Rebirth 96: Begin the life of a monster from kindergarten

Chapter 154 Box Office Crazy
Zhang and his party had a dream.

In the dream, he punched the Japanese country, kicked the stick, whipped him five times with lightning, and beat the Japanese country until the ugly country knelt down and begged for mercy.

Just as I was secretly enjoying myself, there was a huge roar all around.

He opened his eyes and realized that the movie had ended and the audience had begun to leave.

Have you slept for so long? Obviously the cool movie has just begun!
"Wake up!" Hu Weishi smiled.

Zhang Yixing laughed, "Why didn't you wake me up?"

"Look at you sleeping soundly. I don't know what you were dreaming about. You are smiling so happily!"

Zhang Yixing laughed and said: "I dreamed that I beat up my little boy!"

"I hate my little life so much, I even dream about it!"

"That's not the case!"

Zhang Yixing nodded, "Just like many Chinese people, although he drives a Japanese car and watches Ugly movies, if he were really given a hundred atomic bombs, he would drop them all on the Ugly Japanese land without hesitation! "

Hu Weishi saw Zhang and his entourage looking worried and reminded: "Okay, wipe your face quickly, there will be a press conference later!"

"Yeah, I know!"

……

"This is a Chinese Kung Fu story with animals as the protagonists. Flying over walls, acupuncture magic, tiger fist, snake fist, monkey fist, crane fist, and mantis fist. These familiar moves are all reminiscent of Chinese martial arts movies. Even You can also see a tribute to Bruce Lee in there.”

"As long as you have a dream and work hard to realize it, everyone is a hero!"

"This is a movie full of laughter and tears. The gorgeous martial arts movements and the beautiful Chinese ink landscapes all add countless brilliance to this animation! Panda Po, as a familiar image, has been successfully brought to the big screen. !”

"There is no magical secret in the Dragon Scroll. The real power is to believe in yourself and strive for self-improvement!"

"Following "Lotus Lantern", domestic animated films finally produce another masterpiece!"

After watching the movie, film critics from various media outlets have given their own evaluations. Among the rave reviews, the few negative comments can be ignored for the time being.

As a latecomer, Zhang Yixing will certainly not ignore the influence of the navy, and his writers have also turned into film critics to cheer for the film.

As of 23: on the day of screening.

The first-day box office in Beijing was 120 million yuan.

The first-day box office of Magic City was 110 million yuan.

The first-day box office of Fishing Village was 90 yuan.

The box office of Quancheng on the first day was 90 yuan.

After seeing the box office results of Quancheng, Zhang and his party were quite surprised. They did not expect that this small city would actually contribute the same box office as the fishing village.

On the second day, Hu Weishi finally got the first-day box office data of "Kung Fu Panda".

650 yuan.

That's lower than the year's highest record of 700 million set by "Initial D."

However, when the industry got the data, it was already in an uproar.

This is a fucking cartoon.

"Initial D" stars Zhou Xiaotian, who is at the height of his popularity, and has several popular actors including Edison Chen and Yu Wenle in the cast. It has already been a hot topic even before its release.

Although "Kung Fu Panda" has also carried out intensive publicity and Zhang Yixing himself is also very well-known, after all, this is not a live-action movie starring Zhang Yixing. And, it’s Friday!

Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, when many parents are on holiday, more families will enter the cinema.

Zhang Yixing once held the title of "Fairy Tale King" like Zheng Yuanji, and "Ultimate Fantasy" was once praised by many parents as the best fairy tale book. Its influence among the parent group cannot be underestimated.

Sure enough, on the second day after the movie was released, the box office performance increased and reached 800 million.

Sunday saw its highest number, exceeding 1000 million.

Although there is a high probability that there will be no such peak results in the future, everyone at DreamWeaver Culture Company still breathed a sigh of relief.

Even excluding various expenses such as the share of each theater chain and the taxes paid to the foundation, the company still has an income of nearly 10 million yuan.

Except for "Madagascar" in the middle of the month, there will be no other strong competitors in the next schedule. As long as there is no waterfall decline, the cost can be recovered even in China.

"Kung Fu Panda" is also being released overseas, plus DVD, and the company's series of "Kung Fu Panda" derivative products will also make money, so this movie is bound to make money.

On July 7, Zhou Xingguo, who was in Ugly Country, sent back a message: Li Wen's "See You Again" single from her album topped the Billboard Hot 5 Singles Chart in Ugly Country.

Li Wen, who was recording "The Voice of China" in Quancheng, also got the news and immediately happily shared it with Zhang and his party.

The song "See You Again" was used by Zhang Yixing as the soundtrack for the sad farewell scene in "Kung Fu Panda". It originally appeared in "Fast and Furious 7". It once topped the music charts in dozens of countries around the world. Now it Equally radiant.

In the evening of that day, the central media, which pursues the mentality of a great power to the extreme, reported the news.

Many companies that were studying Zhang Yixing's movie promotion routine suddenly discovered: Isn't this a replica of the domestic song promotion of "Kung Fu Panda"?
With "Young Chinese Story", "Kung Fu Panda" has gained a lot of attention.

Now this trick is also used in overseas markets.

Damn it’s one trick that can be eaten all over the place!

Following this, the ratings of "The Voice of China" continued to increase, and major advertisers approached Li Wen for endorsements.

Advertisers have even thought of how to introduce Li Wen in their advertisements: International Queen.

These days, it would be embarrassing to introduce a celebrity without adding words such as “king of heaven, queen, queen, international, famous, etc.”

What's more, Li Wen's title of international queen is supported by solid works!

A week later, Zhou Xingguo sent back the news again.

"Kung Fu Panda" had a box office of 2100 million U.S. dollars in its first week in North America. The Japanese box office was not as good as "Initial D" which has a comic fan base, but the Japanese box office plus the Southeast Asian market also had a box office of 2000 million in the first week.

Regarding the box office results in North America, Zhang and his party were a little surprised, but also found it reasonable.

After all, this movie is originally a replica of the previous movie "Kung Fu Panda" from Chou Country. Compared with its predecessor, which had a box office of 6000 million US dollars in the first week of Chou Country alone, its 2100 million US dollars has been greatly reduced.

Just as Chou Guo was interested in Lao Mouzi's "Hero" and Li An's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Chou Guo was very interested in Chinese Kung Fu.

Animated movies do not contain complex factors such as racial discrimination, and are relatively easier to enter foreign markets than live-action movies.

In the previous life, the "Bear Bears" series of movies were spitted on in China, but they were very popular in many foreign countries.

In 2002, with "Hero", Lao Mouzi grossed US$5371 million in Ugly Country and a global box office of 14 billion yuan, establishing his status as a national master.

Later, many directors including Feng Xiaogang tried their best to pursue the film, but they never achieved any outstanding results.

When the overseas box office results of "Kung Fu Panda" were revealed, all domestic film and television companies were dumbfounded.

This is a fucking cartoon!

impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
