Chapter 1386 Box office rises against the market trend
"You two, what's the matter with you?" An Ran looked at the two of them with horror.
Li Shangsheng's face showed excitement, "Mr. An, is it time to put a sequel to this movie on the agenda?"
"???"
Sequel? A sequel!
"The Rise of the Invincible East" is simply not on the same level as the current one, and the plot rhythm is much less exciting.
What's even more terrible is that forcibly resurrecting and forcibly creating Xue Qianxun is a bunch of messy things, put together, and it is very embarrassing for people watching.
He doesn't want to make the same mistake again.
He waved his hand and said, "There is no sequel!"
Li Shangsheng was shocked, "Mr. An, think about it carefully. I can't stop watching this movie even if it costs 1.5 billion. If you make a sequel while the iron is hot, it will sell at least 1 billion!"
"One billion?" An Ran sneered, do you think the audience is being taken advantage of?
Are you thinking about cutting leeks?
"Director Li, the movie Eastern Invincible is dead. Linghu Zhong has withdrawn from the world. What sequel is there? I don't want to ruin the reputation just to make money."
"Word-of-mouth is not easy to accumulate, but it shouldn't be too easy to destroy it! We have to take a long-term view!"
Li Shangsheng and Li Jiahui looked at each other, as if they were too eager for quick success, but seeing how popular this IP was, it was a bit unwilling to vote against him.
At the same time, the two of them sincerely admired An Ran.
What they just said is not a joke. If there is a sequel, because of Enron's name and the quality of the previous work, it will be no different at the box office.
Especially since there is only one new martial arts movie now, everyone is very excited and the novelty has not worn off yet.
The second part will be released in time. As long as the fight is lively, not to mention too much, seven or eight billion will definitely not escape.
Seventy-eight billion is money!
Not a tadpole!
An Ran was able to hold back and remain unmoved, preferring not to make money to ruining his own brand.
This must be judged from the nature of a person, and he must have very noble moral sentiments to do it.
Li Shangsheng and the two were in awe.
If it were them, they would definitely not be able to do it, and even if they were scolded, it would only be temporary.
Especially since Enron has such a good foundation up front, if it occasionally releases a not-so-good movie, the audience will most likely choose to forgive it.
An Ran waved to the two of them, "If you have nothing to do, go out and follow me to Lin'an in two days."
"Okay!"
Seeing that they could not persuade An Ran, the two had no choice but to leave with regret.
An Ran stayed here for two more days because he wanted to relax. After all, he had been busy for so long and it was time to relax.
After Chen Yue's article came out.
The box office on that day rose to 12 million, which is naturally incomparable to when it was first released.
But after ten days, we can still achieve this result, which is actually quite good.
Unexpectedly, the next day the number was not 15 million as everyone predicted, but suddenly jumped to 18 million.
Chen Yue's article has fermented.
When it comes to how many people come for the second brush, in fact, everyone shouts loudly, but not many people actually come for the second brush.
Of course, except Neptune.
But these two articles aroused everyone’s curiosity.
Those who were already disappointed with martial arts are filled with hope again.
People who are not interested in martial arts movies are also interested.
To be honest, the box office of 1 billion is very impressive, but the number of moviegoers has not reached the critical point.
Xiazhou's box office record is "Zhan Feng" five years ago, with a box office of more than 7 billion, and no movie has yet been able to break it.
It is conceivable that there is still little box office potential to be tapped.
But ordinary movies do not have this potential, but this one is not included. This is a movie that, looking back thirty years later, will not be outdated in terms of plot or martial arts.
Nature has such strong potential.
On the third day, because it was Wednesday, it was the worst time at the box office, and it only had 20 million.
The trend of rising against the market trend is very obvious.
On Thursday, it grew to 25 million.
This has caused major theater chains to start increasing their film schedules, from the original 7% to 13%!
However, everyone feels that this upward momentum should come down in a day or two.
Because on Friday night, Hanhai Entertainment's "Escape from Flying Island" was released, and Yindu Film and Television's gunfight blockbuster "Emergency Call" was also released on the same day.
These two films are both large-scale productions with an investment of over 500 million, and they are very leisurely.
In the three days of the weekend, under the strong suppression, even if "Swordsman" has risen, it is still at the end of its efforts.
Few people think how long this trend of going against the current will last.
Friday!
Box office 32 million.
By Saturday, "The Swordsman" suddenly hit a box office of 55 million, which was shocking.
It had been hovering around the fifth or sixth place, but by the weekend it suddenly jumped to third place.,
Second only to the newly released "Escape" and "Emergency Call"!
"Escape" is a magical blockbuster that brings together many stars. It grossed 1.1 billion at the box office on Saturday, ranking first.
"Emergency Call" earned 90 million, ranking second.
As for "Swordsman", everyone was surprised.
As a movie that has been in theaters for two weeks, it suddenly regains its brilliance and rushes to the third position, which still makes everyone a little bit unbelievable.
Chen Yue and Liu Hai's interpretation of the movie on the Internet has made many people more and more curious about the movie.
On Sunday, the box office of "The Swordsman" surged to 62 million, making the second-placed "Emergency Call" feel cold on the buttocks and feel a tightness in the anus.
I almost got my anus fucked.
With "The Swordsman" at the forefront, the two movies will inevitably be compared.
This comparison shows the difference.
Anyone who comments on these two movies will definitely mention "The Swordsman", even if it is just a sentence or two, it will be unbearable.
Because I praised "The Swordsman", but I didn't hesitate to criticize these two movies.
This matter made An Ran puzzled for a while.
I originally planned to return to Lin'an, District, to host the filming of "The Legend of the White Snake," but it turned out I couldn't go back.
The box office has been very good these days, so maybe something else will happen.
He can't just let it go.
Finally, on Monday, everyone’s box office dropped back.
But amid the decline, "Swordsman" appears to be particularly strong. Even on working days, it earns 20 million yuan every day.
What the hell are you waiting for!
An Ran immediately called Yu Miaosi and applied for an extension of the release date of "The Swordsman".
That is, key extension.
Xiazhou is different from Earth. The release time of a movie here is 25 days, while it is 1 month in China on Earth.
Enron applied for the first 15-day extension.
The box office is so good, there is no reason not to extend it.
Theaters also give face, and the film schedule is always maintained at around 15%.
On the third weekend, no other new films were released.
"Swordsman" actually created a miracle in the history of film...
Three weeks after its release, it regained the box office title despite the release of new films!
The film and television industry was in an uproar. Is this something that humans did?
Chapter completed!
