Chapter 431 Reaching the World's Weekly Box Office Champion! (The third update is full! Ask monthly ticket 1)

Beijing, the early morning of December 12th.

The second blockbuster movie "Orphan of Zhao" in the summer vacation has officially landed in major cities in China yesterday.

In this first confrontation, everyone is waiting for the box office to see how badly Chen Kai will lose.

That's right, basically no one thinks that Brother Chen Kai's "Orphan of Zhao" can surpass "Edge of Tomorrow", even if it is Brother Chen Kai himself, he has no hope.

Yesterday Friday, "Edge of Tomorrow" has already received a super high box office of 5400 million, breaking the single-day box office record in mainland film history created by "Avatar".

Even if the release of "The Orphan of Zhao" shared a part of the film schedule, "Edge of Tomorrow" still had nearly 68% of the super high-ranked films yesterday.

In stark contrast, "The Orphan of Zhao" has only 26% of the film schedule, which is less than half of "Edge of Tomorrow".

Theaters also want to make money, even if Brother Chen Kai is well-known and well-known, in the face of absolute interests, the theaters cannot make more films.

Unless "The Orphan of Zhao" hits the box office on the first day, at least 2000 million will be taken, otherwise there will be no more films in this lineup.

Brother Chen Kai also held his breath. No one would be reconciled to the fact that the top director only received such a treatment.

Coupled with the fact that it is frequently compared by the media, some people even think that the box office of "The Orphan of Zhao" will not exceed [-] million.

Brother Chen Kai needs an excellent data to justify himself and prove his ability as a great director.

However, when the box office data was received in the early hours of the morning, Brother Chen Kai was speechless.

"The Orphan of Zhao" only received 1300 million on the first day of its release. This was still a Saturday, and the box office was not as good as expected.

Brother Chen Kai stared at the screen with a face full of disappointment, speechless for a long time.

He couldn't figure out why the box office was so low.

Four or five years ago, the box office on the first day was fairly normal, but now first-line directors such as Xu Ke and Chen Kexin also have more than 2000 million on the first day, and even the two new directors Xu Zheng and Wu Ershan have a box office of more than 3000 million. .

Even Teng Huatao's first movie, which was transformed from a TV series, was a box office hit.

Brother Chen Kai found that he could not understand this era, nor did he understand the current audience, what kind of movie they want to see.

He didn't even pay attention to the box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" yesterday, nor did he pay attention to the upcoming storm, and fell into deep self-doubt.

"The Orphan of Zhao" was only slightly better than "Mei Lanfang" on the first day, but the latter is a biographical film, and the audience is not at the same level at all.

The reputation of "Mei Lanfang" is also quite good, and the final box office successfully exceeded [-] million.

However, the reputation of "The Orphan of Zhao" is not good, and there will be more and more movies released later, so the final box office may not be higher than that of "Mei Lanfang".

If things go wrong, he will become the biggest loser in the Lunar New Year file!

Early in the morning, various media reported the box office comparison between "Edge of Tomorrow" and "Orphan of Zhao", and almost all the guns were aimed at Brother Chen Kai.

""Edge of Tomorrow" set another record, grossing 5900 million box office on Saturday, breaking the single-day box office record in film history set just yesterday!"

""The Orphan of Zhao" got off to a bad start. The box office on the first day was only 1300 million, and the ratings of major professional websites also dropped again and again."

""Edge of Tomorrow" set a record of 1.61 million in three days, plus the box office of 7600 million, the total box office is as high as 2.37 million!"

""Edge of Tomorrow" continues to lead the film market in December, rampaging into the Lunar New Year file!"

"Destroy the dead, who can stop "Edge of Tomorrow"?"

"Brother Chen Kai stepped down from the altar, 1300 million in a single day is still not as good as "Di Renjie: The Empire of Heaven"!"

Some media that have a good relationship with Brother Chen Kai, or have cooperation with Specter, did not use a sharp tone when reporting.

