Chapter 304 Red
  Before "Gravity" was released, although Yu Nan relied on her previous experience as an international movie queen and her status as the heroine of "Gravity" and "The Expendables 2", her number of followers on her Twitter account was only over [-] Just ten thousand.

After all, most movie fans still don’t know much about her, especially fans in the United States. Naturally, they mostly watch movies produced in Hollywood. In fact, they don’t know much about international literary and artistic films or commercial films unless they are released on a large scale in the United States. .

This is also why heroines in Hollywood commercial films are worth more, because they can attract more fans' attention, which is beneficial to the movie's box office.

In fact, if a movie becomes popular, it may not necessarily make the actors popular too.

But for actors, movies with big male protagonists or big female protagonists can increase their chances of becoming popular.

This is why actors in superhero movies often have a large number of fans, such as Robert Downey Jr., who can be admired all over the world.

The fact that Robert Downey Jr. is famous all over the world is not because he conquered the audience with his acting skills. In fact, he benefited from the huge role of "Iron Man". This role is so popular.

For example, Johnny Depp, who is world-famous for "Pirates of the Caribbean", such as Captain America Chris Evans, and the widowed sister Scarlett Johansson.
  The main reason why Jiang Wen was able to win the Golden Globe Award for "The Martian" was also because the movie gained him huge attention and he reaped the dividends.

The same is true for "Gravity" at this time. When everyone thinks of this movie in the future, they will definitely think of it as a movie with a heroine. This actress once played a very good role.
  "If you give me this role, there will be no obstacles in my path to Hollywood."

Zhang Ziyi filmed the so-called international war-romance blockbuster "Dangerous Liaisons", but this is far behind "Gravity" and is not on the same level at all.

Because of the negative news in the past few years, Hollywood production companies have abandoned her. If there is no suitable film to turn around, her Hollywood journey may end here.

Moreover, there are domestic rivals competing with her for roles.
  After the movie was released, Yu Nan's Twitter followers skyrocketed from more than one million to more than two million in just one day, and it's still growing!

"Gravity" Li Mu only needs to promote it in North America and China. The basics of these two places are stable, and it is basically stable.

As for other countries such as Japan and South Korea, Li Mu is already well-known in these countries. As long as he does good online promotion, audiences from all over the world will go to the cinema to watch his new movie.

After all, Li Mu's movies have already established a reputation around the world, and with Warner's global promotion, he doesn't need to be so tired and has to make a special trip to each country.

With a score of 9.0 on IMDb, it can be seen that North American audiences recognize this movie.

In the film circle, the reputation of this film has shown a one-sided trend. Filmmakers from Europe, America and Asia all believe that "Gravity" is the best science fiction film in recent years.

Li Mu, Yu Nan, and Matt Damon are all waiting for the release of the first-day and first-week box office in North America. The North American market generally accounts for one-third of the global box office of movies.

Just before the first-day box office in North America is released, the domestic box office for the fifth day of the Lunar New Year has been released, with a single-day box office of 1.28 million, continuing to raise the single-day box office to a new level.

"Killing crazy"

Industry insiders looked at the box office curve of "Gravity" and cried with greed.

"Director Li Mu's "The Center of the Earth" continued to set new records for domestic films on the Lunar New Year's Day. The Spring Festival release triggered a movie-watching craze and drove the vigorous development of the entire film industry."

News coverage, as always, kept pace.

This Spring Festival, in addition to Li Mu's "Gravity", other movies also gained a lot.

"The box office of the first day in North America is out."

Li Mu smiled and looked at the email Warner sent him.

As the male and female protagonists, Matt Damon and Yu Nan are also paying close attention to it. This time, Matt Damon also attracted many fans with this humorous and tragic hero.

"Wow, over $2300 million!"

Matt Damon's eyes lit up. As long as this result can be maintained in the first week, it will be another huge hit in North America, not to mention that the reputation is so strong now.

On Saturday, the box office grossed 2600 million U.S. dollars, continuing its upward trend.

However, the domestic box office began to decline on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, with a collection of 1.1 million yuan. It will obviously gradually decline over time.

However, in Asia, the Korean film market also ushered in a wave of movie viewing this weekend.

Although South Korea has different cultural backgrounds, the Spring Festival is still one of their most important traditional festivals. Just as the Spring Festival stalls in China are becoming more and more popular, so is South Korea.

This year the quality is generally higher, with nearly ten new films being released in a week. It is estimated that the latest issue of the list has undergone a large-scale change.

This year's Spring Festival, blockbusters like "Gravity" were the most watched by Korean audiences, becoming the most popular film.

Li Mu and "Gravity" also ranked among the hot search terms on multiple platforms such as Korean social media.

