Chapter 559 I Have No Confidence
"Gone with the Wind" is a historical blockbuster film with huge cost, luxurious scenes and grand and realistic war scenes. With its commendable artistic achievements, it will definitely become a classic work in the history of film.

The investment cost of this film also broke the record set by Mu Chen, making it the film with the largest investment so far.

Of course, this film is estimated to be broken by Mu Chen soon.

The first half of the film is like an epic, recreating the decline of the prosperous plantation civilization more than 100 years ago, the wounded soldiers everywhere in Atlanta's Pentagon Square, the continuous fleeing, shooting, fire and other scenes are magnificent in scale and vivid in color.

And these, the scene is bigger than the original version, and the cost is naturally higher than the original version.

What's more, even if the scene is smaller than the original version, the cost is still huge.

After all, the price has long been different.To present something acceptable, the cost is much higher.

Relatively speaking, the cost of the second half will be much lower.

The second half is a sad psychological drama, which uses the power of drama to reveal the process of the heroine maturing in the conflict with her heart.

This is not a big scene, so the cost is naturally different.

The film was released shortly after the Oscars.

Only a few countries and regions have delayed the release.North America and China, the two largest film markets, were released at the same time.

In April, this schedule is actually not very good.

But with the popularity of the Oscars and the appeal of Mu Chen and Steve working together again, as soon as the film was released, countless fans were attracted to the theater.

In this schedule, there are no blockbuster films, so "Gone with the Wind" has the largest investment, and there is another gimmick of two big directors collaborating again. I don't know how much higher No.2 is.

"The box office is out." Harvey smiled and said to Mu Chen, "This film may be expected to break into the top three."

"Oh?" Mu Chen looked at Harvey in surprise.

Breaking into the top three is naturally the top three in the global box office list, but the annual box office list.

If you want to break into the top three, you need at least nearly $30 billion in box office.

Where does Harvey's confidence come from, is it just based on the box office on the first day?

"The box office in North America was 9000 million U.S. dollars. The box office in China also broke [-] million." Harvey said, "The box office in other countries and regions almost all won the single-day box office champion."

"If you want to break into the top three, it's not necessarily based on this alone. The durability of the film is very important." Mu Chen said.

"There are no competitive films in the same period, and the film's reputation is amazing." Harvey said.

"The box office in North America and other places may be good, but it's not bad if China's box office breaks 20 billion." Mu Chen shook his head and said.

He is not optimistic about the film's box office in China.

There are more and more blockbuster Chinese movies, and the quality is getting higher and higher, which has caused many Hollywood blockbusters to lose their advantage in China.

If it weren't for his Mu Chen's box office appeal, this kind of unacceptable Hollywood blockbuster would probably have no hope of breaking 20 billion.

As Mu Chen speculated, although "Gone with the Wind" has a good reputation in China, fans' enthusiasm for this film is not as popular as in North America and other places.

With Mu Chen's appeal in it, the box office only broke [-] million on the first day, which is really not great.

"Gone with the Wind" was released, and the novel "Gone With the Wind" adapted from the script was also released immediately.

And the sales volume of this novel is astonishing, and in the literary circle, the evaluation is also unexpectedly high. The words "classic" can be seen everywhere.

However, Mu Chen didn't care too much.

He stayed in Dream Films for a while, and then set off for Yanjing.

There are still some post-production of "Shading the Sky" that have not been completed.

Back in Yanjing, Mu Chen continued to work on his movie, while Li Ruoxi was still holding a concert.

She is definitely the hottest singer in the country right now.

In May, the post-production of "Shading the Sky" was completed.

The full name of the film: "Shading the Sky. Starry Sky Ancient Road"!
It is easy to pass the review, and now the above has relaxed a lot for movies.

The film passed the review and was immediately scheduled for July [-]th.

"Why do you always like to release your films in summer?" Marin asked Mu Chen.

"The time span is long enough!" Mu Chen said with a smile, "And most of my fans are students."

"No?" Marin said, "Why do I think your fans should be mostly people of our age?"

"How many people of our age have nothing to do to watch movies?" Mu Chen shook his head and said, "There are old people on the top, and young people on the bottom. The pressure is so great."

"The pressure is high, so I need to watch a movie to release it!" Marin said.

"Why do I feel that you are under a lot of pressure!" Mu Chen looked at Marin and said, "That's right. You're going to be a father soon, it's inevitable."

"What pressure do I have?" Marin said, "When the boy is born, can I still afford it?"

Mu Chen smiled and didn't mention this anymore.

It is not so much that Marin feels pressure because the child is about to be born, but it is better to say that there is suddenly more responsibility and responsibility of the father on his shoulders.

This is a kind of discomfort brought about by the change of identity.

