""The Man with a Name" defeated "Ambush on All Sides" and became the 2004 mainland Olympic film!" --- Sohu Entertainment reported

""The Man Without a Name" defeated "Ambush on All Sides", and Chen Hao hit the Oscars for the first time for Best Foreign Language Film!" --- Wangyi Entertainment

"The Man Without a Surname" won, and Chen Hao suppressed the national teacher twice at the box office!" --- New Wolf Entertainment

......

The mainland of China finally chose "The Man Without a Name" to impact this year's Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film!

Chen Hao also defeated the other party again in the competition with the national teacher, completing the double kill of the box office and Olympic qualification!

This result also made the media lively again, after Chen Hao and Feng Dacang had a verbal fight, the media began to be keen on establishing the old and new dispute between Chen Hao and the national teacher!

No way, as a newly rising business director, coupled with his own conditions, Chen Hao can be called the top traffic in the industry now, and he is on fire, and the media who want to win attention will naturally not let him go.

Moreover, an entertainment upstart and a best director, the dialogue between each other is indeed very interesting, so it is no wonder that everyone is very interested.

Domestic reports about the competition between the two are very lively, but Chen Hao in the United States can't receive it, but "The Man with No Name" qualified for the Olympics and made Chen Hao feel good.

However, this is only the qualification to register, and we will not know until mid-December whether we will be shortlisted for the final 9 in the primary selection!

As for being able to nominate and win awards, that was almost 2005.

After learning about a matter of his heart, Chen Hao continued to be busy with the promotion of "The Hangover".

And "The Hangover" was also submitted to the MPAA immediately after the editing and production, and the final result was expected, R-rated, due to "a lot of foul language, vulgar language, and violence." ”

After "The Hangover" was rated R, it was met with more skepticism from the media!

"R-rated comedy?Thanksgiving schedule?Chan still has hope for 'The Hangover,'" ---Chicago Tribune.

"R-grade? is expected, but it may be difficult for the box office to exceed 100 million. --- Los Angeles Times

"The R-rated comedy "The Hangover" is scheduled for November 24, and it may be difficult to make a difference at the box office!" --- "USA Today"

......

"The Hangover" has not yet been released, but the media has a lot of box office predictions for the film.

Among them, 68% of those who believe that "The Hangover" will not reach $100 million at the box office, in addition to 25% who believe that "The Hangover" should be between $1 and $120 million.

Only 6% of people think that "The Hangover" can exceed $150 million at the box office, and only 1% think that the box office can exceed $200 million!

Because considering the quality of the film, the schedule factor should also be considered.

So far, the North American R-rated film champion is "Beverly Hills Detective", an action comedy released on December 1, 1984, with 234 million in North America and 316 million worldwide.

The second place is the romantic comedy "Pretty Woman" released on March 23, 1990, Julia Roberts's famous work, 178 million in North America and 463 million worldwide.

The third place is "I'm Crazy for Mary" released on December 15, 1998, with 176 million in North America and 369 million worldwide.

Then came the release on July 7, 2000, with 157 million "Screaming Laughter" in North America.

followed by "American Pie 2" on August 10 last year...... 16

However, they are basically in the summer vacation and Christmas schedules, and few people dare to put an R-rated comedy on Thanksgiving.

Not to mention the age-old "Beverly Hills Detective", the most recent blockbuster film is "The Straight Dancing Man" released on December 10, 1999, with a cost of 17 million, 65 million in North America and 92 million worldwide.

Obviously, R-rated comedies don't mix well on the Thanksgiving schedule, does "The Hangover" have what it takes to be "Beverly Hills Detective"?

I'm afraid that many people give a negative answer to this question, after all, it is the box office record of R-rated films in North American film history, which has been maintained for so many years, and it is not so easy to be broken!

At the same time, on November 24, when "The Hangover" was released, there were many powerful films in the same schedule.

On November 19, the action-adventure film "National Treasure", produced by Disney and starring Nicolas Cage, with an investment of up to $100 million, premiered.

A-grade production, plus Uncle Cage, is obviously menacing!

On November 24, "Escape from Christmas", which was released on the same day as "The Hangover", is based on the work of the same name by a well-known family, has a certain fan base, and has an investment of 60 million US dollars, which should not be underestimated.

On November 24, there was also a war epic masterpiece "Alexander the Great" with an investment of up to $155 million.

In the face of an epic masterpiece of this magnitude, I believe that there is no movie that will not feel pressure.

"The Hangover" is considered by the media and critics to be of a worrisome quality in its own right, while also facing direct competition from two super-productions and a film that also exceeds its own investment.

And "National Treasure" and "Escape from Christmas" are both PG-level, which is another big advantage for moviegoers.

Therefore, it is no wonder that the North American media will continue to watch "The Hangover"!

The only good thing now should be that "The Hangover" is very well-known throughout North America, at least the publicity effect is leveraged.

It is estimated that there are still many people who are willing to enter the theater to have a look, but it is unknown whether the film is really funny and what the audience's reputation is.

Amid the media skepticism, the time soon came to November 24th, and today is Wednesday.

Because the 25th is Thanksgiving Day and the 26th is Friday, the movies have been brought forward to the premiere on November 24.

Today, "The Hangover" will officially premiere in 3,200 theaters in North America, along with two other super-productions premiering on a large scale.

On a sunny and warm afternoon, the red carpet outside the Huaxia Grand Theater was very lively, and the handsome and beautiful stars in suits and evening dresses were all smiling.

The premiere of "The Hangover" was taking place with each posing to take pictures with photographers, answering questions from media reporters on both sides of the railing, and waving to enthusiastic fans chanting their names.

Today's red carpet can be described as star-studded, in addition to the leading actors of the crew of "The Hangover", there are many guests who came to help, Liam Neeson who became popular again, South African diamond Charlize Theron, the delicate and glamorous widow sister, boxing champion Tyson and so on.

"Chen, do you still think that "The Hangover" can be a big hit at the box office?"

"Of course, I have confidence in my film!" Chen Hao answered reporters' questions while walking the red carpet.

"Do you think 'The Hangover' can beat 'National Treasure' and 'Alexander the Great'?"

"Anything is possible!" Chen Hao said vaguely, and then stopped giving interviews.

......

The sky gradually darkened, and the outside of the Huaxia Grand Theater changed from lively to deserted, and all the stars, reporters, and fans and audiences walked into the theater, ready to watch the premiere.

And in the 3,200 theaters in North America, although not all of them are full, there are not many vacant seats, after all, "The Hangover" has long been noisy.
