Chapter 465: The Second in the World of 40 Million
The media who are familiar with Yang Yichen know that he has always been unstoppable, so many media have reported on the Waterloo encounter in "Hurricane Rescue", but when he came here, he also put on a posture that I can turn the world upside down, you didn't take medicine today.
With the current results of your play, is it worth showing off?
Yang Yichen's breeziness, the disapproval of some reporters, and the disdain of a small number all changed with the latest news delivered the next day.
On the first day of increasing to 800 screens, the box office exceeded 2.2 million, which directly shocked the entire North American market.
Immediately, the theater chain continued to increase the number of screens, and some surveys showed that the reputation of this film was very good, Smith White and Zhang Qingxin teamed up and directly made a big deal of 1,500 yuan, and then the news exploded in the entire film industry, and Huaxia received the belated news.
More than three million box office in one day, the box office curve is completely all the way up, it is a completely skyrocketing trend, according to this trend, it is not a problem to win more than 20 million box office in a week, what does this mean Everyone knows very well in their hearts, a "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", a "Hero", this has always been the supreme work sought after and touted by the Chinese people, the weekly box office of 20 million, the results were not bad before, but with the global release of the third part of the Star Wars prequel, Revenge of the Sith, all eyes were attracted by it, the North American box office, which has shown a slight decline since the beginning of the year, has also begun a recovery journey. "Hurricane Rescue" is like a small pebble thrown into a lake, which has too little influence for the whole lake, but with the power of the thrower, it is great. The ripples are quite large-scale, at least no longer unnoticed, and the world is beginning to see the ripples produced by this film.
Thinking of Yang Yichen's words, many media reporters could only shake their heads and smile bitterly, or curse in a low voice, releasing the resentment in their hearts, and they were unhappy. Looking back, not all the media took it out of context, but after watching a day's decadence and two days without recovery, they hurried back to cover Yang Yichen's coffin. In the final analysis, it is not that he has been slapped in the face too much, he is anxious to get back on the field, he wants to see the huge influence of his failure, and then promote the influence of TV media and the sales of print media.
Three million, four million. Four and a half million. Five million one million, seven million, nine million, ten million......
The weekly box office of more than 40 million swept the world, and it truly achieved a thick accumulation, and broke out of the encirclement as a dark horse when the Sith's revenge swept the world. The second-place runner-up at the weekly box office followed the Sith's revenge and formed the first group to stand out from the crowd. It also shook the whole world, a movie that snubbed the box office of only tens of thousands of yuan on the first day, staged a real counterattack for everyone all the way up, and let the real Chinese pure commercial film step onto the stage of Hollywood.
The Chinese media were dumbfounded, they didn't know what to say at all, and the big media that were as stable as Mount Tai in the past sent elite soldiers and strong generals to the United States from China for interviews, although because of the Sith's revenge, both the number of films and the audience were squeezed to a certain extent, but "Hurricane Rescue" itself does not need too many resources, and has achieved such results, and the attendance rate of each game has fully met Yang Yichen's expectations, and he even thinks that this time period is very good, There is a Hollywood blockbuster in the real sense of the word, so that "Hurricane Rescue" will not become the target of public criticism to be taken out for a comprehensive analysis, the second is very good, really good, not only left a good reputation, but also in the comparison with the special effects of a blockbuster, let people see the high quality of the special effects of Chinese movies, the only thing that everyone feels is not enjoyable is that there are still fewer big scenes in the city, and the previous scenes are somewhat limited, but it is already very good, the rhythm of the story is fantastic, you are dizzying to watch, Several battle methods show the director's skills in camera switching.
Yang Yichen is famous, but the biggest benefit of this film in terms of fame is John Woo, who was beaten back to his original form from Hollywood and returned to Xiangjiang, a "Hurricane Rescue" with an investment of less than 10 million US dollars, with such achievements, many people have started to get in touch with John Woo again, and his directing skills have also begun to recognize again.
But John Woo knows what he knows, he admits that his own strength in this film has been shown, and the achievements can only account for thirty percent or even less, that little guy is too powerful, this film is really universal in the world in terms of core values, transforming all acts of force into the value of family affection, and giving up all principles in order to save his daughter, which greatly alleviates the peaceful fall brought about by the strong battle of this film.
