Chapter 445: I hope they can keep up with their footsteps
As soon as the box office of "Transformers" came out on the first day, Zhang Pu's international entry was half the success.
Of course, that's half the battle, that's a humble statement.
In China, some advertising posters of some third-tier stars dare to play the title of "international superstar", and "Transformers" has won the single-day box office championship on the first day in many countries and regions around the world.
Even if it is only the box office on the first day, everyone can see that Zhang Pu's entry into the international market has been successful.
The question now is just how successful it will be.
"Jurassic Park" allowed Oriental DreamWorks to step into the international market and completely started the prelude to Chinese films going international, and "Transformers" made this step "down-to-earth".
As for the previous films such as "Jumanji", in the eyes of many "experts", it is nothing more than a temptation.
""Transformers" is a big hit, and Oriental DreamWorks can be regarded as opening the door to the international film market. Ma Jun, the boss of Light and Shadow Entertainment, said with some sighs.
He has a lot of industries, and Light and Shadow Entertainment is just one of them.
And it's not his most lucrative industry.
However, Oriental DreamWorks made too much money, which made him see the potential of making money in the film and television industry, and in the past two years, he has increased his investment in this area and spent some more energy.
It's just not ideal.
The entire film and television industry seems to be in the shadow of Oriental DreamWorks.
"I feel like Oriental DreamWorks or Zhang Pu is laying out a big picture. Huang Cheng said, "Once this game is successful, Oriental DreamWorks may be able to compete with Hollywood's top film and television companies." ”
The momentum of Oriental DreamWorks is too strong, and people from other film and television companies have a faint tendency to unite, and there are more times to meet for tea and chat.
"The global popularity of "Jurassic Park" and "Transformers", from another point of view, has also opened up the popularity of Chinese films in the world. Tong Dong, the owner of Sino-Swiss Films, said, "This makes it much easier for Chinese films to be distributed abroad." ”
foreign markets, who are not hot.
Zhang Pu's film became popular abroad, and it is not all bad for them.
"Oriental DreamWorks has produced several high-quality blockbusters in a row, which has raised the tastes of domestic fans a lot!" said Liu Hongbin, the owner of Guangyun Film and Television.
Don't think about foreign countries, let's take care of domestic first.
The taste of movie fans is obviously not a good thing for other film and television companies. In the past, fans thought that the films were amazing, but after the taste changed, I am afraid that it will feel like that.
Oriental DreamWorks blockbusters are one after another, with extremely high quality and recognized by fans.
But what about their company's films?
One trade-off!
"The movies that I used to think were good are now criticized by fans as online movies. Huang Cheng shook his head and said, "I have to admit that Oriental DreamWorks has done ...... in this regard."
It's all tears!
In the past, you could make money by making any film, but now it's too difficult.
Fans are demanding more and more from the quality of the film.
And the culprit is Oriental DreamWorks.
What can you say about this? Do you want people not to make films of such high quality?
That's obviously not possible.
Online movies can't be released in theaters at all.
However, some online movies are still of high quality.
There are actually a lot of movies in Oriental DreamWorks, but if the quality is not up to standard, then basically go directly to the video website.
There are gains and losses!
In this way, maintaining the high-quality reputation of Oriental DreamWorks will not cause any loss.
And Oriental DreamWorks is doing this, and the impact on other film and television companies is invisible and huge.
The movies released in their company's theaters were found by fans to be inferior to Oriental DreamWorks' online movies, so what will fans think?
"People look at the world, we look at the country. Ma Jun shook his head and said.
The others were a little embarrassed, but they couldn't refute it.
If it weren't for the strong rise of Oriental DreamWorks, they would still be fighting in China.
In the early stage of Oriental DreamWorks, they also made Bangzi, especially Orange Entertainment, which was a bayonet with Oriental DreamWorks.
However, after the development of Oriental Dreamworks, it set its sights on the international world and paid little attention to them.
And Huang Cheng and the others naturally won't be bored.
The main thing is that it was planted too hard, and I was a little scared.
In this way, each other is at peace.
They are all bosses of several major domestic film and television companies, and when they get together, they are naturally not to discuss how Oriental DreamWorks is, but to prepare to join forces to do a vote.
"Orange Entertainment, Sino-Swiss Pictures, Guangyun Film and Television, and Light and Shadow Entertainment have joined forces to prepare to shoot a big-budget film. Jiang Xingwen said to Zhang Pu with a smile.
On the second day of its release, "Transformers" had an amazing box office.
The domestic box office broke one billion without any suspense.
The prediction of this film given on the Internet is as high as 5 billion, although it did not break the box office record of "Wolf Warrior 2", it is quite amazing.
Abroad, most countries and regions continue to win the single-day box office champion.
Of course, the most gratifying thing is the North American box office.
