Chapter 946 The Golden Age of Reasoning Movies
It was almost twelve o'clock in the evening when Zhang Zhong finished watching the movie. He hadn't seen the box office data for the time being, but according to his guess, it should be the highest box office of "Murder on the Orient Express".

Of course it won't be too high.

In fact, he is not very optimistic about the box office of the two films this time.

The so-called not very optimistic means that he doesn't think these two films can get the box office like "The Last Starfish".

Now Zhang Zhong only hopes that these two films will not suffer from both sides because of the installation, as long as everyone can develop steadily and get the box office they should get.

In fact, their company has negotiated with Wenner Company on this matter, and after the discussion, everyone's views are quite optimistic.

The most optimistic is Lin Fu from Wenner Company's public relations department. He believes that as long as the quality of the film passes the test, coupled with proper guidance of public opinion, this collision may have unexpected effects.

The name Lin Fu sounds like a Chinese name, and he is indeed a Chinese American. Unlike the second generation of immigrants like Yang Xiao, Lin Fu studied in the United States and then stayed in the United States and changed his nationality to become an American. of.

Before getting American citizenship, Lin Fu had already joined Wenner Company, and at the beginning he was doing promotion in the film and game department.

At that time, Wenner Company's game department was very poor. Although Wenner Company had many movie IPs, it didn't make a popular game.

Lin Fu worked in the game department for two years, and his performance was quite good, but as an ordinary employee, he had no way to turn the situation around, and could only watch helplessly as the game department was acquired by Weifu Network Company.

And Lin Fu was transferred to the network business department, mainly responsible for developing new media channels.

After arriving in the new department, Lin Fu's talents were gradually revealed. It only took five short years for Wenner to regain his glory in the emerging Internet age, and it only took five years for him to become the company's public relations officer. The director of the department also serves as the manager of the network business department.

Therefore, Lin Fu's views on the market are quite keen and are well recognized by everyone.

As for the proper guidance of public opinion he said, this matter is directly handed over to him.

But Zhang Zhong has not seen what Lin Fu did yet.

Probably because Lin Fu felt that Shi Shi hadn't arrived yet.

……

The next day, the first-day box office of the two films came out.

"Murder on the Orient Express" had a box office of [-] million on its first day, and "The Devotion of Suspect X" had a box office of [-] million on its first day.

The result was about the same as Zhang Zhong expected. The box office of "Murder on the Orient Express" was indeed higher than that of "The Devotion of Suspect X", but it was not much worse.

And neither movie did much at the box office.

If it was another movie, it would at least be a very good result if it could get over [-] million in a box office in Huaxia on the first day.

But for Zhang Zhong and Wenner, this result can only be said to be barely okay.

The box office of "The Shining" last year was mediocre, but even the very mediocre "The Shining" won [-] million Huaxia coins on its first day in the eleventh file last year.

Not to mention the previous box office of "The Last Starfish" was [-] million on the first day.

The combined first-day box office of these two films is still far behind "The Last Starfish".

There must be a reason for the collision. If it weren't for the collision, any of these two movies should have earned more than [-] million box office on the first day.

After all, the audience overlap of these two films is very high, and many viewers like both films at the same time.

But asking them to watch both movies in one day is a bit unrealistic.

Those who can take the time to watch two movies on the first day of the new year like Zhang Zhong, first, they must be diehard fans, and second, they must have time.

It is only possible if these two points are met.

However, from this perspective, although the box office on the first day was greatly affected by the collision, the subsequent box office should be relatively less affected.

Because people who have watched one of the movies may find time to watch another movie.

Perhaps this later period of time is when Lin Fu made a move.

Things were just as Zhang Zhong expected. Around the fifth day of the first lunar month, a saying began to emerge on the Internet, saying that this year is the beginning of the golden period of China's reasoning movies. In the next three to five years, China's reasoning movies will enter a peak period.

And "Murder on the Orient Express" and "The Devotion of Suspect X" are the beginning of this golden period.

This statement sounds quite plausible, because these two films, "The Devotion of Suspect X" and "Murder on the Orient Express" have driven low and high at the box office. The box office of the movies has exceeded [-] million respectively.

Each platform has some big v big up masters to analyze carefully, and even divide the next few years into three stages.

The initial period, the blowout period, and the blooming period.

Some people call the past few years from "Ten Little Indian Boys" to the present a period of gaining momentum.

They believe that the past few years have been the budding period of Huaxia's reasoning movies. With Zhang Zhong's drive, Huaxia is now fully prepared and can take off at any time.

Unknowingly, the popularity of this topic has reached a magical height. In the next few days, apart from the fermented news of the Spring Festival Gala, it is basically news about the Chinese film circle.

Netizens receive news about these two films from all sides every day.

For a while, the two films were tied together, from the original competitive relationship to a complementary symbiotic relationship.

Zhang Zhong did not see the report from Wenner Company, but he intuitively believed that the news this time had something to do with Lin Fu from Wenner Company, which should be the public opinion guidance Lin Fu mentioned at the time.

It has to be said that the public opinion guidance this time was very successful, directly pushing the box office of the two films to another level.

By the tenth day of the first lunar month, when the two films were released in North America, their box office had already exceeded 15 billion.

"Murder on the Orient Express" has a box office of [-] billion, an average of [-] billion per day, which is higher than its first-day box office. This is a very amazing thing.

What is also miraculous is that the ten-day total box office of "The Devotion of Suspect X" is 20.00 billion, which also exceeds the box office of the first day, and the distance between "Murder on the Orient Express" seems to be getting bigger and bigger. It is getting smaller and smaller, from the original gap of 5.00% to the current [-]%.

Given the current situation, maybe "Murder on the Orient Express" was a little careless, and it would be overtaken by "The Devotion of Suspect X" in only three to five days.

If this is the case, it can be regarded as a moderate upset.
