The Strongest Life Reborn

The North American one-week box office rankings released the next day, the first place was Paramount's movie, which took the box office of 14.4 million dollars.

February was originally a low season in the off season. It was already very good to be 14.4 million. The third place fell directly to 6.7 million US dollars, which is not surprising.

However, there was an unusual number in the leaderboard, which surprised people.

Fifth place: "The Chainsaw"

Distribution company: Lianyi Film Company.

Screening scale: 600 screens.

One-week box office (Sunday single-day box office): 3.3 million.

Such a thing? !

Everyone took the data report and immediately stunned.

Look at the name, "The Chainsaw" should be a horror movie, but it was only released yesterday, that is, Sunday night. 600 screens are already good for horror movies, but suddenly it has $ 3.3 million. Box office! ?

This is not scientific!

According to the usual practice, a horror movie is at most 30% -50% of the attendance rate. If it can reach the 3.3 million box office in 600 screens in two screening time, it is at least 80% of the attendance rate!

What kind of horror movie does this have so many box offices?

Industry insiders quickly found the detailed information of "The Chainsaw".

Oh, it turned out that it was the work of the genius screenwriter and the head of the Kirin Group Jun. Then the genius actually appointed a little-known Xiangjiang director and Xiangjiang producer to jointly create this movie.

Thank goodness, they chose all American and Chinese actors, which proves why the box office is so high.

But looking at these actors carefully, it is not a famous character at all. For example, the actor of the jigsaw, who has been running in Hollywood for 13 years, can only perform at most on supporting roles, and most of his previous appearances have been Comedy, God knows how to find the talent for making horror movies.

Unable to figure it out, many film critics and people in the industry went to buy a movie ticket that morning and watched "The Saw of Chainsaw".

To their surprise, in the morning, the attendance rate of these movie theaters is not low, and it seems that there are at least about 30% of the attendance rate.

You should know that even a movie with a big box office will not have too many people on Monday morning. The morning show is basically just to keep the cost, and the attendance rate of 30% is definitely profitable.

After watching a movie, even the people who specialize in finding faults finally came out with heartfelt sincerity and heart beat.

"The Chainsaw" is worthy of the word "Fright", it seems that people are really terrified, endless psychological pressure and horror shots, and the strange atmosphere of layer upon layer, outside observers will Being driven crazy, let alone the characters in the play.

Film critics and industry insiders can still hold back and slowly reminisce, but those ordinary audiences, when they went out of the cinema, were discussed in groups of three and five, excited and scared, and the atmosphere was very lively.

They can all hear that ordinary audiences have threatened to watch their stunning and unconventional horror movies after going back and letting their friends come to watch.

"The Chainsaw" is probably going to burst at the box office again!

Seeing the reaction of ordinary audiences, film critics and industry insiders have speculated in this way.

This type of horror movie is actually a relatively small group. Generally speaking, people who like it do not even reach one-tenth of the movie watching crowd.

But these crowds are different from ordinary audiences. They like it, they are very loyal.

As long as it is a good horror movie, it will inevitably lead to their collective viewing, and one by one, let everyone watch.

So if you open the box office rankings in North America, whether it is before, now or in the future, horror movies will inevitably occupy a large proportion in the movies that are small and big.

Accurately speaking, the horror movie does not care about which star actor, but the entire storyline and atmosphere. As long as you are qualified in this aspect, you can wait to count the money.

There is no doubt that in the eyes of experts, "The Chainsaw" is such a typical example.

And Monday's single-day box office also proved their point of view.

3.58 million!

Leap ranked North American box office champion on Monday!

On average, the box office of each venue has reached almost $ 6,000!

Good guy, this is a real achievement!

In the past five years, no horror movie has ever reached such a box office!

Nothing to say, expand the release!

The people in the Lianyi Film Distributing Department did not urge others, immediately attacked everywhere, and began to desperately increase the number of screens in the second and third tier cities.

On Wednesday, "The Chainsaw" had 1,030 screens, making it the first-ever number of screens ever released.

This is related to the off-season now, and some screens are available for selection of "The Chainsaw", but it is definitely related to the word-of-mouth and box office of "The Chainsaw".

The bosses of the theater can eat everything, but they will not lose money. With the movie that can make money, they will definitely come next.

So, the box office of "The Chainsaw" rose day by day.

Was 4.01 million on Tuesday, 5.05 million on Wednesday, 5.22 million on Thursday, 6.12 million on Friday, and soared to 10.22 million on Saturday, and then fell to 7.33 million on Sunday.

Released the second week, 40.52 million, the total box office up to 43.82 million US dollars!

Undoubtedly, such a high score has made "The Chainsaw" the champion of the North American box office rankings. It has also become the holder of the highest box office this weekend, and it has also hit the history of North American cinema since February. The highest single-week box office record.

