499: Different (1)
The wedding has basically been arranged, and some relatives and friends have already arrived in Hainan.
Tonight, Django booked a movie at a movie theater near the hotel to watch "I Am Legend" together.
However, there were not many people, and the small hall was not full.
"'The Expendables' has become a hit in North America and other overseas regions, ranking first in the box office history of non-local films in many countries." Chen Qian said excitedly.
"It's reasonable for this luxurious lineup to explode." Jiang Ge said with a smile.
"US$300 million in North America, US$400 million overseas, and US$300 million domestically, totaling US$800 million, which is a huge profit." Chen Qian reported the box office.
It is indeed worthy of joy. This is the first movie whose domestic box office is not as large as that of other regions in North America and overseas. It has taken another important step to enter the overseas market.
The domestic box office did not exceed 2 billion, mainly due to the poor performance at the end of November. After the National Day, the national box office market was extremely sluggish.
Overall, the performance is good. Many media, film critics, and audiences at home and abroad have given very high evaluations. It is said that the real texture of the film has re-created and revived the "Hollywood blood" of the past, which can be called the 21st century. A classic of world action movies since then.
"By the way, apart from "I Am Legend" which was released today and "Fast and Furious Episode 2" which has not yet been released, are there any overseas movies?" Chen Qian asked.
"No more." Django replied.
"Are there any follow-up arrangements?" Chen Qian asked again.
"No, next year..." Django told him about his plan for a nationwide tour.
"That's good!" Chen Qian's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he rubbed his hands and said, "It's been four or five years, and Chen Yi and Shi Yue haven't held a concert. I'm afraid the fans will be happy if they know the news. Crazy.”
Fans naturally want to see their favorite singers perform in concert, because the feeling of listening to songs is completely different from listening to a concert. Not only can you see your idol up close, but you can also interact with all the audience at the concert. This feeling cannot be compared to watching a video.
Why are many singers keen on holding concerts? First, they love singing, and concerts are a kind of enjoyment. Second, this method is a way of showing love and feedback to their fans. Third, concerts generally bring considerable income.
As for Django, there is one more thing to add, that is, he wants to take a long vacation.
Don't look at the fact that scripts and songs are redeemed from the system mall. It seems simple, but to ensure quality, many things need to be done personally.
Even if you really like this industry, you still have to balance work and rest.
Of course, this holiday does not mean that Huafeng Media has stopped operations, such as "White Nights" Season 2, "Detective Chinatown 3", "A Chinese Ghost Story 3: Tao Tao Tao", "The Deer and the Cauldron: The Dragon Cult", "The Great Sage" Movies and TV series like "Return" are all in preparation.
After chatting for a while, the movie started.
[Human medicine invented a drug that can cure cancer. Unexpectedly, the virus mutated and turned infected humans into zombies. Then the virus broke out on a large scale and spread at an unstoppable speed.
Robert is a pathogenologist in New York City. The airborne virus soon enveloped the entire city, so the president ordered a blockade of Long Island so that no one who was infected could leave.
Everyone was in chaos. Robert sent his wife Zoe and daughter Mary on a helicopter out of the city, but saw them die in a plane crash before his eyes.
And New York quickly turned into a dead city, and those infected humans turned into terrifying zombies. They had an absolute thirst for fresh blood and lived in the darkness underground in the city to avoid the sun...]
The beginning of "I Am Legend" is very conventional. Like other zombie movies, it is a disease caused by a certain virus. Zombies bite living people when they see them. Whenever a living person is bitten, the virus will spread, and then they will die soon. Change.
seem……
Nothing new.
["My name is Robert Neff, I am a survivor of New York..."
"I will be at South Street Bay every day at noon and if anyone can hear me, I can provide food and shelter and keep you safe..."
"If anyone can still hear it, you're not alone!"
...]
The camera focused on Robert, played by Hancock, the only survivor in New York City. For more than 40 minutes, he showed the audience the life of a "normal person" alone.
He tried to preserve the collapsed civilization, exercised, hunted, played golf, and watched DVDs. He constantly used medium waves to communicate with the outside world every day, trying to find other survivors. At the same time, he also hoped to develop an immune serum to rescue those who mutated into "night "Devil" humans.
And his "normality" has become the reason for the night demons to hunt him. The moment the sun sets, all loneliness and helplessness will hit him from all directions.
[That afternoon, Robert accidentally hit a trap in the city and was suspended in the air by a rope. His head hit the ground heavily and he fell into a coma.
His loyal companion Sam, a German shepherd, stands guard.
The sun sets in the west and the sky gradually darkens.
Robert woke up from the barking dogs. He glanced at the watch on his wrist and the sunset between the two floors. He suddenly realized the seriousness of the situation and quickly took out a dagger from his pocket to cut the rope. However, when he fell, he was stabbed by his own dagger. Into the thigh.
Seeing that the sunlight was about to disappear, he dragged his injured body to the car behind him.
After climbing for a while, several dog barks suddenly came from the building opposite. 】
Honestly speaking, the audience felt that the movie was a bit boring at first, because there was only one person and one dog, and there was no ups and downs in the plot.
Gradually, they found that the essence of "I Am Legend" was that the deadly virus unfortunately spread all over the world, 90% of the population disappeared forever from the earth, only 1% of the population had immunity, and the remaining 9% became night demons. Since then, the law of human survival has become simpler. There is no country or politics, only hunting and being hunted, and here is a man who wants to fight against the whole world.
At these times, they can feel that Robert exists as a living person in this world that has changed, and all the seemingly free is based on extremely painful losses.
When it comes to the first ups and downs of the plot of this film, the audience stared at the big screen intently. They have long been integrated into the plot, and their hearts are tightened.
"Will he be okay?"
"Probably not. There's a ray of sunlight blocking the building. Night Demon is afraid of light."
"Yes, just get back to the car as soon as possible."
"He's racing against time."
"It makes me nervous."
"Me too."
