Volume One: The Broken Cocoon Chapter 500: Frustrated Korean Reporter, Shaky Japanese Records

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    This time, the "buzzing" discussion continued for a long time and couldn't stop, because in everyone's opinion, "A Better Day" has continuously broken the box office records of Chinese-language films in Japan and South Korea. This is really amazing.  .  US$30 million was invested in "The Promise", US$18 million was invested in "The Banquet", and US$45 million was invested in "Golden Armor". These so-called blockbusters with limited investment amounts have only become popular in China, and have been followed abroad.  There is little gain in joking.  The investment for "A Better Man" was less than 8 million US dollars, and before it was released, no one was very optimistic about it. So when the results came out, the contrast was a bit big, and it even felt like a dream.  It turns out that the bigger the investment, the more profitable it is, nor does it mean that the scene must be extremely luxurious and have big names gathered to make money, nor does it only make money in the classical/historical/martial arts genre.  On the contrary, modern action films with shorter shooting cycles, smaller investments, and simpler stories are more likely to attract foreigners.  Damn it, doesn¡¯t this clearly show that the so-called costume blockbusters that have been popular in Chinese-language movies in recent years are actually just messing around?  After all, you can neither make a lot of US dollars abroad nor win a big prize (International Category A Grand Prize), so what¡¯s the point of investing so much?  Isn't it just a waste of money?  Well, at this moment, many famous directors who have worked on costume blockbusters have been shot. Even Wu Yusen, who was rushing to produce, was shot while lying down, because the "Red Cliff" he was rushing to produce was another historical film.  Action movie!  If it were released next year, the global box office would not be as good as "A Better Day".  I believe that ¡®Bai Ge Wu¡¯ will also be sprayed miserably.  Of course, this should not happen.  After all, the starring cast of "Red Cliff" is lucky enough to have a certain guy participate. No matter how bad the box office is, it will definitely not be inferior to "The Man", but it may even surpass it by a lot!  "Ahem~" Faced with this 'buzzing' scene, Jiang Zhiqiang had to cough twice, his smile faded, and he thought to himself: "I've been waiting for you for dozens of seconds, what are you going to do?  The discussion should be discussed privately!" Seemingly sensing his impatience, the guests at the scene finally shut up.  Both of them regained their calm demeanor and set their eyes on Lao Jiang's face again.  "South America and Australia are areas where Chinese-language films have always had poor performance, and the other is a region with a small population that cannot be reached by Chinese-language films. Therefore, in these two regions, the film only received a total box office of US$9.5 million.  . And it has already been canceled due to poor performance. " Speaking of the results in these two places, Jiang Zhiqiang's voice was quite regretful, especially since there are many countries in South America and a large population, but Chinese-language films just can't be sold.  Because Portuguese and Spanish are popular here, and countries in South America are generally poor and unrest.  So the number of people who can afford to watch movies is actually not that many.  As a result, Chinese-language films will certainly not be able to sell!  ¡°Of course, it¡¯s not just Chinese-language films that are difficult to sell in South America. Even Hollywood blockbusters have never regarded South America as an important ticket warehouse.  Just like "Transformers", it was released on a large scale in South America for more than a month.  It only received 35 million US dollars, which is not as good as the income in mainland China!  So, the main creators are just a little regretful, but they don¡¯t feel lost. After all, the market needs to be cultivated. More importantly, there are always various turmoils and poverty, and there is no way to even cultivate the market!  The reporters didn¡¯t react much. They all obviously knew this, so Jiang Zhiqiang quickly continued: "Not to mention Africa, we directly sold the local release rights for 800,000 US dollars!" "Hahaha  " "Well, this result simply made everyone laugh, because in the whole of Africa, South Africa and Egypt are the only relatively reliable markets. Most other countries and regions are either in war or famine. Who the hell has it?  Capital to watch movies?  Being able to sell it cleanly for $800,000 is considered a profit.  Jiang Zhiqiang was also laughing, but he was still thinking in his heart. If it was really released in several relatively stable countries in Africa, would this movie be able to get a total box office of 5 million US dollars?  If it is achieved, this drama may be able to surpass "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"!  