Huayu, my wife, I support myself

Chapter 388 388.No.5 【Subscription】

I went to where Yu Kui was.

After returning, Lu Chen stopped paying attention to "Hachiko the Dog", but continued to devote his energy to the preparation of "Jurassic Park".

Chen Hui is still busy with "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms",

Therefore, many things have to be decided by Lu Chen himself.

And this moment.

Donkey Kong finally ushered in the release.

The total box office also broke through the small three-digit target,
A total box office of 104 billion.

It just happened to be ranked fifth at the box office in film history.

No.4 is "The Avengers", the first gathering of heroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Released in 2012, it is the sixth film of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. After the release of "The Avengers", it has gained a strong box office in North America and the world.

This movie can be described as a gathering of big names,
It was directed by Joss, and Robert Jr., Chris, Chris, Scarlett and many other stars co-starred, coupled with cool special effects and the first appearance of various superheroes on the big screen, making it very popular and box office. gratifying.

It has achieved an astonishing box office in North America. Besides North America, it is also very popular all over the world. In 32 countries and regions outside North America, it has earned a box office of more than 500 million US dollars, of which it has won a box office of 8600 million US dollars in mainland China.

No.3 is "Star Wars, The Force Awakens".

The restart of "Star Wars" IP.

The IP of "Star Wars" is as popular in Hollywood as "Journey to the West" in China.

Therefore, the domestic box office performance of this movie is not as good as expected.

The sci-fi war film released last year is the seventh film in the "Star Wars" series. After its release, it has achieved very good box office results around the world.

of course.

It's also popular outside of Hollywood.

For example, the United Kingdom set a four-day box office record ($4890 million box office), and Germany, Australia, Russia and other countries set the highest three-day box office in history.

However, the film's domestic box office revenue is very average, and it only got a box office of 8.25 million yuan.

It is far inferior to the domestic box office results of movies such as The Avengers.

As for No.2, it is "Titanic".

The love and disaster movie released in 1997 was re-released in 2012D in 3.

After the release of "Titanic", it gained high reputation and high box office all over the world.

Its box office once ranked first in history,

It was broken by "Avatar" more than ten years later.

It is worth mentioning that,
Cameron, the director of "Avatar", is also the director of "Titanic".

After its release, it set many unprecedented records. For example, it set an unprecedented record in the history of Ugly Chinese movies for 15 consecutive weeks at the weekend box office.

In short, it is really amazing that "Titanic" can get a box office of 1997 billion US dollars when it was released in 18.5.

In addition to the amazing box office, it was also highly recognized by the industry. It received 14 Oscar nominations that year, and finally won 11 of them.

There is no doubt that "Titanic" will be one of the eternal classics in the history of film.

No.1 is Kashen's masterpiece "Avatar".

This film has many pioneering roles for the film industry.

Science fiction film released in 2009.

After the film was released, it caused a sensation all over the world and created a box office miracle.

It has performed well at the box office in many countries and regions around the world, with a box office of more than 9 million US dollars in 1 countries.

Its domestic box office gross exceeded $2.6 million,
The box office of France and Japan exceeded 1.7 million U.S. dollars, and the box office of Germany exceeded 1.6 million U.S. dollars.

The reason why it can create such an astonishing box office is not only that the director is Cameron, who is very popular at the box office, but also because this movie has opened up the era of real 3D movies.
Due to the excellent visual effects, audiences all over the world want to experience the shock of 3D movies, so the number of viewers is so high.

It is because starting from this movie, 3D movies have gradually become popular in various movie theaters around the world.

Thus creating a box office myth.

Daikin just happened to be ranked No.5.

This ranking seems to be quite high, but it is not.

Lu Chen knew that this ranking would not last long. "The Avengers", "Spider-Man: No Return", and "The Lion King" will be released soon.

After these movies are released.

There is basically no difficulty in surpassing Donkey Kong at the box office.

but,

These are things that come later, at least for now, Lu Chen's "King Kong" has achieved such dazzling results.

Enough to attract the attention of countless people.

Many of her fans are already discussing whether his world ranking will mention one or two places.

Regardless of one ranking or two rankings, relying on the record created by "King Kong" is enough to suppress all opposing voices.

For Lu Chen,

These are all good things.

And to Lu Chen's surprise, it seems that as long as it involves monster movies, it always goes smoothly.

Even when his next work "Jurassic Park" was sent to the Screenwriters Union for review, they gave an approved opinion within minutes.

It is somewhat similar to the previous animated films.

That's the benefit of being famous.

This is not only the effect of the golden body that Lu Chen made before, but also the higher-ups saw her strength through "King Kong".

He really has the potential to lead domestic films to the world.

Therefore,
The higher authorities are willing to give them more preferential treatment.

This is the benefit of the country's vigorous development of entertainment.

After all now.

Jiaxing Media's film industry can be regarded as winning glory for the country.

Even if it is abroad, it is unmatched.

Regarding this aspect, even if the Big Five wanted to stop the development of Jiaxing Media, they would be helpless.

The above will definitely not allow it.

Unless you have the strength to replace Lu Chen, don't even think about it.

