Chapter 500: Frustrated South Korean reporter, shaky Japanese record

This time, the "buzzing" discussion lasted for a long time and could not stop, because in everyone's opinion, "The True Colors of a Man" broke the box office records of Chinese films in Japan and South Korea consecutively, which is really amazing up. .

"The Promise" invested 3000 million U.S. dollars, "The Banquet" invested 1800 million U.S. dollars, and "Golden Armor" invested 4500 million U.S. dollars. These so-called blockbuster movies with a high amount of investment can only run rampant in China, and they are just as popular abroad. Little is gained as a joke.

The investment in "The True Colors of a Man" was less than 800 million US dollars, and before the release, everyone was not very optimistic, so when the results came out, the contrast was a bit big, and it even seemed like a dream.

It turns out that the bigger the investment, the more profitable it is, nor does it have to make the scene extremely luxurious, so that big names can make money, and it's not that only classical historical martial arts can make money.

On the contrary, modern action movies with a shorter shooting cycle, smaller investment and simpler stories are more attractive to foreigners.

Nima, doesn't this clearly show that the so-called costume blockbusters that have been popular in Chinese-language movies for the past few years are actually messing around?

After all, you can neither earn a lot of dollars abroad nor win big prizes (international category A prizes), so is there any use for such a high investment?It's purely a waste of money to play, isn't it?

Well, at this moment, many famous directors who have played in costume blockbusters have been shot, and even Wu Yusen, who was rushing to work, was shot while lying down, because "Red Cliff" he was rushing to produce was definitely another historical action film!If it is released next year, the global box office will not be as good as "The True Colors of a Man".I believe that 'White Dove Wu' will also be sprayed badly.

Of course, this should not happen. After all, the starring lineup of "Red Cliff" was lucky to invite someone to participate.No matter how bad the box office is, it will definitely not be inferior to "Men Ben", on the contrary, it may surpass it by a large margin!

"Cough cough~"

Faced with this 'buzzing' scene, Jiang Zhiqiang had to cough twice, put away his smile, and said in his heart: "I've been waiting for you for tens of seconds, and if you want to discuss it, go back to private Discuss!"

As if sensing his impatience, the guests at the scene finally shut their mouths.Both of them regained their composure and laid their eyes on Lao~Jiang's face again.

"South America and Australia, one is an area where the performance of Chinese-language films has always been poor. The other is an area with a small population that cannot be radiated by Chinese-language films. Therefore, in these two areas, the film only received a total box office of 950 million US dollars. .and has already quit the painting because of poor grades."

Speaking of the achievements of these two places.Jiang Zhiqiang’s voice is quite regrettable, especially in South America, where there are many countries with a large population, but Chinese films cannot be sold, because Portuguese and Spanish are popular here, plus South American countries There is general poverty and unrest, so not many people can afford to watch movies.

As a result, Chinese films will of course not be able to sell!

Of course, it’s not just Chinese films that are hard to sell in South America.Even Hollywood blockbusters never regard South America as an important ticket warehouse.Just like "Transformers", it was released on a large scale in South America for more than a month, and only earned 3500 million US dollars, which is not as good as the income in mainland China!

Therefore, the main creators are just a little bit regretful, but they don't feel lost. After all, the market needs to be cultivated. More importantly, there are always various turmoil and poverty, and there is no way to cultivate the market!

The reporters didn't have much reaction, obviously they all knew this, so Jiang Zhiqiang quickly continued: "Not to mention Africa, we directly sold the local release rights for 80 US dollars!"

"Hahaha……"

Well, this result simply made everyone laugh, because in the whole of Africa, only South Africa and Egypt are somewhat reliable markets. Most of the other countries and regions are either war or famine. Who the hell has the capital to watch movies? ?If you can sell it for $80 cleanly, it is considered a profit.

Jiang Zhiqiang is also laughing, but he is still thinking in his heart, if it is really screened in several relatively stable countries in Africa, I don't know if this movie can get a total box office of 500 million US dollars?If achieved, this drama may surpass "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"!

Of course, it's useless to think about these things now, and he quickly forgot about it, nodded and continued: "Finally, the box office data in Europe is pretty good, especially the UK!"

