"How many?"

Liu Yifei swallowed the ingredients and thought he had heard it wrong. Lu Xiaoran simply handed her the phone, and said '54.2 million!'

"…Wow…"

Liu Yifei was shocked...

So far, she has starred in four movies, not counting the nature of "Love in May", "Love Winner", and "Kung Fu King" has a box office of 140 million; "Love Notice" has a box office of 53.02 million...

"Source Code" directly beat the box office of "Love Notice" on the first day...

"It seems that everyone is looking forward to me!"

Director Lu smiled reservedly...

Wan Qian sighed: "54 million, second only to "Transformers 3"?"

“…You mean first-day results?”

"Um!"

Lu Xiaoran was about to answer, but the phone rang, it was Zhong Lifang...

A few minutes later, Lu Xiaoran hung up the phone and explained to the two girls: "The Source Code" opened the North American theater chain to 2,200, which is considered a large-scale release!"

Liu Yifei: "That...can it be better than "Kung Fu King"?"

"…It depends on the situation. Two days after the release, the daily results were around 1.3 million US dollars. It is certain that the box office will be higher than the expansion of the release scale, but no one knows how high it can be...why? Are you going to develop in North America?"

"Not that, I just want to surpass "Kung Fu King"..."

"Eat something, hurry up and go to Suzhou and Nanjing tomorrow..."

"…Um."

Director Lu doesn't have the energy to stay overnight at the two girls...

...

At the same time, Light Media also received the news.

“54 million!”

What is this concept?

It directly refreshed the top of the first-day box office rankings!

Moreover, Douban reputation and Time.com have a reputation of 8.5 points or above!

This horse-treading...

Light originally thought that if "Source Code" encounters Waterloo, they will just go ahead "The Legend of Hongmen Banquet" until November 18.

Now it seems that November 25th is not a good schedule...

Otherwise, how many more days will you withdraw?

"Legend of Hongmen Banquet" is not the worst. The schedule they chose is very good, you can attack when you advance and defend when you retreat!

"The Military Order of the Female General of the Yang Family is Like a Mountain" is terrible!

November 18th…

The producer of this movie is Shanghai Film and the first producer - Cheng Long!

The second of the three works that Shanghai Film and Uncle Long collaborated: "The Revolution of 1911", "The Female General of the Yang Family", "The Twelve Zodiac Signs"...

"The Female General of the Yang Family" is dead...

Huayi Brothers are glad that "Happy Magic" is scheduled to be released on December 1st...

"East and West 2011" is considering whether to withdraw from December...

Everyone knows that a giant is about to set sail, and there is only a dead end in front of it!

This is how the market is, and it has always been like this - winners take all!

...

The facts were as they expected!

On November 12, "Source Code" won a box office of 74 million in a single day;

On November 13, the highest daily maximum of 82 million...

The box office successfully exceeded 200 million in the first weekend!

Breaking the box office record of domestic movies all the way...

Even the "Iron Armored Steel Fist", "Shocking God" and "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" released at the same time could not stop it.

Those three Hollywood blockbusters combined together in a single day are less than 8 million!

When the news came out, the industry was stunned...

Not only that, the North American results of "Source Code" were released on Wednesday, and it won a box office of US$13 million in the first week...

It directly surpassed "Flying Eagle Plan" (10.41 million), "Ten Ambush" (11.05 million), "Drunk Fist 2" (11.56 million), "Black Man" (12.5 million), and "A Good Man" (12.71 million), and ranked among the top 12 Chinese-language movies in North America box office...

"The Lone Agent", "Big Man" plus "Source Code", Lu Xiaoran's North American box office has accumulated more than US$38 million!

Become the fourth Chinese actor to enter the North American market after Bruce Lee, Cheng Long and Li Lianjie...

And he has achieved a purely Chinese movie!

The industry knows these things very well...

The "Source Code" has been praised to the sky online!

What is "not weaker than "Inception", "Chinese science fiction pioneer", "beat Hollywood"...

...

On Monday, Shenzhen Stock Exchange.

Orange Cinema, roadshow meeting.

"Do you think Source Code is more than Hollywood sci-fi?"

"No, "Source Code" can only be considered low-cost in Hollywood. It is a concept and is considered a relatively niche independent film. Therefore, you can see that its IDC score is less than 10,000, and the audience is too small."

"What about the special effects level?"

"Tell the truth?"

"Um."

Lu Xiaoran considered it: "If we follow the standard of Hollywood's mid-to-upstream standards, our current shooting and production gap is about 20 years, and the special effects gap is slightly shorter, about 10 years."

"So much difference?"

"This is a process of industrial development, and we are also working hard to build the foundation of industrialization. The company has selected four young directors and arranged for them to study in North America for a year. After they come back, they will make science fiction-related movies."

"In "Source Code", we used almost six special effects companies, and the 1,500-person team worked day and night for a year and a half to achieve such an effect!"

"Don't underestimate Hollywood. In fact, the two films "Iron Armored Steel Fist" and "Shocking God" can only be considered medium-sized Hollywood productions, not super A-level big productions. The special effects cost of "Source Code" is not enough for "Transformers" to fight!"

If a movie succeeds, can it beat Hollywood?

It is not so easy to beat people who have gathered the best film talents in the world?

"Why insist on industrialization?"

"If we still stay in realist creation and do not follow the path of film industrialization, we will not be able to see anything in a few years. Perhaps in a few decades, the industrial gap between us and Hollywood will become larger and larger. The country's economic scale is already very strong. The six major Hollywood production companies have all had branches in Beijing. They have all seen the potential of the Chinese market. Why don't we make up for our weaknesses?"

"Now is a good opportunity. Science fiction has a big background, that is, the country is strong. The audience's confidence depends on the country. If some themes are shot, the audience will believe it."

"In the future...I will definitely continue to follow the pace of industrialization..."

"I heard that the investment in Source Code is 120 million, so will it make a bigger investment movie after that?"

"…120 million is very large in the domestic market, but if it is placed in the world, it can only be considered a small matter. Even if we plan to spend 100 million to create three movies: "Taking Tiger Mountain", "Gravity" and "The Wandering Earth", the investment scale can only be considered medium!"

"What industrial films need is big investment, high concepts, and big special effects!"

Several reporters who asked questions were a little confused...

One billion can only be considered medium?

No, the key is that he is serious...

And the logic is self-consistent, and there is no room for refutation!
