Re-releases of movies generally do not trigger a movie-going craze, let alone drive much box office.

This is almost the consensus of the industry, so theater managers are not optimistic about the 3D re-release of "Titanic".

What kind of splash can a movie made 15 years ago be re-released?

The most promising films in theaters in April are "Battleship" and Cheng Yu'an's "Thieves", which will be released on the 26th.

As a result, the re-screening of the ship slapped everyone in the face.

On the first day, with 35% of the film schedule, Cameron took away 70.77 million at the box office.

"Damn!" Fang Bin, the general manager of Jiahe's theater chain, couldn't understand the box office. "A movie from 15 years ago can still sell like this!"

Cheng Yu'an asked him to sit down: "Feelings are priceless."

"Only relying on a sentiment alone to sell 70 million on the first day?" The audience would like to watch him so he would arrange the film, but the arrangement is all about arrangement, but he really didn't understand.

"The appeal of American blockbusters is high. This is the current situation. Take a look at the films of the same period, such as "The Dirty Car" and "Snow in Taipei," and any fool will know which one to choose."

"Sentiment is really useful. What is Titanic? It is a classic love, it is Leonardo at the peak of his appearance, and it is the collective memory that dominated the box office for 13 years. It is difficult to be evoked by this thing.

Blocked."

"What about our "Thieves Alliance"?"

"It has no impact on us. You can arrange the filming of "Titanic" however you want. It's rare to make money in April, so why not make money."

In the first ten days of April, the market was very deserted, and all the films were put on the May Day schedule in the second half of April.

This also allows "Titanic" to almost dominate the market in the middle and early half of the year.

It exceeded 500 million in its first week of release, breaking the record of 390 million in the first week of "Transformers" in 11 years ago, becoming the first domestic film to exceed 500 million in the first week.

The performance of the domestic market is better than that of the North American market. Since its release in North America, "Titanic" has not won the weekly championship. One of the reasons is that North America has "The Hunger Games", "The Three Stooges" and "The Cabin in the Woods" during the same period.

was released, and the box office exceeded "Titanic".

No wonder even the "Hollywood Report" said: "Thanks to the Chinese market."

There is no circumvention system for blockbusters in the domestic market. The major companies all have their sights set on those schedules. If they want to be released, they will rush to release them, and fight to the death. If not, none of them will be released, leaving the cinemas with no films to show.

Of course, theaters are happy to see "Titanic" go crazy, and they make money no matter what movie they show.

Huang Qunfei, general manager of New Film Alliance, said: "According to the current box office trend of "Titanic" and the normal law of decline, its box office is likely to exceed the 1 billion mark."

"At the same time, there is also a question. In the face of "Titanic", do we need to adjust the schedule of the film we release at the end of the month?"

Two weeks after the release of "Titanic", the score officially exceeded 700 million. Did Huang Qunfei really tell him that it would reach 1 billion?

If that is the case, "Titanic 3D" will become the second movie to exceed 1 billion after "Transformers 3" last year.

There is currently no domestic film that can match it.

Fortunately, "Battleship" was released and took away a large part of the film schedule and box office of "Titanic".

But this movie is really bad!

Hollywood may have discovered that "Transformers" could no longer make money, so it changed its approach and started playing Battleship.

This allowed it to earn 100 million at the box office in the first five days.

Although Yuan Yuan has no films that directly compete with "Titanic" and "Battleship", they are also working behind the scenes to study why these two films have such high box office.

First of all, it must be the audience's psychology of watching movies. As I said before, Hollywood spends tens of millions of dollars to produce bad movies. It is quite beautiful to watch the special effects and listen to the sound effects.

Feel something that is not found in domestic films.

But how to put it, we have not experienced the industrial revolution, Chinese people are not generally interested in machinery, and our directors and screenwriters do not have the consciousness to make a mecha movie.

Do you think "Roboman" is bad?

The entry of "Titanic" and "Battleship" made the market full of smoke at the end of the month.

Everyone wants to see how domestic films, represented by "Everyone" (No. 23), "A League of Thieves" (No. 26) and "Killing" (No. 28), can break through the siege of Hollywood blockbusters.

Yang Mi is very nervous now. "A League of Thieves" is about to be released. She plays a very important role in it and is definitely a great heroine.

This is her second role as a movie heroine in "33 Days Later" - she has played mostly eldest and sided heroines in movies and TV series.

If "A League of Thieves" is successful, then she will truly be on the front line and become a movie star.

The agent Zeng's family came over and said, well, she still chose to take Yang Mi with her. This time, Yang Mi didn't go south with her. She couldn't survive in Hong Kong Island and ran back in despair within a year.

Yang Mi resumed cooperation with her.

The Zeng family said: "Don't worry, when did Director Cheng make a mistake?"

"I know, but I'm just nervous. If this movie doesn't succeed, I have to go back to acting in TV series."

"What counts as success?" Zeng asked her.

"Win the Titanic." Yang Mi said loudly.

"My sister, "Titanic" is now worth 800 million! Breaking one billion is basically a sure thing. Defeat it? How dare you speak."

It's not that I don't believe Cheng Yu'an, but "Titanic" is really too powerful. Who would have thought that a re-release of a movie that had been released for 15 years could have such a high box office.

"I forgot to tell you." The Zeng family remembered the business, "Do you know "Little Times"?"

An Xiaofen finally found Yang Mi.

"I don't know." Yang Mi shook his head.

"Let me tell you, "Little Times" is the most popular young adult novel right now. Mr. An of Dasheng Media is working with the company to produce "Little Times"."

The Tseng family gave Yang Mi an interest in "Little Times" and wanted her to play Gu Li.

Yang Mi asked her: "Who is the director?" From the remote experience, she also knew that when choosing a movie, you not only need to choose the script, but also the cast and crew.

"Guo Jingming."

"Him? Does he come to film because he knows how to direct?" Yang Mi has never seen "Little Times", but she knows Guo Jingming and knows that he is very good at attracting troublemakers.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. An Xiaofen found him a seasoned producer and three experienced executive directors."

"Is this still his movie?"

"Whether it is or not, what I'm telling you now is the character Gu Li. This character is really good."

"But Lin Xiao is the protagonist."

"Gu Li has more character and is more outstanding." The Zeng family continued to persuade her, "Shall we leave the company and open a studio next year? If you don't take this time to prepare for the future, what will you do after you leave the company?"

"If I open a studio, I can also take on roles from the company."

Yang Mi's status in the company is now second only to Liu Yifei's, and her career in film and television has blossomed. She just finished filming "Tongque Terrace" this year, playing the role of Lingju, and cooperating with Fa Ge.

The Zeng family was still persevering in persuading Yang Mi to take over "Little Times", saying how popular the novel was, how many copies it had sold, and how many fans Guo Jingming had.

"The movie will definitely be a hit!"

"I will join the cast of "Residence in the Fuchun Mountains" later." Yang Mi finally said it. She was indeed worried about how she would take on the role after leaving the company.

If "Tiny Times" really becomes a hit, it will undoubtedly give it a good start in independent operations.
