Liao Xuezong said with a smile: "Director Su, don't tell me, there are people who are not afraid of death."

Su Changde was taken aback, and asked, "Who is it?"

Liao Xuezong replied: "Warner's "Out of the Solar System" wants to be released on July [-], and has just submitted an application."

Su Changde said with a smile: "This Warner is picking up the loopholes. After "Zhu Xian 2" is released on July 12, most other movies will be selected after No. [-]. Warner has made a time difference."

"After all, no matter how good "Zhu Xian 2" is, it is impossible for fans to watch this movie all the time. As long as "Out of the Solar System" can achieve the second best reputation, then it will definitely become the favorite of those fans who have finished watching Jade Xian." guys, the second choice."

"Hehehe, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, and preferring to go to the mountains, Warner dares to take chestnuts in the fire. It seems that which CEO is not easy."

Liao Xuezong said: "The question is whether it will be successful or not. It's really hard to say. If "Zhu Xian 2" continues to be popular for half a month, then Warner will be in trouble."

"That depends on Warner's luck!" Su Changde said: "By the way, I heard that the re-release of "Zhu Xian 1" in the Lighthouse Country did not go well. Is there such a thing?"

Liao Xuezong nodded and said: "Of the fifty states in the Lighthouse Country, only 27 states have issued re-screening permits for "Zhu Xian 1", and the others have not agreed. This matter has made the movie fans in these states strongly dissatisfied. They made a big fuss online."

Su Changde said: "The Beacon Country is a country that has been kidnapped by capital, it doesn't matter how dissatisfied these movie fans are."

While Su Changde and Liao Xuezong were discussing this matter, Zhang Xiao was also having a video chat with Disney CEO Herman on this matter.

"23 states can't show it, which is really beyond my expectations."

Herman said: "Mr. Zhang, the reason why these states have made such a decision is that behind them are the shadows of the other four giants in Hollywood."

Zhang Xiao said disdainfully: "A group of rats know that this kind of method can't get on the stage, Herman, is there a way to get a screening permit?"

"It's hard!" Herman said: "Unless "Zhu Xian 1" can get an excellent pre-sale box office and cause demonstrations by movie fans in other states, it is possible to force the relevant departments to agree to the screening."

"It doesn't matter!" Zhang Xiao nodded, and said, "The most important thing for us is the box office of "Zhu Xian 2", the trailer has been released now, right? How do the fans in Lighthouse Country think of this trailer? "

Herman said with a smile: "The number of hits on the trailer has just exceeded 5000 million, and the fans' evaluations are very high. They all hope that "Zhu Xian 2" will be released as soon as possible."

Zhang Xiao said: "That's good."

There is still a week before the re-release of "Zhu Xian 1", and the pre-sale channel of the film has already opened.

The ticket price in China and Asian countries is 25 yuan, the ticket price in North America is five dollars, and the ticket price in other parts of Europe is four euros. Compared with the newly released movies, this price is already half lower.

After all, it is a re-release of an old movie. If the ticket price is too expensive, it will be a bit inappropriate.

What everyone didn't expect was that this movie, which had only been screened for more than a year, was able to get the first place in the global pre-sale box office when it was re-released again.

In just three days, the pre-sale box office of "Zhu Xian 1" in China and Asian countries, if converted into US dollars, has reached 1.5 million, and the pre-sale box office of European countries has reached 1.8 million euros, which is equivalent to 2.2 million dollars.

Since there are still 23 states in the lighthouse country that have not issued film screening licenses for "Zhu Xian 1", the pre-sale box office in North America is only 7000 million US dollars.

Including Australia and other regions, Zhang Xiao's "Zhu Xian 1" has a total pre-sale box office of 4.78 million US dollars.

As soon as this data came out, the world was in an uproar.

"Oh my God, what did I see?"

"In three days, it won nearly [-] million U.S. dollars in pre-sale box office, and it's still a movie that has already been released. This is simply a miracle."

"I have watched "Zhu Xian 1" many times on the Internet, but I still couldn't hold it back. I bought another movie ticket, only to find that all my friends around me bought it."

"There are more than 30 choices for next week, but the movie "Zhu Xian" is always my favorite."

"The pre-sale box office of "Zhu Xian 1" is so high, it is hard to imagine how terrifying the pre-sale box office of "Zhu Xian 2" will reach."

"Once "Zhu Xian" came out, it was invincible."

