After the premiere, relevant reports quickly spread on the Internet.
Generally speaking, few people pay attention to the news about a movie's premiere. At most, moviegoers and fans can help spread the news, and the media generally do not report it with much fanfare.
However, with more than two months of preparation and the continuous outburst of public opinion, the movie "Skyfall" cannot be viewed from a conventional perspective.
Especially now that it is about to be released, the audience's enthusiasm and expectations are getting higher and higher. Whenever a new news topic about it appears, it is destined to be eagerly discussed by many onlookers.
#The premiere with the strongest lineup in domestic history#
"Directors such as Stephen Chow and Kok Ko from Hong Kong, superstars such as Andy Lau and Chow Yun-fat, directors such as Li An from Baodao, Hou Hsiao-hsien, celebrities such as Lin Qingxia, Wang Zuxian, Shu Qi, etc., plus many big names from mainland China, I am afraid it is not the entire entertainment industry.
Everyone in the industry should go, awesome!"
"Let me go, this guest lineup and the awards ceremony can't be compared."
"Of course, there are Hollywood superstars and well-known directors. Well-known producers are here. One producer is the partner of the world-class director Cameron, and there is a well-known director who is also the director of the disaster movie "The Day After Tomorrow."
Who can invite big names like them to domestic awards ceremonies?"
"Breaking news for Skyfall! It deserves such a premiere lineup! Based on my many years of movie-watching experience, this movie is definitely the most ambitious blockbuster ever made in China!"
"Be more confident upstairs. You don't have to rely on your movie-watching experience. We are all the same. Such a movie has never appeared before. It is an epoch-making product."
"..."
The president of #Hollywood UA Cinemas China appeared at the premiere of "Skyfall". The movie is suspected to be released globally and aims at the global box office market#
"But I am uneducated, so I can only use one sentence to evaluate it."
"666, it's best to export it overseas. I have a vague feeling that this movie will be the first masterpiece in our country's history to attract global attention!"
"Isn't "Hero" the first film exported overseas?"
"Brother, "Hero" is only released in Asia and North America, not around the world. Furthermore, many movies have only been released on a small scale in Europe, and most of them are to win awards. Commercial films like this have only been released in China in recent years.
Since then, there has never been a commercial film in China that has been released globally."
"Oh, oh, thank you, thank you. I don't know much about this. "Skyfall" is awesome. Not only is it the first domestic science fiction film, it is also the first to be released globally. Come on!"
"Come on Chenglong! Enter Hollywood again!!"
"Come on Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei! They will become international superstars now!"
"It would be best if it could be exported overseas. I have a vague hunch that this movie will be the first masterpiece in our country's history to let the world know us!"
"Why are you so excited? How does this movie have anything to do with you? Has it affected your monthly income of 3,000?"
"Get out! People like you are the most annoying!"
"Plus 1, I really hate this kind of rubbish. My monthly income of several thousand has nothing to do with me watching this movie, but what I want is the emotional value brought by this collective sense of honor. Do you understand! Say this kind of thing
Most of the people are unhappy with their lives, have anti-social and dark psychology, and are simply wasting the country’s food. Get lost!”
"..."
#The topic of premiere film reviews has soared, and the pre-sales of "Tianmu" are gratifying#
"Is this movie really that good? After a nap, I saw that the movie section of Weiyu is full of reviews of this movie. Eight out of ten reviews are positive. Could it be that they paid for it by trolls?"
"Brother, if it's good, it can't be fake, and if it's bad, it can't be real. Just because it's the first domestically produced science fiction movie, because it's Chenglong's movie, and because it's the first time that Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei play the male and female protagonists, I
I think it’s worth buying a ticket to see it.”
"It will be released in a few days. I have to buy a movie ticket to support it. The publicity is so great, I must go and see it."
"Hurry up and buy the pre-sale. This movie is so popular. All the good shows in Jinan during the three days of November, Twelve and Thirteen are sold out. It's really so popular. This is the first time for me to buy a movie.
Seeing this situation during the pre-sale, I was forced to buy tickets offline on the day of the release in order to get a good show."
