Entertainment: Stepmother’s daughter is actually a future queen

Chapter 191 The war ends, the future team, the sky cracks
A month later, Initial D was taken off the shelves and started to be sold on major online stores. However, the box office of major movies in mainland China was finally locked at 19 billion, which unfortunately did not exceed 8 billion.

The Hong Kong box office has achieved a score of 1.2 million, which is basically in the top ten of the year.

It is worth mentioning that among the global hits, Initial D had the best box office in RB, ranking sixth at the RB box office of the year, with RMB 40 billion.

In addition, in RB’s annual box office this year, the top four are all anime.

Initial D's box office success in RB is unprecedented.

And narrowing our focus to this online battleground, one month after the release of Tang Dynasty Gaiden and Ghost Shadow 2 on New Year's Day, they have entered a period of decline. However, not long after, Ghost Shadow 2 began to have strange phenomena. rebound.

At an astonishing speed, it began to rise against the trend.

At the same time, a piece of news spread that made the entire Tang Case crew restless.

"What? Say it again?"

The bespectacled man pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose. Even though he has been in the film industry for 20 years, this situation is also very strange. This is almost the first time he has seen such an outrageous thing.

"Manager." The assistant on the side said, sweating profusely, "This is true."

"Currently, our Tang Case has 4.4 million clicks and only 2.3 ghosts."

"But during this period, the number of clicks of ghosts has increased very strangely. The average daily clicks of our Tang case have dropped to 1300 million, while ghosts have bucked the trend and increased to 1700 million. And looking at the trend during this period, ghosts 2 is still going up.”

"In addition, the score of Ghost Shadow continues to rise, reaching 9.3 points."

"And our Tang case has been falling, and now it's back to 8.3 points."

There is nothing that can be done about it. As more and more people watch the movie, the behavior of brushing up the ratings before Tang's case is just a waste under the big data and cannot withstand the audience's vote.

The manager couldn't help scratching his head. It wasn't that he couldn't accept Tang's failure and the rise of ghosts, but this phenomenon was a little too abnormal.

"Have you checked, is there any movie that has been released for a month and still bucked the trend?"

"I checked." The assistant complained for a while, hesitated for a long time, and said helplessly, "Speaking of which, this is too strange. These are a group of people who read novels."

"What??" The man with glasses was really confused.

"Recently, a group of novel users in Qinzhou have poured into major video portals in large numbers to rate Guiying, give us negative reviews, and increase Guiying's traffic."

"After investigation, we learned that it is an online author named 'The Young Master of the Lin Family' who promotes his work as Ghost Story 2 on the Internet. What novels can be exchanged for subscribing to Ghost 2 and giving a perfect rating? Collector's Edition physical book."

These words made the man with glasses remain silent for more than ten minutes.

Finally, he opened his mouth and murmured, "What kind of novel is this, with such a huge flow?"

This really touches on his blind spot.

In fact, people in this world don’t understand the power of novel traffic at all. In another time and space, just relying on the IP of a few popular works can directly give you a huge box office.

Do you understand what the power of the Million Tieba Emperor is?

The user coverage of online novels exceeds [-] million, and all of them are young people. At the craziest time, novels are the number one entertainment on the Internet, followed by other media.

And the reason why the novel was adapted for film and television was that time and space often went awry. .One is that the adaptation is really rough and bad, and the other is that the divergent novel is just not suitable for adaptation!

All divergent novels are not suitable for adaptation. On the contrary, contracted novels, especially those with a single map, few characters, and relationships between several people from beginning to end, are suitable for adaptation.

Men's videos are mainly represented by young literary writers, and women's videos are basically OK. As for romance novels, there are only a few people who come and go.

As for Dou Po and Zhe Tian..., don't even think about it, it's impossible to get it right!

Even if you shoot it carefully, it won't work well. The divergent structure of this kind of novel is naturally contradictory to the contracted structure of the movie and cannot be changed.

People buy your IP simply to gain popularity and have no other meaning at all.

But it is undeniable that the influence of the novel is huge.

