Chapter 770: The Blockbuster Is Coming, the Fierce Dragon Crosses the River

Beijing.

A courtyard.

After breakfast, Sun Daohao paced back and forth in the living room, stroking his chin, thinking about the next work.

"Dark Forest" has been completed, and post-editing work is about to begin.

This movie is a science fiction masterpiece, and a considerable part of it is synthesized by special effects.

Therefore, post-editing is very important.

Whether a movie can be successful can be said to be a very important reason whether the special effects can be accepted and shocked by the audience.

Domestic movies have always been criticized by the audience in this regard.

Sun Daohao hopes that through his own movies, the audience will find that the ability to make special effects in China is not bad.

Sun Daohao picked up the mobile phone on the dining table and called the head of the editing department: "Lao Zhang, notify everyone, the editor and special effects artist must be notified, I will go to the company later, you first make an appointment in a conference room to discuss the post-production matters."

"Okay, Director Sun, I will arrange it immediately."

Sun Daohao rubbed his eyes, and there is still a lot of work to do next.

'Ding Dong'

At this time, an entertainment news popped up on the mobile Weibo.

‘Can Tan Yue’s new movie “Kung Fu” bring back the glory of martial arts action movies? ’

During this period, Sun Daohao read a lot of news reports about “Kung Fu”.

Having been a director for decades, Sun Daohao has also witnessed the glory and decline of martial arts action movies.

Sun Daohao still admires Tan Yue’s courage to shoot a martial arts action movie at this time.

But Sun Daohao can’t figure out why Tan Yue chose to shoot this type of movie?

Many of his director friends around him, even those who started out with martial arts action movies, are no longer willing to shoot now.

As many viewers said, the taste of the past can no longer be filmed now.

However, Sun Daohao still has a little expectation in his heart.

From the information obtained from many aspects, Tan Yue is not that kind of reckless person.

Maybe “Kung Fu” can really bring a different feeling?

During the filming of “Dark Forest”.

Sun Daohao learned that Tan Yue had a new movie started, and he secretly expected it to be released at the same time as Tan Yue’s movie, adding some challenges and excitement.

After all, the Chinese film and television box office record that he had maintained for many years was broken by Tan Yue.

But now it seems impossible to release them at the same time.

The main focus of "Dark Forest" is in the post-production.

Sun Daohao estimated that even if he rushed every day and continued to speed up the post-production, it could only be released at the end of the year at the earliest.

There is too much work to be done in the post-production of science fiction movies.

And "Kung Fu" is a martial arts action movie, and the post-production editing work can be completed very quickly.

Tan Yue was able to announce the start of the new movie not long after the end of "The King of Comedy", so the release time would not be delayed until the end of the year.

Sun Daohao couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

There are not many Chinese directors who can bring him pressure now. Tan Yue is one of them, and he is the only one among the younger generation of directors.

At their age, they will not easily make movies.

Some need three to five years to prepare a script, and it takes even longer for the movie to be released.

This time I can't compare with Tan Yue on the same stage, and I don't know when I will have to wait for the next time.

It's a pity, although it can't be released at the same time, I can still study it carefully.

Sun Daohao has decided that when "Kung Fu" is released, no matter how busy he is, he will take two or three hours to go to the cinema to watch this movie.

The quality of Tan Yue's new movie will be revealed at that time.

Sun Daohao returned to the bedroom, began to change clothes, and prepared to go to the company.

If "Dark Forest" wants to go viral, it must achieve top-notch special effects.

These are the problems he has to face, and it is not easy.

California, USA.

Storm Entertainment.

President's office.

The great director Jessie asked excitedly: "Is there any news from China?"

Sitting opposite him was Robinson, the president of Storm Entertainment.

He took out two wine glasses, opened a bottle of red wine, poured the wine and said: "We have reached an agreement with major theaters in China, and "Straight to the Sky" will be released on May 1st."

Hearing this, Jessie slapped his thigh excitedly. He is the director of this movie.

"Straight to the Sky" is a war film.

It mainly tells the story that happened during World War II.

Jessie is a famous American war-themed director.

The cost of any movie he directed is a sky-high figure.

Of course, the results are also very good.

This time, "Straight In The Sky" can enter the Chinese film market, all thanks to the strong support of the company.

