Chapter 1447 Threat
After eight o'clock, during this prime time, the occupancy rate was more than half.
At 0:00 sharp, including the premiere box office of "The Iron Man" on the first day, the total box office was 31 million, which is a pretty good result.
However, compared to "Superman" which exceeded 54 million on its first day, it still fell behind and ranked second.
This is an acceptable result.
Not to mention advertising, just the box office. If the sales exceed 100 million in three days on the weekend, then recovering the cost will not be a problem, and you can still make a small profit.
So he became more relaxed.
In fact, "Superman" will not lose money, but it mainly depends on whether the reputation will collapse in the later period.
Of course, among those young writers, "Superman" is good. At least it explores human nature and adds depth to the story.
But we don’t know whether the audience who voted with money will agree or not.
An Ran is satisfied.
But neither Max nor Levin were satisfied.
The film invested 200 million, and the box office on the first day was not bad. However, with an investment of three times required to make back the original investment, there is a high probability that this film will only be able to break even in theaters.
Especially the lengthy dialogues and sermons were praised so much by a group of friends on Tomato.
But this kind of negative publicity is undoubtedly a blow to the head.
Most people are lay people and don’t like hearing and teaching.
Even for those young people, if you let an old woman buzz in their ears, they will want to hit them.
On the first day, "Superman" beat "The Iron Man" by a huge margin. The senior executives of Cordis Company were not too excited.
Where is the cost, and the group of literary youths are not helping, it is hard to say what will happen in the future.
The next day, "Superman" still dominated the box office, with a box office of 50 million, but the box office of "The Iron Man" also reached 36 million.
One falls while the other rises, and the gap is slowly narrowing.
Cinema owners are not philanthropists. Even if your Disney company is awesome, you can't stop me from making money, right?
On the second day, the film schedule rate was only fine-tuned by 2 points, and the film schedule rate for "Iron Man" was increased to 30%.
And "Superman" remains unchanged.
At this time, many people on the Internet have begun to say good things about "Bang Iron Man".
I just like to watch this kind of popcorn blockbusters, so do whatever you like.
The rating on Tomato.com has also increased from the original 58% favorable rating to 65%, exceeding the passing line. Let’s move on.
Wait until the end of the third day.
The most important statistical indicator is the three-day box office on weekends.
"Superman" topped the list with 154 million.
"The Iron Man" followed closely with 120 million.
Enron's movie did not overtake "Superman", but fell short of the box office by nearly 30 million.
But with this result, no one thought "The Iron Man" was bad, but they all thought it was unexpected.
On the day the movie was released, film critic Lewis made a comparison.
Not as good as investments, not as good as actors, not as good as companies...
Anyway, they are inferior to each other in various ways.
As soon as the result was released, not only did it not collapse as everyone predicted, but it also kept pace with Disney's big productions and did not fall behind.
Do you dare to believe this?
Those who wanted to see a joke were shocked. It seems that the combination of Lucas and Enron should not be underestimated.
Three days after the weekend, the working day came, and both movies fell off a cliff.
No one can stop the normal laws of the film market.
Until Friday, the first week’s box office will be released.
"Superman" ranked first with 220 million, while "The Iron Man" ranked second with 190 million.
After seeing this box office, Max immediately picked up the phone in the office.
The box office is better than others, but the gap is too small.
This shows that the comic book adaptation of Super Man is not very successful. I'm afraid it won't be a loss, but it's a bit disgusting to be chased by "The Iron Man" from behind.
The publicity was carried out with great fanfare, but people were not taken seriously at all beforehand.
As a result, the gap between others and myself is always just this small, no one would be angry if I changed him.
Or you can pass directly.
But it happens to be right behind you, hanging by such a small distance, it is simply disgusting and helpless.
Three weeks later, the box office of "Superman" was just over 500 million, and the box office of "The Iron Man" was 410 million.
There is no movement on their side, but good news has begun to be sent out over there.
"The box office of "The Iron Man" exceeded 400 million. So far, all costs have been recovered and profits have begun..."
Do you think it makes you angry?
Generally, those who give out good news at the box office are those who break records or the like.
What do you mean by giving a good news just for a box office of 400 million? Is this disgusting?
But you can’t say anything about this, and there’s no rule against letting people post it.
Especially if the company has already made a profit, you have no right to be dissatisfied, as you have not even recovered your own costs.
Levin calmed down, and instead calmly said to Max: "Max, don't pay too much attention to this kind of thing. If you suffer this loss, just remember it better next time."
Max nodded angrily.
Levin didn't say anything, he just went out and made a few phone calls.
Then on the last weekend, everyone suddenly discovered that the film schedule of "The Iron Man" had been severely reduced.
In fact, in the last week at this time, Enron estimated that it could collect 50 million box office, which would be considered a high price. However, after being compressed by other theaters, the box office was less than 30 million.
He didn't even need to think about it, he knew that the other party had done something.
Sure enough, I received a call from Levine in the afternoon.
"Mr. An Ran, I, Ah Xing, we need to have a good talk!"
An Ran smiled and said: "Mr. Levin, the film arrangement and compression is your handiwork, right? Have you forgotten that I am the major shareholder of AMR Cinemas, I can also compress your film arrangement..."
Levine laughed and said: "You won't do that. You have to be responsible for the shareholders. At the same time, our movies are making money, so you can't bear to compress the film schedule."
Enron said "hehe" twice, "Mr. Levin, we are just normal business competition. Do you really need to do this?"
Levin secretly laughed in his heart, what kind of normal business competition.
As long as he can hit the opponent, he is willing to try any method. The young man is still too young and inexperienced.
"No, you should thank me!" Levintian said shamelessly: "Actually, I could have suppressed your film arrangement from the beginning, but I didn't. I waited until you recovered the cost and made a fortune before taking action. I just gave
Just a warning, if this happens again next time, maybe your movie won’t be released in theaters at all..."
"You probably don't know how powerful Diss is!"
"I can show it in my own theater chain!"
"Then you can try!" Levin's voice became colder, "Xiazhou guy, you make me very annoying and disgusting. I suggest you get out of Xizhou, otherwise it won't be such a good thing next time.
”
"Mr. Levine, can I understand that you are threatening me?"
"No matter how you interpret it, I don't care!" Levin said solemnly: "I'm just telling you a fact...otherwise you will pay the price for it..."
