You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 714: God-given opportunity, the British Museum was robbed! And the filming of

The National Day holiday in 2021 is significantly cooler than the previous two years.

Not to mention that "Watergate Bridge" performed far worse than the first "Changjin Lake", "My Fathers and Me" only had a box office of over a billion.

There is also the famous director Zheng Xiaolong's attempt at a movie, "The Meritorious Service". The cast is very luxurious, and two of the four young and old students have appeared, but the total box office is only one billion.

Under such circumstances, Wang Dao supported newcomer director Liu Xunzimo's scripted murder film "Famous", but it turned out to be a dark horse.

Except for the heroine Zhang Tianai, there are almost no popular stars. They are all actors. Even Zhang Tianai has not been as good as before in the past two years. On the contrary, surrounded by the main theme movies, he has earned more than 1 billion in box office and has become a hot topic. .

Zhang Tianai is very grateful to Director Quan for urging her to star in this low-budget film, and she finally has a film masterpiece.

However, she wanted to thank Director Quan, but she couldn't because Director Quan was living happily in the United States at the moment. Two days ago, he was a hot topic in global entertainment forums because he was a guest at Swift's concert.

Of course, Wang Quan is not doing nothing. The film "Zhang Chunru" directed by Ma Ling has officially started production. He serves as the producer. It was Wang Quan who first proposed to film this subject.

In addition, Wang Quan and Spielberg have finalized the project for "Ready Player One 2", which will be released in about 2023. As for the heroine, she has been changed from Pang Bing to Ni Ni.

Taking advantage of Marvel's weakness after Avengers 4, Dragon Head is about to blow the clarion call for counterattack.

As for Pang Bing, Wang Quan will make up for her in other ways. Ni Ni has already been nominated for an Oscar for Best Actress, and it’s time to challenge for the title of "International Ni".

Although the King of Thrones' return to Hollywood has yet to be announced, a treasure trove has been unearthed for The Dragon's Head this summer.

The first part of "Squidward", which was released in the summer, has officially been released. The North American box office has exceeded 500 million US dollars, and the global box office has exceeded 1.1 billion US dollars!

Although the mainland only has 1.5 billion, it ranks first among imported films, beating out films such as "Godzilla vs. Kong" and "Fast and Furious 9".

The key point is that this is a series, and at least three movies can be made, which effectively alleviates Long Toutou's situation in the past two years. After the movie is finished, it can be turned into a web series and released on Netflix. Wang Quan proposed to find a group of Asians to film it, and even more There is a sense of freshness.

Wang Quan's compensation for Fat Bing is the heroine of the second part of "Squid Game".

And as of October, "Squidward Game" is still No. 1 in the global annual box office.

While it certainly won't hold up, the third one will certainly have its place.

As for why we can't seize first and second place, this is a crime other than war. We really can't beat it.

Because there will be two super IP sequel movies released in the next two months, one is called "Avatar 2: Water Path" and the other is called "Spider-Man: No Homecoming".

There have been rumors that Holland's version of Spider-Man will bring back the previous two Spider-Men for the third part. If true, then this movie will be nuclear explosion-level.

And Wang Quan knows that this is true!

Wang Quan's four children are all here at Liu Yifei's house in Beverly Hills. Looking at these children, Wang Quan sighed in his heart, this looks like a big family.

Originally, because Liu Yifei was filming, she often lived away from home. The one-year-old Bayi was really sad for a while, but fortunately, he was accompanied by two sisters, a brother and a dog, which made him quickly forget the sadness of not having his mother by his side. Feeling.

Although Liu Yifei doesn't go home very often, Yang Mi lives at home, and the crew of "Pacific Rim 3" is in Los Angeles.

Although Mimi's English is now perfect, she is not very interested in American TV shows and dramas, and she still insists on playing Xigua videos while abroad.

"Hahaha!"

She smiled happily, "This killer is not very cold, he is so funny!"

Not only did she watch it herself, but she also recommended Wang Quan to watch it together. This is the comedy program "Annual Comedy Competition" co-created by Xigua Video and Ma Dong's Mi Wei.

Since Mi Wei and Xigua first collaborated in "Summer of the Band", the two companies have been basically bound.

Wang Quan took a look and was impressed by both actors, "The one named Zhang Chi played Lao Mouzi's "Man Jiang Hong"."

"That doesn't seem to be easy."

"It's just a small role, and it can't be ranked," Wang Quan pointed to another one, "This Jiang Long should have played in "Dream Showbiz"."

Sure enough, after the performance, Jiang Long was mortified when Ma Dong brought up this topic.

The same goes for Jiang Peiyao. Although she has become one of the four young actresses born in the 1990s, "Dream Showbiz" is a stain on her body that can never be erased.

