Chapter 553: Is It Really an Investment?

The release of "God of War" gave fans a deeper understanding of the nine kingdoms of the gods that appeared in the superhero movie universe.

Before that, I could only learn something from the "Thor" series of movies.

God of War doesn't mention much about it, though.

The film tells the story of the "civil war" of the Eastern Heavenly Court in the Nine Kingdoms.

As for the rest, it is estimated that it will only appear in the second phase.

When the film was released, the word-of-mouth was as good as ever, and it was not liked by film critics, but it was talked about by fans.

The box office was also a bit hotter than expected.

Although the narrative style of the film is not static, it is also a consistent routine.

However, the oriental elements of this film are much stronger.

In China, the box office exceeded 300 million on the first day, and it won the throne of the single-day box office champion without any suspense.

This box office is not very good, and it is not bad.

Today, the box office of superhero movies on the first day is less than 300 million in China, which may be a failure in the eyes of many people.

However, if the box office of other films breaks 300 million, it will be a big hit.

The expectation value is different, and the feeling is naturally different.

This is determined by the huge fan base, as well as the production and distribution of the film.

At home, it was within expectations, while abroad it was somewhat beyond expectations.

In North America, the first-day box office won $60 million, topping the single-day box office list.

Countries and regions such as Europe and Southeast Asia have basically won the single-day box office championship, even if they do not win the single-day box office championship, they are definitely among the top three in the single-day box office list.

There is no doubt that the film was a success.

And the god of war in the heavenly court played by Miao Xun also became popular immediately.

Miao Xun's popularity in China has always been good, and his popularity abroad is not bad, but his popularity is a little unsatisfactory.

Perhaps, many foreign fans can recognize him at a glance, and even say his name, as well as the title of the starring movie. However, few people will walk into the theater because of him.

Being well-known and being popular are two different things.

And this time, with the role of "God of War", his popularity has skyrocketed a lot.

"God of War" has also become a role that foreign fans are most familiar with him.

When the film was released, the discussion of this character was naturally everywhere on the Internet.

Among them, the most discussed is the combat power ranking of this character.

Today, Thanos is still at the top of the power rankings.

And "Odin", "Director of the Special Administration", "Thor", "Sword Immortal", "Martial God" and other characters are still competing for the second place in the combat power list, and they are still very fierce, taking turns to sit in the village.

Now, the role of "God of War" has also been added.

Of course, in the film "God of War", the "Emperor of Heaven" who appeared also joined this competition.

As for why Thanos is unshakable at the top of the list, it is naturally because Mu Chen told media reporters before that his combat power is the highest among many characters.

These roles, who is the most powerful, Mu Chen is undoubtedly the authority.

As for the rest, they are all "analyzed" by fans based on their own preferences.

"God of War" was released, and Mu Chen didn't pay much attention to this film.

He is now focusing on new films.

However, occasionally it will be delayed by other things.

"You haven't even talked about it, can I? Do you think I look like a person who is good at negotiating?" Mu Chen looked at Xia Zhiyun, frowned, and said.

After the jewelry exhibition hijacking case, a wave of Chinese kung fu fever was set off, and Xia Zhiyun took the opportunity to open the Guoshu Alliance to Europe and other places, including the United Kingdom, Germany, France, etc., which have been negotiated, but Canada has not negotiated.

Xia Zhiyun found Mu Chen this time, naturally she wanted Mu Chen to come forward.

"You have a lot more influence abroad than I do. Xia Zhiyun said, "A large part of the reason why Europe can talk about it is because of you!"

Hongmen also has a lot of influence in Europe, especially in the Chinese martial arts hall and security business.

Xia Zhiyun walked the connections on the Hongmen side.

Those few national martial arts gyms also cooperated with boxers who were somewhat related to Hongmen.

A martial arts hall like the National Arts Alliance can't rent a place and distribute a few leaflets.

Before opening, it won't work if you don't get some joints out.

"What do you mean over there?" Mu Chen asked.

Mu Chen is not from Hongmen, but because Liao Chengzhi has a lot of relationship with him, and he is very famous and has great influence among overseas Chinese, everyone in Hongmen is willing to give him face.

However, on the Canadian side, Hongmen did not involve much in martial arts and security, and its influence was relatively weak.

At least, it has much less influence than another Chinese organization.

Xia Zhiyun wants to open the Guoshu Pavilion to Canada, and he has to nod from the Chinese organization. Otherwise, even if it opens, it will definitely be in trouble.

"I don't know, but I have a vague feeling that they want to talk to you. Xia Zhiyun shook his head and said.

"Then you're going to let me talk to them?" Mu Chen pouted and said, "Why do you have to open the martial arts gym to Canada?"

"The martial arts halls of the National Arts Alliance are all over the world, and if Canada does not have them, it will inevitably make people feel regretful. Xia Zhiyun said.

"Let's let the martial arts halls spread all over Europe first!" Mu Chen thought for a while and said, "Canada let it go first!"

Xia Zhiyun looked at Mu Chen with some surprise.

She could see that Mu Chen didn't want to talk to those people.

Perhaps, Mu Chen is reluctant to contact with those.

"Those people must have come to me for a different purpose. Mu Chen said.

