Xu Nuo walked in front and lowered his head to find a viewing position. The two of them walked to the last row and sat down.
Xu Nuo looked at the crowds of people who were still pouring into the theater and sighed: "With so many people, it seems that the venue is full again."
Tan Yue is not surprised. The Spring Festival release and the special nature of this movie will definitely attract a large number of viewers to watch the movie.
The entire movie theater became lively.
"I heard that this movie is also being released abroad. I took advantage of these two days of annual vacation to come over and watch it."
"That's why I came to watch it. I can often watch this movie on Douyin."
"This is a movie directed by Zhang Pakho. Don't worry about watching it. The quality is still guaranteed."
Xu Nuo whispered: "Old Tan, I have to say that the promotion of "Global Travel" was so successful."
Tan Yue nodded with a 'huh' sound. Who wouldn't want to see what the first domestic film to be released simultaneously around the world looks like?
After a while, the lights in the theater went out, and the noisy theater gradually became quiet, waiting for the movie to start.
In order not to be disturbed by other things, Tan Yue set his cell phone to silent mode.
"It's begun."
Someone in the movie theater whispered.
Xu Nuo lay on the seat and found a comfortable position to watch the drama.
"Global Travel" tells the interesting things that happen when a person travels around the world. As scenes of funny scenes appear, bursts of laughter can be heard in the theater from time to time.
Especially Promise, it's like being poked at the point of laughter, making you laugh all the time.
Xu Nuo regretted and said, "I would have known better to buy a bucket of popcorn."
Watching such a relaxing movie plot, a bucket of popcorn is the perfect match.
Another aspect of the movie that deserves praise is the scenery. Under Zhang Pakho's lens, some pictures can be used as wallpapers.
The two-hour movie ended in laughter.
Tan Yue and Xu Nuo came out of the cinema and returned to the car.
"I didn't expect it to be quite funny." As he said this, Xunuo laughed out loud thinking of the scenes in the movie.
Tan Yue complained: "I don't know whether others are happy or not. Anyway, I just sat next to you and listened to your giggles."
He didn't attract the attention of the people around him, but Xu Nuo's laughter attracted the attention of many viewers in the front row.
The car started and came out of the underground parking lot.
Xu Nuo calmed down and asked, "Old Tan, what do you think of this movie?"
Tan Yue said with a serious face: "Overall, it is very good. It is expected to become the box office champion during the Spring Festival."
It is very advantageous for a movie with a relaxed atmosphere to be released during the Spring Festival.
"But -" Tan Yue changed the topic: "Now we need to compare not only domestic films, but also foreign films."
Xu Nuo nodded and said nothing more. To him, this was just a movie released during the Spring Festival, and he could just watch it and be happy.
It was past eleven o'clock when Tan Yue got home. His parents had already fallen asleep. After washing themselves gently, they lay in bed and thought about the plot of "Around the World".
If you only look at the domestic film market, "Around the World" is indeed a very good movie, with good reputation and box office results.
"The global market...it's hard to say."
Pakho Chang has tried his best to move closer to globalization, but some interesting and interesting aspects of the plot may not be easy for foreign audiences to understand.
Tan Yue analyzed the plot carefully. It would be quite difficult for "Global Travel" to stand out in the global film market this time.
…
The next day, the second day of the Lunar New Year.
It's about nine o'clock in the morning.
For those who like to pay attention to movie box office, they stay in front of the computer early, waiting for the official website of the State Administration of Culture to update the box office data.
Many netizens suddenly discovered that there were some new changes on the official website of the General Administration of Culture today, and there was an additional [Global Movie Real-time Box Office].
With the simultaneous release of "Around the World" around the world, Chinese films have now officially entered the global film market. In order to allow domestic audiences to see real-time global box office data for the first time, the General Administration of Culture has reached an agreement with the cultural and entertainment departments of various countries. As long as the movie is released simultaneously around the world, data will be shared.
Seeing the [Real-time Global Movie Box Office] on the official website of the General Administration of Culture made many netizens very happy. They were originally thinking about how to check the global box office of "Global Travel", which would be much more convenient.
