"It's great to congratulate, we also have our own science fiction movie!"
"I say important things three times. This is real science fiction! Real science fiction! Real science fiction! It's not just a superficial thing! This movie is really explosive! It is definitely the most ambitious movie in the history of our country's film industry, bar none!"
"..."
The Internet has exploded.
If we say that the public opinion caused by the Wuzhen road show is like throwing a stone in calm waters.
The intensity of the Changsha roadshow on its first day is equivalent to dropping another bomb on a still, rippled surface.
The most intuitive effect is that on the day when the Wuzhen Road Show was first promoted, the hot topic was ranked among the top 100 hot searches. It was fermented by the film critic Lao Wei's article #leading the existence of a new field of film art.
, and it has only entered the top twenty hot searches.
After a few days of roadshows in Hunan, it faded away and fell to the top of the 30 or 40 hot searches.
But now, on the first day of the Changsha movie viewing road show, the popularity of the topic has rushed up, and it has skyrocketed towards the top ten.
The new group of viewers who had watched the movie were very excited and watched as the Wuzhen audience blew the movie up to the sky. At that time, those who had never seen the movie were in the fog and couldn't figure out what was going on.
Everyone calls the movie a "masterpiece", a "masterpiece", etc. I just think this is too exaggerated, right?
But after watching the movie with their own eyes, this new group of viewers want to slap the table and say that the comments made by the brothers and sisters in Wuzhen are not exaggerated at all!
Really, there are no adjectives that can describe their feelings after watching the movie, and all the words they can think of were used by the Wuzhen audience.
If we want to describe this movie-watching experience as a metaphor, the feeling this movie brings to them should be comparable to the epoch-making feeling recorded in global film history in the 1950s and 1960s, when movies suddenly changed from silent films to talkies.
It is difficult to explain this feeling, but a more appropriate metaphor can be used to explain it. This is like being under magical attack from the West all year round. We can only be passive, tolerate, retreat, and watch without winning, until
After watching the similar domestic blockbuster "Sky Curtain"...
Alas? We can cultivate ourselves!
This cultivation is really based on my own traditional culture, not Western magic.
This has made the previous gap between film and television even, and some pictures with overwhelming visual impact have a sense of transcendence, whether it is national confidence, cultural confidence, visual impact, or shocking special effects, anyway
This is very cool!
"The Rise of Chinese Films!!"
""Tianmu: The Battle of the City" is awesome!!"
"There was an idiot on the Tianya Forum who told me that China will never be able to produce science fiction, and science fiction belongs to the West. Now I want to say, go fuck yourself, all the people whose spines have been bent by the false culture of the West
Get lost, "Skyfall" is the worst!"
"..."
Because of the shock and passion brought by the movie, the speeches of the new group of audiences were very emotional, and the emotional output of the audience in Biu Town was even worse.
The circle of discussion has expanded, the popularity of the topic has increased, and more people are paying attention. Under the watchful eyes of most of the people who have never seen the movie but have a strong sense of curiosity, they want to make their comments more noticeable.
There are only two ways to express your sense of participation and superiority, either make comments that are more exaggerated and powerful than the Wuzhen audience, or slander them in the opposite direction.
But in the face of such a surprising movie, any audience with normal aesthetics can't find a reason to denigrate it. They can only use their own emotional output to praise the movie even more. Only in this way can they express that they have watched it in advance.
The film’s sense of glory and vanity.
Of course, there are also sincere praises for this movie.
There are also some bits and pieces of black talk on the Internet, almost all of which are completely unfounded and slanderous without having seen the movie. Such unreasonable and neurotic remarks have not made any big waves yet. It is normal that some good and some bad
Public opinion situation.
What really boosted the popularity of this wave of movies was the major media across the country.
Originally, for some big media, it was enough to pay a little attention to a movie's road show. On the day of the premiere, the movie company would naturally invite them to watch the movie and then report on it.
I just didn't expect that this movie would take an unusual path and suddenly become popular before it reached the stage of vigorous promotion. Moreover, the traffic was spontaneously generated by the audience, which successfully attracted the attention of some major media.
