"Well, let's buy the copyrights of some good animation works first and keep them for adaptation."
"How about taking a closer look at the box office results of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" before making a decision?"
Someone gave a relatively neutral opinion.
"I think it's okay." People who are opposed to entering the animation industry agree.
"It's already April, and there are still three months before the movie is released. It's not that long. We can wait and see whether the popularity is temporary or whether it can last."
His words received approval from some people.
After all, this matter is currently at its hottest, and it may only be a temporary thing. If you get on the bus rashly, something may go wrong.
First of all, the reason why this work can arouse popularity is that this animation is indeed very good, even the best animation in China at present. Both the special effects and the plot have been greatly changed, which aroused the curiosity of netizens.
Another important reason is that this work is the work of Chen Mubai.
Not to mention animation, even film and television works will receive great attention and hot discussion. This is Chen Mubai's own popularity, and this is his influence!
Of course, domestic animation has not always been very popular, and the industry has not received much attention, so this time is an opportunity to explode the popularity.
Chen Mubai's entry has attracted more people's attention. In addition, people who like animation in China have long hoped that Chinese comics can develop. The combination of the two makes this event particularly popular.
"Actually, I still think it's best to join at this time. It's early and the animation production cycle is a little longer. It's best to complete it before the Spring Festival and release it by then. The schedule is not bad and the box office will definitely not be bad. If it's delayed by three
If this schedule is forced to be set, the production time will be shortened and the quality of the animation will be difficult to guarantee."
Another person sighed: "Judging from the current situation, the box office of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" will not be less than 1 billion. The popularity is too high. Too many people who hope for the development of Chinese comics will support him? "
In addition, the quality is acceptable? It is also the first anime to arouse the popularity of the whole people. Do you still need to see this box office result?"
"this......"
Everyone's views have been shaken again? What he said makes sense? Judging from the popularity on the Internet and the discussions among netizens in major media news, the box office of this anime will indeed not be low.
Even if the production cost is 100 to 200 million? As long as the box office is 1 billion, you can still make a lot of money.
In other words? Chen Mubai’s big animation movie is basically a must-make money. It just depends on how much money he can make.
Everyone is envious of his ability to attract money. The investment in each of his movies is not large, but the returns are huge. Is it because of this? Therefore, Chen Mubai's value in the eyes of outsiders is very high.
There are many film and television companies offering sky-high prices? They hope that Chen Mubai can help them shoot a movie and give them a commission from the box office of the movie, but Chen Mubai refused.
It seems like the price is high, but what they value is Chen Mubai's personal influence.
They think that as long as Chen Mubai makes one movie, the box office will not be bad no matter what? Even if the quality of the movie is rubbish, he can still make a lot of money.
After all, although the salary for inviting him to shoot a movie is the highest among directors, it is also a fixed salary, even if there is a box office share? Only the higher the box office, the more the share will be.
In comparison, the box office that Chen Mubai may bring to the movie is huge, and it is completely worth the risk. The risks are much smaller than the benefits.
Under this situation, major companies have different choices. Some companies have already started producing animations, while others choose to wait and see.
Among the seven major levels, most choose to wait and see before making a decision.
It’s not necessarily about the box office of “Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World”, but about whether the development of the animation industry has a future and whether it can bring them enough benefits.
The box office of this animation movie can be said to be a microcosm of the animation industry to a certain extent, and it is a kind of national attitude and demand for Chinese comics.
If Big Seven were to produce animation, the quality would definitely be too low, which would be a disgrace to the company's reputation. Even if they couldn't invest as much as Chen Mubai, they would still be able to produce at least half of it, which wouldn't be too bad.
Therefore, the specifics of this industry and whether it is worth investing in, its prospects are very important.
No one wants to waste a lot of money
...
While everyone is paying attention to this big anime movie, Mubai Entertainment has another piece of news that shocked netizens and shocked the entertainment industry at the same time!
Chen Mubai’s new movie conference has begun!
This new film is naturally the tribute film requested above. He has 6 months to produce it. Although the time is a bit tight, relative to his speed, it should be completed.
Everyone believes this.
"Who's going to be in this movie?"
"I wonder if Ma Jun will be here, I like him the most."
"I think Li Qiang is definitely there. His acting skills are so good. I hope he can star."
"Most of the talented people should be able to star in the show, and there is no hope for popular stars."
"I just hope that the celebrity I like is here~"
"Tomorrow is the movie press conference, and all the stars who will appear will know about it."
Netizens paid attention to the movie, while celebrities in the industry were all shocked.
Because no one received Chen Mubai’s invitation!
In other words, Chen Mubai did not choose any actors other than Mubai Entertainment to star in this movie!
It cannot be said that there is no one, there is only one person, and that is Tao Yaoyao.
Tao Yaoyao is indeed not an artist of Mubai Entertainment, but she is Chen Mubai's girlfriend, so it is normal for her to appear in it.
