You Don't Understand the Happiness of the Director

Chapter 398: Breaking 100 Million on the First Day, I’m Talking About US Daole! (2, 4600 Monthly Tickets)

185 million on the first day (including midnight shows), this is definitely a new single-day box office record in the mainland, and the previous record was 100 million (including midnight shows) for "Twilight 4". In just half a year, "Twilight 5" has greatly broken this record.

This amazing box office data is being discussed online.

Netizen "Yue Fenglong" said: Director Quan is here to test the limits of the mainland market. 185 million on the first day is simply amazing! What does this data mean? Let's put it this way, the box office of "Twilight 5" in one day makes this movie rank eighth in the annual box office, the ninth is "Drug War", and the tenth is "Human Fireworks"!

Yang Mi likes this analogy very much. Humph, Liu Yifei's total box office is not as good as her brother's in one day, so what are those Tianxian fans proud of! Humph!

Yang Mi didn't stay up late at night to watch the midnight show. Although she also likes Brother Quan's movies, beauty sleep is more important. She doesn't want to age prematurely.

However, today she will organize company employees to book a private theater to watch "Twilight 5". The movie is so popular that there is no need to worry about no one watching the golden show, so they booked the morning show with a relatively low attendance rate.

As a result, the cinema was still crowded, and Yang Mi thought everyone was working on Saturday.

This is China, while the data in North America is a little behind. When the movie was released on the first day, Wang Quan and his team were still promoting it in New York, and witnessed the scene of the cinema being crowded with people, which was a scene that Wang Quan had never seen before.

Moreover, "Twilight 5" is the largest opening scale of all Wang Quan's works in North America!

It reached a huge 4,460 theaters!

This number broke the opening scale record of "Iron Man 2" of 4,390 theaters, and the opening scale of all Wang Quan's previous movies did not exceed 4,000 theaters.

At this moment, both 3D theaters and ordinary theaters are supporting this movie in their own way, allowing a wider range of people across the country to see this movie.

Of course, it is also related to the fact that it is a cold period now and there are no competitors. Before the arrival of "Harry Potter" next week, all American theaters are counting on "Twilight 5" to make a lot of money, so the support is unprecedented.

Taylor Swift will go back to Los Angeles next. She still has some work to deal with. Wang Quan chose her between her and Xiao K in the evening. They didn't do anything else but talk about music, life and practice.

Day after day.

The next day, Taylor Swift went her way. Wang Quan took the film team to take her private plane to Chicago, one of the three largest cities in the United States.

Before boarding the plane, Wang Quan received a call from Dorothy in the car.

"Good news, good news!"

Wang Quan pressed Xiao K's head, "The box office is good, right?"

Dorothy said happily, "More than good, you set a record again!"

In fact, the box office data of 90.3 million on the first day of "Twilight 4" is almost the ceiling of the single-day box office in North America. Although the number of theaters is slightly less, only more than 3,900 theaters, it is the hottest time of the summer season, so it is actually difficult to go to the next level.

If it weren't for the incident of the little werewolf, it is highly likely that the box office of "Twilight 5" will decline on the first day of the November schedule, but the stamina will be stronger.

"Is it over 100 million this time?" Wang Quan guessed. If it was only over 90 million, Dorothy would not be so excited.

"Hey, you guessed it right," Dorothy said, "109 million on the first day! David, you are the god of box office!"

Wang Quan said modestly, "Thanks to Taylor in heaven. Okay, no more talking, we are going to board the plane."

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back to celebrate at home, take good care of little K."

Wang Quan looked down and said, "Well, I took good care of her."

On the plane, because of Robert and others, Wang Quan and K Jinlian restrained themselves a lot.

The news of the first day box office explosion of "Twilight 5" has spread. Pattinson also congratulated Wang Quan, and Clara is looking forward to Wang Quan's box office to set a new record.

Wang Quan is very calm, because he does not think that the box office of this movie can exceed "Inception", whether in North America or globally.

Because combined with the box office data of the original time and space of "The Dark Knight" and "Fast and Furious 7", even if the death of the core character can add some bonus, it is impossible to add too much. After the initial momentum is over, the subsequent growth rate will inevitably slow down.

"Inception" is still the third highest box office in film history and the second highest in North America. It is not so easy to break.

However, it should be said that the box office earned by "Dragon Head-raising" from "Twilight 5" is likely to be much higher than that of "Inception".

Because of the box office sharing agreement with the theaters, the share between the distributor and the theaters in the first two weeks is 6:4, the third and fourth weeks are 5:5, and the rest is 4:6.

The bulk of the box office of "Twilight 5" must be in the first two weeks. Dragon Head-raising can get more box office in these two weeks. After the fifth week, even if the theaters share more, there will be little money.

