Chapter 473： one person stage

Due to the strong rise of "The Fellowship of the Ring", everyone dared not face Zhang Dongcheng's majestic presence. Other super blockbuster movies that were originally expected to make a fortune avoided the two-week schedule.

Only some unlucky small productions were scheduled to PK with Zhang Dongcheng, and these small productions were crushed by the super warship of the Guardian of the Ring without exception, leaving only dilapidated wreckage , and the grief of these small producers, directors, editors and investors.

There is no way, the cinema is the battlefield, and no one can blame Zhang Dongcheng for being abandoned by the bayonet war.

Facing the super stats of The Fellowship of the Ring breaking 100 million in two days, the box office revenue of the second place is less than 10 million US dollars.

There is a Rotten Tomatoes website in the United States, which was founded in 1998. In 1999, it received US$1.1 million in angel investment from Dongcheng Group, and gradually became a movie review website that competed with IMDB.

Rotten Tomatoes staff scours websites for specific movie or game reviews, whether amateur or professional. Once scoured, workers use aggregate data to decide whether reviews are positive (“fresh,” marked with a bright red tomato) or negative (“rotten,” marked with a green smash rotten tomatoes as a marker).

Of course, the more fresh it is, the more you like it.

On Rotten Tomatoes, a professional film review website, 98% of people expressed their great liking for The Fellowship of the Ring. Countless people commented frantically and the number skyrocketed. Due to the large number of viewers, the server of Rotten Tomatoes went down for the first time ever!

Sweep everything!

All of this comes from Zhang Dongcheng's unremitting efforts, from Scarlett's peerless and beautiful face, from Tolkien's epic magical masterpiece and the readers and book fans accumulated over decades.

The box office of "The Fellowship of the Ring" rose again and again, making movie theater owners laugh so hard that they couldn't stop laughing. Everyone was surprised to break through 100 million US dollars in box office just two days after its release. A new level!

Knowing that "The Fellowship of the Ring" will be a hit, I didn't expect it to be such a hit!

The audience went crazy, and so did the media. Fortunately, Zhang Dongcheng was self-aware, turned off his mobile phone early, and peacefully stayed with the girls, enjoying the happy time.

""The Fellowship of the Ring" won the weekend championship easily without encountering the slightest resistance. At this time, no movie can stop its desire to fly. Although the achievements of Director Smith Zhang are unprecedented, they are also reasonable. Medium!" The Los Angeles News and Entertainment News, which has a good relationship with Zhang Dongcheng, sang praises as always, and they commented: "According to the end-of-show data released by the theater chain, the audience of "The Fellowship of the Ring" is extremely wide, and 25% of the audience are under the age of 25. , the backbone is the audience aged 25-55, and this type of audience accounts for 650% of the audience, which fully shows that Smith Zhang is a director who is loved by audiences of all walks of life, God, there has never been a director who can We're blown away by Smith-Chang's reach into so many genres!"

From now on, I declare that Smith Zhang, It's my favorite, Scarlett, and it's also my favorite!" Regular audience Brown commented on the official website of "The Fellowship of the Ring".

He represents the voice of many people.

The box office continues to skyrocket!

In the second week of the premiere, on July 7, the total box office successfully broke through the 200 million US dollars mark, and the momentum was unstoppable. For the whole week, no film company dared to confront Zhang Dongcheng's Fellowship of the Ring with its blockbuster head-on. American movie theaters have become a stage for Zhang Dongcheng alone, just let him dance wildly alone, have a good time!

In the third week, this extremely powerful money-absorbing force was curbed, with an income of 82.89 million US dollars, and the total box office exceeded 300 million US dollars.

Finally someone dared to stand up and launched a lowly challenge to The Fellowship of the Ring, whose popularity could not resist the drop after the continuous broadcast for two weeks and half a month.

That was the disaster movie "The Perfect Storm" released by Warner Bros., starring George Clooney, with Industrial Light & Magic in charge of special effects production, and a total investment of 140 million US dollars. Fighting with the Fellowship of the Ring, but quickly lost, ranked second in its opening week, earning 66 million US dollars.

For a moment, all the entertainment media focused on this amazing movie. At this moment, the number of registrations on the official website of "The Fellowship of the Ring" exceeded one million, and the number of movie reviews exceeded two million!

When American journalists are looking for Zhang Dongcheng but can’t find them, and when teenagers all over America are obsessed with the fairy princess Scarlett, what are they doing?

