The 28th day of the twelfth lunar month is a Monday, and many companies have begun the final finishing work. There is no 30th day of the twelfth lunar month this year, so the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month is the real New Year¡¯s Eve, and the real holiday starts from this day. But at this time, there is basically no work to deal with, and everyone's work and rest schedules are relatively relaxed.
As for the film company, the crew who were filming the movie also stopped what they were doing, and the people in the crew began to take a vacation, and those who stayed in the company, because the company's movie God of Gamblers is now being released It¡¯s a hot moment, so many people still want to stay here and continue working.
For Dragon Company, this period is also the end of the year. Except for most of the people working on God of Gamblers, everyone in the company has basically begun to take vacations one after another.
[It¡¯s over ten million, it¡¯s over ten million. ] The door of Yan Xu's office was suddenly pushed open, and Fatty Wang ran in with a stack of reports in his hands very excitedly.
"[It's over ten million, you must be too excited. ] Yan Xu looked at Fatty Wang who came in and said with a smile on his face. He was waiting for someone in the office, but what he was waiting for was not Fatty Wang who rushed in without knocking.
[The data has come out. It was released for four days and the box office exceeded 10 million. This is simply a miracle. ] Fatty Wang jumped and patted the pile of information on Yan Xu's desk.
Breaking 10 million in four days, this is the difference shown by God of Gamblers. Although several other movies are also very popular in Hong Kong and the box office continues to rise, there is really a big gap compared to God of Gamblers. Because God of Gamblers has been in a scene with full attendance since the first scene, which is completely unprecedented in previous movies, and on the 26th and 27th of the twelfth lunar month, even the midnight show In addition, the attendance at the late-night show was over 70% to 80%. This was the first time such a scene appeared in a Hong Kong movie.
The 70% to 80% attendance rate at midnight shows is still achievable for some movies. But the 70% to 80% attendance rate at the late-night venue is quite scary.
The performance of God of Gamblers on the first day was pretty much on par with the other films. The box office of 1.7 million was really on par with the other films, but on the second day it started to compete with the other films. Several films produced a gap, and on the third day. There is also the fourth day of Valentine's Day. This gap has completely exploded, especially on Valentine's Day, the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, this Sunday, the number of floating houses actually reached three million. It is completely comparable to the total box office of a small-budget film.
For other films, breaking over 10 million in one week is already pretty good, but breaking over 10 million in four days is simply beyond the imagination of many people. When everyone is marveling at the excitement of the movie God of Gamblers. I was also surprised by the huge box office figures he generated. Many film companies simply didn't know what to say. With the Spring Festival holiday approaching, this kind of performance will definitely continue. Such box office figures have been released. Many people are curious about how far this movie will go. Even A Hero's A Better Tomorrow and Prison Storm the previous year did not achieve such results.
Of course, although a number like the God of Gamblers is surprising, it is not completely unacceptable. In the schedule that started in January, except for Hotel of the Eight Immortals, which had a box office of over 30 million, and Rouge, which had a box office of 17 million, the remaining films did not perform particularly well, especially in the warm-up period before the Spring Festival war. . It's as if the entire market is in a state of exhaustion. The eight films have only received 20 million in box office. Compared with the same period last year, such a figure is only one-third of that. one.
Since the announcement of the eight-star good news, it seems that the power accumulated in the market has burst out all of a sudden. The tired period of the market has also passed, and the whole market has become active. In fact, apart from God of Gamblers¡¯ four-day performance of 10 million which is a bit scary, another one that is also a little scary is the Eight-Star Announcement from New Art City. In five days, although it did not reach 10 million, it was an exaggeration. numbers, but it also reached a score of eight million.
Following the Eight Star Announcement was the Flying Dragon Detective by Chen Long, Hong Jinbao and Yuan Biao. In the same four days, the box office was 6 million, and it was also the beginning of another 30 million box office. , such a result can definitely achieve such a box office.
In Chen Long's movies that are always full of masculine atmosphere, the comedy method of picking up girls in this movie can be said to be eye-catching, but for Chen Long, such pick-up scenes are not what he is good at, so overall It's a bit awkward, but the humorous plot and exciting fights completely uphold the high standards of Chen Long's previous films.
??Further down is Riches, which is even more compelling. It is the lowest-cost among many movies, although a lot of things have been added to this one.?There are other plots and scenes, but there is still a big gap compared with other movies. The cost of the whole movie is only three to four million. Just like God of Gamblers, the cost of filming to the end is also It cost tens of millions, which is two and a half times as much as this movie. For Dragon Warrior, the cost is even several times more than this movie.
With a box office of over RMB 4 million in four days, half of the entire cost has been recouped. This figure alone shows how deeply rooted a film that is close to the lives of Hong Kong citizens is in the hearts of the people. For those wealthy families, there are also heroic martial arts fights. Hong Kong citizens yearn for battle scenes, but they also like the trivial life around them.
The other two films, Yong Sheng's Red Lips and Yin Du's Chinese Heroes, were not as good as a few other films at the box office. They were also released for four days, and only 2.3 million was taken at the box office. , and Chinese Heroes only has a box office of 1.8 million. If these two films can exceed 10 million at this rate, it will be considered good.
"You're so excited for only 10 million. If it were 30 million, you wouldn't jump to the roof." Yan Xu looked at Fatty Wang's excited look and said, he is very aware of the power of this movie, and according to the current situation, if it reaches 30 million, it will definitely not be a problem.
[Thirty million, hahaha! ] Fatty Wang smiled and said, although he is now considered a first-line director, the highest box office of his movie is just over 20 million. Watching other directors have exceeded 30 million, he is also excited. If he can make a movie If this movie reaches a box office of 30 million, it can definitely become his masterpiece, and the current God of Gamblers is just that kind of movie.