I only have one daughter, for her, what is peace and what is morality, I don't need it, I only ask my daughter to be safe, I must rescue her with my own hands, for this, even if the whole Xiangjiang is turned upside down.
With such a plot, in addition to criticizing your father for being a little too violent in the process, what else can you say, if you were this father, would you give up your small family for everyone? Obviously has the ability to accomplish everything, but to believe in a group of police officers who are far inferior to themselves in terms of ability and self-confidence, it is really better to come yourself.
Everyone believes that in the next week, "Hurricane Rescue" will have a relatively good sustained result, and it may be difficult to break 100 million, but for a movie from China, don't say 100 million, even if it is 50 million, it is already worthy of a special book, and it is worth going into the history of Chinese film and television. At first glance, when I saw the middle-aged man he played, I subconsciously felt that I would definitely play a bad role, but when I looked at it, I would find that some of my peers, especially some of my peers, would have a strong recognition, and I felt that this actor had captured the essence of the middle-aged man.
There are some criticisms of the values of this film, but most of them still agree with it, at least in the West, the more liberal ideas make them feel that as a father, this is a true cowboy spirit father, for the sake of his daughter, it is rare to see a large family watching this film together.
Middle-aged couples and young children, which are two distinct teams in the past movie theaters, young people like to be free and like to do some things on their own, middle-aged couples are willing to enjoy each other's little romance after work, watching movies together, this kind of thing rarely occurs in the United States, unless it is a young child to watch some cartoons, otherwise everyone is watching their own, but "Hurricane Rescue" has changed this phenomenon, a family to watch together, the perception of family affection has also improved, I dare not say that I can change the emotions between parents and children, at least let children know that if you encounter such a thing, your parents will definitely stand up unswervingly, they may make you feel nagging, or you may feel that they are old and can't keep up with the times, but no matter when it comes, they will be the most staunch guardian saint behind you and will never turn their backs on you.
The single-week box office of more than 40 million US dollars does not need any explanation, this is the most worthy news to be reported in front of the media, especially the Chinese media, do you see anything else to criticize about this figure? If you don't chase it much, you're sorry for the miracles that people have created outside.
What hubris?
What's embarrassing?
What is not mature enough?
All these words have disappeared without a trace, those who stood up before jumped high to criticize Yang Yichen, they have long been hiding, this time they failed again, count you Yang Yichen's luck, such a start can be reversed by you, we want to see if you can always succeed, and I don't believe that you can always succeed, we are waiting for the moment when you fail, the higher you climb now, the more painful we are slapped in the face, and the more ruthless we will retaliate in the future, waiting for you, after all, one day, we will come back.
At this time, everyone knew why Yang Yichen didn't go to the United States to supervise the war for the second time, why he dared to release such wild words in the face of the media, and he was not afraid to go all over the world with the bottom of his heart, the conflict between Eastern and Western cultures did not appear, and he got a good reputation and box office in both aspects, this success to some extent surpasses "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Hero", the more successful these two films are abroad, the more general the response in China, it has to be after winning awards abroad or winning a lot of box office, It will only receive more attention when it is fed back to Huaxia, and there will be so many professionals to analyze the success of this film, and what is buried under the plot and actors' performances.
In this regard, some people think that it is the director's skills and the connotation of the whole film, and "Hurricane Rescue" is a complete failure in this, and it only succeeds with good special effects.
Yang Yichen just shook his head and didn't say anything after hearing this.
Whether the film is a means of conveying a certain spirit, as a means of propaganda and education, or simply an artistic appreciation for the public's leisure and entertainment spirit, there will be no answer to the discussion, some people will say that doing both is really successful, can it? Obviously, it can't, it can only be tilted and involved, Yang Yichen is a staunch supporter of the latter, if even school teachers and parents can't get it, do you expect the movie to do it? If the school teachers and parents do it, they don't need movies to replace them.
The movie is not biased, not moral, does not seek to educate anyone, and has a slight feeling at a certain point after watching it, which is enough.
Audio-visual enjoyment, leisure and relaxation, worth the ticket price, enough. (To be continued......)
