Chapter 249 Making History
Although "Sword Dance in the City" is a story of China and the Tang Dynasty, "Tang" itself is a very unique mark on Japan. You must know that it is precisely because of the existence of the envoys of the Tang Dynasty that Japan truly emerged from ignorance and gradually began to have its own culture.
The grand atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in "Sword Dance in the City" not only infected Chinese audiences, but also Japanese audiences. Zhou Yi's beauty and Gongsun Jianwu's style conquered everyone.
This is the charm of the movie, and the evaluation of the movie is not just box office and awards.
When "Sword Dance in the City" ended, the entire cinema fell into fanaticism.
Almost all viewers, regardless of gender, age, or age, have become Zhou Yi's fans, and many of Zhou Yi's fans were almost worshipping Zhou Yi.
Because of the character "Gongsun Yao", it is much more outstanding than "Lin Qingxi" and "Yuan Beixi".
Before the release of "Sword Dance in the City", many people were quite disdainful of Zhou Yi's fanatical pursuit in Japan and the treatment of superstars as a superstar, but now, they are all silent.
On that day, "Sword Dance in the City" was released on 960 screens in 448 cinemas in Japan, and Songzhu Film made its best efforts.
Reports from reporters and media from all over the country were basically packed, with audiences everywhere, and tickets were hard to come by in many places.
The box office record on the first day of release was 760 million yen.
As soon as this record was released, the whole of Japan was shocked.
You should know that before that, Japan's highest single-day box office record was created by Star Wars 3: Revenge of the Sith in 2005, and it was less than 500 million yen, while "Sword Dance" easily broke this record and improved too much.
Although there are very few things once converted into Huayuan, you should know that the Japanese film market has stagnated for a long time and has even been sluggish.
Just look at the film history of Japanese movies, and the highest box office champion is actually a movie "Spirited Away" released 17 years ago, you will know.
17 years have passed, enough for a baby to grow into an adult, but the box office champion of Japan's movies has not changed at all, and "Spirited Away" is rarely challenged.
But now, a powerful enemy has emerged, and many Japanese filmmakers have realized that this time, "Sword Dance in the City" from China is likely to create history and rewrite history.
Some narrow Japanese filmmakers began to call on the audience not to enter the cinema and boycott "Sword Dance in the City". However, under the spontaneous demand of the audience and in the face of the enthusiastic enthusiasm of the fans, these words and appeals have no effect at all.
Everyone just wants to watch a good movie, who cares about who made the movie?
Zhou Yi's itinerary is very tight. He basically has one city a day, from Tokyo to Yokohama, from Osaka to Nagoya, and every place, there are fans gathering, police cars everywhere, and many politicians are also taking advantage of the popularity. They are really amazing, and even more treatment than many heads of state when they visit Japan.
"Sword Dance in the City" is indeed as expected by many people, making rapid progress in the Japanese film market, breaking records after records and constantly creating new history.
The highest box office record in three days of premiere, broken!
The highest box office record in the week of premiere, broken!
The fastest box office record of 3 billion yen in history, broken!
The fastest box office record of 10 billion yen in history, breaking!
The record of historical audiences exceeds 10 million at the fastest time, breaking!
The Japanese film market is more important in reputation. Many Japanese people will not watch movies as soon as possible, but will happily go to the cinema after their reputation fermentation.
Moreover, the pirated film market in Japan is severely regulated, and it is very difficult to search for pirated film and television resources, and most people cannot find it at all.
Therefore, the Japanese film market is not like the United States and China. It is basically a one-time deal, with a large proportion of box office in the first week and month of release.
On the contrary, good movies in the Japanese market are easy to grow rainbows, and several moon champions are easy to appear, and more than ten consecutive games are not uncommon.
"Sword Dance" is on this road, with a box office of 10 billion yen in just three weeks of release. Although it is still a long way from the record of "Spirited Away", this distance is indeed getting closer at an extremely fast speed.
Zhou Yi didn't have time to stay in Japan for so long. After a week-long movie promotion period, he boarded the plane back home. This time, the number of fans who came to take the plane dropped off was several times higher than when they picked it up. Even if almost all the staff of the Tokyo Police Department were dispatched, traffic jams and riots were inevitable.
After this battle, Zhou Yi really became the favorite and most loved big star in the hearts of many Japanese people, and it reached a point where almost no one can match it.
News about Zhou Yi in Japan has been constantly being passed back to China, and Chinese people also like this kind of news very much.
You should know that it has become famous overseas and demonstrated the glory of China. For thousands of years, it has been the favorite and most honorable thing for Chinese people. Nowadays, various Hollywood movies, Japanese animations, Korean idol dramas have invaded China. In the field of culture, China really wants to find a benchmark.
Now I finally found it.
That is Zhou Yi.
The movie "Sword Dance in the City" not only won three major awards in Cannes, but also continuously created new movie box office records in Japan, which is much stronger than being in China.
The relevant departments and relevant leaders see it, and naturally remember it in their hearts.
Under this circumstance, the relevant reports of "Sword Dance in the City" appeared on the "News Broadcast".
"Recently, the Chinese movie "Sword Dance in the City" was popular in Japan, with thousands of people missing, rewriting the box office record of Japanese movies..."
The report didn't take long, only 100 seconds, but Zhou Yi held up the Cannes Palme d'Or trophy and all the sensation caused by it in China and Japan were included, which was quite detailed.
And it really makes people feel proud.
Although Zhou Yi won the Venetian movie hero as soon as she debuted and was interviewed and reported by CCTV, she was originally only on the movie channel and later appeared on CCTV-1 news, but she is still a long way from "News Broadcast".
This time, Zhou Yi thought that if he broke the record of "Wolf Warrior 2", he would not expect that the time would be much earlier.
It seems that this trip to Japan has really benefited a lot.
Although it is exaggerated by the sentence "Jian is in the Emperor's Heart", at least on the surface, there will be many obstacles. If you are shooting movies, you will probably have a smooth journey.
Stimulated by the report of "News Broadcast", many Chinese people who inspired pride went to the cinema, especially many middle-aged and elderly people who did not necessarily watch movies once a year, and audiences in small towns and even rural areas, also contributed their efforts to the box office of "Sword Dance in the City".
The box office of "Sword Dance in the City" easily exceeded the 4 billion mark and began to advance towards 5 billion.
