Chapter 221: The Prologue of the Times!
January 2nd.
It was late at night.
Zhao Sicheng was a little angry.
Just today, when he walked into Fox, he clearly felt that the attitude of Fox and his whole body seemed to have changed.
Many people are a little perfunctory when they see him, and even Tom, who has a good relationship with him, wants to say something after seeing him, but finally wants to stop talking.
At the same time, although the resources for "Fatal Crisis" are available, they are far from as sufficient as he imagined.
It seems that after the premiere, Fox began to care less about "Fatal Crisis".
Although the premiere box office is not as good as "Chainsaw", the figure of three million dollars is not bad, and if it is operated in the future, isn't it a problem for Lao Mei and Huaxia Overseas to break 100 million at the box office?
The feeling of disparity naturally made him feel angry!
Of course, at the same time, he felt very unfair, obviously he felt that he had worked hard, but fate did not seem to be on his side!
Open the Internet of Lao Mei.
It's all about Saw news and the outpouring of anger from some minorities.
Not only that, but some small-scale protests on "human rights" have also taken place in some cities in Laos and the United States, which have become beautiful scenery one after another.
The major theaters in the United States are crowded with people, and many people go into the movie theaters just to see why this "Chainsaw" has such a big impact!
"Why does everyone know that he is hype, obviously the hype is very indiscriminate and false, why would anyone be fooled?"
"Why did I debunk his hype on the Internet, but no one recognized me? I'm telling the truth, "Saw" is a movie that maliciously scandalizes the United States......"
"What the hell is going on!"
"Are you not happy with the movie "Fatal Crisis"?"
In the room, he browsed all kinds of news about "Chainsaw" over and over again, and saw that the popularity was getting more and more terrifying, and when "Chainsaw" actually entered the top five of Lao Mei's movie list in January, he was in a daze.
Another two hours passed, and in the early morning of January 3, the assistant Xiao Su knocked on the door of the room.
"What's the box office?"
"We've increased the box office a bit, we're four million."
"Oh, not bad!"
"What about Saw Horror?"
"Eight million!"
"What!"
"Eight million, the popularity of "Chainsaw" is too terrifying, many theaters saw the madness of this movie and began to add films, but at present, the movie tickets for "Chainsaw" are still in a state where it is difficult to find a ticket......"
Zhao Sicheng took over the box office data, and his hand trembled slightly.
He couldn't believe it, he never dreamed that the movie "Saw" would grossing twice as much as his "Fatal Crisis" the next day!
He can accept that he is suppressed by the data of "Chainsaw", after all, the current popularity of this movie is simply scary, but he can't accept that he is crushed like this by "Chainsaw".
His face was blue and purple for a while!
He even had the feeling that this Zhou Yang was stepping on his shoulders and climbing up.
After the assistant left, Zhao Sicheng's mobile phone rang.
"Tom?"
"Mr. Zhao, at the beginning, you should have scheduled the movie "Fatal Crisis" to February! Mr. Gipps is now being scolded by the company's shareholders...... said that he missed such a hit movie......"
On the phone, Tom's voice was very awkward, and although he was patiently talking to him, his emotions seemed to be mixed with a little anger.
"Mr. Tom, I don't think it's my fault, it's that the other party's marketing methods are too disgusting, and I didn't know at the time that the assistant director of the movie "Saw Horror" was Christian, Christian just won the Cannes Palme d'Or last year, and now he is very popular, and Fox has not given me enough resources, as long as I give more resources, my "Fatal Crisis" will definitely surpass "Saw Horror".
Zhao Sicheng did not panic in the face of Tom, who was mixed with anger, but explained very seriously.
Subsequently, he added: "Mr. Tom, Lao Mei is just one of our battlefields, our real battlefield is Huaxia, you should know my status in the Huaxia circle, you should know my appeal in Huaxia, and Huaxia is a big market...... We all know that the movie "Chainsaw" will not be able to enter China, and I dare to guarantee that "Fatal Crisis" will definitely have more local advantages than blockbusters like "End of the World"! ”
Tom on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time before sighing: "Mr. Zhao, I believe in you very much, I hope what you say is true!" ”
"I'm very honest, I never brag, and I won't lie to you, I'll call Huaxia right now to confirm the schedule of "Fatal Crisis"!"
"Good! Let's release it as soon as possible, otherwise Hollywood will have a lot of blockbusters coming over next, and ...... then."
