Su Yunwan was originally a princess of the Qi Kingdom. After getting drunk, she woke up to find herself an 18th-tier female celebrity who had been kicked out of her family, was as black as coal, an...
Chapter 246 Box Office Surpass
At midnight the next day, two highly anticipated films were released simultaneously around the world.
Soon, comments related to "Blade 6" began to appear on the Internet.
[Ahhhh!!! Blade 6 is so good!!]
【Maintaining the level that Matthew should have, very exciting! 】
[Especially the big scenes that Matthew is so good at, watching them makes my adrenaline surge!]
[However, why do I feel that it is not as exciting as I imagined? ? ? ]
I actually think it's pretty good, after all, it's the sixth installment. But, regardless, Matthew's movies are still top-tier Hollywood action blockbusters!
Soon, reviews for the movie "Sword Forge" also came out.
[It's great, it's well worth the three Cannes Film Awards! ]
[Absolutely classic martial arts movie, super awesome! ]
[My Chinese martial arts spirit is rekindled after watching this! ]
…
A day later, early in the morning, Su Yunwan was awakened by the good news in the group.
[Report—Our movie's total box office has exceeded 300 million RMB!]
[!!!!!! So many! It seems our Chinese netizens are going to be really supportive!!!]
【Word of mouth is also very good! 】
[That's good, now I can finally sleep.]
[By the way, what about Blade 6? ]
The box office there was around $60 million, which converts to RMB around $400 million.
【I didn’t lose that much! ! ! !】
【It’s not shameful to have such an achievement! 】
A few hours later, Matthew Studio also received data news about the premiere day.
After listening to the assistant's analysis, the entire studio cheered.
60 million US dollars, which is nearly one-third higher than the first-day box office of the previous film.
“It actually broke the first-day record!”
"marvelous!"
"I knew it!"
"It seems that the champion of this PK can only be us!"
Matthew raised his lips slightly, "By the way, how was the performance of the Huaxia movie?"
"Less than ours. The first day box office was only about 40 million US dollars."
Forty million?
Everyone was suddenly stunned and the atmosphere was quiet for a few seconds.
Despite the impact of their "Blade 6", it still had a box office of 40 million, which was beyond his expectation.
The assistant explained: "Most of the box office revenue comes from Huaxia."
So that's how it is.
Everyone snorted in unison, filled with endless ridicule.
Matthew also gave an undeniable smile.
"Wait, when the tide goes out, everyone will know who is swimming naked."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
But the next day, when everyone saw the information, they were stunned.
The box office of "Sword Forgery" has increased instead of decreased, exceeding 50 million US dollars!
"Humph, it's just the last struggle of the Chinese people."
"Right, right, right. China has a lot of things, but it has a lot of people."
"We're not bad either, our box office revenue has exceeded 80 million US dollars!"
"Don't worry, I think their box office revenue will start to halve in the next few days."
"That's right. You can't defeat us by relying on human wave tactics."
Everyone reacted and became confident again.
But on the fourth day, when the assistant saw the information, he suddenly jumped up from his chair.
A look of horror.
Seeing her reaction, everyone was puzzled. They walked to the computer and were all dumbfounded.
The box office of "Sword Forgery" is still rising, and even its single-day box office has exceeded the box office of their "Blade 6"!
Moreover, even their North American box office is almost the same as their movies!
Overtaken!
How is this possible!
Matthew unconsciously tightened the cup in his hand, and his expression became extremely ugly.
The first time I opened my phone, I searched for "Sword Forger" on overseas social platforms.
[Super exciting, immerse yourself in the world of Chinese martial arts! ]
[The fighting scenes are very exciting, an art form that combines both aesthetics and power!]
[Attracted by the charm of Chinese martial arts! ]
[It's really good. This movie is like a treasure. I can't help but want to watch it a second and third time.]
Even on foreign websites where there are few Chinese people, his works are praised by many, while his films are mostly criticized.
After watching Blade 6, I felt that it was no different from the previous ones.
[Matthew should try to innovate. No matter how effective the routine is, the audience will get tired of it if he keeps doing it.]
[If you have watched the previous ones, you don't need to watch this. You can completely imagine the plot.]
Everyone saw it.
An uncontrollable thought popped up in my mind: When the tide recedes, it turns out that we are the ones swimming naked???
Matthew's face twisted for a moment, and he slammed his hand heavily on the table.
"Book me a ticket for 'Sword Forge'!"
He wanted to see what magic this movie had!
The assistant quickly booked the tickets, and the others also bought tickets. They put on baseball caps and went to the screening room.
The theater was packed with audiences, and there were only two or three Asian people in the audience. The rest were all blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners.
Seeing this, even if everyone is willing to believe it, they have to admit that "Sword Forgery" really attracted overseas audiences.
But why!
A Chinese martial arts film, haven’t you seen enough?
Just when everyone was confused, the screen slowly dimmed.
The sword is born, the princess enters the world, the martial arts world is in turmoil, and undercurrents surge.
That’s it?
Such a simple story?
Everyone was silently complaining in their hearts, but when the first fight came and the character played by Su Yunwan jumped up, everyone laughed at the same time.
That's too old-fashioned!
As the plot slowly progresses, the screen is filled with flashing swords and heavy knife shadows, combined with the ever-accelerating drum beats and clacking sounds, which inexplicably makes people's heart beat faster.
The whole audience fell silent at some point, and no one reacted until the screen went dark.
The audience stood up and clapped their hands excitedly.
The warm applause echoed in the air like thunder and lasted for a long time.
“It’s a Cannes award-winning film!”
“It’s wonderful!”
The people in Matthew's studio only just began to react. They stared at each other in disbelief.
It’s such a good shot!
The pictures, music, story, rhythm and actors are all impeccable.
Even those who were resistant were unknowingly immersed in the world of Chinese martial arts.
Matthew frowned, and his deep eyes revealed complex emotions.