The box office growth curve of "Inception" is very gentle. It is not explosive at the beginning, so the theaters take more box office. As one grows, the other shrinks, and the box office revenue of "Twilight 5" is naturally more considerable.

The 20th is the day of the Golden Horse Awards in Taiwan. Twilight 5 was not released in Taiwan at the same time, and will be released next Tuesday, so Liu Yifei and her mother watched it in Hong Kong on the 19th before coming here.

The translation of the Hong Kong version is weird, called "The Vampire Twenty".

The chairman of the jury of this Golden Horse Awards is Huang Jianye, who has nothing to do with Huang Jianxin, but there are familiar faces such as Ning Hao, Shu Qi, and Ye Tong among the judges.

The hosts were the two people from Kangxi Is Coming. Cai Kangyong was dressed in strange clothes and put a bird cage on his head.

Liu Yifei was not alone at the scene. She saw her "old classmate" Huang Bo. He was the best actor last year and was invited to present the awards this year. Unfortunately, Mimi was not invited.

Of course, the best actor from last year is here, and the best actress from last year must be here too. Li Bingbing just took a two-day break and went to Taiwan. She hasn't recovered yet. It's not that she is tired from filming, but mainly because she was tired on the last night.

Liu Yifei greeted her enthusiastically, and Li Bingbing also approached her affectionately to chat. There was no sign that she cheated on the girl in front of her.

Well, this is called acting.

Even if she felt guilty, she couldn't show it on her face, and she didn't plan to steal her boyfriend, so there was no opposition between them.

In addition, Liu Yifei's friend Wan Qian also came, which made Liu Yifei even happier. After all, there was a generation gap between her and Bo Ge and Bing Bing Jie, and she was more suitable in age with Wan Qian, so there were more topics to talk about.

Wan Qian was nominated for Best Supporting Actress, but not for "Human Fireworks", but for the mistress who played several possible roles in "The Invisible Guest".

Liu Yifei felt that the acting skills of this crew were all very solid, so Mr. Wu Xiubo was also nominated for Best Actor. Although he played such a bad guy in the movie, he seemed gentle and elegant in real life. Well, he should be a good person.

This year, the Best New Director was newly established. Xue Xiaolu of "Ocean Paradise" was nominated. She is also the director of "The Family of Mountain Runners" and a teacher of Beijing Film Academy. Liu Yifei and her are also old acquaintances.

Wang Dao's main films for this year's Golden Horse Awards are "The Invisible Guest" and "Human Fireworks", and "Ocean Paradise" is just a side job.

Xue Xiaolu knows that she is a supporting role today, but she has a script with royal bloodline like "The Family of Mountain Runners". She feels that she may become the protagonist next year or the year after!

The awards ceremony officially began. "Human Fireworks" first won the Best Original Score. A Kun, the young composer, became famous in one battle. He was busy composing the soundtrack for "Ghost Blowing the Light", but he came to the scene in his busy schedule because he knew that he had a high chance of winning.

Then "Human Fireworks" started the harvest mode, winning four awards in a row, including Best Costume Design, Best Art Design, and Best Photography.

And "The Invisible Guest" also won the Best Original Screenplay, which was also Wang Quan's first Golden Horse. He and Cao Baoping co-wrote the screenplay.

Next was the Best New Director Award. Liu Yifei glanced at Xue Xiaolu.

In addition, Wang Quan's deputy director Li Weiran was also nominated for the award with "The Battle of Shama Town".

However, neither of them won the award. The winner was He Weiting from the Taiwanese movie "Taibei Sunday".

Both of them clapped with relief.

Xue Xiaolu: I have "The Family of Paoshan People", so I'm not afraid.

Li Weiran: I have Ghost Blows Out the Light, no...wait, I haven't~

Then it was the Best Supporting Actress, Liu Yifei held Wan Qian's hand and cheered her on.

Zhang Jingchu, who was not far away, was also a little nervous and expectant.

Well, the supporting actress is the supporting actress, and it's okay if she can win the award. Her acting skills are well-known in the industry, but she has not been recognized by mainstream awards so far. She feels that her luck is too bad, and now she doesn't expect the best actress, but the best supporting actress is fine.

This year's supporting actress contenders are all very capable, but Wan Qian and Zhang Jingchu didn't laugh to the end. The final winner was Hao Le from The Fourth Painting, that Qin Huairu.

The Best Supporting Actor is still related to Liu Yifei, and Teacher Tao Zeru, who played the village chief Wang Fugui in Fireworks in the World, was shortlisted.

The Golden Horse Awards are being broadcast live on the movie channel. In a hotel in Jinling, Ni Ni is watching it with her bestie Zhang Mo.

When she saw Tao's old face being swept by the camera, she immediately stood up and applauded the dean.

