My Attic Connects To Other Worlds - v2 Chapter 139
In 2007, the total number of screens in the country was about 4,000, which is higher than that of the other world at the same time. But in another world, by 2020, the total number of screens has more than tenfold, exceeding 80,000.
So what was the highest box office in the Chinese market before Wang Huan’s “Three-Body”?
360 million yuan, a record set by “Titanic”, but a record set in 1998.
Now almost ten years have passed, and this record has not been broken yet.
At present, the highest box office record of a domestically produced film is “The Golden Armour”, which is 291 million yuan, which is a work two years ago.
But this year there is another Hollywood super blockbuster released in China.
It was released on June 15th, and in another world, this movie was released on July 3rd.
There is no doubt that this movie is another visual feast.
It’s almost the best among Transformers, and it’s definitely a great popcorn movie.
Of course, its box office is still inferior to “Star Wars Prequel.”
The global box office of Prequel 1 is almost 900 million.
The Transformers currently seems to have the highest box office of 700 million US dollars, but this is already a very staggering figure.
At least, the Chinese audience was fascinated and excited.
Because there have been countless people with emotion, after watching Transformers, I once again confirmed that the Chinese film industry lags behind Hollywood by 30 years.
“You said, “Three-Body” can have half the effect of “Transformers”?”
“Half? I’m very satisfied with 30%.”
In this craze, Transformers, a month after it was released in theaters, sold 280 million yuan in the domestic box office, second only to “Titanic” and “Full of Golden Armour”.
This result is already the best result of this year.
But no matter what, the popularity of the movie “Three-Body” is absolutely amazing.
The media has been hyping for two years, especially in the last half a month.
When many filmmakers were interviewed, they kept saying that the “Three-Body” movie was ahead of Hollywood for at least two decades.
I want to watch a movie on my knees.
These two sentences really aroused suspicion and heated discussions among the people.
No one believes it.
Not to mention foreigners, even domestic audiences can’t believe it, even Wang Huan’s die-hard fans can’t believe it.
Because this fixed mindset is too powerful, Chinese films are 20 or 30 years behind Hollywood, which is everyone’s perception.
You said that the three-body system was more than 20 years in Hollywood at once. You really don’t believe in ghosts, and you blow it too hard.
Everyone regards it as a hype.
The goal of the united hype by filmmakers across the country is to raise the box office of “Three-Body”.
But bragging will always be pierced.
When everyone enters the cinema, it is not the case, but will be even more disappointed and scolded.
Wouldn’t it be worse for the box office?
But no matter what, at midnight on July 18, all the movie theaters began to queue up.
Starting on July 18, “Three-Body” has directly exceeded 75% of the film schedule.
Especially in the zero-point field, almost 100% of the “three-body” ranked.
Moreover, in this era, online ticket sales have not yet prevailed. Although the computer network can already buy tickets online, the vast majority of people still go directly to the cinema to buy tickets.
Wang Huan has many fans.
Plus everyone is curious, what does this film that has been brewing for two years look like?
A movie that has invested more than two billion yuan is like a movie that has been blown to the sky by filmmakers.
Therefore, the attendance rate of the 0 o’clock field is very amazing.
And these audiences are also the most important. They are the group of people who love movies most, and they are also the source of word-of-mouth fermentation.
Of course, these audiences at Horizon Field are not only fans of Wang Huan, but also a large number of film critics.
To be honest, this group of film critics has always admired Western movies, and they are very harsh on domestic movies.
Whether it is a hero or a city full of golden armors, all they receive are criticism.
And the scoring is very demanding.
Therefore, there has always been a rumor that Hollywood movies will automatically increase by 1 point, and domestic films will automatically lose 1 point.
At least so far, the weight and voice of this group of film critics is still very high.
But ten years later, there is very little room for survival. It is basically the audience’s word of mouth that is the most important.
And Zhou Gongzi is a very famous film critic.
Each of his film reviews will be published in many newspapers and reprinted on many portal websites, and of course he will also write on his blog.
In short, each of his films is very heavy.
He watched the movie with a prickly heart, because he was not happy inside, so he would definitely wear tinted glasses next.
Cultural people, that’s how they go their own way.
In “Hero” that year, he scored 6.2 points. The city is full of gold armor, he scored 5.9 points.
