After being on the North American movie box office rankings for 10 consecutive weeks, "The Lotus Lantern" never fell from the top of this ranking again.

This is also normal. After all, "The Lotus Lantern" has gained enough attention worldwide before, from its unknown release to its unknown release, to its first popular Fusang film market, and then sweeping the entire award with its nameless gift at the Golden Dragon Awards, winning the world's doubts.

Then, such a movie came to all the audience. Do you think the audience would be interested in such a legendary movie?

Finally, and most importantly, "The Lotus Lantern" is indeed an extremely excellent movie. It is so excellent that any animated movie will feel ashamed of itself. It is so excellent that Chihiro and Chihiro postponed the release of two years, just to become as excellent as the Lotus Lantern.

In the end, Boss Jia spent hundreds of millions of dollars on this movie, so these are the things that "Bao Lian Lantern" should get.

It was not until 10 weeks passed, and it was almost May 2001 that "The Legend of the Lotus" was squeezed into the second place with the release of Monsters.

But this is no longer important, because "The Lotus Lantern" has had an amazing box office of up to 1.238 billion US dollars in North America at this time, becoming the third movie that broke the box office of $1 billion in North America after Titanic and the Lord of the Rings 3. The most important thing is that this is an animated movie, a movie that automatically elaborates on the mythical world of animation.

But this is just the box office market in North America. In Fusang, the box office of Baolian Lantern has reached an astonishing 40 billion yen. Moreover, with the popularity of Baolian Lantern in the United States, many Fusang people began to browse the second and third yen in order to make the box office of Baolian Lantern in Fusang more amazing. Then the box office of Baolian Lantern went towards an unprecedented 50 billion yen.

This is the equivalent of $400 million in box office.

In addition, in Europe, the Baolian Lantern also swept across Europe. The film markets in many countries were directly occupied by the Baolian Lantern, and even Africa was no exception. Many African uncles have become audiences of the Baolian Lantern.

However, the most funny thing is actually the Chinese market. After Baolian Lantern achieved an unprecedented box office of over $1 billion abroad, domestic audiences began to become interested in this movie.

Then domestic theaters began to re-released, and then every show was full. In the end, the Chinese market contributed 400 million yuan in box office, barely reaching half a million US dollars.

Although the box office is a bit awkward, Baolian Lantern still used this to become a god in China. After all, the Chinese are the ones who know the most about the Chinese myth, and they are also able to understand the connotation of the movie Baolian Lantern.

It was just because the previous prejudice was too deep and China really did not have the habit of watching animated movies, which led to this particularly funny result.

Moreover, the box office of 400 million yuan is definitely the best box office in China, only lower than the previous Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Titanic.

In the end, "The Lotus Lantern" earned $2.386 billion in box office worldwide. Although it is still a gap from "Titanic", it has surpassed "The Lord of the Rings 3" and became the second largest film in the world. This made all filmmakers exclaim that they can no longer understand the movie market.

However, with the rise of the Lotus Lantern and the Lord of the Rings 3, the global film market has realized that in the future the film market will gradually deviate from the theme of realism and move towards the direction of magicalism or magical realism.

Because only magical themes can bring the special effects of the movie to the extreme and create the movies that the audience wants to watch.

At the same time, the worldview of Eastern mythology was also considered by filmmakers on the same level as the worldview of Western mythology. At the same time, the worldview of Eastern mythology and related cultures were also understood by Westerners for the first time.

Many Westerners who watched the movies began to go to the library or the Internet, and asked clumsyly, "Why did Erlang Shen rebel against his uncle? Why was he not named Duke, but just a river?"

Just as audiences around the world were still immersed in the fantasy world brought by the Lotus Lantern, most gamers received an unprecedented news that Nintendo actually cooperated with Sony.

On April 1, during the historical release of PS1, Sony held another press conference in Fuso.

And at the beginning of this press conference, many reporters talked a lot.

First of all, the day of the press conference is also the day of the PS1 release. The unit that held the press conference is Sony Games, so there is no doubt that this should be a major release for Sony Games, and it is a major release of the same level as PSS1.

However, Sony's PS2 was just released last year. According to convention, the new generation of consoles will take at least about 5 years to be released, so this is absolutely impossible for PS3 to be released.

Is it a PS2 game released? Or is it an improved version of PS2 released?

This is unlikely. First of all, Sony Games never holds separate press conferences for a single game. Secondly, Sony's PS series rarely has so-called improved versions. At most, some collaborative versions have been changed. These versions Sony never holds press conferences of this level.

So the question is, what exactly does Sony Games want to do?

Fortunately, the question was answered soon.

As the press conference began, Ken Ryogi stood in the center of the press conference and showed all the audience the rectangular small box in his hand, everyone present finally understood that Sony was about to release its handheld!

This surprised all media because according to the convention of the game industry, the release of game consoles is generally not sudden, but gradual. Before the release, it will release the news through various methods to warm up the product, and finally hold a grand press conference to promote this product to all players.

It's like before the release of Apple phones, it's a truth that all users can basically see the appearance of Apple phones on the Internet in advance.