"It's the same here in Changsha. The pre-sale shows are all late at night and early in the morning. All the day and night shows are sold out. There are empty seats at the back, and it's the first time I've bought a pre-sale ticket.
Scalpers, a ticket for a VIP hall with a good show and good seats was sold from 60 to 120. These scalpers are simply crazy, and I also accepted it!"
"..."
#Breaking the record again! The three-day pre-sales of "Tianmu" exceeded 50 million!#
"Oh my God! 50 million? This is just pre-sale, it is higher than the total box office of many movies."
"What was the last record?"
"The previous record was just half a month ago, with seven-day pre-sales of 36 million for "The Founding of the People's Republic of China."
"Where's last year's winner "Red Cliff"?"
"The data of "Red Cliff" has long been surpassed. The first-day box office of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" has broken the national record of 34 million for "Red Cliff" and reached 41 million. The current box office performance of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" has also reached 260 million.
It’s only a matter of time before it surpasses the 320 million in “Red Cliff”.”
""Skyfall" will break all these records, believe it or not. Smiling.jpg."
"As long as the situation is stable, which is obvious, the pre-sales are already 50 million, and there are still four days of pre-sales, this movie may become a new milestone in the history of domestic movies!"
"..."
There is a lot of discussion on the Internet, and the majority of netizens are looking forward to the release of the movie.
At the Beijing Airport, the couple was seeing off the Macrons and Jack and Grande.
"Jack, have a nice trip."
"Elland, please reply to this letter when you arrive, and keep in touch at any time!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At noon, the sun is blazing.
Chu Xuan smiled and shook hands with Jack vigorously, conveying friendly feelings; Liu Yifei and Ailand embraced each other tenderly, with a bit of reluctance in their eyes.
The couple had been accompanying the couple in the hotel since they woke up.
They are both friends and close partners. This time the couple came all the way to attend the premiere of their own movie. Naturally, the couple spared no effort to spend more time and energy to accompany and care for them.
However, their stay was not long. They will return to Los Angeles today because the post-production of "The Twilight Saga" is waiting for the Macron family to be busy.
Just as Brilliant Era will rise strongly in the film industry with "Sky Curtain", Macron Film and Television is also fully looking forward to reversing the unfavorable situation of corporate development with the film "Twilight".
If "Sky Curtain" is a product of Bright Era focusing on the domestic local market and exploring the industrialization of film and television, it belongs to the core line of the company's development.
Overseas cooperative films such as "Twilight" provide an important channel for company personnel to go to Hollywood to get rid of the chaff and earn US dollars to repay the company's overall development. This film development route is also very important.
.
The couple didn't try too hard to stay, and Chu Xuan personally drove to the airport to see them off.
"Uncle and aunt, I wish you a smooth journey!"
"Chu, Sissi, when "Twilight" premieres, you will be our most distinguished guests. We will see you then!"
"Okay, see you then!"
Watching the family and their entourage walk into the terminal in a hurry, the couple slowly returned to their vehicle, left the airport and went straight to Bright Times Media.
The premiere is over, and the response from people at home and abroad has been very good. They have successfully crossed another important level.
The pre-sales situation in the past few days has also been very good. When I woke up in the hotel, I received a notice from the company staff that pre-sales reached 50 million in three days. This all shows that the movie is in a good situation, and it is not good in the general sense.
Instead, it presents a situation of soaring straight into the sky.
In Chu Xuan's view, the total box office of "Red Cliff", which topped the box office last year, was only 320 million, and the pre-sale of their movie reached 50 million in just three days. If this situation is placed in a market environment where the box office will easily be worth billions in ten years,
Maybe it's nothing, but in the current year of 2009, it's definitely a miracle.
Today, the box office market is still in the early stages of expansion, and the Internet online shopping industry is also at the end of its initial stage of development.
A movie can earn 50 million in three days of pre-sale, and nearly 1.2 million people have purchased pre-sale tickets for their movie, and it is still going on. Such a grand event is really unimaginable in the current industry.
Perhaps, their movie is really going to explode, and it will be as powerful as a nuclear bomb.
However, everything still depends on the official release. Only the data after the release is true and reliable.
