Chapter 353: The fortress that was breached from within.
On March 5th, "The Secret of the Dragon" was released for 30 days, and the box office exceeded 3.8 billion. Winning the Spring Festival box office championship is already a sure thing, because there are no opponents around.
"Noah's Ark" has a total box office of 2.16 billion, and the attendance rate is already less than 35%. It will definitely reduce the number of films in the future. However, "Catastrophe 1942" has a final box office of 476 million and has already been cancelled. During the same period, both major competitors lost
In addition to its combat effectiveness, the next few films to be released are not big productions, so naturally they cannot pose any threat.
On the contrary, it provides the audience with a comparison: it is still enjoyable to watch "Xun Long Jue", so that thirty days after its release, the 3D show of "Xun Long Jue" still maintains an attendance rate of 63%. Of course, the attendance rate of the 2D show has already
It fell below 54%.
At this point, it has become inevitable for "The Secret of the Dragon" to reach the top. The final suspense is just what its final box office will be, and can it break the mainland box office record?
Forty days after its release, the box office of "The Secret of the Dragon" exceeded 4.4 billion, causing many media to exclaim that it seems that it is not so far away from the mainland box office record of 5.6 billion.
However, Han Fei knew that the potential of "Looking for the Dragon" had been exhausted. Judging from internal data, the attendance rate had dropped below 40%, and it would be discontinued if it lasted for ten days at most.
Sure enough, after 50 days of release, "The Secret of the Dragon" dropped with a box office of 4.67 billion. Compared with its investment of 430 million, it is obviously another hit with a very high profit ratio, and Han Fei has received two films in succession.
The extremely high box office has also made many people in the industry begin to recognize his status.
How should I put it? When "Charlotte Trouble" became a hit at the box office last year, many people in the industry thought that Han Fei was just tired of filming TV dramas and came to change his mood. After losing money, he would go back to filming TV dramas. Unexpectedly, "Xia Fei"
"The Sorrow of Lot" was a box office hit, but most people in the industry didn't approve of the film.
But "The Secret of the Dragon" is different. As a 3D movie, Han Fei and his team have succeeded in areas that many famous directors in the industry dare not try, and the degree of industrialization seen in it is amazing.
It's amazing. It can be seen from here that Han Fei's success is definitely not a fluke.
In fact, it has been almost thirty years since the introduction of Hollywood blockbusters. From the beginning, all Chinese filmmakers have been shouting: they must learn from Hollywood’s industrialized system. However, after so many years, the gap has become wider and wider, almost
Most Chinese film companies are busy promoting stars and making a lot of money. Have they ever really assembled an industrialized crew? Have they paid attention to special effects production?
Obviously there is no such thing. Originally, this gap could only be seen by insiders, and the audience was still immersed in the false prosperity of the movie market that exploded every year.
Until the emergence of 3D movies later, both insiders and audiences clearly felt what shock was. It was an uncontrollable fear, just like what Americans often say: Look, that's God.
That's right, when 3D movies first appeared, even many directors in the industry worshiped this technology from a God's perspective. This feeling is just like the silent film era to the sound film era, and then later.
The color film era was a subversive shock.
But even though it is shocking, are there many truly domestically produced 3D movies? There are not many. Even if there are, most of them are 3D movies converted using rough technology. To put it bluntly, the arrival of 3D movies has not made Chinese filmmakers work hard.
Instead, they found another way to make money. If a 2D movie is converted into 3D, a movie ticket can be sold for more than ten yuan or even twenty yuan. How profitable is this?
The entire Chinese film industry is like a pool of stagnant water. Everyone is obsessed with the joy of making money. Even if 3D movies later became notorious because of various shoddy 3D conversions, they still did not wake up. For them,
He said, it’s just missing one trick to make money, can’t we just change it to another one?
However, the emergence of "The Secret of the Dragon" has allowed all audiences to see what real domestic 3D movies look like. It turns out that we can also make such good 3D movies.
Strong fortresses are often easily broken from within, and Han Fei was a spy who sneaked into the fortress. He blew up the fortress that blocked the sky and sun in front of the audience, allowing them to see the hope of Chinese film industrialization.
This is also the reason why many people in the industry criticize "Xunlong Jue" on the Internet as having no connotation and only having gorgeous pictures. To put it bluntly, if you lose your job, who wouldn't complain?
"Because we were too pressed for time, we didn't hold last year's closing banquet and year-end banquet. Let's make up for it together during the celebration banquet, okay?" After Han Fei finished speaking, the entire office building began to shake.
Employees in other companies upstairs and downstairs were already used to this news, and they could only sigh helplessly: Look, this company is giving out benefits again.
The movie has been withdrawn, but there are still online copyrights that can be sold. This time Han Fei still took the money directly. The two platforms bought the license for "The Secret of the Dragon" for a total of 100 million.
At the celebration banquet, the media also came uninvited, and Han Fei did not make it difficult for them. He let them take photos if he wanted. Of course, the company's employees must take photos.
Actors don't have to pay so much attention to it. The higher the exposure, the better. Among them, Yang Kexin is the one who is asked the most.
"Ms. Yang, the outside world has been very curious about your salary for participating in "The Secret of the Dragon". Could you please disclose it?"
Yang Kexin glanced at Han Fei with a smile in her eyes, and the latter quickly pretended to go to toast and ran away. It's hard to say this kind of thing, but it's not nice to say it. You're a new movie queen, and you want her to break her bones? Are you still shameless?
Of course, Han Fei is not a stingy person. It was originally just to invest more budget in filming, but now it is a hit at the box office, so Han Fei naturally wants to express his gratitude.
However, Han Fei did not tell Yang Kexin directly, but transferred the money to Yang Kexin's investment account, so Sister Ru was shocked when she saw the large amount of money transferred in, and quickly reported it to Yang Kexin. As a result, she found out that it was from Han Fei.
The call came from Fei's personal account, so we understood what was going on.
After the lucky draw at the celebration banquet, Han Fei still announced that the crew of "Searching for the Dragon" would take a month's paid leave, which could be regarded as compensation for everyone who stuck to their posts during the Chinese New Year.
Originally, Han Fei planned to take a period of leave for himself, but before he could finish explaining the company's affairs, he received a call.
The call was from Tao Yuehua. Han Fei originally thought it was just a customary congratulation, but unexpectedly, Tao Yuehua posed a problem for him.
"Teacher Tao, shouldn't you go to the director for this matter? You'd better go to Jiang Qinghou. No, I really can't..."
But no matter what he said, Tao Yuehua recognized him, and Han Fei had no choice but to agree.
