Chapter 1137 Chasing Paramount
On the afternoon of the same day, Paramount's official website announced that "McGee Bear" will be released normally in Europe and the United States, and other regions will be postponed for a week.
Just an hour later, Marvel also issued a statement, delaying the premiere of "The Lord of the Rings 2" in other regions by the same week.
Hollywood was in an uproar.
"Damn it, is this a joke?"
"Kung Fu Xiao is deliberately trying to find fault with Paramount. Haha, it's a good show again."
"Paramount and Marvel are dead enemies. Xiao has too much character."
"Do you think Paramount will change the show date again?"
"Certainly not. If it really does, Paramount will have no face in Hollywood."
Marvel's actions almost made Ricky Franklin pissed off.
"It's too much, Xiao is really too much." Franklin scolded.
If you can't escape, you can only fight.
Franklin changed the time again, claiming that it was a mistake by the staff of the publicity department, and Marvel also changed it, even for the same reason.
The two companies are completely at odds with each other.
On January 28, the 3D movie "Dr. Mutation" was released worldwide. The ticket price in Europe and the United States was 60 US dollars, and the average price in other regions was about 40 US dollars. It won 438 million US dollars in three premiere nights.
To know,
"Dr. Mutation" is different from "2012". There are 16,000 screens around the world showing at the same time. Although the ticket price is much lower than that of "2012", it is small in profits and quick in sales, and its premiere night box office is still much higher than "2012". 2012".
However, everyone's evaluation of it is not high, with an average of about 7.5 points.
After all, it's just a commercial film with a 3D brand. It relies on visual effects and has no artistic flavor. It is very good to get a score of 7.5.
On January 29, the box office of "Dr. Mutation" reached 1.123 billion, making it the box office champion of the day without any suspense.
Next is the weekend, "Dr. Mutation" ushered in a big explosion, and received 1.572 billion and 1.728 billion US dollars respectively.
In just three days, the total box office of "Dr. Mutation" reached 4.861 billion US dollars, and there is no problem in breaking 10 billion.
And "McGee Bear" only won 158 million on the premiere night, and on January 31, it won 248 million US dollars at the box office, and the loss was a mess.
Xiao Yunhai's goal of making Marvel movies top the top ten in the global box office is half complete.
Xiao Yunhai knew very well that since "Dr. Mutation" could achieve such a result, then the other three films would definitely not have any problems.
In this way, from the first place to the fifth place will be Xiao Yunhai's bag. At that time, it is estimated that the whole world of film industry will go crazy.
Time flies, and on February 9th, "Dr. Mutation" won $9.256 billion, ranking as the box office champion for 12 consecutive days.
However, this movie has also reached the end of its streak. Since February 10, the box office has been swaying around 200 million US dollars, and the screen has dropped from 16,000 yuan at the beginning to 7,000 yuan. Even Xiao Yunhai rented it himself. Cinemas are no longer showing.
This situation continued for a whole week, and then the potential was exhausted, and it completely collapsed, but the box office has already won 11.3 billion US dollars.
The poor "Maggie Bear" only got 987 million US dollars, even if the next network download fee is added, it is estimated that it is not enough for their shooting cost.
During the screening of "Dr. Mutation", "Captain America" was completed in the later stage, and according to the time, it happened to be the successor to "Dr. Mutant".
However, Xiao Yunhai didn't do this, but still chose a blockbuster sniping from Paramount. Anyway, he won't lose, and whoever is afraid of whoever is.
This made Paramount CEO Ricky Franklin very distressed, but helpless.
The filming of "The Grandmaster" went very smoothly. On February 16, which is the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, the film was finally completed.
Xiao Yunhai returned to Yanjing with Zhao Wanqing before even finishing the press conference.
For more than a month, Xiao Yunhai was going crazy thinking about his child.
When Zhao Wanqing didn't have a role, she could go back for two days, but he was the director, and the crew couldn't live without him at all times.
No way, Xiao Yunhai sometimes can only watch the video shot by Zhao Wanqing with his mobile phone.
After returning home, Xiao Yunhai immediately ran to his parents, looking at the two already grown babies, a feeling of love spontaneously emerged.
Xiao Changfeng said with a smile: "Yunhai, now you can't see the children outside, are you particularly worried?"
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "That's right. I've never felt this way since I was a child. Dad, Mom, have you been exhausted these days?"
Chen Xiuzhu said: "No way. We are four old people looking after the children, plus a nanny, it's much easier than taking care of you and Ling'er. By the way, there is good news I haven't told you yet. Yesterday, Ocean Ocean gave You brought a red book, saying that you were elected as the representative of Chinese literature, art and business. After the New Year, you need to take it to the government hall to attend a meeting and participate in government affairs with the leaders. Son, you are really amazing now. "
In this world, the representatives who can participate in the government work conference after the year are leaders from all walks of life, and the corresponding audits are also very strict. Whether it is his behavior or his achievements, he must meet the standard.
It was absolutely unprecedented that Xiao Yunhai could become one of them at the age of twenty-six.
Xiao Yunhai learned about it from Xiao Yuanyang yesterday, and said with a smile, "To be honest, I'm really not very interested in what this means. Why don't you give me more time to spend with the children."
Xiao Changfeng said: "This is an honor. In fact, you passed the audit last year, but the old man thinks that you are too young to participate in it too early, which is not good."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "What's going on this year? The old man doesn't seem to be able to withstand the pressure."
Xiao Changfeng said angrily: "How can you top it? Your "2012" sold more than 22 billion US dollars, ranking first in the world box office chart. Not to mention China, even in the world, no one can match you. Than. If you can't become a representative of literature and art, what do you ask others to do. Also, you are now worth more than 600 billion US dollars, you are the richest man in the world, and your business achievements are unprecedented. In addition to the more than 20 billion US dollars Do you think the government can't invite you to the conference? If they don't give you this hat, I'm afraid your hundreds of millions of fans won't agree."
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Dad, don't praise him. Look, his tail is about to go up in the sky."
Xiao Yunhai giggled and said: "Wife, you are too boring. It's rare for Dad to praise me once, so let him say it. Don't worry, I can hold on to your husband."
The crowd laughed.
Xiao Changfeng shook his head and sighed: "You, it's time to change your temperament. I tell you, when you go to a meeting, you must listen to a small number of people. In that case, if you say something wrong, you can It's a shame."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Dad, don't worry."
In the next few days, Xiao Yunhai was either busy at home to celebrate the New Year, or went to the company to be the later stage of "The Grandmaster".
On February 18, "Captain America" had its world premiere, and it earned $512 million that night, even higher than "Dr. Mutant."
It is thanks to Huaxia that we can get this good result.
Because the Chinese New Year is coming soon in all parts of China, everyone has worked hard for a year, and they have a lot of money in their hands. Many people choose to go to the movies.
"Captain America" is the third 3D movie, and its appeal is naturally much higher than other 2D movies.
The next day, "Captain America" won $1.598 billion and swept the world movie scene.
Next, 1.357 billion, 1.524 billion, 1.123 billion, 1.248 billion, 1.361 billion... A series of box office figures directly blinded the eyes of world filmmakers.
Compared with "Dr. Mutant", "Captain America" is better in terms of word of mouth and box office.
Xiao Yunhai is naturally very happy to see another movie with a value of more than 10 billion US dollars. On the phone, Xiao Yunhai told Raul that after all four films were shown, he would
Hold a grand celebration party within the company, and then give all the film creators big red envelopes.
