Chapter 232: Three Days and One Billion! Tickets are hard to come by! Buy tickets with your real name!
In Han Sanping's view, the film industry in Dragon Kingdom still has a long way to go.
There are a lot of differences in terms of equipment and scripts.
And the main thing is that it is not known what the audience likes.
In 2005, there were many people who were willing to spend money for entertainment.
Although the economy at this time is far less than in 2023, there are no higher wages, and there are not as many people who go to the movies.
But in fact, it is also because domestic movies are not sophisticated enough.
Some foreign movies are still bought by many audiences.
This is also the reason why Han Sanping vigorously develops the film industry.
It used to be the films of Xiangjiang that occupied the market, but now the rise of mainland films.
But with the opening of the Dragon Kingdom market, Hollywood movies are also taking their share.
Although there is a strict review system, a good movie is a good movie, and before Su Yi was born, the movies shot by famous foreign directors were also very marketable in the Dragon Kingdom.
So it's not that the audience doesn't have the money to watch the movie.
Normally, a movie that is no more than two hours long is about 20 yuan.
Many people have spending power, but domestic movies can't drive the consumption enthusiasm of Chinese people.
If Han Sanping wants to develop films, he must make excellent movies and mobilize the enthusiasm of the audience.
Let the bullets fly did, although it was not a purely commercial film, but it also exceeded the box office of 1 billion, leading the film market of the Dragon Kingdom to a new era.
And the 12 years of being a slave were exposed abroad, although they also relied on Su Yi's fame to obtain a box office of more than 900 million.
But it has never been able to resonate with the people of the Dragon Kingdom - but on the Internet, this work has been rated as a god.
At the beginning of the in-depth analysis, they all admired Su Yi's script and directing ability.
Although this work was only filmed for ten days, and the investment was not high.
But it made $1 billion at the box office, which is staggering.
Even for a while, the North American media praised the film.
Because a person from the Dragon Kingdom has not experienced that period of history, just relying on some information and imagination, he can make such a thrilling movie.
Many Hollywood film critics have called Su Yi a genius in the film industry.
However, due to the annoyance of the Star Flag government, there are not too many Hollywood studios to cooperate with for the time being.
That is, Warner Bros. Pictures is working with them.
After all, the previous movie caused the government of the Star Flag Country to lose so much finances, and they also knew that this was a counterattack from the Dragon Kingdom.
Because of the previous diplomacy, they have no way to revoke the movie, which is also some unspoken rules between major powers.
And the Star Flag Country is not a big injury, the money given to those blacks is all newly printed money, and when the time comes, there will be more national debts.
But it's a shame internationally, it's true.
The most important thing is that they have also begun to face up to the propaganda power of the Dragon Kingdom.
It stands to reason that this should be their forte.
After all, at that time, when there was a war abroad, they launched similar propaganda.
Now that this kind of cultural export and propaganda war, the Dragon Kingdom also has the ability to counterattack and even take the initiative.
Naturally, Han Sanping was very happy.
However, he also knew that although this movie was not done by Su Yi alone.
But if there was no Su Yi, there would be no movie of this scale.
Investment and synergy of the three divisions.
Soldiers of two divisions crossed the border to shoot.
Although he went overseas to shoot, he still built a shooting studio in China.
No way, big scenes can be shot outside, and post-production is more sophisticated.
But the special effects of some shots still have to be shot in a professional studio.
There are also shots of Xu Ke and Wang Fulin's magnificent troops, as well as Lin Chaoxian's small-scale close-up war.
and finally the emotional pitch โ even the Warner Bros. IMAX camera.
Indispensable!
But without the soul of Su Yi, it would be impossible to complete the filming of this movie.
He couldn't figure out how the neighboring country agreed to let Su Yi take someone to shoot now.
It's a feat!
These things must be known to the audience!
That's why I'm in a hurry to make an interview documentary in 6 sets.
Take advantage of the heat!
I also hope that the heroic attack can break 600 million at the box office!
