China Entertainment: The happiness of being a director is as simple as that

"Old Wang, what are you doing on weekends?"

"Isn't it summer vacation? Take the kids to the movies and accompany your wife and kids."

"What movie are you watching?"

"Lu Ping'an's "Night at the Museum". I heard that this movie is very suitable for the whole family to watch."

"Oh, I've heard of it. It's a very funny comedy. Old Cui and the others in the next building just watched it. They said there is a third-brother model?"

"Yes, what we are watching this time is in 3D."

"That's okay, look back and tell me about it. If it looks good, our whole family will go too."

"Didn't you just finish watching House of Flying Daggers?"

"Hey, why are you mentioning that stuff? It's not suitable for children. Let me tell you. It's best not to bring children to watch this kind of film. Don't talk about it. You should go quickly."

Conversations like this are happening all over the country these days.

Question: When did the first family-style comedy film in domestic film and television that caters to all ages and is suitable for all ages appear?

Answer: Now.

If you don't study it, you don't know. Once you study it, everyone will find that "Night at the Museum" is really the first movie of this type mentioned above.

There are many family carnival movies, but there are very few that can satisfy both the north and the south at the same time.

"Wonderful Night" did it.

Not only did it, it did it well.

The creativity of the plot, the texture of the film and special effects, and the audio-visual effects are all top-notch.

There is also positive energy in the film.

Educate people to be brave.

There is a warm father-son relationship.

The characterization is also full and three-dimensional to the point, but it doesn't overwhelm the guest.

Of course, the most important thing is that the movie is fun and you can experience 3D.

In addition to these, it also has a "super bad film" to set it off.

In the case of word-of-mouth, one is in the sky and the other is in the ground.

"Wonderful Night" is one of the two blockbusters in the summer.

It's hard not to explode now.

Besides, a family of at least three, needless to say how much impact it has on the box office.

This is like the later "Thailand Lost".

When word of mouth began to spread, there were no particularly good movies in the same period.

That's when it should explode.

So it was released for nearly 3 days.

The box office data for the first three days has not yet been counted.

But Lu Pingan already knew.

The data is definitely not bad.

The reputation of "Wonderful Night" is really good.

Coupled with the right time, place and people, a movie-watching boom has already emerged.

According to the data from Planet Cinema News.

The average attendance rate of "Wonderful Night" has exceeded 75%.

This is a scary number.

The attendance rate of the 3D theater has reached more than 95%.

Among them, 4% of the audience came with their families.

The ratings for the film are also high.

On the Tianya movie rating post, hundreds of people gave "Wonderful Night" a high score of 8.6 points.

This score is definitely inflated, and it will definitely drop to around 8.4 in the future.

Lu Pingan also knew the reasons for such inflated heights. One was the novel experience of new technology, and the other was the contrast of peers.

But anyway, this is enough to show that the audience loves it.

Of course, there are also people who give bad reviews.

Some say they don't respect history, and some say there are bugs in the plot and so on.

Fortunately, overall, the praise is mostly.

And as long as you are good enough, only great Confucianism can identify scriptures for you.

Some of the current bad reviews, there are more or less people with different opinions.

In fact, Lu Pingan didn't particularly care about these bad reviews.

After all, there is no such thing as a movie without bad reviews, right?

At 12 o'clock in the evening, China Film Group sent a statistical message.

The box office of "Wonderful Night" in the first three days was 5300 million!
Less than House of Flying Daggers, but for a reason.

It's currently in its third week of release for House of Flying Daggers.

Although the two-week protection period has passed, there are still a lot of films scheduled.

At present, the overall lineup of films on the market is probably 40% each of "Wonderful Night" and "House of Flying Daggers".

You must know that when "House of Flying Daggers" was first released, it accounted for 80% alone!
So the number of films was reduced by half, but the box office in the first three days was only a few million behind.

Many media already know about it.

Over time, Wonder Night will be unstoppable!

Sure enough, another four days later.

"Wonderful Night" was released for a whole week, and the box office came to 1.22 million.

And "House of Flying Daggers" announced that it was only 1.2 million.

1.2 million in three weeks, looks good.

But "House of Flying Daggers" had 6000 million in the first three days!
It can be said that "House of Flying Daggers" has suffered a precipitous defeat.

And "Wonderful Night" surpassed the three weeks of "House of Flying Daggers" in just one week, a complete victory!
And "Fantastic Night" is at least three weeks away.

What kind of box office height can be achieved in the future? An authoritative media has given a figure: 2.2 million!
This number is conservative, but makes sense.

The first is piracy.

At present, "Wonderful Night" has been released for a week, and there are already pirated copies on the market. Just like "House of Flying Daggers" a few weeks ago, this will cause a certain loss to the box office potential.

Secondly, the opening of the Olympic Games will be a week later, and when the time comes to compete with "Wonderful Night" for the audience, there will be an extra small screen.

It also loses some of its box office potential.

Therefore, the number of 2.2 million given has also been recognized by most people in the country.

But even so, 2.2 million is already an extremely high number, surpassing "Source Code".

Ping An holds two films with a box office of over 2 million.

The No.1 commercial film director in China is well deserved.