"I understand!" Zhao Sicheng nodded as if grasping some life-saving straw, and then asked again: "The propaganda ...... of "Fatal Crisis" in Lao Mei"
"Don't worry, although Mr. Gipps was scolded by the higher-ups, he will not be angry with "Fatal Crisis" because of this, and the resources that should be given will still be given!"
"Thank you!"
Tom's phone call was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for Zhao Sicheng, which made his originally uneasy mood settle down in an instant.
Subsequently, he took out the movie as soon as possible and made a phone call to the Directors Association in Huaxia.
"Hey, President Feng, I'm at a critical moment now, can you let the boss put "Fatal Crisis" in line as soon as possible?"
"Yes, I want to release it after the painting of "Jurassic" in January......"
"Okay, I understand!"
“……”
…………………………
"Oh God!"
"It's not true, who can tell me it's not true?"
"$13 million at the box office in two days? Oh my God, this movie is just a lot of money, it's amazing, it's amazing! ”
"Friends, to tell you an even more shocking news, just now, yes, just now, I learned the detailed cost data of Saw Horror!"
"How much does Saw cost, hurry up and announce it!"
"If the number of reviews exceeds 10,000, I will announce the detailed cost of this movie, I dare to swear by God, you will be shocked when you see the detailed cost of this movie!"
"Fuck, hurry up!"
"I can't wait to put the sack on your head and beat you hard, hurry up!"
"I commented, hurry!"
“……”
In two days, it grossed $13 million, and it was a relatively niche horror film.
When they saw this data, the old American film industry boiled again, they were amazed by the amazing appeal of this movie in reality, and even more marveled at the crazier box office of this movie!
On the morning of January 3.
The true cost of "Saw Horror" was officially announced on the Internet amid a burst of exclamations.
The total cost is $300,000!
Yes!
This movie, which set off a craze in Lao Mei and went crazy, has a total cost of only $300,000!
After seeing this data, Lao Mei's group of filmmakers were shocked out of their bodies and were taken away by Satan.
However!
Just when they felt that the data was staggering enough......
At noon on January 3, Zhou Yang and Christian held a rumor clarification conference under Warner's arrangement.
"A lot of friends are curious about the crew of our film, and in fact, there were people who were injured during the filming, but no one was in danger of life, and no one was seriously injured......"
“……”
"At the same time, the real cost prediction for our Saw on the Internet is actually wrong! Me and Anthony and Charlotte. Sally, Andy and others took a share of the box office of the movie and did not get paid, in fact, the film cost a total of $200,000 from filming to the end of shooting...... Well, maybe a little less...... At least the expenditure on the crew of "Lamb" is $200,000! ”
"In fact, when I saw Saw Horror, I thought it was very likely to be another milestone in the history of Hollywood horror films, second only to The Night of the Living Dead!"
“……”
The video of the clarification press conference was seen by netizens on the Internet.
Netizens' eyes widened as they listened to Christian's words at the clarification press conference.
When he had heard this, his mouth opened, and they were so shocked that they felt like they had seen a dear God.
"Oh God!"
"Two hundred thousand, thirteen million dollars......"
"This, this, this, this ...... God"
"It's crazy, this Huaxia director, it's really crazy!"
Subsequently, more revelations about "Chainsaw" raged like crazy on the Internet......
…………………………
"Saw Horror" ravaged the Internet and the film industry in the United States.
Some people are carnivaling, pushing this movie like crazy, and some people are marveling, marveling at the miracle that another miracle has been created in the history of American movies......
At the same time, someone feels the responsibility!
Olsen made his way through the crowd and into the movie theater under the protection of a group of security guards.
He wasn't interested in all the crazy craze on the internet, and at the moment, he seemed a little heavy...
After watching "Saw Horror", he was silent for a long time, his expression looked heavier, and several people accompanying him kept following some words in his ears, some people had laptops, and it seemed that they were following him something...
He walked out.
Standing in front of a movie theater in Los Angeles, I breathed a deep sigh of relief.
Subsequently!
He held a press conference for the first time...
"I feel that our country needs a leading figure. Leaders who really do things! ”
"I announce that I will run for president of the United States this year, and I will become the first dark-skinned president of the United States! I hope you will support me! ”
“……”
No one could have imagined!
The prologue of an era was completely torn apart with the movie "Chainsaw"!
