Chapter 533: Topic volume explosion
"Fast Pursuit" refreshed the box office record of domestic film screenings, and after the single-day box office record, it grabbed all the entertainment media headlines at a stormy speed, and the explosive box office growth rate made this movie the center of entertainment topics.
Explosion, can only be described by explosion, if the discussion before the release was only because Zhou Bai put a lot of effort into publicity and marketing, but the discussion after the release was spontaneous by the media, in one sentence, that is, the topic of "Speed Chase" exploded.
"The box office of "Fast Pursuit" is expected to exceed 400 million, and the box office record of "Titanic" may be surpassed" This is the headline title of "Beijing Entertainment News", their editor's confidence in "Fast Pursuit" is simply incredible, directly proposing a stunned goal, and even surpassing the box office record of "Titanic" as easy, and domestic audiences who do not know the truth can have a sense of pride just by looking at the title.
What is called a big fan, this is, if it weren't for the current box office just breaking 100 million, Zhou Bai himself believed it, this editor may really like "Fast Pursuit", and even Zhou Bai felt a little blushing when he saw the praise of this movie, but this way of praise is too much.
""Fast Pursuit" broke 100 million in three days, and the spring of domestic action movies has arrived", this is the title of "Film News", taking "Fast Pursuit" as a typical, rejoicing at the appearance of this movie, and predicting that the spring of domestic film action films has arrived, there is no doubt that domestic action films will have a bright future in the future, and "Fast Pursuit" will be regarded as the savior of the film market, and the downturn in the domestic film market will be gone forever.
For such a report, Zhou Bai doesn't know whether to cry or laugh, in fact, he knows in his heart that "Fast Pursuit" is difficult to copy, one is the problem of investment amount, it is difficult to find a movie with a real production investment of 200 million, in addition, nearly 100 million publicity funds are not something that anyone dares to invest, and the other is the problem of production level, without a mature production team and mature technology, if the production level cannot be guaranteed, it may only end up producing a so-called "blockbuster" with a big reputation and poor quality.
There are media that sing praises for movies, and naturally there will be media that sing down, and many prophetic reports have been released, and it is not uncommon to see declines in the prediction of box office results.
"The market potential will be exhausted, "Fast Pursuit" may be a big jump at the box office" This is the title of "Magic City Film News", in the report, in addition to an analysis of the movie, they also made a careful analysis of the film market potential of "Fast Pursuit", and came to the conclusion that young audiences do not have as much as they imagined, and "Fast Pursuit" has almost tapped the market potential of young audiences, especially the limited economic ability of student consumer groups, and then it is the beginning of the box office decline, which may plunge at the box office.
Zhou Bai didn't feel angry or sad when he saw this report, which is also what Zhou Bai's team had worried about before the release of the movie, and some people in the company have similar views to the editor of "Magic City Film News", the consumption power of young consumer groups is a problem.
"Our audience positioning is not only students, it is right to target young people, but students are only one of the main subjects, and young people who have already worked in the society, as long as they set off a trend and get the love of young people, their spending power will create a big surprise for us, I think the most willing to spend money is often young people. At the meeting, Zhou Bai said so, he did not agree with this view, winning the love of young people is the problem, and the consumption power has never been.
If it is a luxury product, Zhou Bai may have to think about it carefully, but the movie is different, the price of a movie ticket is only thirty yuan, and with the activities of the movie theater, it is even only twenty yuan, as long as there is a discussion boom, nothing else is a problem.
Why is the box office of "Titanic" so high, that is to set off a national viewing boom, the main force of which is young people, because the love of the hero and heroine has touched countless young people, many people call friends to enter the cinema, all kinds of crazy Amway, and the ticket price of hundreds of yuan even stops a considerable number of young people out of the cinema, so it also creates a box office miracle, if the release time is longer, the number of screenings is more, and the ticket price is lower, more than 400 million is definitely not a problem.
Six or seven years have passed, the domestic economic growth has almost doubled, the consumption level has far exceeded 98 years, and the consumption power of young groups has grown significantly.
In addition to the topic of the box office, the analysis of the movie is also a key point, some people love this movie, some people hate this movie, and there are countless analytical comments about the movie.
"Action movies like to let an action hero who walks in the moral gray area and has a complex background and a stoic personality sing the protagonist, but this type of action movie is difficult to say new and boring, and what the audience needs is a crime movie with clear boundaries and a bright and neat style like "Fast Pursuit", the actor is decisive and unstoppable, maybe he can't give you anything to think about, but it will definitely give you a hearty sense of pleasure, so that you can live in the cinema for more than an hour Tense, exciting, and enjoyable. ”
"What is a novel movie, I think "Fast Pursuit" is a full new movie, this movie abandons the cumbersomeness of previous action movies, and chooses to pursue the ultimate violent beauty in a simple and clear way, on the basis of qualified plot logic, amplify the aesthetics of violence to the extreme through fast shots, pay attention to the audience's visual senses and psychological feelings, every action scene in this movie, even to the point of being cool, this is unprecedented novelty. ”
"Simple, brainless, this adjective is often derogatory, but it is used in "Fast Pursuit" I think these two words are compliments, a plot with a complete explanation, the whole story is closely related to the two words of revenge, and even the male protagonist solves all the problems in a rampaged brainless way, but it exudes indescribable charm and gives people a deep impression, if you want to choose a classic killer image, the male protagonist played by Zhou Bai I am willing to vote, because he perfectly meets my imagination of the killer in my heart, never nonsense, a fatal blow. ”
Of course, in addition to praise, there must also be criticism, whether it is a professional film critic or the media, there are always some people who rely on disobedience to gain attention, the popularity of "Fast Pursuit" just gives them the opportunity to earn eyeballs, and the group of people who have grievances with Zhou Bai in the past are not willing to watch Zhou Bai spring breeze at this time.
