In front of a movie theater in Kowloon, Hong Kong.

You can see from afar that there are many people queuing up to buy tickets, and Lin Weilun is bored and feels incredible when he sees such a scene.

"Is there another Hollywood blockbuster? How did I not know? Lin Weilun muttered.

"Dude, what are you doing, what are you waiting up to see?" Lin Weilun asked a young man.

"You don't know?" The young people were amazed.

"I don't know!"

"A horror film in the country, I heard that it is very bloody and very good-looking, and netizens in the mainland are crazy when they see it on the Internet, and it will be released in Hong Kong today, so I will come and see how good it is." Young people are humane.

Lin Weilun was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, when did mainland movies become so popular in Hong Kong, and there were so many people queuing up, dreaming.

Hong Kong has always been the pride of Chinese films, Chinese entertainment films, and even Asian films, but from 1997 to 2007, the decade of disappearance, Hong Kong films have been in decline.

Today, so many people are queuing up for a mainland movie, Lin Weilun feels incredible.

"What movie is so good? So many queues? Lin Weilun asked.

The young man glanced at him, and it was obvious that the person he was talking to didn't know anything. said: "Wang Meng, do you know? Does DreamWorks know? ”

Belch......

Lin Weilun was stunned, thought about it and said: "Is it the Wang Meng of "This and That Man from the Earth" last year, the one who raised his eyebrows at the Venice International Film Festival?" ”

"Haha...... You know, it's him. ”

Lin Weilun still knows Wang Meng, not to mention that Wang Meng has been in full swing in the Chinese entertainment industry recently, plus Wang Meng participates in everything, "Transformers" is popular all over the world, coupled with the popularity of the Internet Global Village, Hong Kong, as the same species, same word and the same cultural circle, naturally knows.

It's just that Wang Meng's reputation in Hong Kong and Taiwan is not very big, after all, the foundation is shallow, even if it is fast, it can't withstand the accumulation of time.

At this moment, Wang Meng belongs to the kind of people who buy in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, but they are not impressed, and they lack the existence of iron.

"He, I know, what's wrong with his movie coming out?" Lin Weilun asked.

"No, it's a movie he wrote, and his company, DreamWorks, produced it."

"Good-looking?" Lin Weilun asked cautiously.

"I haven't seen it yet. However, I heard mainland netizens say that it is a classic horror movie, which is better than Citigroup's, and it is still a horror movie. The young man said.

"It's better than Midi's, nonsense, right?" Lin Weilun didn't believe it.

As the pride of China Entertainment Films, Hong Kong people are confident in their own movies, and Hong Kong has been beaten by Hollywood movies over the years, not to mention the mainland.

"I didn't think so, but didn't you watch the interview between Chen Kexin and Tsui Hark? Both of them said that it was very good, a rare horror movie, no less than a Citigroup movie, I am a fan of Tsui Hark, so the idols have said it, I naturally want to watch it. The young man said.

In fact...... At the beginning of the period, the publicity of "Saw Horror" in Hong Kong and Taiwan was not very good.

It was Chen Kexin and Tsui Hark who said a few good words for "Saw Horror", which is why there is the current scene.

However, Hong Kong, a small land with an area of 1,100 square kilometers and a population of 7 million, has more than 100 cinemas!

And "Chainsaw" was released in only 12 theaters, accounting for only one-tenth of the proportion.

This is still Wang Meng's reputation recently, Tsui Hark Chen Kexin's good words, and the relationship left by DreamWorks' release of "You at the Same Table" some time ago.

Who knows, whether the horror movies in the mainland are nonsense, and they dare not guarantee that even if they are popular in the mainland, no one may watch them in Hong Kong and Taiwan?

It is precisely because there are few theaters that will be released that there will be queuing scenes, and if there are more theaters being released, there will be queues. Unless Wang Meng becomes Jackie Chan's status.

Lin Weilun talked with the young man for a while, and felt that it was okay, just take a look.

Stand in line, buy tickets, watch.

However......

When I saw the movie, I felt bad, not only Lin Weilun, but also many Hong Kong fans who walked into the cinema.

As mentioned earlier, the bloody scenes, the confusing inferences, the reversal at the end, the incessant screams, and the dazzling killing weapons, Tai Nima is terrifying.

The fans, who shouted a little hoarsely, walked out of the theater tremblingly, everyone's faces were a little pale, I thought it was very embarrassing, but it turned out to be the same, and I immediately smiled bitterly.

"Hi. What about Saw Horror? Is it good-looking? ”

The fans who were waiting to watch the next show asked after seeing the fans who watched it first.

As a result, they all smiled bitterly, but a few people said excitedly: "It's so good-looking, I tremble when I see it, is it really filmed in the mainland?" It's so beautiful. ”

A movie fan, seeing a beautiful woman who hasn't come back to his senses, asked with a smile: "Beauty, is "Chainsaw" good-looking?" I heard it's bloody? ”

As a result, the beauty was stunned, and she cried out with a "wow......".

The male fan instantly became bad and said loudly: "What didn't I do? I didn't do anything, I just asked if the movie was good. ”

The male fan thought that he scared the beautiful woman into tears, for fear that others would treat him as a bad person, so he hurriedly explained.

Outcome...... It's not what he thought.

The beauty ignored him and ran out of the cinema, leaving a burst of crying and laughing just after watching it.

