Superstars In Parallel Time and Space

Chapter 938 "Captain Huaxia" released

The news came too suddenly and shockingly, but in fact, everyone was mentally prepared.

Because I have always known that this movie is a big hit at the box office around the world, and the word-of-mouth and box-office responses in various regions are very good, and the box office is rising steadily. "Titanic" is a work with both box office and word-of-mouth!

Film critics and audiences from all over the world have given the film extremely high evaluations. On any film and television rating website, this film has no score lower than 9.2 points, and it should be regarded as the top film in the world!

People from other countries don't pay much attention to the box office follow-up, mainly because Huaxia pays more attention to it.

Since the movie exploded at the box office in China, everyone's attention has been fixed on the overseas market, and Lu Fang and others are also very concerned.

The total box office of "Titanic" in China did not surpass that of "Iron Man", but it just exceeded 5 billion. It ranked third in China's box office rankings, and the previous one was "Iron Man".

The first place is a domestic theme blockbuster, which has been filmed for decades. It is about the difficult time when the country was founded. When this movie came out, government units organized employees to watch it, and major companies also had Responding to the call, so set a record at the box office!

Originally, Lu Fang and others saw that the North American box office was not as high as expected, but with Chen Mubai's second publicity and the film's word-of-mouth fermentation, the film took off against the trend in North America!

Every day the box office is rising steadily, making the movie explode again!

This movie finally conquered the audience in North America!

This can be regarded as a rare case where the box office of a movie in the first week is not as high as that of the second or third week, which is extremely rare!

Generally, this kind of situation occurs in those literary films, because they don’t pay attention to box office but pay attention to word of mouth, relying on good word of mouth to counterattack, but also because the total box office base of the movie is low, so it is easier to counterattack.

This kind of situation generally does not happen to commercial films, because what these films need most is publicity and influence, and the best time to grab the box office is to build momentum for the film at the first time.

"Titanic" is a "heterogeneous". The box office of this movie is not low, but compared with Chen Mubai's other works, the box office is a little bit worse, and it has not met everyone's expectations.

In the end, the movie grossed $900 million in North America!

The combined box office of Huaxia and North America has already reached 1.6 billion, surpassing the global box office of "Iron Man" at the beginning!

Coupled with the markets in other Asian countries and Europe, this movie finally surpassed 2 billion US dollars, surpassing the second film with 1.9 billion US dollars, and became the new No. 1 in the world!

The reason for the long time interval is that the film was released later in other regions and was not released simultaneously.

During this time,

Relying on the influence of "Titanic", this film has been sent to the Berlin Film Festival for review in advance, and passed the main competition unit!

Originally, it was necessary for the film to be released to the world at this film festival, but considering Chen Mubai's fame and the influence of the film, and the North American and Chinese markets as the world's first and second movie box office, since it has already been screened in these two regions , the program group granted the privilege as appropriate, and then the film was released again in other regions.

Such is the influence of celebrity combined with the perks of being well-connected, and if one does not have both, one would not enjoy the privilege.

After all, there are too many world-renowned directors, not everyone can enjoy the privilege of Chen Mubai, otherwise the credibility of the film festival will collapse.

The main reason is that the Chinese government pushed him behind the scenes, and the matter between him and Oscar has in disguise increased the influence of the three major European film festivals. Regarding this kind of honor, the Berlin Film Festival can't get away with it.

There is nothing wrong with the saying that the enemy of an enemy is a friend.

AMC.

"I thought this movie would be a hit, but I didn't expect it to break a series of records and become the highest-grossing movie in history!" Caitlin and Trillis gathered in the office, their tone was quite weak.

She thought that "Titanic" would not be liked by North American audiences, but she didn't expect everyone to like this movie so much. Even in North America, this movie still became one of the best-selling movies!

"When you told me before, I didn't really believe it, but I didn't expect it to rise suddenly. The second publicity of Mubai Entertainment + word-of-mouth fermentation of the movie made this movie explode. It's really amazing. Surprised me."

Trillis told her at the beginning that the movie "Titanic" was of very high quality, but Caitlin still didn't care. There are too many high-quality movies, but not every movie has a high box office. Not proportional.

Moreover, the box office data of the first week in North America also accepted her guess, but she did not expect that there would be an accident after all.

"The worst outcome we had expected at the beginning has gradually emerged. Even if Chen Mubai won nothing at the Berlin Film Festival, with this box office performance, he still will not have any influence. His words will only make him more famous and influential. Broader and more prestigious."

"I can only hope for the best ending like this. Otherwise, if he wins the Golden Bear Award again, I'm afraid he really has the stance of becoming the world's number one filmmaker. At that time, we will all be affected, and Huaxia's film and television works can take advantage of the opportunity to rise and share Part of the market share that belongs to us has a far greater impact than the loss of Oscar's prestige." Caitlin whispered.

In the current ending, Chen Mubai will not lose no matter what, it just depends on how big the win is.

