Of course, although Yan Xu left Hong Kong in embarrassment, there was inevitably some good news mixed in with such bad things.
¡°That is, before Yan Xu¡¯s plane took off, the long-awaited Japanese box office of ¡°Looking for the Devil¡± was released. The mysterious western China and the vast ancient desert city are all elements that Japanese people love.
That is to say, before the release of "Looking for the Devil", the Japanese blockbuster Dunhuang, which was also shot in western China, had just been released. The box office figure of 8.2 billion was the leading one, which also caused many movies to give in. It also became the highest box office in Japanese history. The fifth-ranked movie has a box office figure of 8.2 billion, which is close to 100 million US dollars. In such an era, this is definitely a surprising figure. It is also because of this movie that it has set off a wave of enthusiasm in China throughout Japan. hot.
"Searching for the Devil" was released during this trend. Although the Chinese elements and the mysterious western are not as historical as Dunhuang, and there are not many familiar Japanese movie stars participating, because it is a treasure hunt theme, it is far more entertaining than Dunhuang. Therefore, it showed a strong momentum when it was first released. On the day of release, the box office exceeded 100 million. By the end of the entire screening, although the box office of Looking for the Devil in Japan was not as exaggerated as that of Dunhuang, it was defeated by the many fans supported by their home country. Despite being a movie star, it still achieved a box office figure of 4.3 billion. Such a box office suddenly surpassed Shaolin Temple and became the highest-grossing movie in China.
Nearly 40% of the 4.3 billion belongs to theater chains, and the final distribution is only about 2.7 billion. Among these, because of the good results of Yan Xu¡¯s movies in Japan, and his popularity in Japan Prestige, the division between the Dragon Clan and Japan has also changed from the original 55 to the current 64 division.
??And the same movie was produced by Beiying Film and Dragon Clan, and the share in Japan is also distributed in this way. This is also the result of the Dragon Clan's concession on the Mainland's share. You must know that the Dragon Clan movie has a 30-70 split with the Beijing Film Studio's Mainland China share. Therefore, after this movie, the Dragon Clan can basically get 900 million yen. The share of the box office is 80 million Hong Kong dollars. The share of this movie alone is equivalent to more than half of the profits of the Dragon family last year, and even the profits of many medium-sized companies in Hong Kong for a year.
??And if calculated as a whole, the movie "Dragon" made a total profit of nearly 150 million by the end of the entire screening. The global box office has also reached 700 million, which can be said to be the highest box office among Hong Kong movies, and it is also a record-breaking film.
Such a movie "Dragon" made huge profits, and Beijing Film Studio also made a huge profit, more than 40 million yuan. However, it was worth the profits of Beijing Film Studio for several years, and it also allowed Beijing Film Studio to turn a profit from losses in one fell swoop.
Of course, this is not the only good news coming out, there is also Yan Xu's other movie "Eight Immortals Hotel", which will also be released soon. "Eight Immortals Hotel" is not like "Eight Immortals Hotel", which is suitable for all ages like "Looking for the Devil", but also There is no mysterious Chinese style, but the authenticity of the cases in the movie is still very attractive to some people in a tense society. Japanese middle-aged men who need to vent their irritating jobs and young people who are increasingly deviating from social morality due to the uneven development of society.
They are not like ordinary people who are disgusted by the image of Huang Zhiheng as a butcher in the movie and are deeply disgusted by his accusations. They will also have a trace of sympathy for the Zheng family members who died tragically, especially the innocent children, but for the Japanese For many people. The violence shown in this movie is particularly admired and liked by them. Those bloody and violent scenes are not only regarded as a cult by teenagers, but also make the blood boil for those office workers who are under great pressure. It is a portrayal of little people who dare to resist, and it is also the kind of realistic reality in their hearts.
3.1 billion box office. Although it is much lower than Looking for the Devil, it is still a figure that exceeds the previous box office. Usually his movies are basically hovering around more than one billion yen. This time, two movies with over three billion yen appeared one after another, and both It is Yan Xu's work, and it further established Yan Xu's status as a master director in Japan. Although this movie cost 1.2 billion less than Looking for the Devil, the final share of the Dragon Clan was higher than Looking for the Devil, which was ten billion. 100 million yen, which is close to 100 million Hong Kong dollars. The two movies made a total of 270 million, which has exceeded the profit of the Dragon family last year. Although Yan Xu is now worth a lot of money, he has two He has assets of more than one billion, but everyone is happy to make money. These two movies earned one-tenth of his assets, which also makes Yan Xu very excited.
The two movies have grossed over 7.4 billion in Japan. Although they are not as good as the Japanese box office of Dunhuang, they still account for about one-tenth of the total annual box office in Japan.
