"Mr. Wilson, on the Chinese side, Hollywood lost."
"'Arrival' is expected, but what about 'Skeleton King'?"
"The box office ranks ahead of "Arrival" and behind "Superman"..."
"How many?"
"Arrival" has a box office of 35 million, and "Skeleton King" has a box office of 46 million..."
"Where's Superman?"
"Fifty-two million!"
"How many?"
"Fifty-two million!"
"'Skull King' ranks behind 'Superman'... So, what about 'Batman'? Is it even less than 'Superman'?"
"'Batman' is 64 million! Ranked first, 4 million higher than 'Wolverine'!"
"???"
Gobia Corporation.
When Wilson received the box office data handed to him by Allen, his whole body was shocked and he almost couldn't hold the data report in his hand.
When he saw the terrifying box office of "Batman" of 64 million, his mind instantly went blank.
The astonishing box office success of this "Batman" is simply crazy!
Although "Skull King Kong" is not a film produced by Cobia, it represents Hollywood.
Hollywood movies can hit the market in China, and their results can be unsatisfactory, but...
It definitely cannot lose to Chinese movies!
This is simply a...
humiliation!
“What about the data here in the United States?”
"..."
"What! This!"
"..."
After Wilson finished flipping through China's data, he silently turned over the Hollywood page's data.
Then...
He gasped and sat down on the chair, not knowing what to say.
At this moment, he finally realized what Allen's silent expression meant when he first came in.
September 1st.
What a nightmare!
………………………………
"Boom!"
"Batman" ranked first with $15 million. "Wolverine" ranked second with $13 million. "Superman" ranked second with $9.3 million, which is one million more than "Skull King Kong".
?Seven million dollars directly for Arrival?”
"It's impossible, it's impossible. I will admit that it will lose in China. There were signs of it when it premiered, but in the United States! Jackson, tell me, why did our movie also lose in the United States?"
"There must be something wrong with this data. Wait, is there a statistical error somewhere? Why can't "Skull King Kong" even enter the top three? What is the reason!"
"This data is correct? Mr. Jackson! Dear Mr. Jackson, do you know what this data represents? Do you know what kind of shadow our Paramount Company and Century will suffer after tonight? Do you know what the entire Hollywood company will experience?
What kind of shadow?”
"We will become a shame, a shame defeated by China. Do you understand humiliation? It's the kind of being overthrown by a weak being, then riding on you and slapping you constantly. You may even
Become a big joke!"
"Didn't Gobia become a joke before? Didn't you laugh at Gobia's Wilson as a fool? What about now? Do you think I'm a fool?"
"..."
"..."
After Andrew read Huaxia's data report, his originally calm mood finally couldn't help but explode.
He picked up the water glass on the table and smashed it on the ground. The water glass was smashed into pieces and hot water splashed at little Jackson's feet.
Little Jackson stared blankly at the shattered water glass, then raised his head blankly.
At this moment, he only felt that his head was buzzing, even though Andrew was pointing at his face and scolding, but!
He found that he couldn't hear clearly what Andrew was cursing.
His mind went blank.
How is that possible!
impossible!
this……
My Chinese performance of "Arrival" plus the good American performance is just 13 million US dollars!
It can’t even compare to the results of “Batman”’s one-sided United States!
this……
During his career as a director, Jackson Jr. was completely confused.
He knew that no matter how much Andrew scolded him, it would not be able to compare with the violent storm on the Internet and the cynicism from the American media. "Skull King Kong" might be better, but "Arrival" and himself might suffer unprecedented scolding!
Can I bear this kind of scolding?
he suddenly asked himself.
"Tell me, dear Mr. Jackson, what gift did Wei Wuji give you? Why did he give you a gift at this time?" After Andrew got angry for a while, he finally calmed down.
Then he looked at the silent little Jackson standing in front of him, and he felt agitated for no reason.
"???" Little Jackson raised his head and looked at Andrew blankly.
He saw doubt and strangeness in Andrew's eyes.
This feeling made his heart tremble slightly.
"Mr. Jackson, we are friends. Don't look at me like this. I'm not questioning you. I hope you can understand that this box office failure is not just a failure of our company's box office war. Do you understand?
He represents the face of Hollywood. You have to know that no Hollywood movie has ever been so crushed by Chinese movies..."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Andrew." Little Jackson lowered his head.
