Chapter 276: The global box office breaks 500 million

{"Saw is a very bloody and brutal movie."} Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's inevitably disgusting for some people, and if a horror movie makes people feel that way, it means it's halfway there.

A morbid and crazy murderer, all kinds of grotesque and terrifying ways of killing, and a meaningful central theme have made this film.

What's even more incredible is that it seems that this film is set for North American fans, and the core of this film can be seen that it is a movie with a European and American core, and the screenwriter and director are precisely Chinese?

This makes me curious?

After investigation, I found that the director of this film is nothing special, he is an ordinary new Chinese director, and the screenwriter of this film - Wang is the screenwriter of this film.

Speaking of Wang, you may not be familiar with it. But when it comes to "Transformers" and "This Man is from Earth", everyone should understand. These two works are also written by Wang.

It's curious that a cutting-edge Chinese director understands our minds like this, and even more understands him, and wrote a script to shoot a movie, "Chainsaw" is a great horror film, and Wang made "Chainsaw". ”}

Saw momentum is as good as ever, with $860,000 on the first day, $1.72 million on the second day, $267 on the third day, and $3.42 million on the fourth day in North America.

Yet all this did not stop, on the fifth day 281, on the sixth day 293, on the seventh day 260.

In North America for a week, "Saw Horror" won $15.26 million at the box office. Based on the results of the week, coupled with the fact that there has been no **** release recently, "Chainsaw" ranked second in the weekly box office list in North America.

The first is "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" with 17.56 million, the second is "Saw Horror" with 15.26 million, and the third is "Life and Death Sniper" with 10.56 million.

With such results, such a number of films, and the roaring word-of-mouth and discussions, "Chainsaw" completely broke out in North America.

And the second week has increased the number of films, according to professionals, it is expected that the box office in the second week may be higher than the first week.

There are not many movies that have a higher box office in the second week than the first week, and they all achieve extraordinary results in the end, just like the "Titanic" with a big reversal.

For various reasons, "Chainsaw" has become popular, not only as a topic, but even the director of this film, Liu Zhiyuan, has become popular, and several of the Hollywood actors are rising in value due to the home field.

How could these people have thought that they would be a trick when they were in Hollywood, but they didn't expect to go to China and make a movie that became popular.

But the gang suddenly discovered a very tricky thing, because the contract signed was five, and the chip growth of each part could not exceed 20%. This is Wang Meng's acquisition.

In other words, even if a sequel is made, the salary will only rise by 20% at most, which makes a group of people speechless.

And they are still dispensable roles, the main starring role is Chinese, so even if it is useless, it's a big deal that people don't need you, and then look for it from the dragon set.

Very speechless!

And director Liu Zhiyuan is somewhat famous in North America.

In China, from becoming a perverted director at the beginning, to a director who later won glory for the country, but now he has not been abused a lot in North America?

Because they are all scolding the screenwriter, many film critics want to die and say that the biggest hero and behind-the-scenes controller of this film is Wang Meng.

This has led to the fact that in addition to King Kong fans before Wang Meng, there are also some more horror fans. The rest are unaccustomed to saying that Wang Meng is perverted.

All in all, whether it is scolding or appreciating, Wang Meng has a small reputation in North America, and the accumulation of several parties has made it famous today.

Whereas......

One of the Scarlett Johansson reports is even more puzzling.

"Yes, "Chainsaw" is very good, Wang is a genius screenwriter and a genius director. "Scarlett.

"Lady Scarlett, do you know Wang?" remembered.

"Of course, we met in Venice last year, before Anne met Wang, and it was only when I went to talk to Wang that Anne met Wang. "Scarlett.

"Then what do you think of Wang? is the relationship with Lady Anne?"

"Oh, it's impossible, they don't fit, I know Wang, before Anne. "Scarlett.

The reporter was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you also like Wang?"

"Yes, so handsome, so talented, why don't you like it?"

"What kind of ...... am I talking about?" the reporter.

"Oh, Mr. Reporter, you think too much, who knows?" said Scarlett ambiguously.

……

After such an interview came out, he directly took Wang Meng to soar, and it was obvious that Scarlett's playful answer was more than all of Wang Meng's accumulated fame.

What everyone didn't expect was that the next day, Anne Hathaway also spoke on Weibo-

"Wang, it has always been my pride, "Chainsaw" is very good, even though it is an NC-rated horror movie, I like it very much, I recommend everyone to watch it. Finally, I want to say, Scarlett, you just said hello before me. ”

- [Anne Hathaway]

The two big beauties seem to be fighting in the air.

Hollywood suddenly felt bad.

A lot of people thought it this way—if I'm not stupid, if I understand it correctly, it's that both Anne and Scarlett seem to like Wang very much.

Think about it, how to get it!

Hurry up and see what the so-called 'king' is like?

As a result, many websites have collected photos and achievements of Wang Meng.

Well, I'm a little convinced, very handsome, handsome knows no borders, very talented, has become a hot figure in China, very rich and seems to have assets of nearly 100 million dollars. The most unforgivable thing is that he is still very young.