"Last year, the box office of "Zhu Xian 1" reached 55 billion US dollars. If there is another 15 billion US dollars this year, then its total box office will reach 70 billion US dollars, which is simply amazing."

"I doubt that after the re-release of "Zhu Xian 1", the total box office worldwide will exceed 20 billion US dollars."

"···"

"Zhu Xian 1" can get such a good pre-sale box office, which Zhang Xiao himself did not expect.

I don’t know that since entering June, the Huaguo film market has entered a stage of competition for hegemony. Films from various countries have entered major theaters one after another. Hollywood films alone will have 6 films to be released in June, plus European films. For Asian and domestic films, a total of 6 films were released in June, which is far more intense than the Spring Festival.

It is a pity that domestic films did not perform very well in this competition. The highest box office was invested by Sunny Entertainment, starring Liu Huade and Chen Yibin, "Chasing the Fire", but it only ranked fourth.

The third place is the Hollywood action blockbuster "Lethal Weapon", while the No.2 is the World War II blockbuster "The Wilderness of War", which is also from Hollywood.

What is surprising is that the movie with the best box office and word-of-mouth is actually from A Sanguo. The name is also very simple, "Wrestling". This movie scored 9.48 on a certain website. However, as word-of-mouth fermented, it managed to win a box office of 3 million on the third day, surpassing the No.5.67 "Wild Field of War" of the day, which was a full 2 million.

You must know that the production and publicity costs of the movie "Wild Fields of War" claim to have reached 4.2 million U.S. dollars, and the cost of the movie "Lethal Weapon" also exceeded 2 million U.S. dollars.But the cost of the movie "Wrestling" by A Sanguo is only 600 million US dollars. It can be said that the cost of the three movies varies by hundreds of thousands of miles, but "Wrestling" won in the end. This makes people in the industry feel that Very unexpected.

Although none of the domestic films made it to the top three at the box office, they occupied four of the top ten, and still had the upper hand in terms of total.

Everyone thought that the result would be like this, but they never expected that when the old movie "Zhu Xian 1" was released, it just broke through the siege, sweeping away the decline of domestic movies, and it was a mess. save face.

Beijing Tianjing Dihua Zoo.

Zhang Xiao's family, Yu Qian's family, Li Liangjie's family, Wu Jin's family plus Chen Daoming, Liu Huade, and Chen Yibin, three big names in the film industry, a total of 14 people sat around on the lawn, eating and grilling.

Chen Daoming took a sip of beer, looked at the little animals running back and forth, and said, "You guys are really good at enjoying yourself. If there is such a party in the future, you must call me!"

Chef Zhang Xiao put a large amount of grilled mutton skewers on the plate, and said, "Mr. Chen, don't you like to participate in the banquet?"

Chen Daoming explained: "A wine bureau is a wine bureau, and a party is a party, they cannot be confused."

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "Okay, you can say whatever you like, Mimi, this is the potato I baked specially for Xiao Xinxin, you feed her some."

Yang Mi took it, walked up to Xiao Xinxin, and said, "Baby, come and eat potatoes."

Wu Jin said, "I want to eat potatoes too."

Zhang Xiaobai glanced at him, and said angrily: "If you want to eat, go bake it yourself, I don't have time to serve you."

Liu Huade laughed and said: "Wu Jin, if you want to be treated like a little princess, don't dream about it."

Everyone laughed.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Chen Daoming suddenly said: "In early June, movies from all over the world gathered in Huaguo, and a fierce competition was launched. As a result, the top three were all taken away by foreign movies. Although we can't say it was a disastrous defeat, this result is indeed not very good, Zhang Xiao, what do you think?"

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "I'm quite relieved."

Li Liangjie said in surprise: "We have all been beaten like this, and you are quite relieved. Are you sure you are not talking ironically?"

"Of course it's not an irony." Zhang Xiao explained: "In my heart, I have always regarded Hollywood movies as the biggest enemy of our domestic movies."

"But judging from the current situation, Hollywood movies don't seem to be as powerful as I imagined. Look at the eight movies that were released this time, and two of them are Hollywood movies. The second and third seem to be pretty good. Awesome, but their other six films are all ranked after No. 15, which shows that Hollywood movies don't have any advantages in the Chinese market."

"As for "Wild Fields of War" and "Lethal Weapon", the production costs are so high that it is normal for the box office to be better."

"What really surprised me was A Sanguo's "Wrestling", the plot is simple, without any special effects, it is a story of a father and two daughters, but the spirit in it is more touching than other movies. "

"I just said that I was very pleased, because the appreciation level of our Huaguo movie fans has improved a lot compared to before. Compared with the pure sensory enjoyment brought to everyone by Hollywood movies, now they pay more attention to spiritual enjoyment."

