Huayu Zhihao

Chapter 735 "2012" in Asia

"Are the actors ready?" Chen Hao asked, "Have you talked to them about the play?"

Lu Yang nodded and said, "It's all been said, and they are all ready at the designated location."

Now the crew of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" has entered the orangutan detention center. This is where Caesar's psychology gradually changes, connecting the past and the future in the plot.

Of course, all the orangutans were played by humans, all wearing motion capture suits and headgear.

"Then let's start!" Chen Hao said.

Lu Yang nodded when he heard the words, and then picked up the loudspeaker and shouted, "Everyone keep quiet, and we are ready to officially start filming!"

"The 82st scene of the 1nd scene of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes"

Caesar was sent to the detention center for hurting someone. He didn't like it here and wanted to go home, but Will obviously couldn't get him out immediately.

So, he could only stay in the detention center.

Caesar dislikes and is used to this place, but at the same time he is full of curiosity, because this is the first time he has lived with so many of his kind at such a close distance.

Therefore, when the orangutans were moving freely, Caesar walked into the place where the orangutans played for the first time through the passage on the iron cage.

When Caesar walked into the activity area, he found that some of the orangutans were climbing on the trees, some were squatting by the pool, and some were jumping on the rockery.

"Crack!" Chen Hao shouted, "Andy, this is the first time you are with so many orangutans, so you should show curiosity and caution, stop at the entrance of the cave, and then look around to make sure there is no danger , and then walk in."

"Okay, director!" Andy Serkis raised his hand to indicate receipt.

"Okay, let's do it again!" Chen Hao said.

"The 82st scene of the 1nd scene of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes"

Caesar stopped at the entrance of the cave, looked around, and then walked into the arena, but the activity area that was full of chimpanzee calls suddenly fell silent.

All the orangutans looked at Caesar.

Facing many gazes, Caesar moved slowly, and first walked past a huge iron cage with a King Kong inside.

When King Kong saw Caesar approaching, he slapped his chest and roared.

At the same time, an unusually strong orangutan, surrounded by several companions who were catching lice, saw Caesar in clothes and immediately roared, scaring away the several orangutans beside him.

Caesar wanted to play with everyone, so he picked up a bamboo ball and threw it to an orangutan, but the very strong orangutan jumped right over and smashed the bamboo ball.

Seeing this, Caesar dodged his eyes a little bit, but the other party walked straight towards him, so Caesar stretched out his hand directly to shake hands in accordance with human habits.

The other party took his hand and smelled the clothes he was wearing, then observed him in a circle, and finally tore Caesar's clothes directly with force.

Then he shook his clothes and roared twice, and the other orangutans scattered when they heard the sound.

Caesar also noticed something was wrong, so he immediately ran towards a big tree in the center of the field.

It's just that before he climbed the tree, he was smashed to the ground by a flying iron bucket, and then the strong orangutan flew over directly, catching Caesar with a heavy hammer.

"Give someone else a shot!" Chen Hao shouted.

When the other orangutans saw the orangutans fighting, they immediately danced and clamored.

After all, Caesar had a high IQ, and when the strong orangutan roared, he immediately climbed to the big tree in the middle.

"Okay, it's over!" Chen Hao shouted, "The substitute will play next!"

The next scene was a chase scene between Caesar and the strong orangutan in the tree. To be on the safe side, Andy Serkis would not be injured, so Chen Hao arranged for a special stand-in actor to play.

They have all received professional training, their movements are more agile and beautiful, and their safety factor is higher.

As for Caesar and the strong orangutan rocket, it only needs to take a few close-up facial shots for post-production special effects synthesis.

Soon the set was filled with green screens.

"Okay, let's start!" Chen Hao shouted.

Two stuntmen wearing motion capture suits and Wia quickly climbed up the tree and shuttled among the branches. "Caesar" also took the opportunity to give "Rocket" a kick.

However, because of the excessive force during the running process, and the branches were too narrow to stabilize the center of gravity, "Rocket" was kicked and fell off.

Fortunately, Wia caught it in time, and lifesaving mats had already been laid on the ground.

"Are you alright?" Chen Hao asked immediately.

The stuntman immediately raised his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay!"

Seeing this, Chen Hao breathed a sigh of relief, "Take a break and continue later."

Lu Yang used to communicate with the two stuntmen again, and the filming continued after 10 minutes.

When "Caesar" climbed to the top of the tree, "Rocket" chased after him, and "Caesar" who had nowhere to hide was hit by "Rocket" and fell down.

