July has entered the summer season.

Chen Hao's new film, Sun Dahe's new film, Zhang Huawei, Wang Mu and other directors' new films...... These are all released in turn.

In just over half a month, more than 4 blockbusters with a production cost of more than 100 million have been released.

In the next 40 days, there are no less than 10 such big-budget movies to be released.

Even the five famous directors, the seven major actors, and the four major actresses have to deal with it carefully, let alone other directors and actors.

Movies that feel a little worse about themselves don't have the courage to be released during this time period.

After more than ten years of low tide, Huaguo's film market has entered a recovery since 2012, and it has become more and more vigorous in recent years.

In the past, everyone had to cheer if there was a movie with a box office of more than 100 million, but now that the box office is less than 300 million, it can't be regarded as a blockbuster movie.

Especially after the release of "The Gift of Room No. 7" in October last year, the domestic box office reached 850 million yuan, which set a shocking record.

It is 50 million higher than Chen Hao's "Death Trap", which was originally the first place.

Of course, in terms of absolute value, the 800 million of "Death Trap", which was released in 12 years, will definitely be worth more than the 850 million of "The Gift of Room No. 7" 3 years later.

But if you look at the category of movies, one is a popular action film joined by an actor and directed by the great director Wang Mu himself, and the other is a literary film, the director and actor cannot be said to be passers-by, but they are definitely not first-class, in fact, the actors are not even second-rate.

But people just hit such a shocking box office, and they also won countless awards all over the world, this is where the cowhide of "The Gift of Room No. 7" comes in.

This year, Chen Hao's new film "Operation Condor", directed and acted by Chen Hao, hit the box office of 250 million yuan in three days on the first weekend of the first week, directly breaking the box office of 205 million yuan in the first weekend of "The Gift of Room No. 7" in October last year.

This made Chen Hao raise his eyebrows very much.

To tell the truth, he, an international superstar, was actually broken by a literary film to break the box office throne, and he was really a little unwilling.

Now that he has been working on "Operation Condor" for 1 year, he has finally had the momentum to get back the first place, why do you think he is unhappy?

It is one thing for him to like and appreciate "The Gift of Room No. 7", and it is another thing to pursue the corresponding grades and reputation, and it does not hinder it.

The film market is so hot, and the summer TV drama market is also very interesting.

"'Yue Prison' is a very strange and excellent TV series. ”

This is a very authoritative comment from a big man in the TV industry.

Why?

The first season of "Yue Prison" will be broadcast from July 1.

Its first few episodes are incomprehensible, from the 150 million people watching the first episode, to the third episode, it plummeted directly to more than 70 million, and it was cut in half.

But after the seventh episode, this number has been rising.

By the twelfth episode, the number of simultaneous viewers had reached 150 million, surpassing the initial results.

In the twenty-third episode, the number of viewers broke through 220 million, approaching the strongest record in the history of 320 million viewers in the finale of "Huanzhu Gege".

It stands to reason that a TV series with such good results should be directly evaluated as "excellent", how can a "very strange" modifier be added in front of "excellent"?

You may not believe it.

Because this is a TV series where flowers bloom inside the walls and fragrance outside the walls.

After the seventh episode dropped to 60 million viewers, the viewership of "Yue Prison" continued to rise.

But if you look closely at the data, you will find that the growth is the foreign audience.

The first to bear the brunt is Japan and South Korea, this kind of CULT film is very suitable for their taste, after all, the category of horror films is still very popular in these two countries.

After watching a few more episodes and seeing the taste, the number of viewers from Japan and South Korea has risen from more than 2 million to more than 8 million, and even 20 million for 23 episodes!

You know, the total population of the two countries is only 200 million!

Almost one-tenth of the people have watched "Yue Prison", so you can say that this TV series is not popular!

However, neither Japan nor South Korea is the most watched.

Europe and the United States are the big ones.

The number of viewers in Europe, the United States, including South America, has also skyrocketed from more than 1 million to 10 million, 30 million, and 50 million...... In twenty-three episodes, it skyrocketed to 120 million people!

The number of viewers in other Southeast Asian countries has also reached about 20 million.