Among the small public opinions caused by the Wuzhen roadshow a few days ago, only self-media and small media were used to attract and promote traffic.
In this road show in Changsha, private media such as Xinlang, Souhu, Penguin, Wangyi, Oriental Entertainment, Southern Entertainment, official media such as the entertainment channels of major TV stations, and capital media such as Xiangjiang Phoenix TV, Baodao Movie Channel
, even national media such as CCTV’s Six Princesses sent a media person here.
This battle is not a big one, and the road show has been turned into a premiere. This also shows that this domestic science fiction has great appeal to the film industry and the media industry. Due to the first wave of small public opinion,
Everyone wanted to come and find out the true appearance in advance so that they could follow up and report.
The audience spontaneously pushed the movie to a very high level. Without the temptation of huge profits, no media would offend people for no reason. It was the big bosses who were offended, and more than one big boss, Cui Cui, Hua Hua.
The three big bosses of Ying, Ying and Huang.
Then we should take advantage of the situation and follow the rhythm of the audience to add fuel to the flames. In one fell swoop, the popularity of "Skyfall: At the Gates" has increased to several levels, and after only one day of fermentation, it has strongly entered the top ten of hot searches.
Ranked fifth on the entertainment list and ninth on the overall micro-entertainment list.
It is difficult for natural traffic to compete with the existence of "buying lists" unless the benefits brought by public opinion outweigh the benefits of selling lists.
The number one position in the overall micro-entertainment list was “reminded” by relevant departments after the “Korean Wave” incident in 2007. From then on, this number one position will always be reserved for national events.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As for the second and third positions in the overall list, if there are no "special requirements" from relevant departments and there are no other major national events that need to be reported, then these two positions and subsequent positions are
A pit that can "sell the list".
Ranked ninth on the overall list and fifth on the entertainment list, and all traffic is natural. It can be said that the popularity is so high that the media will send it to heaven.
This is a hardship for the staff of the company's marketing department, as the current situation is completely beyond their plans.
There is still one and a half months until the release, and there is so much popularity now. Unless you spend a lot of money to sustain this popularity for another month and a half, what kind of publicity method can be used by then to build momentum for the release?
This completely breaks away from their step-by-step promotion plan.
But there is still some joy that should be felt. Promoting this movie has been their job for the past few months, and now they have not contributed much at all. The movie has become popular on its own, which undoubtedly gives them a sense of collective honor.
As for what will happen next, we can only keep an eye on it and pray for no accidents. With such high praise, if it falls, the consequences will be quite serious.
Regardless of external disturbances, the road show at Changsha Station continues to be in full swing.
With one screening after another, groups of audiences contributed topics, and waves of media hype boosted the topic, making the topic of the movie advance one by one on the micro-entertainment hot search list.
.
The road show was a big hit, but it couldn't be released to the public? This made other movies in the same period very unhappy.
"It's so hot."
The second day of the Changsha roadshow was the last one of the Hunan roadshow stop.
Starry Night, Cinema Grand Screening Hall.
At the back and to the side, the three big bosses of Enlight Media, Wang Changtian, Huayi Brothers Wang Zhonglei, and Chengtian Jiahe Wu Kebo, sat side by side.
I made an appointment in advance to watch this movie during the last show. I thought there wouldn't be many people coming to watch the movie at the last show, so I could have some peace and quiet while watching the movie.
But obviously the road show situation of this movie cannot be predicted based on past market conditions. Not only were the 500 auditoriums full, but when we entered, we saw a large number of people outside wanting to come in and watch the movie.
This situation was so incredible that Wang Changtian couldn't help but sigh.
Hearing his "fiery" emotion, Vukopo seemed to be stimulated, and his right eyelid couldn't help but blink.
How does the old saying about feudal superstition come from?
Jump right eye jump Choi disaster?
So the inexplicable shaking of his right eye is an ominous sign?
Wu Kebo's nerves are a bit sensitive, just because the film "Skyfall" has been so popular on the Internet in the past two days.
