Chapter 389

Just when Lin Mu was worrying about poss, he hoped that another movie of the film and television group would be released on the New Year's schedule!!

It's just ......

"Alien" !!

The film plan formulated at the beginning of the year took nearly a year to produce, and a team from the Huaxia branch of Hope Special Effects Company was mobilized to finally complete the production of the film "Alien".

Early October. "Alien" completed post-production and was sent to the Modu Radio and Television Bureau.

The staff member who reviewed the film happened to be the one who reviewed "The Grudge". This time, he did not have a pale face or trembling hands, but was very excited to hand the audit results to the staff of Hope Film and Television.

One knife does not cut, and the rating is R grade (restricted grade. Children under the age of 17 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian to view. )

And the theater schedule. Hope Film and Television will give the third version of "Alien" to 34 theaters (plus 3 theaters in Taiwan.) 34 in total). After watching it, some theaters were not optimistic about the movie, and only gave an 8% film scheduling rate. Some are very confident in the trees, so they give a 20% film scheduling rate.

In total, the number of screens allocated to "Alien" across the country has reached 1428, which is much stronger than "The Grudge", on the one hand, thrillers have more audiences than horror films, and on the other hand, the popularity of "The Grudge" has surprised the theater side, and most theaters are looking forward to "Alien" being able to inherit the popularity of "The Grudge".

The schedule scheduled by the theater side for "Alien" is to be officially released nationwide on November 15 (Friday), and it is worth mentioning that Taiwan's release schedule this time is also keeping pace with the mainland.

After the file was finalized, the Propaganda Department of Hope Film and Television Group began to promote "Alien" on a large scale.

The posters began to be distributed to all corners of the country on a large scale, and the online publicity was also overwhelming......

"This is a thriller that is not inferior to The Grudge!!"

"This is the story of an alien horror creature......"

"It's about wandering in the universe and then constantly evolving in DNA and adapting to super-adaptable alien monsters......"

In addition to these promotional slogans, Hope Film and Television Group also branded this film as 'Lin Mu Roll Call Recognition' without restraint.

Although it is a bit complaining to hope that film and television will always use the words "Lin Mu Named and Recognized" to promote movies, every "recognized" movie can get a high box office and high reputation in China or around the world. Lin Mu has become a vane for the films within the Hope Film and Television Group, and has also become a reference for fans to choose movies.

God knows when he had such box office appeal.

――――――――――――

Zheng Jiebo walked out of the movie theater with a lot of emotion, his body was still not completely relaxed, and his head was still thinking about the picture of "The Grudge" just now. High-quality sound, clear screen ...... The supreme sensory stimulation brought to Zheng Jiebo.

Zheng Jiebo has watched "The Grudge" six times, and each time he can give him a different sensory stimulation, terrifying, but very cool!! Although the plot of "The Grudge" seems a bit messy, the well-set messy plot makes the movie more suspenseful.

And Zheng Jiebo feels that there are deeper things waiting for him to dig in "The Grudge", such as how did Gacoco kill people? Who would be the target of her murder?

One problem after another was solved, but one problem after another appeared, making it difficult for Zheng Jiebo, who wanted to get to the bottom of it.

Watching movies sometimes explores what is in the movie, which will make fans enjoy the process of watching movies even more, and Zheng Jiebo is such a person.

Back at home, turning on his computer, he taps on the keyboard again to share his sixth movie-watching experience. The keyboard clicked and clicked, and an hour later, a review of The Grudge was finally released. More than 5,000 words, covering the viewing experience, plot analysis, and some in-depth explorations of curses.

"If you submit this film review to the newspaper, you should be able to get a little manuscript fee......"