In this way, they don't lose money and can still make money.
In fact, China Film releases movies, even if it loses some money on investment, it can come back in theaters.
"The box office on the first day, 320 million!"
Han Sanping was happy that he didn't sleep all night.
To tell the truth, the money made by China Film Investment, except for the salaries of employees, is all from the state.
Because this is a government unit.
So even if it is tens of billions, it does not have much interest in Han Sanping in essence.
But the meaning of this is different.
The box office on the first day was 320 million, directly becoming the first box office of the movie on the first day!
On the first day, I directly earned back the money invested in a department!
In fact, to have such a high box office, in addition to Su Yi's reputation and people's gratitude to their predecessors, there is also the high box office credit of IMAX.
A 3D movie ticket costs 158 yuan, and the previous movie was only 30 yuan!
But what surprised Han Sanping was.
The attendance of this 3D version is higher than that of ordinary halls!
The audience bought it!
The box office has reached a new era, and in the next few years, 3D will also become mainstream!
This is already leading the world!
Although the 3D technology is all foreign, their previous box office performance is not very strong.
This time, it is estimated that the world has also seen the potential of 3D movies and the Dragon Kingdom market!
No wonder Su Yi has been insisting, this effect is really awesome!
ยทยทยทยท
Media.
"The box office on the first day was 320 million! "Changjin Lake" performs strongly! Nearly 4 hours long movie, full of sincerity! โ
When our reporter interviewed the audience at the entrance of the cinema, he asked the audience if they thought the movie tickets were too expensive. The audience all said that the 158 yuan was worth it, and some people even had to brush it twice on the spot! โ
"The performance of the box office on the first day made other opponents desperate, Chen Kaige's new movie "Heroes Attack", the box office on the first day was 9 million, which is still a big gap from the expected 20 million!"
"What's particularly interesting is that many viewers can't tell which is director Su Yi's work, and many people buy the wrong ticket!"
"There are also people who complain on Su Yi's blog, saying that the latest movies are all handsome guys and beauties, although they also have feelings, but the expressiveness of the script is too poor!"
Chen Kaige is also unlucky.
The original male soldier attacked, although the box office was not high, but it cannot be called a bad movie.
For foreign wars, there is also a good restoration.
After all, in the original world, Chen Kaige also participated in the filming of Changjin Lake and Watergate Bridge, and his control of the script of the heroic attack is also good.
However, in 2007, he didn't have much experience before, he just felt that he could drive the whole movie with his feelings.
It's like the rabbit, it's mainly about feelings.
The fan effect of the star, plus some military bombing scenes.
There is also Su Yi's previous propaganda.
You can definitely get a high box office!
Chen Kaige is full of confidence, in fact, if there is no Su Yi, he suddenly wants to shoot this male attack.
may be the box office champion of the year.
But there are no ifs!
Now Chen Kaige's movie box office cannot surpass Changjin Lake!
After the price of IMAX was accepted by everyone, the box office failure of Chen Kaige's movie was doomed.
It's just how ugly it is.
"Now I know how bad Xu Sanduo performed in the first military exercise before! Because two eggs were brought to the squad leader, the heat source was found. The sentence that the company commander Gao said in a hurry: Pull it out and kill it!
The army really doesn't have time for people to grow. If it were a real war, such as when lurking in the Wolf Forest Mountains, once discovered, all the comrades-in-arms would be finished! โ
"That's right, we used to see the soldier assault as an inspirational drama, but after connecting it with Changjin Lake, every character came alive! Almost everyone is Wu Liuyi and Shi Jin! Such a soldier is perfect! โ
"This kind of linkage is indeed very meaningful, I want to re-brush a soldier assault! No wonder he was so excluded before he became talented! โ
"The movie is so touching! Here are the potatoes I took home. Heat it in a pan for a long time before eating. There is salt in it, and I keep crying, and that sad feeling comes up, and it's really hard to control! My mother heard me crying and eating potatoes, and said how can this stupid girl marry in the future, a potato is moved like this! It's too easy to deceive. โ
"It turned out that it was all in the textbook, and when I looked at the rabbit, it was also sad. But it was when I actually saw people fall one by one that I was really shocked. โ
"We have finished the battle, so that the people behind will not be baptized by war!"
