Chapter 981: Ranked 4th in World Film Box Office History

When The Shawshank Redemption was first filmed in the United States, the enthusiasm of the fans had already surprised everyone. When it was promoted globally, everyone realized that the things in the news on the Internet were not groundless. This MOUSE really has a large number of die-hard fans. You can't feel any superstar aura in him when you are filming with him, but when he appears at the event, you will find that you are just a foil. Except for Will Smith, the rest of the people at the event have to prepare themselves before speaking. The atmosphere at the scene is not something that ordinary people can bear.

The last stop was in China. After getting off the plane, everyone realized that everything they had seen before was just child's play. Will Smith also felt that he used his incredible sentence too early. When you arrived at MOUSE's homeland, you will know how popular he is and how popular he is in China.

The number of people who came to the airport to pick up the plane was not the largest, but in terms of uniformity, other countries and regions simply could not compare. All of them were wearing white short-sleeved shirts. Before Chen Hao came out, these more than 200 people were able to be quiet and not make any noise. At the airport exit area, they opened up the normal exit channel and leaned against the wall to rest quietly until the flight arrival information appeared. These more than 200 people immediately stood in several rows, with girls in front and boys in the back. After Chen Hao and others came out, they not only greeted them, but also opened up a safe exit channel for the crew members who came out of the ordinary exit.

The media and some scattered tourists, when they see the stars, they will definitely rush up to take pictures. The order thing has basically no value and no binding force when it is aimed at an individual.

It was Will Smith's first time to walk out of the airport in a channel with fans on both sides. The security guards around him also felt incredible. In this case, the security guards should surround the artist and leave quickly under the congestion of fans, instead of now, they have no place to use their skills.

Everyone followed Chen Hao's example, strolling through the middle and greeting everyone warmly. All the crew members could feel that Chen Hao was obviously different when he returned home. There was no sense of urgency, and all he showed was the warmth of returning home. There were no fans here, but family members. The other party would not crowd or shout. They would just wave their hands and smile to greet the idols who passed by them. They would not ask for autographs or take photos. The most amazing thing was that among the more than 200 people, not many people took their phones to take pictures. Everyone really communicated with each other face to face. It felt so comfortable that Will Smith felt that he wanted to leave quickly. It was a very comfortable thing to greet them here, smile and communicate with each other.

When they got outside, they got in the car without stopping, and then went to the hotel in the city. On the airport highway, they saw a series of vehicles, which were almost uniformly catching up from behind.

Yes, slowly.

Because the speed of the car they were riding in also slowed down. This would never happen in other countries. Cars would leave at the fastest speed. When they arrived in China, everything changed.

Those cars did not deliberately stop around the crew's car. The cars here slowed down to about 50 miles per hour, and the fans' convoy also drove past the crew's car at a speed of more than 60 miles per hour. At this time, the enthusiasm of the fans could be seen.

The windows facing the crew's car were opened. Some held pennants and posters, and some waved their hands and cheered. Dozens of cars drove past the crew's car, and then the crew's car accelerated and passed them again. What can be seen is that these cars did not deliberately speed up to chase, and let the crew's car get into the traffic and disappear in front of them.

This scene is incredible to all practitioners in this industry. How can there be such obedient fans in this world? Even if they rehearsed in advance, they couldn't rehearse so well, right?

Chen Hao motioned Qiu Yu to take out his phone to show Will Smith. Qiu Yu was almost the administrator of the large group of the fan club. All the activities discussed by the backbone of the fan club yesterday were available in the group. He translated and explained to Will, who was amazed and kept giving Chen Hao a thumbs up, praising his fans as the best fans.

In the next few days, Will Smith witnessed a scene he called a miracle, which completely subverted his understanding of the word "fan". From Shanghai to Beijing, from the hotel to the event site, whether you think it was prepared in advance or there are really too many fans gathered together, these fans of Chen Hao always have extraordinary discipline. You can't understand why it is like this. There are no such fans in the world. Ask Chen Hao, no one in his team deliberately organizes such things. Everything is spontaneous by fans. The final conclusion is very simple-personal charm is so strong that a considerable number of fans are willing to guess your thoughts and act according to your habits.

