Chapter 718: The Doomed Feng Xiaogang (II)
The final box office of the movie "Night Banquet", if there is no Men Jie, but starring Ge You, can reach such a figure of 142 million, which is really huge.
You must know that the movie "No Thieves in the World" directed by Feng Xiaogang the year before last and the movie "Kung Fu" filmed by Menjie was only about 12,000 at the final box office.
After two years, Feng Xiaogang relied on the movie "Night Banquet" to increase this record by 22 million at the box office.
Such a number, even if it is not much different from the blockbuster "Kung Fu" directed by Zhou Xingchi and spent an incomparably large amount of money to create.
If it was really last year, such a box office might be enough for Feng Xiaogang to dominate the box office record of Chinese movies in the entire 2006.
But alas......
Feng Xiaogang met Zhang Yimou in 2006!
The box office of the movie "The City Full of Golden Armor" has successfully reached a figure of 15 million on the first day, which is 120% of the movie "Night Banquet", and in the statistics of four days and a week, it has directly reached such a figure of 96 million, which is 142% of the movie "Night Banquet", and the overall speed of the box office is extremely fast.
The final box office of the movie "The City Full of Golden Armor" reached a full 291 million!
This is only the box office in mainland China!
If you add the box office of Xiangjiang, Taiwan Island and other places, the final box office of the movie "Full of Golden Armor" will easily break through the 300 million mark!
And at the same time, the movie "The City Full of Golden Armor" has also achieved a lot of results in the United States, and in the record of the King system, this movie finally succeeded in winning 6.57 million box office in the United States. If converted into soft sister coins, there are about thirty or forty million.
At the same time, the total box office of the film outside the United States has also reached 72 million US dollars, if converted into soft girl coins......
The total box office of 300 million soft sister coins is afraid that it will directly double such a data here!
Although for a while, Menjie was a little unclear about how much the global box office of the movie "The City Full of Golden Armor" reached, but Menjie was also very clear in his heart, and the approximate figure had reached six or seven billion soft girl coins!
Compared with the movie "Night Banquet", the box office result of 142 million that could have dominated the entire Chinese box office list in 2006. Such a number is several times that of the movie "Night Banquet"!
At this point, there is no comparison between the two movies!
Of course, this is not to say that there is a gap between Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Yimou. is getting bigger infinitely, and it can only be said that it is the movie "The City is Full of Golden Armor". It was completely Zhang Yimou's eruption after several years of dormancy. It is the most brilliant milestone of his career that all his directing ability has exploded, surpassing the usual state, and it can be said that in this movie, Zhang Yimou has exerted 200% of his ability. Or even a higher number.
And the movie "Night Banquet" directed by Feng Xiaogang can only be said to have brought out all of Feng Xiaogang's directing abilities, that's all!
And between these two films. At least in terms of investment, there is a huge gap!
The total investment of the movie "Night Banquet", according to the Tianwang system, is about 20 million US dollars, and when converted into soft sister coins, it is only more than 100 million.
Such a number is indeed very huge, but the movie "Night Banquet" directed by Feng Xiaogang did not make the Huayi brothers lose money because of this.
With the investment of more than 100 million soft sister coins, Feng Xiaogang has basically reached such a number only by virtue of the box office in the mainland of China, and if you add the box office of Xiangjiang, Taiwan Island, and even Singapore, South Korea, etc., it is also a very large number.
And according to Menjie's speculation, with the Huayi brothers' temperament, they said that the total investment of the movie "Night Banquet" is 20 million US dollars, but in fact, it is ......
It is absolutely impossible to reach such a number, at best, it is already a very incredible thing to be able to reach 15 million US dollars, so with the movie "Night Banquet", Huayi Brothers can still make a lot of money.
And the movie "The City Full of Golden Armor", the reason why it was able to achieve more ungodly results is also because the investment in this movie is very huge, and it has reached a full 26000000 soft girl coins!
The investment of 260 million soft sister coins, even if it contains a certain amount of water, Menjie believes that it will definitely not be too little, at least it can reach more than 200 million, which is definitely more than twice the investment of the movie "Night Banquet".
