my superstar girlfriend

Chapter 541
Is there a film with both awards and box office?

Naturally there is.

However, definitely not many.

What's more, Mu Chen's filming of "Titanic" was done in a hurry, which seemed to be "in a rush".

This kind of "rush" film, taking into account both box office and awards, is not an ordinary difficulty.

Therefore, many people are not optimistic about the box office of this film.

Although this film almost swept the Oscars, there is no doubt that it is a classic, but are there still few classic films that hit the box office?
It may not be another film that is well received or not!
Many people who are not optimistic about this movie feel that Mu Chen is going to be slapped in the face this time.

$20 billion?
This is the minimum standard that Mu Chen set for himself.

For many, this is too much to expect.If Mu Chen said a billion dollars, no one would doubt it.

With reference to the original version, the special effects technology is better than that of the original version, and the market potential is even greater than when the original version was released.

If the box office is not as good as the original version, what is it if it is not a failure?
In terms of awards, Mu Chen didn't feel that he was a success, but he wasn't a failure either.

Even Mu Chen felt that it was more successful than the original version.

After all, Mu Chen was shortlisted for Oscars before the film was released, but the original version was released after it was released, so its influence has grown a lot.

Mu Chen's new film "Titanic" is about to be released. Mu Chen threatened that the box office will be at least 20 billion US dollars, which instantly caused a surprising topic.

"The box office of 20 billion US dollars is a hurdle, and it may not be possible to release one in a few years. However, Director Mu Chen is one of the most popular directors in the world, especially good at commercial films. Just look at the global box office list. , How much is he alone?"

"For the film "Titanic", he is confident that it will exceed US$20 billion, so it may not be higher. Those who are familiar with him know that he has always reserved a bit of what he says. Perhaps, it can really surpass "Avatar" , becoming the world's box office champion."

That's what Scorsese said when he was asked about Titanic.

At first hearing, it seemed that he was supporting Mu Chen, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt like he was setting Mu Chen on fire.

There is a little taste of killing.

What's more, those reporters misinterpreted Mu Chen's words.

Mu Chen said that failing to reach 20 billion US dollars was a failure.Not to say that "Titanic" will reach 20 billion US dollars.

20 billion US dollars is just a goal that Mu Chen set for himself.

Of course, Scorsese isn't the only filmmaker being asked about this topic.

"Two billion dollars is definitely a hurdle, and few people can cross it. If "Titanic" wants to pass it, it must set off a wave of global movie viewing. Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible to break the two billion dollars. "

"People go to high places, whoever goes to low places! Director Mu Chen's previous films such as "Sword Fairy", "War God" and "Guardians of the Galaxy" all broke 15 billion US dollars at the global box office. He gave himself this "" Isn’t it normal for Titanic to set a box office target of $20 billion?”

"Director Mu Chen is a person who is good at creating miracles, but it is not easy for a film to break the box office record of 20 billion US dollars. This is not only related to the quality of the film, but also has a great relationship with the market."

As soon as Mu Chen's words of "20 billion US dollars" came out, it sparked a global topic.

Many people in the film industry have given their own views on this.

Some believe it and some don't.

In any case, the film's publicity is getting bigger and bigger.

Judging from the publicity effect, once Mu Chen's "$20 billion" came out, it was better than sweeping the Oscars.

"Two billion dollars? You're not afraid of being slapped in the face!" Li Ruoxi smiled and said to Mu Chen.

"I'm talking about hoping so much, but not necessarily reaching that much." Mu Chen said with a curled lip.

The media misinterpreted what he said, but Mu Chen didn't explain it, nor did he bother to explain it.

What's more, if he explains it, the media will probably say that he has no confidence in his film.

"Actually, I'm quite optimistic about the box office of "Titanic". Besides, there are no competitors for the films released at the same time." Li Ruoxi said with a smile.

The film has not been released yet, but many people have seen it.

Li Ruoxi naturally saw it.

"Who can tell for sure?" Mu Chen said with a smile.

After "Titanic" was finalized, many Hollywood blockbusters couldn't avoid it, let alone domestic ones.

Therefore, the films released at the same time as the film are almost all cannon fodder.

Mu Chen's films have always overwhelmed the films of the same period, not to mention that this film swept the Oscars, and Mu Chen even said that if it did not reach the box office of 20 billion US dollars, it would be a failure.

Who wants to release such a film at the same time?
No one can live with money.

