After the movie, Cao An came to the platform and answered a few simple questions.
Question: “Why did Director Cao want to make such a unique doomsday movie?”
Cao An: “One day I was walking on a busy street and suddenly thought, what would happen if a city suddenly had no people, so there was the original script of “I Am Legend”.”
Question: “How does Director Cao feel about cooperating with Hollywood this time?”
Cao An: “The cooperation with Warner is good, but we must divide the work in advance and don’t command each other.”
Huh~!
Cao An’s answer immediately caused a sigh of relief at the scene. Director Zhang Yimou, who had not left yet, showed embarrassment and immediately quickened his pace to leave the theater.
Question: “What is Director Cao’s box office expectation for this movie?”
Cao An: “Although this is a movie I made, the background and actors in the movie are all Western, so I will be very satisfied if I can get a box office of 1 billion in China. As for the global box office, I think there is still hope for 1 billion US dollars.”
This sentence immediately caused a heated discussion among the audience.
After all, there is no domestic movie that can reach 1 billion US dollars at the box office, and the overseas box office of domestic movies is too small.
If “I Am Legend” really achieves this result, Cao An will become an internationally renowned director.
Looking at the world, there are only a handful of directors who can direct a movie with a global box office of 1 billion US dollars.
After the premiere of “I Am Legend”, those reporters rushed out the news overnight.
Weibo Movie: {A brand new doomsday movie, the first blockbuster of the year “I Am Legend” is coming! }
Penguin News: {One person and one dog, watch the empty doomsday New York! }
Movie Report: {“I Am Legend”, Cao An once again brought a visual feast to the audience. }
Entertainment Frontline: {Another co-production movie, this time Cao An gave a perfect answer. }
Starlight Huiying: {“I Am Legend” continues the legend of director Cao An! }
……
Reports about “I Am Legend” soon appeared on major platforms, and most of them were positive reviews.
Even if there were negative reviews, they were insignificant and instantly ignited the audience’s enthusiasm for watching movies.
When the New Year’s bell rang on January 1, countless audiences waved their movie tickets and walked into the midnight show of “I Am Legend”.
“I Am Legend” did not disappoint this part of the audience. When they walked out of the cinema, they had a heated discussion with their friends about the content inside.
Then they sent their viewing experience to the Internet.
“It’s so good. The deserted streets and the ruined and collapsed city make me feel like I’m there.”
“I Am Legend is a good science fiction movie. It renders the lonely atmosphere very moving.”
“The plot is compact and the rhythm is well-controlled, which keeps people nervous all the time. The background setting is even more eye-catching.”
“Director Cao An, is there anything you are not good at? How can you make science fiction movies so good?”
“After watching I Am Legend, I am more and more looking forward to the Wandering Earth that Director Cao is currently filming.”
“Haha, The Wandering Earth is a sure thing. Just for the quality of I Am Legend, I will watch the midnight show.”
…
The reputation of I Am Legend has exploded.
The domestic box office on the first day directly topped the list, reaching 147 million, which is twice the lead of the second place.
In the following days, I Am Legend has firmly sat on the top of the single-day box office list.
The box office for the three days of New Year’s Day reached 514 million, and it is no problem to reach the 1 billion box office mentioned by Cao An.
Not only was it a hit in China, but good news also came from Warner.
The first weekend box office of “I Am Legend” in North America reached 93.47 million US dollars.
Ann Slofi of Warner called Cao An directly to announce the good news.
They expect the North American box office to reach 500 million US dollars.

Due to the strong box office performance in China and North America, Warner immediately accelerated the release process in other regions.
Because from the current situation, “I Am Legend” must be a big profit.
If you don’t make money, you are a fool. The earlier it is released, the higher the box office will be.
So in January, a wave of “I Am Legend” swept all over the world.
Hathaway also became a global movie star with this movie.
She was so excited that she called Cao An directly and kept saying thank you.
She also asked Cao An to come to her house next time he came to America.
At the end of January.
The domestic box office of “I Am Legend” has reached 1.297 billion, and the final box office should be more than 1.3 billion.
The North American box office also successfully exceeded 500 million US dollars, becoming the temporary box office champion this year.
Other placesThe total box office of “I Am Legend” has reached 1.066 billion worldwide.
Cao An officially entered the billion-dollar box office club.
When the news came back to China, it immediately caused a huge sensation. After all, this was the first time for a domestic director.
This time Cao An really became the first in China.
The daily box office of “I Am Legend” also grew against the trend for several days.
The final domestic box office was fixed at 1.341 billion.
Although the domestic box office results are not as good as “Your Name” and “The Invisible Guardian”, its global influence is indeed top-notch.
Audiences in many places know a director named Cao An from the East.
The success of “I Am Legend” immediately attracted the attention of major Hollywood companies, and they all expressed their willingness to cooperate with Fanxing.
But Fanxing refused for the time being.
Warner’s An. Si Luofei even called Cao An directly and invited him to come to America to attend the celebration banquet of “I Am Legend”.
An Si Luofei had to maintain a good relationship with Cao An because this movie successfully established her foothold in Warner.
So she did not mention the subsequent cooperation on the phone. As long as Cao An came to America, she would have plenty of opportunities.
In China, the audience had just come back to their senses from “I Am Legend”.
“Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom” was broadcast on Xiangchu Satellite TV on February 1.
It once again brought the audience a shock of the stars.
As soon as it was broadcast, it immediately received good reviews from the audience, and the ratings continued to rise.
This time, Kuju also felt the feeling of being popular, and the whole company immediately became busy.
They had long been envious of Tang Ren’s popularity, and this time it was finally their turn.
The yearning for the stars in their hearts increased a little more.
Yang Mi and Di Liba also returned to the audience’s sight again because of the popularity of “Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom”.
It was a busy Spring Festival.
And Cao An did not lie down until the eighth day of the Spring Festival this year as he wished.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, he boarded a plane to America.
The celebration party for “I Am Legend” will be held on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year in China.
As soon as Cao An got off the plane and came to the pick-up point, he saw Hathaway wearing a mask and a baseball cap holding a sign with her name on it.
“Cao, you’re finally here.”
Hathaway saw Cao An and immediately stepped forward to give him a warm hug.
“I’m sorry to bother you next.”
Cao An patted her on the back and said.
