Chapter 388: Inception Storm

After the premiere of "Inception", the media did not lose interest because of Zhang Yi's slippage.

Bali Diller, who stayed at the top of the tank, naturally knew his intentions, and easily directed the media's attention from himself to Zhou Yunfa and other actors who had not left.

This is an all-Chinese starring movie, but the attraction of this film is not the actors. Its ingenious story concept, exquisite dream setting, shocking special effects, fiery action, and countless Western fans have forgotten the actor's skin color. And focus on the film itself.

The next day, the media around the world, especially those with the surname of entertainment, almost all reported on the film with front-page headlines, and its reviews were surprising, even the reputation of fans was unusually high.

Zhang Yi's new film "Inception" seems to be based on wisdom and reflection, putting the actors' performances in an important position; does not define loyalty, annihilation of good and evil, wanders in the gray area, and directly points to the entanglement of people's hearts; seems to be a random and chaotic editing technique, but it shows rich details of the intricate storyline.

Time Weekly!

Zhang Yi's new film "Inception" is a very clever film, rich in details and intricate narrative, bringing the audience into a subconscious labyrinth. Zhang Yichuang is a surrealist horror world, somewhat similar to Jungian doctrine, which challenges the viewer on multiple levels, the real and the unreal. Rapid editing and agile narrative bring the surreal world to life, and the consciousness of the human brain presented by virtual image technology has reached the pinnacle.

The Times!

Zhang Yi's new film "Inception", although the structure of the play is quite complex, but from the perspective of audience experience, the surface story of this film is still a typical Hollywood genre film. Although this is a film starring all Chinese actors. Its exquisite story structure and almost perfect composition of movie elements all reveal a Hollywood flavor -

The Hollywood Reporter!

As soon as this film was released, it immediately shocked the entire film industry and caused a sensation in the whole world.

Whether it is the industry or fans, the evaluation of this film has reached an unimaginable height.

Bali Diller, as the president of Polar Shadow Film Company, will naturally not let go of this opportunity to hype. Under his subsequent push, the words that Lucas said in an interview with reporters have become known to the whole world.

This is a film that is ahead of its time.

The special effects technology and shooting techniques in this film have transcended the limitations of the times. It was a leap forward in film history.

Countless filmmakers have to admit this, the special effects presented in this movie have surpassed many technologies of this era, and it doesn't look like a movie of this era.

Of course, this is only because there are too many technologies beyond the past, which makes people exaggerate that it is not a movie of this era.

Of course, this kind of exaggerated statement really tells the truth.

The world premiere of "Inception" broke the premiere records of countless regions on the first day, and many regions even set a new high.

And the most prominent of them is naturally Hong Kong, Zhang Yi's home base.

Zhang Yi's appeal in Hong Kong is incomparable, and among the actors, whether it is Zhou Yunfa, Hong Jinbao, Yuan Biao, or Zhou Huimin and others, who has weak box office appeal in Hong Kong? The superimposed box office appeal of these people is directly a kill.

The box office on the first day broke the record set by Zhang Yi in "Jurassic Park", and directly passed 20 million. It's just the first day.

Although the Hong Kong market is only that big, this film definitely has the potential to attract those fans to watch it more than once.

Of course, after all, the population is only so much, and the box office did not go up the next day, but fell. It's also the only region in the entire world where box office drops on the second day of release. But it's also more than 10 million.

The box office of 30 million in two days is something that no one dares to imagine. The movie that was released in January and made a box office of 30 million is considered extremely successful. But now, Zhang Yi's film won more than 30 million in two days. This is unmatched by other films.

With the double harvest of box office word-of-mouth, the whole world has set off a discussion about dreams. Everyone is talking about this movie, if you haven't seen this movie, you can't talk at all, and there are even some two sides who talk about business, talking about this movie, and in the end, the two sides are actually very happy to cooperate successfully.

The world swept through a storm about dreams, and it also pushed the film to the point where everyone knows about it, and even "everyone watches it".

Within a week of its release, countless regions around the world broke the record set by Zhang Yi's "Jurassic Park". Of course, there are many areas that still haven't broken the record set by "Jurassic Park".

After all, "Jurassic Park" is suitable for all ages, while "Inception" children can't understand it at all. However, just because they can't read it doesn't mean they won't read it.

"Inception" undoubtedly won the weekly championship in North America, and the box office also broke the record set by "Jurassic Park" that year, directly winning the box office of 100 million US dollars, making countless film companies and filmmakers envious and jealous.

$100 million a week, directly breaking the North American record.

And when the global weekly box office statistics of "Inception" came out, it directly detonated the world and shocked everyone.

This is not a film, does it want to pull Zhang Yi's "Jurassic Park" a few years ago from the top of the global box office list?

With a box office of nearly $400 million, I don't know how many people's eyeballs have been blinded.

It's just a week's worth of box office. Moreover, this film continues to be popular.

Zhang Yi had returned to Hong Kong at this time, and when he heard the news, he was also taken aback. With nearly $400 million in the first week, it wouldn't be much of a problem for the global box office to surpass the original Jurassic Park's billion.

Because of technical reasons, many special effects in Zhang Yi's version of "Inception" did not reach the original version, and he never thought that the box office could reach as much as the original version.

The original version only grossed just over $800 million, and it hasn't even surpassed the box office of the original Jurassic Park.

So Zhang Yi just thought that it might be more box office than the original version, but he didn't expect to surpass "Jurassic Park".

But now, Zhang Yi's version of "Jurassic Park" has a much higher box office than the original version. What Zhang Yi didn't expect was that "Inception" would have a chance to surpass "Jurassic Park"!

It seemed like an unexpected surprise.

However, after thinking about it, Zhang Yi still understood the key.

In "Inception", there are too many things that are too shocking. That kind of shock is much more shocking than seeing dinosaurs appear alive in front of yourself and others.

Dinosaurs are animals after all, and they are animals that have been extinct for a long, long time. There's always a limit to what can be impressive. But in Inception, it's different.

Although "Inception" is presented as a surreal world, the things in it are familiar to everyone after all.

There are familiar things, familiar streets, etc., which are very close to your own life. And dinosaurs are too far away from the lives of themselves and others.

What's more, "Inception" involves many famous cities and famous buildings around the world. Of course, Zhang Yi chose those cities and familiar buildings as the background of the film. One of the main references is the box office potential of those places.

The main reason why the original version of "Inception" only grossed more than 800 million US dollars was that fans at that time were influenced by too many blockbusters, and even 3D movies were already popular.

But now? Although there are many blockbusters, there are few special effects blockbusters, and fans have not been numb by those shocking special effects. What's more, "Inception" is not only attractive by special effects, there are too many things that can attract people in it, which also makes "Inception" popular at the box office.

With the release of Inception, a strange image appeared in some places, especially in the Chinese area, with Hong Kong and Taiwan as crimes.

Among the bookstores, the best-selling book is no longer Zhang Yi's novel, but "Zhou Gong's Dream Interpretation"! Many people go to temples and Taoist temples, not to ask for Buddha and worship gods, but to find those monks and Taoists to interpret dreams.

Moreover, the release of this movie has also promoted the development of a career. For those who set up stalls on the street to count the door, the biggest word written is no longer "measuring eight characters, counting marriage", but "interpreting dreams"!
