According to a report published by the Motion Picture Association of America in 2004, North America, as the world's largest film market, contributed a total box office of US$8.9 billion to the world in 2004, while other regions, such as Japan, European and American countries, and China
The relatively large box office market is only about 600-900 million, and the difference between the two sides is 10 times.
Therefore, as long as the entire North American film market is occupied, it will mean that the world film market is occupied.
This report reminded Wang Shang that if China wants to establish Chinese Hollywood, the most important thing is the expansion of the number of movie fans. The fundamental factor is to improve the economic level of the entire country to a certain level, and at the same time, the entertainment industry will also advance simultaneously.
Wang Shang cannot do anything that affects the economy, but he has been doing it to develop movie fans. For example, with "Fast and Furious", he has successfully turned some people who are not movie fans into movie fans.

Two days after its release in North America, "The Fast and the Furious" has captured the entire North American film market with its speed and passion, and its popularity is still spreading!
On the fourth day after the screening, Paramount finally sent Wang Shang the box office data of "The Fast and the Furious" around the world.
In North America, the box office of "The Fast and the Furious" on its opening day was US$25.06 million, ranking third in the box office on that day, second only to the US$45 million of "Star Wars: Episode I: Revenge of the Sith" released at the same time.
$26 million for 7 Days at the Chocolate Factory!!
On the second day, as word of mouth and popularity spread, the daily box office did not fall but increased, and it rose rapidly. It directly reached the height of 31.3 million yuan!!
Second only to "Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith" with 35 million US dollars, it defeated the highly praised "Chocolate Factory" and won the runner-up in the North American box office market on the same day!!
When these data were released, the eyes of countless media, filmmakers, and film critics in the North American market instantly dropped: "What kind of movie is this?"
They all became curious about the movie, and couldn't help buying tickets to watch it in the cinema. After watching it, they exclaimed in disbelief: "This is really made in China?"
Because of this box office data, many movie fans began to become curious about movies that they had never heard of, or had heard of but were not interested in, and then began to watch the movies. After watching them, colleagues in Hushuang also reluctantly
Don't hesitate to discuss it with other people.
Movie fans in North America have a very good viewing habit for the film industry. That is, if they encounter a good movie, they like to include this topic in their daily chats. If they don't watch it, they will definitely be despised by others, and even be a little short.
.
This is a condition that a mature film market should have. Films have penetrated deeply into life.
So when they discover "Fast and Furious", they will start to proudly show the plot in front of friends who have never seen it...
In this way, with the continuous publicity from the media and fans, the racing storm set off by "Fast and Furious" is getting stronger and stronger!!
In addition to being a hit at the box office, "The Fast and the Furious" has also spread its influence to other aspects. Authorities in the United States and Canada discovered that due to the influence of "The Fast and the Furious", many night racing groups began to appear in various states and cities, giving
Cities bring a lot of instability.
Moreover, in the past few days, car accidents have occurred frequently, three or four times more than usual!
As a result, I found out after checking that it was because I couldn't resist racing after watching "The Fast and the Furious" that led to the traffic accident.
What a deceiving movie.

In addition to North America, there are other major film markets in Europe, South America, Australia, and Southeast Asia. After "The Fast and the Furious" was released, it jumped directly to the forefront of the local box office, and even directly broke through "Star Wars Prequels" and successfully reached the top spot.
Number one at the box office.
Countless movie fans were attracted by the passionate passion and walked into the cinema to watch the movie.
In many regions, "Fast and Furious" has also set many box office records.
The racing craze spurred by "The Fast and the Furious" has also triggered a series of drag racing and traffic accidents, leaving local government transportation departments in a state of distress.
In Brazil, "Fast and Furious" can be said to be very popular. In addition to the good-looking movie, the biggest reason is the Brazilian music at the end of "Fast and Furious", because during the promotion, it was specially
It is said that it was created by a famous Brazilian music master.
"You see, China on the other half of the world admires Brazilian music!" In terms of national pride, Brazilians can be said to have received great satisfaction.

