Chapter 566 A big hit at the box office

After the premiere ceremony, [Wolf Warrior 2] became even more popular.

The news media present at the scene praised the film in all aspects on the news pages the next day, and the film critics invited to the scene also wrote favorable reviews of "Wolf Warrior 2" on their Weibo.

After the premiere, theaters in major cities across the country, such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Shenzhen and other places, also started screening "Wolf Warrior 2".

Wu Jing and Gu Wei each took a part of the main creative team and divided their forces into two groups to go to the target city to run a road show and hold a fan meeting.

Deep city.

“Feedback from theaters shows that [Wolf Warrior 2]’s national film schedule will probably reach 20% on the first day of its release tomorrow, and it will reach over 50% on the second day on the 28th.

Currently, there is only one movie on the market, "The Founding of an Army", which was released at the same time as ours on the 27th, but their market feedback is far less than ours, and they are not very competitive."

After the road show ended, Yang Dan and Gu Wei reported on the scheduling data after the movie was released.

The reason why the film schedule on the first day was only 20% is because Wu Jing requested that [Wolf Warrior 2] be released at 8:01 pm on the 27th to pay tribute to the Army Day.

There is only 4 hours of screening time on the first day, but there is a 20% film scheduling rate throughout the day. In fact, during this short period of time in the evening, most of the films scheduled in movie theaters across the country will be for "Wolf Warrior 2".

"How's the feedback from the screenings these days?"

"Although Douban has not yet released a score, according to feedback from the company's marketing department, the current public opinion on the Internet is basically one-sided praise.

In addition to the news media and film critics, many viewers who watched the screening posted messages online praising [Wolf Warrior 2].”

Gu Wei nodded.

Although after he joined, [Wolf Warrior 2] has received far more attention than the original time and space.

But after all, the plot has some differences from the original version, and he is still a little unsure whether it can achieve the results of the original time and space.

But now it seems that everything is moving in the right direction.

The quality of the movie has improved compared to the original version, but the purpose of the movie has not changed. While it arouses the audience's patriotic feelings, it is also more popular with everyone.

"Where are the director and the others now?"

"Director Wu and Teacher Yu Zhan should go to Guangdong today. According to the plan, they will go to Shancheng tomorrow."

“Everything that needs to be done has been done, success or failure depends on tomorrow.”

"Don't worry too much. Our movie currently has such a good reputation and popularity, it will definitely sell well!"

Zhang Tianai looked gentle. She and Gu Wei's publicity team went on a road show. In the past few days, it was obvious that Gu Wei was worried about the future performance of the film.

Gu Wei has shot so many big-selling movies and has always been full of confidence. He has never worried about gains and losses like he does now.

"I understand, we will definitely succeed." Gu Wei turned his head and gave Zhang Tianai a reassuring smile.

At this point no one would know what he was worried about.

If this version of [Wolf Warrior 2] can finally have a box office of 2 billion or 3 billion, then everyone will think that this movie will be a hit.

Only Gu Wei himself knows that if the final box office cannot exceed 5 billion, it will be because of him.

After all, the performance of "Wolf Warrior 2" was too high, almost reaching the box office limit of a single film in the domestic film market.

Gu Wei never thought that his participation would bring the box office to a higher level.

It's not that he's not confident. The domestic film market is so big and the number of people watching movies is so large. No matter how strong his box office appeal is, he can't conjure more audiences out of thin air.

The original films he made in the past had a box office potential of 1 billion. He is confident that he can rely on his appeal to increase the box office by 500 million or more, because the market has potential, and Gu Wei's personal reputation has also continued to succeed over the years. Already established.

It can call on more viewers to go to the cinema, thereby increasing the box office performance of the film.

However, the box office performance of "Wolf Warrior 2" is too high. Almost all the viewers who can watch it have seen it, and many have even watched it twice or even three times.

No matter how famous Gu Wei is, it can only make the box office data in the early stage of the movie's release better. He himself is not confident whether it can make the final box office results even better.

But he couldn't say this to anyone.

Now if it is said that the target box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" is 5 billion, then everyone will think that he is talking nonsense. Even director Wu Jing's current expectations for the movie's box office may only be more than 1 billion.

Time flies and the 27th comes soon.

[Wolf Warrior 2] will be released on time at 8:01 pm in theaters across the country.

Beijing Wanda Cinema.

"Hurry up, I finally grabbed the tickets online!"

"I'd say you just have free time. If you can't buy anything right now, just watch it in a few days. It's just a movie."

