China Entertainment started from Nortel 2002

Chapter 303 Cameron’s recommendation
  The lobbies and aisles of major movie theaters are already covered with large and small movie billboards, which already indicates that the spring season will be particularly lively.

Since Li Mu opened up the potential of the Spring Festival stall in 2011, the Spring Festival has become a prime time for military strategists to compete.

Just when Li Mu flew to Hollywood with the crew, the domestic box office box office had already been released, and "Gravity" was far ahead of other movies.

"The zero-point box office of "Gravity" exceeded 1300 million, surpassing the 3 million of "Transformers 1200", setting a new zero-point box office record in mainland film history" - Zhalang Entertainment.

"It broke records just after it was released. "Gravity" may start a record-breaking journey during the Spring Festival!" - NetEase Entertainment.

"Gravity" broke the mainland box office record and became the headlines of major media.

The major film companies were a little numb when they saw this data.

"This appeal is really strong."

Although the domestic side does not pay much attention to the zero point data, it reflects the stickiness of a movie, that is, how many fanatic fans it has.

Some fans come with the actors in the movie, and some fans come with the director.
  "Okay!" Han Sanping was extremely satisfied when he saw this data.

"This is the treatment and influence of the number one business leader in the country. All the media are reporting on it."

Han Jia'v looked at the reports from major media on her mobile phone, and almost all of them were reporting on "Gravity".

"The number one business leader in the country, you are right." After hearing this, Han Sanping thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, it was just that the layout was small.

But then I remembered what Han Jianu had done in Nortel, and she was a little dissatisfied.

"Then you should learn more from your senior brother. Why are you going to the screenwriter all day long?"

Han Jia Nyeo was not conceited at all: "I like it"

"."

At the same time, after "Gravity" was released, there were countless reviews in the media and on the Internet.

And most of them rated it very highly.

In Imperial City, a movie theater owned by Mengying Media, all six ticket sales channels are open for the first time in history, but the long queue to buy tickets still stretches all the way to the door of the cinema.

"Shift changed."

Night shift workers breathed a rare sigh of relief.

"This year is a little harder than last year. I really miss the days before last."

"That's not true. I was able to chat during the night shift the year before last. Last year and this night shift, I basically didn't have time to eat and rest at the beginning, so it was better late at night."

"Come on, there are bonuses. Based on last year, I'm afraid the bonuses will almost catch up with wages this month."

"."

Nowadays, the ticket seller only earns about 2500 yuan. It is good for them that a certain movie has a high box office, which is directly related to the ticket seller's bonus.

Now major theater chains have already recruited and are ready to cope with the overflow phenomenon in the spring season.

At this time last year, many movie theaters suffered a small loss. There were not enough ticket sellers and they could not cope with the huge passenger flow.
  Movies such as "The Second Year of the Lunar New Year" and "The Third Year of the Lunar New Year" have also put on a grand promotional posture, but they were still compressed to the extreme by the huge popularity of "Gravity".

After all, "Gravity" is the most anticipated masterpiece in the mainland film market recently, and its popularity is far beyond that of other films.

"That's the bad thing about releasing it after Director Li."

Lu Zheng said with emotion that he just wanted to share the pie during the Spring Festival. In addition, "Time and Space Rescue" is a hilarious comedy, so in his opinion, it is quite suitable to be released during the Spring Festival.

"Tian Tian, ​​I'm afraid it will be hard for you guys."

Now we can only let Jingtian, Huo Jianhua, Guo Pinchao and others promote more.

"It's okay, Uncle Lu."

Jingtian said calmly.

In just one day, there were more than 1 reviews of "Gravity" from media and film critics.
  On Weibo's hot searches, "Gravity" has always been among the top three, and the words "Spring Festival" are also among the top ten.

On the second day after "Gravity" was released, its first-day box office data was also announced by the media.

"RMB 9300 million! "Gravity" broke the domestic film premiere day box office record!" - Sohu Entertainment reported.

"With 9300 million yuan, "Gravity" won the Japanese crown without any suspense, setting a new record!" - Baidu Entertainment.

"On the first day of its release, "Gravity" broke two box office records in a row!" - NetEase Entertainment.

"Gravity" had a box office of 1300 million yuan at midnight on its premiere day, and a total box office of 9300 million yuan on its premiere day, breaking two box office records in mainland film history!

The first is the zero-point box office record. The previous record holder was "Transformers 1200" with 3 million yuan, but it has now been rewritten by "Gravity".

The second is the domestic film premiere day box office record. The previous record holder was "Transformers 3" which was also released last year with 9100 million yuan!

"The Spring Festival box office has finally kept up with the growth in the number of movie screens."

Many people in the industry have spoken out, finally seeing an increase in box office and screen numbers.

You must know that the number of screens last year was only more than 6300, but now it is more than 9500, an increase of 50%. If the box office cannot keep up, it will be a wasted growth.

