Chapter 51: Offensive and Defensive Battles
"Mountains and Seas Establish an Anti-Piracy Alliance, Millions of Prizes Reward Whistleblowers!" 》
The next day, the media published the news, and the phone number and email address of the report were clearly published in the most conspicuous place: "Starting from the 'under the flyover' piracy booth, as long as you report it, once it is verified, there will be a bonus." The person who confessed to providing the source of piracy will not be responsible for the past, and the prize will be 100,000 yuan. ”
"Jingshi Evening News" received the money and specially sent a reporter to interview Xingxing, "Why do you spend so much money on anti-piracy with such fanfare?" ”
"I gave up my high-paying career in Hollywood to come back to my home country because I wanted to put down roots here. As long as I want to make movies in the future, piracy will always be the biggest enemy. It's not that there are no movie audiences in China, and everyone still loves to watch movies, but from the box office of two or three billion in the early 90s to the box office of seven or eight billion now, this is not accidental, it is the society that has forced it to fall here step by step. ”
"Everyone knows that piracy is so profitable, why it is so profitable, because he is illegal. If the law is not followed, the supervision of the relevant departments is not effective, or even simply ignore it, do they know which overpasses to buy pirated discs are illegal? I know, but I pass by without asking. In fact, the grand prize bounty is the most stupid act, thankless, but someone has to do it. ”
"I don't want to analyze the difference between Hollywood and China, it's meaningless, and any developing society has to face a lot of contradictions. In fact, the source is in the film circle, in copy factories, movie theaters, and audio-visual dealers. Towering trees, towering, wind does not shake, earthquakes do not fall, it seems difficult to push it, in fact, as long as the base of the tree is eaten by moths, it will not be pushed down. ”
"There was once a respected old man who borrowed Mr. Li Dazhao's famous words to tell me, "China sleeps like a lion? When you hear it, you will be excited; What is the disease of China? When I heard it, I was up. Those who build young people, the spirit of the country, those who 'morning bell', and the friends of youth. Young people should strive to respect themselves for the country. Young people also have a responsibility for the future of Chinese films. He bowed his hand to Dongfang, and spoke like a singing opera (refer to Zhang Zhen (Taoist priest descending the mountain)) and said: "The younger generation is new to the industry, and the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers." If there is any offense, it will be borne by the person. At the same time, we also sincerely invite major domestic film and television companies to join the anti-piracy alliance and jointly shoulder the important task of the rise of domestic films. ”
This anti-piracy alliance was originally led by Huayi in the future, and he proposed it several years ago, which instantly attracted the attention of the entire circle. When this reason was right, he was only 20 years old, and his tender mouth was hairless, and he was really a newborn calf.
But he raised himself to the moral high ground, with a posture of wanting to charge, which made people in the industry tired of seeing it. But the audience watched it very coolly, "Looking at what was said in writing, how can there be a taste of returning to the Republic of China during the Anti-Japanese War and vowing to sacrifice his life for the country." ”
Happy is also the first time, with a movie, with a statement of words and deeds, officially entered the eyes of the Chinese people, and step by step grew into a sensation in the future, everyone knows the emperor superstar.
However, the box office situation on the first day of the movie has attracted all of someone's energy, and saying this is at most a little bit of a contribution to publicity, and he can't care about the follow-up impact.
In one, I didn't look at the yellow calendar when I went out today, but I didn't think about it, but it was double happiness.
Happy was talking to Bao, "Bao, I suddenly found that your composition ability has improved a lot, especially the physiognomy of the characters?" ”
"Sir, I have copied the FBI facial recognition system in the United States, and the faces of more than a billion people around the world are recorded in detail."
Happy almost didn't bite his tongue, "You invaded the FBI again?" ”
"Yes sir, leave no trace." A smug cartoon panda smiles on the screen.
The expression on his happy face instantly became exciting, he knew Ah Bao's ability best, but ...... After a while, he said: "I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet...... Do you understand the meaning of this sentence? ”
"Yes sir, this is a Chinese folk saying, and I have a record in my database. It means that there are shoes that do not get mud and water when walking by the river, which reflects the impact of the environment on people, which is similar to the principle of 'those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black'. However, any action that Po does is done without violating the precepts, and with the supervision of the FBI system, the probability of finding me is less than 1 in 10 million. ”
An aggrieved expression also appeared on the screen.
