China Entertainment’s rescue plan is hard to come by

Chapter 363 Airport Containment【Please subscribe】

While domestic media were frantically searching for Sun Yi and Liu Yifei in the United States, the two were already on a flight back to China.

High in the sky, Liu Yifei looked out the window. The clear blue sky was cloudless, as clear as jasper, just like her mood at the moment.

Looking back on the past half month, it seems like a dream.

Wherever he goes, there are countless media and fans, all spouting complimentary words, as if he has really become a Hollywood superstar.

The dream that was once out of reach seems to be within reach.

"elder brother."

"Ok?"

"I feel like this is so dreamy."

"What do you mean?"

"Our movie has a box office of over [-] million, which feels a bit unreal."

"Not true?"

Sun Yi chuckled lightly, raised his hand and pinched Liu Yifei's pretty face, and then he felt it was not enough, so he pulled it a little.

"Hey, is it true this time?"

Liu Yifei looked stunned. After a moment, she realized what she was doing. She wrinkled her nose and raised her fist towards Sun Yi.

"Oh, you're so annoying. I'm telling you something serious."

"Hey, hey, aren't I helping you find your true feelings? Why don't you recognize the heart of a good person?"

Liu Yifei refused.

"Do you have to pinch me to find the real feeling?"

"It's not like I couldn't hold it back for a while."

"No, then let me pinch you too."

Faced with this request, Sun Yi sternly refused.

"Impossible. I am a dignified man. How can I let a woman pinch my face at will? Do I have to lose face?"

A moment later
"We agreed in advance, it's just for one moment, why are you using both hands... together!"

Forget it, just give her one as a gift.

There is nothing shameful about doting on your girlfriend.

After playing around for a while, Liu Yifei put her head on Sun Yi's shoulder with a satisfied smile on her lips.

Sun Yi also stopped joking, put his arm around her shoulders, and said softly:

"The entertainment industry is like this. It doesn't matter whether it's China or Hollywood. When you succeed, everyone will surround you. At this time, you have to stay awake and not make mistakes."

"Well, I understand."

Sun Yi was not only talking to Liu Yifei, but also encouraging himself.

The results of this trip to the United States were something he had not expected in advance.

According to his understanding of the original work, the box office revenue in North America was only US$7000 million.

But this time he almost doubled it.

In fact, movies are very magical. After they are released, there are too many factors that affect them.

Schedule, reputation, content, even current hot topics, actors themselves, etc. will all have a great impact on the movie.

Sun Yi's adaptation of "Shelter" can be said to have taken advantage of the right time, place and people.

The first is the overall market background.

Different from the 16 years in the original work, the economic crisis in the United States in 2008 directly caused the explosion of the film industry.

Then there’s the difference in schedules.

The original work was released in March, a garbage period, but this time Sun Yi is actually in the North American "summer period".

As we all know, there are two main schedules for Hollywood movies, one is the "summer schedule" and the other is the "Christmas schedule."

The "summer season" in North America usually starts on the first weekend of May and ends in mid-August. Strictly speaking, it actually starts on Memorial Day and ends on Labor Day in the United States.

In fact, "summer season" has nothing to do with summer. The reason why producers crowd into "summer season" is, to put it bluntly, it is to take advantage of people's vacation and have plenty of time to watch movies. It's a great way to have fun.

Therefore, in this period, the box office will generally be much higher.

In terms of subject matter, he also took advantage.

Since July, the entire North American film market has been dominated by science fiction films.

"Public Enemy" Hancock swept the box office of 2.27 million in the United States. The premiere box office was 6260 million, and the total box office reached 2.28 million, second only to "Iron Man" and "The Dark Knight". Became the third runner-up at the annual box office.

"Hellboy 2", which was released at the same time, made back its money within two weeks of its release and easily exceeded 2 million.Next is the most outstanding performance of "Batman Begins [-]: The Dark Knight". Its appearance directly set off the climax of the summer season.

Sun Yi's "Shelter" just caught up with the tail end of this wave of science fiction.

In addition, the good reputation he received after adapting the ending and the outstanding performance of his girlfriend, these various reasons, combined, created the movie's box office of over [-] million.

As for why Sun Yi was anxious to return to China less than half a month after the movie was released, the reason is more complicated.

"Shelter" was fully released on August 8. With a box office of 11 million in the first week, it expanded to 6000 theaters in the second week, taking advantage of its numerical advantage to resist the downward trend of box office.

But in the third week, I obviously couldn't hold it anymore.

The box office on the first day plummeted 40.00% to less than 1000 million.

The reasons for the plummeting box office are: First, the summer season in North America has officially ended, and the number of moviegoers has dropped significantly.