Although he did not counterattack to become the single-day box office champion, the single-day box office broke 40 million, and it was only one step away from the single-day box office champion.
If nothing else, Ming'er will be able to rush to the top of the single-day box office list in North America.
"They jointly invested in the production of a blockbuster?" Zhang Pu looked at Jiang Xingwen with some surprise.
These four film and television companies are the four top film and television companies in China before, although they are now pressed by Oriental DreamWorks, but the background is still very deep.
Invest in the production of a blockbuster, and still need four joints?
"The investment cost is said to be more than one billion. Jiang Xingwen said, "It is estimated that it is to share the risk, and it is also to solve some turbulence in the stock market." ”
Oriental DreamWorks is too amazing, and naturally sets off other film and television companies as a bit "useless".
Nowadays, the number of listed film and television companies has increased a lot.
But the biggest impact is still the former four major film and television companies such as Orange Entertainment.
Oriental DreamWorks blockbusters are continuous, and they don't even have blockbusters that they can handle.
This inevitably leads to suspicion that the name of a large company is not worthy of its name.
If this kind of doubt is too big, it will still have a great impact on their company.
After all, it is a public company.
"A billion investment, the risk is indeed very high. Zhang Pu nodded and said, "Who directs Feng Jiashan?"
Among the four old film and television companies, Orange Entertainment is the strongest.
And Feng Jiashan is the leading director of Orange Entertainment, although now that the director of Oriental DreamWorks is rising, he is not as famous as he was back then. However, there are still three or two nails left in the broken ship.
Feng Jiashan's movies in recent years, even if they are not so amazing, are still good.
The leading directors of other companies want to compete with him, and it is really difficult.
"Zhang Ke!" Jiang Xingwen said.
"They made a wise decision. Zhang Pu was stunned for a moment, and then said.
Among the Chinese film directors, there are not many who are internationally renowned, and Zhang Ke is definitely one of them.
And he still has a good box office appeal in North America and other places.
He has several films, and the box office abroad is good.
In addition, he has directed joint venture films and has a certain understanding of the international market.
He is more suitable than Feng Jiashan and others.
"With an investment of one billion, if the foreign box office is not ideal, there is a great possibility of losing money. Jiang Xingwen said.
Going international sounds like a bull's fork, but it's actually that easy to do.
Oriental DreamWorks has come to this point, and it has been accumulated step by step.
"I want them to succeed. Zhang Pu said with a smile.
When Jiang Xingwen heard this, he was stunned for a moment, but then he understood.
The internationalization of Chinese films is undoubtedly beneficial to all Chinese filmmakers.
Zhang Pu is not afraid of their success, and even hopes that they will succeed, perhaps for this reason, but I am more afraid that he is still full of confidence in himself.
No matter how successful they were, they couldn't surpass him.
He only hoped they could keep up with him.
If domestic filmmakers don't have a global perspective, they will indeed be unable to keep up with Zhang Pu's footsteps.
On the way forward, if you are alone, it will be too boring.
While "Transformers" swept the global box office, film and television peripherals also sold well around the world.
"Transformers" became the world's best-selling toy.
Perhaps, the film and television peripheral profits of this film are no worse than the box office.
The film is on fire, a global fire.
And about the advertising placement in the movie, it has also been discussed by many people.
Among them, car brands are the most.
The car brands that were implanted in it have all skyrocketed in sales around the world.
Especially the same style of "Bumblebee", which is even more amazing.
There is no doubt that although the price of this ad placement is expensive, it is worth it.
You get what you pay for.
Before the second part is in the shadow, many car brands have begun to contact Oriental DreamWorks to win the second part of the advertisement.
One of the most sought-after is undoubtedly the protagonist's car "Bumblebee".
In addition, the advertising placement around film and television has also been targeted by countless car brands.
These are undoubtedly excellent things for Oriental DreamWorks.
The movie is so popular, some people are happy and some are worried, and some people feel that Mount Tai is overwhelming and the pressure is great.
Jiang Bin, the director who was handpicked by Zhang Pu to direct the "Transformers" series, has no bottom in his heart at this time.
"Confidence hit?"
Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, after Jiang Bin participated in the premiere of "Transformers", he lost his mind from time to time, and when he heard that the film exploded at the box office worldwide, this situation was even more serious.
There was a little more panic in the distraction.
How could Jiang Yun not be able to guess the reason.
"Sort of. Jiang Bin nodded and said.
In front of his father, Jiang Bin has nothing to hide. Zhang Pu, the first jade bead, wants to make a breakthrough, he has no confidence at all.
"I regret that I didn't follow up on the post-production of this film in the first place. Jiang Bin continued.
After the movie was filmed, Jiang Bin couldn't wait to prepare for the filming of "Resident Evil". He didn't expect that the post-production of the film would be like this.
If he was asked to do it, he knew he couldn't do it that well.
This is one reason why his self-confidence has been hit.
