Chapter Five Hundred and Eighty Seventh Popular in America
After seeing Cologne's film review, Xiao Yunhai smiled directly and said to Zhao Wanqing, "It seems that 'Doomsday Game' is not a big threat to us."
Zhao Wanqing shook her head and said, "Don't take it lightly. Sometimes, word-of-mouth and box office are polarized. The leading actors of this movie are all big international stars with hundreds of millions of fans. "Doomsday Game" contributed a lot to the box office."
Xiao Yunhai said: "The appeal of a star will only show its power in the first few days of the film. What really can win the final victory depends on the quality of the film."
Zhao Wanqing asked: "Then what do you think of the provocation of the American boxing champion? If there is a real fight, can you beat him?"
Xiao Yunhai said disdainfully, "If you can win if you are big, then what kind of kung fu is there? A boxing champion like Kesen is already set to death by the rules on the ring, and if he really fights in real life, he will definitely not be able to win. Don't talk about me, even Zhou Lihu can kill him. The real danger should be the Muay Thai champion. Of course, as long as they don't mess with me, I don't bother to care about them. Your husband and I are tens of billions of dollars. , how can you easily fight with them. Wife, it's okay anyway, why don't we go and watch "Doomsday Game"?"
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Are you contributing your own strength to your opponent's box office?"
Xiao Yunhai said: "Wrong, it should be called "knowing yourself and knowing your enemy, and you will be safe in a hundred battles."
As he said, Xiao Yunhai drove a Ford armored vehicle and brought Zhao Wanqing to the Fox Cinema. As for the driver's license, it took Kerry less than a day to get it for him.
Two hours later, when he walked out of the cinema, Xiao Yunhai said to Zhao Wanqing with a look of disappointment: "The clone's film review is not wrong at all, except for the explosion scene and a few superstars playing handsome there, I didn't see anything."
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "This is a good thing for Heroes of the Martial Arts."
Xiao Yunhai said stinkingly: "What's the matter? Movies can only progress when there is competition. It's too cold to be at a high place. Now I feel a little lonely and wanting to lose.
"
Zhao Wanqing snorted and scolded with a smile: "You are so shameless, you are too thick-skinned."
Despite the poor reputation of "Doomsday Game", with the appeal of several top superstars, it still won a box office of 140 million, surpassing "Fighting Heroes" and won the first place of the day.
Affected by "Doomsday Game", Xiao Yunhai's "Fighting Heroes" box office dropped from 140 million to 110 million US dollars.
However, on Rotten Tomatoes, the 8.3 points of "Fighting Heroes" are still far ahead of "Doomsday Game"'s 6.2 points, and the reputation is even more good.
Scared of anything? The same goes for movies.
The bad reviews of "Doomsday Game" are extremely dazzling compared with the positive reviews of "Fighting Heroes".
Those superstar fans didn't say anything to their idols, but they were not polite to "Doomsday Game".
What is Fox doing? Did I wait half a year for this trashy movie? "
"Doomsday Game is a stinky fart compared to Heroes of Valor."
"After watching "Doomsday Game", I suddenly felt sick for a while. No way, I watched "Fighting Heroes" again, and I felt a lot better."
"My idol Rock is so pitiful. Since his debut, the action movies he has made have always received rave reviews. Unexpectedly, it was ruined by a "Doomsday Game". Fox, I hate you."