Once things really come to the worst possible outcome, his pretentious behavior this time directly destroys the credibility and influence of the Oscar Film Festival at the World Film Festival, and those judges are all from various film and television industries in the United States, then It even affects them.

The rise of Chen Mubai is bound to make the world's audience pay more attention to China's film and television works. Originally, the world's film market is dominated by Hollywood. Now that Mubai Entertainment's rise is bound to encroach on some of their share, this is absolutely what they don't want to see result.

Once Huaxia's film and television industry develops rapidly, it will also have a certain impact on the American film and television industry in the future. After all, the market is so big, if someone rises to occupy the market share, someone will definitely lose part of it.

Cui Lilis tone was low: "At the beginning, I didn't expect Chen Mubai to be able to do such an arrogant thing. I would rather him win the prize than get this box office result. It's too scary."

"What surprised me the most was that he got such a high box office with a love movie. It was completely beyond my expectation. Among the top ten movies, the only one was a love movie, and the rest were all For special effects films, no one should be able to achieve this achievement.”

"yes."

On this point, Caitlin also agrees.

Who would have thought that a love movie broke many box office records and became the world's number one box office.

If someone had told her that before, she would definitely think that the other party was a lunatic!

"The key point is that we have missed the best time to stop him, and there is nothing we can do now, the momentum of Mubai Entertainment is already unstoppable"

"I don't know what will happen to the performance of the superhero movie they collaborated with Solomon. I hope it will not be too successful, otherwise it will be really hopeless."

The two sighed, they had already confessed.

In fact, when "Titanic" was released, they also discussed with other companies, and everyone sniped the movie together, but no one responded.

The tragedy of the main MGM upper works is vivid, and the small-budget works have little impact on Chen Mubai. If you want to cause certain obstacles, you must be the works of well-known directors or works starring popular stars. However, this kind of investment will not be small. It's an investment of nearly 100 million US dollars, who wants to lose?

Everyone makes movies to make money, not to lose money. MGM suffered serious losses in the last movie, and no one can tell whether Chen Mubai will explode with the same momentum again.

At the beginning, the box office of "Titanic" was not good, and they were quite happy, but then the box office soared like a rocket, which shocked them. Otherwise, under this kind of offensive, it will inevitably end in defeat again and again!

"Aren't you going to promote the movie?"

Lu Fang was very surprised to see Chen Mubai at the company.

""Resident Evil 2" has already started to be released, aren't you going to participate in the road show with the crew?"

This movie is still starring Tao Yaoyao, and the production was completed in five months, which is very fast!

There are not many main special effects scenes, and Chen Mubai is not the director, he is the producer, responsible for assisting in the filming, as long as there is no problem with the general direction of the story, he is in charge of the post-production.

The director is someone else, a well-known young director.

Nowadays, Mubai Entertainment is so famous that recruiting talents has become much easier. Coupled with the expansion of the company, the demand for personnel has always been high, and a group of film and television staff has been added again, and there are many more trainees.

However, with the debut of several generations of trainees and their gradual emergence in major film and television productions, Chen Mubai no longer needs to always pay attention to the situation of the trainees, and he can choose roles from these people.

Mubai Entertainment is extremely strict in the selection of actors. Those who can make their debut will have good acting skills and a balance in all aspects. It is precisely because of the strict requirements that they perform well in the works, and thus gradually have fame.

This movie is a post-production special effect while filming, and when the filming is completed, the special effects are almost done, and Chen Mubai will do the post-production editing and the dubbing of the actors. The two-pronged approach is very fast.

"I've gone to a few major occasions, it's almost enough." Chen Mubai smiled and said: "I'm not a director after all, I can use this gimmick in publicity, but if I run too many road shows, it's unnecessary.

"Besides, the movie itself has a fan base, and I don't have that much influence on the movie."

Lu Fang waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, you don't know how valuable your name is now. Any works related to you, the data is going up!"

"The third part of "Reaper" and "Chain Saw" surpassed the first two at the box office. It is because of your name as the screenwriter that the overseas market exploded. "Titanic" directly made you a Chinese director known to people all over the world. , which is truly world-renowned.”

"Titanic" won the world's first box office. Anyone who talks about this movie will remember the director's name, Chen Mubai.

Moreover, the quality of the movie itself is high, and several classic scenes and lines were created. The scenes that were swiped on the screens of the major short video platforms were all imitated from the plots in the movie.

"This summer, after everyone knows the schedule of "Resident Evil 2", as far as I know, several movies have directly postponed the originally scheduled schedule, just to avoid you, haha."

Lu Fang laughed: "Last time, "Iron Man" and "Titanic" were not avoided. You have seen the fate of those film studios. They don't want to repeat the same mistakes again, and you are too famous now, so avoid the edge for now."

"." Chen Mubai was a little helpless, why did he feel like he had become a big villain?

so despised

"By the way, the filming of "Captain Huaxia" has been completed, and I have been working on it for a while in post-production. I am waiting for you to see if the special effects are up to standard." Lu Fang added.

"I saw it, it's pretty good." Chen Mubai said.

