In fact, "The Ancient City" could have achieved better results, but because the film's running time of more than three hours still affected a certain amount of film schedule, it had many fewer scenes than ordinary popular movies. If the film's length had been controlled to two
In about an hour, the total box office of the film can still increase a lot.
But even so, the outstanding box office results are enough to make several major investors smile. As of May 10, the day before the release of "Avengers 3", the box office of "The Ancient City" has reached 3.72 billion, successfully surpassing
3.65 billion "Operation Red Sea" temporarily ranks as the annual box office champion.
Other movies released during the May Day period were crushed to nothing. Except for "The Next of Us" which barely managed to earn more than 800 million at the box office, they are not worth mentioning.
But on May 11th, the good days of "The Greatest City" will come to an end. Marvel Studios' decade-long masterpiece "Avengers 3" is coming. In the past ten years, Marvel movies have been released one after another.
The movie has shaped Marvel's path to glory and attracted a large number of fans all over the world. There are even a large number of Marvel fans in China.
Both Iron Man and Captain America have many fans in China, and fans of the two families even quarreled online because of the conflict between Iron Man and Captain America in "Captain America 3".
It is worth mentioning that many keyboard warriors who usually call this one a foreigner, that one a traitor, and that one who is not Chinese but come to China to make money can’t wait to buy tickets to watch "Avengers 3" as soon as it is released.
I also found an excuse for myself to call the movie without borders.
I don’t know why these people don’t think about movies without borders when they are criticizing Chinese movies and Chinese movie stars. They are acting with double standards and changing their faces faster than anyone else...
In fact, Li Hyuk believes that it is meaningless to boycott this practice. After all, it is impossible to boycott it. It cannot be done. Since people take good pictures, they should take better pictures for everyone to see. Let the quality of the work speak for itself.
right way,
However, it is difficult for Chinese movies to become popular around the world. The reasons are so complex that they could be written into a book. In the final analysis, Oriental or Chinese culture is not popular around the world at all. Chinese culture is not even as good as the island country next door in the world.
.The first Eastern culture that Westerners came into contact with was the two-dimensional animation and games from island countries. On the other hand, in China, except for a few early films that reflected China's poverty and backwardness that won awards abroad, they were not popular at all at other times.
In the past two years, with the growth of a new generation, the country's cultural confidence and the awakening of national consciousness, the Western cultural strategy has become increasingly difficult to use, but there is still no problem in the smooth flow of movies in China.
On May 11, "Avengers 3" scored 387 million in box office in a single day, successfully winning the box office championship of the day. At this time, the box office of "The Ancient City" has dropped to more than 80 million. The previous movie viewing craze has
Too many viewers rushed into the theater. At this time, the box office stamina of "The Ancient City" was obviously insufficient. Professional box office forecasting agencies believed that "The Ancient City" could exceed 4 billion, but it would be difficult to exceed 4.5 billion.
China's good box office performance has made both Marvel and Disney smile, and they can now open champagne to celebrate. At this time, "Avengers 3" has already gone crazy around the world, and local movies everywhere it goes are
They are not opponents, they are all defeated by "Avengers 3". In other words, the island country where superhero movies are not so popular encountered a little trouble, but it is no longer important.
Just when Marvel thought it would create good results in the Chinese market, a heavyweight rival released an unforgettable work in ten years.
It is jointly produced and distributed by Huali Film and Television, Bona Pictures, Shengtan Culture Film and Television Company, Penguin Pictures, Da Mi Mi Studio, etc. Li He serves as the producer, Ning Hao serves as the chief director, Kong Jiahuan serves as the director, Lin Yongjian, Sarina, Ge Uncle
The tear-jerking blockbuster "One Hundred and Eight" starring many famous actors will be grandly released on May 12th.
The film did not do any publicity or activities before its release. In the words of the producer, any publicity activities would be an apology for the film and the disaster ten years ago.
Producer Li Hyuk just finished promoting "The Ancient City" and returned to the crew of "The Wandering Earth" to take a group photo with the leading actors and post it on Weibo together with the stills of "One Hundred and Eighteen", and then wrote: "In
In China, there are many high mountains, and there are many rivers under the high mountains. People live beside the rivers, and they all have stories..."
Fans of Li Hyuk noticed this strange, slightly literary Weibo, and wondered what it was. Then they saw the stills of "One Hundred and Eight", and then they remembered that there was a movie produced by Li Hyuk that had not been approved.
Any promotion is about to be released.
In fact, it's not that there was no publicity at all. The night before the release, Penguin Video released a documentary called "These Ten Years Are Unforgettable."
The documentary is already highly tear-jerking. At the beginning, there is the voice-over of Uncle Lin Yongjian, one of the film's leading actors, accompanied by scenes of people's lives in several small towns.
"Actually, chatting here is quite difficult every time. The people here have one characteristic. They are very open-minded and indifferent, and rarely take the initiative to communicate their feelings with outsiders.
After staying here for a few days, you will understand that everyone we meet here is actually a lucky person back then. Everything they have experienced will be remembered for their entire lives, and we are only worthy of being listeners."
As the screen went dark, a desolate but strong soundtrack sounded, and in conjunction with the flashing images of mountains, a survivor began to narrate.
"That day was 2:28 p.m., and it was like 7 or 8 p.m...."
"At the beginning, the sun was very bright, and it suddenly became a little dark. That's when the sky turned dark..."
"The ground in the city was shaking, the dust came down, and it was dark. When I saw my classmates, I just saw a pair of eyeballs spinning around..."
"It was dark for five minutes, and I couldn't see my fingers. I couldn't see you or me."
"When all the dust is covered, the air becomes dark, the sky becomes dark, and there is that earthy smell..."
"The sofas and the refrigerator next door all fell on my living room. Tell me how violently they shook..."
"I'm on the first floor. The first floor has completely sunk now. When I just ran out, I saw a head flying out from the third floor..."
"At that time, there were more than 12,000 people in our town, and more than 6,500 people were killed. There were more than 5,000 people like us who survived."
"There is a cemetery on the mountain, and some victims are buried here. Now I am used to it. I didn't dare to come here before. It hurts my heart."
"I was dug out of the ruins. If it had been ten minutes later, I would have died at home..."
"After that, they asked me to explain it, but when I took the tourists to school, I just cried and couldn't say anything..."
"Even now, there are still many bones and the like in the school, because it was impossible to take them all out at once..."
The documentary was very short, only about half an hour, but it aroused enough enthusiasm and elicited many stories and tears. At the end of the documentary, the lead actor Lin Yongjian asked the aunt selling vegetables in front of a stall.
The aunt was wearing a sun hat, smiling and saying that she was touched, while pushing the brim of the hat down. The attentive audience noticed that there were tears in the corners of the aunt's eyes. Lin Yongjian stopped asking about this situation and could only say: "Okay,
I see……"
At the end of the program, a still from "One Hundred and Eight" was shown, along with a line of subtitles: These ten years have been unforgettable...
