Chapter 848 The Scarlet Witch
After "Rise of the Planet of the Apes 2: War at Dawn" started, Chen Hao has been working with the entire crew, and is not in a hurry to speed up the progress.

After a few days of shooting, everyone gradually entered the role, and the shooting became smoother.

Time continued to pass as the shooting was getting better and better, and soon August passed and September arrived.

Mainland.

The 2-month summer schedule of "Inception" has finally come to an end, and "Inception" also gave a shocking box office success.

"The box office of the 10th week was 3900 million RMB. Unfortunately, "Inception" has lost its tenth consecutive weekly box office championship. It is only one step away from history!" --- Sohu Entertainment Report
"Accumulated box office of 10 billion yuan in 12.42 weeks, only 1.08 million away from "Avatar"!" —— Sohu Entertainment Report
""Inception" has a cumulative box office of 12.42 billion, officially bringing domestic films into the era of 12 billion box office!"--New Wolf Entertainment
"Breaking 4 more box office records, "Inception" continues to catch up with "Avatar"!"--Douyan.com

"The summer file is over, can "Inception" overtake "Avatar"?" --- Netease Entertainment
……

The summer file of "Inception" has officially ended, and Han Sanpin has fulfilled his own promise. Until August 8, there is indeed no other blockbuster film released in the mainland.

Last week's top box office was The Expendables, which opened on Wednesday, Sept. 9.

Because the summer slots are crowded, there are still many blockbuster films waiting to be scheduled, so as soon as the summer slots are over, domestic and Hollywood blockbusters will be screened together.

The first to be released was the Hollywood action blockbuster "The Expendables", which gathered Kung Fu superstars such as Stallone, Jason Statham, and Jet Li.

And last week was also the 10th week of the release of "Inception", with a box office of 3900 million yuan, it could only be the runner-up.

The summit of "The Expendables" also shattered the dream of "Inception"'s 10 consecutive weekly box office championships.

"Inception"'s consecutive weekly box office record finally stopped at 9 weeks, only one week away from tying "Avatar"'s 10 consecutive championships.

It's a pity that the fact has already been set, "Inception" can only rank second in the number of consecutive championship weeks.

说起《盗梦空间》，在6周票房直接破了10亿, 之后的四周分别又拿下了7800万、6700万、5100万和3900万人民币的票房。

These results broke the 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th week box office records in mainland film history!
Ten weeks after its release, the cumulative box office of "Inception" has reached 10 billion yuan, continuing to set a new record for domestic film box office.

At the same time, "Inception" is only 13.5 million short of "Avatar"'s box office record of 1.08 billion in mainland China.

Obviously, the brain-burning plot of "Inception", the celebration banquet breaking the 10 billion box office, being crowned the world's Chinese film box office champion, and the promotion of "taking back our own film history box office champion" played a positive role.

"Inception" still maintains a high degree of attention, coupled with no other blockbuster competition in the same period, "Inception" was able to maintain a small decline and continue to occupy the rankings.

However, with the end of the summer vacation and the mainland's schedule entering September, various blockbuster films that have been suppressed will be released one after another. Whether "Inception" can break the box office record of "Avatar" will make waves again.

Supporters believe that "Inception" holds the postponement key, and it is likely to be an ultra-long-term extension key. According to Huaying's support for "Inception", the schedule of "Inception" may not be reversed. .

Moreover, "Inception" was still able to win a box office of 3900 million yuan last week, and still has considerable box office potential.

In addition, theaters such as Sihaihaotian and Huaying will continue to give "Inception" a certain share of the film schedule as always.

Therefore, even if it is delayed until the end of the year, "Inception" will continue to be released. With such a long schedule, the box office of 1.08 million should be able to be completed.

Opponents believe that the best opportunity for "Inception" to overtake has passed after the domination of the summer schedule has passed.

"Inception" will encounter various blockbusters one after another until the end of the year, and the pressure of competition is infinite.

Moreover, "Inception" has been released for 2 months, and the freshness of the audience has been infinitely reduced. Even if the word-of-mouth is good, it will not make much difference at the box office. After all, the mainland is not like North America, which can be sold for a long time.

At the same time, the gap between "Inception" and "Avatar" is still 1.08 million yuan. Under such fierce competition, the difficulty of "Inception" to achieve corner overtaking is simply hell.

The two sides of the media who hold different views are citing classics and citing extensively, and the debate is endless.

