Chapter 675 A mediocre box office on the first day?Evaluation is out! (Two in one, please subscribe)

Premiere scene.

No one got up, and no reporter was pressing the shutter.

Everyone was still sitting where they were, with dazed expressions.Looking at the subtitles that emerged line by line, listening to the soul-stirring songs.Tears were running down many faces.

Especially some Hollywood actresses are covering their mouths tightly, tears have already covered their faces.

"And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on
Near far wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on”

When the singing sounded, many people who were holding back their tears also collapsed emotionally.

Everyone seemed to be holding a heavy stone in their hearts, and the scenes in the movie just now appeared in their minds: the desperate cry, the sad and beautiful band performance, the ruthless sea, the undignified survival, the Going to die with a heart like ashes.

Every picture is so vivid and so touching.

The most luxurious cruise ship ever.

Gorgeous love story.

An epic tragedy.

The sinking of the giant ship.

Every audience watching the movie can no longer use words to describe their inner feelings at this moment.

Just sit there blankly.

Let my shocking mind gradually calm down, but the more I think about it, the more I can't calm down.Especially under the exaggeration of the singing, the deep sadness in their hearts seemed to overflow, making them extremely uncomfortable.

"Is this Lin Xuan's romance movie?"

Finally, a reporter murmured, his eyes full of disbelief.

His words seemed to wake everyone up.

Next.

Applause suddenly broke out at the scene, there was no screaming, no cheering, no shouting, only applause, accompanied by the applause of many people crying.

The reporters who wanted to start mocking immediately after the movie ended didn't know what to do.Many people pressed the shutter in a hurry, hastily scrapped the previously prepared drafts, and prepared to re-write the news.

but.

When they wanted to write, they found that they didn't know how to write for a while.

They don't know where to review and judge such a movie.

……

Hollywood directors watched the premiere.

At this moment, everyone sat silently in place, their eyes full of complexity.

I don't know how long it took.

Gustav rubbed his jerky eyes: "I take it."

Jia Aisi shook his head, with unprecedented seriousness in his eyes: "It's the first time I've seen a romance film shoot to such a high level. In fact, when Lin Xuan was filming "Titanic", we were able to It is judged that it is a combination of love + disaster film. However, I did not expect Lin Xuan to shoot a thrilling height from the seemingly ordinary love film. The visual impact and soul shock are almost no less than any Other sci-fi blockbusters. Even after watching more sci-fi, fantasy, action and other special effects blockbusters, watching "Titanic" has a completely different sense of freshness and impact in my heart."

Everyone's face is full of surprise.

Even the eyes of several directors were red.

Each of them is a legendary director, what movie theme has not been filmed?Haven't seen any movies.It can be said that even the "Transformers" filmed by Lin Xuan at the beginning was only slightly novel in everyone's eyes.As for the plot, the camera... and many other aspects are almost full of slots.

But in the process of watching "Titanic", they were amazed several times.

suddenly.

Someone asked: "We won't lose, will we?"

Hearing this man's words, many people's hearts skipped a beat.

Their more than [-] legendary directors can be regarded as the top existence in Hollywood and even in the world.If he is defeated by a movie by Lin Xuan, then no one will lose face.

But soon, Gustav shook his head without hesitation and said: "How is it possible? Although Lin Xuan's movie is very good, but romance movies have never been a box office draw. What's the use of being good?"

Pete also nodded with a smile: "Staden, you are worrying too much. When we watched Gabriel's "My Lonely Life", we were also shocked and amazed, and even the word-of-mouth score was as high as 9.3, which is only higher than Jayce's movie. 0.1 points lower. But this type of movie is destined to be unloved by ordinary people. Maybe it will have a good reputation in the end, and it may even be shortlisted for several Oscars, but the box office has never been a strong point."

"That's right, how could we lose?"

"Although the movie is good, it is far from being compared with so many of us."

"No matter how high the box office is, can it surpass Gustav?"

