Chapter 506 Chinese-language movie global box office record! (The first update asks for a subscription!)
It was released in North America for three days, and the box office reached 1590 million, ranking No.3 on the weekend box office list. For a Chinese film with a production cost of only 2200 million US dollars, it is definitely considered a big or successful one.

No matter what contradictions there are within 20th Century Fox, it is enough to suppress everything in terms of absolute interests.

After all, those high-level and even CEOs are part-time workers. Every few years, a CEO of several giants will leave because they have not made money for the company.

On Monday, Fox won 2800 theaters for "The Martian", ranking fifth among the films in the same period, second only to "The Devil Inside", "Mission: Impossible 4", "Sherlock Holmes", "Mouse" 3", more than 100 more movie theaters than "My Family Bought a Zoo", which is also a dark horse.

The publicity aspect is also unequivocal, although the publicity budget of 1500 million US dollars is nothing to put on a big production.

However, it is not too small for a low-cost movie. News Corporation also owns TV stations, newspapers, and professional movie websites.

The publicity was done by Fox, and Tang An brought Cuncui just for fun, and took Yang Mi for a walk on Monday.

I went to see Paramount Studios, Chinatown, and the Avenue of Stars, experienced an indoor flight without using ropes, went shopping on Rodeo Drive, and ate beef dumplings with an unknown flavor.

After playing for a day, I was tired enough.

Tang An, who had just had a full meal, didn't want to move anymore, he just wanted to go to the hotel and have a good sleep.

He looked at the time, "How about it, have you played enough, where is the next stop, or go back to the hotel?"

Yang Mi looked around and found a large group of people gathered in a square in front of him, holding posters or something like that, and asked curiously, "Brother An, what's that place?"

"Pershing Square, there are probably celebrities coming to promote it."

Yang Mi took Tang An's arm and said, "Then let's go and see, maybe it's some big star."

Tang An took a look and said, "There are too many people, and the center of the square can no longer be squeezed in."

"We're just outside, just see who's coming."

All right, Tang An and Yang Mi walked towards the square, waited on the outside for a while, a few cars came by after a while, a dozen bodyguards cleared a way, and the Lord came.

It is Matt Damon, Scarlett Johansson, the hero and heroine of "My Family Bought a Zoo".

The scene was a bit noisy, and the Americans were unambiguous in chasing the stars.

People also saw it, and when they were about to leave, Paul Deason, the producer of the film, walked over with a cold face.

"Mr. Tang, what's the matter?"

Tang An didn't expect the producer to follow along during the promotion, and said with a slight smile, "It's okay, I just happened to see so many people around here, so I came to take a look."

"Let's go first if we have something to do, don't bother."

Tang An didn't say anything to him, just dealt with it and left.

Paul Disson looked at Tang An's leaving back with hatred. He is one of the producers of "Pirates of the Caribbean". Although he is not as good as a gold medal producer like Brusheimer, he is also a well-known figure.

Because of the disastrous box office failure of "Alien vs. Predator 2" a few years ago, North America only took more than 2000 million US dollars at the box office, and now it can only make some low-cost movies.

The cost of "My Family Bought a Zoo" was 1500 million, and the North American box office has already approached 6000 million. Originally, I was thinking about whether the box office could hit the [-] million mark, and returned to the big production with this result.

A "The Martian" took up a lot of Fox's resources, and "Mouse 3" is a series, and it can sell peripherals, which is also a key project of Fox.

This Monday, the release scale of "My Family Bought a Zoo" is already the lowest among the three Fox films, and it is almost impossible to break through [-] million.

"Mouse 3" Fox will definitely not give up, after all, it is related to the sequel.

Now he can only hope that "The Martian" will not have enough stamina to have a chance.

There are many opponents who hold the same idea, and the producer of "Mouse 3" Neil thinks similarly.

The third part set a new low for the series. Although there was no problem with profitability, it was definitely a failure.

But in the new week, "The Martian" still maintained a good trend.

400 million US dollars on Monday, relying on good word-of-mouth and the increase in the number of shows, the decline was only 30%.

A total of 4 million votes were received in the 1800 working days. Although several new films were released on the weekend of the second week, thanks to the increase in the number of screenings to 3100 movie theaters, the box office was still 2200 million in three days.

In other overseas markets, a total of 3600 million US dollars was won this week.

In the sixth week of domestic release, it once again won 1700 million yuan in a single week.

$7840 million in a single week worldwide.

The North American weekend box office champion was taken away by the newly released thriller action film "Contraband", which made 2450 million in its first week of release.

"The Martian" ranked third with 2200 million views, and the animated film "Beauty and the Beast 3D" ranked third with 1770 million views in its first weekend.

This "Beauty and the Beast" is not the later one, it is an animated movie, and the latter one is an adaptation of a live-action fantasy movie.

The addition of the two new films did not have much impact on "The Martian", but other films were greatly affected.

North America earned US$4000 million in a single week, and the global US$7800 million in a single week. "The Martian" once again won the second global film market weekly box office champion.

Over time, more and more people watched it. Slowly, even with Fox doing publicity and public relations, negative comments continued to appear.

Many racists even lashed out at Tang An, claiming that he was a robber who came to the United States to rob, and used American novels to make movies to earn money for Americans, calling on Americans to boycott "The Martian"

If you adapt one of your novels, you become a robber. In the 80s, Japan bought Columbia and Rockefeller Center one after another. More than half of the real estate in Los Angeles was owned by Japanese people. 10% of the real estate in the United States was bought by Japanese people waving checks. Oh, why didn’t they say that Japan was a bandit at that time, and many Americans also claimed that the United States was becoming the 41 counties of Japan.

In the third week of the film's overseas release, the box office in North America was just over 4 million in 1100 working days, and the overseas box office was flat at 1050 million because of the addition of two new countries.

In 4 days in China, it got a box office of 400 million RMB.

As of February No.20, the 27th of the Lunar New Year, "The Martian" has already won 6690 million US dollars in North America.

The European, Asian and other markets add up to a total of 6860 million US dollars.

The mainland box office reached an unprecedented 14.31 billion yuan.

This is basically the case in China. The single-day box office has fallen below the million mark, and it has been released for a long time. It is basically hopeless to break 15 billion.

It has only been released overseas for 14 days. Although the previous trend cannot be guaranteed in the third week, there is still potential to be tapped.

All markets in the world add up to a total of 3.395 million U.S. dollars, surpassing "Edge of Tomorrow" and setting a new global box office record for Chinese-language movies!
