Rhapsody of Entertainment Rebirth

"Gravity" landed in Europe and East Asia on November 21 with shock and sensation in China and the United States.

"Gravity" has received various exclamations and praises on the Internet, making movie fans around the world eagerly awaiting it.

3DIMAX movies have become the most discussed topic on the Internet recently.

Shanhe’s influence in Europe is not as high as in China and the United States, but it is not weak either.

The nickname "Raphael of the East" is widely circulated. The accumulation of novels and movies over the years has given him a certain fan base in Europe.

Half a year of 3DIMAX hype has made "Gravity" and "Avatar" almost unknown in Europe.

There are numerous media reports on "Gravity" from various countries, and with Disney's release promotion, the box office opening in Europe is worth looking forward to.

Compared with Europe and the United States, East Asian countries pay more attention to and discuss "Gravity" more intensely.

"Gravity" is the first truly Asian international production.

Neon, Bangguo, and Hong Kong Island have also had the experience of cooperating with Hollywood to shoot movies.

However, most of them are historical movies and action movies, such as "The Last Samurai" or Jackie Chan's action movies.

These films are all niche genres in the global film market. Even with the addition of Tom Cruise and Jackie Chan, they still have not caused much of a stir in the global film market.

The earth-shattering stories of Mountains and Rivers and "Gravity" can open the eyes of all East Asians.

For nearly a hundred years, Westerners have been leading the development trend of the world, while the entire East has been struggling to move forward following the footsteps of others.

Whether it is Neon, Bangguo, or Hong Kong and Taiwan, they all have extremely contradictory and complicated feelings about the West.

They had been ruled by Westerners and inevitably had the inertia of admiration for Western culture. However, the innate sense of identity in race and nation made them try their best to get rid of this state.

This sentiment is particularly evident in the film market.

Hollywood movies are raging in East Asia. While they are pursuing helplessly, they are all trying to revitalize their own film industries, but they have never achieved particularly eye-catching results.

Neon's Akira Kurosawa, Hayao Miyazaki, and Hong Kong's Jackie Chan have all achieved brilliance in their respective fields, but there is still a big gap in the sensation and influence they caused.

Shanhe's "Gravity" perfectly met the expectations of East Asian countries.

Major investments in mainstream science fiction blockbusters were produced using cutting-edge film shooting technology, ushering in a new era of movies. The core writers and directors were Orientals, and this Oriental has a huge influence around the world.

This time, he faced Cameron, the king of Hollywood directors, alone. Judging from the situation, he was not at a disadvantage!

This is a first for the Eastern film culture industry.

Since "Gravity" and "Avatar" appeared to compete for the schedule, the attention this movie has attracted throughout East Asia has been phenomenal.

The first-day event caused by the movie in China and the United States can be seen everywhere in these four East Asian countries and regions.

Needless to say, Hong Kong and Taiwan media are also proud of Shanhe and "Gravity", so it is only their duty to report them extensively.

Neon and Bangkok media are also on the rise, and several of the most influential media outlets in the two countries have written articles commenting on Shanhe's groundbreaking feat.

The Asahi Shimbun published an article on its front page titled "Shock from the East."

"Hua Xiaqiu once again made a sensation in the West with "Gravity". This time he did not use the story of M country, but cutting-edge special effects production. This is more exciting than "Dallas Buyers Club" because he does not Then he uses Western stories to shock the West, but he uses the future of the East...

Neon also has cutting-edge technology, but who will tell the story of our future? "

The headline of Korea's Chosun Ilbo is "When will we have our own magician?" 》.

"Hua Xiaqiu once again shocked the Western world with his movies, from "Parasite" to "Dallas Buyers Club" and now "Gravity". His magician is famous all over the world, and our country's magicians are famous all over the world. Where, what we need is cultural influence, not superficial idols jumping around..."

On November 21st, "Gravity" ushered in its first day of harvesting the global box office.

The next day, the explosive box office performance of "Gravity" shocked the world. Shanhe once again subverted the global public's perception of movies.

All major Hollywood productions in the past were crushed by "Gravity". All six major Hollywood productions unanimously lamented: The potential of global movie box office can be so high!

