Chapter 123: Press Conference
The hot release of "Jurassic World" has also triggered the hot sale of related books.
In a library in Beijing, a young man in his twenties, after reading "Jurassic World", became very interested in dinosaurs, so he came to the bookstore to buy related books.
"Hello, is there a book called Dinosaurs?" the young man asked the administrator.
"Hello, not at the moment. "The caretaker replied very politely.
"What do you mean there are no more, then when do you have them? Why don't you even have books in such a big bookstore?" the young man asked speechlessly.
"That's right, I couldn't sell a single book a week like this, and recently you know that the movie "Jurassic World" was a hit, so there are too many people who want to know about dinosaurs, and there were many books like this, but they were all sold out. The bookstore administrator smiled wryly.
"When will it be?" asked the young man.
"It's in an urgent stocking right now, so you'll definitely be coming back in three days. The administrator replied.
"Okay, come back then, and remember to keep me a copy!" said the young man, and walked out of the store depressed.
Since watching "Jurassic World", I have been very fascinated by this prehistoric monster, and as a result, I went to several bookstores but did not buy it.
Who would have thought that just because a movie was released, books about dinosaurs would be out of stock! You really ignored it a few days ago, and a few days later it flew up to the branch as a phoenix, and it was so difficult to sell it again.
As soon as the young man went out, he saw a reporter chattering outside the door.
"Ladies and gentlemen, now Xiaofang is outside the door of a large bookstore in our city, recently with the release of the famous director Chen Yongren's blockbuster "Jurassic World", not only the box office explosion has caused a great sensation, but also made countless people have a great interest in dinosaurs, all kinds of books about dinosaurs have been out of stock, now we interview into this bookstore to find out about the specific situation!"
In this way, the reporter went in directly, and when the young man saw it, he also went in to watch the excitement.
"Hello, are you the administrator of this bookstore?" the reporter raised the microphone and came to the administrator's side.
The administrator looked a little excited, what kind of wind blew the reporter here, and said slightly nervously: "Yes, my name is Wang Hai, and I am the administrator of this bookstore." ”
"Hello Mr. Wang, interview, has your bookstore encountered such a situation recently, that is, with the release of "Jurassic World", many fans are very keen on dinosaur books?" the reporter asked.
Wang Hai replied excitedly: "Yes, and there are a lot of books, which no one cared about before, but now they are all sold out, just because of the movie "Jurassic World", which has driven the hot sale of books about dinosaurs. ”
The reporter then turned to the camera and said: "It can be seen from the interview just now that because of the release of "Jurassic World", fans are particularly fond of books related to dinosaurs!"
The administrator saw that the young man who had just bought the book next to him had not left, so he told the reporter: "He is here to buy books." ”
The reporter didn't expect that there would be an accident, and said to the young man: "Is this gentleman also here to buy books?"
Originally, he just wanted to see the excitement and left, but he didn't expect to have his own business, so he replied: "Uh, yes, I just watched "Jurassic World", so I became curious about dinosaurs, so I thought about coming to the bookstore to buy a book related to dinosaurs. But unfortunately, I was still late and sold out. ”
"Okay, thank you, gentleman, for the interview. The reporter replied, then turned to the camera and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, you can see from here how much impact the release of "Jurassic World" has, with the development of time, dinosaurs, an ancient creature hundreds of millions of years ago, will be paid more and more attention to —— reporter Xiaofang of this station reports for you." ”
……………
As "Jurassic World" continues to be popular, such a situation is staged in bookstores large and small all over the world.
On TV, in addition to various experts' various analyses of "Jurassic World", some paleontologists were also invited to analyze the types of dinosaurs and explore the reasons for the extinction of dinosaurs.
Many scholars who have studied for most of their lives are also confused, and they have studied things that no one cares about for so many years, just because of the release of a movie, they became popular, no one cared about it before, and now countless TV stations and newspapers are waving banknotes to interview them!
Due to the particularity of the industry, people engaged in paleontology research are very rare, and the paleontology major may only recruit a student in a few years, which also makes the people engaged in this career feel encouraged, and also makes this major a popular major, many candidates have begun to carry out various consultations, but there are very few schools that open this major, so the previous unpopular major has now become a super popular major.
