Once again the movie works.

From the media to netizens to fellow directors, they are all full of praise.

Just wait for the national release on December 12.

At the same time, Wan Xiaohu took "The Wind" to Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and other places to hold several premieres to build momentum before it was released.

Every day, there are more praises for Wan Xiaohu.

Especially during this period, "Chain Saw" was released in North America.In the first week, US$1828 million ranked third. In the second week, under the crushing of "The Matrix 3: Matrix Revolution", it still got US$1109 million, the third week was US$644 million, and the fourth week was US$288 million. In just one month, it raked in a total box office of 5046 million US dollars in North America.

At the same time, several major overseas markets have also begun to release the film, and the global box office directly hits [-] million U.S. dollars.

"Dark horse, absolute dark horse!"

The performance of "Chain Saw".Get the whole of Hollywood to take notice.

While some Hollywood blockbusters have had more opening weeks than "Saw," considering that it only cost $200 million, "Saw" is a marvel of a commercial film.

"Who is Wan Xiaohu?" The US "Variety Show" magazine asked, and gave a detailed introduction.

"A "Chain Saw" made horror movie fans call it a classic. It used human weaknesses to create horror, opened up a new direction for horror movies, and was a big dark horse at the box office. And the director of the movie. It’s Wan Xiaohu who came to Hollywood for the first time to direct a film and hadn’t even been reported before.”

"If you pay attention to Asia, you will know that a Hollywood movie is his first time, but Hollywood is not his first time. Two years ago, a Chinese science fiction film landed in Hollywood and handed over a $2810 million answer sheet, becoming The best achievement of a domestic director in Hollywood, and now Wan Xiaohu has refreshed this achievement by himself."

"For us, Wan Xiaohu is an unfamiliar director, but in Asia, he is the most appealing director in the past three years. Many works have set off trends in Asia. He is a director who is as famous as Zhang Yimou in Asia. , and. He's only 23 years old."

"...It can be solemnly said that sooner or later, Wan Xiaohu will become another great Chinese director in Hollywood. Let us wait and see!"

Hollywood and Chinese movies are relatively far away, and the news is not smooth.

Those who pay attention to Chinese movies are Hollywood filmmakers and some big media. "Chain Saw" has indeed gained fame, but it has only attracted a little attention from these media.After all, no matter how good the results are, it can't hide that "Chain Saw" didn't even win a weekly championship.

A box office of more than 5000 million US dollars is nothing in North America.

Therefore, with the decline of the movie, Wan Xiaohu's name shattered like a bubble.Except for those who cared, most of the audience immediately forgot who Wan Xiaohu was.

Hollywood can ignore Chinese films and filmmakers, but China values ​​Hollywood very much.

Wan Xiaohu immediately had countless halos on his head.

"Domestic Film Master", "Mainland Director Conquering Hollywood", "Hope of Chinese Film", "Another International Director Ten Years Later".

In the hustle and bustle, as a horror film, "Chain Saw" has not been released on a global scale, but only in a few large-ticket warehouses that allow it to be released.In the end, it achieved a super box office of 5518 million US dollars in North America and 1.03 million US dollars in the world, which made Sasha Entertainment make a fortune.

At the same time, Wan Xiaohu also became the fourth Chinese director with a single film breaking $[-] million.

The first place is of course Wu Yusen, a master of violent aesthetics movies, with "Broken Arrow" with $1.5 million, "Face Changing" with $2.45 million, and "Mission 2" with $5.46 million.

The second place is Li An, with $1.3 million for "Sense and Sensibility," $2.1 million for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," and $2.5 million for "The Incredible Hulk," which was released this summer.

The third place is Zhang Yimou. Although "Hero" has not yet been released in North America, the combined box office in Europe, Asia and other places has already exceeded [-] million US dollars.

"We are also a member of the billionaire director." Wan Xiaohu thought with trepidation.

At the same time, on December 12st, "The Wind" began to be screened nationwide.

0226 [You ask me what I think] the fifth change

What kind of movie is called success?

"The Wind" can tell you the answer.

Everyone knows that this movie, praised by the Prime Minister, must be a money-making machine, but when "The Wind" was actually released, everyone still couldn't accept it.

It's too exaggerated to attract money.

Major cities across the country are reporting the grand opening of "The Wind", which is no worse than the release of "Hero" back then.

More importantly, after the audience walked out of the cinema, they were basically full of praise.

"Good shot.", "This is the main theme movie", "Li Bingbing's acting is great", "Sun Honglei is a man", "The movie of Wan Xiaohu in the country can be watched", "Zhang Yimou should come and see for himself what is called blockbuster".

Viewers who occasionally feel bad are basically focused on "a few scenes are too bloody", "don't dare to watch the Zhou Xun being tortured", "I'm scared to see the part where the rope slides".

Even Su Ya complained to Wan Xiaohu after watching the movie once: "Really, the filming is too bloody, it's so sad to watch."

Wan Xiaohu has been very coquettish these days, and the newly promoted billion-dollar director felt a little swaying when he walked: "Look at your little girl's potential, you are still the third generation of red, and this little scene scares you. "

"What's wrong with the third generation of red, the third generation of red has never seen blood, anyway, you are a bad taste, filming torture to torture the audience, a good classic movie, you must do these things."

"Could it be a revolution without bloodshed?"

"Anyway, you have a lot of reasons." Su Ya pouted, and she was the majestic boss of a big company.But in front of Wan Xiaohu, she would always show her side as a little woman.
