The live-action movie version of "Fate/Staynight" is claimed to be at least 200 million yuan, and there is no upper limit. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info¤, so much so that this movie has not yet started shooting, and it has been hailed as the most expensive blockbuster in the history of Chinese cinema.

In fact, this budget itself is a kind of propaganda, a kind of gimmick. This does not mean that the actual budget of the film is less than 200 million, it is just a propaganda exaggeration. In fact, Wang Qinian has no intention of saving money, nor does he plan to shrink the budget. However, coming up with an astronomical budget is in itself a preemptive preemption and a bulwark in publicity. At least, in the domestic market, blockbusters with a high budget will first attract the attention of the media and audiences.

Many viewers who spend money to watch movies still have to spend money to buy tickets, more than two hours of precious time, the value of watching blockbusters, and many people feel that watching small-budget movies is not worth it.

This is also the reason why many top directors are swarming to make blockbusters.

Sure enough, the exposure of the film plan and budget of "Fate/Staynight" quickly attracted the attention of the national media. So that the partner company did not spend much publicity budget, has achieved amazing publicity results. "Fate/Staynight" quickly surpassed "Harry Potter" and "Spider-Man" in China, and became the hotspot that attracted the most attention from young audiences. Countless two-dimensional fans began to have a common language with the three-dimensional entertainment audience because of "fate/staynight".

There is only one movie that can compare with the budget of "Fate/Staynight", and that is Zhang Yimou's "Hero"! As a milestone work of Chinese commercial blockbusters, this movie has not yet broken its record in terms of burning money.

However, the domestic box office of "Hero" is only more than 200 million yuan, of course. The results are record-breaking though. But relying on the domestic box office alone, it is still impossible to recover the cost. Fortunately, the overseas box office of the movie "Hero" is very beautiful, whether it is Japan, North America or Europe, these important box office areas, the box office is a big hit. Plus. This film diffracts various commercial interests, such as making Zhang Ziyi and others more popular into international superstars, and Zhang Yimou proving himself in commercial blockbusters, which are all hidden benefits outside the box office of the movie.

Therefore, many people in the film and television industry want to participate in some blockbuster films to gild. Characters who have become famous hope to rub their popularity in blockbusters, brush their faces, and make their careers go further. And the little fresh meat that has not yet become famous. is a dream of good luck from the sky, favored by blockbuster directors, and became an instant hit.

I heard about the investment plan for a blockbuster like "Fate/Staynight", and the cast of the crew has not yet been determined. So, overnight, the whole circle began to stir. Countless superstars began to flatter and express their interest in "Fate/Staynight".

However, Wang Qinian will only select actors according to his own vision. For example, the protagonist Shirou Emiya. Wang Qinian chose Wu Jing. In addition, in terms of the Valhalla Palace, this is a pretending man, and Wang Qinian chose Ekin Cheng, who is very good at pretending.

Among these two characters, Emiya Shirou, who has a more innocent character, is a silly boy who is the protagonist's life. It is more suitable for Wu Jing's performance. In the past, many of the roles played by Wu Jing were very close to Emiya Shirou.

Shirou of the Heroic Guardian wants to erase his black history and try to kill his naïve self in the past. After all. Later, because of his innocence, he will lead to countless irreparable regrets. But, after all, it's not a self on a timeline, and Shirou of the Heroic Guard hasn't made up his mind to give another chance for himself to perform. However, the final result is that Shirou Eigong gave up killing another self, but sacrificed himself, released the "Infinite Sword System" ultimate, and self-sacrificed to protect the protagonist Emiya Shirou and others. This tragic back man, in terms of pretending, does have two brushes, even if he is not the most important role at the end of the play, he still shines, and in an instant, he robs the main characters.

"The key is saber ......!" Wang Qinian said with a little headache, he has seen the qualifications of actresses at home and abroad, and he doesn't feel that anyone's aura is close to Saber. Wang Qinian is unacceptable, and those more critical fans may be even more unacceptable.

In the end, Wang Qinian set his sights on the cosplay industry and offered a salary of 100,000~300,000 US dollars to cosplay fans around the world as a temptation to attract many ACG fans around the world to submit and recommend themselves. The way to self-recommend is to submit your own cosplay photos or videos to the official website of the audition opened by the partner company.

To this end, the partner company has allocated millions of dollars in funding and bonuses to encourage these contributors. Even if they are not selected by the movie, the top 100 candidates can get a prize of $2,000~$10,000.

Of course, there are also mysterious gift packs, including the Tianshu e-paper book of the partner company, the portable wireless router, and even, the mobile phone that the partner company is about to release. Of course, including the crew members, they didn't know that this event, and even this movie, caused such a big momentum, except because of Wang Qinian's love for "Fate/Staynight". There is also a lot of momentum for the movie first, and it will ...... in the future The momentum of the movie has been hyped, and the use of eyeball effect to promote the mobile phone of the little partner company is also a matter of course.

