Chapter 776: Reaching the Top
Chapter 776: Ascending to the top
Jiang Xia is not optimistic about other companies' films to impact the North American market, and he is quite unoptimistic.
The success of "The City Full of Golden Armor" has a big fluke, and other films will lose this fluke.
The twenty-year window period has made this movie highly anticipated, and now there is a movie to fill the gap, and North American audiences will have resistance to such a movie after watching it, and it will be a little difficult to lay down a piece of the world.
According to Jiang Xia's prediction, if it is a film of the same level, after a maximum of three movies, the North American market will say no to Chinese films again, and it will be a terrible thing at that time.
China's film market is booming, but the film industry is not up to Hollywood's level.
The most obvious point is that many new directors can become popular with a movie, but there are very few blockbusters. On the other hand, in Hollywood, blockbusters are very popular, and new directors can only polish their fame and strength one after another.
Blockbusters are quite difficult to make, and Hollywood's ability to industrialize blockbusters is definitely not something that the Chinese film industry can catch up with in a short period of time.
Literary films may be able to become popular with a flash of inspiration, but blockbusters are not good, the success of blockbusters does not have any luck, and the success of blockbusters really depends on real hard power.
If the special effects are weak, the plot is bad, the actors' acting skills are poor, and the filming is not good......
The audience always has high requirements for blockbusters, unlike literary films, as long as the plot is good and resonates, everything is fine.
If Chinese films now have the process of industrializing blockbusters like Hollywood, then Jiang Xia thinks that it is okay to go to the global market and fight a tough battle with Hollywood blockbusters, but it is still too far away.
It's just that Jiang Xia's analysis can't make the entire Chinese film and television companies see it clearly.
Perhaps there is only one company that can see clearly, and that is Shengshi.
The popularity of "The City Full of Golden Armor" in North America has made many companies and directors announce that they will make blockbusters and hit the North American market, but Shengshi is very sober and does not mix with that trend, but continues to concentrate on doing a good job in "Troubled Times 3", only making this blockbuster, and concentrating on the domestic market.
The media went to interview people in Shengshi, and it happened that Ye Yu was interviewed.
Reporter: We see that many film and television companies are going to shoot new movies to impact the global market, what are the plans of Shengshi?
Ye Yu: We don't have any plans, we didn't think about hitting the global market at all, and the domestic market has not done a good job, so we want to hit the global market, which is a way to fail.
Reporter: So Mr. Ye is not optimistic about the plans of other companies?
Ye Yu: Not optimistic. The elements they analyzed actually ignored one of the most important points, that is, the person with the golden armor all over the city was Jiang Xia's bastard, and now there is no one in China whose movies can surpass that bastard? No, right? Then don't go abroad to mix, shame.
Reporter: Mr. Ye's words are a bit sharp, do you think that only the films directed by Jiang Xia can hit the foreign market?
Ye Yu: Although I am very unhappy with that bastard, I have to admit that Jiang Xia's bastard is now the same as hanging, which is really surprising. At present, there is no domestic filmmaker who has really mixed up in Hollywood, except for Jiang Xia's bastard, right? Only he can feel the pulse of Hollywood. The others went his way and waited to die one by one. So Shengshi doesn't do that, we won't rashly change our own plans, there is only one blockbuster in Shengshi in the next two years, that is, Troubled Times 3, please look forward to it.
Reporter: Okay, we thank Mr. Ye for accepting our interview in his busy schedule, and thank Mr. Ye again.
The media interview was broadcast quickly. Although Ye Yu was a Jiangxia bastard, no one cared, because when he interviewed Ye Yu before, he said so whenever he mentioned Jiangxia.
Ye Yu is also a celebrity, the grievances and hatred between him and Jiang Xia have been exposed, and no one knows about the old things more than ten years ago, that is, he was trampled on by Jiang Xia a lot after he went to work in Shengshi. No one said that Ye Yu had no grace or anything, but thought that this Ye always had a personality and dared to love and hate, which made Ye Yu's popularity increase a little.
After his interview came out, it also sparked a discussion online.
"I feel that what Mr. Ye said is right, except for Director Jiang, who can save Chinese movies?"
"The city is full of golden armor and has become popular abroad, which does not prove that Chinese films can really rush to the world. ”
"Look at the box office of the city full of golden armor, even the troubled times series can't compare, and other movies definitely can't compare, the city with the golden armor can be successful, and other movies have to surpass the city with the golden armor to succeed. ”
"Actually, I really want to hear what Jiang Xia said, but unfortunately I can't hear it. ”
"Mr. Jiang can rush out of the country, it doesn't mean that Chinese movies can rush out, and gringos don't necessarily like Chinese movies. ”
"Now the city is full of golden armor only in North America, and other places have not yet been released, if it can be popular all over the world, it will be considered a real success. But even if it is popular all over the world, it does not prove that Chinese movies can really be compared with Hollywood blockbusters, and there is a certain fluke element in the city full of golden armor. ”
"I'll admit it's good to have gold armor all over the city, but to say that it's comparable to Hollywood movies, I still feel a bit empty. ”
"Mr. Ye said that Mr. Jiang can feel the pulse of Hollywood and know what the audience is willing to watch, but others can't, and the current filmmakers, except for Mr. Jiang, have never been in Hollywood at all. ”
"Isn't there that William? You can let him try, isn't he a Hollywood guy?"
