Cao An’s trip to Japan was very relaxing.
Except for the first few days when he was a little uncomfortable, he felt much more relaxed afterwards.
After running a few promotional events, “Your Name” was officially released in Japan.
The box office on the first day was not much, less than 100 million yen.
After all, it was a foreign movie, and even with the support of director Tiga and Toho’s strong promotion, the box office on the first day was only 41.47 million yen.
But the turning point happened on the second day.
Those who watched the movie on the first day were instantly moved by the love, beautiful scenery, and story in the movie.
They all turned into tap water and frantically recommended it to people around them.
In addition, it was Saturday, so many people went to the theater to watch “Your Name”.
The influx of a large number of audiences directly squeezed some theaters, and the attendance rate directly increased to 91%.
Such a high attendance rate allowed the theater to immediately increase the number of films.
The box office on the second day directly exceeded 100 million, reaching 124.7 million yen.
The box office on the third day was 347.6 million yen, and the box office in the first week (three days) reached 513.8 million yen.
Equivalent to 24.52 million yuan.
This result is not very good in China, but it is very good in Japan.
You should know that Japan’s population is only 125 million, and this is a foreign movie.
When this news came back to China, it immediately attracted major entertainment media to report.
[Yangshi News]: {The movie “Your Name” directed by our country Cao An successfully landed in Japan today, with a box office of 500 million yen in the first weekend, becoming the most successful movie to open in Japan. }
[Movie Express]: {With a box office of 500 million in the first weekend and a rapid increase, “Your Name” hopes to become the Japanese box office champion of the quarter. }
[Penguin News]: {Director Cao An’s movie went overseas successfully, winning the first week box office champion in three days of release. }
These news immediately excited Cao An’s fans and viewers who like “Your Name”.
And those who were not optimistic about Cao An were directly slapped in the face by the facts, and could only shrink their heads and dare not speak.
Only a few stubborn people complained, “How can ordinary people have such poor aesthetics that they can watch such movies.”
…
Cao An’s journey in Japan is not over.
Three days after its release, the box office of “Your Name” not only did not show a decline, but also became stronger and stronger.
In the second week, the box office directly won 1.3 billion yen, and the total box office was close to 2 billion.
It can be said that it is far ahead of other movies in the same period.
Since “Your Name” is a foreign movie, some people with ill intentions directly promoted it online and asked everyone to boycott it. This is sending ammunition to the enemy country.
But this kind of speech was directly suppressed by Toho’s people. They don’t allow anyone to delay their making money.
After finishing an interview on a TV program, Toho’s head Yamashita Shuichi took Cao An to eat authentic Japanese food, and then went to a hot spring together.
Due to the strong box office of “Your Name” in Japan, Toho attaches great importance to Cao An.
Arrange a senior executive to follow Cao An around the clock to respond to various emergencies at any time, and take him to eat, drink and have fun in Japan.
“Comfortable~”
Lying in the warm spring water, Cao An felt that the fatigue accumulated in these days had left him.
At this time, several women in light kimonos came to Cao An’s back with small steps and began to massage Cao An’s shoulders.
Not to mention, they are really good at serving people in their daily lives.
But while massaging, Cao An found that the woman’s hands were a little dishonest.
Cao An opened his eyes and looked at Yamashita Shuichi who was playing with two women at this time.
The latter saw that Cao An was a little unhappy, and hurriedly explained: “Don’t worry, Anjun, these people are carefully selected by me, and they are absolutely clean.”
“Come out to relax and have fun.”
Yamashita Shuichi said to Cao An with a smile while enjoying the massage.
This kind of thing seems to him to be an extremely common thing.
But Cao An shook his head. He couldn’t even feed his own family, so how could he have the heart to eat takeout.
And these women are not interesting, and they look average.
Seeing Cao An shaking his head, Yamashita Shuichi asked hurriedly: “But An Jun is not satisfied with these people, I asked someone to change a group?”
“I just want to have a good rest.”
Seeing Cao An unwilling, Yamashita Shuichi did not continue to persuade him, and only asked the waiters to give Cao An a good massage.
After staying in Japan for a few more days, Cao An was ready to return home after finishing all the publicity.
At the moment Cao An stepped on the plane, the box office of “Your Name” in Japan had reached 5.4 billion.
It can be said to be fierce.
When Cao An’s “Invisible Guardian” was finished, “Your Name” was officially released in Japan.
A total of 10.7 billion yen in box office, equivalent to more than 500 million.
Although not as good as in China, this is also a domestic movie inThe best box office in Japan.
You should know that Japan is a relatively exclusive market. Except for their American daddy’s movies, movies from other countries are almost not well received.
And Cao An’s “Your Name” can achieve this result despite so many debuffs, because the story is too touching the aesthetics of daily life.
When this news came back to China, there was another round of exclamations.
Teacher Zhao called Cao An to congratulate him and said that he was praised by the higher-ups.
He said that the National Youth Directors Competition was well organized and successfully cultivated an excellent director. He hoped that the National Directors Competition would continue to work hard and catalyze more internationally renowned movies and directors.
Netizens had just digested the shock of “Your Name” killing in Japan, and Cao An announced the news of the completion of “The Invisible Guardian”.
It immediately made people look forward to it.
An article “Cao An’s new work aims at the National Day file” completely ignited the competition for the National Day file.
This article combined the news released by Cao An and the results of his previous works, and came to a conclusion that Cao An is the most competitive director in the National Day file.
Zhang Yimou was directly ranked second.
This is not without reason.
Although Zhang Yimou has excellent historical performance and has won countless awards.
But his movies in recent years are not very impressive, and there is no movie that has exceeded 1 billion at the box office.
This article has received support from many netizens.
In a vote on who will be the box office champion of the National Day this year, 47% of netizens voted for Cao An, while only 45% voted for Zhang Yimou.
Although it only exceeded 2%, this was something that was unthinkable in the past.
A young director who only started filming last year is actually more worth looking forward to in the minds of the audience than the big directors who have been fighting in the film and television industry for many years.
Zhang Yimou saw the public opinion on the Internet and felt a huge pressure.
He had to pay attention to this little guy who he originally looked down on.
Fortunately, “The Great Wall” was successfully completed, and Zhang Yimou said that he would go to the United States for post-production next.
This gave the audience great confidence again.
National director + big star + Hollywood production, this is the rhythm of an international hit.
Zhang Yimou also successfully surpassed Cao An in the audience vote.
With 57% of the votes, he became the director most likely to win the box office championship during the National Day holiday in the eyes of the audience.
