Chapter 585: Chen Feng is on the street
In the blink of an eye, it's almost October.
Since the last time he had a relationship with Brian, Chen Feng really gave up the idea of filming "Avatar" for the time being, and the time is not yet ripe, so wait.
However, Chen Feng is not idle, although the movie cannot be made for the time being, but books, comics, and animation works about "Avatar" can be developed in advance.
If you can hype up the IP of "Avatar" first, it will be easier to promote and market when you make movies in the future.
Caron naturally agreed to do this, because if the books, comics, anime and other works of "Avatar" are adapted, he can continue to get a part of the copyright shares, which is a good thing for him.
Moreover, he also hopes that more people will see his works as soon as possible and enjoy the fantastic alien civilization world with him.
As a result, under the leadership of Ping An Investment Company, a series of comics and animation works about "Avatar" began to be officially put into production.
Although Ping An Investment used to mainly invest in film projects, with its huge influence in the film industry and strong financial support, the comic publishing and animation production of "Avatar" are also going smoothly.
Originally, Caron had already refined his work very well, and now it is published in the Chinese-speaking market, and his main work is translation and production.
Moreover, the first "Avatar" comic is not very long, and many complex settings are simplified, which increases the interest of the story, and some language description styles are also adapted to be closer to Chinese expressions, which is more conducive to the spread of the work.
……
Just when the "Avatar" comic works were ready to be produced and published, on October 1, the eleventh file was officially opened.
This time, the eleventh gear can be described as a blockbuster gathering, and many big-budget works are selected in this time period.
Moreover, the classification of film themes in this schedule is very complex, and there are various types of films.
There are star-studded comedies, action martial arts films, suspense films adapted from the works of master mystery masters, romance films, and science fiction films.
Among them, "The Moon" invested by Chen Feng was also released as scheduled.
The film "Moon" was shot very well, Chen Feng and An Ruohua had already seen the finished film, and were very satisfied with the finished film, and then allocated a special amount of funds for marketing and promotion.
Li Dingan and Zhao Xiaoxiao are also full of confidence in this film, after all, this film has cost them too much effort.
It's a pity...... The reality is not as rosy as it seems.
After the release of "Moon", the box office performance was not too outstanding, but it barely ranked at the bottom of the second echelon.
In the first echelon, there is a comedy and a romance film, with a single-day box office of more than 150 million, or even close to 200 million.
There are three remaining films in the second echelon, with a single-day box office of about 50 million to 100 million, and "Moon" is ranked last, only more than 64 million!
In the box office of the remaining few movies, it is rare to have more than 30 million.
Such box office results actually shocked many people's eyes.
Because when "Moon" was vigorously promoted and marketed, many people also knew that this film was invested by Chen Feng.
Since it is a film invested by Chen Feng, the box office results will definitely not be bad!
So many people predict that Chen Feng may win the eleventh box office champion again this time.
But after the film was released, the result was not as everyone expected.
The results of "Moon" are not very outstanding, and even by Chen Feng's standards, it can be said to be very poor.
After all, the single-day box office is only more than 60 million, which is not at all.
In the past, Chen Feng's films, except for "Shark Beach", the general box office results of others will be very high, breaking 100 million, or even breaking 200 million, it is not a problem.
But the current "Moon" is only 60 million, and the gap is too big.
In addition to being surprised, many people also ran to watch the movie "Moon", and everyone wanted to know what the film was about.
However, after watching "The Moon", these people were silent again.
Although the box office results are not very good, to tell the truth...... the film "Moon" is very good!
In the film, the reaction to the problem of human cloning, the contrast to the atmosphere of loneliness, the delicate portrayal of the characters' hearts, and the relationship between clones and robots are all very profound.
Although the tone of the whole movie is a little dark and depressing, if you watch this movie seriously, you will definitely feel a little shocked.
This film is the kind of genre that requires a certain amount of precipitation and thinking to like it, not a pure commercial film.
……
However, this is also the reason why this film has failed somewhat in the film market.
After all, movie fans go to the theater to watch movies, the main purpose is to entertain and relax, and people who like to watch such heavy and in-depth films are a minority after all.
Therefore, the final result is that the box office performance of "Moon" is not very good.
The single-day box office results are more than 60 million...... In fact, it is relatively good, and if it is a movie invested by others, it may be praised by many people.
But because the investor of this film is Chen Feng, many people feel different.
Some chose to remain silent and avoided the issue.
Some people chose to help Chen Feng speak, after all, the quality of the film "Moon" is very good, but it is not suitable for the market.
Of course, there are more people who are directly happy.
"Hahaha, this guy Chen Feng has finally hit the street!"
A person who has been successful suddenly stumbles, which is something that most losers like to hear.
Who has made you successful all the time, who has made you always excellent? Hahaha, now you are falling on your heels, now you are like us ordinary people, right?
In this case, who do not mock you mock?
That's the mindset of most people.
Even in fact, a long time ago, many people have been secretly looking forward to the day when Chen Feng fell.
No way, sometimes people's hearts are so sinister.
Fortunately, in the face of those who mocked him, Chen Feng himself was not very angry.
Moreover, even if the box office of "Moon" is not very high, the daily box office of 60 million can make a lot of money as long as it is maintained for a few days.
Although it doesn't make as much money as the movies he made before, at least it won't lose money.
Those who are now ridiculing Chen Feng may not know how much the investment cost of "Moon" is, and what the possible box office profit is.
They are just stupid abuse, just to vent their negative emotions.
Therefore, Chen Feng didn't care about their ridicule and abuse, and even felt that those people were a little pitiful.
