Chapter 456 Can't Be Called a Movie

The time has entered July, and "Harry Potter", which was released for a month, is gradually being drawn around the world.

China's box office is not as good as "Guoshu Boy", the box office is only a little over one billion, which is almost half of it, which can be said to be a huge difference.

However, the film's foreign box office is extremely amazing.

The North American box office broke 13 million US dollars, and the global box office broke [-] billion US dollars, becoming the highest box office record for a "child star movie" without any suspense.

In front of its global box office, "Guoshu Boy" is obviously not enough.

Of course, the investment costs of the two films are also very different.In terms of profit margin, "Guoshu Boy" is much higher.

The popularity of "Harry Potter" has pushed the popularity of child stars to a new level.

It's a pity that Mu Chen acted first and won most of the child star market in the world with two films.Only left some soup for others.

Nowadays, when it comes to child stars, in Asia and other places, the first thing that comes to mind is naturally the cool little bald head and the lewd little fat man in "Kingdom Boy".

In Europe, America and other places, the first thing people think of is the cute little glasses in "Harry Potter".

As for the other child stars, they can only be dimmed under the light of the three of them.

The disparity in the box office of the two films at home and abroad is undoubtedly related to cultural differences.

However, in any case, both films are extremely successful.

In July, "Mage" will be released soon, and the publicity will naturally enter a white-hot stage.

Chenxi Film and Television has always been willing to spend money on publicity and distribution.

The smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, that doesn't exist in the film and television industry.

Propaganda is an essential part.Even if your film is a classic, it is still needed.

Build momentum!
Mu Chen also participated in the script of "Mage", so naturally he was also named as the screenwriter.

Moreover, he is also the producer of this film.

In other words, for all the movies in this movie universe, Mu Chen has been suspended as the producer.

He has never been to the set of many films, but every film definitely has his shadow.

He participated in all those films.

A film, shooting is just one part of it.

Pre-production and post-production are also extremely important.

In the post-production, Mu Chen may not follow up much, but in the pre-production and film discussion, Mu Chen participated a lot.

Being both a screenwriter and a producer, it is natural to have a platform for film promotion.

"Director Mu, do you think Director Yu's "Mage" will be the biggest winner this summer, or your "Guardians of the Galaxy"?"

At a publicity conference attended by Mu Chen, a reporter asked about Mu Chen.

"Director Mu, don't answer what you think is useless to perfuse us!"

Before Mu Chen could speak, another reporter spoke.

As soon as he said that, countless people in the audience quickly echoed.It had to be said that these reporters knew Mu Chen very well.

"It's hard to say which movie will be the biggest winner." Mu Chen smiled and said, "However, no matter which movie is the biggest winner, I must be the biggest winner."

"Why? Who made both films invested and produced by Chenxi Film and Television?" Mu Chen continued, "No matter which film is the winner, I must be the one who makes the most money."

There seems to be nothing wrong with this statement.

"Director Mu, both films are part of your film universe, so what do the two films have in common and what are the differences?"

The reporter asked.

Mu Chen's appearance at the press conference naturally attracted more reporters' attention than the director Yu Yun and the lead actor Su Xiaowan.

"What do they have in common? Maybe they are all superhero movies. The story takes place in a movie universe!" Mu Chen thought for a while and said, "The two movies are actually not related at all. One takes place on Earth, and the other But it happened in the universe. And the styles of the two films are different. "Mage" you can think of him as a fantasy film. "Guardians of the Galaxy" is a science fiction film."

When promoting "Mage", it also promoted "Guardians of the Galaxy" by the way!
Both "Mage" and "Guardians of the Galaxy" were released simultaneously around the world, so the promotion of the film is naturally running around the world.

However, it is mainly China and North America.

Who makes North America and China the two largest film markets in the world?
Compared with domestic and North American publicity, Mu Chen participated in more.

Whether it's Yu Yun or Su Xiaowan, they all have a lot of popularity abroad.However, it was much worse than Mu Chen.

The promotion of this film abroad is still mainly focused on Mu Chen.

Friday, July [-]th.

"The Mage" was released worldwide, and Wang Hao reserved the show to support it, but it seemed a little deserted.

Mu Chen and Su Xiaowan are still doing publicity abroad.

Zhao Jin and Jiang Qin happened to be recording a program for the promotion of "Guardians of the Galaxy", so they were absent.

Li Ruoxi and Mu Ze were also busy, and it was difficult to get away.

"If you don't come, I won't be interested in booking a venue!" Wang Hao looked at Marin, shaking his head and smiling bitterly.

He has booked countless times, and this time is the most "deserted".

"I'm free!" Marin said with a curled lip.

"Lao Mu's "Guardians of the Galaxy" is released, and you are probably the only one left." Wang Hao said.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to come either." Marin said, "If nothing else happens, then I'm afraid I'll have to promote "Terracotta Warriors and Horses"."

