China Entertainment: Let you shoot for charity and make tens of billions?
Chapter 666: Can the box office hit the top 5 in the world? Top ?
Until the end of the movie, many viewers were still immersed in the plot.
Some people had tears on their faces, while others were amazed at the quality of the picture.
In fact, after Su Yi fully cooperated with Warner Bros., some technologies had already spread to Longguo.
At that time, Su Yi took the lead in shooting the first IMAX movie, which directly snatched part of the box office of Avatar.
After that, Warner Bros. also cooperated with many domestic companies, hoping to make some blockbuster movies.
But regardless of success or failure, this technology was passed down in Dragon Country.
This time, Light Media spent a huge amount of money, spending almost 10 billion on the special effects of the animation alone, not to mention composition, dubbing, and post-production.
Although the investment in poetic and picturesque TV dramas is usually big productions, in fact, when investing in most movies, more than 5 million is considered a huge amount of money.
Especially for an animated film, it is even more expensive.
Although Nezha 1 was very popular, as the online public opinion gathered and changed, Guangguang Media was also prepared to lose money.
However, before the film was released, he couldn't wait any longer and found Su Yi, asking him to help promote it.
Of course, he also understood that Su Yi's reputation was just a gimmick, and the quality of the film would ultimately matter. The reason why Su Yi readily agreed was not only because of his good relationship with the other party, but also because, as a time traveler, he knew the importance that Jiaozi Studio and Guangguang Media attached to this work.
The film eventually made it into the top five in the world box office and reached the top three.
It became the highest-grossing animated film in history.
Some people say that this is wishful thinking on the part of the Chinese people, as most of the box office revenue is generated domestically.
But in fact, I only watched those foreign animated films from Disney and DreamWorks when I had no choice at the time.
If there were an animated film like Nezha competing at the same time, at least in Dragon Country, I really don’t know what the final result would be.
The animated films shot in the West certainly did not have such brilliant results, so when the CEO of Guangguang came to him and asked for promotion, Su Yi agreed.
The CEO of Guangxian was not an ungrateful person. Although Su Yi strongly refused at that time, he still signed a contract with Su Yi, which was to use 10% of the box office as publicity expenses.
In fact, this price is not very high, because Su Yi’s publicity is what any movie dreams of. Under his name, even if they shoot a pile of shit, it may be worth ten billion!
Of course, if you really do this, you may quickly consume your popularity. No matter who you are, it is impossible to rely on your reputation for publicity every time.
Su Yi knew the potential of this movie, and he was not against money. By the way, he could also help the movie reach a higher peak.
However, after this incident is exposed, it is estimated that it will cause an uproar. At the very least, the box office will be over 10 billion, and he will get more than billion!
It is one of the most expensive advertising costs in the world.
But it's all worth it.
No matter how good the quality of a movie is, people must first have the opportunity to see it in the cinema.
Even though Nezha 1 also had good box office success, there will still need to be enough publicity this time.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many cinemas scheduling such a high screening rate.
……
"I kind of regret having you come over to see this."
Su Yi looked at Liu Shishi's tear-stained face and said with some heartache.
If it had happened in the past, Liu Shishi might have been touched, but not to such a great extent. But this time she is about to become a mother, so she is still very sad.
Especially when they were about to be refined into elixir, Nezha and his mother both tried desperately to sacrifice themselves in exchange for the other's life.
Liu Shishi leaned on Su Yi's shoulder and quickly calmed herself down. Yang Mi and others beside her also had tears on their faces. A good movie can quickly stir up your emotions, and even some sentimental people cannot control it at all.
"The movie script is really well written, and the pictures are also very good. I don't know if our island hasn't introduced it yet. I will definitely promote this animated film when the time comes! I didn't expect that we have the strength to rival foreign animated films! Director Su Yi, I heard that Guangguang Media cooperated with you to produce this film, and you also wrote the script?"
Ang Lee sighed, feeling that Dragon Country's film production was improving at a very fast pace.
The movie has ended, but the directors have not left.
Even though they had never participated in the production of an animated film before and had no interest in it, they still felt some emotion after watching it.
