Chapter 109: Outstanding Achievement

The movie Inception quickly set off a big storm that swallowed everything in Europe and the United States, and the wind reviews are far above Avatar, because Avatar belongs to a movie that looks at the effect plot but is average, and Inception is indeed a movie with an excellent plot and effect, and Avatar is completely obscure if you only watch the general 2D, although there are some thought-provoking meanings in it, but compared with Inception, there is a gap like a moat!

Inception is a movie that combines elements of science fiction, family and love, in which Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a seasoned thief. When people are most mentally vulnerable, he sneaks into other people's dreams and steals valuable information and secrets from the subconscious.

During one mission, Cobb and his companion Arthur (Joseph Gordon Levitt) are in danger of being killed within two days due to the obstruction of Cobb's subconscious, Cobb's deceased wife, Mel (Marion Cotillard), who fails to steal the information needed by their employer.

In order to save their lives, another of their companions betrays them to the object of their previous dream theft - Saito (Ken Watanabe), Saito finds Cobb and Arthur, hoping that they can serve him, that is, to find Fisher (Cillian Murphy), the son of the global monopoly giant, implant the idea of disbanding the company in Fisher's mind, so as to eliminate his competitors, and if successful, take him back home.

As Cobb desperately wanted to return home to see his children, he agreed to Saito's request and found Ames the "Pretender", Yusfo the "Apothecary", and Ariadne the "Dream Maker". Bought the entire airline, let Fisher's private jet troubleshoot, and then implemented the plan on Fisher's flight to Los Angeles.

Cobb and a group of six people brought Fisher into a pre-created dream and cultivated Fisher's mind, but Fisher had previously received professional training to prevent attacks in dreams.

So in the first layer of dreams, they were violently attacked by Fisher's subconscious guards, and Saito was injured.

But in the end, he succeeded in implanting the idea of disbanding the company into Fisher's mind, and resolved the conflict between Fisher and his father.

In the middle of this, Cobb was thwarted by his beloved wife Mel, which almost made the plan fail, but Cobb finally overcame himself, got rid of the confusion of the phantom of his deceased wife in his mind, survived the danger of being lost in his dream forever, and rescued the lost Saito from the edge of his subconscious. The movie leaves everyone with a suspense at the end.

After Cobb is reunited with the child in "Back to Reality", he uses a spinning top to test whether he is still in a dream, and the movie ends abruptly, is it in reality or a dream?

However, it doesn't matter whether it's a dream or a reality.

When it comes to presenting surrealist dreams, Inception doesn't follow the Hollywood path, and the cloudy, liquid-effect scene style is abandoned in favor of large-scale, mechanical set design.

The movie is over, and fans have been on IMDB to give their own evaluations, and most of them give a perfect score of 10! For three days, Inception's IMDB score remained high, stuck at 9.9 for a full week! This is an unprecedented score that surpasses all previous films.

Xu Chenjun's friends also stood up to help him promote, especially Hugh Jackman, Justin Bieber, Taylor, Robert Downey Jr. and other world-class superstars have expressed their opinions, and they are full of praise for Inception.

Of course, there are many other movie stars, but no one can deny the power of Inception!

Xu Chenjun conquered all the people who like emotional movies with his extremely delicate emotional handling, and conquered the people who like science fiction movies with an effect that is not inferior to Avatar, so the box office of Inception broke the Avatar record without any suspense! It only took two days to break through the box office of 100 million! What a staggering number.

In one week, it exceeded 500 million, leaving Avatar far behind! This is far beyond Xu Chenjun's expectations, once again he thought that as long as he surpassed Avatar, it would be a big success, but he didn't expect fans to be so crazy! An almost legendary number, definitely enough to go down in the history of American cinema!

surpassed the most classic movie Godfather in IMDB's score, and many fans of the Godfather have become fans of Inception, because Xu Chenjun once said that his favorite movie is The Godfather, whether it is The Godfather 1 or The Godfather 2, as long as it is his fans, it is clear that this time Inception surpasses the Godfather, which is an honor for the fans of the Godfather!

Xu Chenjun proved one thing, that is, although the godfather is classic, it can be surpassed! Xu Chenjun's identity as a native of the United States does not cause disgust, because there are not a few Chinese in the United States, and with the status of recent years, the status of Chinese in the United States is not low, although it is far less than Jews, but it is almost the same as ordinary whites.

After all, the United States is a country composed of many different ethnic groups, and now the status of various races is actually similar, but most Chinese take it for granted that the yellow race in the United States has a low status.

There may be a small number of radicals, but such people in the United States as a whole account for about 0.5 percent at most, and the impact is not great. Most people have a spirit of freedom and equality, which is why many people are willing to immigrate to the United States.

