Chapter 360: People of Color in Action

After reprinting the contents of Oguanhai's letter, the black film "godfather" said to all black people in a serious tone:

"Although it's not all, but comparing the plot in "Double Treasure Fighting Demons", we can clearly find it. In today's society, discrimination and prejudice against blacks and other people of color still abound.

Our former leader, Martin Luther King, Jr., had a dream to eliminate all discrimination and injustice in the Star Banner Nation society.

But today, decades later, the cause we have been fighting for for decades has still not been successfully realized.

We shouldn't just babble about the government and white people demanding so-called power.

We should be like the two Chinese farmers in "Double Treasure Fighting Demons", live more optimistically, be more friendly to those who have discriminated against us, and be more ashamed of those who still retain racial discrimination.

That's how a beautiful woman like Emma Roberts can discover your heart and your charm, and that's how we can win.

Even if it is just a performance, we can still see from Director Peng Yichen's performance his persistent pursuit of beauty and his dedication to love.

This is the quality and attitude that we black people, and indeed all people of color, really need.

What I didn't expect was that this precious quality was ultimately told to us by a Chinese director with a Chinese movie.

Therefore, I hope that all those who are dissatisfied with discrimination and prejudice will go to the theater and watch this film seriously.

It can tell you what is the key to breaking down prejudice and discrimination!!"

This extra-long film review and Ao Guanhai's letter shook the black community of the entire Star Flag Country as soon as it was released.

Then, the film review spread to all other communities of color at breakneck speed.

In just three days, this film review has been reprinted more than 1,100 times by various media in the Star Flag Country, creating a miracle in the history of Star Flag News.

Even more dramaticly, just five days after the release of this film review, there was a case of a white police officer shooting a black college student in Detroit.

Unlike all previous cases of this kind, the black college student who was shot by the police, after being shot in the arm by the police, did not attack the other party in the whole process, but endured the severe pain, and kept smiling like the policeman to express kindness.

In the end, the very determined racist white policeman, who was also ashamed of his actions, called an ambulance to the black college student.

Regardless of the risk of being fired and imprisoned, he publicly admitted that when he shot himself, he may have misjudged the danger of such a black college student.

You know, in many states of Star Banner Country, the power of the police is very large, if he bites to death what he thought was an extremely dangerous black college student at the time, then this matter can eventually be turned into a big and small matter.

But in the end, the police still chose to speak against him.

It can be seen how much impact the attitude of black college students towards him has.

In the end, the policeman was not punished too harshly, but was demoted to civilian service.

But the impact and impact of this incident on the Star Flag Country is unparalleled.

What no one imagined was that when the reporter interviewed the black college student, he asked him why he was able to maintain a smile and a friendly attitude after being shot and injured by the police for no reason.

The college student actually replied:

"Because I just watched a movie, "Double Treasure Fighting Demons", and it was a very unique movie. It taught me how to deal with discrimination and prejudice, and that is to use our optimism and kindness to break down those racist prejudices......"

A film review endorsed by Ao Guanhai and an unexpected event that shook the whole United States, the influence of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" in the Star Flag Country was completely exploded.

In the third week of its release, Peng Yichen felt that the time was ripe for a large-scale release, and immediately contacted several major theaters in Star Flag Country through Legendary Pictures to increase the screening scale of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" to 2,000 screens at one time.

This is the limit of the distribution that Legendary Pictures can arrange, after all, they are a company that has not been established for a long time, and if it is not backed by many Hollywood bigwigs, even such a distribution scale cannot be organized.

Fortunately, if after the large-scale release, the box office of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" can still be a big hit.

Those theater managers, who are more sensitive than vultures and jackals, will naturally take the initiative to come and ask for screenings.

Therefore, the next thing to see is whether "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" can maintain its identity as a box office dark horse.

A week after the large-scale release, the box office performance of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" once again shocked everyone.

The weekly box office reached a staggering 56 million, and the total box office reached a record-breaking $91 million.

It is more than $10 million higher than the highest box office of $80 million in the North American film market.

What's even more terrifying is that the film has only just been released on a large scale for the first week.

This made the publicity and distribution teams of Chen Jing Film and Legendary Pictures excited.

Denzel, the distribution manager of Legendary Pictures, never dreamed that a Chinese film could get a box office result of more than 100 million yuan in the Star Flag Country.

He has now begun to faintly regret it, if he hadn't promised Peng Yichen to pay for the publicity and distribution himself, wouldn't all the profits from the movie be able to be obtained by Legendary Pictures now?

Of course, he just thought about it this way, after all, at that time, he and Legendary Pictures did not have the courage of Peng Yichen, and dared to directly take out 10 million US dollars to promote a Chinese movie.

Therefore, since Peng Yichen has shared the huge risk, it is natural to share the benefits of this film now, which is the essence of the commercial society.

Risks are shared evenly and benefits are shared.

In order to develop the industry bigger and bigger!

By this week's box office results of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons", this movie has been enough to rank third in the North American weekly box office list.

And he is the only film in the top 10 with no more than 3,000 screens.

On May 8th, three weeks after the release of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons", the summer file of Star Flag Country finally arrived in full swing.

Invested by 21st Century Foucus and starring top Hollywood superstars Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz, "Dangerous Spy War" has just been released, and it won an astonishing first-day box office of $37.5 million on the same day.

But white movie fans in the Star Flag Country have observed a very strange phenomenon in theaters around the world, that is, in a certain movie screening hall, a large number of colored people are often crowded to watch movies.

Sometimes it's a whole show, and it's all black or all yellow people watching a movie together.

And all these people watched was the same movie - "Double Treasure Fighting Demons".

In the end, many white audiences also became interested in this low-budget movie and wanted to buy a ticket to go in and see it.

But to the surprise of these white viewers, they never get tickets for the same day, and even in some areas, they can't even buy tickets for the next day.

Tickets for this movie are often bought in the early hours of the same day by people of color who queue up to watch the movie.

At noon, the remaining part was bought by the Chinese from all over the All-Star Flag Country.

There are often only a handful of tickets for white viewers who come to watch the movie in the evening.
