MTL - China Entertainment Ultimate Tycoon-Chapter 29 The real reason for the popularity of "Zhan Long"
Magic Capital, Community 1603.
"Ah, I'm exhausted! This **** road show is finally over!" Ying Bao threw himself on the bed, really wanting to sleep forever.
The month-long roadshow has ended, and the cumulative box office of "Zhan Long" has reached 820 million.
China Film successfully postponed the secret key obtained for "Zhan Long", and gave "Zhan Long" a full two months' release time.
In this way, the release time of "Slaying the Dragon" will reach an unprecedented three months and twelve weeks in domestic films!
Among all the movies broadcast in China, there is only one that can reach this release time, and that is "Avatar" at the beginning of the year!
In the next two months, there is no problem with the total box office of "Zhan Long" exceeding one billion.
But what everyone wants is not that the total box office of "Zhan Long" exceeds one billion.
At this time, everyone is paying attention to whether "Zhan Long" can surpass the domestic total box office record of 1.3 billion set by "Avatar"!
In fact, this is the reason why "Zhan Long" can get three months of release time.
Some high-level executives want to see how far this domestic film can go.
In the case of the same number of days of release, can it beat the box office miracle created by "Avatar"?
The result may even have implications for some decisions at the top.
"Hey, you said that your identity as an Internet **** really has so much bonus? I heard that many entertainment companies are now eyeing the Internet circle, and many companies even sign up well-known Internet authors and then package them into stars. Thoughts." Ying Bao turned his head and asked.
Jiang Bai put down the teacup and smiled faintly: "It's just the whims of some small companies. Do you see the action of the four majors?"
"Actually, any movie becoming a hit is the result of many factors intertwined. It is not objective to simply emphasize the role of a certain factor."
"The support of book fans cannot be ignored for "Zhan Long" to achieve today's achievements, but it is not just the support of book fans that "Zhan Long" can reach today."
Jiang Bai said, his expression couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, he really has a lot of book fans.
But it is not that there are more book fans than him.
For example, the fourth student who is about to enter the film and television industry.
There are more book fans than him!
More importantly, people are gods who came out of the physical book market.
And readers who can afford physical books are usually wealthier.
Their support for idol writers is stronger than that of online readers.
But even so, in the future, the "Little Times" series of the fourth four will only be hundreds of millions at the box office.
"In the final analysis, a movie must first rely on the quality, it doesn't have to be excellent, but at least it can't make the average audience feel too bad."
"Take "Slaying the Dragon" as an example. First of all, it is a relatively good movie, so that the audience does not feel that buying tickets is a disadvantage."
"On this basis, the action of other factors begins to create a virtuous circle."
"As far as "Zhan Long" is concerned, after having a good quality base, my book fans are the first factor for his box office take-off, "Avatar" is the second factor for his box office take-off, and other National Day films are The third factor in his soaring box office!"
Ying Bao wondered: "I can understand that you say that fans are the first factor, but what does it have to do with "Avatar" and the film of the same period?"
Jiang Bai lit a cigarette, took a sip, and said with a smile: "At the beginning of the year, "Avatar" swept the domestic box office of 1.3 billion, making domestic movies all over the place, and it seemed to hurt a lot.
But in my opinion, the appearance of "Avatar" is actually beneficial and harmless to domestic films.
Do you understand the catfish effect?
"Avatar" is the catfish in the domestic movie market.
Its biggest role is to improve the horizons of domestic audiences and let everyone know what a real Hollywood blockbuster is!
There is no harm without comparison. After watching a real Hollywood blockbuster, domestic audiences will have polarized attitudes towards domestic films.
On the one hand, losing interest in the backward domestic special effects films, domestic special effects films will usher in a cold winter.
But on the other hand, audiences also have great expectations for domestic films that can reach the Hollywood level.
Therefore, when "Zhan Long" appeared, although it was not perfect in terms of script, actors, etc., it was still greatly welcomed by the audience.
They have been looking forward to a domestic movie with Hollywood's top special effects for too long! "
"This is the help of "Avatar"? What do you mean by other films on National Day?" Ying Bao asked again.
Jiang Bai smiled and said: "This is very simple. When I analyzed the National Day stalls market before, I said that only "Di Renjie: Tongtian Empire" can form a head-on competition with "Dragon Slaying"!
But what movie is this?
This is the same as "Zhan Long", an action blockbuster featuring special effects!
In all fairness, the special effects level of "Di Renjie: The Empire of Heaven" is not bad.
The actor's acting skills and appeal are several grades stronger than "Dragon Slaying", which can basically be regarded as the top production of the current domestic special effects blockbuster.
If there is no "Dragon Slaying", its appearance will meet the expectations of domestic audiences to a certain extent, and then it will win 200 to 300 million box office.
But his mistake is that he should not fight against "Zhan Long".
With the level of special effects of "Dragon Slaying", any current domestic movie featuring special effects will be crushed into slag!
This is the reason why the box office of "Di Renjie: The Empire of Heaven" fell off a cliff.
As for "Slaying the Dragon", it is a great blessing to have only "Di Renjie: Tongtian Empire" as an opponent on the National Day file!
Because not all audiences like to watch special effects blockbusters, as long as there is a film of other themes, it is impossible for "Dragon Slaying" to completely occupy this market.
But it happened that "Di Renjie: The Empire of Heaven" and "Slaying the Dragon" fought against each other.
This is equivalent to giving up the entire National Day audience to "Zhan Long". If the box office of Zhan Long does not take off, there will be ghosts! "Jiang Bai said lightly.
Ying Bao exclaimed: "There are so many things in here? Does anyone else know about these things except you?"
"Pfft, of course I know, you think everyone is like you, so stupid and sweet! They are all thousand-year-old foxes, which one is not better than a ghost?
As soon as the box office of "Zhan Long" came out on the first day, the invitation letters from the four major companies were sent to me. What do you think is the reason for this? "Jiang Bai laughed.
Ying Bao said in surprise: "But, but, no one in the media has ever said this?"
"The media? Hehe, you can believe what they say!" Jiang Bai laughed disdainfully.
"Although these things are not so secret, if you don't know much about the domestic market, it is generally unexpected.
In this case, let them turn their attention to the online author, one can avoid the scolding, and secondly, it is also convenient for them to secretly plan to seize the opportunity, why not do it? "
