There are 3,022 openings. This is the first time for a Chinese film to be released in the United States. The highly anticipated Hero has only opened in more than 2,000 locations. This is due to the arrangement of Miramax Pictures. "Hero"
The success of "Painted Skin" gave Mira's top management full confidence.
Although Mira is owned by Disney, former president Harry is the emperor of Hollywood. He is a legend who can drag 80% of the judges to California for vacation before the Oscar selection. The Harry brothers left Mira at the end of last year.
company, this has a huge impact on Mira Company.
In order to reverse the company's crisis, Mira Company had to place its hope in "Painted Skin" and arranged so many theaters for "Painted Skin".
On May 7, "Painted Skin" was released simultaneously in North America and Asia. Due to the rush, no premiere was held and it was released directly. During this time period, "Mission: Impossible 3" grossed 30 million U.S. dollars at the box office in two days after its release.
"Mission" also took in more than 7 million at the box office in its second weekend, and "American Strange Story"'s more than 4 million can be ignored.
The North American rival of "Painted Skin" is "Mission: Impossible 3."
On this day, at the China Grand Theater, Shao Shuaijun, Li Xiuxiu, Yang Ying and others bought tickets to watch the first show of "Painted Skin".
The movie theater was not full, but it was not too crowded. Shao Shuaijun and his party found a good place to sit down. American movie theaters are very strange. They don’t sell tickets according to seats. Everyone needs to grab them by themselves. Could this be the so-called people’s pigs?
While waiting, Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu chatted.
During this period, Li Xiuxiu was flying back and forth between the United States and China, and was extremely busy. Shao Shuaijun also forced her to come over to watch a movie today.
"Sister Xiuxiu, how is your investigation of the scarf I told you about?"
Li Xiuxiu grabbed the popcorn and reluctantly took two bites. The popcorn here was salty and she was not used to it: "The scarf you mentioned is a good idea. I have already ordered the Time Network team to start developing the Time Scarf. United States
Here, there is an odeo company that has launched a service similar to a scarf called Twitter. However, their company’s management team has a very ambivalent attitude towards Twitter.”
"oh?"
"Jack Dorsey and Noah Glass of Odeo tended to promote Twitter. But the other partners were not very interested. So they left Odeo with Twitter and founded Obvious to specialize in business. I think we can
Provide it with venture capital."
Shao Shuaijun nodded: "Twitter has a very bright future. You must invest in it. You can decide the details." As a reborn person, Shao Shuaijun still knows a lot about Twitter. This is the American version of a scarf, although it is not as good as face wave.
The investment return is great, and it is also a potential stock worth investing in. After all, the Internet era in 2006 has passed, and there are not many good investment projects to be found.
"I feel that sometimes your vision is really accurate. You said it was time to acquire Jiahe, and we succeeded in acquiring Jiahe. You said you invested in "Twilight", and "Twilight" became
Our cash cow. You are not good at business, so why are you so evil?" Li Xiuxiu reached out and rubbed Shao Shuaijun's hair and asked with a smile.
Shao Shuaijun raised his brows: "My eyes can see through the future... Is this a cool statement?"
"It's so strange to pull the wind!"
We talked about business and life, and soon the movie started.
The door was closed, the curtains were closed, the lights were turned off, the advertisements on the big screen were cleared, and the cinema suddenly became quiet.
After a brief moment.
What catches the eye on the screen is a golden desert, with its ups and downs and the sky full of glow, making people feel like they are immersed in it. The picture taken by the panavi private camera is so clear and shocking that it seems that even the fine sand particles in the desert are
You can tell. Just from the beginning, the momentum of a blockbuster film comes over you.
"Wow, where is this place? The desert in China is so beautiful." An old beauty exclaimed.
As the camera went on, a group of cavalry appeared in the desert, perfectly showing the march in the desert in front of the audience. Without letting the Americans enjoy this beauty, the movie quickly advanced to the camp attack scene, and the first ** part arrived.
.In the camp, Xiao Wei, played by Zhou Xun, was carried into the camp by the bandit leader, who teased and dug out the bandit's heart.
"Oh, yes! This beautiful oriental beauty can steal the other person's heart and still make her laugh. It's so subversive!"
The old beauty was shocked by the contrast between Xiao Wei's before and after.
While she was digging out her heart, Wang Jiajun rushed into the camp, using various assassination methods, various teamwork, and various sharp movements, in the high-speed camera, firmly grasping the heart of the old beauty. It has already been
Shao Shuaijun, who had watched it hundreds of times, was not in the mood to watch the movie. Instead, he looked around nervously to see the American's reaction.
"Painted Skin" went through a lot of revisions by him, but he was not completely sure whether it would be a success.
Fortunately, after watching for a while, Shao Shuaijun gained some confidence. The old American was completely attracted by the real and hot plot of this scene. There were no more whispers or the sound of eating snacks. Shao Shuaijun even saw an old American girl.
, grabbed a handful of popcorn and put it to his mouth.
But after waiting for a full minute, the popcorn hadn't been stuffed into my mouth yet, just caught in my hand.
In the exciting soundtrack, the Wang family army defeated the sand bandits, and Wang Sheng appeared in the camp in shining armor. Xiao Wei immediately looked at Wang Sheng pitifully. Wang Sheng put the knife behind his back and stretched out his hand: "Here, I will take you.
Walk!"
"Oh, she is a bad person, be careful!" The old beautiful girl waved her hands excitedly and scattered popcorn all over the audience in front.
The spectator was also waving: "General, you are stupid, she is a killer!" He didn't even notice that he was sprinkled with popcorn. Instead, he naturally pinched one from his collar and stuffed it into his mouth.
The plot advances rapidly.
The Wang family army returned to the city after victory, and Xiao Wei entered the palace. At this stage, the rhythm of the original version of "Painted Skin" was greatly reduced, it seemed too lengthy, and it was difficult to distinguish the priorities. It deliberately portrayed Pang Yong, played by Donnie Yen, and made the plot less interesting.
It went astray. Shao Shuaijun's version of "Painted Skin" reduced Pang Yong's role in this plot.
The most important thing to depict is that after tracing, Xiao Wei's identity was found. He is a fox demon. In order to pursue beauty, he shed his fox skin and replaced it with beautiful human skin. This is how the painted skin came about. Here
, Shao Shuaijun also modified the bugs in the original version. In the original version, Xiao Wei is clearly a fox, but he wears human skin like a ghost, which is inconsistent.
"Flowers, trees, birds, animals, insects, fish, as long as they are alive, they all have the opportunity to open up their spiritual wisdom and turn into monsters. Xiao Wei in the palace is a fox in the form of a fox. For the sake of beauty, he puts on human skin and has to act with a living human heart. Provisions!" Xia Bing, a descendant of the exorcist played by Sun Li, said to Pei Rong, explaining Xiao Wei's background.
"Is that Xiao Wei the monster in Eastern legend? It's incredible that he can even wear human skin. The Chinese people's imagination is very powerful!"
Some old Americans can’t help but praise it. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