Without a decent competitor, it is naturally extremely beneficial to the box office of "Titanic".

On Friday, July [-]th, under the eyes of the public, "Titanic" will be released simultaneously worldwide.

Countless movie fans walked into the theater, wanting to see it quickly.

Because there are no decent competitors in the same period, the film schedule has reached a new high, whether it is domestic or foreign, breaking the record for film premieres in recent years.

Scorsese also entered the theater for the first time to watch this film.

I don't know if he wants to pick a thorn in the side, or he is just curious about this film.

In fact, when many of Mu Chen's films are released, they will attract many people from the film industry to watch them.

The movie starts shortly.

After the subtitles, what appeared in front of the audience was a record of a recent exploration team salvaging the wreckage of the Titanic in a certain sea area.

They salvaged a safe, and cheers rang out.

But when they opened the safe, there was only a picture book inside except for a puddle of muddy water. The mud on it was washed away with clean water, and people vaguely saw a naked sketch of a woman.

And that woman is the heroine of this movie, and the gem on her neck is the target of the exploration team: the heart of the ocean.

The salvage of the Titanic and the publication of the album also attracted the attention of many media.

The screen switched, and a 101-year-old lady exuding wisdom was busy at home. After seeing the news on TV, she asked the people around her to amplify their voices.

"I want to make sure, because the naked woman in the picture book may be me."

As these words were spoken, audiences who watched the movie in different places sighed in unison. They knew that the heroine had appeared, but it was only in the form of memories.

Time travels to 1912, when a completely one-to-one imitation of the Titanic with the "Dream Ship" appeared on the screen, as well as the fully reproduced images of that period, the busy docks and the costumes of people of different classes and occupations.

Looking at this, Scorsese's pupils contracted.

It was just the beginning, and he could see how well the film has mastered the details.

No wonder it was shortlisted for fourteen Oscars, no wonder it almost swept the Oscars.

The Titanic docked at the pier waiting to depart, the passengers on the ship waved goodbye to the passers-by and the relatives and friends who came to see them off, the well-dressed high-society guests strolling on the first-class cabin, the workers doing hard work on the pier, the bow wearing The crew members in white uniforms, poor poor passengers in shabby clothes in some specific areas, and rich young masters and noble ladies wearing top hats in luxury cars... just like the social beings of the early [-]th century.

These shots are amazing enough.

At this time, the heroine Ruth appeared.

Somewhere on the pier, Jack is playing cards with some friends.

After the card competition, Jack and his friends won the boat tickets and caught up with the cruise ship when they were about to depart
It's a three-hour movie, and after four, 10 minutes, or an hour, some viewers can't avoid feeling restless and lethargic.

The previous plot is a bit boring for many viewers.

But more viewers fell into the story.

Because the image of the characters is gradually full in the audience's heart little by little.

The movie continues.

After boarding the ship, the heroes and heroines Jack and Rose met and fell in love during the voyage, and after some special encounters on the big ship, under the inertial thinking of the captain Edward and the carelessness of the crew, they finally crashed into an iceberg. .

Seeing the big ship that was broken into three pieces and about to sink, all the movie fans couldn't help but gasp in amazement.

In fact, maybe even they themselves don't remember how many exclamations they have made since the film began to be screened, and they never thought that they would have such a great interest in a film.

At the beginning, the plot of the film may not be worthy of special praise. It is a love story of a luxurious postal road, living in an ivory tower, some delicate noble ladies, and a grassroots prince.

But it was this story that attracted them so deeply that they forgot to eat, and their emotions always fluctuated back and forth with the development of the plot.

But at this time, the big boat was silent, but it shocked everyone. .

The special effects of Mu Chen's films are always astonishing.

So is this film, of course.Mu Chen can say bluntly that it has improved a lot compared to the original version.

The visual shock strongly stimulates all audiences.

So realistic!
All viewers felt as if they had witnessed the silence of the Titanic.

In the face of disaster, human nature is fully revealed.

Every time a scene is screened, there will be various voices of astonishment from fans from time to time, amazed at the unbelievable realism of the movie screen.

When the two protagonists, Jack and Rose, jumped into the icy sea, they felt worried for them, saw the anger of the villain Carl, and saw countless people struggling in the icy sea, and finally died. Silence after silence.

Seeing this, Scorsese sighed.

His previous dissatisfaction completely dissipated.

This film is indeed better than my own "Dawn".
