Chapter 660: Attitude towards the Weak
It is not for nothing that the propaganda of the American Dream has been able to penetrate deep into the American people.
Because of their mainstream values, in the attitude towards the weak, the first thing that comes to mind is not to help the weak, but to beautify the weak, to improve the weak, they prefer to encourage the weak, so that they do not feel sorry for themselves, self-defeating, let them always find their own "shining point", so as to enhance the courage and fighting spirit of life in the bitter laughter.
Some Chinese people may say that this is a cover for the US imperialism to cover up their indifference to the weak, and use this concept to tell the people that if you are weak, you should rely on yourself more than on others, and it is an excuse for them to stand by and watch what happens to the weak.
Perhaps there is indeed some such reason.
However, of course, material help is needed for the weak, but what is also needed is to cheer them up spiritually and provide them with the possibility of "being a farmer in the morning and ascending to the Tianzitang at dusk".
There has always been an old saying in Huaguo that a prince and a general would rather have a kind of thing, but in fact, although with the development of Huaguo's national strength, it has begun to develop in this direction gradually, but more often than not, when dealing with the weak, many people first think of giving material help rather than spiritual encouragement.
Without further ado, "Kung Fu Panda" finally ends with Po defeating the villain boss Aaron.
Pique was very excited, because looking at the reaction of the audience at the scene, you can know that "Kung Fu Panda" is definitely not as pessimistic as previously reported by the media, on the contrary, it is still a very good and very interesting film.
Especially look at those little kids, after the movie ends, they are still excitedly discussing Panda Bao, discussing turtle immortals, discussing Master Raccoon, discussing why Bao's father is a duck, and so on.
At the same time, in China, "Kung Fu Panda" also began to be released nationwide.
Unlike in North America, in China, "Kung Fu Panda" is naturally a Chinese movie in the eyes of most people.
Kung Fu and Panda, one is the quintessence of China, the other is a national treasure of China, the combination between the two is definitely a proper Chinese style.
Although "Kung Fu Panda" is said to be released simultaneously around the world, the time in China is more than ten hours earlier than in North America, so the box office of "Kung Fu Panda" on the first day in China has been preliminarily counted.
130 million!
This is not unexpected, this number, to say high, is really high, because this is an animated movie, and it is not high, it is really not high, because Lin Xiao's other movies before, the data is much higher than this.
"Kung Fu Panda" has a very good reputation in China, although many critics have criticized that this "Kung Fu Panda" is dressed in Chinese elements, but it is actually trying to please North American audiences.
As mentioned above, the heroes of China have always been relatively tall and comprehensive.
But this is not the case with "Kung Fu Panda", Panda Po can be said to be an extremely "heroic" character, which is simply a shame on the hero.
He is lazy, timid, cowardly, and such a person can become a hero?
As a result, some film critics used this as a breakthrough point to belittle the film.
It's also funny to say, many film critics in China often say how Hollywood is, why can't Chinese filmmakers learn more from others, but when some movies in China really come to learn from others, they will change their words and say, how can you flatter and please them?
Don't they see a lot of Chinese elements in Kung Fu Panda? Of course not, many times, it's just criticism for the sake of criticism.
The box office of 130 million on the first day, although it is not too high, but it is definitely not low, Lin Xiao is also quite satisfied with this, and after the box office on the first day was released, Ling Xiaoge and Sanle Animation are also relieved, at least, even if the North American box office is not good, "Kung Fu Panda" will not lose too much.
And the box office of the first day in North America is about to be released, even Lin Xiao is a little nervous and apprehensive at this moment.
Although Lin Xiao was very calm before, and he directly threw out tens of millions of publicity budgets without any hesitation, but at this time, he was inevitably a little uneasy.
After all, the world is different, the time is different, the environment is different, the same thing, at different times, in different worlds, different environments, whether it can still have that kind of performance, Lin Xiao can't guarantee.
"Lin, judging from the reports sent back by the investigators we have sent so far, the box office of "Kung Fu Panda" will not be too low on the first day! You don't need to worry too much. Rand said to Lin Xiao with a smile.
In fact, at this moment, Rand was also somewhat affected by Lin Xiao and others.
RAND also attaches great importance to "Kung Fu Panda", no other, because the project of "Kung Fu Panda" this time, and the choice of Lingxiao Pavilion as a strategic partner in China, was Rand's idea.
Although "Kung Fu Panda" has minimized the risk of Dick Group in this project because Lin Xiao paid for the publicity expenses himself, of course he also hopes that "Kung Fu Panda" can create miracles.
Although this possibility is not too high in his opinion, although he has watched "Kung Fu Panda" and thinks it is very good, but after all, preconceived notions make him not too optimistic about Huaguo's animated films.
"So far, we have surveyed more than 100 theaters to report that the attendance rate of the prime market has exceeded 70%, although this data is not comprehensive, but it is enough to show that the box office on the first day does not need to worry too much. Rand continued.
Just then, Rand's cell phone rang.
"What? Are you sure? OK! I know!" Rand hung up the phone with a surprised expression, and then looked at Lin Xiao with a look of amazement.
"The box office statistics on the first day are out?" Lin Xiao asked.
"Good news, bad news, which do you want to hear first?" Rand said with a smile.
"Let's hear the good news first. Lin Xiao glanced at Rand speechlessly, the dead foreigner was still selling Guan Zi at this time.
"The preliminary statistics of the box office on the first day came out, 16 million US dollars, the average attendance rate was as high as 67%, and the attendance rate of the gold field was as high as 85%. Lin, congratulations, you've done a miracle! At the same time, it has also set a record, the daily box office record of a Chinese film in North America. ”
"And what about the bad news?" Lin Xiao asked.
"The bad news is that DSN's "Dollland Country" grossed 22 million on the first day!
"So, will Dick Group be able to win more screens for Kung Fu Panda?" Lin Xiao asked.
16 million on the first day, although it is already an extremely eye-catching number for Huaguo's movies released in North America, but Lin Xiao does not have much sense of surprise, he is more concerned about whether he can get more screenings in the future.