"Since I participated in the show last time, the island has been stricter about the movies here, but it doesn't matter. We are all family and will be on it sooner or later. It's just that there is a layer between us now, and this layer will be lifted sooner or later. The Golden Horse Award judges who promised to attend you before didn't go. I will definitely go when I have the chance today. Thank you for helping us promote the movie. And the director of the work on the Poetry and Painting Platform said in the media that because of participating in the recording of the Poetry and Painting Platform, his own value has been lowered."
After hearing Su Yi's words, a helpless smile appeared on Li An's face.
Although these media have restrained themselves to a certain extent, they still often spread smears. However, the managers of the island also participated in Su Yi's wedding, so these media have also restrained themselves, but ridicule and sarcasm are still inevitable.
However, the Shiqinghuayi platform is very conscientious and has not been able to find anything to discredit it. It just so happens that Nezha 2 is released this time, and mainland movies are being reviewed now, so there are more sarcastic remarks.
"We are still more optimistic about the Angry Birds animated film, after all, it has the sentiments of many people! And the plot seems to be more exciting!"
On the other side of the island, people seem to admire a simple life more.
Sony bought the copyright of the Angry Birds cartoon and made it into an animated film, which was released at the same time as Nezha 2.
Now we are competing on the same stage.
"Yes, I also think that Angry Birds will definitely beat Nezha 2 in seconds. What era is this? We are still watching these outdated animations! Director Su Yi is just rehashing old stuff."
Many film critics on the other side of the island have been complaining about it. Although they haven't seen the feature film yet, they have already started to make negative comments.
Faced with these voices, Su Yi acted as if he didn't hear them. He really was not in the mood to talk nonsense with them.
But Ang Lee always pays attention to these.
Because in Ang Lee's view, Su Yi is the pride of the Chinese people, and even the pride of Asians.
Who is the mainstream in the world now?
No matter what example you give, it is the culture of white people that is popular all over the world.
Moreover, the aesthetics and living habits, even food, clothing, housing and transportation, of most countries are leaning towards white people.
If you want to know where the most backward place is, it must be Africa.
At least that's what most people think.
But if you want to know where the richest places are, it must be the West and North America.
This idea is deeply rooted, but it is true that they are wealthy. After all, the dividends from the great shipping era are enough to support them for many years.
But in fact, after World War II, after the establishment of the New Dragon Kingdom, everything developed at a rapid pace.
But they have not made much progress, and much of their infrastructure is very old.
Moreover, the prosperity of a country does not mean that all its people are happy.
However, they are very good at propaganda, always giving people the impression that the people are extremely wealthy and live a good life every day. This propaganda is in movies and TV series. Some of the TV series that Longguo has won awards before, especially those that have won major awards abroad, are mostly satirical, especially about how difficult life is for the poor, how the spirit wants to be liberated, but is controlled by reality, etc.
This was a propaganda war, but there was no other way. At that time, the primary goal of Longguo was to have enough food and water, so it fell into the inferior position at the beginning and was always filmed according to their rules.
But now the situation has changed. Su Yi uses the means they are good at to attack them.
This caught them off guard and even made them helpless. Even the BBC and CNN had failed repeatedly and had to retreat under Su Yi's pressure.
Since they couldn't handle face-to-face confrontation, they could only rely on the old method and slowly infiltrate some movies.
Anyway, this is how the island is treated. As a famous director, Ang Lee can naturally notice this.
So he has been inviting Su Yi to be a judge of the Golden Horse Awards. The first reason is to increase the value of the Golden Horse Awards, and the second is to make people on the island more familiar with Su Yi.
Su Yi’s previous participation in the show gave the young people on this island a lot of new insights.
In their previous thinking, life on the continent was even worse than in Africa.
They are there to be 'saved'.
And no matter what happens in the mainland, it is not allowed. At the beginning, some people even said that they could not afford to eat tea eggs, which came from here.
It's like someone suddenly bragging about India on the Internet, saying that India is the world's most powerful country and that the food is very clean. No one would believe it.