Xu Chenjun has once again become the topic of the world with Inception, no matter where he will be seen, the news headlines are him, and the magazine cover is him. Even the original director Christopher Nolan's limelight was overshadowed by him, but Christopher Nolan won't say much, it can be said that without Xu Chenjun, there would be no success of this movie.

The film that the two worked together to complete will always be the pride of Christopher Nolan!

An extremely complex but fascinating sci-fi dream journey. - The Hollywood Reporter

It's like "The Matrix" plus "New York metaphors," with its anti-physics exploration, brilliant action scenes, impactful emotions, and Leonardo's astonishing performances, all of which are addictive, and this is a whole new frontier of Nolan and Jason cinema. - "Empire"

"The Foundation" is a very clever film, rich in details, intricate narrative, and takes people into a subconscious labyrinth. - "Variety"

A dream that ends in a hurry in physical time is extended into a long dream with no end in time and wanton galloping in space, which also creates a thrilling plot tension.

There are also kung fu scenes of Xu Chenjun showing his skills in the film and multiple gun battle scenes, which brought Xu Chenjun a lot of popularity again! The kung fu shots in the film make people who like kung fu enjoy the movie even more. Twitter already has a huge number of followers, and now he has surpassed Justin Bieber to become the world's No. 1 person!

Even Chinese compare Xu Chenjun with Jackie Chan and Jet Li, and now Xu Chenjun has surpassed Jackie Chan to become the first person among Chinese in terms of film income and awards!

Many people know that Xu Chenjun is the absolute investor in Inception this time, and he pays every penny and every dime, so the income of the movie, except for the funds paid to the cinema and the crew members, basically all fell into Xu Chenjun's pocket. However, Xu Chenjun doesn't take money very seriously. It was also because of the money problem that he made a bet with Director Nolan......

"I'll tell you! Christopher, take the money obediently. ”

"Jason, people don't think they have enough money, why are you just the other way around! It's a lot of money, do you know what is the net income of five percent of Inception now? If this trend continues, it will definitely not be a problem to exceed $2.5 billion! That's more than 100 million dollars! It's not RMB, it's not South Korea, you just gave it away? ”

Christopher? Nolan looked at the small contract paper in Xu Chenjun's hand very depressed.

"It's not for you alone, it's not for the entire crew, anyway, I'm not short of money."

"Okay man, I'm willing to gamble and lose, the gap between this person and man is so big that I curse God's injustice, you little bastard, I'll help you collect this money first, if the box office doesn't exceed 3 billion, I'll pay it back to you, how about it?" Christopher? Nolan made his bet again.

"This is not good, it was a gamble at the beginning, but if you can surpass Avatar, you have to accept 1% of the box office revenue, and the remaining 4% will be distributed to other members of the crew, which is much more money than you make by directing yourself! He also said that I hated a lot of money, and neither did you. Don't talk nonsense, when I'm a friend, take it. Xu Chenjun's tone was very resolute, and there was an undeniable momentum on his body.

Nolan looked at Xu Chenjun's serious expression, and reluctantly continued, "Okay, I can't tell you, I was already very satisfied if I could have made this movie, and I didn't have any requirements for the box office, this is one of my dreams." I feel so guilty that you helped me make it happen, and now you still have to give me money......"

"Shit, I said big director, what are you pretending to be in your head, honestly take the money and go chic, don't keep dangling in front of my eyes, annoying people know no." Xu Chenjun pretended to be impatient.

LEO stepped out at the right time, with a charming smile on the corner of his mouth, "Let's go, don't you know Jason's personality yet?" You don't want to accept me, if you don't know, you still think you're Chinese! Hans Zimmer and Varyy Pfister have been looking forward to this for a long time. Hans's soundtrack and Varley's cinematography are all indispensable, so you should take the money. ”

"I'm not so affectionate, I'm in for a treat tonight, and I won't go home if I'm not drunk!"

Christopher? Nolan said very proudly.

Seeing this, Xu Chenjun couldn't help but show a smile, January is Xu Chenjun's busier month, taking the Inception team back and forth between countries around the world, various famous buildings around the world have appeared in Inception, and the location of these buildings is also the place where Xu Chenjun's team arrives.

Shuttling around the world made the members of the Inception team a little tired, but they all seemed very excited.

In just one month, Xu Chenjun added $2 billion to his account, and Xu Chenjun was not very excited about this, but was excited because of the worship of Xu Chenjun by people around the world. Wherever they went, the Inception team was warmly welcomed by fans, and Xu Chenjun had an extra title in the mouths of fans and fans: Son of God.
