I really didn't expect Andy Lau and Ning Hao to be out on the first day of the Spring Festival.
The box office battle of the Spring Festival in 2024 has already begun, and the first day of the battle on February 10 is extremely fierce. "Flying Life 2" and "Hot and Hot" are inextricably linked. I'm afraid we won't know the ownership of the champion until the last minute. "Bear haunts" is still covetously at the back. with the advantage of the first attendance rate, Zhang Yimou won the third place.
But Andy Lau's "Mr. Red carpet" is bleak.
The box office on the first day is only 42 million yuan, "Mr. Red carpet" is hopeless!
As of 22 o 'clock on February 10, the top three single-day box office in mainland China are "Flying Life 2,""Hot Hot" and "Bear Haunting: Reversing Time and Space."
The box office of "Flying Life 2" exceeded 422 million on its first day, accounting for 26.4% of the film and 31.3% of the box office.
The performance is quite excellent.
You should know that Han Han's last Spring Festival blockbuster "the four Seas" finally grossed only 542 million at the box office. This time, Han Han figured it out, or Shen Teng was good. The lesson of "four Seas" was not high. This time, "Flying Life 2" can be called 100%. Shen Teng is an absolute hero, and even Fan Chengcheng's appearance once made the audience think that Shen Teng was a green leaf again.
But in the final, Fan Chengcheng played Xiaohai won the second place as a stroke, Shen Teng impact sixth was heavy ink color, the best special effects of the film are used in Shen Teng this racing scene, Shen Teng also lived up to expectations, this time whether funny or play middle-aged frustrated man are very amazing. "Flying Life 2" box office break 3 billion is a sure thing.
The box office of "Hot and Hot" exceeded 415 million on its first day, which is very close to that of "Flying Life 2".
The proportion of film production is 27%, which is the highest among the Spring Festival blockbusters, and the box office accounts for 30.8%. The attendance rate is worse than that of "Flying Life 2".
This time Jia Ling didn't shoot a comedy movie that exploded with laughter. Even "Hot and Hot" felt uncomfortable watching the movie. After all, except for the last half hour when the female lead woke up to lose weight and fight boxing, most of the time in the movie was that the female lead was constantly defeated. Even the ending was anti-chicken soup, and the female lead boxing match was crushed. It's not enough in terms of viewing pleasure.
"Bear haunts: reversing time and Space" grossed more than 236 million on its first day.
The film production accounts for 11.2%, and the box office accounts for 17.5%. The attendance rate is much higher than that of the new films in the same period. We can see that the proportion of film production has soared to 18% on February 11. The cinema line has seen the potential of this "Bear haunt". It is obvious that 2 billion is not the box office end of "Bear haunts", and I am afraid there will be another strong competitor for the Spring Festival champion.
Compared with the top three at the box office during the Spring Festival, "Mr. Red carpet" is embarrassing.
On the first day, the box office of the film is only 42 million, with 8.3% of the film, and the box office accounts for only 3.1%. The attendance rate is the lowest among the new films in the Spring Festival. I really can't blame the cinema line for not giving the number of screenings. I'm afraid the film will soon be abandoned by the cinema line.
The ticketing platform even gave a final box office forecast of less than 300 million, which means that "Mr. Red Carpet" is hopeless.
Director Ning Hao is the biggest failure! I sighed: this gold-lettered signboard has been smashed.
Why? The box office collapse of "Mr. Red carpet" is really surprising.
According to the announcement from the producer of the film, the production cost of Mr. Red carpet is as high as 260 million, of which the director took 24.6 million and the actor was paid 100 million. Of course, we all know that the biggest name of the film is Andy Lau, who must have taken away the 100 million.
According to the current trend, even if the film ends up earning more than 300 million at the box office, the film will only get a share of about 100 million, even if it is not a high publicity cost.
Mr. Red carpet also lost more than 160 million yuan, which is undoubtedly the Waterloo of Ning Hao's film career.
Even in my opinion, the biggest failure of Mr. Red carpet is Ning Hao.
First of all, I would like to make it clear that the shooting of "Mr. Red carpet" is not bad, and Douban's score of 7 is also a proof, but this film is really not suitable for the Spring Festival, nor is it suitable for the general audience.
I believe that the audience who pays attention to the movie and has seen the trailer can guess the plot.
It is nothing more than a mockery of the so-called entertainment phenomenon through the experience of Hong Kong superstar Liu Weichi. "Mr. Red carpet" publicity focuses on a large scale, what to reveal the entertainment industry, ah, is also alluding to so-and-so changing seats, and so on, looks like a full gimmick.
But only after watching the movie did I know that this film is actually Ning Hao's self-expression, and the pace is quite slow.
"Mr. Red carpet" is that Ning Hao filmed the confusion of the difficult birth of his works in recent years, and naturally complained about some capital and actors.
But believe me, this piece does not have any so-called large scale, even I think this film is purely a successful director in affectation, you are so successful, but also sigh that there is no talent, ah, do you want to go to heaven?
Ordinary audiences really do not want to see this kind of work which has money and power, but still laments that I am very confused.
Even if Mr. Red carpet loses 160 million, will the director's fee of 24.6 million be a penny less?
Of course, if you are a fan of Ning Hao, this film is indeed Ning Hao's classic style, and the first half is even a complete replica of the "Crazy" series. "Mr. Red carpet" is worth seeing. Forget it if you are Andy Lau fans. Andy Lau is really not a delightful role in the film, and Andy Lau has no breakthrough in acting skills.
Ning Hao used to be a talented director of Chinese comedies.
Classics such as "Crazy Stone", "No Man's Land" and "Crazy Racing" have been talked about by moviegoers, but Ning Hao has not directed a film independently for five years since the 2019 "Crazy Aliens". It's really touching that this comedy signboard overturned in a big production like Mr. Red Carpet.
