My Attic Connects To Other Worlds

Chapter 142: 141 A Miracle at the Global Box Office!

The North American market is the vane of the world.

After this data broke out, the whole world was boiling over.

What followed was a worldwide box office frenzy.

The first is Japan, which is also one of the largest markets in the world outside of North America.

Moreover, almost without exception, Chinese-language films that have achieved global box office miracles have achieved success in Japan.

Even before the miracle news came from the box office in North America, the box office in Japan had already exploded, and it was getting more and more explosive.

But there are still some places where the box office is a bit hard to describe.

For example, Xiangjiang, Baodao, and the Korean market.

The film markets in these three places are already very mature.

However, the performance of mainland films in these three markets is very average.

For example, in the Xiangjiang market, the best result was "Hero", which got 24 million Hong Kong dollars, and the next one was "Curse of the Golden Flower" with about 18 million.

But there are special reasons why these two movies are doing well at the box office in Hong Kong. Needless to say, heroes, almost all of them are Hong Kong stars, especially the kung fu superstar, which has great appeal in Hong Kong itself.

It should be another world latitude that really created a box office miracle in Hong Kong. Two years later, "Let the Bullets Fly", although it was only 12 million.

But although this movie has Fa Ge, whether it is from the cast or the theme of the movie, it should not be liked by Xiangjiang people, but it has won more than 10 million yuan, which is really a miracle.

In short, it is difficult for mainland films to achieve particularly successful box office in Xiangjiang.

In another world, as of 2019, the No. 1 box office in Xiangjiang is "Avengers 4", with 221 million Hong Kong dollars.

The second place is Avatar, with 179 million Hong Kong dollars.

The third place is Avengers 3, 153 million.

That's right, the top three are all Hollywood movies.

In fact, after counting, it has been No. 23, all of which are Hollywood movies.

The best result of a Xiangjiang film is "Cold War 2", ranking 26th.

As for mainland movies, none of them made the top 50, or even the top 100.

"Three-Body Problem 1", Xiangjiang is also released on July 18.

Although it created an unprecedented box office miracle in the mainland, it was just okay in Xiangjiang, with a box office of 11.5 million in the first week.

It must be good. According to the normal trajectory, it is a high probability event to surpass "Hero", but it is far from a miracle.

After the box office data came out, many filmmakers in Xiangjiang expressed their disappointment with this data, and there should not be only such a small box office.

And called on the audience of Hong Kong to enter the cinema to enjoy this unprecedented masterpiece.

But the effect is still normal.

But after the North American box office came out in the first week, the whole world went crazy.

Xiangjiang’s box office began to explode, the South Korean market began to explode, and even Formosa’s box office began to explode, and Australia’s box office exploded.

As for Europe, it is probably the most arrogant group in the world.

Of course, Hollywood movies have also swept the European market, but the mainstream attitude here has always taken a relatively contemptuous attitude towards Hollywood works.

While most of the market is occupied by others, they also look down on the commercialization of Hollywood movies.

He said no with his mouth, but his body was quite honest.

So after Three-Body 1 was released in Europe, the results were very good, but it didn't have a big hit.

After the news from North America came out, the box office in Europe has risen, but it still hasn't exploded.

But it’s not too bad, it’s still an unprecedented good result.

………………

The scariest thing is still at home.

After the box office data came out in the second week, the whole country was completely speechless.

The box office for five days of release in the first week was 327 million.

In the second week, the box office reached an astonishing 489 million.

Not only was it a reverse decline, but it also rose by 50%.

Really everyone was stunned. After two weeks of release, the box office reached 816 million.

How much will this end up at the box office? Who knows.

Immediately afterwards, the box office of the first week of the world except China also came out.

141 million US dollars, including 83 million US dollars in the North American market.

In other words, including China, the total global box office has reached 249 million US dollars.

The global box office of "Star Wars Episode 1" is 890 million US dollars.

It's not hopeless to hit this result.

It was the second week in North America that really shocked the markets.

The box office was 64 million in the first weekend.

In the second week, the number of venues showing the show rose from 2,500 to 4,000.

As a result, it grossed $73 million the following weekend.