"Aha, I'm confused! Adaman, you lost! Hurry up, hurry up, lose money!" Zhang Dongcheng kept making gestures asking for money, and the big cigar in his mouth burst out. cigarette.

"FUCK, let's shoot again!" Adaman looked helplessly at Dongfeng, who was caught by Zhang Dongcheng, his eyes were rounded, he scratched his nose, and said unwillingly, and then took out a large handful of colorful banknotes and handed them to Zhang Dongcheng.

"All three of us lost, and Smith made money alone! SHIT, it's not fair, how can you pull us to play Chinese mahjong? How have we ever played? Oh God, I lost a hundred thousand dollars in one hour!" Nicholas Cage pushed the mahjong tiles in front of him, and said in an unhappy way.

"That's right, we've only studied optics for three days, how can we beat someone from the mahjong country like you!" Brad Pitt also raised his hands in surrender, expressing that he would never dare to play mahjong with Zhang Dongcheng again.

"Haha, that's fine, you can play whatever you want, and I will accompany you to the end." Zhang Dongcheng took the money and said with a smile.

It took three days to set up the game and earned these three guys over $300,000, which is really cool!

If anyone knows that this super director, who is slowly being called the superstar director of Hollywood, who does not earn hundreds of millions of dollars in a movie, is Zhang Dongcheng, who has failed extremely, spent three days here to calculate Three Yankees who don't know how to play mahjong cost more than 300,000 US dollars. It is estimated that each of them will roll their eyes and scold Zhang Dongcheng for not doing his job properly.

Fortunately, these three guys followed him and earned tens of millions in the past few years, especially Adaman, who owns the shares of Dongcheng Entertainment Group. From a poor black boy, he followed Zhang Dongcheng from England to the United States unswervingly. With a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars, of course he wouldn't take hundreds of thousands of dollars seriously. He was just arguing with Zhang Dongcheng at the moment.

Nicolas Cage is different, he has made up his mind to join Zhang Dongcheng, and he even agrees with both hands and feet to become Zhang Dongcheng's queen actor.

There is no other reason. Nicolas Cage is not stupid. On the contrary, he is very smart. He discovered that after the last financial crisis, Zhang Dongcheng also became interested in finance and economics. , although it is far worse than making hundreds of millions of dollars casually by making a movie, but it is better than Nicholas Cage investing blindly, investing indiscriminately, or even losing money to his grandma's house to make ends meet. too much.

Following Zhang Dongcheng, although there may be fewer films, but the money earned will be several times more! Rest every day and go to work occasionally, but you can live a life of debauchery, even a Hollywood actor can't refuse.

So, taking advantage of his home being right next to Zhang Dongcheng’s mansion, Nicholas would come here for dinner whenever he had something to do, lick his face every day to chat with Zhang Dongcheng, or go fishing on a yacht.

But let alone that Nicholas Cage treats Zhang Dongcheng as a beauty. He is bold, careful and thick-skinned, and his stalking strategy is quite effective. The distance between friends began to develop towards best friends.

And Brad Pitt was simply called by Adaman and Nicolas Cage to make up his feet. After living here for a few days, he almost lost his pants.

But Zhang Dongcheng is a winner in life, and he doesn't care whether Brad Pitt has money, so he just handed over a million dollars to him and let him play as he pleases.

Anyway, if you lose, it’s not your own money, but if you win, you can take it away. Where can such a good thing be found? Brad Pitt happened to be on a break right now, so naturally he lingered at Zhang Dongcheng's mansion.

"Let's play Texas Hold'em, everyone knows it, East and West take it all, it's the most fair! Hehe!" Adaman showed his big white teeth, and took out a deck of playing cards in his hand as if conjuring.

"Agreed!" Brad Pitt was secretly pleased, Texas Hold'em is his strong point, so he quickly agreed to accept it.

"Haha, Smith, as long as you dare to bet, I promise you will spit back all the money you win!" Nicholas Cage was also very excited. This Texas Hold'em has become popular all over the world since the United States, so he is naturally not bad at playing it. Having this self-confidence made Zhang Dongcheng deflated.

"Three-to-one, Smith, you don't need to express your opinion, democracy, democracy!" Adaman hurriedly put away the mahjong tiles, shuffled the playing cards on the table, and then slammed the cards on the table!

"Hahaha! Let the director of the gambling king open his eyes today, what is the real gambling skills!" Nicolas Cage laughed strangely, and then grabbed the cards..

An hour later, Zhang Dongcheng looked at the three mournful faces and said helplessly, "Hey, are you going to follow me or not? Let me tell you, I have a straight son?"