The industry, movie fans, and netizens also split into two factions.

Feng Dapao: Congratulations to "Inception" breaking 12 billion at the box office. Although it is impossible to overtake "Avatar", it is still gratifying, hahaha...

"Does Director Feng think that "Inception" is hopeless?"

Feng Dapao: Isn't this obvious? Director Chen is already very good. As for the task of surpassing "Avatar", let me do "Tangshan Earthquake" and "If You Are the One 2"!

"Director Feng, do you think your film can surpass the box office of "Avatar"?"

Feng Dapao: Chen Hao can't do it, the national teacher can't do it, then it can only be me, see you at the end of the year!
……

Lu Chuan: Everyone should have known this result a long time ago, but the successive successes made someone a little blindly conceited.

""Inception" is far from finished, so you are so sure that you can't surpass "Avatar"?"

Lu Chuan: Ever since I watched "Avatar", I knew that this movie will dominate the mainland movie scene for at least 5 years. Even if someone exhausts all means, it can only prove that he still thinks too much.

"However, the box office of "Inception" is as high as 12 billion. When do you think you can get this box office?"

Lu Chuan: I refuse to answer this question!

……

At a time when the mainland was arguing over whether "Inception" could surpass "Avatar", Haotian Music released the third album of this year, "Want to Return to Sister He" by Sister He.

Sister He's personal three albums, including the scheduled first week, sold 5 physical copies, and 13 digital downloads.

Although it is not as good as Zhang Jingying and Li Yuchun's album results this year, it is still good.

Judging from the first-week sales figures of "Want to Return to Sister He", the sales of Haotian Music's three physical albums this year should exceed one million copies, and the digital download data will exceed 3 million times for the first time.

……

At the same time, the 8th China Golden Eagle TV Art Festival officially opened the selection of the 3rd Golden Eagle Goddess.

Haotian's Dameitang was shortlisted again for this year's "Golden Eagle Goddess" nomination list. In the selection of the 2008nd Golden Eagle Goddess in 2, Dameitang lost to Yaya by a narrow margin and missed the Golden Eagle Goddess.

And this year, thanks to the four popular TV dramas in the past two years, "Who Calls My Youth", "Snow Leopard", "Du Lala's Promotion" and "Sword III", Dameitang has become the most popular TV series at present. One of the little female roles.

In the past 2 years, I have left Mi Lai's youthfulness in "Struggle", the rambunctious demo in "Who Calls My Youth", the mature and wise Lala in "Du Lala's Promotion", and the amorous feelings in "Sword III" All kinds of Zixuan.

Dameitang can be said to have completed the sublimation and purification of acting skills, and has also become the biggest hit of this year's Golden Eagle Goddess.

Tianxian and Yaya, who are both popular female roles, have already been elected as the first and second Golden Eagle Goddesses respectively, so they cannot participate in the election again.

Other shortlisted Xiaohuadans include Xiaohu, Wang Pingxi, Wang Luodan, Zhang Jiani, Yuan Shanshan, Reyizha, etc.

However, compared with Dameitang, the gap between the others is quite obvious.

Among them, Xiaohu became popular with this year's "Sword and Sword III", and her popularity has increased sharply. However, in the past two years, Xiaohu has only broadcast this TV series, and she still makes more movies in Hollywood.

And because of being punished by Chen Hao, Xiaohu didn't have a movie released in 09 and 10, which made Xiaohu's popularity base far inferior to that of Dameitang.

What's more, Dameitang almost became the Goddess of the Golden Eagle in the second selection, so it is inevitable to win this time.

It can also be seen from the voting support rate on the Golden Eagle website that Dameitang's support rate is faultlessly ranked first.

In just 5 days, the number of support votes for Dameitang has exceeded 50, reaching 509635, with a support rate of 45.23%.

The second-ranked Xiaohu received only 2 votes, with a support rate of 98624%, which is only a little more than one-sixth of Dameitang. The gap is clear at a glance.

The other rankings are even lower, and some people even have less than [-] votes, which is embarrassing.

虽然本届金鹰女神的投票时间将持续整整20天的时间，从9月1日直至9月20日截止。

But Dameitang's support rate is too high, and the number of votes increases every day is still ranked first.

Because as a good friend, the most popular Xiaohuadan Yaya has canvassed for Dameitang, which means that Yaya's fans are voting for Dameitang.

