This is the premiere of "Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake". As a grand project of Chinese-language films and the first film of the four major fantasy series, Golden Harvest Entertainment specially held a grand global premiere for the film. Not only the big-name stars in the Chinese film circle were all present, but even many international superstars also came.

Robert Downey Jr., Jake Gyllenhaal, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Scarlett Johansson, Gwyneth Paltrow and many more.

What is even more eye-catching is that international directors Shao Shuaijun, James Cameron, Christopher Nolan, Jon Favreau, Li An, Wu Yusen, Wang Jiawei, etc. all came to join in the show.

The scene of the premiere ceremony can be described as a star-studded scene.

After the movie ended, everyone applauded and applauded. "Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" discards the lengthy and mysterious content, drives the plot with a simple main line of vendetta, and uses gorgeous special effects and magical martial arts to supplement the paleness of the film's content. Especially under the powerful effect of the Chinese giant screen, Shao Shuaijun can feel that when watching a movie, he seems to be in this magical world.

"The effect of the movie is very good. Compared with ordinary Chinese movies, the plot is more concise, clear and light. It is a kind of enjoyment to watch such a movie." After Cameron came out, he praised the movie to reporters.

"Very cool picture, full of impact, with ancient oriental cultural atmosphere, it is a very good movie." Nolan also praised.

"Compared to "Painted Skin" and "Painted Skin 2", the special effects of "The Legend of the White Snake: The Legend of the Green Snake" are more mature, using a simple plot to express what the director wants to express, I think this is the four major Director Chen Jiashang did a great job of performing what the magic series should do." Shao Shuaijun was very satisfied with the film. [

The reporters asked: ""Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" has met your requirements. Does it mean that the follow-up plan of the four major magic series will be fully launched?"

Shao Shuaijun said: "We still need to look at the situation of overseas releases. Our feelings after watching the film are not enough to prove the success of the film. The audience is the most suitable person to test the film."

"What kind of achievements do you think "Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" can be considered a success, and you can continue to start the follow-up plan?"

"The film's release schedule is not very good. After all, "Fast and Furious 6" is also released during this period, but I hope that this film can withstand such great pressure and surpass the achievements of "Painted Skin". "Painted Skin 2" is the same, so it is qualified."

"Painted Skin" has a global value of 20.3 billion US dollars, and "Painted Skin 2" has a global value of 26.7 billion US dollars. This is the first magical work of Chinese-language movies.

The premiere ceremony was very successful. Whether it was the praise of the stars or the comments of the media, it refreshed the audience's expectations over and over again. During the global promotion of "Legend of the White Snake: The Legend of the Green Snake", Shao Shuaijun made another trip to the United States to stand for "Now You See Me" directed by his old partner Luis Renard.

"Now Now You See Me" tells the story of a group of high-intelligence thieves who use the most cutting-edge technology and use the gorgeous stage as a cover to complete the theft in full view. Finally completed the road of robbing the rich and helping the poor, and finding the truth of magic. Originally, Shao Shuaijun hoped that Jack Gyllenhaal would come to support the stage and play the leading role in this movie, but because Gyllenhaal did not have enough time to film "Thor 2: The Dark World", Mark, who played the Hulk in the "Women" Federation, finally Played by Ruffalo.

From May 32 to June 2, "Now Now You See Me" opened in North America with a total of 28.05 million US dollars, which is not a bad start, after all, the budget is only 75 million US dollars. On the second weekend of June, on June 7, "Now You See Me" began to be released overseas, and "The Legend of the White Snake: The Legend of the Green Snake" was also released in 39 countries and regions overseas.

After the three-day weekend, the box office is out.

"Now Now You See Me" performed well, with a box office of nearly 80 million US dollars overseas, and 19.5 million US dollars in North America. With a box office of nearly 100 million US dollars, it topped the global box office this week. And "Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" earned US$47 million in only 39 markets, setting records for Chinese-language films in many places.

""Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" got off to a good start, breaking the box office records of Chinese-language movies in many places, and the four major magic series declared success!" —— "Beijing Entertainment News".

"A blockbuster blockbuster with dazzling special effects, a rising work of Chinese films." -Singapore's "Sing Tao Daily".

"The magical colors are fascinating. This is one of the few excellent Chinese-language movies in recent years." - Australia's "Australian Chronicle".

"Chinese filmmakers have found a new way to make the film rise, and the Korea Film Revitalization Commission needs to learn more!" - South Korea's "Seoul News".

"Legend of the White Snake: The Legend of the Green Snake directed by Chen Jiashang was a huge success, and Shao Shuaijun added the first corner to the jigsaw puzzle of the four major magic series." - Hong Kong Ming Pao. [

"Chinese-language films without Chinese taste, behind the magic is Hollywood-style packaging, how can we talk about the revitalization of Chinese-language films?" - "Southern Metropolis Entertainment Weekly".

"Refuting "Southern Metropolis Entertainment Weekly", "The Legend of the White Snake: The Legend of the Green Snake" is packaged with special effects, showing the splendid culture of China's 5,000-year-old culture. How can it not be the revitalization of Chinese-language movies? First we must go out, and then we can talk about the export of values! If you can't get out , No matter how strong the values ​​are, it can’t be called revitalization!" - "Modu Online".

Overseas box office is very good, Golden Harvest Entertainment immediately held a press conference to confirm that starting next week, "Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" will be screened in mainland China, and will be released in North America next week, competing with Hollywood movies!

