Cameron's Avatar was released, and it could actually drive the reputation and attendance of the wandering earth, which Cao Yang did not expect.

Because Cameron praised the movies in the Wandering Earth series in an interview, there are now other Ome countries in the country. As long as they buy the Wandering Earth film source, there are already signs of re-releasing.

For some viewers who have seen it, this feeling is not actually bleak, and those who have not seen it feel even more like a novel experience and enjoyment.

So after Avatar, Wandering Earth 2 also achieved good attendance and increased a lot of box office revenue.

After seeing this, Cao Yang couldn't help but sigh, "Sure enough, time will not let down those who work hard. What should come will come."

Who would have thought that the box office of Wandering Earth 1 was so bleak when it was released, but now it can actually make the profits back as if it were the first to lose money?

And Ai Xiaomi was even praised by Cameron.

In the circle before, Ai Xiaomi had not had a great influence. Many people in the industry only needed to have a good financial support father.

So many people commented on her, "If I have a wealthy consortium like Bomi who supports it, and shoot whatever I want, and lose as much as I want, I dare to shoot large-scale science fiction movies."

Although it is a bit sour, at least one thing is that Ai Xiaomi is not very recognized by industry insiders as a new director, and many people think that she is today based on Cao Yang.

Now that Ai Xiaomi's name has come out of Cameron's mouth, the entire film industry is shocked.

Those who didn’t know Ai Xiaomi before are now asking who Ai Xiaomi is.

"Oh, it turns out that she is the director of "The Wandering Earth". I only knew Wu Jing came before, but I didn't remember the name of this director. I didn't expect that our country would have such a talented director and be praised by Cameron. It's amazing."

"Yes, when I was watching the movie, I just thought the wandering earth was really good, the special effects were shocking, the plot was also shocking, and Liu's script was really good.

But the director is a newcomer. I really didn’t remember her name very much. I only knew that she was a cute girl. Didn’t you expect her to be so high?”

...

In short, there are more people on the Internet who praise Ai Xiaomi, and this guy suddenly became famous.

Ai Xiaomi himself did not expect happiness to come so quickly.

However, Cao Yang sneered at these statements on the Internet and looked down on them.

"This is a typical foreign admiration and fawning on foreign countries.

Why didn’t you support me and give me more praise when the wandering earth came out?

Now Cameron says, you think it is fragrant, and Ai Xiaomi is fragrant too.

It's really a bunch of brain-dead."

The environment in 2009 is like this, and there is no way to do so. It only shows that Western cultural penetration is indeed too powerful, and people have accumulated more deeply than us before, so it has been a long time since the United States has a significant voice in the film industry.

It is because of his position in the American film industry that Cameron was able to become the top master in the industry in the minds of so many Chinese people. Only one sentence of his can make the audience [discover] China's own filmmakers.

It's quite sad to think about it. In this era, many Chinese actors were proud to be able to enter Hollywood. They didn't know that they just wanted to make a fortune in the Chinese market. Some Chinese actors had very few scenes in movies. They only gave it to them when they were released in China, and they cut out their shots in other regions.

Just this, people still think that being able to film in Hollywood is like gilding.

Ai Xiaomi listened and nodded constantly, but it took two seconds to react.

"Boss, why do I always feel so awkward when you use the word "scent"?"

...

More than a month after Bomi's "Ghost Blows Out the Light: Jingjue Ancient City" was launched, it seems that the dust has been settled, and the sales volume is fixed at 940,000 copies worldwide.

For ordinary companies, this is already a very impressive achievement.

But for an industry overlord like Bomi, this result has actually not met expectations.

After a celebration meeting, the Ghost Blowing Light project team officially moved into the development of the next Ghost Blowing Light sequel.

The main planner Cheng Xinghua rose instead of falling, and continued to serve as the producer of the next Ghost Blowing Light.

This is something that no one in other departments expected.

According to their ideas, if Cheng Xinghua can sell the game in such a quantity, how can the boss not hold him accountable?

Since there is still a sequel to the Ghost Blows Out the Light?!

This is simply against the sky.

In fact, Cheng Xinghua did a good job, and the boss was standing behind. After the boss talked to them last time, Cheng Xinghua told the members of the project team about this. Although everyone was a little disappointed, the sales of the game did not meet expectations, but what the boss said was very reasonable.

Playing games is not just to make money, but also to know how to export culture.

For those who make games, games carry not only culture, but also their dreams.

If you can realize your dreams and let more people share them together, this matter itself is very meaningful.

