After the postponement of the release, "Never Compromise" had almost no strong opponents in the same period, and the big enemy of "Infernal Affairs", "The Legend of the Gods", and "Castle in the Sky", when it was released, it had been released for more than 20 days, and the potential of the box office had been exhausted, and the threat to it was not great.

Although the schedule at the end of October and November is not very popular, it may also receive a good box office.

"A Chinese Ghost Story" was originally released in the unpopular November file, but with its excellent film quality and crushing box office advantage for the films released at the same time, it finally created a miracle of more than 5 billion at the box office.

The producers of "Uncompromising" also had this idea.

On the day of their release on Saturday, October 21, they won 210 million at the box office and won the single-day box office champion, crushing opponents such as "Infernal Affairs", "The Legend of the Gods", and "Castle in the Sky", which have been in theaters for more than 20 days.

The next day, the single-day box office of "Never Compromise" exceeded 200 million again, reaching 230 million.

According to this trend, if no other accidents happen, the total box office of "Never Compromise" will be at least 3 billion.

However, the accident happened at eight o'clock in the evening on October 22, the day after the release of "Never Compromise".

The nomination party of the 32nd Yangcheng International Film Festival (Golden Sheep Award) started at 8 pm on October 22, and "Infernal Affairs" won a total of 11 nominations in the "Best Film", "Best Director", "Best Actor", "Best Supporting Actor", "Best Original Screenplay", "Best Editing", "Best Cinematography", "Best Visual Effects", "Best Costume Plastic Art" and other awards, becoming the biggest winner of the nomination party.

Before the nomination party was held, everyone was generally optimistic about the market of "Infernal Affairs" at this Golden Goat Awards, but when the organizing committee of the Golden Goat Awards really gave "Infernal Affairs" such a generous treatment and gave it so many nominations, it still made many people feel incredible.

In the later technical awards, the nominations of "Infernal Affairs", needless to say, "Infernal Affairs" has indeed done its best in those aspects, due to the joining of Wang Bangmin, Wu Hai, Guo Ziping and other actor-level actors, it is much more convenient for "Zhenghao Studio" to select staff for the crew.

The budget of "Infernal Affairs" is sufficient, and Zhao Zhenghao told Wang Yulan at the beginning that he wanted to allocate the best crew for it, so the photographers, art directors, and stylists invited by Wang Yulan for it are all the top in the industry.

This is not the first time they have been nominated for the Dragon Kingdom Three Film Awards, and some have even won more than one corresponding award at the Dragon Kingdom Three Film Awards.

This nomination is just the icing on the cake for them.

The first five important awards are what everyone pays the most attention to, and they are also the most discussed by fans after each nomination party.

Among these five awards, except for "Best Supporting Actor", which has nothing to do with Zhao Zhenghao, the other four are directly related to Zhao Zhenghao!

The weight of "Best Picture" is the heaviest, it represents the overall quality of the film, and being nominated for it means that "Infernal Affairs" is one of the five best quality films released in Dragon Country in the past cycle year!

In Hollywood, the "Best Picture" is generally recognized by the producer, because Hollywood realizes the producer responsibility system, and the producer has the heaviest voice in a film, but in the Dragon Country, the director is responsible for the system, and the director has the heaviest voice in a film - of course, most of the time, the director also has to listen to the investor.

Zhao Zhenghao is both a director and an investor in "Infernal Affairs", he is the biggest in the whole movie, and he also contributes the most in the whole movie, although Wang Yulan also contributed a lot in the preparation stage, but it is all some miscellaneous little things, Zhao Zhenghao's work is the only irreplaceable in the crew of "Infernal Affairs".

Therefore, "Infernal Affairs" was nominated for the Golden Sheep Award "Best Film", and if it can win the award, eighty percent of the people who came to the stage to accept the award were Zhao Zhenghao.

"Best Director", "Best Actor" and "Best Original Screenplay" don't need to be said, the name nominated is directly Cho Jung-ho.

After "A Chinese Ghost Story" and "Journey to the West" were cold one after another, Zhao Zhenghao finally won the professional recognition of the Dragon Kingdom film industry in an all-round way with this "Infernal Affairs"!

