The film industry is a highly profitable industry, and as far as the current domestic film market is concerned, so many film companies are among them, and the three major cinema chains and small and medium-sized cinema chains are desperately building theaters all over the country, of course, they want to take a bite of this incomparably tempting cake.

In the past ten years, there have been many films with an investment of only 20 or 30 million that have been very successful, and finally won an astonishing box office of hundreds of millions or even more than one billion, and the profit is high enough to make the traditional industry ashamed.

But a careful analysis of these low-budget and high-grossing films reveals the mystery - either youth idols or comedies, basically no exceptions.

Other high-grossing films all come from high investment, and the investment of one or two hundred million yuan abounds, and domestic blockbusters are desperately moving closer to Hollywood in terms of special effects, which also leads to the continuous increase in production costs.

As a domestic film, "A Chinese Ghost Story" has not surpassed everyone at the box office so far, and there are domestic films with a box office of more than 500 million in the first week, and you can give seven, eight or nine examples at will.

However, "A Chinese Ghost Story" is a fantasy and ghost film with a small investment, and the 420 million first-week box office makes it a very special example, and it seems to open a door and window for industry colleagues.

It turns out that this type of movie can be made like this!

"A Chinese Ghost Story" does not involve many computer special effects, it is quite well-made, many shots use props and traditional shooting techniques, but after editing and synthesis, the effect is very good, especially the battle scenes can be called ingenious, I don't know how strong it is than the kind of colorful and bells and whistles.

And the reason for its success is not only that, the characters with distinct personalities, the poignant and moving love story, including the appearance of the main characters, and the impeccable antique soundtrack, together constitute a classic!

That's right, a classic!

After watching "A Chinese Ghost Story", many people in the industry believe that this film is enough to lead the new trend of domestic fantasy/ghost films, and is fully qualified to achieve the status of a classic.

On the Internet, the reputation of "A Chinese Ghost Story" remains high, and the comprehensive score has been maintained at an A level, and many film critics have given strong recommendations on their respective blogs, and entertainment media have reported and paid attention to it.

The combination of all these factors has created the box office height of "A Chinese Ghost Story", and it has also overwhelmed the new and biggest competitor "Legend of the Holy Land".

Compared with "A Chinese Ghost Story", the reputation of the just-released "Legend of the Holy Land" is much worse, this Hollywood blockbuster has a lackluster box office in North America, and originally wanted to make back the capital in China, but the audience didn't buy it much.

On April 10, the box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" fell slightly to 81 million, a big step towards the 1 billion mark, while "Legend of the Holy Land" fell to 47 million, although the box office exceeded 100 million in two days, but such a high decline obviously indicates a bleak prospect.

Interestingly, another domestic film "Our Youth Is Not Lonely", which was released at the same time as "A Chinese Ghost Story", actually rose by one or two million against the market, which set off the weakness of "Legend of the Holy Land".

Nowadays, domestic movie audiences have already experienced the baptism of big/wave Hollywood blockbusters, and simple special effects and visual stimulation are obviously no longer able to meet everyone's viewing needs, so "Legend of the Holy Land", which focuses on the weak plot of special effects, is naturally easy to abandon.

In a way, the days when any Hollywood blockbuster can sweep the domestic market are long gone!

But many industry insiders believe that if there was no "A Chinese Ghost Story", or "A Chinese Ghost Story" would have been replaced with "Painted Skin", which had been removed in advance, the box office of "Legend of the Holy Land" would not have risen and fallen so highly.

On the evening of April 12, Chenfei Media held a celebration party for the box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" exceeding 500 million at the Meikadi Culture and Art Center in Beijing.

The threshold for movies is getting higher and higher, in the past, the box office exceeded 100 million, which was worth celebrating, and now less than 500 million will be ridiculed, but as far as "A Chinese Ghost Story" is concerned, a box office of two or three hundred million is eligible!

The actual box office of the film has already attracted the attention of the industry, so on the day of the celebration, all the media invited by Chenfei Media were present, and many uninvited reporters gathered outside the art center to try their luck.

The 500 million celebration party of "A Chinese Ghost Story" was quite grand, and preparations began as early as a few days ago, and the original cast of Xiangjiang was invited, including the heroine Nie Mingzhu, and Yan Chixia's actor Ma Rongzhen.

The two have also received a lot of attention from the media, especially Nie Mingzhu, who has become popular in the mainland with "A Chinese Ghost Story", has become the focus of the scene, and there are countless flashes aimed at her.

As is customary, in addition to media reporters and guests in the circle, there are also many lucky fans at the scene, who are all qualified through the blog lottery.

These fans and guests got a beautiful gift when they entered, all of them were satisfied, and they also made the atmosphere of the scene extremely lively, especially when Lu Chen, Chen Fei'er, Nie Mingzhu and Ma Rongzhen joined forces to open a huge bottle of champagne, the audience was thunderous!

After that, Lu Chen was interviewed by a number of media, and there were nearly 20 microphones with logos stretched out in front of him, and there were even more reporters around.

A reporter couldn't wait to ask: "Lu Chen, will you shoot the second part of "A Chinese Ghost Story"?"

Lu Chen shook his head without thinking: "No, but I have already sold the copyright of "A Chinese Ghost Story" to a partner, so the second or even the third part may be filmed, but I will not participate in it again." ”

He wants to make a movie, there are too many scripts to choose from, and there is no need to rely on sequels to gnaw at the old book.

This made the reporters a little surprised, to know that it was completely natural for a box office hit movie to have a sequel, and Lu Chen was willing to give up this huge profit.

But then again, if he hadn't played the leading role, the sequel would have lost a lot of color!

"So what do you want your second film to do?"

Lu Chen smiled slightly and said: "This is kept secret for the time being, at present, I am preparing to shoot my third TV series "You from the Stars", which is expected to start shooting at the end of this month." ”

This is also a piece of news that is not big or small, and there must be many TV fans of Lu Chen who are interested.

But where are the reporters willing to be satisfied, and someone asked: "Excuse me, why did this movie choose a newcomer to be the heroine, and Chen Feier to play the villain boss?"

The inquiring reporter's eyes lit up, obviously hoping to dig out something big from Lu Chen's mouth.
