Weekend! On the day after the first week of the box office war, all the employees of Dream Entertainment, New Line Pictures and Warners were watching the North American box office anytime and anywhere!

""Sparta" is 6 million, which is a good result, but "Harry Potter" is 8 million, and "The Lord of the Rings" is 13.5 million!" - Two o'clock in the afternoon.

"Incredible! It's incredible! "The Lord of the Rings" is already 15 million, "Harry Potter" has also reached 10 million, and "Sparta" is only more than 7 million, China is vulnerable! "Sparta" doesn't know if the road can hold on! —six o'clock in the afternoon.

"Oh my God! The box office of "Sparta" suddenly exploded, and it was as high as 10 million! "—eight o'clock in the evening.

"Oh God! Bunker up! "Sparta" soared 18 million at the box office! —nine o'clock in the evening.

Under the public opinion concocted by Yi Feiyang, he firmly believed that supporting "Sparta" was to support the United States, and watching "Sparta" was to rescue the victims of the World Trade Center.

In this "frenzied" state, "Sparta" was unstoppable, and by ten o'clock in the evening of the weekend, it was surpassing strongly, blinding the eyes of many people.

"How is that possible? How can it be?! This is the person from the New Line Film Company yelling, "Cheating! Fantasy Entertainment must be cheating! Our Lord of the Rings will never lose, yes, never! ”

"We can't believe what we're seeing! What's going on? Why did Americans flock to the movie theater to watch "Sparta" as if by magic? What exactly did China Yi do to them?! This was Warner Bros. consternation.

……

"But what if Sparta suddenly becomes popular? With two hours left, our Lord of the Rings box office has reached 16 million. A total of 57 million in a week! It's not comparable to the so-called "Sparta"! Five days and seven days. China easy. I don't know what else you have to be proud of! After calming down, Mr. Bob, the boss of New Line Pictures, became hideous for the first time.

As for Warner, they don't think about it anymore, Zhilu Dao can only sit firmly in the third seat at most this week, and now, move a small bench and wait to watch the show.

"Is it the new line "The Lord of the Rings" that won, or is it fantasy entertainment? I'm looking forward to it! —Warner.

……

There are only two hours left!

Two hours!

Enough to do?!

Play a few rounds of mahjong. Have a little drink? Or find a beautiful woman to have fun in bed?!

Therefore, in such a short period of time, no one believed that "Sparta" would be able to turn defeat into victory, because everything seemed to be a foregone conclusion.

"China Yi, this time it's a loss!"

"Alas, miraculous Jan, no longer magical!"

"It's okay for you to scold me, in fact, I still expect China to fail!"

"yes, who made him always work miracles. It's even more surprising to fail once in a while! ”

……

All sent out conclusions.

"Humph! It's not over yet! Although Yi Feiyang is nervous, he is still confident, because there is still the last gear after ten o'clock. This file is beneficial to "Sparta", after all, there are more young people who like to watch "The Lord of the Rings", and even many, many of them are students, so they should go home and sleep at this time, right?

And "Sparta" is different, this drama is aimed at adults, it is a large part of the audience who likes action and excitement, history and flesh and blood, as long as they are willing to walk in and watch, then everything still has a chance!

Yes, there's still a chance!

A chance to turn over!

……

The clock is constantly moving!

The second hand kills time.

Ding dong!

Eleven o'clock, fifty o'clock!

Today's box office statistics are finally out-

"The Lord of the Rings" is still crazy, smashing 16.5 million at the box office, and the total box office has reached an astonishing $57.5 million!

New Line broke its own record, and "The Lord of the Rings" became one of the highest-grossing first-week films of all time in North America.

Looking back at "Sparta" is ...... Twenty-three million!

That's right! That's 23 million, plus the 35 million accumulated before, the total box office has reached 58 million US dollars!

Fifty-eight million!

Fifty-seven million and a half million!

At the last moment, "Sparta" really defeated "The Lord of the Rings" and achieved a jaw-dropping and gorgeous counterattack!!

……

"Boss, the box office in North America came out in the first week, "The Lord of the Rings" 57.5 million, "Sparta" 58 million! 500,000 higher than the other party, we won! "Fat Jack was so excited that he almost jumped!

"Ha Luha did win, what a fluke!" Yi Feiyang smiled, in a good mood.

Next to him, Dures touched a cold sweat, "It's difficult!" ”

Fat man Gao Jiabao: "I said earlier that Ah Yang would win, this kid is a magician!" ”

Rabbit Bill: "Don't be an afterthought, I've always been crazy about bosses!" ”

"Lift the boss up, yes! Victory! Victory! ”

The whole fantasy entertainment was plunged into a carnival.

……

The next day, the North American weekly box office rankings were officially released-

The first, produced by Dream Entertainment, directed by Yi Feiyang "Spartan 300 Warriors", with a box office of 58 million US dollars.

second place, produced by New Line Pictures, directed by Peter Jackson "The Lord of the Rings", box office 57.5 million US dollars.

The third place, produced by Warner Pictures and directed by Chris Columbus, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", grossed 49.37 million US dollars.

……

"Oh my God!" Media critics, filmmakers, and movie fans and audiences all sighed when they saw this latest North American box office list: "Wow~~"

In the past, it seemed so ridiculous to say that "Sparta" might be Yi Feiyang's magical tomb, but now the result is soaring into the sky, directly making everyone's jaws drop!

"Oh my God, it's incredible!"

"Another new miracle!"

