Chapter 631 Chinese Kung Fu
Yesterday, the single-day box office of "Nine Levels of Sesame Official" only exceeded 200 million. On the second day, it directly exceeded 300 million. This has exceeded the expectations of the filmmakers.
This year's summer season is already a bit sluggish, and the box office performance of movies is also very different.
The box office of "The Ancient Gods 2" is already quite good, and there are several movies whose box office cannot even recoup the production cost, including movies starring movie stars.
In the movie market, no matter whether you are a movie king or a top-notch actor, your box office performance will still be a hit.
A few days before the release, you may be able to attract a large number of viewers to watch the film through its fame, but basically it will be revealed after three days.
In April, "Tang Bo Hu Spots the Fragrance of Autumn" was released and grossed nearly RMB 2 billion at the box office. People will subconsciously compare the summer movie with "Tang Bo Hu Spots the Fragrance of Autumn".
At the end of the day, no Chinese-language movie in the summer season has had a box-office revenue greater than "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", which is very embarrassing.
"The Ancient God 2" is still being postponed. If the delayed box office is included, it may still surpass "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", but it has already lost at the box office.
There is no key extension for "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance".
Nowadays, "Nine Levels of Sesame Official" has suddenly emerged and attracted the attention of countless people.
“Xu Ye has to take action! Come to me, the ninth-grade Sesame Officer, and kill the Dragon War Chronicles!”
“How come in the end only Xu Ye can defeat Xu Ye!”
“This single-day box office is already the highest in the summer, right?”
“Let it sell! Let it sell!”
Shadiao netizens shouted out some famous lines from the movie again on the Internet.
Meme requires a certain amount of cultural foundation. If no one knows the meme, it will be meaningless if you tell it.
It would be different if most people could understand this meme.
Even some people who don't understand this meme will be led to understand it spontaneously or passively.
If everyone finds it interesting, they will spread it spontaneously, eventually forming a meme culture.
This is what the "Nine-Pin Sesame Official" looks like today.
Netizens who have watched the movie spread the word, making many netizens who have not watched the movie become curious.
Is this movie really that good?
Some people here will buy movie tickets and go to the cinema to watch.
Director Tang Zhirong became numb after seeing the terrifying single-day box office performance of "The Nine-Princess Sesame Official".
It has sold more than 500 million yuan in just two days after its release. You made all the money!
He is a movie maker, so he naturally understands that the cost of this kind of comedy is not high.
Furthermore, the scene of "Nine-grade Sesame Official" is relatively simple, and the cost is relatively lower.
From this point of view, Xu Ye made back the cost of filming the movie in these two days alone.
This makes Tang Zhirong extremely envious.
His Ancient Gods series of movies are all large-scale productions. Just hiring domestic and foreign special effects companies for special effects production cost a lot of money.
There are also actors' salaries and other shooting costs, making the production cost of the movie quite high.
Even if the final box office revenue is more than 1 billion, the money earned is not much.
However, in the face of the strong rise of "Nine Levels of Sesame Official", Tang Zhirong did not plan to do anything, or in other words, he could not do anything.
Faced with the pressure of "War of the Dragons", the Chinese film market needs "Nine Levels of Sesame Official".
By the time Sunday night came, it was morning in the United States.
Piazza, the director of "War of the Dragons", woke up from the big bed, and lying next to him was a blonde beauty with wheat complexion.
Piazza attended a banquet yesterday and returned to his residence with an actress.
"Legend of Dragons" dominated the Chinese film market and earned more than 2 billion at the box office. This movie also did quite well at the box office in Europe and the United States, and Piazza's status has also been raised to a higher level.
His new movie has also successfully received investment from more people, and many actors also want to participate in the production of his movie.
Piazza's new movie has been in preparation for a long time, and it just needs to be cast before it can be shot.
After seeing the potential of the Chinese market, Piazza decided to pay attention to the Chinese market.
Then add some Chinese elements to the new movie and add a Chinese actor. This can be used as a publicity point. Chinese people will feel valued after seeing it, which will contribute to more box office revenue.
These changes were as simple as replacing an unimportant character for Piazza's team.
His team has already started doing so.
After Piazza stretched beautifully, he patted the beautiful woman next to him on the butt.
The beauty immediately kissed him on the face obediently.
Piazza picked up his phone and checked the situation.
But when he saw the message on his phone, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared.
Some friends have already sent him news that a movie in China called "Nine Levels of Sesame Official" has won the single-day box office championship.
Piazza was a little disbelieving when he saw the data sent by his friend.
“What kind of movie is this that has such a high box office?”
Even at its peak, the single-day box office of "War of the Dragons" did not exceed 300 million.
Piazza felt a sense of crisis.
After all, there is a difference between the box office champion and the second-place Chinese summer movie, and the former sounds better in terms of publicity.
But what left Piazza speechless the most was whose summer movie was only released in mid-August!
Are you sick?
When he looked up some information about "Nine Levels of Sesame Official", he discovered that the name of the film's director Xu Ye was a bit familiar.
