Chapter 94 Rave Reviews

Chapter 94 Rave reviews

"Will he come to Hollywood? I hope he can hire some American actors to play in his next movie. Of course not all of them will be played by Americans. You can hire Jackie Chen or Jet Li. I haven't seen a Jackie Chen movie for a long time.

"The young white man seemed to feel a little offended by his quick remarks and was trying his best to make up for it.

Wang Zhen has already fallen into thinking, will Chen Jingxing come to Hollywood? It seems that the possibility is not small. After all, it is usually difficult to resist the olive branch extended by outstanding commercial film directors from Australia, America, Europe and even Asia.

If the movie "Fatal Identity" can achieve good box office results, he can be sure that several major Hollywood studios will definitely give Chen Jingxing invitations.

As a fan of Chen Jingxing, Wang Zhen seems to support Chen Jingxing in coming to Hollywood.

After all, he had also read some interviews in China and knew that Chen Jingxing liked to make science fiction films, even science fiction blockbusters. If he came to Hollywood, wouldn't this dream be realized faster?

But there was a vague resistance in his heart. After all, he was just a director, and Chen Jingxing would not appear in front of the screen. Are there no Chinese directors in Hollywood? Of course there are, and the most famous one has won two Oscars for Best

Director winner.

But even the stories Ang Lee films in Hollywood are still about white people.

Compared with fellow directors from his motherland who go to Hollywood to make money, he seems to be more eager to see more faces from China or faces that look like him on the cinema screens here, not as supporting actors, not as buffoons, but

main character.

Instead of telling "their" story, tell "our" story, or pretend to tell "our" story.

Because the political correctness of this plane has not yet reached the level of Chen Jingxing's previous life, the current leader of this land is still a white man, and the "Black Panther" and even "Crazy Rich Asians" of Chen Jingxing's previous life have not yet been born.

Chen Sicheng clicked his tongue: "Why are you so uneducated? This is what Xiang Yu said. Of course, you can't imitate losers. Besides, Xiao Chen doesn't have the throne. What can he replace him with? Isn't there a saying that those who are like me will be born, and those who are like me will be born."

Will he die? I can't make a science fiction movie like his."

Columbia spent 13.2 million US dollars to buy the copyright. If it wants to recover the cost purely at the box office, it is estimated that it will have to reach at least 33 million.

[This movie shows a really cool thriller story, it's a shame this kind of thing will never happen in the hole-in-the-wall Hollywood anymore, it's unfortunate, but it's true]

Of course, there are also many negative reviews, or reviews that think the movie is mediocre, but Chen Jingxing has learned to ignore and ignore it. After all, most of the opinions are still positive.

Lu Yang interjected: "Can he replace it?"

The highest can even reach 65%.

In the past two days, Chen Jingxing's daily life has become visiting places to exchange and study during the day, and going back to the hotel in the evening to watch the rainbow farts of North American netizens on "Fatal Identity".

On that day, the number of movie theaters that ranked ahead of "Fatal Identity" at the box office was more than 1,000.

In order to achieve a higher opening number, Columbia has made many compromises with theater chains.

The box office of the second day of release also reached 1.08 million, and the cumulative box office in two days was 2.1 million U.S. dollars. Faced with the increase in attendance rather than a decrease, many theaters have begun to contact Columbia, but Columbia decided not to expand the theater in the first week.

It is necessary to cultivate the "hungry" of the market.

Columbia and Chen Jingxing were somewhat relieved after seeing this box office figure.

Therefore, Wang Zhen is still a little confused about the vague desire in his heart. He just feels that he seems to be a little too obsessed with the movie "Fatal Identity".

Chen Jingxing obtained the box office results of "Fatal Identity" on the first day on the second day. There were 725 theaters participating in the first week of screening. Each theater contributed an average of 1,400 US dollars in box office. The overall attendance rate actually reached 61%.

It received a box office of 1.02 million.

In other words, the producer and distributor can take away two-thirds of the box office.

Ning Hao and the other five people sitting in the back row also clapped and watched Chen Jingxing on the stage chatting and laughing happily with the audience.

Colombia can get 50% of the box office in the first week. In the second and third weeks, this proportion will continue to decrease. After the fourth week, Colombia's share will even drop below 40% (statistics of North American theater chains)

week starts on Friday).

[This movie is so great! I can’t describe it. I can’t spoil it for you because it would be meaningless. I can only say that the idea of ​​this movie is very cool!]

"Fatal Identity" obviously does not have this preferential treatment, and is even at the bottom of the ladder.

Guo Fan added: "Great directors should be like this."

[I have read it twice, and even the second time I watched it it was very good and interesting, and I also found more details]

Chen Sicheng tilted his head in the direction of Xiao Yang beside him: "Do you know what I was thinking when Xiao Chen came on stage just now?"

This agreement was considered very generous to the producers and distributors in China, but it seemed a bit low in Hollywood.

Chen Jingxing naturally has no objection to Columbia's decision. Originally, the box office of Fatal Identity in North America has no direct relationship with him.

Although he doesn't understand this "hungry" very well. After he wants to come to the theater, he will naturally have to race against time to schedule the film and collect the box office. But this is the North American film market after all, and Colombia is the expert. He believes that Columbia itself does not want to lose money.

What's more, like for comic-book blockbusters, the producer and distributor can negotiate a box office sharing agreement of more than 60%.

The sudden laughter and applause interrupted Wang Zhen's thoughts. It seemed that Chen Jingxing on the stage had told a joke.

[The movie is smarter than the audience, I love it so much, but you need to be completely immersed in the movie to feel its full charm]

[This is a good movie full of suspense, thrills, conspiracy and a lot of killing]

[WOW, I can only say that you have no idea where the plot will go. I believe the filmmakers will be happy to appreciate the audience's reaction]



Several people smiled knowingly.

Ning Hao said: "Sigh, this is what a man should do."

Hollywood movie box office accounts are based on a ladder rule, which depends on the specific agreement reached between the production distributor and the theater chain. For example, A-level blockbusters can straighten their backs in front of the theater chain.

Of course, tax will still be charged on the separate box office.

This result was enough for it to rank ninth in the North American box office list that day.

Although in the North American film market, the overall share ratio of producers and distributors is much larger than that in China, in fact, different films are treated differently.

[This movie reminds me of Agatha Christie’s novels. Friends who like this type of work really shouldn’t miss it]

Of course, there is still a big difference between 1 million and 30 million, but the box office of 1 million on the first day was only received in 725 theaters. Judging from the attendance and response of the premiere, it is certain that it will continue to expand the theaters.

Chen Jingxing received a slap on the back, interrupting his intoxication.

Chen Sicheng said with a smile: "Young people should not be too vain and be careful not to be praised. Look at me, I don't even watch movie review websites like Douban."

Xiao Yang snorted: "That's because there are all bad reviews, right? Did your movie pass the test on Douban?"

Chen Jingxing looked at Xiao Yang with accusing eyes: "How can a comrade like you tell the truth?"