At this moment, a QQ pop-up window appeared: "**, recently the king recommended another movie, it is a thriller, have you heard of it?" ”

Zheng Jiebo looked at it and typed in the reply box: "I don't know, what's the name?" Is it good-looking? ”

The other party quickly replied: "You don't know? The movie is called "Alien", and it hasn't been released yet, if you go and check the information, I feel that this movie may be more interesting than "The Grudge". ”

"So powerful? Okay, I'll take a look and talk back!! Zheng Jiebo hurriedly switched the computer window, came to the browser, and quickly clicked on the official website of Hope Film and Television Group, which is the first in the favorites, which is a habit of Zheng Jiebo and a habit of most fans in China.

The network speed is very fast, and it suddenly enters the official website, and at the top of the homepage of the official website, a big box is written with a few big words-

"The alien monster 'alien' is coming!!"

"Humans!! Fear it!! (It's the bad taste of the woods)

And its background picture is a black monster with a hideous and strange appearance, and when Zheng Jiebo saw it, he didn't know why he had the illusion of being at the bottom of the food chain.

The monster had two thick legs, two long claws, a strange long head, a huge mouth with cold teeth, and a trace of saliva hanging from its mouth, dripping down.

Zheng Jiebo also discovered that behind it, there is a long tail that resembles a human backbone.

Then Zheng Jiebo browsed the information of the entire movie, there were only forty or fifty stills, and many monster pictures made him straight. And Hope Film and Television Group's description of this monster and this movie is-

"This is the most ferocious alien monster in the universe!"

"This is an alien monster that can evolve quickly and adapt to the environment!!"

"This is a biological weapon? Or is it God? Or is it a conspiracy against humanity?? ”

"This is the beginning of a series of movies with a grand background, please keep your eyes open!!"

It's only a short four sentences, but it gives people a sense of incomprehension.

It is undeniable that Zheng Jiebo was deeply attracted by the introduction of these films, and it is like a huge mystery, waiting for Zheng Jiebo as an adventurer to explore. After Zheng Jiebo finished reading the official website and the official website forum, he came to the horror film forum that is often flooded, and he was stunned to find that the forum was full of topics about "Alien" at this time.

"When "Alien" was released, we formed a group together, and Changzhou started to !!"

"Is Monk Huahua here? Is the innocent nun here? When "Alien" is released, let's go mix it together?? ”

"Watch movies, write movie reviews, get paid!!"

The forum is lively, and the demons are dancing!!

On November 10th, it was still 19 o'clock in the **, and Hope Film and Television Group announced the trailer of "Alien" for the first time. Zheng Jiebo, a group of fans who love horror thriller movies, sat in front of the computer early, waiting for the trailer to be released.

At the beginning of the trailer for "Alien", the eerie background music sounds......

The scene cuts to the starry universe, where a spaceship jets through space......

The scene suddenly shifts to the interior of the spaceship, with a cold metal appearance full of sci-fi atmosphere, a person lying on the ground struggling, the center of his chest soaked red with blood, and several people around him are trying to help hold him......

Suddenly, his chest broke!!

A hideous little monster is revealed, and its sharp teeth seem to be about to be devoured!! The team members next to him were frightened and screamed in fear.

The camera turns again, and an octopus or spider-like thing is holding an astronaut's astronaut head helmet, white slime flowing everywhere, and the tentacles are constantly tightening!

The camera continues as a large monster is chasing the people on the ship, who are constantly running for their lives inside, breathing rapidly and with fear in their eyes......

When this trailer was released on the Internet, Lin Mu also watched this trailer for the first time. After seeing it, Lin Mu spoke very highly of it. The movie "Alien 1" was made in 1978, and the film technology at that time was still very backward, and those aliens were shot with props, and the movements were very stiff and inflexible. And in order not to let these special-shaped props not show flaws, the tone of the movie was deliberately dim to cover up the shortcomings brought by the props.

And this time and space is different, I hope that the special effects team of special effects is one of the most elite teams in the world, so the special effects of "Alien" are light effects, sound effects, spaceship equipment, weapons and various props, as well as the creation of that atmosphere. will be a hundred times better than the previous space-time.

