Chapter 582: Not optimistic

On March 21st, the two-day box office of "Decisive Battle of Vulcan" accumulated more than 200 million.

According to this trend, the total box office of this Hollywood blockbuster has exceeded 1 billion. There is basically no problem, and it is normal to reach 1.2 billion to 300 million. But it is not easy to get higher, such as 1.5 billion.

After two days of release, "The Battle of Vulcan" has a two-level trend in the word-of-mouth on the Internet. People who like it think that this film has excellent effects, and the plot is exciting. From the beginning to the end, the climax is continuous, and the value is fully refunded. price.

The disliked audience's evaluation of "Decisive Battle of Vulcan" is a typical popcorn-style Hollywood blockbuster. Apart from the special effects battle scene, others are not worth mentioning. The storyline is full of loopholes. The stimulus that people feel is strong enough.

Similar big movies, everyone has seen a lot, there is not much freshness.

Regardless of those positive comments, simply saying these negative words actually reflects a problem that Hollywood films face at home. That is, the introduction of large-scale homogenization is serious, too much pursuit of special effects and neglect of the plot and the shaping of characters. It is like a delicious dish for the audience, full of MSG.

Young people are more liked, and they are also the main viewing group of this Hollywood blockbuster.

Of course, there are also some real fine works in Hollywood movies. It is only that the literary trend of the film is difficult to be introduced into the country, and the box office after the introduction is often very poor, not to be seen by the cinema.

It is precisely because of this, coupled with the state's protection policy for domestic films, so Hollywood blockbusters have a huge impact on the domestic film market, domestic films in the last decade can also occupy a place.

However, the domestic youth idol films and popular ip movies that are mainly based on the market are also facing serious problems of homogenization. The domestic movie market is becoming more and more popular, and the prospects are also confusing.

Lu Chen led Chen Fei Media and wanted to seize the site in this huge market. Strength, connections, luck and opportunities are indispensable.

As a newcomer to the film circle, he is not optimistic about many insiders.

At 8 o'clock on the evening of March 26, Yiyi.com, one of the largest portals in China, broadcasted its weekly entertainment show “Weekly Movies” on its own website, which involved Lu Chen and “Ghost Story”.

"With the further opening of the domestic film market, there will be a further increase in the number of Hollywood blockbusters entering the country in the future. The domestic film protection month will eventually be cancelled."

"In recent years, Japanese and Korean films have sprung up everywhere, and many good works have been introduced into China. The domestic film has become a close-knit, so the situation is very serious and the market share is further compressed!"

The guests sitting in the live room talked and said: "So the domestic film wants to highlight the encirclement. The key lies in the film production organization. The domestic film companies need to be bigger and stronger, the technology is closely following the international mainstream, and the content needs to be posted. In the domestic market, invest more funds for development."

"Weekly Movie Talk" is a network variety show that is one of the famous brands of Yiwang video. It broadcasts one issue a week. Each issue invites a famous person in the film circle, such as director, actor, producer, screenwriter, Film critics and so on, to comment on the film released this week, and to predict the new film released next week.

The click rate of this program is very high.

This issue of "Weekly Film Talk" invited Wang Xiaoxu, a well-known columnist and film critic.

Wang Xiaoxu is not the first time to go to this program. He is also very familiar with the host. In addition, the degree of freedom of network programming is much higher than that of TV programs, so he speaks very well and does not have much scruples.

"This week's "Decisive Battle of Vulcan" has already won 500 million box office, and it is inevitable to break through 1 billion. Therefore, we should see that the successful Hollywood film companies are basically giants, small and medium-sized movies. The number of companies is very small, compared to our domestic film production units are many and scattered, seemingly large scale, in fact, the individual strength is not strong enough, it is naturally difficult to beat the opponent."

The host deeply nodded and said: "You are very reasonable, and next week there will be two new domestic films to be released, one is "our youth is not lonely", one is "Ghost Story". ”

At the same time as the host introduced, there were two trailers of the movie on the big screen behind him.

"Mr. Wang, what do you think of these two new films?"

Wang Xiaoxu turned his eyes back from the screen and said: "I have seen all the trailers of these two new films. "Our youth is not lonely" needless to say, or youth idols, there are not many fresh routines from the trailer. The box office should be there. After all, this movie market has always been there."

"As for the movie "Ghost Story"

He shook his head.

Moderator sensitive: "You are not optimistic?"

Wang Xiaoxu smiled and said: "It is not very optimistic. The reason is very simple. "Ghost Story" is a fantasy ghost film adapted from the story of "Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio", and the same type of "Painted Skin" has been released on the 14th. More than 40 million."

"Picture Skin" is bigger than the "Ghost Story", and the special effects lens is more. At the end, even the cost can not be recovered, indicating that the audience does not like the film of this theme, plus "Decisive Battle of Vulcan "The high-profile rate, "Ghost Story" will not perform better than "Painted Skin"."

The host has different opinions: "Mr. Wang, as far as I know, "Ghost Story" has more than 100 million in the box office in Xiangjiang, and the word-of-mouth and box office are better than "Painted Skin"!"

Wang Xiaoxu disapproved: "The situation of Xiangjiang is very different from that of China. The audience there prefers the ghost film, and when "Ghost Story" is released, there is no Hollywood blockbuster during the same period, and "

After a pause, he said: "And the "Ghost Story" over 100 million box office is said to have sold tens of millions of peripheral products. To be honest, I don't believe it."

Wang Xiaoxu's suspicion of the "Ghost Story" Xiangjiang box office, although not clearly stated straight out, but the expression on the face of anyone who sees it.

Probably the feeling is too sensitive, the host quickly transferred the topic: "That Wang, what do you think about the recent appearance in the movie market"

......

The morning of the "Weekly Movie Talk" network broadcast, Lu Chen saw it in the office.

Lu Chen didn’t know that there was this program, but his fans and the guest guest Wang Xiaoxu had fought on the Inspur blog, and they made a lot of noise!

The second is sent. (To be continued.)
