In the blink of an eye, two days passed and it was July 17th.
Skyview Entertainment Company.
Wu Hong looked at the official website of the General Administration of Culture and laughed out loud at the box office data that had just been updated.
"Arms 2" has been released for three days. As of July 16, the cumulative box office has reached more than 1.19 billion, close to 1.2 billion.
The summer schedule is different from the National Day schedule. The summer schedule is mainly for student parties, while others are still at work. The box office has declined in these two days.
The box office on the 15th was more than 390 million, and the box office on the 16th was more than 370 million.
However, Wu Hong is very satisfied with this box office.
The cumulative box office of "Arms 2" in the first three days was much higher than that of "Arms 1".
The online reviews for "Arms 2" are very good. Wu Hong believes that by the weekend, the box office of "Arms 2" will explode again.
Wu Hong tasted the brewed Longjing tea, the smile on his face became stronger, and he browsed the recent comments about him from netizens on Weibo.
"Director Wu is the hope for domestic military-themed movies!"
"The arms series is the ceiling for domestic military-themed movies."
"For directors who want to make military-themed movies, please take a look at "Arms 2". Director Wu Hong has already told you how to make it. Don't think about free play."
"Only a movie like this can be called a modern military war. Director Wu Hong is indeed a great director, and he shows modern war vividly."
In the domestic market, military themes have always been synonymous with movies with the main theme. Just as women love watching romance movies, men have a natural interest in military movies.
Before the release of "Arms 1", domestic films in this area were mainly ancient and modern military films. Modern military themes were like a forbidden area that no director was willing to touch.
Wu Hong is no exception. Once a person becomes famous, he will cherish his feathers.
When the screenwriter of "Arms 1" approached him, Wu Hong wanted to reject it directly when he heard it was a modern military-themed movie. He was worried that it would affect his reputation.
The screenwriter has been his friend for many years. Due to his reputation, after receiving the script, he patiently read it.
This looks like an all-nighter.
Wu Hong found that this script is very different from other modern military-themed movies. It has made bold innovations in creative thinking, and it is a movie worth shooting.
As the conversation with his screenwriter friend deepened, Wu Hong decided to take a gamble.
"Arms 1" became a hit after its release, directly raising the box office record of military-themed movies to more than 2 billion.
Since then, modern military-themed movies have emerged one after another, and major entertainment companies have put their feet in, hoping to get a piece of the pie.
There is no harm without comparison, and without a good plot, this kind of movie is still a restricted area for them. Most netizens say that it was Wu Hong who saved domestic modern military-themed movies.
Now the popularity of "Arms 2" has made Wu Hong's top spot in the field of military-themed movies even more secure.
"This summer film must belong to "Arms 2"." Wu Hong thought in his mind.
Regardless of the single-day box office or cumulative box office, "Arms 2", which was only released for three days, has already topped the list of summer movies, crushing other movies with its absolute strength.
The box office of other movies is not at the same level as "Arms 2". The second place is a movie released in early July, with a box office of just over 500 million in half a month.
...
The box office of "Arms 2" exceeded 1.2 billion in three days. It has been a long time since a domestic film has seen such a grand event, triggering reports from major media outlets.
["Entertainment News": Since the release of "Arms 2", it has collected a box office of 1.2 billion in just three days, surpassing other summer movies and becoming the hottest movie at the moment. Director Wu Hong has once again proved with his strength that the popularity of "Arms 1" is no accident. 】

["Jinghua Daily": "Arms 2" has once again pushed military-themed movies to a climax. After experiencing the last boom of military-themed movies, I wonder if there will be movies following the trend this time. 】
["Southern Entertainment": Congratulations to the movie "Arms 2" for exceeding one billion in box office! 】
In the past three days, I could see news about "Arms 2" on Weibo hot searches every day.
"I have watched "Arms 2" twice. Every time I watch it, I feel excited. I still want to watch it three times."
"The box office is too high. It seems that it is aiming for a box office record."
"This movie is worthy of the box office. "Arms 2" is the most exciting military-themed movie I have ever seen."
"I would say 1.2 billion is a bit low for "Arms 2". If it weren't for the working days, it should be higher."
...
At 12 noon, "Wolf Warrior 2" premieres.