North America exceeded 40 million US dollars, 40.5 million US dollars, a sharp increase of 8 million US dollars from the first day.

China broke through 80 million yuan, 81.6 million yuan! Having crossed the 80 million threshold, what China lacks is not audiences, but cinemas and 3D screens.

Neon's first-day sales exceeded 900 million yen and 950 million yen, breaking the foreign language film record held by "Titanic" for more than 20 years. It has an excellent reputation and tickets for the 3D version of the movie are also hard to get.

Bang Country is even more exaggerated. On the first day, nearly 250,000 people went to the cinema to watch "Gravity". You must know that Bang Country only has a thousand theaters in total.

Hong Kong and Taiwan have broken their respective first-day box office records.

What surprised Shanhe the most was the first-day box office sales in various European countries. Not only did they top the box office rankings in various countries, but they were also much larger than expected.

Britain received 6.1 million US dollars, France received 8.7 million US dollars, Germany received 6.9 million US dollars, and Italy received 4.8 million US dollars. The most surprising thing was Russia, which actually received 9 million US dollars on the first day.

Including other European countries, the first-day box office in Europe exceeded 55 million US dollars, which was more than 10 million US dollars more than in North America.

On the second day of its global release, "Gravity" grossed over 100 million US dollars in a single day, reaching US$11.7 billion.

Horrible numbers!

This was back in 2009. "Harry Potter: The Half-Blood Prince", which currently ranked first at the box office this year, had a global box office of only 900 million US dollars.

"Transformers 2", which was a huge hit in China, only had 860 million.

And "Gravity" only took two days to accumulate a box office of 160 million US dollars.

You know, this is just the first day of large-scale global release.

As soon as the data came out, global media frantically reported the news.

"The box office of "Gravity" exceeded 100 million in a single day, and it is a foregone conclusion that the total box office will exceed one billion US dollars. The magician's target is "Titanic". "Avatar" has not been released yet, and Cameron is challenged!" - " Los Angeles Daily News

"English exceeded 6 million on the first day, and the whole of Europe was crazy about "Gravity." On the first day, 55 million, we seem to have seen that big ship again..." - "The Times"

""Gravity" detonated all over Russia, with overcrowded cinemas. The box office on the first day exceeded 800 million rubles, setting a new record. "Stalingrad" was defeated by Huaxia Qiu, and the single-day global box office of "Gravity" was nearly 120 million rubles. 10,000 US dollars, breathtaking space movie..." - "Russian Gazette"

""Gravity" broke the 22-year box office record of "Titanic", with a global box office of 11.7 billion in a single day. Only Huaxia Qiu can rival Cameron, and Neon Renren's "Gravity" I am willing to queue up all night just to experience the ultimate enjoyment of the 3DIMAX screen..." - "Asahi Shimbun"

"US$11.7 billion! One day! Shanhe's new film "Gravity" has taken the world by storm. Hong Kong's first day of HK$13 million still broke the record..." - "Hong Kong Island Wen Wei Po"

"The film "Gravity" written and directed by my country's famous young writer and director Qiu Shanhe, exceeded 800 million yuan in box office in a single day yesterday. This is a new milestone for Chinese-language films and opens up a bright future for Chinese-language films..."—— "Dazhong Daily"

…

Reports from various media instantly ignited movie fans around the world, and everything about "Gravity" became a hot topic of public discussion.

Names and related words such as Shanhe, Gravity, Gong Li, Day Lewis, 3DIMAX movies, etc. have become the focus of Internet searches.

As soon as the news came out, public opinion in China started to erupt. The entire Internet was laughing at "Gravity", celebrating Chinese-language movies, and feeling proud of the country.

All online portals and platforms have posted the figures "81.6 million" and "11.7 billion" on their homepages and put up banners for them.

Netizens were collectively shocked by the news and immediately raised their heads and shouted.

"Eighty million a day! Is it just a job that humans can do?"

"One billion US dollars as the bottom line! It seems that Shanhe is talking about one billion US dollars as the bottom line!"

"This time we are proud of ourselves, who else can we do?"

