the same period, many people predicted that this Hollywood science fiction blockbuster would affect the box office of "Breaking the Dimension Wall".
Not only that, but some negative news suddenly appeared on the Internet.
For example, the rating of the movie "Breaking the Dimensional Wall" suddenly dropped, and overnight, there were many negative reviews.
A well-known film critic said that this movie is just in name, with blank content and no ideas at all. It is just a garbage work, pure hype, and not worth watching in the cinema.
Lu Zixin has long been accustomed to this kind of inferior business competition method.
Hongxin Software Development Co., Ltd., director of the network information security management department, just received a call from Lu Zixin.
"Hello, Mr. Lu."
"Yes." Lu Zixin replied, "I have something to trouble your department."
"Mr. Lu, please tell me."
"Our company recently entered the film and television industry, and some villains are slandering it on the Internet. Hongxin Film and Television has just been established, and it has little strength in online public opinion. You can cooperate with Hongxin Film and Television to help remove the negative impact." Lu Zixin Directly ordered.
"No problem!" The director over there immediately smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, we can solve this kind of trivial matter in minutes. People in the film and television industry probably don't know the strength of our Hongxin on the Internet, and they are just looking for abuse by playing tricks with us. ah!"
After everything was arranged, Lu Zixin waited to see the box office data on the fourth day. The cumulative box office of Breaking the Dimension Wall is now only close to 200 million. Based on box office share and cost calculation, this movie will not be able to make back its money even if it takes 1 billion.
Unless it earns more than a billion in box office in China, and then another billion in the global market, it can be considered a huge profit.
On the fourth day, "Alien" was released as scheduled. However, this Hollywood blockbuster with excellent reputation did not explode at the box office as the film and television circles thought, squeezing "Breaking the Dimension Wall". Instead, it suffered a waterloo on the first day, and the box office was terrible. !
In the online questionnaire survey, the audience's answers were also very simple and clear.
Netizens commented: "After watching the ultra-realistic special effects of virtual projection, I didn't feel anything when watching the 3D special effects! The so-called Hollywood blockbusters are nothing more than that. Let's go see "Breaking the Dimension Wall"!"
