China Entertainment Times

Chapter 801 Sending money to the country?

Because the same evacuation incident as "OPERATION RED SEA" happened in reality, and the location was near the Red Sea, "OPERATION RED SEA" became entertainment again with little publicity three or four months before the summer vacation. News and movies that fans care about most.

It didn't cost a penny, and it was on the hot search, making every company in the industry envious.

Many directors choose historical events for their movies, because the real events themselves are widely known, and it is easier for the movie to be understood by most audiences.

Like the novel adaptation, it is also a kind of IP in disguise.

After Feng Xiaogang stopped making comedies that year, he chose two films, "The Tangshan Earthquake" and "[-]", both of which are real events that happened in history, and a considerable part of the audience has some understanding of the events of that year.

It makes it easier for the audience to get involved. Otherwise, instead of filming the Tangshan earthquake and making up an event that did not exist in history, the effect may be different.

Feng Xiaogang, who was busy with his new film, also knew about this, and learned that the government had sent warships to evacuate overseas Chinese.

Feng Xiaogang was filled with emotion, "When I filmed "The Great Earthquake", it was more or less for the promotion of the film, now that Tang An is filming "Operation Red Sea", the same thing happened in reality, this is really good luck! "

Timing, location, and harmony, every factor can have a considerable impact on the film, and these incidents are more useful to "Operation Red Sea" than any publicity method.

When the large-scale discussion started on the Internet, the publicity and marketing department of Hantang Media also quickly seized this opportunity and began to prepare for the next marketing work.

In a few days, a rough plan had been prepared, Tang An also came out of the editing room, and listened to the report from the Publicity and Marketing Department.

Things happened as usual, but Tang An didn't pay special attention in advance. His subordinates would naturally know how to deal with such a big matter.

For the movie, this incident can only be regarded as icing on the cake. After all, whether there is this incident or not, "Operation Red Sea" is bound to succeed, the difference is only the degree of explosion.

After listening to the marketing plans of several departments under the Publicity and Marketing Department, the most important thing is to mobilize the patriotic enthusiasm of the audience and connect the movie with reality.

They are all top-notch marketing talents in the industry, basically there is nothing Tang An wants to add.

After carefully reading their plans, Tang An asked them to prepare separately.

"There is no need to hype it. There are still more than three months before the summer vacation. A little guidance is enough. Pay attention to it."

There is no need to seize a little bit and hype desperately, that would be too much.

One is that it is easy to be disgusted, after all, overseas compatriots are still suffering, and the other is that the enthusiasm of the audience has been exhausted now, and it will be useless by then.

Of course, the most important thing is that Tang An has enough confidence in the movie.

Only when the movie itself is not strong enough, it is necessary to focus on the direction that can be used to promote it desperately.

The reason why Lin Xinru has caught Zhou Jie for more than ten years is because she has no other news to stir up, and this matter can attract the sympathy of the masses, unlike other actors who are easily disgusted by all kinds of hype.

On the Internet, with the passage of time, the country has sent warships to Yemen to evacuate overseas Chinese, and the attention of the matter has also maintained a very high level.

Of course, there was also the discussion of "Operation Red Sea" and the ridicule of Tang An.

The propaganda of the Han and Tang Dynasties also began to guide the public opinion of netizens on the Internet.

However, it is inevitable that some discordant voices will appear.

On Weibo, some are more active, and some are well-known on the Internet, and film critics began to criticize Hantang Media, Tang An, and his "Operation Red Sea".

""Operation Red Sea" started to catch up with the enthusiasm for evacuating overseas Chinese. As expected, I guessed correctly. Tang An is simply insane just to make money!"

"Now domestic war movies can only rely on consuming patriotic feelings? There was "Wolf Warrior" before, and now "Operation Red Sea" is the same!"

"It's sad! By consuming patriotic feelings to fool the audience, when one day this patriotic feeling is consumed, how will Huaguo's war films survive? How can Huaguo's films improve?"

A large number of big Vs and film critics on Weibo began to criticize "Operation Red Sea" for its hype, which was said to be consumption of patriotic feelings, and by the way, domestic war films were also approved.

As far as public knowledge and cents are concerned, patriotism is wrong. Propagating patriotism through novels, film and television dramas is ignorance and brainwashing.

And these people like to appear when there are some hot news, because at this time, more attention can be attracted and the popularity will be higher.

Tang An is the biggest director in the country, and every film is a hot spot of national attention.

Opportunity or no chance, there will always be someone staring at a special book.

Last year, a group of people from "Mystery Superstar" suddenly came out to criticize the three views of the movie. Apart from the opponents in the same period, a considerable part of them were this kind of black people.

Since the establishment of the "Operation Red Sea" project, those people have also focused on this movie.

Movies about domestic wars are filmed like that, and it is inevitable to talk about patriotism, and then we can criticize it again.

But this time those people didn't expect that the evacuation of overseas Chinese also happened in reality, and the climax suddenly occurred.

The remarks at the beginning were not too brain-dead, but the latter ones became more and more ugly.

Yu Pengfei, a well-known Weibo publicist, even wrote directly on Weibo, "Famous directors have made a lot of money for the country!"

"Tang An and Feng Xiaogang are the same people. Feng Xiaogang's "Tangshan Earthquake" made money by consuming the pain of the people. That movie may make the audience cry, but how many people stayed behind during the earthquake five years ago? Watching the rescue in front of the TV, crying like something, is this because the cameramen of CCTV are particularly good at shooting? Is it because the analysis of the disaster under the lens of those reporters directly hits people's hearts?

Of course not, what the audience cried was not how well the videos and movies were shot, but that the catastrophe itself was enough to shake people's hearts. Whether it was shot by Feng Xiaogang or CCTV's photographers, they could all move people.

Back then, Feng Xiaogang made a huge sum of money for the country, which caused the people of the country to immerse themselves in pain again. Now the movie "Operation Red Sea" directed by Tang An happened to have a similar thing happen in reality, and a large number of sailors began to publicize it on the Internet. , This approach is not making the country rich.

Our compatriots are still suffering overseas, and their lives are in danger all the time. They are suffering every second, but at home, some of us are using them as hype tools, just thinking about increasing the popularity of the movie , so as to consume another wave of audience's patriotic feelings and make a fortune in national calamity!
