Don't give me black technology

Chapter 197
As the Chinese Lunar New Year is approaching, the annual Spring Festival travel has begun, major cities have begun to appear "empty cities", and all walks of life have also issued holiday notices.

With leisure, the common people pay more attention to entertainment life.Taking advantage of this opportunity, the movies in the Spring Festival file are all vigorously promoted.

Mobile phones, computers, TVs, and roadside billboards, you can see related advertisements and publicity everywhere.

Meng Xiaobai had also been thinking about this matter, so he paid special attention to it.

There are thirteen films released during the Spring Festival this year, and the competition is extremely fierce. Any big names in the film industry who can be named can be seen in this year's Spring Festival.

On the way home, Meng Xiaobai was scrolling through relevant news on his mobile phone. Some media had already made an estimated box office ranking for the movies in the Spring Festival.

Uncle Cat said about the movie: "The box office competition for the Spring Festival this year is quite fierce, but there are three movies that can be said to never hit the street if they don't die!"

"The first one is "Happy Detective 3". As we all know, the first and second parts of "Happy Detective" were released during the Spring Festival in the previous two years, and each of them exceeded one billion at the box office. Director Zhao Long + Two comedy movie stars, with such a strong lineup, guaranteed a box office of one billion yuan, they may even become the box office champion of this year's Spring Festival!"

"The second is "Rush Life". The director of this film is the creation of the famous writer and director Chai Renjun. It also has actor and actress to join in! The estimated box office is more than one billion, and it has a chance to hit 20 billion!"

"The third is "Pioneer" filmed by a famous director from Hong Kong Island. This film is also incredible. There are both established stars and popular niches. The screenwriter is even known as the star of Hong Kong Island screenwriters. It is also very worth looking forward to. From Uncle Cat The forecast is also more than one billion at the box office!"

Seeing this, Meng Xiaobai couldn't help complaining: "What level is this person? Does he think our "Shading the Sky 1: Beidou" can't even enter the top three?"

"Maybe it's not enough advertising." In his car, Meng Ze said.

Meng Ze is the son of Meng Jianzhang, the former director of Siben Electronics Factory. He is now also in the management team of Siben Electronics. He returned to his hometown with Meng Xiaobai during the Chinese New Year.

Meng Xiaobai continued, writing in the article: "Except for these three films, many other films can only be cannon fodder. Of course, it is not ruled out that a dark horse may be born."

"The most controversial one is an IP movie, "Shading the Sky 1: Beidou"."

"According to Uncle Mao's understanding, this movie is adapted from a novel written by a certain internet writer, and it is considered a big IP. But the difficulty is that this is a fantasy novel. Yes, it is the kind that will collapse at every turn, and the stars will change. High-energy scenes. Predictably, this is going to be a special effects movie."

"The film crew claims to have invested more than 7 million yuan in filming, and we have not yet known the actual effect. But judging from the previous "special effects masterpieces" of Chinese-language films, almost without exception, they all hit the street! Compared with films of the same period, the director and director of this film The cast has almost the lowest reputation."

"I even heard that the leading actors of this movie are all newcomers, and they don't have any box office appeal. Therefore, Uncle Cat predicts that this movie will still hit the market to a large extent. There is a slight possibility of rising, but it is difficult to exceed one billion box office. , It is estimated that it will be difficult for the investor to recover the cost.”

Under the comments below the article, netizens are also paying attention and looking forward to it.

Reminiscing: "Looking forward to "Pioneer", I'm watching my husband's movie, and I will definitely support it!"

Loach is not an eel: "Watch "Happy Detective 3" absolutely, the director and actors are very strong, it is definitely not a bad movie!"

Big Buffalo: "On the first day of the Lunar New Year, did anyone watch "Pioneer" together?",

Xiaolong 48451: "I want to watch both "Hurry Up" and "Happy Detective 3"!"

Meng Xiaobai turned to the second page, only to find someone's comment on "Shading the Sky 1: Beidou".

Sleepless Night: "The movie "Covering the Sky"? I really like the novel, but the movie... is really a bit of a mystery. The fantasy films I have made in the past few years are all rubbish, and they are all bullshit. Please don't ruin my heart again." It's a classic!"

This comment has hundreds of likes. It seems that many people agree with his point of view, and they are not very optimistic about "Shading the Sky 1: Beidou".

……

When Meng Xiaobai returned home, it was still the old house. The new house was basically completed, but it will be next year after the decoration is completed and it can be moved in.

There are no major changes in the house, only some new furniture has been added.In addition, my father Meng Lei started to learn how to keep in good health, and bought a set of tea sets at home, as well as a lot of precious tea leaves. I heard from my mother Tang Biyun that he is still studying potted plants and antiques.

Meng Xiaobai is not very interested in these, anyway, as long as parents can find something to do is enough.

"Should we stay longer this year?" Tang Biyun asked.

"Yeah." Meng Xiaobai nodded, "Leave after the movie is released."

"Movie? That's what you said, what movie invested hundreds of millions?" Tang Biyun asked.

"Yes."

"If you invest so much money, can you get back your money?" Meng Lei said, "I checked on the Internet, and the movie you invested in can only get back its money at the box office of 20 billion. In recent years, domestic movies that can exceed 20 billion at the box office are basically Not many."

"That's why I have to try!" Meng Xiaobai said, "This time is a big production, so it should work."

"They all say they are a big production!" Tang Biyun complained: "During the summer vacation, what movie did your dad and I go to see, it also claimed to invest hundreds of millions, and some star actor participated in it, but it turned out to be a bad movie. I heard that That movie almost bankrupted the film company!"

"Others are bragging, but we are telling the truth." Meng Xiaobai smiled, "Don't worry, even if you pay, I can afford it."

"How can you pay for it! It's unlucky, let's talk about it!" Tang Biyun said.

Meng Xiaobai stayed at home for a few more days, met some relatives and friends, and visited his cousin Meng Hua's rural ecological product company.

After Meng Xiaobai invested in him, Meng Hua has developed well this year, taking over the agricultural products and agricultural by-products of several villages, and has also cooperated with fresh food e-commerce companies.

They even set up online breeding, which is to ask netizens to pay for a piglet. You can check the piglet's condition in real time through the Internet, and send the meat to the piglet when it grows up.

"Brother, I will calculate all your income for you." Compared with last year, Meng Hua seemed a little more mature, and he said, "Do you want to collect the money directly, or continue to invest the profits? I plan to raise this Scale up..."

"You kid, you still beat around the bush when you say something." Meng Xiaobai said loudly, "Then continue to invest the profits."

"Okay! Brother Bai, from now on, we will take care of all the pork, duck and fish in your family and your company!" Meng Hua said happily.
