Chapter 1206

The domestic Spring Festival files came to an end, and "Prison in the Sky" took the top spot. Fan Wencheng became the king of the Spring Festival files this year. The Spring Festival files received 7 billion in 16 days, which is extremely terrifying.

Yang Hao's "Speed" followed closely, and also scored 12 billion at the box office.

Qin Gang's "The Hangover" was boycotted by many female audiences. As a result, the box office continued to be weak. Although the Spring Festival stalls also received 10 billion yuan in seven days, compared with the previous two, Qin Gang is undoubtedly a loser.

It can be said that Qin Gang was slapped badly in the face, but this time, although Qin Gang was a loser in the country, he was blooming inside the wall and outside the wall. No one thought that "The Hangover" could actually win the weekly box office champion in North America.

Drive high and go high, within a week, it was announced that "The Hangover" had a North American box office of over [-] million.But "Prison in the Air" seems a bit embarrassing at this point. Although "Prison in the Sky" performed very well, with a box office of over [-] million in the same week, the box office trend was much worse than that of "The Hangover", and the box office dropped significantly. , on the contrary, the box office trend of "The Hangover" is very healthy, and the key point is that the word-of-mouth of both films is good, but "Prison in the Air" is after all a popcorn blockbuster of the Hollywood model, while "The Hangover" is given to Overseas audiences brought more surprises.

However, no matter what, the two blockbuster movies from Huaguo have both exceeded [-] million at the overseas box office, which still shocked many people.

Yang Hao is the most bitter, because "Speed" has not been officially released in North America. Although "Speed" surpassed "The Hangover" in China and got the second place in the Spring Festival, but overseas, Yang Hao can only stare blankly. .

With Yang Hao's status in China, "Life and Death" can naturally affect its release time, schedule, and publicity, but abroad?
Yang Hao is really not well-known, and probably only people of Lin Xiao's level can get some right to speak in North America. Movies have proven their worth.

Businessmen seek profits, and capitalists also seek profits. The value of Lin Xiao's movies lies there, no matter which company it is, it cannot be ignored.

Although Yang Hao is definitely the number one director in China, even in Southeast Asia, or the entire Asian region, Yang Hao's reputation is at the height of the sky.

But it is a pity that Yang Hao really has nothing to sell in the western world.

It's like those domestic stars, they have reached the top in China, but if they want to step into a new class, they need to go abroad, but who do foreign people know who you are?
For Chinese people, maybe for many foreigners, they have face blindness. Similarly, foreign audiences are actually dumbfounded by Chinese stars.

Unless you can have something special, leave a special impression on the other party.

And Laomei has always acted like the world's policeman, so that the people of Laomei also think that they have nothing to do with themselves. They usually only pay attention to their own domestic affairs. For foreign countries, especially non-English-speaking regions, to be honest, North America The audience really doesn't care too much.

In fact, it is the same, although it seems that many people in China are advocating Hollywood movies, but in fact, Huaguo is the country of the yellow race and the descendants of Yan and Huang. Therefore, xenophobia is actually inevitable, such as the term "foreigner", such as Strictly speaking, foreign devils, etc., are considered discriminatory words, but in China they are normal words.

The so-called non-my race must have a different heart, this kind of thinking can be said to be deeply rooted.

After both "The Hangover" and "Prison in the Sky" achieved great success in North America, the remaining "Speed" Mina Group also paid more attention to it than before.

After all, although the themes of these three films are different, the screenwriters are all Lin Xiao, and they are all films invested by Ling Xiaoge. The key point is that two of the three films have succeeded, so there is a great possibility of success again .

And for the Mina Group, people who have watched "Speed" are optimistic about this film, because the biggest feature of this film is that the pace is quite fast, and it can be said to be a very typical fast-paced film.

Even if this kind of movie is from China, even if the movie has an all-Chinese cast, there will definitely be a lot of audiences who like this kind of movie.

Of course, just to be on the safe side, "Speed" uses the same method as "The Hangover" to conduct a small-scale screening first, and then watch the expanded screening of the results of the screening.

After all, "Prison in the Air" is considered a medium-cost production, and Fan Wencheng's "Dangerous Couple" has achieved good results in North America, so Fan Wencheng is no longer a new director in the North American market, but Yang Hao is still a new director in North America. The audience is not familiar with him, and the theaters are not familiar with him, so it is impossible to expect a large-scale release directly.

So the way of screening has become the first choice for this movie.

The screening scale of "Speed" is much larger than that of "The Hangover". From the beginning, Mina Group arranged 200 screens for "Speed" for small-scale screenings, and also held a special screening for "Speed" Screenings for film critics.

Maybe film critics will not like comedies like "The Hangover" or Hollywood-style popcorn movies like "Prison in the Air", but Mina believes that film critics will like "Speed" Editing techniques, and a dizzyingly fast pace.

Several "Speed ​​​​of Life and Death" did not disappoint.After the special screening by film critics, it received wide acclaim.

"A movie from China, "The Speed ​​of Life and Death" is as its name suggests. The director used sharp editing techniques to make this movie with an ordinary plot rise several grades in an instant. You can't even watch the movie. Go away." - L.A. Entertainment News

""Speed" is not a racing movie, but the level of excitement is no less than that of a racing movie. The speed of 50KM/H is a choice between life and death." - Film critic Alan Delores.

"When a film can make the audience forget everything and immerse themselves in it, then it is successful. "Speed" is undoubtedly such a film, but it does not rely on the plot, but the editing, which makes you You can't bear to walk away, or rather, this is a movie that uses speed so that you can't think too much." - Film critic Steven Berg.

""Speed" is a movie that makes you forget everything and just immerse yourself in it without thinking about other things. It deserves a thumbs up!" - Roger Castor.

"Speed" is a commercial film, there is no doubt about it, but the biggest feature of this film is that it does not leave much time for the audience to breathe, the whole process is high-energy, and the plot will appear as soon as you relax Huge turning point, crisis will strike!
To be honest, it cannot be said that there are no movies of this style on the market, but there are really few, very few.