He has also been paying attention to the movie “Three-Body”, and he has an attitude of looking down from above.
Because he has watched movies all over the world, and as a film critic, he feels that he has the right to speak in movies.
He felt that Wang Huan was a layman in the film industry.
Although he knew that Wang Huan spent a lot of money, the recent hype in the movie “Three-Body” made him annoying.
When a group of filmmakers were interviewed, they unified their calibre, saying what they said was 20 years ahead of Hollywood, and what they said they had to kneel down to watch a movie.
The hype is too much, it makes people hate it.
So in his heart, Zhou Gongzi has subtracted one point from the film’s rating.
Before the movie opened, he looked at the theater full of dangdang, and his heart was full of disgust.
He felt that to some extent, Wang Huan was morally kidnapping Chinese audiences.
If you don’t watch this movie, you are not patriotic.
He was thinking in his heart, who of this audience really loves watching movies.
A mature and democratic country should not use anything to kidnap people to do certain things.
It’s a pity, not everyone has his feelings and cognition.
The poor viewers were once again consumed by Wang Huan’s patriotic feelings.
Wang Huan, don’t care if you are a hero.
But I will still tell the truth tomorrow, if your movie is not good, I will unceremoniously debunk it, and unceremoniously give a bad review.
In this thinking.
The theater went dark, and then began to play the movie.
He put on the 3D glasses slightly impatiently.
What kind of 3D gimmicks are you playing?
The Chinese film industry currently does not have this technology at all, so it would be better to shoot 2D honestly.
This kind of film revolution should be given to the great **** like James Cameron. He knew that Cameron was shooting an unprecedented movie, a movie that could change the entire movie world, and he had great expectations for that movie.
And now this three-body, wearing the so-called 3D glasses, is probably completely cumbersome.
Started with a tilted head.
It’s the head tilt of Dream Pictures.
A picture of a meteor shower falling from the sky.
Damn it!
Caught off guard, Zhou Gongzi was taken aback.
Then, he almost instinctively shrank back.
Because the 3D effect is too strong.
Looking at the audience again, it seemed to be stunned.
Many people instinctively shrank back, and some even stretched out their hands.
Is this effect so awesome?
This title must have been produced by the most famous foreign company. Wang Huan said that the film will be produced in China, but he did not say that the company’s title is also produced in China.
This Young Master Zhou’s prejudice against domestic films has also deepened into his bones.
But to some extent, this can’t be entirely blamed on him.
Next, the movie really began.
A huge picture rushed to the face.
This…this color seems to be different.
It’s very impactful.
Ordinary movies, there is no such color.
Even the best Transformers this year, in order to save money, part of the scenes are carried out at night, so that the effect of special effects is lower.
Next, the movie screen entered the Greater Khingan Mountains.
This incomparably beautiful huge picture is really like an incomparable real scenery.
Many people once again exclaimed aloud.
This… this giant screen is too amazing, the key is that this color is too awesome.
Immediately afterwards, it was the Red Bank base that was completely built 1:1.
The real shooting from far and near is full of great impact.
Young Master Zhou knew how Wang Huan spent the two billion yuan.
The impact is really strong.
However, these are all real shots.
The most important thing about Chinese movies is computer special effects. Once it enters the movie special effects part, this movie will collapse.
Soon after!
The movie enters the Trisolaris planet.
There are only two words in Zhou Gongzi’s mind: I fuck.
This… is this a real-time shooting?
Or special effects?
When the first special effects feast begins.
That was the appearance of three suns, and the Trisolaran planet ushered in a huge disaster.
Hundreds of kilometers of ground burned, and countless people were dehydrated and turned into fibers.
What’s more frightening is that this scene is also in the end.
It was far and near, and then zoomed out again, looking down at the burning Trisolaran planet, and the picture kept moving.
The disaster scene of hundreds of miles is completely presented.
From lakes to mountains, from rural areas to cities.
The real one in the end.
Long shot for more than a minute.
The disaster of the entire Trisolaris planet is vividly interpreted.
At this time, Young Master Zhou certainly knew that this must be a computer special effect.
But… I really can’t see it.
This…this is more real than real.
This completely exceeded the limit of his imagination.
He couldn’t bear to blink his eyes, even holding his breath.
There are no distracting thoughts in my mind, while enjoying an unprecedented visual feast.
I kept screaming in my heart again and again: fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.
