Chapter 959

The box office of the Titanic in history is actually as uncomfortable as constipation.

Due to the lack of publicity and the general public's lack of interest in a shipwreck film, when the Titanic was released on December 19, 1997, the box office at zero point was only more than $2 million, and the box office at the first weekend was 28638131.

At this moment, the box office of Titanic's zero point reached $12 million (the previous 60 million was purely brain pumping, because it was only the achievement of the Avengers 4 in 2020, which was too ridiculous in 1995, and it is more appropriate to correct it to 12 million!), which is six times the box office of Titanic's zero point in history.

Doesn't this mean that the current Titanic may also have six times the box office at the first weekend, that is, the box office at the first weekend of 170 million US dollars?

The release results of Titanic in the first three weeks of history were quite street beating. Just when Cameron himself was almost desperate, the box office of Titanic suddenly rose to a strange degree from the third week.

When it was released in the sixth week, since the box office of the film suppressed the blockbusters released in the same period, it finally occupied the top of the box office for ten consecutive weeks, which can be called a miracle.

Later, after investigation, I learned that this was because of the miracle of birth by word of mouth.

Fortunately, because the box office of the Titanic in history was very bad in the early stage, many overseas film makers directly gave up the introduction, so the Titanic did not release globally at the same time in the early stage.

It was not until two months after the release in North America that the Titanic was released in the second country. At this time, the United States of the Titanic has become famous. Countless people were moved to tears by the film. All the news media reported the popularity of the film. Many people even crowned the title of the first masterpiece of the 20th century on the head of the Titanic, This led the Titanic to accumulate a lot of curiosity in other countries around the world.

After two months of delay, it quickly triggered a global film viewing frenzy. Almost everyone came to watch this film curiously. It is said that no one can not be moved and the special effects are earth shaking.

So the Titanic created an unprecedented miracle. The domestic box office of the United States was only $650 million, which was actually the third in history at that time.

However, except for the North American market, the global box office received US $1.45 billion, five times that of the first place before. When the global box office statistics were completed, people were surprised to find that except Fusang, the Titanic won the box office champion of all the countries that were released that year, which is something that future Avengers 4 can't do!

This is the first film in history to truly dominate the world.

Several years later, countless audiences lamented that Hollywood's real sweep of the global history actually began with the Titanic.

Back in this world, compared with the Titanic of another world, the Titanic of this world has made up for all his shortcomings.

Because of the live broadcast of the shipwreck jointly made by boss Jia and Fox TV, Titanic is no longer the film that was ignored and lack of interest in the early stage of release in history. On the contrary, countless people expected the film to be released, so it set a new record of $12 million.

Of course, there are good and bad ways to do this. The disadvantage is that the audience's psychological expectations for the Titanic have been greatly raised by boss Jia's publicity. If the quality of Titanic fails to meet the expected quality and satisfy the audience, the reputation of the Titanic will drop instantly and the subsequent film box office will explode, At that time, it may not even achieve half of the global box office of 2.1 billion.

There are many such examples, especially in China's film market. Many films like all kinds of bragging at the beginning of release. They want to make this film the first in the world and then explode. This is the negative impact of artificially raising film expectations.

On the contrary, if the quality of the film is really high, even if the audience's psychological expectations are doubled or twice, it can still be satisfied, the popularity of the film will also rise crazily.

So two days later, at the end of the first weekend of Titanic, boss Jia, who saw the final box office results, couldn't help taking a breath. James Cameron, on the other hand, fainted with joy.

Of course, the 170 million first weekend box office calculated by boss Jia according to the zero box office was slapped hard in front of reality, but the slap was very happy.

Because according to the final result, the box office of Titanic exceeded $200 million at the first weekend, reaching $204132125, which means that all Americans... Whether filmmakers or ordinary people, are stunned by the data.

According to various data released later, in the two days of the whole weekend, "Titanic" accounted for 42% of the film arrangement on Saturday, while the film arrangement number rose to 68% on the weekend. The film "Titanic" accounted for 23% of the cinema arrangement.

It's nothing. What's really scary is the attendance rate. According to statistics, the attendance rate of Titanic in the first week is as high as 62%, which means that if there are 1 million seats in all the film studios at the first weekend, there will be 620000 seats.

This still includes the morning sessions when no one watches the film. If the sessions before 1:00 noon are not counted, the attendance rate will reach an even more amazing 86%, which is the real invincible.

In one weekend and two days, "Titanic" created an invincible record that had to wait for more than ten years, more than twice the box office record of the first weekend.

This is a data that gives latecomers unlimited pressure. Don't say you want to break this record. Even if you think of this record, people in future films will have a headache to the point of bursting.

Well, if you want to break this record, I'm afraid you'll have to wait for the Avengers 4 in more than ten years. During this period, I'm afraid Titanic will dominate the world.

The box office at the first weekend is just the beginning. With the release of Titanic in the second week, miracles are still being created. In the second week, Titanic won a total box office of $380 million, plus the previous box office of $170 million. In just nine days, Titanic won a North American box office of $550 million, while the previous Titanic, After 30 weeks of release, there was only $650 million at the box office.

It is said that after seeing this data, many bosses of film companies shut themselves in the cinema for a day, watching Titanic repeatedly and again, trying to discover the secret of success.

Finally, they suddenly realized that love + handsome men and beautiful women + special effects + big director + big money = Titanic.

Although I don't know whether this formula is right or wrong, Hollywood blockbusters in the future basically follow this formula. The only thing that can be deleted from this formula is about the big director.