Even if the total investment of the movie "The City Full of Golden Armor" is less and the total investment of the movie "Night Banquet" is larger, it is not impossible for the investment gap between the two to triple!
are all movies directed by China's top directors, among which Zhang Yimou first broke out at the level, and then reached two to three times the total investment of the movie "Night Banquet", if he can't get the incomparably ungodly box office, it will be too insulting to Zhang Yimou's directing ability, right? !
Moreover, in addition to these hard things that are closely related to the movie itself, Zhang Yimou has an aura that no one can surpass, or even rival it!
That's ......
In 2008, the identity of the chief director of the Huaxia Yanjing Games!
In the whole of China, such as Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang, there are many top directors in addition to the two of them.
These people have shot countless good movies in their lives, and they have been sought after by countless people, either commercial films or literary films, all of which had a huge and far-reaching impact at that time.
But their level is limited to one movie, at best, it can make this movie go out of the door of China and enter the big stage of the world!
But now......
In the 2008 Olympic Games, China's successful bid for the Olympic Games, and the right to host this session was handed over to Huaxia!
When that day comes, even dignitaries and businessmen from other countries will flock to China to visit the grand ceremony of the world that is seen once in four years.
Huaxia handed over this extremely glorious opportunity to Zhang Yimou and appointed Zhang Yimou as the chief director of the 2008 China Yanjing Olympic Games!
What a glorious honor is this?
Originally, the movies directed by Zhang Yimou were at best better shot and broadcast abroad.
And this time, it is Zhang Yimou on his own territory, with the strength of the country, to create a grand ceremony in the world, at that time, all the countries and people in the world will focus on the ceremony directed by Zhang Yimou!
On the one hand, it is such a rare opportunity to be able to mobilize the power of the country and let Zhang Yimou personally create a grand ceremony, even for the top director Zhang Yimou, it is also a very rare opportunity, which can definitely make his directing ability to a higher level.
At the same time, it is precisely because of such an opportunity that Zhang Yimou's name can truly resound in the world!
How many people in the entire world can use the power of the country to direct an Olympic Games by themselves?
Even if it is held every four years, each session will be handed over to the top directors in the entertainment industry, and there will not be too many in the entire world!
After all, the existence of a top director is basically an existence that is over half a hundred years old, just like Zhang Yimou this year, who is 57 years old.
Even if he can still be active in the entertainment industry after 20 years, those 20 years will only be able to create five people.
And more countries, even if they host the Olympic Games, may not let their top directors direct, and hand over such an important work to a non-political officer? Governors.
In this way, in the entire world, the chief director of the Olympic Games who can be active will not be more than three people in the unity!
Such an honor naturally made Zhang Yimou, who was originally on the stage of the world and was not very famous, instantly become the target of the entertainment circle of the entire world world!
After becoming famous and paying attention, its own strength exploded, coupled with a total investment of nearly 300 million soft sister coins, what reason is there for Zhang Yimou's movie "The City is Full of Golden Armor", which will make people not pay attention?
There is no doubt that after the movie "The City Full of Golden Armor" comes out, even in the face of the "chief director of the Olympic Games", there will be countless people in the entire world who will choose to watch it.
The people of China naturally unconditionally support the 'chief director of the Yanjing Olympics' and choose to spend money to watch movies, while people abroad also want to know what level the chief director of the Yanjing Olympics in China will reach two years later.
This year's Olympic Games, whether it is necessary or not, go and see!
Naturally, at the very beginning, the fame of the movie "The City Full of Golden Armor" was lost.
And after that, with the huge investment, as well as Zhang Yimou's strong directing ability, Zhou Yunfa, and Gong Li's superb performances, he will definitely be able to earn a very high-quality reputation for the movie "The City is Full of Golden Armor".
Fame, reputation, quality......
Everything, the movie "The City Full of Golden Armor" will have, how can this movie not be a success?!
Ay!
Looking at Feng Xiaogang, who was still talking and laughing, he couldn't imagine that soon after, the movie he directed would be beaten by Zhang Yimou, Menjie couldn't help but sigh slightly.
"It can't be said that Feng Xiaogang is inferior to Zhang Yimou, it can only be said that Zhang Yimou in the past two years is completely a supreme existence in the Chinese film industry, and no one can shake his status!
At this time, Feng Xiaogang, who chose to fight with Zhang Yimou, was ......
Doomed to tragedy! (To be continued......)
