Chapter 724 The global ranking... 3rd!

How long will it take for "Wulin" to break through the domestic box office of 2 billion and the global box office of 4 billion?

This issue has been repeatedly discussed by the media.

Although it doesn't really make sense, because according to the current single-day box office of "Wulin", the answer can be easily calculated.

But the media needs some topics to drive sales.

And "Wulin" has such a topicality.

Now the meaning of "Wulin" is not just a good-looking movie, but has risen to the level of "winning glory for the country".

After all, this is the highest-ranked Dahua movie on the global box office list.

Every time the ranking of "Wulin" rises by one, many netizens feel a sense of pride in their hearts.

Du Caige doesn't like bundling marketing.

If the concept of watching "Wulin" and "patriotism" is bundled and marketed, it seems that it can benefit for a while, but in the long run, it is likely to encounter backlash.

So he is trying his best to play down this influence.

In an interview, he even said, "I think the audience should watch movies rationally. If you really like this movie, you can go to the second and third times. But there is no need to buy tickets for the second and third times just to help 'Wulin' hit the list. Swipe. There is no need to mobilize the whole family to support, and there is no need to say to your friends, 'If you don't support Wulin, you are not patriotic'. 'Wulin' is a fun movie. It is to bring happiness to everyone, not to everyone. bring a burden."

After this interview was broadcast, the upsurge of the whole people supporting "Wulin" subsided somewhat.

It can be seen from the box office that although there has been no cliff-like decline, since he said these words, the single-day box office data has become more rational.

Du Caige said before that when the domestic box office of "Wulin" exceeded 1.5 billion and the global box office exceeded 3 billion, he called the original cast to hold a celebration banquet.

This is also the meaning of the title. It is not only a kind of publicity, but also a thank you to the cast and crew for their efforts.

Thank you for your joint efforts to create a small miracle.

However, due to some delays at the time, the box office of "Wulin" soon approached 2 billion.

So he simply adjusted it and put the celebration banquet after the domestic box office of "Wulin" exceeded 2 billion and the global box office exceeded 4 billion.

In fact, it didn't take long.

On July 24, "Wulin" won a domestic box office of 1.7 billion and a global box office of 3.7 billion.

After that, the single-day box office was around 40000-50000000 every day.

After the screening on July 30, the domestic box office of "Wulin" quietly reached 1.968 billion.

Considering the error and the failure of some theaters to submit data in time, it can be said that the domestic box office of "Wulin" has reached 2 billion.

Overseas box office is rising even more strongly. Because of the lack of film schedule in the early stage, "Wulin"'s overseas efforts are somewhat lagging behind that in China, and it still maintains a high single-day box office.

At this time, the overseas box office of "Wulin" has reached 2.48 billion, and the global box office has reached 4.48 billion, or about 1.785 billion US dollars.

There is only a difference of 100 million US dollars from "Doomsday Crisis", which is No. 5 on the global box office list!

With the current momentum of "Wulin", it will take only three or four days to surpass "Doomsday Crisis".

Even Shu Yihuan made a phone call to congratulate him, and said helplessly, "My accumulated overseas box office of more than a dozen movies has been surpassed by one of your movies. What can I say? Anyway, this is a good thing, Dahuaguo There are successors in the film, and the future is bright. Congratulations, I hope you can reach new heights in the future."

In addition to jealousy, he also feels somewhat "proud".

Although the overseas box office of "Wulin" actually did not exceed the overseas box office of all Shu Yihuan's films.

But everyone knows it's only a matter of time.

Just like the possibility of "Martial Arts" becoming the second place in the global box office list, it is almost impossible.

But becoming the third is only a matter of time.

After all, it's third on the global box office list, with only $2.18 billion at the box office.

"Wulin" is only 400 million US dollars away now. Even if the single-day box office continues to decline, but according to the trend curve, it only takes 20-25 days to catch up to the 400 million US dollars box office gap.

And "Wulin" has only been released for 22 days, and there are still 28 days before the scheduled release.

Du Caige has been interviewed frequently recently. After all, although he doesn't care about recording anything and doesn't like dealing with the media, but when it comes to cute little money, he still doesn't mind selling his body and soul to help the movie climb to a higher box office.

On July 31, before the celebration banquet, he said in a talk show: "No. 3 in the global box office list? I don't care much about it. I believe that even if 'Wulin' can't reach it, I will definitely There are other works that can enter the top three. So you really don’t need to care about this kind of thing, just let it happen naturally.”

"Did I ever think that there would be such a high box office? Frankly speaking, I didn't expect it. I do have ambitions to be famous in film history, and I dream of making a movie that can enter the top three or even number one in the global box office in the future." But in the original plan, it was a long, long time in the future. Now my technology is not yet mature, and I am still learning while shooting. I just want to make a movie that everyone can watch happily. After watching it, I will A movie that vividly tells the plot to others, a fun movie."

"My original goal? 1.5 billion domestic box office, 2.2 billion global box office. Da Hua Yuan."

"A plan for a new movie? I don't have any plans yet, I'll take a break first."

"What do you do during your break? Eat, drink, play, watch dramas."

"Bringing children? I refuse to answer this question."

In addition to the trap question of "will you take care of the children during the break", Du Caige also encountered other traps in this talk show.

For example, the host asked him, "At the beginning, 'Admiral' was regarded as a strong competitor of 'Wulin'. After all, the main creative team of 'Admiral' was more star-studded and the investment was bigger. But after the release, 'Admiral''s Poor performance. What do you think of the movie?"

Du Caige could only answer formulaically: "The factors that affect a movie's box office are very complicated, and no one can guarantee that their next movie will have good box office figures. Director Shu Yihuan is one of the best directors in China. The standard of 'Master Admiral' is not bad, maybe it just has some problems in catering to the market. I believe Director Shu can adjust himself as soon as possible and prove himself in the next movie."

The host asked again: "What about your next movie, can it surpass 'Wulin'?"

Du Caige laughed dryly: "Phenomenal performances like "Wulin" cannot be replicated. I even think it will be difficult for me to break the box office record I created in the next ten years."

"The performance of 'Wulin' overseas is also very good, exceeding people's expectations. It can even be said that the performance of 'Wulin' in the domestic film market is surprising and enviable, so its overseas box office performance is amazing. I am very puzzled. I have a statistic here. The purely domestic film with the highest overseas box office before was directed by Shu Yihuan's "Gone with the Wind", with an overseas box office of 268 million US dollars, which is equivalent to 670 million U.S. dollars. And your " Wulin', suddenly raised this record to 990 million US dollars, which is equivalent to 2.48 billion Dahua yuan, an increase of nearly 4 times. And this is not the end. This is incomprehensible. Everyone used to say that domestic films Overseas, there will be cultural barriers and unpopularity, but why does your film break people's perception?"

This problem is very big.

Fortunately, Du Caige also thought about this issue seriously.

After all, he himself never thought that the overseas box office data of "Wulin" would be so good, so he also analyzed and summarized it.

"I think this problem can be looked at from several aspects. First, the high overseas box office of 'Wulin' is a manifestation of our growing national strength, rising international status, and increasing recognition from international friends. If everyone thinks that your Dahua country is poor and backward, that you are a cultural desert, and you can’t make any good things, then even if we do more publicity, no matter how high the domestic box office of "Wulin" is, people will not be willing to enter it. Go to the cinema."
