1194: Huaxia Palace

Ideake.org, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Super Monster Factory!

The ticket price of "Drifting City: Rise" is 35 yuan.

This ticket price is similar to the ticket price of those offline theaters across the country, which is a very normal ticket price.

A movie ticket can only be watched once, and of course, some people have complained online that watching movies with holographic glasses means that Behemoth Industries does not have to pay for a physical cinema chain, nor does it have to spend money to invest in screens and playback equipment.

Even the audience spends their own home appliances when watching movies.

Thirty-five yuan a ticket, like the 3D hall tickets in the cinema, there is no discount.

Will it be expensive?

"It's too expensive, you don't have to buy it. "There are old users who leave messages below.

Of course, complaining is complaining, they still honestly spent money on tickets.

If they are willing to spend 8,060 to buy a holographic glasses, how could they miss out on a virtual movie that they have never experienced for 35 yuan?

So there are still two hours before the release of "Drifting City: Rise", and more than 40% of the nearly 20 million holographic glasses users have already purchased tickets in advance.

……

Ignatius had already sat in the virtual film and television department early, and he was staring at the big screen with a big beer belly.

Even if this movie has proven itself with box office data around the world months ago.

But Ignatius still didn't have enough confidence that this movie would definitely succeed in China.

There was a lot of applause abroad, and even word of mouth was blown to the throne, but when it came to China, it was a mess, and the box office was so low that people couldn't help but doubt the reality of the movie examples.

For example, the previous Black Panther, North America almost licked him until he emitted divine light.

Of course~

The response in North America was mediocre, and even the crew couldn't even make back the investment in filming within the time limit, so I thought it would be a loss. As a result, it became an instant explosion in Huaxia, and there are also examples of making the entire crew earn a lot of money with the power of the Huaxia box office alone.

For example, Warcraft.

If before, Ignatius may not be too worried, the Chinese box office and the North American box office will have the above word-of-mouth extreme differentiation.

After all, even if the cultural background is different, there will still be many elements in the movie "Drifting City: Rise" that attract Chinese fans.

As early as the first step of the Drifting City trilogy, Ignatius added the overweight [Huaxia Palace] maritime city to the movie in order to curry favor with Huaxia, an important box office second only to North America. These are three super maritime cities alongside New York and London, and the scenes surrounding them have been running through the entire trilogy.

But Ignatius, who was quite confident before, now looks at the fact that the movie is only two hours away, but the box office has only sold 40% of the figures, and his heart is puffing.

Ignatius quietly focused his gaze on Ye Qing beside him, who had a calm expression and looked like he had expected it.

Ye Qing said with a smile: "My big director, don't be so nervous, if it's a traditional theater, the pre-sale rate of forty certainly means that the movie is fluttering." ”

"However, this is a virtual theater, and when the movie is officially released at 6 p.m., users can watch it from scratch whenever they buy a ticket, and they don't have to worry about full seats. ”

"So users usually like to buy tickets in the last half hour. ”

The truth is that for the first time in his life, Ignatius put his movie in the virtual world.

It's a huge gamble.

Success will mean that director Ignatius will become the first leading figure in Hollywood to usher in the virtual era.

After this, his success will inevitably attract the attention of the entire Hollywood, and he will be the most dazzling flag director in Hollywood.

If you fail......

He will completely offend the entire Huaxia film industry, and in order to calm the anger of the Huaxia film industry, it is possible for the investor to replace the director of the next film.

Ignatius is aiming for a billion.

As long as it exceeds one billion, he can use this data to completely convince investors, so that they realize the brilliant prospects of holographic glasses in the future, and they can turn their faces with the traditional Chinese film and television industry without any scruples.

"Or ...... Mr. Ye, let's go into the virtual world and have a look?"

"See what?"

"If you want to watch the box office, just watch it here. Ye Qing was a little strange, as early as when Ignatius sent the original film of this movie in advance and asked the virtual film and television department to process it technically, so that the movie would be more in line with the holographic glasses playback effect, Ignatius had already seen the processed movie at that time.

