Chapter 429: The Twin Stars' Voice Shocks the World

On July 8, after more than a month of all-round promotion, "Take Her Eyes" held its world premiere at Beijing Golden Harvest Cinema.

Most of the Chinese film industry gathered together, and the grand premiere gave the film a good start.

"Take Her Eyes" did not disappoint the expectations of Chinese filmmakers and audiences. Ning Hao's team spent nearly two and a half hours shocking and moving the guest reporters and lucky audiences present.

The midnight box office was 13.2 million yuan, breaking the 11.7 million domestic midnight box office record of "Gravity" that had been maintained for four years.

The reputation was excellent, and nearly 100,000 netizens gave comments on Douban that night, and the score exceeded nine points.

Tens of thousands of comments and messages filled the message board of "Take Her Eyes" densely.

"Chuhe Film and Television has once again led the Chinese film industry. I was shocked and moved, and I am proud of Chinese filmmakers!"

"The movie is great, not only because of the grand and gorgeous special effects scenes, but the whole movie is touching. Zeng Li's role as Shen Jing is so outstanding. The beauty of the soul is always more touching than the skin!"

"Although I know the whole plot and the ending, I still can't hold back my tears. This is an atypical science fiction blockbuster. Ning Hao made the movie very beautiful, like a prose poem!"

"Sunset Six is ​​so sci-fi and cool. When the whole world is filming space, we are filming the center of the earth. The subject matter is very attractive, and the global box office of the movie will definitely not be low!"

…

After only one night, everyone confirmed a result:

The domestic 3D science fiction blockbuster has fired the first shot!

In the first three days of the weekend, the proportion of "Take Her Eyes" in major theaters across the country was more than 60%. In just three days, the domestic box office exceeded the 500 million mark.

It broke all the first-week box office records that can be broken.

The overseas box office is also quite gratifying. Shanhe's name appeal played a certain role. Under the pressure of "Pacific Rim" and "Logan 2", "Take Her Eyes" ranked third in the North American box office in the first weekend.

The first weekend box office of 34 million US dollars greatly exceeded the expectations of Disney and Chuhe Film and Television.

The reputation of the film in North America is somewhat polarized. Those who like it are extremely impressed, and those who don't like it sneer.

This is normal. "Take Her Eyes" is an authentic Chinese-language film that cannot be more authentic. The plot rhythm and cultural philosophy are pure oriental logic.

Naturally, it does not meet the tastes of some Western audiences!

The situation in European countries is roughly the same as in North America. The cultural gap between the East and the West is even more obvious, but the box office is higher than that in North America, with 38 million US dollars in the first week!

The reason lies in the proportion of screenings. For European theaters, "Take Her Eyes" is not much different from "Pacific Rim" and "Logan 2". They are all foreign films.

In addition, with Shanhe's popularity, "Take Her Eyes" was not suppressed too much in the screening.

In Asian countries, "Take Her Eyes" has made a comeback and has landed at the top of the weekly box office rankings, suppressing Hollywood blockbusters "Pacific Rim" and "Logan 2".

Even Japan and South Korea are no exception!

The audience's reputation is quite good, and the box office revenue in Asian countries that week exceeded 35 million US dollars.

"Take Her Eyes" grossed more than 200 million US dollars worldwide in the first weekend.

It greatly exceeded the internal expectations of Chuhe Film and Television, and the entire Chuhe Film and Television was jubilant.

Douban.com was the first to announce the news and gave a professional forecast:

"Take Her Eyes" domestic box office exceeded 2 billion yuan and global box office exceeded 600 million US dollars.

As soon as the news came out, the domestic media was boiling, Ning Hao was praised as a god. After Shanhe, another Chinese commercial director with global influence was born!

Chinese-language films were once again filled with fuel, and the film market fell into a frenzy.

At the same time, the extremely excited Ning Hao set up a table at home and celebrated the victory with several old partners of Chuhe Film and Television.

Ning Hao raised his glass to express his gratitude as soon as the table opened.

"Let me toast to everyone. It took more than three years to make "Take Her Eyes". To be honest, I thought about giving up several times. Forget it. It would be great to make some road comedy. It's not just about making money, but also relaxing and less stressful!

It's not just my credit that I was able to persevere in the end. In addition to the crew, everyone here has given us great support. Let me toast first!"

Shanhe watched Ning Hao raise his head and drink the wine in the glass in one gulp, and smiled and continued:

"Old Ning, if you are so hypocritical, you will... There are not enough cups. At least one cup per person is allowed. You need three cups for me. You told me how much publicity you got me to do for you!"

"That's right. One cup is not enough!"

"Haha... Shanhe is right. Ning Hao, you need to have a round first!"

"You two can have a drink together!"

"Hehe..."

...

"Don't! You know how much Aina and I can drink. We are not Baoqiang and Ma Li. If you keep doing this, I will fall down in ten minutes! I will drink three cups, okay?"

"Let's drink first!"

