Chapter 477 "Dolphin Bay" - A Hit in Japan

Three days later, George returned to Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company, and for this trip to Japan, George successfully completed the task, and "Dolphin Bay" began to be released in Japan!

Zhou Shaoming brought a glass of red wine to George, George picked up the red wine with great interest, couldn't help frowning, and asked, "Zhou, your injury is not already, okay?" ”

When Zhou Shaoming heard George's concern, he couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, and said to George: "I'm happy today, you can make an exception and drink less." ”

George drank the red wine lightly and said to Zhou Shaoming: "I have already done a business transfer in Japan at the same time, and the Japanese people are looking forward to watching this movie!" ”

Zhou Shaoming was stunned for a moment, and said to George: "It's still thoughtful that you proposed and completed this plan to be released in Japan!" ”

George smiled and said to Zhou Shaoming: "Of course, I fought my life for the company." ”

When Zhou Shaoming heard George's words, he couldn't help laughing, patted George's shoulder and said, "Is it so serious?" But what you do is seen by all the colleagues in the company. ”

When "Dolphin Bay" was not released in Japan, it was already rumored to be boiling. For Zhou Shaoming to come to Japan with this movie, it has attracted more attention than the movies Zhou Shaoming has made in the past!

"Director Smith Chow? Who is it? "For a film filming of the massacre of dolphins by Japanese fishermen, everyone seems to be more concerned, how can such a thing happen in Japan, but there is a trace of resistance to the filming director!

"Hmph, this movie shot by a self-proclaimed Hollywood gold medal director, I have to enjoy it well, don't be a movie that people can't watch at that time, a documentary, I really can't imagine why the media exaggerates the facts so much and reports it all day long."

"yes. Director Smith Zhou didn't return to the United States a while ago, and he couldn't stay in Japan at all, but "Dolphin Bay" only had a box office score of more than 10 million when it premiered in North America, which is a drop in the ocean compared to the box office results of "Shrek 2" of hundreds of millions. ”

"How can such a film be released in our Japan, it is simply an insult to our intelligence, and we must resolutely boycott this movie!"

With the anger of more netizens on the Internet, the movie "Dolphin Bay" seems to have been unanimously boycotted and scolded by netizens!

However, for well-known media in Japan. Or more facts about the evaluation of this movie.

Even the Yomiuri Shimbun, a conservative media outlet in Japan, commented: "After the arrival of the valuable film "Dolphin Bay" in Japan, the sane crowd wanted to see for themselves the boiling Smith Chow covert shooting incident a while ago, and more angry young people unanimously boycotted the film." In the face of such a realistic environment, how far will he go when he comes to Japan for release? No one knows! ”

Under the deliberate protection of the government, the fishermen's brutal killing of dolphins in the Taiji area can no longer be concealed, and the Japanese media no longer deliberately suppress this situation! Ignore this one.

"Director Smith Chow is here again, and it seems that the films he brought with him have attracted more attention from the Japanese than before. What will happen to the tornado "Dolphin Bay" film this time? We stay tuned! Whether a group of brave people will succeed in receiving follow-up attention in the Japanese film market, none of us knows? "Daily News

"Dolphin Bay" met "Shrek 2" unexpectedly on the 21st, obviously. For a documentary that is not a blockbuster in itself, this day's box office results have become the most memorable day in film history!

"Dolphin Bay" became the time of its release with a box office score of only 5 million. The worst day at the box office!

But "Shrek 2", with a premiere box office score of more than 100 million that no one expected, refreshed this year. Amazing debut box office results!

The box office result of 180 million has made the movie "Shrek 2" the new darling of this year's film market! No one can believe that there is a movie that can create hundreds of millions of box office results in one day, but "Shrek 2" has done it!

This is an unprecedented pressure on Zhou Shaoming's supernova entertainment film and television company, and Zhou Shaoming, who has been sitting in the company, can't help but sweat wildly in the office!

Although "Dolphin Bay" has been well received in terms of word-of-mouth after its release in North America, a valuable movie that makes people feel confident and brave after watching it, it has suffered a lot of impact from a commercial blockbuster.

For this shock. Zhou Shaoming had to face it, but two days later, the box office of "Dolphin Bay" began to recover a little in North America, and this newly released documentary, after withstanding the impact of the commercial blockbuster "Shrek 2", the box office performance began to rise slowly, and it basically ended with a box office score of close to tens of millions every day!

And George's return undoubtedly brought a lot of surprises to Zhou Shaoming and Supernova Entertainment, as the film began to be released in Japan, Supernova Entertainment Film and Television began to have some opportunities to take a breather.

On the day of the release in Japan, there was a long queue at the door of thousands of theaters, and for the release of the movie "Dolphin Bay", the Japanese people had various mentalities to enjoy this movie secretly shot in Japan!