The only difference is that the situation in India is real, while that in Longguo is completely slandered.
There’s a long way to go!
Ang Lee sighed in his heart, even though he preferred the purity of the film and that it should not be mixed with other things, such as politics.
But after so many years in Hollywood, he also knows that if he had not come from an island, he might not have had the opportunity to shoot so many Hollywood blockbusters.
Similarly, it is precisely because Wen Ziren is of Chinese descent, not Chinese, that he was able to have the opportunity to film in Hollywood and become famous.
Many times it is not just a question of ability, but also a question of identity!
Thinking of this, Li An shook his head helplessly.
But no matter what, Su Yi is now the "savior" of Chinese entertainment!
After removing his identity within the system, he seems to be more mature and stable, and can also use more means!
“I’m definitely going this year.”
Su Yi shook Li Ang's hand. He could feel the other party's sincerity. Although the two had different ideas, the general direction was correct.
"I guess Sony is going to lose money this time!"
Wang Jiawei also stood up with a smile and shook hands with Su Yi to say goodbye.
"You're welcome. I'm actually more looking forward to your TV series. This is also a shock to the TV industry."
Wang Jiawei smiled and waved.
"There's no need to be so polite between us. But I'm under a lot of pressure."
Jiang Wen smiled bitterly, and seeing that Liu Shishi was not around, he also lit a cigarette.
"It's okay, isn't the filming finished?"
Su Yi comforted her with a few words.
In fact, in this kind of competition, the winner or loser doesn’t mean anything, because they are all top directors, and for them, many times what they lose is not the level of filming, but the script.
Jiang Wen is the least advantageous here.
Because this script is adapted from Ghost and Fox Legend, and it is a collection of various short stories.
If nothing unexpected happens, it should be "The Human World" filmed by Ang Lee that wins.
This time, what we are comparing is nothing else but the viewing time of a single episode, the number of people who have opened membership, and so on.
This itself has an element of luck.
So Su Yi didn't care much. It was possible for anyone to win, and it didn't mean anything.
Even if Ang Lee loses, no one will say that he is incompetent.
All I can say is that the script isn't good enough.
"I'm just being hypocritical for once. I won't tell anyone else."
Jiang Wen was rarely embarrassed, because what she had just said seemed to be a sign of weakness.
But in fact, Jiang Wen had his own ideas. He hinted to Su Yi to help promote him, but in his own words: How can such a fucking thing be said openly?
And Su Yi did not expect that Jiang Wen, who had always been very confident, actually had such a side to him.
"I estimate that the box office of Nezha this time will reach 80 billion! I really don't understand this domestic film."
Jiang Wen sighed. The past two years had indeed passed very quickly, especially for the subject matter of movies. These former bigwigs in the Beijing circle had either retired or transformed and improved.
When Jiang Wen was in the Beijing circle, he didn't rely on anyone.
I still feel a little twisted now and haven't changed my mind.
This is also the reason why Zhou Yun asked Jiang Wen to come over.
Jiang Wen was a little bit dissatisfied at first, but I won't talk about other things. What else is so explosive about this animated film?
But what Jiang Wen could not have imagined was that even if he made movies for his entire life, he would not be able to make such a high box office.
"The box office this time should be more than 80 billion."
Su Yi said with a smile.
More than 80 billion?
"Including overseas box office?"
Jiang Wen was stunned. If someone else said this, Jiang Wen probably wouldn't believe it.
But it was Su Yi who said it, and as far as he knew, Su Yi had never boasted!
"Now that you mention it, it's just premiered and it's already going to hit the world box office rankings?"
Jiang Wen was still a little unconvinced, but he only expressed it in words.
"Haha, Director Jiang, there will soon be a Dragon Country production on the world box office rankings!"
"And it's in the top ten of the box office rankings!"
Jiang Wen looked at Su Yi's confident look and felt a little shocked.
Just an animated film?
Not so!
He instinctively wanted to question, but after thinking for a long time, he still didn't say anything.
Because it seems that it is rare to see Su Yi so determined. (End of this chapter)
