According to the time zone, the release time in North America is 8 hours later than that of China, so the reviews in North America are also more than 8 hours late.

Compared with the comments of Chinese fans and film critics, the reviews in North America are a little more professional, and it is easy to affect the film reviews in other regions, so Wang Shang's main focus is on North America.

At 3 a.m. local time in North America, film critics who watched the midnight premiere posted comments on "Transformers 2" on their Weibo, blog, and website.

Sweet, a contracted film critic for The Chicago Journal, commented on his Facebook page: "After watching "Transformers 2", there will definitely be two kinds of people, one is to talk about the plot, and the other is to talk about special effects. If you take the plot, you will say that there is no good one.,Although there are more special effects.,But the plot is less than the first one.。 Take special effects as an example, you will say what kind of plot to watch this kind of film, it is clear that it is the scene and stunts, and the one who watches the plot is a stupid hat. I'm the kind of stupid hat who talks about the plot, and indeed, the plot of "Transformers 2" is a mess. Rotten Tomatoes also has IMBD, I can only give it a 4 points, as for freshness, 40%. ”

And another film critic is also quite unkind: "Michael Bay has purely become the spokesperson for the special effects of an explosion, and he doesn't care about any aesthetic diffraction and sublimation, how cool it is." Special effects were not all in the past, Superman Spider-Man sells character building, and special effects are one of the signature attractions of attraction; The Lord of the Rings sells epic plots, and special effects are the icing on the cake; Titanic sells stories and touches, and special effects are the bargaining chips of the atmosphere. Only Michael Bay's Transformers, you say that the first part can also be said to be a memory of reminiscing about childhood, and this second part is a promotion and movie from beginning to end, that's one word, special effects. My rating is 3 out of 3 with 30% freshness. ”

A special reviewer for The Hollywood Reporter also criticized: "A two-and-a-half-hour movie in which the protagonist experiences as many events and plot reversals as the 40-minute episode "24 Hours," despite being compared to "Terminator 4." The pace of the plot is much better controlled, but it still seems out of control. The rating is 6 out of 40% for freshness. ”

There are criticisms and praises. Science fiction film critic Harman praised: "The production process of stunts is very laborious, and it is all meticulous work!" Transformers' facial features, eyes, various delicate parts...... After reading the concept art of "Transformers 2" and comparing the actual finished product of "Transformers 2", I sincerely admire those masters who are full of fantasy. I give 8 points, and freshness is 60%. ”

Regardless of the reviews, "Transformers 2" staged a hot movie-watching craze around the world, and the global box office on the first day counted three days later exceeded $330 million, with China and North America contributing the most.

The popularity of "Transformers 2" has made Wang Shang's popularity rebound a lot. And there are too many reports belittled by Wang Shang outside, and now what the people want to hear is the praise of Wang Shang. Sometimes the media is so undisciplined, for the sake of the market, discipline or anything is not a problem at all.

Just when Transformers was released globally, Wang Shang was watching the Spring Festival Gala with his family.

On the eve of this year's Spring Festival and Chinese New Year's Eve, a litter of foreign actors came to the house again, and Wang Shang originally wanted to drive them out. As a result, the royal father and queen mother expressed their liking and happily entertained them. In the eyes of his parents, Wang Shang has so many good friends, which is definitely something to be happy about.

"Director, I see that the position of the chief director of the Spring Festival Gala is very popular, when can you go up......" Michelle asked with a big grin, but before she could finish speaking, the person next to her pulled her sleeve. Motioned for her not to continue.

"It's okay, I'll talk about it when I have time." Wang Shang's expression was calm. Although he was stripped of his identity as the director of language programs this year, Wang Shang did not have any anger, because he felt that this position was too low, and what Wang Shang wanted was the position of the chief director of the entire Spring Festival Gala. But even so, it might as well be Wang Shang to maliciously comment on this year's Spring Festival Gala program.

The show is getting more and more modern, since magic has been warmly sought after by hundreds of millions of people in China at the Spring Festival Gala. This year's Spring Festival Gala is also indispensable, performing a magic trick of changing people and bread.

In addition to magic, the proportion of modern singing and dancing has also increased, and the sketches and cross talk have also increased, which made the royal father and queen mother and a group of foreigners laugh.

Wang Shang looked at the Spring Festival Gala with a critical eye. I think this year's program arrangement is still good, better than last year.

Stay at home on the first day of the new year, visit your parents-in-law on the second day of the new year, and visit relatives on the third day of the new year......

Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it is the day when the crew of "Avatar" starts, and the crew and actors received a red envelope from Wang Shang as soon as they came to Zhangjiajie, which was big. The actors don't care after all, they are all local tyrants, and the crew is very happy, happy, they are energetic in moving boxes, their physical strength has also improved, and the Spring Festival holiday syndrome is gone.

After a busy day, I finally sorted out all the equipment and props, and the next day, "Avatar" officially started.