"No matter how good its reputation is, it can't compare to Jayce."

"As for Oscar, Gabriel is also a mountain that Lin Xuan cannot surpass."

"That's right."

But even though everyone is talking about it.

But there are still some fluctuations in the hearts of several people.

Directors such as Gustav and Ferdinand, in particular, recalled the many amazing scenes when they watched "Titanic" just now, and they couldn't calm down for a long time.

But after a long time, everyone suppressed the tumbling in their hearts.

There are thirty-three mountains of them suppressing in all directions.

Lin Xuan, you can't turn the sky!
……

……

outside world.

After the premiere of "Titanic" ended, all kinds of news began to emerge on the Internet.

The first is gossip netizens.

China.

People who haven't seen it have asked:

"How? Has anyone seen it?"

"Tell me quickly, does it look good?"

"I'm not interested in romance movies."

"Christmas is not a holiday today, let's see it on the weekend."

As for the viewers who have seen it, start replying.

"nice!"

"Go and see it, you won't regret it."

"It's so shocking, I've never seen such a shocking love blockbuster."

"I cried to death."

"Me too, Brother Xuan really cried to death in every one of his movies..."

Of course, due to the particularity of the movie.The comments of Chinese netizens did not cause any waves in the world.

The real influence of this movie depends on the international audience.

……

North America.

Since the film schedule of "Titanic" is not low, and the publicity is quite strong, there are still many people watching it.

In a theater, after the premiere, many people came out with red eyes, and even many girls were crying, wiping their tears as they walked.

But most of the people who watch the movie are girls or couples.

After all, in the publicity of the outside world, "Titanic" is a love movie.

Seeing this scene, many people nodded secretly.

"It seems that Lin Xuan did a good job."

"Yes, it is probably an excellent love blockbuster that can touch so many people."

"Lin Xuan's directing ability is very strong, otherwise he would not be able to make "Transformers"."

"My girlfriend watched it too, and she cried a lot."

"My sister also went to the movie and said it was very good."

"But romance movies, I'm not interested."

"Me too, I don't like romance movies."

"Let's watch Chad's sci-fi blockbuster, it's pretty good."

……

Europe.

Many movie theaters also came out with many audiences with moist eyes.

There are also many girls who are emotionally fragile, even sitting on the chairs of the movie theater and crying bitterly.Especially in the UK, the home country of the Titanic, the impact on the hearts of audiences after seeing the movie is far greater than that of fans from other countries.

"It's so romantic and so tragic."

"The first half was so romantic, but the second half cried like a fool."

"The whole movie theater in the back is already crying."

"Obviously there is no sensationalism, but why am I so depressed?"

"I still can't stop the tears."

"When Ruth let go of Jack's hand and watched Jack sink into the cold sea, I couldn't help crying anymore."

……

Australia, island countries, India, Wanwan... In the premiere studios of almost all countries and regions, tearful audiences can be seen walking out of the theater.

People who walked out of the theater were all moved.

Such a scene was captured by many other movie fans and media reporters.

Someone said in surprise: "It seems that Lin Xuan's movie is very good."

Another person said: "It must not be bad, otherwise it would be impossible to touch so many people. But this is also normal, after all, Lin Xuan is the great director who filmed "Transformers", and the quality of the film he used to compete with Hollywood must be extraordinary And the type of this movie is a romance movie. What is a romance movie? There are life and death, love and hatred, and such movies are most likely to move girls who are not deeply involved in the world. Look, those who go to the movies today, More than [-]% are girls, and [-]% are couples. Therefore, as long as "Titanic" is a little more sensational, it is not surprising that everyone will cry."

Everyone nodded in approval.

After such an analysis, the vast majority of movie fans did not have much interest in the movie.Especially for movie fans in Europe and America, almost 80% of them like blockbuster movies with blood and passion.For romance movies, most people are really indifferent.Especially movie fans who still had a little expectation for "Titanic", after seeing the analysis that it is a touching love movie, they immediately gave up the idea of ​​going to the cinema to watch it.