Nowadays, the power of novels is still far less than a few percent of its peak, but it is enough to know that this is the Tang Dynasty crew.

Glasses was stunned for a long time and couldn't help but ask, "Then can't we also buy advertising?"

"Is this expensive?"

"...I haven't tried it. It shouldn't be expensive. However, the eldest son of the Lin family is the only big shot in that circle, no one else."

The man with glasses, "..."

“What if we buy it too??”

"We asked, but they didn't bother us. When we called, the editorial department hung up on us."

The man with glasses, "..."

Why is the relationship so strong?

Okay, this is a kick to someone else's hometown, right?
He is really depressed, but he has such weird connections, right? What can you do?

"Dong dong dong", just at this moment, someone else ran over.

"manager!"

A little secretary said breathlessly, sweating profusely, "Rotten Tomatoes just gave us the news that Ghost Story bought 2000 million in advertising!"

"From now on, I have bought up all the traffic after the New Year!"

"What!??" The man with glasses couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up immediately, his face turned pale. He was stunned for a while, and then said in disbelief, "2000 million?? Doesn't he want to take the profit?"

"He... I heard that the production cost of his gadget is less than 100 million."

The man with glasses, "..."

After a long time, the bespectacled man sat down on the stool and logged on to various major platforms to take a look. Seeing the overwhelming advertisements about ghost recordings, the bespectacled man couldn't help but push up his glasses, and his whole person became calm.

"We lost, let's prepare for the next movie."

"The strong dragon does not suppress the local weakling. They are teaching us a lesson... Please withdraw the advertising money and don't waste it anymore."

The man with glasses pushed up his glasses and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The industry is not easy to do.

With the scale of Tang Dynasty, and a film that can be considered to be well-produced, a large network can still lose. Who can believe this?
But that's the truth.

Every territory in this world has its own king!
. . .

Hit one punch to avoid a hundred punches.

Lin Yu knew this truth very well. After spending almost half a month on advertisements regardless of the cost, Lin Yu knew that he had won when he heard the news that Tang Case had withdrawn advertisements.

Even the Tang case was lost. Theoretically, no one dared to touch the Ghost Shadow series on the territory of the Internet University.

For example, the Nightmare crew. .I was so scared that I canceled it again.

So what should we do? He is still as angry as a tiger. The ads have bought up all the traffic for his New Year's Eve. Do you dare to join? ?

Your two movies have almost the same pattern. If you mess around with it, you may not know what it means to lose money.

Let’s let’s continue after the New Year.The Nightmare crew was on the verge of tears.

. . .

"Boss, after the Chinese New Year, we should film Ghost 3."

There were jubilant voices in the dormitory. In two days, the school would be on holiday. The first half of the freshman year was over, and it was time to go back to celebrate the New Year.

This time, Lin Yu paid two thousand dollars out of his own pocket, and they were convinced.

I don’t care what the Tang Dynasty crew is, they just give you a tough fight.

I was forced to scare people away, and I was forced to accept the failure of subsequent advertising projects.

Probably everyone in the Internet University circle knows about the crazy crew of Ghost Movie.

It only cost 30 to make a movie.

Advertising, 2000 million!
"Ha." Lin Yu smacked the palms of his hands. The weather had reached its current level and was gradually starting to cool down.

Now wrapped in a sweater, I still feel a little cold in my limbs.

"No more shooting now."

"For the Ghost series, we can shoot it once every six months. For six series, we can shoot it for three years."

"Ghost 3 will be filmed in the second half of the semester."

After saying that, Lin Yu glanced at his roommates and said, "Liang Wei."

Lin Yu said to the second child, "I'm sorry to trouble you. You go to the directing department of our Central Academy of Drama to look for more talented people. In this way, I will give you a list later. You can go and find out if there is anyone on it. .”

Lin Yu used his own memory to find unknown SSRs.

But Lin Yu is not sure how far they have developed in this era.

If he happens to be in the same class again, the probability is really low, but Lin Yu wants to try it out.

"Ah? Boss, don't you plan to take the photo yourself?"

The third child couldn't help but said.

