Is it not a galgame?

On October 2000, 10, "The Matrix 15: Reloaded" produced by Moon River Co., Ltd. was simultaneously released in major theaters around the world.

Due to the influence of its predecessor, The Matrix 2 can be said to have been a hit before it became popular.

On the day of the actual screening, the seats were basically packed.

Among major theaters, The Matrix is ​​basically fully booked, not because of the popularity of Pokeni or Moon River, nor because of Keanu Reeves, Nolan, Angelina Jolie...

It can only be said that The Matrix 1 is so famous, especially with the support of pokeni, it can be said to be unparalleled in terms of computer special effects.

The Matrix series, in particular, not only has gorgeous action fighting scenes and cool computer special effects, but also has very subversive thoughts on the authenticity of the world, discussions on the omnic crisis, combined with Western theology...

Not only does it blend very well, it's also so smooth that it even makes people's hearts tremble.

The Matrix 2 continues the story of The Matrix 1, telling the story of Neo becoming the savior to end the war between mankind and the Matrix Empire.

Neo finally realized his abilities and mission. When he was shot and "resurrected", he also became an omnipotent "savior".

Neo will lead the people of Zion Base to start a counterattack against the machine world, and will end this battle as a winner and return freedom to mankind.

After defeating Agent Smith and rescuing Morpheus, Neo, along with his close lover Trinity and other comrades, took a spaceship back to Zion Base, the last human stronghold on Earth.

"Hahaha, although it's a bit heavy-handed, the truth seems to be true. Half of it suddenly disappeared, and the heart-scratching feeling was really uncomfortable.

Don't do anything stupid. "

……

What I'm most looking forward to right now is the third one.

But the story ends abruptly here, which is really uncomfortable.

At this moment, the Matrix System decided to "strike first" and dispatched an army of 250000 electronic squids to attack the Zion base. The weak base defense force was simply not enough to fight against such a powerful mecha corps. It seemed that humans The last incense is also in danger;
Neo and the others decided to sneak into the matrix again, destroy it from the inside, and finally achieve the goal of annihilating the Mecha Corps.

So human life hangs on a thread.

"If you look at The Matrix 2 separately, the story seems to be complete in stages: 1 tells the story of Trinity reviving the dead Neo, while in 2 it's the other way around.

There is a lot of buzz on the Internet about The Matrix 2:
"I felt lonely after watching The Matrix. I couldn't understand it at all, especially a lot of the dialogue in it. The most important thing is, this is only half of it!

There, they gather with other freedom fighters, including Morpheus's sweet enemy, Naobi.

It's just like reading a novel. I'm reading the most exciting part, but the author doesn't update it anymore, so I just updated it. Is that okay? "

Between the two, Neo, the love brain, finally chose to save Trinity according to the established path of fate...

"I heard that Part Two and Three were filmed together. Since Part Two has been released, Part Three shouldn't be too far away, right?"

But just looking at the special effects and fighting is actually worth the price of admission.

"The production level of Moon River is beyond praise. It was already perfectly demonstrated in The Matrix 1 and even further improved in The Matrix 2. The white-haired twins' wall-traveling virtualization setting is also amazing.

It really seemed like the producers and bosses of Yuehe Company were arrested and beaten.

The entire "The Matrix 2: Reloaded" is the process of Neo exploring the truth behind his mission. He has to find an acceptable reason for his actions.

If it can be included in the game in the future, I can’t even imagine what it will be like. "

And judging from the subsequent easter eggs, there should be a back-up in the third part, which means that it is very likely that Neo's right choice is to save Trinity. Not only can he save the one he loves, but he is also expected to be able to do more in the future. Liberate all mankind.

Unfortunately, Neo was finally faced with two choices: one was to enter the host to end the war, and the other was to go back and save Trinity.

"Fortunately, Yuehe Company seems to be producing the third part, so it should be completed."

