my superstar girlfriend

Chapter 331 The beginning of the rise of animated films?
"The Truman Show" not only makes a powerful satire on morality, human feelings, and the inconsistency of the world, but also criticizes the value of "media omnipotence", using a virtual perfect world similar to "Utopia" to imply the "caged bird" style of survival and sorrow.

This film undoubtedly made many viewers fall into thinking.

The production structure and plot setting of the whole film are amazing.

After the film was released, it naturally received rave reviews.

Whether it is the media, film critics, or movie fans, they all give extremely high praise.

However, this film does not show the inevitable law of literary and artistic films: applause but not sit down!

The film was well-received and the box office was extremely high.

On the first day of its release, the single-day box office broke [-] million, and it undisputedly won the single-day box office champion.

If the first day of release is based on Mu Chen's screenwriter, Zhang Gang's director, Zhao Jin, Jiang Qin, Chen Dao's box office appeal, and the support of awards from major film festivals around the world.

Then, on the second day of its release, the box office did not decline, and the attendance rate continued to rise, and that was due to the film itself.

Even after the May Day holiday, the box office of the film is still strong.

In this way, it is obviously impossible to rely on the box office appeal of Mu Chen and others, as well as the publicity stunt of the film.

The long-term box office depends on the film itself.

And the so-called commercial blockbuster that was released at the same time obviously couldn't do what they called the "literary film", and it has been under its pressure all the time, without any chance of turning over.

The domestic box office is gratifying, and foreign countries are also staged one after another, and the box office response is also very good.

Among them, many regions won the single-day box office champion, and even won it for several days.

"The global box office of "The Truman Show" may hardly break one billion dollars." Chen Fuhai said with some regret.

"Old Chen, your appetite is getting bigger and bigger! For such a literary film, your goal is to exceed one billion at the global box office." Mu Chen said with a smile.

Chen Fuhai froze for a moment, then laughed.

The box office of this film has been soaring all the way, he even forgot that it is a literary film.

It is not that it is difficult for literary films to obtain high box office.

But compared to those commercial blockbusters, it is indeed much worse.

A Chinese film, without the familiar Chinese Kung Fu, can earn hundreds of millions of dollars at the box office abroad.

This is probably unimaginable in the past.

In other words, it is unimaginable for other film and television companies.

The box office of this film is much higher than that of "Resident Evil".

Judging from the current box office trend, the domestic box office should exceed 20 billion Chinese dollars, while the North American box office may exceed [-] million U.S. dollars, and Europe and other regions are estimated to be around [-] million.

It is indeed impossible to break one billion dollars.

But such a box office has already blinded the eyes of countless people.

Before that, apart from a few sci-fi films, the only Chinese-language film that achieved international box office was Mu Chen's "The Love of Ghosts".

What's more, "The Love of Ghosts" is at most a joint venture film, not a Chinese-language film.

Therefore, "The Truman Show" should be the first non-Chinese-language blockbuster to achieve a very high international box office.

The film became popular, and the world exploded.

And Zhao Jin, who is the leading actor, naturally also has a soaring popularity.Although he is not like Chen Dao who won an Oscar for this film.However, his acting skills in the film have also been recognized by fans all over the world.

"Before, I asked Director Zhang for his opinion. The company is planning to shoot "Jurassic Park 2"." Chen Fuhai said, "This film is going to be made into a 3D film."

Mu Chen nodded. After "Avatar", 3D movies became popular all over the world. Nowadays, any movie with a relatively large investment will be made in 3D.

"Jurassic Park" is also considered a very valuable IP in the hands of Chenxi Film and Television, and it is imperative to shoot a sequel.If Zhang Gang hadn't thought about an addiction to literary films, it would have been on the agenda long ago.

Even if the sequel is not as good as the previous one, it can definitely bring Chenxi Film and Television extremely high profits.

Afterwards, Chen Fuhai and Mu Chen discussed the follow-up plan of Chenxi Film and Television.

To be precise, it was actually Chen Fuhai who was speaking and Mu Chen who was listening.

Mu Chen seldom interfered with the company's affairs, not to mention focusing on Hollywood now.

"Many people are asking, does Chenxi Film and Television have plans to go public?"

After finishing speaking, Chen Fuhai was about to leave, but he seemed to think of something again, and turned his head to ask about Mu Chen.

"Chenxi Film and Television has no shortage of funds." Mu Chen shook his head and said, "I'm not going to let Chenxi Film and Television go public. At least I don't have such a plan right now."

Mu Chen didn't say anything to death, but Chen Fuhai saw Mu Chen's thoughts.

Listing has the benefits of listing, but it also has constraints after listing.

In June, "The Truman Show" gradually dropped globally, and Mu Chen's guessed that the box office didn't make much difference. The domestic box office exceeded 20 billion, and the global box office exceeded [-] million.

Such a box office has also shocked the global film circle, especially the domestic filmmakers are even more envious.

This type of film can win such a high box office.

This is the rhythm against the sky!