However, when she saw Liu Yifei, who was accidentally swept by the camera, her expression became unnatural again.

Alas, she was sorry for her after all, but if anyone should blame her, she should blame herself, Wang Quan was innocent!

Soon the award was announced, and the winner was Tao Zeru!

He played a funny village chief who bravely pursued a twilight love, which was a funny role that Tao Zeru rarely played.

Ni Ni jumped three feet high with excitement, "Old Tao is good!"

Zhang Mo said with a smile, "Wang Fugui, isn't this the alias of Director Wang Quan~"

"Yes, it should be Director Huo who deliberately teased him."

The small awards were all awarded, and the next is the highlight.

First, the best actress, the camera swept over Liu Yifei's beautiful face again, and this time it was Wan Qian's turn to encourage Liu Yifei.

In addition to Liu Yifei, there are also Tang Wei, Xu Fan and Teacher Arya on the other side of Wan Qian. She looks simple and doesn't look like an actor. Cao Baoping chose her because she had few works and was a relatively unfamiliar face to the public. This role does not need a well-known actor, otherwise it would not be able to deceive the audience at all.

Of course, not only must the face be unfamiliar, but the acting skills must also be good.

Not far away, in the crew of "Tangshan Earthquake", Feng Xiaogang also sat upright with a serious face.

Damn it, the Golden Horse Awards actually gave "Earthquake" three nominations, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Visual Effects. If it weren't for his wife's face, he wouldn't bother to come.

And he hasn't won any award so far. If the leading actress is not given to Fanzi, he will really be angry.

Huang Bo and Zhang Jiahui went on stage to present the awards. Huang Bo saw the seriousness of Director Feng, but it was a pity that he didn't have the final say on who the award was. You have to find Ning Hao for this matter, he is a judge.

"The winner is Teacher Arya for "The Invisible Guest". Congratulations!"

Although Feng Xiaogang applauded, his face was already gloomy. Xu Fan next to him was disappointed but still managed to smile. Arya's acting was indeed very good. She had seen it and admitted it, but she really worked hard to play the role of Yuan Ni in "The Great Earthquake".

She is from Jiangcheng, speaks Tangshan dialect in the movie, and has to play such extroverted emotions. It really took a long time after the filming to get out of it, as if she had given up her own child.

There was no big controversy about Arya winning the award, but the next best actor made mainland netizens say they couldn't understand it.

What, Ruan Jingtian? !

Isn't he an idol drama actor? He seems to be only 28 years old. He actually won the best actor award from three mainland actors, Ni Dahong, Wu Xiubo and Qin Hao?

Yang Mi in front of the TV also felt that it was unreasonable, "He can win the Best Actor Award, so it's not too much for Xixi to win the Best Actress Award!"

Zhang Tianai next to him smiled but didn't say anything. I don't know if you are praising Liu Yifei or insulting her.

Continue, the Best Director Award.

This award was won by Cao Baoping ("The Invisible Guest"), but he himself did not come to the scene because of his heavy teaching tasks. Wan Qian accepted the award on his behalf. Fortunately, I spent a lot of money to rent a beautiful dress today. Hehe, I finally got a chance to show my skills.

The last award is the Best Feature Film.

The five nominated movies are "The Invisible Guest", "Fireworks in the World", "Seven Days After My Father", "When Love Comes" and "Dialysis", three from the mainland and two from Taiwan.

The award presenters are the biggest names at the scene, Cheng Long and Li An.

Li An has been doing so-so recently. His last movie didn't make much noise, and the Taiwanese media no longer boasts about the glory of the Chinese, because anyone with eyes can see that the only director who can deserve the title of "the glory of the Chinese" is Wang Quan.

However, his peers in the film industry still respect him very much, especially Taiwanese filmmakers, who still regard him as a guiding light and a role model in the industry.

To be honest, although mainland films participate in the Golden Horse Awards to gild themselves, they will inevitably become a stepping stone for Taiwanese films. After all, Taiwanese people are definitely more likely to be judges.

So Cao Baoping did not come, but Huo Jianqi did come, mainly to bring his wife here to travel and spend a vacation, and then think carefully about what to shoot next.

Li An opened the envelope, and Cheng Long read out, "The winner is "Human Fireworks", congratulations!"

Warm applause broke out at the scene. Liu Yifei's Taiwanese fan club members had been lying in ambush at the scene, waiting for Liu Yifei to win the award and applauding desperately.

Although she missed the Best Actress, she won the Best Picture, which is also a victory!

Amid applause, Liu Yifei, Wan Qian, director Huo Jianqi and his wife, producer Du Yang, composer A Kun and others all took the stage. This was an honor for everyone, but it was a pity that Wang Quan was not here...