But other media didn't care so much, and started to satirize and criticize directly.

"5900:1300, Tang An's rhetoric may turn out to be empty words, the single-day box office of "The Orphan of Zhao" reached 22% of the box office of "Edge of Tomorrow"."

This is blatant irony. Tang An said that the box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" will exceed five times that of "Orphan of Zhao". This 5% is more than one-fifth, but no one will complain about Tang An.

Such news can be seen everywhere, and the self-media on the Internet also continue to belittle Chen Kaige to develop fans and expand his reputation.

Tang An's fans are also more confident now, and they have exploded with greater fighting power.

"The first day of "Orphan of Zhao" reached 1300 million, which is more than a quarter of the 4800 million first day of "Edge of Tomorrow".

"Brother Chen Kai successfully prevented "Edge of Tomorrow" from surpassing 6000 million in a single day, which is only 100 million short. Tang An's success fell short."

"The first-day box office of 1300 million is estimated to be more than 1 million. I don't know what qualifications Chen Kai has to hate Tang An."

"'Edge of Tomorrow' will definitely win the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Award next year. I wonder if Brother Chen Kai will dare to say anything then."

"Brother Chen Kai is getting old, so his fans shouldn't cling to a "Farewell My Concubine". Is it possible that a movie can last a lifetime?"

"The front is pretty good, but once you get to the back, you start to pretend to be aggressive, talking about something and nothing, and pretending to express something. God knows what you want to express."

For "The Orphan of Zhao" to lose first, the other producers are not surprised, not to mention the sorrow of the rabbit and the fox.

"'Edge of Tomorrow' is still going up, it seems that 'Orphan of Zhao' has no impact at all."

Brother Huayi, Wang Zhongjun said with some regret.

"The Orphan of Zhao" split part of the lineup, and the box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" is still rising steadily, on the contrary, the attendance rate is still a little higher.

"Zhonglei, you should arrange more people to help them, at least let the market share of "Edge of Tomorrow" decrease a bit." Wang Zhongjun said to Wang Zhonglei.

The box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" was too crazy, approaching 6000 million in a single day, which made him tremble with fear.

Although "If You Are the One 2" is still released 18 days later, Wang Zhongjun is no longer as calm as he was two days ago.

The madness of "Avatar" is still vivid in you, and the box office in the first week is not as good as "Edge of Tomorrow".

What if, what if the box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" is as strong as that of "Avatar", and when "If You Are the One 2" can still get more than 1 million box office in a week when it is released, then the impact will be great.

Now he can only help Brother Chen Kai and Jiang Wen, at least he can stop "Edge of Tomorrow".

And the navy can't stop, even if the effect is minimal, it must continue to blackmail.

"If You Are the One 2" has recovered 6000 to [-] million costs from the advertising alone, and it is almost making money lying down. Wang Zhongjun is not afraid of spending money, and he can earn back what he spends.

On December 12, the box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" dropped slightly, with a single daily receipt of 6 million. The total box office in the 5300 days of its release was as high as 4 million, with an average of more than 2.14 million per day.

Coupled with the 7600 million previously screened, the total box office reached a staggering 2.9 million!
This year, there are not many domestic movies with a total box office that has reached this figure.

Up to now, Tang An's goal of 10 billion is no longer a fantasy. As long as the trend is stable, there is a high probability of breaking 10 billion.

It didn't take long for the overseas box office to spread back to China, and everyone found that when they focused their attention on China, "Edge of Tomorrow" also achieved quite good results overseas.

Released in North America for 3 days, the box office in the first weekend was as high as 1120 million U.S. dollars, and ranked No.3 in the box office of the week, overwhelming all Hollywood movies.

Not only in North America, but also in the Southeast Asian market and European market, it has also achieved good box office.

Not only does it dominate domestically, but also counts the box office in other overseas regions, "Edge of Tomorrow" also tops the weekly box office champion in the global film market!