"Yes." Lin Yu nodded and said seriously, "The Ghost Record series will not improve me in any way if I continue to shoot it. It will only make me money. I plan to challenge the more difficult ones."

"Next year, my goal is to shoot a handheld DVD movie with a non-fixed scene, Encounter in the Cemetery."

"After Encounter in the Cemetery, I no longer plan to make handheld DVD series. I plan to make a serious movie with an investment of tens of millions."

Everyone in the dormitory was silent. They really didn't understand Lin Yu's brain circuit.

Since you can make money, why not continue filming?
For example, this ghosting, the cost is small anyway, so it is really difficult to lose money.

I will pursue this series and shoot a hundred and eighty parts until I no longer make any money.

Of course, this is an exaggeration. Basically, if you shoot 7 or 8, the audience should scold you.

"Because I want to take better pictures." Lin Yu only said this, and did not intend to say that people's dreams should be hidden before they are realized, otherwise they will just be taken out and laughed at.

Lin Yu thought very simply. There was no point in shooting ghost images. It was better to leave it to the next 'director' to practice.

Lin Yu didn't want to dig up a half-finished SSR, which would be of no use at all.

As for myself, I could shoot Encounter in the Graveyard first, then Troubled Charlotte, and finally Hello, Li Huanying.

The reason why Li Huanying was put at the end was because Zhang Xiaofei would never be able to sign her if he didn't let her pounce until no one wanted her.

Lin Yu needs Zhang Xiaofei, a new director above the SR level, to be his teammate!

Secondly, Lin Yu will find out what the current situation of Happy Mahua's team is like.

If they are together, pack them up; if they are scattered and full of stars, then dig them out one by one!
You have your own team!

But these words cannot be said to these brothers. It is hard to say whether these people will part ways with themselves in the future.

And just by bringing down a ghostly crew, Lin Yu realized that a director and actors alone were not enough.

A complete, behind-the-scenes crew is a must.

And this team needs to slowly gather together what they need most!

. . .

While Lin Yu was conceiving his grand blueprint, a quarrel broke out on the Xiangjiang side.

Canopy Company.

"Hua Zai, when are our companies planning to go public?" Mai Shaotang, the boss of China State Construction Engineering Corp., who was wearing glasses and a little short and chubby, asked helplessly.

Hearing this, Liu Dehua couldn't help but frown, "Our company does not have the qualifications and conditions to be listed at all."

"Look, we've only been in business for less than four years, we don't have enough artists under our command, and the movies we've invested in have suffered more losses than profits. Now we're going to go public...?"

Liu Dehua's brows furrowed for a while and he didn't say any more.

"That's why we need to go public." Mai Shaotang said patiently, "Why are you running a company? It's also to make money. Don't always have the same vision as an artist. Make movies... Only by making movies can you make money. How much? You saw it yourself."

"This is the 21st century. We are no longer a hawker in the vegetable market. A potato costs 3 cents, you sell it for 5 cents and earn 2 cents. Now it is a financial concept."

"If you go public and increase your market value, your profit will be billions, billions."

"Why bother with this?"

"Isn't this a lie?" Liu Dehua spread his hands. This kind of useless argument has been carried out countless times. "Our company currently has a mature investment system, so we go public to make money."

"This company is my hard work and my dream to make movies. I'm not just going to make a fortune and wait to go bankrupt."

Liu Dehua said sincerely.

Mai Shaotang also said that he was tired of it. He had had similar quarrels more than a dozen times. He couldn't help but coldly said, "Hua Zai, I can only tell you that this is business, and this is how business is done." !”

"What about you? If you invest the company's money, you will always lose money!"

"3000 million, the company has already lost 3000 million in its account!"

"How long are you going to keep doing this!" Mai Shaotang couldn't help but slam his fist on the table, "You are the boss and the boss doesn't understand, and you don't understand investment. Why do you expect me to listen to you?"

"You have to wait until the company goes bankrupt before you are willing to do it? Is it still too late?"

"The 5000 million you invested is money, and the 5000 million I invested is not money? I should play games with your 'dream'?"

"I respect your dream, do you respect my money??"
