Chapter 199 Breaking the Billion, Commercial Film Master
"The tenth domestic movie with a box office of over 100 million is released. The total box office of "The Wind" exceeded the 100 million mark in the early morning of July 27th!"
"Tang An dominates the domestic movie box office rankings by occupying two seats, second only to Zhang Yimou who occupies three seats!"
"The box office of "The Wind" exceeded 100 million in just 8 days after its release, creating Tang An's personal best result!"
""The Wind" has exceeded 10 million for 8 consecutive days, only second to director Zhang Yimou's "A City of Golden Armor" which set a record of 11 consecutive days of breaking 10 million during last year's Lunar New Year!"
"It only took 8 days for "The Wind" to break 100 million, second only to Zhang Yimou's 6-day record of breaking 100 million in box office last year with "The City of Gold"."
""The Wind" has been in theaters for 8 days and still dominates the daily box office. The total box office has exceeded 100 million!"
...
In the second week of the movie's release, on Monday the 23rd, "The Wind" relied on its extremely high reputation to win a box office record of 10.1 million with a 43% drop.
This is just the beginning of "The Wind"'s consecutive box office record of 10 million yuan. From Tuesday to Thursday, the box office revenue was 10.80, 10.05, and 10.22 million yuan respectively.
The total box office in 8 days was 108.77 million!
There is only one step away from breaking the 10 million mark, and every day there are dangers and dangers of just stepping on that line.
It has exceeded 100 million for 8 consecutive days, which is something even "Transformers" has not achieved!
"Transformers" broke this record the following Wednesday, with only 7 days to break 10 million.
"Transformers" received a box office of 18 million in the next three and four working days, and the decline was controlled at about 50%, showing a good trend.
As of now, in the early morning of July 27, "Transformers" has taken a total of 184 million yuan in box office in the mainland, still occupying the title of summer champion and annual champion!
But by that time, "The Wind" behind it had slowly caught up, and the gap between the two sides was only over 70 million!
Over 70 million. How many actors have made a lifetime of movies but none of them has reached this figure, not even in total.
How many directors are still working hard for a box office of tens of millions. After more than ten or twenty years of filming, the total of more than ten movies still does not have such a box office!
And with the participation of stars such as Xie Tingfeng, Yu Wenle, Fang Zuming, Wu Jing and other stars, with an investment of up to 80 million, "A Better Man", known as "the strongest action movie in the history of Hong Kong", has only had a total box office of 1,300 after 8 days of release.
Ten thousand!
"Doraemon: Nobita's Dinosaur", which was released one day later, had a total box office of just over 10 million in its seven days of release.
The combined total of the two movies is the box office of "The Wind" in two days, and no media is wasting space to report on them.
Now that "The Wind" has been released for eight days, the original news block on "Transformers" was lifted three days ago. After all, the editors-in-chief of major media cannot ignore the summer box office champion for a long time.
However, the 4 million was well spent. For a full week, "Transformers" occupied less than 30% of the news page. The China Film Promotion Department and the Public Relations Department almost hated Huayi now!
Otherwise, there is no telling whether "Assembly" can get 100 million box office in 8 days!
By this time, the media suddenly discovered that in terms of box office alone, there was only one director in China who could stabilize Tang An!
Two consecutive movies have exceeded 100 million, one "Super Body" has exceeded 150 million, and "The Wind" is inevitable to exceed 200 million according to the current trend.
Plus "Terror Cruise" worth 82 million and "Shark Beach" worth 31 million.
Only three years have passed, and the total box office of Tang An's four movies has reached nearly 400 million!
400 million box office. You must know that the total box office of domestic movies in the Mainland last year was only 1.55 billion.
In other words, Tang An’s four films in three years already accounted for 26% of the total domestic films last year!
The personal box office of 400 million is also second only to Zhang Yimou's 727 million, ranking second among domestic directors.
Behind him is Feng Xiaogang, who has a total box office of 385 million.
Of course, this will have to wait until "The Wind" reaches 200 million, and Feng Xiaogang will have another movie "Assembly" during the Lunar New Year, so he will overtake it again by then!
Last year he was labeled as a "new director", and the year before that he was called the leader of the new generation of directors. Now in the blink of an eye he has become the country's leading commercial film director second only to Zhang Yimou.
At the same time, in different places, those who watched Tang An reach this point step by step were all sighing.
As a result, the media once again started the flattery mode and shifted its focus to Tang An.
"On the rise of a famous director, 4 movies, 3 years, from the age of 24 to 27, Tang An has walked a path that 90% of people will never reach in their lifetime!"
"After the master of horror and science fiction, Tang An has become a pioneer in domestic spy films. He has once again opened up a new path for domestic films. It does not require a complicated background, a house, seven or eight actors,
It would also make for a wonderful movie!”
"The first horror film to hit the box office, the first science fiction film to hit the box office, and now the first spy film to hit the box office, Tang An is like China's Spielberg, able to perfect
Manage movies of various themes!”
"Tang An is China's commercial film master. No matter what type of movies he makes in the future, I will not doubt him at all!"
...
Commercial film master, this is already the highest title a director can get, although it is only blown up by the media!
However, incompetent people and the media will not blindly boast with their eyes closed. The current media is actually quite disciplined compared to 10 years ago.
At the very least, those who are not singing are kings and queens. Young actors don’t care whether they are popular or not. They are popular niche actors and actresses. If they are somewhat famous, they dare to be called superstars!
Some people laugh at these compliments, some are dismissive, some are jealous, and some are filled with hatred.
Once a person becomes famous and attracts much attention, it is easy to attract all kinds of envy, jealousy, and hatred.
Not making people jealous is mediocre!
However, no one refuted it. When Zhang Yimou was preparing for the Olympics, he was also asked about his thoughts on Tang An's success in breaking 100 million yuan in eight days with a spy movie.
Lao Mouzi, who has not given interviews for a long time, appeared in front of the camera for the first time.
"Actually, I have been paying attention to director Tang An. I have watched all four of his movies. I even went to the cinema to watch "The Wind" after I was busy a few nights ago."
"It can be seen that he has made great progress. I am not surprised to achieve this result. There is a lack of such creative young directors in China to inject new vitality into the domestic film industry!"
Thousands of miles away on the bank of the Yalu River, Feng Xiaogang, who was busy finishing the work of "Assembly", certainly did not escape reporters' questioning.
A spy film and a modern war film are both subjects that few people are interested in. When asked this question, Feng Xiaogang seemed confident.
"Director Tang is a very capable director. He is young, innovative, and often comes up with many new ideas. We often discuss the plot together in the company."
"The quality of "The Wind" is unquestionable, and it is a natural success to get this box office. "Assembly" will also bring a unique movie-watching experience to the audience. It will be a brand-new modern war blockbuster, and it will not only involve war.
....”
Jiang Wen, who is busy with the release of "The Sun Also Rises", was full of praise when interviewed by reporters. He also praised Tang An, who was the assistant director on the set of "Letter from a Strange Woman".
Chen Kaige, who is currently preparing for the movie "Mei Lanfang" and filming the feature films that he is good at, is not very interested in making a comeback. It is obvious that he is not very interested in this newly emerging great director.
Originally, I had just jumped into the street and was scolded badly. Suddenly a young man appeared and wanted to push the waves ahead, so it would be strange to be happy.
But even so, he didn't say anything bad, and no one in the entire entertainment industry refuted the reporter. Even if he felt disdainful, he wouldn't show it in public.
