The worst box office movie from 2022-2024! It can even be said that the biggest box office hit in the history of Chinese movies is here!
Before we start the topic, let's do a comparison first. If we want to choose the most miserable movie in 2022, "My Heart Is Flying" starring Meng Meiqi has no choice but to be the first.
The film is produced by Xu Zheng and is written by Wang Fangfang, a well-known screenwriter with Olympic themes. The latter has participated in the production of "Revolution of 1911", "One Man's Olympics" and "Xu Haifeng's Gun".
10 major companies jointly produced the film, with the best actor Xia Yu as the male lead, and it is a tribute film to the Winter Olympics. It can be said that the time and place are right.
However, the film was ruined by Meng Meiqi alone. In the film, Meng Meiqi played a famous short track speed skating star who was ordered to avenge his shame in the face of danger, which is the real life story of Yang Yang.
Director Wang Fangfang set several principles when selecting actors for this film.
1. You must be born after 1995, because you need to quickly practice the basic skills of short track speed skating.
2. Have good physical fitness and look like an athlete.
3. You must be particularly good at acting.
However, Xu Zheng added another one at the end. The selected actress must be cooperative. Spend!
As a result, this role fell on Meng Meiqi by accident. Do you think the audience is a fool?
In addition to meeting the first criterion of the post-95 generation, what other aspects of the director meet the casting criteria?
Could it be that the Golden Broom Award winner in "Zhu Xian" is so-called good at acting? The
production company never expected that before the movie was released, the heroine's private life would be exposed, and Meng Meiqi would be exposed to the involvement of a third party.
Countless netizens denounced the producer's substitution, and many fans even poured into the social comment area of Olympic star Yang Yang, begging the producer to make a substitution.
had no choice but to postpone its release during the final release stage. In the end, the film only took in a box office of 6.33 million yuan, and the investors lost their pants!
Moreover, this film is a key provincial film project in Heilongjiang. Many units participated in the production, and the efforts of thousands of people were in vain!
The traffic stars of domestic entertainment are really nothing, their fans are all fake, and their fame is all fake.
However, during the Tomb Sweeping Day holiday in 2024, a major production gave domestic films another heavy blow!
Many new films were released during the Qingming Festival, among which Hayao Miyazaki's "How Do You Want to Live" and "Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire" performed best at the box office.
I believe you have also seen that the introduction of Hollywood movies has declined in recent years, and domestic movies have ushered in a period of support.
Especially in the past few years, the bombardment of main theme movies such as " Wolf Warriors ", "Changjin Lake", "Operation Red Sea", " Eight Hundred ", as well as " The Wandering Earth ", "Hello Li Huanying", "Man Jiang Hong" and "Hot" Successful marketing of movies such as "Hot and Spicy".
What seems to be the rise of domestic movies has made both insiders and laymen cry.
When the economy goes down, producers and distributors are unwilling to market, and the quality of movies is exposed.
takes a look at the "tragedy" of the Qingming Festival schedule as of press time!
"How Do You Want to Live" has a box office of 280 million in two days;
"Godzilla vs. Kong 2" has a box office of 509 million in five days;
"Let's Shake the Sun Together" has a box office of 183 million in six days;
"Grass and Trees" The box office of "Human World" and "The Oriole Behind" were close to 30 million in two days of release;
local movies performed weakly at the box office. "The World of Grass and Trees" starring Wu Lei exceeded 10 million on the first day of its release, accounting for only 6.1% of the overall box office!
"Chapter 21", "Hot and Furious" and "Flying Life 2" are still in theaters. "The Villain" only had 8 million+ on its first day of release!
Another belated Winter Olympics gift film "Zero" only had a box office of 420,000 in two days of release!
It’s not as much as the cost of lunch boxes for the crew, right? This time the management cried dry tears.
The film was originally scheduled to be released on January 14, 2022. The embarrassing thing is that the pre-sale box office was only 25,000!
Winter Olympics + Spring Festival film, as a gift film for the Winter Olympics, the producers still resolutely chose to withdraw it.
Movies released in the same period in 2022 include "Super Family", "Shuimen Bridge of Changjin Lake", "This Killer Isn't Too Cold" and "Four Seas".
"Zero Limit" does not want to be cannon fodder, so it is not difficult to understand why it was withdrawn in despair. After all, Shen Teng 's "Super Family" was also withdrawn.
Just like that, after two years of dust, "Zero" was released again, and the box office was still terrible.
You must know that when the film was shot, Wu Jing was still at the tail end of movies such as "Wolf Warrior", "The Wandering Earth" and "The Climber".
In addition to Wu Jing, there are also guest stars such as Jiang Wu, Li Chen, Liu Zhibing, Ding Haifeng, etc. It can be said that it is a gathering of big names.
And the film also stars Han Geng, Yin Fang, Lang Yueting.
Lang Yueting has appeared in films such as "Blind Detective", "Gorgeous Office Workers", and "Shocking Revival". She was nominated for Best Newcomer at the Busan Film Festival and Beijing University Student Film Festival. She is an actor with great potential.
The last movie that was so awesome was "Extreme Aid" directed by Xuecun. The film claimed to have an investment of over 100 million, and it also gathered stars such as Wang Qianyuan, Huang Shengyi, Wei Chen, Bao Beier, Lin Yongjian, Du Haitao and other stars!
However, the box office of the film was only 71,000!
71,000 Comrades, what is the concept?
It seems that the heroine of the film is really depressed, and she was recently ridiculed for her live broadcast incident!
Maybe these movies were not made for the audience. The stars and investors turned around and left, leaving behind the hard work of the real filmmakers, those unknown post-production workers, cameramen, makeup artists, extras, etc.
pays tribute to the "unknown people" behind domestic films. Perhaps they deserve more praise than the stars.
