Early morning of June 17th.
The second day box office results for "Saw" came out very quickly.
Thanks to the participation of the Chinese Theater Chain, the total box office on the second day reached three million US dollars.
The box office of three million US dollars totals almost 20 million RMB.
This data is absolutely astonishing.
These are the box office results of the two cinemas.
After seeing this data, everyone in the entertainment industry fell into a brief silence.
Then……
The overwhelming voices, mixed with various news that Allen was taking the blame, instantly spread throughout Hollywood and the American entertainment industry.
Allen became famous overnight, just like in Saw. Countless reporters surrounded the Columbia Building to watch Allen...
All kinds of strange and bizarre questions arise one after another.
He understood that many times, once a hole was torn, it would be impossible to repair it.
Alan looked at the reporters.
He saw a Chinese man among these reporters who looked sanctimonious but had a lewd smile on his lips.
After seeing this Chinese man, how could he not understand who was the mastermind behind all this?
His expression suddenly turned somewhat gloomy.
But……
Yet, I felt a sense of powerlessness.
It is naturally impossible for Hollywood companies to admit to suppressing anyone, and it is naturally impossible for them to admit to banning anyone.
So someone always needs to take the blame.
Fortunately, Alan is the scapegoat, a handsome scapegoat.
and……
Everything was clearly done by Allen. If he doesn't take the blame, who will?
early morning.
The sun shines on this land.
The land is filled with warmth and heat.
Alan closed his eyes.
Sudden……
He was a little dazed.
At this moment, he deeply felt that Lu Yuan was like a bomb.
Others entered Hollywood by working their way up from the bottom, but he...
Direct bombing.
…
Midland.
After Andor returned to the company, he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
James' words kept echoing in his mind.
For the first time, he, who had always been very confident, felt an indescribable sense of confusion about the future.
Yes, a feeling of confusion.
He originally thought that the superhero universe should be his latest idea. The success of "King Kong" really gave him too many inspirations. He felt that this was a path he could take in the future, and it was a sunny road.
But……
One day, someone suddenly appears, not only walking the path you have walked, but also with clearer plans and contents than you...
These……
How would you feel?
Naturally, there is a creepy feeling.
He even suspected that Lu Yuan had infiltrated his mind and stolen all his thoughts.
"Mr. Andor, please resign and join us..."
James' words echoed in his mind again.
Previously, James had invited Andorra to join "Remote".
At that time Andorra refused.
Reject without hesitation.
Because he felt that "Yuan Cheng" was not welcome in Hollywood. After all, no one was willing to share a piece of the pie with you, so "Yuan Cheng" must have a hard time in Hollywood, even though Lu Yuan had such a great reputation in China and such a great influence internationally.
If you want to get Hollywood's recognition, you have a long way to go "remotely".
Moreover, this road is not easy and basically ends in failure.
This is basically what everyone thinks.
but……
Lu Yuan's approach is not to endure hardship, nor does he ever bow to Hollywood.
But choose to force it!
Whether it is the theaters or the media, they all seem to be saying one thing, that is, he will never give in to Hollywood!
Then……
Saw was born!
Saw is a movie that changed the “remote” status. Before Saw, perhaps no one had ever thought highly of Lu Yuan, but after Saw…
Everything is different now.
Moreover, in just less than a year, he completed such an amazing transformation.
This moment.
Andorra took a deep breath.
After a sleepless night, Andorra saw another piece of news.
That is, all major cinema chains reached a cooperative relationship with Lu Yuan last night, and the two sides established a bridge of friendship. In addition, "Saw" will be broadcast simultaneously at noon the next day, and the male lead will be present in person to interact...
Has an agreement been reached?
When Andor saw this message, he knew that Lu Yuan had succeeded.
What is a “cinema chain”?
The purpose of cinemas is to make money!
After seeing the huge market potential of "Saw", which is even not less than that of "King Kong", they naturally would not go against money.
Andorra didn't know what happened that night, but he felt that Lu Yuan should be drinking red wine and celebrating his success at this moment...
Andorra spent the day of June 17th in a trance.
Seeing a series of proposals for the superhero universe, I didn't have any other desires or ideas in my heart...
It even feels a little ridiculous.
By the evening, he kept a close eye on the news about "Saw", waiting anxiously for the box office results.
Time goes by slowly.
It's so slow that it makes people speechless.
Just at eleven o'clock in the evening, Andor received a call from James.
James went out drinking in Andorra.
After arriving at the bar that they were both familiar with, James looked at Andorra with a bright smile on his face, just like a child.
"Mr. Andorra... today is a very special day..."
"What day?"
"Mr. Andor, which American horror movie has the best single-day box office record?"
"'Spirit', eight million dollars a day..." Andor watched James' smile getting deeper and deeper, and finally said this number after a moment of silence.
“Mr. Andor, we have just broken the $8 million box office record! From now on, "The Spirit" can only become history, or in other words, a milestone that has been surpassed.” James smiled deeply, and after drinking a glass of red wine, his face gradually brightened.
"Congratulations, Mr. James. But is this what you asked me out tonight to tell me?" Andorra had a complicated expression.
Horror movies are not science fiction movies, nor are they anything else.
Horror films are a niche genre whether in China, the United States, or even other countries.
If we can really break the record of "Spirit", then we can be proud of it.
but……
James is a well-known director in Hollywood.
He certainly won't be satisfied with this.