"The publicity plan continues. I couldn't restrain the anger in my heart just now. Sorry, okay, you go ahead and do your work. Don't take it to heart. Maybe "Arrival" will turn around. Also, I know about the gift.
This is a dirty trick used by this Chinese director to sow discord between us. I still understand this, but I don’t like your torture without saying a word..." After Andrew watched little Jackson lower his head, he finally stood up.
He got up, came to little Jackson and patted him on the shoulder.
The doubt in his eyes before was completely gone, and he began to speak more earnestly.
"I...Mr. Andrew, I understand!" Little Jackson suddenly became filled with mixed feelings, and his eyes were slightly wet when he raised his head.
"Okay, let's go."
"I'll work hard!" Little Jackson clenched his fist.
"Um."
After little Jackson left, Andrew's earnest expression suddenly became extremely cold.
He looked at the box office information form on the table.
Then, he tore the information form into pieces and threw them into the trash can. Then he sat back on the chair and closed his eyes.
………………………………
"Is this box office data true?"
"It's true!"
"We won?"
"Yes, we won!"
"Damn it, Ergouzi is awesome at "remote", Chinese movies are awesome!"
"Have you noticed? Not only have we completely suppressed Hollywood movies in China, we have even suppressed Hollywood movies in the United States. "Batman" topped the Hollywood box office debut in September!"
"Grass!"
"..."
At four o'clock in the morning on September 2nd.
When the box office information for the September premiere was announced, netizens were stunned.
They feel like they are dreaming!
August is the most humiliating month for the entire Chinese film industry. After all, in August, all Chinese films were reduced to rubbish by Hollywood films!
At the beginning of August, how did the Chinese media promote Chinese movies?
The rise of Chinese movies, the most promising month, Chinese movies vs. Hollywood movies, the dawn is coming!
Most promising month?
hehe!
It will always be the most promising month. It will always give movie fans and all Chinese people some undue hope, but it will never truly surpass Hollywood movies!
Every time they end up being crushed, and they all end in endless failure.
In fact, movie fans have heard so many stories like this that they almost feel like vomiting.
Even hearing the word hope, they would curse!
Although they have expectations for the September movie, they don't have any hope of victory!
Even if every "Remote" movie has exploded at the box office, several times it has been on par with Hollywood movies, several times...
However, the disappointment in August made them know that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. "Batman" and "Superman" really encountered too many twists and turns in the middle. These twists and turns make it difficult to believe that these two movies
The movie will win, and it will be compared to Hollywood movies.
Miracle?
Although there is, it is really difficult to have a miracle with a start like this!
but!
The miracle finally happened!
And this time the miracle is double. "Batman" not only topped the charts in China, it even topped the charts in the United States!
It's like a dream, and it's like a dream!
Untrue!
Yes, not true...
"Batman" grossed 64 million at the box office in China, and has already begun to break the record of "The Pianist"!
And he received US$15 million in the United States, which also broke the record of "The Pianist on the Sea"!
Of course, this is not the craziest thing. The craziest thing is that if this trend continues, "Batman" will most likely become the first three of the four Hollywood movies, and it is a Chinese movie!
What is this concept?
It's a huge milestone for Chinese cinema, but it's a dark month for Hollywood.
…………………………
remote.
In Fatty Wei's office.
The morning sun gradually rises, and the bright sunshine shines on this land, adding endless hope to this land.
Fatty Wei looked at the astonishing box office data of "Batman" blankly.
He read it over and over again.
He spent most of the night looking at this terrifying data.
To this day he is still confused.
He had predicted the box office of "Batman", but even if he were asked to predict it again, he would not have predicted that "Batman" would have such a terrifying box office!
After all, who would have thought that there would be a chance to break the terrifying record of "The Pianist on the Sea"?
Fatty Wei felt like he was going crazy!
"Dong dong dong."
"Come in."
"Mr. Lu broke the record!"
"I know, my "Batman" box office..."
"Not only the box office of "Batman", but also, as of last night, Mr. Lu's album "Lu Yuan" has officially surpassed McVes' global single album sales, and has officially reached the top of the personal album list!
Mr. Lu is also ranked among the top twenty singers in the world!"
"What! Ayuan, what the hell..."
When Fatty Wei saw Wu Tingting holding the data and finishing her sentence with excitement on her face, the corner of Fatty Wei's mouth twitched.
"So far, the Guinness Book of Records has reached 180 personal records for Mr. Lu! This data continues to increase..."
