According to the Beacon Professional Edition, as of 12:31 on May 5, the box office during the 2024 May 1st period (May 1st - May 5th) has exceeded 1.4 billion. " Peacekeeping Riot Squad ", " Thelma and Louise " and " Kowloon Walled City: The Siege " are currently among the top three at the box office during the current period.
Several new films in this year's May Day season performed well. On May 5, after the news of the official announcement of the withdrawal of the film " Nothing That Can't Be Solved by Hot Pot" came out on May 5, people inside and outside the industry were surprised. The producer of
movie stated in the announcement: "After carefully studying the current situation and in order to meet the needs of more viewers, our "Hot Pot" will be withdrawn on May 6 (theaters that have already opened shows can continue Screening), see you again someday. "
"Nothing That Can't Be Solved by Hot Pot" is directed by Ding Sheng, starring Yang Mi, Yu Qian, Tian Yu, Yu Ailei, and Li Jiuxiao, and tells four stories. A story about two strangers sharing stolen goods in a theater backstage warehouse and unexpectedly getting involved in a murder case. The film was released nationwide on May 1st and lasted for four days, with a cumulative box office revenue of 50.88 million.
It is reported that in recent years, news of cancellations has come frequently during popular schedules. This year, there are eight new films competing for the May Day schedule. "Nothing That Can't Be Solved by Hot Pot" ranks sixth at the box office, with a total box office of 50 million in four days. It’s not too bad. I guess the film studio’s expectations were relatively high, so they made the decision to withdraw the film.
But the movie was released like a bow and arrow, and there was no turning back. Almost no movie was successful after being re-released. During the Spring Festival, " Let's Shake the Sun Together " and " Mr. Red Carpet " were withdrawn. After being released again, only "Let's Shake the Sun Together" was barely passable, while "Mr. Red Carpet" was bleak.
Industry insiders analyze that as far as the current reputation of "Hot Pot" is concerned, even if it is rescheduled, it will still be "hanging".
