Chapter 385: "World of Warcraft" Released (Part II)

At the time of the release of "World of Warcraft", "Initial D" was also premiering elsewhere, with a lineup that was no worse than "World of Warcraft", film critics with stern faces, whispering reporters, and an excited fan base.

"Good racing movie, but the actors can't, it looks like a vase, oh, sorry, it's not a vase, it's a statue, I really don't know why such a movie would find someone from the music industry to play it, could it be that the director of the crew thinks that everyone can go to the film industry to win the Blue Dragon Award after reaching the top of the music world like Li Lin?"

The film critic wrote a comment on his own notes for a while, and the current review is a draft of tomorrow's film review.

"Three-star movie, the plot is good, but the actors are too bad."

The film critic gently scored in his heart.

The movie has five stars.

The highest five stars represent the classics, four stars represent worth watching, three stars represent the ordinary, but the viewers do not watch, two stars represent not good, do not build yì watching, and one star represents bad movies.

Wang Youcai of United Cinemas rubbed the jade wrench on his thumb, his face was indifferent, "What is the reaction of the film critics?" ”

"Generally good, but not too high."

"What about the fans?"

"Fans think it's good, it's worth watching, and some fans are very excited."

Suddenly, Wang Youcai was relieved, although the theater chain has to watch the film critics' films, but it is more about the audience's reaction, what the audience likes, what the theater shows is the same.

"What about World of Warcraft?" Wang Youcai asked again, he always remembered his opponent.

The box office of "Initial D" doesn't matter. The important thing is to overpower "World of Warcraft", and not let Wanda and Gold Medal turn over.

35 theaters across the country are enough, and there is no need to expand to 38 theaters. And one of the remaining two is a real estate predator, and the other is also well capitalized.

"It's like ......." When he saw Wang Youcai's face darkened, he blurted out, "Rave reviews!" ”

"Rave reviews?"

"They have rave reviews?"

Wang Youcai roared like an angry lion, "You sue me and they have rave reviews? ”

"Whose American blockbuster is not suitable for China? Who said that America's blockbusters can't fight China's? Now you sue sΓΉ me rave reviews? ”

"The previous American blockbusters were indeed not suitable for China, but they ......." The people who came couldn't say a word at all.

How does he know why World of Warcraft is so popular? is also an American blockbuster, "Spider-Man" has a box office of 40 million. Batman's box office was even more miserable.

Except for one "Titanic" that was still pressed overhead, other American blockbusters almost all collapsed, giving up box office records to Chinese movies.

That's why the evaluation department made the decision to put "Initial D" against "World of Warcraft".

"Forget it." Wang Youcai saw him like this and knew that he couldn't give an explanation. "We started reaching out to journalists and asking them to focus on the box office."

"In addition, I urgently contacted some manufacturers outside, and I must prepare a small gift before the end of the market, and I will send it over in person."

Take people softly, eat people with short mouths. Giving a small gift can't change a critic's mind. But at least it can make them a little softer when they go down the mouth.

Time ticked by, and the films shown in both theaters entered the wonderful part, the racing skills of "Initial D" made the audience scream, and the war scenes of "World of Warcraft" amazed all the fans and critics present.

"Blockbuster, what is a blockbuster? I'm finally what a blockbuster is now, and after The Lord of the Rings, World of Warcraft will be the new classic. ”

"I can predict that this film will become a trend in China."

An editor-in-chief glanced at the fans behind him. Although the light was dim, he still felt that the atmosphere of the scene had been completely mobilized by World of Warcraft.

Those movie fans. They were all so excited that they couldn't help themselves.

"The next Titanic may be born from here."

"Fortunately, I didn't choose to go to "Initial D", my colleague has already sent a message, "Initial D" is just good."

"It's worthy of a large-scale production with an investment of 150 million US dollars, from the picture to the scene, all of them are amazing, Peter Jackson's sword is not old."

"We, Toho Japan, will fully support the release of "World of Warcraft"." The people of Toho Co., Ltd. said excitedly: "I believe that this film will definitely create a miracle in Japan." ”

"Is it support or suppression?" The people of Xijie Entertainment are entangled, as businessmen, they should vigorously support a big production like "World of Warcraft", after all, "World of Warcraft" has their interests in the box office.

From the standpoint of Korean filmmakers, the introduction of "World of Warcraft" will have an unimaginable impact on the Korean film market, and now the Korean film and television industry is in a stormy time.

The film industry and the South Korean government have a fierce quarrel over whether to open the market, and countless film companies, directors, behind-the-scenes staff, and stars are involved.

