At first, I just wanted to make money

It is encircling and suppressing "Hedong Lion's Roar 2"...

Of course, what the company's publishing department said was, 'The market performance of "Nine-Storey Demon Tower" exceeded expectations, and we have to set aside a week'...

It's normal to adjust the schedule...

"The Nine-story Demon Tower" has indeed exceeded expectations - the film cost 9500 million, it is Hu Bayi's one-man show, the Iron Triangle, Fatty Wang and Shirley Yang only appear in the opening title once, it is a friendly cameo...

According to the distribution department's estimate, the box office should be around 3.5 million.

Then, the box office exceeded [-] million within ten days of release!

It can only be said that the IP power of "Ghost Blowing Lantern" is indeed powerful...

After the release of "Anti-Drug", the box office on the first day was only 1100 million. After all, the starring cast, including the director, have not made a hit for a long time!
Chen Musheng's last movie was "City Alert", which reached a new level of badness. Even in his career, it was the worst movie...

This time, "Anti-drugs" has obviously put a lot of effort into it!

It has a modern anti-drug shell that is more compatible with social rules and Jianghu loyalty. The movie has a Wu Yusen flavor. The gunfight scenes and brotherly love make it more like a Jianghu film.

The process of anti-narcotics is just a background, and what we are talking about is the conflicts within human nature.

In other words, when Hong Kong films first went north, they obviously underestimated the aesthetic standards of mainland audiences and believed that shoddy film products could satisfy mainland fans.

After suffering multiple positive and negative slaps in the mainland market, Hong Kong film brands began to make steady progress and regain their accurate positioning in the mainland market.

In the face of mainland censorship, Hong Kong filmmakers have gradually figured out how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

"Sweeping Drugs" is it!

The police have not changed, the gangsters have become drug tycoons far away in Thailand, the society is harmonious, and the police are powerful.

Shen Xudong really likes "Anti-Drug". As a Hong Kong film fan, it is really enjoyable to see such a gunfight movie in the cinema. Putting aside the flaws in the script, this feeling is intoxicating; It's all over the top, it's all crazy." This is definitely a shortcoming of Hong Kong films, but it may not be its advantage.

By the way, the Hong Kong movies of the following years such as "Drug", "Chasing the Dragon", and "Walker" all have one thing in common: the first one was so good that they made a second one, but the second one couldn't surpass the first one. …

In addition, "Sweeping Drugs 2" can get a high box office of more than one billion, which largely accounts for the light of "Sweeping Drugs"...

Back to the topic, after the release of "Anti-Drug", although it failed to break the single-day box office championship of "Nine-Storey Demon Tower", it firmly occupied the second place due to its good reputation, with sales of around 1500 million on several working days. Then August 8th came...

……

"Hedong Lion Roar 2" is really bad!
Original Time and Space, the film's box office in the first two weeks was 6808 million, with a total box office of 7087 million...

In other words, 90% of the box office was contributed in the first two weeks!
This is simply scarier than "Tiny Times" - "Tiny Times" had 2.68 million in the first week, 1.5 million in the second week, a total of 4.2 million, and a total box office of 4.84 million!
"Tiny Times" is a fan film.

"Hedong Lion Roar 2" completely ruined "Hedong Lion Roar", a movie that showed women's independent consciousness and modern spirit.

The plot is insane.

It is no longer the story of Liu Yue'e and Chen Jichang that has become a gossip, but a bold adaptation of the love story of Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying, with Xiao Shenyang's Dongfang Mingliang without makeup, and Zhang Baizhi as Wang Yueying...

But the problem is that it broke away from the original story logic of "The Lion of the East" and adapted it into a nonsense. The plot is a mess and the emotional line is fragmented and irrelevant.

Let's put it this way, this movie is so bad that it makes you want to poke your eyes out!I feel sorry for Huang Weide's normal performance. However, he has always been cold-faced like Governor Zhou Yu in "Three Kingdoms". Fortunately, he has been consistent and never gave up halfway.Even when he acted with the unattractive little Shenyang, he was not taken to the ditch.

However, how can an actor compete with an entire team that is second-rate, from the screenwriter to the director to the leading actors and actresses?

