With 2 days of pre-sale, 18 audiences, and a box office of only 741 yuan, the most miserable new film in the Spring Festival in 2024 was born.
Although the 2024 Spring Festival stalls have been sung, the pre-sale proves that the audience's enthusiasm is still very high.
As of 21 o'clock on February 1, 3 days have passed since the pre-sale of the Spring Festival blockbuster opened, and the total pre-sale box office broke through 1100 million is the fastest pre-sale of Spring Festival stalls to break 100 million in the past three years, but judging from the pre-sale results, the polarization of this year's Spring Festival stalls will be extremely serious.
broke 33 million, Jia Ling teamed up with Shen Teng to overtake, and Zhang Yimou's Spring Festival champion couldn't be kept. According to the current pre-sale box office, this year's Spring Festival stalls "Hot and Hot", "Flying Life 2" and "Article 20" are undoubtedly the first echelon. As of 21 o'clock on February 1, the total pre-sale box office of "Hot and Hot" exceeded 33 million, and the pre-rehearsal films on the first day accounted for more than 269%。The total pre-sale box office of "Flying Life 2" was 32.84 million, and the proportion of pre-rehearsal films on the first day dropped slightly to 273%。The total pre-sale box office of "Article 20" was 28.59 million, and the proportion of pre-rehearsal films on the first day was 194%。
It can be seen that compared with the first day of pre-sale of new films for the Spring Festival on January 31, Jia Ling and Shen Teng have surpassed Zhang Yimou's "Article 20", Jia Ling and Shen Teng are old partners, and the previous "Hello! Li Huanying" and variety shows are all ** combinations, this time they starred in their respective movies, and won the champion and runner-up in the pre-sale of the Spring Festival stalls, and I can only sigh that the audience popularity of the sketch actors is really good.
However, the gap between the pre-sales of the three new films in the first echelon is very small. "Article 20" has not been opened a lot, but looking at the box office of Zhang Yimou's works, it is "Man Jianghong" in 2023 that will really take off, and the key factor is Shen Teng's blessing, which gives the movie a comedy attribute, and this time there is no Shen Teng to star. Lei Jiayin, Ma Li and Zhao Liying can carry the banner is a question. If Zhang Yimou wants to win the box office champion of the Spring Festival stalls, there is a high probability that it will not work.
With 2 days of pre-sale, 18 audiences, and a box office of only 741 yuan, the most miserable new film in the Spring Festival in 2024 was born. The first echelon of the Spring Festival stalls is eating meat, and the rest of the new films can't even drink soup. Andy Lau's "Mr. Red Carpet" has a pre-sale box office of only 8.93 million, Peng Yuchang's "Let's Shake the Sun Together" is only 7.81 million, and "Bear Infested: Reversing Time and Space" is 6.94 million, but "Bear Infested" has always been a long-term one, and the pre-sale and first-day box office were not outstanding in previous years, and they always counterattacked with the attributes of family carnival. These 3 new films can be regarded as the second echelon of the Spring Festival file.
"Bajie's Canopy Nether", "Huang Pi: The God of Wealth Cat from the Sky" and "Breaking the War" are undoubtedly the cannon fodder of the Spring Festival stalls. "Breaking the War", which was released on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, has not even dared to open pre-sale so far, "Bajie: The Nether of the Canopy" really has nothing to promote, and it is claimed to be the first domestic animation with Zhu Bajie as the protagonist, and also invited the CCTV version of "Journey to the West" Zhu Bajie actor Ma Dehua to dub it, but unfortunately the pre-sale box office is only 10460,000.
But the worst of the Spring Festival stalls is undoubtedly "Huang Pi: God of Wealth Cat from the Sky". "Breaking the War" has at least a star lineup, and the final pre-sale is likely to break 10 million, but "Huang Pi: The God of Wealth Cat" has really opened the pre-sale, and as of 21 o'clock on February 1, the movie has been pre-sold for 2 days, and the box office is only 741 yuan.
That's right, in the most ** schedule of the year, the pre-sale box office of this domestic cartoon is less than 800 yuan. From the purchase of tickets**, we can see that the average ticket price of "Huang Pi: The God of Wealth Cat" is 41 yuan, which means that only 18 audiences currently have tickets to support the movie, according to this trend, it is a question of whether the final box office of the movie can break one million after its release, and it may create the lowest box office record in the history of the Spring Festival in the mainland film market.
Huang Pi: "The God of Wealth Cat" is actually a Journey to the West theme. The original title of the movie was "Journey to the West: The Summer of the God of Wealth", maybe the hot filmmaker himself was embarrassed, so he changed the title to the current one, the movie tells the story of Huang Pi's participation in the Monkey King's havoc in the Heavenly Palace, but he didn't expect to beat the Four Heavenly Kings into a cat shape in a few rounds.
Fortunately, the God of Wealth was merciful and saved Huang Pi. So Huang Pi, who turned into a cat, went down to the mortal world, ready to find a feng shui treasure and plant a cash cow for the Year of the Dragon to surprise the God of Wealth. It's a pity that a long time has passed, and the world has long changed, and Huang Pi was treated as a stray cat and sent to the pet hospital.
This cartoon is a bit like "Spring Brilliant Pig Bajie", purely covered with a layer of Journey to the West skin, the plot characters are basically "original", the shape of the God of Wealth cat is somewhat similar to the Hollywood classic "Puss in Boots", the picture of the whole movie is also Hollywood, and the Chinese style in recent years does not match at all, although it fits the Chinese's desire for new films to attract wealth. But the production is crude, and the advance box office is not good.
