Chapter 472: The National Cinema Chain Removes Shelves Uniformly
The global box office revenue of the Chinese film "Alien" is close to 1.8 billion yuan. Judging from the experience and rising momentum of insiders, the overall box office revenue in the future is likely to exceed 10 billion yuan, or even higher, entering the top 20 highest box offices in history!
"Alien" has not only become a phenomenon-level product in the Chinese film industry, but also a hot topic for Haolaiwu.
A large number of American media were shocked by the huge box office revenue of "Alien" in the global market. Some comments inevitably had the mentality of "sour grapes" and classified it as "the curiosity of the Western public enemy Wang Qian". However, more comments believe that the success of a movie is not that simple, and the curiosity cannot support such a high box office. The ratings given by European and American film rating websites on "Alien" faithfully reflect the audience's feelings about this movie, which is obviously far beyond many American blockbusters of the same period.
Variety Show, the largest entertainment and cultural magazine in the United States, posted on its official website that it should be viewed more fairly by the miracle created by "Alien".
"Wang Qian is an alternative. He uses extraordinary suspense and thrilling expressions to tell a science fiction movie, successfully creating the image of a new type of horror monster alien that impressed the audience extremely deeply."
Variety Show also commented: "The biggest difference this time is that the Chinese flag is printed on the hull of Wang Qian. At the same time, the heroine played by Tang Jing is no longer a blonde and blue-eyed white man, but a pure black-eyed yellow man. The problem is that she has also won the recognition of all Western audiences."
"You know, Tang Jing has never acted in a movie in China. She is actually a singer, which makes us admire Wang Qian's directorial technique of turning stones into gold."
He has been working as a supporting role in China Film and Television City. This time, American actor Cliver, who plays a black man in "Alien", and white actor Grillo has now become a hot figure in the Western world. They were originally unknown and even went to China Film and Television City to make a living, but suddenly they received a large number of performance contracts from the famous director of Haolaiwu.
Cliver said in an exclusive interview with reporters: "This is the cultural output of China, but it is not the kind of 'propaganda indoctrination'. It is a reminder of the world's film industry by director Wang Qian's deep understanding of film. Chinese people can also produce extremely excellent films. He believes that this film will definitely win awards at many Western film festivals... If these judges can evaluate this film fairly and impartially."

An official media in China published an article: Why is "Alien" a goal to achieve the goal of domestic films going to the world?
Five days after its release, the global box office of "Alien" has reached nearly 1.8 billion yuan, setting a record in the Chinese film industry. It is a foregone conclusion that it has won the global box office championship of "Alien" in the final box office, the science fiction thriller style "Alien" has set a new high point and has also put the film's writing of the Chinese story in a new context.
To decode "Alien", we must not be able to avoid the audio-visual language of the Haolaiwu blockbuster. The grand cosmic starry sky scenes, realistic special effects, wonderful editing, unexpected alien monsters, and suspense and thriller plot designs have formed an industrial level comparable to the Haolaiwu blockbusterbuster.
Compared to another big production of the same period, there is no shortage of these elements, but why is only "Alien" successful in the European and American markets?
We must see that no matter how close it is to the appearance of the house, "Alien" still creates the soul of the Chinese theme. "Alien" creates several atypical images of ordinary Chinese people, some of whom value loyalty and others value discipline, and they have different results as a result.
Although the story can be improved and the details can be polished, this film still uses thriller and suspense to touch the audience's heartstrings, allowing the audience to realize the hugeness of the universe, the insignificance of human beings, and the risks of alien contact through this film.
The popular screening of "Alien" tells us that the world rewards serious people. Making a good movie with Chinese culture does not mean that everything will be fine under the banner of Chinese culture. The correct way to open it is still to be carefully produced.
Movies are the art of dream creation. The real world is like a vast ocean. Filmmakers use the camera to build dams and raise fish, and the inside and outside of this dream are connected.
"Alien" is like a pathfinder, testing the depth of the Chinese film market and once again verifies the fate of Chinese films and audiences and the times. It shows that living in the era of China's rise, we are not short of people who can make blockbusters well, and what we lack is wonderful stories and the ability to tell wonderful stories.
No matter when, humans have an insatiable demand for stories. In this era of information explosion, the production of stories often stalks ahead of value and thoughts. But we still do not give up and look for touching and strength on the big screen.
