Chapter 482: with translation of chapter title

The Fast and the Furious 2 was released for 34 days, with the global box office finally settling at $24.22 billion.

Named entities: The Fast and the Furious 2 (movie title). Also maybe "USD" is currency, not a named entity. So include movie title.

This number is only slightly higher than the first installment, yet it has already shaken the entire film industry.

Named entities: first part maybe not a named entity; it's generic. "film industry" generic. So none.

After all, the shock brought by the first installment of Fast & Furious is far beyond what the second can achieve, and the executive director is not Lin Mo.

Named entities: Fast & Furious (movie series), first part, second part, executive director (maybe a role but not a specific name); Lin Mo. So include Fast & Furious and Lin Mo.

So being able to gross $24 billion is already incredibly impressive.

No named entities.

Of course.

None.

It's mainly thanks to Saudi Arabia; Prince Salman's promotion was extremely impressive.

Named entities: Saudi Arabia, Prince Salman. Also maybe "promotion" is generic.

A week before the premiere, it can be said that Saudi Arabia bought out the entire country's cinemas, just to support the box office of The Fast and the Furious 2, offering free viewing for the first week!

Additionally, there was a movie-watching lottery that gave away a gold-plated Lamborghini; at the time, this gimmick could be said to have exploded globally.

It attracted fans from around the world who flocked to Saudi Arabia.

Named entities: Saudi Arabia.

Look, Qin Xu, that is the lucky winner.

Named entities: Qin Xu. Also maybe "winning" is generic.

He has now become a TikTok internet celebrity.

Named entities: TikTok is a real-world brand/app; exclude. So none.

Every day he just shows off the car, and his traffic surges.

"Wow, the top three global box office films, two of them are our Huaguo movies!"

Named entities: Huaguo. Also maybe "top three global box office" is generic.

"It still has to be Director Lin!"

"Brothers, don't worry, there's still Director Lin's new work, Batman: The Dark Knight!"

Named entities: Director Lin, Batman: The Dark Knight.

"I have a strong feeling that Batman: The Dark Knight will create a new box office legend!"

Named entities: Batman: The Dark Knight.

"Actually, if it weren't for Saudi Arabia's unstoppable promotion, I estimate that Fast & Furious 2 might not have achieved such high box office!"

Named entities: Saudi Arabia, Fast & Furious 2.

"Nonsense, look at Prince Salman himself—he's mobilizing the whole nation for promotion!"

Named entities: Prince Salman.

"To be fair, Saudi Arabia also made a killing, right? Look at the release of Fast & Furious 2—how much has Saudi Arabia's tourism industry expanded!"

Named entities: Saudi Arabia, Fast & Furious 2.

「...... 」

None.

Online, netizens have been discussing it nonstop.

None.

Weibo hot searches, TikTok hot list.

Lin Mo had just hung up on Han San Ye's phone call when the phone rang again.

Named entities: Lin Mo, Han San Ye.

James, Cameron!

Named entities: James, Cameron.

Seeing this call, Lin Mo was stunned for a moment.

Named entities: Lin Mo.

Last time at the movie premiere in Saudi Arabia, Lin Mo and Cameron had exchanged contact information.

Named entities: Saudi Arabia, Lin Mo, Cameron.

"Hey, James." Lin Mo answered the phone, smiling and greeting in English.

Named entities: James, Lin Mo.

"Lin! Congratulations!" Soon, Cameron's voice came through the earpiece, with a hearty laugh: "You're pushing me to hurry up and finish Avatar 2!"

Named entities: Lin (referring to Lin Mo), Avatar 2.

At home, Lin Mo leaned on the sofa, casually picked up the water cup on the coffee table, took a sip, and said: "Come on, your Avatar is just a big mountain, not easy to get past~!"

Named entities: Lin Mo, Avatar.

"Hahaha!" Cameron laughed loudly: "To be honest, I'm actually thinking about collaborating with Prince Salman, though I don't know if he'll hold a lottery event at that time~"

Named entities: Cameron, Prince Salman.

