China Entertainment Anchor

Chapter 663: Hot Promotion

In the past, the audience took the actions for granted, but now few people can do them.

Before answering the question, Liu Yifei said: "I would like to add to what Director Zhang Yang said, I almost never used a stuntman in my previous action scenes.

I am serious about acting. Among all types of films, I am the most confident in my fighting scenes.

As for making action movies, that's not my decision. Sometimes my family won't let me make them, so I have to take care of their feelings. "

Liu Yifei's words are truly both brilliant and Versailles. She has won Best Actress at two of the three major European film festivals, but now she says that she is most confident in acting.

As for the last sentence, it sounds very ordinary, but it always seems like giving them dog food, but they have no evidence.

She only mentioned her family, but didn't say who it was.

But overall, this is still the Liu Yifei they are familiar with.

Xinlang Entertainment: Director Zhang Yang, what are your expectations for the box office of this movie.

Zhang Yang: Of course, the more the better, preferably more than "Manslaughter".

Everyone vomited when they heard Zhang Yang's words. Previously, he said that "Extreme Career" would surpass "Manslaughter" and now he said that he would surpass "Manslaughter". This is a way to deal with it, right?

But who asked Zhang Yang to shoot this movie? Others said there would be problems, but he just said it casually.

After a few questions, the premiere ended. Since there were a lot of interactions today, it was already past 8pm. Zhang Yang just exchanged greetings with them and went home.

The next day, December 12th, "Extreme Escape" is officially released on Thursday. Zhang Yang's plan is to warm up the show on Thursday so that the box office will be full in the last three days of the first weekend.

But even if luck comes, it can’t be stopped!

On this day, news came from across the ocean. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced the nomination list for the 2016 American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards.

I will not go into details about the rest that are not relevant. Among them, the movies "Super New Testament", "Priest Club", "The Fencer", "Liu Yifei Born in 82" and "Son of Saul" compete for the best foreign language film.

Zhang Yang was having breakfast when he saw the news at home early in the morning.

He couldn't help but smile and said: "What is this? When times come, heaven and earth all work together. God helps those who help themselves. God is helping!"

"Didn't you arrange it on purpose?" Liu Yifei asked a little uncertainly from the side.

"It's more reliable for me to arrange for Europe's top three. How much does it cost to arrange a Golden Globe Award?" Zhang Yang analyzed.

"But this time for our movie, it's not a three-day opening weekend, but a four-day opening weekend, and more." Zhang Yang thought of something as he spoke. Just stop eating and take out your phone.

As soon as he saw that December 12th was a Wednesday, he said to Liu Yifei and Liu's mother: "The 16th is a Wednesday again, so next Thursday we will have a lot of popularity. This means we will have four days of box office sales in two consecutive weeks." break out."

The more Zhang Yang thought about it, the more he said with interest: "It seems that the box office estimate of a little more than 25 billion at that time might be a bit conservative.

I don’t think there is any problem with 30 billion domestically. Even if it is a little more, it will be enough. "

After listening to Zhang Yang's analysis, Liu Yifei couldn't help but ask: "How many can there be?"

"No matter how specific it is, I can't guess."

Mother Liu looked at the two people who were having a heated discussion and reminded them: "The reason why you are not going to promote today is to change your place of residence. Let's go to Shunyi as soon as possible!"

Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei glanced at Liu's mother together, and then started eating breakfast together.

Even though it's a moving house, I actually don't have much to bring with me. Basically everything is on both sides.

Everyone packed up briefly, their assistants took the luggage, and Liu Yifei held the child and set off.

After settling down in Shunyi, Liu Yifei suddenly thought that she would go out to promote again from tomorrow. She complained to Zhang Yang in the room: "If I had known, I would have asked my mother to come over first."

"Just get used to the environment again." Zhang Yang comforted.

The happiest thing about arriving here is actually Yiyi. The small amusement park here is much larger than the one in the courtyard, and the little ones have a lot of fun playing in it.

Today, domestic news about "Extreme Escape" is endless. Zhang Yang gave away a drone again at the premiere. This is nothing. It has happened before in Beijing Sports, and this time Zhang Yang's water balance is pretty good. flat,

There are 23 aircraft on one side and 24 aircraft on the other side. As for the 23 aircraft of Jingti, aren’t they brand new? Maybe some people still like things that are not brand new.

Liu Yifei once again proved that her interview skills are unparalleled, while Zhang Yang only scratched the surface.

Zhang Yang's statement about holding a wedding also aroused many people's expectations.

Also, the classmate Fei Zhiguan from Nortel became famous, and so did his analysis. This makes "Extreme Escape" even more popular. Many people lament that the director of an art film is a director of an art film.

In addition, a movie by Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei was shortlisted for the Golden Globe Award, and the movie BUFF stack is almost full.

The next day, Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei set off again to Chang'an for promotion. On the plane, Zhang Yang's assistant told Zhang Yang about the movie.

The current competitors of Zhang Yang's films are "Heartbeat", "Unbelievable", "The Thief" and "The Master".

"Pumping Heart" stars Dami Yang and Feng Feng. It can be said to be a fan movie. It took in more than 3 million at the box office in the first four days of its release on the 9800rd, and then started to fall off a cliff.

Yesterday, they only had 7% of the scheduled films and took over 300 million at the box office.

"Unbelievable" starring Wang Baobao, Xiao Shen Yang, and Xiao Peng was released on the 4th and took in more than 5000 million at the box office in the first three days in the first weekend. The subsequent decline is normal, but the movie did not sell well, and only 7% of the schedule was released yesterday. It took in more than 300 million yuan at the box office.

On the other hand, the imported film "Bad Thief" was also released on the 4th and took in more than 7600 million yuan at the box office in its first three days. Yesterday, he was given 10% of the film schedule, and it finally took over 800 million at the box office.

