Chapter 1802 The movie was sprayed

From May to August 2000, "The Lord of the Rings 3 Return of the King" finally created a miracle of a global box office of US$2.021 billion, twice the total box office of another world.

What makes many people sigh is that "The Lord of the Rings 3: Return of the King" still does not break the global box office record set by Titanic back then. This record may be difficult for a movie to break within 10 years.

By the end of August, "The Lord of the Rings 3: Return of the King" quietly ended, and another carefully prepared movie, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turban Rebellion", was seamlessly connected and began to be released worldwide.

For this movie, Daqian was originally planned to be released worldwide, but due to the review issues in the United States, it was finally premiered by China and Fusang, and the United States postponed the release of the movie for five days.

This movie is also a work that embodies the countless efforts and energy of Daqian movies. I won’t talk about the shooting. The total investment of the six movies is as high as US$1.2 billion, which is an unprecedented huge investment in global movies.

Secondly, in terms of publicity, since the filming began, the promotion of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Yellow Turban Rebellion" has already begun around the world. A month before its release, various publicity reached its peak and ultimate.

First of all, the promotional funds of more than one billion US dollars were spent on the global market without any money, so that American media and magazines, as well as various film critics, praised the movie and commented that it was the best Chinese film in history.

Then there were various previews of the movie, which invited filmmakers and audiences from major film markets around the world to try it out in advance. The result was also very popular. It is said that the average score of the preview was as high as 9.6 points, which is the same score as the Titanic, so there is no doubt that audiences around the world were all full of expectations by this movie.

Then on September 1, the movie was released simultaneously in two countries: Huaxia and Fusang.

As soon as the movie was released, it created history directly in two countries. Among them, China created a history of over 100 million yuan on the first day. This achievement in history must be delayed until 2014 before it can be broken by "Journey to the West: The Great Trouble in the Heavenly Palace".

As a result, this world was achieved directly in 2000.

First of all, it is naturally because "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is so famous in China, and it is the return of the entire TV version, and it is a huge special effects and real war scene with a global investment of US$1.2 billion. It also has the huge influence of Daqian Entertainment in the entertainment industry, allowing almost all celebrities to help promote the movie.

However, the most important thing is that in this world, China's GDP in 2000 had reached the GDP figure of another world around 2006, and the national film industry has also recovered early. Four or five large enterprises have invested in theaters, which has begun to rebound in the number of movie screens.

These advantages combined have created the first movie in Chinese history with a box office of over 100 million yuan.

On the other hand, the first day of Fusang also exceeded 100 million, and it exceeded 1 billion US dollars in box office. After all, the Three Kingdoms actually had a popularity that was not inferior to their Warring States Period, and Daqian also had a huge influence in Fusang, as well as the Japanese version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms TV series that year, etc. These factors together led to the surprise discovering that the first movie in their history that exceeded 1 billion on the first day was actually created by a foreign film.

But the next development is beyond everyone's expectations.

In China, since it exceeded 100 million on the first day, no box office can exceed 100 million in one day, and then it began to fall very quickly. In the end, on the fifth day, the single-day box office was only 30 million yuan, and the total box office was less than 300 million yuan. According to the experience of industry insiders, the final box office result may be about 500 million yuan.

Of course, this has created the history of Chinese movies. The box office of 500 million yuan is enough to become the champion of Chinese local movies. The championship is the total box office of 800 million yuan belonging to Titanic.

This achievement is definitely not embarrassing, and it can be explained in the past, but what worries many people is that the domestic evaluation is negative.

The Worst Movie of All Time

"Adaptation is not a random adaptation, I don't admit it is the Romance of the Three Kingdoms"

"The Invasion of Western Culture, The Romance of the Three Kingdoms with Yellow-skinned and White Bone"

News media such as this are endless, and according to Daqian's own investigation, many Chinese people are also very dissatisfied with this movie. The reason is very simple. Just as the titles of these three news reports say, the difference between this movie and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is too big.

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, for example, the Taoyuan Mercy, which is very familiar to everyone, "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turban Rebellion" does not start with the Taoyuan Mercy, but creates a plot of Liu Bei Zhi's retreat from the Yellow Turban, and then the Taoyuan Mercy, which makes many viewers feel very uncomfortable when watching it.

In addition, there are many adaptations that were not originally made by the original work, and the one that most aroused the audience's disgust was the final Battle of Guangzong.

As the final decisive battle of Guangzong, the shooting was really too unexpected.

Not only did Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Sun Jian become good friends in the Battle of Guangzong, but they also determined to support the Han Dynasty together, and had a lot of interactions. Zhang Jiao, who had obviously died of illness, was still alive in the final battle.

And he really knows some magic tricks, and can actually sprinkle beans into soldiers, spray water into fire, drive corpses, and even create things like thunder. It is a completely magical battle.

And the final appearance of Lu Bu, who is a human-god combat power, made the audience feel that they have never watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and then they are naturally very dissatisfied with the movie, thinking that the movie ruined the original work.

Also, the movie describes the Yellow Turban Army very cruelly, such as killing people, destroying their families and killing people, and so on. It doesn’t seem like a matter of human beings. Is this still an uprising army?

This kind of emotion is very normal. After all, all movies adapted from classic works in later generations will be subject to similar criticism.

However, Boss Jia felt very wronged, because in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, there was only one chapter of the Yellow Turban Uprising. It was obviously not enough to make a movie through one chapter, and it needed to make up for the plot.

Secondly, if you watch the original movie, you will find that the original movie has not been deleted. The contents of the original work have basically been restored in the movie.

For example, the Taoyuan Fighting at the beginning of the movie, followed by a battle between Cheng Yuanzhi and Deng Mao, and then went to Lu Zhi to save Dong Zhuo's life, and the final battle to burn Guangzong, killing Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao. These are all plots in the original work, and all of them are presented without missing a single one.
Chapter completed!
