Chapter 1112 My dear son(2/2)

Then Yaya carried Duoduo to the house and went to sleep first. Chen Hao wanted to follow him, but was snatched by Xiaohu.

In the end, Chen Hao had to stay alone in the empty room.

...

Chen Hao stayed at home for only three days, and then went to the crew of "Wonder Woman". After all, the foreigners are just in the Spring Festival.

Before, due to marriage, the annual meeting had been delayed a lot of time. In addition, the Spring Festival was celebrated, so Chen Hao had to speed up his progress and join the group as soon as possible.

Time soon came on March 20, 2015. On this day, Liangtianchi Film released its first film of the year, "Difference 2".

The second work of the series "Difference 2: The Rebel", adapted from the best-selling teenager literature "Difference 2: The Rebel", has won North America's championship this week, driving Disney's fantasy masterpiece "Cinderella" to its second seat.

Because "Rebels" successfully retained Miss Cindrira's youth consumer group, the North American market was basically the same as last week, up 1.3%, and the total revenue remained at around $130 million.

North American weekend box office rankings (2015.3.20-2015.3.22):

No. 1, "Difference 2: Rebels", with a weekend box office of US$54.02 million, and a cumulative box office of US$54.02 million, a cinema released in 3,875, and a production cost of US$110 million;

Second place, "Cinderella", with a weekend box office of US$34.49 million, Disney, with a cumulative box office of US$122.04 million, with a 3,848 theaters released, a year-on-year decrease of 49.2%, and a production cost of US$90 million;

No. 3, "Strike Revenge in the Dark Night", with a box office of $5.11 million on weekends, and Warner Bros., with a cumulative box office of $19.77 million, with a 3,171 theater list, a year-on-year decrease of 53.6%;

...

After the debut of "Cinderella", one of the "Three Breaking Points of Spring", last week, "Rebels", the second Breaking Point, also made its debut, and Ryotianchi Film opened 3,875 theaters for "Rebels".

In the end, he won $54.02 million with a single-player score of $13,942, which is basically the same as the previous "Difference" (54.6 million).

This result ranks second on the film list of Xiaohu’s solo films, second only to "The Divergent" (54.6 million).

Beyond "Air Crisis" ranks first on the films directed by director Robert Svenker.

It ranks 18th on the list of best-selling literary adaptations for teenagers, second to 8 Harry Potter movies, 5 Twilight movies, 3 Hunger Games and "The Divergent".

Just like works such as "Harry Potter", "Twilight", and "The Hunger Games", once the adaptation of best-selling literature for teenagers is completed, its commercial performance will be basically qualitative, and several films will follow similar box office trends.

Unless there are special circumstances, such as the box office rise in the finale effect, the Mockingbird's hard split leads to the box office decline, etc.

The same is true for the "Difference" series. The box office of the two films released so far is basically the same. I believe that the final accumulation will not be too large (about 150 million). In this way, the overall pattern of best-selling adaptations for teenagers has taken shape.

The Wizard Vampire Hunger Games formed the first group, which is characterized by the box office of over 100 million yuan/eventually accumulated between 300 million to 400 million US dollars.

The divergents, the mobile maze, and the legend of Narnia formed the second group, which is characterized by a cumulative box office of over 100 million, but it may still be cut in half.

"Posey Jackson", "Ende's Game", "Holy Grail Artifact" and the host's beautiful creature memory teaching, etc., form a third group, which is characterized by basically killing one movie, but the possibility of being resurrected by TV dramas is not ruled out (for example, "Holy Grail Artifact").

Most of the popular teenagers who are now popular are close to postmodern dystopia. This type of work often has three major themes: the contradiction between totalitarian politics and personal freedom; the progress of technology (including magic) and the alienation of man, and the imbalance between man and nature.

Coupled with the young protagonist's growth and cultivating emotions in adversity, the hearts of a large number of young readers have been successfully captured.

While earning commercial value, the author also ensures a high level of talent.

The Divergent series strictly follows this concept, but I believe many friends have the same feeling - why is the "Diffgent" style inexplicably smaller than "Harry Potter" and "The Hunger Games"?

The fundamental reason is the difference in world view architecture. Although Harry Potter did not "break" the existing social system like other works, he built a magnificent new world in the shadows and enjoyed grafting in both worlds.

The Hunger Games did it more thoroughly, from the comprehensive shattering of existing social cognition to the final "revolution" unfolding vigorously, every step is on the drum beat of dystopia - is the new social order better than reality?

OK, then is it worth the sacrifice for this? No, then should the revolution be carried out?

In contrast, the background setting of "divergents", the factional division of politicians, soldiers, peasants and scientists is at best a pioneering career solidification (only a "more" pioneer, because you can choose it yourself), and can only be regarded as extreme deduction of the situation in the real society.

In other words, it is the light rebellion in dystopia, and it lacks the one-stop effort to smash the old world.

Think about the depression when the Magic Iron Triangle escaped and Katnis's obscure life, the style of the "Difference" can be called "relax and happy".

This also destined that the "divergent" could not become a front-line member such as a wizard or a game.

Because of the inherent fan group and Gundam A- reputation, it is reasonable that the "divergents" eventually accumulated more than 130 million. If they perform well in the future, it is possible to tie the first part of the series.

"Difference 2" media comprehensive review scored 42 points, with 32% freshness in rotten tomatoes. 44 people cast fresh episodes and 95 people smashed rotten tomatoes. CinemaScore scored A-, and the popularity was like the polarization of the first part of the series.

"For those who love continuous action, dazzling special effects, and solid performances of young actors, "Rebel" won't disappoint you!"

"Compared with the first part of the series, "Rebels" has made great progress, and the production budget has increased even more grand!"

“More efficient and mature than the previous one!”

"The director kept the whole story vivid and loud, leaving behind a lot of gunfights, an astonishing number of corpses and broken glass effects everywhere!"

"Although there are many shortcomings, the extremely oppressive rhythm makes most people have no time to take care of!"

...

There are also many sounds on the back.

"Like most popular adaptations of teenagers, it is a silly love and an inexplicable connection!"

"If the protagonist of this kind of film is a male, it must be "Harry Potter". If Lily Collins appears, it will be "The Hunger Games! If Little Fox appears, it will be "Differences". Other parts are the same!"

"This video has no meaning, to be precise, the first one is actually meaningless!"
Chapter completed!