In particular, "Infernal Affairs" won two nominations in the two awards of "Best Actor" and "Best Supporting Actor" at this Golden Goat Awards, demonstrating its strength in performance.

Zhao Zhenghao and Guo Ziping were both shortlisted for "Best Actor", and Wang Bangmin and Wu Hai were both shortlisted for "Best Supporting Actor".

Needless to say, Wang Bangmin and Wu Hai's "Best Supporting Actor" nominations, they even won the actors, and the "Best Supporting Actor" trophy at the three major film awards ceremonies in the Dragon Kingdom has won more than one.

Guo Ziping was nominated for "Best Actor", which is not surprising, his acting skills have already been recognized by the industry, and he was nominated for the Golden Goat Award last year - he also created a record of being nominated for the Golden Goat Award for two consecutive years.

Zhao Zhenghao was nominated for "Best Actor", which is not surprising, his performance in "Infernal Affairs" is obvious to all, in the head-to-head confrontation with Wang Bangmin, Wu Hai, Guo Ziping, the powerful actors, not only did not fall behind, but also faintly improved, and completely played the role of Chen Yongren.

If it is impossible to be nominated for the "Best Actor" of the Golden Sheep Award with such a performance, then the selection of the Golden Sheep Award must be shady.

But he was nominated for "Best Actor" at the same time as "Best Director" and "Best Original Screenplay", which has to be a little jaw-dropping.

Zhao Zhenghao is the first person to achieve this achievement in the 32 years since the establishment of the Golden Goat Award!

At the same time, he also broke the record for the minimum age for nomination for "Best Director" at the Golden Sheep Awards.

More than three years ago, when Zhao Zhenghao said the phrase "I want to make a movie", no one believed that he could succeed.

In the past three years, Zhao Zhenghao has made three movies, each of which is a masterpiece with a box office of more than 5 billion, and in the third year of entering the industry, he has won the affirmation of the three major film awards ceremonies of the Dragon Kingdom.

In the face of this fact, everyone can only say an indescribable "rely on".

Stimulated by this good news, "Infernal Affairs", which has entered the fifth week of release, broke out with another wave of movie-watching climaxes when its potential was on the verge of exhaustion.

On October 23, when the box office on Sunday the previous day was only 130 million, the single-day box office rebounded against the trend, breaking the 200 million mark again, reaching 210 million, beating the just-released "Never Compromise" and winning the single-day box office championship again.

In the next four days, the single-day box office of "Infernal Affairs", although it did not exceed 200 million, remained at about 150 million, and in the two days of the weekend, it broke through the 200 million mark one after another, getting 210 million and 200 million box office, and in the fifth week of release, the single-week box office still accumulated 1.2 billion, creating a beautiful curve against the trend on the box office chart.

In the five weeks after its release, the cumulative box office of "Infernal Affairs" in the Dragon Kingdom reached 7.7 billion, and the box office record in the history of Dragon Kingdom, which originally seemed unattainable, has become no longer far away.

It has been verified that winning the three major film awards ceremonies of the Dragon Kingdom has a certain effect on the box office of the film, but it is the first time that the nomination of the three major film awards ceremonies of the Dragon Kingdom can also boost the box office trend in this way.

This is mainly because the film genre of "Infernal Affairs" is different from other films that have been nominated for the three major film awards ceremonies in the Dragon Kingdom, although it is not inferior to those literary films in terms of ideology, but "Infernal Affairs" is still a commercial film in essence.

"Infernal Affairs" is different from ordinary popcorn movies, because of its unconventional plot and the wonderful performances of the actors, so that fans can watch it twice or three times, and every time they watch it again, they can find new highlights and get new insights.

Among them, the most talked about by fans is Zhao Zhenghao's performance in this film, which is very contrasting and completely different from the image left in the past.

After Zhao Zhenghao crossed over to the film industry, fans gained an additional branch on the original basis - character fans.

When "A Chinese Ghost Story" was released, Zhao Zhenghao's cute and innocent Ning Caichen attracted a group of fans, calling Zhao Zhenghao "Little Ningzi", and he was a nymphomaniac at Ning Caichen every day.

When "Journey to the West" was released, Zhao Zhenghao's nonsensical and funny Supreme Treasure attracted a group of loyal fans, calling Zhao Zhenghao a "baby".