Has such a good result, Lianyi Film Company announced that it will actively distribute the film to all parts of the world, so that horror movie fans all over the world can enjoy this "Keshijiajia".

Looking at the vigorous Lianyi Film Company, the remaining six giants in Hollywood are not full of taste.

They did not expect that a horror movie made at a small cost actually caused such a sensation, directly making it the most popular horror movie in history. Not to mention, it also added another one to Lianyi Film Company. The category of earning money is also a very useful series of movies.

Think about it, the production of "The Saw of Chainsaw" plus the cost of distribution, but only 3 million US dollars.

Even if they do a sequel to "Drill of Electric Drill" every other year, as long as the plot is not too collapsed, the global box office alone can make a net profit of 20-30 million, and then add the video and other peripheral products together, 100 million US dollars are not impossible!

Now the Hollywood film company, even the seven giants, how much is the net profit of the film in one year? 100000000? 200000000? At best, it is only 200-300 million!

After all, making movies, you can't say that every play earns money, and there are gains and losses, this is the norm.

After Yin Jun bought Disney and Lianyi Film Company, the films they made were also at a loss, but none of the films produced by Yin Jun himself lost money, which greatly supported the film company ’s Profitability has given it great momentum.

The remaining six major film giants still wanted to snipe the Kirin Group on this year's Cameron and Schwarzenegger's films. Unexpectedly, an unsightly horror movie has already disrupted their plans and let them Quite helpless.

As the director of "Drilling Electric" and the soul of "Drilling Electric", Yu Yunkang naturally gained a lot of media attention after creating such a shocking movie.

Yu Yunkang has always disliked the media, so he put the task of being interviewed to the producer Chen Xiangqi.

Chen Xunqi's personality is very jumpy and outgoing. He has dealt with the media. He is blown up by the ceiling, and the American journalists who have a lot of flowers are confusing and dizzy. I couldn't find anything useful.

Of course, in this way, Chen Xunqi, who is a producer, is also famous. In the United States, it seems that the producer is equal to the producer, and the sequence of the producer is usually higher than that of the director, so they think that Chen Xun Qi also played a big role in controlling the crew.

Therefore, not only someone came to dig Yu Yunkang, but also some people contacted Chen Xunqi.

Went back to the hotel where he rented. Chen Xunqi mentioned the braised vegetables and beer he bought from Chinatown. He asked Yu Yunkang to drink and chat.

In the shooting process some time ago, they passed the time every time the sky came down, because they are all Xiangjiang people, and they know the movie very well. They eat and discuss the plot, which is also the reason for the outstanding performance of "Electric Drill" One.

In this way, two people who were not familiar with each other gradually became very good friends, so they didn't talk anymore.

"Lao Yu, what do you think about next?" After eating and drinking for a while, Chen Xiangqi peeled peanuts and asked casually, "Do you want to stay in Hollywood or return to Xiangjiang?"

"What about you?" Yu Yunkang asked without answering.

"Me, if Jun Shao let us continue to make new films, then I will stay in Hollywood, otherwise, I still want to return to Xiangjiang." Chen Xunqi said, "Although the United States is good, it is not our home after all. what."

"What if I want to make a horror movie?" Yu Yunkang asked him.

"Please, why are you addicted to making horror movies?" Chen Xunqi said helplessly, "You don't know how hard it is to shoot this movie. If I don't rest for a while, I'm afraid I can't walk out. ... you too, rest more and rest! If you keep making horror movies, it ’s not good for yourself. "

"Look at this script." Yu Yunkang smiled slightly and pulled a stack of files from the bag next to it.

"Are you young?"

Chen Xunqi took it in surprise, looked at the cover, and wrote a line of Chinese characters on it.

X file.

"Huh? Is that kind of suspenseful movie? ... Oh, TV drama !?"

Chen Xunqi changed his tone while watching, but after a while, he slowly stopped talking and immersed himself in the atmosphere of the script.

I do n’t know how long it has passed ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Chen Xunqi raised his head with a look of excitement on his face, "How to shoot this TV series? When will it be filmed?"

"Why don't you return to Xiangjiang?" Yu Yunkang smiled.

"What are you going to do? It's a waste if you don't shoot this kind of TV series!" Chen Xunqi said, "How can I not participate in this rare opportunity to sharpen myself? How can I get you alone?"

"Hahaha ..."

Yu Yunkang laughed and picked up the beer can, "Come on, cheers! Old Chen, or work with you to make me feel at ease!"

"That is, the two of us are golden partners!" Chen Xunqi also touched him with a beer can. "Yes, are the actors sure?"

"The male lead Jun Shao introduced a man who had just come from the UK and called Pierce Brosnan, I haven't seen it yet."

"Well, let's take a look in the next two days. If it's okay, it's him! The sooner we start the work, the better! The idle days are too sad."

"it is good!"
