Huayu special effects started in 97

When Jiang Heng was directing the filming of "The Richest Man in Xihong City", his new film was being screened in the global film market and achieved impressive results.

In the mainland market, after the film was released, it broke many box office records, including the first day box office, single-day box office, fastest to break 1 billion, fastest to break 2 billion, and fastest to break 3 billion.

One month after the film was released, the box office in the mainland market had reached 38.9 billion yuan.

In order to hit the 4 billion box office mark, the film's secret key was extended for one month, and the box office performance continued to grow.

In Hong Kong, this kind of Western-style science fiction theme is already popular, and since it is Jiang Heng's special effects blockbuster, the performance will naturally be explosive, and the next film was reported to gross 1.3 million Hong Kong dollars.

In Taiwan, the film's performance was also higher than Jiang Heng's mythological films.

In Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, the box office results broke the local historical records of films directed by Jiang Heng.

How should I put it, science fiction themes and special effects scenes are one aspect.

More importantly, the story of possessing "hyperspace travel" technology and using advanced technology to plunder alien civilizations is itself a relatively cool story for people in most countries on Earth.

Although the film only shows "exploration" and "confirmation" and does not elaborate on the subsequent narrative, the audience can imagine it!
Especially some small countries that are aware of their strong "military power" sincerely think that it is very "feasible" to break out of the earth through "hyperspace travel" technology and occupy a planet with firearms or cold weapon civilization.

So this movie, very rarely, sold out in South Asia, the Middle East and other places, which was impossible in the past.

In Europe, North America and other places, there is a craze for movie watching.

The root cause is that in recent decades, classes have begun to solidify in countries around the world, and society as a whole lacks channels for upward mobility.

Although the story of "Lost on an Alien Planet" is fictional, it is like a cool novel, which makes the audience feel happy and gives them more thoughts.

In the North American market, the film finally grossed $6.49 million, surpassing "The Avengers" in 12, but lower than "Avatar" with $09 million in 7.6 and "Titanic" with $97 million in 6.58.

Even so, this achievement shocked the entire Hollywood.

Because according to the current box office results, the film's global box office has exceeded 3 billion US dollars.

It’s just that because there are still many countries where the film has not been released, its final box office performance cannot be confirmed, but the overall outcome has been decided.

In Hollywood, many media newspapers have published articles, some praising Jiang Heng's new film for being groundbreaking, or creating a movie universe comparable to "Avengers".

Some criticized it harshly, believing that it was just that the original novel of "Alien Path" had a good setting and outstanding special effects.

As for the story, it's really not that well written.

The simplest question is, how big is the area of ​​Panda Country on the entire earth, and how big is the territory and control area of ​​the Beautiful Country? Why would aliens land in Panda Country?
He descended on countries and regions such as Europe, Japan, and South America, and in the end it was the United States' military that dealt with the matter, right?
Moreover, the United States has more experience in dealing with aliens. How many times have wars been fought in so many film and television works?

……

Once such a report came out, it really reminded a number of Hollywood film giants.

We can remake it, and write a story about the Roxolans landing in North America, Europe or Japan, and finally being captured by the American army. Then, they master the "hyperspace jump" technology and go to the alien planet.

Jiang Heng’s film is very subtle and does not include any plot about interstellar colonization, but we can do it, maybe the audience will like it more!

The only regret is that the film and television adaptation rights of "Alien Path" were bought out by Jiang Heng for a large sum of money.

The only options left for them are to pay Jiang Heng to obtain authorization to remake the film, or to directly infringe on the rights and file a lawsuit in the future.

Another thing is that, by using the setting of "hyperspace jump" technology, a brand new story can be made. The bosses and executives of several major Hollywood film companies are really envious and jealous. With a box office of more than 3 billion US dollars, who wouldn't be envious!

The current situation is that each of the Eight Immortals is crossing the sea, showing off their magical powers.

Columbia Pictures was the first to take action, with CEO Sanford Panitch flying directly to Beijing to meet with Jiang Heng.

"Hi, my old friend, congratulations on becoming the first person in the world to have a single film gross over 3 billion US dollars worldwide!"

Sanford Panitch seemed very enthusiastic. When he saw Jiang Heng, he opened his arms and gave him a hug.

"Thank you, I guess this is just my luck!"

Jiang Heng smiled and said politely, then asked Sanford Panitch to sit down and asked him why he came.

"Old friend, I think this story has great potential in the future, and I want to develop it with you!"

"Joint development?"

"Yes, to be precise, it's a remake, just like the remake of Infernal Affairs!"

"You mean, you want to make a movie where the alien general is in the United States, and then...!"

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"Yes, I think it is very necessary to make such a film, because as far as I know, Warner Bros., Universal Studios, Disney, etc. are all gathering script teams to prepare to 'follow' this film!"

Sanford Panitch spoke in unstandard Chinese. After thinking for a while, he said, "Yes, it is just following the trend. Just like your once glorious Hong Kong movies, when a movie is very popular, a bunch of followers will come out immediately!"

Jiang Heng couldn't help but frown when he heard this. Follow the trend? This is really difficult to deal with!

After all, those big companies all have professional screenwriter teams, and they will definitely avoid risks as much as possible in the script.

Even if Jiang Heng wanted to sue in the future, it would be difficult to litigate.

The legal team in North America is also notoriously expensive.

There are many cases where both the plaintiff and the defendant lose money after a lawsuit, but the lawyer team gets rich.

Thinking of this, Jiang Heng suddenly pondered: "Since North American film producers can think of this, other countries...!"

Many people from other countries say that at least the special effects in the films produced by India are pretty good.

Sue them? Forget it…

Jiang Heng had never really considered these things before. After all, his film was a special effects blockbuster. It would be too costly and risky to follow suit. Companies with lesser strength would not even dare to think about such a thing.

The global box office of more than 3 billion US dollars really made the Hollywood giants jealous, otherwise such a thing would not have happened.

Jiang Heng thought about it and finally said: "Well, let me think about this matter first and give you an answer tomorrow!"

Sanford Panitch did not expect to convince Jiang Heng right away. He smiled and said that he would wait for his good news tomorrow, and then went to the headquarters of Columbia Pictures in the mainland.

Jiang Heng, on his part, called in Du Huan, Li Xiaoping and a number of the company's senior executives to discuss the matter together.

Being "followed" by a bunch of Hollywood moguls is something I've never encountered before! (End of this chapter)