So after understanding this truth, the members of the production team of Ghost Blowing Lights were unprecedentedly united.

In the past, I made games to make money, but now the quality of the game does not have a big impact on whether they make money or not. What is more important is whether they can make high-quality games that can become cultural carriers as Boss Cao said.

Of course, it is best to make more money.

The Ghost Blowing Light Production Team has expanded directly from the original 200 people to 600 people, and the next production cycle is expected to be 6 years.

Adequate team staffing, sufficient financial support, and sufficient time.

"Is the boss crazy?"

People from other departments said it was incredible.

Judging from the R&D cost, Ghost Blowing Light 1 is no longer a profit. The development cost of Ghost Blowing Light 2 is at least three times, which means that there should be about 400 million R&D cost. Then, isn’t it inevitable that you will lose money in the future?

"Are the boss starting to use love to generate electricity?"

"If the game is done well, I can understand it. The key is that it is not much money to make it now."

"I didn't understand either, but after listening to the people in their department, I think we are still a little different from other game companies. We are real games companies.

The boss also said that games are a carrier of cultural output. If we do not output our own culture, we will be exported by others, so he must persist in doing it.

This kind of thing that has been done for several years is so common abroad, and it seems that our boss understands this very well."

"Huh? Is that true?"

...

When I heard that Bomi's "Ghost Blows Out the Light: Jingjue Ancient City" was not the most surprising thing, I was not the Bomi's own internal employees, but the people in the same industry.

When NetEase's Ding Sanshi saw Bomi announce the news, he was so surprised that he even dropped his chin.

Because when he held a game company summit, he asserted that big-name celebrity products like Bomi's Ghost Blowing Light will definitely be sold out in the end. Unexpectedly, just a month later, he was slapped in the face.

But this time I was slapped in the face and felt a little comfortable.

In fact, Boss Ding has never played the game of Ghost Blowing Lights at all. Everything is judged based on his own impression, so it is normal for some mistakes to make mistakes.

"Sure enough."

Boss Ding sighed and said to Zhan Zhonghui, the head of the game department next to him, "Look, there are companies in the world that have always made money. Bomi is not able to do anything without any leakage, and will never fail, right?"

Zhan Zhonghui raised his eyebrows. Boss Ding is now becoming more and more popular. The sales volume of 940,000 is no longer a failure, right?

If it were any small company, if it could sell so much sales, it would be a dream to laugh out loud.

Of course, for Bomi, if there is no more than one million products, it will be considered a failure.

Doesn’t this just mean that they completely crushed us?

"So I always think that being an entrepreneur is better to be a pragmatic." Ding Sanshi's face was as happy as a flower, and he couldn't even find the gap in his eyes. "I'm always too idealistic and always taking things for granted. How can there be a reason not to fail?

As expected, Cao Yang was lucky before, and the people below were also very good at comparing the price.

Look now, have you messed up?

Ghost Blowing the Light is not the product Cao Yang wants to make. I thought it was not a very reliable thing at the time. I didn’t expect that a company as big as Bomi was still so persistent, and there was no brains to object to it below.

Look, the final result is like this.

If Bomi follows the current trend, he will make more games like Ghost Blowing Lights. Maybe we can still catch up in the future?"

Ding Sanshi raised his eyebrows and felt very comfortable.

Dingdang stood beside him, tilting his head with a smile, neither agreeing nor objecting.

From the perspective of gamers, he admires Cao Yang very much. He has such courage and dares to make such a niche game, and finally can continue to develop new products after doing [failure]. It is really amazing.

From the company's perspective, if he did, he would definitely not be able to do such a thing. After all, the company still needs to make money and cannot always use love to generate electricity.

It can only be said that it is a pity that Cao Yang’s idea is good, but the reality is indeed too skinny.

It’s because the players don’t understand you, Boss Cao.

...

"I didn't expect that Bomi Company would also fail. This is the result of not fully respecting the market."

On the other side of Xishanju, Mr. Qiu Xin and Mr. Qiu came to the same conclusion.

"I said from the beginning that this kind of niche game is untouchable. You don't believe it yet. I also said that Bomi Company can do it, so why can't we learn it a little? Now it's a slap in the face?"

Qiu Xin criticized the following producers severely.

Guo Weiwei accepted humbly and thought to himself, that's not what you said at the beginning.

A month ago, you said that Bomi Company is a company with ideas and ideals. It is a product like Ghost Blowing Light that is an international and world-class path, but we can't learn it because we don't have so much money and development resources.
