Chapter 1554

The box office of the mainland is 2.1 billion yuan, about 300 million US dollars.

What does this set of numbers mean?

A simple horizontal comparison can be made. The five largest ticket warehouses outside North America are Britain, China, Japan, Germany and France. Of course, Spain, South Korea, Russia and Australia all have strong box office potential, but the average box office figure is still slightly lower.

Among the top five ticket warehouses, the box office is calculated in US dollars - because the box office statistics before 2000 are incomplete, and the main figures are still concentrated after the new century. As of 2013, the number of works whose total box office has exceeded the threshold of US $100 million is as follows: 13 in Japan, 8 in Britain, 6 in China, 3 in France, and 1 in Germany.

In other words, in the 13 years after the new century, the box office of a single region in the overseas market has exceeded 100 million only 31 times, while "Avatar" has successfully exceeded 100 million in the above five single regions, occupying five seats alone. In Germany, the film has a long history, and it is the only one with a cumulative box office of over 100 million.

This is the overall trend of global box office.

In addition, the total box office champion of a single region outside North America was created by "welcome to the north" in France in 2008, with us $193 million, surpassing the US $190 million created by "Hal's mobile Castle" in Japan in 2004. This result can be changed to another way——

At present, in the global film market, except for North America, no work in any region can get more than $200 million in box office data.

Although the film market is becoming more and more prosperous, the overall trend of the economy is still worrying, and the box office potential has never been able to be further tapped. This is also the reason why Hollywood is always reluctant to give up the mainland market. The huge population base and vigorous economic growth mean that there are huge business opportunities here.

Now, this pattern has finally been broken, and the first single region outside North America with $200 million box office was born!

Unexpected but reasonable, the mainland has become such a feat to complete the region“ "Gravity" with the perfect conditions of favorable weather, geography and people, break the shackles and write miracles!

In an instant, all the attention of the whole world has been focused. This is not only a record time for the mainland single market, but also a historical time for the overseas market. The congratulatory telegrams of the victory newspaper are flying like snowflakes. Such a grand occasion is even more lively than the strong rise and breakthrough of "Avatar".

This is not the end.

Furthermore, the cumulative total box office of "gravity" in the mainland has exceeded 300 million US dollars!

Even in North America, 300 million US dollars is the benchmark of excellent box office. Any work that can cross this threshold is worth celebrating by film companies; And now, such data has appeared in the overseas market, incredible! fantastic! miraculous! The whole Hollywood is boiling!

The cheers and exclamations of the mainstream news media in North America are even more crazy than those in the mainland. From the "New York Times" to the "Los Angeles Times", from the "Hollywood Reporter" to the "variety show", all the media carried out relevant reports at the first time, and those voluminous records let the exclamations burst out endlessly.

There is no doubt that this is a watershed!

It is not only the watershed of the mainland market itself, but also the watershed of the overseas market planning of major Hollywood film companies: the mainland market stands out instantly!

Everyone knows that this is a gold mountain silver mine. Wealth and interests are in front of us. But the question is, how should they tap those potentials? After continuous exploration, the first clue has finally emerged. From "Avatar" to "Iron Man 3" and then to "gravity", the mystery of the mainland film market has finally been revealed.

For laymen, they just watch the excitement; But experts can clearly feel that Hollywood has changed.

It's not just the earthquake caused by the drastic change of Warner Brothers' senior management, but the storm of the whole film industry. The six major film companies have held internal meetings to analyze the box office curve and market publicity of "gravity", and make adjustments to the next distribution plan. The proportion of the mainland market will rise sharply, Looking forward to the success of copying gravity.

Among them, "Langley hall" is undoubtedly an unavoidable goal.

From "tomorrow's edge" to "gravity", from North America to the mainland market, Langley is making history. Even Harrison Ford and Tom Cruise have not been able to make history before, reaching a new height!

If we say that the previous egot just let blue rite occupy a place in the performance hall, the industry's exclamation and praise are overwhelming, but it is still limited after all. After all, the commercial benefits of the award season can't be compared with the summer season; Now the box office burst curve, which makes Langley a key role in the entire film industry can not be ignored.

