Cinema box office
According to the professional version of Maoyan, at about 15:52 on July 7, the box office of the 2023 summer season in mainland China will reach 6 billion yuan. Among them, "She Who Disappeared", which just broke through the box office of 2.8 billion yuan on July 7, accounted for 46.9% of the box office.
→ "The Missing She" broke 2.6 billion, how did it become a hit?
Previously, the industry predicted that the total box office of the summer season in 2023 would exceed 10 billion yuan. At present, this estimate seems to be a little conservative. In 2019, the summer box office reached 17.6 billion yuan. In 2018, the summer box office was 13.824 billion yuan. In 2017, the summer box office was 16.3 billion yuan.

According to the professional version of Maoyan, as of 16:00 on July 7, the top three box office of the day were: "The Vanishing She", "Transformers: Rise of the Super Warrior" and "In the Octagonal Cage".
"In the Octagonal Cage"
Although "In the Octagonal Cage" is scheduled for July 6, the film has been screened on a large scale since June 22. During the screening stage, it has earned 400 million yuan at the box office. Looking at it now, this turnaround of Wang Baoqiang's career as a director has a trend of "tap water". Many artists in the circle have reserved the show, including episodes in the albums of Andy Lau and Liu Ruoying, whom Wang Baoqiang met in "A World Without Thieves", and even Stephen Chow. support.
Stills of "In the Octagonal Cage"
In the movie, Wang Baoqiang is still the familiar Wang Baoqiang, with a disheveled face and a grassroots background. He fights really hard and desperately. If he wants to make a joke with the audience, it will definitely make people laugh. But he has become different again. The contradiction between the survival and education of left-behind children, the stereotype of the collective unconsciousness, and the cyber violence induced by people with intentions... It was a surprise beyond expectations for the familiar Wang Baoqiang, and it was also the story of the children and En Bo. Fight Club evolved from a reality prototype to a more intriguing extension of a movie.

"Fireworks in My World"
"Fireworks in My World" poster
The bright spot is that the firefighter part exceeded expectations. Just looking at the actor configuration and the main line of romance, I didn't expect the professional part to be brilliant. Yang Yang already has a military temperament, so it’s not a problem to play a firefighter. The point is that the director’s portrayal of the firefighter’s work is very vivid. Trapped in a fire scene full of thick smoke, when the driver is seriously injured and stuck underwater, when the heroine is trapped in the car due to heavy rain, the atmosphere of the camera can make people feel hopeless, and when they see the firefighters appear, they really think they are angels, It exudes light, and this sense of light does not need to be slowed down by a filter at all.
But compared to the male protagonist’s profession, the female protagonist’s doctor’s profession is a bit perfunctory. The budget is obviously different, and there are almost no important medical scenes. The hospital plot basically appears to serve the intersection with the male protagonist. The professional level of the heroine as a doctor can't bear to be scrutinized.
Compared with the brilliant firefighting scenes, the director always shuts down suddenly in the emotional scenes, because following the old-fashioned Mary Su plot, the poor boy and the eldest lady, people who often watch idol dramas can completely predict their reactions every time they meet, Xu Qin's behavior towards Song Yan in the early stage was really inexplicable. He didn't have the courage to choose him, but he had the courage to find his family, friends and colleagues to show his presence, which is confusing.
Generally speaking, as long as the proportion of firefighting scenes is maintained, you can ignore the emotional line and take a look.
"bonds of this world"
"Fate" poster
The old-fashioned Xianxia drama, the exaggerated skin care filter, so that all the lipsticks turn into fluorescent colors, the relationship between the characters still has a sense of the world, there is no perfect truth, goodness and beauty, all the characters have their own thoughts, like "Zhu Xian" The male cultivating immortal drama of the era. Although the ancient dramas of cultivating immortals were not refined enough, they were better than human beings. As soon as the male protagonist appeared on the stage, he murdered the real immortal for money, took away his status as a banished immortal, and then got involved in disputes among sects in the immortal world. Bian Sheng's act of killing immortals is quite interesting.
But the follow-up plot is a bit out of date. After watching five or six episodes, it looks boring. On the one hand, the male and female protagonists have no sense of CP. Angelababy can play an urban beauty, but it is obviously impossible to play such a role that requires a sense of faith. Juicy smile, but also can't find the scale of an innocent girl, Ma Tianyu has no sense of youth at all. Secondly, the logic problem is more serious. The behavior of the exiled immortal after being rescued is difficult to figure out, scattered and confusing.
In fact, Angelababy and Ma Tianyu are not people who have no acting skills at all. At this age, it is a win-win situation to find some urban scripts that suit their age.
"Jade Bone Remote"
"Jade Bone" poster
Watching it slowly, the favorability of the series may increase. Ren Min is getting thinner and thinner, and the face is more refined. I guess it may be that the filming is getting thinner. The rhythm of the content of the series is relatively stable. No episode is very If you want to fast forward, Shiying is about to accept its first apprentice!
Little Zhu Yan teases Shi Ying and accidentally discovers Shi Ying's transformation bug, so she repeatedly tries to be on the verge of being beaten, and the childishness of the two cannot exceed that of junior high school students. But don’t say it, really don’t say it, such a naive plot in summer is quite refreshing, I always feel that it makes people feel cooler and clearer, maybe this is due to Ren Min’s grasp of the eccentric character design, plus In appearance, she is not a glamorous beauty, and there are gentle and ladylike girlfriends around her, which somehow makes people feel like they have returned to their youth.
"Spiritual drama is compelling"
"Spiritual Drama" poster
TVB's creative topic selection is somewhat similar to "Rouge Button", also known as "My Cohabitation Life with a Female Ghost". Due to a coincidence, a great musician and a Cantonese opera Huadan who has been dead for many years and has turned into a female ghost live together. In order to help Huadan girl find her boyfriend who was a Cantonese opera screenwriter, the great musician had to accompany her to search for clues. In the process, he also popularized the knowledge of Cantonese opera. The village house they lived in happened to be the few existing Cantonese opera troupe. location.
The Cantonese opera element is obviously the biggest highlight. The plot is a bit dull at present, but Zhang Zhenlang's acting skills are good, and he is one of the current first-line niche students. Gong Jiaxin is also beautiful and talented. She has performed brilliantly in recent years. Many audiences like her very much. . Generally speaking, the current texture is online, and it is a funny and cute dinner drama.

