Chapter 2073 good start

Recently, the US Film Market has been on the rise under the impact of Lianyi Film Company's "Mechanic" and "Edward Scissor Hands".

But what really made the film market in the United States begin to get ready was another film.

A video released next month.

This is also a movie that the people have been looking forward to for five or six years.

It is naturally the movie adapted from "Forrest Gump" written by Yin Jun.

It is scheduled to be released in mid-November and launched a promotional campaign for the movie in October.

In addition to the actor's leading actor, Academy Award winner Tom Hanks, who frequently appeared on TV shows, he has also been to the top ten cities in the United States in succession to do various promotions.

Accompanying him were other actors from the crew, as well as Shi Shaoming, the deputy producer and studio manager.

Everyone praised the third movie of Yin Jun and Tom Hanks on various occasions. During this period, they also talked about a lot of interesting stories on the set, which made the fans look forward to the movie even more and more.

In fact, people have high expectations for "Forrest Gump".

The script written by the original author and directed by himself. Can anyone know this book better than him and make this movie better?

Not to mention that Yin Jun is also a super director, he is recognized by the whole world for directing art films.

He only won the Oscar for Best Director this year. How can he say that he was not good at taking the lead in pursuit?

However, Yin Jun did not come to the scene to promote it, which made countless movie fans quite regretful.

The reason why the producer made it public was that Mr. Yin Jun was handling urgent company affairs in Xiangjiang, so he didn't have time to come.

But fortunately, on the first three days of the movie's first weekend, Yin Jun will attend the premiere with the crew and go to big cities such as New York and Chicago to have fan meetings.

This finally made the fans feel some comfort.

But the slogan "Let Mr. Jun put aside everything, lock him in the house, let him write scripts, and let him only make movies" sounded again.

The call this time is even higher than the previous few times.

Because the crew has revealed that this may be the last movie directed by Yin Jun in the next three years. After shooting five or six movies in a high intensity, he needs to take a few years off.

This statement made the movie fans exclaimed that they were dissatisfied.

Although Yin Jun himself has not yet confirmed it, they believe that Yin Jun's laziness is almost the same.

But what are you tired?

With Yin Jun, you only have one movie a year on average, even if you work hard, you can adjust it.

That is, those chores such as doing business, stock trading, and investment involve Yin Jun's energy, so he has no time to film!

When they said this, they completely ignored the fact that Yin Jun's good friends Spielberg and George Lucas only made a movie in two or three years on average.

The reason why more movie fans are dissatisfied is that they are extremely expecting that Yin Jun will quickly do "Jurassic Park" and even "Da Vinci Code" after filming "Forrest Gump"!

You go to rest without saying a word. What should we movie fans who are waiting for you?

Especially "Jurassic Park", the filming and production process would have taken one or two years. When it was released, it might take three years in total.

You will have to wait three years for a break, and three years later and three years later. We have to wait at least six years before we can see "Jurassic Park". Is that true?

It has been at least twelve or thirteen years since the publication of "Jurassic Park" and its release. Isn't this too much trouble?

When Yin Jun rushed to Los Angeles from Xiangjiang to attend the premiere, the host present asked the second question after "Forrest Gump" which was about the above.

Faced with these positive protests and requests, Yin Jun could only smile apologetically.

His answer is the same as the official one.

The first is that in recent years, in order to win the Oscars, I have been too busy filming and need to rest.

In addition, many things in the company have been delayed due to filming.

In order to provide more than 100,000 employees of Kirin Group around the world, Yin Jun must also go to the company to work hard.

The last reason is that the current development of special effects technology has not met Yin Jun's expectations.

"As the original author of "Jurassic Park", I will definitely not make a movie that does not achieve the effect I expected. I want to present a better movie to everyone, rather than making a bad movie because I want to make money."

This answer was listed on the major newspapers published the next day.

Overall, book fans and movie fans, no matter how much they complain, have nothing to say about this sentence.

They knew Yin Jun’s habits.

A literary film can be prepared for several months, then filmed for two or three months, and produced for another two or three months, and will be released in almost half a year.

There are not many directors who pursue perfection like this in Hollywood.

You know, making quick movies is not a patent for Hong Kong, and Hollywood is the same.

Of course, the classics you see are carefully crafted.

But how many are there?

Hollywood produces thousands of movies every year, and there are only more than 200 movies that can be released in theaters.

Many of the other movies are made up, so they can only enter the DVD market to be released directly, or accept buyouts from TV stations, etc.

Even the more than 200 movies released, many of them have poor quality.

Most of the reasons are the hard work.

The Americans are not working hard like the people in Xiangjiang. They work more than ten hours a day, and they only work eight hours a day, and then they have to make movies in at most about a month.