At this time, Wia caught "Caesar" in time.

"Okay, get ready to continue shooting!" Chen Hao said.

Here the shot of Caesar falling is shot separately.

During the fall, Caesar will hit the branches, but because the branches are too scattered and sharp, falling from the top of the tree is likely to hit the actor's head and body.

So when shooting here, we shoot directly on the same platform as three diving platforms with different heights to ensure that there are no debris on the top and bottom, and the actors will not be injured when they fall.

In the later stage, it is enough to directly use special effects to change the background platform into a big tree.

"Start!" Chen Hao shouted.

At this time, the camera is aimed at three flat panels of different heights covered with green screens, and "Caesar" is leaning on the tallest flat panel with both arms.

After hearing the sound of hitting the board, "Caesar" let go and fell from the first flat board, and then grabbed the second flat board with his extraordinary arm strength.

And "Rocket" jumped directly from the first flat to the second flat, and then stepped on "Caesar"'s hands, "Caesar" let out a cry of pain, fell down, and fell on the life-saving mat.

These movements seem dangerous, but they are done in one go by these stuntmen who often practice parkour, and they are done very well.

"Okay, very good, continue shooting!" Chen Hao said.

This shot has not been finished yet, because falling from the branch, it cannot be straight up and down, but will hit the branch. Normally, it should hit the left side, the right side, and there is a slight pause. After several times in succession , will fall to the ground.

So "Caesar" had to fall from a height, and then hit the flat plate continuously from left to right, and finally fell.

This time, the tablet became three on the left and three on the right, and then "Caesar" began to fall.

Of course, thick cushions are bound to the plates, so the actors will not be too painful or injured when they hit them.

"Caesar" tried this action twice before Chen Hao nodded in satisfaction.

Finally, Chen Hao took a close-up of the face of the Rocket being kicked by Caesar and being angry, and a close-up of the face of Caesar shaking left and right in panic, for post-compositing.

……

"What's for lunch?" Chen Hao looked at Xiaoying beside him and asked with a smile.

Xiaoying's face was flushed, she was panting heavily, her whole body was sore and limp, and she had no strength at all.

After being teased and messed up by Xiaoying, Chen Hao wanted to share the rain and dew, so sometimes he attacked Xiaoying at night and communicated with her at a negative distance in a simple way.

During the break at noon today, Xiaoying came to the caravan to deliver lunch to Chen Hao, and Chen Hao directly swallowed it alive and wiped it clean.

Xiaoying, who was weak all over, couldn't help giving Chen Hao a charming look, then gritted her teeth and got up, picked up the messy clothes in the car and put them on one by one, then sat at the dining table and brought out her lunch one by one.

Seeing this, Chen Hao smiled and walked over, wanting to hug Xiaoying.

Xiaoying shrank back immediately, "Don't touch me, I can't do it anymore! Let's go tonight!"

"This dish is always provocative!" Chen Hao said with a smile, "I haven't even enjoyed it yet!"

"Huh!" Xiaoying snorted when she heard the words, if you don't provoke, you will be hooked away by that big ocean horse, "Eat your meal!"

Chen Hao looked at the unconvinced Xiaoying and shook his head, then lowered his head to eat, "Aren't you going to eat? I was almost exhausted just now, so hurry up and make up for it."

Xiaoying heard the words, "Let me take it easy."

Chen Hao smiled after hearing this.

After a while, Xiaoying came to her senses, and said, "By the way, "2012" has been drawn in Asia."

《2012》从7月3日，一直上映到9月7日，一共上映了67天，这个上映时间比《泰坦尼克号》还差了一个星期。

However, if the box office of "2012" has surpassed that of "Titanic", then the release time of "2012" should be delayed until it exceeds that of "Titanic".

Regarding this point, Cosmopolitan Haotian and the theaters under Huaying will definitely stick to it.

"Yeah!" Chen Hao nodded upon hearing this, and signaled Xiaoying to continue.

Xiaoying then dug out a document and said, "'2012' had a final box office of 3.71 million yuan in the mainland. It was temporarily the annual box office champion in the mainland in 2008, and it was also the box office champion in the history of mainland movies."

Chen Hao smiled and nodded when he heard the words, "By the way, is "On the Red Cliff" finished?"