Robinson picked up the wine glass and the two of them clinked it: "Being able to enter the Chinese film market, it can be foreseen that our movie box office will increase a lot."

When saying this, Robinson was particularly confident.

First of all, China's film market is very large, and it can be said to be one of the largest film markets in the world.

Many movies can account for half of the global box office in just this country.

On the other hand, American movies are very popular in the Chinese market.

Some movies that have poor box office in their home country will have surprisingly good box office after coming to China.

Jancis smiled and said, "My goal is to step on all Chinese movies."

Jancis is now imagining the scene of "Straight In The Sky" making a lot of money, and the comments of the group of Chinese people worshiping him online.

He is very confident in his film. The war scenes are extremely grand and the visual effects are very impactful.

The two of them clinked their glasses with a happy mood.

As soon as April came, the film market suddenly became lively.

Brilliant Entertainment announced on its official blog that "Kung Fu" will be released on May 1st.

At the same time, "Straight to the Sky" was also announced to be released on May 1st.

Unlike Brilliant Entertainment, Baofeng Entertainment directly contacted major Chinese media to announce the matter and launched large-scale publicity.

"Star Entertainment: Famous American war film director Jancis will bring "Straight In The Sky" to meet the audience on May Day."

"Entertainment Express: American war blockbuster "Straight In The Sky" is scheduled for May Day."

"Weekly Movie Information: According to the latest news, "Straight In The Sky" will be released in major theaters on May 1st. Audiences who like war-themed movies can look forward to it."

"Southern Entertainment: Produced by Baofeng Entertainment and directed by Jancis, "Straight In The Sky" will be released on May Day."

With such a large-scale promotion, "Straight In The Sky" quickly became a hot search on Weibo.

"What a surprise! This director's war film is very exciting. I didn't expect that his movie would be released in China this year. I must support it when the time comes."

"Finally, there is a good movie this May Day. I'm happy!"

The focus of the promotion of "Kung Fu" is in late April, and the news of the release date was only promoted on the official blog.

But for many fans, it is enough.

This news on the official blog of Brilliant Entertainment was also quickly topped the hot search.

Seeing the news that "Kung Fu" and "Go Fighting" were announced at the same time, many people began to worry about "Kung Fu".

"Kung Fu" was not optimistic to begin with, and now there is another American blockbuster.

The box office results may not be ideal.

After all, American movies have always been a strong force in the domestic market.

Beijing.

Brilliant Entertainment Company.

Seeing the news of "Go Fighting", many staff members of the company began to discuss it.

"This is too unlucky. The environment for the release of Kung Fu was not good, and now it is facing an American blockbuster."

"There are wolves in front and tigers behind. Our Kung Fu is in a very difficult situation. The box office may really be a problem this time."

"I know this director. Jesus is a very famous American war-themed film director. He is also famous for spending money. As far as I know, the investment in this movie alone is 150 million US dollars. "Straight in the Sky" is definitely coming in full force!"

"I wonder if President Tan will reschedule the release of Kung Fu?"

"No, I know President Tan."

Everyone's face showed a little melancholy.

Even if the quality of Kung Fu is similar to that of Straight in the Sky, it is completely different in terms of audience.

As stakeholders, they don't want Kung Fu to be released at the same time as Straight in the Sky.

In Tan Yue's office on the floor where the president's office is located.

"What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

Chen Ziyu hasn't eaten at Tan Yue's place for a while.

It would be a waste to leave such a great chef alone, so Chen Ziyu came over and told Tan Yue to go to his place for dinner in the evening.

Chen Ziyu dragged his chin, thinking about the recipe for tonight: stir-fried pork with peppers, pork ribs soup

These are Tan Yue's specialties, and the taste is comparable to that of a chef in a restaurant.

Every time he eats these things, Chen Ziyu feels that his appetite is open and he can eat a few more bowls of rice.

"Are there any vegetables at home now?"

"Just bought yesterday, all your favorites." Tan Yue replied with a smile.

Now Tan Yue buys vegetables according to Chen Ziyu's taste.

"That's good." Chen Ziyu said a few of his favorite dishes, and he never gets tired of eating them.

Tan Yue stretched out his hand: "OK."

'Dong Dong Dong. '

The knock on the door interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Come in."

