According to the real-time data of Beacon Professional Edition, as of 0:00 on August 4, the box office of the film “Fengshen Part I” exceeded 1.4 billion, rising to No. 60 in the mainland film history list, and ranked No. 7 in this year’s annual box office list. In addition, the total box office (including pre-sales) of the 2023 summer season (June 1-August 31) has exceeded 13.5 billion.
A few days ago, an interview video from 2 years ago was exposed. Director Wu Ershan, who was still in the post-production of “Fengshen” at the time, said that when talking about the most dangerous directing in his career, he said that if the movie failed at the box office, his It will take 10 years to pay off the debt. According to reports, the “Feng Shen” trilogy has invested more than 3 billion yuan, and the total box office needs to be as high as 9 billion yuan to pay back.
To this end, he took his parents to his side in advance, and bought education insurance and other insurance for the child to ensure that his education will not be affected until he is at least 18 years old.
Although the box office seems to be doing well, it is still hard to say whether “Fengshen” will have a second and third part. At the beginning of the release, after all, director Wu Ershan said: “You need to see the results of the first film before you can continue to promote the post-production of the next two films. At present, it seems that the goal is still far away, and in fact, it has not yet left the ICU.”
According to a CCTV report in 2019, the “Fengshen” trilogy was originally planned to be released in the summer of 2020, 2021, and 2022, but due to various reasons such as the epidemic, the release time of the first part was delayed to 2023.
