Chapter 286: This First Day Box Office... It's horrible!

In fact, although the reporter's words were not good, they did not mean to insult Chen Xi, in fact, what this reporter said was even more authentic, because the problems they are facing now do have a special relationship with this.

Chen Xi organized the language a little, and then said: "For such a question, I think I am full of confidence!" It is true that many people in the North American market have an image of Chinese movies as those ancient people with long hair and fluttering, and costume kung fu movies are their influence on Chinese films, but you have to say that there are many other types of excellent movies in our country! Chinese films are by far the most popular genre of foreign-language films in the North American market, and it is true that the best of them are costume films, but we still have movies like "Alive" and "Farewell My Concubine" that can get good box office. Just as everyone only thought that Chinese action movies should be costumed martial arts to look good, but the results of "Raid" are very good, I believe that "Source Code" can also bring a refreshing feeling to anyone. ”

Chen Xi's words were spoken in a series of non-stop English, and the technical content in the middle was really not low.

Many foreigners also have to say that Chen Xi's English is really excellent, and it is not at all something that ordinary people can achieve.

However, Chen Xi's words are still good, and he is neither humble nor arrogant.

"So the genre of "Source Code" is a bit like "Alive" and "Farewell My Concubine", does it have a deep historical accumulation? As with the Chinese genre movies that we've seen, you know, the Chinese in them have a lot of things that have given us a specific image...... Oh, my God. This guy deliberately shook his head slightly and said, "It was really a sad era!" ”

Hearing this, Chen Xi instantly felt a strong anger filling his chest, and an anger even wanted him to beat this slut directly.

Damn it!

This question may sound like nothing, simple and ordinary, but in fact. There is a real disdain in this.

Chinese films, I have to say, many literary films and the like, which can attract wide attention in Europe and the United States, there are too many of them related to the ten-year catastrophe, "Alive", "Farewell My Concubine", "Sunny Day", ...... Others, such as "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", show the dark side of China......

Therefore, some people will think that China's fifth-generation directors are trying to expose their scars to win some love and favor from foreigners, and get the status of so-called international directors, these words are too damning, and no one knows what they think, maybe everything is a little bit...... Actually, there is such a thing as a movie. If it is developed to South Korea, it is a magical country where almost any film can be audited.

In fact, in the United States, the so-called country of freedom beacon in many people's hearts, the film censorship system is definitely not lax, and it is far worse than South Korea, but some people imagine that place too beautiful.

But that's too much luxury for China, and it's true that there are big problems with censorship and the like, but the biggest part of the problem is not that it's too harsh. It's because the review is unclear, there is no standard for death at all, and many times it is vague, what movies can be reviewed and what movies can't. It's often the people behind the distribution and producer of the movie, and this unfairness is the biggest problem. If it is only on the whole, China's audit is indeed necessary, there is no way. Because of ideology and the problem of world competition, coupled with the fact that many cents who have received money are known to spread rumors and deceive them, the Internet comments in many places feel like they are about to die......

Public opinion is a very important thing. During these sensitive times, there are things that are really necessary in order to avoid the possibility of actually being peacefully evolved and so on.

After all, even if it is the Japanese film master Akira Kurosawa, there are many Japanese who grit their teeth at him and think that he is a traitor, and he is also specially showing the weaknesses of the Japanese to others in the world, and when things come back to this point, it is the Westerners, facing the ten-year catastrophe of the Chinese and the like, anyway, it is the dark side of China, with extraordinary attention, and I don't know if they are looking for superiority or how......

And now this guy said this sentence, which already carried a kind of ridicule and sarcasm.

"Calm down! Calm down! ”

Chen Xi hurriedly took a deep breath, because he was almost about to directly attack the United States here......

Although Chen Xi is not an anti-American, he does have a dislike for the United States, a country that is sanctimonious, as if it is the hope of the world, and acts as the world's policeman everywhere, but what they bring with them is the never-ending war and countless people who have died in Afghanistan, Iraq and many other places...... They are substituting a lot of people into the abyss.

It's as if Mikhail Gorbachev, a loyal friend of the United States, personally sent the Soviet Union into the abyss, as if they had completed their peaceful evolution and would rise from now on, and the economy would be very good......

However, the dreamers of capitalism have created a happy world in which "the streets are full of hungry and frozen bones, and millions of Russian prostitutes go to Western Europe", the democracy and freedom that Yeltsin ordered to bombard the White House, and the Putin empire that is still stupid and coarse but whose economy is constantly collapsing...... But these things, in fact, just think about it in your heart, if Chen Xi says it here, not to mention that he is not a researcher of international strategy or anything at all, and he can't say too much, even if he is asked to say it, then his "Source Code" should not be mixed up.

So, he still tries not to get involved in these things.

Chen Xi said: "Our country is not only "War Apocalypse" and other movies, my "Source Code" is a fusion of Chinese action movie-style beauty, "Raid" like explosion, and movies with sci-fi ideas and ideas in the plot, as for whether everyone can accept it, the praise so far should be able to prove it!" ”

Chen Xi still couldn't help but stab.

The movie "Apocalypse of War" attacked the absurdity of the Vietnam War in the United States, so Chen Xi's sentence is still soft and rigid.

Liu Yifei heard Chen Xi's familiar and beautiful English, heard his eloquent talk, and heard his point-to-point remarks, and felt a little more strange in her heart...... Chen Xizhen is a very strange guy, he is always bringing too many surprises to people, as if he can do everything......