"Sweeping over everything! It's so exciting!"

"This is the spirit of us Chinese people. Shanhe is worthy of being the national idol!"

…

The entire Chinese film and television industry was confused by the incredible box office figures of "Gravity".

800 million a day!

What about that week?

Is this something that Chinese-language movies can do?

Hollywood is not so arrogant!

The future of Chuhe Film and Television is limitless, hurry up and wait until you get there!

Look at Gong Li, she is now a top actress in the world, and she has been waiting for a movie like this for decades!

At this time, the courtyard of Shanhe was also very lively, and the core personnel of Chuhe Film and Television organized a group to visit.

Zhong Lifeng, Yang Liu, Ning Hao and his wife, Xu Ke and his wife, Wu Ershan, Tian Xiaopeng, Huang Bo, Wang Baoqiang, Zeng Li, Hu Ge and others all gathered around and laughed and talked under Hathaway's reception.

Shanhe was answering the phone non-stop at the moment, and his parents, teachers, teachers, grandmother, and sister took turns coming to share the joy with him.

Zhang Yimou, Jiang Wen, Ma Weidu, Feng Xiaogang and other friends and acquaintances also called to congratulate on the good news.

US$11.7 billion in a single day, this news is really shocking!

"The Great Immortal is really in the Immortal Class now. I am still a little confused. How can he always do some non-human things? Domestic sales exceed 80 million US dollars in a single day, and global sales exceed 100 million US dollars in a single day. I dare not even think about it. ah!"

Hu Ge looked at Shanhe who was on the phone in the middle courtyard and sighed.

Huang Bo smiled and answered,

"I can accept whatever big things the boss does. Not long after Chuhe Film and Television was established, he was the first to sign me and Baoqiang. Do you think this is something ordinary people can do? I will never forget it in my life. The scene when I received the call from Yangliu, the turning point in my life suddenly fell from the sky!"

"that is!"

Wang Baoqiang also recalled,

"The first time I saw Shan He was as an extra who could not earn even ten yuan a day. I didn't understand anything. Director Li Yang picked him up and got him from Chuhe Film and Television. Shan He was already a world-famous writer at that time. He was so nice. He didn’t look down on me, a country bumpkin, at all. Before I met him, I should have gone back to my hometown to farm!”

"hehe…"

Yang Liu laughed when he heard this,

"You two generals, Heng Ha, are the veterans of our Chuhe Film and Television. In order to improve the appearance of the company's artists, I was almost obsessed with handsome boys and beauties. When I saw Zeng Li, I was so excited!"

"Haha..." Everyone laughed.

Zeng Li also laughed,

"I was still filming "Silent Witness" at the time. Shanhe picked out my shortcomings as soon as we met. He has changed many people. Without his words, I would have been just a kid waiting to die. actor!"

Ning Hao nodded with emotion and looked at Shanhe who was still answering the phone. He had also been dragged by him to get to where he is today.

Now, the global explosion of "Gravity" marks that Chuhe Film and Television has entered a new stage, and large-scale productions are no longer the threshold for Chinese-language films.

"Bring Her Eyes" and "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" have already begun preparations. In the next few years, Chuhe Film and Television's goal is to be on par with the Big Six in Hollywood.

"Lao Hu, how did you get together with your boss in the first place? Was it really because you were such a scumbag?"

Huang Bo's words filled the room with laughter again. Everyone looked at Hu Ge curiously and jokingly.

"Don't listen to his nonsense!"

Hu Ge blushed and argued,

"When I met him, he was still in junior high school in northern Fujian, and he had just finished writing his first novel. I had a piercing eye. When we first met, I knew that this person was not a mortal. He gave me the camera I saved up to buy. I gave it to him, but I was not at a loss, Shanhe gave me his first manuscript, and later he was recommended to enter the Magic City No. 2 Middle School. We were the most popular people in the school at that time, and had nothing to do with the scumbag!"

"Then you'll make a lot of money. Shanhe's first book manuscript is of great significance!"

"No, this manuscript will be the future heirloom of my Hu family!"