"Romance movies are only suitable for innocent and innocent girls."

Some movie fans are sure.

This remark resonated with many people.

Especially seeing the girls who were moved after watching "Titanic" all over the world, everyone confirmed their inner thoughts.

"Let the girls watch."

"Yes, not for me."

"Maybe the movie isn't bad, but it's not my type."

"Especially this movie is three and a half hours long, God! No matter how good a romance movie is, for me, a person who likes blockbuster movies, I will go crazy in the cinema."

More and more people joined the discussion.

In particular, many people analyzed: the European and American media may set off another wave of cynicism next.After all, Lin Xuan's movie is moving and can impress girls, but it is not worthy of a confrontation with more than [-] legendary directors in Hollywood.

Especially "Titanic" actually invested 2.6 million US dollars!
So when the premiere is over, it's bound to be slammed by the haughty press.

but……

Strange things happened.

After the premiere, the mainstream media around the world seemed to fall silent.

One hour.

two hours.

three hours.

There was even no media coverage of the premiere of "Titanic" for a long time.Only a few less well-known media reported its release in ordinary language.

[Titanic is released today]

[Lin Xuan starts an official duel with Hollywood today]

【Titanic starts its premiere】

【Lin Xuan's romance movie is coming】

Unremarkable reports, mediocre content.This surprised many people.

"How can the media be so calm?"

"Yeah, that's weird."

"Could it be that Lin Xuan bought the media with money?"

"Buy the global media? How is that possible! No matter how rich Lin Xuan is, he can't do it. And if he is willing to spend money to buy the media, he bought the movie before it was released, and now?"

"But why is the attitude of the media so strange?"

No one knows.

At the moment, the major media companies and reporters are also feeling ups and downs.After watching the premiere of "Titanic", they were at a loss.They have no idea how they should cover this movie.

Praise?

Is such a romantic film worthy of their fanfare?What if the box office smashes?After all, there is no precedent for a box office explosion in the genre of romance films.

slander?

But after they watched the movie, they found that it was impossible to discredit such a movie that shocked them.

No one can make up his mind. In this case, it is better not to publish the report for the time being.

They are waiting.

Waiting for the release of the box office, waiting for the release of word of mouth.

Box office and word of mouth are the key to determining the future height of a movie.

Especially at this time, there was another surprise: due to Christmas, the global movie theater market was too hot, and Rotten Tomatoes was actually overwhelmed by the swarming crowd, and it took a long time to recover.

Rotten Tomatoes had to temporarily close the website, and issued an announcement: the website is under repair and is expected to reopen tomorrow.

This means that many netizens who originally wanted to watch the ratings of "Titanic" had to close the website.

Time flies by like this.

soon.

The first day has passed.

With global attention, everyone is waiting for the box office on the first day.

"How much? How much?"

"Did you come out?"

"Why haven't you come out yet?"

"I don't know how much the box office will be."

"Romance movies are definitely not high."

"Haha, China's box office on the first day is expected to explode. But globally, it's not necessarily so."

"..."

in the expectation of the people.

Box office statistics around the world come out:
"Titanic", the world's premiere box office was 2686 million (excluding Huaxia).

The box office on the first day exceeded [-] million, which is a super high result for a romance film, far surpassing the first-day box office record set by previous romance films.

Even this box office ranked second in the world's single-day box office during the golden Christmas season, just below the legendary Hollywood director Chad's "Bright Day", surpassing another legendary director Bartley's film "On a Chair". The Old Man".But Bartley's movie was not aimed at the box office, it was just a literary film, so everyone didn't find it strange.

For a romance, "Titanic" had a pretty good first-day box office.

However, the box office of 3 million was overshadowed by the legendary Hollywood directors.It should be noted that when Gustav's "The Lone Ranger 6700" was released, the box office on the first day was as high as [-] million, which was nearly twice the box office of "Titanic"!
"The box office is pretty good."

