This director is very reliable

Chapter 679 Arranging Films (33)

Shen Changlin is just confident, not conceited...

The quality of "Kung Fu Panda" lies there.

Yes, it's popcorn and full of Western individual heroism, but its core is martial arts.

And it's really beautiful--visual effects have always been the golden signboard of DreamWorks. The "Kung Fu Panda" series is definitely a visual feast, and the grasp of Chinese scene elements is also very good. Just a few stills are enough to impress people!

Of course, the reason why Shen Changlin praised him so much was mainly to prepare for the future.

DreamWorks can achieve such a natural fusion, why can't Disney's "Mulan" do it?

Although it is not perfect, at least the sincerity is visible to the naked eye!
"Mulan" is arrogant and perfunctory, not to mention the plot, just the excessive tone, color abuse, and a strong visual flavor, this movie is quite speechless!
Really he wondered where the cost of up to [-] million US dollars was spent.

Special effects?

What is the difference between the special effects of Phoenix Wings and the domestic Wumao special effects?
These are the most basic, the most necessary, and the things that Hollywood production teams are best at, and the easiest things to do, and then, the rendering is so rough...

It is also in line with Liu Qianqian's vision of film selection - all five points!
Let me add a sentence: Teacher Six must be very envious of Sissi, the Sino-US co-production that she has been thinking about has never started, but Sissy has made several films...

——International Superstar "Tactical Backward".

In fact, after you have watched the American version of Journey to the West (starring Bai Ling), you will think that "Mulan" is not bad, at least the heroine is not arranged to show her breasts...

What's even more frightening is that the level of "Journey to the West" is the normal level of the old beauty!

No matter how arrogant "Mulan" is, at least it really found a Chinese actor as the leading role.

By comparison, we can see how precious "Kung Fu Panda" is...

……

Shen Changlin's strong recommendation is useless.

After all, during the Spring Festival travel season, everyone is busy going home for the New Year, who has time to watch any movies?
The box office on weekdays is only 50 million, a drop of 50%...

By February 2th, the single-day box office was only 6 million—this is the next weekend!

Shen Changlin returned to BJ, went home for the Spring Festival, and then started the road show...

In the original time and space, after "The Mermaid" was released, Zhou Xingxing traveled to more than [-] cities, but Shen Changlin had to travel to [-]?

In the company, Lao Guo told Shen Changlin: "The theater gave up "Kung Fu Panda 3"...at least during the Spring Festival period!"

"... How many rows did you give us?"

"Above 25%, this is our minimum requirement..."

"How many games is 25%?"

"At least [-] games per day for the first three days!"

Shen Changlin calculated, 65 games, with the attendance rate of the Spring Festival stalls, about [-]%...

It may not break [-] million on the first day!
Shaking his head, he said, "Can you fight for a little more?"

Guo Songjiang also shook his head: "3 shows per day is almost the limit... "The Wind and Cloud of Macau [-]" and "Three Dozens of Bone Demons" each have at least [-] shows..."

That's right, no matter "Macao Wind and Cloud 3" or "Journey to the West: Three Fights against the Bones", each has more than a dozen investors behind it, and the relationship with major theaters is also good.

"Detective Chinatown" won [-] games on the first day, which is already a strong release department...

Shen Changlin sighed, and then asked: "...What about "The Mermaid"?"

"'The Mermaid' has [-] shows..."

"Eighty thousand games?"

A gap of [-] games!
On the premise that the attendance rate is almost 65%, the gap of 50 games means a gap of nearly [-] million!
Three days is 1.5 million...

so fucked up...

Shen Changlin frowned: "Is it possible to cut [-] shows from it for me? The number of shows is different, so I can't compete!"

The Spring Festival schedule is different from the general schedule, and it is very important to schedule films in theaters!
Especially in recent years, the efficiency of the word-of-mouth feedback market is still very low, unless it is a peerless bad movie-"Mermaid" is definitely not a bad movie. It will take three days, and the cinema will take at least five days...

According to Shen Changlin's estimation, it should be after the eighth day of the Lunar New Year that he overtakes "The Mermaid".

In other words, in the first seven days, the filming will definitely be left behind, but you can't leave too much, otherwise, it will be too difficult to catch up later!
Guo Songjiang hesitated, and then proposed: "We discussed three ways."

Shen Changlin was very interested: "Tell me."

"It will be released early on New Year's Eve..."

Shen Changlin rolled his eyes: "Are you sick? Do you not let the theater staff rest on New Year's Eve? They are also human beings, only New Year's Eve every year!"

Lao Guo was not angry either, and continued: "The second is to pay the major cinemas arranging fees, and they will give preferential treatment when arranging films; there is another kind..."

Before the end of listening, Shen Changlin has already categorically rejected: "Impossible, it was originally the downstream projection end, why should they let us be manipulated!"

Guo Songjiang sighed...

Shen Changlin is good at everything, but a little naive...

How can there be so many absolute things in business?

But he didn't say it directly, but said the third one: "The other thing is that we buy the pre-sale directly!"

Shen Changlin was stunned for a moment, then asked back: "...through the cat's eye?"

"right…"

"Buy it...don't be pulled down too much by "Mermaid", the gap is stable at around 1000 million!"

Lao Guo nodded, and continued: "Actually, Maoyan can refund tickets..."

"Don't," Shen Changlin hurriedly stopped him from continuing, "It's easy to be reported. The movie will be released soon, so don't make a scandal!"

Of course he knows that Maoyan can refund tickets.

Yuan Shikong, "Later Us" has been operated, and Maoyan released it. First, it booked a lot of tickets on its own platform, and then desperately published drafts, bought hot searches and other means to make this film popular. Wait until the public opinion is almost ready. Secretly refunded the ticket, anyway, it is my own platform, no loss.

Then it was reported by the theater!

Don’t say that Maoyan is innocent, the 19 yuan and 9 discount tickets are never refundable, even if you want to refund, it is extremely cumbersome, 1300 million tickets, except Maoyan himself, who can complete such a coquettish operation in such a short period of time ?
"Let's take the third option... Put pressure on the theaters through pre-sales, tell Zheng Zhihao, don't think about refunding tickets, I can't afford to lose this person!"

"it is good…"

……

After talking about "Detective Chinatown", Shen Changlin was about to leave, Guo Songjiang followed, and by the way, he said something: "Didn't Gao Yushu post on Weibo to boycott bad movies when "Villain Angel" was released..."

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"His "Happy New Year" was released, and the reputation was extremely bad."

Shen Changlin was delighted: "I always felt that Gao Yushu's desire to prove the high standard of "The Wind" was due to Chen Guofu!"

"...I heard it was adapted from "Shou Sui"..."

"What the hell...how did you even mention this?"

Guo Songjiang smiled wryly: "He called me and complained..."

"What is there to complain about? Didn't make any money?"

In essence, "Happy New Year" is a variety show movie, which is used to show people.

It's even worse than a variety show movie, at least the variety show movie tells the audience openly that we have no plot...

"Happy New Year" has no plot and has not told the audience.

"Well, I heard it was a bad loss..."

"Should!"