The time is getting closer and closer, and someone has started refreshing the web page.
At ten o'clock, the official website of the State Administration of Culture updated the box office data.
Domestic movie box office real-time rankings.
First place: "Around the World", with a box office of 356 million.
Second place: "Silver Bird", with a box office of 195 million.
Third place: "Planet of the Apes", with a box office of 110 million.
fourth place:......
Without any surprise, "Around the World" became the box office champion on the first day of the Spring Festival.
When many netizens eagerly opened the real-time box office of global movies, they did not see the name "Global Travel" in the top ten.
When I reached number 21, I finally saw the global box office of "Around the World", which was US$61 million. Domestic box office was also included. From this point of view, the foreign box office of "Around the World" was only US$7. Around a million dollars.
There are a total of thirty-seven movies in theaters around the world, and "Global Travel" is in the middle and lower reaches.
Major news media quickly reported on the incident.
"Modu Entertainment Daily": Congratulations to "Global Travel" for winning 356 million box office and becoming the box office champion on the first day of the Spring Festival."
"Southern Entertainment Weekly: The box office results of "Global Travel", the first domestic film to be released simultaneously around the world that countless netizens are paying attention to, are announced!!"
""Star Entertainment": "Around the World" has a domestic box office of 356 million US dollars and a global movie box office of 61 million US dollars (including domestic)."
"Entertainment Weekly: "Globe" ranks first at the domestic box office and 21st at the global box office."
""Movie Consulting": The annual Spring Festival is here again! The movie market is booming! "Around the World" temporarily ranks first in the domestic box office rankings!"
"Suzhou Entertainment News: "Global Travel" grossed US$61 million at the box office on its first day of simultaneous global release."
The report about "Global Travel" immediately aroused discussion among netizens on the Internet and became a hot topic on Weibo in a very short period of time.
"The global movie box office is 61 million U.S. dollars. Subtracting the domestic revenue, the foreign film market has only earned tens of millions of yuan? It has not exceeded 100 million yuan. How can it be so low?"
"Seeing the box office ranking of "Around the World" in the global box office rankings, I feel a little chilled."
"It seems that if domestic films want to achieve good results in the global film market, they will not be able to do so for the time being."
"I don't think there's any need to be so pessimistic. After all, this is the box office performance on the first day. Maybe we can make another hit in the future."
"The competitive pressure in the global film market is too great. The current situation of "Global Travel" is very worrying. I hope it can catch up in the future!"
"I went to the cinema yesterday and watched this movie. I thought it was pretty good. Come on!!"
…
...Magic City.
Zhang Baihao's home, in the study.
Zhang Pakhao sat behind his desk and looked at the updated data on the official website of the General Administration of Culture on the computer screen.
He first looked at the domestic box office results. The box office on the first day was 350 million, far away from the second place in the box office. This made him very excited, but what he was more looking forward to and nervous about was the global performance of "Around the World". Box office results in the market!
However, after seeing the global box office results, Pakho Chang's heart dropped.
There are a total of thirty-seven movies released simultaneously around the world in this issue, and "Around the World" ranks 21st among them. The global real-time movie box office is 61 million US dollars, which is 400 million when converted into Chinese dollars. About 30 million, which means that the box office of "Around the World" in dozens of countries outside China is less than 80 million!
Even though the film markets in many foreign countries are small, they are still very large when put together. Although the Chinese film market is the largest film market in the world, it is still far inferior to the entire overseas film market.
It can be said that "Around the World" is very impressive at the domestic box office, but its performance in overseas markets is greatly insufficient.
Come and try it quickly. 】
Pakho Chang thought a lot about the overseas box office of "Around the World" and even expected that the box office might be bad, but he did not expect that it would be this bad.
He held his head in his hands, feeling depressed.
He put too much effort into this movie and placed too many expectations, but when the results were too different from the expectations, even though he was already an old man in the film industry and had rich experience, At this moment, my heart is very broken!