"That's fine. This year, there will be one film for the summer vacation, one for the National Day, and then there will be Christmas and Spring Festival. There will be works in several major schedules." Lu Fang told Chen Mubai about the recent situation.

Several works in cooperation with Solomon are also in production. Mubai Entertainment has opened several shooting lines at the same time, just to make these superhero movies come out as soon as possible, and then launch "Avengers" to establish the superhero universe. .

Once this goal is achieved, their weapon against Hollywood will be completed. In fact, what surprised Lu Fang the most is "Titanic". Became a focal point!

Originally, in the plan, the superhero universe might need to be formed, relying on the binding of the heroes and the company to let everyone know them, but unexpectedly got a surprise, which greatly promoted their planning process.

With the popularity of Mubai Entertainment, Mubai Cinemas has also become stronger, and many theaters have been acquired all over the world, which has strengthened its strength.

It is this kind of rapid development that makes AMV and other film and television companies have a crisis mentality, because Chen Mubai can really influence them, not a gimmick.

As the company grows and there are more and more works, the rest of the investment works are irrelevant, while the main investment works are more critical, so the choice of schedule is very important.

One is to avoid the works of their own company, and the other is to increase the influence of the works and try to get as much box office as possible.

In the Chinese market, they encountered very little resistance, because there were not many people who could beat them, and the resistance was much higher in foreign countries, where strong works from various countries might collide.

However, in view of the popularity of "Titanic", they are currently avoiding Mubai Entertainment. No one is stupid, and committing crimes against the wind is not courting death?

"I'm in charge of the later stage of "Captain Huaxia", and I will also participate in the supervision of those works. Don't worry about this, it will definitely not hinder you." Chen Mubai patted his chest.

"You do things, I don't worry." Lu Fang smiled.

"Wait next year, all the superheroes in the first stage should come out, then I can shoot "The Avengers" first." Chen Mubai looked forward to it.

Lu Fang interrupted his fantasy: "Are you thinking about next year now? You will participate in the Berlin Film Festival in the second half of the year. I hope you can win the Golden Bear Award."

"It's useless to think too much. It's God's will to win the award. Anyway, I have already finished the work, and the rest will be handed over to the judges. However, the score of this film will indeed be a bonus item."

Chen Mubai suddenly showed a hearty smile: "Look, "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" is because of its good grades, but the award was questioned, and "Titanic" is more famous. If it is not for the quality surpassing it, I am afraid that this award will only win the award." If it can be given to it, the Berlin Film Festival Organizing Committee is also afraid of becoming the next [Oscar].”

"That's true." Lu Fang opened his eyes wide and nodded: "In this way, our chances of winning are too great. This time Oscar has indeed completely become a stepping stone for us. I'm afraid they are already desperate."

Chen Mubai shrugged: "Who told them to blackmail me?"

Lu Fang smiled lightly and said, "If you let them know the ending, I'm afraid they won't do it. Who would know that you really made an epic masterpiece?"

Chen Mubai's mentality is still very stable. After all, "Titanic", which has a good quality and box office, is not afraid of competition at all.

"Yo, I've become more handsome, and my muscles have become stronger."

Chen Mubai looked at Qian Duoduo's muscles and made fun of it.

"Hey, I've been crying to death during this time. I'm not allowed to eat this or that. I'm almost starved to death."

Qian Duoduo cried with a bitter face: "If it wasn't for making this movie, I would have collapsed. Fortunately, the effect came out, and my efforts were not in vain."

Exercise every day, and then match it with nutritious meals to shape your body and muscles. It is really difficult to spend a lot of money.

He couldn't eat more of those tasteless boiled meat and vegetables. Thinking of the days when he first started, it was too difficult for him.

However, the effect was obvious, the muscles were indeed developed, and the filming officially began.

Now, the movie is about to be released, and as the lead actor, he wants to start promoting the movie.

This is the second superhero movie to be released. Mubai Entertainment attaches great importance to it and invests a lot in publicity. Audiences all over the world have seen this overwhelming publicity.

Many people who love this kind of work also want to see what kind of person and ability the second superhero will have.

The last "Iron Man" is still fresh in everyone's memory, I hope "Huaxia Captain" will not disappoint!

In the trailer, anyway, you can see the muscles and the fighting in some scenes. Unlike the cool armor of "Iron Man", he doesn't seem to have any special abilities, and he has great fists and kicks.

In comparison, it seems that Iron Man is a war scum?

More specific content can only be understood through the movie. The villain in this movie is a bit scary, unlike a human, a skull

After the promotion of "Captain Huaxia" started, the movie's release date was finalized.

Pre-sale box office sales are very good, this is the strength of science fiction movies.

Most of the people who come to see this movie come for the special effects, which is a little different from watching "Titanic". Therefore, in foreign countries, the pre-sale box office of this movie is very good.

Under the eyes of everyone, the movie is released!

For the premiere, the film's screening rate is basically the highest in the same period, and the attendance rate is not bad.
