Chapter 323 The final step towards 500 million
3.5 million yuan, almost 400,000 US dollars.
This is a trivial data in front of the Hollywood film market, but in today's Chinese film market, it is already a very good box office data.
As of now in the Chinese film market in 2003, the box office ranking first is Zhang Yimou's new film "Ten-sided Ambush" by Zhang Yimou, the director of the "Hero" who was fighting against the North American market a month ago.
This ancient blockbuster released two months ago.
This result is second only to "Titanic" and "Hero", ranking third in the box office in China since accurate statistics.
The first nine months are about to pass, and the second-ranked film is the blockbuster "The Lord of the Rings Trilogy: Return of the King" released in the North American market with "The Little Sunshine Beauty".
This blockbuster, which won box office reputation and awards, won 86.3 million in mainland China.
The third place is the 82.44 million yuan of the disaster blockbuster "The Day Afternoon", and the fourth and fifth places are also from Hollywood's "Troy" and "Spider-Man 2", which earned 64 million and 52.33 million yuan in mainland China respectively.
These are also six films with a box office of more than 50 million in 2004. Jackie Chan originally hoped that he could get a box office of 50 million in the mainland, but now his expectations were reduced from the first day's box office to the total box office, which was expected to be only 40 million.
But Chen Tian happened to be the opposite. The audience's enthusiastic reaction made him let go of the last big stone in his heart.
Today's Chinese market is still in its initial stages, like a newborn baby, far from mature.
Compared with North America, so many people have not reached so many screens, and not so many box offices.
Even though Chen Tian wanted to promote "Raid". If he wanted to rely on reputation to promote, he could only look forward to the driving force of first- and second-tier cities.
The current level of development in first- and second-tier cities is far less than that in later generations, and the Internet is far less popular than ten years later.
However, the consumption of Chinese films ten years later can still be regarded by many people as a symbol of life taste, and the difference between the normal box office of the movie and ten years later is not obvious.
The ticket price of Wanda in "Rail" reached 50 yuan, and the cheapest price of other theaters is 20 yuan, with an average box office of about 30 yuan.
Such a ticket is equivalent to one-fifty of a normal person's monthly salary, and at most one-fifty of a normal person. The difference between the two is ten times.
Watching movies in China today is undoubtedly a luxury consumption, and what Chen Tian wants to take advantage of is this psychology.
This psychology is still useful ten years later, not to mention now. However, in comparison, using such propaganda strategies is far from reaching this era, but it will also play a great role.
Chen Tian hopes that "Rail" can successfully earn RMB 50 million in mainland China as he thought, helping "Rail" take an important step to achieve a global box office of US$500 million.
The first screening of "The Raid" on the screen is approaching, and the audience in the entire screening room is involved.
When Donnie Yen and Zhang Zhen joined forces to defeat the mad dog played by Wu Jing, most people in the theater expressed their feelings.
"This is what they gave to you!" Chen Tian turned his head and said with a smile at Zhen Zidan.
Facing the light emitted on the screen, Donnie Yen's mouth raised: "This is all your credit. Without you, I would not have participated in this video."
Chen Tian did not continue to speak. In the previous publicity, Donnie Yen never came back. It was not until yesterday that he felt that Beijing had attended today's premiere.
Chen Tian did not express any expression about Donnie Yen's behavior as if he had made a default.
Donnie Yen didn't care too much about it. What he cared about was the Chinese audience's favorable impression of the film. He was extremely happy as he kept hearing the praises he received from him.
He is still waiting for the news of the audition in the United States, but many companies in China are already contacting him and want to invite him to star in an action movie.
He knew that a large part of the sudden invitation was not due to "Hero" two years ago, but was brought to him by "The Raid", which was being released worldwide.
For the audience, the visual impact of "Raid" has brought them too much.
They never thought that such a bloody action movie could appear in the theater, not to mention that all the fighting and movements in "The Raid" were constantly stimulating their adrenal hormones.
This kind of movie viewing experience keeps them in a state of excitement when the film comes to the end.
Leonardo, the leading actor of the Chinese movie history box office record holder, Jack, committed suicide in the end, only a little noise sounded in the screening room.
"It's too cheap to commit suicide like this kind of person. Donnie Yen should be used as a sandbag."
"I can't even recognize Jack."
"I used to be handsome guy, now..."
However, the discussion quickly disappeared under the reminder of others.
Zhang Zhen, who was dressed in a torn manner and had long been dyed red by blood, looked unconventional.
"I can be sure of one thing, that is, I can protect you below! But are you sure, can you protect me in your society?"
At this moment, Zhang Zhen, with a wounded face, captured the hearts of many female movie fans, and his smile highlighted the cruelty of the battle just now against the scarred wound.
When the soundtrack sounded, the close-up shot gave a close-up to the brothers Zhang Zhen and Donnie Yen.
The camera slowly stretched and stretched away, and the two were accommodated.
The two brothers turned their backs to each other, one walked towards the entrance of the gate and the other walked towards the building.
When the three of them left the gate, the iron gate slowly closed.
This relaxed lens treatment makes the audience feel warm after the adrenal glands are secreted all night, and can make them recall everything that was clearly contrasted before.
Under the music, "Raider" was shown on the subtitles.
Unlike the American version, the Chinese version of "Raider" finally added an ng shot when displaying the crew list.
The fighting action, laughing scenes and wrong shots made the movie fans feel the hardship and reality of the filming of "Raider".
When the film crew list and sponsorship list production companies are all over, the behind-the-scenes footage just ends.
Most of the people did not stand up immediately, but sat in the seats to ease for a while.
At this time, the screen darkened, and the four Chinese characters produced by Chen Tian were so powerful that they looked so powerful on the screen, as if they were covering the souls of movie fans, bringing them another wave of impact.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The lights in the cinema turned on one after another, and the movie fans were reluctant to look at the big screen.
Chen Tian walked to the front: "I hope the "Raid" just now did not disappoint everyone. Thank you for your support. You should make movies with your heart. This is my Chen Tian's eternal promise, thank you everyone!"
As he said that, Chen Tian bowed to everyone and thanked him.
"This is a good movie, we definitely support it."
"This is an action movie. It's so good. All the bad directors in China should die."
"Chen Tian, I hope you can shoot more movies and release them, and it's better to be an action movie!"
...
The fans responded enthusiastically, and Chen Tian was extremely satisfied with this situation.
Unlike North American audiences, Chinese audiences rarely take the initiative to sell videos to strangers.
However, waiting for the ticket buyer's inquiry suddenly made the audience who walked out of the theater excited, as if they had found a vent.
"You are still waiting for other movies? Jackie Chan's should be pretty good, but "Rail" is so good! If you don't watch it, you will definitely regret it!"
"Awesome, Hollywood blockbusters! So much better than those special effects movies."
"It's really good, I'll watch it again tomorrow."
...
A man looked at Chen Ke who came out with his girlfriend and asked in disbelief: "It's really that good? Isn't bragging? "
Faced with the doubts, Chen Ke laughed: "It must be good. You will know after reading it. If you don't like it, I think it is definitely not our problem, but your problem.
This is not something I alone commented on. If you don’t believe me, please ask others.”
Reputation of reputation can always bring people in. Some viewers who are not ready to watch a film have chosen "Railage" after hearing some people's encouragement, and Lin Fei even believed that he was the right decision to wait for "Railage".
