381 Word of Mouth Explosive Comeback

While Wei Xun, Kang Cheng and others were busy with the promotion of "Saw", a large number of press releases of Wei Xun's box office failures began to appear on major Internet in China.

"Badwin's "Ghost Ball" had a box office of 9 million US dollars on the first day, and Wei Xun's "Saw" suffered a crushing defeat, with a box office of less than 200,000 US dollars on the first day."

"Wei Xun suffered a tragic defeat. Not only did "Saw" fail, but he also had to pay tens of millions of dollars in bets."

"Badwin's Facebook calls out to Wei Xun, hoping to pay back the money as soon as possible in a month, saying that Chinese filmmakers cannot succeed in Hollywood."

As soon as these press releases came out, it immediately caused an uproar on the Internet.

In fact, no one dared to expect Wei Xun to win at the beginning, but as a top Chinese director and Wei Xun, known as the king of commercial film directors, lost so tragically in the United States, still made many netizens find it difficult to accept.

"I went to see the box office statistics in the United States. This marketing account did not lie. The box office of "Saw" was worth 200,000 US dollars, only had a poor 200 shows."

"If you can't open the theater channel, it's like you can't even get the ticket. No matter how good the movie is, you can't get good results. No wonder Baldwin is so arrogant."

"I feel a little uncomfortable. When will our movies make achievements in Hollywood? Even Wei Xun can't do it, who else can?"

"There are too few scenes in "Saw" and it's an interactive opening, so although I'm in the United States, I haven't seen this movie. But I can tell you responsibly that some people have a good review of "Saw" for related forums such as Rotten Tomatoes. Although they lost the box office, they still have a small reputation."

Although Chinese netizens were not feeling well, they were helpless about the failure of "Saw".

And to be frustrated, over the years, everyone has become accustomed to the failure of Chinese filmmakers in Hollywood.

Although some people on the Internet say that "Saw" has a good reputation in a small range in the United States, a "small range" is enough to illustrate the problem.

Because the movies from China were directly rejected by the American theaters, not to mention that they wanted to go to the global release channel of Golden Lion movies like "Ghost Baby".

This is the gap.

Industrial technology, and the gap in global channels.

So, Baldwin's speech on Facebook was very arrogant.

Baldwin: It is really worth buying a lesson for 10 million US dollars. I hope you can recognize your abilities and leave Hollywood in shame, because you can't succeed in Hollywood.

This state was besieged by many Chinese netizens without any surprises.

But Baldwin didn't care.

Because you can get 10 million US dollars soon, and R-rated movies like "Ghost Baby" cannot be released in China, so you don't have to care about the ideas of Chinese people for the sake of box office.

As for when his next movie is released, the forgetful Chinese will forget what is happening now, pretending that nothing has happened, and continue to walk into the cinema.

Look, how could such a country make high-quality movies?

Wei Xun's bet on him with a movie starring a Chinese is simply a joke.

Wei Xun, known as a joke, is contacting some famous film critics in the United States and editors of major film newspapers.

Today is the second day of "Ghost Baby" release, and R-level movie lovers are all paying attention to this horror movie.

However, some newspapers and excellent film critics, from this day on, boasted wildly about a movie called "Saw".