Finally, the special effects for more than a minute are over.
He was relieved.
Jiang Wen and the others did not lie, and Liang Jiahui and the others did not brag.
It’s really so awesome.
This… this is horrible.
Just now this scene has already killed “Star Wars Prequel” in seconds.
Zhou Gongzi has watched countless movies, and he is sure that no movie can have this level of special effects.
It’s so real.
More than real real.
Reality beyond imagination.
Next, like other filmmakers, he was constantly distracted.
The mind keeps reverie.
Obviously, I was watching an unprecedented movie, but I couldn’t control my mind to think about it.
That’s awesome.
How did you do it?
Immediately afterwards, the second porter effect visual impact came.
Qin Shihuang’s army of millions, playing the role of a human computer.
This picture is more shocking and more real.
For the first time in the movie, an array of millions of troops appeared.
There are cavalry, infantry, and chariot.
Everyone looks real, and the weapons and armor in his hands are so subtle.
After the army of one million was spread out, a whole picture of several square kilometers.
An unprecedented scene.
The point is that it is bigger than the 200,000 army scene of the Lord of the Rings, but it is true that I don’t know how much.
Because there are a lot of close-up shots in it, as if the camera sweeps across the face of every soldier.
Despite the speed, everyone looks like a real person. Their armor and weapons, and war horses are also real.
It’s still a mirror to the end.
Young Master Zhou really felt like crying.
He understands movies, so he knows how difficult it is.
In this way, he watched the movie in a daze.
Then, ushered in the fatal blow of special effects.
The extremely small 9-latitude protons spread out into an endless 2-latitude plane, and printed circuits on it became a supercomputer.
This special effect lasts for several minutes.
It’s not like a movie, it’s as if the whole process is real, and it’s completely filmed for you to see.
I can’t understand.
I also do not understand.
But… I was conquered.
This is the king bomb of special effects.
The whole process really exceeded the limit of many people’s imagination.
It’s really like a magic.
The key is to be complete and detailed.
It seems that every part is extremely detailed.
Even the plot in the original book is not so detailed.
203 minutes passed quickly.
The movie is over.
Still no one applauded.
After the movie, everyone sat in their original positions.
Young Master Zhou was also sitting in the position.
Then, he listened to the people next to him chatting.
“This…what story does this movie play?”
“It’s probably the content of the first novel of “The Three-Body”, the Trisolaran fleet is coming soon, and the earth is about to face its end.”
“Then what?”
“There are a lot of plots in it, I didn’t see it clearly, I don’t know what’s going on, and I’m always distracted.”
“Me too, I am distracted when I look at it, and my mind is always thinking, damn, it’s awesome. Fuck, fuck, this, how can this be done. Obviously I have already performed other content, and my mind seems to be still Stopped a few minutes ago, that extremely shocking scene.”
“Second brush!”
“It must be 2 swipes, and I will buy tickets tomorrow.”
The crowd walking out of the cinema was extremely excited, but ignorant.
Zhou Gongzi is a little strange, why no one mentions “Transformers”, why no one mentions “Star Wars Prequel”?
Shouldn’t it be compared?
He found that he was unwilling to mention or compare.
Because there is no need for comparison at all.
Walking out of the cinema, it was already more than 3:30 in the morning.
He should have taken a taxi home, but he just wanted to walk.
So he walked like this for an entire hour, not 8 kilometers, and walked to the house.
Still unable to sleep, I made myself a cup of strong tea.
Sitting in front of the computer, ready to write a film review.
As a result… I found that I couldn’t write it at all.
Sit for more than two hours.
Finally, he wrote on the blog.
After watching the premiere of “Three-Body 1”, I sat for two hours and couldn’t write a film review.
Just now my mother brought me breakfast and found me kneeling on a chair.
She is very curious, why should I write film reviews on my knees?
I don’t know why?
I didn’t have much to write about, because I didn’t actually watch a lot of the plot during the whole viewing process.
Completely distracted.
During the whole movie watching process, my mind seemed to lose its response, only the most instinctive response.
I fuck!
I fuck, I fuck.
Fuck, fuck, fuck!
This is the case from beginning to end.
And after watching those huge and shocking images, I kept thinking about it, and I was completely numbed by the shock, and then I was directly distracted and forgot to watch the next plot.
