The 2023 Spring Festival file is finally here, but it's a pity that "The Wandering Earth 2" does not show absolute dominance
However, as of 7 o'clock on January 22, "The Wandering Earth 2" still broke 230 million at the box office in 7 hours, winning the box office championship on the first day of the Spring Festival, with movies accounting for more than 26.8% and box office accounting for more than 31.4%, and there are not many box office data ahead of "Manjiang Red", which is the second largest box office
This left suspense for the ownership of this year's Spring Festival box office champion
"The Wandering Earth 2" won the box office on the first day of the Spring Festival, and Wu Jing may break three records
In fact, as long as the quality of "The Wandering Earth 2" is not a problem, it is still a high probability to win the Spring Festival championship, after all, Wu Jing and Andy Lau's passers-by audience popularity is too strong, as can be seen from the pre-sale
The pre-sale box office of "The Wandering Earth 2" originally ranked third in the Spring Festival file, but the closer it was to the Spring Festival stall, passers-by and spectators entered the venue to buy tickets
The pre-sale box office of the film began to skyrocket, directly surpassing "Manjiang Red" and "Nameless" to win the pre-sale championship, proving Wu Jing's box office appeal, from the pre-sale and first-day box office, "The Wandering Earth 2" finally won the Spring Festival championship and the box office broke 3 billion should not be a big problem
This means that Wu Jing's record is even more
As long as the box office of "The Wandering Earth 2" breaks more than 1.4 billion, Wu Jing will become the first 30 billion actor in Chinese film history! At present, Wu Jing's personal box office has exceeded 28.6 billion, which is the closest to 30 billion box office, unless the quality of "The Wandering Earth 2" is too poor, resulting in a box office plunge the next day of the Spring Festival, otherwise this record Wu Jing will be broken
As long as "The Wandering Earth 2" wins the Spring Festival stall, then Wu Jing will be the first actor to win the Spring Festival championship consecutively
After Stephen Chow's "Journey to the West" was officially released on the first day of the Chinese New Year in 2013, the Spring Festival file became the most golden schedule of the year, and the heaviest blockbusters and the most appealing actors were gathered in the Spring Festival file, plus the Spring Festival file has a tradition of making a big dark horse
As a result, only Stephen Chow can win the Spring Festival championship
In 2016, "Mermaid" won the Spring Festival and in 2017, "Journey to the West" won the championship, but although "Journey to the West" was released under the banner of Xingye, after all, Xingye is only nominally a producer, so in the real sense, Xingye has not won the Spring Festival championship
But Wu Jing has the potential to accomplish this feat
In 2022, "Watergate Bridge" won the Spring Festival file, can "The Wandering Earth 2" win the championship in 2023?
And Wu Jing's third record is whether he can win three consecutive annual box office titles
If "The Wandering Earth 2" can win the championship, it means that Wu Jing has been the annual box office champion in the mainland market for three consecutive years, "Changjin Lake" in 2021, "Watergate Bridge" in 2022, and "The Wandering Earth 2" in 2023
This is unprecedented in the history of mainland film!
The second echelon of the Spring Festival file is fiercely competitive, and Zhang Xiaofei's new film is at the bottom
In addition to "The Wandering Earth 2", the first echelon of this year's Spring Festival file will definitely add "Manjiang Red"
As of 7 o'clock on January 22, the box office of "Manjiang Hong" broke 210 million on the first day, accounting for 25.6% of the films, contributing 29% of the box office, but lagging behind the box office of "The Wandering Earth 2", if the reputation is excellent, there is even the possibility of overtaking
If "Manjiang Hong" can surpass it, it will also mean a lot to Shen Teng
Shen Teng and Wu Jing have fought many times in the Spring Festival file, "Crazy Alien" against "The Wandering Earth" in 2019, "Four Seas" lost miserably to "Watergate Bridge" in 2022, Shen Teng did not win Wu Jing in the Spring Festival file, I don't know if Shen Teng can turn over this time
"Nameless" and "Exchange Life" are the second echelon
As of 7 o'clock on January 22, the box office of "Nameless" on the first day was 98.19 million, accounting for 12.8% of the film and 13.7% of the box office, "Nameless" was originally a good main theme blockbuster, but under the commotion of publicity, it became a pure fan-oriented movie
It's a pity that the appeal of traffic stars is really not worth mentioning in front of the Spring Festival file
Zhang Xiaofei's "Exchange Life" is currently at the bottom of the box office, but it has dark horse potential
As of 7 o'clock on January 22, the box office of "Exchange Life" on the first day was 70.25 million, ranking at the bottom of the four live-action movies that have been released during the Spring Festival, accounting for 17.3% of the films, but only contributing 9.6% of the box office
But the movie has a good reputation, and the pure comedy of the Spring Festival file is always a big dark horse, and the demand of many audiences in this schedule is to be happy
Zhang Xiaofei with "Hello! Li Huanying" has a very high national popularity, and with the blessing of excellent word of mouth, the film is expected to counterattack at the box office
"Bear Haunted" performed steadily, and "Deep Sea" had a polarized reputation
This year's Spring Festival two cartoons "Bear Haunted: With Me Bear Core" and "Deep Sea" have attracted high attention, but it is clear that the audience is different, resulting in a widening box office gap
As of 7 o'clock on January 22, "Bear Haunted: Bear Core with Me" had a box office of 73 million on the first day, accounting for 8.4% of the films, accounting for 9.8% of the box office, and the attendance rate was the highest among the new films in the Spring Festival file
In 2022, the box office of "Bear Haunted: Return to Earth" almost broke 1 billion, and this year I am optimistic that the bear haunt will break the ceiling of the series
"Deep Sea" was once regarded as the biggest dark horse in this year's Spring Festival file
Unfortunately, as of 7 o'clock on January 22, the box office of the film on the first day was only 47.09 million, accounting for 8.6% of the films and only 6.4% of the box office, which shows that the word of mouth affected the box office of the official release
The film party is full of confidence and opens the screening in advance. It's a pity that the feedback is actually general, the special effects picture is the pinnacle of domestic animation, but the plot of losing home is really not suitable for the Spring Festival file, plus I don't know why the cartoon sets the male protagonist's appearance so difficult to say
I am not optimistic about the box office performance of "Deep Sea" in the Spring Festival file
This year's Spring Festival file is a bit special, Deng Chao's "Chinese Table Tennis" was withdrawn to January 24, so the big winners and big losers of the Spring Festival file will not know until Deng Chao's new film is released
