Chapter 1105 Amazing Box Office

That afternoon, "2012" was counted at the global box office on November 2, and the 4,500 screens brought Xiao Yunhai a box office of $638 million, causing an uproar in the entertainment industry.

Due to the small number of screens in Europe and the United States, it is difficult to obtain a ticket, and there are long queues at the ticket booth.

You must know that the ticket price of "2012" in Europe and the United States is 100 US dollars, and the theater is released 24 hours a day, which cannot meet the needs of movie fans.

"Damn, there are too few 3D cinemas. My girlfriend and I went to the cinema and waited in line for more than an hour, but we didn't even get a ticket."

"2012 is amazing. I watched it three times, and I was still blown away by the pictures and the immersive feeling. I wanted to watch it for the fourth time, but I only bought tickets for three days later. "

"I really don't know what those theaters are doing. They don't even have a 3D screen. It's really bad. I strongly urge Xiao to add 3D theaters."

The global box office of "Resident Evil" on the day reached 758 million US dollars. Although it is still much stronger than "2012", its potential and stamina are obviously not enough.

On November 3, the box office of "2012" still did not drop in the slightest, and it won 641 million US dollars, and the movie tickets for the next three days in all regions have been sold cleanly, so the box office can be maintained for at least three days.

The word-of-mouth continued to ferment, and there was an endless stream of fans who scored full marks.

"2012" has successfully aroused a movie-watching frenzy among fans around the world, and 3D movies have swept the world, with the exception of America, of course.

And "Resident Evil" has a box office of 688 million, which is definitely a good result at other times, but it is a pity that when put together with "2012", it is not even a little bit worse.

November 4th,

The renovation of more than 300 3D cinemas in Japan and South Korea has been completed, attracting countless moviegoers to watch at once, and the 24-hour screening is almost full.

The box office of "2012" on the day reached 675 million US dollars. With the opening of theaters in Japan and South Korea, the results of "2012" will continue to rise.

The box office of "Resident Evil" was 782 million US dollars. The reason why it did not drop but rose was mainly because Chinese fans contributed a lot to the box office. The film creators came to Huaxia in person and carried out a comprehensive publicity for "Resident Evil".

There are not a lot of fans of those superstars in China, and they have a special promotion. Although the boycott is still going on, many fans can't help but enter the cinema and watch "Resident Evil".

Their behavior immediately aroused wild criticism from many netizens.

"Yesterday, the box office of "Resident Evil" reached 104 million US dollars. I can't believe my eyes. Can Chinese movie fans have a little backbone?"

"Some people are so shameless. "2012" is so good-looking, even if you watch it back and forth seven or eight times, there are still people kneeling and licking Paramount's stinky feet. Are you sick?"

"Why do foreigners say that one Chinese is a dragon, and five Chinese are a worm, because there will always be traitors among us. The boycott of "Resident Evil" once again made fans around the world see our incompetence. Unity, shame."

"Everyone who watches Resident Evil will die for me. It's a fucking shame."

Under the condemnation of countless netizens, on November 5, the box office of "Resident Evil" fell again, and only won 37 million US dollars, and the global box office was 574 million.

And "2012" was 671 million, surpassing "Resident Evil" for the first time, and it still exceeded a full $100 million. You must know that this is still the result of the failure to release on a large scale in the United States, Japan, and South Korea.

In fact, "Resident Evil" is very good, if there is no "2012", it is likely to surpass "Aliens" and become the world's first.

It's a pity that people are more dead than people, and they are more expensive to buy and throw. When I came across the first 3D movie in history, "Resident Evil" was really not enough to watch. In all areas covered by "2012", "Resident Evil" was a complete defeat in terms of box office and word of mouth.

If it weren't for the lack of 3D cinemas showing "2012", which gave "Resident Evil" an opportunity, I am afraid it would not be able to achieve such results now.

Xiao Yunhai stayed in South Korea for three days. After seeing that more than 200 3D cinemas in Seoul had started showing "2012", he left with confidence.

However, he did not return to China, but flew directly from Seoul to the United States.

It was nine o'clock in the morning when he came out of Los Angeles International Airport. Xiao Yunhai didn't even return to the company, so he and Raul met Dalton Welch, CEO of General Pictures.

"2012" is popular all over the world, and the most anxious thing is general.

It is the only theater chain in the United States with a 3D theater. Once "2012" is released in the United States, it will not only bring them huge profits, but also the newly remodeled Universal Theater will be an instant hit.

Unfortunately, everything was ruined by the U.S. Department of Health.

Therefore, it is not Xiao Yunhai who hates the Ministry of Health the most, but General Pictures.

The reason why Xiao Yunhai flew directly from South Korea was also because he received a call from Dalton Welch, saying that there was a way to make "2012" show in the United States, so he hurried to Los Angeles.

In Dalton Welch's office, after a few polite words, the two went straight to the topic.

"Mr. Welch, can you tell me your solution now?" Xiao Yunhai asked.

Dalton Welch took a bag from a drawer on his desk and said: "In the Department of Health, the most vocal person against the release of '2012' is their minister, Stephen Moyer. Inside this bag is a document about Evidence of Stephen Moyer's corruption and bribery. I think you should be interested in it."

"That's great. With it, 2012 will be released soon."

Raul next to him looked at Xiao Yunhai with a look of surprise, but found that there was no joy in him at all.

Xiao Yunhai didn't look at the file bag on the table, just stared at Dalton Welch's eyes tightly, and said, "I only have 1,500 screens in America, but your General Cinema has 3,000 screens. A screen. Mr. Welch, I don't understand, why don't you sue him and give it to me since you have this thing. Does this Stephen Moyer have some background?"

When Raul heard this, he thought that it was indeed very suspicious that GM gave him this thing.

Dalton Welch shrugged and said, "No way. Behind this Stephen Moyer is an uncle who is a congressman in the US Congress. He has great power and has a very good relationship with my father. And there are other places where we rely on him. There are many, so although we are in a hurry, it is not good to tear up with each other for a movie."

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I see. But is it inappropriate for me to offend a member of parliament?"

Dalton Welch said with a smile: "There is no relationship between you at all. Even if it is offended, he has nothing to do. We are because of human affection, but you don't care. Besides, having this thing does not matter. It doesn't mean that it has to be made public. As long as the purpose is achieved, isn't it alright?"

Xiao Yunhai gave Dalton Welch a thumbs up and said, "General Pictures has handed over to you, and I am very optimistic about its future. Raul, make a copy of this thing, and then go there in person. The Ministry of Health handed it over to this Minister Moyer. Don't say anything, he will understand."

Raul nodded and said, "I understand."

Dalton Welch laughed: "Mr. Xiao, should we discuss the premiere of "2012"?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "Of course. Well, let's put the premiere on tomorrow night, and I'll send a plane to pick up the creative team of "2012". As for the location, I'll put it in your general theater."

Dalton Welch had a smile on his face and said happily: "This arrangement is really great."

For the current general theater chain, the most urgent thing is to become famous and recognized by movie fans. "2012", a movie that shocked the world, obviously fully meets its requirements.
