There is still a seven-day long holiday during the National Day in 2004, and people with a little bit of conditions will choose to travel.
If you can't go to Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, you still have to go to Zhangjiajie, Mount Tai and other famous domestic tourist attractions.
If that doesn't work, you can go camping in the suburbs.
This means that the National Day holiday, which has a full seven-day holiday, does not have much potential for box office explosions, and is far inferior to the Lunar New Year and summer holidays.
However, there are still some good movies in this year's National Day holiday. "New Police Story" and "2046" are two different types of movies that can satisfy moviegoers with different needs.
These two movies also lived up to expectations, taking in box office receipts of 5 million and 3 million respectively, leading the National Day season.
However, an unfamiliar movie occupied the third place at the box office that day, knocking out "Cheung Side", which had been in theaters for some time.
1.3 million in a single day!
"Shark Beach", which was frequently talked about on the Internet two days ago, grossed over one million at the box office on its first day!
Audiences who have never seen this movie are confused. From the director to the protagonist, there is no fame at all. How can it get such a high box office?
However, when viewers who were full of doubts opened portals and professional film forums one after another, they were really shocked by the reviews and praises one after another.
"Damn it, Fuji News doesn't even cover "Police Story" anymore. What's so good about this "Shark Tank"!" A skinny boy in an Internet cafe near a university town was playing games and watching the news.
The boy's name is Xu Liang. He is also a movie lover, but he has already finished watching the last few movies and has not paid much attention to "Shark Beach".
He opened the movie review in disbelief, quit the game, and watched it carefully.
“Speaking of sharks, we can’t avoid the classic monster thriller “Jaws” directed by Steven Spielberg in 1975. It was also the first classic in film history to have a box office of over 100 million US dollars.
We also know that in reality, great white sharks are endangered species and are prohibited from hunting. Sharks are also about to become extinct because humans love to eat shark fins.
And the protagonist of "Shark Beach" we are going to talk about today, Li Sijia, is a little girl who came to a deserted beach alone, and accidentally ran into a large shark that is no longer common.
The little girl didn't have a single weapon on her body. A bikini and a tight surfing suit were all her outfit.
But if you think this is a mindless thriller about selling meat to death, you are obviously underestimating it.
The little girl had close contact with a shark for the first time. Her long legs were attacked by the shark head-on, and she was forced to swim to the nearest reef.
The whole film seems to be in a secret room, but this time the director placed the "secret room" on the ocean.
It seems vast but is in desperate situations.
The coast is not far away, about two hundred yards. Imagine that what is between you is a big shark that keeps circling around you.
The tide rises at any time and submerges the rocks. The sun is strong, there is no food, you are dehydrated at any time, the wounds are still festering, and you have lost a lot of blood.
You must try to get back to the island, or hold on until someone else comes to rescue you.
Fortunately, there is a very important supporting character "accompanying" her, a seagull with a broken wing.
The male protagonist, Mr. Shark, has such good teeth that he bites off a surfboard and blocks his waist...
Finally, as a spoiler, this movie will leave you with at least one shadow: metal accessories.
In the previous promotional video, there was a scene of using earrings and necklaces to sew stitches. In the movie, the director gave a close-up of more than ten seconds, completely showing the whole process of the little girl using earrings and necklaces to sew stitches on herself!
"
Use earrings or necklaces to sew?
Xu Liang's eyes lit up and he asked Du Niang to find the video.
Two minutes later, Xu Liang stared at the monitor with bright eyes, his face full of excitement.
"Damn it, the director is so talented, but the heroine's figure is really good, much better than the other female classmates in the class... Hehe!"
Seeing his behavior, his companion called him, "Ryoko, why are you giggling? Why don't you run around? Hurry up and run!"
"What a joke, I went to watch a movie!"
What's so fun about games? Legends can ruin a life, and journeys can last for three generations. If you don't have any money, you can only play for a while. I guess I'll only be able to play Bubble Hall by the end of the month!
"Hey, where are you going? We can't refund the money in less than half an hour!"
"If you can't retreat, forget it!"
...
"New director Tang An's debut film "Shark Beach" was released in major theaters in the Mainland yesterday. It grossed 1.3 million yuan on its first day, ranking third in the daily box office list!"
"The National Day schedule has added new talent. The Chinese-language film "Shark Beach", which won the Best Feature Film and the Audience Choice Award at the San Sebastian Film Festival in Spain, won 1.3 million box office on the first day with 24% of the film schedule!"
"The biggest dark horse of the year, according to internal knowledge and understanding, the total investment of "Shark Beach" is only 3.5 million, and the box office is expected to be in line with the cost in three days!"
"New director + new actor, the success of "Shark Beach" tells us that quality is king!"
"It is understood that the heroine of "Shark Beach" Yang Mi debuted as a child star. She is under 18 years old this year. To be able to give such an outstanding performance at such an age, it is foreseeable that a new star in the film industry is rising!"
Last year, there were less than 10 domestic films that exceeded one million in domestic box office on the first day. The super high box office of "Shark Tank" naturally made the audience praise it.
Huayi Group, Lu Chuan felt a little restless when he woke up early in the morning.
Although the success of "The Gun" made him stand out in the director field, Jiang Wen's repeated interference made the film bear Jiang Wen's brand to the outside world.
He needs the success of "Kekexili" to prove himself, so tell him in front of Jiang Wen, stop gesticulating in front of old paper!
I arrived at the company at 8 o'clock and went to the distribution director's office to learn about the box office in the early morning hours.
"110,000?" Lu Chuan looked at Su Wenjie in disbelief.
"Yes, there should be no problem with China Film's data!"
Su Wenjie looked at Lu Chuan's disappointed face and comforted him, "Don't worry too much, Director Lu. The film critics and reporters who attended the premiere all praised the movie. It is estimated that it will get 500,000 box office today. With the increase in word-of-mouth
After fermentation, it is very promising to eventually break through 10 million!”
Lu Chuan seemed to have remembered something again and looked at Su Wenjie expectantly, "I remember the box office of "Shark Beach" in the early morning was 160,000. What was the box office yesterday? Is it 500,000?"
"this......"
"Mr. Su?"
Lu Chuan's ominous premonition deepened!
Could it be that the box office of "Shark Beach" is more than 500,000, or even higher?
"1.3 million. The box office of "Shark Tank" during prime time last night rose very fast. It is probably because of the promotion. Moreover, it is also a big gimmick for the director to hold all positions in the crew. The audience was curious and easily walked into the cinema.
Got it!"
Su Wenjie found a decent reason to comfort Lu Chuan.
1.3 million...1.3 million...
However, Lu Chuan's mind is now filled with the number 1.3 million. This is a number that "Kekexili" could never reach on the first day, and he is a little disheartened.
Lu Chuan spent all day yesterday preparing for the premiere of the movie. Except for asking about the early morning box office of "Shark Beach" in the morning, he didn't pay any attention to it. He didn't expect the box office to be so high!
After feeling disappointed for a while, Lu Chuan thought of the stunt in "Shark Beach" again.
snort!
It's so stupid to use this as a gimmick!
Lu Chuan felt disdainful, and gradually came up with an idea. He said goodbye to Su Wenjie and returned to his office.