"Worthy of the Son of God!"

……

In the midst of everyone's admiration, Yi Feiyang actually ridiculed the new line of "The Lord of the Rings" on the official website as a villain: "Blockbusters don't necessarily win." It doesn't have to be a blockbuster that will win! Wearing the Lord of the Rings doesn't have to be kings. A true king doesn't have to wear a magic ring! ”

Tongue twister-like teasing. directly made Mr. Bob, the boss of the new line company, red-faced and depressed.

Winning the box office in the first week, coupled with a good reputation, the staying power of "Sparta" is very strong, and the box office of more than 60 million in the second week, and "The Lord of the Rings" is not far behind, and has been chasing hard, given the power of blockbusters. has increased a lot of theaters, especially in the overseas box office, the overseas demand for this kind of magic blockbuster has made many countries in Europe, Asia and other countries continue to perform, and the total overseas box office directly surpassed "Sparta" to become the hegemon.

As a result, a very wonderful situation has been formed: in North America, "Sparta" has become a well-deserved box office king, winning the North American weekly box office champion for three consecutive weeks; In the overseas region, "The Lord of the Rings" and "Harry Potter" are very popular, especially "The Lord of the Rings". It is even more difficult to shake the hegemony.

At the end of the next Christmas schedule, there are a few other movies to be released. But because of the two gold-sucking monsters of "The Lord of the Rings" and "Harry Potter", plus the existence of the anti-heaven monster of "Sparta", they are basically all cannon fodder!

In the end, the Christmas box office war ended, and the box office performance statistics: the fantasy entertainment movie "Sparta" totaled more than 730 million US dollars worldwide, and the North American box office was more than 480 million, and it was the first week box office champion in North America.

And the new line film "The Lord of the Rings" is even stronger, with a total of more than 810 million worldwide, but the North American box office is unprecedentedly not as much as "Sparta", more than 430 million, and unfortunately lost "Sparta".

As for Warner Bros.'s "Harry Potter", the global box office is 670 million, and North America is 320 million, becoming the third of the three.

The reason for this result is also because of the different types of films.

"The Lord of the Rings" is, in the final analysis, a special effects blockbuster to see the scene, which is very suitable for the appetite of overseas audiences.

And "Spartan 300 Warriors" is different, although the war scenes are also filmed very vigorously, but the storyline only satisfies the psychology of American audiences, and the reason why Americans watch this drama is mainly for "patriotism"!

Now, the box office war is finally over.

"Spartan 300 Warriors" only invested 25 million US dollars, but received a box office of more than 700 million, compared with the hundreds of millions of investment in "The Lord of the Rings" and finally obtained a box office of 800 million, it is completely possible to apply for the Guinness World Records. Except for 1999's "Ghost Eye", which can be compared with one of them, there is nothing else that can be compared with Yi Feiyang's movie.

In this regard, the film critic also laughed: "This movie by China Yi has earned enough eyeballs, earned enough dollars, and countless popularity." ”

For Yi Feiyang personally, he just broke through himself again.

As for the Oscar Award, Director's Guild Award and the like, Yi Feiyang is not very pursuing it now, if he can impact it, then he will impact it, and if he can't get it, Yi Feiyang doesn't care. Anyway, on the list of winners of this year's Golden Raspberry Award, Yi Feiyang's name will definitely not appear.

This point is going to disappoint many Yi Feiyang's opponents.

And with the flow of income and the return of funds, the remuneration of the actors is also in place for the first time, although at the beginning, Mel Gibson starred in friendship, as long as the salary of 10 million US dollars, but what should be given still has to be given, Yi Feiyang generously paid Mel Gibson 30 million, Clinton 10 million, Stormy 7 million, Jason Statham 3 million......

After that, there are other personnel, bonuses, salaries, all in place.

The movie was successfully released, and the company's employees were also very happy, and the final ending was happy.

Being able to win such a situation, Yi Feiyang is also very satisfied.

Today, at the celebration party of "Sparta", Yi Feiyang, Gibson, Clinton, Stormy, Statham, and even old Max and so on were all very happy, and even Anne Hathaway, who didn't drink alcohol, drank two glasses for the first time!

"Yi, I'll also participate in the investment of the next movie, okay?" Although he earned a salary of 30 million US dollars, compared with the box office of more than 700 million, Mel Jebson always felt that he had suffered a big loss, and at this moment, he said to Yi Feiyang while he was drinking.

"Ha Lu Ha is not good, now the funds are enough!" Yi Feiyang looked at Gibson with some amusement.

"You make me so sad!"

Suddenly, there was laughter.

"Yi, I'm really curious about how your head grows, a movie and a classic! And the box office is still so good, even this kind of movie can achieve such a high box office, which is completely unreasonable! Clinton also laughed and said funny.

"His existence is inherently unreasonable!" The amorous Stormy Fei gave Yi Feiyang a wink.

"Huh? Does it make sense to exist? Yi Feiyang was stunned, indeed! His own existence is not reasonable, if he hadn't crossed over, would he still have these? I don't know what kind of butterfly effect Lu Dao will bring because of his sudden appearance?

All in all, "Spartan 300 Warriors" finally ended perfectly, leaving only a few trivial things to deal with.

From the outside world's point of view, the Christmas film company war has come to an end, but for Yi Feiyang, this is just the beginning.

According to Yi Feiyang's temper, I will return what others give me!

And this time, his target is New Line Pictures! (To be continued......)