"Salute! Thank you also to Director Su Yi! โ
"I feel quite embarrassed, I bumped into the person next to me several times, and the effect was really good! How much does it take to invest to have such an effect? โ
"Holy! I can't even buy a movie ticket! I'd love to see the IMAX version! It's just that the ticket price is a little expensive! โ
There are also a lot of discussions on the Internet and reality, and most of them are discussing the plot.
There are also many people who ask how the quality of the movie is and whether the 3D effect is so magical.
After all, 158 a movie is not cheap even in 2024.
But this kind of thing, there will always be people who try it.
Once it works well, then it's a blowout.
After all, now is not the era of not being able to eat, and 158 is not sky-high.
Many people are asking online, but more people are grabbing tickets.
This is only the second day of the release, and there are more people in the cinema.
Many movie theaters have started to add more shows!
Ordinary halls can be added.
But the IMAX version is hard to come by!
The price of a movie ticket has increased to 258 per ticket!
Of course, it's not that movie theaters are raising prices.
It's those scalpers!
These things are not something that Su Yi can manage, he has already suggested to Han Sanping that he enter with a real-name system.
Although it is troublesome, it can eliminate scalpers.
The profession of scalpers disrupts the market, and it is easy for people to make the audience have some bad feelings about movies.
He turned off his phone, as long as it was a good review.
Su Yi thought that people in this era were not interested in this subject.
is also underestimating the power of his own propaganda.
ยทยทยทยท
Su family.
"Son, this movie is really good! The three masters also said that they want to ask you to buy a movie ticket! โ
Father Su said with a smile.
They also know what this movie means.
When the movie premiered this time, it relied on Su Yi's 'personal relationship'.
I invited the whole family to watch this movie.
To be honest, Father Su was still a little puzzled.
I didn't know that Su Yi had such rich emotions before.
It seems that this person went to college and really increased his knowledge.
His own son has also grown up, and his knowledge and insight have far surpassed his own.
"I don't have any more tickets in my hand, so I'll help you ask when the time comes."
Su Yi was a little helpless, he was not in charge of the issuance, and he was able to get a few tickets at the beginning because there were many viewers watching.
Now that movie tickets are so popular, they are almost about to be 'condemned' by the whole network.
"Don't be embarrassed for your son, the more you are in the system, the more you should pay attention to this kind of thing!"
In the name of the people, many government organs and units have been preventing the occurrence of some abuse of power for personal gain.
Su Yi is now the director of the overseas program center, so he naturally knows what is going on here.
And there are many people who pay attention to Su Yi, so it is not an exaggeration to say that they are keeping an eye on it.
The purpose is to break Su Yi's golden body.
Don't look at Su Yi's grade, but now he is a banner.
Many media are also paying attention at all times, waiting for the big melons to burst!
However, Su Yi is not afraid of their slander, after all, he is still in the system, not only a film director, but also Su Yi doesn't have to worry about making things up by himself.
Naturally, there are relevant departments to deal with it.
In order to attract attention, some media made up the matter of Su Yi and the three daughters of Hurricane.
And a lot of photos were released.
Before the results could ferment on the Internet, the official locked the news in the shortest possible time.
And also secretly investigated.
As if it hadn't happened, the editor-in-chief of that media outlet was also caught investigating.
Rumors also come at a cost!
This is also a benefit within the system.
"The popularity of movies can't always be so high, after all, movie tickets are still very expensive. When the time comes, you can look at it casually, and at that time I will ask the people in the yard to see it. โ
Su Yi shook his head slightly, he felt that it was impossible for this matter to continue to be hot, after all, IMAX was still very expensive.
"It's okay, I didn't agree to this in the first place."