This is something that countless people have not thought of!

On Beijing Satellite TV, on a program, an old professor who studies dinosaurs said to the camera: "In the face of the sudden popularity, we are very grateful to director Chen Yongren, it is his movies that have set off a dinosaur fever in the world, so that everyone can pay attention to dinosaurs and understand them, which is a great blessing for those of us who have studied dinosaurs for most of our lives!"
This kind of creature that once dominated the world for hundreds of millions of years is very worthy of everyone's understanding, take us humans as an example, there is a record of tens of thousands of years of death, but compared with this behemoth, it is really insignificant!
I also went to the cinema to watch the movie "Jurassic World", I think it's not right to use data to refute some clips in the movie at every turn, the movie is meant to entertain the public, so it is too rational and distorted, what we should really do is to understand and study in reality........."
Subsequently, the old professor talked about the research results of these years, and the audience also listened to it with interest.
………
A week after its release, the box office of "Jurassic World" in the first week also became the focus of attention of fans around the world!
After the official got the data, it was announced as soon as possible, and after a group of netizens saw this number, they also took a breath!
"Jurassic World" worldwide, the box office in the first week totaled $1.453 billion! "Avatar" also won $1.37 billion!
Both movies have become the fastest films to break a billion dollars, although netizens and fans are divided into two camps during this time, but it has not affected the box office sales of the two movies at all!
And "Jurassic World" has broken a lot of records for a week after its release, and countless media have exclaimed that Chen Yongren is an 'alien', which is too fierce!
China's famous director Chen Yongren has devoted himself to producing the sci-fi blockbuster "Jurassic World", which has been favored by fans all over the world in the past week since its release, with a total box office of $1.453 billion in the first week! Almost all records in film history have been swept away!"
"The box office in the first week was cut at $1.453 billion, "Jurassic World" is even more fierce than expected, according to reliable statistics, the box office this week is still very impressive!
…………
Two weeks went by in a blink of an eye!
The phenomenon of different opinions and hundreds of schools of thought contending is not only in China, the effect caused by the two movies is the same in the world!
Of course, the main reason is the box office, to put it bluntly, it is money stimulation!
"Avatar" has a total box office of $2.205 billion in the two weeks after its release! There is always a feeling that "Avatar" is not very popular in the market, after all, everyone always pays attention to the first, who cares who you are second.
So after the data came out, many people were surprised, but they didn't expect the box office of "Avatar" to be quite fierce, and the box office of "Jurassic World" hit a total of $2.427 billion worldwide in two weeks, and "Avatar" was hopeless!
And the agency predicts that both films will break the record of "Iron Man" at the final box office, and perhaps the first three-billion dollar club movie is about to be born!
In the face of these two movies sweeping the world, not to mention the abused movies from various countries during this period is very uncomfortable, just seeing this box office makes everyone daunting!
Stimulated by these two films, directors from all over the world began to study and discuss whether future films will be shot like this, and they will use special effects without film.
There are strong arguments, there are opposition, and all kinds of ideas are clashing, this is an unprecedented discussion of film technology!
In an interview with the media, Cameron said: "Actually, there is no need to worry, film movies will flourish for a long time, even in a hundred years! Don't forget, you only see the shock of film technology, but you don't see its limitations."
If it's a literary film, is it necessary to do so? And we also have to look at its production cost and failure rate, and we can't just think that because of the success of a few films, everyone can think that all such films can be successful, or decide what kind of way to make it according to the need..."
After all, although the technology is good, not all films are applicable, and the cost is still so high, and now there are a lot of special effects used in commercial films, so it is not that special effects can be used to succeed, but to use special effects and other film technologies to serve the film and improve the quality of the movie.
And because this kind of 3DIMAX movie has only appeared in recent years, it is still a relatively rare thing, and after a few years, more and more people will watch it, and it will not cause such a big sensation if you watch more.
So the development of this kind of film technology, although it is a trend, does not mean that the original production model should be negated, you can't always ask for a literary film with a low production cost, to spend a lot of money to do some special effects, that will only be three different, so it still depends on the type and theme of the movie, the most important thing is the production cost, don't play without that money, otherwise the final production will only be scolded!
