A few days later.

The overseas version of the Rotten Tomatoes website has finally landed in the world.

However, it is impossible to rely on the Maoyan APP to complete the user connection like in China, and it can only develop slowly.

And public relations and advertising and other expenses and means, all of them are indispensable.

In particular, the APP of Rotten Tomatoes is jointly promoted by several major application platforms, and even Oriental Entertainment has signed a built-in agreement with a mobile phone brand.

The Rotten Tomatoes APP integrates global movie information and movie ratings, reviews and other information, which can be said to be the castrated overseas version of the Maoyan APP, with only the business of buying tickets.

The review of King Charlie's film was first published on Rotten Tomatoes, which was not originally part of the app promotion plan.

But it has inadvertently caused hundreds of millions of people around the world to flock to Rotten Tomatoes, especially British users, who have registered accounts to praise their king.

Almost overnight, the number of users on Rotten Tomatoes rose sharply, much stronger than the domestic increase.

This is the first time in the history of the Chinese Internet that the shackles of the wall have been broken, but if Chinese people want to browse the overseas version, they must switch to the English international version.

At the same time, although there is no domestic version of the Rotten Tomatoes APP, on the Maoyan APP, you can still see overseas users' comments on the movie.

Overseas netizens recognize and love the rating system of Rotten Tomatoes.

have written on the message board:

"Oh! I like this app so much, it's a simple and direct way to score, if you like it, you can smash the red tomatoes, if you don't like the green tomatoes, you don't have to think about how many stars I want to give or how many points I want to give like other rating sites. ”

"I'm going to move all the movie reviews that I used to have on XX Net!"

"I can't live without this app anymore, and I can still see those movies that have been released recently, but it would be nice if I could buy tickets directly!"

"It's great to be able to see Chinese movie information, so that I can rely on the freshness of tomatoes to find my favorite Chinese movies to watch!"

"Me too, since I became obsessed with Li Zhifan, I have also become obsessed with Chinese movies, I love this country!"

"This is Vaal's cottage, welcome to rate the review I wrote, address ......"

For the overseas version, there is still a strong review mechanism, but for the review system of the movie, there is no requirement that you must buy tickets to score on the Maoyan APP, but as long as it is released, it can be scored, whether it is a new movie or an old movie, it is the same.

At this time, the shareholders of Danmo Media have undergone a major change.

Those shareholders at the time of the merger and acquisition were only in the single digits.

When these people reacted and found that the Maoyan APP had been connected overseas, and after opening up a lot of systems with the overseas version of the Rotten Tomatoes APP, they were dumbfounded, and it was a pity.

Those foreign advertisers put out ads, and they make a lot of dollars!

I knew this earlier, let Li Zhifan change blindly!

Just let them do it!

"Alas, if I had chosen to believe Li Zhifan at that time, I would definitely not sell my shares!"

"At that time, what we were thinking about was not whether we believed Li Zhifan or not, but whether Oriental Entertainment would say that we had become garbage and stocks had become worthless toilet paper, but we didn't expect ......"

"I'll just say, you guys are too worried, a commercial company as big as the Oriental Bloc will spend a lot of money to buy something to make him depreciate and lose money?"

"Then why did you come with us?"

"Hmm...... Donated, I'm going to invest in the entertainment market, a company has recently made two films, are you interested in investing?"

“……”

Li Zhifan did think about completely suppressing Danmo Media, and then playing a one-handed capital injection to bring the dead back to life.

The money you lose at that time can be doubled back in the stock market later.

Therefore, the purpose of this hand is only to make shareholders obedient, and if they are not obedient, they will exchange blood.

Many members of the Filmmakers Association have sold their shares in Danmo Media, and some have even bought shares in disguise.

In others, a group of people raised money to form a company and then worked together to buy a shareholder's equity.

Now, with the success of Maoyan APP and Rotten Tomatoes at home and abroad, the market value of Danmo Media has soared to twice its original value, with an average of 37 yuan per share.

Originally, it was only 12 yuan per share, and when those filmmakers bought it, it was only 8 yuan.

Now, seeing that they have made money, those original shareholders are naturally itching with hatred, but they are helpless.

Because Li Zhifan and Oriental Entertainment have never talked to them about equity changes from beginning to end, they haven't even held a meeting to dissuade them, and they want to leave, and they agree generously.