Nima!Where did the youkai come from!?

In this way, a behind-the-scenes screenwriter became popular, more popular than the director and actors.

Not only that, there is an easter egg at the end of "Saw Horror", which is Wang Meng's new film "Painted Skin", and everyone who sees it is looking forward to it.

As I said before, North American fans don't know about "Painted Skin", and they rarely know about China's god and monster system. But, it's a novelty to see a fox turn into a beauty, isn't it?

This is also the reason why Wang Meng is so popular now.

The same is true in Europe.

As long as the United States is hot, they will be interested in the younger brothers.

Together with Scarlett Johansen, Anne Hathaway is a big beauty and a big star all over the world.

Europe, which is almost the same culture as North America, naturally likes it, which leads to the same "Chainsaw" in Europe.

In terms of box office, North America only had $15.26 million, while Europe went straight to $20 million.

European fan media are also digging Wang Meng's grave.

Italy, in particular, is the most active.

Mark Muller, the former president of the Venice International Film Festival, was also interviewed.

"Wang is a very good director, screenwriter, producer, I have always admired him, he has created a lot of new categories for new genres of Chinese cinema, he is a genius, yes, a genius," Mark said. ”

In Europe, Wang Meng's fame is the least famous place in France, the French are romantic by nature and don't like heavy tastes, if the dew point ****** tablets maybe the French like it, this kind of plasma tablets, the French are not good at this mouthful.

The weekly box office in Europe and the United States reached 35.26 million US dollars, equivalent to 267.80 million yuan.

Such a result frightened many domestic fans, look at this is making money, nearly 300 million a week.

Not only that, in the mainland in the fifth week of its release, "Chainsaw" won 3.21 million, and the total box office reached 48.14 million. It is expected to be released for up to two weeks, and it is easy to surpass the total box office of 50 million.

Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan won nearly 4,000 in the first three weeks, and the decline was very serious in the fourth week, and they only got less than 6 million, and the total box office in four weeks reached 46 million.

It is expected that Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan will be released for a week at most, and it will reach 50 million at that time. Reach Wang Meng's expected box office for the three places.

After all, these areas are not the base camp of the mainland, as long as the box office decline is serious and does not reach the bottom limit of the theater side, it will be drawn.

The films that can be released for half a year at most in the mainland have 7 weeks and more than 50 days of release days. And these three places are not good, "Chainsaw" can be released for five weeks, and Wang Meng is very satisfied.

The situation in Japan is very good, with a box office of 40 million yuan in the first two weeks, and a box office of 24 million in the third week, with almost no decline in results, which can be called a miracle.

Later, Wang Meng learned that it turned out that the release in North America was known to the Japanese, and when they saw that their godfathers liked it, the Japanese didn't care about it at the beginning, so they all walked into the theater.

After the results came out, they all said yes. After all, where did the godfather say it, you dare to say it badly godson.

In this way, in three weeks, "Chainsaw" hit a box office of 64 million yuan in Japan, which is much more than in China.

South Korea is different, it got a box office of 15 million in the first two weeks, and it fell seriously in the third week, only getting less than 300, and the total box office reached more than 18 million, and it is expected that there will be another week of release.

Originally, Wang Meng was expected to reach 25 million, but "Chainsaw" was only released in South Korea for four weeks and got a total box office of 20 million yuan.

The biggest reason is that South Korea is more similar to China, and it doesn't like such bloody films, and if it weren't for "Chainsaw" making such a big name all over the world, the box office would be even less.

Another reason is that several Korean-produced movies have been released, and Koreans who have an extremely perverted personality to protect their calves naturally go to watch their own movies.

Not to mention DreamWorks' "Chainsaw", and even Kashen's "Titanic" was pulled off the total box office list by the stick with such a calf protection mentality.

The situation in Southeast Asia is similar to that of South Korea, with a total box office of 5,000 yuan in the first two weeks, and only more than 16 million yuan in the third week. It won a box office of 66 million yuan in three weeks, and it is expected to be released for two weeks or even a week at most.

Wang Meng predicts that the maximum box office in Southeast Asia will reach 80 million, and the minimum will reach 73 million. Completed the expectations.

In this way, based on all the box office, "Chainsaw" has won a total box office of 510 million yuan.

Compared with the previous life's "Chainsaw", this time the production is more sophisticated and the publicity is greater, which should exceed the total box office of the previous life.

In the previous life, "Saw Horror" won a total box office of nearly 900 million yuan worldwide.

is still due to the fact that there was no domestic classification in the previous life, and it was not allowed to be released, and there was no publicity at all in Asia, it all depended on strength.

This time, DreamWorks' promotion of Asia is somewhat useful, and with Wang Meng's reputation, how can it win an extra 100 million to 200 million yuan?

So...... Wang Meng's requirement for "Chainsaw" is to at least keep the box office of the previous life, be better, and further surpass the previous life.

Now 500 million is far away, and it is expected that North America and Europe will be released for four weeks, how can it win 60 million US dollars in four weeks?, Asia is adding points, 1 billion can be expected, and the most 900 million yuan.
