Chapter 871 A New Life Is Coming
Overseas media praised Zhou Xia a lot, all kinds of admiration, it seemed that he was regarded as the god of Chinese-language commercial films.

The domestic mainstream media does not advocate personality cult and does not have such an exaggerated title, but it also pushes him to an unprecedented level.

Previously, I made a film review about the arrival of Zhou Xia's era, and he will lead Huaxia films to the world, predicting success.

These words were recognized, and the media began to generally mention Zhou Xia's era, Zhou Xia's Chinese film leader and other words.

The movie channel reports continuously on the box office record and the number of viewers of "Sword" every day. The entertainment news of various local TV stations is also the first domestic and overseas news of "Sword" every day.

Other portal websites and video websites are naturally more exaggerated, and they are even more unscrupulous about Zhou Xia's flattery.

Godfather of China Entertainment, God of Chinese Commercial Films, Pioneer of Chinese Films...

Yang Ma's news was 30 points, and when "Sword" domestic box office exceeded 50 billion, and the global box office totaled more than 20 billion dollars, she made a three-and-a-half-minute analysis report on "Sword" and Zhou Xia.

""Xianjian" opened a door for the export of Chinese culture and opened up a new type of Chinese-language film output. As this movie was shown in various parts of the world, proper terms such as "Xianxia" were widely used.

Zhou Xia perfectly combined Xianxia culture with new film technology to create an oriental Xianxia world that has shocked fans all over the world. Since its overseas release in Asia and Europe, the overseas box office has accumulated more than 55 billion yuan, which has surpassed the mainland box office. In the first three days of its release in North America, it took in a box office of 9000 million US dollars... and accumulated 20.4 billion US dollars, becoming the third box office in global film history, and will surpass in the future...

As the country grows stronger, the economy grows rapidly, and the domestic film market is booming, domestic filmmakers are also forging ahead in cultural output. The new generation of filmmakers represented by Zhou Xia has made great strides forward and achieved remarkable results. "

Zhou Xia looked at these important news and videos intercepted by Xiaobai with her mobile phone, feeling very calm.

Since the success of "Sword of Heaven" in Europe, such remarks have appeared in the domestic media long ago.

He has become accustomed to the bombing for more than ten days now, and he is a little numb.

It really opened up the genre of Xianxia for Chinese-language movies in the global market, and Zhou Xia was actually a little unexpected.

The purpose of the idea and the achievement of the result are two different things.

I don't know how many visions in the world have turned into fantasy in the end.

When he filmed "Fairy Sword" and "New Detective", he never listed success overseas as his first goal.

What he considers is how to make a high-quality commercial film, and then he will start to consider the global market in terms of publicity.

The basic value support in his films are all the current universal values, and there will be no superfluous other things.

In "New Detective", it is the police who stick to their duties, safeguard the law and the people, courage and justice; in "Sword and Sword", it is family, love, courage, good and evil.

Even his film "Starting Line" with a realistic education theme is a topic common to the whole world, such as family, children, and education.

These are themes that audiences around the world will understand and be moved by.

This is the most basic premise for any film to be exported to different cultures and countries.

Otherwise, no matter how gorgeous and cool the special effects are, no matter how famous the star is, they cannot be recognized by more people.

Cameron has only made two films, why did each of them become a phenomenon and cause a global sensation?
Love is an eternal topic for human beings, and his two films will have a shocking legendary love.

The touching and poignant love across classes in "Titanic"; the love across races in "Avatar".

Of course, in addition to love, there are other cores, such as sacrifice, responsibility, greed, people and the environment, and so on.

But the touching love in the movie is always the most moving and remembered by the audience.

Years later, people will forget many plots in the movie.

But I will never forget the classic romantic flying shot of Jack and Rose on the bow, and I will never forget the scene where Jack gave up his life jacket, gave up his position on the life raft, told Ruth to live forever, and slowly sank into the icy sea water .

People will never forget that in Avatar, the heroes and heroines of different races touched their fingers, and together they flew on the beautiful Pandora star on a fantastic bird, walked through the magical forest, and entered the mysterious Avatar tribe...

"Zhou, what are you thinking?"

Zhou Xia was submerged in personal thoughts unknowingly, at some point the eldest cousin opened the door and stood at the door watching him.

"It's nothing." Zhou Xia sat up, looked at her suspiciously, and came to him so openly?

"Zhou, your plane is not bad. This bedroom is so big."

The eldest cousin closed the door and came in, and sat next to Zhou Xia.

The bedroom is actually not that big, only fourteen to five square meters, but of course it is not small on an airplane.

Zhou Xia didn't wait for her eldest cousin to come up to her, she stood up and walked out of the bedroom.

Unless the taste is changed, he will get tired of eating the same burger a few times.

"Zhou, you—!"

Seeing Zhou Xia leave her behind like this, the eldest cousin was so angry that her teeth itch, but after all there was not much space on the plane and there were so many people, she didn't dare to pester her.

…………

It was already three o'clock in the afternoon on August 8th, China time, when the plane landed in Shanghai.

Zhou Xia invited all the main creators of "The Expendables 3" and Li Lianjie, who had been waiting in China to promote the movie together, to have a meal together.

Everyone's time is precious, and the promotional activities of "The Expendables 3" in the Mainland began in the evening.

Lionsgate Films and producer Stallone, in view of the fact that the box office of the first two films in the mainland is higher than that in North America.

This time, we attach great importance to the promotion of the mainland.

Long before the film was shot, the contracts signed with the actors contained a clause for three days of publicity in the Mainland.

In addition to going to Xiangjiang and Wanwan for half a day each, this time I am really sincere to domestic movie fans.

In the promotion in Asia, Zhou Xia suddenly became the protagonist, and Stallone gave up the C position on various occasions.

Zhou Xia didn't refuse either. Xiahua Film and Television had invested in this movie, and he got the box office share anyway.

On August 8, at midnight on Friday, "The Expendables 22" was officially released in three places on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

In the mainland, 31.5% of the film schedule was obtained, and the film schedule of "Legend of Sword" also dropped to 33%, and the remaining 34% was divided into more than a dozen other films.

Facts have proved that it is reasonable for the theater to arrange films in this way.

Over the weekend, "The Expendables 3" earned 4.16 million box office, and "Legend of Sword" earned 4.34 million box office. The box office revenue of the two films accounted for 83.3% of the box office revenue in the Mainland.

"The Expendables 3" was not a big hit in the first week in the Mainland, but it has an excellent record.

The main reason is that Zhou Xia is now able to attract the box office for "The Expendables 3" in North America because of the momentum of "Legend of Sword", let alone in the mainland.

But the film itself has its own problems, and domestic audiences are not satisfied with it.

Many fans and film critics even claimed that Zhou Xia was a bit too consumed.

Even though he doesn't have too many roles in the movie, the posters in the mainland occupy the c position, and the promotion is mainly about him, and even his name as the action director is on it.

Zhou Xia naturally knew this situation, he was indeed a bit over-consumed this year.

The second part of "Sword of Heaven" will be released at the end of the year.

Therefore, in the face of interview requests from various important domestic media newspapers, Zhou Xia only accepted live interviews with people from People's Daily Online, and rejected all others.

Finally, after finishing the promotion of the two films, Zhou Xia returned to the company and summoned the main creators of the "I'm Not the God of Medicine" project, production assistants, casting directors, executive directors, location directors, photographers, etc. People communicate sincerely, try to explain clearly what they want, and let them do it again.

After being busy for three days, Zhou Xia had to get up again and go to the United States.

Because Sophia's due date has arrived.

A new life related to him will be born, and he will have a new and different identity.
