Chapter 941 The Most Grossing Movie in Chinese Film History

"Who is this guy?"

In the driving car, Scarlett Johansson couldn't help wearing a bit of sullenness on her pretty face after listening to the translation from Tina Fey on the co-pilot, "Is our film not in competition with him? Why does he stand Come out and say that?"

The object of her questioning was naturally Duke. Duke patted Scarlett's hand lightly and said, "I know a little about the film circle here. This director always likes to criticize some people or films, so he was People gave it the nickname 'Cannon'."

"'cannon'?"

Since Duke used the literal translation in English, Scarlett could also understand the meaning of the word. After thinking about it, she couldn't help smiling, "It's a very appropriate description."

Duke still knows what kind of person Feng Dapao is. Every time he fires a cannon, he has his own purpose. Most people know that Feng Dapao is a very good commercial director, but few know that he is also a hype good hand.

The most typical one is quitting the film industry and being a director. How many times Feng Dapao has said it, I am afraid that even he himself does not know. In these years, almost all of Feng Dapao's movies are released, and he will always say that he is going to retire... …

Of course, Duke wouldn't care about Feng Dapao's use of his movie for hype. After all, it's not without benefits for the other party to shoot. It can be created by Warner Greater China to a certain extent.

The Mercedes-Benz RV gradually slowed down and stopped slowly at the entrance of the Crowne Plaza Hotel. After the door was opened by the doorman, Duke's two bodyguards rushed over from the car behind, and while taking their luggage, they also According to Western practice, a certain amount of tip is given to the doorman.

Looking up at the square characters above, Scarlett Johansson couldn't help but sigh, "Such a not-so-famous Chinese city is so congested."

As soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't help coughing a few times, pinched her nose unconsciously, and frowned tightly.

Duke turned his head and looked at the gray sky. Naturally, he would not forget this city famous for its spring water. The air in the city had an indescribable smell.If you look up, you always feel that something is blocking the sky.

He remembered very clearly that during the same period of time when he lived in this city, the air pollution index of this city was ranked among the bottom three almost every time.

Originally, Duke left the crew and brought Scarlett Johansson to this city, also wanting to see what his hometown looks like.It's just that the air quality is so bad today that it's obviously not suitable for going out.

"Temporarily cancel the original tour plan..."

In the presidential suite, Duke said to Tina Fey and Scarlett Johansson who were packing their luggage, "Let's see if the air condition will improve tomorrow."

Maybe it's because I have been unaccustomed to the climate since I came to China, or maybe I was really stimulated by the air.After Scarlett went upstairs, she coughed lightly from time to time.

"Cough...cough..."

Clenching her fist and coughing twice, Scarlett Johansson hung Duke's coat on the hanger and said. "I can't even figure out why you're here."

Tina Fey also looked at Duke curiously.She has followed Duke to China far more times than Scarlett Johansson, but she has never seen Duke become interested in such a city.

Of course Duke wouldn't say the real reason, but just shook his head slightly, "You won't understand."

Scarlett Johansson came over.Pulled up Duke and sat on the couch, "You also like to play mysticism anytime soon."

"I read a brochure for this city in Shanghai a few days ago..."

Seeing Scarlett looking at him with doubts, Duke replied casually, "Then I come to this city to play in my dreams."

"Is this the reason?" Scarlett shook her head. She knew what kind of person Duke was, so she didn't believe it at all. "Will you be swayed by dreams?"

At this time, Tina Fey finished packing her things, walked towards the study, and said at the same time, "I'm going to work."

Duke nodded. After coming to China, his workload has not decreased. In particular, many cooperations between Lucasfilm and China need to be reviewed, and these are basically done by Tina Fey. After processing, it will be collected in his hands in the end.

Scarlett handed over a glass of water, and after Duke took it and drank it, he walked to Tina Fey's tidy laptop and pressed the power button.

After getting another glass of water for Duke, Scarlett followed, "Still working?"

"Our publicity campaign against Mr. Big Cannon has already begun."

Picking up the mouse and clicking on the browser, Duke stared at the monitor screen and said, "I want to see how the Internet reacts here."

Some time ago, the main publicity point of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" in China was undoubtedly the super high box office in China, but such publicity cannot be maintained at a high level for a long time, and fresh and interesting topics are essential.

