I’ll Add Points To All Things

The Spring Festival file has always been the most important schedule in the domestic film market. Every year, one or two popular movies will be released from the Spring Festival archives.

Especially "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", which started in 2013, and for three consecutive years, the box office of the number one movie in the Spring Festival is almost always around 1 billion.

This seems to have made the Spring Festival file the most important schedule after the summer vacation file, which is a protection month for domestic films.

So this year is no exception.

Movies in the Spring Festival file have touched everyone's hearts long before they were released.

Especially Master Xing brought his debut novel "Journey to the West: Conquering the Devil" to the word-of-mouth and box office, and brought his new work "Mermaid" to the Spring Festival again, while Su Yang also brought his debut novel "The Wandering Planet". The biggest attraction.

In the early pre-sale, the final pre-sale box office of the two films was similar, and "Wandering Planet" had a slight advantage. But this is the reason why "Wandering Planet" has a slightly more film schedule the next day.

So... what determines the success or failure of the two films is the quality of the film.

As long as there is a movie whose quality is worse than the propaganda, then the box office is likely to collapse, and then another movie can eat a lot of money.

And judging from all the factors: such as director experience, actor status, appeal, professionalism of the production team, investment amount, the possibility of "Wandering Planet" crashing is much higher than "Mermaid".

Therefore, the quality of "Wandering Planet" has become a matter of curiosity for everyone.

New Year's Day, 0 o'clock.

While many families are still having New Year's Eve dinner, many trendy young people have already started the New Year's Eve Carnival. They invited friends to have New Year's Eve dinner together, watched the Spring Festival Gala together, and went out to watch Spring Festival movies together all night.

I don't know when it started, and it became a "fashion" for some young people living in their hometown.

Therefore, even though it was a family reunion festival, these young people still drove or took taxis to movie theaters and watched movies.

Because there are only five new movies in the Spring Festival file, their selection range is relatively narrow, and because "Wandering Planet" and "Mermaid" have more publicity, there are more heated discussions on the Internet. So they prioritized those two films.

At the beginning of the movie, many young couples and friends walked into the screening hall together and began to watch these two movies.

But when the two movies started, the situation in several screening halls was different.

The audience watching "The Mermaid" was full of laughter and laughter, occasionally mixed with some embarrassing silences, but not many. Generally speaking, this movie is a good comedy, it retains the comedic style of the actors and directors of Master Xing, so the quality is very high, especially during the Spring Festival, which is a happy festival, people can't help but like it .

On the other side, the scene of "Wandering Planet" was much calmer. Almost every hall playing "Wandering Planet" was completely silent, without any feedback.

This made some movie theater staff start to doubt the quality of "Wandering Planet": Is it because the audience doesn't buy it because it's not good-looking? Why is there no sound at all?

Some people who were invited by film and television companies to investigate also discovered this situation, so they couldn't help but doubt the quality of "Wandering Planet".

In particular, the investigators invited for the few movies in the Spring Festival file are very happy to hear about it: the plate of the Spring Festival file is so big, once the quality of "Wandering Planet" is not satisfactory,

Then the audience who was originally attracted to watch the movie by it is likely to choose other movies.

In this way, the box office of other movies is likely to be higher than the original expectations!

Just when people outside the theater had different thoughts, an hour and a half passed in a flash.

At 1:30, the audience of "The Mermaid" left first. They were all laughing and chatting happily. They felt that the movie was not bad.

Seeing this, some investigators from major movie theaters quickly followed up and asked them a few questions using small gifts as a "temptation".

Most of the viewers who took the survey had positive comments on "The Mermaid".

"I think "The Mermaid" is pretty good. It's funny."

"Yes. I feel good too. Although it's a little awkward now and then, it doesn't hide its flaws. It's very interesting."

"I'm here for Master Xing. I really like this movie."

Overall, the vast majority of reviews are positive. Out of 10 people, maybe only one feels that this movie is not good, it is a bit too illogical.

This is already an exaggerated achievement. This shows that "The Mermaid" is definitely an excellent movie!

Therefore, after getting this kind of feedback, the producers and producers of "Mermaid" felt relieved. They knew their movie would explode! It seems that the king of this Spring Festival stall is about to belong to me!

