Chapter 871: Virus Spread 3

"Ahhhh

"Oba, Oba!"

"Ahhhh

As soon as he got out of the airport, Xu Fei thought that the boiling water had become fine.

The two sides have already been separated, the police maintain order, Wuyang Yang is full of fans, and there are TV stations to shoot. Fans are old and young, holding support cards with Chinese characters "Leslie Cheung".

Someone came over to deliver flowers immediately, and the director + leading actor held it in their hands...... At the age of 37, at Seoul Airport, he was like a minion.

The camera almost slammed into the face, and followed until she got into the car, and the female reporter was stuck with various fish bones:

"Mr. Leslie Cheung, a middle-aged international superstar and the lover of 10,000 people, came to South Korea today with a new film for four days and four nights, in addition to promotional activities, he will also participate in a series of balabala ......"

"Bang!"

It was easy for the car door to close, blocking out the hustle and bustle, and the group breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's a lot more than Japan, and you're more popular in Korea than in Japan. "Gong Li is sour.

"Who said that? Of course they're all red, I'm an Asian idol!"

Leslie Cheung took off his sunglasses and said with a smile: "Because Japan's entertainment industry is very developed and relatively poor, South Korea developed later, and Hong Kong entertainment was their mainstream at that time." ”

Xu Yingzhu did not understand Chinese, asked the translator, and nodded hurriedly: "Mr. Leslie Cheung is a national idol in South Korea. ”

"Yes, I have watched "The True Color of Heroes", "The True Story of A Fei" and "Farewell My Concubine". Song Kang-ho answered.

"Hah!"

Xu Fei yawned in time, and Leslie Cheung turned his head: "Are you not convinced?"

"I'm not convinced, I'm also very handsome, I don't even have flowers. ”

"This was my negligence, I'm so sorry, I'm really sorry!"

Seo Young-so immediately raised his butt and bowed comically in the car, and the Korean personnel also bowed their heads in unison.

"Uh......"

On the contrary, he was a little embarrassed and waved his hand: "It's okay, just say it casually." ”

On the way to the hotel, introducing the itinerary for the next few days, Leslie Cheung's work is undoubtedly the heaviest, and he has to participate in interviews, variety shows, and several interviews.

His influence is indeed great and he is often seen in Korean film and television.

For example, the "True Colors of Heroes" series, the song "Love of the Year", and the paragraph in "The True Story of A Fei" are imitated from time to time.

Mr. Xu watched a Korean movie about a girl who was frozen in 99 and woke up in 19.

Then I saw Leslie Cheung's album in the video store, and excitedly asked the boss: "Is there a new song by Leslie Cheung?"

The boss wondered: "That's his memorial album, didn't he die 16 years ago?"

It can be seen.

Several people were talking, but Tsui Hark looked serious.

When they left Japan, the box office there was already more than 2 billion, and Xu Laowei was under pressure and very excited: "The Legend of Shushan" had just pounced, and "Virus" seemed to be a big hit......

The ups and downs of life are simply so exciting!

"Boss Song has already gone back to arrange first, don't worry. ”

Xu Fei patted him and said: "After South Korea, the next stop is Hong Kong and Taiwan, and the two places will be released at the same time." The propaganda has already begun, just to lend your name, don't mind. ”

"What's wrong, the box office is good, it's too late for me to be happy. ”

Tsui Hark is in a very positive state of mind now, how can he publicize it? He said that he is a slander on the street, a mountain of gold and silver, and a salted fish has turned over!

............

"Oba ...... Woowoo...... Oba!"

"Woooooooooo......oo It's so touching!"

The next day, "Virus" was released.

Korean audiences are not as accustomed to Japan, they should cry, they should laugh, and the audience should be assi!

The media gave it a high rating:

"Zombie films have always had no chance with the East, but as soon as this four-place co-production "Virus" came out, it has already set the standard.