"No way?" Wang Hao said in surprise when he heard that, "Your film is also a big investment, don't you want to find a good time?"

Film promotion usually starts a month in advance.Therefore, Wang Hao subconsciously thought that Marin's film was scheduled for September.

In September, the schedule was really bad.

The summer vacation is over, students start school, and the largest group of movie fans is busy.

""White Snake" will be released on August 17th." Marin said, "Whether it will be released at the same time or not, we have to wait for "Terracotta Warriors" to be released. Lao Mu and the others will decide after watching it."

"If it was released at the same time, wouldn't Chenxi Films release three blockbuster films this summer?" Wang Hao shook his head and said, "It's really a big deal! This is very in line with Lao Mu's temper."

Wang Hao can naturally guess why "White Snake" was released on August 17th.

As for Chenxi Film and Television still taking blockbuster movies, Wang Hao is not surprised.

He naturally understood Mu Chen's temper.

"Let's sit and chat, the movie is about to start." Huo Ting said with a smile.

Not long after, the film begins.

The plot of "Mage" follows "War God", telling the story of Su Xiaowan and Fan Juanqiong going to Tianshan to learn magic after the Kunlun Mountain War.

At the beginning of the film, it is the beautiful scenery of Tianshan Mountain and the buildings with oriental style.

That's the mage's residence.

Fan Juanqiong is not the only mage.

However, there are not many beautiful scenes in this film.

Too much, but it is easy to cause aesthetic fatigue of movie fans. The beauty of "War God" is much less than that of "Sword Fairy".

Of course, not at all.

After the movie "Sword Immortal" was released, the number of foreigners traveling to Bashu increased dramatically.

Given the opportunity to publicize the beauty of the country, Mu Chen would naturally not let it go.

Of course, he will also treat me better.

The style of the film is the same as before, with a compact plot and constant climaxes.

Because Su Xiaowan wore the soul gem since she was a child, her soul power is strong, so learning spells is more effective with less effort.

The scene of learning spells is naturally indispensable.

These shots include explanations for mages and introductions to spells.

Of course, learning spells is naturally mixed with some small humor, and the protagonist's "forceful" learning speed shocks everyone.

This is somewhat similar to "Sword Immortal", but the learning is different, and the effect is naturally different.

During the study period, other shots are naturally interspersed.

Clash of Villains and Special Administration Bureau!
The routines are in the same line as "Sword Immortal" and "War God", but they are completely different.

In fact, many commercial blockbusters in Hollywood are all a routine.

However, the contradictions between "Mage" and "Sword Fairy" and "War God" are not the same.

The conflict in "Sword Fairy" is that there is a god who wants to descend to the earth and control the world.

The contradiction in "War God" breaks out, which means that the hell devil wants to break out of the seal and come to the world.

The contradictions and conflicts in "The Master" have a taste of "everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty".

The evil mage discovered Su Xiaowan's soul gem and naturally wanted to take it.

And Su Xiaowan, a genius who appeared in the camp of righteous mages, they naturally also wanted to kill him.

After several battles, the soul gem was finally taken away, and the skill of the evil mage increased greatly, trying to destroy the mages of the Tianshan lineage.

Tianshan asked the Special Administration Bureau for help, and in the end it was naturally a big battle.

In the end, evil prevails over good!
Of course, Su Xiaowan, as the protagonist, naturally played an extremely crucial role in the battle, and it can be said that she showed great power.

This is a very enjoyable popcorn movie.

Visual effects are naturally one of the highlights.

This kind of blockbuster, the market response has always been good.

The domestic box office broke [-] million on the first day, and won the single-day box office champion without any suspense.

The first-day box office in North America also broke through 5000 million US dollars. Although it is not as good as "Sword Fairy" and "War God", it also won the single-day box office champion.

After all, the popularity of the character "Mage" is far less than that of "Sword Fairy" and "War God", which appeared in "The Avengers".

Moreover, although Su Xiaowan has a lot of international fame with the "Resident Evil" series and the heroine of "War God", it is much worse than Li Ruoxi and Mu Ze.

The box office appeal of directors and actors is far inferior. The single-day box office in North America can exceed 5000 million, and it is estimated that it is part of the "movie universe".

The word-of-mouth of the film is also extremely good, especially among fans.

This film brought them different feelings from "Sword Fairy" and "War God", especially the "magic" in it, which made fans all over the world feel the imagination of Chinese people.

The action design is undoubtedly a highlight of this film.

The film was well-received by fans, but not everyone liked it.

Many film critics still scoff at such films.

It just didn't cause much reaction.

And just when "Mage" was selling at the global box office, a big Hollywood director's evaluation of the movie universe created by Mu Chen swept the world in an instant.

"Those movies can't be called movies, it's more like a theme park product!"

The great director didn't mean that "Mage" couldn't be called a movie, but that none of the movies related to the movie universe created by Mu Chen could be called a movie.

As soon as this remark came out, it detonated the world.
