Chapter 232: Swept!
"We are witnessing the beginning of an era, and the king of Hollywood horrors, James Brown. Bont has created an era of its own......"
"Hollywood movies have set a new record!"
"The total box office of 530 million, how can it be broken? What to break with? β
"Ranked first, second, third, fourth...... It's all Hollywood movies......"
"Among the top ten Chinese movies at the box office, there is only one "Hero" ......"
ββ¦β¦β
At one o'clock in the morning on January 23.
In the Chinese film circle, countless filmmakers did not sleep, but stayed on the Internet, staring closely at the movie "Jurassic".
Some exclaimed, some were indignant, some let out a long sigh in their powerlessness, and some were very excited, feeling that they were witnesses of a film era......
"Jurassic" is drawn!
This Hollywood blockbuster that dominated China finally ended with a box office of 530 million, which became a new milestone for Chinese cinema and a new milestone for world cinema.
China is 530 million, and the world box office is 800 million US dollars!
The astonishing data shocked the eyes of filmmakers, although they had predicted that "Jurassic" would definitely reach this data, but when it was really witnessed, the emotions were still irresistibly complicated.
After a long time in a trance, they watched another "Spartan Warrior" that had been released for a month!
This is the successor to Jurassic.
The tense emotions of the Chinese filmmakers were slightly relaxed.
Although the box office of this movie is ferocious, it does not show such amazing dominance as "Superman" and "Jurassic", a month after its release, the box office fell by 5 million, from the perspective of data performance, this movie will probably reach 350 million, 20 million stronger than the peak of Chinese local films "Hero", but it is not as good as "Superman" and "Jurassic", two phenomenal movies.
However, although it is relaxed, the inexplicable humiliation lingers in the hearts of many filmmakers.
They saw the leaderboard.
After so many years, the top ten local films in the history of Chinese films at the box office have gone from the original one to only one movie.
"Overlord" fell out of the ranks, and "Hero" made it to the list......
With one increase and one decrease, Chinese movies seem to have fallen into a state of stagnation!
"Wait!"
"The box office of "The End of the World" is not as ferocious as imagined!"
"The premiere box office of "The End of the World" is not as high as "Superman"!"
"Oh my God, is this really fake?"
"Really, the Chinese premiere box office of "The End of the World" is only 15 million yuan, which is 2 million less than "Superman"!"
"Isn't the grass still fierce!"
"Nope! "The End of the World" is far lower than I expected, I originally expected this movie to be on the same level as "Jurassic", and the box office of this movie in Hollywood is not much worse than "Jurassic"! That's 11 million dollars! "Jurassic", if I remember correctly, is 12 million dollars! β
"Yes!"
"However, the Chinese box office of "Jurassic" is 23 million US dollars, and "The End of the World" is only 15 million yuan!!"
"I'm grass, the Chinese version of "Chainsaw", the box office is 12 million!"
"This movie is so powerful?"
"Yes!"
ββ¦β¦β
January 23rd.
This is destined to be a sleepless day in the Chinese film industry!
The box office of "The End of the World" has made many filmmakers unbelievable, and there is a sense of huge gap......
They once predicted that the box office of the movie "The End of the World" would exceed at least 20 million, and even infinitely close to "Jurassic", after all, the advance tickets for "The End of the World" are terrifying!
However, when the box office actually came out, they were dumbfounded!
Fifteen million RMB!
The box office of this Hollywood blockbuster "The End of the World", which was once pinned on by all filmmakers in China, was only 15 million yuan!
They were unbelievable and at the same time, they felt incredible, and when they saw the box office of "Chainsaw" in China, the incredible emotions were even stronger.
They guessed a very crazy possibility!
That was the box office of "The End of the World", which was diverted by "Saw Horror".
The two movies have similar schedules, which is destined to make many fans who watch "Saw Horror" unable to watch "The End of the World"!
Therefore, many fans of "Armageddon" seem to be weighing it and finally choose to watch "Saw Horror" first, and then "Armageddon......
As a result, when I watched it, I left "The End of the World" behind, and when I came home from the movie theater, I didn't even think about it.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
In the early hours of January, with a hint of chill.
Zhao Sicheng's body was trembling.
Materials.
Shows the box office information of the movie that premiered on January 22......
He was stunned, incredulous, and felt that everything was too absurd and exaggerated, and finally, after confirming that this was the reality, he suddenly felt as if all the power around him had been drained.
He bowed his head.
"How so!"
"How is it possible, I don't believe it, how is it possible!"
"This ......"
"Impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible!"
ββ¦β¦β
In the office, Zhao Sicheng muttered to himself, and he finally sat on the ground, staring at the brightly lit streets in the distance.
He felt a sense of frustration that he had never felt before.
He originally thought that "Saw Horror" hit the streets!
After all, under the squeeze of blockbusters like "The End of the World", it is strange that "Chainsaw" is not crushed into scum, not only does he think so, but even everyone in the Huaxia Directors Guild thinks so, even if he knows that the advance ticket results of "Chainsaw" are very good, some people still think it doesn't matter......
However......