What good movies can you make with such efficiency and time?

Yin Jun is different. He has taken the movie seriously from the beginning.

Even "Juno", which is commonly believed to be the least difficult thing for Yin Jun to film, took about half a year from preparation to filming to release.

Yin Junguang spent more than two months shooting this kind of movie that relies entirely on the plot, which shows how serious and careful he is.

Finally, everyone has seen the effect of "Juno" that 16-year-old Sophie Marceau was nominated for the Oscar for Best Actress, which is the best compliment to Yin Jun!

So they could only sigh and pray that Yin Jun would immediately start "Jurassic Park" as soon as he came back, so that he could comfort their hearts.

Putting aside this, let alone it.

"Forrest Gump" is naturally a movie released simultaneously around the world.

As the first premiere of Yin Jun and Tom Hanks personally attended, it did a very good job.

It took a full $1 million to open the premiere and invited many superstars and famous directors.

Anyone who Yin Jun knows about the film and television industry, such as Spielberg, George Lucas, Schwarzenegger, Stallone, etc., basically all come.

Such star-studdedness naturally makes the media and movie fans very happy.

The news that night and the next day were basically centered around "Forrest Gump", which also added a lot of discussion to it.

Once there are hot topics of discussion across the United States, more people will go to the movies.

In fact, "Forrest Gump" itself does not require such publicity, and it has received the greatest attention since its establishment.

The combination of Yin Jun and Tom Hanks, even those who don’t like to watch literary and artistic movies, are willing to go to the movie theater to take a look.

Not to mention the collective memory of people born in the 1930s and 1960s in the United States.

Its first-day box office reached 30 million US dollars, setting the first-day box office record in North America, second only to "Home Imperial"'s single-day record of 32 million US dollars.

On the second day, "Forrest Gump" rose again, increasing a little more, reaching 32 million US dollars, just to tie the single-day box office record of "Home Imperial".

The box office of 30 million US dollars on the third day made the total score of 92 million US dollars in the first weekend, the number one in North American film history!!

The box office in other regions around the world also reached 120 million US dollars.

In other words, its global first weekend box office has exceeded 200 million US dollars, second only to "Home Imperials".

This shows how powerful Yin Jun and Tom Hanks are.

At the same time, the average score of film reviewers is 8.7 points.

The survey scores of ordinary movie fans conducted by Nelson Survey Company reached as much as 9.2 points!

The word "popular" is naturally used in "Forrest Gump".

Of course, the outside world was full of exclamations, saying that "Forrest Gump" is expected to become the fourth super movie in the world with a box office of US$1 billion.

Movie fans and book fans were also excited. They felt that this was the power of Forrest Gump, and this was the super classic brought by Yin Jun and Tom Hanks.

If a literary and artistic movie can finally reach a box office of 1 billion US dollars, it is really an unprecedented miracle, and it may even be a miracle that no one will come!!

But many insiders don't think so.

They think that the most important reason why a literary and artistic film can reach a box office of US$210 million on the first weekend is the long-awaited release of feelings.

"Forrest Gump" was published in 1980. It has been 5 years since then. Its global sales have exceeded 60 million copies and has accumulated a large number of book fans.

A good book can be made into a best-selling movie.

So over the years, everyone has been looking forward to the fact that the books they like can be made into movies, and it is best if Yin Jun directed them himself.

After waiting for so long, the movie has finally been released, and it is the way they expected. It is also starring the two-time Oscar winner Tom Hanks, which has further boosted the audience's expectations.

This kind of catharsis of feelings and expectations naturally pushed up the box office results of the first weekend.

But after this catharsis, in the second week, except for some of them who watched it repeatedly, at most, the audience who were attracted by the super good reputation followed him into the cinema to watch it.

In the third week, this will be less and the box office will drop faster.

Not to mention overseas, although Forrest Gump's struggle will make many people feel empathized by it, Forrest Gump's experience has not made overseas audiences feel empathized by it.

Because they have never experienced the kind of life in the United States in the 1960s and 1970s, the sense of substitution will not be strong.

Therefore, overseas, the box office of "Forrest Gump" in the next few weeks is definitely not as good as the first weekend.

They predict that the box office results of "Forrest Gump" will definitely not reach 1 billion US dollars, but it is absolutely possible to reach more than 700 million US dollars, and 800 million US dollars are also likely.

But even the achievement of 700 to 800 million US dollars should be a peak that later generations cannot compare with.

With his excellent box office results in "Forrest Gump", Yin Jun is no longer just an excellent Oscar director who won a great award, but has truly succeeded in becoming a super director!!