"Yes, this result is quite impressive."

"According to this result, the final box office of "Titanic" has a probability of reaching 6 million. As a romance film, it is already successful enough."

"A small miracle."

Don't think that the box office of 42 million US dollars is bad, it is as much as 99 billion in Chinese currency!This result is enough to kill [-]% of the directors in the world.Even most of the movies of most legendary directors can't achieve this score.After all, a movie with a box office of [-] million US dollars can break into the top [-] box office rankings in global film history.

As for making a romance film reach 6 million US dollars, it is even more difficult.

Because of this, many people were secretly surprised when they saw the box office of "Titanic" on the first day.

"Lin Xuan does have some skills."

"Unfortunately, it's not enough to compete with Hollywood."

"It's not enough? It's too far away, okay?"

"Defeated, Lin Xuan lost."

"It will definitely fail. Do you really think that he can beat so many directors in Hollywood?"

"Let's go... Lin Xuan will leave Hollywood when "Titanic" is released."

"It's a pity. As a European, I still hope that Lin Xuan can stay in Hollywood. After all, his film company is the first non-North American Hollywood company."

……

At the same time, Huaxia netizens were almost outraged.

Because "Titanic" had a box office of 3.8 million Chinese dollars on its premiere day in China!
How much is it in dollars?
5428 million dollars!
In other words, if the international box office is included, the box office of "Titanic" on the first day is as high as 8114 million US dollars!
The box office on the first day exceeded [-] million!

Properly swept the world!
But now, because Huaxia was not included in this duel, Lin Xuan's movie box office looks inconspicuous.

"Ahhh, I'm so pissed off."

"What the hell, if China's box office is counted, Brother Xuan crushes the world!"

"Why is it not counted as Huaxia box office?"

"Those Hollywood directors are so shameless!"

"Made, I'm about to explode with anger."

"It's too bullying. Originally, so many Hollywood directors confronted Brother Xuan, it was unfair to Brother Xuan. Now they are still restricting Brother Xuan at the box office, it is simply shameless."

Even in the industry, there was a sigh of relief.

Everyone knows that under such circumstances, Lin Xuan's Second World and even the Chinese film industry are doomed not to break into Hollywood.

……

in Hollywood.

When seeing the box office of "Titanic" on the first day, many directors secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they have known for a long time that the box office of this movie is unlikely to be a big hit, but before the box office comes out, many people are still a little uneasy.

After all, no one can say for sure about the box office.

"Well, it's about the same as I estimated."

"On the first day, the box office was more than [-] million. Lin Xuan is quite remarkable."

"Yes, even if he loses this result, it won't be too embarrassing."

"Even everyone thought he would lose a lot, but now it seems that even if he loses, he won't lose much."

"It's definitely not going to lose money, have you guys forgotten the box office in China? With the box office in China, not only will "Titanic" not lose money, it will even make a lot of money. What a miracle. The investment of a film is as high as 2.6 US dollars The romance film, which actually made money in the end, is there any reason for this? Fortunately, Gustav said that this bet did not include the Chinese market. Otherwise, we might capsize in the gutter."

"The Huaxia market is terrible."

The directors let out a long sigh of relief.

Especially seeing that Huaxia's first-day box office reached more than [-] million U.S. dollars, many people were suffocated, and then secretly rejoiced.

……

The super high box office of "Titanic" in China also caused quite a stir internationally.

But in the end everyone returned to calm.

So what if China's box office is higher?

To lose is to lose!

Since the bet says that China's box office is not included, then the rules must be followed.Even if many fans of Lin Xuan felt that he was wronged for losing, they had to admit it!

At this time, news suddenly came out.

"Rotten Tomatoes is back to normal."

All right?

Many movie fans were excited and flocked to Rotten Tomatoes.

As the world's largest movie review website, its professionalism is beyond doubt.Countless fans will find movies to watch on Rotten Tomatoes.

And the film reviews and scores on it, to a certain extent, represent the benchmark of the quality of the film.

