After the premiere of Kung Fu Panda, the North American film market achieved a box office of 48 million, but in China it unexpectedly exceeded the box office mark of hundreds of millions!
For such a huge gap in box office results, no one would have expected such a result, including Zhou Shaoming himself!
The North American film market has always been the paradise of the film kingdom. Whether it is the output of films, the influence of the films after their release, or the box office results, it is second to none in the world!
However, Kung Fu Panda, a Hollywood blockbuster, has created superb box office results abroad, but its box office results in the local North American film market have been mediocre!
Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath, not knowing whether to be happy or frustrated! I'm glad that this movie has achieved such impressive box office results in the Chinese film market!
What is frustrating is that in this important film market in North America, the box office results are tepid!
"Ben, where do you think we should focus on the promotion of the movie?" Zhou Shaoming began to plan the later promotion of the Kung Fu Panda movie!
The box office results of Kung Fu Panda¡¯s premiere were reversed between North America and China, which suddenly made Zhou Shaoming feel a little troublesome! Zhou Shaoming wants to put publicity above the North American film market!
Benjamin pushed down his glasses and said: "We have already analyzed this, Zhou. After the analysis, we feel that the focus should be on the North American film market."
Zhou Shaoming nodded and asked, "Why?"
Benjamin answered truthfully: "Because the North American film market is still the region with the highest box office, the Kung Fu Panda movie premiered in North America on the same day. The box office results were not ideal. We can promote it based on the audience's good reputation for the movie." , to achieve more box office results."
In fact, Zhou Shaoming thought so too. But Zhou Shaoming still has some concerns, "What about the Chinese film market? The movie Kung Fu Panda has already been so popular in the Chinese film market, so it is certain that this movie will be more popular with Chinese audiences. We will focus on it." In terms of promotion in the Chinese film market, it will have better box office results, allowing the Kung Fu Panda movie to achieve unparalleled box office results."
Benjamin hesitated and responded to Zhou Shaoming: "We have also considered this issue, but considering that the premiere has already achieved such high popularity, word-of-mouth and popularity have reached its peak, then we will use people's word-of-mouth. In addition, we will promote Movie poster. It is enough to sit and promote the movie Kung Fu Panda in the Chinese film market. We should now in turn seize the share of the North American film market! Because here is a source of greater potential at the box office."
Zhou Shaoming nodded and said: "What you said makes sense. It's the same as what I think. Then do this." The task of publicizing the plan was left to Benjamin!
On the second day after Kung Fu Panda was released, it was still very popular in theaters, especially in Chinese theaters. Kung Fu Panda, which was chosen to be released on the weekend, has been a hit with Chinese audiences!
For a Hollywood cartoon with martial arts as its main theme in North America, no one in the audience would have thought that such a movie would be shot so realistically by a foreign director, making you feel like you are on the scene and enjoy the fun of the martial arts world!
China¡¯s national treasure panda, coupled with a variety of martial arts characters, makes people watch a Chinese-style martial arts cartoon! I didn¡¯t know the director of this movie, so I thought it was a domestic film!
However, this is not the case. This classic movie was shot by the Chinese director Zhou Shaoming in Hollywood. It's a real Hollywood blockbuster!
Especially young people, the pursuit of Kung Fu Panda has reached the extreme. After get off work, they come to the theater in pairs or with their partners to enjoy the fun this movie brings to them!
Among college students, many come to the theater, but the students who are used to chasing pirated movies online still like to wait quietly for movies to appear online!
At this time, Kung Fu Panda has reached 2 million views on Youku in just two days, and Kung Fu Panda has become a popular movie for everyone!
After the release of Kung Fu Panda in Chinese theaters on the second day, the box office revenue reached 45 million yuan. In one theater in Guangzhou alone, the movie box office revenue was 5 million yuan!
This makes people sigh. The power of Hollywood movies makes people feel that Director Smith Zhou has great appeal at the Chinese box office!
In the North American film market, the Kung Fu Panda movie still maintained a tepid box office performance. After its release the next day, the Kung Fu Panda movie reached a box office of more than 20 million!
For other movies?Such a box office result is already considered very good. It must be able to achieve so many box office results in one day after its premiere, which shows the strength of this movie!
However, the movie Kung Fu Panda took about a year to produce, and the production cost alone reached hundreds of millions. In two days, it only had box office results of less than 70 million. The weak box office results in the early stage made people a little worried. I¡¯m curious, where are all the audiences who support Director Smith Chow?
Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath and leaned back on the chair to meditate quietly. Zhou Shaoming was not like the people outside who spread lies. After seeing the box office results of Kung Fu Panda in the past two days, he began to worry unfoundedly!
Most of the movies I shot in the past had a box office of 50 million at the premiere. However, after the release of Iron Man and a box office of hundreds of millions, it is difficult to be objective when observing the premiere of the movie Kung Fu Panda. !
However, as a director, Zhou Shaoming must see the current situation clearly. It is true that the box office performance of Kung Fu Panda in the past two days is not very satisfactory, but it is not as bad as what outsiders say! This movie must have only been out for two days, so there's still a long time before it's in theaters!
Until the box office success comes, all speculations are empty talk! Zhou Shaoming closed his eyes. In the North American film market, most people who come to the theater are children and people who are interested in Chinese culture and art!
And some young people and students still haven¡¯t come to the theater to watch it. After all, in the past few days, young people have chosen other types of movies in the theater! This animated film still has a considerable box office share in the North American film market. Those people who have always been highly interested in this film must find a way to mobilize their enthusiasm!
When Zhou Shaoming thought of this, he carefully recalled the publicity plan that Benjamin had called out to him! This plan is mainly aimed at North America!
Led by Hollywood superstars to build momentum for this movie, coupled with various publicity, I believe that the Kung Fu Panda movie will achieve ideal box office results with a good reputation!
Zhou Shaoming sighed and slowly opened his eyes. Indeed, the current situation is as expected. After being released in the North American film market, the Kung Fu Panda movie began to look tired, but this means that the backlash in the later period will be stronger!
A new week is coming. After two days of release, only Kung Fu Panda, which has accumulated less than 70 million box office results, obviously did not take the first place in the North American weekly rankings!
Starting from the third day of Kung Fu Panda¡¯s release, the box office performance in China and North America began to ease. On the third day of Kung Fu Panda¡¯s release in China, it ended with a box office of 20 million US dollars!
The box office performance of North American movies has also begun to rebound strongly. After the third day of its release, the Kung Fu Panda movie achieved a box office of nearly 30 million in the North American film market!
For a time, the box office performance of the Kung Fu Panda movie in China and North America was different, and they kept alternating with each other!
In China, from Monday to Friday, the worst box office performance of this movie was US$5 million!
In the early stage of its release, Zhou Shaoming's movie had a box office of five million US dollars, which had never appeared in the North American film market, not even the Kung Fu Panda movie. The box office performance was somewhat tepid and very unstable, but when it was released in the next five days, the worst it could reach tens of millions.
With the continuous strengthening of publicity, the two weekend days have become the second spring of Kung Fu Panda in the North American film market!
"Fifty million box office results." Ben clenched his fists hard and told Zhou Shaoming next to him about the day's box office results.
Zhou Shaoming finally breathed a sigh of relief. With the later publicity, it seems that it will still be of sufficient help to the movie's box office performance.
¡°Where is the Chinese film market?¡±
Benjamin said truthfully: "Thirty million US dollars. However, in the Chinese film market, it has accumulated more than 80 million box office results. In North America, there are also more than 80 million weekly box office results."
Mr. Zhou smiled heartily and said lightly: "I have always expected that my movies will achieve the same box office results in China and North America. In this way, I can constantly refresh the previous box office results and let our More and more people are enjoying the movie."
Regarding Zhou Shaoming¡¯s early development of the Chinese film market, Benjamin deeply felt that Zhou Shaoming had a long-term vision. Now in the share of the Chinese film market, it is obvious that the films of Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company account for a lot.
Especially the movies shot by Zhou Shaoming, every time they come to the Chinese film market, they can achieve very high box office results, causing many Chinese industry insiders to give Zhou Shaoming a new nickname! Big bad wolf.
Every time Zhou Shaoming¡¯s film is released in the Chinese film market, they always say:"The wolf is coming, the wolf is coming."
However, even if there is some dissatisfaction with Zhou Shaoming, Zhou Shaoming's movies are becoming more and more popular among Chinese audiences, especially after the two movies Iron Man and Kung Fu Panda were released!
Almost every Chinese audience remembers the name of Hollywood director Smith-Chow. Compared with other big-name Chinese directors, Director Smith-Chow is even more popular.