"Not to mention, someone really asked William to make a movie, and he followed. It will be released in a few days. ”
"Really? ”
"Looking forward to a fart, William's broken level, to compare with Teacher Jiang? How is it possible, don't let him out and be embarrassed. ”
"I'm really looking forward to the popularity of our movie. ”
"I hope to see the day when I go against Hollywood blockbusters. ”
……
Ye Yu's interview also made many companies beat their hearts, but in the end, greed triumphed over reason.
Especially several big domestic directors, have long had the idea of impacting the foreign market, but no one has invested in no opportunity, now there is an opportunity, of course, we must seize it tightly, so I went to the company over and over again, and the company was not firm, so I decided to continue to cooperate and impact the international market.
Many big directors who have made a name for themselves in China want to hit the foreign market, which is different from going abroad to win awards, they want to go abroad to open up the situation. There are no award-winning movies that can cross the Oscars, and everyone knows that the Oscars are the top and most watched awards.
However, there have been no films released in North America for 20 years, which makes the current filmmakers very empty, and some films that have won awards in Europe have also been shown abroad, and the response has been mediocre.
The international market is a relatively unfamiliar and dangerous venue for Chinese companies and filmmakers. No one can get the pulse of the international market, and no one can be sure that the movies they make are what the global market likes, so in order to keep not losing money, film and television companies are mixed in China to maintain their own names and interests.
Stars have some thoughts of rushing out of the country, and some people are operating to play soy sauce in some Hollywood movies, but none of them can really play important roles, all of them are supporting roles, foils, and even soy sauce with just one or two lines. Even so, it can't stop them from playing soy sauce.
Several big directors are holding their breath, Jiang Xia, a junior student, even if the box office of the movie is exaggerated enough, now they can still make a name for themselves abroad, they are much more powerful than Jiang Xia, and they don't think they will fail.
In the past few days, several large domestic companies have announced new film plans and begun to prepare for large-scale costume martial arts movies that will hit the global market.
The recent lively situation has stolen some of the limelight from the Lunar New Year stalls.
"The City Full of Golden Armor" took the lead and was released a week in advance, avoiding the three days of New Year's Day, the most popular New Year's Day for the Chinese New Year. At the beginning, other movies were still rejoicing, they were lucky to be able to avoid Jiangxia's blockbusters, and a week's time could also make the popularity of the movie a little lower.
But what they didn't expect was that Jiangxia's "The City Full of Golden Armor" was released ahead of schedule, and the box office results were too gorgeous, coupled with the competition abroad, so that its popularity did not decline at all, even if it was three days on New Year's Day, it still maintained a box office result of more than 100 million per day, and a box office of 340 million in three days.
On January 4th, the total box office of "The City Full of Golden Armor" reached a terrifying 2 billion!
From December 23rd to January 3rd, twelve days after its release, "The City Full of Golden Armor" exceeded 2 billion box office!
Before the arrival of New Year's Day, the box office of "Full of Golden Armor" has been more than 1.67 billion, except for the first four days, the box office increase is not very large, those days are new releases, and it is a weekend, so there is such a terrible box office, and the box office in the next few days has dropped, but in time for the three-day holiday on New Year's Day, the box office is back again, and the total box office is directly pushed to the 2 billion mark.
Now, it is said that "The City Full of Golden Armor" is about to top the total box office champion of domestic films, I am afraid that no one disagrees, and some people even think that "Full of Golden Armor" can attack the throne of the total box office champion of domestic films, and there are not many, only 700 million distances.
"The City Full of Golden Armor" is only 2 billion in 12 days, and there are still 30 days before the next painting, and it is completely possible to get 700 million in a month, and it is completely possible to win 700 million in a month at the box office level of "Full of Golden Armor".
Cheng Xin asked Jiang Xia if it was possible.
Jiang Xia said: "The possibility is not too big, 2.2 billion should be no problem, it has reached the top now, to put it bluntly, this is a commercial film, the box office potential of commercial films is generally more than a week, and it is already very good to last for two weeks." Look, the box office will come down in two days. ”
As if to confirm Jiang Xia's statement, since January 5th, the box office has really declined, but Rao is so, the box office of "The City Full of Golden Armor" is also rising steadily, and on January 10th, it successfully crossed the 2.23 billion mark and topped the domestic film box office champion!