Secondly, after all, this film is still a low-budget film. It only uses plot and twists to attract movie fans, and there are no big and exciting scenes.The movie fans that can be attracted have basically already seen it, and the rest are basically not interested.

In addition, "Shelter" has been released for two weeks, and the two of them have already visited the top ten major ticket-rich cities in the United States. It doesn't make much sense to continue running. There are still a few shows of "Star You" in China. The filming was not finished, so I simply returned to China early.

Of course, these are all superficial reasons, he told Liu Yifei.In fact, he didn't say the most fundamental reason. It was an important day in two days. He had been secretly preparing for it for a long time, so how could he waste it on a publicity road show in the United States.

In the afternoon, the plane arrived at Beijing International Airport on time.

Sun Yi woke up Liu Yifei, who had been sleeping together. The two simply disguised themselves as usual, putting on masks, sunglasses, and Liu Yifei also put on a baseball cap, and just like that, they got off the plane.

After picking up their luggage, the two of them followed the crowd, walking slowly and quietly, communicating in low voices as they walked, planning the next arrangements, and didn't notice anything unusual at all.

Just turn a corner.

Sun Yi was stunned. He saw a group of reporters waiting at the exit of the station. Someone with sharp eyes saw him directly and shouted "Sun Yi!".

Like thunder on the ground, the scene immediately exploded.

The whole crowd rushed towards them like hungry wolves.

The interview microphone almost hit his mouth.

The camera's constant flashing lights gave him the feeling of being on a battlefield and being hit by a flash bomb. If he hadn't put on sunglasses in advance, he might have been blinded by this moment.

"Director Sun Yi, Director Sun Yi, I'm from Xinjing Entertainment, don't squeeze me."

"Yifei, Yifei, look here"

"Director Sun, Director Sun, please. Damn it!"

The reporters immediately surrounded the exit and almost got into a fight in order to get the first row.

Following the reporters were a group of fans holding banners.

"Sister Fairy."

"Sissy."

"Yifei."

"Sun Gou, get out of the way, I want to see the fairy sister!!!"

Nima!

Sun Yi's first reaction was to tightly protect Liu Yifei behind him, and then immediately led her back to the exit passage.

"What's going on? Is this all for the two of us?"

Liu Yifei was still a little confused at this time. She had never been interviewed by the media before, but this was the first time she had seen the battle that blocked the exit hall.

Sun Yi wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling helpless.

"Well, they are just here for us."

He didn't expect it to be like this. Their trip was very confidential. I don't know why the reporters knew about it.

In fact, they received the news from the moment they boarded the plane yesterday.

These days, the management of relevant departments is not yet perfect, and things like flight passenger information are not difficult to obtain in the hands of caring people.

Sun Yi called Yang Fan immediately.

"Brother Fan, where are you? I'm sorry. There are so many reporters blocking me, but you didn't tell me in advance."

"Where can I tell you to go? I'm still stuck outside the departure hall and haven't gone in. I don't know what's going on inside."

"Hurry up and contact the airport and ask them for help. I don't want to be on the headlines tomorrow saying that I disturb public order."

"Okay, okay, just wait a moment, I'll be there right away."

In about ten minutes, Yang Fan led a dozen airport police officers to the exit and finally rescued Sun Yi and Liu Yifei.

But the reporters and fans at the scene still refused to leave.

In the end, there was really no choice but to guide everyone outside the venue first, and then the two began to divide the work. Sun Yi went to accept the interview, and Liu Yifei went to thank the fans.

"Director Sun Yi, do you have any plans to release this movie in China?"

"Yes, the distributor will strive to have the film released in most countries around the world, including China, but the specific time has not yet been determined."

"Director Sun Yi, your movie has a box office of over 1 million and has become the No. [-] box office hit in Hollywood among Chinese directors. What do you think?"

"First of all, I feel very honored, but I still have to correct you. The Hollywood box office record holder for a Chinese director is "Mission: Impossible 2" by Hong Kong director Mr. Wu Yusen, with US$2.1 million."

"After all, when counting our country, Hong Kong Island cannot be left behind."

Seeing that Sun Yi was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and had a clear mind and did not forget the overall situation, the reporters at the scene applauded him.

As for Liu Yifei, the fans are extremely enthusiastic.

"Shenxian...er...Liu...Qian."

"It's okay, just call me Sissi. What's your name?"

"Qian...Hello Qianxi, my name is Guo Qingxiao Yifei Yiliu..."

"Huh? Goose goose... thank you, but this is your online name. Do you want me to sign this?"

"No, no, my name is Liu Xuan."

"Hmm, then I wish Liu Xuan happiness every day, Liu Yifei."

Scissorhands, click.
