Chapter 552: Front-and-back attack
PS: I went to drink the little niece's full moon wine, and I just came back! The update is late, forgive me!
Faced with the strangulation of three blockbusters, no wonder Liu Yue is so cautious! Even though she has seen the demo, she still has no confidence!
After all, none of the three blockbusters are easy to match, and to put it mildly, "Source Code" and these three blockbusters are not at all a grade in terms of popularity and investment!
"Hacker Empire 4" doesn't need to say more, this is definitely a real special effects sci-fi blockbuster, the first three parts of "Hacker Empire", from the first one released in 1995 to the third one released in 2006, although like other series of movies, starting from the first amazing, the sequel after that has been controversial and criticized in terms of plot, but for science fiction films, many times, the impact of the plot is not too great!
Especially for a sci-fi blockbuster like "Hacker Empire", which has a top-notch global influence, the fan base cultivated is huge! Even if a word-of-mouth is not as good as one, it is still not comparable to a film like "Source Code" whose production cost is not even as much as the other party's publicity expenses!
It hardly takes much time to think about it, 90% of people will make a choice between the two films, and that is to choose between the two to watch Hacker Empire 4!
And the remaining ten percent are die-hard fans of Tang Feng and the star of this film, as well as some curiosity hunters who want to see what Tang Feng's second sci-fi film will be like when he creates a miracle movie like "Immortality"!
Tang Feng is not surprised at all by such a situation, not to mention, there are still two blockbusters waiting for him, it can be said that "Source Code" will face the joint strangulation of three major productions!
Of course. Such an obvious joint strangulation, not to mention Tang Feng, can be seen at a glance by the media in the outside world, this is definitely a premeditated action against "Source Code" or Tang Feng!
And the mastermind behind the scenes, naturally, is self-evident! The main reason why Tang Feng was able to have his current status was because of his miraculous achievements in the past. That miracle after miracle made Tang Feng have a dazzling halo on his body! But in fact, Tang Feng's biggest aura is his undefeated record!
Yes, the undefeated record, looking at Tang Feng all the way to the present, he has almost never encountered a defeat, and has repeatedly turned the impossible into a possibility, creating one miracle after another, at least so far. He is definitely a victorious general, and once he fails, even once, then Tang Feng, whose undefeated golden body is broken, will have the aura on his body fade all at once!
In the film and television industry, although Tang Feng is also friendly with some film and television giants, and even alliances, it is still the same sentence. The alliance of the four major commercial television groups is an alliance of interests, and the alliance formed by these film and television giants around Tang Feng and him is not an alliance of interests?
They fancy it. Tang Feng can bring benefits to them, if Tang Feng fails, once the undefeated golden body is broken, then, next, he will face the full ban of the four major commercial TV groups. And by that time, will his allies still have that much confidence in him?
So, this time, again, he has to win. However, almost no one in the outside world thinks that Tang Feng can win, it is really because the opponent is too strong!
"Let's release it as scheduled, it's not the way to escape, and, do you think, they're going to let us escape?" Tang Feng said lightly!
"This" Liu Yue was speechless, she also knew that this time, the other party wanted to break Tang Feng's undefeated golden body, and even did not hesitate to change the release date, so naturally Tang Feng would not be allowed to escape so easily!
"Actually, I think this may be an opportunity for us too!" Tang Feng said again!
"Opportunity?" Liu Yue's first instant reaction was, is Tang Feng crazy, is this still a chance?
"First of all, the "Hacker Empire" series, except for the first one, has a reputation that is not as good as one, and the "Hacker Empire" series of movies is a science fiction movie based on special effects, and in terms of plot, it has always been the object of complaints!" Tang Feng said with a smile!
"What do you mean" Liu Yue was a little puzzled Although "Hacker Empire", or in other words, most of the sci-fi blockbusters in the United States rely on special effects to win, and in terms of plot, it is not as exciting as some low-budget movies!
"Originally, I was still worried about the promotion of the film, but now, I think this is an opportunity, in terms of fame, in terms of fan base, "Source Code" can't be compared with "Hacker Empire" at all, but you have also seen the sample, "Source Code" actually has not many special effects, or in the field of science fiction films where special effects are rampant, the special effects of "Source Code" can be called simple!"
"But have you noticed that in fact, "Source Code" and "Hacker Empire" actually have their commonalities to a certain extent, such as the world view, "Source Code" and "Hacker Empire" can be said to overlap to a certain extent, and we can use this as a publicity stunt!"
"Well, if you think about it, it seems to be true!" Liu Yue said a little abruptly!
"The "Hacker Empire" series of movies has a huge fan base, and for this fourth part, I think many fans have high expectations for it, but the common nature of this series of movies is that the plot is too weak and simple! If we associate Hacker Empire with Source Code for hype, it's first and foremost a free publicity! ”
"However, even if it is propaganda, no one outside is optimistic about "Source Code" now!" Liu Yue said!
"An investment of close to 700 million Chinese dollars, and a cost of only 50 million, and people are still a series of movies, it is normal for the outside world not to be optimistic about us, and this is exactly what I want!"
"The first wave of publicity, as long as the two movies are linked, it's best to associate us with Hacker Empire 4 every time, I don't mind that Source Code is used as a negative textbook!" Tang Feng said with a smile!
In fact, there is no need for him to say that after the news came out, whether it was the publicity of "Hacker Empire 4" in newspapers or online media, as long as someone discussed "Hacker Empire 4", some people would mention Tang's "Source Code"!
Aside from die-hard fans, almost no one thinks Source Code can compare to Hacker Empires 4!
However, this is not enough, in Tang Feng's opinion, this is definitely an excellent publicity opportunity!
In fact, Tang Feng didn't pay attention to these things, when writing the script of "Source Code", Tang Feng once searched for science fiction movies in this world on the Internet, especially "Hacker Empire", not to mention, when Tang Feng saw this film for the first time, he had the illusion that he had returned to the previous world, because this "Hacker Empire" is very similar to the "Matrix" in the previous life in many places!
And, in addition to the first part, the second and third parts were all at the box office, and they were almost scolded by science fiction fans! The reputation is not good, but the special effects are praised! (To be continued.) )