“Sometimes it’s not good to have too high expectations. For a movie like The Matrix that is timeless and original, I just hope that The Matrix 3 can land smoothly and tell the story completely.

It's like he was halfway through taking a poop and had to hold it back. "

It is equivalent to releasing the mystery, but the reveal of the mystery is placed in the third part.

"Smith really scared me, and so many people were fighting in such an orderly and well-organized way. The whole battle scene was gorgeous and clear. It was really extraordinary.

In addition, politicians from the base also appeared.

I hope Yuehe can put Sanya up earlier. "

"Damn it, is it so disgusting upstairs? I was eating just now, and I can't hold it in when I see this."

Seriously, don't do too many tricks.

The trio of Neo, Morpheus, and Trinity fit my definition of cool perfectly. "

Many viewers couldn't help but feel unfinished when they saw this.

The love between the two is above all else, which seems a little uncomfortable.

As for The Matrix 2, although I don’t quite understand Neo’s final choice of Trinity, I can still watch it.

If you read the plot of The Matrix, you will definitely be confused, because this is only half of the content.

Compared with the fate of mankind, it is actually difficult for most people to accept that Neo would choose Trinity, but from a personal perspective, there seems to be nothing wrong with choosing the person you love.

Obviously, The Matrix 2 is not the end, and only half of the story is told, so there is an Easter egg at the end of the film to preview the third part of The Matrix.

I hope The Matrix 3 can justify itself and give a more reasonable answer, right?
Preferably a happy ending. Please, Yuehe.

"Actually, if you ignore the plot, the special effects alone are quite exciting. The various fighting scenes, bullet trails, and the car chase on the highway are simply amazing.

The Matrix 2 comes to an abrupt end.

Damn it Nolan, he only shot half of the content and released it. "

"Although it's not too far away, no matter how you look at it, we won't see The Matrix 2001 until 3. I guess Yuehe wants to release a blockbuster movie every year to compete for Oscars.

They must have been very disappointed when The Matrix failed to win Best Picture last year.

If it doesn't work once, I'll probably have to do it a second time.

If it doesn’t work the second time, don’t you think March will come next year? "

“Hey, so in the end it’s us, the audience, who feel uncomfortable. The capitalists’ eyes are all about money, and the film’s release process, promotion process, and subsequent comments... are actually all designed.

I feel that Yue He, or Qing Zhiyuan, is the biggest BOSS in this world.

As if everything was under his control. "

"Damn... when you say that, it seems a little bit scary."

"The world is actually a huge pokeni, right? Moon River is just a clone of Pokeni. In fact, all of us live in a matrix set by Qing Zhiyuan." "Fuck, don't discuss it anymore. I feel like I’ll have nightmares at night.”

“There are many ultimate questions, especially those like Brain in a Vat, where you will never know the answer, and you will end up getting more and more panicked, and eventually drive yourself crazy.

So I suggest that everyone just enjoy watching it and continue with your current life.

The world is worth it. "

……

The release of The Matrix 2 naturally triggered a lot of heated discussions on the Internet, from the quality of the film to the highlights, to inferences, to the future impact, and the resulting discussion about the omnic crisis...

Too many to count.

But there is only one thing. It is true that The Matrix 2 has injected new joy into the world.

In a long life, having such two hours of ultimate movie-watching experience has made many people think it was worth it.

And because of the release of The Matrix 2, the audience is full of expectations for the third part.

If The Matrix 1 is the awakening of Neo's consciousness, then The Matrix 2 is an out-and-out transformation of Neo into Superman, devoting himself wholeheartedly to the responsibility of saving the world.

In the previous film, Agent Smith said: Humans are diseases, Neo is plague and cancer, and these agents are anti-virus software used to correct program bugs.

But in the second part, when Smith was destroyed by Neo's possession and reborn, he broke away from the control of his mother's body and turned into a virus that wanted to survive to avoid being hunted down by anti-virus programs.

