Chapter 847： Record maker
Perhaps it was really old. The sky by the window was slightly white. Rupert Murdoch put on his clothes and walked out of the bedroom. Since the'tap on the door', his sleep quality has been extremely poor. The struggle for property was even more troublesome for him. Fortunately, over time and his forced separation of News Corp., he finally eased the pressure from the federal government and Walt Disney.
And after he agreed to Ryan Jenkins's terms, the looming divorce battle also disappeared. Although he paid twice more than the 30 million US dollars in the prenuptial agreement, he finally got rid of the woman who made him faceless.
Walking onto the spacious balcony, Murdoch looked in the direction of Los Angeles. He said nothing that the young man who was only 30 years old would have forced him to such a situation, although his media empire was not completely divided. But for at least 20 years, I am afraid that there will be no chance to compete with Disney.
Even this once extremely huge empire will become weaker and weaker due to the internal friction of several children who have become enemies.
Despite this situation, Murdoch didn't think about fighting back, but now he no longer has the strength to fight back. What he wants most now is to see the bad luck of Disney, especially bad luck in big investment projects.
Even if it is as powerful as Walt Disney, if the "Avengers" fails, it will be a huge loss.
Sitting at the balcony table, the butler not only brought coffee, but also the newspaper he must read every day.
Unlike the past, Murdoch did not look at the political and financial pages first, but directly turned to the entertainment version. Yesterday was the time for "Avengers" to fully land on the North American theaters. Now the first day of box office should be released.
"Crack!"
In the crisp sound, the white porcelain coffee cup in Murdoch's hand fell heavily on the tray of the same material. The tray immediately fell apart and the brown liquid sputtered out. Falling on the newspaper, beside the stains, was an unusually eye-catching number. This number matched a little bit of coffee, just like Kim Carey's exaggerated expression, mocking some people's wishful thinking.
"A new single-day box office record in North America, "Avengers" set! 88.95 million US dollars!"
This is the headline of the entertainment version. This is a number that will inevitably be remembered in the history of North America and the entire world of cinema!
After taking a few deep breaths, the expressionless Murdoch calmed down as one of the owners of the six major Hollywood studios. He is naturally aware of the horror of this number.
This is not the final box office, not the first week's box office, but just one day's North American box office for "Avengers"!
For the sake of his own health, Murdoch closed the newspaper, but the figure of 88.95 million US dollars, like a curse, always entangled in his mind, making him uneasy for a moment...
On Saturday, the performance of "Avengers" remained strong. With the spread of good word of mouth from the audience, the film is already hard to find.
Although 4,349 theaters in North America have already opened up full firepower for screenings, the surging crowds still caused the ticketing system of Emperor Entertainment Group, the largest theater in the United States, to respond slowly and almost crashed due to too many customers buying tickets at the same time; The machine is damaged due to the overload of the customer swiping the card too much, so the ticket can only be sold in cash.
If not booked in advance. There is no way to buy tickets for "Avengers" that day at the theater scene.
When Sunday arrives, "Avengers" will harvest $81.15 million from North America on the second day of its release. This is also the highest Saturday box office in North America's history!
at this time. The box office statistics of other 114 countries and regions where the film was screened at the same time have also been completed. The box office of "Avengers" on the world's first day reached $255.55 million!
In a short period of time, "The Avengers" even set off a movie-watching boom that surpassed that of "Avatar."
With the expansion of the scope of film screening. There were also some disagreements, even cynicism.
"Film rhythms are divided into many kinds, there are visual rhythms, there are emotional rhythms. For movies, emotional rhythm is a necessary condition, and visual rhythm is an irrelevant condition. Visual rhythm movies without emotional rhythm are really lethargic. , They are fighting in full swing, the audience is like watching a few children with runny nose fight for a piece of bubble gum, it is unbelievable that they still pretend to be interested in waving the flag and shouting, this is simply too funny."
Like this kind of superhero movie, it is impossible to please everyone, especially those who think they are full of artistic vision. The movie itself is not made for these people.
"No one forces you to buy tickets to watch a superhero movie. If you want to watch a slow-paced movie that promotes the development of the film's story with emotion, you can go to the art theater, why bother to watch a commercial movie and make yourself suffer!"
The following reply can be said to be the best response to that kind of movie-going crowd. After all, fools know what Hollywood superhero movies look like, so they have to use a literary mind and deliberately use ' With the eyes of art, I went into the commercial theaters to examine it, and it can only be said that these people have a serious tendency to abuse.
