Although "King Kong" received mixed reviews, its rating on Audiovisual.com also dropped to 6.9 points!

But the box office has been very stable, with a box office of 1.4 billion in the first week, which can be said to stop all doubting voices.

And Chen Shaojun also took advantage of the outbreak of "King Kong" to step into the ranks of great directors in one fell swoop.

This is something that many people do not think of.

There is actually no real standard for a great director, but there is a basic line, which is to have a first film with a box office of over one billion.

Obviously, "King Kong" has completed this task ahead of time, and the final box office of "King Kong" will be at least 2 billion. There is no problem at all.

Whether there is a higher box office depends on the subsequent box office trend.

The monster movie, which got a box office of 1.4 billion a week, can be said to have made many people dumbfounded.

And the key point is that the rise of Chen Shaojun has allowed Huaxin to add another general.

Chen Shaojun can be said to be proud of his scenery. After two years of hard work, it finally came to the harvest season.

The huge sales of "King Kong" also set off a wave of monster fever in the domestic film and television circle.

Earlier, it can be said that monster movies are definitely not the type of big investment, because monster movies first make people think of special effects, large-scale use of special effects, and special effects mean cost.

Therefore, monster movies have been in China for a long time, not to mention that no one cares about them, but they are definitely not a popular type of investment.

Because there is no precedent for this type of success in China, of course, Hollywood monster blockbusters are an exception.

But this time "King Kong" has become the best touchstone, proving that domestic monster movies also have a market.

"King Kong" was released in China in the second week. Although the box office dropped a bit, it still got 700 million box office, and the total box office exceeded 2 billion!

This figure is exaggerated!

And this is two weeks of data, that is to say, next, "King Kong" may even hope to challenge the box office of 3 billion.

Of course, this one is a bit difficult!

However, this is already shocking.

""King Kong" was released for two weeks, and the box office exceeded 2 billion! Monster movie spring may be coming soon!"

""King Kong" is the benchmark of China's domestic monster movies!"

""King Kong" will be released globally this week. Let us wait and see if overseas can make a difference!"

In this schedule, "King Kong" is undoubtedly the most dazzling existence.

As a matter of fact, unlike many people who do not believe that "King Kong" can achieve anything overseas, Wang Yifan is very optimistic about "King Kong"'s overseas box office.

Most people don't think that "King Kong" can have any bright performance overseas, especially in North America, mainly because there is a precedent for this.

The North American market, and the North American audience, are actually very exclusive.

"King Kong" is a Huaguo movie through and through, full of a lot of Huaguo elements.

And this kind of alien monster, in the eyes of many people, is undoubtedly difficult for North American audiences to like.

But Wang Yifan's idea was just the opposite.

"King Kong" is not a monster movie adapted from a big IP, but an original monster movie.

Therefore, its own foreign characteristics are not obvious. Fat Cat Literature Network

In fact, in Wang Yifan's opinion, monster movies are the best subjects to break through cultural barriers.

Why do you say that?

Because in other movies, everyone will focus a lot of attention on the hero and heroine, but in monster movies like "King Kong", the protagonist will always be a monster, not a hero or heroine.

Therefore, it is more able to dilute the impact of this aspect.

Monsters, where is there any national boundaries?

This is one of them!

"Then why did Matsumoto Universal's adaptation of the island monster movie encounter Waterloo in North America?" Chen Hanming asked a little puzzled.

Wang Yifan smiled and said: "In my opinion, Matsumoto Universal's initial choice is actually the biggest problem. Or it can be said that it is Matsumoto Universal who artificially created the rejected genes."

"When they were promoting, they played the monsters of the island country and assigned the nationality to the monsters. But for those audiences in North America, they actually don't pay attention to foreign things."

"As a matter of fact, not many people in North America know about the IP of the island country. After all, it is not a hot IP in the world. So, to be honest, I don't quite understand why the first-hand Wang Bo was labeled as a bad card. .” Wang Yifan was also puzzled.

"What about "King Kong"?" Chen Shaojun asked.

""King Kong" is different. King Kong has no borders, it is just a monster! It can be American, and if the movie is released in the United States, it can also be of island nationality..." Wang Yifan Laughed.

"And, there is another point, "King Kong" is different from all the monster movies in the past. You can even say that this is not a monster movie, but a romantic love movie."

"Maybe the concept of love in our Chinese society is different from that in the United States, but the love between monsters and beauties is the same in the world! So, this also perfectly avoids the problem of cultural barriers."

"Again, there is another big difference between King Kong and other monsters. King Kong is actually a relatively large gorilla. If it is replaced by a snake, then the situation is different. Obviously, the gorilla is more human-like and easier. Let people accept the setting where gorillas fall in love with humans."

North America, Los Angeles!

Nick is a monster movie lover, or rather, the movies he likes are heavy.

He especially likes the picture of monsters killing humans, yes, although it is a bit perverted, but he just likes it.

Just like some people are hopelessly fond of gory horror movies.

"King Kong" was released in North America, and the distributor was Matsumoto Universal.

In fact, Matsumoto Universal did not pay too much attention to "King Kong".

There is no way, even if Huaguo's movies are sold well in Huaguo, and they go abroad, it can basically be said that except for a few movies, most of them will eventually fall into the sand.

Another point is that Matsumoto Universal has also released a super-cast monster movie "Monster Tanny" before, which is an island monster.

It is very famous in the island country. Matsumoto Universal spent a lot of money on publicity for this movie in the early stage of building momentum.

However, "Monster Tanny" finally won a good box office in the island country, but it only had a box office of less than 50 million in North America.

And you must know that the production cost of "Monster Tenney" plus the cost of publicity and distribution exceeds 200 million U.S. dollars!

The huge loss of "Monster Tenney" also let Matsumoto Universal know that in North America, you'd better not shoot things related to foreign countries.

And "King Kong" is from Huaguo!

It is also an outsider to North America, so although Matsumoto Universal took over the distribution rights of "King Kong" in North America, it didn't pay much attention to it.

The budget for publicity and distribution was paid in advance by Huaxin itself.

No way, if you don't do this, there is no way for "King Kong" to get a considerable film schedule in North America.