He, Zhao Jin and others have actually experienced it, so they naturally understand.

"When will your movie be released?" Mu Chen asked.

The sequel to Marin's "Terracotta Warriors and Horses" was completed years ago, and now it has been almost half a year, and the post-production is also nearing completion.

"Not yet fixed." Marin shook his head and said, "I guess it's those few schedules."

Which dates?Naturally, there will be Mid-Autumn Festival, National Day, Christmas and New Year's Day, and Spring Festival stalls.

The sequel of "Terracotta Warriors and Horses" is more invested and the scene is bigger than the previous one.

With the first base, the expectations for this film are undoubtedly high.

A blockbuster movie must have a good schedule!

This is basically a law of domestic film and television companies.It is really rare to see a blockbuster movie released on a regular schedule like "Gone with the Wind".

"Is your film expected to surpass "Gone with the Wind"?" Marin then asked.

"Gone with the Wind" has been in theaters for nearly a month. Although it has not yet been drawn, the box office potential can already be seen.

There is no hope of breaking into the top three, but now it has broken into the top five.

China's box office broke 20 billion, and the box office in North America and Europe supported it. The global cumulative box office of the film exceeded 20 billion US dollars.

It may break $25 billion and rank fourth in the global box office list.

The failure of China's box office made this film no chance of breaking into the top three of the global box office list.

In fact, Mu Chen felt that it was already pretty good for the film to break 20 billion at the box office in China.

"Better than "Gone with the Wind"?" Mu Chen looked at Marin and said, "How dare you think about it! My goal for this film is only one billion dollars, and you have more than tripled it."

"One billion dollars?" Marin shook his head and said, "You have set such a goal for yourself, who will believe it?"

The global box office of "Titanic" broke through 30 billion U.S. dollars, ranking first in the global box office list.

"Covering the Sky" is Mu Chen's first film after this film.In the eyes of many people, Mu Chen's film must have broken the box office of "Titanic".

What's more, Mu Chen's film box office has not been less than 15 billion US dollars in these years.

"It's so cold up there!" Mu Chen sighed.

"Can I understand that you are pretending?" Marin said with a curled lip.

Mu Chen rolled his eyes.

Now it has broken the world's highest box office record twice in a row.The box office of each film is higher than that of the other. If there is a film that does not do well at the box office suddenly, countless media will immediately say what happened to him.

This is an invisible pressure.

Otherwise, "Shading the Sky" wouldn't have taken so long.

He really didn't have much faith in the film.

Whether it's word of mouth or box office.

Time passed quickly, and July [-] was getting closer and closer.

And Li Ruoxi's concert tour also came to Yanjing.

It's the last stand, but it's not the only one.

In the past few months, Li Ruoxi has held 21 concerts, one in some cities, and two or three in a row in some cities.

Yanjing will start three games in a row, making up 24 games.

Although there are more than one show in some cities, the venues are still full.

Like Yanjing's three concerts, the tickets have already been sold out.

Moreover, Yanjing's three concerts are also the largest in this tour.

Mu Chen was present at all three concerts.

However, he doesn't appear on stage much.Just sang a song alone, and then sang a song with Li Ruoxi.

Even so, it drives his fans crazy.

Mu Chen's voice recognition may not be that high, but his singing skills are not bad.

It's just that many people now only remember his identity as a film director, and in the future he is also a person who has released music albums.

He rarely sang on stage now.

There is no doubt that Li Ruoxi's concert tour this time has achieved great success.

"Have you enjoyed it?" Mu Chen asked Li Ruoxi with a smile.

"I miscalculated how addicted I am to singing." Li Ruoxi shook her head and said, "In the first few performances, the interest was extremely high, but afterward, it became purely a responsibility."

"Then the world tour concert we talked about just ended?" Mu Chen said with a smile.

He could see that Li Ruoxi was a little physically and mentally exhausted by these twenty or so concerts.

"Why did you die young?" Li Ruoxi said, "Didn't you say that after filming "League of the Guardians", you will rest for a few years? By then, you must be interested!"

Mu Chen nodded and smiled.

He's not really interested in going on a world tour.

However, if Li Ruoxi wants to drive, he is also very happy to accompany her.

These years, he has somewhat ignored Li Ruoxi.

"When is "Guardian Alliance" expected to launch?" Li Ruoxi then asked.

"September!" Mu Chen said, "Preliminary preparations, actors' schedules, still need some time."

Li Ruoxi nodded.

The biggest difficulty of this film is probably the adjustment of the actor's schedule.

"The Guardians" is definitely the movie with the strongest cast ever.Even the main theme movies with all-star casts in China are hard to compare with.

Among other things, international first-line stars are at least in double digits.

This is also an important reason why this film will become the largest investment.