"No... First, we are old friends. Second, let me say the same thing. We have never succeeded before. Now, we see the hope of success. I once again sincerely invite you to join our group. Resign. We pursue freedom and dreams. If possible, we... can even be omnipotent and create a horror movie universe or a superhero universe..." James looked at Andor.
The same expression as before.
However, the voice sounded more heroic and confident than before.
This kind of confidence is hard to resist.
“……”Andorra suddenly fell silent.
There was noise and madness on the stage of the dim bar.
Several girls in revealing clothes were dancing...
Andorra withdrew his gaze and looked out the window.
He admitted that he was indeed a little moved at this moment.
The sound of Andorra is indeed very alluring, and at the same time, it is indeed full of yearning.
But, he finally shook his head.
"Sorry... not yet..."
Two hours later, Andorra left the bar and got on the car to go home.
He was drunk and dizzy.
When he was about to get off the car, he received a call from his assistant Jones.
"Mr. Andor..."
"What's wrong?"
"Saw breaks the record for horror movies!"
“How much is the box office?”
"That day, the box office was $9 million!"
"What, nine million dollars?"
"right!"
“…”
Andor hung up the phone.
He didn't know what to say for a moment.
Anyway, tonight...
He should suffer from insomnia again.
…
"What!"
"Oh my God!"
"Is this movie actually, actually so scary? It actually broke the record for horror movies?"
“Oh my god, is this going to be the age of horror movies?”
"like……"
"Yes!"
"I don't understand why this movie can break the record. I went to the cinema to see it. Although this movie is great, it shouldn't be so crazy, right? You know, this is a movie with not much investment..."
"That Chinese guy, has he succeeded again?"
"Aren't you talking nonsense? Judging from the popularity and ratings, he has already had signs of success. Why are you so surprised?"
“…”
When the box office of "Saw" was officially announced in major media and websites, the entire American film industry went crazy.
They all knew that Saw couldn’t do badly at the box office!
but……
They never imagined that the box office of "Saw" would reach such a horrific level.
This is already...
Created new history and records!
The Ghost, which has held the horror film box office record for nearly three years, holds the...
today……
Officially announced to be broken!
Horror movie, Chinese, Lu Yuan, murder, chainsaw...
This series of words instantly became hot search terms and flooded the browsers.
And the person who broke this record was not an American, but a Chinese!
This leaves American movie fans with a slightly mixed feeling.
Feel……
Very uncomfortable.
…
China.
"Shock! Saw breaks the record of Hollywood horror movies and is officially crowned the king!"
"This is a movie that was unknown a few months ago, but a few months later, this movie turned out to be..."
"China's counterattack. In the past, Hollywood blockbusters always impacted Chinese films, but now... we Chinese people also have good movies!"
"Has the Chinese film industry officially begun to rise?"
"Lu Yuan, bring glory to the country!"
“…”
Chinese media.
After seeing "Saw" break the record, I went crazy instantly!
All major media outlets vied to report on the various situations and difficulties that happened to Lu Yuan in Hollywood.
That night, many people couldn't sleep all night...
after all……
Everyone has been waiting for this moment for too long!
Every year, a group of directors say that this is the year their movies will fight back against Hollywood.
Every year is the most hopeful year.
but……
Many hopes are unwarranted. Many highly hyped movies have all been shattered after Hollywood movies officially landed in China...
Suppressed, attacked...
Every year, the top three movie box office rankings are all Hollywood movies.
disappointment……
Yes!
This moment is very disappointing!
But this year is really different.
When Hollywood movies were wreaking havoc on the Chinese film industry and the Chinese film industry was powerless to fight back, Lu Yuan took the lead in entering Hollywood and broke the record of Hollywood movies!
This is undoubtedly exciting!
However, the discordant voice sounded again.
"Bullshit! Er Gouzi is not the director of this movie. Er Gouzi is just the screenwriter and he has not participated in the filming, okay?"
"Yeah... the actors and director in Saw are all Americans, all from Hollywood, so this movie is also a Hollywood movie! What are you so happy about!"
"Yeah, what are you so proud of?"
“…”
Many discordant voices began to emerge in the Chinese film industry, like a wave of cold water, extinguishing everyone's excitement.
yes……
"Saw" is a Hollywood movie.
It's never a Chinese movie.
Chinese films are still being ravaged by Hollywood in China, and still...
In a trembling state!
Just when everyone's enthusiasm had died down, suddenly, a comment caused a stir again!
"Yes! The director and actors of Saw are all from Hollywood, but they are all from 'remote' entertainment!"
"James is amazing, but... he has already joined Remote Entertainment and become a director under Remote Entertainment!"
"And the American 'Remote' Entertainment is actually a branch of the Chinese 'Remote' Entertainment!"
"So... do you understand?"
After seeing this comment...
The netizens who were originally a little disappointed suddenly became excited again!
"Fuck..."
“Oh my god!”
"Fuck! Er Gouzi is awesome!"
"Oh my god, this... it suddenly occurred to me... this... it suddenly occurred to me that maybe, 'remote' entertainment is beginning to invade Hollywood?"
“It’s so scary!”
“…”
This frenzy did not last long.
Then came another series of crazy news.
"Taiwan's 'remote' entertainment is officially established!"
"'Remote' Entertainment has reached a cooperation with R... "
"'Remote' Entertainment has its own comic book company, Naruto. The first chapter of 'Bleach' has been serialized in Japan's 'Weekly Shonen'... The manga script was conceived by Lu Yuan!"
“…”
One piece of news after another bombarded the Chinese entertainment industry!
This moment...
The Chinese entertainment industry has completely exploded!
