Chapter 207. [Armageddon]

Time flies so fast, it’s Christmas time in North America.

Movies such as "Daddy" produced by Columbia, "The Green Mile" produced by Universal Pictures, and "Notting Hill" produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer have all been released in North America.

Now the entire film market is fierce and full of smoke. The major film companies are going all out, hoping to become the biggest winner in this year's Christmas season by virtue of their own excellent films.

In fact, these Hollywood blockbusters that are currently being released and are about to be released have not yet formed a real "impact wave" because they have just been released. In contrast, the Warner blockbuster "The Matrix 2", which has been released for several days, has not yet formed a real "impact wave" due to its release.

It was released earlier and has already won very good box office and reputation in North America.

The movie "The Matrix 2", directed by the Hollywood Wachowski brothers, already had a box office of 5 million US dollars on its opening day. It is roughly estimated that the lowest box office in the first week of release will reach about 27 million US dollars. And the movie's box office

The reputation is even more overwhelming. Almost every audience member who has watched this drama will give a thumbs up without hesitation: "It's really great!"

And the mainstream entertainment newspapers and magazines in the United States have also hyped up this drama. Of course, almost all of them are praising and saying good things.

The US's "Hollywood Daily" said: "The sequel to 'The Matrix' did not disappoint the majority of movie fans. The strictly forbidden storyline, rich science fiction design, and fierce action scenes of the leading actors can all give this movie 90 points!"

"Entertainment New Weekly" of the United States: "The Wachowski brothers used their special shooting techniques to recreate a science fiction feast, making their fans ecstatic."

"Entertainment New Times" of the United States: "Genius! This is the only word that can be used to describe the Wachowski brothers. The two of them used their extremely dazzling talents to make "The Matrix 2" shine brightly!"

"Except for these two brothers who can shoot such a great video, no one else can!"



In addition to the mainstream media's lavish praise for this drama, there are also some media who like to make trouble for nothing, and they have pulled out Yi Feiyang's upcoming "Dance Floor" and the sci-fi movie "Hackers" which has gained both word-of-mouth and box office success.

2》Make comparison.

"Although China Yi's new film has not yet been released, the situation is very serious. We see that the wonderful "The Matrix 2" is now sweeping across North America! The high box office and high reputation have already explained everything. China Yi wants to beat the Wachowski Brothers

, it doesn’t look easy!”

The above comment is quite pertinent. Some of the comments are a little too outrageous.

"Ha, did you see that, "The Matrix 2" will soon be released to Warner Films and will bring great miracles to the Wachowski brothers! This pair of American talented brothers, who attracted the attention of the audience when they debuted, have proved with their strength

Well, who is the real winner! As for the Chinese director China Yi who always likes to hype, I am afraid that this time he will be ashamed in front of the high box office of "The Matrix 2"! Yes, he will definitely feel very embarrassed.

, I wish I could find a hole in the ground to crawl into! Oh, poor guy!"

In fact, as "Hackers 2" continues to achieve good box office results, not to mention that these media are not very optimistic about Yi Feiyang's new drama, even some directors and filmmakers in Hollywood are not very optimistic about Yi Feiyang. The reason is very simple, whether it is

In terms of shooting techniques and sci-fi concept, "Hackers 2" has far surpassed the first one and has become an invincible battleship in this Christmas war!



Faced with numerous powerful enemies, the arrogance of "The Matrix 2", and the upcoming Christmas season, Fantasy Pictures held a collective mobilization meeting the day before the premiere of "The Dance".

The purpose of this mobilization meeting is very simple, which is to encourage everyone. Unfortunately, the beginning of this meeting is a bit depressing.

At the mobilization meeting of Fantasy Pictures, Dures, as the publicity director, told everyone about the current gathering of blockbusters during the Christmas period.

Then the entire conference room fell silent.

The opponents are too powerful and there are too many masters!

Especially the movie "The Matrix 2" is so popular!



Silence, continue to be silent.

After a moment, the fat man Gao Jiabao suddenly jumped up and said loudly: "I'm afraid of a bird! We have Mike, we have street dancing, and the publicity is very popular. Coupled with A Yang's filming skills, we will definitely win a big victory!"

"Yes, we are not afraid of those guys, just let the big storm come more violently!" Rabbit Bill also stood up and roared.

"That is, as long as Boss Yi is here, we are not afraid of anything!" Jack Black vowed.

Although Fatty Gao Jiabao, Rabbit Bill, Jack Black, James Wan and others were very confident in Yi Feiyang's "Dance Floor" drama, Yi Feiyang's mood became more and more heavy. They didn't know what happened in history.

The films produced by the company have achieved brilliant results, both artistically and at the box office.