Throughout February, the global film market ended with the bombardment of "The Shawshank Redemption". Chen Hao, who had completed all the promotional activities, was finally able to take a break and start dealing with various big data every day. Qiu Yu would deliver reports to the coffee table in his living room. A considerable part of the numbers he saw every day would soon be converted into numbers added to his bank card.

No one in the world mentioned that Chen Hao took the idea of ​​"Prison Break" and wrote a script to make a movie. The reshoot plan that FOX had hyped up before was shelved directly, and the third season was shelved indefinitely. They dared not hype Chen Hao at all. Now they hope that no one will mention this matter, otherwise they will definitely criticize "Prison Break" and FOX. Without the basis for hype, there is no need to make a complete change in the third season. Even if it makes a small profit, it is easy to be swallowed by a large number of negative comments.

"The Shawshank Redemption" has a North American box office of 510 million US dollars, a Chinese box office of 6 billion RMB, and a global total box office of 1.83 billion. It ranks fourth in the world's film history and first in the Chinese film history. It has created a miracle belonging to Chen Hao. Before it was released, no one would have thought that this film could get so much box office. The most terrifying thing is not the box office, but the word of mouth from the audience.

The Star Wars series is a representative work of special effects action movies and science fiction themes in the entire film history. It is a movie IP that is so large that it can become an industry on its own.

"Titanic", a beautiful love story, has a great reputation. Although it is mostly a literary drama, the huge shipwreck scene is a model of special effects films.

"Avatar" is even more needless to say. It has specially opened up a genre and a brand-new viewing experience. It is understandable that its box office ranks first in film history.

Why can a movie without any special effects and even without beauties get such a high box office?

Saying that this movie is great, saying that it is a clear stream in the history of film, and countless practitioners praise it, these are understandable, and we all agree, but the box office is really unimaginable. Even if the horrible box office of China is deducted, the box office of this movie is enough to shock people.

Some people who are willing to create topic news have thrown out another news topic that has attracted many people to discuss.

"The Shawshank Redemption will participate in Cannes and the Oscars next year. How many awards do you think it can win? What will be the effect of repeated screenings after winning the awards?"

After the fermentation of the release, almost no one now thinks that this film will be absent from the Oscars next year. What is uncertain is whether it can win the grand prize. The Cannes awards in May this year will be a weather vane. If it really wins the award in Cannes, perhaps the Oscars will close the door to it. But even so, after winning the award in Cannes, it will definitely be re-released in Europe. With the support of China and Asia, it is conceivable that its box office will increase.

Many American audiences don't really want the box office of The Shawshank Redemption to increase again. The fourth place is amazing enough. If it really kills the second and third places, many people will feel embarrassed.

The gap is not as big as imagined. Even if you say that the North American box office is not high and the overseas box office is high, it is not enough to suppress the total global box office data.

A movie that makes people famous.

Many people position Chen Hao in the world film and television industry with these four words.

One movie has astonished the whole world. The whole world has seen his strength. From the intensity and power of the whole story, from the level of directing, from the skills of acting, and even to the publicity before and after the whole movie, they are all master-level. Each one is worth studying and analyzing by peers.

This is also a movie that does not need to distinguish Western culture. Maybe on the surface, it is an American background with American characteristics. Parole and life after parole are typical local cultures. When you see the essence through the appearance, you will know that this movie can resonate among the audience when it is released in more than half of the countries in the world. This is enough. Any so-called professional theory is pale and powerless. Reality will tell you what is the most powerful answer.

It is difficult for Chen Hao to be as comfortable as before after his rest. When music set off a craze in the world before, the economic benefits brought by the resurgence of music were still lacking. This time is different. The value that can be created by the movie box office alone is close to 10 billion. With the popularity of this movie, the future sales of video tape copyrights in various countries will also be a huge profit. Fortunately, there are not many areas that can be developed around this film, otherwise a lot of people would be jealous to death.
