Author: Glowing Wind
Wu Gong was lying on the sofa, looking at the chandelier in the room, thinking about the reports of "Forrest Gump" by the media from various countries, and smiled very happily.
In order to achieve good box office results on the premiere day, he worked day and night for more than a month, traveling all over the world for promotions to ensure that there would be no problems. He personally did the promotions in many countries.
During this time, I lost a lot of weight.
Although the process was very arduous, the final result was very satisfactory. In the fiercely competitive global film market, "Forrest Gump" earned a box office of US$183 million on the first day of its release, and occupied the
Number six on the list.
During the entire promotion process, Wu Gong conducted research on audiences in many countries. He felt that a large part of the reason why "Forrest Gump" had such a high box office on its opening day was because of "The Truman Show"
》.
A movie will not change the foreign audience's impression of Chinese movies. Now their first reaction is still that they are uninteresting and uninterested, but they know that "Forrest Gump" and "The Truman Show" are directed by the same director.
After meeting the protagonist, he showed great interest and wanted to come to the cinema to see it.
Not long after lying on the sofa, Wu Gong felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier.
He didn't sleep much all day yesterday, and had been paying attention to the latest situation on the Internet. At this time, he was still staying abroad, just thinking about solving unexpected situations as soon as possible.
After being tense all day, my heart finally relaxed, and a feeling of exhaustion instantly filled my body.
Wu Gong gradually fell asleep. He dreamed that the box office results of "Forrest Gump" were getting better and better, and its ranking on the real-time global movie box office list was getting higher and higher.

The domestic single-day box office of "Forrest Gump" was 493 million Chinese dollars, and the cumulative box office exceeded 1.7 billion Chinese dollars. Both the single-day box office and the cumulative box office have firmly occupied the first place in the domestic box office list.
No film can challenge its status. The second-placed film’s cumulative box office has just exceeded 100 million Chinese dollars.
As time goes by, the box office gap between "Forrest Gump" and other domestic movies will definitely widen.
On the real-time list of global movie box office, "Forrest Gump" has risen to third place, with a cumulative total box office of US$805 million. On July 9, it earned a total of US$233 million overseas.

the other side.
After Ye Wen saw the latest box office results, she was in a good mood, and the gloom in the morning was gone.
The most gratifying thing every day now is to look at the box office results of "Forrest Gump".
Ye Wen has also read foreign media reports on "Forrest Gump", and she is naturally aware of the impact of word-of-mouth on film and television works.
As the popularity of "Forrest Gump" gradually increases abroad, more audiences will be attracted to watch the movie, and the box office results will become better and better.
Even more than Tan Yue, she hopes that the film will be successful abroad.
"The Truman Show" did not have much impact on the overseas market of Chinese films, but it has been the most successful in the past 20 or 30 years. As long as "Forrest Gump" achieves good box office results, it will definitely give
Chinese films have brought great benefits.
Tan Yue also checked the latest box office situation immediately. Naturally, he was very happy and a little surprised at the same time.
He did not expect that the box office of "Forrest Gump" would grow so rapidly in just two days, and it had far exceeded expectations.
Seeing the rapid growth in the box office, Tan Yue also knew that the popularity of "Forrest Gump" overseas must be skyrocketing.
Even if a good movie starts at a disadvantage, it will slowly recover later on. The word-of-mouth effect of "Forrest Gump" is working.
Now Tan Yue is becoming more and more confident in his bold idea that day. Then he picked up his mobile phone and sent a message to Wu Gong, asking him to take advantage of the increasing popularity of the movie to use this shareholder trend to increase publicity and continue to expand "
The influence of Forrest Gump overseas.
The movie forum is even more lively, and you can tell from the words in the message area how excited they are now.
"It's great to see domestic films achieving such good box office results in overseas film markets. "Forrest Gump" is the second domestic film to shine!"
"Am I reading that right? Within three days of its release, the box office has exceeded US$800 million. How much money will this movie make after it has been released for at least a month? I can't even imagine it, it's a bit scary!"
"Support Teacher Tan Yue! Support "Forrest Gump"!"
"It is truly an honor for us in the Chinese film industry to have Teacher Tan Yue. Looking at such box office results, there really is no other director who can achieve this."
"If you want domestic films to go abroad, you still have to watch Teacher Tan Yue. Keep up the good work, Teacher Tan Yue, we will always support you!"
"I'm really proud to see a good movie like "Forrest Gump"."
Currently ranked second on the real-time list of global movie box office is a Hollywood blockbuster called "Operation Blast".
It is a science fiction war movie. It mainly tells the story of a future science fiction war. A special operations team received instructions from the superiors and secretly carried out a beheading operation.
The starring role in "Operation Blast" is a well-known American actor who has appeared in many war-themed movies. He has a large number of fans all over the world with his image of a "tough guy".
This movie is his first appearance in a science fiction war-themed movie, and many fans are looking forward to his performance this time.
After the movie was released, it caused a lot of discussion on the Internet and gained good momentum.
The producer of "Operation Blast" is the American Universal Entertainment Company, which is very good at shooting this type of movies.
United States, Universal Entertainment Corporation, President's Office.
Sitting in front of the computer is an artist wearing a black suit, with long blond hair combed into a style, a pair of platinum eyes on a straight nose, beards on his cheeks, and a slim figure. The whole person looks unusual.
Capable and exuding confidence from the inside out, this man is none other than Wagner Rubin, the president of Universal Entertainment.
Wagner just turned 30 this year and is already in his third year as president.
There is a saying on the Internet: If I had his status at this age, I would be crazier than him.
Wagner has strong business capabilities and was poached by Universal Entertainment executives at a very high price.
Wagner looked at the document in his hand and saw an error. He tore up the document in his hand and threw it into the trash can. He notified his secretary to ask the head of the department to make a new plan.
In his opinion, files with errors have no value in modifying them, and they waste his precious time.
"Dong dong dong" came the knock on the door.
"Come in." Wagner straightened his clothes.
A fat man with a big head and big ears came in when the door opened. This man was the director of "Operation Blast". He was called the fattest director in Hollywood by many and was famous for his sci-fi and war-themed movies. Sitting on the chair, he looked like
It's a mountain, and no matter how small the chair is, it seems like it can't accommodate his figure.
"What's the matter?" Wagner looked down at the document in his hand without raising his head.
The director also looked accustomed to this, and he was really a little afraid of this CEO who was more than ten years younger than him.
I don't know why, but whenever the director sees Wagner, he can always feel his very oppressive aura, which makes it difficult for him to breathe.
"I'll give you a report on the recent box office situation." The fat on the director's face squeezed his eyes into a line.
"you say."
"Now our company's movies rank second on the real-time global movie box office list, which is the same as what we originally predicted."
"Stop." Wagner put down the document in his hand, finally raised his head and said, "I know all these situations, let's talk about the key points."
What he usually hates the most is when everyone already knows something and they have to waste time reporting it again.
Wagner was extremely strict with himself. It can be said that he was so strict that he was a little bit abnormal. He only slept five hours a day, and the rest of the time was either at work or on the way to work.
The director was so nervous that his heartbeat accelerated instantly, and he did not even dare to look at Wagner.
"I would like to apply for global publicity. There is not a big gap between us and the number one box office. This may be an opportunity for us." The director finished this sentence very quickly, worried about himself
Then touch the brow of the person in front of you.
"It turns out that you only regard the first place as your opponent." Wagner frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "I think we have two competitors now."
