Chapter 929 Box Office Fraud? (2/3)

"All the successful elements in commercial blockbusters are integrated together, coupled with the shocking and exciting 3D viewing effect, "Transformers" tells all movie fans what a real special effects blockbuster is." - "New York Daily".

"Chinese talented director Yang Ming and his team of visual designers have reimagined a photorealistic world where giants can believably collide. Yang and his team of visual designers have successfully recreated a realistic

The visual world makes the battle between giant robots believable." - "The Hollywood Reporter".

"Every second is filled with so many action scenes. After watching the movie and walking out of the theater, you may be tempted to add another 30 yuan to the box office and watch the 3D version of "Transformers" again." -

—New York Daily News.

"An unexpectedly witty and exciting work; a masterpiece that started the popular craze of 3D movies." - "Hollywood Observer"

Every media, every news report, every review of "Transformers", overwhelmingly praised Oriental DreamWorks and Yang Ming for bringing another classic commercial blockbuster to the American people.

Among them, the 3D version of "Transformers" was mentioned repeatedly, and all media were shocked by the visual impact of the 3D version of "Transformers".

Harrison finished flipping through the newspaper in front of him, his face was as dark as water, his brows were furrowed, thinking about the news reports in front of him.

Now there's trouble.

"Transformers" is the main rival, or it can be said to be the only rival, of its own Christmas blockbuster "The Flash".

The other movies in the schedule are either not on the same level as "The Flash" or are of different types. Harrison doesn't need to care, but now it seems that "Transformers" will accidentally become a roadblock for "The Flash".

In fact, it is now a roadblock.

Because of the media response after the premiere of "The Flash", it was not as sensational as "Transformers", nor did it receive so much praise and praise.

In particular, the 3D version of "Transformers", which the media and many celebrities were most amazed by, made Harrison feel like he was facing a formidable enemy. He did not want to see his company's movies become a stepping stone for others.

We must stop it, no matter how severe the retaliation the Chinese film market may face, we must stop it.

My hometown is about to be taken advantage of, and even if the film market outside is developing at its best, it is of no use.

Soon, Harrison's expression gradually became determined and ruthless. He stood up suddenly, adjusted his clothes, called the driver, and told him to prepare to leave for the company.

"Sir, are you ready for breakfast?" The servant asked when Harrison was about to leave. He was not as usual as before. Even if it was a big deal, he would only go out after breakfast as usual.

"I won't eat." Harrison waved his hand and said calmly.

After saying that, he opened the door and went out.

The day after the premiere of "Transformers", word-of-mouth from fans and praise from the media combined to make today's ticket sales very hot.

Many movie fans are often ready to buy movie tickets for "Transformers", but they are told that the tickets for the next show have been sold out. If they want to buy, they can only buy tickets for the next show. In some theaters, the queue is even two or three shows later.

, to buy movie tickets for "Transformers".

Especially the 3D version of "Transformers" movie tickets, sales are extremely hot. All the 3D movie theaters under Amc Cinemas, today's 3D "Transformers" movie tickets, have already been sold out. If you want to buy them, you can only buy them tomorrow.

3d movie ticket.

The ticket sales of "Transformers" were so hot and exaggerated that movie fans and other Hollywood movie companies who learned the news were in disbelief.

This is too popular.

At the same time, the e-commerce that combined Meituan.com and Maoyan Movies also expanded rapidly this time.

Online booking is a business that is favored by countless young people in the United States, especially when it is so difficult to buy movie tickets for "Transformers". You can also book seats online through Meituan.com and Maoyan Movies. Compared with those who queue up to get tickets,

Audiences who bought movie tickets in the theater were simply extremely happy.

Therefore, under this situation, the number of users of Meituan and Maoyan Movies in the United States is growing at a crazy rate.

This made Hua Mingqiu extremely happy.

Yang Ming was not idle today. He, Niu Hua and Hua Xiaoyue went to San Francisco to start their promotional tour. Under Barber's arrangement and planning, the three of them would also accept interviews from local media and record programs.

.

Not long after Yang Ming and the others arrived in San Francisco, he received the box office statistics of last night's North American premiere of "Transformers" from Barber.

15 million yuan!

On the phone, Yang Ming could clearly feel the excitement in Barber's voice.

You should know that this is the opening box office, not the single-day box office data.

Because a movie premiere starts at 6:30 p.m., there are only three or four shows in the evening at best.

In the history of Hollywood movies, there are only a handful of movies that can exceed 10 million yuan on their opening day. Especially in recent years, there have been very few movies that have exceeded the 10 million yuan threshold.

Once broken, the total box office figures of this movie will not be much worse.

What excites Barber the most is that "Transformers" not only broke the box office threshold of over 10 million yuan in its debut, but also reached 15 million yuan. Compared with other films that had a premiere of over 10 million yuan, they basically just exceeded 10 million yuan.

Among the line of movies, "Transformers" goes beyond that.

In fact, he didn't even calculate the remaining fraction.

15 million!

You must know that Barber has been with Pan American Entertainment for more than 20 years and has premiered over 10 million movies. He can count them all with just one slap.

Soon, the news that the premiere box office of "Transformers" reached 15 million yuan spread throughout Hollywood, leaving everyone dumbfounded after hearing it. This summer, China began to create miracles again.

But when everyone was still immersed in the shock of the 15 million yuan box office for the premiere, on the third day, the box office data for the second day of the premiere came out again.

73 million yuan!

Now not only Hollywood, but also many entertainment media were shocked by this box office data.

How is it possible?

This box office data is really abnormal. Even if it is the Christmas period and today is the Prime Weekend, no matter how popular "Transformers" is, there is no way the box office can have such incredible data.

Because compared to the number of movie theaters scheduled for release, "The Flash" is much larger than "Transformers".

According to statistics, "The Flash" was shown in nearly 3,500 theaters, and its box office on its opening day was 6 million yuan, less than half of "Transformers".

The next day's box office statistics for "The Flash" were 23 million yuan, and now the gap with "Transformers" is getting wider and wider.

This is simply impossible.

Because "Transformers" was released in just over 1,800 theaters in the United States, not even 2,000 theaters, how could it have such higher box office figures than "The Flash"?

Impossible. If there were no errors in the box office data statistics, then Oriental DreamWorks must have tampered with the box office data.