The reality was extremely cruel, and it slapped him in the face hard, pumping him painfully, and despair was surging like a tide, permeating his body.
At the same time, a strong feeling of unwillingness and jealousy hit his heart again, and in an instant, he began to become a little lost again.
This mixed mood lasted until four o'clock in the morning.
At four o'clock in the morning, his cell phone rang.
"Tom!"
The "......" call was from Tom of Fox Company, but after the phone was connected, the other party was silent.
"Tom? Is there a sound? Can you hear the sound? Zhao Sicheng was suddenly uneasy, and subconsciously hurriedly asked a few words again.
"Mr. Zhao......" Tom spoke again, but the emotion in his voice was extremely low, and this low voice made Zhao Sicheng even more uneasy.
"I'm afraid the bet can't be completed, you should listen to Mr. Gipps and postpone Deadly Crisis until February!" Tom's deep voice became very disappointed when he said this, and Zhao Sicheng could feel the other party's frustration across the phone.
"What's wrong? Tom. Zhao Sicheng felt that his throat was very dry, and he tried to keep calm, but his voice was still trembling.
"The release of "The End of the World" has further squeezed the schedule of "Fatal Crisis", resulting in today's box office of only one million US dollars, and the attitude of the theater side towards "Fatal Crisis" has been on the verge of being drawn at any time...... There is no hope! β
"How many! And what about the total overseas box office? There is hope! β
"The total box office of the world's 23 countries is 90 million US dollars, and there is still a gap of 10 million ......"
"This ......" Zhao Sicheng was like being struck by lightning when he heard this!
He swallowed his spit, unable to keep his composure......
His face was pale, his hands holding his phone were trembling, and he had promised that if "Fatal Crisis" did not reach the box office of 100 million, there would be no box office share!
"Why it has to be in January! Mr. Gipps is going on a rampage right now, you know? For your sake, we wasted the hit movie "Chainsaw", the total global box office of this movie, just now, he has broken 100 million dollars in advance! Mr. Gipps is now being laughed at by Warner's higher-ups! Tom's voice became very agitated, and at last he couldn't help it, and began to make angry accusations.
"......" Zhao Sicheng's pale face turned pale, his chest seemed to be pressed against a big stone, his heart was very painful, and he was so uncomfortable that he would faint at any time.
Gasp......
He could only gasp incessantly.
"Mr. Tom, do I still have a chance? Please, give me one more chance, let me give anything I can! β
"What chance?"
"Don't make me too ugly in Hollywood, please, can you please ask the PR to help me wash it, I can lose China, but I can't lose our Hollywood...... I have a lot of scripts, I have talent, I can not be a director, I can be an assistant director, I can even be an assistant...... I can give you money, I can give you all my money, I need a chance......" In the office, he was very excited, wagging his tail and begging in front of Tom like an old dog who had been beaten and his back broken.
"That's it for now, I can help if I can, but your deeds have spread on Fox, and you want to go back to the company......"
"Is there anything else I can do?"
"That's it, I'll help you talk to the higher-ups, but you are a Chinese director, and we in Hollywood actually don't have much confidence in Chinese directors...... I probably can't ......."
"I can ......" Zhao Sicheng gasped, and finally bit his insistence, as if he had grasped some life-saving straw, and said this sentence violently.
"What can be?"
"I can change my nationality, I have always longed for the United States very much, my assets should be enough for immigration, right?"
"Mr. Zhao, sometimes I really think you are cheap, and you continue to suppress the directors of your own country overseas...... Don't you really have any shy bit of shame! Is it just you, or are all your directors of the older generation in China like this? Tom was silent for a long time, and finally he said this, his voice full of disdain.
"Art knows no nationality, where can nourish art, people who really love art will naturally go, Huaxia can't nourish the art in my heart, it's too backward, only Hollywood can ...... I believe that many Chinese directors have the same idea as me, they just suffer from not having the opportunity to ......" Facing Tom's voice, Zhao Sicheng did not answer positively, but said this sentence!
"Compared with you, I admire Mr. Zhou Yang more, I think his appearance of neither humble nor arrogant is very respectable!" Tom sighed.
"I'll prove that I'm worth more than him, he's just a grandstanding, lucky clown! But I believe that one day, I'm going to be able toβ"
"Okay, I'll try!" Tom really didn't bother to listen to his tirade, so he just interrupted and hung up the phone!
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"It's broken 100 million US dollars, and "Chainsaw" has broken 100 million at the global box office!"
"Oh my God!"
"I'm grass, the movie "Saw" is a film-within-a-film, and piecing together those montage cuts seems to be another amazing movie!"
"What?"
"There are professionals who are piecing it together, and it should be put together soon!"
Morning of January 23rd!
While all the filmmakers in the Chinese film circle were shocked by the Chinese box office of "Chainsaw", they suddenly saw an even more shocking news!
The footage of the fleeting montage version of the Chinese version of "Chainsaw" seems to be shooting shots, and these shots are pieced together with the Chinese version of "Chainsaw" and the European and American versions, plus a series of clips and resources leaked on the Internet, it seems to be another movie with a completely different plot......