At the same time, not only Hong Kong's cinemas are experiencing an incredible scene.

The same is true at the entrance of some movie theaters in Taiwan.

An inexplicable storm of terror is sweeping through.

Hong Kong, which was released in 12 theaters on the same day, cut a box office of 860,000.

It's not dozens of movie theaters, only a dozen, such a box office can't be said to be very good, but for horror films, it can be imagined.

This is especially true in Taiwan, where Taiwan's culture is more similar to the mainland, and such a terrorist storm is naturally inevitable.

Taiwan was released for one day and won a box office equivalent to more than 900,000 yuan.

Actually......

Speaking of which, such a box office is not so outrageous, and even for a Hong Kong and Taiwan movie, it belongs to hitting the street.

But this is a mainland movie, this is a mainland NC-level movie, the most important thing is that it is not about how good the box office is, but about word of mouth, this word of mouth is simply bursting.

It is this kind of word-of-mouth, coupled with the terrifying storm, that everyone expected.

At the headquarters of DreamWorks, Liu Zhiyuan, who received the notice, called Wang Meng.

"Director Wang, the situation is not as we thought, Hong Kong 860,000, Taiwan 920,000, Macau 150,000, in one day in general, we only got 2 million yuan."

After listening to Liu Zhiyuan's return, Wang Meng on the phone was relieved.

Obviously, the reputation and storm in the mainland made Liu Zhiyuan think that it would indeed be popular in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but after the results came out, it was not as he thought.

Wang Meng told him that he still expects "Chainsaw" to sweep through Europe and the United States? Seeing the box office of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan now, Liu Zhiyuan was a little disheartened.

"Don't worry, to be honest, I'm satisfied with this box office, it's only the first day, our fame in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan is almost dispensable, and there are not many people who know us, so it's useless for you to be anxious. I was satisfied with the box office of 1.5 million in the three places on the first day, and now it is more than 2 million, which seems to be better than I expected. Wait! Wait a few days. ”

Wang Meng comforted Liu Zhiyuan.

Wang Meng had long expected that when the early "Saw Horror" was released in Midi, it was not as good as now, and it didn't rely on word-of-mouth to earn more than 56 million US dollars in Midi, and a total of more than 100 million US dollars around the world.

In the previous life's "Chainsaw", since it can rely on word-of-mouth to build such a country, Wang Meng doesn't believe that this life will be bad.

In this life, whether it is the picture or props, as a whole, this version of "Chainsaw" is even better, and the BUY in the previous life has been made up, Wang Meng doesn't believe it, it's just a simple box office of more than 2 million.

The next week is the opportunity for a counteroffensive.

After Liu Zhiyuan heard this, he thought that Wang Meng was comforting him, and asked Wang Meng: "That! So are we going to announce the first-day box office of "Chainsaw" in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan? ”

Liu Zhiyuan has recently broken various NC-level records in the mainland, crushing all the way, but Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan are not good, and he is a little depressed.

"Announced, must be announced, so that everyone knows. Later, when we fight back, we have a certificate. Wang Mengdao.

"Okay, I'll announce it."

Wang Meng, who hung up the phone, is in Zhenbeibao, and has been paying attention to DreamWorks and "Chainsaw" in the magic capital.

The next day. When the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan of "Chainsaw" was announced on the official website, it caused a burst of discussion.

"DreamWorks' Chainsaw, a terrifying storm swept across the continent. However, it doesn't seem to be popular in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and it can be seen from the box office that Chainsaw Horror can only be said to have unsatisfactory results. It's not that it's bad, for many films, the box office of more than 2 million in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan on the first day has gone against the sky, but it is a failure for the popular domestic horror film "Chainsaw".

Wang Meng once said that he would land overseas, and eventually land in Europe and the United States, obviously I don't think so. Looking at the situation in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan alone, the situation is not good. Veteran movie fans know that Hong Kong is the bridgehead of Asian films, but any movie that causes a sensation in Hong Kong will inevitably arouse widespread optimism throughout Asia, and even European and American cinemas.

"Saw Horror" did not get good results in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and it was difficult to land in Europe and the United States, at most it was released in Japan and South Korea, and Southeast Asia was released on a small scale. All in all, DreamWorks and Wang Meng still have a long way to go. ”

――[Movie Weekly]

"DreamWorks' "Chainsaw" swept the mainland, but the box office in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan was not good on the first day, are we mainland fans too superficial? Or are fans of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan who don't know the goods? How is there such a stark contrast? - [Netizen]

"Brother Meng said that he was going to land in Europe and the United States? Why is the box office of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan so poor, I heard that the mainland has broken records in a row, and the box office has gone to 20 million, not to mention the terrorist frenzy it caused, I don't understand it? ? - [Netizen]

"Time will not bury a good movie, gold also needs to be experienced, as evidenced by the post, "Chainsaw" is by no means such an achievement, I believe that there will be a Jedi counterattack in the future, and I don't think it will come to war."

- [Netizen].

No matter what everyone says, the box office of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan on the first day is indeed incredible.

In the mainland, the box office of nearly 20 million a week, and the word-of-mouth and sensation are still intensifying.

However......

The next day, mainland fans were still arguing about the slump at the box office in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan on the first day of "Chainsaw".

The box office came on the second day in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, not only the box office, but the fans in the three places were shocked by such a ****.

The original popularity in the mainland has now begun to be replicated in the three places.