"Future China" Season 2
The first episode of the second season of "Future China" broadcast on July 7 invited Jia Yang, the deputy chief designer of the lunar and Mars probes.

It is these three vehicles that make China the only country that conducts patrols and explorations on the moon and Mars at the same time.
"Future China" Season 2 Poster
From a boy looking at the stars in a small northeast town to a man who built cars for the moon and Mars, he chose to carry out "Chinese-style romance" to the end. At the beginning of designing the Mars rover, Jia Yang had an obsession: to design a powerful and beautiful Mars rover. Adhering to the idea of bringing traditional Chinese culture to Mars, the "Zhurong" Mars rover was designed as a beautiful blue morpho butterfly, with a letter written in "nine-fold seal script" on its "forehead". The word "fire" and even the word "zhong" are designed on the two rear wheels, which is full of strong Chinese style. At the same time, he is also a romantic poet. Rainbow Bay on the moon is the pre-selected landing area for the Yutu lunar rover. Before the "Tianwen-1" Mars exploration mission, Jia Yang used 189 photos of star trails to compose a photo called "The Stars in the Sky Can Talk". The star track on the photo corresponds to the Morse code, which translates to "Tianwen No. 1", which contains all his wishes for "Tianwen No. 1" before its departure.
"Ride the Wind 2023 "

"Ride the Wind 2023" is still the PK battle of the three major joint creation teams. The 21 sisters are divided into three major leagues, with Ella, Xie Na, and Amber as the captains.
Every time it comes to the fourth and fifth stages, the audience is tired and the players are also tired. There are no new topics, and at most there are some discussions about the group night.
Recently, it was reported on the Internet that Mango will be broadcasting a variety show Reuters - the latest program "Taste of China" on Mango Channel at 50 o'clock every week has recently started recording. The first stop is Quanzhou. Ella, chipu, Gong Linna, Zhu Zhu, Wu Xin, Cai Shaofen are already in place. It is expected to premiere on August 4th.
Judging from the lineup, it should be a derivative program of "Sister Lang 4". I hope the sisters can enjoy a relaxing time traveling.
