Chapter 467 An even darker dark horse(2/2)

When we were in the cinema that day, Doug Liman said that the box office of the movie should be around 100 million US dollars. Jimmy did not refute. His opinion was similar to that of Doug Liman, and his expectation for the movie's box office was also around 100 million US dollars.

But based on current data and market research, the final box office in North America is likely to exceed 150 million.

The North American box office performance this year was mediocre. The highest box office was "Independence Day" with a total North American box office of 300 million US dollars, followed closely by Warner's "Tornado" with 240 million US dollars. The third place was 180 million US dollars.

's "The Professionals".

The fourth place is "Dalmatians", with more than 130 million.

In other words, if the box office of "Phone Booth" can exceed 150 million, it is very likely to rank fourth.

The reason why I say it is likely rather than certain is because there are currently two other movies that may exceed 150 million, namely "Mr.

"Scream".

Especially the former, the box office has now exceeded 100 million.



There is another interesting thing. Although "Sniper Phone Booth" did well at the box office and received good reviews, a lot of people criticized it.

The criticism was basically "selling sheep's meat to dog meat". The early promotion of the movie said that YU was participating, but many people didn't notice YU's presence at all after watching the movie.

Of course, there are also sharp-eyed people who caught YU in a flash of a shot.

YU plays a passerby in the movie, and there is only one long shot. If you don't look at it frame by frame, it's really hard to find.

However, this also aroused the interest of many people.

Some movie fans or book fans, just to find YU, even though they have already seen the movie, go to the cinema to watch it again, even two or three times.

Later, someone discovered that not only Yu Dong appeared in this movie, but also Yu Hua and Bi Feiyu.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yu Hua and Bi Feiyu have also gained some fame in the United States. "Alive" and "Panic Fingers" are very popular among readers.

Although their faces have not been exposed much, many people have seen them when they signed books before.

So when they were looking for Yu Dong, their existence was also discovered.



The news that "Phone Booth" won the box office championship in North America quickly spread in China.

The news headlines were all about "U.S. box office champion". Only after reading the news content did you realize that it had only won the box office champion for a week.

But such headlines are still within the tolerance range of most people.

After all, it is already a great thing to win the box office championship for a week.

Of course, for Yu Dong’s book friends, this seems to be nothing new. After all, since “Groundhog Day”, movies adapted from Yu Dong’s novels have won numerous weekly box office titles.

At that time, many people were also chasing the box office of "Second World" on "Reference News". For a period of time, "Second World" won the box office championship for many consecutive weeks.

But this time there is something different, that is, "Sniper Phone Booth" is not adapted from Yu Dong's novel, but a script written by Yu Dong himself.

When Yu Dong wrote the TV series "Don't Talk to Strangers" before, many people were surprised. This time, "Sniper Phone Booth" had a good box office, which made many people's jaws drop.

Writing novels, movies, TV series, is there anything Yu Dong can't write?

In this news, in addition to reporting on Dong and the others, there was also a special report on the performance of Qin Yi, a student of Jinyi, in "Sniper Phone Booth".

In fact, Qin Yi didn't show much, just a few scenes.

But after all, I took a trip to Hollywood and refreshed my face.

Of course, the reason why the news specifically reported on Qin Yi was also under the guidance of Deep Space Company, in order to stage a "horse bones for a thousand gold" drama.

When actors see this news, they will realize how powerful Deep Space’s resources are and will be more willing to sign contracts with Deep Space.

When students see this news, they will realize the benefits of going to Jinling Art Institute, and they will naturally prefer Jinyi when applying for schools.

"Sniper Phone Booth" also contributed to another thing. Zhao Baogang was initially hesitant about Deep Space's invitation to cooperate, but after seeing the success of "Sniper Phone Booth", he quickly reached a cooperation with Deep Space.

Zhao Baogang also fully understood that this would be his opportunity, and if he missed it, it would be difficult to get it again.

He relies on his connections in the film and television industry, but no matter how wide his connections are, they are not as good as Shen Kong.

He may still be useful to Deep Space now, but he is not irreplaceable. When Deep Space finds someone else, and when their business is fully established, he may not have a chance to cooperate with Deep Space again.



Yu Hua and Bi Feiyu did not expect that they would be exposed in the United States because of "Sniper Phone Booth". They ran to Yu Dong's office with newspapers and chatted about it.

"It's a pity that the movie is not released in China, otherwise I would have to see if we can be on camera."

Yu Dong looked at Yu Hua and joked: "How can you, the great writer Yu, not be photogenic? Haven't you noticed that your whole body exudes a special kind of light, which is different from ordinary people?"

Yu Hua twisted around: "Really?"

Yu Dongsha nodded politely and said: "Well, you have to be ready. Maybe you will become famous in Hollywood this time. In the future, the big directors in Hollywood will be vying to find you for filming. Do you want me to ask Teacher Cui to make up for your performance?

Class? I will be somewhat prepared when I go to Hollywood. If I perform well, I won’t be able to win an Oscar or anything else.”

Bi Feiyu then said, "He doesn't even need to improve his acting skills. He is a born actor. I think what he needs to improve is his English."

Yu Hua looked arrogant: "If I want to go to Hollywood to act, I shouldn't learn English, but the rest of them should learn Chinese and think about how to communicate with me."

Bi Feiyu and Yu Dong looked at each other and said with a smile: "Look, this guy can't boast, he will start shaking when he does."

"He's not crazy. After all, he understands how poor his learning ability is. I'm afraid it would be easier for others to learn Chinese than for him to learn English alone."