After Wang Shang got the box office data, he hurriedly convened a meeting with the studio's top management.
"This time, the box office of "Fast and Furious" in North America was a total of 56.36 million U.S. dollars on Doubleday; while in other countries in the world, including Europe, South America, and Australia, which are handled by Paramount, it received a total of 40.4 million U.S. dollars. That is,
That is to say, in these places, we received a total of 96.76 million US dollars, equivalent to 880 million yuan!!"
"880 million...good!!" Several people were excited after hearing this and couldn't help but applaud!!
At this time, General Manager Bi Han took another report: "Now, let me talk about the box office in Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, which is handled by Datang International Distribution Channel. In these regions, "Fast and Furious" also achieved
It achieved impressive results, earning a total of 23 million U.S. dollars on Saturday and Sunday, especially Japan, which alone contributed 10 million U.S. dollars to the box office."
Post-production manager Liu Yuqing added excitedly: "In addition to the domestic box office revenue of nearly 200 million yuan, the total is about 1.28 billion yuan."
It’s not that I don’t know, it’s just that I’m shocked!!
“This is just the box office for the two Christmas days!!”
"So, the global release of "Fast and Furious" can be said to be a great success!!"
"Haha, the box office in these two days alone has almost paid back!!"
Everyone was talking happily.
Lu Yang, the head of the screenwriting team, said with a smile: "It goes without saying that "Fast and Furious" can definitely become the second film series after "Death is Coming"."
"Absolutely!!"
Bi Han made a joke at this time: "Haha, as long as we unite with Wang Dong, we will definitely be able to enjoy the hot food..."
"That's..." Everyone looked at Wang Shang very eagerly.
Follow Wang Shang, success and fame will be a piece of cake!
Wang Shang saw that the topic was getting further and further, and he immediately corrected him: "Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. Now let's talk about our recent plans."
As soon as Wang Shang finished speaking, the others began to sit upright.
Since the last time the special effects team faced off against Huang Zelang, Wang Shang has also discovered that his current character positioning still has a big flaw - his personality is too soft.
This kind of character is definitely a failure when it comes to running a company.
Considering this, Wang Shang began to deliberately cultivate his character and behavior, change his usual work style, and become more rational, more serious, and more strict. At first, a few employees did not notice but ended up getting into trouble, and Wang Shang was
Shang publicly criticized him by name.
Although the cultivation of Wang Shang's character and behavior has not had much effect for the time being, it has gradually made Wang Shang become more dignified. The employees in the studio began to become cautious in front of Wang Shang, not daring to make any mistakes.
of arrogance.
"The publicity team and planning team collaborated to hold a press conference to announce the box office data of "Fast and Furious", which will surely further stimulate the box office of "Fast and Furious"."
"This Saturday, "Death Comes 3" will also start to be released. We cannot relax in terms of publicity. And "Speed" will also be released next month. The planning team remembers to spend more time on publicity."
The people in the marketing and planning groups were taking notes carefully...
When the meeting was almost over, Bi Han's secretary suddenly walked in and told Wang Shang a piece of news - someone was learning from "Fast and Furious" to commit a robbery. The local TV station was broadcasting it live.
"..." Wang Shang frowned after hearing this. He said to his secretary: "Turn on the TV."
Later, under the operation of the secretary, the large TV installed in the conference room was finally adjusted to a local TV station, which was playing a live news broadcast.
A reporter held a microphone and said: "Dear viewers in front of the TV, this is in front of the ICBC business hall in Hengkeng Town, Woling City. A shocking robbery case is taking place here. Five gangsters were carrying kitchen knives.
He rushed into the business hall, took hostages and threatened to rob the bank."
"However, what is ridiculous is that two of the gangsters also used hammers to break the glass of the business window. Don't they know that those are bulletproof glass?"
"The police have surrounded them and are negotiating with them..."
"The expert team is collecting their personal information and analyzing them..."
"The gangster seemed to be drunk..."
Finally, the reporter couldn't help but joked: "According to the initial information provided by the police, these people only came up with the idea of robbery after watching the movie "Fast and Furious". Here, I have to admire them for actually knowing the police station.
I don’t have the money to rob them…”
Seeing this, Wang Shang and others looked at each other in shock.
I can't laugh or cry...
Finally, Wang Shang thought for a while and then told the planning team: "I'm afraid that someone will take advantage of this news, so I'll hurry up and make a plan tonight to prevent anyone from using it to discredit King Studio."
"Okay!" Several other people nodded repeatedly. Although the probability of this is unlikely, it should be prevented early.
After watching for a few minutes, the 'gangsters' seemed to have been persuaded by the police, and finally surrendered obediently, received a pair of 'bracelets', and stepped into the police car.
According to the reporter’s words: “What awaits them will be severe punishment by law!”
Um...maybe there's also soap picking for future roommates.
The farce ended here, but it gave the crowd a lot of talking points, and there were a few more soap pickers in the society.
As for Tianwang Studio and "The Fast and the Furious", it can be said that they were also shot.