Entering November, Liu Yifei returned to China to film the plot of "Chen Ru", but this time she resolutely left her son in Los Angeles without taking him with her. Next, she needs to fully get into the drama.

Wang Quan was a little worried. Although she had Sanxiu by her side, he still felt uneasy, so he asked Tangtang to accompany Sissy in the Magic City.

Anyway, "Flowers" has to be filmed for another two years, so she has a lot of free time.

After Sissi left, Wang Quan submitted his new film plan to Dorothy, and it was approved at the speed of light.

She hugged Wang Quan heavily: "I have been waiting for this day for a long time!"

What makes her even happier is that in order to film this movie, Wang Quan will probably spend the next year in the United States. She is really happy for Gadot!

Wang Quan directly lifted her up and placed her on the president's desk, "Oh, are you really happy for Gadot?"

Little K: "Hey, can you two calm down? I'm still here."

Dorothy waved to his wife: "Can you take the initiative? I want to give Alex a brother or sister."

Without the "Xiaoyaoyou" series, the mainland's November schedule is undoubtedly a cold schedule. It was very quiet last year, but this year is different because "Avatar 2" is coming!

Because it has been too long, in order to help the audience review the plot, the first "Avatar" is going to be re-screened in China and other markets.

After three weeks of re-screening, the second part will be here.

The movie theater owners naturally welcomed it. The last re-screening of "Inception" made 1.2 billion yuan. They think that "Avatar" can at least make 1 billion yuan.

After more than a decade, the best 3D special effects are still these two movies, and it is basically difficult for latecomers to surpass them.

Speaking of transcendence, it is not next year that the Winter Olympics will be held. In order to pay tribute to the Tokyo Olympics, the TV series "Transcendence" about short track speed skating, directed by the General Administration and co-produced by Mishi and Qiankun, is being filmed.

Yang Chaoyue's name contains the word "Chaoyue", and her experience is also very inspiring. She is about the same age as the heroine Chen Mian, so Mi Shi strongly recommends her to be the heroine. Some time ago, she had been practicing short track speed skating with Winter Olympic champion Wang Meng. At that time, Wang Meng was in a bad mood and was said to be injured by Li Ming.

The supporting actors for Yang Chaoyue include comedy queen Ma Li, literary actor Hu Jun, Ying Zakaimen Sha Yi, Pian Yao Talking to Strangers Mei Ting, and Slam Dunk Grandma Sarina.

It can be said that although it is a TV series, this lineup is higher than many movie configurations, and Chaoyue can be regarded as picking up a treasure.

Although Chaoyue did not have a rivalry with Teacher Ma Li, she has been in the crew, so she has become familiar with Teacher Ma Li. She also went to Mahua to support their drama and had the idea of ​​performing a drama to hone her acting skills.

I was mainly surprised by Teacher Ma Li's acting skills. In this play, she plays a heroic and tough coach who is soft inside and not Ma Li at all.

In addition to filming, Chaoyue also goes to movies after work, such as the re-released "Avatar".

She didn't have the conditions to watch it back then, but now she wants to make up for it and watch it on the best screen.

However, after watching it, she didn't feel that it was that good. The special effects were of course nothing to say, but the story was very empty, and it was very different from Director Quan's "Inception".

The response in the market was not as enthusiastic as the theater managers expected at the beginning.

Before the release of "Avatar 2", the box office of this re-released movie had just exceeded 600 million, and the total box office was expected to be only half of the re-released version of "Inception".

Previously, the domestic media's box office expectations for "Avatar 2" were all 4 billion to start, 5 billion was normal, and 60 was considered a good performance. If the word of mouth is against the sky, it would not be surprising to pull "Happy Journey 3" down from the first place in film history.

As a result, the box office of "Avatar 2" barely exceeded 1 billion a week after its release, and the single-day box office was soon replaced by a cartoon that came out of nowhere.

The film "Escape from the British Museum", written by Wang Quan and co-produced by China and the United States, has become a global hit in a special way and has become a dark horse at the box office of the year.

And this is thanks to the British Museum.

"Escape from the British Museum" is scheduled to be released on December 10, with "Avatar 2" before it and "Spider-Man 3: No Return" after it.

Wang Dao attaches great importance to this film and has invested a very high amount of publicity and promotion costs with Maoyan. It is expected that the box office in the mainland will be at least 1 billion, reaching the level of "Zootopia" and "Dream".

And just before the film was released, the British Museum was really robbed! This news quickly made the front page headlines of major media around the world.

The British Museum has been robbed more than once or twice.

In 1993, the museum's collection of Roman coins was stolen; in 1997, several Persian books were stolen; in 2002, a 2,500-year-old Greek statue was stolen; in 2004, more than a dozen Chinese bronze mirrors, armor and gems were stolen; in 2017, a Cartier ring diamond worth 750,000 pounds was revealed to have been stolen in 2011.