At this time, they strongly support World of Warcraft, which is likely to offend a large number of people.

"Forget it, leave this matter to the president to deal with, anyway, there is a tall man on top of the sky falling."

Syllable!

The lights came on, the film ended, and thunderous applause suddenly rang out, and film critics, reporters, and fans were all applauding and cheering for this "World of Warcraft".

"Look, our film has conquered critics."

Li Lin said with a smile: "Maybe we can have a bumper harvest at the box office." ”

Generally speaking, art films focus on word-of-mouth, and special effects blockbusters focus on the box office, but there are movies in this world that have a double harvest, such as "The Lord of the Rings", such as "Jaws", such as "Titanic", once the word-of-mouth box office is double-harvested, the box office of the movie will be like a car with a space engine, and it can't stop when it rushes.

That night, a large number of posts rushed out of major film and television forums, post bars, and meager ones.

"Wonderful! It's wonderful, I have to say, World of Warcraft is wonderful. ”

"This is the real blockbuster, and the $150 million World of Warcraft didn't disappoint me."

"A fantasy classic, Peter. Jackson's most wonderful fantasy film after "The Lord of the Rings", "The Lord of the Rings" is the first and it can be the second. ”

"World of Warcraft brothers, World of Warcraft is wonderful, everyone must not miss it, I dare to pack tickets, those who miss it will definitely regret it."

The next day, all the newspapers and magazines published reviews of "World of Warcraft" and "Initial D", and as for the other movies, they have long since completely lost their attention under this attention.

Li Lin yawned, dragged his dark eyes, and his gaze fell on the magazine.

"$150 million in the big production zuΓ², Peter. Jackson's pinnacle work, comparable to the World of Warcraft of The Lord of the Rings. -- Contemporary cinema.

"Yesterday the premiere of "World of Warcraft", the author was very happy to go."

"For Peter. I've always been interested in the work of Jackson, especially World of Warcraft, which was compared to The Lord of the Rings from the beginning. ”

"And now the author is glad that he went, otherwise the author might have to face the ridicule of his peers."

"Perfect graphics, great storytelling, plus Peter. The war scenes that Jackson is good at, I suddenly don't know what words to use to describe them. ”

"A fantasy classic, a fantasy classic that rivals or even surpasses "The Lord of the Rings", a milestone in fantasy works."

"Congratulations Peter. Jackson, the King of Fantasy's hat may be on your head. ”

"In addition, congratulations to the investor Gold Group this time, you ate egg whites and egg yolks for the first time, and the eggshell was perfectly peeled off by you, congratulations."

The sprinkling of beautiful words appeared directly in heavyweight film and television magazines like "Contemporary Film Industry", as for "Initial D"? Sorry, in front of World of Warcraft, there is no place for you to be presumptuous.

On the same day, the major crowds began to gather in full force.

"What about "World of Warcraft", Nima's, I've been waiting for "World of Warcraft" for so long, just waiting for "World of Warcraft", you sue me for nothing? Are you kidding me? ”

At the entrance of the new United Film Theater, countless fans surrounded the ticket collector, a picture of me not leaving if you don't give a ticket.

It's not 14 years now, and the number of theaters and the Internet has not yet been completely connected, and fans need to go to the theater to buy tickets in person to know what the theater plays.

"What? Not really? You eat! ”

This kind of scene plays out all over the country, and for Warcraft fans who have been waiting for months, there's nothing more embarrassing than a movie being released in theaters but not being released.

"What about the global release? Why did I run three theaters and didn't have any. ”

On the forum, someone angrily posted, "Is World of Warcraft released worldwide?" ”

"The gold medal cinema sent a congratulatory message, the landlord is really pitiful, I just watched "World of Warcraft"."

"Wanda Cinema Line sent a congratulatory message, and I smiled proudly."

"Upstairs, Nima's "World of Warcraft" is only screened in Gold Medal Cinemas and Wanda Cinemas in China, but I recommend going to Gold Medal Cinemas, because Gold Medal Cinemas have giant screens, super shocking, and perfect interpretation of the big scene of "World of Warcraft".

"What is a giant screen?"

"In the IMAX theater, the movie is shown on the giant screen, which is super shocking, and the feeling is simply refreshing."

"Oh, I'll go right away, save some money this month, I should be able to save thirty yuan, alas, I'm going to eat instant noodles again in the morning."

"Thirty bucks want to go to the IMAX theater? I'm sorry, you can only go to an ordinary theater to watch the ordinary version, the IMAX theater needs a hundred oceans to go, Sao Nian, you don't have enough money. (To be continued......)