"Ha ha…"

…

After Shanhe answered the phone, he walked into the main hall and heard joy inside.

"What are you talking about? We had so much fun talking!"

Hathaway walked up and hugged Shanhe, and replied with a smile: "Hugo was talking about your high school life, and he said you were a man of the hour!"

"What a man of the hour! Two scumbags who are not doing their job properly! Old Hu, you can really put money on your face, you are so stubborn!"

"Great Immortal, you publicly slandered my youth on CCTV. Now I have become a representative figure of a bad student. It has greatly affected my idol image!"

"Chuhe Film and Television are all powerful people, idols are not easy to use! Lao Hu, handsome guys are not popular in Chuhe Film and Television!"

"Ha ha…"

…

The good news about the box office of "Gravity" filled Shanhe's courtyard with joy, and everyone was reminiscing about the glorious past.

Along the way, Shanhe constantly changed everything around him, making his life full of legends and colors.

Like-minded people gather together and it becomes clear!

At noon that day, a large table was gathered in the courtyard, and everyone chatted about the past and the future while drinking and drinking.

In the next two days, the reputation and box office of "Gravity" continued to explode around the world, and its energy was staggering.

11.7 billion US dollars is just the beginning, 120 million US dollars, 135 million US dollars, box office records are refreshed every day.

Over the weekend, Gravity's terrifying reign took the global film market by storm.

The global entertainment industry is talking about this incredible movie and this incredible young man Shan He.

The domestic public has devoted their enthusiasm to the box office accumulation of "Gravity". The data refreshed every day on the Internet is the topic that the public is most concerned about. Every new record will trigger enthusiastic discussions and cheers.

"It's still rising! It's 1.2 billion US dollars!"

"There are too few 3D screens in China. Otherwise, it would be easy to break 100 million dollars, and at least it would be worth a few million more dollars!"

"Come on! We, China, are coming back. The future in "Gravity" is not far away. Everyone, please support "Gravity"!"

…

"Yesterday, the domestic sales exceeded 85 million, and the global sales exceeded 13.5 billion! Keep pushing!"

"The global sales exceeded 400 million US dollars in the first week! Holy shit, Shanhe really launched a spaceship into the sky!"

…

The public is keen to witness the birth of the legend and to watch "Gravity" step by step towards the unknown peak.

The enthusiasm and confidence that came with this enthusiasm were immeasurable, and revival and strength subtly entered the hearts of the public.

In the previous life, "Wolf Warrior 2" had a similar experience. Shanhe ignited the enthusiasm of the Chinese people eight years in advance!

In its first week of release, "Gravity" grossed a domestic box office of RMB 340 million, and the highest single-day box office record climbed to RMB 85 million.

The North American box office in its first week exceeded 100 million, 103 million, which is not too far away from the first-week record of "The Dark Knight" of 130 million.

"Gravity" is an original movie, not comparable to comic book sequels like "The Dark Knight."

The overseas box office of "The Dark Knight" was US$120 million in its first week and the global box office was US$250 million in its first week. "Gravity" left him far behind.

The global box office of "Gravity" exceeded 400 million US dollars in its first week, 415 million US dollars!

It broke box office records in countless countries and regions, and was even more powerful than Cameron's "Titanic".

It was released for four days, with an average daily box office of over 100 million. This box office growth curve shocked the major Hollywood film and television companies.

Huaxia Qiu plus 3DIMAX technology! To be able to achieve this, four days is more than 400 million, what about ten days, what about one month?

A month later, there’s a damn Cameron and Avatar coming up!

Hurry up and get started with 3D technology!

These two perverts are sure to make this trend fly!

Disney and Chuhe Film and Television won so hard this time that they couldn't even spend their promotional budget.

The horrific outbreak of "Gravity" has put the release of the movie into a virtuous cycle. Almost all entertainment media around the world are spontaneously promoting "Gravity".

Various media in North America and China are reporting on "Gravity"-related news.

Everything about the movie has become a hot topic of public attention.

The combined influence of Day-Lewis' two Oscar-winning actors is not as huge as his supporting role in "Gravity."