A world-renowned aesthetician once compared movies to a "worldview". This big screen is both a spiritual chicken soup that soothes emotions, a kaleidoscope of social history, and an "ambassador in the iron box" and a face of a nation-state. In the final analysis, it is both art and life.
Yes, the tentacles of the movie ultimately point to people. Whether it is heroes or ordinary people, whether it is noble or ordinary, whether it is singing lowly or emotionally burning, they are all part of the writing of the "China story". They all look forward to this writing promising a bright future for us.
The success of "Alien" in the European and American markets can be said to be an inspiration for the entire Chinese film industry.
Now, what we are most looking forward to is what kind of miracles can be created at the domestic box office and European and American box office on the sixth day of the release of "Alien"?
How far can it go? How many surprises can it bring to us?
...
Just when domestic and foreign media were unanimously optimistic about the future box office of "Alien", something happened suddenly and shocked the eyes.
The swelling of the buttocks and chrysanthemums issued a document requiring theaters across the country to unify the "Alien Shape".
The reason is that it has received a large number of complaints from parents of students, claiming that the plot of "Alien" is too horrible and bloody, causing great mental stimulation and harm to teenagers.
A parent even claimed that his son, who was in high school, was mentally ill and was receiving treatment in a mental hospital because he had watched "Alien" and would consider suing the "Alien" crew for a high-value claim in the future. In line with public opinion, he decided to remove "Alien" from "Alien" and deal with it. All theaters must implement it immediately, otherwise it will be closed.
"Alien", which could have created history at the global box office, reached a level of 10 billion, suddenly locked at 429 million by a command of a swollen neck.
It turns out that the gods fought and the people were injured. The Ministry of Culture just ordered to stop the "Defense of Earth" from continuing to steal the box office of "Alien". However, the butt was swollen and the anus was a swelling knife, and he directly kosted "Alien"!
"Alien" is missing, and other domestic films at the same time have deliberately avoided "The Battle of Earth" and "Alien". The original screening rate has dropped from market rules to less than 10% on the fifth day, but the screening rate has suddenly increased to 70% on the sixth day!
Many viewers who thought of watching "Alien" in the theater, but after going there, they received a notice that "Alien" had been forcibly removed from the shelves by being swollen from the butt. They were very disappointed. After finding out that the theater forced the film "The Battle of Earth" in the super bad movie, the audience began to verbally abuse the Internet.
But the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of this, and it always has this style. What is the real public opinion? The swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the swelling of the
Although with the help of the swelling and swollen chrysanthemum, "The Battle of Earth" once again received a screening rate of up to 70% in domestic theaters on the sixth day, the audience did not buy it at all, resulting in a large number of cinemas being vacant. However, these vacant cinemas were strangely sold with one or two movie tickets.
After the reporter's undercover investigation, an incident that made the audience and netizens across the country even more angry and resentful.
There is evidence that some fans who claim to be starring "The Battle of Earth" carefully planned the "Locking Field" campaign, soliciting ticket collectors and ticket buyers online (the fees are reimbursed by the collectors), and also established a quick ticket-to-site locking channel, and established a division of labor for regional leaders, covering almost the whole country.
According to the statistics of the fan club, these so-called crazy fans locked nearly 700,000 games across the country on the sixth day, many of which only had two or three viewers, and even only one viewer. Some fans bought tickets but did not go to watch the movies. Some tickets were bought in the first row or corner. There was a fan in Huanghe City who helped "The Battle of Earth" lock 27 games in a theater, but only spent more than 1,000 yuan.
If you buy a very small number of tickets when locking the scene is not popular, you can prevent the screening from being cancelled by the theater.
The initiator of all this is actually not the stars who starred, but Zhu Haibo.
In order to save the pitiful box office of "The Battle of Earth" and give enough reasons not to reduce the screening rate of "The Battle of Earth", Zhu Haibo, with the suggestion of several assistants, persuaded investors who were already on the verge of despair, and raised more than 10 million yuan to organize the lock-up operation.
Behind Zhu Haibo's proud lock-up was the cinema suffering huge losses. The manager of a cinema in Huanghe City said that after the premiere of "The Battle of Earth" collapsed, and the attendance rate was less than 5%. In other words, there were only more than ten people watching movies in the theater with about 200 people. Based on the average price of a ticket of 60 yuan, a "Alien" can be filled up every game and sold for more than 12,000 yuan, while a "The Battle of Earth" only costs 600 yuan, which will cost more than 100,000 yuan a day!