"It's okay to take your time. You still have to drink!"

…

After a few rounds of laughter, everyone started chatting about "Take Her Eyes".

…

"Lao Ning, where is your big gold chain? Without it, you lose half of your charm!"

"Haha..."

"I locked it in the safe. I don't need it anymore!"

Ning Hao replied with a blushing face,

"I wanted to put some pressure on myself before, but in the past two years, the pressure has almost crushed us. The gold chain is too light and has no meaning!"

"Lao Ning is right!"

Xing Aina also sighed,

"400 million yuan of production investment, Lao Ning's movies didn't make that much in the past. This movie represents too many things. If the movie fails, we don't know how to explain it to everyone!"

"You think too much! I said "Take Her Eyes" won't lose money!"

Zhong Lifang's style as a strong woman Full of style,

"Lao Ning's level is there, the domestic box office appeal is enough, the current domestic market alone can support the production cost of the film, and the distribution capabilities of our Chuhe Film and Television in Asian countries are not much worse than Hollywood movies. Even without the European and American box office, "Take Her Eyes" can easily break even!"

Yang Liu swallowed the food in his mouth and smiled and said:

"You underestimate the distribution capabilities of Chuhe Film and Television. I'm not bragging. In Asia, we rank second and no one dares to rank first. How about it, Lao Ning, "Take Her Eyes" has been successfully released. Do you have any ideas for the next work?"

"Don't compare me with Shanhe, that's unfair to me!"

Ning Hao shook his head repeatedly when he heard it,

"His kind of talent that comes at his fingertips is unimaginable for most people, and I don't have him. With such a strong ability to withstand pressure, he needs at least half a year to recover! "

"Half a year is enough for Shanhe to finish filming his "Room"!"

"Ah? Shanhe, have you started preparing for a new film?"

"Yes, I'm already training young actors, and it's expected to start filming next month. The scenes and characters in "Room" are very simple, and it's estimated that they will be finished within this year!"

"Are you still human? You won't be tired, "Youth Yi" hasn't been released yet! It's really abnormal!"

"Go to hell!"

Xu Ke took a sip of white wine and said with a sigh:

"I really envy you! You are young and in your prime, and you can try any type of film. I am old and don't have the energy to experiment and study, so the subject matter is fixed on fantasy martial arts!"

"Brother Xu, when you say this, I have to dig a hole and bury myself in the soil! ”

Wu Ershan shook his head and said self-deprecatingly,

“Since “Blades of Smiles”, I have been stuck in the fantasy martial arts pit and I guess it will be difficult to climb out in the future!”

“Isn’t there still a fairy-tale theme, Wu Ershan, “Investiture of the Gods” can start brewing, and Qicai Guangling is preparing to release “Nezha 1” during the Spring Festival of 2015!”

Shanhe responded to Wu Ershan with a smile, and clinked his glasses with Xu Ke again,

“Brother Xu, how about I recommend you a web novel?”

“You say!”

““Shushan” is your biggest regret, how about using “Zhu Xian” to get back on track?”

“Zhu Xian”? This name sounds familiar, I seem to have heard of it somewhere!”

Yang Liu reminded,

“Can Pupa has been talking about this novel in the company all day long, he always wants to make this book into a web drama!”

“I’ll go to Zhiyong to ask tomorrow! ”

…

A private banquet of Chuhe Film and Television has spawned a project. The theme of Xianxia is the traditional science fiction of China. "Zhu Xian" will be a good breakthrough point.

Shanhe believes that Chuhe Film and Television will not waste this popular IP like iQiyi in its previous life!

Throughout July, "Take Her Eyes" dominated the domestic box office market. In three weeks, the film's box office in China exceeded 1.6 billion yuan.

Zhou Xingchi's "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" ranked second in the domestic box office rankings, but was driven down to third place before it could even sit still.

The North American box office barely broke 70 million US dollars in three weeks, and European countries were slightly stronger, totaling 80 million US dollars!

Europe The cumulative revenue in the United States has reached 150 million US dollars, which is a very good number. Chuhe Films has made a very successful first step in exporting to Europe and the United States.

However, this should be the final box office in the two places. Cultural differences between the East and the West are inevitable. The market needs to be cultivated, and Western audiences need time to adapt to the rhythm and rise of China!

The situation in Asian countries is completely different. "Take Her Eyes" has a very good reputation in Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia!

Countless Asian audiences were shocked by "Sunset Six" and shed tears for the brilliance of the navigator Shen Jing's humanity!

The Japanese media even commented on "Take Her Eyes" as "Every young Japanese should watch this movie":

"It's too easy to get things in this world. Everyone can easily get too many things from their surroundings. The young generation of Japan should know how to cherish, just like Shen Jing in the movie. Only by cherishing can we appreciate the beauty of the world and take responsibility for this beauty!"

The Korean media used "the most beautiful oriental goddess" to describe the role of Shen Jing and the actress Zeng Li who played her:

"Beauty is not about posing on the stage, nor is it about showing off sexiness with long legs. Beauty is an inner exposure, a natural manifestation from the inside out. Should the Republic of China reflect on our aesthetic standards..."

In Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia, Shen Jing played by Zeng Li conquered all Chinese people. Zeng Li was even evaluated as "the perfect standard of oriental beauty"!

In three weeks, Asian countries contributed more than 100 million US dollars in box office revenue to "Take Her Eyes".

In summary, the global cumulative box office of "Take Her Eyes" exceeded 500 million US dollars in three weeks!

Strongly entered the global movie box office rankings this year, ranking fifth after "Crazy Croods"!

The entire Chinese film industry was shocked by the news and almost all media were reporting this amazing news.

Ning Hao's fame was so great that he became the most powerful figure in the Chinese film industry!

What made Shanhe laugh and cry was that everyone seemed to exclude him from the comparison.

"Don't compare Shanhe. What he did was not normal!"

"That's right. This kind of pervert is rare even in online literature!"

"Nuclear weapons like Shanhe are used to deal with foreigners. We can just keep them in China. It's a waste to use them. We should have more conventional weapons like Ning Hao!"

"That's very reasonable. Shanhe must be treated separately!"

...

Okay, you can arrange it as you like!

Shanhe and Hathaway had almost completed the preparatory work for "Room" in July.

The storyboard script and shooting plan have been basically finalized. It is not difficult to build the studio for "Room".

A dozen square meters of underground space is just a matter of ten days for Chuhe Film and Television.

The location and other actors Bruckheimer have been arranged properly.

Most of the training for the young actor Jacob Tremblay was done by Hathaway.

This child does have extraordinary acting skills. Although he cannot fully understand the situation of the character Tate, he can always find similar situations to bring into play.

Hathaway often marvels at Shanhe. This child is the most talented acting genius she has ever seen, even Tang Xiaoyu can't compare!

In a month, Jacob Tremblay has basically become familiar with the role of Tate, and the cooperation and tacit understanding between the two have increased day by day.

When they get along with each other in daily life, they all take the role as the standard, and "Mom" and "Tate" have become the names they call each other.

Of course, the training is not smooth. The biggest troublemaker is the little bear Qiu Yanche. The two-and-a-half-week-old kid has all the mischief skills and is full of energy, which is a headache.

Apart from sleeping and eating, he was always looking for troubles. The chickens and ducks in the yard were very troubled by him. They hid everywhere when they saw him. If it weren't for Doudou and a few old people, the little brat would have been beaten up by a group of chickens and ducks!

Shanhe was often helpless because of his son. This kid was not afraid of him as a father. Even if Shanhe frowned, he didn't care!

The little bear who was looking for troubles would naturally not let Jacob go. Every time he heard Jacob call Hathaway "Mom", he would run over and seriously correct him.

"Duck, this is my mom, not your mom!"

His serious look always made people laugh!

It was okay when Hathaway was there. The brat was not afraid of his father, but was very afraid of his mother. As long as Hathaway's face was frowned, he would turn around and find other fun.

If Hathaway is not around, he will have more tricks, pestering little Jacob to play everywhere,

"Duck, go catch Duck!"

"Duck, go see the chickens!"

"Duck, take me out!"

…

The two children actually had a good time. In more than a month, the little bear's English has improved a lot!

The preparations for the movie "Room" are progressing smoothly, and the release of the novel is also in full swing.

Scholar Press completed the finalization of all versions of the novel in early July.

Printing and publicity are in progress simultaneously, and Shanhe's new work is the best promotional slogan.

With the cooperation of Scholar Press and Disney, the novel "Room" and the upcoming movie adaptation have long been known to the world and are highly anticipated!

In the first two weeks of August, "Take Her Eyes" is still rampant in the domestic film market, and the release of Hollywood blockbusters "Pacific Rim" and "Logan 2" did not bring much pressure to the film.

As long as the quality of domestic science fiction is up to standard, the advantages in China are not something that Hollywood movies can compete with.

"Take Her Eyes" broke the 2 billion RMB box office threshold as expected, and the only one ahead of it is Shanhe's "Gravity"!

Can "Take Her Eyes" break the domestic box office ceiling of 2.3 billion yuan?

This topic has become the focus of the domestic entertainment gossip circle.

Four years ago, "Gravity" came roaring, sweeping up a box office hurricane with overwhelming momentum.

At that time, everyone thought that this box office record would not be broken within ten years, but only four years later, this record is in jeopardy.

"Take Her Eyes" is very likely to rewrite this record, but it is estimated that it will not last long!

Because Shanhe's perverted "Youth Yi" is coming, this movie with an investment of more than 200 million US dollars and the blessing of the original book is bound to set off a box office frenzy again!

Breaking the record is really not a difficult task for Shanhe!

The potential of the Chinese film market has surprised everyone!

The double combo of Ning Hao and Shanhe even gave the public an illusion that Chinese-language films seem to be fighting against Hollywood!