As the absolute heroine in the film, Gong Li's achievements are even more amazing. Not only is she honored, but she is also glittering with gold.

Almost all film critics and media praised her acting skills and charm.

Nomination for next year's Oscar for Best Actress is a foregone conclusion.

Her net worth has skyrocketed several times, her salary has increased from two to three million US dollars to fifteen million, and endorsement contracts are coming to her like pieces of paper.

Putting aside the reputation and influence, Gong Li gained at least hundreds of millions of dollars in actual benefits from "Gravity".

The global film industry is buzzing with excitement and excitement due to "Gravity".

Shanhe and Hathaway lived a rare leisurely life in the courtyard.

Choosing the two careers of acting and directing means spending less time with family and more time away from each other.

This is especially true for relationships. In the entertainment industry, relationships are cheap and can be thrown away casually.

It is precisely because of this that Shan He and Hathaway, a stable transnational couple, have attracted media attention.

Both of them are used to being busy and rarely have time to live a leisurely life, so they both enjoy this feeling of ordinary life.

The trees want to be still but the wind is not stopping. The phenomenal explosion of "Gravity" makes the life of Shanhe destined to be uneasy.

Sake makes people's faces red, money and silk touch people's hearts!

Shanhe is hiding at home, but there is still an endless stream of visitors coming to visit.

No, Feng Xiaogang and his wife came uninvited.

"Shanhe, you are really an extraordinary person, and you do extraordinary things. You are making a mess outside, but you are a couple of gods and gods at home. There is no other famous person in ancient times who is more like this!"

Feng Xiaogang's flattery made Shan He laugh. Ever since he met Feng Xiaogang, he had been so virtuous. He couldn't help but praise Shan He when he saw him.

"Director Feng, Sister Xu, let's have tea! We've known each other for a long time. It's obvious that you praised me when we met!"

"Haha... I'm not telling the truth!"

Xu Fan was also familiar with Shanhe. He took the tea cup and said,

"Shanhe, don't listen to his blindness and poverty. All the old guns in the capital are like this. They tell lies as soon as they open their mouths. They are not serious!"

Shan He smiled and responded: "Director Feng, Sister Xu, you two understand me. Let's talk directly if we have something to say, no need to beat around the bush!"

"The world in the circle belongs to you!"

Feng Xiaogang grinned and said,

"You're welcome. I'm starting to do post-production work on "Tangshan Earthquake." Ever since I watched "Gravity," my heart has been like a cat's paw. Shanhe, you said I made the earthquake scene at the beginning too. How about 3D special effects animation?”

"Director Feng, the scene of a major earthquake is not small. One problem with 3D production technology is that it takes a long time. To create a major earthquake, it will take half a year just for modeling. Can you wait?"

"Ah!" Feng Xiaogang asked Shanhe with confusion, "I heard that there is a technology that can convert 2D into 3D using post-production. Is this possible?"

Shanhe nodded, "Yes, converting to 3D, that is, pseudo-3D. To be honest, I am not very optimistic about this technology. This technology is suspected of making money, and blindly converting 2D to 3D in the later stage is not only easy to cause The dizziness of the audience will make it easier to lose resolution and reduce the brightness of the movie, which will do great harm to the picture of the movie."

"You don't suggest I use this technique?"

Shanhe nodded,

"Yes, Director Feng, you are a representative of Chinese commercial directors. There is no need to hype the 3D concept just to keep up with the fashion. Once the film's effect fails to meet the audience's expectations, it will suffer a bad reputation. It will be counterproductive. It will not increase the box office much, but will Your reputation is lost!”

Feng Xiaogang lowered his head and considered for a while, then accepted Shanhe's opinion.

"Shanhe, what you said makes sense. You are an expert in 3D technology. How big a prospect will 3D have in China?"

"3D technology is definitely the trend of the future, but it is estimated that not many directors in China actually dare to use it. 3D shooting cycle is long, the investment is large, and the risks are extremely high. It is difficult to recover the cost by relying on the domestic market alone.

Director Feng, if you are interested, you can talk to Ning Hao. He is preparing a new film and will probably spend two and a half to three years making a 3D film! "
