Chapter 1518: November

On November 1st, although it was Tuesday, "Daughter of Little God" was released.
After all, an ordinary literary movie does not require any weekend schedule.
But there should be no shortage of propaganda for "Daughter of Little God".
It is the second movie directed by Tang Shuxuan, president of Kirin Group North America Branch, and the female protagonist is still the boss's woman and the future boss.
Therefore, the advertising department boldly took out 30 million US dollars for publicity, and the advertisements were overwhelming.
You know, the filming cost of "Daughter of the Little God" is only 12 million US dollars, and the biggest expense is the film reward of the actor Oscar-winning Robert De Niro-5 million dollars.
The cost of advertising is almost three times the cost of shooting.
Tang Shuxuan and Lin Qingxia both have Oscar blessings, and the time has not passed in the past year, and everyone still has an impression of them.
Coupled with the presence of Robert De Niro, the average attendance of the 1500 screening rooms on the day of the premiere reached 75%, which is a very good result.
"Daughter of Little God" is a literary film, so the goal at the beginning is very clear, that is, fans who like literary films.
With targeted publicity, people who like to watch this kind of movie go to watch it the first time.
After the results came out, their response was very good.
According to the data given by the consulting company, the average score of the first lottery audience reached the A level, which is beyond imagination.
This is true for ordinary people, and so are film critics.
Roger Albert, who has "two thumbs", gave his highest rating with enthusiastic comments on his "Chicago Sun" comment column.
"I am a fan of Robert De Niro, but I like" Daughter of the Little God ", but because of its story, because of the wonderful performances of Robert and Bridget ... This is the greatest power of the movie itself, it uses the story to make We are moved, not those messy piles!
Listen to me! Whether you like art movies or not, you must watch this "Daughter of a Little God", it will make you like it and will make you moved! I guarantee with my two thumbs, you will not be disappointed! "
At the end of the comment, Roger Albert's two thumbs signs are very conspicuous.
Roger Albert is the most famous film reviewer in the United States. People watch the evaluation of a movie. The most common thing is to find Roger Albert's article, because it is the closest to the average audience.
Of course, he would often charge a small amount of pen-writing fees, but Roger Albert had his own balance.
He can let go of some movies with 50-60 points, or even slightly improve their grade, but for the best and worst, he will never change his evaluation.
The evaluation of the two thumbs is at least 90% true.
Because Roger Albert knows that what he can stand for is fairness and justice. If this is lost, any evaluation will be based on how much money is given, and the audience will abandon themselves in a short time.
At that time, not only did you not receive the pen-writing fee, but your reputation and roots on which you lived were gone.
So, this time, "Daughter of the Little God", although he had previously given him a fee of 100,000 US dollars for writing, but if it does not work, even if there is Robert De Niro, at most Roger Albert will only give one Just a thumb.
But Roger Albert directly gave two thumbs up, and he was so generous in praise. Naturally, he was also really optimistic about "The Daughter of the Little God".
Disney ’s public relations fee for this time has given film critics more than 3 million US dollars, involving more than sixty film critics, large and small, and they are all people who have their own film review columns in major newspapers. This is equivalent to I bought an advertisement in the newspaper, but it was also the best use.
Before there was no Internet, paper media was always the most important place for Europeans and Americans to obtain news and information.
These film critics have a certain fan base, that is, they have a certain degree of credibility.
Although they may not be right every time, they can still affect many fans in general.
Under the two-pronged approach, the box office of "Daughter of the Little God" passed US $ 30 million in the first week. As a medium-produced feature film, it is already a very good result.
Although there is no big box office, but since the word of mouth has gone well, it is expected that after 8 weeks of large-scale screenings, the total box office of 120 million US dollars will be no problem.
It was released almost at the same time as "Daughter of the Little God", and there was another movie from Lianyi Film Company.
It's "The Chainsaw 2".
Because North America has always been the home base of the horror film plasma film, and has the first super amazing, the announcement of "The Chainsaw 2" cost only 10 million US dollars, which made the horror fans all over the United States. Hope.
What's more, it hasn't been released yet, and the share contracts in Australia, Japan, South Korea, and Europe have been signed.
Originally, if sold out directly, the overseas copyright income of "The Chainsaw 2" could reach 60 million US dollars-equivalent to about 200 million US dollars at the box office.
But Lianyi Film Company directly refused.
Backing against the Kirin Group, what they care about now is not short-term benefits.
If you sell the copyright, the only thing you can harvest is money.
If you choose the theater line to release, then a long-term, a stable channel of cooperation will be formed, these movie theaters will become part of the global cinema line of the Kirin Group.
It can't be said that every movie can be shown in these colleges, but at least it has a strong influence and has a better chance than others.