When the premiere of "Titanic" just ended, many people wanted to know how the film's rating was, but they didn't expect it to hang up at a critical moment.

"Look, what is the score of "Titanic"?"

"This movie has touched so many people, the score should be good."

"Estimated to be above 8 points."

"The ratings of romance films basically fluctuate between 6 and 8 points. If the rating of "Titanic" can reach 8 points, it can indeed be regarded as a good reputation."

Someone opened the website and asked, "Isn't Lin Xuan going to compete with Hollywood? Isn't 8 points not enough? After all, Jia Aisi's movie score has reached 9.4 points. If the score of "Titanic" is less than this score, it is lose."

A person next to him rolled his eyes: "Are you stunned? It would be great if "Titanic" scored 8 points. Do you still expect it to surpass Jia Aisi's movie? Think about the score of "Transformers" back then. With only 8.5 points, it still has the reputation of pioneering the sci-fi genre of mechs. So don’t daydream, not to mention that Lin Xuan has already lost at the box office, no matter how high the score is... no... What the fuck?"

The European and American netizen who was speaking suddenly widened his eyes and couldn't help but swear.

The friend next to him exclaimed even more: "Fa Fa Fa Fa... Ke?"

Both jaws almost dropped.

at the same time.

All over the world, I don't know how many people are screaming in front of the computer.

"God?"

"Fuck?"

"My God!"

Everyone looked at the ratings of "Titanic" on Rotten Tomatoes, and their hearts were filled with turmoil.

Website.

It shows impressively that "Titanic"——

Rating: 9.8 points.

Number of people: 18623 people.

The world seemed to be silent for a moment, and everyone looked at the score in a daze.

Someone rubbed their eyes.

Someone pinched his arm.

Someone frantically refreshes the page.

However... no matter what methods they tried, the score still remained unchanged at 9.8!
Or more precisely, a 9.85.

Even a kind of employee of Tomato.com is in a daze.

Someone said in a daze, "Why is it so tall?"

No one answered.

No sound.

Since the establishment of Tomato.com, its website has included more than one million movies, and almost all movies in the world can find its reviews on this website.

However, among the more than one million movies, the previous highest score was created by a film called "Life Project" 9.78 years ago, with a score of [-]. This score occupies the second place at the top of Rotten Tomatoes. For ten years, no second film has ever been able to shake its place.

Even the second-ranked movie has a score of only 9.56, which is a big difference from "Life Plan".

In the global film industry, most people think that the score of "Life Project" will probably not be surpassed by other movies in fifty years.

But now.

Its record was broken by "Titanic" without warning!

9.85 points!
Record breaking score!

The first in film history!

There seemed to be thunder roaring in the depths of everyone's mind, shaking their brains to buzz.

"seriously?"

"How is this possible? It's just a romance movie."

"Is there a bug after Rotten Tomatoes was repaired?"

"Did Lin Xuan cheat?"

"Is it the high scores from those excited girls who swiped the five-star praise?"

"..."

Countless questions emerged from everyone's minds.

Fans are at a loss.

The media reporters were dumbfounded.

Hollywood directors were taken aback.

No one believes it.

Even if the score of "Titanic" broke 9 points, they still think it is acceptable.But now, it's ridiculously high.

But soon.

Many people turned to the comment area, and they wanted to find out why fans who had watched the movie gave such an outrageous score.

There are 1.5 movie reviews, which means more than 83 people rated it, and more than 20% of them left comments.Compared with other movies with an average of only [-]% of the number of evaluations, the high ratio of the number of people who rated it once again shocked many people's hearts.

Love Flower: "Perhaps, only the four words of masterpiece can be worthy of this work."

God's Bento: "An absolute visual feast, I can't put it into words."

Angel's Love: "If there were ten stars, I would definitely give ten stars without hesitation. But the highest is only five stars."

Cat in love: "It turns out that love can also be romantic out of the sky. It turns out that love can really surpass everything. I am still trembling all over."