On the contrary, "Brother", a movie that was just released yesterday, was only given 7% of the film schedule and took over 400 million at the box office.

Finally, Zhang Yang's movie "Extreme Escape" received 62% of the screenings on the first day and took in a box office of 2.3 million. Accounting for 89% of the entire movie market.

You must know that the entire domestic movie box office was just shy of 6000 million the day before, but today it was just shy of 2.6 million, an increase of million.

When Liu Yifei saw the box office, she said to Zhang Yang uncertainly: "It was 2.3 million on Thursday, so it will be about 5 million on Saturday and Sunday?" The assistant glanced at the boss's wife secretly. He felt that the boss's wife was thinking the same thing as her. beautiful.

"You can't analyze it this way, and add tens of millions at most. The popularity of our movie yesterday was not small, but it can't be equal to the weekend, but can also be equal to Friday." Zhang Yang analyzed.

Five hundred million? Zhang Yang looked at Liu Yifei and thought that she really dared to think.

After listening to Zhang Yang's analysis, Liu Yifei secretly stuck out her tongue at him.

In the blink of an eye, the 14th came and the entire weekend passed. During this period, 11 new movies were released on the 7th and 12 new movies were released on the 2th. As expected, they all became cannon fodder.

Zhang Yang's "Extreme Escape" earned 2.3 million, 2.7 million, 3.5 million, and 3.1 million respectively in four days. The box office in four days was 11.6 billion.

It broke one billion in four days, and specifically it was one step closer than the previous "Manslaughter".

Previously, the fastest domestic movie to hit 10 billion was "Manslaughter" with 10.6 billion in five days. Now "Escape" has reached 11.6 billion in just four days.

The number of days was reduced by one day, but the box office was still 100 million more. The industry was speechless.

This time in "Extreme Escape", Zhang Yang's family is eating alone, who will cheer him up if nothing happens?

There will still be a chance. China Film Group, the distributor of the movie, will make a lot of money this time. The current online box office estimate for the movie is 31 billion.

If there are really so many, they will probably make tens of millions this time, and this is the minimum standard they issued.

If I had the highest standards, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to earn more than 200 million. After contacting and communicating with Zhang Yang, they issued an announcement on the bib.

Weiying Times and Meiji, both distributed by Lianhe, have also made announcements, not only on their own apps, but also on platforms such as Bibo.

In fact, the real-time box office of movies can now be viewed on the APP, but many people have not developed the habit yet, so it is still necessary to make an announcement.

The movie box office of "Extreme Escape" has reached this point. What is needed to achieve better results is a kind of momentum, a kind of momentum that seems to be left behind if you don't watch it.

There is a certain lag in the creation of this kind of thing by oneself, but the scarf entertainment is currently in Zhang Yang's hands.

Zhang Yang didn't ask Secretary Zhou to increase the popularity. He just asked him to bring up more movie-related topics to make the popularity spread faster.

Just when these announcements were issued, Zhang Yang, Liu Yifei and their entourage fled the mountain city.

The thing is like this, Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei came to a Wanda Cinema in Shancheng for an event today.

It turns out that the theater manager here gave a warning in advance, and this warning foretold trouble.

When Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei arrived, the entire Wanda Plaza was crowded with people.

The people waiting saw Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei, and the crowd moved toward them, shouting.

Zhang Yang looked at the theater manager in front of him speechlessly and asked: "Don't you guys know how to learn from the mistakes of Liu Tianwang and Fan Xiaopang?

Ye Zhu called me and asked me to come and answer your questions. This is how you arranged it. What should I do if there is an accident? "

The events that Liu Tianwang and Fan Xiaopang attended in Shancheng were both overcrowded and canceled, and the same problem actually occurred this time. What Zhang Yang is most afraid of is that if there is a tower stepping incident, it will have a huge impact.

The theater manager was also complaining in his heart. I heard that the activities of Liu Tianwang and Fan Xiaopang were notified three days in advance, and the activities took a while to be full.

Now that Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei were coming to promote, they made the announcement one day in advance, and since it was Monday again, they thought they could hold it safely.

Liu Yifei also frowned and said, "Why don't you bring a loudspeaker over here, and we'll have a few words with them and then leave."

She felt that since the fans were here, it would be better to communicate with them.

"No, please don't." The theater manager quickly stopped him. Liu Yifei shouted loudly at this time, and the crowd became even more commotion.

"You make an announcement yourself, explain the situation, and then say we are leaving." Zhang Yang suggested.

"Okay, I'll come right away." The theater manager readily agreed.

Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei entered a lounge under the arrangements of their assistants and on-site security guards.

"What is this all about? From now on we can only airborne propaganda." Zhang Yang said helplessly.

"I'm still too angry. It's all my fault." Liu Yifei said helplessly.

The two assistants looked at their Versailles and were convinced.

They waited in this lounge for more than an hour before the theater manager walked in.

"Nothing happened, right?" Zhang Yang asked quickly after he came in.

"Don't worry, Director Zhang, the crowd dispersed safely."

Zhang Yang felt relieved after hearing this.

At this time, the theater manager boldly proposed: "Director Zhang, otherwise the event will continue."

This time Zhang Yang and his group all stared at him, wondering what a bad idea this was.

Zhang Yang adjusted his mood and said, "Let's forget it this time! Let's leave first."

Zhang Yang and the others came all the way to the mountain city this time but ended up running away, which was really disappointing.

The theater manager saw that the popularity he had obtained was gone and there was nothing he could do. He didn't dare to offend Zhang Yang, and he couldn't afford to offend him.

Zhang Yang and his party took a short rest in the mountain city and then went to Hui Province. They will do some publicity there tomorrow and then they can head to Zhejiang Province.
