In this era, information is smooth enough. Except for a few areas such as ****, which are almost separated from the existence of the Earth, the news that a Hollywood film has exploded in North America will soon spread around the world.

With the development of the global film market to the present, only Hollywood movies can be circulated worldwide. Even those who dislike Hollywood movies the least cannot deny this. Especially North American movies, except for a few individual genres, are often very popular in most overseas markets.

"Deadpool" is no exception.

Three days after its first weekend of release in the UK, Deadpool made a brilliant record of $15.2 million, also setting the best record for the R-rated films in the British film market in April.

Also on this weekend, Deadpool has also landed in many overseas countries and regions, especially places that are deeply influenced by Western culture.

In Germany, the film scored $8.65 million in the first week; the sunny Spain earned $3.9 million in three days; the harvest of $9.1 million from France; Australia 10.15 million; Brazil 5.37 million; Mexico 6.1 million; South Korea 7.5 million...

Looking at the global film market, this is a weekend of "Deadpool". Even if the box office numbers in North America are not counted, the film has also earned $112.5 million in 37 countries and regions around the world!

This is also the overseas box office that Murphy has gained the most in a single film since entering Hollywood.

At the same time, Murphy also left Britain and came to Paris, the capital of art, to continue his publicity journey in Europe.

The problem of Fleet Street reporters is very simple, but there are many similarities between British and American cultures, and the film industry is no exception. Therefore, although the reporter interviewing Murphy at that time was very sharp, he did not question or deliberately made things difficult for the film.

But France is different. This is the birthplace of movies. Many film workers have a special sense of superiority. It’s okay for people like Luc Besson to have clear minds. Those film workers immersed in their literary and artistic world often disdain for Hollywood commercial movies. Whenever Hollywood blockbusters are released, they always have nostrils.

This trend naturally spread to French film and television critics and related media practitioners, who never look at Hollywood commercial films with a straight look.

However, Murphy didn't care about the views of these people. There is a saying on the other side of the Pacific that is right, and the different ideas do not work together. Since the most basic film concepts are inconsistent, there is no need to contact them.

Apart from two routine publicity activities, he did not continue to stay in France at all, nor did he have the interest to communicate with his French colleagues.

Indeed, French films have almost become the standard bearer of mainland European films, but so what? Hollywood films are developing towards a wider audience, while mainland European films are just the opposite, and the shooting and production styles are becoming increasingly niche.

Looking around the world, it is an indisputable fact that European films are declining.

When it comes to a mature and complete film industry, the first reaction of a normal person is Hollywood. It is not difficult to see from the overseas box office of "Deadpool" that only Hollywood has the ability to produce such a large-scale film industry, with technical support for action films and stunt films and the ability to global distribution.

“Why can Hollywood occupy so much overseas market share?”

On the plane, Jessica Alba, who was sitting opposite Murphy, asked curiously, "Murphy, what do you think is the key factor?"

Murphy's eyes were collected from outside the window. Because "Deadpool" was so big that it was so popular that 20th Century Fox also became a prosperous one and rented a business jet for the crew for a promotional journey in Europe.

Seeing that Murphy didn't say anything, Jessica Alba asked again, "Is it the advantage of industrialization?"

"This is one aspect." Murphy picked up the water cup in front of him, took a sip slowly, and then said, "I think it is Hollywood's ability to publish globally, and this is the purpose and the most core driving force."

"Uh..." Jessica Alba's eyes showed enough curiosity, "Can you tell me?"

It took some time to fly from Paris to Rome. Murphy thought for a while and nodded.

"This is my personal opinion, highlighting the factor of global distribution, which determines that Hollywood and not other countries can form such a complete industrialized system."

His words also represent the mainstream view today, "and it is this factor that has allowed the Hollywood film industry to occupy the global market for so many years since World War II. Although there have been twists and turns in the middle, the overall situation has never changed."

Murphy reminded me, "Think about the six major Hollywood companies now. In the film industry in any country in the world, can you find distribution companies of the largest scale like the six majors?"

"Uh..." Jessica Alba thought seriously for a while, then shook her head, "No."

She grabbed her long brown hair, "This kind of ability seems to be not difficult for the current six majors, right?"

