Chapter 205 Weekly Box Office Champion
Popularity waxes and wanes, but art does not; looks fade over the years, but classics do not; "Kung Fu" will be released, but some things will remain in the hearts of the audience forever——
This is what Luo Xun gained.
From a practical point of view, whether it is Luo Xun's endorsement, Luo Xun's net worth from filming, or the appearance fees for some announcements, etc., they have all increased a lot. This is also the gain brought by "Kung Fu".
The next few days.
As arranged by Stephen Chow, Luo Xun launched the promotion of "Kung Fu" on his own and frequently accepted media interviews. The box office of this movie did not disappoint and remained quite high. The first week's box office shocked the media when it came out. And the industry!
Seventy-one hundred and twenty million!
This is an absolutely gorgeous number!
Unless the movie market collapses, it is a foregone conclusion that the total box office of "Kung Fu" in the mainland will exceed 100 million. Some people have even begun to predict the possibility of the movie's box office in the mainland exceeding 200 million. The circle is howling like wolves, lamenting that Zhou Xingchi is worthy of being the king of comedy. At the same time, Luo Xun also aroused the emotion of countless people in the industry...
"What kind of luck is this?"
"For the first time in my life, I was selected by Stephen Chow to star in "Kung Fu". As a result, the box office of this movie has exceeded 70 million in the first week, and he himself also contributed a very wonderful performance in the movie. This is How many actors long for opportunities that never come?”
"Huanyue really found a treasure!"
"Even Hong Kong and Taiwan celebrities like Andy Lau, Nicholas Tse, or mainland celebrities like Ge You, don't have a super hit with a box office exceeding 70 million in a single week. He is the only mainland actor in "Kung Fu" !”
"Who can withstand this!"
"Before, we said that he had disappeared for a year and a half and that it was impossible to return to his position as a popular niche. As a result, "Kung Fu" turned around and helped him regain everything he once had, and even made him worth more than before. A great improvement and a magnificent comeback! ”
"..."
Kong Shuang said that Luo Xun disappeared for a full 561 days, and people in the industry also discussed this matter. They believed that Luo Xun wanted to make up for the year and a half he was missing and make a gorgeous comeback, and he needed to satisfy a number of people at the same time. The first condition is that the movie itself must be popular——
70 million in the first week.
It’s already a hit!
Secondly, the character design must be exciting enough. Luo Xun's character has triggered both online and real discussions. Even harsh film critics have given it a considerable degree of recognition. This condition has also been met, and even exceeded the established standards.
Third, there must be enough drama.
Zhou Xingchi is a very generous person. Even though Luo Xun's role is very brilliant and may even threaten him as the protagonist, Luo Xun is still given enough shots. Facts have proved that Zhou Xingchi's vision is beyond the ordinary people. After the movie became popular, Luo Xun It did not cover up any of the brilliance of the protagonist, but instead made a contribution to the movie that went far beyond an ordinary supporting role!
Several conditions.
All exceeded!
So as discussed in the circle, Luo Xun has become that popular niche again, and that special case who has never played a leading role, but can be more popular than many leading roles!
This has almost become Luo Xun's label.
As long as the TV series "Blood Romance" is not aired, the label that Luo Xun has never acted will not be easily torn off, which also makes fellow actors envious and jealous——
"Why should he?"
"It's obviously a supporting role!"
"Why is it that a guy who has never played a leading role can be so successful in this way? What do those artists who have played him several times but never become popular think? Anyway, I want to find a piece of cake every minute. Forget it."
"This luck is so good!"
"He is simply the ultimate dream in the hearts of countless actors who play supporting roles in the industry. His appearance has made many people who have played supporting roles raise a little expectation in their hearts that does not belong to supporting roles!"
"..."
The support also has a heart that wants to carry.
As for the discussions within the circle, Luo Xun had no time to pay attention. For the promotion of "Kung Fu", he had an overwhelming number of announcements this week.
Busyness is the main theme of life.
While he was busy, Luo Xun also paid attention to the box office of "A World Without Thieves" and found that the trend of this movie was also quite good. The box office revenue in the first week was 40 million. If it were not for the presence of Zhu Yu in "Kung Fu" Before, I am afraid that the people who are being reported wildly by the Chinese media now should be Feng Xiaogang, Liu Dehua and even Ge You and Liu Ruoyin.
"The strong films collide."
Luo Xun lamented that he felt that the box office of "A World Without Thieves" would not be much worse than the previous one, because the box office trend was also very good, but the upper limit of "Kung Fu" was slightly higher, and it won the weekly box office with an unsurprising advantage. Box office champion!
Maybe this has something to do with word of mouth?
In his previous life, Zhou Xingchi's "Kung Fu" was released. Although the box office was very good at the beginning, the film's box office dropped quickly due to the poor reputation in the follow-up. In the end, the box office of the movie only took about 170 million in the mainland.
Until a few years later.
This movie became a classic.
In this life, he couldn't tell whether it was his participation that made mainland film critics sing praises for the movie or whether Zhou Xingchi adjusted some details of the movie. Luo Xun vaguely felt that the reason may be the former. In short, the emergence of his own variable made "Kung Fu" more popular when it was released. The word-of-mouth reputation actually far exceeded the previous life, and this also led to a rise in the box office, taking in 70 million in the first week!
Luo Xun doesn't remember.
What is the specific number of past lives?
But he is sure that this result is more impressive than the original "Kung Fu", because 70 million in a single week in this era, let alone a weekly box office champion, even the weekly box office record dares to be challenged!
170 million?
This is the "Kung Fu" in the previous life. The "Kung Fu" in this life obviously has a stronger fighting power. From the configuration of actors to the optimization of details, Luo Xun thinks that this movie has the possibility of hitting the 200 million box office mark in the mainland. As an actor in this movie, all kinds of honors are also closely related to the movie. Luo Xun naturally hopes that the box office of this movie is as high as possible!
If...
The box office breaks 200 million...
Luo Xun's heart suddenly jumped. He felt that this idea was very bold, but also very tempting. I think Zhou Xingchi must have had similar ambitions after seeing the box office performance of "Kung Fu" in the first week. After all, the first week box office of the movie and the reputation of the outside world have laid a very good foundation for this number!
He will definitely increase publicity!
Then what can I do?
Luo Xun began to think about how to promote the next step. Suddenly, he remembered a popular saying in his previous life. Maybe this could also help the box office a little?
