The King of Huayu Science Fiction

Chapter 128 Excited Fans
In fact, this is equivalent to spoiling the movie setting in advance, which will weaken a certain movie-watching experience, but there is no way around it.

Chen Jingxing also wants the audience to enter the cinema without knowing anything about the film, so that the most perfect movie-watching experience will be produced.

However, he can't do it, or he can indeed attract a part of the audience, or his fans are willing to pay for it without knowing anything about the film.

But the battlefield of "Signal" is the National Day file.

This is one of the hottest periods of the year, and this period is not long, only seven days at full capacity, and the stamina is worse than that of the Spring Festival period.

In this short-lived battlefield, it is imperative to start with full firepower.

Therefore, Chen Jingxing didn't have the capital to be reserved at all, and he couldn't tolerate twitchy propaganda.

Not to mention that compared with other National Day movies, "Signal" is half a step late in the announcement and release.

So he has to show the selling point in the trailer, and let the audience be attracted by his selling point after watching the trailer, so that they are willing to pay to go to the cinema.

And the so-called communication across time and space is actually not a big spoiler.

The Chinese translation of "Inception" in the previous life was directly spoiled in the name. Chinese audiences knew that it was related to dreams when they saw the name, but they never saw that the viewing experience of Chinese audiences was worse than that of American audiences.

In this plane, there are not many works that play with the concept of time and space in Hollywood movies. Science fiction works such as "Groundhog Day", "Contact Through Time and Space" and "Black Hole Frequency" were not born, so I was influenced by these works later Works such as "Run Lola Run", "Terror Cruise", "Happy Death Day", "Edge of Tomorrow", "The Love of the World", "The Butterfly Effect", and "Mirage" did not appear.

The setting of "Signal" is actually very fresh in this plane.

The essence of the whole movie is not the connection across time and space, but the butterfly effect. Of course, this word is just a scientific term here.

In a setting that doesn't include parallel universes, changes made in the past can affect the future, and that's the real beauty of the genre.

Li Zihao can be regarded as a movie fan who reads a lot of films. Although the editing of the trailer is chaotic, he still easily captured the core settings.

The character played by Luo Chen actually got in touch with his father who lived in the past 17 years ago through something like a wireless walkie-talkie, and then the son who existed in the future time and space chased the murderer with his father who lived in the past time and space.

This setting is quite new to Li Zihao, he has never seen a work with similar elements before.

The trailer successfully whetted his appetite. After watching the trailer, Li Zihao quickly closed Huanshi.com and opened the barrage website C.

Station C is the website he visits the most besides the online disk. Not only does it have a lot of dramas, the most important thing is that it is free and has no advertisements, and there is no need to be a member. It can also communicate with other netizens in a work through barrage .

Sure enough, someone at station C has already uploaded the trailer of "Signal".

Li Zihao picked a video with a lot of barrage and clicked in.

At this moment, those who watched the "Signal" trailer for the first time were either Chen Jingxing's fans like Li Zihao, or Luo Chen's fans, and a small number of them accidentally saw the trailer was attracted by the setting and came to C Passers-by watching the barrage.

Only two hours after the video was uploaded, it already had tens of thousands of views and hundreds of barrages.

"What are you looking at? So fascinated, here comes the meal!"

The roommate came over and put the rice on Li Zihao's table, staring at his computer screen curiously.

"What kind of blockbuster? Is it an explosion and a chase, or is it made in China?"

Li Zihao unplugged the headphone cable from the computer, let the sound of the video play, and said with a grin: "It's a movie trailer, the name is "Signal", a new movie directed by Chen Jingxing."

Seeing that his roommate was still in a daze, Li Zihao hurriedly said, "It's the director who filmed "Fatal Identity", and he also filmed "The Night the Comet Came."

The roommate suddenly realized, after all, they have all seen "Fatal Identity".

Li Zihao loves to watch movies, especially popular blockbuster movies. After downloading them from the Internet, sometimes other roommates will gather around to watch them with him, or he will copy the movies on a USB flash drive and pass them on to others.

The other roommates also gathered around after hearing the words. No matter they like science fiction or suspense films, they all have a good evaluation of "Fatal Identity". It left a deep impression.

"This director is very talented, so he made a new movie so soon?"

"...What is this? Back in time?"

"What comprehension ability! It is obvious that the current self has contacted the father in the past."

"It's still related to time. This director is very good at working."

"When will it be released?"

"September 9th, National Day."

"Isn't there still more than a month? But I have to go home for National Day."

"If I don't go home for the National Day, I'm going to find a job or be a tutor"

"I just don't go home. When the movie is released, let's go see it together?"

"...You're not a girl. Isn't it embarrassing for two old men to go to the cinema to watch a movie together?"

……

After the first version of the trailer of "Signal" was released, it had an effect beyond expectations.

Huanshi.com and Penguin Video.com, two long-form video platforms, put the trailer on the homepage for recommendation.

This allowed the trailer of "Signal" to sweep the Internet in a short period of time, which also marked that Chen Jingxing's move to ride the Internet capital's free ride in the first place has paid off.

Although the development of the film and television industry in the two planes is slightly different, Chen Jingxing believes that the trend and power of Internet marketing are unstoppable.

In fact, "Fatal Identity" has already adopted a large-scale network marketing method, but the influence of winning the gold award at the Orlando Fantastic Film Festival made this film unexpectedly gain a lot of pages and traffic in the mainstream media, covering up a lot of network marketing. s method.

Chen Jingxing, who had already tasted the sweetness, naturally wanted to continue on this road firmly.

This is also the main reason why DreamWorks accepted the financing from Huanshi.com and Penguin Video Network, and brought these two video platform leaders to co-produce.