Destroy it!
"Hedong Lion Roar 2" relied on the strong appeal of "Hedong Lion Roar" on its first day of release to fetch 1600 million at the box office, surpassing "Anti-Drug" and also surpassing "Nine-Storey Demon Tower" which was released for 15 days, winning the box office The single-day box office champion, Bona was so happy that he quickly announced that "The Lion Roar 2" grossed nearly 2000 million on the first day of release! ', 'Little Shenyang and Cecilia Cheung love freshness in "Hedong Lion Roar 2"...

Yu Dong was interviewed and said, "The market needs comedy and romance films. "Hedong Lion Roar 2" is the only comedy romance film in the summer season. We are confident that it will create a box office miracle!"We must respect the laws of the market! '

As for Shen Xudong's public diss, he said, "I have no personal relationship with Shen Xudong. He does not participate in many activities and cannot meet in person. However, I feel that he is a bit conceited!" '

tsk...

After I finished speaking, the next day, "Anti-Drug" had a box office of 2300 million, while "Hedong Lion Roar 2" only had 1100 million;
Going a step further on the third day, the box office of "Anti-Drug" is still around 2000 million, while the box office of "Hedong Lion Roar 2" on Sunday is only 800 million...

Obviously, word of mouth has an impact!

Yes, the word-of-mouth effect on the Internet is not that fast at this stage, but the word-of-mouth effect of "Sweeping Drugs" is very good...

After "Hedong Lion Roar 2" was released, Douban scored 3.3 points, and Time.com scored 2.9 points...

After entering the working day, "Anti-Drug" continued to lead, and the second place was replaced by "Nine-Story Demon Tower". Although it only had 600 million, "Hedong Lion Roar 2" had even less, with a box office of 300 million on weekdays...

Yu Dong started to get anxious...

Because "Wolong" will be released the day after tomorrow!

Looking at it this way, it would be great if "Hedong Lion Roar 2" could have a box office of 5000 million...

However, the cost of "Hedong Lion Roar 2" is high, and Zhang Baizhi's salary alone is 1200 million!
Before "Wolong" was released, Yu Dong said again, "Chinese movies should not fight among themselves!"Meaningless infighting is harmful to the Chinese film industry!'

'Why can Hollywood blockbusters cross mountains and rivers and sail across oceans to our side and still win the market and win battles, while our movies can only be good at home and fail miserably when they go out?Our so-called "blockbusters" are still far away from others. We have no pride at all and no qualifications to fight among ourselves! '

'Three movies are released together. Cinemas have no choice, and audiences have no choice. The media is speculating and trolls are criticizing, which is very harmful to the film industry! '

Tianmei Media, including Shen Xudong, ignored his idea at all. On August 8, the last film in the Three Kingdoms series, "Wolong", was released. The box office on the first day was 13 million, the next day was 6700 million, and the third day was Friday, with a single-day box office of 7700 million. On the fourth day, the box office on Saturday was 8400 million, and on the fifth day, it was 1.07 million...

The first-week box office was 4.33 million, breaking the first-week box office record of 2 million just set by "Painted Skin 2.7".

Of course, the so-called first week of "Wolong" is five days...

The first week of "Titanic 3D" was 6 days, with a box office of 4.68 million yuan.

However, "Wolong" will definitely exceed 10 billion - there will be no rivals in the next half month, there will be only one "Cold War", which will be released on the Chinese Valentine's Day on August 8, so it will have little impact...

Most importantly, the 'market' needs a domestic film worth over one billion!
"Wolong" has a box office of 4.33 million US dollars in its first week. By the way, Southeast Asia has achieved a box office of 900 million US dollars in its first week...

Not surprisingly, the Southeast Asian box office of "Wolong" will hit a new high in the history of Chinese-language films!
In addition, the box office in Taiwan, Hong Kong and the Middle East is also good. Together, the first week revenue was US$1300 million...

Shen Xudong gathered all these together and then posted on Weibo: "We can't fight among ourselves, we can adjust the schedule. The summer schedule is only two months. It's still embarrassing for the audience. Is it embarrassing for the audience?"