A truly unprecedented inverse decline.

It's okay to realize the reverse decline in the Chinese market, but this amazing miracle has also been staged in the North American market.

The next week, the North American box office reached an astonishing $115 million, and the total box office in North America reached $198 million.

Of course, there is still a long way to go from the $474 million of Star Wars Episode 1.

But it's not hopeless, because it's only been released for less than two weeks, and the box office curve is still so bad.

The scariest thing is the global box office.

The box office of "Three-Body Problem 1" in China finally dropped a bit in the third week, but there were still 430 million yuan, so the total box office came to 1.236 billion yuan.

And in the second week of the world, due to the influence of word-of-mouth in the North American market, it reached an astonishing US$160 million, a 50% increase from the first week.

So, on August 8th.

The global box office of "Three-Body Problem 1" reached a staggering $416 million.

Everyone has to face a fact.

The final box office of "Three-Body Problem 1" is likely to surpass that of "Star Wars Episode 1".

The most important thing is that in all film reviews, "Star Wars Episode 1" has mixed reviews, but "Three-Body Problem 1" is almost all positive.

From Rotten Tomatoes to IMDB, to other charts around the world, all are high scores.

Of course, these scores have dropped to a certain extent compared to when it was just released, but the scores are still very high.

What is even more frightening is the box office curve shown globally. It has entered the third week, but there is no obvious downward trend in the box office.

Then, everyone had to face a fact.

More than two years ago, the "Three-Body" victory over "Star Wars Episode 1", which was considered completely impossible, will really happen.

This incredible miracle.

It really happens.

Moreover, several well-known forecasting companies around the world have released reports.

The global box office of "Three-Body Problem 1" may eventually exceed US$1 billion.

Especially in the Chinese market, a completely unbelievable data may burst out.

Because the audience in the Chinese market has gone crazy, many audiences have been rewatching this movie in order to win Wang Huan.

And these agencies predict.

"Three-Body Problem 2", which will be released five months later, is likely to explode into an even more astonishing box office miracle.

Because the scene in the second part is bigger and the plot is more intense.

The Trisolarans, whom countless viewers have been waiting for for a long time, are finally going to attack the earth, and the space war between the two sides is also coming.

So the real climax of the movie is coming.

Then there is a problem.

If "The Three-Body Problem" does beat "Star Wars Episode 1" at the box office, what about the President of the United States?

Is it really necessary to apologize to Wang Huan in person as in the game?

At this time, the American media could no longer hold back, and kept sending out soul-searching questions.

"President, are you going to apologize?"

"Mr. President, are you going to take back your previous position of criticizing the Beijing Olympics?"

Of course, eventually the world's media all became unified formats.

If Wang Huan wins.

So will the President of the United States apologize?

The American media asked this question, and many media outlets around the world also asked the same question.

Almost all of them were screened by this question.

One day, in a normal press conference, it's really just a regular meeting

Despite repeated warnings in advance, do not ask related questions.

But at the regular meeting of the live TV broadcast, there was still a hard-headed reporter who asked: "Mr. President, now it seems that the box office of "Three-Body Problem" surpasses that of "Star Wars Episode 1" is a high probability event, although two years ago it was completely I can't imagine it, but now it seems that Wang Huan is likely to win such a bet, then will you apologize to Wang Huan? Will you change your position on the Beijing Olympics?"

As soon as the words came out, the American president left without looking back.

Anyway, the regular meeting is over.

………………

At this time, Wang Huan began to promote the world.

He went to Xiangjiang, to Southeast Asia, to Japan, and then to Europe.

After going to Europe, I was going to go to North America to promote.

However, this regular White House meeting seemed to be a catalyst.

At this time, Wang Huan was in France, and he received a call from someone from Sony Pictures, asking for a meeting.

In a small restaurant, Wang Huan met this senior executive of Sony Pictures.

"Mr. Wang Huan, I want to tell you a very sad news. Starting next week, the venues where "Three-Body Problem 1" will be shown will be greatly reduced."

Wang Huan trembled, this day finally came.

"Reduce to how much?" Wang Huan asked.

"500." The other party said.