Therefore, I cannot write a film review.
I can’t score either.
I have only one suggestion for all the audiences across the country.
Hurry up to buy tickets, the best is IMAX3D, believe me you will kneel and watch the movie.
Some people asked me, how does he compare to “Star Wars”?
How does he compare to “Transformers”?
Don’t ask me this question, and I won’t answer it.
“Three Body” is unprecedented.
The first in the history of “Three Body”.
The unprecedented revolution in the film history of “Three Body”.
Just like that, I’m going to bed, and then get up to grab a ticket for the night.
After writing, Zhou Gongzi directly published a blog.
But he was too late.
The Internet has completely boiled over.
The technology of this movie is much stronger than the 2009 “Avatar”.
The big scene is much more shocking, and it is much more sci-fi, and the special effects are even more stunning.
After all, this is the technology of 2039, plus the final rendering and modulation of the Tavin star of the apocalypse.
This effect can be imagined.
And this is a Chinese movie, which has always received unprecedented attention and underestimation.
Therefore, the domestic sensation has far exceeded that of “Avatar”.
The audience who watched the premiere returned to the Internet.
He published various posts almost frantically, describing how frightened he was.
But without exception.
The most common words in your posts are: I fuck, I fuck.
Fuck, fuck, fuck!
This is not praise, nor praise, but shock.
Was shocked beyond compare.
Moreover, almost no one discussed the plot.
In the face of this amazing picture, big scene, special effects, and technological revolution.
Everyone ignored the plot for the time being.
After dawn the next day.
Newspapers, the Internet, television, and reports on the “Three-Body” movie are all over the face.
Overwhelming praise.
No, it was a one-sided shock to be precise.
Those who have watched the movie keep calling, keep sending QQ messages, and keep posting online.
Recommend people around you, be sure to see it, especially IMAX3D.
But at this time in the whole country, the IMAX screen does not exceed 15 yuan, most of which are still in the science and technology museum.
Then, great news came.
Several major science and technology museums across the country have announced their willingness to open their IMAX theaters to show “Three-Body”.
Back then, “Avatar” was very popular in China on the first day, but it didn’t really reach its peak until a few days later.
And “Three Body” almost exploded on the first day in China.
And his fare is also very expensive, ordinary tickets sell for 50 yuan, an average of 70 for 3D, and 120 for IMAX3D.
But it cannot be criticized for being too expensive.
Because it’s a full 203 minutes, which is twice the length of other movies.
Almost on the first day, there were already queues in theaters in first-tier cities.
The IMAX theaters lined up in a long line, directly on the square outside.
It hasn’t been a few years since the queuing up for watching movies.
July 19!
Almost everyone is waiting for a result.
What was the box office on the first day?
Can a miracle be created?
The best result in previous history was around 15 million.
This era is not like more than a decade later, the box office is almost real-time.
It takes several theaters to conduct statistics, and it will take at least a few hours for the data to be released.
Not only Wang Huan cares, but also other filmmakers.
The leaders of the Film Bureau, as well as the leaders of higher departments, especially the big leader who watched the internal screenings twice, also paid great attention.
He even stayed up all night without sleeping, just waiting for the number of the premiere box office.
“Did the numbers come out?”
“Still calculating, still calculating, coming out soon.”
The leaders of the film bureau, drink one cup after another cup of strong tea.
This first-day box office data is really important.
Before, they had no hope of defeating “Star Wars”.
But now that the movie is out, the quality is so defying, the box office may not be without the power of a fight.
“Why hasn’t the box office come out yet? It’s so slow, so difficult? Just add a few numbers.” The film bureau leader complained.
The people below are speechless, are these a few numbers?
There are more than 3,000 screens across the country, with a total of more than 13,000 shows a day.
“Being able to exceed 20 million is a victory. The best historical result before is 15 million.”
Of course, in another world, there is another data.
Avatar’s first-day box office in China was 36 million, an unprecedented historical record.
Waited for more than half an hour.
Suddenly, there was a sound.
“Director, the numbers are out.”
“How much?!” The leader of the film bureau abruptly stood up.
“46 million!”
………………………………………………
Note: The second update is on, and we have to go out tomorrow. But I will code words on the train, the update remains the same.
Gentlemen, do you still have a monthly pass? There are dozens of them, they are about to be exploded, so scary~!