Next, the couple eagerly awaited the release of the movie in a few days.
There are only four or five days left until the release, and the movie is still so popular. I guess there won't be any more accidents, right?
But what the couple never expected was that something unexpected happened, but this accident was a small surprise.
"Ah? "Space Force" has been withdrawn?" Liu Yifei just arrived at the company and walked into the office, and her secretary Lin Xiaoya informed her of the news.
Wang Jinhua and Li Hu are still in the hotel, staying with people from Yinghuang, Huaying, Tang Jili, Chenglong and UA Cinemas.
The first is to treat important guests, and the second is to discuss film matters. The company is temporarily managed by Lin Xiaoya.
"What's going on?" Chu Xuan pulled a chair with pulleys to the opposite side of the secretary's desk and sat down side by side with Liu Yifei. The couple became interested.
They have never seen "Space Men". Judging from relevant news reports and online reviews collected by the company's marketing department, they only know that the quality of this movie is mediocre and not something to be afraid of.
But after all, it is also a Hollywood science fiction movie. In view of the fact that domestic people will subconsciously tend to view Hollywood movies in general when it comes to science fiction movies, even if they think their "Cover" is perfect, there are still some minor flaws.
Worry, worried that this competitor will divert too many viewers when their movie is released, thereby affecting the upper limit of the performance of "The Sky".
But I really didn’t expect that this competitor would take the initiative to give in and withdraw the film?
As a result, their science fiction film is the only one on the National Day schedule, and there is no other similar film to compete with it. This is undoubtedly excellent news.
"The person from Huaying Distribution called Mr. Hu from the theater company and explained the situation. Mr. Hu just called me and reiterated that "Spacemen" has been confirmed to be withdrawn, and due to the tight withdrawal time, the remaining films
It was too late to make arrangements, so the number of movies released on November 1 was reduced from eight to seven, and there will be no more additions, so our "Sky Curtain" and the other six movies will be allocated some extra movies." Lin Xiaoya elaborated.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei looked at each other, and both of them had joy in their eyes. The song "Good Luck Comes" at this moment was enough to represent their mood.
However, this "Space Warrior" is a Hollywood movie introduced by the entertainment giant Chengtian Jiahe. Why did it do such a shameless thing to withdraw it?
"There are only a few days left for the movie to be released, but now it has been withdrawn. Are you afraid of our movie?" Liu Yifei joked, with a happy look on her face.
"Maybe." Chu Xuan nodded slightly, acquiescing to this reason in his heart, and it seemed that there was really no other reason.
"Also." Lin Xiaoya continued: "Mr. Hu said that not only "Space Warriors" wanted to be withdrawn, but also "The Slim Gentleman" and "Rye Field", but only "Space Warriors" was successfully withdrawn.
, it is estimated that the theaters want to protect this Hollywood science fiction film."
The couple raised their eyebrows and looked slightly surprised. They didn't expect that there were two more movies that they wanted to withdraw.
"Is it all because our movies are so popular?" Liu Yifei couldn't help but laugh, looked at Chu Xuan and said, "I feel like we have become villains? Other people's movies don't want to play with us."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Both Chu Xuan and Lin Xiaoya couldn’t help laughing. This situation combined with Liu Yifei’s statement is indeed quite interesting.
As for what Hu Hanguang said, the theaters allowed the withdrawal of "Space Warriors" but did not allow the other two movies to be withdrawn. The couple can understand this.
If too many movies are withdrawn at once, this will not only break the rules of the theater chain industry, but also waste the human and material resources such as promotion and pre-sales that the theater chain has arranged. It will also cause the theaters in the same period to lack different types of movies.
The sources of movies will affect the healthy ecological environment for the development of theaters. This is a situation that theaters do not want to see.
The reason for allowing the withdrawal of "Space Warriors" is very simple. Hollywood movies have always performed well at the box office. If they are reduced to cannon fodder because of their "Cover", this will not only be a loss for Golden Harvest, but also
It's the theater chain's loss.
Therefore, the overall relationship between cinemas and movies is that of friends rather than enemies. As long as a work can prove to have a certain commercial value, the cinemas will be even more active than the movie studios in taking care of the film.