The poor box office performance of the Lunar New Year movie made everyone in the industry a little worried. Fortunately, the Spring Festival movie gave everyone a shot in the arm.

Just when everyone was immersed in the box office performance of "Gravity", news came from North America.

"Cameron praised the premiere of "Gravity", calling the movie "the best space movie in film history"."

"During the 90 minutes I watched this film, I kept my hand on my mouth. I had to remind myself from time to time not to forget to breathe, but this is not enough to explain how good this film is." - Cameron.

News on the Internet always travels very quickly. “Hahaha, awesome, prepare to do it twice or three times. I think Cameron is right.”

"I haven't seen it yet. I was going to see it, but I ran out of tickets."

"Cameron personally recommended it. It seems that the special effects of this movie also shocked him."

"With such achievements, Mengying Media didn't even shout out the slogan of breaking 10 billion. Now I finally understand that box office does not depend on shouting."

"Upstairs, correct answer"

Netizens discussed it lively, and even made fun of the Lunar New Year movie.

These remarks directly added fuel to the fire of the film.

"Gravity", which was already a hit, has become even more popular.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the box office reached 1.02 million, and the single-day box office exceeded 3 million, but it has not yet broken the record of 1.12 million for "Transformers [-]". For the time being, it can only rank second in the domestic single-day box office.

“The record is going to be higher again”

Industry insiders looked at this report card and couldn't help but sigh. In the past, the daily box office reached a peak of 1.12 million, but now it seems that [-] million will not be the end.

For example, the peak box office during the Spring Festival usually occurs between the third and fifth day of the Lunar New Year. Obviously, this is only 1000 million yuan short of the record, which cannot hinder the progress of "Gravity".

Transcendence is only a matter of time, and where we will go is the question that everyone is thinking about.

At the same time, in order to promote "Gravity" in North America, Li Mu took Yu Nan and Matt Damon to talk shows such as "Saturday Night Live" and "Late Night with Tom".

These programs have extremely high ratings in North America, and Li Mu is also a frequent visitor. When a movie is released, he will occasionally go there to watch them.

"Li, I think you would be better as a host."

Matt Damon said, "On the show just now, Li Mu's humorous answer confused the host and kept laughing.

"Hahaha, I still think directing is more suitable for me."

Li Mu smiled and said.

Yu Nan also laughed. This time she followed Li Mu around Hollywood, and she realized how influential Li Mu was here.

"I'm really lucky to be in this movie."

During Yu Nan's North American premiere, she saw the envy of many Hollywood actresses towards her.

Audiences and media in North America spared no effort in praising "Gravity", not to mention Cameron's recommendation.

"Trust me, this will be the best movie of 2012"

"I guarantee that when you stand up after watching "Gravity", the first step you take will be vain! If you don't watch it in 3D, it will be meaningless. It would be better if you can watch it in IMAX."

"Lee has made another great movie. The heroine, Yu Lai, is fantastic, and so is Matt."

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the domestic box office reached 1.13 million, and "Gravity" officially topped the domestic single-day box office.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, with a domestic box office of 1.2 million, "Gravity" once again set a new record.

Domestic reports on "Gravity" have never stopped, because they are always on the way to setting new records.

“Director Li’s movie is too outrageous”

Lu Zheng looked at the unmatched data of "Gravity" and then looked at the first-day box office of "The Rescuers" which was less than 100 million. The box office on the second day was still less than [-] million.

The comparison was a bit hard for him to accept.

The most important thing is that Jingtian was scolded badly.

"I was really blinded by science fiction movies. I couldn't buy "Gravity" originally. I wanted to watch comedy science fiction, but it turned out."

"Please, Jingtian, don't act in bad movies. Last year's one was not enough, so come again this year."

"The thunder is rolling, I feel sorry for my wallet!"

Jingtian looked at the comments online and felt a little sad.

"In the future, we still have to find a big director to shoot."

Lu Zheng discovered that Jingtian could only receive praise when he acted in Li Mu's movies.

These small movies or those made by small directors simply don’t work.

On January 1, "Gravity" has been officially launched in 27 countries including North America, Japan and South Korea.

To the envy of actresses in the industry, Yu Nan has become completely popular in North America.

As the heroine, Yu Nan has attracted the attention of fans in North America with her role as Yu Lai and her superb acting skills.

From her Twitter account, you can see how popular Yu Nan is now.

"It only takes one step to get into Hollywood."

Actresses in the industry looked at Yu Nan's rise to fame in Hollywood, and when they thought about themselves, they couldn't help but feel a little sad.

The main reason is that Li Mu's next movie has been decided, the heroine of "Edge of Tomorrow" has been selected, and the list of roles given does not require other female characters.

Gong Li was the most disappointed at this time, after all, this character was only one step away from her.
