Chapter 633 Special Effects Return to North America

The plane landed at Heung Kong Airport.

Then Li Hao got on the helicopter and came directly to the TVB headquarters.

This kind of thing is in Xiangjiang, if it is in the mainland, you can't do this.

But in Xiangjiang, this is normal.

It's normal for a rich man to go out on a helicopter.

There are even helicopters for sightseeing, allowing tourists to take a helicopter to cruise the bustling Xiangjiang River.

If you drive, it will take about an hour.

But the helicopter was fast, and it took about ten minutes to arrive.

The hotel here has been arranged, and Li Hao stayed directly in the hotel.

In the luxury suite of the hotel, Li Hao put his coat on the hanger, went to the window, looked ahead, and the vast field of vision was full of sea views.

This time, Li Hao came to TVB headquarters to have a meeting.

The strategic deployment of live streaming will vigorously explore the markets of Europe, America, Japan and South Korea this year, that is, sell products from China to the European, American, Japanese and South Korean markets, and sell products from Europe, America, Japan and South Korea to China.

TVB is very rough in this area, that is, inviting celebrities to join and using the influence of celebrities to quickly open up the market.

Of course, at the same time, it is supported by the construction of the logistics system.

South Korea is a good opportunity this year, because there are too many celebrities, idle at home, and it doesn't take much money to make these celebrities work hard.

On the Japanese side, with Ai Kitabashi sitting on 40 million fans on Douyin in Japan, it is simply the best choice for live broadcasting.

Last year, Ai Kitabashi topped the income list of Japanese female stars, far behind the second place.

After staying in Xiangjiang for three days, Li Hao returned to the capital.

Beijing, Quadrangle.

Li Hao was listening to the work assistant report on the situation of "Three-Body Problem: Dark Forest".

This time, "Three-Body Problem: Dark Forest" can be said to have swept the world, especially in major film markets such as Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, and its performance is even more eye-catching.

"Three-Body Problem: Dark Forest" has a score of more than 8.5 on many film review websites in North America.

"Three-Body Problem: Dark Forest" was released for a month and won 8.261 billion yuan in the Chinese film market, and the number of films scheduled has always been at 55%, even now, the daily box office is still between 1500~20 million, as early as half a month ago, the key was extended.

The Chinese film market alone contributed $1.271 billion to the box office.

The cumulative box office in North America has reached 600 million US dollars, the cumulative box office in Europe has reached 450 million US dollars, and Asia has received 400 million US dollars except China, and the current global cumulative box office is 2.985 billion US dollars, and it is close to breaking the 3 billion US dollar mark, so it can be said that there is no pressure.

However, by now, the film schedule in many film markets has dropped a lot.

"Dong Li, do you want to spend some money on public relations?" The assistant asked.

The high box office of "Three-Body Problem: Dark Forest" in Europe, America, Japan and South Korea has caused a lot of uproar, and everywhere is shouting "the wolf is coming". Originally, the North American film market was expected to be higher at the box office, but because of many negative media reports and some organizations going to the cinema to make trouble, the box office was affected.

The same is true in Europe.

In South Korea, that's even more exaggerated.

"No, there isn't much box office potential in these places anyway." Li Hao waved his hand, the public relations costs in these places are not ordinarily high, and spending this money at this time outweighs the losses.

The box office share is not as much as the public relations expense.

As long as the Chinese film market is in hand, he will be invincible, and with the growing Nanyang Film Market, Li Hao does not believe that he will lose in the game.

Once he knows which companies are causing trouble, he will naturally wear small shoes for the other party at that time.

As long as there is no problem with the AMC cinema line, then he will sit firmly in the Diaoyutai.

These people's actions at most make him earn less.

"Recently, Hollywood is engaged in special effects, and the special effects are back in North America~~" The assistant looked at Li Hao cautiously and reported the latest developments in North America.

Li Hao sneered in his heart.

The return of special effects to North America is as nonsense as the return of manufacturing to the United States!

Isn't the transfer of special effects from North America to China because Hollywood movies are becoming more and more profitable, constantly trying to reduce costs and increase profits?

You must know that Hollywood's '$20 million club' can refer to a single movie with a salary of $20 million, and this '$20 million club' has more than 40 members, and it can be said that as long as the actor reaches the first-line star, the salary will reach $20 million, of which there is not a single film with a salary of $30 million or even $40 million!

In this case, Hollywood movies have long been overwhelmed, and a film with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars can only invite one star of the '$20 million club', and cannot afford two. And how can this afford the high cost of special effects.

You must know that for the same level of special effects, Chinese special effects companies used to only need half or even one-third of the cost, even if it rose a little, it was equivalent to 60%~70% of the average level of North American special effects companies before.

Not to mention that in recent years, labor wages in North America have risen sharply.

Besides, the layoffs of the original special effects companies, the collapse of the bankruptcy, and now there are no decent companies, how easy is it to rebuild the special effects industry?

More than half of the original talents have already worked in China, and the salary they get in China is not necessarily higher than before, but with the same salary level, the quality of life in China is far beyond that of North America, and who is willing to return to North America.

Back in North America, you have to emphasize the label on yourself every time you speak!?

Special effects are back in North America, that's a dream!

If special effects really return to North America, it means that the cost of special effects for each movie will have to increase a lot, and those studios will do it crazy to do this.

Some time ago, the film company was making a fuss, making a fuss about lowering the actors' salaries, which caused these actors to be dissatisfied, and even went on strike to color, and now it's okay, someone wants to let the special effects return to North America, this is not letting these film companies cut their meat, how can these film companies be willing.

Li Hao didn't take this kind of thing to heart at all.

Because it is completely nonsense of stepping on a horse, if it can be realized, Li Hao has to give a thumbs up and shout at the other party, 'Fraud~~'.

Just like Korean movies now, if you want to revive Korean films and restore the glory of Korean films, it is also difficult, the loss of talents, the sniping of vested interests, where is it so easy.

Li Hao felt that it would be easier to scrap Hollywood movies than to make any special effects to return to North America.

Hollywood's film companies are almost overwhelmed by the increasing cost of film production and the thinner and thinner profits, and now they have to increase their costs, and these film companies simply don't make movies.

Or simply make a streaming movie.

But when that time really comes, it is estimated that many people will have a headache.

Streaming movies are different from theatrical movies after all, at least in terms of visual effects and sound effects, they are far inferior to theatrical movies.

Back then, Hollywood swept the world and conquered cities around the world, not by relying on literary films, but by blockbusters!
