In the cinema, the audience all stood up and looked at Bai Jifei who was stunned and Shao Shuaijun who was talking eloquently on the stage.
"When we were preparing to make the film, we also encountered a lot of criticism and doubts about a romance film shot with IMAX-3D technology. Everyone definitely thought it was a hype, or just a gimmick. Now after watching the movie, I don't think so.
I boast that what I saw were not those erotic shots, but lotus flowers sublimated from the mud. Technology and truth coexist, which is my most profound feeling."
Smiling, Shao Shuaijun continued: "I have always been a director who pursues technical excellence. I tried to shoot an IMAX-3D movie as early as two years ago, but due to technical limitations at the time, it did not take shape. Since then, I have never found a suitable script.
, to use IMAX-3D technology. Until one day, Lao Bai convinced me."
He patted Lao Bai on the shoulder: "To be honest, this story is a mixture of sadness and joy. I don't know how the outside world views it. At least I personally feel that this is a good movie that emerged from the mud without being stained. We are walking in this
In this world, we will always make mistakes, fall, cry, and go on a path that is completely opposite to what we planned. But as long as we can look back, even if some pain is unavoidable, we can still get happiness. I think,
This truth is a bit more profound for Lao Bai. Lao Bai, is it ready?"
After being buffered by Shao Shuaijun, Lao Bai calmed down and said with a smile: "It's almost done."
After handing the microphone back to Lao Bai, Shao Shuaijun returned to his seat and continued to listen to Lao Bai's speech.
"I used to admire Shao Shuaijun, he was my idol." Lao Bai's voice was still trembling, "Because he is very rich and can make movies as he wants. In my understanding, such a life is a free and unrestrained life." Zuo Yong
Right hug, beautiful woman in a beautiful car, how can you be more proud of yourself than this?
It was not until later that I suddenly discovered that Shao Shuaijun and I had opposite pursuits. I sought wealth, fame, fortune, and pleasure, while he pursued the art of film. In private, he was an ordinary person and did not attend Vanity Fair banquets.
, do not associate with beautiful celebrities...
If you go back and look it up, you will know that I was once an incompetent little director who used vulgarity to pretend to be elegant. When I was proud, I was surrounded by everyone and lived an ideal and unrestrained life. More often than not, after being disappointed, the tree fell.
The Hozen dispersed, and everyone pushed it down. I don’t know if I have fully realized it, but I want to say that I said goodbye to my previous life completely, from before I started filming this movie.
Finding someone to love and living an ordinary life is a life I couldn't imagine before. At this moment, I feel peaceful.
At the beginning, I had decided to go back to my hometown to sell leather shoes with a woman. I thought this would be the whole process for the second half of my life. During those days when I saw myself clearly but was still confused, I created "
IMAX-3D Yu Pu Tuan" script. Wei Yangsheng said that he understood the four words "True Love is Precious" in the human flesh Pu Tuan.
Isn't this a truth that I have personally understood.
Fortunately, I found Shao Shuaijun with my last bit of dedication to the movie. Even more fortunately, he agreed to my shooting request. I don’t know how excited I was at that time, I only know that I didn’t think about it all night
Go to sleep. Maybe you can't understand how disappointed a director is when he puts down the microphone, and how excited he is when he picks up the microphone again.
For more than half a year, I was busy shooting, because IMAX-3D is a very difficult technology, and often because of a small glitch, the entire crew had to work continuously for 24 hours or 48 hours without getting any rest. I am young
I am no longer young, and sometimes my body really can't bear it, but my spirit is very excited. I have never felt so much like I have a purpose in life and an abundant life during filming!
Okay, I'm already incoherent, I don't know what I want to say. Thanks to Shao Shuaijun, for giving me another way of life; thanks to the crew, your efforts have brought me today; thanks to Dream Chaser Jiahe, for vigorously promoting
Movie; I would like to thank New Electronic Technology, IMAX Company, and Summit Digital Matte Company for their strong support of film technology; I would also like to thank every audience and media friend present. I hope the movie does not disappoint you. Of course, I would also like to thank you
My wife, your support has helped me find happiness again.
Finally, I wish everyone in the world and lovers will eventually get married! Thank you!"
Whoops, the applause started again, and the movie ended.
"Lao Bai, do you have the demeanor of a speaker?" Shao Shuaijun and Lao Bai walked backstage together, while the rest of the crew saw off the guests with smiles.
"I can only express my feelings. If you ask me to give a serious speech, I will definitely not be able to say a word."
"Haha." Shao Shuaijun smiled, "How's it going? The movie is over. Do you have any new ideas or plans?"
"I don't know. The box office hasn't come out yet, so I don't feel at ease."
""IMAX-3D Yupu Tuan" is absolutely indispensable at the box office. It has a good story and good effects. It makes no sense if it is not popular. Rest assured."
After the movie ended, the power of the media people who left the show also showed off, and they praised the visual experience and good plot of the movie. Before the movie was released, no one knew what kind of effect IMAX-3D would be like, but tonight
After that, I believe everyone will be conquered by IMAX-3D.
"This is an epoch-making movie, this is a breakthrough in film technology!" - "Ming Pao" took the lead in firing the first report.
