Chapter 204: The Dismal Film Market

After May, with the announcement of the Palme d'Or, the domestic film market suffered a strong impact for the first time.

Even though domestic directors and entertainment companies have temporarily given up the Palme d'Or, after the opening of the cultural wall, domestic theaters have begun to favor overseas films.

A lot of blockbusters have poured into the domestic market like waves, and the market that was originally exclusive to the domestic film industry has been directly squeezed out of more than half!

For example, Forshny, the world's film giant, controls some of the most amazing IPs in the world today!

They used to start as anime movies, and they have developed step by step to the present, and they can be said to be a real behemoth!

""Pirate King 7" is so good-looking, that special effect is really full, it is not comparable in China!"

"The sci-fi movie "Space Wars" is really awesome, their imagination is amazing!"

"Come and see the recently released "Primordial Forest", a 3D anime movie! Fushini's technology is simply too mature, this piece is much more mature than domestic movies! ”

In such a piece of sound, the domestic film industry has also suffered from the end of winter.

All of a sudden, all the companies that rely on making movies to make a living are a little confused.

In the face of overseas large-investment films, they feel at a loss as to how to survive under the impact of this market.

Jiuding Times, Film and Television Department.

"According to what you say, in the future, our film and television department will simply be disbanded, anyway, we will lose money by filming anything!"

"Can't find your way? If you can't find it, you'll have to find it for me! ”

"Alas, in this situation, the board of directors also expressed understanding, and it is okay to pay one or two movies in the early stage."

"What we need is progress, we can't afford to lose so much money and only have one experience not to make movies, right?"

The head of the film and television department was talking to several well-known directors under his hands, and in the small prime time in May, several movies they released were miserable at the box office.

Domestic fans are tired of watching their films, and when they go to the cinema, they all buy overseas big special effects movies.

Even the name of the actor is no longer useful, and the old-fashioned things can no longer arouse the audience's idea of buying tickets.

For this reason, major domestic cinema chains have also begun to reassess the market.

They are thinking about whether to set aside more theatrical schedules for overseas movies in the next prime time?

Movie theaters also have to make money, and this small prime time in May is really disappointing for them.

originally thought that no matter how bad the domestic film company was, it would not be completely crushed by overseas films.

But as soon as the results came out, many theaters were disappointed, and specially reserved the general film schedule for domestic movies, but they didn't expect that they couldn't watch it at all because of the miserable box office.

On the other hand, overseas big movies such as Fushiny, Warner, and Pamira have been widely praised in China, and almost every one of them is full.

Hengda Cinema, which is a chain cinema brand with a scale in all cities across the country, has the most advanced projection equipment and the best service.

Today, the senior management of Hengda Cinema met and held a brief meeting.

"Alas, domestic movies are really useless, if it weren't for the overseas movies this time, maybe the financial reports in May would have been lost!"

The data report for May is presented in the hands of shareholders, looking at the stark data comparison, even the pig brain knows how to arrange the theater schedule in the future.

"Jiuding's side is really not good, you can see the decline since last year, and that Director Cheng's work can't even beat a new Shen Feng!"

"Vote, if you agree to release more overseas movies in the October prime time, please raise your hand."

The shareholders gathered in a circle, and under the questioning of the president of Hengda, everyone pondered.

At present, it is a clear fact that if you blindly take care of the ideas of several major domestic film companies, you will lose money in the end.

The cinema schedule is given to domestic films, but there are very few people watching them when they are released, and every vacant position in the prime time is a great loss.

Soon, one by one, the shareholders raised their hands.

More than eighty percent of the shareholders raised their hands to agree with this decision, they are not willing to go against overseas films, after all, who will get along with money when they come out to do business?

This is by no means an isolated case, in addition to the Hengda accident, many local theaters and other big-name chain theaters have also made similar decisions.

"There are so many audiences, they like overseas movies now, no way, no way, if you don't row this, the audience will go to other movie theaters!"

Hearing the answers given by various theaters, the three major domestic film and television departments are also a little desperate.

Good days, at the end of the day!

Galaxy Entertainment, Film and Television Department.

Minister Liang, who was proud last year, looks haggard today.

"Think of a way, everyone, if we continue like this, we will all lose our jobs." Minister Liang pillowed the back of his head in his hands and looked at several well-known directors in the department in front of him.

Director Wang and Director Qian are impressively listed, last year with Shen Feng's script "Let the Bullets Fly" can be said to be comfortable to death, but I didn't expect to face such a situation in less than a year.

"Time has passed, and now the tastes of the audience have changed, and we must change with it."

"Improve the quality of your work, whether it's special effects or storytelling, try to push it to the limit!"

"It's better to... It's better to be able to shoot something new, at least to keep the audience interested! ”

Several directors have expressed their opinions, and they are also well-known in the industry to be able to join Galaxy.

In the face of today's film winter, if they don't think about making some changes and adjustments, they are likely to be eliminated by the market tomorrow.

Minister Liang sighed, didn't he think of what he just said?

But it is difficult to implement!

Increasing special effects is increasing investment in movies.

Excellent stories, how can you get them so easily!

"Alas, a hint to you!" Minister Liang spoke: "Traditional culture!"

As soon as these words came out, several directors were a little confused.

Traditional culture? Shouldn't you learn from overseas, but also discover your own traditional culture?

The blind stubbornness of the film industry is likely to be a head-bump and break the bloodstream!

"What does traditional culture mean?" A director asked tentatively.

"A lot, such as our martial arts! And a long history! Last year's "Hundred Flavors of the World" was good, and it can be discovered! ”

"As long as you shoot excellent works on this basis, domestic theaters must also release films to us as much as possible!"

"At present, the above is also anxious to think about cultural output, the current situation is not what they want to see, as long as this purpose can be achieved, there is no need to worry about the future film arrangement!"

As soon as these words came out, many directors pondered.