The more popular it became, the more impatient it made him feel.
The more he heard the good news, the more he felt that he had to pay compensation of 20 million US dollars, which was 140 million yuan.
He is very confident in Hollywood movies, but the current situation is not a question of whether he is confident or not. In fact, the direction of public opinion really affects a person's judgment of things.
Almost everyone who has seen this movie said it was good, and people who had not seen this movie burst into curiosity and expectation because everyone said it was good. This kind of market share is equivalent to cutting off his "Space Men" step by step.
》meat.
As a result, before he even watched the movie, his mentality was a little uneasy.
Hearing Wang Changtian say that the heat of the movie scene was like stepping on his nerves, which made him extremely uncomfortable.
But Wang Changtian turned his head and said to him, this old man definitely did it on purpose.
Even though he didn't want to reply, he could only endure the discomfort and reply calmly: "The roadshow is so popular, I'm afraid it won't be easy to publicize it later."
This is true, and it is the same as what the Bright Times marketing department is worried about, fearing that it will not be able to build on the popularity and build momentum for the release.
However, does this have anything to do with you, Wukopo? Does it have anything to do with you if people want to publicize it? You are still concerned about your competitors. Is this to hide your unhappiness?
"Well, it's a little hard to publicize." Wang Changtian raised the corner of his mouth slightly. It's fun to see the "embarrassment" of people at the same level. He casually replied and turned his head, secretly savoring the words from the side.
A little bit of happiness brought about by the position.
Wang Zhonglei sat on the third seat inside, pressed his head back, and secretly glanced to the right at Wu Kebo, who was sitting on the outermost seat, and felt a little bit of fun in his heart.
Anyone who knows something about the movie industry knows that basically only one movie of the same type can survive in the same period, and the other one is either just a stumbling block or pure cannon fodder.
However, these two films of the same type are divided into domestic and foreign films, which further intensifies the competition between them. Life or death may be decided a few days before release.
Compared to those of them who work on non-sci-fi and non-special effects movies, they were either jealous or unhappy when they saw that the roadshow of this movie was so popular. And all of them knew very well that the person who was the most unhappy was Wu Kebo.
Assuming that this science fiction film is unique in its time period, it does not mean that non-science fiction films such as these are not able to drink at all.
But if this science fiction film is truly outstanding, it means that it is unknown whether there is any residue from Vukopo's "Space Men", let alone the soup.
Originally he was unhappy when the movie became so popular, but now that he saw Vukobo sitting next to him, he felt a little better instantly. There was someone who was more unhappy about this than him. In this poor capital circle, there will always be
Make others feel comfortable.
However, when Wang Zhonglei and the two "old friends" next to him quietly watched a movie for dozens of minutes, the better mood sank to the bottom again.
"The filming is really good and the processing is really good." Wang Changtian looked at the screen and commented with great appreciation.
It's just that he seemed to speak normally with an appreciative attitude, but there was a feeling of irritating others intentionally or unintentionally.
As expected, after hearing what he said, Wang Zhonglei and Wu Kebo's expressions darkened, but they soon returned to normal. They both showed admiration for the movie, but they were just pretending to be fake.
"What a great domestic science fiction movie." Wang Changtian said again.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Wang Zhonglei and Wu Kebo twitched their faces. They finally saw clearly that this old fox was here to make fun of them. He made a cartoon for the National Day.
It was released at the same time, and there is no competition between these movies. They are shamelessly talking about it as a melon-eater who is just sitting back and watching the changes.
Real dog!
Wang Changtian glanced at each other, seeing the angry expressions in his eyes for a moment.
As if it was not enough, he turned to Wang Zhonglei and said: "A film review said it well. Whether it is the wrap-around lens art in the movie, the high-burning high-quality special effects pictures, or the harmonious combination of Chinese style and science fiction, it all represents
As the domestic film field has reached a new milestone..."
He rushed to Vukopo and added: "It has also entered a new stage of visual effects. We will go have a late-night snack later and there will be a lot to talk about. Maybe this movie will have a big change in our industry."
eat supper?