He smiled, showing full satisfaction: "Because it is also an English-speaking country, it was greatly affected by the box office performance in the United States, so it earned a total of 955 million US dollars in four weeks of release!"

Old~Jiang smacked his lips, seeming to think about it, "Then Germany, France and Russia, they jointly contributed 756 million US dollars, plus Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and Portugal contributed 450 million US dollars. , the result of the entire Europe is 2161 million U.S. dollars, becoming the fourth largest box office in the world for this film (main box office: the mainland, the United States, Japan, Europe, Southeast Asia, South America, South Korea)."

Well, now the guests present can finally shout loudly, because everyone has got all the total box office except Southeast Asia and the mainland, and after a quick calculation, the result was quickly drawn: 1.52 million US dollars !

"Hiss! It's really a pervert!"

A South Korean reporter gasped and said in amazement: "Our "Han River Monster" only earned 2 U.S. dollars in the United States, and the global box office combined is less than 8000 million U.S. dollars (there are several versions, at least The one with the most is only 5 million RMB, the more is 8 million, the middle one is intercepted), it is unexpected that such an ordinary-looking police and gangster action movie with an "ultra-small" investment has sold two copies in Europe, America, Japan and South Korea. Double the box office, why? Why is this?"

Not only the South Korean reporters were extremely frustrated and couldn't understand the reason, but the Japanese reporters also felt very uncomfortable, and their minds were full of chaos.

"Fortunately, we still have "Spirited Away" in Japan, and it is still the highest-grossing non-Hollywood production and the highest-grossing Asian film. Well, "The True Colors of a Man" is now only more than 2 million points (US dollars), But "Spirited Away" is 2.5 million US dollars, it should not be able to surpass, fortunately, fortunately!"

Of course, the reporters from Japan and South Korea are feeling frustrated and uneasy, but the reporters from Hong Kong, Taiwan and the mainland don’t have to worry about it. After all, "The True Colors of a Man" is a Chinese film, and the leading actors are all Chinese. The higher the score it will achieve , everyone will have more face, because Chinese people have a potential idea, that is, they cannot be the number one in the world, but they must become the number one in Asia, no matter in any aspect.

Therefore, the China Entertainment reporters who had the largest number of people on the scene were very excited. They were like children who got red envelopes during the Chinese New Year. Regardless of whether the people around them knew each other very well, they began to chatter. The excitement in my heart.

"It's too tricky, it's a blockbuster! 1.52 million US dollars! This is definitely expected to break the record of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"!"

"Tch, what's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"? It's best to get rid of the records of "Spirited Away" left by Hayao Miyazaki. How can a small~Japanese shit cartoon dominate the vast Asia? What about the honor of being the highest-grossing movie in Asia? Anyway, it’s only 5000 million dollars away, so there should be a chance?”

"There's a fart chance! 5000 million US dollars is not RMB, and it's almost 4 million RMB in conversion! It's still so much money, and the domestic box office is about to rise. How can it break?"

"Damn it, why can't it be broken? Didn't Tang Xiaosa claim to have tens of millions of fans in China? Each of them has a ticket, and that's 10 billion yuan. Are you afraid that you won't be able to break "Spirited Away"? "

"I'm going, do you think every fan is a loyal fan? His registered fans are only over 900 million, and the tens of millions of fans he claims are all supported by a whim! Who would put their hopes on them?"

"Damn, it seems that we can only wait for "Red Cliff". This drama has a strong lineup and a higher investment. I think there should be hope to kill "Spirited Away"!"

……

Brother Xiao Sa has no idea that there is actually a radical China Entertainment reporter who wants him to show his power to kill "Spirited Away", which is the highest-grossing in Japan, the highest-grossing in Asia, and the highest-grossing non-Hollywood production in the world. A conflict has occurred.

If he had known about this, he would have gone to Japan to do some publicity. After all, Japan is still the second largest ticket warehouse in the world. If you work a little harder and show more in Japan, you might be able to Earned tens of millions of dollars.

But it doesn't matter, because "Red Cliff" will definitely go to Japan, South Korea, Europe and the United States for publicity, and then he should show off his power! . )