Beijing.
In order to strongly support Tan Yue's first movie, Xu Nuo booked a show at Wanda Cinema and invited Momo and Zhang Wenhua to watch the movie together.
Momo and Zhang Wenhua raised their thumbs and said, "Mr. Xu, you are so generous."
Xu Nuo patted his chubby belly and said with a serious face: "Old Tan's debut movie, friends must support it."
The popularity and box office of "Arms 2" these days are a bit ridiculous. Xu Luo is very worried that Tan Yue's first movie will fail.
Momo nodded lightly, she also planned to book a match to support her boss.
Xu Nuo suddenly smiled and looked at Zhang Wenhua: "You can't give us spoilers."
Zhang Wenhua made an 'ok' gesture.
Momo said a little excitedly: "It's begun, it's begun."
The camera slides from the river to the sea.
Xu Nuo was standing next to Zhang Wenhua and couldn't help but ask: "Are all these shots real shots?"
Zhang Wenhua looked at Xu Nuo with wide eyes and nodded gently.
Xu Nuo raised his eyebrows and interrupted: "This does not involve spoilers."
Momo on the side ignored the two people beside her and watched the movie seriously.
Xunuo watched Leng Feng fighting the enemy underwater while holding his breath. It wasn't until Leng Feng emerged from the water that he took a deep breath.
Zhang Wenhua whispered in his ear: "I heard Mr. Tan say that this shot is one shot to the end."
Xu Nuo's eyes were as wide as copper bells, and he couldn't believe what he heard.
Not to mention letting myself do so many movements underwater, even if I hold my breath, I can't hold it for such a long time.
In fact, this scene was shot in one shot on Earth.
In order to achieve the best visual effect in the film, Tan Yue naturally used this kind of lens.
The shots of just a few minutes are the most difficult part of shooting the entire film.
In order to take this shot, Zhang Shengli spent a whole day in the water.
For at least half a month, Zhang Wenhua saw changes in Zhang Shengli's skin due to blisters.
The three of them continued to watch the movie, Xu Nuo said not to spoil anything, but couldn't help but want to ask Zhang Wenhua what happened during the filming. Finally, with a look from Momo, Xu Nuo finally chose to shut up and never speak again. .
The lights in the theater came on, and Xu Nuo couldn't help but praise: "Lao Tan's movie is definitely better than "Arms 2"."
Xu Nuo said these words without involving his personal feelings with Tan Yue.
Yesterday, he watched "Arms 2" with the intention of finding out about the enemy. At that time, Xu Nuo felt that Tan Yue's debut film was going to be a hit.
The last battle scene in "Arms 2" is very shocking. Those who didn't know this scene thought it was a foreign blockbuster.
But "Wolf Warrior 2" gave Xu Nuo a completely different feeling. He felt that he was very proud to be born in this country.
Especially seeing Leng Feng holding the national flag through the flames of war unharmed.
Momo on the side couldn't help but praise: "I just said that Boss's movie will definitely not disappoint the audience."
Many people on the Internet say that Tan Yue is riding on the popularity, and that "Wolf Warrior 2" is a movie that just follows the trend, and the quality is definitely not much better.
In Momo's mind, since Tan Yue wants to make a military-themed movie, he must have full confidence in "Wolf Warrior 2".
After following Tan Yue for so long, Momo knew that Tan Yue never did anything boring.
Doing programs on a TV station, joining Bright Entertainment to do programs and filming TV series, both of them are successful in attracting everyone's attention.
Xu Nuo patted Zhang Wenhua: "What's wrong? Looking at your expression, you seem a little surprised?"
Zhang Wenhua nodded numbly, immersed in the surprise of watching the movie.
On the set of "Wolf Warrior 2", both the actors and the crew were very tired. Tan Yue was very strict with every detail.
Although I knew the effect would be good, I didn't expect that the film would be so enthusiastic after it was released.
When the three of them were about to leave, Zhang Wenhua said, "Do you think the part about driving a tank is true?"
The corner of Xu Nuo's mouth trembled slightly. The part about driving the tank and drifting was indeed very passionate. He thought it was synthesized by special effects and took a breath: "Is this true?"
Zhang Wenhua smiled and nodded.