Is the success of "gravity" due to the excellence of the film itself or the market call of Langley“ What is the pattern of the glory of "gravity" and whether it can be copied or imitated? What role did Langley play in the whole process? What are the similarities and differences between this movie and "Avatar"?

In 2009, "Avatar" created a series of box office history, completely subverting people's understanding of the global box office, but all the credit fell to James Cameron. As a director, his role is irreplaceable and can not be ignored; As for the two stars, Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana have made breakthroughs in their careers, but they have not been able to make it to the top.

Now, what about gravity?

Obviously, as a director, Alfonso Caron has given the film a strong visual effect charm, which makes watching a movie a kind of enjoyment; As the leading actor, Langley hall endows the film with unparalleled unique temperament and forms a close relationship with the audience, which becomes the biggest reason for the audience to enter the cinema.

No one can ignore the big screen charm of lanli.

"Speed and passion 5", "crazy love", "anti-cancer me" and "tomorrow's edge", lanli showed his energy step by step in the box office market, and finally broke out in the work of "gravity". First, it broke the shackles of the autumn sales in North America, and then it broke the box office limit in the mainland market, It has completely changed the grand blueprint of the whole overseas market.

The name "Langley hall" has become a unique focus in Hollywood. Even the big six are no exception.

Naturally, Warner Bros. and Disney have cooperated with Langley in "gravity" and "interstellar crossing", and the following market planning can follow the trend; The latter cooperated with lanli in the "super Marine Corps" and is still seeking more cooperation. Whether it can copy the box office miracle of "gravity" has also become the focus of attention.

Sony classic, owned by Sony Columbia Pictures, has taken the lead. The copyright cooperation of "drunken ballad" and "pop drummer" has enabled them to take the lead successfully; Paramount and 20th century fox are also actively seeking cooperation, hoping to impress the actor with his works.

Universal Pictures was immediately embarrassed.

Yes, the "Jurassic Park" restart project and the "speed and passion" sequel project have not been able to negotiate. Universal Pictures has nodded to agree to the request of 20 million film remuneration plus 10% box office bonus, but Andy Rogers flatly refused. He has no intention to continue to increase the proportion of box office bonus, but questioned the sincerity of Universal Pictures' cooperation.

Even without the two key projects of Universal Pictures, there is absolutely no lack of cooperative projects in lanli. It is said that the projects that want to invite lanli to play have piled up, and many actors of innovative artists agency have benefited from it. Even if they are not the main actors, they can also get the chance to play supporting roles in lanli's works; What's more, they will get an audition in advance after lenley's refusal.

Now Andy has no time to worry about the bad mood of Lang Meyer and Thomas Toure. Even if they break up, Andy has absolutely no loss. Langley's retreat makes Thomas's aggressive look ridiculous. It's true that Langley is not the only actor in Hollywood; It is also true that universal pictures is not the only company in Hollywood.

Even if Lang Meyer and Thomas tour choose to cancel the cooperation now, the negative impact has already existed, and the subsequent stop loss action will not be too easy; What's more, Steven Spielberg and Frank Marshall have refused to comment on the casting, which is actually a kind of stance, and the positions of Ron Meyer and Thomas are more and more embarrassing.

At this moment, no one can predict the follow-up development of "Jurassic Park" and "speed and passion".

But the most important thing is that Andy didn't care at all about the reaction of Universal Pictures, which is no longer important. Now lanli has more work to do. Apart from the shooting of "star crossing", the overseas release of "gravity" is also in full swing, thanks to the box office boom in the mainland and North America, People's expectations of this work have begun to become very different——

Can gravity be the second avatar?

Up to now, "Avatar" is the only one whose overseas box office has exceeded 2 billion; In addition, there is only one "Titanic" whose overseas box office has exceeded one billion. Last year, the Avengers alliance was just a little short of $895 million. Now, does gravity have the potential to become the fourth movie to reach the box office of one billion overseas?

From the works of art in the award season to the commercial blockbusters that create history, gravity has completed its gorgeous turn in just two months after its release!
