Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
In fact, for Li Donglai, the album's follow-up is like a task relief, far less magical than the real integration into the music circle as the media said.
"It's just a mouthful of food." Li Donglai pretended to think. If this is heard, he will be jealous and will dismantle him.
After this album, it was unexpectedly popular, and I was finally relieved. At the same time, the new movie "The Grandmaster", which is very popular in China, officially debuted in North America and achieved unanimous praise.
However, there was also a situation of applause, and the box office in the release week on March 7 was only 165,000, and it was also impossible to escape the embarrassment of whether it was popular or not. Of course, this box office has also performed well in Chinese films, and it is already the limit to finally break into the top ten of the Chinese box office in the United States. Although the leading actors Zhang Ziyi and Liang Wei went to the United States to promote in person, they did not play much role.
As of the end of March, the mainland box office was 290 million, or about US$46,621,546; The Hong Kong box office was 21,252,833 Hong Kong dollars, about 2,762,868 US dollars. Taiwan box office 4o,989,388 Taiwan dollars or $1,647,4o4 USD, Singapore box office $882,4, Thailand box office
Of course, the main overseas battlefield of the King of Sunglasses is Europe, but there are also limited achievements. Sure enough, many European countries, including Russia, have not received much response, with $7.61 million being the total revenue in Europe and the United States, and the global box office exceeding 60 million. also made the highest-grossing movie of the King of Sunglasses.
Despite this, the overseas table of "The Grandmaster" xiàn. It is still called the ice-breaking hope of Chinese films by the domestic media.
The results of "The Grandmaster" have brought signs of breaking the ice to the exit of Chinese films that have fallen to the freezing point in the past 7 years. Today's domestic films are keen on exporting. However, most of the box office results are not ideal, and many films that break box office records in China only have a box office of hundreds of thousands or even tens of thousands overseas.
Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, Chen Kaige and other big names are getting weaker and weaker at the overseas box office, and the current performance of "The Grandmaster" is not accidental. It has made strategic directions in overseas travel, marketing, publicity, and services that transcend cultural differences, and is regarded as finding a new channel and direction for Chinese films to export, and its overall operation. It has certain enlightening significance for the export of Chinese-language films.
At the same time, it can also be seen that "costume + kung fu + martial arts" is still a unique cultural label of China in North America, until now, most of the Chinese films that have achieved certain success in North America are still kung fu movies, and 8 of the Chinese films in the US box office list are of this type.
But after Li Dong came to watch the movie, he felt a pity.
It's really beautiful. It's a pity that it's too restrained, and the mainland version also deleted Yan zhòng. The audience was looking forward to the final battle between Yilintian and Ip Man, but there was nothing to do with Lintian. Zhang Zhen has been busy for several years and has become the biggest trick. The exercise of rights in North America was bought by the bloodsucking company Weinstein, and the ending was difficult to see, no wonder it was not flattering.
If only he had followed up on it. Maybe the Phantom will take over the overseas trip of "The Grandmaster". The king of sunglasses has been in the Chinese film market for so many years, winning countless awards, and the Cannes judges are very high. Li Donglai was still a newcomer who had just debuted at that time. Although his films have achieved the highest box office in the world, it has not changed the perception of some pretentious people. The King of Sunglasses also invited Li Donglai to make a cameo at that time. As far as his filming degree meets Li Donglai, who is a fast gunner, he can only find something wrong.
The two sides had a little unpleasantness at a drinking party, and then there was no communication.
"So be it."
Li Donglai doesn't care too much, he cares more about another Hong Kong celebrity's work than the king of sunglasses. Although he did not win many awards, his works are truly deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and his popularity at the box office is ten times higher than that of the king of sunglasses.
After temporarily arranging some work in the United States, he returned to China alone.
Last year, after "People in Thailand Embarrassment" just created a box office nuclear bomb, the new film "Journey to the West" jointly produced by Phantom and Xinghui Film Company has opened a large-scale release in Southeast Asia.
Zhou Xingxing is already white-headed, and if you compare Liu Dehua at the same time as him, you can know how weak his body is. This look also made him think about it repeatedly, and finally decided not to star in his own movie. This is also the first time he has worked entirely behind the scenes and not appeared on the screen.
Zhou Xingxing, who has not launched a new film for many years, completely bids farewell to the front of the stage and starts as a director behind the scenes. Although he did not participate, the style of the whole film is still Zhou-style nonsensical, and several actors with yellow necks and heraldic coats of arms are also on fire in the mainland. Yellow Neck is one of the protagonists of the first domestic film to break the box office of 1o billion, and after the heraldic studio leaned on the phantom, the star fortune has become smoother and smoother over the years.
The popularity of the two of them also provided a lot of help to the box office of this film. Although it can't be compared with many classic comedies of Zhou Xingxing back then, this film is still known as a Zhou's comedy worth watching.
In addition, Stephen Chow, who has been keen on special effects in recent years, once again played special effects scenes in this comedy. Although at the current level of special effects, this is still the fatal wound of this film. However, the use of Imax and 3D release due to special effects also makes this film more advantageous at the box office, and the average ticket price is as high as 41 yuan, much higher than other films released in the same period.