At the time of the start of the mobilization, Wang Shang encouraged everyone: "According to the progress, it should be completed next month, so everyone work hard!" ”

At this time, a staff member raised his hand and asked, "When will it be officially released?" I can't wait to see it. ”

The person next to him elbowed him and whispered, "Don't you talk nonsense, I already said that it was January 1, 2013." ”

"Do you want to do ** months later? That's an exaggeration, right? ”

Wang Shang understood what they meant, and explained: "Although it was completed in March, this movie is very different, its post-production workload is many times more than other films, and the post-production time is longer, at least more than half a year, so it is not released so quickly." ”

After the mobilization meeting, the crew began the first New Year's shooting.

――――――――――――――――

When the work started this year, Wang Shang did not return to the company, which made many employees who were looking forward to getting a big red envelope hard.

"Where's my red envelope?"

The behavior of giving out red envelopes on the first day of work started by Wang Shang has gradually become popular in the past two years, and countless enterprises and factories across the country have become a day of joy for countless employees on the day of starting, and only those leaders who want to give red envelopes are the ones who are hurting.

After a year, Wang Shang's popularity has increased a lot again because of his identity as the initiator of the red envelope.

And at this time, "Thor" was finally released, the first step was released in North America, and then gradually promoted to the overseas film market. As soon as it was released, it received continuous positive and negative reviews, but it was still mostly praised.

The fierce battle in the middle and the final battle at the end of the film, as well as the battle at the Rainbow Bridge, all made the audience addicted; And a large number of gods, starry sky, and savage planets are shown in the film. It is also a combination of computer special effects and live shooting to create excellent light and shadow effects. The 3D depth of field and on-screen effect are quite good, making the audience feel like they are in the world of Thor.

The evaluation of the group of mouthy film critics in North America is also positive and negative,

"Thor who exists as a god. It's the hardest of all Marvel characters, but this movie is very well done. I heard that the actor Chris who plays Thor Thor. Hemsworth was originally just a small TV series actor, and it was also an overseas TV series, and I heard that he was recommended by Wang Shang in Huaxia, just like Robert Downey Jr. in "Iron Man". I have to admire this Wang Shang's ability to recognize people, which is really surprising, I don't know how many unknown stars will want to dangle in front of him twice in the future. - "Variety".

"This is a high-level work from Marvel, and they have successfully launched a new hero this time." ――《the》。

"The film has a great style, providing the audience with a great fantasy journey in the latest 3D format, and the special effects and film setting ensure that the audience can get the excitement and excitement of the movie." - "International Screen".

And there are many critics of the demeaning "Thor". But no matter how these foul-mouthed film critics scold, the movie-watching craze outside is not low at all, although it is not as good as movies such as "Iron Man" and "Transformers", but it can be regarded as a good box office movie, with a box office income of more than 700 million US dollars.

Plus merchandise that is more than box office revenue, as well as online sales. is enough to make Marvel, Disney Studios, and Tianwang Film and Television earn gold coins.

The success of "Thor" obviously made Disney more excited, and immediately prepared to launch "Thor 2", and "The Avengers" was also stimulated by this to prepare in advance, the film and television adaptation rights of Iron Man and Thor are in the hands of Disney, and the film and television adaptation rights of Hulk and Captain America are in the hands of Universal and Paramount, at present, Universal and Paramount are very interested in the script of the Avengers, while Hawkeye and Black Widow have not yet adapted the movie. So the crew of "The Avengers" should be on the agenda soon.

Wang Shangting was glad that he used the comic copyright of "Transformers" to exchange for the movie copyright of Iron Man and Thor, so that he could share a lot of profits in this movie feast.

On February 3, 2012, "Iron Man" was finally released worldwide, with a total of more than 60 days in North America and a global box office of $830 million.

In front, "The Amazing Spider-Man" was released worldwide for $750 million, "Captain America" for $890 million, "X-Men" for $780 million, "Colony of Gods and Demons" for $630 million, and "Rio Adventure" for $550 million.

It can be seen from here. Sequel movies are more popular than non-sequel movies, while single-hero movies are preferred over multi-hero movies. However, none of these films exceeded $900 million, which has to be said to be a huge pity.

But most of these films can rank in the top 20 of the global film history total box office, which is enough to show that the global film market in 2011 has been stimulated growth.

At this time, the box office statistics agency in North America also duly threw out the 2011 box office summary report.

In 2011, the total global box office exceeded $47 billion!

Highest in North America. contributed $13.9 billion to the box office!!

China, on the other hand, contributed $5.2 billion, behind the European Union.

In terms of year-on-year growth, the total box office in 2011 was 130% of that in 2010, an increase that exceeded everyone's imagination!!

After Wang Shang received this data, he was also stunned, Wang Shang clearly remembered that the global box office data of the previous time and space in 2014 was only 35 billion US dollars, but he didn't expect this time and space to explode it in 2011, exceeding 34%!!

Wang Shang thought deeply for ten hours, and finally came to an important conclusion in his life: "It's the best thing to make a movie!" ”。
