Chapter 354: Europe and the United States Shake

Zhang Yimou wrote a reply letter after reading Zhang Shaojie's several letters. In the letter, in addition to telling some of the current situation of his development in the domestic film industry, he talked more about his newborn daughter Zhang Mo.

In the several baby photos sent with the letter, you can see that the little beauty embryo at the end of the year is pink and cute.

"It's so cute!" Anita Mui's daughters, seeing the little baby in the photo, all showed their feelings of liking.

Zhang Shaojie said with a smile: "If I have the opportunity to go to Shaanxi in the future, I will definitely go to hug my lovely niece." ”

"Cut, it's better to ask for others than for yourself, if you really want a cute baby, just give birth to one yourself." Lin Qingxia said.

Teresa Teng and Anita Mui suddenly joked: "It seems that you want a baby."

"Who said that?" Lin Qingxia argued.

"I don't need to explain, I understand!" Deng and Mei unanimously squeezed Lin.

Only Zhang Shaojie was full of apprehension in his heart, but his face was calm. Although he doesn't want to be a father at the age of 20, he doesn't mind if his girlfriends really want to have children.

However, after this turmoil, the women did not really propose to have a baby.

After all, Anita Mui was still young at this time and was not prepared for this. And Lin Deng's two daughters, at this time, are also career-oriented, if they are really pregnant and have children, most of them will fade out of the entertainment industry in the future. At this time, they are the people of the hour, and they are not ready to return to the bland

Since this is the case, Zhang Shaojie is also relieved.

Zhang Shaojie was not in a hurry, but Shaohuai occasionally mentioned: "Brother, you have three girlfriends, when will I be able to hold my nephew and niece?" ”

"Boy, owe it!" Zhang Shaojie couldn't help but look for a chicken feather blanket and threatened.

"Forget it, forget it! If you don't want to be my younger brother, I'll set an example first. After I get married and have children. Brother, you must consider letting me hug my nephew and niece as soon as possible," Shaohuai looked quite lively.

"Talked about girlfriend at school?" Zhang Shaojie suddenly asked.

"Well, a senior sister who is two years older than me." Shaohuai said shyly.

"I can't see it, you like Sister Yu!" Zhang Shaojie said with a smile.

"Brother, this is an example you made, okay." Shaohuai said confidently.

Zhang Shaojie was stunned, he currently has four girlfriends, except for Anita Mui, who is the same age as him. Teresa Teng, Lin Qingxia, and Madonna are all older than him, and Zhang Shaojie is the most naked royal sister.

However, a girl is as good as a girl, and the royal sister also has the wonder of the royal sister. Sometimes, a woman's surname needs to be a few years old before she can fully show her best side.

———————————— February 1984, the total box office of the film "A Chinese Ghost Story" in Asia was finally locked at a new high of 135 million US dollars, bringing Baolong Film Company a box office dividend of more than 50 million US dollars, equivalent to more than 400 million Hong Kong dollars. If this dividend arrives, it will not only allow Baolong to repay the bank's debts, but also greatly stimulate the development of Baolong's various businesses.

Of course, the most important thing for Baolong Company now is not the growth of fixed assets, but also the development of film production. It is the development of word-of-mouth and brand.

Only by laying a good reputation can the company have long-term prospects.

At present, the reputation of Baolong Film Company is still relatively good. For example, Baolong's latest production of "A Chinese Ghost Story" not only set new box office records in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, South Korea, Yuben, Malaysia and other countries.

Moreover, European and American publishers have also taken the initiative to advertise "A Chinese Ghost Story" to a certain extent when they see the achievements of "A Chinese Ghost Story" in Asia.

When the poster of "A Chinese Ghost Story" began to appear in many entertainment magazines in Europe and the United States, the exquisite and refined Chinese classical style immediately amazed the Western world.

"It's so beautiful!" Michael, the editor-in-chief reader of the American magazine "Premiere", saw this cover and couldn't help but fall in love with Wang Zuxian's outfit.

The editor-in-chief of the film edition of the British magazine "Empire" also praised: "Baolong Film Company is a film company that is good at excavating Chinese classical culture, and watching this company's movies is almost a kind of classical art enjoyment." ”

"Entertainment Weekly" interviewed Madonna, who was red and purple at this time, but she rarely talked about her new record, but told with great interest: "The movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" is so wonderful, as an internal test audience of the English version of this movie, I can't believe that the movie can be made so beautiful." Compared with Baolong Film Company, many Hollywood movie giants are simply weak."

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Spielberg said: "Zhang Shaojie is an extremely good writer and screenwriter, and after meeting him at the Hollywood Oscars in April last year, we quickly started our first cooperation. He wrote the script, I served as the director, and used the most advanced technology to bring the dinosaurs to life in the movie, "Jurassic Park" started filming in May last year, and it is expected to meet the audience in the first half of this year. Prior to this, Zhang's other film work "A Chinese Ghost Story" has become popular in Asia, and it is estimated that it will be released in the United States recently. If you want to appreciate Zhang's film screenwriting art, "A Chinese Ghost Story" is obviously not to be missed"

has been praised by many celebrities in the European and American entertainment circles, so that the reputation of "A Chinese Ghost Story" has begun to soar.

As the distributor of the film in the United States, Universal Pictures has collected a lot of market feedback. Finally, on February 15, more than 500 movie theaters premiered simultaneously. On the same day, it achieved a $1.78 million debut box office in the United States, with an attendance rate of 96%!

In the days since, the box office has surged to more than $8 million as Universal Pictures has increased the number of movie theaters in the United States to more than 2,500.

In the first week of its release in the United States, it swept the box office of $27 million, which has already caused a huge shock in the United States.

An article in the New York Times was headlined – "Raptors from Hong Kong!" The article exaggerated, describing Hollywood as a dying old man who does not want to make progress, and portraying Baolong as a cutting-edge film giant that grasps the trend of the times.

The article wrote: "Baolong Film is the first computer special effects operation and film, and it is also the first company in the world to set up a computer special effects department for reading power to develop the latest computer CG technology. Until a few years ago, the company's main source of technology came from ILM. However, the current R&D level of Industrial Light & Magic in the field of computer CG special effects is far inferior to Baolong. In terms of the number of patents, Baolong has 537 computer CG special effects so far, while Industrial Light & Magic only has 315."

The San Francisco Chronicle mentioned: "After 'A Chinese Ghost Story' swept through dozens of countries in Asia, it once again pointed its troops at Europe and the United States. In the first week of its landing in the United States, it grossed 27 million, setting a record for the highest box office of an Asian film in its first week of release in the United States. ”

Next, the major media rushed to report "A Chinese Ghost Story" like lit firecrackers, making this movie have enough exposure without spending a lot of money.

Not only Baolong Company is happy, but Universal Company also feels happy in his heart.
