Chapter 713 Mainland’s Lunar New Year Festival in 2015

Longbow Film and Television City.

When Zhang Nan returned to the mainland again, the screening of "Charlotte Trouble" in the mainland had already been stopped.

Even the already fragile global screening trend of "Charlotte" ended prematurely due to the popularity of "Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens".

finally.

[Charlotte Troubles] reported a box office of 22.4 billion yuan in the mainland, temporarily ranking second in the 2015 annual domestic box office rankings.

It is below the box office of "Monster Hunt" with a box office of 24.36 billion yuan, and above the box office of "囧 in Hong Kong" with a box office of 14.23 billion yuan.

If nothing else goes wrong, "Charlotte's Trouble" will also become the runner-up in the domestic film box office of mainland film and television in 2015.

If the overseas box office of "Charlotte" is included, then "Charlotte" will undoubtedly become the mainland box office champion in 2015.

Because "Charlotte Trouble" rode on the popularity of Mr. Zhang Nan's 1.22 billion, it directly accumulated 7.6 million U.S. dollars in box office overseas. If converted into RMB, it would be almost million RMB.

Tell the truth.

Rounding it off, the box office of "The Secret of the Dragon" in the second week is almost over 100 million per day, which directly makes the Chinese and Guangxian Pictures, who originally wanted to wait, unable to sit still.

"The Secret of the Dragon" also lived up to the expectations of Wanda Pictures, with a box office of 855.49 million yuan in the zero-hour screening, and a direct box office of 1.61 million yuan on the first day and Friday.

And the fire did not burn out after three days, but stabilized.

"The Secret of the Dragon" grossed RMB 5.99 million at the box office in its first week.

However, this time "Lao Pao'er" is not directed by Feng Xiaogang, but starred by Feng Xiaogang, and the director is replaced by Guan Hu.

Wanda Pictures took the lead in launching the charge for the Lunar New Year movies.

It can be said that the three major elements of idols, comedy, and beauties have been gathered together to create a movie called "Dragon Hunting".

On the Chinese side, it's naturally Feng Xiaogang's work - [Lao Pao'er].

It ignited the first fire of the Lunar New Year stalls in 2015 with great vigor.

Among them, Zhang Nan can almost get a share of more than one billion yuan in income.

finally.

So May 12th.

then……

The box office on Monday of the following week was RMB 9769.55 million, the box office of Tuesday of the following week was RMB 8383.3 million, and the box office of Wednesday of the following week was RMB 7336.01 million.

In other words, the total global box office of "Charlotte Troubles" has reached 3 billion yuan.

The mainland film and television industry is looking at this year's summer and autumn movies with such great momentum, and their expectations for the Lunar New Year movie are even higher.

It will be a wholly-owned producer, and director Wu Ershan, who previously directed the 2012 "Painted Skin 7.62" with a box office of 2 million yuan, will be brought in.

Then there was the box office of 2.26 million yuan on Saturday the next day, and the box office of 2.03 million yuan on Sunday on the third day.

So on December 12, Thursday, which was not yet Friday, the two companies directly released new films prepared for the Lunar New Year.

At the same time, it also brings together veteran niche actor Chen Kun, popular comedy superstar Huang Bo and crooked artist Shu Qi.

From the narrative style of this movie [Lao Pao'er], we can see that there is definitely something wrong with Guan Hu's butt, not to mention how crooked it is.

Because the movie tells the story of an old ruffian who was in trouble, couldn't borrow money, and couldn't pretend to be a rich second-generation man, Xiao Wu, and finally made a snitch with a sense of justice.

This angle is too tricky. Moreover, the biggest impression that Zhang Nan had on watching the whole movie in his previous life was that the old Pao played by Feng Xiaogang charged behind the still charming Xu Jing.

to be frank.

Zhang Nan felt that the reason why Feng Xiaogang was willing to step down from the director's position and become the leading actor was to shoot this scene.

Then this film, starring Xiao Wu, the well-known comedy director Feng Xiaogang and currently one of the top traffickers in the mainland, finally took in a box office of 5500.97 million yuan on the first day.

This score is not high compared with "The Secret of the Dragon", but the entire "Lao Pao Er" is not directed by Feng Xiaogang, but by Guan Hu, a director who has no major hits in the field of commercial films.

So overall, it's okay. After all, it's under the pressure of the box office trend of "The Secret of the Dragon" in the second week.

And on the day of the premiere of "Lao Pao Er", Deng Chao, who has gained huge popularity through the running man variety show, will be releasing another self-directed and self-starred comedy-"Villain Angel" simultaneously.

If the narrative angle of Guan Hu's "Lao Pao'er" is a bit wrong, then this "Villain Angel" in Super League is a completely vulgar box-office fraud movie, even worse than a shitty funny movie. One level lower.

Because there’s not even shit or shit in this [Villain Angel], it’s all embarrassing, self-righteous jokes.

then……

The box office on the first day was 1.52 million yuan.

Sometimes you have to admit that the things that capital chases often bring huge benefits.

Why is it that the current mainland entertainment industry has been frantically chasing traffic niche actors since 2014? Projects by various major directors have begun to include traffic niche actors.

The reason is very simple, traffic can really make money!
This wave of reaching the Super League has completely proved this point.

With the huge popularity of the running man variety show, and with his wife filming the extremely vulgar "Villain Angel", he can still make money like this.

Of course.

The box office of movies that are hyped up by this kind of traffic is relatively bluffing at the beginning, but will soon weaken in the future.

This is true.

"Villain Angel", which started with a first-day box office of just over 10 million RMB less than "The Secret of the Dragon", ended up with a lower box office than "Lao Pao Er", which opened with a box office of over 50 million RMB. .

It fell directly to the position of 6.48 million yuan, and it did not even enter the top ten box office rankings of domestic films in the mainland in 2015.

Most importantly.

The last "Breakup Master" and this time's "Villain Angel" have completely ruined the reputation of the movies that Deng Chao has accumulated over the years.

In the original time and space, Deng Chao relied on the 33.91 billion yuan box office of Zhou Xingxing's "Mermaid", the 10.46 billion yuan box office of Han Han's "Riding the Wind and Waves", and the 8.78 million yuan box office of Zhang Yimou's "Movie", as well as his own hardships. The box office of "Galaxy Tutorial" was RMB 8.78 million.

It barely managed to win back some of the audience's impression points.

But that's it.

Finally, "China Ping Pong: The Last Strike", which he directed and starred in in 2023, was used by the audience as a box office result of just over million yuan, announcing that its box office appeal in the mainland film and television industry has completely dissipated.

You know, that’s the box office of 100 million yuan during the Spring Festival!
And the current situation.

[Mermaid] has been replaced by Hu Ge and Da Tiantian under the influence of Zhang Nan.

And without the huge success of "Mermaid", it is still open to question whether Han Han will find Deng Chao to star in "Riding the Wind and Waves".

Because when it comes to selecting actors, Han Han, a writer-director who came from across the industry, is particularly good at following trends.

We have always selected films that have a good reputation among audiences and have box office appeal.