From 4,200 to 500, what a cut in the box office.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Wang Huan, we really tried our best, but this willpower is too great, and it doesn't just come from the White House, we really can't resist." The other party said.

Of course Wang Huan knew that this was not just pressure from the White House.

If this gamble is just for the President of the United States to apologize to Wang Huan, then there is no problem.

In the interests of capital, the face of the US president is not that valuable.

But...it involves a change in attitude towards the Beijing Olympics.

The benefits in that are huge, not just hundreds of millions of dollars, or more than a billion dollars.

In another world, until 2008, before the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, the struggle became day-to-day

Even when the Olympic Games opened, the war between Russia and Georgia was in full swing.

And it has been said that when the Olympic Games are about to open, the president of the United States said that he will come to attend the opening ceremony.

In the year of 2008, I don't know how many things happened.

At a certain time of the year, an unknown number of countries in the Western world were boycotting the Beijing Olympics.

"Mr. Wang Huan, not only the North American market, but also the European market, and the Australian market will reduce the number of films on a large scale. It is not a public ban, but a covert ban. The box office of "Three-Body Problem" will never surpass that of "Star Wars." Prewar."

At this time, the other party couldn't help but say: "Mr. Wang Huan, you shouldn't have mentioned the President of the United States' position on the Beijing Olympics. If we just apologized to you, then we have enough lobbying power. After all, no one Can't get along with money."

Wang Huan said: "I see."

After hesitating for a moment, the Sony Pictures man said: "Mr. Wang Huan, by the way, let me tell you one thing. Not only will they reduce the schedule of "Three-Body Problem" in the world, but they are also preparing to expose a huge scandal about you, and it is Please be prepared for a scandal with solid evidence."

Is this a nomination certificate?

The other party is desperately expressing that my interests and yours are completely consistent.

We did this out of necessity.

………………

next week.

Something that caught countless viewers off guard really happened.

Markets all over the world have reduced film scheduling on a large scale.

Especially in the hot North American market, the number of screening venues has dropped from 4,200 to 500 at once.

Almost directly cut 90% of the games.

There is also the European market, which has also been cut by 70%, and the Australian market has been cut by 90%.

In the Korean market, 70% was cut.

The Japanese market was relatively less affected, with a 40% cut.

The Southeast Asian market has little impact, only cut 20% of the shows, but its market is too small.

There is also the Russian market. Instead of cutting the number of games, it has increased by 20%, but its market is not big enough.

The box office miracle, which was still very popular, was stopped in an instant.

"Three-Body Problem 1" had already soared to $530 million at the box office.

Beyond "Star Wars Episode 1" is completely certain.

And now, instantly killed.

As for the reason?

Sorry, there is no reason.

To be honest, do you still need a reason to suppress you?

And what did it do to you?

It's just to reduce the number of films, it's completely normal business behavior, what reason is needed?

Of course, in this way, the President of the United States will definitely be scolded, saying that he cannot afford to lose.

But the president of the United States is scolded countless times every year, and even throws stinky shoes at the press conference, but so what?

Besides, the term of the president is only one year.

At this time, Wang Huan was faced with a choice. He was going to the United States for publicity.

In other words, to thank the audience over there and hold a celebration party.

But now, the U.S. market has been blocked, should we still go there?

Besides, would it be dangerous for Wang Huan to go at this time?

If not?

In the United States, the itinerary has been announced, and a grand meeting will be held at the China Grand Theater.

Besides, if Wang Huan won instead of being banned from the North American market, he would still be going to the United States.

Because he wants to accept a face-to-face apology from the President of the United States?

After hesitating again and again, Wang Huan still did not choose to refund the ticket, and still chose to go to the United States.

………………

On August 13, Wang Huan boarded a plane to the United States.

And just minutes after he boarded the plane.

A group of photos broke out on the website of the United States.

The queen superstar Lin Bing got into Wang Huan's car, and the two kissed passionately.

Another photo was taken at the Conservatory of Music, where Zuo Ling and Wang Huan hugged and kissed.

Moreover, the interval between the two photos should not exceed three days.

This group of photos caused a certain sensation on American websites, but only so-so.