Domestic audiences can't wait to feel the superhero blockbuster of this Chinese movie.

According to the pre-sale ticket data from Mtime.com, almost all the movie tickets pre-sold on Mtime.com were sold out in a short period of time. Among them, movie tickets in the formats of mx-3, China Giant Screen, mx, and 3 are the most sought-after, and the supply exceeds demand.

"Oh, I didn't get the mx-3 movie ticket for the premiere on June 14th. Who would be kind enough to give it to me." Netizen Xiao Mingwa exclaimed in a message on the Internet.

"I don't have either, but it seems that Golden Harvest Studios has reserved half of the on-site tickets, hoping to queue up to buy them." Netizen yhxzx1 said.

The movie-watching heart of mainland audiences has become unbearable. Not only have the movie tickets been swept away, but the trailers have been watched over and over again.

On June 14, "Superman: Man of Steel" began to rage in North America, while "Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" raged in mainland China. CCTV also gave a 30-second report on "News Broadcast" to help promote the movie.

Fighting fiercely all night and all day, the next day, Mtime.com released the box office statistics.

"12 million yuan for the midnight show, and 1.36 million yuan for the premiere!"

It is not as fierce as "Iron Man 3", but it is definitely a new record for Chinese-language movies!

The 14th is Friday, and the next two weekends ended. "Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" was released in three days, and won 442.69 million yuan, which is another new height for Chinese-language movies!

Overseas has expanded to 76 countries and regions, with a harvest of 69 million U.S. dollars this week. So far, the film's total box office has reached 18.6 billion US dollars.

"Xiaoqing is going against the sky! "Old Boy" won the US$32.1 billion Chinese film championship, I'm afraid it will be lost." Netizen Interstellar Elements exclaimed in disbelief.

"The storm of Chinese-language movies has already risen, and the four major magical series will definitely bring Chinese-language movies to a new height! Looking forward to the shooting of "Yellow Emperor: Battle for the Deer" directed by Shao Shuaijun himself!" Prince Ma shouted on the scarf that the movie is delicious and enjoyable.

The film not only gained at the box office, but also gained a lot of word-of-mouth.

The vividness of Mtime Online is 91, and the user score is 81. As a Chinese-language special effects blockbuster, it is not easy to get such praise. Three weeks later, "Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" grossed 8.6 billion yuan in the mainland, accumulating a total global box office of 26.8 billion US dollars, surpassing "Painted Skin 2" and successfully fulfilling Shao Shuaijun's expectations.

Now the overseas and mainland potential has basically been exhausted, and the film has finally landed in North America, and it is going head-to-head with Hollywood blockbusters. Whether a film is successful or not, a large part of the factors determine the situation in Hollywood's base camp.

This week's two new North American films "Hot Hands" and "Shocking Crisis", plus the amazing performances of "Monsters University" and "Doomsday War" last week, and the third week of Warner Bros.'s $22.5 billion "Superman" :man of Steel". It can be said that this is a very competitive week for the summer file.

Three days later, the results of the battle were released.

"Superman: Man of Steel" ranked sixth with US$20.16 million, "Shocking Crisis" ranked fifth with US$24.65 million, "Doomsday War" ranked fourth with US$27.89 million, and "Hot Hands" ranked third with US$38.5 million three.

The champion still belongs to "Monsters University" with 46.18 million US dollars, but "White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" only has a slight gap of 2 million US dollars, ranking second. The first six films all exceeded 20 million US dollars, and Green Snake's 44.18 million US dollars, the gold content is definitely full of gold!

""Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" broke through fierce battles in North America, with a strong reputation at the box office. Shao Shuaijun's production of the sailing work is outstanding!"

"Chinese films have won a beautiful victory in Hollywood."

"Where there is Shao Shuaijun, there will be countless box office. This theorem is not only applicable to Hollywood, but also to any place."

"Shao Shuaijun created the magical branch of Chinese-language movies and made this subject shine. He is a true film master!"

The Green Snake was highly praised by the Hollywood media, but unfortunately, the director Chen Jiashang was completely ignored. Because this is Hollywood, and because Shao Shuaijun has conquered this place, all the aura in the eyes of the media belongs to Shao Shuaijun. As for Chen Jiashang, I'm sorry, out of ten newspapers, there may only be one newspaper to mention by the way...

Among the praises, "The Legend of the White Snake: The Legend of the Green Snake" has accumulated a total of 31.9 billion US dollars worldwide, and it is only one step away from replacing "Old Boy". In the second week in North America, Universal's only anticipated release, "Despicable Me 2", was released at the same time as Disney's peerless blockbuster "The Lone Ranger", which was created with hundreds of millions of dollars.

"The Lone Ranger" is adapted from the super popular show "Legend of the Ranger" in the last century. Disney spent 2.5 billion US dollars on investment and invited the most expensive man in Hollywood, Johnny Depp, who directed "Pirates of the Caribbean" Director Gore Verbinski serves as director.

""The Lone Ranger" is coming, Xiaoqing will be crushed to death." Mainland netizens wailed endlessly.

Shao Shuaijun also shook his head greatly. His memory before rebirth has expired, and all plans were arranged by the company. Originally scheduled to be released in North America, I didn't expect how much box office "Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" could get in North America, so I'm not afraid of any blockbuster strangulation, but Xiaoqing is really strong.

All I can say is bad luck.