Not only does it give Neo an opportunity to fight dozens of exciting martial arts battles, but it also makes people shudder to realize that Smith may be the virus that shuttles between two spaces, constantly replicating, spreading and causing destruction.

The entire movie has made a lot of preparations for the third part, and also implanted some difficult philosophical thoughts, theology, and the law of cause and effect into this movie. Although it is a bit difficult to understand, it does not prevent it from being a movie worth watching. A super cool science fiction blockbuster.

Therefore, after The Matrix 2 was released, it quickly became the box office champion of the month, and its performance skyrocketed.

At the end of the first week, The Matrix 2's total box office in North America has exceeded US$8900 million, making it one of the top ten movies in film history.

At the end of the first month, the total box office performance of "The Matrix: Reloaded" in North America exceeded US$2 million.

The global box office total exceeded US$4.2 million.

This number is simply terrifying.

You must know that the total global box office results of The Matrix 1 so far are only 4.6 million US dollars.

Therefore, it is certain that The Matrix 2 will break through the 1st grade, but where it will end up is still worthy of discussion.

According to speculation by third-party agencies, The Matrix 2's total global box office is likely to fall between US$7 million and US$9 million.

Although there is still a long way to go compared to Titanic's box office performance of more than one billion US dollars.

In 2000, it was already a miracle to achieve such results.

……

Since Yuehe has its own distribution companies in the United States and Neon, it can get a bit more in terms of revenue sharing, which is almost the same as the 55-yuan distribution of theater chains.

In other regions, because you have to cooperate with local distributors, you will naturally be cut off, so you can probably get 20% of the total box office.

Even so, according to a rough estimate, after all the filming of The Matrix 2 is completed, Moon River will be able to receive more than 3 million US dollars.

It can cover the production and publicity costs, and still make more than 1 million US dollars.

As for the profit, it's a little bit low, and because it has to invest in other movies, this money is just a drop in the bucket of the US$10 billion budgeted by Hitotsubashi Mune.

However, The Matrix 2 does not simply use box office to measure its value.

After the success of The Matrix 2, Moon River Company has once again entered everyone's field of vision, and has made people aware of-

The strength of this company really cannot be underestimated.

Especially with pokeni as the technical backing, Yuehe Company's computer technology level is second to none in the world.

This also gives Hitotsubashi Fue a huge bargaining chip and room for negotiation in other blockbusters in the future. At least The Matrix 2 proves that film and television companies like Neon can still produce movies with super high commercial value.

There's nothing that Yuehe can't do even if it's something you can't think of.

……

At the same time, in the second month after The Matrix 2 was released, pokeni launched its own linkage game——

"The Matrix"

This game had previously made a splash at the E3 electronics show and became the hottest topic at the time, especially after Keanu Reeves broke the dimensional wall with a punch and followed Angelina Jolie who fell from the sky to ignite the atmosphere. The game Empire is already very popular.

Until now, due to the release of "The Matrix 2", the game has once again become popular.

Even before the movie is over, the Matrix game has become the hottest topic nowadays.

The heat was frightening.

In November, the new "The Matrix" produced by pokeni in the United States was officially released globally. Not only is it available on physical discs, but it can even be purchased and downloaded directly online through point cards in the Omi region with developed networks.

The game's cool special effects, bullet time skills, and combat system full of combat, and blood-boiling game content give players an extremely high gaming experience.

Under such circumstances, the Matrix swept the world like a storm in an instant.

In the first week alone, the global sales of the "Matrix" game reached an astonishing 141 million copies.

And with the popularity of the movie, sales are still rising.

In the second week, it even reached a terrifying score of 176 million copies.

In other words, according to the current trend, I am afraid that within a few months, the "Matrix" series will become another terrifying game of Paradox after Pokémon, with sales exceeding 10 million.

And all of this is based on the premise that the movie has achieved extremely high global popularity after its explosion.

The movie-game linkage is so terrifying.