And this is also a myth for Hong Kong movies, far surpassing the usually popular Chen Long movies. IfIf Yan Xu had stayed in Hong Kong, he would have received absolutely overwhelming applause. However, now that Yan Xu is on a foreign land, he cannot receive these praises and applause. He can only watch the rising numbers on his account. Have fun.
After picking up the luggage, Yan Xu walked in front, and Ah Jun was carrying the luggage behind him. He just walked out of the aisle and saw the cardboard box that he didn't want to stand out among a group of people picking up the plane. Two slightly crooked Chinese characters "Nine Days" were written on it with black paint, and the person holding the sign was a black man wearing a baseball cap on his head and a large jersey. He wears two or three thumb-thick chains around his neck, and the hand holding the sign wears a few weird-looking rings. And he is not that black compared to Africans. He should be a black and white mixed race. .
[Nine days, here. ] The person who shouted was standing next to the man holding the sign. He wore a short-sleeved shirt with a large pattern and a body full of fat. In his half-exposed arms, you could vaguely see the huge wolf head tattooed inside. He He has a bald head, and a diamond earring is clearly inlaid on his ear. There is also a gold chain as thick as a thumb hanging on his neck, and a gold medal with at least half a tael hanging at the bottom. He also wears a lot of rings on his fingers, and they are all shining gold rings. He is completely dressed like a nouveau riche. Although his image has changed a lot from before, Yan Xu is still easy to recognize at a glance. Just recognized him.
[A Dong! ] Yan Xu ran up in a few steps and hugged the fat man who also ran over. Of course, his sexual orientation was completely correct. This excitement was entirely because the fat man in front of him was right. It¡¯s Guidong whom I haven¡¯t seen in two years. They grew up naked,
Even if the other party has changed a lot, it can still be easily recognized.
[You have changed a lot, you have such a thick gold chain, and you seem to have gained a lot of weight. ] Yan Xu looked at Gui Dong and looked him up and down. Although he had gained weight, he also had some tattoos on his arms, and he looked much more fierce. Compared to two years ago, although he had no worries about eating and drinking in the United States, he was still fierce. The anger didn't diminish at all.
[It¡¯s not that you and Ji Feo have been sending me money these two years, I just can¡¯t spend it all. ]Although Gui Dong has been in the United States for more than two years, Yan Xu and Ji Feo remit money to him every year, and the annual dividends from the three of them's club are one million US dollars. This money is enough for Gui Dong to survive in the United States. Extremely chic.
[And you¡¯re so nice that you didn¡¯t come to see me when you came to the United States last year. I¡¯ve watched your movie Beast Meal many times, and it shocked those old Americans. ]
[This time I¡¯m not here to join you, I¡¯m going to stay in the United States for a while. ] Yan Xu patted Guidong on the shoulder.
¡°Hey, you¡¯re pretty awesome, but I heard what Ji Feo said, you actually got Xiang Shisan¡¯s horse on you, you¡¯re so awesome. ] Gui Dong laughed hahaly, [I can imagine that Xiang Shisan¡¯s face is absolutely beautiful. ]
[I drank too much and became confused, otherwise I wouldn¡¯t have ended up like this, leaving your sisters-in-law and your company in Hong Kong. ] Yan Xu sighed and said.
[It¡¯s okay, just think you¡¯re here for a vacation. I¡¯ve covered everything here. I¡¯ll definitely let you have fun and enjoy it. ] Gui Dong patted his chest and said.
[You guys have been doing pretty well recently. If Ji Feo hadn't told me that I was still kept in the dark, you would have become a club boss. I didn't expect that you would become famous in Los Angeles in two years. ] Yan Xu, who was born in a club, does not have much prejudice against mixed clubs.
[It¡¯s just a small club, with only a few dozen people. It¡¯s not a big deal. It was started by my cousin and a few friends. There are clubs like ours in Los Angeles that don¡¯t have even one thousand or eight hundred people. It¡¯s nothing compared to nothing. But it was a small matter, but I heard that he now has thousands of subordinates, and he is in charge of a few streets, and he is the real boss. We are only in charge of two streets and a dance hall now. ] Guidong said, Hollywood stars can be seen everywhere in Los Angeles, as well as gangs. There are thousands of gang groups in Los Angeles, especially in the South District. It is simply a paradise for gangsters, and there are wars every day. There are constant competitions for various turfs. Being able to control the streets and dance halls in such a fiercely contested place is no longer a small club, which also shows the strength of Guidong.
"[But the environment here is much worse than that in Hong Kong. At least guns are banned in Hong Kong. There are very few shooting incidents. You have to be careful here. ] Yan Xu said with some worry that gang fights in the United States cannot be considered a fight if they don't involve guns.
