Chapter 1426 Crazy December

During the most lively and competitive Christmas season, "The Three-Body Problem" was released for less than 20 days and quietly withdrew due to the demand for a large number of screenings. The movies released during the same period or even a few days later were called "withdrawn sadly". It was a successful gesture, strongly raking in more than 3 billion US dollars in box office worldwide, making the top two seats on the world movie box office list all taken by Chen Hao.

The North American box office was 780 million US dollars.

The Chinese box office was 4.9 billion Chinese yuan.

In addition to the two major box office production areas, the film also received an inaccurate data of 1.5 billion US dollars in box office in other countries and regions around the world.

In the face of such box office results, the reputation is not inferior at all, and even has a tendency to surpass to some extent.

The ratings on the Internet are around 9 points out of 10, and many well-known film critics have also given good reviews. There are hundreds of excellent film review articles on the Internet, which are used by Haomen's fans to cover the entire network.

Any good reputation is an intangible product. The good reputation of the movie "The Three-Body Problem" has been reflected in tangible things. The novel "The Three-Body Problem" has another big rhythm offline. In addition to the Chinese translation and the English translation, several other language versions have been released. In just a few days, the global sales have exceeded one million copies again. Those who have not bought or read the novel before were attracted by the first movie and became curious about the subsequent plot. They either bought the novel as soon as possible or paid to watch it online.

The online novels of the "Three-Body Problem" novel in multiple languages ​​have signed profit-sharing agreements with various countries, all of which have reached an 80-20 ratio. Chen Hao has a monopoly on the majority. He has always been a strong platform, but now he has to bow his head. One or two sales platforms in one country are enough. If you don't sign, there are platforms waiting to sign.

In such an era of explosive online information consultation, physical novels can still have such a sales scale, which is definitely a subversive achievement. Too many people find it incredible. It is hard to imagine what kind of magic it has?

Word of mouth, the most terrible thing about word of mouth is that it attracts more people who are not interested to become curious. Once curiosity arises, it will not be long before you become attached to this novel and movie. Novel fans and movie fans have confidence that once you like this novel, you will be fascinated by it. This is a good work that truly combines science fiction and humanities. Everything you see is a brand new science fiction setting, but behind this science fiction coat is a display of Chinese history. The stories between the Three-Body Civilization and the Earth Civilization in the novel, if you carefully observe the history of China or the Earth, you will find that there are many similarities.

When reading science fiction and history, how many literary feelings are put aside? The Three-Body Problem movie has become a thing of the past. The Three-Body Problem novel can still meet your needs. After reading the novel, go and watch Chen Hao's other works. The latest ones are "Wu" and "Legend of the Galactic Heroes: Heroes of the Galaxy" which was released during the golden period of Christmas. In the past, there were also master-level works such as "The Shawshank Redemption" and "Forrest Gump". These works are enough for you to watch them all at once, and then you will like this gradually mature man, be willing to become his fan, and be willing to wait for his new works in the future.

The Three-Body Problem was a big hit at the box office, and Wushu was not far behind. Although it suffered from the influence of its own people in the second weekend of its release, the number of screenings and attention decreased, but it still got 530 million in North America and 3.9 billion in China. The final results will not be worse than the Three-Body Problem. It’s just that there are differences in the regions where the two are liked. The Three-Body Problem is more popular in European, American and African countries, while Wushu’s influence in Africa and Europe is slightly worse. However, in China, the audience prefers the latter more. Some people do think that the story of the Three-Body Problem is too large, and science fiction is not their cup of tea, so they have fewer requirements for Wushu. Those scenes that once ran through the deep memories of Chinese audiences were more realistically paid tribute in this film. These shots alone are enough to conquer Chinese audiences.

"When you are arguing about which one is more successful, have you forgotten whose works they are? No matter who wins, isn't it Chen Hao who is successful? Are all those astronomical box office figures earned by him and the company behind him?"

"Don't worry, wait for "Galaxy 2" to come, and we will go even crazier."

"Those data experts, please act quickly and calculate for us how much money Mr. Chen can make this year?"

Red Dot and Joyy are happy to support Chen Hao. First of all, he has enough social status to ensure that no matter how much money he makes, it will not attract the attention of some scoundrels. The main reason is that these people are not qualified to pay attention to him. Furthermore, publishing his income from the movie is also a stimulating way of publicity. Many film companies joked: "You got Chen Hao, don't be stingy and think that the money you gave him is too much. You have him, which means you don't have to pay for publicity. He is the best tool for publicity and has its own publicity attributes."

With the little data that the two major companies are willing to take out for analysis, those data analysis experts came out one after another and listed Chen Hao's work for the whole year, including the endorsement contracts signed before, the endorsement fees given by Coca-Cola, how much you can earn this year, and your various income from concerts; income from movies and TV series; income from various copyrights...

At the same time, with the star's tax return always being a hot topic, the two major companies and Chen Hao's personal financial team took the initiative to go to the relevant departments to file his personal tax return under the spotlight, not only in China, but also abroad. The huge financial team plays the most dazzling role at this moment.

In order to avoid some rumors, the financial team abroad will also make announcements with relevant departments, and produce a detailed list of tax reduction policies in some states, or some tax exemption data on charitable behaviors obtained by Chen Hao, the company, and the crew.