This is not a good movie for Japan! However, in the media and on the Internet, more people have seen this film about the unknown things in Taiji Town, what is the truth of the matter? All hearts want to know the answer!

"Director Smith Chow? This name, which appeared in front of the Japanese public for the first time, became famous in one fell swoop! No director has ever become famous so quickly, and it has never been a moment to become famous in Japan overnight! So will his movies disappoint everyone!? Asahi Shimbun

For people in the media, they can already guess what will happen after the release of this movie!

When I saw the release at the door of the film, so many people chose this movie! As a news worker, he took a cold breath, for them who have been hiding this matter, when the public sees such a movie, they know that the name of Director Smith Zhou will not be forgotten!

"Two tickets to Dolphin Bay!" The man said, sucking a lollipop.

"Qiang, how did you come, didn't you say that you resolutely don't come to see this movie?" A familiar voice came!

Qiang said with a look of contempt: "I'm just following the crowd. If I watch it, the movie made by that bullshit director is not good, I will definitely scold him to death on the Internet! ”

In the theater broadcast hall, "Dolphin Bay" was released on time, and when the Japanese people saw the last moment, their mood cooled down! From the beginning to the end, the theater has never been so quiet.

No one made any sound, just dumbfounded at the real bloody scenes, and some of the elders couldn't help but shed tears and shouted bitterly at the camera on the screen: "What a sin! ”

The strong mouth couldn't help but open. The lollipop in his mouth fell to the ground, and he couldn't help but say, "How can there be such a thing!" Qiang, who couldn't accept it for a while, was stunned and sat in his seat in a daze, until the crowd in the theater left, and his friends left, and Qiang never came to his senses!

In the theater, a white-haired old man looked at the screen with his back hunched over, and familiar scenes came into view, and the white-haired old man's whole body began to tremble. He didn't expect that he would be so brave at that time, what brought him so much confidence and courage?

The white-haired old man's trembling hands couldn't help but wipe away the tears left on his face. For this day, how many years he has waited, after all, today, someone uses this way. Let more people know the truth about the brutal murder of dolphins in Dolphin Bay! This person is someone he will never forget in his life, that is Hollywood's top director Smith Chow!

The crowd in the theater walked out of the theater with a depressed mood. There was no expression on his face, only a sad, heart-wrenching look! However, when people walked up to the white-haired old man, they bowed deeply to the old man who participated in the filming of "Dolphin Bay" and expressed respectful eyes!

He is Kerry, who stayed in Japan, and was deeply shocked by Zhou Shaoming's "Dolphin Bay" released in Japan. The compact plot uses the thrilling adventures to deduce in a movie way!

Kerry couldn't help but take a deep breath in his heart, for himself risking his life all day long, constantly holding such a short video alone, and promoting it on the streets of Japan, Zhou Shaoming's use of movies is more intelligent and desirable!

On the day of the release of "Dolphin Bay" in Japan, the theaters were full, and the sudden arrival of this movie was no less than the popularity of "Shrek 2" in North America!

Media workers who have already seen this movie are more here to report on the attitude of the people after watching this movie!

"It's unbelievable that such a thing is happening in Japan!" When a young Japanese man was interviewed, he couldn't help but say without hesitation: "I think these fishermen and these government officials should reflect on how much damage this has caused to our reputation in Japan!" ”

A middle-aged man said lightly: "Seeing such a movie, I was stunned, how could this happen in our Japan?" It's incredible! ”

"Those people should stop these slaughters of dolphins, and stop throwing us Japanese!" An elderly man couldn't help but pace the ground with a cane in anger!

"This is a film with profound value, a film worth pondering! For this movie to be popular in our Japan, it is an irresistible trend, in the face of such a thing!? What should we do? "The public media news network issued such an exclamation! For the positive reports of the media, some people on the Internet began to target the movie "Dolphin Bay"!

Netizen Qiang wrote: "This is a pseudo-documentary. There are always two different views on one thing, so why do all the interviewees have the same attitude as these activists? You can see the guiding nature of this documentary from here. The world is open, things are open, conclusions are open, and the documentary is desperately leading. From here I see the nature of an activist. This documentary, I can hardly call it a "documentary". ”

Netizen Piao Yang also agreed: "A documentary that I didn't know was being filmed at all, and the director forcibly imposed his will into the film." We shouldn't let this kind of movie mislead our thinking! ”

For some people who are dissatisfied with this movie after the sudden popularity of this "Dolphin Bay" in Japan, they began to vent on the Internet.

However, for such a post, there are also reasonable viewers who put forward a different opinion!