"Also, the final mainland box office of "On the Red Cliff" was 2.76 million yuan, temporarily ranking second in the 2008 annual box office list in the mainland, and surpassed "I Am Legend" with 2 million yuan, ranking in the box office list of mainland film history No. 2.74!" Xiaoying said.

Chen Hao nodded secretly when he heard the words. In his previous life, the domestic box office of "2012" was as high as 4.65 million, and the box office of "On the Red Cliff" also reached 3.17 million.

Now that the two pieces meet, it is obvious that both sides will suffer, one failed to break through 4 million, and the other failed to break through 3 million!
“《2012》在香江获得了6323434美元的票房，暂时排名香江2008年年度票房排行榜的第3位，仅次于7549781美元的《蝙蝠侠：黑暗骑士》和6881184美元的《长江7号》！
"2012" also surpassed the 3850 million Hong Kong dollars of "The Martian", breaking your box office record in Hong Kong.

US$6332343 is about HK$4911 million, or 4399 million RMB! Xiaoying said, "By the way, the box office of "On the Red Cliff" in Xiangjiang is only 3109405 US dollars, only half of that of "2012". "

Chen Hao nodded when he heard the words, "2012" broke his own box office record, Chen Hao expected it, because the special effects of "2012" are completely comparable to Hollywood blockbusters.

More importantly, "2012" starred Liu Dehua. His appeal in Xiangjiang Baodao and Southeast Asia is obviously not comparable to that of current mainland actors.

Of course, Chen Hao's international reputation as a famous director should also be blessed.

However, the box office of "On the Red Cliff" in Xiangjiang was only half of that of "2012".

“宝岛地区，《2012》一共获得了8395852美元的票房，这个成绩暂时排名宝岛2008年年度票房排行榜的第2位，仅次于13804453美元的《海角7号》！
"2012" also surpassed "Pacific Rim"'s 1.23 million Treasure Island coins, setting a new record for your box office in the Treasure Island area!

The box office of US$8395852 is equivalent to about 2.3117 million Taiwan dollars, which is 5833 million yuan! "Xiaoying said, "In addition, "On the Red Cliff" earned 5522646 US dollars, ranking No. 6 on Treasure Island! "

It seems that "2012" has suppressed "On the Red Cliff" in the mainland, Baodao and Xiangjiang. Apart from Liu Dehua's factors, it seems that everyone's recognition of Chen Hao is slightly better than Wu Baige.

Because Chen Hao's reputation in the United States is much stronger than Wu Baige's now.

Of course, special effects should also be an important factor that cannot be ignored. After all, compared to special effects, "2012" is several blocks away from "On the Red Cliff".

"Then South Korea, "2012" had 198 million viewers in South Korea, surpassing the 166 million viewership of "Pacific Rim", setting a new record for your highest box office in South Korea.

At the same time, the 2012 million viewers of "198" also surpassed the 2002 million viewership record of Chinese-language movies created by Guoshi "Heroes" in 191. In other words, you are now the box office champion of Chinese-language movies screened in South Korea!

As for "On the Red Cliff", the number of viewers was 157 million, ranking fifth in the list of Chinese-language films released in South Korea, second only to "5", "Heroes", "Lust, Caution" and "Pacific Rim". "Xiaoying said.

Chen Hao smiled when he heard the words. He didn't expect "2012" to break the box office record of "Hero" and made himself the box office champion of Chinese-language movies in South Korea!
"198 million movie viewers, or 148.5 billion South Yuan, or about US$1340 million, or 9310 million yuan!" Xiaoying said.

"There is also the island country. In the island country, "2012" won a box office of 18.5 billion island dollars. This box office record broke the previous "I Am Legend" of 11.2 billion island dollars, breaking your new box office record in the island country.

At the same time, the 2012 billion island dollars of "18.5" ranked 11th in the box office list of Chinese-language movies released in the island, higher than the 2004 billion yuan of "Kung Fu" by Xing Ye in 17, and lower than the 1986 Cheng Long "Police The 18.7 billion island dollars of "Story".

As for "On the Red Cliff", it grossed a total of 50.5 billion island dollars in the island country, becoming the box office champion of Chinese-language movies shown in the island country. "Xiaoying said.

Chen Hao nodded after hearing this. Chen Hao was prepared for the box office of "On the Red Cliff" in the island country, because the island country really likes China's Three Kingdoms culture too much.

Perhaps this is also the reason why "Red Cliff" has become the largest investment movie in Asia, because there are island countries, and with Wu Baige, "Red Cliff" should not lose money.