All the celebrities in the circle are still waiting for Chen Mubai's invitation. Although they have not received invitations in the past few days, they have not heard from others that they have accepted the invitation.
Everyone thought that Chen Mubai was busy working on "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" these days. After all, this animated movie is so popular. If Chen Mubai was worried about this matter, it would be normal for him to be late in managing the new movie for a few days.
Although the tribute film is important, the animated movie is the work that they have invested huge sums of money into, and they should be more concerned about it.
After all, the box office of the gift film is not high, but the devil boy is different. It is a huge investment. If this movie is not done well, the loss will be huge.
Originally, everyone thought that after Chen Mubai dealt with the matter of the devil boy coming to the world, he would officially deal with the matter of the gift film and at the same time send out invitations to the actors.
Who knew that it would directly become a new film launch conference?
Many celebrities began to ask each other about the situation, and so did the companies.
"what's the situation?"
"Has anyone in your company accepted Chen Mubai's invitation?"
"None of them? Neither did we..."
"What's going on with Chen Mubai? Isn't he looking for a star to star?"
"No, they have to digest such an important movie internally?"
"This is a main theme movie, and the box office is generally not high. Without the support of stars, how many box office will it have?"
Stars and companies in the industry are beginning to be confused.
Later, they confirmed the news that Chen Mubai did not send invitations to any company or any star.
Chen Mubai officially decided not to invite any stars to star in this tribute movie!
In everyone's eyes, he gave up the movie's box office!
Many stars were disappointed. They began to curse Chen Mubai, hoping that the movie would crash at the box office.
They just wanted to use this movie to show their faces, let fans and the public see them starring in it, and also want to show it to the people above and boost their favorability. However, after waiting for so long, all their expectations were in vain.
However, many people are happy.
Those are people who are not good at acting, and those popular celebrities.
They knew that they were unlikely to be selected by Chen Mubai, so they had little hope of applying. Now that they saw that everyone had failed, they felt secretly happy.
People are like this, they don’t want to see others live better than themselves.
If everyone had the same experience, their psychology would be much more balanced.
None of them can be selected, and naturally they don't want to see anyone else selected. This result is very good for them.
...
Starway Entertainment.
If a star with poor traffic and acting skills just thinks that he has a high probability of not being selected, then Starway’s stars never thought that they would be selected.
Now, in this situation, they are the happiest.
After all, if they can come, they will not have any hope and will not be disappointed.
At the beginning, everyone looked at them with ridicule and gloating, but now those people have also ended up like this, and there will be reincarnation in the sky.
"Chen Mubai didn't invite anyone to star in the tribute film. What's the purpose?" Some celebrities discussed privately.
"Does he have some ulterior motive, or is he confident that he can get good box office results without them?"
Some people curled their lips and replied: "Not necessarily, he is a bit too mythical. Although he is indeed very powerful, the box office of gift films has never been high, and they all rely on the appeal of the star himself."
"Previous movies had dozens of stars, including many superstars. Chen Mubai will not use one person this time. Even if he has good appeal, he can't compete with so many people, right?"
"I think he may be simply inflated and thinks he is very popular now, so he doesn't invite other celebrities."
Another person hesitated and said: "I don't think it's that simple."
"Then do you think the box office of the gift film will be high?" The man hummed: "What kind of movie is the main theme movie? You all know that it is not a blockbuster movie at all. Can Chen Mubai turn this movie into a commercial movie?
?”
Another person said calmly: "Yes, if the type of this kind of movie cannot be changed, the box office of the movie is destined to not be high,"
"That's fine. Chen Mubai is so arrogant. I would like to see his final failure. When the movie box office comes out, that's when he will be laughed at."
"Although the box office of the movie is not important, if it is too low, it may even be the worst box office of a gift film in history, and it will also be a huge blow to Chen Mubai's reputation."
"Yes, I also want to watch him fail."
Several celebrities sneered privately and talked about Chen Mubai's handling of this matter.
Although they have nothing to do with Chen Mubai, the company has a grudge against Chen Mubai. Even they are in a lot of trouble now because of Chen Mubai. They naturally hope that Chen Mubai will fail.
Similarly, the top management of Starway Entertainment also initiated a discussion on this matter, and everyone was waiting to see Chen Mubai's joke.
...
At first, none of the celebrities received invitations. Everyone thought they were just not invited and felt a little disappointed.
As a result, I learned through inquiring that Chen Mubai did not invite anyone, and then the incident broke out.
In the celebrity community, everyone is blaming Chen Mubai, thinking that he is a little crazy, that he has gone too far and only thinks about his own company and does not care about others.
Soon, Chen Mubai's approach was reported by the media, and everyone knew that Chen Mubai did not invite any celebrities for his gift film!
Netizens initially focused on the new movie press conference, and everyone was still actively discussing which stars would star in the movie and whether they had any idols of their own.
As a result, this news suddenly broke, and they were all shocked!