On Sunday, the popularity of "Avengers" began to decline. The tight ticket situation of movies across North America has been eased to a certain extent. The long ticket-buying teams in major theaters have also been shortened. What remains unchanged is that The audience's reputation of the film is still strong, and the power of word of mouth surpasses any propaganda method.
$65.57 million!
This is the third day of "Avengers" North American box office results!
When the new week began, the North American box office of "Avengers" stayed at a terrifying figure of 235.57 million U.S. dollars. This is also a brand new North American box office record for the first week, directly adding "The Hunger Games 2: The Hunger Games:" The original record maintained by "Sparkling Fire" has increased by more than $70 million!
And such a hot box office blowout is not only happening in North America.
In 11 countries and regions including Hong Kong, New Zealand, Malaysia, Philippines, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Ecuador, Peru, Central America, and Bolivia, "Avengers" also set a new box office record for its premiere; in other theaters, " "Avengers" also achieved the second or third showy record in the history of the premiere at the box office.
In three days, the world has set off a wave of superheroes called the "Avengers". Under this craze, the box office of "Avengers" easily broke through the 700 million US dollars mark in the first week of the world, 711.31 million US dollars. This number appears for the first time in the history of world cinema.
Perhaps it is the sluggish relationship of those former well-known film critics. What sets off the global box office soaring is that the professional and audience reputation of "Avengers" is quite good.
On "Rotten Tomatoes", the "Avengers" has a positive rate of 95%, and data from market research institutions shows that "Avengers" has the highest audience rating of a+, and it was the first film in 2010. A movie praised by a+.
On the Ryan Disney family online website, the fan rating of "The Avengers" is as high as 97 points!
After the beginning of the working day, "The Avengers", like all movies, under normal law, the box office began to decline to a certain extent. On Monday, the box office plummeted to 26.5 million U.S. dollars, and the remaining Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday remained basically unchanged. Around this number, when the film was released in North America for a full week, the North American box office had reached 349.88 million U.S. dollars!
In terms of global box office, it is close to the $1 billion mark!
The new round of weekend box office statistics in North America has once again kicked off, and "Avengers" has a real competitor. Sony Columbia Pictures released "Kung Fu Dream" in order to avoid the overlapping audience of "Toy Story 3". ", deliberately put the schedule in May.
After all, in the eyes of most people, "Kung Fu Dream", a family-friendly film, is clearly different from the audience of "Avengers."
However, the popularity of "Avengers" far exceeds the estimates of Sony Columbia Pictures, and the humor and scale of the film are also very suitable for some minors to watch.
On Friday, "The Avengers", which had been released for a week, ushered in a big rebound. The North American box office soared to more than 32.5 million U.S. dollars, while "Kung Fu Dream" on the first day of the painting was only more than 15 million U.S. dollars...
Sony Columbia has realized that things are not too good.
In fact, the executives of Sony Entertainment discovered this situation last week, but as the release time of "Kung Fu Dream" was approaching, they could no longer make adjustments. Otherwise, the promotional cost of up to 50 million US dollars would be hit. Water drift.
Such losses make them even more unbearable.
As a result, "Kung Fu Dream" became a victim of "Avengers" crushing the box office chart this weekend.
On Saturday, the North American box office of the "Avengers" rose strongly, earning 49.5 million U.S. dollars in one day. Although it declined on Sunday, it still gained more than 38.5 million U.S. dollars.
The North American box office for the second weekend of "Avengers" reached US$102.12 million!
As a competitor of the same period Kung Fu Dream, the three-day box office accumulation of "Avengers" is not even comparable to the box office numbers of "Avengers" on any day. The executives of Sony Columbia Pictures are destined to cry in the toilet. .
Ten days after its global release, the North American box office of "Avengers" has exceeded 470 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office is close to 1.3 billion U.S. dollars!
It’s not just the box office of the movie that sells big. Peripheral products such as comics, dolls, toys, and character image authorization have also brought a huge amount of income to Disney. The same is in ten days, even if not counted other, only the character image. With one authorization, Disney took $285.9 million from all over the world!
In order to further promote the film, Disney also announced that the Marvel Universe project has entered the second phase, including "Thor 2", "Iron Man 3", "Captain America 2", "Guardians of the Galaxy", "Ant-Man", "Avengers 2" and many others. The film has entered the formal preparation stage! (To be continued...)
