Chapter 250: Movie Restrictions on Releases
"Be vigilant!! The film trade between the United States and China will turn from a trade surplus to a trade deficit! ”
The analysis lists in detail the box office data of some Chinese films, and specifically analyzes the comparison between the American film market and the Chinese film market.
American films can only be shown in China for 23 days, and there are only 25 film shares.
When Chinese films came to the United States, not only was there no limit to the number of movies, but there was also no limit to the release time. Originally, because Chinese movies were not very popular in North America, the introduction of several movies every year was also box office scum, and the box office of these films totaling $50 million in a year was already skyrocketing.
But things have changed dramatically in the past two years, first the "Death is Coming" series in North America box office, and then "Fast and Furious" and "Jaws" won the amazing box office, not only that, "Biochemical Apocalypse" directly achieved a terrifying box office in North America, directly entered the fourth place in the global film history box office, shocking the world.
From this time on, the situation of Huaxia films in the North American film market began to change, and more and more people gradually identified with Huaxia films.
And what brought all this was Wang Shang, a magical young director.
Subsequently, more and more young directors learned a lot of experience from Wang Shang and began to try to integrate Hollywood style into their films.
Until now, there is finally a film directed by Wang Shang that has won a high box office and high reputation in North America.
Then more and more films began to be introduced to the North American film market by Hollywood studios. Huaxia films in the North American market compared to before. The ability to harvest at the box office has grown considerably.
And what about American films? Because the Chinese market is not as big as the North American market, and because the Chinese government has restricted the admission of American films, the box office of the movie is not too much, and the box office is about 600 million US dollars a year.
The report directly pointed out: "With more and more Chinese films released in North America, this trade surplus is expected to be reversed soon." ”
"It is strongly recommended that the government begin to impose restrictions on the admission and release period of Chinese films in order to protect the American film market." After this report appeared, it quickly attracted the attention of many American filmmakers and media.
What happened in the United States quickly attracted domestic attention, and the analysis was reprinted one after another.
When Wang Shang heard the news, he was talking to Tang Zongshi about the release of the movie.
Wang Shang looked depressed and said to Tang Zongshi: "If the restrictive policy is really introduced. It is bound to make Europe and even other regions start film restriction policies. And "Biochemical Apocalypse 2" and "Fast and Furious 2" are not much less box office? ? ”
"This one is, but even so, it's still enough to make you more at the box office." Tang Zongshi smiled comfortingly, and then moved on to other topics. "Have you heard about the recent events on the Internet??"
"What's the matter?" Wang Shang looked up. looked at Tang Zongshi curiously. "I haven't been online much during this time."
"There was a 'cat abuse incident' on the Internet, and now it is very popular. Last week, a netizen posted a set of screenshots of a cat abuse video online. Soon. Another netizen put the URL of the "cat trampling" incident on the "cat pounce" network, and the third netizen posted a photo of the woman who stepped on the cat on the "Tianya Community" and made a "cosmic wanted warrant" for netizens all over the world to report. As soon as the wanted warrant came out, many netizens donated cat coins and RMB to reward the murderer, and even the official of Maopu raised the bounty from 1,000 yuan to 5,000 yuan. ”
"Isn't this strange, you say? I've never seen anything like this before......" Tang Zongshi said with a slight surprise.
Wang Shang was stunned: "Isn't this just a human flesh search?" "In the former plane, this kind of doxing was not uncommon. Those who cause public outrage are often subjected to online doxing.
"Doxing? That's a very appropriate word......" Tang Zongshi added.
This cat abuse incident did not have any impact on Tang Zongshi, but Wang Shang thought of "Search" and thought of Ye Lanqiu, who was already dead.
When Wang Shang returned home from dinner, he deliberately went online to find this "Internet cat abuse incident", this topic is very hot on the Internet, whether it is Weibo, blogs, major forums have related posts, countless people have issued rewards, and everyone unanimously expressed great anger at this cat abuse heroine.
Wang Shang looked at the photos of cat abuse, which were very clear, and even Wang Shang's hair stood on end.
At this time, the queen mother came over with a bowl of sugar water, and inadvertently saw the picture, and her face changed: "This girl is like this?" How could you do such a cruel thing......"
Wang Shang hurriedly said that this was a fake picture, and then chatted with the queen mother about the family by closing the webpage......
On October 12, the 'cat abuse incident' that Wang Shang has been paying attention to finally made progress - netizen "I am not an angel in the desert" posted on the cat pounce: "This woman is ...... in a small town in Heilongjiang" His post made a key change in the incident.
At 12 noon on October 14, the three suspects in the cat abuse incident were basically determined, and it was only 6 days after the first netizen posted a picture of cat abuse on the Internet, and its efficiency may be no less than the speed of the police's case.
This doxing has also made countless people see the power of the Internet, and even countless people have begun to claim to be cyber police officers and feel that they have justice.
――――――――――
The time gradually came to October 18, and the third season of "The First Chaos in History" finally completed filming, and at this time it had released the 10th episode of the second season on the Internet.
In the first six weeks, the number of its video subscribers has exceeded 250 million, and the total revenue has reached a height of 1.5 billion yuan, successfully breaking through Wang Shang's "Step by Step" and "Legal Pioneer", and entering the fourth place in the history of TV series sales!!
This kind of terrifying achievement naturally aroused the envy and jealousy of countless production companies.
Many people have begun to analyze the fact that this TV series can achieve such terrifying results: "In addition to the good-looking TV series and the signature of Wang Shang, the last boycott of wind broadcast was a very successful passive marketing case. ”
There are also those who think that the multi-quarter may also be the reason for such high sales, and it is expected that after the third season of "The First Chaos in History" airs, the sales volume will be stimulated again. Many TV series have also been cut into season by the production company that can't help it, and they are released separately online.
In late October, there was another sensational news from abroad: "After the movie "Escape from Clone Island" was released in North America, it was well received, and it got a total of $60 million at the box office on Saturdays and Sundays in the first week! successfully occupied the fourth place in the single-day box office in these two days! ”
In addition to this news, several other films introduced by North American film companies have also received critical acclaim, although the box office is not as good as "Escape from Clone Island", but it is also quite good, and the box office in a few days has exceeded the box office of more than a month in China.
The domestic entertainment media warmly celebrated, dug deeply, and reported on these films throughout the whole process.
This is a major event that deserves the joy of Chinese filmmakers.
The achievements of these films in the North American market naturally make Chinese filmmakers excited: "The North American film market is not so difficult to get through. "A lot of filmmakers are gearing up and eager to try.
Some people are also beginning to worry about whether this will cause a backlash from the United States. Wang Shang also has such worries.
Sure enough, on October 28, the U.S. government issued a notice "Solicitation of Opinions on Improving Film Management Regulations and Management Measures".
Among the laws and regulations and specific management measures that need to be improved involved in the circular, there is a solicitation of opinions on restrictions on foreign films.
"There are restrictions on the import of Chinese films, with a limit of 25 films per year."
"There is a limit on the release time of Chinese films, and each film will be released within 25 days."
Wang Shang looked at the two lines of words in the newspaper, and suddenly became sad: "If these two restrictions are really passed and added to the specific management measures, then the box office of "Biochemical Apocalypse 2" and "Fast and Furious 2" will really ......." (To be continued......)
ps: There is another chapter in the evening, it is estimated that it is very late. For the time being, I can only 2500 words, which is very tiring. Learning to drive is really not easy to mix. Different cars have different standards for pouring piles, and it is easy to get out of the line and toss when you change cars.
