"A phenomenal director! The young Xuan had defeated his countryman, Li An!”
"Magic Chu's magic is still there! Two movies in a row became popular!"
"Xuan vanquishes all doubts. He can play with horror movies and musics! What genre will the next challenge be?"
Among the many films that were released during the holiday season, La La Land was originally the worst film by the media.
The Hulk was the most anticipated movie.
However, after the release of the movie, the two extremes reversed. La La Land's box office sales soared.
It earned 70 million USD in the first week of its release and won the box office title in the first week with an absolute advantage.
In the second week, it broke through 100 million! A movie that would become the top of the pyramid of film history!
It had been the box office champion for three consecutive weeks, and the North American box office alone had already exceeded 400 million USD.
Infinite Pictures had also discussed the overseas distribution strategy with the various country's distribution companies.
In the upcoming Christmas season, La La Land would be released worldwide!
With such results, any doubts would be useless. On the contrary, everyone was following the trend and bragging about La La Land.
Xuan became the idol of the younger generation in North America. He represented the younger fan base.
The young forces of the film industry were crushing the conservative and old-fashioned " old forces ".
On the other hand, the box office earnings of " The Hulk ", which had been highly anticipated, were truly dismal. The total box office earnings had yet to exceed 100 million dollars.
I'm afraid Marvel and disney can barely break even this time. It's impossible to make a profit.
Logically speaking, with the high popularity of the Marvel hero Hulk, it should at least attract many comic fans to watch it in the cinema.
However, on one hand, young people preferred La La Land;
On the other hand, Director Li An's Hulk was too artistic, focusing on the spiritual world of Bruce Banner and ignoring the refreshing rhythm of the film.
"Director Li An's delicate emotional expression is indeed not suitable for this brainless popcorn film.”
"When discussing the relationship between father and son in superhero movies, both fans and non-fans are silent.”
"It's actually a good movie, but it's not enjoyable to watch. I just want to see Hulk smash things."
"Let's think about it. What would happen if Xuan directed Hulk?”
This time, Xuan was even better in his direct conversation with his fellow seniors.
However, when he was interviewed, he still expressed his appreciation for his seniors.
"Li An is a good director. This 'Hulk' needs to be watched calmly. I hope we can work together if there's a chance."
Li An praised Xuan's La City.
"I'm very happy to see the works of the Chinese brothers. The next day, I went to the cinema to watch it. I was shocked! To be honest, I'll never get tired of watching La La Land.”
……
While Xuan was setting off a wave of singing and dancing in North America, Infinite Pictures was busy with overseas distribution.
Paranormal Activity, La La Land, and even The Silence of the Lambs, which were about to be released, had basically been approved for overseas release.
Other than the closed film market, the major film markets in Europe, Australia, Asia, South America, and Africa all welcomed Xuan's films.
The well-informed film distribution companies of various countries had long wanted to accept Xuan's film.
He had been the box office champion in the North American market for a long time, which made people's eyes turn red.
Therefore, the negotiations between the various countries were very smooth. With a " preferential price " that was lower than the market share, it was successfully released worldwide.
La La Land was officially released on December 23rd before Christmas Eve.
The Silence of the Lambs would be released on December 30th. It would be released in North America and the world at the same time.
Paranormal Activity had already been streamed in North America.
The pirated resources in Parallel World were almost completely eradicated.
They could either watch it at the cinema, on the official streaming platform, or buy a genuine CD.
Countries with a relatively prosperous horror film market still had a chance to release some of them.
For example, the Siam Nation and the Eight Western Nations.
Of course, these movies excluded one market, the world's largest film market in the Dragon Country.
Paranormal Activity was completely out of the picture.
There was hope for La La Land to be released.
The Infinite Pictures that Xuan had established in Dragon Country was already in operation.
With Zhao Jingmai helping to keep an eye on the capital, Xuan was at ease.
The company was 90% owned by Xuan, 5% by Zhao Jingmai, and 5% by Bona Pictures.
With Bona Film's distribution channels, Xuan's films could be released more smoothly.
'La La Land' and 'The Silence of the Lambs' didn't have any Chinese actors and were filmed overseas. They couldn't be considered co-productions and could only be considered imported films.
Originally, only China Film and Huaxia were qualified to import movies.
However, Bona Film was very likely to get the "third license" recently.
With Bonar's help, even if Xuan didn't co-produce, he would be able to smoothly screen in the Dragon Country market.
Unfortunately, La La Land and The Silence of the Lambs would have to wait for some time.
If nothing unexpected happened, he would be able to meet more than a billion compatriots from the Dragon Country after the Spring Festival next year.
Xuan, who was far away in Luo Shengdu, was dumbfounded when he heard Zhao Jingmai's report.
He had been a hands-off manager and handed everything over to Zhao Jingmai. He didn't expect her to do it so beautifully.
"I thought it would take three to five years for it to be released in the Dragon Country. I didn't expect you to move so quickly.”
"Of course, I'm awesome, right?”
Zhao Jingmai proudly claimed credit on the phone.
"Awesome, awesome. It's all thanks to you."
Bona Pictures owning 5% wasn't a big deal. Xuan didn't care about this bit of shares.
As long as it could help his movie to be released smoothly, the money spent was worth it.
Zhao Jingmai, a young girl who had only debuted for less than two years, was able to sit down and negotiate with Bona Film.
It seemed that there was definitely someone backing him up.
In her previous life, the person behind her was the " godmother of the entertainment industry ", the number one female manager, Sister Wang Jinghua.
Parallel World should be similar.
But Xuan didn't say it out loud. He praised the little girl and the other side laughed happily.
Just as he hung up the phone, a familiar voice sounded in his ear.
"Chu, who are you talking to? Friends from the East?"
Elizabeth Olsen's pretty face was almost plastered to Xuan's face.
She clearly heard a young lady on the other end of the phone.
Unfortunately, they were both speaking in Chinese, so she couldn't understand a word.
He flirted with Zhao Jingmai and was caught red-handed by Sister Ao.
"Yeah, she's a friend from the Dragon Country. The film company there entrusted her with managing it." Soon, my movie will be released in my hometown.”
Sister Ao's sixth sense told her that something was wrong. She looked at him suspiciously and smiled sweetly.
"That's great. It's a pity that our compatriots can't see such an outstanding work of yours.”
In fact, the Dragon Country's Internet was already spreading that a mysterious Chinese director seemed to be killing everyone in Hollywood.
"Who is Magic Chu? Xuan-Chu?”
"It's probably some Chinese American director, like Wen Ziren or Lin Yibin.”
"I saw some North American students say he's Xuan.”
"Xuan? It couldn't possibly be a boy band that had been banned, right?”
"Hahaha, how is that possible?"
Even the former ESO fans had heard the news.
Xuan was a director in North America and had dominated the box office consecutively?
If this was true, it would be better to believe that Wang Yuan won the Grammys.
