Chapter 444 [Hurricane Rescue] and [The King of Kung Fu] clash

The time came to March 2008.

"The End of Days 2", which has been released for more than a month, has basically lost momentum at the box office, and the cumulative total box office is stuck at US$29.5 billion.

This was something Zhang Nan didn't expect.

After all, he has invested US$2 billion in the box office appeal of "The Last Days 25". Logically speaking, it should not be a problem for "The Last Days 2" to exceed US$30 billion in global box office.

But thinking about the restrictions imposed by the Mainland Film Market on "Rebirth 2", Zhang Nan understood.

But just when Zhang Nan had no expectations for the global box office of "Rebirth 2" to exceed 30 billion US dollars, the box office of "Rebirth 2" began to grow rapidly again, and Zhang Nan was stunned for a while.

Faced with this abnormal situation, Zhang Nan specifically asked Old Luke to investigate.

The specific situation was quickly investigated.

"Someone booked the venue to rob the box office!"

After Zhang Nan heard this answer, he was stunned and couldn't help but asked Old Luke: "Did you do it?"

Old Luke quit as soon as he heard this.

"I did it, do I still need to investigate? When you asked, I could have just told you."

Old Luke continued to explain angrily: "The people who boosted the box office of [The Last Day 2] are very mixed, but most of them have one thing in common. They bought the basic share of [The Last Day 2] through various means in the financial market." .”

"So...they are spending money to boost the box office performance of [The Last Day 2] so that they can raise the price of [The Last Day 2] in the financial market?"

When he finished saying this, the corners of Zhang Nan's mouth twitched a little.

Because of this kind of operation, Zhang Nan had seen it before in the original time and space, but that was in [Ip Man 2019] in 3.

As a film investor, Shi Kuailu gave free money to theaters and booked the box office of "Ip Man 3". He also used the popularity of "Ip Man 3" to raise money like crazy.

Tell the truth.

If Shi Kuailu hadn't played too much in [Ip Man 3] and couldn't get over the commotion, Shi Kuailu could have continued to play this kind of operation because he had used this kind of operation to play stably. For several years.

With this thought in mind, Zhang Nan suddenly frowned and thought, "Ip Man 1" seemed to have been approved and released in 2008.

Shi Kuailu wouldn't be allowed to be born ahead of time!

but……

It doesn't seem to have much to do with me. This guy will always take this path anyway. A little earlier or a little later, it doesn't make much difference.

"As long as you know what the situation is, you are giving me money for the [Doomsday Rebirth 2] project and giving me fame for nothing. I can't refuse it. If you don't want it, it will be in vain." Zhang Nan finally said, shaking his head slightly.

When Old Luke heard this, he also shrugged and said it didn't matter.
-
4 month 1 day.

"Hurricane Rescue" starring Wu Jin is released.

Originally, France [-] TV wanted to have Zhang Nan, who had a cameo in the movie, directly attend the North American premiere of "Rescue" to boost the popularity of "Rescue" in North America.

But in the end, he changed his mind and let Zhang Nan attend the mainland premiere of "Hurricane Rescue".

Yes.

[Hurricane Rescue] was released in mainland China, and it was at the same level that it was released simultaneously around the world.

The reason why [Hurricane Rescue] can achieve this situation.

On the one hand, the star of "Hurricane Rescue" is Wu Jin, who is also a mainland superstar, and the content of the movie is not too bloody and violent, and it also exposes the Myanmar paradise industry chain for foreigners.

On the other hand, it is compensation for the restrictions on the mainland screening of "Rebirth 2".

And "Hurricane Rescue" is indeed up to the mark. It performed very well at the box office in the mainland. It grossed nearly [-] million yuan at the box office on the day of its premiere.

Of course, a lot of the credit for this 1000 million yuan box office must be attributed to Zhang Nan.

Because the promotion strategy of "Hurricane Rescue" in the mainland basically copied Wu Jin and Hao Jian in the future, because "Wolf Warrior 2", "Charlotte Trouble"... and other movies became popular, and other movies were copied. The operation of people's reputation.

There is not much Hanjing and Hanteng in the movie, but in the trailer, there is not a single second where the two of them are not seen together.It has set a standard for fraudulent movie promotion.

……

Two weeks later.

[Hurricane Rescue] has already grossed RMB 600 million at the box office in the Mainland.

The 600 million RMB box office here has little to do with Zhang Nan.

But "Hurricane Rescue" also performed well at the box office in North America, Europe... and other movie markets, and it was spread back to the mainland.

At this time, many viewers in the mainland still feel a little inferior.

So after hearing about the excellent box office performance of "Hurricane Rescue" in foreign countries, it aroused the satisfaction and curiosity of mainland audiences and entered the cinema.

Then I found that the movie was really enjoyable to watch, so the box office of the follow-up movie "Hurricane Rescue" stabilized.

It is estimated that after one month of filming, "Hurricane Rescue" will have no problem getting [-] million yuan in box office.

And Wu Jin can also rely on this "Hurricane Rescue" to make a shining appearance in the mainland and establish himself as a celebrity in the mainland.

Zhang Nan estimates that Wu Jin can be on par with Li Lianhe in the mainland this time thanks to [Hurricane Rescue].

After all, Li Lianlian relied on "Fearless", which had a box office of over [-] million, to gain a foothold in the mainland again. There is no reason why Wu Jin can't do it.

In fact, the box office potential of "Hurricane Rescue" in the mainland can actually exceed [-] million yuan.

But just like the North American summer vacation season is full of competition, with the continuous rise of the mainland film market, the mainland film market in 2008 is no longer what it used to be. Only the Lunar New Year season is somewhat competitive, and other periods are empty. .

Rather, various schedules are full of challenges.

For example, October 4th.

Li Lianlian and Cheng Long's "The King of Kung Fu" is about to be released.

……

4 month 18 day.

[The King of Kung Fu] premiere.

Zhang Nan's appearance made both Li Lianlian and Chenglong quite excited.

Without it.

Not to mention that Zhang Nan’s coffee table is placed here.

Just talking about the previous "Hurricane Rescue", which was crazy about Zhang Nan's popularity, it earned more than [-] million yuan at the box office on the first day, and no one could ignore Zhang Nan's appearance.

But compared to the excitement of Cheng Long and Li Lianlian, it was obviously the director of "The King of Kung Fu", Rob Minkoff, who was more excited.

the reason is simple.

There is no director currently working in the film and television industry who does not want to collaborate with Zhang Nan.

After all, Zhang Nan’s reputation as a box office mascot is really impressive!
I won’t even mention “The End of Days 30,” which grossed over 2 billion U.S. dollars at the box office.

"Taken", which is currently in theaters, has already done very well at the box office. The North American box office has exceeded 6000 million US dollars, and the global box office is already heading towards the [-] million US dollar club.

A film invested by the producer of French Television [-], which is not one of the eight major Hollywood producers, can gross over [-] million U.S. dollars at the global box office.

It’s not that this kind of thing has never happened.

And most of them have been encountered by Zhang Nan in recent years.

Many people cannot help but recognize the name of box office mascot.