But all of the above are nothing compared to this time.

This time, the British Museum officially announced that 1,500 gems and jewelry were stolen from the warehouse.

After the incident was exposed, China, Greece, Nigeria, Egypt and other countries once again urged it to return the looted cultural relics.

Especially on the Chinese Internet, the confidence brought by the country's prosperity made the voices of netizens particularly eye-catching, and the heat lasted for many days.

Against this background, "Escape from the British Museum", which tells the story of a cultural relic that insisted on leaving the British Museum and returning to its homeland after it became spiritual, and a series of interesting stories happened, was officially released!

Although the first-day box office is not as good as the first day of "Avatar", the trend is stronger.

And the next "Spider-Man 3" was also impacted by this movie, and coupled with poor word of mouth, it did not achieve the expected popularity in the mainland.

However, in North America, relying on the sentiment of the three spiders in the same frame, it is indeed very popular, and North America is even expected to surpass "Avatar 2".

In the end, when 2021 ended, "Spider-Man 3" ranked seventh in the annual box office in the mainland with 2.912 billion yuan.

Of course, 2.9 billion is already very good. The Marvel movies "Shang-Chi", "Venom 2", "Black Widow" and "Eternals" in 21 years are not more than half of Spider-Man.

Moreover, "Shang-Chi" and "Eternals" were criticized by netizens, and even the China Film and Film Bureau, which put the two movies in, were scolded by netizens for having no principles and no bottom line for the sake of box office.

Among them, "Eternals" was dug up because of some hateful remarks made by Chinese-American director Zhao Ting on Twitter in the early days. The movie was forced to be taken offline just one week after its box office was less than 100 million.

"Avatar 2" was criticized by netizens for its empty story, and the underwater 3D wonders had already been played in "Escape from Hong Kong 3". It finally ranked sixth in the year with 3.168 billion.

"Escape from the British Museum" won 3.588 billion as a dark horse and ranked fifth in the year. It was also the second highest among mainland animated films after "Ne Zha".

Although this movie has half Hollywood blood, two and a half movies entered the top ten of the year, which is the best record of Hollywood blockbusters in the mainland in recent years.

Netizens said that Hollywood is getting better and can almost compete with Chinese-language movies.

Of course, it is talking about the mainland. If Wang Quan does not take action, overseas will still be the world of Hollywood.

Looking at the global market, the dark horse "Squid Game" was squeezed to the fourth place of the year by the rising dark horse "Escape from the British Museum".

With the huge explosion of the mainland market, "Escape from the British Museum" has achieved a terrifying result of 1.582 billion US dollars worldwide. This data beat "Frozen 2" by a slight advantage and became the best-selling animated film in film history.

In addition, Disney's performance this year was average, so Long Taiyang regained the throne of the first market share in North America, and its stock price rose slightly, but it still had a gap with Netflix.

Illumination and Inception have started the creation of the second part without stopping.

However, this result is nothing compared with "Avatar 2" and "Spider-Man 3".

"Spider-Man 3" has a global box office of 2.168 billion US dollars, ranking sixth in film history.

"Avatar 2" did not perform as well as the first one, but it also had 2.645 billion US dollars, ranking third in film history.

As for "Avatar", the first in film history, after another round of re-screening, the total box office has reached an astonishing 2.952 billion, which has completely opened up the gap with "Avengers 4", and everyone knows that "Avengers 4" will not pose much threat even if it is re-screened.

As for Wang Quan's best film, The Force Awakens, it was pushed to the fourth place in film history.

So some people started to criticize Wang Quan in person.

Sissi is here: In the past, people always said that Wang Quan was the best director in the world, but now it seems that it is not entirely true.

Wuxing Zhenren: That's right, it's not a big deal to get the first place in film history by piling up numbers. If you want to compare, just compare a single movie.

Price_chang: Cameron is the first in film history, and Cameron is also the third, so the best director in the world should be God Cameron!

Hermes K: Of course, Director Quan is only the best director in the world, but Cameron is the god of movies!

Zeng Kai, the big man who was banned five times in a month: Cameron, a man that Wang Quan can never defeat!

firezy06: Let's say that after all five parts of Avatar are released, God Cameron's global box office should be able to exceed Director Quan, right?

Spit a face of toilet water: Don't even think about it, "Small Town Test-taker" has broken 1 billion dollars worldwide, and now Director Quan's personal global box office is 27.2 billion dollars! The total box office of Kaspersky is less than 10 billion, and another 10 or 8 Avatars will be enough.

Just then, a message came from Hollywood that Inception 2 was announced and scheduled for 2023!