The number of viewers on the first day was close to 100 million, which is very scary.

Although in the past five to ten years, not only the domestic but also Korean film market has also been booming. Basically, there are 1-2 movies in South Korea every year with more than 500 million viewers, and even more movies with more than 4 million viewers. There can be about 5-[-] pieces.

But when you consider that the population of South Korea is only over [-] million, such box office data is basically the limit of the Korean market.

It is obvious that Lee Mu's "Gravity" will become a new phenomenon-level movie in South Korea.

Korean audiences enjoyed watching it, but they also enjoyed scolding their own director.

Various social media outlets scolded Korean directors for not making progress and resting on their laurels, while they have been completely surpassed by Chinese directors, and even Chinese actors have become heroines of world blockbusters.
  This is indeed a contradictory country.

On Sunday, the North American box office grossed $2200 million. It earned US$7100 million in its first week, firmly holding the top spot at the North American weekly box office, tens of millions of dollars more than the original "The Martian."

Domestically, on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the box office dropped to more than 8900 million yuan.

However, the media has already calculated the box office in the first week, and it happened to be released for 7 days.

""Gravity" has 7 million in its first seven days, setting a new domestic first-week box office record." - Zhalang Entertainment.

The box office of "Gravity" in its first week has been widely reported, and this good start has built strong confidence in the industry.

"Sissi, Li Mu's movie is too scary."

Shu Chang and other actors were a little stunned. This first week's box office has completed the lifetime of some blockbusters.

"Amu said it was because there were more screens in the country, but in fact it was a normal increase."
  Liu Yifei imitated Li Mu's humble words and spoke slowly.

"Come on, who can you bluff with this? There are too many screens, but the problem is that the audience must be willing to come in and watch the movie, otherwise there will be no box office."

"whee."

Liu Yifei smiled and didn't answer. She hugged Little Chengzi and gently pressed it happily.

Compared with Liu Yifei's happy mood at this time, Zhang Weiping is extremely sour. After all, if "Thirteen Hairpins" can be like this, his current crisis may be relieved.

Now not only is the box office not enough to recoup the cost, but Zhang Yi is also determined to leave New Picture.

"Lao Mouzi, Lao Mouzi, if you don't show me affection for your brother, don't blame me for being cruel."

Zhang Weiping's eyes were a little cold. He was not the kind of person to sit back and wait for death.

Huayi.

Wang Zhonglei saw the media report of 7.5 million and said with some envy:

"Brother, let's also try the Spring Festival stall next year."

Huayi didn't have many movies last year, and the blockbusters were all screened in the previous schedule.

Wang Zhongjun also has this consideration, and he already has a goal. The film that Huayi and Zhou Xingchi collaborated on is currently undergoing post-production work. It would be a good choice to release it on the Spring Festival schedule.

Lu Xun was also in a bad mood. Everyone in the circle knew that Li Mu was not dealing with him.

The enemy's movie is so brilliant at the box office, and he is in a good mood.

"Hmph, a group of people who don't know how to appreciate it, what's the value of a science fiction film starring just a few people? When "The King's Feast" comes out, it will redefine what a costume blockbuster is."

Lu Xun murmured in his heart that he was very confident in his costume drama.

This is a movie that he prepared for 3 years and 8 months.
  Li Mu and Yu Nan are already preparing to return home from Hollywood.

In the past few days, Yu Nan's agent has sensed the signs of Yu Nan's popularity.

Hollywood film appointments kept coming, including heroines, but Li Mu frowned after hearing the name.

"These people are here to consume your fame. There is no need to accept bad movies."

Li Mu reminded kindly.

Yu Nan nodded. She had also seen some of the movie offers handed over by Hollywood. They just used her as a gimmick, and the plots were a bit messy.

Stallone, Simon West and others from "The Expendables 2" were extremely happy.

They originally bet on the success of "Gravity" and chose Yu Nan to be the film's only heroine.

Obviously they succeeded and gained a lot. The popularity of "The Expendables 2" in North America has also increased a lot.

"Recently, Yu Nan, the heroine of "Gravity", was invited to participate in many Hollywood movies. According to relevant news, Yu Nan has rejected five Hollywood productions in succession, and her next movie has not yet been determined."

The news that Li Mugang had just returned home, the news that the media found out from nowhere, spread in the circle for a while.

"Really? Sister Yu Nan is so popular now?"

Liu Yifei immediately asked Li Mu to verify the authenticity.

"Really, most people just come here to gain fame, just like when you finished playing "The Witch"."

Li Mu lay on the sofa and smiled, not caring.

Hollywood is actually not much different from China, it’s just that everyone’s eyes are gilded.
