Duncan, the director of "El Niño", one of the four Hollywood movies ever produced, has been holding back the energy in his heart to regain that glorious position ever since he was surpassed by "The Pianist".
No one wants to be used as a backdrop for transcendence.
Well, maybe there are people, but at least Duncan's ideological awareness is not that high.
then……
"Sun God" was born.
The film invited the famous Hollywood actress Anelle to participate in the film, and specially invited the special effects team that had filmed "Wars and Roses" to produce the film's post-production. At the same time, the quality of the film in all aspects has been repeatedly edited and improved until
After adjusting the plot to the one that I am most satisfied with, the film was officially completed and submitted for review.
Everything was done to the best of my ability.
He is full of hope for this "God of the Sun", and he has even considered making this movie as the first movie in the Heroes series universe, leaving a small easter egg in the ending.
Facing the media, he was so confident that he even made bold statements to announce that he was finally back after being silent for such a long time!
It is really hard to accept that he has fallen from his highest position as one of the top four film directors in Hollywood.
Now!
He wants everything back!
Many directors and actors in Hollywood expressed their support for "The God of the Sun", and even the bosses of many companies also stood up to support the movie. Various theater chains also appropriately gave "The God of the Sun" a lot of support.
After arranging some films, many media started to brag about "God of the Sun" without thinking...
"God of the Sun" is coming with force.
Everyone regards this "Sun God" as the hope of Hollywood movies to curb "Batman 2".
The purpose is to prevent the rise of "Batman 2".
For a while...
The waves are rising and the wind is surging!
It's a pity that the world is still the same world.
but……
Times have changed.
The rise of some beings cannot be stopped by anyone.
…………………………………………
Early morning on December 3rd.
Duncan did not go to see the reviews and ratings of "God of the Sun", but nervously waited for the box office of "God of the Sun" on its opening day.
There is always only one point that determines the success or failure of a movie.
That's the box office.
The box office on the opening day of "God of the Sun" determines what heights "God of the Sun" can reach in the future, and at the same time, it will also prove whether it can return to glory!
Not only looking forward to it, but also worrying about gains and losses.
"Mr. Duncan...the box office is out!"
"How many?"
"The global box office of "Batman 2" on the second day was US$65 million, an increase of US$3 million from the first day! It may really break the record!"
"I'm not asking about the box office of "Batman 2," I'm asking about our "God of the Sun"!"
"Ah, this..."
"How many!"
"About 20 million U.S. dollars... "God of the Sun" will have no problem paying back, and it can still make money. Mr. Duncan, in fact, it is already very good. If it is followed up... Mr. Duncan?"
"..."
When the assistant looked at Duncan, his voice suddenly stopped.
The whole office was quiet.
He saw Duncan sitting down on the chair with a pale face, panting heavily and trying to clench his fists, but he couldn't do it.
It was as if all the strength in the body was drained away at this moment...
"I……"
"Why, again..."
"Lost..."
I don’t know how long it took, but Duncan finally stood up with difficulty, his throat trembling, as if he had exhausted all his strength to say these few words and then...
In the end, he couldn't stand still and fainted.
The cruelest thing in the world is not that you fall hard from a height. The cruelest thing is that you find that you have tried your best, but you are still being crushed hard and unable to resist.
You know, you've...
There is no chance of transcendence!
……………………
The American Movie Network's review of "Sun God" was not very good.
Basically, they were all comments about "bad movies", "in what era do we still make movies like this", "you are out of date, the plot is too monotonous", "we don't like this setting".
Of course, what directly caused "God of the Sun" to plummet was the box office.
After seeing the box office of "God of the Sun", Wilson's throat seemed to be pinched and he could no longer speak.
Hope turned into disappointment in an instant.
Although the box office did not fail, there is really no way to compete with "Batman 2".
Twenty million versus over sixty million!
The gap is so huge that there is no way to fill it.
What can be done?
The night is very deep!
Wilson lowered his head silently.
The feeling of powerlessness is deeper and deeper.
It wasn't until the dawn sunlight shone on Wilson's face that a trace of blood appeared on Wilson's face.
At this moment, he can only pray that "Batman 2" will not break the final record of "Wars and Roses"!
otherwise……
This will be a catastrophe for all of Hollywood.
The Chinese directors that I once looked down upon, the Chinese companies that I once looked down upon, the Chinese people that I once looked down upon...
them……
Rise?
…………………………
Has China risen?
No……
It can only be said that it is rising, but not completely rising.