Many media are hyping Feng Dapao's remarks, but on social media, under the ingenious guidance of the public relations department of Warner Greater China, the opinions of Chinese movie fans and netizens show a one-sided trend.

That Feng Dapao believes that "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" is full of excitement, but not enough people.

"You showed me a lot of excitement. I'm not satisfied. I watched people's hearts. Whether it's a movie or a performance on stage, you need to have a heart."

This is what Feng Dapao said on Weibo later, and was bombarded by countless movie fans and netizens—yes, private order, I left before I finished watching it.

More and more sharp remarks appeared on the Internet, and there were voices criticizing Feng Dapao on social media.

"Let's not say whether Director Feng's opinion is pertinent or not, but judging from the level of domestic film production in China, there is indeed a long way to go before American Hollywood. Every country has different film styles, and there are almost no American Hollywood blockbusters Other countries can match it, but Chinese films are far behind in terms of technology, which can be caught up with hard work the day after tomorrow, but in terms of sincerity in making films, we should also learn from American blockbuster films.”

"Nowadays the phenomenon of Chinese movies being crudely produced and commercialized is very common, and they are criticized by domestic audiences. If you watch a bad movie once, you will be fooled, and if you watch it again, you will be really stupid. Supporting domestic production is indeed worth advocating, but ignorant support Domestic production will only spoil Chinese films, and it is precisely Chinese films that have disappointed audiences time and time again, and they still don’t know how to repent that one film is more utilitarian than the other, I’m afraid there will be fewer and fewer people willing to pay the bill in the future.”

In fact, in Duke’s view, Chinese films can develop in two directions. One is to form their own unique style and avoid following the trend and make the same thing. Make it feel like a blockbuster movie, don't use the banner of a blockbuster movie to make another four-faced movie, it will only lose the reputation of the entire Chinese movie.

Some Chinese netizens are quite sensible, and they are not wanton attacks for the purpose of wandering.

"Director Feng is sometimes confused and sometimes sober. Not long ago, he bombarded "Running Man" and other variety movies and received countless praises and support. Now he belittles "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" and attracts countless criticisms. Comment on a movie It's everyone's freedom, and Director Feng is no exception, it's just that 'poor students don't study well, and I blame the excellent students for studying too well'."

There are also fans who are not polite.

"Domestic directors don't live up to expectations. Now they see Duke Rosenberg making money, and they feel uncomfortable... But they don't want to think about it. The combined box office of all of them can compare with Duke Rosenberg. The amount of box office that Berg generated alone?"

Movies have never been sold well only if they are produced well enough. The excellent promotion and marketing of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" is undoubtedly the key to the current box office boom. Feng Dapao has also helped "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" in some ways Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

Following the box office of one billion RMB in three days, in the next ten days, "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" still couldn't find any rivals in the Chinese movie theater market, and it was completely dominated by one company.

However, it is impossible for "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" to continue to operate at an ultra-high temperature of one billion RMB for three days. That is also impossible. After the first three days of screenings, the popularity inevitably declined , but in these ten days, I also got a full billion RMB.

In thirteen days of its release, "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" soared to a box office figure of more than 20 billion RMB, surpassing the 19 billion RMB of Duke's other film "The Avengers" without any suspense. Achievements, become the highest-grossing film in Chinese film history!

Similarly, the Chinese market is also the market with the highest box office of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" outside of the North American market.

The title of the world's second largest box office market is well-deserved.

Although "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" is very popular all over the world, and the box office and peripheral products are selling wildly, Duke is not in a good mood because he only visited this city famous for its spring water for half a day. After a while, Scarlett Johansson felt obvious discomfort in her throat, and her cough gradually became more severe.

Although the doctor didn't think the problem was too serious, Duke decided to end this not-so-pleasant trip.

"I want to go back to Los Angeles."

The always gray sky here also put Scarlett in a bad mood, "I miss Malibu and our Duke's estate."

Now that "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" has been released in China for nearly half a month, it has won a box office of more than 20 billion RMB, which has exceeded the expectations of him and Lucasfilm. It doesn't do much here either.

"Okay, honey." Duke tapped her forehead lightly, "Let's go home."

The past is the past after all, and Duke is not the kind of person who dwells on the past. This kind of problem has been figured out decades ago. (to be continued~^~)