Just when many people in the industry were envious and jealous, our old opponent Zhang Weiping couldn't sit still.

From his point of view, I can't do it anymore, but you don't want to have such a good time.

So a few days later, Lu Pingan received a message.

Zhang Weiping asked for film protection!
Who cares about him!
Lu Ping'an will never agree, and other theaters will rarely agree.

Zhang Weiping still didn't understand the situation, thinking that he was very good.

In less than a day, Lu Pingan received another message.

"It's really stealing the box office?!"

Lu Pingan couldn't help laughing.

He found Zhang Weiping really interesting.

He really can do anything.

The point is that this kind of thing can still be done on his head.

You know, Lu Ping'an is also the theater owner now!

Fortunately, as someone who has experienced the whole world, Lu Ping'an has already guarded against such a move.

In Mingli, there are 16 of his planetary cinemas, but these are not his cinemas publicly. Apart from these, there are more than 30 cinemas that have not been renamed in secret.

In addition to this, he also bought shares in two theaters in the name of two companies, and outsiders did not know that he was the shareholder.

In addition, more than 400 part-time investigators were scattered.

While investigating the film's word-of-mouth, they will pay attention to the ticket sales situation along the way.

Although it is not easy to know the first signs of trouble in the market.

But as long as you do things like stealing box office, I will know, it is nothing more than the length of time.

So less than two days after Zhang Weiping's plan was implemented, Lu Pingan received the news.

What more is there to say.

Throw it directly to Zhuo Wei and Feng Ke, let them attract traffic!
So that night, a surprising piece of news appeared on the Internet.

""House of Flying Daggers" stole the box office, there are pictures and the truth!"

What was reported in the news was strange things that happened to at least ten netizens across the country.

Someone watched a movie and bought a ticket for "A Wonderful Night", but the result was a ticket for "House of Flying Daggers".

The author checks the box office data again.

Sure enough, in the past two days, the box office of "House of Flying Daggers" has risen against the trend, while the box office of "Wonderful Night" has dropped significantly.

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Lu Pingan immediately went into a rage.

United Han Sanpin directly pressured Zhang Weiping to explain.

Lu Pingan was also interviewed by the media, denouncing this disgusting behavior.

"If you don't stop him today and let him receive the punishment he deserves, will there be a fair environment in the industry in the future?"

This kind of words can most be recognized by the rest of the colleagues.

On the bright side, they all said: You don't talk about Wude, a poop spoils a pot of porridge, how will we drink it in the future?
The top also attaches great importance to it.

This period is when the film market is booming.

Doing this, isn't it digging the roots!
For a while, various media followed up with reports.

Lao Mouzi and Zhang Weiping immediately fell into the whirlpool of public opinion.

Word of mouth fell to the bottom again.

Zhang Weiping probably never expected that such a thing would be dug up so soon.

But thinking about it now is meaningless, the most important thing is to deny it.

How can such a thing be admitted?
But soon, Zhang Weiping realized that without Lao Mouzi, he was really nothing.

You know, Lao Mouzi is under protection now.

The Athens Olympics are about to begin.

You, Zhang Weiping, took it upon yourself to make our Olympic director's reputation like this, you are very brave!
The boss is not happy, and Lao Mouzi is not happy either.

He handed over the movie to Zhang Weiping, and now he made it like this.

No wonder Lao Mouzi is happy!

As a result, it is said that an unprecedented quarrel broke out between the two.

Is not really do not know.

Only two days later, Han Sanpin told Lu Pingan: The new picture was warned, and the relevant theaters were fined. As compensation, the filming of "Wonderful Night" received more support. In addition, the above is studying the cancellation and postponement of "House of Flying Daggers" .

Han Sanpin said that there is a high probability that there is no way to postpone it.

After all, Zhang Weiping has done too much in the new picture this time!

Lu Pingan nodded to express his understanding.

It's good to be able to do that.

After all, Lao Mouzi was under protection.

And it doesn't involve any laws, so it's not very easy to do.

Zhang Weiping also thought so.

Small setbacks are not to be feared.

When the old Mouzi Athens returns with a good reputation, the new picture will still be beautiful.

In this regard, Lu Pingan can only wish him good luck.

Then turn around and move on to the next thing.

After stealing the box office incident.

Although the film schedule of "Wonderful Night" has increased a lot.

But piracy is also a growing problem.

Movies are booming, and the demand in the disc market is also growing.

After all, it costs more than 20 yuan to watch a movie, and the disc is only 6 yuan.

It did have a big impact on the box office.

But fortunately, "Wonderful Night" still has a magic needle, and that is the "3D" version.

If you want to watch 3D, you can only go to the cinema.

The ticket price for 3D movies starts at 50 yuan!

At present, 3D viewing is still in short supply.

Lu Pingan immediately added [-] halls.

It is expected to be fully deployed within a week.

After all, there is technology, and this thing is indeed not as difficult to deploy as imagined.

At the same time, Road Ping An also joined forces with disc manufacturers to continue to put pressure on pirates.

In this way, the next box office drop of "Wonderful Night" may not be as large as the market expected.

As for where the final box office will fall.

Lu Pingan himself is also very curious. (End of this chapter)