This kind of feeling, as soon as Xia Zhiyun said it just now, he had this feeling.

What purpose, Mu Chen was not curious.

It's not a good thing anyway.

What's more, Mu Chen really didn't want to come into contact with those people.

If it weren't for Mu Chen's fame and influence enough, I'm afraid that he would have been in trouble long ago if he came into contact with the people of Hongmen.

Hongmen is white, and those people are black.

"A different purpose?" Xia Zhiyun was stunned for a moment and said.

Mu Chen shook his head and said no more.

Xia Zhiyun didn't continue this topic anymore, Mu Chen was unwilling, so the plan on the Canadian side had to be abandoned.

Moreover, after what Mu Chen said just now, she also felt that those people were not looking for Mu Chen for the martial arts hall, but as a guide to talk to Mu Chen about other things.

Mu Chen of the Guoshu Alliance is one of the major shareholders, but he rarely asks.

The matter of the Canadian martial arts gym, Mu Chen then left it behind.

However, what should come, will still come.

In mid-November, "God of War" was released for more than a month and gradually painted.

The domestic box office exceeded 3 billion, the North American box office exceeded 300 million US dollars, and the global cumulative box office exceeded 1 billion US dollars.

Compared to other superhero movies, the box office is a bit underwhelming.

However, this box office was a little higher than expected.

Expectations were met, and the second solo film of God of War was included in the program.

Mu Chen didn't pay too much attention, he was on the plane heading to Xiangjiang at this time.

This trip to Xiangjiang has nothing to do with the movie, nor does it have anything to do with the Guoshu Alliance.

Xiangjiang naturally has the martial arts hall of the National Arts Alliance, and it is extremely popular, and it has already entered the right track.

He went to attend the ribbon cutting of the opening of Xiangjiang Dawn Dream Theme Park.

The third "Dawn Dream" theme park opens!

Construction of a fourth is already underway.

The fourth has already gone abroad and settled in Los Angeles.

"Are you in Xiangjiang, are you free tonight?

As soon as Mu Chen and Cheng Ting arrived at the hotel, they received a call from Chu Yuhua.

He didn't talk nonsense, but said straight to the point.

"See me, who!" Mu Chen asked casually with a smile.

"From Canada. Chu Yuhua said.

He didn't say it explicitly, but Mu Chen guessed who the other party was as soon as he heard it.

With a narrowing of his eyes, the corners of Mu Chen's mouth twitched, and then he said, "You can arrange it!"

Mu Chen didn't refuse, and it was not easy to refuse.

The other party did not come to the door directly, but through Chu Yuhua.

Chu Yuhua's face still has to be given.

What's more, Mu Chen was also curious about what the gang had to do with him.

That night, Mu Chen watched the time go away.

"I'm just pulling the strings, you can say what you think, don't take care of me. ”

Chu Yuhua saw Mu Chen and said in a low voice.

Will Mu Chen worry about Chu Yuhua?

I'm afraid not!

The two may have some origins, but they are not reluctant to make it difficult because of Chu Yuhua.

Chu Yuhua naturally knew it, so he said so. In addition to settling the relationship, I am afraid that it also has the meaning of saving face for yourself.

Mu Chen smiled and nodded.

He and Chu Yuhua walked to the private room, and there was already a person sitting inside.

There were two people behind him, but they didn't sit down.

The man was in his fifties, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and his eyes were shining.

This is a practitioner!

When he saw Mu Chen and the others coming in, he immediately got up and greeted him with a smile.

After some politeness, Mu Chen knew that this person's name was Yuan Chengzhou, and he was a talker of the Canadian Youth Gang. He found himself for only one purpose, and that was to invest in his films.

Is it really just an investment?

Apparently not!

"Whether it's Dawn Film or Television, or Dream Pictures, there is no shortage of funds. If Mr. Yuan really wants to invest in the film and television industry, I think Hollywood has a lot of suitable ones. Mu Chen shook his head and said.

The investment is fake, but the money laundering is probably the real one.

How could Mu Chen agree.

The smile on Yuan Chengzhou's face did not change at all, and the person behind him looked at Mu Chen's eyes much more severely.

However, for Mu Chen, there was no impact at all.

Today, Mu Chen is not afraid of them.

"That would be a pity. Yuan Chengzhou said with a smile, "Mr. Mu's "Titanic" swept the world, with a box office of more than $3 billion, which is really exciting. ”

Mu Chen smiled noncommittally.

"The box office of "Titanic" exceeded 3 billion US dollars, but aside from the filming and production costs, as well as publicity and distribution expenses, theater dividends, etc., I am afraid that the profit will be hundreds of millions of US dollars!" Chu Yuhua said with a smile.

The box office of $3 billion seems huge, but it is profitable.

Yuan Chengzhou may not know this, but he was not attracted by the $3 billion box office.

Movie money laundering is not uncommon.

Especially in the years when Xiangjiang movies were popular.

"A movie makes hundreds of millions of dollars, it's amazing!" Yuan Chengzhou said with a smile, "No wonder so many people let me learn from Mr. Mu!"

When Chu Yuhua heard this, he suddenly didn't know what to say.

A film earns hundreds of millions of dollars, so profitable, who doesn't want to be moved!

Did I just do me a disservice?