Although the current Huayao mobile phones rely on their innate advantages to defeat IP mobile phones, and the box office of "remote" movies is rising steadily and hitting the number one spot in Hollywood movies, China is still a little behind from its rise.
However, some people have predicted the future well in advance.
Although the 4G era is the era of "remote", Lu Yuan knows that the era when the whole country will really start wrestling with each other is the era of 5G, or even 6G.
Wang Yaohua also understands this, so he is not lost by the superficial data and sales.
He understood that he had only temporarily won the mobile phone category, but they still had not won the real core technology competitors.
Moreover, Wang Yaohua has vaguely felt that many Western countries have begun to think of ways to squeeze out the entire "Huayao" company, especially the United States, which has begun to use some national-level means.
They have a sense of crisis.
"Shuren, what do you think about our investment of 2 billion, all of which will be used for 5G research and development and future planning?
"To be the largest technology R&D laboratory in China? Mainly focus on communications?"
"Well, I feel that we may have to face some international pressure in the near future!"
"What about your "theatre chain"? I remember that the "theater chain" is very busy, right?"
"Opening a theater chain can't help China... I plan to hand over all the "theater chain" to Wang Hao! He has been playing outside for too long, and he is still filming "Meteor Garden". It's really... ah... wait for it.
After that, let him come over no matter what!"
"Well, in-laws, you have the final say. If investment is needed, I can provide about one billion! In terms of technology and talents, what kind of talents you say you need, I will find them myself! You manage the internal things of the company..."
"good!"
In the teahouse.
The two middle-aged men, who were just over fifty, looked into the distance at the same time and nodded at the same time.
Their eyes are full of longing for the future.
However, there is a strong sense of crisis.
After all, they understand that the future will never be smooth sailing.
Win once...
not enough!
…………………………………………
No one knew that not long after the 4G era began, some people in China began to prepare for the 5G and 6G eras.
Most people just focus on the film industry!
It seems that they will be able to see another incredible miracle in their lifetime!
The box office of "Batman 2" continues to surge at a record-breaking speed every day. Every day, the box office is compared with the previous "Wars and Roses", and the box office of "Batman 2" has not disappointed.
Everyone was disappointed. Every day, the box office revenue was slightly higher than that of "Wars and Roses".
Everyone is very excited, and even Guinness staff have begun preparing various record-breaking certificates.
They knew "Remote" was about to break another record.
The box office king of the world!
Um……
Does this name sound quite domineering?
Time passes day by day, and in just eighteen days, "Batman 2" has grossed one billion U.S. dollars at the global box office.
The entire Chinese film industry is in a state of excitement!
The box office record for "Wars and Roses" was $1.5 billion in 45 days!
We are getting closer and closer to this goal.
Compared to China, there is a dead silence here in Hollywood, and the American film industry feels endless depression.
"Remote" presses deeply on people like a huge pressure, leaving them breathless.
Some people have begun to pray that "Batman 2" will drop in the middle, or that some movie will come out in the middle to defeat "Batman 2" in one fell swoop, but...
How is that possible!
"Batman 2" marks the official rise of the superhero movie series to this world.
Except for Lu Yuan, a guy who defied fate and changed his destiny, no one can go against the times.
Ebb and flow...
Everyone was in a trance for some reason.
This person...
Have you always dominated this era?
wrong!
Creating...
This era?
…………………………
when……
After "Batman 2" grossed US$15 million at the global box office on its 45th day of release, the entire "remote world" was filled with joy.
The total box office is 1.53 billion!
It is a staggering $30 million higher than the box office of "Wars and Roses", one of the four legendary Hollywood movies.
history!
Truly born!
The legend was also born at this moment.
Fatty Wei was so surprised that he almost went crazy!
but……
Just when everyone was rejoicing, Duncan, the director of "God of the Sun", stood up.
"It! Doesn't beat Fire and Roses at all!"
"'Wars and Roses' was a movie made seven years ago. At that time, the price of money and the price of movie tickets were completely different!"
"If you convert the movie ticket price at that time to the current movie ticket price, at least... it would take a box office of 1.8 billion to be considered equal!"
"So...it has no transcendence! It can only be the highest-grossing movie on paper, that's all!"
"..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the Hollywood film industry, which had felt extremely humiliated, instantly regained its former pride and vitality.
but……
It didn't last long, and Lu Yuan's official Twitter, which had been silent, was updated.
He @Duncan.
"What if 'Titanic' had a box office of over 2 billion?"
