Chapter 414: Supporting Chinese Science Fiction Films on Your Own?

"Inception" has an excellent reputation like Zhang Sheng's previous movies.

The quality of the movie is guaranteed, and with such a strong cast, it is naturally popular with fans.

Forty percent of the films are scheduled, and the attendance rate is still amazing.

The films of the same period were all overshadowed.

The only movie that fans pay attention to is Zhang Sheng's "Inception".

With the official release of the film, there are more and more discussions about this movie on the Internet.

Among them, the most discussed is undoubtedly the ending of the film.

"The domestic box office exploded on the first day."

Gu Sisi said to Zhang Sheng with a smile.

The film was released in China, but not abroad, but it still has to be promoted.

Therefore, the main creator of the film was divided into two waves.

Jiang Bin took Peng Yuqian and others to run propaganda in China.

And Zhang Sheng took Gu Sisi and others to run abroad.

For this movie, Zhang Sheng also has high hopes for the foreign box office.

"Expected." Zhang Sheng smiled and said.

is so hot, such a schedule, if the box office does not explode on the first day, it will hit the street.

"It's over 500 million." Gu Sisi said with a smile.

"Huh?"

Zhang Shengleng paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's not very high!" ”

Is it high?

It doesn't seem to be high.

In the previous life, there were several films with a single-day box office of more than 500 million, and some of them broke one billion.

"Detective Chinatown 3" broke one billion on the first day, setting the highest box office in the world on the first day of a single film in the single market and a single day.

Like "Changjin Lake" on the seventh day of its release, the single-day box office broke 500 million.

The single-day box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" did not break 500 million, but eleven days after its release, the single-day box office was more than 420 million.

The film market in this world is even bigger, and the single-day box office broke 500 million, which seems not surprising.

"Just pretend!"

Gu Sisi glanced at Zhang Sheng and pouted.

With such a box office, he is still so calm, isn't he pretending to be something?

"Inception" had a box office of more than 530 million on the first day, breaking the domestic first-day box office record and also breaking the domestic single-day box office record.

And that's clearly just the beginning.

After the film was released, the popularity increased instead of decreasing, and discussions about this movie can be seen everywhere on the Internet.

On the first day, it broke 500 million.

On the second day of release, it still exceeded 500 million, and there was still growth.

The cumulative box office exceeded one billion in two days.

Blind the eyes of countless people.

However, two days later, the box office trend has declined.

On the third day of release, the box office exceeded 400 million.

Four days, more than 400 million.

On the fifth day, it fell to 400 million.

However, on the fifth day of its release, the box office exceeded 2 billion, and the momentum was so fierce that it seemed expected to break the box office record of "Wolf Warrior 2".

In the first week of its release, the box office was nearly three billion.

And foreign countries have also begun to release one after another.

In other Asian countries and regions, the box office was good on the first day.

Some also directly won the single-day box office championship.

North America is a bit worse.

After all, the summer file is very competitive in North America.

"Inception" grossed more than 10 million on the first day, squeezing into the top five of the single-day box office.

However, the film's reputation is excellent.

The box office on the second day directly squeezed into the top three of the single-day box office list in North America with a box office of nearly 20 million.

There is still a lot of competition pressure in the North American summer season.

A Chinese-language movie has rushed into the top three at the single-day box office, which is absolutely rare.

What's even more rare is a science fiction film.

Hollywood sci-fi films are world-renowned, but what about Chinese-language sci-fi films?

It was a desert before.

No one can come up with a decent one at all.

But now, a Chinese-language sci-fi film shines in the North American market in Hollywood's back garden.

You can imagine how rare it is.

And it seems that there is also hope to compete for the single-day box office title.

The film also had an excellent reputation in North America.

As the number of theaters released, the box office of the film is also rising.

More than 10 million on the first day.

Nearly 20 million on the second day.

On the third day, it directly broke 20 million.

and ranked second on the single-day box office list.

It's only a little worse than the Hollywood blockbuster that came in first.

On the fourth day of release, the single-day box office was still 20 million, an increase from the previous day.

One trades off the other.

Then, "Inception" became the single-day box office champion in North America.

A Chinese-language sci-fi film topped the North American box office list in the summer.

This news was transmitted back to China and caused great repercussions.

When did Chinese movies become so proud in North America?

This is unprecedented.

In the past, Hollywood films swept the domestic market invincible, and domestic film festivals were defeated.

And what about Chinese films in North America?

Not even a single bubble can rise.

And now?

Chinese-language films have finally made their way on Hollywood's turf.

And this also stimulates the domestic box office.

The domestic box office exceeded 4 billion, and there is no suspense.

Whether five billion is possible depends on the staying power of the follow-up box office.

The foreign box office is also excellent.

Many countries and regions have won the single-day box office championship.

The popularity of the film is amazing.

Almost a global topic has formed.

A topic about "dreams".

Domestically, books on dream interpretation sold instantly, and they were also sold abroad.

Among them, "Zhou Gong's Dream Interpretation" is the most.

"Why do your movies always do so much at the box office?"

Jiang Bin looked at Zhang Sheng and sighed a little, but said with some doubts.

"Inception" will be very high at the box office, but Jiang Bin didn't expect it to be so amazing.

Especially at the foreign box office.

Many countries and regions directly won the single-day box office champion.