Ye Qing remembered that after reading it, this guy was still as confident as he was in heaven and earth.

"I wanted to sneak a peek at the reactions of the users. Ignatius couldn't hold back, he felt like he had gone back to the moment when his first film was released twenty years ago.

At that time, he sneaked into the movie theater, crowded into the most crowded position around, and waited anxiously for the audience's evaluation.

"But it's two hours before the movie comes out. ”

Ignatius asked, "What's that...... Do you want to wait any longer?"

And so on, another hour.

Ignatius was even more nervous, because the box office pre-sale had only reached 57%.

According to the experience of traditional cinemas, 57% of pre-sales have already reached the sky.

Hollywood blockbusters are usually scheduled from noon on the day of their traditional theatrical release. The number of other movies that were being released that day was greatly reduced, and it was scheduled until 12 o'clock at midnight.

If every movie is regarded as a pre-sale, then the proportion of pre-sold tickets on the day is only more than 500% of the successful start.

After a few moments, Ignatius couldn't sit still.

Only thirty minutes before the release of the movie, the box office pre-sale is only 64%.

He sent an invitation to Ye Qing again, but Ye Qing could only point to his holographic glasses.

To be honest, Ye Qing also felt that this pre-sale figure was a bit low.

Because according to the experience of the previous movie, the pre-sale ratio should be at least 75% now.

Dozens of seconds later, Ye Qinghe went to the great director Ignatius and walked through the gate of a super palace that would not be too much to describe in any gorgeous language.

In order to allow users to get the most exciting viewing experience, the technical staff of the giant beast industry specially moved the super maritime city of [Huaxia Palace] in the movie into virtual reality according to this movie, and became a virtual theater that users can choose.

In fact, as early as the time of national entertainment activities, Behemoth Industry implicitly advertised "Drifting City: Rising".

At the beginning, the super palace on the sea that gathered all the active users was modeled after the design of the palace.

However, in the city of palaces in the movie, the palace is only a part of it, or just the most representative building.

In addition to the palace, it also has living quarters larger than the decks of twenty aircraft carriers, and countless weapons of war that surround the entire maritime city.

When the white light disappeared, the great director Ignatius was stunned.

Even Ye Qing was a little surprised.

Because the Super Palace, which was moved from the movie, has become Disneyland.

Person.

Densely packed with people.

There are so many people that the graphics card can't afford it, so it can only be replaced with patches of blurry gray shadows.

In the virtual world, the great director Ignatius is of course not afraid of being recognized, so he casually found a user dressed in cartoon costumes around him to talk to him in English, saying that the movie is about to start, why don't you go to the palace to buy tickets, are you not looking forward to this movie?

It just so happened that this user's English was good, and he said in a nosy tone, "Fuss foreigner, when can't I watch it? Huaxia Palace is so shocking, of course I'll play it first." ”

Ignatius asked several other users uneasily, and they turned out that they didn't understand English at all.

Then Ignatius simply stood guard at the gate of the super palace behind him.

There is a row of ticket gates in front of the gate.

To enter the palace, you must show a virtual ticket.

Ignatius continued to interview passers-by, and even a minority who could speak English would be the majority in the face of the millions of users.

With the interview, Ignatius was in a much happier mood.

Because almost all the interviewees expressed their special expectations for this movie, the reason for not buying tickets so early is that most of them can buy tickets at any time, first take a look at the Huaxia Palace, or wait for the takeaway brother to deliver the snacks, and then buy them later.

Ignatius also asked them if they were satisfied with the fare, and most of the users said they were okay with it.

Ignatius wanted to end the interview, but then he saw three very old-fashioned users suddenly walking in front of him.

In the virtual world, users can match their own clothes at will.

Therefore, their clothing taste will also be intuitively reflected in those cartoon characters.

What caught the eye of Ignatius was the body language of the three users.

Their hands drooping on either side of their thighs are swaying slightly as they are in real life, and they are nimble in their gait, unlike those low-profile users who can only lift their legs mechanically.

These are three local tyrant users who have worn the full version of the Genshin suit.