For example, "The Green Mile" and "Notting Hill" have won numerous awards, and even pointed to Oscars. "The Matrix 2", which competes with Yi Feiyang, is not a good one, and has won a lot of Oscar nominations.

It can be said that this Christmas war will be the most brutal in history. It is not easy to fight a way out of these movies, not to mention not only these movies, Yi Feiyang makes people

According to statistics, 18 movies will meet the audience in December.

Regarding these movies, the major theaters are very tolerant, and it is natural to support the movies produced by their own companies. In addition, they are also open-minded to other movies. Whose movies can make money, they will release them

Movie.

So later on, no matter what kind of movie it is, no matter which director it is, there is only one thing that we fight for, which is the box office.

To be honest. Historically, whether it was Warner, Universal, or Columbia, the Christmas movies they shot almost all had a box office of over 100 million. But the problem is that now they are all gathered here. North American theaters are limited and the screening time slots are limited.

The number is limited, and in the end who can stand out from the crowd and become the king of the box office is unpredictable.

Let’s talk about the movie "The Dance" directed by Yi Feiyang. At that time and space, this movie was one of the best movies in Indian Bollywood. It was also well received when it was released in Hollywood. But the problem is that he almost told the story of this movie in the United States.

ization, and the actors are also undergoing a major change. I don’t know what the effect will be after such modifications? The main reason is that this is not an era when hip-hop is popular. It can be imagined how difficult it is to win in the Christmas season with a new thing like hip-hop.

.After all, the first person who dares to eat crabs is not necessarily a warrior, but may be a martyr!

Compared to the hustle and bustle of Fatty and others, Dures seemed very calm. He glanced at everyone present, then turned his attention to Yi Feiyang and said: "Yi, it can be said that almost all the big companies in Hollywood are here.

"You have released your own movie on the schedule. This will be an unprecedented battle. Whether you can break through depends on whether your "Dance Floor" will become a box office hit like those movies you created miracles." Du Lei

Si looked at Yi Feiyang and sighed.

What Dures mentioned is relatively confidential information. Hearing that there are so many opponents in "The Dance", and they are all among the top companies in Hollywood, one can imagine the pressure on Yi Feiyang. If "The Dance"

"Can't stand out from the crowd, then during this year's Christmas period, Fantasy Pictures will be in trouble.

"Dures, what movies are there in the late Christmas period?" Yi Feiyang asked.

When it comes to the later period, Dures's expression became relaxed: "There are fewer movies in the later period. The action film "Blackmailer" produced by Dimensions, the horror film "The Tell-Tale Heart" produced by Lionsgate Pictures, the new

The thriller "Spooky Town" produced by the online company, and there seem to be some other films from small companies, are basically all produced with a low budget, mainly horror films and thrillers..."

Although there are not many movies in the later period, Dimensions, Lionsgate and Fantasy followed the same route. They basically started with horror films. The works produced by these companies are also very good, especially Lionsgate.

Industry, for Yi Feiyang, although he is an ally and an opponent, Gusta's ability to strategize is definitely not weaker than his own. What's more, the reason why Lionsgate Pictures did not join this Christmas brawl is to avoid the edge and hide their strength.

Unlike me, I have already boasted that I would compete with the Wachowski brothers in Haikou, but now I am riding a tiger and it is difficult to get off.

Especially now, facing the extremely fierce offensive of "The Matrix 2", what should you do?

Should we learn to hide the sword in its scabbard from Lion's Gate, or should we draw the sword and reveal it?!

Let Yi Feiyang choose, of course the sword!

The sword shows the momentum, the courage, and the spirit of the filmmaker!

No matter what, this year’s Christmas period will be an unprecedented movie PK!

Who lives? Who dies?

It depends not only on luck, but also on strength!

Dures looked at Yi Feiyang and said in a deep voice: "Dear Yi, I have to remind you that this Christmas period, the competition is too fierce. If we at Dream Pictures want to get a piece of the big cake, we must plan carefully.

You have to, otherwise you will be swallowed up by the swarm of movie craze."

To be honest, although Yi Feiyang had expected the violent situation during the Christmas period, what Dures said was far beyond Yi Feiyang's expectation. The situation was severe, but it was also exciting enough.

Yi Feiyang smiled and said: "Don't worry, Fantasy Pictures will definitely want a piece of cake this time, and it will be a big cake. Dures, Rabbit Bill, and all of you, please listen to me. From now on,

Everyone is ready to fight! Our slogan is, we would rather die standing than live on our knees!”

I would rather die standing than live on my knees!

Dures, Rabbit Bill, and everyone in the conference room were excited!

Come and fight!

Damn it!!!