This is definitely the first list of Chinese-language films.

"Isn't Director Jiang's film also amazing at the box office?" Zhang Sheng smiled and said.

"Compared to your movies, it's shocking now!" Jiang Bin said.

He once dominated the domestic box office list, but after Zhang Sheng, his movies are not so amazing.

Now the top ten at the box office are monopolized by Changsheng Entertainment's movies.

"Starry Night" saved him a bit of face, but the movie was still starring Zhang Sheng.

Thinking of this, Jiang Bin regretted inviting Zhang Sheng to star.

The top ten at the box office list today are not written by Zhang Sheng, but directed and starred by him.

"Maybe as rumored to be, I really have a leg with Lady Luck." Zhang Sheng said with a smile.

Jiang Bin also smiled.

I'm afraid I can't do this just by luck!

"Inception" is about to reach the top of the box office.

Perhaps, it is difficult for the domestic box office to surpass "Wolf Warrior 2", but the possibility of surpassing the animated film "Nezha" is not small.

But the foreign box office of "Inception" is obviously not comparable to those two movies.

"Wolf Warrior 2" is actually only the first domestic box office.

If it is said that the box office of Chinese movies is the first, it was not "Wolf Warrior 2" before this, but Zhang Sheng's "Terminator".

"Wolf Warrior 2" is almost ignored at the foreign box office, but "Terminator" is different.

There are also nearly 300 million US dollars at the box office abroad, which is higher than "Wolf Warrior 2".

And what about Inception?

Judging from today's box office trend, I am afraid that it is 500 million US dollars.

There is no suspense that the North American box office will break $200 million, and $300 million is also expected.

The domestic box office of 5 billion is a bit difficult, but I'm afraid it's not much worse.

In other countries and regions in Asia, as well as in Europe and other countries and regions, the box office is extremely good.

It may be more than $300 million.

The cumulative global box office of this movie exceeded one billion US dollars, but I am afraid it did not run.

And the film will also become the first Chinese-language film to break one billion dollars at the global box office.

This box office is much higher than the original.

The key is that the domestic box office is much higher than the original.

"Inception" became the world's first popular Chinese-language film film.

It means a lot.

The previous "Terminator" was a small fire at best.

Chinese-language films have gradually gained international popularity.

"In the past few days, my phone is going to be blown up." Zhou Zhao looked at Zhang Sheng and said, "Almost all of them ask you about your new film." There are film and television companies that want to invest, and there are those who want to stuff actors, and they don't want to be paid. ”

"Just follow the old rules." Zhang Sheng said.

What are the old rules?

If you want to invest, that's fine.

However, Changsheng Entertainment is definitely the largest investor and the dominant party.

Your sister can invest, but you can't interfere.

If you want to point fingers, then don't vote.

Whoever is eligible to invest depends on who benefits the film.

Zhang Sheng's film does not need to increase investors to share the risk.

And Changsheng Entertainment has very strong funds.

Increasing investors is naturally to optimize resources, or replace resources.

Many of the resources that the company's artists take outside are like this.

As for the actors?

Priority is given to artists under Changsheng Entertainment, and if there is no suitable one, then look for it from other investors.

"Do you have an idea for a new film?" Zhou Zhao looked at Zhang Sheng and asked.

"Hmm!" Zhang Sheng nodded and said, "The script is almost there." ”

It's fast enough.

Zhou Zhao is used to it, but he is still inevitably surprised.

Zhang Sheng gave Liu Yuan a script not long ago.

It was said to be a good script.

"Sci-fi?" Zhou Zhao asked.

"Hmm!"

Zhang Sheng nodded.

Zhou Zhao smiled, you still really want to die in science fiction movies!

Or, do you want to support Chinese sci-fi films on your own?

That's not an exaggeration.

Zhang Sheng is now the most representative figure of Chinese film science fiction.

Or rather, the only representative figure.

Because there are not many other sci-fi films left.

Yes, that's mostly bad movies.

Not to mention influence or anything.

Domestic fans only recognize Zhang Sheng's sci-fi films.

"Where's Lao Lu?" Zhang Sheng asked.

"Busy with Lao Liu's movie." Zhou Zhao asked.

"I can contact the major car brands for my new film." Zhang Sheng said, "That movie can implant a lot of car commercials. ”

"Racing movies?" Zhou Zhao asked.

can implant many car advertisements, and Zhou Zhao naturally thinks of racing movies.

"It's not." Zhang Sheng said, "Forget it, when the script is written, you will know after reading it." ”

Zhang Sheng's new film: "Transformers"!

Why this movie?

In addition to the box office success of this series of movies, the key is its peripheral products.

Changsheng Entertainment has also invested a lot in the development of film and television peripherals.

It's just that so far there has been little success.

Since he has invested so much money, how can Zhang Sheng turn a blind eye?

"Inception" is still being screened around the world, but Zhang Sheng is ready to start preparing for a new movie.

And "Transformers" is obviously time-consuming to prepare.

"Can you pass the trial?"

After reading the script, Lu Wenhua couldn't help but ask.

The script is definitely a little different from the original.

After all, the background of the story has changed.

But it's pretty much the same.

It involves leaders, although the image is very positive, but Lu Wenhua does not have much confidence.

"It should be fine." Zhang Sheng said, "Let's send the script to see first." ”