After the release of "Infernal Affairs", Zhao Zhenghao's role of Chen Yongren, who is both righteous and evil, not only attracted a group of loyal fans, but even the original "Xiao Ningzi" fans and "baby" fans also rebelled and became infatuated with Chen Yongren, no longer calling Zhao Zhenghao "Brother Hao", but calling him "Ah Ren".

The most attractive thing about Ah Ren is that in addition to his cynical, evil, and bad temperament, as well as his modern image, it is easier for fans to get a sense of substitution.

Ning Caichen and Supreme Treasure are both dressed in ancient costumes, and they are far inferior to Chen Yongren in terms of substitution.

This part of the fans, of course, is mostly female, although Zhao Zhenghao has publicly married and had daughters, but it can't stop their fantasies and YY.

This part of the fans is the most loyal to Zhao Zhenghao, Zhao Zhenghao said a word, even if they are allowed to die, many people will not hesitate.

Therefore, after the nomination party of the Golden Sheep Awards, Penguin Pictures borrowed Zhao Zhenghao's name and launched another wave of publicity, saying that Zhao Zhenghao would strive for the title of "10 billion actor".

This "10 billion actor" is not quite the same as the "10 billion actor" in the general sense.

Other "tens of billions of actors" refer to an actor's cumulative box office of more than 10 billion, which is not difficult to achieve in the current extremely prosperous market environment of Dragon Kingdom films.

Like Guo Ziping, before winning his first Golden Goblet Award Best Actor Trophy, his personal cumulative movie box office has exceeded 10 billion, and after the "Golden Goblet Actor" was crowned, he was immediately crowned with the title of "10 Billion Actor" in the publicity release.

Even predecessors like Wang Bangmin and Wu Hai, as they have begun to get involved in commercial films in recent years, their cumulative movie box office has exceeded 10 billion, and they can be called "10 billion actors".

Zhao Zhenghao's personal cumulative box office has already exceeded 10 billion, a "A Chinese Ghost Story" and a "Journey to the West", adding up to 13 billion, plus "Infernal Affairs", which has a box office of more than 7 billion, has 20 billion.

The "10 billion actor" plan proposed by Penguin Pictures refers to the achievement of this achievement by relying on the film "Infernal Affairs" alone!

The single-film box office record in the history of Dragon Kingdom films is currently 8.3 billion, and "Infernal Affairs" is now very hopeful of surpassing it, but it is impossible to raise this record to the level of 10 billion all at once.

The "10 billion actor" plan proposed by Penguin Pictures delineates the box office category for "Infernal Affairs", which does not refer only to the territory of the Dragon Kingdom, but to the global box office.

Zhao Zhenghao took advantage of the international reputation he cultivated in the field of music, and the movies he wrote, directed and acted in performed well at the overseas box office, with the overseas box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" reaching nearly 3 billion, and the overseas box office of "Journey to the West" also exceeding 3 billion.

In Japan, the box office was as high as 8.5 billion yen, which is converted into dragon coins, and nearly 500 million in South Korea, and nearly 250 million in South Korea.

In other Southeast Asian countries, the cumulative box office of "Infernal Affairs" is also nearly 300 million.

In European countries, "Infernal Affairs" has also been well received, with outstanding box office performance, and the cumulative box office has reached 100 million euros.

In North America, "Infernal Affairs" is also very popular, with a cumulative box office of more than $100 million.

Up to now, the overseas box office of "Infernal Affairs" has reported a total of nearly 3 billion dragon coins!

Coupled with the domestic box office of the Dragon Kingdom, the actual global box office of "Infernal Affairs" has exceeded 10 billion.

However, in order to stimulate fans' enthusiasm for watching the movie, Penguin Pictures did not disclose the news, but used it as a name to call on fans to watch "Infernal Affairs" a second or third time, and it is best to watch it four or five times.

Five weeks after its release, the overseas release of "Infernal Affairs" ended one after another, but in the territory of the Dragon Kingdom, there is still a month of schedule, at present, its cumulative box office in the Dragon Kingdom has exceeded 7.7 billion, which is only more than 600 million short of breaking the single-film box office record in the history of the Dragon Kingdom, and the goal is within reach.