Let’s talk about “Skyfall: The Enemy”?
Is there much more to talk about?
Wang Zhonglei and Wu Kebo have the urge to strangle this old guy. They clearly know that this movie is their competition. The waves of excitement are endless, right?
"Catch a flight back in the evening, next time." Vukobo calmed down and said.
Facts have proven that the positive public opinion about the movie on the Internet is directly proportional to the quality of the movie.
Even though he didn't want to admit it, this was indeed a fact he had seen with his own eyes.
Watching it with a hostile filter, he didn't exclaim like the audience, nor did he feel the visual effects immersively at all.
But the perception brought about by the appearance of the picture also made him question: Is this a movie that can be produced in China?
Just such a question, and it is just the perception brought about by the appearance of the picture, is enough to explain everything.
what to do?
Will "Spacemen" be withdrawn?
He lost confidence. Judging from the facts he had seen with his own eyes and his personal feelings, he had to admit that "Space Men" was indeed worse than this movie... just a little bit.
But, withdrawal?
Pulling Hollywood blockbusters?
This is an insult to Hollywood capital, and they will definitely not agree to it.
Moreover, even if the schedule is withdrawn, to which schedule can it be transferred?
November is a mediocre month, and they will not agree to put Hollywood blockbusters on a mediocre schedule.
December is the beginning of the Lunar New Year period, which is a good period, but there is news that "Avatar" will arrive in this period.
Next year's New Year's Day schedule is a bit worse but not bad, but there are rumors that the Hollywood disaster film "2012" will be released in this schedule.
What about the Spring Festival release? I heard that "Transformers" is being reviewed for the Spring Festival release!
Three real Hollywood science fiction blockbusters have occupied the three major domestic movies in the future. How can he compete with this third-rate Hollywood science fiction film?
I can only watch it during the National Day, and I can only face "Sky Curtain: The Enemy"!
"I have to go back and think of countermeasures." Wu Kebo's face was calm, but the dark thoughts in his heart began to fly wildly.
Wang Zhonglei has other ideas. He is not just focusing on this National Day competition, but thinking further.
The existence that leads a new field of film art?... This was a statement that was promoted by the media in a bullish way. After he saw the movie with his own eyes, he had to admit that it was true despite his unwillingness to admit defeat.
In the past, there were blockbusters with special effects in the market, but those blockbusters were all foreign, and the audience market was unparalleled. We could only hope that the domestic film industry would develop rapidly.
In the past, all domestic studios and film companies would not produce such special effects blockbusters, so they would collectively mess it up, and continue to make the audience market incomparable.
However, with the emergence of this domestically produced science fiction film, its quality is enough to break this bad situation. Domestic film studios and film companies can no longer collectively compete in terms of special effects and visual effects.
Otherwise, the audience market will say: "Our country has special effects. Brilliant Era is so good, "Skyfall" is so good, the special effects and visual effects of your movie are rubbish!"
This is the core focus. Nothing else. This science fiction can comprehensively raise the audience's aesthetic standards for film and television art!
He really didn't want to admit it, but judging from the enthusiastic response from the audience, this fact that he didn't want to admit was happening.
Just because of this, the domestic film industry has to follow up on the development and investment of special effects, unless it does not make movies with special effects.
However, both ancient wars and modern wars all have special effects to some extent, not to mention fairy tales and mythological themes.
As soon as this sci-fi comes out, if you want to avoid being compared by the audience, not being criticized for lowering your aesthetic standards, and thus losing the audience market, you can only aim to match the quality of the special effects and visual effects of this sci-fi.
Once this movie is released nationwide, once this movie proves its commercial value in the market, all major domestic film studios and film companies will have to reform, follow up, and add special effects or special effects to their industrial chain.
The visual effects department may increase investment costs in special effects and visual effects.
He could expect to visit the Brilliant Era to learn from the experience, or go to the Huaying Studio to observe and learn.
Therefore, what the film critic said about "leading a new field of film art" is true.