The popularity of the two popular Huadans teaming up is really not something that other people can hold a candle to.

As time goes by, other competitors will only become more desperate.

Only Xiaohu did not give up, she was seeking the help of her best friend Tianxian.

The popularity of Tianxian has always been the top existence among Xiaohuadan. This time Tianxian and Xiaohu collaborated in the masterpiece "Zhu Xian", and became good friends and girlfriends.

And she is the 1st Golden Eagle Goddess, so she can't stand for the election, so there is no pressure to help Xiaohu to canvass votes.

The effect was obvious. After Tianxian solicited votes for Xiaohu, the number of votes exceeded 15 in an instant, and the growth rate also surpassed Dameitang, ranking first.

As for the other Xiaohuadans, they could only watch helplessly, after all, the gap was too great.

As for who the Golden Eagle Goddess will end up with, everything will be revealed on the evening of September 9.

……

Back to North America.

The filming of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes 2: Dawn Wars" is still going on, and with the tacit understanding between the crew, the filming progress has been significantly accelerated.

Chen Hao started the life of the crew step by step every day.

Of course, I can't forget to invite Kate Beckinsale to drink milk every night.

One day, Chen Hao received a notice from Smart that the heroine of "The Hunger Games" came for an interview.

Chen Hao was busy filming during the day and had no free time, so he arranged the interview time in the evening. As for the location, he didn't have to worry about it, he just stayed in his room.

The person who came for the interview was Elizabeth Olsen. The name is not very familiar. Change it to Omei, or the Scarlet Witch!

Elizabeth Olsen can barely be regarded as a child star, compared with her two sisters who were born as real child stars and became famous at a young age.

Elizabeth is considered a "late bloomer".

It was also influenced by her two older sisters, the "Olsen Sisters", that Aomei starred in her first play in her life when she was 4 years old.

After that, with the help of the sisters' TV programs, they began to appear frequently on the screen.

She studied at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts and is a professional student.

At this time, Omei hadn't appeared on the big screen yet, but this time she appeared in the audition list of the heroine of "The Hunger Games". Obviously, her two sisters must have contributed secretly.

Among the candidates for the heroine of "The Hunger Games", there is the original heroine's eldest cousin Jennifer Lawrence, but Chen Hao is obviously a person whose three views follow his five senses.

When I saw Lily Collins and Elizabeth Olsen again, I hesitated and finally chose Scarlet Witch.

Compared with the two, Lily Collins' facial features are too delicate, and Elizabeth Olsen is also taller, which is more suitable for the action movie "The Hunger Games".

Of course, there is also the reason why Chen Hao was deeply impressed by the Scarlet Witch in her previous life.

Another day of filming was over. After Chen Hao came back to watch the day's filming in the evening, Kate Beckinsale came to order.

Just as the two were about to communicate in depth, the doorbell rang.

Kate Beckinsale raised her eyebrows and said, "Did you date someone else?"

Chen Hao shook his head and said, "I don't remember."

After finishing speaking, Chen Hao got up and went to open the door, and through the cat's eyes, he saw Aomei who was grooming outside and taking deep breaths.

Chen Hao was stunned, then turned around and said with a smile, "I forgot, the company has a female lead of a play who came to audition."

Kate Beckinsale said with a deep smile, "The heroine audition? At night? Your room?"

Chen Hao smiled when he heard the words, "Isn't it because I'm busy filming and don't have time, so I just arranged it like this."

Kate Beckinsale shook her head and came over, then hugged Chen Hao for a while, then opened the door with a smile, and left directly.

Elizabeth Olsen at the door saw the door open and was about to introduce herself.

But seeing a cold and beautiful woman come out, I was a little confused for a moment, did I go to the wrong room?

Then seeing Chen Hao covering his lips with a pained expression, he was sure that he had made the right mistake.

It should be Kate Beckinsale just now, right?
This is, just finished?

Although Elizabeth Olsen has not really become an actor, she is still aware of some unspoken rules in the circle due to the influence of her two sisters.

Just like getting the chance to audition for the heroine of "The Hunger Games" this time, and it is such a special audition, she has already received some reminders from her two sisters and her agent.

In the end, Elizabeth Olsen still chose to seize the opportunity of this audition.

So, Olsen pretended not to see Kate Beckinsale who had just left, and smiled at Chen Hao, "Hello, Director Chen, I'm Elizabeth Olsen, and I'm here to audition for you."
