Superstar

In the entire North American entertainment industry in 1997, there were two most sensational news. One was the 600 million U.S. dollar box office of the "Titanic"; the other was the forty consecutive titles of the "Rapid Rain".

After "Titanic" swept the US$600 million in the box office in North America, it swept across the world. Not only did it become the first film in film history to exceed one billion US dollars in overseas box office, it also reached 1.5 billion US dollars in one fell swoop. High and strong became the first film in film history to exceed $2 billion at the box office, which completely changed the development process of the entire film industry.

If it is said that after "Independence Day" was born last year, the global box office of 1.2 billion U.S. dollars has been jaw-dropping, then this year "Titanic" has truly brought the movie into the era of blockbusters. The history is just like 1996. "Independence Day" is the standard, and it is divided into before and after the blockbuster era, which is nothing less than the "male and male thieves" turned out to be the master of merit in 1967.

In a cycle of twenty years, the film industry once again opened up a whole new world.

"Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World" Although the North American box office did not reach a new high, thanks to the contact of overseas box office, it finally ranked second on the year-end list, with a $618 million The global box office has also become the decisive data for Universal Pictures to put the third episode of the proposal on its desk.

The unrepeatable and unique "L.A. Confidential" is destined to be unable to shoot a sequel, but this work has swept the box office of 610 million US dollars worldwide, which is enough to make Warner Bros. laugh internally. What's more, this work is still highly anticipated in the major awards ceremonies that follow, and Warner Bros. will never easily let go of the opportunity to maximize profits.

Sony Columbia Pictures has become the world’s biggest box office winner, and their "Man in Black", "Air Force One", "Perfect", "My Best Friend's Wedding", and "The Fifth Element" all ranked among the top ten , Occupying the fourth, sixth, seventh, ninth and tenth positions respectively.

Mark Canton worked hard for three years and finally ushered in a bumper harvest. Five works accounted for half of the top ten, even more than the "Titanic" that needs Paramount and Twentieth Century Fox to share profits. Want scenery. This result has shocked countless people. It seems that Mark, who is not rich enough in strategy, has actually fought a beautiful turnaround battle.

In addition, the "007 Empire of Tomorrow" relied on the global brand effect, occupying the fifth place; the eighth place belongs to the "big talk king" of Jin-Kerry.

"Titanic", "Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World", "L.A. Confidential", "Men in Black", "007 Empire of Tomorrow", "Air Force One", "Perfect Perfection", "Big Talker" ", "My Best Friend's Wedding", "The Fifth Element", this is the top ten in the 1997 year-end list.

Hugo once again occupies two seats in the list. "L.A. Confidential" has a global box office of 610 million, quietly becoming Hugo's personal global box office second only to "Independence Day". ; "Perfect" has also won US$314 million globally, only one million US dollars behind the sixth-ranked "Air Force One", and achieved such a result with an investment of US$50 million-and Still, even when Hugo didn't star in directly, it really made Mark wake up with a smile when he fell asleep.

However, compared to the field of film, Hugo's influence on a global scale is still lost to glory to death. In the past year, Glory to Death carries the momentum of the "Blurry Rain" world tour and the album of the same name, which has given a strong resurgence of rock and roll on a global scale. The powerful appeal is almost reminiscent of Michael at his peak. -Jackson or the Beatles.

No one can underestimate glory to death!

Since its release in the fourth week of October last year, "Blurry Rain" has been advancing all the way, breaking many records in North America with an absolutely strong posture, and finally fixed its number of consecutive championship weeks above forty weeks. In ten months, no one can shake the absolute dominance of this album. In 1997 alone, "Blurry Rain" held the North American Billboard Championship for nearly two-thirds of the time, so the year-end album sales charts Before it came out, people had predicted that this year's year-end championship would still be this album.

This is also true of the facts. "Blurry Rain" swept 10.17 million sales in 1997. Not only was this the only album that sold more than 8 million in this year, but the results were also overwhelming. "Blurry" won the year-end sales champion last year with the "8.3 million" album, which was the first album since the 1990s that achieved 10 million sales in a single year, and for the second year in a row, the North American year-end sales champion. Included in the bag.