Su's father also casually said that since the 'bribery incident' of JDB Group, he has always been very concerned about these things.
"Buzz!"
The phone has started to light up.
Su Yi looked at the phone, and the person in the shadow called.
"Su Yi! The movie is very hot right now! The leadership above is delighted! The box office in one day is 320 million! โ
The voice of the deputy director of Shangying was a little excited, he didn't expect this movie to be so powerful.
When they first made additional investments, they felt that it was impossible to make a profit, or even lose money.
But even if he has a good relationship with Su Yi, with this guilt, there will be more opportunities for cooperation in the future.
But what I didn't expect was that it gave them such a shock.
No wonder they were rushing to cooperate with Su Yi at the beginning.
It's simply what it is. A powerful tool to make money!
"Haha. It's not my credit alone, we can continue to use the copyright of Shangmei Film this time, right? โ
Su Yi smiled.
Before, because there was no news about the movie, they were still a little anxious.
At that time, Su Yi was busy making programs for international channels, as if there was no news.
But now that the movie is popular, they are naturally convinced.
"You can always use the cough cough Su director to measure large, so don't be as knowledgeable as us."
The other side is very polite.
It's not because of Su Yi's identity as the director of the overseas program center.
The two are not considered a system, they are not next to each other at all.
What he respects is the identity of Director Su Yi!
After Changjin Lake this time, it's not an exaggeration to say that he is the first film director in the Dragon Kingdom, right?
created such a box office miracle and even promoted the development of the movie.
At the same time, there is also education in the spirit of propagating patriotism
Only Su Yi shot such a movie at the most suitable time.
"Director Su Yi, that's it. We still have some connection with Dongfang Satellite TV. The leaders of the two families also know each other, so I want to invite you to this talk show about movies. โ
Su Yi smiled helplessly.
Han Sanping still wants to get one for himself.
The director of Dongfang Satellite TV is very powerful, and he found the favor of Shangying.
The movie is on the air, and various TV stations and companies are beginning to think about how to gain popularity.
"Well, he can invite some people from the soldier assault crew, I definitely can't go."
Originally, the soldier assault was a classic, but now it will become even more popular because of the movie.
It will also be very popular to find a soldier assault crew on the show.
The main thing is that Su Yi authorized it.
The copyright is in the hands of China Film, Education, Bayi and Su Yi.
They don't need to be authorized at the same time, they can develop some peripherals.
For example, this kind of show is the peripheral.
"Okay, thank you so much Director Su Yi."
Originally, the vice chairman of Shangying was not sure, and he didn't have a deep friendship with Su Yi.
This time, I came with the attitude of giving it a try.
The phone had just hung up, and Bayi called the factory director.
"Director Su! This movie is very exciting! The chief was very moved after watching it, and said that if there is another movie about military themes in the future, it must be director Su Yi! โ
Director Zhang's hearty laughter came.
Su Yi coughed twice suddenly.
The filming was already terrible, to be honest, when they went to the border to shoot the movie, although it was not in the extremely cold weather that has not been seen in 50 years, and the soldiers also wore warm clothes.
But for the sake of reality, many shots were also shot on location, without special effects.
The soldiers of the two divisions, after knowing the script, are also asking for real filming.
There are even those who don't wear thermal underwear.
I can understand their feelings, but I don't have to.
Because it hurts the body too much, there is no reason to hurt the body of the fighters unless it is necessary.
This time, although the Bayi factory did not invest more money than the other two departments.
But it is the most giving.
Those retro equipment weapons, tanks and planes.
They are all provided and communicated with people from both the diplomatic and military departments.
And shooting military movies is definitely a job that requires a lot of patience.
Many times, a detail has to be photographed repeatedly.
"It's so polite, it's all everyone's credit, the international channel and China Film have a program, I think some soldiers should be allowed to go up! It's kind of propaganda. โ
Su Yi thought about it and sent out an invitation.
"No problem. I have to say that this movie is very exciting. After the next screening, our military and education department will arrange for the broadcast! โ
Director Zhang said with emotion.