Castle Flower: "You jump, I jump, just relying on this sentence, let me sink."

Mission: "Romance? Disaster? I don't think it should be classified as any genre. In my opinion, it is a classic that surpasses all movies. Yes, surpasses any other movie."

Little Happiness: "A perfect movie, love, human nature, life and death... all aspects are very shocking. There is no second movie that can give me such a deep feeling."

Five stars.

Five stars.

Looking at the pages of reviews, almost all of them are five stars.

The only one or two four-star evaluations are cursing the director for making them cry miserably.

If it is said that the evaluation of ordinary people does not have a big feeling for everyone, then when everyone saw a few familiar names, their hearts finally couldn't restrain their beating violently.

Soul Purgatory!

The most famous film critic in the international film industry once again published a film review.

Headline: "If there's something epic about movies, it's just Titanic."

Just a title made many people change their faces.

Content: "I think before the premiere of the movie, not many people had high expectations for Lin Xuan's new movie, and neither did I. I was able to watch this movie because Lin Xuan had a bet with Hollywood, plus Lin Xuan Xuan has filmed "Transformers", a sci-fi film that surprised me. That's why I had a little expectation, hoping that Lin Xuan could surprise me again. But I never dreamed that in the next three hours, I will be amazed, moved, cry, angry, sad because of a movie...

It is indeed a romance film, but I didn't expect it to be able to describe love so sacred and great.

It is a disaster film, but the disaster it shows is not only visually comparable to future science fiction, but also vividly portrays all human nature.

Its vastness, its greatness, its romance, its vision, and the humanity it portrays...any aspect makes me thrilling and soul-stirring.For the first time, I can't find a fault from a movie.It was also the first time that I didn't know how to start when I was writing a film review, and in the end I only wrote a few pale words.If everyone wants to truly appreciate its greatness, I think it can only be in the cinema.

So be it.

Ratings are as follows:

Special effects: 10 points.

Plot: 10 points.

Average: 10 points.

The first 10 of my career and maybe the last. "

Below the evaluation of "Purgatory of the Soul", there is another film review of "Servant of God" by another internationally renowned film critic.

Servant of God: "Great movie! Great love! Great humanity...Three greatnesses may represent my inner feelings at this moment. There are two old people embracing each other to die when the ship sinks, a mother beating her child to sleep watching the sea water gradually submerge, a band playing on the deck, and a designer dying in despair. Too many touches and shocks to create This great movie."

Then below.

Once again a top film critic named "Movie Assassin" left a review.

Movie Assassin: "A great work is generally piled up with countless classics. I won't repeat the classics of the movie, because too many film critics have already analyzed it many times. Here, I only say other things. One thing: the music. I've never seen a movie that fits the music so well, it's a creation like no other. It's no exaggeration to say that when the intro music plays, when the final theme song plays, that For a moment, I seemed to feel the cleansing of my soul. It can be said that just the melody of the music is enough for me to give this movie a perfect score."

Internationally renowned film critics emerged one after another.

This time, they didn't take the money.

This time, they are willing.

And this time, almost each of them left the highest evaluation in their careers.

for example:

Epic movie!
Great work!
Unparalleled creation!
Every word of evaluation holds "Titanic" to the highest position.

Unprecedented situation!
In the global film industry, looking at the subversive scores and super high evaluation of "Titanic" on Rotten Tomatoes, I don't know how many people showed dumbfounded expressions.

"How could this be?"

"My God, what the hell happened?"

"Didn't you say that 'Titanic' is just a movie for women?"

"Epic movie? Great work?"

"Are the film critics crazy?"

After reading these comments, many people recalled the scene where countless people burst into tears at the premiere of "Titanic", and everyone finally had another idea in their hearts.

Especially those in the film industry, their hearts trembled.

Because they all know that with such seemingly absurd but factual scores and movie reviews, the next big event in the global film industry may happen that even they dare not imagine.