As a result, this "Journey to the West" co-starred by Emblem, Yellow Neck, Shu Qi, and Luo Zhixiang was officially released in China, and it also became the most popular film for the Spring Festival.
is worthy of being a star, only one day after its release, and the single-day box office received 78.96 million, breaking the box office record of 68oo Chinese films held by "Painted Skin 2" in one fell swoop. Coupled with the 2oo0,000 box office screened in the previous domestic theater, the weekly box office reached 8oo70,000 yuan, and Shun Lì won the first mainland weekly box office champion in 2o13.
The Hollywood blockbusters "Cloud Atlas" and "OO7: Skyfall" released at the same time were all cut down.
Another Chinese New Year blockbuster "Getting Better and Better Village Night", which was released on the same day as "Journey to the West", was a little pitiful at the box office. This is directed by Zhang Yibai, director of "Carry on Love to the End", starring Liang Jiahui, Wang Baoqiang, Wang Luodan and others, in addition to Tong Dawei, Guo Chengcheng, Xu Jinlei, Zhang Ziyi and a large number of celebrities cameo joining, from the cast alone, this is also an all-star New Year comedy with box office appeal.
However, the box office situation after the release of this film was very unsatisfactory. The single-day box office was only 7.45 million, only one-tenth of the "Journey to the West" released on the same day, ranking eighth on the box office list last week.
Hong Kong likes to play this kind of Lunar New Year in the right way, piling up a lot of celebrities and playing a farce. In the past, they had repeatedly achieved big box office in Hong Kong, so they aimed at the mainland and changed the lively places from Hong Kong to the countryside.
It's a pity that mainland audiences are generally no longer interested in this kind of Chinese New Year comedy. Topical movies that gather stars always feel like they are improvised things, and the quality is hard to pass. At the same time, the quality of this film is indeed relatively mediocre, and most of the viewers who have watched it are disappointed. This feedback to the box office also caused a further decline in the box office of this film.
In the second week of February, the Western "qingren" festival is scheduled.
The second installment of the Phantom of China in 2o13 was adapted from the classic Japanese pure love movie "1o1 Proposal".
This movie is also the adaptation copyright that Li Donglai personally went to Japan to negotiate, bringing together Sister Chi Ling and the new comedy king Huang Bo to stage the drama of ** Silk counterattacking the goddess. After its release, the table was good, and the box office exceeded 100 million in a single week. After 6 days of release, the box office successfully exceeded 100 million in a single week, reaching 121 million. And this result is still at the box office under the pressure of "Journey to the West", which is really rare.
Li Donglai also specially interacted on Weibo and gave Sister Zhiling and Huang Bo a "big red envelope".
Huang Bo received a "big red envelope" and also joked on Weibo: "The big boss is the one who picks the door, such a big boss, giving a red envelope is still static, at least make a dynamic picture show." Sister Chi Ling was much more polite, and replied in a coquettish tone, "I finally lived up to my mission, and I was relieved." ”
But in the final analysis, this week is still the official large-scale release of "Journey to the West".
On the day of the "Qingren" festival alone, the one-day income exceeded 100 million yuan, reaching 123 million yuan, breaking the previous single-day box office record of 114 million held by "Transformers 3". In the first week of its release, it also set a high box office of 560 million in a single week, breaking many records. The total box office successfully exceeded 600 million, reaching 653 million.
The number of moviegoers in a week of "Journey to the West" alone can reach 1.36O, which is even more than the total number of moviegoers in a single week in the mainland many times before.
In fact, the South Korean media is also very concerned about the situation of the Big 6, not only South Korea, but also Southeast Asian countries, including the United States. Since last year's Spring Festival, a "Thai Embarrassment" created a billion box office, and more attention has been paid to the Chinese box office market. This year's "Journey to the West" hit another high box office, with 1.36o million viewers, this is a one-week result of a movie, which is already an annual box office record in South Korea, and will break the highest record, no wonder they will be envious.
According to the figures released by the Film Bureau of the State Radio-Television-General Administration, the national film box office maintained a steady and rapid growth in 2o12, reaching 1.7 billion 73 million yuan, an increase over the previous year. This is also the tenth consecutive year that China's film box office has achieved substantial growth since the implementation of the film industrialization reform in 2oo2, and compared with the box office figure of 920 million yuan in 2oo2, the growth has reached a record high in just ten years.
After becoming the world's third largest film producer in 2o1O, China's total box office has surpassed Japan to become the world's second largest box office market.
In this year, a total of 22 domestic films entered the "100 million yuan club", 7 films reached a box office of more than 200 million yuan, and 3 films reached a box office of more than 700 million yuan, all of which exceeded the previous years in terms of quantity. Among them, there are not many movies produced by the Phantom, but they are particularly eye-catching.
Everyone in the film industry knows how great the energy of Li Donglai and Phantom is now, and now it is the new year. The Phantom of China is starting to work, and that will be a major event that everyone will pay attention to.