Netizen passerby wrote: "When every excellent work appears, there is always a clown like LZ who comes out to sensationalize. Do you know what a documentary is? The soul of a documentary is objective documentary, and Smith Chow did just that. Montage is the usual technique of documentaries, and Smith Chow took this to the extreme. The twisting point of the documentary is the creation of suspense, and Smith Chow did just that. The Oscar judges are not so ignorant as to even know what a documentary is. ”

For Japanese viewers who have seen the movie "Dolphin Bay". Zhou Shaoming frowned and looked at the comments on the Internet, looking at everyone's comments, Zhou Shaoming could think that when Japanese people saw such a movie released in the Japanese film market, it was a normal scene to vent their emotions.

However, judging from the media, various news and posts from the audience, "Dolphin Bay", which was just released in Japan, seems to be a rage and has become a hot movie in the Japanese film market!

Compared to "Dolphin Bay" in North America, the popularity is amazing!

Zhou Shaoming couldn't help but take a puff on his cigar as he thought about it. For a while, "Dolphin Bay" became popular in Japan, and no one would have thought of it! So what will be the box office results on the first day of release in Japan?

Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath, and began to have a trace of expectation in his heart, curious, I don't know how many box office results his movie can create?

George came in, and Zhou Shaoming saw George and said, "Joe, I'm going to start filming another movie "League of Assassins", as for the negotiation with Blizzard. It's up to you, I'll concentrate on filming! ”

George listened to Zhou Shaoming's words, nodded and said, "Don't worry, don't believe me yet." ”

George's self-confidence is high. Zhou Shaoming was somewhat relieved, and before Zhou Shaoming could speak, George couldn't help but tell the box office results of the movie "Dolphin Bay" on the first day of its release in Japan!

"Week, 53 million box office results. This is a box office result that no one could have imagined! George's voice was a little hoarse.

Zhou Shaoming was dumbfounded and asked, "What is the box office result of 53 million?" George's words made Zhou Shaoming confused, and at this time, Supernova Entertainment Film and Television only had one movie "Dolphin Bay" released. How can there be any other movie released, what is the box office result of this 53 million movie?

George saw that Zhou Shaoming didn't seem to understand, and said to Zhou Shaoming: "The first box office results of "Dolphin Bay" released in Japan have just been counted. ”

Zhou Shaoming was dumbfounded, he didn't react for a long time, and asked George: "Are you feverish, how can a small Japanese film market have such box office results all of a sudden?" ”

Zhou Shaoming couldn't imagine it, but when he saw George's happy face, he said: "It's not the power of the Japanese media, for the incident you filmed in Japan last time, most of the people in Japan want to see the movie you filmed!" And. George couldn't help but smile wickedly as he spoke.

Zhou Shaoming frowned and asked, "And what's wrong?" ”

George said proudly: "When I saw the value of this film in the Japanese film market, I doubled the box office of this film in Japan!" ”

Zhou Shaoming narrowed his eyes, couldn't help but laugh suddenly, and said: "There is such a thing, I don't think the Japanese would have imagined that there would be such a thing." ”

George couldn't help but snicker, "Isn't that great?" They are using the movie footage they deduce to earn money in their pockets. George said and laughed!

At this time, Zhou Shaoming was made to cry and laugh, for this George, who was cut first and then played, Zhou Shaoming shook his head helplessly, and said: "50 million box office results, George, you really injected a strong agent into this "Dolphin Bay"!" I have received a lot of concerns from media friends, in the face of such a poor box office performance of our film in the North American market, mainly compared with the "Shrek 2" movie, it is really a world of difference, it seems that now we can at least take a slight foothold in the box office. ”

George said proudly: "Of course, you are the ace director of our company, how do you think I can let the movie shot by you, the director, be gray and untenable in the film market!?" ”

In the face of George's kindness, Zhou Shaoming is still a little uncomfortable in his heart, in addition to people who have not known the existence of the system, when their movies are released, they have to rely on the people around them to help them position the market for release, in order to do this, this time the movie was filmed, so that Zhou Shaoming felt that he was still a lot away from the top director!

The movies of the Lord of the Rings series have been the best in the Oscars for three consecutive years, and it seems that there is still a certain distance to become a director like this!

When George saw Zhou Shaoming's demeanor, he couldn't help but restrain his emotions, and said to Zhou Shaoming: "Zhou, I was too excited just now, did you misunderstand my words, I mean, your movie is so well shot, as an employee of the company, it is reasonable to open up the market and let more people see such an excellent movie."

When Zhou Shaoming heard George's words, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I don't blame you, I just think of the director of the Lord of the Rings, and I feel that there is a certain gap between me and him!" ”

Facing Zhou Shaoming's expression, George said to Zhou Shaoming: "Zhou, sooner or later, you will do it too!" ”

Zhou Shaoming nodded and said, "I also believe in my own strength. The two laughed at each other! (To be continued......)