"Mr. Tan, Mr. Chen." The person who came in was Engineer Wu.

Tan Yue asked, "What's up, Director Wu?"

"There's a situation right now. Just now, many media outlets reported that the American war blockbuster "Straight to the Skies" will be released on May 1st. The director is Jancis, and the film has an investment of $150 million." Engineer Wu looked a little anxious: "It just happens to be released on the same day as our film. Do you think we should expand the publicity or..."

In fact, the last two words that Engineer Wu wanted to say were to withdraw the film, but he didn't say it.

He was considering the interests of the entire company.

"Jancis is internationally famous for his war films." Tan Yue thought for a while and said.

Engineer Wu nodded.

Tan Yue tapped the table with his fingers and thought for a while, "It doesn't matter. Don't worry too much. Everything will proceed normally according to the previous plan."

"Okay, I understand." After getting Tan Yue's instructions, Engineer Wu turned around and left.

Watching Wu Gong leave, Chen Ziyu looked at Tan Yue and asked, "What do you think of this?"

Tan Yue said, "Jess is a very capable director. The fact that "Straight to the Skies" can enter our film market also shows that the quality of this film is not low."

"Will "Kung Fu" be impacted?" Chen Ziyu worried.

Tan Yue said, "There is pressure, but pressure is also motivation. Sooner or later, our company's films will have to deal with these foreign blockbusters and even international entertainment companies. Now is just the beginning."

In Tan Yue's plan, Brilliant Entertainment will be connected with the international entertainment industry in the future.

This day came so soon, and it was also a way to get to know the opponent in advance.

Chen Ziyu was still a little worried.

Now the box office of each movie is very important to Tan Yue, and she doesn't want any unexpected situation.

Movie forum.

Since major media reported the news that "Straight to the Sky" was scheduled, the topics discussed in major sections have increased rapidly.

The topic of "Kung Fu" that was previously discussed was directly suppressed.

One is a big American movie, a big production, and the other is a martial arts action movie that has already declined.

Of course, the former is more attractive to everyone.

Someone in the martial arts section posted the news that "Kung Fu" was scheduled early.

At the beginning, the mood of netizens was quite high, after all, the director was Tan Yue, but soon someone mentioned the movie "Straight to the Sky".

Netizens who already thought that "Kung Fu" had little chance became even more pessimistic.

Martial arts action movies like "Kung Fu" are even less competitive in front of American big movies.

The heat in the message area dropped instantly.

Pessimism arises in the hearts of every audience who loves martial arts action movies.

Beijing.

At Sun Daohao's home.

Sun Daohao also noticed the news that "Kung Fu" and "Go Fighting" will be released at the same time.

He is still looking forward to such friction.

Now Sun Daohao's biggest wish is to hope that Chinese entertainment can go global.

Let people from other countries see the wonderful Chinese culture.

He thinks Tan Yue is the person who has the most hope to reach this step, and the collision of the two movies this time is an opportunity.

If domestic movies can't even beat the box office in China, let alone go abroad.

Of these two movies, Sun Daohao certainly hopes that "Kung Fu" can win, after all, it is a domestic movie.

And Tan Yue is a young director he values.

In the blink of an eye, it came to the end of April.

The public relations department of Brilliant Entertainment Company began to work hard to expand the publicity of "Kung Fu".

For a while.

Whether it is Weibo or short video platforms, many promotional short videos about "Kung Fu" have appeared.

On the ticket purchasing software, you can also see it in the pop-up recommendation window.

In order to change the audience's inherent impression of martial arts action movies and improve the market environment of martial arts action movies, the public relations department has continuously expanded its publicity efforts.

Through promotional short films, more audiences are attracted to watch "Kung Fu".

At the same time, the publicity of "Straight in the Sky" is also being carried out in an overwhelming manner, which is comparable to the publicity efforts of "Kung Fu".

The first round of fierce confrontation between the two movies has not yet been released.

It has attracted many netizens to watch.

"Kung Fu" and "Straight in the Sky" have become the biggest gimmicks of the May Day period.

Many people on the Internet have spoken for these two movies.

The voices supporting "Straight in the Sky" are slightly higher. After all, movies of this type of "Kung Fu" are still at a disadvantage in the current market environment.