This has not only made "Blurry Rain" after "Thriller", after a lapse of thirteen years, once again there is an album that can win the year-end sales champion for two consecutive years; what is even more frightening is "Blurry Rain". "The sales volume of 10 million in a single year was created when the sales volume of 8 million in the previous year had already erupted, which made everyone even more shocked. Even after the forty weeks of consecutive championships, "Blurry Rain" has always been the most powerful contender for the championship position on the Billboard Albums Chart every week. Such outstanding performance has truly written a new history.

After the chicken blood mode is turned on, it is out of control.

Although this is only the third album to the death of glory, the number of works is still too small compared to those of the Hall of Fame members who made countless history, but it won the year-end sales championship for two consecutive years, within 14 months Sales reached 18.47 million, making it one of the highest-selling charts in the history of North American music, and occupying a super high position in the twelfth place. It is only time to break into the top ten. The problem is only the latest chapter of Yuyu Fairy Demon.

In the long history of North American music, the sales champion was a collection released by the Eagles in 1976. As of 2006, it had sold 29 million copies; and Michael Jackson's "Thriller" reached this point in 2009. One achievement, tied for the first place in history with 29 million copies.

A total of eight albums with sales exceeding 20 million have appeared in North America, the Eagles, Michael Jackson, Pink Floyd, Zeppelin, Billy Joel, Gas Brooks, and Shania -Dunn. This is the highest level of the North American music market, and the eight albums are from eight different singers. Even the Beatles, Frank Sinatra and others at their peak have not been able to achieve such a high level.

But now, not only is the "storm and rain" about to reach such a historical height, but in the silence, "bath in the morning light" is also infinitely close to this historical benchmark.

"Bath the Morning Light" benefited from the fiery start of the Glory to Death World Tour, and in 1997 it once again ushered in a sales rebound, and finally achieved a sales volume of 2.1 million, although it did not squeeze into the top two in the year-end list. Ten, but still let the cumulative sales of this album reach 19.3 million, only a layer of window paper from the height of 20 million.

It is worth mentioning that "Bath in the Morning Light" is currently on the top of the North American album sales charts, at the eleventh place, just ahead of "Blurry Rain".

The top singers with two seats in the top 20 of the total sales chart include the Eagles, Gas Brooks, and Zeppelin, and now they have another name: Glory to Death! It can be seen that Glory to Death has already made history. If "Bath in the Morning Light" and "Blood Storm" can both exceed 20 million sales, then Glory to Death will reach the height of no one in the past, and that kind of gradual The excitement of approaching makes the North American market unable to calm down at all.

It’s hard to believe that in the 60s and 70s, the most prosperous record industry, no one was able to accomplish feats. However, in the 1990s when the commercial development reached a mature stage, the recording industry ushered in a full-blown explosion. To "don't mind" and then to the current "hurt and rain", record sales should be an absolutely brilliant and beautiful era.

In addition, although "almost fame" has not risen much, after a glorious year to death, cumulative sales have now reached 13 million U.S. dollars. There is no need to say anything about the outstanding achievements of the glory to death.

"Blurry Rain" swept more than 10 million sales in 1997. Such a Big Mac's data is completely comparable to the miracles of "Titanic" and "Independence Day" in the movie market, and it undoubtedly dominates the year-end sales in North America. After the list, other singers can only compete fiercely towards the runner-up position.

In the end, Christopher Wallace who died young ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ alias the. . b. i. g) The talented solo album "Life After Death (.after.death turned out, and won the sales of 7.73 million, occupying the second place of the year strongly.

This is actually quite a fate. The album "No Way To Retreat" by the bragging father is Christopher-alias b. i. G's posthumous work, Bragging Daddy completed this album on behalf of his friends, and ended the forty-week consecutive title of "Blurry Rain"; and above the year-end charts, Christopher's solo album "Life After Death" also scored very well. Outstanding results undoubtedly overwhelm other competitors, closely following in the footsteps of glory to death, ranking second in the year.

The hot girl group, who has repeatedly been suppressed by the glory to the death on the singles chart, turned out. The first album "Hot" achieved a score of 6.34 million, setting off a wave of **** and charming girl groups in North America. Won the third runner-up in the North American year-end sales list.

It is worth mentioning that, from the combination to the spice combination to the Destiny Girl, from the choir to the boy-man group to the backstreet boy, the idol groups in Europe and the United States have truly matured and are gradually ushering in the golden age.

Glory to death, b. i. g, Spice Girls accounted for the top three in the year-end list respectively, which became the best footnotes in 1997: rock, rap, pop, one-third of the world!