Pakho Chang had analyzed with his friends before that the box office of "Around the World" may be lower when it is released. After all, both publicity and influence abroad are too weak, and all they can rely on is word-of-mouth. As the film's reputation slows down, With slow fermentation, you can slowly attract more viewers to watch it, and the box office will gradually increase in the future.
But the reality is that the box office is much lower than what he actually expected. This is no longer low, and it will be difficult to catch up later, and it will be difficult to meet his previous expectations.
"Is the globalization of domestic films... so difficult?" Pakho Chang sighed heavily.
.......
.......
There is another person who is also in melancholy like Zhang Pakho.
In the capital, Ye Wen's home.
"Mom, want to eat dumplings?" Chen Ye knocked on the door of the master bedroom and shouted.
On the big bed, Ye Wen was wearing pajamas and a coat, leaning on the bedside.
Because global movie box office data needs to be compiled from various countries, it is not as easy as summarizing domestic movie box office, so Ye Wen got the overseas box office of "Global Travel" not much earlier than netizens.
I had promised to eat dumplings this morning, but now I suddenly lost my appetite.
China's culture must gradually go global. It cannot always be invaded by other people's cultures. It must establish itself in the forest of world cultures. Film globalization is the first step in China's cultural globalization strategy, and it is also an extremely important step.
Many big leaders above are paying attention, which puts a lot of pressure on Ye Wen, so she also pays special attention to "Global Travel". From the filming of this movie to the completion and then to the domestic and overseas publicity, she has been involved. Pay attention and help a lot.
However, "Global Travel", which she had high hopes for, did not give her a satisfactory answer.
"If you don't want to eat, please go out. I have something to think about." Ye Wen said to Chen Ye.
Chen Ye said oh, no more persuasion, turned around and walked towards the living room. She knew her old mother too well. There was something on her mind and she had lost her appetite for food.
There is no need to persuade her, she figured it out on her own and she will come out naturally. If she persuades her too much, she will be criticized.
The master bedroom door was closed.
Ye Wen looked at the ceiling, her mind a little confused, and she sorted it out slowly.
The overseas box office of "Around the World" should increase in the later period, but the box office on the first day is so low, even if it increases again, it will not increase to much.
"I thought things were a little too simple before."
"I thought I had tried my best to overestimate the fierce competition in global movies, but I didn't expect that I still underestimated it."
"There is a high probability that "Around the World" will fail this time. No matter how good it is at the domestic box office, it will be of no use if it cannot make a profit at the overseas box office."
"I hope that Zhang Pakho and his "Global Travel" can remind the other four people to cheer up and not be careless."
"Global Travel"'s domestic success and overseas success are not bad news for Tianjing Entertainment. At least it can make a lot of money, but it is not bad news for Zhang Pakho, Ye Wen, the General Administration of Culture, the Chinese film industry and even the entire Chinese culture. The world is a blow.

...
Hollywood is located in the northwest suburbs of Los Angeles, California, on the west coast of the United States. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers and has pleasant scenery. It is not only the birthplace of global fashion, but also the center of the global music and film industry. It has the world's top entertainment industry and luxury brands, leading and representing the highest level of global fashion.
Fashion and technology here are mutually reining in each other's development, and the beautiful natural environment is also unpretentious. It has a profound fashion heritage and strong technology support, and has been imitated by all over the world.
Many years ago, who would have thought that the small village on the outskirts of Los Angeles would eventually become a huge movie city, and Hollywood would become synonymous with American movies.
The first thing Momo did when she came to Hollywood was to hire a taxi and drive around the entire Hollywood.
It is indeed a world-famous film center. Many places that we only saw in news reports are now appearing in front of us.
In order to get to know Hollywood better, Momo did not live in Los Angeles, but found a hotel in Hollywood to stay in. There was a movie theater next to the hotel.
In the evening, Momo went into the cinema and saw a Chinese movie being shown.
She bought a ticket and walked into the theater, but she seemed to be the only one in the theater. No other audience came in until the movie started.
"Am I booking the venue?"
Momo shook her head helplessly. She bet that this Chinese movie called "Global Travel" would definitely hit the market.