And Lu Chen was confident enough.

When "Jurassic Park" is released in the future, even if 1 of the Big Five are not happy.

I also didn't dare to do anything about the filming of this movie.

Otherwise, there would be no need for Jiaxing Media to deal with them.

Many people think that Donkey Kong only ranks fifth.

That's why these entertainment companies do things on purpose.

Very simple.

The foreign box office is on par with the domestic box office.

At first glance, there is no problem.

But after watching this box office, many people will feel that this box office seems a bit abnormal, and the domestic box office should be higher than the foreign box office.

After all, this is the headquarters of Jiaxing Media.

The box office of his base camp is actually not as good as the box office of other places outside.

Do it yourself?

Many people will be so skeptical no matter whether they do it or not.

Since doubts arose,
Then the question comes, who moves the hand?
There is no doubt that the first object of suspicion must be the Big Five.

This wave of the Big Five is a bit wronged.

But there is no way, they can only carry this pot on their backs.

No one expected that "King Kong" would detonate the foreign box office.

In the eyes of many professionals.

What a pity.

If they are prepared, they have no control over the box office on other sites.

The box office on my own domestic territory is piling up a few small targets.

Absolutely hassle-free and stress-free.

How can the ranking of "King Kong" be moved forward by one position.

Don't look at just a location.

The difference between No.5 and No.4 is quite big.

Lu Chen didn't really care.

But other people care, after all, it is the first time to enter the top ten in movie history.

Maybe this one is the only one, the higher the ranking, the better.

"Wolf Warrior 2" only ranked in the 70th place, and it was blown like that.

Not to mention Lu Chen's "King Kong".

And at this moment,
on video sites,
"King Kong", which has become popular all over the world, is finally launched, and the result is not surprising. As soon as "King Kong" was launched, it became the movie with the highest click-through rate on video websites.

After seeing this movie, there are not a few people who beat their chests.

"Damn it, why don't I go to the cinema to watch it!"

"When the online praise of "King Kong" was the worst, I insisted that it was a good marketing. How could domestic films have works that surpassed the movies of the Marvel universe. Now, I really regret it and really want to go to the cinema to see it. , instead of sitting in front of a computer."

"I owe Director Lu a movie ticket,"

"Wow, it's really exciting and interesting."

"Donkey Kong is so handsome. I couldn't go to the cinema to support it because of my own reasons. When Director Lu's second monster movie comes out, I will definitely go to the cinema to support it."

"Opened the door to a new world of Monster Universe,"

"Actually, the plot of "King Kong" may not be so exciting, it can only be said to be very innovative, but the success of this movie lies in its interpretation of a new story in a brand new way."

……

It can be seen that "Jurassic Park" will be released in the future.

It will definitely explode violently.

Because "King Kong" will use the stalls during the production of Jiaxing Media's new movie to let many audiences see "King Kong".

If you like this type of movie, you need to cultivate the habit of watching movies.

This is the only way for the development of the film.

Just like bad movies are the only way for the development of domestic movies.

It is a fact that capital leverages the market and capital seeks profit, so bad movies are rampant.

But it is impossible to limit the investment direction of capital, let alone allow capital to pursue profits.

The only way is to make bad movies lose money and lose money, and the capital will naturally go empty. This is the only way to cure the root cause.

Now, both the number of domestically produced films and the existing film scheduling model make it easier for bad films to make money.

Let’s start with the layout first,
As long as it is a big-budget movie with a celebrity plastic surgery, the movie schedule of existing theaters is very large, no matter whether it is a bad movie or not, and a movie like "Roadside Picnic" has a relatively small lineup and relies on word-of-mouth. The number of films scheduled is appalling.

Things that can't be done.

The main reason is that the number of movies is too small.

The small number means that those big-produced bad movies cannot be replaced by new sources in a short period of time, and the continuous release means that even if the attendance rate of each show is limited, many bad movies can rely on high rankings and stretch the front line Get high profits.

This is also the reason why Lu Chen wants to make "Director Please Take Your Place" and "Rising Star Project".

There are too few directors.

Secondly, the star effect is remarkable.

For most people who go to the cinema to kill time, the best way to choose a movie is to glance at the cast list.

Finally, the time span of word-of-mouth fermentation is relatively long.

Due to the combination of the latter two reasons,
Bad movies with a strong star lineup can get an explosive high attendance rate in the early stage, earning the first pot of gold, and the small number of movies gives enough time for bad movies, allowing the long-tail effect to take effect thoroughly.

For movies supported by word-of-mouth, the pattern is just the opposite. In the early stage, due to the lack of reputation, the attendance rate is relatively low, but after the word-of-mouth rises later, the accumulated power is stillborn before it can be released.

Therefore, for theaters that need to make money, they should not line up bad domestic films with bright stars at this time.

How should I arrange the films?
And when the producers and theaters have had enough of the sweetness, this model is out of control.

Then there is the number of films mentioned above, which is a fundamental issue.

The domestic film market is booming.

It looks like you're singing and I'm coming on stage,

But it is basically a monopoly market, which means that the number of films can actually be controlled. As long as a big company produces them, no matter what they are made of, everyone can make money.