At the same time, until 2 o'clock, the screening hall of "Wandering Planet" ended the screening.

Compared with "Mermaid", the hall of "Wandering Planet" was quiet for a full two hours, but now an astonishing momentum erupted after the show ended.

applause!

Prolonged applause!

The applause made some audiences waiting outside the cinema, as well as those walking out, look sideways, not knowing what happened.

There are actually audience applauding for a movie?

Is it because the stars are here?

And the people in the movie theater were also curious. Because all major movie theaters across the country have just finished showing the first "Wandering Planet", so they have never encountered this kind of situation, and they don't know what happened in it.

Is it only their movie theaters?

Is there something wrong with that auditorium?

But what the employees of these movie theaters didn't know was that this kind of applause was born in many theaters at the same time.

And these cinemas, these shows, all played the same movie: "Wandering Planet"!

For a moment... the door of the screening hall opened, and many audience members came out crying and laughing, leaving the theater staff outside and the curious audience stunned.

They don't know what's going on inside.

Is there any plot that moved them?

Or... Could it be that Su Yang typed a big line at the end of the movie, "Those who don't applaud can't find a partner in this life"?

That's too vicious!

At this time, the investigators who were guarding outside the theater hurried forward and asked some questions about what happened.

They all got the same answer,

"This is the best domestic sci-fi movie I've ever seen! I really didn't expect such a movie to be produced in our country! It's so good!"

This kind of answer, this kind of evaluation, is simply surprising.

And a competitor investigator tried to ask, "Then why are you crying? Is "Wandering Planet" a tragic movie?"

The idea of ​​these investigators is also very simple: if it is a tragedy movie, even if it is of high quality, it is still easy to encounter Waterloo during the happy time of the Spring Festival.

After all, everyone watches movies, especially on festivals, to have fun, not to watch a tragedy.

But he got a completely opposite answer:

"Why cry? Because we are so proud and moved! We have never felt so proud at such a moment! Our motherland and our nation are so great! We are the most powerful group of people in the world!"

Judging from the answers of these audiences, all the investigators can see one thing: these audiences are really moved by this movie! They cried because they were proud and moved!

so...

All the investigators couldn't help but come to an astonishing conclusion: "Wandering Planet" is not going to explode, right?

No way?

Is "The Wandering Planet" really surpassing Master Xing's "The Mermaid"?

We must know that according to the momentum of the pre-sale, the box office of "Mermaid" in the entertainment and film circles is expected to be above 2.3 billion. In other words, there is a great possibility of reaching the top of the box office of domestic movies!

It is even possible to compete for the first place in the total box office!

Become a true film and television hero!

You know, as a big country in the world, the movie box office records in the mainland have always been created by foreign movies. In the past 20 years, no domestic film has reached the top of the list! This is simply a slap in the face of the entire film and television industry!

Otherwise, there would be no new-generation directors like Jiaozi and Guo Fan who want to revitalize domestic films!

For nothing else. Just because it's too shameful!

And if "Wandering Planet" can really surpass "The Mermaid", then the box office should be at least 3 billion, right?

Is it...is it going to be the first 3 billion box office movie in history?

Is it really going to be the No. 1 box office in film history?

How can this achievement be achieved by just relying on such a movie with no stars and even a part-time actor as the leading actor?

For a while, everyone in the entertainment industry and film and television industry who knew the news was a little dumbfounded...

No way...

No way...!

The most interesting thing about reality is that what you least expect it to happen is destined to happen...

As the screenings of "Wandering Planet" ended, the word-of-mouth of "Wandering Planet" began to explode. Those who can go to the movies at this time are night owls and young people who are active on the Internet.

After watching the movie, they couldn't fall asleep even more. They left messages on Weibo, Moments, Douban and other major online platforms, strongly recommending "The Wandering Earth".

It is said that this movie has a good idea, a good plot, and good special effects, and it is simply the best domestic movie!

And... the sincerity of the film is also full, every frame is a big production, you must watch the 3D version, the effect is bursting! Don't look at it and regret it for the rest of your life!

