The original "Wonderful Night 3" because of the death of "Roosevelt" actor Robin before its release, which gave the series a "legendary ending".

I probably can't do it with this version now.

Lu Ping'an doesn't regret it, anyway, the American version is used to just eat, and it can be successfully completed.

At most, a little adaptation is added to increase the fun.

For example, let several characters from the Chinese version appear on the scene, so as to break the definition of "remake" of the two versions and let the two worlds play a fusion.

By the way, it can also give the Chinese version of the actors a taste of what it is like to appear in a Hollywood movie.

As for how to linkage, this is also simple, Lu Ping'an already has an idea, and he can write it when he returns to China.

And before filming the American version of "Wonderful Night 3", of course, you still have to shoot the Chinese version first.

Regarding the Chinese version of "Wonderful Night", in fact, from the perspective of making money, this series is actually far from the point of "ending".

The first two works have broken the box office record in domestic film history, making the IP already have an excellent fan base.

If you open a "prequel" or a few sequels, you can still get a lot of box office.

However, Lu Ping'an finally decided to end it directly.

The main thing is that the resurrection stalk is not very suitable for playing too much, and the three are about the same, and more is fried cold rice.

In addition, there is actually a relatively big issue involved in this, that is, about the "return of cultural relics".

When it comes to museums, history and cultural relics, the loss of cultural relics overseas is an unavoidable topic.

"Wonderful Night" can't help but touch on this, otherwise the series will really become meaningless and cliché.

A good high-style IP is turned into a bad movie, and the impact on the entire company, fans and even the entire industry will be immeasurable.

And to get involved in this, we can't avoid practical problems.

Therefore, the theme of "Wonderful Night 3" focuses on the "overseas lost cultural relics", and the series stops there, which is the best.

Of course, in the end, Lu Ping'an will also leave a gap.

For example, when the great powers return cultural relics in large quantities in the future, then "Wonderful Night 4" can also start filming.

In this way, the "Wonderful Night" series may really become a bright pearl in Chinese film history.

I hope it can be realized in the future.

After chatting about "Wonderful Night 3", the matter was finalized, and Dingfeng began to contact the British Museum, and Lu Ping'an was also going back to China.

Early the next morning, he landed in the capital.

After returning to the company, Wu Guohua handed over the Spring Festival file report.

At this time, it was already March 30th, the Spring Festival file had long ended, and the first few films had also ended their two-month screening.

There are 7 movies in the Spring Festival file, just look at the last five, "Di Renjie" is 530 million, "Warring States" is 320 million, and the rest of the movies have two or three billion.

The box office figures look the same as last year.

But when the box office data of the first and second two movies comes out, it is an "explosion"!

Source Code 2 1.163 billion.

"Let the Bullets Fly" 1.266 billion!

Two movies, with a box office of nearly 2.5 billion!

"Let the Bullets Fly" directly set a box office record in domestic film history.

In fact, seeing this data, Lu Ping'an himself felt a little abnormal.

The original time and space "Let the Bullets Fly" only had a box office of 700 million, which directly doubled it, which is a bit terrifying.

But take a closer look at the various types of support behind the box office.

The number of big screens today is about 30% more than the same period last year.

The total number of big screens is already equivalent to the volume of the original time and space at the end of 2013 and the beginning of 2014.

At that time, the champion of the Spring Festival file was 1.1 billion for "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven", and 700 million for the dark horse "Where Are You Going, Dad" movie.

Compared with these two films, the box office of "Source Code 2" and "Let the Bullets Fly" is not cheaper, and the quality is crushing, and the box office is higher than them, which is too normal.

Lu Ping'an even felt low.

There are also many people in the market who are not satisfied.

Because last year's "Avatar" won a box office of 1.9 billion in China.

If you can't exceed it, of course everyone is not satisfied.

Then everyone felt that these two movies had some internal friction.

It should be released separately, and it may be able to get a higher box office when the time comes.

Fans are naïve.

If it is released separately, it may not be able to get such a high box office, because the gathering of good movies has a promoting effect on the schedule.

But no matter how you say it, if you don't exceed, you don't exceed, and it's a pity.

"So everyone thinks that Lu Dao should personally direct a blockbuster film and take back the lost heights."

Wu Guohua said to Lu Ping'an with a smile.

Lu Ping'an laughed after hearing this: "What did the fans really say? ”

"That's not it, you look at these comments, they've all been copied down for you."

Wu Guohua handed over a document as he spoke, all of which were excerpted comments on the Internet.

Overall, it's similar to what Wu Guohua said.

Everyone already knows that Lu Ping'an has finished the filming of the "Batman" series, so they began to look forward to him directing domestic blockbusters in person and regaining the domestic box office highland.

Being urged to change, of course, is a very cool feeling.

It's just that Lu Ping'an didn't go up.

is still the same sentence, with the skyrocketing number of domestic big screens in the future.

Just 1.9 billion is not a problem at all.

So reclaiming the box office high ground or something is not the point at all.

The point is to win the high ground of box office and word of mouth.

This is what "Lu Ping'an personally ends" should do, and it is also what fans are really looking forward to.

Regarding this point, Lu Ping'an asked Wu Guohua again: "How is the overseas situation of "Source Code 2" now? ”

Wu Guohua quickly came up with the data.

At present, "Source Code 2" has been released overseas for a month and a half.

Among them, 30% of the regions such as South Korea, which was the earliest, have already been screened.

At present, 40% of the regions are currently being screened, and the remaining 30% will be released in succession starting next month.

So far, "Source Code 2" has won a total of $120 million at the box office in addition to the two sides of the Taiwan Strait.

With the addition of the mainland and Xiangjiang Bay, the total global box office has reached 300 million US dollars.

How much the global box office can reach in the future depends on the North American market, the largest box office.

If the North American market is not good, then the global box office of "Source Code 2" is estimated to be only about 350 million to 400 million US dollars at most.

If the North American market explodes and comes to 100 million, then the global 450 million to 500 million will be very comfortable.

In this regard, Lu Ping'an himself does not know whether the North American market can be viable.

Although "Source Code 1" won nearly $60 million in North America, the advance of the film itself played a big role at that time.

It's 2011 now, and it's hard to tell.

However, even if the egg is hung in North America in the end, Lu Ping'an is already very satisfied.

The $350 million global box office is not good.

has set a new global box office record for Chinese-language films.

After deducting the $180 million from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three places, there will be $170 million. (End of chapter)
