ads_wz_txt;

"Sleepless in Seattle" grabbed food in the summer stall of strong players and grabbed the championship for two weeks. This has become the biggest news in this year's summer stall, and in terms of the degree of upset of this news, even " "Jurassic Park" pales in comparison.

Even more frightening is that "Night Sleep in Seattle" was in the "clash" with its direct competitor, "Sugar Coated Trap", except for losing to Sidney at a slight disadvantage in the first week. "Bo" Luck teamed up with Tom. In addition to this work created by Cruise's'exquisite' heart, the next three weeks will be firmly stepping on the opponent's body, which is really too strong.

The performance of "Sleepless in Seattle" is obviously not over yet. The 21% decline in the following week allowed the film to receive 9 million dollars on the three days of the weekend, only lagging behind the newly released "Sunrise Chase" this week. Fierce", accounted for the second place in the North American weekend box office rankings in the last week of July.

The follow-up performance finally returned to normal, "Line of Fire" ranked third, and "Sugar Coated Trap" performance also stabilized, overtaking "Jurassic Park" and continuing to rank fourth. It can be said that the most eye-catching item on the box office list this week is "Night Sleep in Seattle". Although the "Sunrise Chase" aspires to win the championship, the 15 million championship result is really not shot, or even comparable. "Seattle Sleepless" box office data for the third week of release.

This also makes "Sleepless in Seattle" still far ahead on the hot list of media topics.

In the first week of August, "Sleepless in Seattle" ushered in the second topic collision. "Death End", who once broke Hugo out of the cast list because of his late audition, officially attacked.

Strictly speaking, this collision does not have any meaning, because "Night Sleep in Seattle" has entered its seventh week of release, and there is no possibility of "sex" in any direct competition with "Death End" which premiered this week. However, the gossip psychology of the reporters is still unavoidable again.

Hugo has become a seed player on the list of big production male protagonists such as "Sugar Coated Trap" and "Death End". I originally thought that Hugo would use such commercial blockbusters to once again hit a breakthrough that could not be achieved by relying on "Deadly Moment" in the past. , But unexpectedly, Hugo not only failed to become the leading actor in these works, but also broke the scandal after the Golden Globes incident, and as a result, added a work like "Night Sleep in Seattle" which is not favored by everyone. , Makes people feel awkward.

However, almost everyone thought that Hugo's super high popularity accumulated by "smelling fragrance and knowing women" and "Yihai Xiongfeng" was about to become a bubble, but "Seattle Sleepless" fought a beautiful turnaround. , First let "Jurassic Park" get into a cold sweat, and then try to capture "sugar-coated trap", which became the second work of Hugo's actor career with a box office of over 100 million yuan. This really proves once again that "This is Hollywood". A famous saying, miracles are everywhere.

Therefore, people will naturally look forward to the results of "Death End", and they are also curious about the impact of "Death End", what kind of answer can "Seattle Sleepless" ‘hand in’.

As a result, "Death End" unsurprisingly won the North American weekend box office championship with 23 million US dollars, and "Sleepless in Seattle" once again "handed in" an ultra-low drop of 24%. Japan won 6.8 million U.S. dollars, trailing behind the "sunburst chase", and ranked third on the list.

It has to be said that the box office drop value of "Sleepless in Seattle" has repeatedly created surprises. Faced with the huge impact of "Death End", it has remained strong, allowing people to see how this work is on the box office. Huge potential, and now the cumulative box office has reached 142 million U.S. dollars in the seven weeks of its release, and the historical record of "Beautiful Lady in Wind and Moon" seems to be close at hand.

Regardless of the final box office data of "Sugar Coated Trap" and "Death End", the small-cost love movie "Night Sleep in Seattle" has "handed in" a perfect data answer sheet. Following "Yihai Xiongfeng", Hugo Relying on the outstanding performance of "Sleepless in Seattle", it has officially entered the front line.

It is particularly worth mentioning that Hugo’s remuneration for "Sleepless in Seattle" is a cash bonus. Now that the movie has achieved box office success, it also means that Hugo’s remuneration will most likely exceed 8 million U.S. dollars. It is the decisive'sexual' factor that Hugo puts on the label of "first-line actor".

"Sleepless in Seattle" is still in theaters, and it has been reported that Paramount Pictures is preparing to make a major production film and is willing to provide 8 million dollars in remuneration to invite Hugo to star in it. When "Yihai Xiongfeng" was released, it was just a "rumored front line", but now some production companies have put forward such invitations. For Hugo's actor career, the real breakthrough was suddenly completed.

However, Joseph obviously is not in a hurry to contact Hugo for a new job, because the performance of "Night Sleep in Seattle" is not over yet, and the $178 million romantic comedy record of "Pretty Girl" is still waiting. The transcendence of "Sleepless in Seattle".