Of course, it is useless to think about these things now, and he quickly forgot them, nodded and continued: "Finally, the box office data in Europe is not bad, especially the United Kingdom!" He exposed it  Smiling, satisfaction clearly revealed: "Because we are also an English-speaking country, we were greatly affected by the box office performance of the United States, so we earned a total of 9.55 million U.S. dollars in the four weeks of release!" Lao~ Jiang smacked his lips, seeming to reminisce, "Then  Germany, France and Russia, they jointly contributed 7.56 million U.S. dollars, plus 4.5 million U.S. dollars contributed by Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal and other countries, the total score in Europe was 21.61 million U.S. dollars, becoming the fourth largest box office in the world for this movie (mainly  Ticket warehouse locations: Mainland China, the United States, Japan, Europe, Southeast Asia, South America, and South Korea).  ¡± ¡°Well, now the guests present can finally shout loudly, because everyone has obtained the total box office except Southeast Asia and the Mainland, and after quick calculation, the result was quickly obtained: 152 million  Dollar! ¡°His!  It is indeed a perversion!  " A Korean reporter took a breath of cold air and said in horror: "Our "Han River Monster" only received 2.2 million US dollars in the United States, and the global box office combined was less than 80 million US dollars (there are several versions,  The smaller one is only RMB 500 million, the larger one is RMB 800 million (the middle one is cut out). Unexpectedly, such an ordinary-looking police action movie with such a small investment was actually sold in Europe, America, Japan and South Korea.  Twice the box office, why?  Why is this?  "Not only were the Korean reporters extremely frustrated and couldn't figure out the reason, the Japanese reporters also felt very uncomfortable and their minds were full of chaos. "Fortunately, we in Japan still have "Spirited Away" to compete, and it still maintains the highest box office of non-Hollywood productions.  It is also the holder of the highest box office of Asian movies. Well, "A Better Day" is only over 200 million U.S. dollars now, but "Spirited Away" is 250 million U.S. dollars. It should not be able to surpass it. Fortunately, fortunately!  ¡± Of course, reporters from Japan and South Korea are frustrated and uneasy, but reporters from Hong Kong, Taiwan and the mainland don¡¯t have to worry about it. After all, "A Better Day" is a Chinese-language film, and the leading actors are all Chinese. The results it has achieved are getting better and better.  Gao, everyone has more face, because the Chinese people have an underlying idea, that is, if they can't be the boss in the world, they must become the boss in Asia, no matter what. Therefore, the reporters from China Entertainment, who were the most present, were very popular.  Every one of them was as excited as a child who got a red envelope during the Chinese New Year. Regardless of whether the people around them were familiar with each other, they began to babble and express their excitement.  Got it!  $152 million!  There is definitely hope of breaking the record of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"!  " "Hey, what is "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"?  It would be best to eliminate the record left by Miyazaki Hayao's "Spirited Away". In such a huge Asia, how can a small Japanese bullshit cartoon occupy the honor of being the highest-grossing movie in Asia?  Anyway, there is only 50 million US dollars left, so there should be a chance, right?  " "There's a damn chance!  50 million U.S. dollars is not RMB. If converted, it is almost 400 million RMB!  There is still so much money left, and the domestic box office is almost unable to rise. How can it be broken?  " "Damn it, why can't it be broken?  Doesn¡¯t Tang Xiaosa claim to have tens of millions of fans in China?  Each of them has a ticket, which is a decent 1 billion yuan. Are they afraid that they won't be able to break "Spirited Away"?  " "Let me go, do you think every fan is a loyal fan?  He only has more than 9 million registered fans, and the tens of millions of fans he claims to support are all based on whim! Who would put hope in them?  " "I guess, it seems we can only wait for "Red Cliff". This drama has a strong cast and higher investment. I think it should be possible to beat "Spirited Away"!  "  Brother Xiaosha has no idea that there are actually radical reporters from China Entertainment who want him to use his power to kill "Spirited Away", the highest-grossing film in Japan, the highest-grossing film in Asia and the highest-grossing non-Hollywood film in the world, and even each other.  There was almost a conflict. If he had known about this earlier, he might have really gone to Japan to do some publicity. After all, Japan is still the second largest vote base in the world. He should work harder and show more in Japan.  Maybe he can earn tens of millions of dollars more, but it doesn¡¯t matter, because ¡°Red Cliff¡± will definitely be promoted in Japan, South Korea, Europe and the United States, and then he will show off his power!