The mobile phone of the small partner company is similar to the future Apple mobile phone and the mobile phone of the Android camp. It's just that the influence of partner companies is not as good as that of world-class technology giants such as Apple and Google. On the contrary, the impression of the small partner company in the public's mind is that it is a comprehensive entertainment company. In the fields of film and television, animation, games, music, etc., the partner company is a well-deserved giant.

In the Asian market, there is no entertainment company that can compare with its peers. The popularity and fans accumulated in entertainment are already the most important resources and moats of the small partner company, so even if Wang Qinian knows that smartphones in the future are a bigger outlet, he will not easily give up the main business of entertainment.

With that, the little partner company released many character auditions for "Fate/Staynight". Of course, it is impossible to put all the characters out for audition. But...... The light is released by Saber (Artoria), Lancer (Library. The characters of the five Heroic Followers, Rider (Medusa), Caster (Medea), and (Pseudo) Assassin (Sasaki Kojiro) were selected from cosplay enthusiasts around the world. It is enough to generate a huge attraction.

All of a sudden, cosplay enthusiasts from all over the world responded.

Although the entire selection process only lasted for one month, the partner company has carried out advertising in the world's heavyweight media, and the methods and mechanisms of the competition have all been effectively promoted. Mainstream cosplay lovers are definitely known to everyone.

Registered participants can not only design and make props and costumes by themselves, but also go to the branch offices of the partner company around the world to get the support of the props department, use the props provided by the partner company for free, and get the help of makeup artists and photographers.

This humane approach has resulted in more than 50,000 contestants from all over the world. Many players who are not in a position to prepare props and costumes are also helped by their partner companies. I got the chance to participate.

Because the number of participants is large enough, the momentum is also big enough, not only to win the attention of the world's ACG enthusiasts, but also to the attention of entertainment media and the general public.

"I found it, her! It's the perfect person for Artoria! Wang Qinian pointed to a popular American candidate in the official website of the "fate" movie character audition.

"An American?" Xiao Xiang said in surprise, "But." She's like Saber! ”

"Yes!" Wang Qinian smiled, "Blonde foreigner." There is an ethnographic advantage. However, there are at least thousands of contestants from European and American countries, and it is rare to have her so look-alike, and countless people on the Internet have commented. She is the reincarnation of Artoria, and I am also responding to the call of the masses! ”

The chosen Saber plays the stage name Maridah, because, originally a cosplay enthusiast, he has already gained a little fame in the cos circle in the United States. But it can only be regarded as an amateur cos actor.,You can only do some research in game exhibitions and fan activities.。 happened to meet the audition role of "Fate", so with the encouragement of a friend, I signed up for it.

However, as long as there is an opportunity to display, it is gold that can easily shine.

After the audition, the staff of the American branch of the partner contacted Maridah and signed a film agency contract with her. Next, the official website of the "fate" movie audition also released the results of the audition competition one after another. Five lucky winners, who were awarded movie roles. Among them, one is from the United States, one is from Europe, and the remaining three are all from Asia. Two are Japanese and one is Indian......

The Japanese have a huge advantage in the second dimension, and the current Japanese box office market is still second only to the United States for the time being, for the sake of the Japanese box office market, let the Japanese contestants come out on top in the audition, Wang Qinian is not surprised. And the Indians won the ranking, also considering that although India is a strange country, the scale of the film market cannot be underestimated. In the future, China's market will grow to a certain extent, and the next step will definitely be to occupy and develop the Indian market. Even if the Indian market may not develop to the extent of the Chinese market in the future, if the Indian market can reach one-third of the Chinese market in the future, it may become the third largest market in the world, and the market potential will even exceed that of the Japanese market, which is now the second largest ticket warehouse in the world.

Of course, most Indians don't quite fit the aesthetics of East Asians, but after all, India has a high caste, and the 100 million high-caste Indians are not only different from other low-caste Indians not only in terms of social status, but also in terms of ethnicity. Many of the upper castes were aristocratic in the past, and the race was dominated by the colonial rulers of India in history, and was not the same race as the lower castes. And all walks of life in India are high-caste monopoly resources, and birth determines fate. The same is true in the entertainment industry, from entertainment company owners to actors, all those who can get ahead are Brahmins, Kshatriyas and other high castes.

Indian candidate Moni. Roy plays Caster (Medea), which is quite in line with her temperament. Probably because Indians are very suitable for acting in mythological dramas.

Of course, Wang Qinian didn't know, Moni. Roy later became the heroine of India's popular mythological drama "King of the Gods" - Satie (Sati), the wife of Shiva (Mohitraina), the god of destruction. (To be continued.) )