"The movie is so popular now, it may be necessary to ask the soldiers to wait. It is estimated that the film will apply for an extension of the broadcast, which is also a good thing. โ
Su Yi hesitated.
He also thinks it's a little bad, but now the anti-piracy ability is too poor, and if the source of the film is leaked, it is easy to lose the box office.
But at the same time, he also felt that the hard shooting of so many fighters was not all watched, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"It's okay, the chief has already arranged for them to be fed! There are so many box offices this time, and the dividends will not be less. We can't pay the fighters more, so we have to do it this way."
The people in the military and the propaganda department are definitely different, and although they belong to one of the eight major film studios, many models are still different.
"I am also the honorary director of Bayi Factory, and I will go to see my comrades-in-arms when the time comes."
Su Yi's heart was warm.
Who is the cutest person?
What is a people's soldier?
At the time of filming.
They scramble to shoot some dangerous pictures, and they will also cry because of the touching of the plot.
Su Yi was grateful, there were many people who filmed, but he was famous alone.
"You will always be our comrade-in-arms. Tell me when you've set a date. I'm sure they'll be very happy! โ
Director Zhang smiled, and he was much more relieved.
This time, I finally got on good terms with Su Yi.
It's not that Su Yi can't do without him, but what is most lacking now is talent!
Especially the script and the director!
In the state-run era, it used to be one of the eight major film studios.
Changying, Beiying, Shangying, Xiying, Zhuying, Xiaoxiang, Bayi, Emei.
Now there are only a few left.
The others were eliminated by history and merged into other businesses.
Bayi Film and Television, as a propaganda agency of the army, naturally wants to attract the audience with the things filmed.
Now I am collaborating with Su Yi on two works.
The soldier assault was for recruitment, and Changjin Lake decided to shoot a film about the overseas war at that time after seeing the influence of the rabbit.
Both works are very popular.
While making money, it also makes the leaders above see the necessity of their existence.
Director Zhang's gratitude can be imagined.
Not only them, but also the education sector has gained a lot.
When Su Yi filmed the collection before, there were really many children who didn't know that the Dragon Boat Festival was from the Dragon Kingdom.
And I also slowly like to spend Christmas Eve, Christmas and the like.
In this movie, the Dragon Kingdom soldiers eat hard potatoes and wear single clothes.
And those coalition troops, eating turkey, unscrupulously discussing how to vacation after the battle!
Even now, on the Internet, some people have begun to boycott Christmas Eve and Christmas!
This festival from the West was originally followed by a lively and lively event, and it was nothing for businesses to have some activities to promote consumption.
But if you regard Western festivals as treasures, you don't know about your own country's festivals.
That's not to blame the people, but the fault of propaganda!
From beginning to end, Su Yi was a public welfare director in a propaganda department.
Whether it is a documentary, variety show or movie, the core is still publicity and public welfare.
The filming of "Changjin Lake" has successfully 'extinguished' the spread of giving apples on Christmas Eve and asking for gifts at Christmas in advance.
One movie, multiple functions.
Shangying, Bayi Factory, education, and publicity, all happy!
This. is the strength of director Su Yi!
And the influence of movies in this era is far greater than imagined.
ยทยทยทยท
"The popularity of "Changjin Lake" continues, and IMAX movies are hard to find!"
"There are already schools that have organized to go to the cinema to watch the 2D version of Changjin Lake!"
"A letter from the soldiers of the Ice Sculpture Company, look at the crying hundreds of millions of dragon people!"
"International Channel and CCTV 6, invite director Su Yi to answer your questions! We will tell you the 'story' of the time of shooting! โ
The box office must be a bit exaggerated in 2007, but compared with the box office popularity brought by Avatar at the beginning, it doesn't seem to be exaggerated to the sky, you can think about the Changjin Lake 3D version If it is in 2007, will the box office exceed the future Monster Hunt? By the way, thank you for the monthly pass recommendation ticket of all the big guys!