"I feel that this is a huge improvement, and it is undoubtedly a very good thing for domestic films."

After hearing Zhang Xiao's words, Chen Daoming nodded and said, "You're right."

"The success of the movie "Wrestling" shows that domestic movie fans have a stronger appreciation for movies, their psychology is more mature, and they are more rational when choosing movies."

"Unfortunately, "Wrestling" is a movie of Ah Sanguo, not our domestic movie."

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "The success of "Wrestling" is a sign. It proves that as long as the plot of the movie is good, a small budget can still beat a big production. It also points out the direction for our film companies in Huaguo."

Yu Qiandao: "Zhang Xiao, the movies you've made in the past few years seem to be big productions, right?"

Zhang Xiaodao: "To be honest, I didn't say that small productions will definitely beat big productions. In comparison, big productions have a higher chance of winning high box office."

"Furthermore, many of the films I've filmed in the past few years have won you with a small cost, such as "The Silence of the Lambs". The cost of this film is only tens of millions of dollars a day."

"There is also "Zhu Xian 2", which will be released next month, and the cost is directly negative."

Yu Qian was taken aback, and asked in puzzlement, "Can the cost be negative?"

Zhang Xiao explained: "At the beginning I shot "Zhu Xian 1" and "Zhu Xian 2" together. The box office of the first film was more than 50 billion US dollars. The money I received far exceeds the production and publicity costs of "Zhu Xian 2", do you think it is a negative number?"

Yang Mi hit him and said: "You can pull it down, how can you settle accounts like this?"

Zhang Xiao retorted: "Is there anything wrong with this calculation? I don't think there is any problem at all!"

Yu Qiandao: "Anyway, "Zhu Xian 2" is already invincible, no matter what the box office is, it doesn't matter, right?"

"Don't!" Chen Daoming said at this time: "At this critical juncture, the higher the box office of "Jade Dynasty 2", the more confidence we can make in domestic films, and it is best to surpass "Jade Dynasty 1"."

Li Liangjie said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, your expectations are a bit high."

Chen Daoming said: "I think it is still very promising. Compared with "Jade Dynasty 1", the fan base of "Jade Dynasty 2" is much higher."

Li Liangjie picked up the beer and said with a smile: "Then let's raise our glasses together, and wish "Zhu Xian 2" a big hit at the box office and successfully reach the top of the world box office chart."

"cheers!"

Everyone raised their glasses together and drank the wine in the glasses.

After drinking and eating, everyone played in the zoo for a while, and then dispersed.

the next day.

A sensational event happened around the world.

Movie fans in 23 states of the Beacon Country held massive demonstrations, and the banners were very funny, "I want to watch Zhu Xian 1"

Seeing this situation, Disney immediately sent its reporters to conduct on-site interviews.

"My dear lady, what is the purpose of your parade?"

"Of course I want to watch "Zhu Xian 1". Why can other states watch it, but we can't watch it here? This is infringing on our freedom to watch movies."

"Haven't you watched the movie "Zhu Xian 1" last year?"

"I watched it, and I watched it three times, but it has been more than a year now, and I still want to go to the theater to experience the ultimate visual experience again."

"Then do you think this movie is good?"

"Of course it's good. This is my favorite movie. Baguio's loyalty to love in it is worth learning for all of us."

···
"This handsome guy, have you seen the movie "Zhu Xian 1" last year?"

"Unfortunately, I only watched it a few times on the Internet, and I didn't experience the 3D visual experience in person."

"So you want your city theater to be able to show the movie "Zhu Xian 1"?"

"That's right, the visual effects of "Zhu Xian 1" are amazing. I hope to watch it in theaters, and then watch "Zhu Xian 2", otherwise I will regret it for the rest of my life. Unfortunately, our terrible film and television department is in charge. People, they didn't approve the screening of "Zhu Xian 1", I'm so mad."

"Then why don't you go to another state to see it?"

"Going to a city [-] kilometers away to watch a movie? Why?"

···
There are a lot of movie fans participating in the "Zhu Xian 1" parade in Beacon Country, with a total of 23 people in the 10 states.

In order to watch a movie that has already been screened, there was such a big commotion, which was not expected by the government and filmmakers of the various states in the lighthouse country.

After the news reached the country, it immediately caused a sensation among Huaguo movie fans.