After checking Xu Ye again, Piazza found out that this person sang Little Apple!
On the Internet, Piazza also searched for a video of Xu Ye playing and singing "Nocturne" on a piano kebab cart.
This video was taken from the live broadcast.
Piazza watched the video and frowned.
When Xu Ye started driving the piano skewers truck, his eyes suddenly widened.
Piazza was speechless after watching the entire video.
There is something really wrong with this person. He has never seen any singer play like this.
This video is quite popular on the Internet. A piano skewers cart is enough to attract netizens, and with the addition of a "Nocturne", it is full of attractions.
The comment area was also filled with shock from foreign netizens.
Piazza scrolled down and saw another video.
This video is a video of the inverted hair washing machine invented by Xu Ye in "Wandering Music".
After watching this video, Piazza was even more speechless.
Foreign netizens also gave Xu Ye the nickname of a great inventor.
Piazza searched around and found no useful information.
But he was already on guard.
Although "War of the Dragons" has entered the final stage before release, we cannot just watch "Nine Levels of Sesame Official" catch up, and we must take action.
In the end, Piazza decided to release some news about his next film in China, focusing on the use of Chinese elements.
It just so happened that his team had produced a character concept CG some time ago, and it was time to release this CG.
Monday, August 20.
Yesterday's box office of "The Nine-Level Sesame Official" has been released, with a total of 350 million.
So far, the box office in the first three days of release has totaled 880 million.
But today has entered a working day, and the box office will definitely not be as strong as it was on the weekend.
Under normal circumstances, after Monday, the box office will be halved compared to Sunday.
But as far as the current situation of "Nine Levels of Sesame Official" is concerned, even if it is cut in half, the single-day box office is still 100 million.
On the Internet, discussions about movies have not stopped.
Some netizens are making memes, while others are analyzing the metaphors in the movie.
At noon, Jiupin Zhimaguan's official Weibo updated a Weibo.
Weibo contains emoticons from the movie.
There are emoticons of Lei Bao, Bao Youwei, Fang Tangjing, etc.
These emoticons are not available to netizens, and some of the images are not published online at all.
“Jiupin Zhima official series emoticon packs are online. If you need them, please pick them up yourself.”
As a result, netizens discovered that there was no emoticon of Bao Longxing in it.
“Why is there no one with Bao Longxing?”
“There's not even an emoticon of the leading actor. Isn't that too unprofessional?”
“Add Bao Longxing's emoticon to me immediately!”
What everyone didn't expect was that Xu Ye posted a Weibo post after a while.
“Bao Longxing's emoticon package is here!”
There are also nine pictures on his Weibo.
Netizens were speechless when they saw the Weibo content.
These nine pictures of yours are all photos of you in the movie. Where do you get the emoticons?
"roll!"
"Dean, give up. You are taking the path of strength, not the path of idols. Don't post handsome photos anymore. It's a bit disgusting."
“No one is really interested in your looks.”
The comments from netizens were also very sharp.
By the afternoon, a topic became a hot search topic.
“The director of The Legend of Dragons said that the new movie will have Chinese elements.”
After everyone clicked on the topic, they found that this was a video posted by a marketing account in the movie section.
In the video, Piazza was interviewed by a reporter.
"I particularly like China. The days I lived in China were my happiest days. The food, scenery and people in China made me feel great. I have been exposed to Chinese culture since I was a child. Chinese culture has deeply affected me. I I will use my understanding of Chinese culture to create a superhero in my new movie "Guardian of the Inverse", and this hero will be good at Chinese Kung Fu!"
In the interview, Piazza looked genuine.
Subsequently, the marketing accounts also released a CG video of more than 20 seconds.
In the video, there is a man with black hair and yellow skin. He is wearing a black training suit with the word "武" written on it.
The man hit the sandbag with his fists, and then the scene changed and the man appeared at a crime scene.
He used his wonderful actions to eliminate all these criminals, and finally left with a handsome figure behind.
This video has caused widespread discussion online.
“Chinese Kung Fu is really cool! Looking forward to it!”
“It's so funny that our Chinese Kung Fu needs foreigners to film it.”
“I have to say that foreign countries are doing really well in this regard.”
Piazza's move did bring him a lot of favorability, and also boosted the box office of "Dragons".
The topic of Chinese Kung Fu has also gained popularity.
There are almost no real kung fu action movies on the market today, not just movies, but TV series as well.
In previous TV series, the actors' fighting movements were more handsome than the others, but in today's TV series, each one is worse than the other.
Kung Fu is one of the representative elements of China, and audiences also hope to see such films on the big screen.
When Xu Ye saw the discussion online, he asked the studio to post a Weibo post without any hesitation.
“Preparations have begun for Xu Ye's next movie, and the theme of this movie is kung fu.”
As soon as Piazza was released on Weibo, much of the hype surrounding Piazza was transferred to Xu Ye.
Xu Ye is serious about the popularity!
