In front of the computer, Lin Xian browsed the comments on "Resident Evil" on the Internet.
As a senior media person, Lin Xian has already watched "Resident Evil" (participated in the premiere of "Resident Evil"), and after that, Lin Xian was very interested in the theme of zombies!
As early as after the premiere, Lin Xian wrote on his Weibo: A large wave of zombie movies is coming!
This sentence, Lin Xian is not nonsense, but there is a basis, first, "Resident Evil" is really good, and second, Huaxia is a well-known copycat country, there is no reason why they don't follow the trend in the case of zombie movie fire!
Speaking of which, following the trend is a feature of Chinese films, and at the same time, it is also a drawback, and it is the biggest obstacle to the progress of Chinese films!
Speaking of which, in the eighties and nineties of the twentieth century, there was a climax period of Chinese films, at that time, Chinese films were almost on an equal footing with Hollywood, and even the United States introduced many Chinese films.
At that time, it was the golden age of Chinese films!
However, at this time, Huaxia movies began to rest on their laurels, or rather, began to be greedy for small gains.
As long as there is a film that is high at the box office, then in the next few months, there will be a series of movies that follow the trend (at that time, the pace of film production was particularly fast, and one movie in three months was considered the norm)!
What's more, among these follow-up movies, almost one or two of them have taken the **** luck and won a big box office!
And this makes those investors more and more crazy, because, even if the sales of the movies made by following the trend are not good, there will be no loss, and most of them will make a small profit!
In such a situation, these businessmen do not know how to do it, then they are really fools!
Intensify your efforts to follow the trend!
Everyone adheres to the belief that if I invest in this movie anyway, I won't lose money, and at least I can make a small profit, so why not? If you're lucky and make a lot of money, you'll be in for a treat!
Investing in new types of movies, although it is possible to get a big gain, but high returns also mean high risks, and there are still very few that can really get high returns.
At that time, many people invested in new types of movies, and most of them ended up with Waterloo and lost their money!
It's not that if you make a new movie, you're going to get a big box office, that's a misconception.
At that time, although the most profitable movies were still trendy movies, at the same time, the most loss-making movies were also new genre films, and the loss-making movies were far more than the big-box office movies.
In such a situation, those businessmen will invest in new genre movies, and that is the head is caught by the door!
I can make money by patting casually, so why risk losing money?
In such a situation, the momentum of following the trend is getting stronger and stronger, and in the end, everyone goes to play follow-the-trend movies, and no one plays innovative movies.
And this is also a turning point for Chinese films to suddenly turn from prosperity to decline!
You must know that no matter what it is, there is only one ending for sitting and eating the old book, and that is decay!
Then, Huaxia movies completely died on following the trend!
Later, fans all over the world discovered that Chinese movies were eating their old books, because her genre was turning around, and there were only a few!
And these types, they are tired of watching them!
You know, no matter what it is, if you watch too much, you will have aesthetic fatigue.
Then, there was no innovative Chinese movie directly gg, and at this time, Hollywood began to emerge!
She opened up the world with a series of innovative films, and then successfully reached the top, becoming the biggest mecca of world cinema.
Let's get back to business.
Lin Xian was reading some netizens' comments on "Resident Evil" at this time.
"Anyway, Resident Evil is definitely the best horror movie I've ever seen!"
"Actually, I'm not a horror fan, but after watching Resident Evil, I found that I fell in love with the horror series!"
"Netizens have a hunch that "Resident Evil" will create history again, and I estimate that "Resident Evil" can get at least 300 million US dollars at the global box office!"
"With a total investment of 50 million Chinese dollars, if you really get 300 million US dollars in the end, then I can only say that who can compare to Liu Lan compared to making money?"
ā¦ā¦
"Knock knock!" There was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" Lin Xianlang said.
Then, Xu Tao, who was dressed in professional attire, walked in, and her face was still full of joy!
"What's the matter?" Lin Xian asked.
Xu Tao replied: "Editor-in-Chief Lin, the box office of "Resident Evil" on the first day in China has come out! ā
Lin Xian was slightly stunned, "This is coming out?" ā
Then, Lin Xian looked at the time, it was already half past eleven in the morning, and before he knew it, three hours had passed, and it was almost noon.
At this time period, it's time to come out.
"How much?" Lin Xian immediately asked.
Lin Xian is still very concerned about the box office of "Resident Evil" on the first day in China, because Huaxia is not only the second largest box office in the world, but also Liu Lan's territory.
Lin Xian hopes that Liu Lan will create a historical record again!
Among the top 100 masterpieces in the history of the global film box office, there are still too few Chinese movies, which does not match the status of the Chinese box office in the whole world!
"Ninety-three million dollars!" Xu Tao replied.
"Ninety-three million dollars? Didn't break 100 million? Lin Xian asked in surprise.
I have to say that Lin Xian's requirements for "Resident Evil" are a bit high!
"Editor-in-Chief Lin, you forgot that the box office of "Resident Evil" on the first day does not have a zero box office!" Xu Tao smiled dumbly.
"Oh, yes, look at my memory! "Resident Evil" will be on the shelves at 8 o'clock in the morning, and if there is a zero box office, it will properly break 100 million! Lin Xian patted his brain and said with a smile.
Although there are not many movies on the shelves during the Chinese New Year, "Resident Evil" still has a very high film scheduling rate, which is 45%!
Almost half of the country!
And the ticket price of "Resident Evil" is not as much as that of "Inception", and it will be on the shelves at eight o'clock, so the box office of 93 million Chinese yuan is already very much!
"How much attendance!" Lin Xian asked.
"Attendance during the day is 100 percent!"
Lin Xian nodded, this attendance rate did not surprise Lin Xian!
"Attendance before 11 p.m. is 100 percent, and after 11 p.m. attendance is only 98 percent!" Xu Tao continued.
If anyone knows that Xu Tao uses only two words to describe the 98% attendance rate, I don't know how those great directors in China will feel!
If they had a 90 percent attendance rate, they would have offered high incense to worship the Buddha. (To be continued.) )