The trailer is only 58 seconds, but Lin Mu thinks it is very successful, and Lin Mu is quite satisfied with the editor and director.

Lin Mu picked up the phone and dialed Bi Han's mobile phone: "After the release of "Alien", the promotion and release of the comics and games are ready, right?" ”

"Rest assured, you're ready." Bihan replied on the other end

At present, it has formed a solid alliance with Hope Films, games, comics and other companies, and when a movie is launched on the market, peripheral products begin to follow and be put on the market.

"Transformers" and "Bio-Apocalypse" games, manga and anime are now popular all over the world, and "Death is Coming" and "Fast and Furious" games also have millions of loyal fans around the world......

Many of the many film and television works of Hope Film and Television have been adapted into games and comics. At the same time, a large number of peripheral products have been developed. Every year, it brings more than one billion dollars of revenue to Hope Film and Television Company.

Film and television and peripheral products go hand in hand, which has become a mature business model for the development of film and television groups, and it is also an example for many film companies to learn from.

And "Alien" set a huge background 7 years ago, which is very suitable for games, comics, and adaptations. So at the beginning of this year, when "Alien" started filming. The game began to be developed. In July, the comics began to be printed.

As the release date of "Alien" is getting closer day by day, it is receiving more and more attention. Hope Film and Television Group also announced another piece of news -

"Another film in the Alien series, Alien vs. Predator, will be released nationwide a month later, on Friday, December 17."

After the news came out, many media were shocked: "Another "Alien" series of movies is about to be released? That's right? ”

It seems that Lin Mu is very confident in these two movies, those blockbusters in Hollywood generally don't dare to make two in a row, and they generally have to wait until the first one is released, and only when the movie is a big hit, will they continue to make sequels. However, where does Lin Mu's confidence come from? ”

However, what shocked the media even more is yet to come!!

On November 14th, the day before the release of "Alien", a confidential message came out within Hope Film and Television Group: ""Alien" began to set the background after "Transformers" in 2002, and 10 science fiction authors and three professors from Mizuki University were publicly invited to set the background for "Alien", and at the same time, the "Alien" five-part series, a series of comic books, and the book printing has been completed. ”

"At the same time, the Alien adventure game has been made. , comics, and games will all be released on the market after the release of "Alien". ”

"Boom ............"

As soon as this news came out, it was like a nuclear bomb dropped into the film industry, which caused a great shock in the industry!!

"Fake, right??" Their first reaction was that the secret message was unreliable. However, when the media went to Hope Film and Television Group for an interview, they quickly got a reply: "This news is true." ”

This time, they were really stunned!!

"Big !!"

"I started preparing 7 years ago! And university professors and science fiction writers were invited to study! ”

"When the writer was invited to go, it caused a huge sensation, but unfortunately there was no news later, and there were many media who ridiculed Tianwang Studio for doing stupid things, but I didn't expect it to be disclosed until now."

"Movies, comics, and games must have cost a lot of manpower and material resources, right? Aren't you afraid of this theme hitting the streets?? ”

"This is the great hero!!"

"Lin Mu is squandering his again, I don't know if this gamble can be successful!!"

"I'll tell you secretly, in fact, I want Alien and that Alien vs. Predator to hit the streets this time...... Well, why do I think that? Why? ”

After this national uproar, the popularity of "Alien" suddenly surpassed the popular movies released during this time/upcoming releases, and became the king of topics in the whole of China.

They're all talking about everything about Alien!!

They can't wait to see what this movie, which has been in preparation for 7 years, looks like? Is there any reason for Lin Mu to be so confident??

There are also many film companies that are thoughtful after seeing all this.

The chairman of China Film and Television Group thought: "Although the scale of my company is several times larger than that of Hope Film and Television Group, in terms of annual profit, it is only more than one billion, which is several times smaller than Hope Film and Television Group!" What is the reason? Presumably, most of the reasons are Lin Mu's genius and pride!! (To be continued.) )