If this subjective assumption is true, then this conclusion is really scary.

Because this conclusion creates a very good market for bad money to drive out good money.

It took me three years to spend 5000 million to make a high-quality movie and earned [-] million. You spend [-] months and spent [-] million to make a bad movie and made [-] million.

It seems that high-quality movies make more money, but compared to the annualized rate of return, bad movies are much higher than high-quality movies. Do you think you will go to such troubles to make good movies?

Capital is not a philanthropist. It only looks at naked economic data such as capital return rate and annualized rate of return, and does not look at what is produced.

What's more, to make a good movie, you need not only good actors, but also a good director and a good screenwriter. Being good must mean expensive, so even putting aside the time issue, the pure employment cost of a good movie is higher.

How can capital like an expensive and slow movie?
A sufficiently small number of films and a large enough amount of hot money gave birth to this deformed film market.

What Lu Chen has been doing is to change the audience's attitude towards watching movies.

If it's a good movie, I'll go see it.

You can enjoy the bad movies wherever you want.

The result also developed in the direction Lu Chen expected. "The Mermaid" only got 20 billion box office is the best proof.

of course,

This box office has already made a lot of money in the eyes of many people.

But Lu Chen knew.

This is already consuming Master Xing's potential.

The audience's expectations for his next film have been greatly lowered.

There will definitely not be the movie-watching craze at the beginning of the release of "The Mermaid".

The reason why Lu Chen didn't use any means this time.

I just want to save it for the next movie. The potential of the audience is limited, and one movie wants to squeeze out the potential of the audience.

The result that awaits them is that the next movie is not as good as it should be.

No matter how good your next movie is!
The audience can't arouse too much interest.

Leave some regrets, and the audience will remember your kindness next time.

and so.

In the future, "Jurassic Park" will have more and more potential audiences, and now, netizens already know that Jiaxing Media is making a second monster movie.

above the last campaign.

When the reporter asked about related matters, Lu Chen personally admitted it.

Therefore, the news that Lu Chen is about to shoot the second monster movie also caused a huge response on the Internet.

Many fans even asked about the specific situation under Lu Chen's Weibo.

Lu Chen's Weibo.

Now it has close to 8000 million fans.

This number of fans is no less than that of some first-line artists.

Liu Shishi and the others only have this number of fans.

Every comment on his Weibo is worth millions.

Like now...

"What's the name of the new monster work?"

"Could it be the second part of "King Kong", Lu Chen doesn't want to revive King Kong, right?"

"Is the protagonist still Liu Shishi and Lu Chen?"

"By the way, did Lu Chen forget about Tang Lei? It's been a long time since I saw news from my family, Leilei."

"What are you talking about... Director Lu's kindness to Tang Lei can't even be compared to Liu Shishi. When others are still fighting to the death in China, Tang Lei is about to conquer Hollywood!"

"Exactly! I don't know when domestic video sites will introduce "Gotham". I want to see my Leilei's clown."

"I just want to know who is the protagonist of the new monster movie? Or Donkey Kong? I feel like we can change the animal. Anyway, overseas audiences also like this tune..."

……

Lu Chen occasionally logs on to Weibo.

When seeing so many people asking.Lu Chen simply didn't hide anything.

Posted a Weibo with a poster made by Zhang Guangying: "After "King Kong", my second monster movie is in production, and the movie under production is called "Jurassic Park" , please look forward to it.”

Brush brush.

It is the envy of many popular drinking stars.

Lu Chen's Weibo has tens of thousands of comments every minute, and it took less than 10 minutes to get hundreds of thousands of comments.

Countless netizens left messages.

It's all about Jurassic Park.

"Damn it, Director Lu's next movie is going to be a big dinosaur!"

"I'm looking forward to it, I'm so looking forward to it."

"It's not easy for Director Lu to keep his Weibo up and running. Hahaha, the poster of "Jurassic Park" is very shocking. I don't know what kind of big dinosaur Lu Chen presents."

"Wow, big dinosaur."

"I want to see what about Donkey Kong?"

……

This is Lu Chen's influence.

Lu Chen just revealed the name of "Jurassic Park", which directly made the name "Jurassic Park" parachute into the hot search list, and the speed of it made many veterans on Weibo dumbfounded.

5 minute later.

Jiaxing Media's official Weibo reposted it, and attached the Jurassic Park under construction.

Then major media reprinted it one after another, and stars from all walks of life reprinted it one after another.

The news that Lu Chen's new work is called "Jurassic Park" is already well known.

"The heat is really terrifying."

Looking at this scene in the industry now, they really have to be convinced. This "Jurassic Park" seems to be still in preparation.

Now relying on a name to swipe the screen, then it will be released in the future?

Lu Chen didn't expect it either.

He just wanted to take advantage of the remaining warmth of Donkey Kong to warm up "Jurassic Park", and by the way, say something to the major actresses in the entertainment industry.

I'm making a new film, come and audition.

That's right.

"Jurassic Park" heroine Lu Chen is preparing for an open audition.
