Chapter 250 249. The box office of "Youth" exceeded 50 million

"Um, I heard that the box office of "Youth" exceeded 50 million?"

After the closing banquet, the two returned to the hotel room, and Liu Tianxian suddenly chatted about the box office of "Youth".

"Yeah", Wei Wu nodded and said:

"After all, when the May Day holiday ended, the box office had already exceeded 40 million, and it took two weeks to break 50 million. In fact, it was already very slow!

"But this movie will be released in a week, and the final box office is estimated to be around 52 million!"

In fact, Liu Tianxian is more concerned about the box office of "To Youth" than Wei Wu.

There is no other reason than that the heroine of this movie is Yang Mi.

Yang Mi stole the show in this May Day season and even in May as a whole.

"To Youth" landed in major theaters on April 30 with a super high screening rate of 35%, and its premiere box office reached 4.45 million.

Of course, just like the National Day period, the May Day movie box office mainly depends on the seven days of Golden Week.

The film earned 5.88 million, 7.56 million, 6.7 million, 4.95 million, 3.87 million, 2.64 million, and 3.75 million respectively in the seven days of the May Day holiday.

The seven-day May Day Golden Week grossed a total of 35.35 million box office, plus the first-day box office of 4.45 million and the advance screening box office of 350,000, the cumulative box office reached 40.15 million.

Being able to have such a high film schedule and such good opening results is of course mainly due to the fact that this is the first film of the "Bad Monkey 72 Project".

Secondly, Wei Wu wrote the script himself and acted as the producer to control the quality.

What's more, the "Bad Monkey 72 Transformation Plan" was so huge back then, and everyone wanted to know whether it was a mule or a horse?

It can be simply understood that this is based on Wei Wu's reputation as a guarantee, and only these theaters and audiences are willing to buy this.

Otherwise, would Xue Xiaolu, a novice director, and the purely mainland lineup, starring Liu Ye + Yang Mi + Lu Yi, be worthy of this kind of treatment?

After the film was released, overall the reviews exceeded expectations. Most people felt that this was a movie above the standard and that it was worth the money spent after watching it.

Mainly because youth movies are so popular now, so most of the people who went to see this movie went to see it for the youth movies.

And this movie is also a pure youth movie, there is no such thing as selling someone else's meat, so most people feel that it is a worthwhile trip after watching it.

Although it is indeed slightly worse than "Those Years", this is normal.

After all, no one who bought a ticket to watch this movie went there with the expectation that this movie would be better than "Those Years."

Just kidding, any new director could surpass Wei Wu! So is he still worthy of being among the top four directors in the Mainland?

"Well", Wei Wu poured himself a glass of water, and then looked at Liu Tianxian:

"Do you want it?"

Liu Tianxian nodded, so Wei Wu also poured her a glass and handed it to her.

"Thank you." Liu Tianxian took it and suddenly asked:

"Have you ever thought before that this movie would have such a high box office?"

Wei Wu nodded and said, "Well, it's about the same as my estimate. I predict that the final box office of this movie will be around 50 million."

In fact, this box office is already exaggerated!

Combined with the annual box office rankings of the previous life in 2007, a box office of 50 million can even rank tenth in the year.

The ninth-ranked film of the year was Er Dongsheng's "The Disciple," starring Andy Lau, Wu Yanzui, and Zhang Jingchu, with a box office of 65 million.

The eighth movie of the year is even more famous, that is the famous "007: Casino Royale", with a box office of 92.71 million.

"To Youth" can be ranked behind these two movies. Isn't this achievement enough to be proud of?

However, "To Youth" was originally the third runner-up in 2013. Moving forward to 6 years ago, the ranking dropped to 10th in the year, which can only be regarded as normal performance.

Yang Mi's movie has done so well at the box office, which naturally makes Liu Tianxian a little anxious:

"You have already seen our finished film "The Left Ear", right?"

Wei Wu nodded and said, "It's almost the same. I've seen the simplified version, but it's not the final version for review yet."

Liu Tianxian then asked: "Then what do you think?"

Wei Wu thought for a moment and said, "It's okay. It's a 7-minute movie. It's a little bit more bloody than "Youth", but it has a slightly stronger story!"

After all, Lu Yang is a professional director, and his basic skills are better than Su Youpeng, who became a monk at the time. This version of "Left Ear" has slightly stronger graphics and rhythm than the original film.

But the biggest problem with this movie is that the plot is too bloody!

But Wei Wu has no choice, because this movie is adapted from a best-selling book.

The original novel is so bloody, but if it weren’t for that, so many people wouldn’t read it!

Basically, most of the popular youth pain literature on the market today is famous for its cruelty. This is their characteristic!

If you make drastic cuts and make the movie less bloody, then the movie’s box office will basically be ruined! The reputation may get even worse!

Liu Tianxian then realized: "Then do you think our "Left Ear" will be able to surpass "To Youth" at the box office by then?"

"This", Wei Wu said thoughtfully:

"It's hard to say. I can only say that there is a good chance, but I don't dare to guarantee it."

Wei Wu said and raised his eyebrows at her:

"Just be assured! Even if the box office of "Left Ear" cannot exceed "So Young", it won't be much different."

"Yeah," Liu Tianxian nodded with mixed feelings.

After chatting here, Wei Wu went to take a shower.

Liu Tianxian turned on the computer and began to browse the discussion area of ​​"So Young" on Tianya Forum. Unexpectedly, the article made her smile:

"Only good-looking people have 'youth', and other people can only go to school."

Liu Tianxian couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, and then continued to read:

"My youth is in test papers, exercises and novels."

"The first half is very smooth, the second half is a bit stuck, but the flaws do not cover the merits, and the overall production level is four stars. Judging from the performance of the actors, Xue Xiaolu's preliminary exam results are very good. By the way, Yang Mi will be popular!"

"First of all, Zheng Wei is too noisy and is not the type I appreciate. Second, girls who chase boys too actively make me look down. Moreover, Chen Xiaozheng did not make a mistake, but just can't speak."

"To be honest, although Zheng Wei is not My favorite type, but Yang Mi did a good job! "

"I was very touched. We all became the people we hate. The male and female protagonists in the movie are not us in real life,"

"I have to say that this is definitely not a bad movie, because there are more or less shadows of myself in it. I have been happy, stupid, confused, and cried, which is enough to remind us of our youth that will eventually pass away."

"Youth can be stupid, but love cannot be cheap."

"After watching the movie, I feel that the director wants to express too many things, and 2 hours is not enough. There are too many characters, half of whom are real and down-to-earth, and the other half are twisted and pretentious. But everyone's ending is very sad."

"There is a shadow of memories. Everyone has their own destiny! The line that impressed me the most is: "Are you crazy? ”

……

After reading all the comments, Liu Tianxian couldn't help but sigh, feeling mixed emotions.

What worries her is, of course, the good reputation of this movie. Most people think it's a good movie.

Since Wei Wu's "Those Years" started the youth film craze, there have indeed been many youth films released in recent months, but most of them are shoddy and bloody.

This "So Young" is already one of the best youth films!

But there is also something that makes her happy, that is, because this movie is a bit like a group drama, the presence of the heroine Zheng Wei is relatively not as strong as Shen Jiayi.

Therefore, there are some affirmations and compliments for Yang Mi in the comment section, but not many! At least it is completely incomparable to the treatment she received in her previous "Those Years".
