" Flying Life 2", which was released on the first day of the Lunar New Year, closely followed "Hot and Spicy" at the box office. The box office exceeded 1.9 billion in the 5 days after its release.
The previous film " Speeding Life " was released on the New Year's Day in 2019, with a total box office of 1.728 billion. The sequel currently exceeds the previous film's box office of 200 million, and the final box office is expected to double. Han Han can completely let go of his suspense. This time he won a big victory. The current movie share has reached 682 million, and the movie has begun to make profits.
The production cost of "Flying Life 2" has not been disclosed, but it can be estimated simply. There are no big scenes in the first 90 minutes of the movie, almost all of which are dramas. The racing scene in the next 30 minutes has some action scenes and special effects. The collision of two cars and the production of special effects are expensive, but if you look for a reference coordinate, "The Wandering Earth" The production cost of "Flying Life 2" is 50 million U.S. dollars, which is about 300 million yuan after excluding water. If "Flying Life 2" is discounted, even if the production cost is 200 million yuan, it has already made nearly 500 million in net profit, and it will exceed 500 million in another day.
It should be noted that the number one producer of "Flying Life 2" is Han Han's Tingdong Pictures, so Han Han is not only the one who gets the most box office dividends, but also has control over the development of this series.
At this point, the two works of "Flying Life" have already gained quite a high reputation in the hearts of the audience after they were released. They are considered to be established IPs and can also be regarded as a money tree in Han Han's hands. Many people are speculating whether they will continue. Filming "Flying Life 3", especially the appearance of the lone wolf driver played by Yu Shi in the film. During the
roadshow, Han Han talked about this issue and let it slip intentionally or unintentionally.
At that time, Han Han took the leading actors Fan Chengcheng and Sun Yizhou to Sichuan for a road show. Since the lone wolf driver played by Yu Shi appeared in the movie, and Yu Shi is a hot actor at the moment, some fans asked if he would There is "Flying Life 3" and whether it will involve a complete storyline.
Han Han first recalled his previous fate with Yu Shi. In the movie "King of the Sky" that he produced and supervised, Yu Shi performed very well and acted very well when controlling the machine, so he conceived the idea of "Speed" "Life 3", will Yu Shi and Fan Chengcheng be able to cooperate? In the end, Han Han said, "Let me write the screenplay."
Let me talk about a key point here. Han Han has never been a director who digs holes but never buries them. The last shot of the feature film of "Flying Life" is of Zhang Chi, played by Shen Teng , whose brakes failed and he was unable to stop after crossing the finish line of Bayinbuluke. He flew into the air without knowing whether he was dead or alive.
This pit was filled in "Flying Life 2", and the explanation for Zhang Chi's "resurrection" was also given. He was only injured, not dead, and fought against Bayinbuluke again in the second part. In this way, Yu Shi, who appears in the movie as a driver, can be regarded as a hole dug by Han Han for movie fans, and there is no reason not to fill it.
In addition, "Flying Life 2" has made a lot of money. Han Han has no reason not to film the third part. It is just that it is still in the promotion period and has not reached the stage of developing the script of the third part. I believe there will be one, but the script It has not been released and the filming of the movie has not started. It is difficult for Han Han to say too harshly, but "Let me write the script" must have already made plans to start writing the script. Moreover, Fan Chengcheng was added in the second part, and there is a great chance that Yu Shi will be added in the third part. Han Han has made money and has the confidence, so it is imperative to upgrade the cast.
just hopes that while Han Han upgrades his actors, he can also strengthen the plot and improve the quality of the movie!
Frankly speaking, "Flying Life 2" is not an outright good movie. The pace of the first 90 minutes is a bit slow, and there is no fast pace or strong plot. Basically, Zhang Chi meets Li Xiaohai, played by Fan Chengcheng, reorganizes the team, and participates in the test. Both the comedy elements and the plot tension are far inferior to "Flying Life". However, the racing part in the last half hour is quite exciting, and the special effects are better than the previous one.
However, for viewers who are accustomed to watching blockbusters, it is obviously not enough to have such a climax scene in a movie that lasts more than 2 hours. I hope that "Flying Life 3" will design at least two racing scenes to meet the audience's expectations!
