Chapter 453 The movie that swept across Asia

""Infernal Affairs" had a box office of 5.3 million on its first day, becoming the first Chinese movie to break [-] million in a single day. Wei Xun once again set a new box office record for Chinese movies!"

"Jean Besson, the chairman of Cannes, was full of praise. The single-day box office was 5.3 million, and the attendance rate was as high as 69%. "Infernal Affairs" is a good movie you can't miss this year."

"Although we all know that Wei Xun has made great achievements in commercial films, directors, screenwriters and other fields, I still want to say that after watching the role of Chen Yongren, his acting skills are still underestimated by the public. When Chen Yongren plays, even if he is unshaven Greasy hair, but when he looks at you with those moist, sad eyes, you're absolutely caught up in it."

"What Wei Xun is best at is creating miracles one after another. I am optimistic that "Infernal Affairs" will win an award in Cannes! If "Saw" makes the world know the great director Wei Xun, then "Infernal Affairs" is Wei Xun's direction The beginning of a great international director."

Over the years, Huaxia Movies has been a big hit.

Years ago, there were the highly-reputed "I'm Not the God of Medicine" and the blockbuster commercial series "Detective Chinatown 2", but even if these two films broke 30 billion at the box office, their first-day box office was not as strong as "Infernal Affairs".

And don't forget that it's not the Spring Festival stalls yet. It can pull the box office of the small off-season in November to such an exaggerated height. All the theaters are now hiding at home and laughing.

High word-of-mouth + high box office + high-ranked films, such results are completely in line with the trend of big hits all the way.

Because there is no marketing word-of-mouth deception, so naturally there will be no overturning.

On the Professional Edition of Panda Ticketing Data, the line graph of various data of "Infernal Affairs" can be said to be soaring crazily.

On the second day, the box office of "Infernal Affairs" once again broke through 5 million, and won a single-day box office of 5.1 million.

Breaking one billion in two days!
It's so fierce!

Compared with the Spring Festival, summer and National Day files, they can all hit the box office. With such data, some industry even asserts that, together with "The God of Medicine" and "Tang Detective 2" a few years ago, the three films of Medal Media this year will be able to top the box office. One-third of the total box office of the Chinese film market!

Not to mention that Medal Media also has a global release of "Chain Saw".

However, when it came to the issue of "global release", many people began to realize a problem. Although "Infernal Affairs" was not released globally, it was released in all of Asia!

Now that the movie has been released in China for two days, both the public and the media in China have been praised by Qing Yishui, and even the box office has exploded, making people dumbfounded. So how is the reputation of "Infernal Affairs" in other countries?

Many people still care about the evaluation of foreign netizens.

Because a movie going abroad is also a kind of cultural export in a sense.

However, at the beginning, there were not many sporadic feedback on the Internet, and it seemed that "Infernal Affairs", which was a big hit in China, did not cause much splash in other countries.

"I'm in South Korea. There aren't many "Infernal Affairs" movies here. Director Wei is not very well-known here, but Zeng Wei and Chen Qiuheng have some fans. But it's normal, this country has always been very resistant to foreign culture. "

"It's okay here in Japan. The culture here quite likes gangster-themed movies. After watching the movie, some of my Japanese classmates said that Director Wei is so handsome, and even became a fan of Director Wei, haha."

"Well, "Infernal Affairs" is also very popular in Thailand. Maybe Director Wei filmed scenes in Thailand's Chinatown at that time. I was surprised that there are so many fans of him here."

In fact, this result can be expected.

The reason why the word-of-mouth and box office of "Infernal Affairs" exploded so quickly in China was the accumulation of Wei Xun's many high-repute films before, and it also represented the trust of Chinese audiences in him.

But after going abroad, without any basic movies, it can only rely on word of mouth to slowly ferment.

Some netizens were a little disappointed with the result.

Even the directors of several departments of Medal Media were actually a little disappointed.

So during the meeting, even if "Infernal Affairs" achieved a good score of one billion in China, everyone was still a little dissatisfied.

Medal Media, conference room.

"Don't be disappointed. The reason why "Chain Saw" has achieved good results in the world is because we took a shortcut and took the GM channel. This is a shortcut. In addition, this movie exploded in Hollywood. , it is relatively simple to export to the world.”

At the end of the meeting, Wei Xun smiled and said to Dong Zhen, Zou Min and the others: "Showing all of Asia is actually the focus of the next medal shift. We have to raise the goal to a higher level. A movie If the movies don’t work, just two, if two don’t work, then three, and we can always spread out the channels little by little.”

export international.

This is the next corporate goal of Medal Media.

"Infernal Affairs" is just an attempt.

Hearing Wei Xun's words, Zou Min and the others felt that they were full of motivation to lead a company out of the world. At present, who else has such strength or ambition except Medal Media?

Who wouldn't feel honored to follow such a powerful and capable leader like Wei Xun?
Scholar die for the confidant!

Following in his footsteps, everyone believes that the future of Medal can go higher and farther.

But sometimes how to put it, gold always shines.

Under Wei Xun's persuasion, Medal Media has already focused on domestic promotion and maintenance of "Infernal Affairs."

But under such circumstances, after a week, there were suddenly more discussions about "Infernal Affairs" on Facebook.

"I watched Huaxia's movie "Infernal Affairs" today, and it was amazing."

"I like Chen Yongren, a handsome and melancholy Chinese man. I am grateful to see such a good movie."

"Infernal Affairs was recommended by a friend. After watching it, it really makes my scalp tingle. It's so amazing, especially the eyes of the leading actor Chen Yongren, which makes people feel heartbroken."

"I heard that it is the new work of the director of "Saw", so I immediately went to watch "Infernal Affairs". It was very popular!"

In the newsletter, many netizens actually have no expectations for the feedback of "Infernal Affairs" released in other Asian countries.

After all, every country has its own culture. The delicate emotions of Chen Yongren and Liu Jianming, the pain of being bound by their identities, seem to be difficult for other countries to understand except for people from China.

But at this moment, shocking news suddenly came back to China.

""Infernal Affairs" has been added to the schedule in Japan, and it has a very good reputation. Now the film directed by Wei is being discussed on the forum."

"Wow, when I went to the company today, my Korean colleague asked me about Director Wei. She asked me if that handsome Chen Yongren had acted in any other movies."

"It's really a proud feeling to see your own country's films being praised in a foreign country."

"Although "Infernal Affairs" is not well-reviewed in the country where I stayed, the reviews are very good, and everyone is recommending it to each other. It's awesome. I think Director Wei will really become an international director in the future. He I definitely don't know how many girls from foreign countries have been conquered by a character of Chen Yongren."