"What do you know? This is Gu Wei's first action military film. The reviews online have it very well!"

"It's okay for those little girls to like Gu Wei, how come you, a man, are also chasing stars?"

"What about chasing stars? I just like the movies and TV series produced by Gu Wei. His movies have never let me down. Watching movies based on his reputation will definitely not be a loss. They are definitely not bad movies. At least they are worth the money." price"

At 8:01, "Wolf Warrior 2" is shown in several halls of the cinema at the same time. There are still 15 minutes left, and a long queue has already formed outside the cinema.

At the sales window, the staff selling drinks and popcorn are also always busy.

Ticket checking began, and this wave of spectators entered the venue one after another. The flow of people in the hall instantly decreased a lot.

"It's only Thursday, why are there so many people!" After filling the last customer with drinks and popcorn, the young man in uniform breathed a sigh of relief.

"What else could be the reason? [Wolf Warrior 2] is released.

Which of Gu Wei's movies is not like this?" The colleague next to him replied.

"There are so many people. Are all the movies tonight full?"

“Well, the attendance rate is almost 100%.

Tomorrow is Friday, followed by weekends, so we are very busy these days."

On the 28th, in the hotel room.

The ringtone of the mobile phone woke up the sleeping person.

"Yes, I understand. Today we will continue as planned. I will discuss it with Director Wu later to see if we need to extend the itinerary."

Gu Wei hung up the phone, threw the phone aside, and waved vigorously, unable to conceal the excitement in his heart.

Then he lowered his head and kissed Zhang Tianai's pink and white face hard.

".What's wrong? It's so early in the morning."

Zhang Tianai, who was still sleeping soundly, was woken up by Gu Wei's big move. He frowned slightly and muttered something dissatisfied.

"[Wolf Warrior 2]'s box office exceeded 100 million in the first four hours, reaching 146 million yuan. The current real-time box office has exceeded 200 million, and it has only been less than 12 hours."

"real?

Our movie is going to be a big hit! "

Zhang Tianai was originally drowsy and sleepy, but he immediately became energetic after hearing Gu Wei's words.

She has been making movies over the years and knows exactly what this data represents.

In 2016, the movie "The Richest Man in Xihong City" that she participated in sold 2 billion yuan at the box office, and the box office on the first day was only 190 million yuan.

The box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" exceeded 200 million in 12 hours. As long as the reputation does not collapse, it is entirely possible that the final result will exceed that of "The Richest Man in Xihong City".

"It's a sure success, it just depends on how far it goes."

"Isn't this result better than your movie [Tang Detective 2] last summer?" Zhang Tianai suddenly asked curiously.

"Indeed, the results are better than the initial results of [Tang Detective 2]."

"Could it be that the box office of our movie [Wolf Warrior 2] can exceed 3 billion?" Zhang Tianai was a little unbelievable.

At present, there are only two domestic movies with a box office of more than 3 billion, "Tang Detective 2" and "Mermaid".

If the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" exceeds 3 billion, it will become the third highest-grossing movie in the country.

"Haha~ There is no problem with exceeding 3 billion, but you might as well be a little bolder."

Zhang Tianai thought for a while after listening to his words, and then shook his head.

"The box office of 3 billion is already an astronomical figure to me. I really don't dare to think of it being higher."

Gu Wei smiled and turned around to press Zhang Tianai under him.

"Ugh. It's so early in the morning. Why don't you get up? Don't delay today's schedule."

"I just checked the time, it's too late~

How can we not celebrate such good news?"

"."

On the 28th, the second day after the release of "Wolf Warrior 2", the national film schedule accounted for 56%, and the comprehensive box office accounted for as high as 77%, with a total box office of 268 million.

Then on the weekends of 29th and 30th, [Wolf Warrior 2] received super high box office of 342 million and 387 million respectively.

So far, [Wolf Warrior 2] has received a total of 1.143 billion yuan in box office in the first four days of its release.

The summer movie has been completely hit by [Wolf Warrior 2].

After entering the working day, the performance of [Wolf Warrior 2] is still strong, with a daily increase of more than 250 million on Monday and Tuesday, which is shocking.

The overwhelming box office, coupled with the strong support from good reputation, has caused the film schedule of "Wolf Warrior 2" to be in a negative growth trend for five consecutive days, and it is currently close to 60%.

The high-ranking films have further increased the box office of the movie, creating a positive cycle.

[Wolf Warrior 2] can have such a brilliant performance, which is inseparable from its high reputation and the support of the audience.

