In less than a day, we will usher in the 2024 Spring Festival. Judging from the current situation, " Mr. Red Carpet " starring Andy Lau may become one of the biggest "cannon fodder" during its schedule.
According to domestic movie platforms, the pre-sale box office of Jia Ling 's " Hot Hot " directed and starred by Shen Teng and "Flying Life 2" starring Shen Teng have exceeded 100 million yuan. "Article 20" directed by Zhang Yimou and the animated film "Bear Bears: Reversal of Time and Space" currently have pre-sale box office close to 100 million yuan. If they cannot pass today, their respective pre-sale box office results will inevitably exceed 100 million yuan. .
The current total pre-sales for "Mr. Red Carpet" starring Andy Lau are less than 30 million yuan, which is still 60 million yuan behind "Bear Bears".
As a superstar actor who has been popular in China for nearly 40 years, the pre-sale box office of the movie starring him is far less than that of an animated movie. This is really surprising. What's more, "Mr. Red Carpet" has a very good reputation among audiences. The film has already accumulated a lot of good reputation through screenings and screenings. At that time, many viewers gave it four- and five-star reviews after watching it. Some people even commented on the film and said: "It is a rare yin and yang on the market, and it is unique to Mr. Red Carpet."
has a good reputation, but the pre-sale box office is very low. The reason for this is not that the current audience is not interested in the film, but that there is not a good show that allows them to have time to watch it.
"Mr. Red Carpet" has very few screenings in theaters during the Spring Festival, accounting for only 7.1% of the screenings, and the proportion of prime screenings is as low as 5.6%. Some viewers reported that when buying tickets, they discovered that many of the screenings of this movie were in the middle of the night, or very early in the morning. No one will spend money to enjoy the New Year. Going to the cinema to watch a movie in the middle of the night is too painful.
In fact, China’s Spring Festival schedule has always been “unfriendly” to movies starring Andy Lau. Movies starring him didn't get much scheduling during the Spring Festival, let alone too many prime screenings.
is just like " and ", which will be released during the Spring Festival in 2021. The overall quality of the film is not bad, but its box office performance has been at the bottom during the period. The reason for this is because the film has too few releases. There are fewer golden games. Many viewers have said that the movie they most want to watch this Spring Festival is "The Crowd", but they don't have the time that suits them.
The only time he got a high-ranking film and got more golden scenes was " The Wandering Earth 2" starring Wu Jing, in which Andy Lau only made a special appearance.