By the time this interview was finished, Chen Xi also wiped a handful of sweat. Today, at least he didn't get involved in too many deep-seated issues, and he still withdrew the topic to the movie itself, and now he knows what this group of Yankees thinks: after all, they are for the effect of the show, so they have been deliberately bringing Chen Xi to the ideological place, which makes him very annoyed, but there is no way, fortunately, Chen Xi's thinking is quick, and he is neither humble nor arrogant, but he can also refute it with some sleek things.

After Chen Xi and they returned from the United States, the North American screening of "Source Code" was larger, and the attendance rate was also increasing. The key point is that the film's critical acclaim is also increasing, which is quite important for "Source Code", and after the North American market is a good weather vane, the film markets in many other countries are gradually extending olive branches to them.

…… On December 14th, the high-profile battle for hegemony officially began, because on this day, "Nanjing! Nanking! The highly anticipated film was finally released on the big screen in China, and the film was first valued for a lot of publicity, and many people knew about the film...... But after that. The film attracted attention because of the war of words that broke out between the film and "Source Code".

The competition between the two movies started with just a scolding between some fans, and then even the top management of the movie began to attack each other.

Many people want to see the end result of these two films, even if everyone actually knows "Nanjing! Nanking! The general trend has gone, but everyone is still looking forward to seeing a fight......

14th day. Nanjing! Nanking! The box office came out, and this movie finally got a first-day box office of 4 million, which may not be bad if it is placed on other movies, but it is placed on this movie. It made Lu Qi and them feel sweating profusely, as if they had been hit by a thunderbolt on a sunny day! Oh my God, what's going on?

4 million box office!

It's a joke!

It's still a Chinese New Year stall!

It's over!

And. What makes them feel the most terrifying is that after all, many people have brought the original deep space film and television army and even many fans to attack "Nanjing! Nanking! After seeing the specific content of this movie, I really felt that everything was like that, and these statements verified each other, so "Nanjing! Nanking! The word-of-mouth has suffered Waterloo, and it seems that the general trend has gone.

By the time of the release of "Source Code" on the 17th, it had been three days, but "Nanjing! Nanking! The box office of such a blockbuster has not yet reached 10 million, and this terrifying situation makes people know that this battle, Lu Qi is really finished! He just poked a hornet's nest, but now the result is too much for him to bear.

On the 17th, the more anticipated "Source Code" officially premiered!

This movie has indeed been expected by too many people, after all, this is Chen Xi's science fiction film, and there have been so many film reviews that have praised this movie before, so many people are really looking forward to this movie...... "Source Code" is screened in the United States, but not in China, after all, at Chen Xi's current level, there is no need to be screened, many things will be told by many fans, and movies like "Source Code", if it is really screened, it may be spoiled by people.

So, to this day, everyone is not only looking forward to the box office of "Source Code", but also looking forward to seeing what the situation of this movie is, and whether it can break out at the box office like Chen Xi's arrogance......

The day of the 17th is Monday, in fact, this is a pretty bad release time, on Monday, the box office of a movie can reach 10 million on the first day is already almost a masterpiece, if the word of mouth does not collapse later, the box office of the movie will exceed 100 million is a sure thing.

Chen Xi chose to release the movie on Monday but also helplessly, after a lot of consideration......

But it doesn't matter, as long as the reputation of the movie is up, there are many things that you don't have to worry about too much.

On this day, many people estimate that the first-day box office of "Source Code" may rush to 15 million, and then look at the final box office of this film according to the follow-up word-of-mouth of the movie.

Although it was Monday, still, early in the morning, there were more people watching "Source Code", and the number of people watching "Source Code" continued to increase at noon, and after the end of work in the afternoon, the number of people watching "Source Code" increased wildly, and many movie theaters were already hard to find tickets during this period, and basically got some not very good seats, and the good seats were almost occupied.

In the evening, the playing hall of "Source Code" was filled with a variety of different sounds.

At the beginning, many fans were dewy and didn't know what was going on, but for many audiences, whether it was Chen Xi or Liu Yifei, they were quite eye-catching, especially Chen Xi, who had not seen it on the big screen before, and now that he suddenly saw it, he really felt handsome, so the current audience also watched it, and they also felt that this kind of suspense was getting deeper and deeper, and it was becoming more and more attractive.

Then, the sci-fi idea of the whole story of "Source Code" in the middle was revealed, and many people suddenly gasped, and then they couldn't stop admiring, thinking that Chen Xi is the most promising young director in China after all, this idea is really against the sky! And although this suspense has been solved, the subsequent development of the film still makes people feel nervous and gripping, and they are reluctant to leave the big screen at a glance.

Until the end, everyone feels hearty, this feeling of seeing such a good movie is like eating a fragrant and steaming hot pot on a cold day, and the whole person is comfortable from the inside out.

"Chen Xi's best movie, it's amazing!"

"The best sci-fi movie in China, without a doubt!"

"Only Chen Xi can create such a good movie! Really adore him more and more! ”

With such and such a variety of praise, it is the box office of the first day of this movie.

This is a jaw-dropping number: 23.08 million!

It's Monday! Can we be a little restrained?

All of a sudden, the entire film industry was shocked! Chen Xi really lived up to his reputation, and he was able to hit the first-day box office of 23.08 million on Monday, which really exceeded everyone's expectations. (To be continued......)