Happy was unmoved, "Very good, it seems that your logical analysis ability has improved significantly, and you can hear what I have to say." ”
"But also understand that circumstances are only external factors for a person. Internal causes are the basis for the change and development of things, external causes are only the conditions for the change of things, and external causes can only work through internal causes. Therefore, we can't take it for granted that we can walk by the river without getting our shoes wet. You can't use walking by the river as an excuse for your shoes to get wet. Because as long as we stick to our principles and try not to walk by the river, then we can do not get our shoes wet. You...... Do you understand? ”
"Yes sir, but Ah Bao is ordered by you to learn to draw as soon as possible, and getting the face recognition system is the most effective way." is still aggrieved, just like a good baby who studies hard but is misunderstood and taught a lesson.
The phone rang over there, and he was a little upset when he was noisy, and he was speechless for a while: "Okay, it's me who is difficult for you." It's not that you should never do it, you have to do it in the presence of me in the future. Is it possible to be a good and obedient boy? ”
Po's expression immediately turned to joy, and the panda's face was full of flattering smiles: "Yes, sir." ”
"Yes, good."
happily praised it, and left the table to answer the phone that had already sounded in the sky, "Hey? ”
"Boss, I'm coming to China and I'm getting ready to board the plane." Is it Luo Kedi, he finally figured it out, or is it because Bai Xiaoya's phone call every day is too similar and too bitter, long-distance calls are very expensive. Happy and happy: "I should have come a long time ago, when will it be there, I'll pick you up." ”
"You wouldn't have guessed that I had moved Josel too. He was not happy with Pixar and wanted to change the environment. But now for you to nod, you have to be able to afford his salary? ”
"Josel? Josel? Harden. That's great news, and you've done a great job. Come on, I happen to have a little spare money. "Josel is a senior technical consultant for Pixar Animation, and I'm happy to know him well, this is a one-man general.
"But boss, you were also happy too early, he only promised to come to China to see your project, if you can't adapt to it, he will leave."
"Come on, the rest is up to me." Happy and full of ambition. After hanging up the phone, he found Bai Xiaoya, "Xiaobai, give you a task, you will pick up people at the airport on my behalf at seven o'clock tomorrow morning." ”
"Okay, boss." Bai Xiaoya nodded obediently.
"Hmm." Happy suddenly found that Bai Xiaoya, who was usually arrogant, was a little wrong in her tone today, "Huh...... You seem to know who to pick up? I was the second to be notified, this kid, forgetful. ”
Bai Xiaoya rolled her eyes, continued to work, and ignored him.
smiled happily, "That's right, this is the little white I am familiar with." ”
……
On Friday, the second day of its release, the box office of "Grand Central Station" rose slightly, rising to 230 theaters, and collectively won a daily box office of 2.47 million. On Saturday of the third day, Beijing Film Studio received a jaw-dropping report, with 325 theaters receiving 3.53 million at the box office on the third day. The average attendance rate rose to 45%, and the attendance rate of the two golden performances in the evening was as high as 60%, and social word-of-mouth and news reports brought the film to the table.
The country's poor statistical facilities cannot count the age level. Happy to spend a lot of money to hire the supervision team, volunteer team, but in accordance with the boss's regulations every day to make statistics. Unexpectedly, the film appealed to adults more than to young people. It seems that 60% of people are over 35 years old, and young people are not so interested.
If you think about it, it's clear.
After all, this movie doesn't have many elements that appeal to young people.
The film's continuous breakthrough of the domestic daily box office record also made Beijing Film Studio full of confidence and decided to print all the remaining copies. At this time, Xingxing stopped him, "Mr. Han, listen to me, it's already saturated." ”
500 copies, it's only 1998, can you use so much, 200 copies, it's all up to the sky. It is conceivable where so many copies are left to be screened.
"Even if it is released a month later in second-tier cities, it doesn't matter. But now it really can't be added. "Zhang Zhengwu, who is in charge of supervision, is under a lot of pressure, and he has to take hundreds of horses at once, and he has to do the work of spies, and he will not be suitable for anyone. The hotline set up by Happy has been hit hard recently, and piracy tapes have begun to flow out of the market, but fortunately they are all non-clear versions.
"I'm willing to bet that if this batch of copies goes out, the pirated tapes will definitely flow out, and the high-definition version of the video will immediately flow all over the country."