In China, there is no such detailed list, and no public statement that I don't want any tax exemption policy. I do charity purely for charity. Most people in China don't know that there will be some tax reduction and tax exemption policies for charitable donations from large companies and entrepreneurs. Chen Hao will not be the villain and smear the charitable faces of all people and companies. I won't say anything, I will just file and pay taxes according to my income, so that those black fans will have nothing to say, and all the data will be thrown on the table for you, and the relevant departments are willing to cooperate in this way to publicly confirm these data.

I, Chen Hao, am the biggest entertainment star in the country. I am the most watched person. So I am not doing this to embarrass all my peers. I have no intention of revealing anything. Now there are too many people who want to find dirt on me. I must make this matter clear for everyone to see. I can only say sorry for letting you be implicated. Sooner or later, no one can escape this kind of thing. It will only benefit a lot if it is made public early.

The data came out one after another, and there were surprised voices on the Internet. Chen Hao paid nine figures for personal income tax alone this year. The taxes paid in the United States are even higher. In terms of personal taxation, Chen Hao is definitely a celebrity taxpayer.

People haven't taken these data seriously yet. Although there is only one week left this year, the next blockbuster "Galaxy 2" is about to land. According to the current situation, as long as it follows the routine of "Galaxy 1", even if it can't get 6 billion box office, it won't be much different. Everyone knows that as long as "Three-Body" and "Wu" are successful, Chen Hao will have succeeded in this year's Christmas season. No matter how big the movie is, it can't compete with the screening volume of "Galaxy 2" at this moment. The previous two movies can be suppressed in publicity and scheduling. It can be said without dispute that "Galaxy 2" is currently the world's biggest movie brand. As long as its second movie is successful, it will be the world's largest series of movie IPs. In the future, it can also derive countless additional industries. Whoever can become the investor of the "Galaxy" series is destined to make a lot of money in it.

The conventional suppression also completely dissipated on Christmas Day. Chen Hao did not hold a large premiere of "Galaxy 2". The main creative staff quietly booked a theater in Los Angeles and invited some friends and media to watch.

During the Christmas season, the number of films that can get more than 50% of the screening share on Christmas Day is not more than a handful, not only in the North American market, but also in the Chinese market. It is really impossible to give up. Fortunately, Huya has already informed major theaters and major film companies that their family, "Galaxy 2", will never get more than 50% of the screening share on Chinese soil.

This promise directly shows the attitude. Even if you curse Chen Hao and Huya in private, you have to respect Mr. Chen on the surface. He is worthy of the title of the banner of Chinese films. In the best period, there is still enough share for everyone, and it is obvious that during the Spring Festival period, domestic big productions or works that are confident, you don’t need to worry about meeting Mr. Chen.

Throughout December, half of the news reported by the entertainment industry media around the world was monopolized by Chen Hao. Every day when you click on the entertainment news, whether it is international or domestic, you can’t avoid the two words Chen Hao. His works really set too many records.

The three films were released in December, all of which were painstakingly made. If it were other directors, they would be happy if they could produce one in a year. He shot several films in a year, and concentrated the three best films in one month to bombard the world film market. "Wu" is still in theaters, and his two works have already earned more than 5 billion US dollars in global box office. This data is so scary that it is likely that an actor in the 20 million club will not have so much box office in his lifetime.

And this is just the box office performance of Chen Hao's one and a half films. Will the next "Galaxy 2" sweep the world like last year? One data shows that at least in terms of expectations, it is absolutely sweeping the world - the advance tickets for the premiere, which can be counted in the cinemas, have been basically sold out a few days before the premiere.

After this data was taken out, people felt fainted. It was too incredible to believe it was true. Many media saw this number and interviewed Chen Hao on Christmas Eve, hoping that he would give some response to this crazy data.

"I just want to say, Merry Christmas to everyone. Christmas is coming in three hours and my movie will be released soon, but at this moment, do you know what I care more about?"

The media and fans around shouted together: "Di..."

Yes, the wife of the king has not arrived in the United States. As one of the main actors of "Galaxy 2", she and several main actors took the same flight and appeared here at the last minute to attend the internal "premiere" with all the main creators. More importantly, this year's Christmas, the two of them will spend it here together, and the program has been arranged. According to Chinese actors such as Tony Leung, this time Haozi definitely forgot about friends for the beauty, and didn't care about other people, just enjoying the world of two with his wife.

They are miserable, but they have to work alone in a foreign country on a carnival holiday like Christmas...

"Director, we want a Christmas dinner. We know you have a big villa in Los Angeles. Why don't you invite us to your house to spend Christmas together? We protest!"

During the countdown to the release of the movie, there was not much worry and anxiety in the crew. It seemed that no one was worried about whether the movie would be successful. In comparison, everyone was more looking forward to how to spend Christmas tomorrow.

This attitude is enough to show their confidence in the movie. We just need to see how this movie will sweep the world, and there is no need to worry about its failure.

It's almost time. All the main creative staff gathered together to go to the "premiere". There was no more ceremony in the spacious screening room, but there was enough space for the media. You can interview here as much as you want. The time before the official premiere belongs to the main creative staff and the media. Let's talk about the movie. You can get the answers to everything you want to know today. You can report as much as you want tomorrow morning. If you don't report now, you won't have space to report after tomorrow. All the space will be occupied by the success of this film and the news that Mr. Chen's three works have successfully swept the global box office in December.

All the main creative staff didn't know that at this moment, at the port of Los Angeles, an ocean-going sightseeing cruise ship was ready to go. A group of people who came here quietly boarded the ship quietly, waiting to welcome the last part of the "special Christmas party" as the host.