The atmosphere, rhythm, scenes, performances, and portrayal of human nature are all first-class, not only borrowing from Hollywood routines, but also having their own innovations, and the use of various elements is very skillful.

Call it the highest level of commercial cinema in Asia, at least I agree with it. ”

"Song Kang-ho showed precise and skillful skills, played the characters vividly and cutely, and played a very central role in the advancement of the story and the relationship between the characters.

This was the beginning of his internationalization!"

"The film is rich in settings, the virus has obviously spread to all of Asia, and the sequel must of course be placed in South Korea!"

"South Korea has been exploring commercial blockbusters in recent years, and many excellent works have emerged, and they have brought their experience and strength to Virus.

Korean cinema is on the rise!"

The evaluation is indeed very high, but the core part is a bit off, if it is not conclusive, "Virus" can become a Korean film.

"Train to Busan" has achieved 11.56 million viewers in China, 93.1 billion won, or 80 million US dollars.

Now the film market is not as prosperous as in later generations, and it lacks local elements, so it must have fallen sharply. But this film is making money from all over the world, and it is dominated by the Japanese box office.

It was also the first night of leaving, and Seo Young-so held a drinking party.

Xu Fei is handsome and humorous, and has attracted many female stars. He also saw Jun Ji-hyun, who played a remake of "My Sassy Girlfriend", which was also very popular.

So he lamented again: My Korean entertainment!

"The first week was good, with a total of 420,000 people in two days!"

When Seo Young-so told the news, several people were at a loss, how many people did you report it!

It's good anyway.

In the current Korean film market, millions of people are blockbusters, and this year's box office champion "Home Glory" has only more than 5 million people, and it has been shown for 10 weeks.

The first breakthrough of a local blockbuster was "Shiwei Island" in 03, 7 weeks, 8.9 million people. followed "Tai Chi Flag Flying" in 04, which was released for 13 weeks and 11.72 million people.

Japan is the same, "Spirited Away" broke 10 billion in 25 days, which is already the fastest record, and it took 19 years to break it by "Demon Slayer" breaking 10 billion in 10 days.

So "Virus" is a long-term screening.

"Mr. Xu!"

Seo Young-so called Xu Fei to the side and asked, "Don't you really think about a sequel?"

"What do you mean?"

""Virus" relies on the Japanese market this time, and next time they will definitely open their mouths, and the copyright is in the hands of the four of us, as long as one of them does not agree, the sequel will not be able to be filmed.

Don't look at the excitement now, I don't think there is much opportunity.

It's better to start a new work, and we will support it to create another big production for pan-Asia and even the world. ”

Ooh!

This grandson is a goblin.

Copyright is a big issue, and if you can't come up with a script that satisfies everyone, the sequel won't be able to play at all.

Xu Fei pondered, it was a pity that "Virus" was put on the shelf like this, so he said: "I'll think about it." ”

............

For more than a month, Xu Fei has been busy promoting "Virus" outside.

The Japanese box office has already opened, reaching more than 9 billion, and it is still possible to rush for 10 billion. South Korea's performance is naturally much lower than that of "Train to Busan", which has about 4 million passengers.

Historically, "Train to Busan" was released in Japan every other year, resulting in the loss of a large box office.

Now the two places are almost at the same time, and the total box office soon reached 90 million US dollars.

At Xu Fei's suggestion, filmmakers from all over the world promoted in advance how the highest level of commercial films in Asia was popular in South Korea and Japan, which aroused the interest of fans around the world early.

And then there were:

""Virus" will land in North American theaters in the second half of the year!"

"An epic breakthrough for Asian genre blockbusters!"

"Chinese filmmakers dominate the feast!"

"Half a step fast is a genius, one step fast is a madman. When Tsui Hark of "The Legend of Shu Mountain" slowed down, we saw his back!"

Old Xu panicked.

But he is very famous in the Chinese-speaking area, and he has Shushan in front of the street, which is a very good gimmick.

(And ...... )