"It seems simple," Murphy shook his head, "it's hard to do."

"It's quite difficult." Robert Downey Jr.'s voice suddenly rang, and he walked over from behind with a cup, "Or it wouldn't be the only Hollywood in the world."

He sat next to Murphy, took over Jessica Alba's question and said, "Because you want to maintain true global distribution capabilities, you need to have the same understanding of various markets around the world and be able to balance the understanding bias caused by cultural differences in the same movie."

Murphy nodded, fully acknowledging Robert Downey Jr.'s words, "That's right."

Jessica Alba was more like a beautiful listener, blinking her curious eyes and continuing to look at Murphy.

Seeing her expression, Robert Downey Jr. said again, "But like "Deadpool", global audiences get the same laugh point, global audiences agree with the same concept, and global audiences like the same character. This kind of thing that requires talent or master artists can be done by chance has become a standardized production and operation mechanism in Hollywood, so it is not surprising that Hollywood can have its current scale."

"You know so much, Donny." Murphy patted Robert Downey Jr.'s shoulder and stood up and said, "I'll go and chat with Seth for a while."

Leaving the seat, Murphy went to the back row, and Seth Logan was sitting in the seat, reading seriously.

He sat opposite Seth Logan, tilted his head and looked, "Elements of the Movie?"

Seth Logan then noticed Murphy, put down the book, scratched the back of his head and smiled honestly, "I bought it before boarding the plane."

"You keep going." Murphy thought it would be better not to disturb him.

Since filming "Deadpool", he has noticed that in addition to acting, Seth Rogen is also learning about director knowledge. This is a very motivated guy.

There is no doubt that Seth Logan and Jonah Hill are both good at funny things, and it is really a waste not to develop in comedy movies. Jonah Hill is not allowed. This fat man likes to play too much and has no idea beyond the actors. He is already co-producing a new film with James Franko and the Bad Boys.

Their relationship is very good, so Murphy also knows these people very well. Seth Logan is capable and has no lack of perseverance. His future actor achievements may not be as good as Robert Downey Jr. and James Franco, but he may become a good comedy director.

Seth Logan has just just served as an assistant director for him, and his ability in this area is far from enough. If he has made some progress in directorship in a few years, he might be able to give it a try.

Looking at Seth Logan who picked up the book again, Murphy naturally flashed the idea. He was not good at comedy, but he had studied a few comedy, and the investment was not big, the risks were relatively small, and it could attract external investment. If it could be successful, the return would not only help Seth Logan, but also a large profit.

At that time, you can also stuff all your small group into it...

Thinking of these messy things, Murphy closed his eyes and a flight attendant brought a towel to cover him.

"Thank you." Murphy opened his eyes, nodded to the other party, and then closed his eyes and fell asleep.

In their sleep, James Franco, Seth Logan, Jonah Hill, Robert Downey Jr. and himself, suddenly appeared in the mansion that Robert Downey Jr. had just purchased from Beverly Hills. They drank and roamed wildly, dancing with countless female stars who arrived, until the sky collapsed and the earth broke out and the flames were surging...

When the plane was about to land, Murphy was woken up by Seth Rogen opposite. The business plane landed smoothly at Fiumicino Airport in Rome. After the crew left the airport, they got into the car from the siege of a bunch of fans and reporters. Murphy got the latest North American box office statistics just reported by the 20th Century Fox.

In the past weekend, "Deadpool" not only had a big box office hit overseas, but still had no competitors in the North American market that has been released for four weeks. The trend is extremely steady. The North American box office in the past three days has only fallen by 40% compared to last weekend. While winning US$27.6 million, it also achieved three consecutive championships in the North American box office rankings!

This is the first time that Murphy has won three box office titles in a row. "Deadpool" is also the first North American film to win three consecutive box office titles this year.

The previous film has already won $186.3 million in North America, $27.6 million this weekend, plus $19.88 million in four working days, the cumulative North American box office of "Deadpool" has reached $233.78 million.

Including the $112.5 million gained overseas this weekend, the global box office of the film easily exceeded $300 million, reaching $346.28 million.

When Murphy and others finished their trip to Rome, Deadpool broke through the $350 million mark without any suspense.