Look.

The data of 220 million people watching 23 episodes online at the same time is so awesome!?

But with such a high figure, 160 million people are from overseas, and the number of people who like to watch "Yue Prison" in China is only 60 million.

A TV series has been watched by 60 million people, and the results are already good, but if you compare it with the 160 million foreign viewers, it is several grades worse.

FOREIGNERS DON'T JUST LIKE TO WATCH, THEY ARE ALSO MAKING CRAZY CALLS AND DISCUSSING ENTHUSIASTICALLY.

Every day, there are thousands of discussions in these foreign language areas, and there are more than thousands of main posts, not to mention the discussion with the posts.

They quickly crushed other programs and TV series discussion areas on Shanhai.com, and became the most popular existence.

The key people's comments are still similar, and there are a lot of English words in a dozen, and you can show sincerity just by looking at the number of words.

On foreign social networking sites, I don't know how many big names are crazy to recommend to people, which makes Chinese people even more dumbfounded.

"I strongly recommend that you go to watch a TV series produced by the Chinese people - "Yue Prison"! It is much better than the TV series of the Chinese people, it is not good to see that you come to my house to scold me and spit on me!"

"I have to say that this "Yue Prison" made me see a strong taste of excellent TV dramas in the United States, and it easily made me forget that I was watching a foreign TV series dubbed in English!"

Its rating has reached 8.7 points! It has knocked down the TV series produced by our own country this year, but you must not say that this is a score!"

"I just think it's better if it is replaced by a star from our country...... But now it's been very good, and it's successfully cured my face blindness of Asians. ”

"A Chinese video website can actually come up with such a sincere and useful TV series, European and American TV drama producers, you must not be blind and arrogant anymore, the wolf is coming!!"

“......”

With the better and better reviews, with the increasing number of audiences in Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, the performance reflected in advertising revenue is obvious.

After 17 episodes were broadcast, when the number of viewers in Europe and the United States exceeded 100 million for the first time, 7 advertising companies from Europe, America, Japan and South Korea came and bought the advertising space of the remaining 13 episodes at a total price of 30 million US dollars.

With this income alone, Shanhai.com has been able to break even on the buyout and rewards of "Yue Prison".

Coupled with the rapid increase in VIP users in Europe and the United States, the number of users has skyrocketed by 4 million in just ten days, reaching 47 million, and this income is also very objective.

You must know that the standard set by Princess Celestia for foreign users is not 180 yuan, but 50 US dollars, which is 350 yuan, which is almost doubled.

The salary standard of foreigners has surpassed that of Huaguo, and the eldest princess can really do things like taking care of her own people and robbing the rich and helping the poor.

Such an income of 20 million US dollars will increase the profit of Shanhai Network by more than 100 million.

Not to mention that there are still 7 episodes of "Yue Prison" that have not been broadcast.

According to the preview, in addition to the main drama, there are up to 20 hours of various tidbits and various deleted content, which will be released on the VIP page, and ordinary people can't watch it.

Once this last high dynasty is broadcast, it is appropriate for the VIP users to break through to 50 million.

The income of VIP users is a piece, which expands the channels in Europe and the United States, so that they know and like Shanhai.com more, such a user resource, it is not a three or five billion dollars can be said clearly.

If Shanhai Online is listed now, most of them will have to increase the valuation by another $10 billion!

In the face of the madness of foreign TV drama fans, many Chinese viewers find it incredible.

Originally, some people were sneering, saying that Chu Liuxiang's popularity had finally dissipated, and once his accumulation over the years disappeared, then naturally his level would decline.

For example, this is the case with "Yue Prison".

It's too jerky and depressing, and there are dark main colors, which make people feel uncomfortable and don't like it that much.

The result?

Now the foreign audience has slapped this group of people in the face with facts!

It's not that the TV series is bad at all, it's just that you people don't know how to appreciate it!

can make the number of foreign followers firmly move towards 200 million, which is really not something that can be summed up by any luck!

The TV series filmed by Huaguo are not liked much by Chinese people, but foreigners like it.

Such a popularity is described as a "very strange and excellent TV series", but it is also very appropriate!