Why can't we?
The heat of this film also gradually dissipated as the film was drawn.

However, the enthusiasm about Mu Chen, or the exposure rate of Mu Chen still continued.

A Chinese-language cartoon with an investment of more than 1 million U.S. dollars and more than one billion Chinese coins is scheduled for July [-].

With such a large investment, and it was an animated movie, it instantly ignited the topic.

You know, before this, even the box office of movies adapted from cartoons with big IPs had never reached a billion box office.

And Chenxi Film and Television, or Mu Chen directly invested one billion yuan to make an animated film.

How will he pay back?
Can he get his money back?
How dare he!
With such an investment, any fool can guess that this film is not only aimed at the domestic market, but also the international market.

Huaxia animation films have not even conquered the domestic market, how to conquer foreign markets?

Mu Chen is afraid that he is going to be killed this time!

However, Mu Chen's idea of ​​"to be planted" was rejected immediately.

When did Mu Chen fall?
Whoever thought he was going to fall was not beaten in the face.

Nowadays, many movie fans already had some blind trust in Mu Chen.

It seems that as long as there are films related to him, they will not be "planted".

There is no way, who let Mu Chen make his debut, so far, he has produced countless works, but none of them has failed.

Even if the word-of-mouth of some films is not satisfactory, the box office is extremely good.

Whether Mu Chen is directing or writing a screenplay, there is not a single film that loses money.

Of course, there are naturally some worries.

After all, Tian Peng, the director of this animated film, had a box office of just over 1000 million for his previous investment of over [-] million "Magic Pupils".

Although the investment of more than [-] million yuan must have great moisture, it cannot be denied that it was an animated film that made investors lose their money.

Why Mu Chen asked him to direct also made many people puzzled.

Of course, there are worries and expectations.

"kungfu Panda"!
Just looking at the title of the film is full of Chinese style.

Gongfa is the quintessence of China, and pandas are the national treasure of China.

What would a panda with kung fu be like?

The publicity has gradually begun, and the trailer is naturally indispensable.

Although the trailer is only about 2 minutes long and does not reveal too much content, the picture quality presented in the trailer is absolutely amazing.

There is no doubt that the picture quality is several blocks away from the best domestic animated films before, and it is definitely not far behind those Hollywood animated films.

It is said that the special effects of this cartoon have reached the acme of technology today, and no one will deny it.

The picture quality is excellent, the special effects are amazing, and the character design of the film is also very distinctive.

As for the story, of course there is nothing to worry about.

After all, Mu Chen wrote the script of this film.

Perhaps, "Kung Fu Panda" is the beginning of the rise of Chinese animation films.

Perhaps, it is also the beginning of Chinese animation films going to the world.

The promotion of this animated film is in full swing, and the post-production of Mu Chen's new film "Iron Man" has been completed, and the file will be finalized immediately.

On August [-], it will be released simultaneously worldwide.

It's just a fixed file, but it also excited many fans around the world.

This film is Mu Chen's first 3D film after "Avatar".

After "Avatar", 3D movies also appeared, but those were all works that were once popular and made money, and the response was mediocre, and there were even constant criticisms.

Mu Chen released another 3D movie, and the quality naturally won the trust of movie fans all over the world.

After the file was finalized, the publicity was gradually launched, but the intensity was not great.

"It seems that you are recovering well."

Mu Chen looked at Mu Ze who was wiping away his sweat after punching, and said with a smile.

"Hollywood contacted me again." Mu Ze looked at Mu Chen and asked, "What's your opinion?"

"If you want to shoot, then shoot." Mu Chen said, "If you don't shoot, then don't shoot. How dare they sue you for breaking the contract? What do you think, just do what you want, there is no need to worry."

Mu Ze was shot, although James instigated it behind the scenes, but the film crew is not responsible for it?

That play had to stop because of it.

For investors, this can be regarded as a disaster without any reason, and the loss is not small.

As for whether he asked James for compensation, Mu Chen didn't know.

However, if Mu Ze went back to film, he might have suffered a lot of losses before, but with the gimmick of this matter, the film's popularity is already established, and the box office should not be too bad.

"I'm going to go back and finish filming this film." Mu Ze said, "If I don't make it, although it is understandable, I will inevitably lose my reputation. In addition, the most important thing is that I am afraid that after this escape, I will leave a psychological shadow .”

Mu Chen nodded.

He naturally supported Mu Ze's choice.

After filming that movie, the shadow of being shot may fade away.

But if he avoids this movie, then the shadow shot left by the shot will accompany him in every movie after that.

This might just be a possibility.

But avoiding this possibility is undoubtedly the best choice.

Mu Chen is an action actor after all.

It is impossible for him not to take on gun battle scenes in the future.

After finally getting to the present, Mu Ze is unwilling to back down.He wants to go further.

"When are we going?" Mu Chen asked.

"A few days later!" Mu Ze thought for a while and said, "Before I'm going to go to the United States, I'll go back to my hometown to have a look."