"Sleepless in Seattle" did not disappoint the journalists who were looking forward to it. In the second week of August, there was a 15% drop, a 16% drop in the third week, and an 18% drop in the fourth week. Before the end of the month, the cumulative box office of the movie had reached 160 million U.S. dollars.

Although as time progresses, the rate of box office accumulation will definitely become slower and slower, but after September, the box office of "Seattle Sleepless" actually appeared counterattacks for two consecutive weeks, increasing by 35 respectively. Percentage points and 15% points. Then in the third week of September, another 10% drop was “handed in”. This also caused the movie’s cumulative box office to rise rapidly to 177 million US dollars. Records are at your fingertips

Sure enough, in the fourth week of September, the historical moment officially arrived. "Seattle Sleepless" won the box office of 3.3 million with a 30% drop, and the cumulative box office reached 181 million US dollars. Location, this also marks that "Night Sleep in Seattle" has officially surpassed "Beautiful Lady in Wind and Moon", occupying the No. 1 box office in the history of romance movies in North America.

No one could have expected such a result. Just like "Beautiful Lady in Wind and Moon" was popular at the beginning, "Night in Seattle" also burst out of shocking energy in an instant when everyone was not optimistic. Exceeding its own limits, refreshing the historical record of box office data, and finally surpassing the "Beautiful Lady in Wind and Moon", becoming the most "glamorous" film among the love genres at the box office.

"Sleepless in Seattle" was released for 14 weeks, breaking the historical record of "Pretty Girl in Wind and Moon", but its footsteps did not completely stop. After that, it was released for six weeks, and it was not officially officially until the second week of November. Offline, the entire release cycle lasted for 20 weeks, and the final cumulative box office number reached 189 million U.S. dollars

Although it is a pity that it has not been able to cross the 200 million US dollar threshold, the box office data of 189 million US dollars has surpassed "Yihai Xiongfeng" and has become the highest-grossing film among Hugo's personal works. I'm afraid it's a situation that even Hugo himself could not predict.

Relatively speaking, "Sleepless in Seattle" performed inferiorly in overseas markets. Although the common "sexuality" of love stories makes movies also have a strong appeal in overseas markets, Hugo still lacks as a male protagonist. Some appealing power, and a medium with American imprints like radio has also made the resonance of overseas markets much weaker. Most importantly, the two starring actors Hugo and Meg did not arrange any overseas promotion schedules, which undoubtedly greatly weakened the film's box office competitiveness in overseas markets.

In the end, the overseas market'handed in' a performance of 140 million U.S. dollars. This figure is much lower than the box office in North America, but it is still an achievement worth celebrating. This also makes the "Sleepless in Seattle" global box office. The result in one fell swoop came to the position of 329 million US dollars. This is not only Hugo's current global box office work, but also Hugo's first global box office work to exceed 300 million.

With an investment of only 20 million US dollars, "Sleepless in Seattle" finally created an incredible box office miracle, and it became a topic of topic in 1993 to illuminate the entire summer.

Relying on the strong North American box office performance of "Night Sleep in Seattle", Hugo got 10% dividends. Joseph only competed for the right to the North American box office dividends for Hugo, so Hugo could get a full 1,800. The dividend of 900,000 U.S. dollars, which also made Hugo's final official pre-tax salary data more than 20 million, becoming another top star after Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone and other top stars. The actor whose salary can exceed 15 million US dollars~www.wuxiahere.com~Joseph also took Hugo's strong performance into the ranks of the first-line agents overnight, in the "Night Sleep in Seattle" this time the salary negotiation process In, Joseph showed courage and wisdom, and competed for an unprecedented contract for Hugo, which became the most dazzling resume in Joseph's career. This also allowed Joseph to earn his first million in his career as an agent.

It is conceivable that Joseph will win the trust of more and more people in the position of agent, and Joseph's career will be official.

There is no doubt that the "gloom" of the past six months has completely disappeared, Hugo officially announced a full recovery, the "gloom" cloud brought about by the Golden Globes incident has been swept away, and people are concerned about "Seattle Sleepless". Instead of being optimistic, it became the driving force to promote Hugo’s strong rebound, and let Hugo soar into the sky.

Under such a situation, people's attitudes towards "Schindler's List" have also changed involuntarily. After all, this movie was originally blessed by Steven. Could it be that "Schindler's List" is such a serious and heavy one. Can movies of World War II create miracles? Many media have already begun gearing up to express their expectations.

However, compared to the media cheering for Hugo's strong recovery, many people feel heavy because of the success of "Sleepless in Seattle".