In addition to the tap water of "Wandering Planet", some senior audiences who watched the two movies even talked about the differences between the two movies.

They said that the production cost of "Wandering Planet" is actually similar to that of "The Mermaid". When they first watched "The Mermaid", they actually thought it was very funny, and felt that their movie tickets and the 400 million production cost were worth it.

But when I watched "The Wandering Planet" for the second time, I realized... I, Cao, it turns out that these stars' money was used for special effects to make such a good movie? !

This is the real movie! This is a big production that cost money!

And some viewers who watched "Wandering Planet" first and then "Mermaid" felt that after watching "Wandering Planet" and then watching "Mermaid", they couldn't stand it anymore.

It's not that "The Mermaid" is bad, but that the impression left by "Wandering Planet" is too shocking. Can't watch any other movies at all.

So...many people gave movie-watching recommendations for the Spring Festival stalls:

If money or time is limited, only one movie is allowed. Then you must watch "The Wandering Planet"! If you miss it, you will regret it for life!

If you can watch two movies, it is recommended to watch "Wandering Planet" first.

Then, in the second round, replay "Wandering Planet"...

If you can watch three movies, you can watch "The Mermaid" three times according to your personal preferences...

The audience is not a fool, everyone has a steelyard in their hearts. Like inviting those star movies, everyone can only laugh at most, but watching a blockbuster with special effects like "Wandering Planet", when everyone watches the movie, there will really be a feeling that money is burning!

Every second and every frame of the picture is all piled up by red Mao grandpas!

How many movies like this are made in China?

If you don't support it, who will make this kind of movie in the future?

Audiences in this era have learned to vote with their money. They know that only if they support this kind of movie, more and more filmmakers will devote themselves to the production of this kind of movie in the future.

As for... The Mermaid.

Ok. Definitely next time.

So, in less than ten hours, the public opinion on the Internet was completely detonated. This melee during the Spring Festival, which was thought to be a battle between dragons and tigers, was almost decided in the early morning of the first day.

Upon waking up, many practitioners in the film and television industry are still planning to see which box office is higher, "Wandering Planet" or "The Mermaid". In the end, before they could watch the box office, the overwhelming tap water of "Wandering Planet" left them dumbfounded.

Immediately afterwards, seeing the survey results again, these professionals didn't know that "Wandering Planet" might really dominate the entire Spring Festival!

At this time, they were looking at the box office of several movies: "Mermaid" 120 million, "Wandering Planet" 100 million, "Aocheng 3": 40 million, "Journey to the West" 40 million, "Nian Beast ( That cartoon) "120,000...

This is an evening plus morning data.

But through this, it is already possible to predict the approximate direction of the box office...

"Nian Beast" was out early, "Olympic City 3" and "Journey to the West" are obviously movies of the same grade, but they are not comparable to the highest grade.

And "Mermaid" is still 20 million higher than "Wandering Planet", but... everyone knows that this advantage will not last long.

Sure enough, in less than a day, just in the afternoon, "Wandering Planet" successfully overtook it.

And at 0 o'clock, the day is over.

"Wandering Planet" leads the Spring Festival with 320 million, and "Mermaid" is the runner-up with 250 million. "Wandering Planet" fully exceeded the box office of "Mermaid" by 70 million!

This is the decisive factor that quality brings!

At this moment, everyone knew that "The Mermaid" lost...

The quality cannot be compared, word-of-mouth cannot be compared, and now even the box office on the first day (actor appeal) cannot be compared, how can this be compared?

Especially tomorrow, the schedule of "Wandering Planet" will be greatly increased, and "Mermaid" is even more incomparable!

Sure enough, to everyone's surprise, the box office of "Wandering Planet" soared to 400 million on the second day.

On the third day, 450 million...

On the fourth day, 460 million...

The momentum of "Wandering Planet" is literally rising like a rocket. In just four days, "Wandering Planet" broke through the box office of 1.6 billion!

This momentum stunned everyone.

What is the current box office record for domestic films?

Like "Monster Hunt"? 2.4 billion?

What is the number one box office in history?

Like "Fast 7"? 2.43 billion?

"Wandering Planet" doesn't seem to be far away...

Is it really going to break the record?