The script of "The Chainsaw 2" has been polished by Yin Jun, the original content has been upgraded, and Yu Yunkang's natural horror film director ability has been added, so it is very eye-catching.
During the horror month of November, 3 days on the weekend, "The Chainsaw 2" received a total of 46 million dollars at the box office.
Waiting for the second week, it burst another 43 million US dollars at the box office, and in two weeks it was close to 90 million US dollars at the box office!
And even if the announcement fee is added, the cost of "The Chainsaw 2" is only 25 million US dollars, which means that it will pay back in two weeks.
Taking into account the interest groups abroad, and considering the strength of such niche films in terms of video tapes, the "Hollywood Times" directly set a total profit forecast of $ 200 million for "The Chainsaw 2".
If "The Chainsaw" can be filmed in 5, it will generate an industry chain of USD 5 billion as a whole, which will promote the development and harvest of all aspects.
Seeing this number, the Hollywood giants are simply coveted, hoping that they will immediately launch a horror film project like this.
Not to mention much, even if one can make 50 million dollars, it is still good.
It is a pity that in the past year, they have made many films after imitating "The Saw of Chainsaw", but the more than 20 horror films released, except for two small profits of more than 10 million, most of the rest He didn't even save it.
If it were not for the protection of the long-term profits of the video tape market, I am afraid that many companies would have to fall into serious losses.
But they couldn't help it. They wanted to attract Yu Yunkang and Chen Xunqi together to help them make a horror movie, but they refused to think about it.
Think about it too. They are all the people Yin Jun brought from Xiangjiang, and Yin Jun pulled them out by hand. Where could it be so easy to be dug.
Now the second part of "The Saw of Chainsaw" comes out, and the box office word of mouth has exploded, and Hollywood giants can't help but think again.
This time, let's not talk about digging corners, just open conditional cooperation, first a movie, is that all right?
However, when they wanted to find someone, they couldn't find anyone.
It was only after careful inquiry that they pulled the team and kept filming outside.
It is not the second season of "X-Files", because the second season of "X-Files" has already begun to air.
Well, the ratings are just as good. It bursts out as soon as it comes out, and there is no urine at all.
With the blessing of this divine drama, the Hollywood giants are increasingly eager to find their minds.
The film made by Yu Yunkang and Chen Xunqi is of course "Sixth Sense of Soul".
In addition to the little boy played by Gu Tianle, the protagonist boldly chose Darth Hoffman, and the heroine chose Phoebe Katz in "Mother and Daughter".
The reason is very simple, because she has half of Chinese descent and is an actor who has worked with Kirin Group before, so it is cheaper for her.
Gu Tianle has spent almost half a year in the United States. He has been learning English and adapting to the environment.
Dasding Hoffman, a professional actor, after getting the script, in addition to trying to figure out the role, simply brought Gu Tianle to himself, wandering all day and night to cultivate tacit understanding.
When the filming officially started, Gu Tianle not only spoke fluent English, but also had a beautiful American style in his manners, but gave Yu Yunkang and Chen Xunqi surprises.
The little male protagonist of this movie is the set American boy. If there is no such momentum, then there is a bit of drama.
But to say so, the shooting process is still not smooth.
Rao Shi Gu Tianle has been filming TV dramas in Xiangjiang for more than a year. Rao Shi Da Siding Hoffman has discussed with him a lot of plots in advance ~ EbookFREE.me ~ gave him a lot of advice, but In the real shooting process, Gu Tianle still often cannot enter the state.
Movie art is a very serious matter.
Even the kind of urine movie in Xiangjiang has a strong expressive power in it-if you really think it is a mess, it is really wrong! At least in the 80s and 90s, and urine movies are much higher! Only after 2010 will the Xiangjiang movie be classified as a real movie.
A complete story, even a life, must be concentrated in 90-120 minutes, but it is not an easy task.
Some directors chose to confuse them all, so they threw the streets.
Some directors are able to talk about it, and appreciate the elegance and vulgarity, so they become masters.
"Sixth Sense of Insanity" is an essentially story about the mind and philosophy, but it seems to people that it is slightly strange and sentimental and full of emotion.
It is not easy to express the artistic conception in the story perfectly.
Even Darth Hoffman made no fewer than ten calls to Yin Jun to discuss the character's mentality.
This is true even for this Oscar-winning actor, not to mention other actors.
Therefore, Yu Yunkang and Chen Xunqi were not easy to shoot. After three consecutive months of filming, they were not completed. The hope that they would be released in February or so was completely shattered.
In this state of anxiety, not to mention asking them to make new movies, even if their family members want to find them, they don't want to bother.
After all, the more they shoot, the more they can feel the charm of "Sixth Sense of Insanity".
If it's done, maybe Oscar will go away!
