Chapter 792: Additional Effects

"Skye. Wu really didn't disappoint me, although "Myth" is an oriental-themed film, it is still good-looking. ”

"Okay, I'm a little disappointed, "Myth" is much worse than "District 9", but if you think of this as a popcorn movie, it's pretty good, and if you don't have high requirements for human nature and reasoning, this movie is really worth buying a movie ticket......"

"I never thought that that backward country would have such a powerful era, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty should be stronger than that of Rome at the same time......"

"Who would have thought that modern China would be so prosperous? Their expedition equipment is surprisingly advanced. The most important thing is that their actors are so beautiful...... Skye. Wu made me fall in love with this country......"

"There's no denying that it's an excellent movie, at least for a Chinese-language film, it's the best I've ever seen."

……

These evaluations are online evaluations,Almost all of the audience who are honored to get the premiere viewing qualifications can't wait to publish the film reviews for the first time,Overall,Everyone's attitude is quite pertinent,They all think this is a good hard film,But it's a little far from everyone's expectations,After all, Skye. Wu Ke is a director who has won the Oscar for Best Hard Film, and he is a legendary existence, and everyone's expectations for him are too high.

On the other hand, the evaluations of those professional film critics are completely two extremes!

"What kind of bullshit is this film! I saw the end from the beginning, only the chaos, one moment modern and one ancient, it was really difficult to understand what kind of story the director wanted to tell! ”

"Okay. I admit it. This film also has some merits. But the problem is that it is full of Chinese thinking patterns, and I think it is impossible for European and American audiences to understand. Wu's box office myth is about to be shattered, and I don't think it's possible for him to recoup his investment at all! ”

"This film is completely pale except for the gorgeous visual effects, the story lacks logic, and the most important thing is what exactly does he want to tell us? Transmigration? Or immortality? ”

"Skye. When Wu left Hollywood, he became as mediocre as those Chinese directors. He wasted his talent, and I was heartbroken about it. ”

"If I had to choose, I would recommend this film to be nominated for the Oscar for Best Score and Best Cinematography, but as for Best Picture and Best Director, I think it's still far from ......"

"I think this bad movie is also a good thing in a way, at least Skye. Wu understands what makes a really good movie - Hollywood is the only place that can help him make a good movie! ”

*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** *************

Wu Tian looked at the comments of these film critics, but his mood was not affected in the slightest.

As early as when writing the script, Wu Tian knew that this film did not echo the appetite of Hollywood film critics at all, and the pure oriental mythological story was not something that Europeans and Americans who only had God in their hearts could understand. Ordinary viewers are okay to say, but film critics are trying to cover up their shallowness. Not a word of kindness will be said.

Therefore, Wu Tian's filming target for this film. It is to please the audience, not to rush to the rave reviews of film critics and win awards at film festivals!

As a result, it is not surprising that the audience reviews are not bad, but the critics are slanderous.

Well, this may affect the box office of "Myth", after all, many viewers decide whether to buy tickets or not, and they decide based on the evaluation of the film review column. Therefore, Wu Tian formulated another response plan.

"When "Myth" was released, the audience praised it, but the critics criticized it more than once. What kind of film did Wu create? ”

This topic soon became a hot topic on major websites and newspapers in the United States, and most of the content was excerpts from the comments of some film critics and the comments of the audience, and it was obvious that the views of the two sides were completely different.

Then Skye. What kind of film does Wu bring to everyone?

Many people who read these articles can't help but be curious, thinking that they will evaluate it themselves to see whose point of view is correct.

What's more, neither the audience nor the critics have denied one point, that is, the visual effects and soundtrack of this film are quite top, so even if the film is as bad as the critics commented, it is okay to use the movie ticket as a concert ticket.

For a while, the box office of "Myth" began to heat up rapidly, and even exceeded MGM's expectations, and the summary results showed that the attendance rate on the first day after the premiere was only about 60%, but it reached 80% on the second day, and it continued to be full from the third day, even at midnight, the average attendance rate was nearly 90%!

It's hard to imagine that this seems to be repeating Skye again. The grand occasion of Wu's "Ghost Shadow Record" back then!

"Xiaotian, I really didn't expect these articles to bring such good results......" Qi Bing looked at the daily box office report happily, and he was simply happy.

"Of course, don't look at who I am!" Wu Tian said without modesty, you must know that Tianshao made his fortune with advertorials back then, and this method also works in the United States, one by one reports that seem to be presenting facts, but in fact, they are simply advertorials, which is to arouse the audience's curiosity, and want to personally verify whether the film is good or bad, and unconsciously go into the cinema.

There is no doubt that Wu Tian's goal was achieved, and he easily put all those curious audiences into the theater.

*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** *************

"Xiaotian, should we add some more screens?" Qi Bing put down the report and asked excitedly.

