During the National Day holiday in 2024, the film market will usher in a boom again. According to the data of Maoyan Professional Edition, as of 13:51 on October 7, the box office list of new films in the 2024 National Day file (October 1-October 7) exceeded 2 billion, and "Volunteers: Battle of Survival", "749 Bureau" and "The Road to Fire" ranked the top three in the box office list of new films in the National Day file.
On October 5, director Lu Chuan, starring Miao Miao, Zheng Kai, and Li Junmo came to Hangzhou for a roadshow with the sci-fi drama "749 Bureau".

On the first day of the National Day file, the film successfully won the single-day box office crown, winning 173 million yuan at the box office. However, the film's subsequent box office declined significantly. In the face of this controversy, the main creative team did not choose to escape, but resolutely continued their national roadshow and actively promoted the film. Lu Chuan faced the controversy in the outside world, and he said frankly, "Audiences who have watched the movie, I think I can accept any opinion." As a filmmaker, he also hopes to give the audience a satisfactory answer.

On October 6, the reporter visited the Zhejiang Film Times Cinema located in the West Lake Cultural Square. Hu Tao, the operation manager of the cinema, said that since October 1, major theaters in Hangzhou have ushered in a small peak in passenger flow. Zhejiang Film Times Cinema West Lake Cultural Square Store is no exception, with an endless stream of audiences coming to watch the movie, and the popular shows are almost full. "Compared with last year's National Day schedule, this year's performance is particularly outstanding. As of 17:00 on October 6, 2024, the total box office of the theater during the National Day has reached about 800,000 yuan, and the number of moviegoers received is close to 17,000. ”
From October 10th, the cinema will continue to launch the "Rejuvenation of a Strong Country with Me" theme film screening activities, carefully selecting 11 public welfare films including "The Last Kilometer", "My Father Jiao Yulu", "College Entrance Examination 1977" and "Yuan Longping".