More than 740,000 viewers rated Maoyan. "Wolf Warrior 2" ranked first among Chinese films with a high score of 9.7. "Wolf Warrior 2" was "burning", "shocked", "proud" and "a super blockbuster". 】 "high-frequency vocabulary".

One week after its release, the audience of "Wolf Warrior 2" has covered all age groups and social groups. The audience unanimously spoke highly of the movie. The lines such as "There is a strong motherland behind you" on the passport page at the end of the film are even more popular. It aroused the craze of Amway among the people.

【It exploded! The plot is fast-paced and compact. It was enjoyable to watch throughout the whole process, but it was also very tense. The villain in it killed people whenever he said he wanted to.

Gu Wei and Wu Jing's acting is so wonderful, this is what a domestic action blockbuster should be! 】

[The style is a bit similar to the "Operation Mekong" filmed by Gu Wei before, but the scenes are grander and the fighting is more intense. Wu Jing is very suitable for playing a soldier, and Gu Wei's action scenes are simply stunning! 】

【Very burning! The war scenes are magnificent and the fights between people are exciting! It makes people excited to fight for their compatriots! 】

[Sure enough, Gu Wei has never let me down. With his addition, the quality of "Wolf Warrior 2" is obviously much higher than that of the first film.

The Chinese also have their own superheroes, who are on fire throughout! 】

[The fighting scenes are still very exciting. When it comes to personal heroism, isn’t this the formula of American blockbusters? However, there are still areas worthy of scrutiny in the plot, and some areas are a bit exaggerated, but the flaws are not outweighed.]

[Perhaps, you will never know how strong a sense of security your motherland has given you; perhaps, you will one day find that you also love your motherland deeply! 】

[A movie to judge whether it has double standards: it has all the routines of the American main theme, and it is trying to learn the specialties of the American main theme, but there is still some distance.

But using the methods commonly used and forced to use in mainstream commercial films to criticize their shortcomings is a matter of double standards of values ​​and aesthetic standards - Americans treat cars like airplanes, but what's wrong with the Chinese filming a tank drifting? 】

[It was really exciting. Even though it was already very late, the whole place was still full. It was so exciting. We can be so stable because someone protects us from danger and the cold! 】

【.】

[Wolf Warrior 2] is completely popular. On August 1st, Army Day, there will be a grand military parade in Zhurihe.

RM Daily publishes news reports about movies on the main page.

# When the Wolf Warriors appear, who can compete with us? Let our army defend our country and protect our country! #

"Like Zhu Rihe's military parade, [Wolf Warrior 2] also inspired strong resonance among domestic audiences with its vigorous posture, heroic spirit, and patriotic enthusiasm!"

After the official media expressed its stance, major domestic media also reported on the movie. For a time, discussions about "Wolf Warrior 2" were everywhere online and offline.

"Brother Jing, I have to go back to the crew. This trip took me a lot of time. If I don't go back to the director, I really can't explain it."

The national road show ended and the main creators met in Beijing. At this time, the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" has exceeded 2 billion, and it is still soaring at a rate of at least 200 million every day.

Wu Jing has been in a state of excitement these days. After watching the real-time box office every day, he has to confirm with people around him that [Wolf Warrior 2] has brought him such a big surprise that he feels like an ordinary person. People win jackpot every time they buy lottery tickets, which makes people wonder if they are dreaming.

After returning to the capital, Wu Jing proposed taking advantage of the popularity of the movie to continue arranging fan meetings in large and medium-sized cities across the country, striking while the iron is hot, and helping the box office to reach a higher level.

Gu Wei had no objection, but it would be unreasonable if he didn't go back to [Wandering Earth].

"It's okay, I know your crew still has scenes to shoot, so leave it to me later.

Let me tell Director Guo when I get back to the set, and I will join the set for filming after I finish this part."

At present, [Wolf Warrior 2] has formed a movie-watching craze, and has been widely discussed by the public as a hot social event.

Many professionals in the industry have raised the final box office estimate of "Wolf Warrior 2" to 3.5 billion yuan at this time, and some people believe that "Wolf Warrior 2" may surpass "Tang Detective 2" to become the new box office champion.

China Film.

"Gu Wei, a young man, can really surprise people. Where do you expect [Wolf Warrior 2] to be at the box office?"

La Peikang looked at the various real-time data about [Wolf Warrior 2] brought up by his subordinates, and asked the old subordinate in front with a smile.

Although China Film Investment did not invest much money, they joined in after all at the invitation of Gu Wei. Mr. La is also one of the producers of "Wolf Warrior 2". This kind of blockbuster with the main theme is the best for him. political achievements.

