PS: Chapter 2 will be very late, book friends who go to bed early should go to bed early. I will not explain the reason for the late update, it is a personal matter.
After "The Last Days" was released, its extremely high box office generated a lot of heated discussion.
The "Chicago Sun" analyzed that this high box office is directly related to the '2012 Doomsday Trend' triggered in 2006. If it were not for the original doomsday trend, it is estimated that this movie would only have a box office of about 700 million U.S. dollars, and used "history"
"Weird and successful movie marketing case" to call its success.
A small film newspaper in the United States, "California Film Weekly", has a critical attitude: "The emergence of "Apocalypse" can be said to be a very coincidence. After the filming of "Apocalypse", the idea of the end of the world began to
came out, triggering panic all over the world, and its source is said to be just a simple envelope. Before it was released, countries around the world began to suppress the doomsday panic. After the doomsday panic passed and the fear turned into interest,
"Biochemical Apocalypse" came quietly again by coincidence, everything is a coincidence. Therefore, there is every reason to believe that this is the conspiracy of this Chinese person."
After this information was announced, it quickly attracted the attention of a wide range of apocalyptic fans, but only a few responded.
Other newspapers did not hesitate and took advantage of this great opportunity to attract the attention of the audience: "Nonsense, it is said that the original letter recorded a new way of dividing the Mayan calendar. Without advanced research on Mayan civilization, it is generally difficult to study.
Who in China came up with this kind of calendar? I guess there isn’t even a single person who studies the Mayan civilization. "California Film Weekly" is just sensationalizing, and the appraisal is complete."
Later, other newspapers followed suit and continued to criticize.
The poor "California Film Weekly" was just trying to expand its popularity and sales, but it didn't expect that it would receive so many attacks.
The FBI in the United States has not considered asking Wang Shang to find the conspirator. Unfortunately, nothing can be found at all, and indeed, as most newspapers said, no one in China studies the Mayan civilization at all.
In the end, everyone can only explain it all by coincidence.
But they all thought wrong. Wang Shang was actually the profiteer behind the scenes.
Compared with speculation about the end of the world, many North American entertainment media have focused their attention on Wang Shang and Chinese movies.
The Los Angeles Times commented: "Chinese films are beginning to rise in a strange form, and the leader among them is Wang Shang. His talent is extremely amazing. His works have once set box office miracles.
"The Fast and the Furious" and now "Biopocalypse" which created the 2012 apocalyptic and biochemical flow, and the popular "Death is Coming" are also his works!!"
The American "Fortune" magazine analyzed the report in detail on one page: "In recent years, both wealth and influence of China Summer Wang Film and Television Company and his boss Wang Shang have been rising at a terrifying speed. Not only in China
Domestic film rights have a lot of influence, and he has also gained a lot of popularity in the global film industry. With his youth and talent, he will surely become a world-class director in the future!! Let's wait and see!!"
——————————
After "The Last Days" became a hit, the biggest beneficiary was naturally the film's director, Wang Shang. His reputation was not enough to describe his success.
The previous "The God of Death" did not leave a deep impression on movie fans who were less exposed to Chinese films. At that time, Wang Shang could only be said to have a little fame in the professional circles of Hollywood in the United States. However, there were so many great directors.
In the Hollywood circle, Wang Shang is just an extremely small director, a "ciluo" naked newcomer, and he is still so young.
In terms of movie fans, it can basically be said that there are very few, and they are not as famous as the actors. They are at the level of Xiao He, a newcomer who has only shown his sharp talents.
After the release of "The Fast and the Furious", this huge popcorn movie led the box office in some regions for a period of time, and also triggered a global crazy racing trend. It also boosted the tourism economy of China's Nanhai Island and made it international.
His popularity increased greatly. At that time, Wang Shang was like a junior high school student who got good grades and made teachers and elders look at him. But he was still far behind his elders and teachers.
At this time, movie fans have gained a certain understanding of Wang Shang, and he has changed from a rising star to a moderately famous one.
At this time, after the appearance of "Biopocalypse", it finally gained recognition from the majority of people in the industry, and felt that it could compete with well-known Hollywood directors. As for movie fans, it can be said that they have gone from being famous since childhood to being quite famous.
.
But we still need to continue to work hard, and we will become famous, famous, famous all over the world, and famous all over the world.
The level is still far away, Wang Shang needs to continue to fight monsters, complete tasks, accumulate experience and continue to level up.
In addition to Wang Shang, the other two main characters have also skyrocketed in popularity. One is Andy Lau, who plays Liu Hua who is constantly struggling in the apocalypse. After many years of looking forward to it, Andy Lau finally successfully landed in Hollywood and gathered thousands of fans around the world.
Thousands of fans.
In terms of international star level, specialized agencies have deliberately re-adjusted his level. Although he is still at level 18, he has been placed in front of Cheng Long and Li Nianjie. In the past two years, Cheng Long and Li Nianjie have almost become
Faded out of Hollywood and retreated to China, so the star level coefficient dropped slightly.
With the increase in international popularity, Liu Tianwang's worth has naturally increased first. His agency has directly increased his salary by 20%, and other things such as appearance fees have also increased a lot. The one who has followed the rise is Liu Dehua.
The value of the company you set up is expected to be even higher.
What makes Liu Tianwang even more happy is that during this period, he appeared in the United States several times and was surrounded by American fans, which he had never enjoyed before. Moreover, many Hollywood film companies have already extended invitations to him, hoping that
Being able to join in the filming of a movie and use the style of "The End of the World" to increase publicity for his own movie. American film companies still like the low price of Chinese actors.
King Liu Tian knew who brought him this kind of treatment, so Wang Shang, the person who gave him the opportunity, naturally invited Wang Shang's family to dinner in return for his help.
In addition to Andy Lau, another beneficiary is Hollywood actor Robert Downey Jr.
Robert Downey Jr. can be said to be very happy in the United States right now, and he can see all the "American" flowers in one day.
Since the global success of "The Last Days", the important role he played as the mad scientist has become a household name.
“This is a tech nerd!!”
“Technology enthusiast!!”
"A crazy science enthusiast, in his eyes, there is only science, emotional intelligence is not important to him!!"
A woman with big hair who is more maternal said: "He is like a child. Although crazy, he is very lovable!!"
Comments on him in the film media also began to change from negative caricatures of an alcoholic and drug addict to naked boasts of "ciluo".
"It took Robert Downey Jr. ten years to transform from a drug addict to a successful actor. In addition to strength and luck, his own character is the decisive force that dominates all directions. If he wants to be under the eyes of everyone, from the moment he settles in
After he was released from nine months in prison, everyone thought he would live the rest of his life honestly. Who knew that he would soon step into Hollywood again. Now, just when the whole world is about to forget him, Robert Jr.
Downey, this "atypical" hero actually fought his way out."
"I am very happy that Robert Downey Jr. can rise again. This is a person's redemption and a person's struggle. We congratulate him!! We continue to look forward to his next movie!!"
Compared with the coverage of Liu Dehua, American film newspapers can be said to have less coverage, especially Liu Dehua, who only has a few small newspapers and a small page to report on. However, the coverage of Robert Downey Jr. can be said to be extensive coverage and praise.
Although Robert Downey Jr. is a bohemian, he still has great respect for Wang Shang: "Mr. Wang is my best friend. It was his persuasion that made me quit drug addiction. Thank you for not giving up.
Me, help me take part in the main role."
This kind of humble and grateful character also makes many people in the industry nod secretly.
