Chapter 863: The box office exceeded 100 million in a single day for 20 consecutive days
Logically speaking, it is already the third week for a movie to be released, and the number of screenings has been reduced. There are several new movies released in the same period, and they are not bad movies. On the contrary, the three movies released at the beginning of the summer season all have good reputations.
It's pretty good.
On Popular Film Critics Online, three movies released in early July received ratings of 8.5, 7.9, and 7.2 respectively. Such ratings are really not low.
In particular, the one that received a score of 8.2 is a commercial blockbuster with the main theme "Sniper Below Zero".
And this movie, directed by Li Yi's fellow student Tang Lu, won the daily box office championship on the first day of its release, with a box office of 220 million, marking the first shot of the summer season.
As we all know, as long as the reputation of a main theme movie is not particularly bad, in this era, it is really a box office killer.
The 8.5-point rating of "Sniper Below Zero" will inevitably decline as the number of moviegoers expands, but it is already a blockbuster with a good reputation and a main theme.
In comparison, "Westward Journey" has not only been released for two weeks, but the movie schedule is not as good as "Sniper Below Zero". Although the topic popularity is much higher than that of "Sniper Below Zero" due to the first release and accumulation, the two movies
There is naturally a huge gap in the subject matter.
However, even so, the box office trend of "Westward Journey" is still so steady that it is difficult to understand.
110 million!
This box office does not seem to be high. Compared with the 220 million yuan of "Sniper Below Zero" on the first day, it is only half of it. But you must know that this is the third week of the release of "Westward Journey", and it is the 11th consecutive day that the box office has exceeded 100 million yuan.
!
If it were said that the movies of the same period were not strong enough and that short men would win over generals, that might be true, but this is not the case.
The box office performance of "Westward Journey" is only ranked fourth!
This shows what?
It shows that the daily box office of the three newly released movies in the same period is very good, all exceeding 100 million.
But "Westward Journey" is still stable.
Then, on the second day of July, the daily box office of "Sniper Zero" reached a new high, with a daily box office of 250 million, continuing to lead the summer season.
The two films that followed were not far behind. Although they were not as eye-catching as "Sniper Below Zero", they still maintained a box office trend that did not lag behind.
But on the second day of the summer holiday season, the entire box office list was almost unchanged from the previous day. "Westward Journey" was still ranked fourth, and the box office was still 110 million!
This makes people a little confused.
Because, "Westward Journey" is no longer dominant in terms of film schedule, freshness, and popularity, especially in terms of the number of filming scenes. The film schedule itself has been reduced, coupled with the length of the movie, so,
The number of filming scenes of "Westward Journey" is actually not as good as that of the other three movies.
However, the result was that it still did not lose much at the box office.
On the popular film review website, the number of people who rated "Westward Journey" has exceeded one million.
Compared with other movies, the public rating curve of "Westward Journey" has left many people speechless.
The initial score of 9 points fell below 7 points a week after screening. It is not an exaggeration to say it was a waterloo, but it soon began to climb back to above 8 points.
However, the rating of "Westward Journey", which has been released for more than half a month, is now very close to 9 points. The 8.8 rating is the only place where "Westward Journey" can be higher than other movies of the same period.
At the same time, "Westward Journey" also set a new box office record for Chinese-language movies.
It is not the highest box office record, but the longest consecutive single-day box office record of over 100 million.
At the same time, this record continues to be maintained.
11 days, 12 days, 13 days in a row...
It can be said that this box office trend was completely unexpected by many people.
For example, after "Sniper Zero" hit highs for several consecutive days, the box office inevitably began to decline, with the daily box office falling by the 200 million mark.
The daily box office of two other movies in the same period began to drop by nine figures.
However, "Westward Journey" is like a thorn in the side, still maintaining a daily box office of 101 to 102 million.
As we all know, today's era is different from the past. Usually, if a movie wants to get a box office of 3 billion or 4 billion, most of the time, it has huge box office potential in the early stages.
Especially during the Spring Festival, many movies can even exceed 500 million in box office in a single day.
But the box office trend of "Westward Journey", such a linear box office trend, is unique.
The key is that the first-day box office of this movie was only 68 million, and the highest daily box office did not exceed 150 million. However, for such a movie, it managed to maintain a daily box office of over 100 million for 20 days.
!
Let the media also report on this wonderful scene!
""Westward Journey" has a single-day box office of over 100 million for 20 consecutive days, setting a record for the longest single-day box office of a Chinese-language film with a box office of over 100 million!"
""Westward Journey" opened low and performed well, and the box office trend created miracles. The daily box office exceeded 100 million for the 20th consecutive day!"
"Li Yi has not changed his true nature as the devil, and "Westward Journey" has once again created a box office miracle, with a box office of over 100 million in a single day for the 20th consecutive day!"
Of course, no matter how popular a movie is, there is a time when it cools down. It has been three weeks since "Westward Journey" was released.
The total box office is close to 3 billion.
But unlike other movies, "Westward Journey" never seems to have a particularly big explosion, but it has a long-term "small flow".
It has maintained an extremely stable box office trend.
However, finally, when it was 25 days after its release, the box office began to show obvious fluctuations.
The single-day box office revenue was 82 million.
The record of 20 consecutive days of daily box office exceeding 100 million has been ended.
But on this day, the rating of "Westward Journey" on the popular film review website returned to 9 points!
The rating of more than two million people also shows that the rating of this movie is very important.
However, the box office potential of this movie only goes so far. According to the predictions of Fanhai Film and Television and Li Yi, the final box office of "Westward Journey" will probably be around 3.3 billion to 3.5 billion.
But this is enough to make people stunned.
At the same time, Li Yi and Mu Qing's wedding date also arrived as scheduled.
The two of them were no longer thinking about the movie, but were nervously preparing for their wedding on August 8.
Although the two did not take the initiative to spread the news, as the first director in China, the news that Li Yi was about to get married was inevitably dug up by the media.
Fortunately, neither Li Yi nor Mu Qing are front-stage celebrities, so fans almost unanimously sent their blessings to the two.
This is the difference between directors and actors.
Because the director's fans and movie fans often fall in love with him because of his works.