"Mythology" although it has Skye. Wu's aura. But after all, it is a thoroughly Chinese film. The theater owners of the United States are not willing to take risks casually - this is a Christmas file. The schedule was originally tight, of course, I wouldn't casually arrange too many playbacks for "Myth".

"Well, it's okay to add a few more, but don't do too much, and be careful to keep hungry marketing." Wu Tian said with the old god present.

"Mythology" is currently very hard to find a ticket, many networks on the Internet are complaining that there are too few broadcasts, they can't buy tickets, and even some places have already booked out tickets for the next two or three days.

And this is undoubtedly a kind of free publicity. It makes people want to see Skye in person. What exactly is Wu's new film? If too many screens are added at once, resulting in a serious drop in attendance, the rumor may turn into the impression that "no one is watching the theater at all, and maybe this film is not very good".

Qi Bing rolled her eyes at Wu Tian, she was powerless to complain about this treacherous guy for a long time, anyway, his decision was never wrong, just listen to his arrangement.

Qi Bing was busy calling the company to inform him of the arrangement of the screening, and the standard given was to ensure that the attendance rate should remain above eighty percent after the screening, and it could not decline too much. If you really can't do it, you can extend the screening period.

Normally. First, according to the quality of the box office, the release period will last for about half a month. Of course, there are also some small theaters that will keep some good and very popular films for two months or even longer, but the main screening period is one to three weeks, and the subsequent time is just in the morning or midnight screening, and the bits and pieces are a little more.

The pre-agreed screening period of "Myth" is two weeks, but according to the current situation, it is obvious that "Myth" belongs to the kind of film with long stamina, and the screening period will inevitably be extended, as for the box office results, it is somewhat difficult to estimate.

Of course, this is only the situation in the United States, in several countries in Europe that have a high acceptance of Chinese films, as well as island countries and stick countries that are also released on Christmas files, as well as Hong Kong Island and Taiwan Island, they directly grabbed the screen on a large scale at the beginning.

After all, there is not much difference in cultural acceptance, and it is easier for audiences in these regions to easily understand the cultural background of the film, and it is easier to accept the logic of the story.

And after the first-day box office in this part of the region that was released successively was quickly counted, Wu Tian finally smiled with relief, there is almost no doubt that among the films released in these regions at the same time, the first-day box office of "Myth" is the highest!

It seems that when I go back, I want to reward Lao Zhang, Brother Long, and Zhou Xiaomei, and they have been running around the world for publicity during this time, and it has finally had some effect......

*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** *************

"Brother Long's acting skills are really great, this is the rhythm of winning the actor!"

Hong Kong Island audience said.

"Skye. Wu is indeed a good director, and he expresses the two completely different styles of ancient and modern in "Myth" quite perfectly, perfectly showing the ...... of China."

The audience on Taiwan Island said.

"Strongly protested, the Qin Dynasty had not conquered the Korean nation at all, and it was even more impossible for the Korean nation to rely on and pray for peace. Oh wants the Korean nation to apologize......"

So said the audience in the country of sticks.

"I want to know, did Xu Fu and the five hundred boys and girls arrive at the island of Japan, and is the elixir of life in the film really found on the island of Japan? Qin Shi Huang has robbed us of our national treasure! ”

So said the Hijima audience.

Wu Tian looked at the comments from the audience from all over the world and smiled with satisfaction.

Although the clowns in the country of sticks are very annoying, the box office they contributed is very satisfying, and more importantly, their crazy comments on "Myth" prove one thing, that is, "Myth" has had an impact among them, and it is a big impact!

And as a Chinese movie, no matter how they shout, there is no doubt that they are exposed to Chinese culture, and the more fierce they are, the heavier the weight of Chinese culture will become in their hearts!

Cultural invasion can be subtle, unconsciously affected, or intense, so that they are unconsciously deeply poisoned in the resistance, and unconsciously automatically learn to imitate - the stick feels the threat of Chinese culture, and they will inevitably try to create better works to resist, and inevitably imitate some elements of "Mythology", which is actually equivalent to learning, is automatically baptized by Chinese culture!

The situation of Hijima is somewhat similar to that of Europe and the United States, they do not automatically learn to imitate in resistance, but because of their appreciation of this film, they are interested in China, whether it is the legend of Xu Fu, or the comparison of the combat effectiveness of the Qin army and Rome, they will be asked to study the history of China, and maybe some of them will be deeply attracted by China, have a deep understanding, become believers in Chinese culture, and even influence the people around them......

Perhaps relying on the influence of just one "Myth" is far from seeing much substantive effect, but once the Chinese culture that goes abroad - whether it is movies, songs, literary works, or even economic investment, can be counted, as long as more and more Chinese things are spread out, the gathered power is enough to let Chinese culture occupy a place!

"Myth" may not be the first step, but there is no doubt that it is a very important step, a very powerful step!
