Huayu Zhihao

Chapter 232 Chen Hao VS Li Press
""Taken" won a total of 5 million yuan at the box office in the first five days of its release!" Chen Xiangang said happily.

"Taken" is a movie made by my boss, the higher the box office, the greater the revenue of Haotian Cinemas, and it also proves that Chen Hao's future is more and more limitless!

"Okay, I got it!" Chen Hao said happily upon hearing this.

The first-week box office of RMB 1685 million broke Chen Hao's first-week/single-week highest box office record in the mainland!
And judging from the first week's box office results, the final box office of "Taken" should be able to exceed 4000 million yuan, or even higher!
Currently, "Harry Potter 2003" is the 2 million box office champion of the mainland in 5222. The box office performance of "Taken" is likely to impact this champion position!

However, Chen Hao was just happy for a while. Now there is a ceiling in the box office in the mainland. No matter how high the box office of "Taken" is, it is estimated that it is impossible to exceed 6000 million yuan.

This result is far from the 2.48 million of the National Teacher's "Heroes", the gap is too big, and Chen Hao really can't arouse much interest.

What's more, "Taken" has already earned 1.21 million US dollars in North America and 2.02 million US dollars worldwide. For the time being, the box office in the mainland can only be said to be better than nothing.

However, the higher the box office, the better, after all, the more income, and the fact that he can prove his box office appeal in the mainland, so that he can stand shoulder to shoulder with the three directors as soon as possible!
Especially Feng Dapao, this guy caught Chen Hao not being as good as him at the box office in the mainland, and this time "Taken" is likely to shut him up!

Chen Hao laughed for a while, then put it down, and continued to start the post-production of "The Ninth District"!

When the new week's box office results come out, the media will naturally focus on reporting, especially "Taken" is well-known, and everyone wants to know its box office performance.

"Taken's box office in the first week is 1685 million RMB!" --- Reported by Sohu Entertainment
""Taken" swept the army and won the championship!" --- Netease Entertainment
"After 17 months, Chen Hao once again won the mainland weekly box office rankings!" --- New Wolf Entertainment
……

As expected, "Taken" won the weekly box office championship without any suspense in the first week of its release!
After all, "Taken" took the lead in North America and the global box office, and Chen Hao landed in the mainland again after more than a year, and "Big Man with Great Wisdom" did not perform well at the box office.

In this week, "Taken" didn't even have a decent opponent. It would be strange if it didn't win the box office champion next week!
All that matters now is the coming week, when how "Taken" does at the box office will determine its final annual box office ranking.

Because on Friday of this week, the superhero blockbuster "The Incredible Hulk" directed by Li Press will be screened in major theaters in the mainland.

"Hulk" can be said to have cost Li Yin a lot of hard work, but the final film was criticized by the media.

It has also been drawn in North America, with a final box office of 1.32 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office has just exceeded 2 million U.S. dollars.

And its production cost is as high as 1.37 million US dollars, obviously Universal and Marvel are going to lose money!
In other words, as the three Chinese directors currently developing in Hollywood, after Wu Baige's "Wind Talker" was defeated, Li Yin also encountered Waterloo!
Next, the eight major Hollywood companies estimate that it will be impossible for Li Yin to take over A-level productions in a short time!
By the way, John Woo found work again after "Windtalker", he directed a sci-fi film "Memory Rift" wrapped in an action movie coat!
The filming budget of "Memory Rift" was originally more than 1 million US dollars. The director of the film was originally locked in Brett Reiner, who is famous for "Red Dragon", but later he temporarily changed his mind to take over the new version of "Superman". The director changed people at the last minute of his work.

In the end, Paramount had to sign Wu Baige, who is good at directing action movies, but the budget was suppressed to 6000 million US dollars.

The film stars the new Batman Ben Affleck and Uma Thurman from "Kill Bill". The investment is not too small. It can be said that it is Wu Baige's last straw!
The film will be released on Christmas this year, and it is very likely that it will be released on the same day as Chen Hao's "The Ninth District"!
If "Memory Rift" does well at the box office, then Wu Baige can continue his Hollywood journey, but if this film fails again, then he has to go back home!
But Chen Hao knew that this "Memory Crack" was Wu Baige's Hollywood box-sealing work!

Americans are prejudiced against people of color, and they have less tolerance for them. They screwed up two films in a row. If they were white, they might have a comeback.

But as a director of Huaxia, you don't have a third chance, and you can't even do it if you don't do more than three!

This is Hollywood, naked Hollywood!It can't bring benefits, it can only be kicked away!

"Taken" won the box office championship in the first week, and the media reported it for a while, and then they turned the focus to the hype of Chen Hao VS Li Press.

I want to attract the public's attention through the direct box office confrontation between the two.

"Chen Hao VS Li Yong! A supernova director meets a veteran movie master, who will win?" --Southern Weekend
""Taken" VS "The Incredible Hulk", the new and the old confront each other, who do you prefer?" --- Reported by Sohu Entertainment
"Chen Hao VS Li Press, comprehensive comparison and analysis of the outcome in eight aspects!" --- New Wolf Entertainment
"The North American box office of "The Incredible Hulk" surpassed that of "Taken", what will happen to the record in the mainland?" --- Netease Entertainment
……

Chen Hao, as a newly rising superstar director in the mainland, is naturally no stranger to everyone.

And Li Yin is one of the representatives of Chinese directors who are well-known in the world, and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" almost pushed him to the altar!

The highest-grossing foreign language film in North America so far, the Golden Globe Award and the Oscar Award for Best Foreign Language Film can be described as a double harvest of box office trophies!
The current situation is that an upstart, facing an old-fashioned director, is already very attractive, and coupled with the media's intentional guidance, it naturally attracts countless eyes and attention.

Not only the media and movie fans, but even the industry and major film companies have all focused their attention on this week's box office competition!
And from various analysis, it can be seen that Chen Hao is obviously the one who is looked down upon.

In terms of fame, Chen Hao is a fledgling, but Li Yin has been famous for a long time!
Compared with the investment, "Taken" invested 2000 million U.S. dollars, and "Hulk" was as high as 1.37 million U.S. dollars!
Compared with the lineup, Liam Neeson in "Taken" has been silent for a long time, and Downey is a drug addict.

Eric Bana of "The Incredible Hulk" just won the Best Actor from the American Film Institute, and Jennifer Connelly won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for his masterpieces "Once Upon a Time in America" ​​and "A Beautiful Mind"!
Compared with the results, "Taken" has 1.21 million in North America, and the current global box office is 2.02 million. "Hulk" is 1.32 million in North America, and the global box office has exceeded 2 million.

Compared with the schedule, "Taken" is already in its second week of release, while "Hulk" Hulk has just been released!
It can be said that Chen Hao is at a disadvantage. Of course, Chen Hao also has three advantages.

First, in North America, "Taken" has a better reputation than "Hulk".

Second, in the mainland, it can be regarded as Chen Hao's home field.

Third, "Taken" has 7 days a week, while "The Incredible Hulk" only has 3 weekends!
As for whether these three advantages are useful or not, I don’t know. After all, even if you have 7 days, it has just been released, and "Hulk" is a blockbuster superhero special effects movie, which is one of the audience's favorites.

However, following the media's endless hype, both Chen Hao and Li Yong remained silent.

This kind of silence made the competitive atmosphere of "Taken" VS "Hulk" more tense.

Finally, amidst everyone's eagerly awaiting, the week finally passed, and the box office rankings for the first week of the two films' confrontation are freshly released!
　Thanks for the 100 tip from "Dry your hair well"!