"Definitely will happen, you're a legendary director—should I call Prince Salman right now to tell him this good news?" Lin Mo said teasingly.

Named entities: Prince Salman, Lin Mo.

Just kidding.

None.

This is none other than the legendary director Cameron, whom fans call the 'Cameron God'!

Named entities: Cameron.

If he wanted to collaborate with Prince Salman, the other party would surely be thrilled.

Named entities: Prince Salman.

Money?

None.

For Saudi Arabia, this is trivial.

Named entities: Saudi Arabia.

What they want is cultural promotion.

None.

This time, the collaboration between Prince Salman and Lin Mo on The Fast and the Furious 2 had a very noticeable effect.

Named entities: Prince Salman, Lin Mo, The Fast and the Furious 2.

"Haha!"

None.

The two chatted casually on the phone for a few sentences.

None.

Then, Cameron's tone became a bit more serious: "Lin, my Avatar 2 actually started filming over a year ago, and this time's shooting location, I still chose Zhangjiajie."

Named entities: Lin, Avatar 2, Zhangjiajie.

He paused and continued: "Next month, I will bring my team to Huaguo, Lin, you'll be my guide and show me the scenery of your country!"

Named entities: Huaguo, Lin.

"Sure!" Lin Mo readily agreed.

Named entities: Lin Mo.

"Then it's settled!" Cameron laughed, "By the way, according to analysis from some overseas film institutions, the probability that your new movie Batman: The Dark Knight will break my box office record upon release is over eighty percent!"

Named entities: Batman: The Dark Knight.

Hearing this, Lin Mo smiled and said: "Don't worry, James, you're my good friend; I'll give you some face—maybe just exceed by 100 million or 200 million~"

Named entities: Lin Mo, James.

From the other end of the phone came Cameron's laughter: "Lin, wait up—I'm going to push my effects team to work overtime!!!"

Named entities: Lin.

After hanging up, Lin Mo shook his head and smiled; just as he put down his phone, he saw Re Ba poking her head out from the kitchen: "Honey, who was that? You were speaking English the whole time~"

Named entities: Lin Mo, Re Ba.

"Cameron said he wants Avatar 2 to come to Huaguo for filming, hoping I'll be his guide and take him out for a few days~!" Lin Mo got up and walked toward her, "By the way, he politely expressed his concern about the box office of my new movie Batman: The Dark Knight, worrying that it would break his record!"

Named entities: Cameron, Avatar 2, Huaguo, Lin Mo, Batman: The Dark Knight.

Re Ba blinked and said: "His concern is valid, honey—your new movie will definitely break Avatar's box office record!!!!"

Named entities: Re Ba, Avatar.

Lin Mo reached out and pinched her cheek:

Named entities: Lin Mo.

"Your little mouth is as sweet as honey!"

None.

The Fast and the Furious 2 rose to second place in global box office.

Named entities: The Fast and the Furious 2.

Originally, Fast & Furious 1 dropped to third place.

Named entities: Fast & Furious 1.

Cameron was right.

Named entities: Cameron.

Now, some overseas film institutions.

None.

They are all using various data to analyze and speculate whether Lin Mo's new movie Batman: The Dark Knight can break the record set by Avatar!

Named entities: Lin Mo, Batman: The Dark Knight, Avatar.

Through various data, it shows.

The fame and influence of this Eastern director have already reached an astonishing level worldwide.

British Duel, Fast & Furious 1 (Abbrev), Fast & Furious 2 (abbr)...

Each film's box office is higher than the previous one.

His fame also rose in this way.

Perhaps, if you say Lin Mo's name, some foreign film fans might not know.

But if you mention the director of British Duel, the Fast and Furious Series.

They will immediately remember.

And they will also say: 'Who, you said is actually that legendary Eastern director!'

Now, these foreign film fans.

What they call Lin Mo.

Legendary Eastern director!
