The final box office of "The Wandering Earth" was set at 6.6 billion, an auspicious number.

However, in Xu Jia's view, this has basically reached the peak of the potential of the Chinese film market. The theater chains are only so big and the number of moviegoers is so large. If you want to grow further, you have to wait for updates.

The box office revenue of nearly one billion US dollars not only caused an explosion of public opinion in China, but also caused unrest in the overseas film industry.

If it were a movie like "Wolf Warrior 2", they might not be so uneasy.

But "The Wandering Earth" is a science fiction film, a genre film that Hollywood regards as its home territory. Unlike "Wolf Warrior 2", which is a patriotic military film, science fiction films have a global audience.

This means that as long as Jiaxing continues along this path, it is not unreasonable to encroach on Hollywood's global market.

This is what scares them.

However, this is a consensus within the industry. In the public sector, there is basically no talk about "The Wandering Earth" in regions other than Asia. Even the United States' internal ranking of global movie box office rankings excludes movies from China. outer.

Obviously, they are tacitly using public opinion to block Jiaxing and do not want Jiaxing to break out of China.

Among them, Hua Yi, who had always been against Jiaxing, was favored by these people.

After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Villa in the suburbs of Beijing.

Wang Zhonglei's face was gloomy. This time he summoned people in his circle to discuss the matter.

There were only a few people who didn't think of it, and everyone no longer recognized him as the so-called leader of the Beijing circle.

And all of this stems from the disastrous failure of "Fortress" and the great success of "The Wandering Earth".

In everyone's opinion, failure is okay. Who has never lost to Jiaxing?

But a game like "Fortress" that failed miserably to the point of complete failure is really shameful.

Even those of them who were in the same circle as Wang Zhongli felt that they were being engraved on the pillar of shame.

Huayi's "Fortress" welded the door to domestic science fiction shut, while Jiaxing's "The Wandering Earth" kicked it open.

The comments from netizens are so touching.

"Brother, we got a call from Disney. They will cooperate with us in promotion, and the resources of "Mulan" will be upgraded to S level and released globally. It will compete with Jiaxing's "The Meg". We We haven’t lost, we still have a chance!” Wang Zhongjun rushed in and shouted.

His face was full of ecstasy. He thought he had reached the end of the road, but he didn't expect that there would be a turn of events. With the strong support of Di Shini, what was Jiaxing?

"Oh, think about it. "Mulan" is originally a joint venture project between us. They have a bigger stake. Publicity is their job. Even if they win, they will just survive."

Wang Zhonglei sees it much more clearly than his younger brother. Even if the box office of "Mulan" surpasses "The Meg", it will be Disney's victory, not their Huayi's.

At most, with this result, Huayi's underwear has not been exported, and it still has some face, but what's the point in Jiaxing's strength?

"It's different this time. It's not just Disney. Listening to them, the whole of Hollywood has become more vigilant about Jiaxing. They used to think that Jiaxing is another Jiahe, but "Wolf Warrior 2" and "The Wandering Earth" The success of a high-grossing movie made them realize that the nutrients Jiaxing has gained from the Chinese film market are enough for the latter to enter the global film and television industry. This is something that the Hollywood giants cannot tolerate. As long as we can give Jiaxing a boost in the Chinese film market If we cause trouble, they will support us." Wang Zhongjun explained to his eldest brother.

As everyone knows, Wang Zhonglei narrowed his eyes when he heard his brother's tirade: "You can't say these words with your brain. Who taught you this? What benefit has it given you?"

Wang Zhongjun was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "My eldest brother still understands me. It was the people from Di Shini who taught me this, but it coincides with my ideas."

"If we use Hollywood's support to embarrass our colleagues in our own country, wouldn't we become traitors? If word gets out, our spines will be stabbed." Wang Zhonglei sighed.

Chinese films have been clamoring to go out. In the past, Xiangjiang films were somewhat budding, but now there is a trend in Jiaxing. If they are doing things behind their backs, they may face thousands of accusations if they are exposed.

"Ah, then..." Wang Zhonglei hesitated, "How about I return the benefits?"

"Oh, they are all brothers. You hinted at them to give more, but your sincerity is not enough. You have to add more." Wang Zhonglei said with certainty.

I've been fussing about it for a long time, but the idea is that I need to pay more.

……

Xu Jia is not surprised by Hollywood's reaction.

It's simple. If the other party can penetrate into the Chinese film industry, he can also penetrate into it.

I really thought Lorenzo was paid for nothing.

The latter immediately reported to Xu Jia the internal trends in Hollywood.

"Mr. Xu, you'd better be careful these days. The box office results of "The Wandering Earth" have reached Hollywood, and everything about Jiaxing has been amplified and studied by everyone. After all, even in Hollywood, nearly one billion U.S. dollars Movie box office numbers are also extremely rare," Lorenzo reminded.

If he hadn't been completely bribed by Xu Jia, his colleagues in Hollywood would have been alerted to be wary of this Chinese man.

Although there is still a certain gap between the other party and Hollywood, they are much closer than before. Think of China's development speed and the huge Chinese film market.

It is not impossible for Jiaxing to cannibalize the Hollywood market.

You must know that the reason why Hollywood can be so prosperous is that the five giants can make a lot of money.

It is supported by the global film market.

Among them is China, and the Chinese film market is now dominated by Jiaxing. If the latter further exerts its influence, it will definitely take a piece of the Hollywood cake.

This is unacceptable to Hollywood capital.

Even if they can't take advantage of the Chinese film market, they are being taken advantage of in turn, which is contrary to Tiangang.

"Is that so? I understand. There is relevant information to help me pay attention to. Based on my understanding of your Hollywood, these guys will take action if they have a hint of hostility."

Xu Jia nodded, then thought of something and said: "There won't be any problems with projects like "The Meg", "Barbie" and "The Out-of-control Player", right?"

These three projects are all aimed at the global market and belong to the realm of Hollywood. If he really wants to do something, these three projects are the most likely.

""The Meg" has Warner's investment, and it is basically considered to be in the Chinese film market, so it should not be targeted. "Barbie" has the banner of the metoo movement, so there is no need to worry. Not many people dare to offend "Out of Control Player" "... In my opinion, it will definitely be targeted. The combination of science fiction and Cheng Long makes it clear that it is Jiaxing's work to enter the world." Lorenzo analyzed.