"I don't know if this is the return of romance movies, but the movie is enough to conquer anyone, including ladies and gentlemen, who will be stripped of their disguises and fall into the arms of "IMAX-3D Yu Pu Tuan"." - "Sing Pao"
Not to be outdone, it was highly praised.
"The premiere of the world's first IMAX-3D live-action film was a great success, with endless applause. Director Bai Jifei and producer Shao Shuaijun came on stage to express their gratitude, saying that this is not a romance film but an art film, and the audience all recognized it!" - "Next Weekly".
"A romance film with a wonderful plot, both in terms of technology and story, shows the director's intentions. The powerful IMAX-3D will be a guarantee for the movie's box office." - "Apple Daily".
Amidst the praises, the morning show on the morning of the 29th ushered in the official release. Despite the age limit for the audience of Fengyue Movies, major cinemas were still very popular from morning to evening. Especially the Dream Chaser IMAX-3D in Kowloon
The flagship store is packed with seats.
A 200 Hong Kong dollar movie ticket at the ticket office was sold to 1,000 Hong Kong dollars by scalpers, but the supply was still in short supply. However, the only IMAX-3D theater has a total of 403 seats, and one batch can only accept this number of people.
.Fortunately, there are several IMAX theaters, which somewhat alleviates the audience's needs.
After the statistics were collected on the second day, there were 56 theaters showing the movie in Hong Kong, and the box office on the first day, including the midnight show, totaled HK$4.56 million.
As soon as this data came out, the whole of Hong Kong immediately became excited.
This is the third first-day opening in the history of Hong Kong films. The first is "Spider-Man 3" with 7.39 million Hong Kong dollars, and the second is "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" with 6.8 million Hong Kong dollars. Closely behind
The one is "IMAX-3D Yu Pu Tuan", which is also the highest record for a Chinese-language film in Hong Kong, surpassing the HK$4.04 million record of "Kung Fu".
What's even more frightening is that the opening day of "IMAX3D Yupu Tuan" is not a holiday, but a Thursday that is not a holiday. If the opening day is set on Saturday and Sunday, this figure will definitely increase a lot. So called
A large part of the eye-popping crazy data can be attributed to the Dream Chaser IMAX-3D flagship store.
On the first day of box office, the IMAX-3D flagship store alone contributed 1.7 million Hong Kong dollars. Several theaters were all full. Coupled with the high ticket prices, the box office contribution was huge.
The first day of opening was 4.56 million Hong Kong dollars, which is just the beginning.
Soon the movie was released one after another across Asia. Some areas may not have IMAX-3D, IMAX theaters, or even 3D theaters, but the box office is still booming.
Hong Kong, with a box office of HK$26.5 million in the first four days, became the box office champion this week. Baodao, with a box office of NT$12 million in the first three days, strongly topped the list. South Korea, with 450,000 moviegoers in the two days of the weekend, easily surpassed "Thumper"
"Heartbeat" had 380,000 moviegoers in South Korea in its second week, taking the top spot.
In Japan, it even earned 500 million yen with 420,000 moviegoers in two days, strongly reaching the top spot. This is also the best opening performance in the Japanese film market this year. It has to be said that Japanese actors added a lot to the film.
There are too many points.
For a whole week, the Asian film market was dominated by two movies. One was the most luxurious romantic movie "IMAX-3D Jade Pu Tuan" in history, and the other was the pure love movie "Heartbeat" which bucked the trend. One romantic movie, the other pure love movie.
Love, I have to say, is a wonderful combination, as if black and white Tai Chi has taken Asia by storm.
Of course, "Pumping Heart" did well at the box office, but it was just good. The most glorious thing was this romance film. It was a feast that revolutionized the visual effects of movies.
Faced with such exaggerated film results, film distributors from various countries who were still hesitant called one after another, requesting that "IMAX-3D Yupu Tuan" be released in their own countries. Australia, New Zealand, Italy, France, South Africa, Canada, Brazil...
The storm has brewed and begun to show its power!
The momentum of "Heartbeat" quickly disappeared under "IMAX-3D Yupu Tuan", and by mid-May, its journey in Asia also ended. It failed to get a release in mainland China, but the global box office still ended up being
Reaching US$112.5 million, he successfully exceeded 100 million, allowing Shao Shuaijun’s money-attracting magic aura to shine again.
However, the object of the world's attention is no longer the success of another pure love movie, but "IMAX-3D Yupu Tuan", a model of new film technology.
After two and a half weeks of release, relying on the May Day crowd from the mainland, the Hong Kong box office has accumulated HK$58 million, surpassing the HK$61.28 million of "The Girl We Chased Together", and is about to top the box office record of Chinese-language films in Hong Kong.
. Baodao, Singapore, South Korea, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand, and the whole of Asia received a total of 400 million yuan in two weeks.
Super platinum, super crazy data.
"IMAX-3D technology is crazy!"
Even the Asian version of Time Magazine was conquered by the charm of the movie and devoted two full pages to introduce the movie plot and IMAX-3D technology. This storm is destined to break all theorems! (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, The novel is better and updated faster!)