After all, in the American entertainment industry, such bloody things happen.

There are even more explosive ones. The little queen was photographed without underwear, but it didn't cause any shocking storm.

But this group of photos quickly spread around the world.

Especially on domestic websites.

It exploded in an instant.

Wang Huan stepped on two boats.

Then another news broke that Wang Huan was not only riding two boats, but three boats.

His relationship with diving queen Bai Xue is also ambiguous.

Soon, photos of Wang Huan and Bai Xue appeared on some forums.

There were no kisses or hugs, but their expressions were very intimate, especially the way Bai Xue looked at Wang Huan, which she couldn't hide at all.

The domestic department is still vigilant, and when these photos first appeared, they directly notified these portals.

delete, delete, delete

Do not disseminate, do not report.

Moreover, the relevant departments directly ordered to call the bosses of the websites of the major portals, see the post and delete it.

But it is well known.

Once this kind of thing breaks out, it cannot be stopped at all.

There is no way to delete it all, it is definitely a wildfire that can never be exhausted, and the spring breeze blows and regenerates.

The more banned, the wider the spread.

Relevant photos spread wildly.

Of course, these photos are not too extreme at all, let alone revealing.

Just, hugs and kisses.

But in China, this is already a super taboo.

How many celebrities, once it was revealed that they had an extramarital affair, were directly blocked by cold storage.

Even in the article, he was only vaguely photographed, and there was no real photo evidence, but he was also cool.

And Wang Huan!

I was actually photographed stepping on two boats, hugging and kissing two different women less than three days apart.

And it is likely to be on three boats.

Although there was no intimate action in the photo with Bai Xue, Bai Xue's eyes looked abnormal, as if she was in love.

Stepping on three boats? !

It's so hot!

This matter is completely contrary to the domestic moral point of view.

So in just a few hours, this "scandal" instantly detonated the entire domestic Internet.

Detonated the entire public opinion.

At the same time, countless people called Wang Huan at the same time.

But at this time, his phone could no longer be connected, because he couldn't get through the phone on the plane.

………………

Sitting on the plane, Wang Huan seemed a little indifferent.

In fact, when the people from Sony Pictures said that someone was going to blow him up.

He probably guessed what was going on, and so far his personal morality has been almost flawless.

Only on women.

Of course, in this matter, he couldn't explain to Zuo Ling, and it was true that he couldn't explain to Bai Xue.

As for the people? How should I explain?

Wang Huan thought for a long time.

But at this moment!

"Bang!" Suddenly there was a loud noise in front of him.

Then, there was a burst of shrill screams and exclamations.

Immediately afterwards, the lights of the entire plane dimmed suddenly.

There was total chaos ahead.

"Bang, bang..." There were actually two gunshots.

Lean, lean, lean.

What happened?

This... this is unreasonable and not normal.

In another history, since the Shimao Tower accident, there have been almost no terrible hijackings.

Of course, something even more terrifying happened after 2014, that is, the entire flight disappeared inexplicably, and more than one.

There are even civil aviation airliners that were directly hit by missiles and fell.

In short, the world line is getting more and more magical.

But the scene that happened before Wang Huan's eyes was extremely magical.

Terrorists, can they still bring guns to the plane? This is impossible, after a certain 11 incident, it will be impossible.

But Wang Huan soon realized that it was impossible for terrorists to bring guns, but every flight had a secret policeman pretending to be a passenger. This person had a gun, and his gun was likely to be stolen.

After a while.

The plane's lights came on again.

Three people appeared in front of Wang Huan, all wearing masks, and one of them held a gun in his hand.

The man with the gun sneered cruelly and said something.

Not English, but the language of a country in the Middle East.

It was really a hijacking by terrorist members, and there is a high probability that it has nothing to do with the United States.

After the man with the gun finished speaking, he raised his gun and aimed the dark muzzle at Wang Huan.

………………………

Note: I have been in meetings all day, and there are activities in the evening, but I have the cheek to ask for leave and come back to code. This is the only update today, sorry sorry.

I really seized the opportunity to code words, benefactor who has a monthly pass, can you still give it to me?
