Section 341: Make hamburgers

Prosperity, Democracy, Civilization and Harmony?

Faced with Duane's answer, Shu Yu rolled her eyes again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"In our North America, Europe, and other large box offices, our propaganda offensive has not stopped. In the new round of propaganda offensive, the domestic box office situation has played a certain role in helping our propaganda work,"

Shu Yu said, leaning against the window and looking out, holding a glass of water in his hand.

She raised the glass of water to her lips and wanted to take a sip, but she didn't drink it, and when she looked down, she saw that the water in the cup had dried up unconsciously, and then she paced back from the window, bent down to the water dispenser and poured water herself, and said with her back to Duane while pouring a glass of water: "But that's not the point." ā€

"Just like this overseas box office will definitely stimulate the domestic box office and achieve the result of pulling up the box office, but it is foreseeable that the effect of this box office will not be too exaggerated, according to my opinion, it would be good if the weekly box office could increase by 100 million. ā€

"The same is true for the overseas box office. ā€

Shuyu straightened up after pouring the water, paced back but did not stand at the window again, but sat down on the sofa on the other side, leaned on the sofa, took a sip of the water in his hand and put it on the countertop in front of him, raised his eyes to look at Duane who was sitting behind the desk, and said: "Although we have invested money in several major box offices to carry out a series of follow-up publicity activities, you should not forget that the overseas box office was not as high as the domestic box office in the first week." According to the team's original estimate, in the second week, it is not too much of a problem to rely on domestic advantages to drive publicity to stimulate the overseas box office, so that the overseas box office can catch up with and surpass the domestic box office, but the box office figure they estimated for the second week is only in the range of 600 million to 700 million, how did the extra 200 million come from?"

Seeing that Du An was about to speak again, Shu Yu hurriedly opened his mouth first and blocked the words that might come out of his mouth that she didn't want to hear.

"If you still say that it's rich and strong, democratic or something, forget it, our country hasn't exported the main theme movie before, but which one do those foreigners like to watch?"

In fact, China's main theme movies are not only disliked by their own people, but also by foreigners, so it is pure nonsense to say that foreigners are infected by the spirit of the main theme.

Du An glanced at Shu Yu, casually turned off a page on the monitor in front of him, and then turned around with his butt and the chair under him, the whole person facing the direction of Shu Yu.

He wanted to fool the past by not saying anything and casually gagging, but Shu Yu was obviously not good at coming today, if he didn't give her a satisfactory explanation, with his understanding of Shu Yu, she was afraid that she would always be here to stalemate with him.

"Because they're infected. ā€

Du An came out with the same words as just now, and before Shu Yu could roll his eyes again, he preemptively continued, "I'm not fooling you. ā€

"You also know that there are big cultural differences between our country and those countries overseas, especially those countries in Europe and the United States, so some movies that we think are wonderful are not felt by them at all, and some things that we think are not very good, but they are very wonderful in their eyes, and Liberation Day is an example of this. ā€

"In the eyes of many domestic film critics, "Liberation Day" is empty, not deep enough, and not enough connotation, which is a major flaw, but in my opinion, this is a big advantage - what do you want with such deep depth and connotation? This is originally a simple movie, so simple that as long as a person can understand the movie. ā€

"If I want to make "Liberation Day" in-depth and make it as thought-provoking as "Flying Over the Asylum", it's not that I can't do it, but why should I do that? "One Flying Over the Asylum" is enough, and the one I'm making now is "Liberation Day", in my opinion, "Liberation Day" should be a movie that everyone can understand and enjoy, so I simplified the whole story, without the philosophical ideas that are unique to Chinese films, and tried to minimize the identity barriers caused by cultural differences. ā€

"This is in terms of cultural differences, but also in terms of content. ā€

Du An's breath of anger lasted for a long time, took a sip of water from the water cup in front of him, and then continued: "Many people say that "Liberation Day" is all special effects and pays too much attention to the picture, compared to this, the storytelling has been weakened a lot, but I want to say that this is exactly what I want to do." ā€

"Everyone's level of education is different, so when a story comes out, some people can understand it, and some people can't, if you add cultural differences, then the situation is even more complicated, but the picture is different - a bomb is dropped and kills a whole person, as long as it is not cognitively impaired, everyone can understand it, and the feelings are generally the same. ā€

"From here, it can be seen that compared with stories, pictures are a more effective means of communication, and I am now increasing the proportion of this effective means of communication and making the most of it. ā€

Speaking of this, Duane paused for a moment, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said: "It seems that this can also be classified as a aspect of cultural differences - it increases the performance of the camera picture, attracts the audience's attention to the wonderful and easy-to-understand camera pictures, the so-called big scenes, and allows them to focus on audio-visual enjoyment. ā€

In the end, he made a summary, "In general, a simple but not rough story with wonderful pictures has tried to eliminate the gap between cultural differences, and I think this is the magic weapon of "Liberation Day" overseas." ā€

After saying this, Du An saw Shu Yu sitting on the sofa in front of him on the right and fell into deep thought.

Shu Yu didn't speak, he was also idle and had nothing to do, and stared at the monitor screen in front of him and began to open some information - these are some recent summary reports of his theater, and this office is also his office in Paramount, and he just took a moment to take a look at it today, and was blocked by Shu Yu.

Group 2 has been established, this is good, the competition mechanism should also run quickly, the vote stub voting of each game, the popularity of the post bar is not less, this is not a place for the elderly, he wants to make this the most cruel "Colosseum", there is competition to be creative, in addition, the cooperation with the live broadcast platform of the origin should also be confirmed quickly......

He watched from this side, and after a while, he suddenly heard Shu Yu speak.

"Can it be so simple to boost the overseas box office?"

He looked up and saw Shu Yu looking at him.

"If it is so simple to make such a big increase in the overseas box office, then why didn't they do it before?"

Duane asked her: "If you are a chef who is proficient in Cantonese cuisine and are now going to participate in a cooking competition, will you choose to make your best and best reflect your level of braised sea tiger wings with crab meat, or make an egg fried rice?"

Shu Yu kind of understood.

"Besides, foreigners prefer hamburgers instead of egg fried rice, and for those 'chefs' in our country, making hamburgers is even more self-defeating, which can almost be said to be a shame. ā€

Duane said leisurely.

Shu Yu asked, "What about you?"

"Me?"

Duane laughed self-deprecatingly, "I graduated from a 'New Oriental', and I didn't have the consciousness of a chef, making money is the ultimate goal for me, as long as I can make money, why not make hamburgers?" (To be continued.) )
