    Wan Xiaohu took his wife and children to watch the cartoon "Sammy's Adventures" on National Day.  And "Gravity" directed by himself will also be released in the mainland during the National Day on October 1st to participate in the competition for National Day slots.  Although the early reputation of "Gravity" has been overwhelming, although the space under the 3D lens is beautiful, and although the plot of the movie is simple but full of "gao chao", as a science fiction film with only two actors, Sasha still entertained  Choose to be conservative.  Exit this year¡¯s smoke-filled summer vacation.  After all, the competition in this year¡¯s summer season is so fierce, with so many blockbusters vying for time in these few months.  The highlight of the Marvel Cinematic Universe plan, "The Avengers" released by Sasha Entertainment; Warner Bros.'s flagship work in superhero movies, the third part of the Batman trilogy, "The Dark Knight Rises"  ;The first part of Sony Columbia's rebooted Spider-Man series, "The Amazing Spider-Man".  There are also several strong animated films such as "Brave", "Madagascar 3" and "Ice Age 4" disrupting the situation, as well as blockbusters such as "Men in Black 3" and "Snow White and the Huntsman" that have attracted attention from the beginning.  Unlike science fiction films, these films target the summer audience, and so do their production tastes.  In such an environment, it will definitely be difficult for "Gravity" to grab the box office, so changing the schedule and releasing it in the off-season of the film market is a very good idea.  In recent years, the films directed by Wan Xiaohu, especially science fiction films, have basically been released in the off-season, relying on word-of-mouth to create miracles, rather than sticking to summer releases.  As long as the movie is of high quality.  It can explode even in the off-season.  Since then, "Gravity" has participated in this year's National Day release in the Mainland.  With the expansion of the Chinese film market.  There are already more than 13,000 screens this year, and the market is enough to accommodate several movies.  Therefore, even if Wan Xiaohu¡¯s fame is suppressed, there are still a large number of domestic films and co-productions grabbing the National Day slots.  ¡°It¡¯s just a Hollywood science fiction film. Even if the director is Wan Xiaohu, it¡¯s nothing special in the Chinese market.¡± This is what many distributors think.  There were no Wan Xiaohu movies released in 2011, and these distributors have gradually forgotten Wan Xiaohu¡¯s majesty back then.  So this National Day, blockbusters are coming one after another.  They all started to fight hand to hand.  "Tai Chi 1: From Scratch" starring Chow Yun-fat, Liu Yifei and Alec Su will be released on the 26th, "Tai Chi 1: Starting from Scratch" starring Tony Leung Ka Fai, Anglebaby, Peng Yuyan, Feng Shaofeng, Shu Qi and Daniel Wu will be released on the 27th, and "Tai Chi 1: Starting from Scratch" starring Zhang Ziyi, Zhang Dongjian and Cecilia Cheung will be released on the same day.  "Dangerous Liaisons", the Hollywood low-budget science fiction film "Looper" starring Chinese actress Xu Qing will be released on the 28th, and "Double Exposure" starring Fan Bingbing and Feng Shaofeng will be released on the 29th.  In addition to the release of "Gravity" on October 1st, six blockbusters competed on the same stage in six days.  It can be called the most watched conference battle since the battle between the four famous directors Zhang Yimou, Liu Weiqiang, Tsui Hark and John Woo in the National Day movie in 2010.  Many media outlets have begun to hype up this war, and I don¡¯t know if they have received money. Many media outlets have begun to tout domestic films and co-produced Chinese films, claiming that they are going to defeat Hollywood.  This tiger and this Hollywood.  Naturally, it refers to Wan Xiaohu.  Some media, such as Southern Metropolis Daily, directly announced that Wan Xiaohu's Battle of Waterloo was coming.  And gave several reasons.  There is no luxury cast, although the leading actor Leonardo has a large number of fans.  The heroine Sandra won the Best Actress Oscar the year before last, but only two people.  Sandra completed most of the second half alone.  There are no big scenes of serial explosions. The special effects shots in space are indeed very cool, and the shattering of the space station is also very interesting. However, all the scenes are in space. There are no explosion effects on the earth, and there are no unpredictable backgrounds.  There are no Chinese stars to help out, no good schedules to enjoy alone, and even publicity can only rely on other people's evaluations, and it is impossible for actors to frequently appear on programs and interact with fans There are many reasons for "Southern Metropolis Daily" to judge  , "Gravity" will definitely fail, and the myth of Wan Xiaohu will definitely end. The best result will be evaluated as "acclaimed but not a hit" from time to time.  ¡­ To be honest, what "Southern Metropolis Daily" said is not unreasonable. There are too many movies that are both well-received and not popular, and the style of "Gravity" is too strong. There is really a trend of development in this direction.  ¡°This year¡¯s National Day festival is a bit dangerous, there are a lot of blockbusters.¡± In the cinema, Su Ya said to Wan Xiaohu with a little worry.  "Sammy's Adventures" hasn't started yet, and the trailer of "Dangerous Liaisons" is being shown. Wan Chengyang is holding popcorn and eating it happily, while Su Ya and Wan Xiaohu chat with each other.Wan Xiaohu made a nonchalant expression and said: "There's nothing to care about. "Gravity" has such a good reputation. It's time to stagger the summer schedule. There are no other movies that can compete with it. And the original audience is not very similar. "Gravity" is a science fiction film.  