However, there is a premise for all of this. In order for "Skyfall" to prove its commercial value during its release, it needs to have a good film schedule before it is released. Before it can get a good share of the film schedule, it needs to continue the current positive public opinion.
Public opinion is the first hurdle, and at this first moment...
Wang Zhonglei does not believe that the film capital circle and related overseas cultural circles will sit back and watch this movie all the way. Once this movie sets off a wave of domestic science fiction and special effects, it will inevitably affect the established development direction of domestic film capital and will inevitably
Squeeze the domestic development space of overseas film and television capital.
The suppression is for sure, they will not let this movie go all the way.
"Excellent things are worth learning, but being too good may not be a good thing." After watching the movie, Wang Zhonglei thought to himself, stood up and prepared to leave with the audience.
"Eh? Mr. Wang, you don't want to have midnight snack? Mr. Wu is not free, so let's go. I'll invite you." Wang Changtian invited.
Wang Zhonglei tried his best to show a gentle smile: "Another day, the company has other things to do, and I have to catch a flight back."
"Okay, let's meet up another day." Wang Changtian nodded slightly, walked out of the cinema with his two "old friends", and watched them leave in the car with their respective drivers waiting to pick them up.
He didn't know how much Vukopo had to pay to get his Hollywood science fiction film, but given that Hollywood capital was always used to squeezing domestic capital, the price must have been high.
Now that he has watched "Skyfall", he put aside the jokes and fun during the movie viewing process, and he evaluated it from a very objective perspective. This movie is worthy of the words "leading the times" spread online.
Now, Vukobo is under pressure.
Chengcai has completed the merger with Golden Harvest and wants to make a good start as a group with a Hollywood blockbuster. If the loss goes to my grandma's family, I don't know if the island capital behind him will replace him as the chairman.
Then this is interesting.
In his opinion, Vukopo must be playing tricks.
As for Wang Zhonglei, Huayi's "The Wind" is not similar to the movie "The Wind" in terms of genre, and there is always the "Space Men" in front of it. If the movie "The Wind" really stands out, and "The Wind"
If the quality can be guaranteed, then Huayi will make less money at most, and the competition here will not have much impact on his spy film.
From the perspective of the leader of Huayi, what Wang Zhonglei is more concerned about, and should consider more, is the impact this movie will have on the market and industry, and the changes it will cause.
If this movie is successful, Bright Times will take advantage of the situation and try to open up the film derivative industry, so that their sci-fi brand influence can be comprehensively maximized and the corresponding returns can be recycled. Then Huayi will always be the leader in sci-fi, special effects, and visual effects.
Nor can we keep up with the pace of the glorious era.
Unless Huayi fully cooperates with overseas film and television capital, it will be able to compete with Bright Times in terms of these technologies.
However, Huayi will be listed this year or next year. If you want to cooperate with those overseas vampires and obtain their technology, your shares in Huayi will be gone.
At that time, we may not know whether Huayi is the Huayi of your big and small kings or the Huayi of Western capital.
What he could think of, Wang Zhonglei and his brother could certainly think of, that the people who played tricks with Wu Kebo would add two generals.
"The Brilliant Era..." Wang Changtian said with a smile: "It's amazing. Among the three domestic film giants, you have stirred up the sensitive nerves of the eldest and third eldest brother with just one movie. It's thanks to me, the second eldest brother, that you can't do anything, otherwise it would be a headache.
.”
"Boss, where are you going?" the bodyguard asked.
Wang Changtian looked around and fixed his eyes on a late night snack shop on the pedestrian street: "Let's go get something to eat. Those two guys are not in the mood. I'm in a good mood."
"Then I'll go to the car to get an umbrella. The weather forecast says it's going to rain in the middle of the night." The bodyguard said, walking to the car to get an umbrella.
"Is it raining?" Wang Changtian looked up at the sky. There were no stars in the dark night, and there seemed to be a feeling that a storm was coming.
However, he got interested and improvised a poem of his own: "When the clear sky passes today, heavy rain will come from all directions, melon seeds and peanuts are ready, the opera singers please come on stage."
Whoever wins or loses, he is always ready to sit and watch.