In any case, let the theaters and Chengtian Golden Harvest pursue their own interests, as long as this situation is beneficial to their "Sky Curtain".
"In this case, the maximum initial film schedule we originally planned was 39%. If the situation is good on the day of release, wouldn't there be a chance to exceed 40%?" Liu Yifei trimmed her hair and looked forward to it happily.
"I can only say that it is very possible." Lin Xiaoya nodded.
"Good thing." Chu Xuan stood up and said goodbye: "Sister Hua asked us to see if there is anything you need to deal with. If there is nothing, we will go home. The company has thanked you for your hard work. If you have anything to do, please call us. Hua
Sister, I’m not free these two days.”
Liu Yifei also stood up, picked up her bag and slung it over her shoulder to leave.
"It's nothing, just reviewing some reporting documents. Boss and wife, please go back. I can handle it. I will call you if there is any situation." Lin Xiaoya said.
Just like that, the couple left the office and went home to rest.
The cancellation of Hollywood blockbusters is unprecedented.
If an ordinary movie was withdrawn, few people might care, and few media outlets would publicize it.
But what was withdrawn was a Hollywood blockbuster, a science fiction movie from the United States. This situation was extremely gimmicky.
When the news was announced on the official Weibo account of the movie on Weibo, it quickly triggered an unusually heated discussion.
#"Space Warrior" has been withdrawn during the National Day, and the re-release date is to be determined#
"Ah? Why has it been withdrawn? I'm still waiting to see it released. What's going on?"
"There used to be "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" that spanned the National Day, and a lot of movies were released during the National Day period. I guess the competition for the National Day schedule this year was too fierce, so it was withdrawn."
"No, "Space Men" is a Hollywood blockbuster! No matter how fierce the competition is, this movie will not be withdrawn, right?"
"That's right, I've never heard of a Hollywood blockbuster being withdrawn. It must be weird. Could it be that the authorities suppressed it? Or is there something wrong with the content of the movie?"
"What are you talking about? The government is going to suppress it and still allow this movie to be screened? If the film has problems with its content, it won't pass the censorship. It won't even be able to get a screening license, let alone a screening."
"Then why was it withdrawn?"
"Hey, there's "Skyfall: The Enemy" here, so I'm afraid I'll get into trouble and get myself into trouble."
"..."
Just as netizens were talking about it, the media started to stir up trouble on this topic, setting the pace for the sake of traffic.
#The light of domestic science fiction, Hollywood blockbusters must also avoid it!#
"Awesome! This seems to be the first time that a Hollywood blockbuster has been withdrawn to avoid domestic films, right?"
"This is indeed the first time! It has never happened before. Domestic movies always avoid Hollywood blockbusters."
"No, our domestic movies and Hollywood movies have always been released at the same time. How can we avoid them?"
"Go and search online. How many Hollywood blockbusters have been released in recent years by great directors like Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaogang, and Tsui Hark? Even if there are Western movies, they are not blockbusters.
Most of them are literary films."
"It's true. There's nothing hard to admit. When our country's movies are scheduled to be released, they deliberately avoid big Hollywood productions. Otherwise, they will suffer serious losses and it will be all wasted money."
"Sure enough, there is no harm without comparison. This is the first time that a Hollywood blockbuster has taken the initiative to withdraw from the competition. I just want to say that "Skyfall" is awesome!"
Under the rhythm of the media looking for gimmicks to gain popularity, it has invisibly provided extremely exciting and emotional value to netizens. I can only say that there might as well be more of this kind of rhythm, which is enough to make many people who have been pressured by the West bend their backs.
Those who got up raised their heads and faced up to their cultural self-confidence as Chinese people.
The majority of netizens were very passionate about this news, and their comments gradually raised the level of "Skyfall: At the Gates" a little higher.
In Vukopo's view, this movie has already reached the level of "immortality", but now because of his withdrawal, it seems to have set off the film in reverse.
In Jiahe's office all day long, Wu Kebo was in a depressed mood with mixed emotions. Just withdrawing the film would make public opinion more popular about the movie. These media are simply indifferent and will join in wherever there is interest.
There is no one left.
