Chapter 411: "The Man Without a Name" global box office

The mainland box office of "The Man Without a Name" was 169 million yuan, while the final box office of "Kung Fu" was 173 million, a difference of less than 4 million yuan!

But it is this gap that made Chen Hao still miss the honor of the annual box office champion in the mainland after defeating Feng Dacang and the national teacher!

And Xing Ye's debut in the mainland directly defeated three of the four major directors in the mainland, which can be described as a step to the sky!

Let countless mainland fans and the industry see Xingye's strong box office appeal and directorial talent in the mainland!

At the same time, the box office battle between "The Man Without a Name" and "Kung Fu" is not only manifested in the mainland, but also in the global competition.

"The Man Without a Name" is released in 56 countries and regions around the world, while "Kung Fu" is 55, but if you add its release in North America in April, then the scale of the global release of the two films is exactly the same.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or intentional, but both global publishers are Sony Columbia!

Moreover, Sony Columbia is also a major investor in Kung Fu!

At the same time, Chen Hao also got the news that Sony Columbia directly arranged 2,503 theaters for the North American premiere of "Kung Fu", directly exceeding the 2,100 theaters of "No Name", and setting a new record for the number of theaters premiered/released in North America for Chinese films!

Chen Hao always felt that he was being targeted from this news, maybe Sony Columbia saw that he was disobedient and wanted to support Xing Ye to balance himself and make himself well-behaved!

Whether this is the case or not, Chen Hao will only, hehe!

No matter what Sony Colombia thinks, the global box office of Star Ye's "Kung Fu" is indeed strong, especially in Asia!

In addition to 173 million yuan in the mainland, about 21 million US dollars.

"Kung Fu" refreshed the box office record of 60.73 million Hong Kong dollars held by the previous Chinese film "Shaolin Football", which was also a star, in Xiangjiang, and finally hit down 61.28 million Hong Kong dollars, or about 8.1 million US dollars!

In Treasure Island, the box office of "Kung Fu" successfully exceeded 200 million, reaching NT$254 million, or about $6.5 million!

In South Korea, the number of moviegoers of "Kung Fu" exceeded 960,000, ranking fourth in the list of Chinese films in South Korea, about 6 million US dollars!

In the island country, "Kung Fu" achieved a box office result of 1.7 billion yen, ranking 10th in the Japanese box office list of Chinese films, about 16.5 million US dollars!

All other regions totaled about $45 million, and with the exception of North America, Kung Fu grossed $103 million worldwide at this time!

And the box office of "The Man Without a Name" in the mainland is 169 million yuan, about 20.5 million US dollars!

In Xiangjiang, the box office of "The Man Without a Surname" is far inferior to "Kung Fu", which only won 15.8 million Hong Kong dollars, just ranking 10th in the annual box office list of Xiangjiang in 2004!

And this is already the best result of mainland films in Hong Kong this year, not only that, but this result even ranks second among all mainland films at the box office in Hong Kong!

The first place is "Hero" of the National Teacher, with a box office of 26.67 million Hong Kong dollars in Xiangjiang!

Whether in the past life or in this life, the box office of mainland movies is extremely bleak in Xiangjiang and Baodao, as well as in South Korea!

Even if the mainland film market rose strongly, it could only explode in the mainland, and once it went outside the mainland, the results were even worse than ten years ago!

Chinese films are really getting weaker and weaker overseas, and it is never an exaggeration to say that the civil war is an insider, and the foreign war is a layman!

Let's just say that "Wolf Warrior 2" finally ranked in the top 100 of the global box office list, but it is almost completely supported by the mainland box office, and the box office outside the mainland is basically negligible!

On the one hand, the mainland box office is growing explosively every year, and on the other hand, the overseas influence of Chinese films is declining, which is really hard to describe!

"The Man Without a Name" in Xiangjiang box office is 15.8 million Hong Kong dollars, about 2.1 million US dollars, which is also the best result of the film directed by Chen Hao in Xiangjiang!

And on Treasure Island, the box office of "The Man Without a Name" was NT$60 million, or about $1.53 million!

This is also the reason why many of Chen Hao's previous movies were released on Treasure Island, plus he became famous in North America and won the Oscar.

And Treasure Island is a dumping ground for Hollywood movies, so Chen Hao is well-known in Treasure Island, but mainland movies are indeed not very popular in Treasure Island.

Chen Hao's best box office performance in Treasure Island came from "Hurricane Rescue", which won NT$98 million!

However, "Hurricane Rescue" is basically a Hollywood movie except for the investment of Huaying!

In South Korea, "The Man Without a Name" reached 500,000 viewers and grossed about $3.15 million, ranking third at the box office of Chinese-language films released in South Korea in 2004!

Of course, in 2004, there were only 7 Chinese-language films released in South Korea, the highest being 1.41 million viewers of "Ambush on All Sides", followed by 960,000 viewers of "Kung Fu"!

Although the number of viewers of "The Man Without a Name" is only 500,000, it is already the sixth most watched Chinese film in South Korea, and it is also the best box office result of Chen Hao's personal film in South Korea.

Chen Hao's film did not do well at the box office in South Korea, but if it is only compared with Chinese films, it is not bad.

Because Chen Hao's Virgo "Comet" won the New Wave Award in South Korea, it can be said that it has some connections with South Korea, and in addition to being famous in North America, South Korea has also studied whether Chen Hao is a South Korean.

In the island country, "The Man Without a Surname" has won a total of 800 million box office, ranking 27th in the box office list of Chinese films in the island country!

ranked before the 790 million yen of 1988's "Flying Dragon Warrior" and after the 820 million of 1998's "Jing Ke Assassination Qin", which is about 4.85 million US dollars!

In the North American film market, "The Man Without a Name" is still being released, and the box office has now reached a total of $52 million, but with the Oscars coming, the box office of "The Man Without a Name" is likely to fluctuate again.

With a box office performance of $52 million, it ranks fourth in the North American foreign language film box office list, behind "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Life is Beautiful" and "Hero"!

Speaking of which, in the box office list of foreign language films in North America, the top five are occupied by Chinese-language films with 3 seats, and there are also 4 in the top ten, and then Italy, France and Mexico each have 2 seats!

In the Asian film market, "The Man Without a Name" grossed a total of 32.13 million US dollars, which is far inferior to "Kung Fu"!

But in the European and South American film markets, "The Man Without a Name" won a total of $50 million at the box office, surpassing "Kung Fu"!

Therefore, the global box office of "The Man Without a Name" should be $134 million for the time being!

This achievement set a global record for Chen Hao's personal best Chinese film box office, and it is also Chen Hao's third highest global box office, behind "The Hangover" at $450 million and "District 9" at $252 million!

And "Kung Fu" has not yet been released in North America, and the global box office is $103 million!

Unless "Kung Fu" can exceed $31 million at the North American box office, "The Man Without a Name" will beat "Kung Fu" at the global box office!