At this time, these original shareholders began to wonder if this was a game that had been set up a long time ago, just waiting for them to drill into it!

……

In the blink of an eye.

The release date of The Lord of the Rings 1: The Lord of the Rings Return has arrived.

Globally, there are 21 regions in the first batch of countries.

These include the whole of China (including Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan), the United States, England, Wales, Australia, etc.

The situation in the United Kingdom is most special.

England and Wales will be released today, but Northern Ireland and Scotland will be released 12 hours later, and I don't know how they set their plans.

But this is not a question of Li Zhifan going to the relationship.

He is now firmly seated in the Chinese military tent, waiting for the box office success to come.

Eight o'clock in the evening.

The entire Oriental Entertainment, in the team office hall responsible for the promotion and distribution of "The Lord of the Rings", is brightly lit.

Everyone is working overtime.

On the other side, the office hall of Li Zhifan's brokerage team is also lit, but there are only a few people.

In the office inside, the lights are not on.

But Li Zhifan was inside, he sat in the boss's chair, looking up at the ceiling, waiting for news.

After a while, I actually fell asleep.

When I woke up again, it was still dark.

Li Zhifan took out his mobile phone and saw that it was 4 o'clock in the morning.

"I'll you!"

He hurriedly stood up, walked out of the office, and asked the night shift staff in the hall, "Is the box office for the premiere out?"

"It's out! Brother Li!"

The staff hurriedly picked up the document and reported, "44.9 million in China and 80 million US dollars in the world!"

"Oh, that's pretty much what we guessed?"

I made a budget before, and the premiere in 21 countries at the same time is about 50 million ~ 130 million.

130 million is the limit, although it was not done, but the box office of 80 million in the premiere was enough to blow for a while.

"Did you post a quick blog?"

Li Zhifan asked, the celebration poster of breaking 100 million yuan has been made a long time ago, and a poster of 4 billion US dollars has been prepared, as for whether it can be used, it is unknown.

"It's already been sent!"

The staff said, "I sent it as soon as I could!"

"Okay, then you are busy, go to the lounge and sleep for a while when you are sleepy!"

Li Zhifan nodded, yawned and walked back to the office, turned to the staff before entering the door and said, "Xiao Song, pour me a cup of coffee!"

Now it seems that without his command and operation, the people below can already get things done.

After all, they are all professionals, and Li Zhifan is only giving opinions now, after a movie is made, it actually has nothing to do with the director.

Online.

The official blog of "The Lord of the Rings 1: The Lord of the Rings Reappears" is a big deal.

Other people's celebration photos are calculated according to the domestic box office.

But the official blog of "The Lord of the Rings" is based on the global box office, and the word "dollar" is written very big.

Of course, this is not to worship foreign flattery, but to tell everyone: Look, we have made so much money, except for the domestic box office, most of it is foreigners' money!

Netizens also love to join in the fun.

Seeing the words "2 hours after its release, the world broke 130 million US dollars", tears of excitement welled up in my eyes.

Although the premiere is 80 million, there is only Chinese mainland in the world, there is only one at 12 o'clock, and there is another one at half past two in the morning, and then it will be until eight o'clock tomorrow morning.

In European and American countries, in addition to the premiere at 8 o'clock, there are other screenings open at 9 o'clock, mainly to dredge the movie-going crowd, so after 9 o'clock, another $50 million came in.

"Ah! Chinese movies have finally gone to the world!"

"Filmed by Chinese, filmed in China, with a large number of Chinese participating, the first Chinese film in the sense of the word, although it is a Western fantasy, but we succeeded!"

"No matter what the subject matter is, this time Li Zhifan and Oriental Entertainment have the greatest credit!"

"Li Zhifan, cow beep!"

"Director Li, I want to act!"

"What is the concept of 180 million? 1 billion RMB! The premiere is 1 billion, which proves that only a bigger stage can have so much box office. ”

"Movie tickets in the United States are also calculated in US dollars, and I heard that a ticket over there is 10 US dollars, which is equivalent to 60 yuan, which is not cheap. ”

"Our movie ticket is only 35 yuan a ticket, if it is also at this price, it will cost 70 or 80 million, right?"