But now that he has made a decision, he and this movie will be "all prosperous". The more popular this movie is, the more it will promote the development of science fiction culture in the industry. Then he and Mosto, who have already reached a consensus on cooperation, will
Be the first to occupy this emerging vast market.
"Go ahead, I won't argue with you anymore. Even if you break out of the galaxy, it has nothing to do with me." He convinced himself, and finally felt better.
In a villa in the capital, Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei were a little speechless. They didn't expect that Wu Kebo was so cowardly and had no shame at all. He would withdraw the file immediately.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although after the withdrawal, their remaining seven films have benefited, but it is obvious that the one that has benefited the most is definitely "Sky Curtain" of Brilliant Era.
You are obviously the biggest opponent of "Temple", but you don't want to find a way to fight, but instead bring greater benefits to your competitors. Is there any way you can play like this?
The two presidents of Huayi also don’t think about it. If it weren’t for the final reversal of public opinion they manipulated, “Tianmu” would not have the current general trend of “gods will kill gods when they stand in the way, and Buddhas will kill when they stand in the way of Buddha.”
If Wu Kebo knew all this, if Wu Kebo knew what the two kings of Huayi were thinking at this moment, he would definitely curse. If it weren't for these two guys, "Sky Curtain" would not be so popular, and he would not have to cancel it.
"I can't stop it. Let's wait and see the results of the release. That's it for this year's National Day release. Focus on the company's listing and think about how to negotiate with Western capital." Wang Zhongjun said calmly. Wang Zhonglei felt unhappy.
nod.
In the Guangguang Media office, Wang Changtian was also a little surprised when he learned the news about the withdrawal of Chengtian Jiahe.
What surprised him was not the withdrawal itself, but what kind of agreement Vukopo signed.
The top circles of capital in China have always regarded face projects as more important than profits, which means that face is more important than money. Because they are not short of money, they care more about face.
Unless the loss of benefits is so great that it affects oneself, then it would be very shameless.
So he was very curious about what kind of guarantee agreement Vukopo had signed with Hollywood producers, and how much compensation would be required if the standards were not met, so that Vukopo ignored his face and didn't care about being laughed at by people like them, and chose to
Movie withdrawn.
But this was a secret, so naturally he didn't know the details and didn't care much about it.
What makes him even more interested is that the only competitor has withdrawn, and the favorable situation of "Skyfall: Under the Gate" will be further improved. He is very interested in the specific step it can take.
It's just that the movie hasn't been released yet, so we can only make predictions based on pre-sales.
In the next few days, after Wang Changtian came home from the company every night, he would go online or ask through his personal network about the pre-sales situation of the movie that day. Even the sales of "Astro Boy" that he imported from the island country
I don’t care much about pre-sales.
The current market cap for cartoons is just like that, with pre-sales peaking at only 18 million. There can’t be any miracles. How can there be as big a change as this popular domestic science fiction blockbuster?
Watching the pre-sale box office data increase day by day, from 50 million in the first three days, to 64 million on the fourth day, 81 million on the fifth day, and 99 million on the sixth day...
On September 30th, the eve of the National Day release, the pre-sale of all movies ended. Among the movie data compared, only "Skyfall" is very conspicuous and stands out.
"130 million!"
Even if Wang Changtian had said before that the pre-sales of this movie might exceed 100 million, it was just a joke at most. Unexpectedly, this movie really did it, and it was still 130 million.
Pre-sales have reached 130 million, which means that the starting point of this movie's box office is already 130 million, and this is the lowest figure in the first three days of release. So what will be the result in the subsequent 27 days?
Wang Changtian took a breath, this was beyond his imagination.
"There must be a lot of people who can't sleep, right? Including Brilliant Era, including the film's crew, these pre-sale results are enough to shock the entire industry. It's simply a fantasy!"
A miracle is something that can be imagined and perhaps achieved.
Fantasy, this adjective means that something is completely fantasy.
Wang Changtian didn't use miracles to describe the 130 million, but used fantasy, which shows how shocked he was before falling asleep that night.
As he said, on the eve of this release, many people couldn't sleep, and the same was true for the couple Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei...
