    United States, Blizzard Games.  Frank Pierce packed his things and was about to leave. When he saw that the computer in the office was still on, he went over and knocked on the door and said, "Hey, Mike, Allen, tonight is Christmas Eve, you won't have to work overtime, right?" "Of course  No, we just saw a funny thing on the Internet," Mike Molheim laughed.  "What?" Frank Pierce immediately ran in and watched.  Alan Adhan pointed to the computer and said: "Eastern Charm Network has launched a game channel. Our "Warcraft 2" has a very high score, with a score of 92. It is currently ranked first in the computer game category." Frank Pierce watched  After a long while, he asked: "Is it recommended by the website editor? We don't pay advertising fees." "No, it's all the comprehensive scores of netizens." Mike Molheim said.  Frank Pierce smiled and said: "It seems that this website is very fair and there is no behind-the-scenes operation." The three founders of Blizzard Games visited the game channel of Oriental Charm Network before packing up, turning off the computer and leaving.  Frank Pierce asked: "Do you have a show tonight? Why don't we go to the bar together and relax." Alan Adham said: "I asked my girlfriend to watch a movie, you go." This statement immediately attracted two people  The middle finger of a single dog.  "Haha, I haven't forgotten you," Alan Adham laughed, "Jenny will bring two colleagues with her, both of them are hot girls. Don't miss this opportunity." "Oh, oh,  Alan, I find myself falling in love with you." Frank went to hug each other excitedly.  "Get out of here, I'm not a gay." Allen kicked him away.  Mike shrugged, indifferent to this.  The three of them can barely be considered young and rich, so naturally they don't have to worry about finding a girlfriend. The reason why they are single is just because they are too homely.  The three of them drove to pick up the girl. After having a group dinner, they temporarily formed three couples and went to the cinema.  Allen asked his girlfriend Jenny: "What movie do you want to watch?" "I heard that "Game of the Brave" is great." Jenny replied.  Another girl named Maria said: "I watched that movie last week, let's change it to another one." "Oh, oh, it's Tom Cruise, let's watch "Resident Evil".  "The third girl strongly suggested.  I have to say that although the salary of a Hollywood superstar is very expensive, it is definitely worth the price, and the box office appeal is there.  Mike frowned and said, "This movie looks so familiar. I wonder where I've seen it before?" Allen smiled and said, "The banner ad on the homepage of Oriental Charm Network has been up for half a month." Mike patted his head: "  Yes, yes, when I open the web these days, I can see the advertisement for "Resident Evil" "Then let's watch this movie. It's the first movie to be advertised on the Internet. We can't miss it." Frank.  smiled.  So it was such a friendly decision, and "Resident Evil" sold 6 more movie tickets in North America.  Not long after entering the screening room and sitting down, Mike Molheim felt very depressed. The girl he was assigned was really not to his taste.  Not to mention she is a big fan of Tom Cruise. As soon as she sat down, she ate popcorn and talked about cosmetics and beauty.  This kind of woman is so boring that Mike Molheim didn¡¯t even bother to answer the conversation and just stared at the big screen waiting for the movie to start.  Fortunately, this movie did not disappoint him. When Mike saw the zombies appearing, he opened his mouth wide: "Oh my god, the zombie setting is so interesting. The screenwriter is an imaginative genius." After watching the movie  , only the fan girl was unhappy because her idol Tom Cruise had too few roles in the film, and the real protagonist was an Asian woman.  "Why are there so many Asian faces in this movie?" "Man, haven't you noticed? This is an Asian movie, and I'm going to say it's a Hong Kong movie." "Really? I thought it was an Indian movie." "The heroine is  She is indeed very beautiful, she must be of mixed race.¡± ¡°¡­¡± After several people left the cinema, they were still discussing it animatedly.  Whether it is the large number of white actors, English dialogue, or Li Jiaxin's mixed-race appearance, the cultural gap between the East and the West has been dissolved, making it easy for American audiences to accept this film.  Coupled with the high-schedule of 2,500 screens, the appeal of Tom Cruise, and the strong promotion of Paramount, the box office of "Resident Evil" in North America reached 18 million U.S. dollars in its first weekend (3 days) without any effort.  became the weekly box office champion.  Of course, another reason is the support of peers.  today?There are no good movies on Christmas, except for "Jumanji" which is pretty good, but this movie has been in theaters for ten days and has already passed its box office peak.  There are no tigers in the mountains, but monkeys are the overlords.  In this way, "Resident Evil" stood out from a group of weaklings, dominating the 1995 North American Christmas season, and topped the box office for three consecutive weeks.  With this momentum, it is certain that the North American box office will exceed 100 million. It depends on whether it can break the 150 million mark.  Fresh stuff always gets good reviews. "The Hollywood Reporter" commented: "A high-quality science fiction commercial film, the concept of zombies is very creative, and Kang always brings us new stuff." "Variety Show"  ¡± commented: ¡°¡®Resident Evil¡¯ has brought too many surprises to the audience, and the biggest surprise is at the end of the film. The hero and heroine escaped from the underground after many hardships, but what they faced was a more terrifying beginning. Yes.  "This is just the beginning." "The Christian Monitor": "The human heart is always scarier than the monster. Zombies come from human greed, and in the process of escape, human nature is a more difficult monster to deal with than the zombies." "The New York Times":  "Standard popcorn movie, but it's really interesting." The American people love zombies very much. After "Resident Evil", various movies and TV series about zombies appeared, and "The Walking Dead" even had several movies in one shot.  season.  When "Resident Evil" exceeded HK$30 million at the box office in Hong Kong, the box office in North America had already reached nearly 100 million U.S. dollars, and it even surged again on New Year's Day.  In the past, rebellious young people in the United States loved dressing up as vampires, werewolves, etc.  Now they finally have another choice. During an underground rock performance during the New Year period, a heavy metal band all dressed up as zombies, causing the fans to scream.  Allen, Mike and Frank, the three founders of Blizzard, originally thought that "Resident Evil" had nothing to do with them.  As a result, before the film was released in theaters, Sega Games and Paramount Pictures suddenly came to the door, saying that they wanted to invest in Blizzard Game Company, and brought the game rights of "Resident Evil".