"That's also RMB, although we are already the second largest film market, compared with the global film market, the magnitude is not a unit!"

“……”

Not only domestic netizens, but also audiences around the world have expressed their opinions on the movie after watching the movie.

And Rotten Tomatoes has become one of the gathering places for global movie fans.

Many people who don't know about Rotten Tomatoes also know about this website from the Internet at this time.

As a result, the average number of daily visits has been rising, and the server has crashed several times.

This is also no way, not there is so much traffic every day, so you can only buy cloud servers, spend money to upgrade when you need to upgrade, and maintain the original magnitude when you don't need it.

On Rotten Tomatoes:

"Oh my God, this is a good movie!"

"I was amazed by Orlando's appearance, Li Zhifan is so beautiful!"

"The moment Gandalf fell off the bridge, I really cried......"

"Orlando Bloom has too few scenes, why doesn't Li Zhifan add drama to himself?"

"Li Zhifan only has a few shots, regret regret!"

"If you want to experience the epic charm of the magical world, hurry to the cinema and watch The Lord of the Rings: The Lord of the Rings Reappear!

"Epic story, every scene is beautiful, my favorite is the elf prince, after all, it is Yan Kong, but the plot is limited and slow, it is really not suitable for people like me who have not read the original book!"

"Frodo is too wasteful, isn't he?

"Human nature and other living beings have their own vulnerabilities, so even if you choose kindness, you can be fragile and steer in other directions, just like the queen of the forest!"

"Using evil means to achieve the goal of goodness, in essence, fighting poison with poison and fighting evil with evil, just like the sons of Gondo in the past, all of which were produced when human beliefs were not firm enough and their inner strength became weaker and weaker. ”

"For a movie like this, there are only two words to describe it: classic. I hope to get out the second part soon!"

"Alas, I'm not interested in the magic of Europe and the United States, but I still like the fantasy of China. ”

"There are more adaptations than originally thought, in addition to the shortening of the timeline, there are also several changes to the story line, the biggest point is that there is an additional story line. It's hard to say whether it's good or bad, in terms of visual restoration alone, "The Lord of the Rings", a work that was once impossible to adapt film and television, is now adapted to a first-class level. ”

“……”

The short reviews will naturally have mixed reviews about the quality of the movie, but the freshness of Rotten Tomatoes is still maintained at 100%, which is enough to show that many people who don't understand it, or don't understand the reason for the story, don't dare to talk nonsense, just with the scene and character modeling, they smashed the red tomatoes.

In these short comments, there is a mixture of domestic and foreign comments, but Chinese people can only see their own comments if they do not switch the international version on the Rotten Tomatoes website, and on the Maoyan APP, there is a special section, called "Look at what crooked nuts say" sub-column, after clicking on it, you can see the short comments of foreign audiences, which is very convenient.

The first day came down.

"The Lord of the Rings I: The Lord of the Rings Reprimand" grossed $500 million worldwide.

At this rate, the preset box office will definitely be reached in a month.

Theaters in many countries have given 89% of such high-ranking films, such as England and Australia.

There is no country with a film schedule, less than 55%, taken together, the global film schedule is as high as 60%, and this is still the first batch of 21 countries to be released, and then plus the box office of other countries, it should be no problem to rush the box office record of "Avatar".

The first part was successful, so when the second part will start filming has become a topic of national concern.

Especially those sponsors and investors, they contacted Oriental Entertainment as soon as possible to inquire about the filming of the second part.

But Li Zhifan doesn't plan to shoot in the next few years, or at least have to wait a year or two!

With the release of the movie, the actors in the film have also become popular, and the teenager who played the protagonist has appeared in Times People magazine in the United States and has become the youngest movie actor.

Among the other supporting roles, many Chinese actors have also received a lot of attention around the world, and they are even more famous in the Chinese entertainment industry, and film appointments are coming one after another like snowflakes.

Among them, Azgul is one of the Chinese actresses who have successfully become popular.

On the university campus, she received an extraordinary audience, and there were countless boys waiting in line at the door of her classroom every day, and there were even more people shouting her name downstairs in the dormitory.

But Azgul can calm down, not vain or impatient, still doing what she should do, and she will not pick up the drama appointment that comes to her door immediately.

Because she knows that there is a better future waiting for her.