As for how much money he makes, he doesn't care.

"According to the current trend, the forecast given by professionals in the group is 4.5 billion."

"so tall?

I’ve seen a lot of news saying that reaching 4 billion would be great.”

Xu Jianhai, the head of China Film Beijing Film Production Branch and the producer of "The Wandering Earth" smiled.

"Actually, according to normal movie box office trends, it would be enough to reach 3.5 billion. The key point is that [Wolf Warrior 2] is obviously abnormal.

This movie has broken the circle.

Judging from the current movie viewing data, public opinion has driven people from all walks of life, including men, women, old and young, to enter theaters, even those who have no movie-going habits.

This is also the reason why the box office trend of [Wolf Warrior 2] is so strong now."

“If the box office of [Wolf Warrior 2] can exceed 4.5 billion, then China Film Group owes Gu Wei a small favor.

After all, we didn’t do anything. After filming the movie, Gu Wei gave us a chance to share the cake.

Money comes second, the main thing is that this achievement is what China Film Group needs."

"hehe.

We have always cooperated happily with [Wei Mingxia], and the Han family daughter is also with him.

Her campus movie also had good reviews and box office.

Mr. Han was very happy last month."

"Ha ha.

At his age, there is nothing more satisfying than seeing his children succeed.

[Wandering Earth] How was the filming over there? "

Mr. La remembered again the huge investment science fiction blockbuster he collaborated with [Wei Mingxia]. Now [Wolf Warrior 2] is a hit, he is even more looking forward to [The Wandering Earth], the collaboration between Gu Wei and Wu Jing again.

"Everything went well during the filming, but it was quite hard. Wu Mengda was admitted to the hospital some time ago because of his old age and poor health.

But Guo Fan has already dealt with it, and he promised me that similar things will not happen again in the future. "

La Peikang frowned.

"Although movies are important, talent is fundamental. I need to emphasize this with Guo Fan."

"What the leader said is

In addition to the filming of the crew, many film and television companies in the industry have recently contacted me, hoping to invest in [The Wandering Earth]."

"Haha~

They thought very well. They used to dislike domestic science fiction films, but now they see that the cooperation between Gu Wei and Wu Jing is so good and want to come in and eat meat. How can it be so easy?

[Wei Mingxia] What do you say over there? "

“Gu Wei’s opinion is that no matter who it is, reject it first, and wait until the film is finished to decide whether to add a producer.

He doesn’t care about money, he mainly cares about the resources other companies can provide.”

“Then let’s do this for now.

It’s a pity that when [The Founding of the Army] invited Gu Wei, he didn’t come, otherwise he wouldn’t have only made 300 million at the box office now, which is still a fraction of [Wolf Warrior 2]’s.”

Xu Jianhai opened his mouth but said nothing.

"The Founding of an Army", which was released on the same day as "Wolf Warrior 2", had no pay. The actors were paid zero, but the investment was as high as 200 million, which is almost the same as "Wolf Warrior 2". However, the box office is currently only over 300 million. According to the current situation Trend, breaking 400 million is almost the limit.

This theme-themed blockbuster jointly funded by China Film, Bona and the Gan Provincial Government is considered a loss.

Bona Films.

Yu Dong was in pain and happiness at the same time. He lost money in "The Great Cause of Army Building", but made money in "Wolf Warrior 2". Although he didn't make much money, his reputation was not small.

“It’s a pity that [Operation Red Sea] Gu Wei is not here, otherwise it is very likely to replicate the miracle of [Wolf Warrior 2].

After all, we have the foundation of [Operation Mekong], Director Lin, your second collaboration with Gu Wei will definitely set off a new movie-watching craze."

"There is no way, Gu Wei doesn't have time, and [Operation Red Sea] does tend to be a bit more team-based and less individual heroism. Gu Wei may also have concerns in this regard."

Lin Chaoxian was very emotional when he saw the crazy box office results of [Wolf Warrior 2], and regretted not being able to invite Gu Wei.

"The script can be changed. Isn't that what [Operation Mekong] did in the first place? Everyone has seen the results."

"Forget it, the movie has been filmed, there is no use talking about it. At least Zhang Tianai is very popular now, and it can be used as a selling point when [Operation Red Sea] is released in the future."

Yu Dong nodded.

"If I have time, I have to ask Gu Wei to come out for dinner again. If it doesn't work this time, there will be another time. He is also a shareholder of Bona now. We are all family, and it is always right to cooperate to make money."