Xu Nuo then extended his thumb: "It seems that the most generous one is Boss Tan."
Momo also became interested, but she didn't expect that Tan Yue would use real tanks to make movies.
Under Xu Nuo's constant questioning, Zhang Wenhua told the two of them the scene of the tank driving into the set that day.
...
Night falls.
Shonan Province.
Wanda Cinema.
Ding Zhuo followed his good friend to the movie theater reluctantly, muttering in his mouth: "What are you watching "Wolf Warrior 2"? It's a garbage movie, it's not enough to waste time."
After saying that, he stretched his waist on the chair to relieve his fatigue. After get off work, he went to the cinema with his good friends. He looked around and thought: Tsk... It's still almost boring. There are not all the people there. , how can it be compared with "Arms 2".
Although "Wolf Warrior 2" is also popular, it is much smaller than "Arms 2". On the first day of release, there were no people in the corners of the theater.
The good gay friend next to me seemed very excited, waiting for the movie to start.
As the lights slowly dimmed and the entire theater became quiet, "Wolf Warrior 2" finally began.
Ding Zhuo picked up the popcorn next to him and ate it. He hadn't eaten dinner yet because he was watching this movie for nothing.
Seeing several excavators appearing on the huge screen, Ding Zhuo stopped what he was doing. He was all too familiar with this scene - forced demolition.
This kind of thing happened to his hometown a few years ago. There was a lot of noise at that time, similar to the situation in the picture, and a lot of police cars came.
Ding Zhuo clenched his fist tightly, wishing he could pull the captain of the demolition team out of the movie and beat him up.
Until Leng Feng kicked the captain of the demolition team away, Ding Zhuo thought to himself, this would be comfortable.
At the same time, I’m also very curious. When I look at the trailer, it’s something that happened abroad. How come it’s happening in China?
The following plot immediately gave him the answer. Leng Feng was dismissed from the military for beating someone and was also sent to prison.
While Leng Feng was being imprisoned, Long Xiaoyun disappeared while on a mission. The only clue left at the scene was a bullet.
Leng Feng came to Africa to look for clues in order to find Long Xiaoyun.
Because there was no foreshadowing in the first part, in order to make the audience understand, Tan Yue added some content about Leng Feng and Long Xiaoyun in the first part.
On a harmonious beach, gunshots suddenly appeared, and Leng Feng began to get involved in the country's rebellion.
Although the forced demolition scene resonated with Ding Zhuo, he still felt that the quality of the film was not high.
Gunfights continued, and some of the protagonists were surrounded.
"lay down your weapon."
"Put the gun down."
"Put the gun down."
"We are Chinese."
"China and Africa are good friends."
With the help of the Zhufei Embassy, the group finally got out of trouble.
When Ding Zhuo saw this, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart, and he began to watch the movie seriously.
Leng Feng, Zhuo Yifan and He Jianjun launched a life-and-death struggle with the enemy in order to protect the employees in the Chinese factory.
Watching the three people gradually fall down, and the worker being shot at and falling down continuously, someone in the theater secretly took a tissue and wiped off the slightly wet acting skills.
Ding Zhuo and his good friend clenched their fists tightly.
"Report, phone location locked."
"Report, target location locked."
Leng Feng is still fighting.
"Report, we have orders from our superiors."
With tears in his eyes, the captain shouted, "Fire."
The warships far away on the ocean were firing at full force. "Someone suddenly said in the cinema.
Immediately afterwards, other viewers were also infected by this emotion.
"Zhang Shengli is great!"
"admire!"
"May the motherland be stronger!"
"Those who offend China will be punished no matter how far away they are!"
At the end of the film, when both warring parties saw the five-star red flag held high by Leng Feng on the truck, they immediately ordered a halt to the fighting and allowed the Chinese to pass safely.
This scene moved many people.
In the studio, as the movie was coming to an end, the audience started talking.
“Oh my god, I’m so proud at this moment!”
“I feel that China is so great!”
"Mighty China, come on!"
"Be proud of your motherland!"
"The motherland is truly powerful!"
“If you don’t regret entering China in this life, you will still be a Chinese in the next life!”
"This movie is so good! Better than "Arms 2"!"