If you watch these movies, they are either romance movies or costume movies, and the audience does not overlap at all.¡± ¡°But there are too many movies in the schedule, and I don¡¯t know what these distributors think, because they insist on competing with you.  Afraid that others would accuse us of Golden Harvest Entertainment's monopoly, we didn't fight hard for the filming schedule of "Gravity" this time, and only received 38% of the first-day filming volume. This is your lowest opening-day filming volume in the past few years. " "Ouch.  Oh, my wife, your idea is too outrageous. Even if it accounts for 38%, "Gravity" is still the film with the largest number of films scheduled for National Day. Look at "Tongque Terrace" and "Tai Chi 1: From Scratch".  It¡¯s all about 20% of the film schedule. I have to give others some soup. Anyway, I don¡¯t really care about the box office now. It doesn¡¯t matter if I get 100 million more or less.¡± Wan Xiaohu adjusted to a comfortable level.  In the posture of holding Su Ya's waist, he dishonestly followed the hem of the clothes and touched it up: "To be honest, I hope that there will be a few good movies in China, which will defeat "Gravity"  "It's hard, looking at your confidence." "That's not necessarily the case. To be honest, Jiahe will invest in Xu Zheng's movie until the end of the year."  "Tai‡å" and "Twelve Zodiacs" written, directed and starred by Cheng Long. I am optimistic about the explosive box office performance of these two films. "I am also optimistic about Tai‡å. The investment is quite small."  "You don't understand. I am optimistic about Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, and Wang Baoqiang. Among domestic comedy actors, I admire these three people. Among directors, I admire Ning Hao. He has talent and ideas. If he polishes it, he can become a Chinese actor.  A mainstay of film comedy. ¡± Previous track.  Wan Xiaohu likes director Ning Hao very much, especially his "Crazy Stone".  It is undeniable that "Crazy Stone" heavily imitates "Two Smoking Barrels", but at least it completes a good story that combines earth and ocean.  The most important thing for a director is to tell a good story, and Ning Hao obviously knows how to tell a story. The subsequent "Crazy Racing", "Golden Heist" and "No Man's Land", although they have not achieved the sensational effect of "Crazy Stone"  .  But looking closely, in these movies, Ning Hao's grasp of the camera and rhythm is obviously getting better and better.  He is just a director in his thirties, and he still has a long journey as a director in the future.  ¡°If you keep doing it, you may not surpass Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang.  Become a leading figure among Chinese directors.  "Young directors are the hope of Chinese films. We should give young people a chance!" Wan Xiaohu said in a pretense manner while playing with his wife's delicate body. For the mediocre cartoon "Sammy Adventures", he  Not interested in.  I just came here to accompany my wife and son.  Su Ya wanted to knock off Wan Xiaohu¡¯s dirty hands, but she was afraid of making too big a move.  Wan Chengyang was alarmed and had no choice but to glare at Wan Xiaohu, who was so charming.  This is a lively movie-watching experience. ?¡­ ?Wan Xiaohu is enjoying his happiness leisurely, but for the several publishers competing for the slot of "Gravity", life is a bit difficult.  In the week before the National Day, "Tai Chi 1: From Scratch" defeated "Tongque Terrace" with 35 million at the box office with 36 million, and won the championship next week.  Before I had time to be happy, the National Day ended in the second week and I was immediately knocked back to my original shape.  Contrary to what everyone expected, "Gravity" was released on October 1st.  It took in 49 million yuan in a single day, surpassing the combined single-day box office of the other ten films.  On October 2nd, "Gravity" was another massacre, earning 46 million yuan in a single day.  On October 3, "Gravity" continued its success, with a box office of 47.5 million yuan in a single day and 142.5 million yuan in three days. It was much weaker than "Inception" back then, but considering that this movie has no Chinese actors,  The storyline is not as flashy as "Inception", and it is already a hit at the box office.  Three days later, the publisher who came to grab the National Day release really cried.  It¡¯s okay for the movie to be killed instantly. After all, the opponent is Wan Xiaohu. However, the three-day theater chain adjusted the film schedule. ¡°Gravity¡± jumped to 49.3%, accounting for almost half of the country. The rest is not enough for several movies.  And it¡¯s shameless to continue to hype the monopoly of ¡°Gravity¡±. In the past three days, we just couldn¡¯t kill ¡°Gravity¡± with hard swords and guns, so we can¡¯t blame the theaters for looking at ¡°money¡±.  In particular, "Dangerous Liaisons" starring Zhang Ziyi, Zhang Dongjian, and Cecilia Cheung was highly publicized at the beginning, starring the first of the four major actresses.  How many days will it take for the results to come out?, the box office was worth over 25 million, and the attendance dropped to the embarrassing level of 14 people in a single show.  The other shows are not much better, none of them average more than 25 people per game.  Only "Gravity" occupies the dominant position with an average of 79 visitors per game.  "Two years later, Wan Xiaohu reappeared, and "Gravity" made a shocking return! Proclaiming that he is still the absolute leader of commercial films!" "As soon as Wan Xiaohu comes out, who can compete with him!" "The rise of 3D science fiction blockbusters, the soul-shaking space  "Journey." "Wan Xiaohu has created an era, the pinnacle of space-themed movies!" ""Gravity" has been well-received and well-received, and he wants to regain the championship of the year!"  The haze has once again become the target of flattery in the eyes of the media.
