On October 24, with the box office of "Chosin Lake" exceeding 5.268 billion, domestic film and television works once again returned to their peak state. However, several works released this week, in addition to "Dune" in the 3 days of release to win 117 million box office, "Uninvited Guest" and "First Incense Burner" box office cold, especially the high hopes of "First Incense Burner", which is Director Xu Anhua's next masterpiece after "Sister Peach" and "Thief of Years".
However, from the perspective of word of mouth and box office, this time, Director Xu Anhua's new film was tragically destroyed by Waterloo, with a Douban score of only 5.7 points and a box office of only 17.591 million in the 3 days of release. Such achievements still surprised and regretted many viewers.
Or briefly talk about this work directed by Xu Anhua, like "Dune", "The First Incense Burner" is also based on the classic IP adaptation, originally as Zhang Ailing's famous novel "Agarwood Crumbs • First Burnt Incense", which tells the story of the female student Ge Weilong being used by her aunt Mrs. Liang and the playboy Ge Qiqi Qiao to carry out a love tug-of-war with the playboy Ge Qiqi Qiao.
The film lineup is also very strong, bringing together Ma Sichun, Yu Feihong, Peng Yuyan, Zhang Junning and other powerful big names, however, probably because of the theme problem, the film has not been able to meet expectations, so the lineup, it is reasonable to say that the film broke 1 billion should not be a big problem, but according to the current box office development trend, whether the film can break 500 million is full of suspense.
All along, the literary and artistic films directed by Xu Anhua can be said to be of very secure quality, especially works such as "Sister Tao", "Thief of Years" and "Half Life" are all gods, but unfortunately, this time "The First Incense Burner" has not been able to continue its word-of-mouth myth.
We still hope that the film can achieve better results, and we also look forward to seeing more excellent works in the future, and also look forward to director Xu Anhua's better works in the future.
