Chapter 1052: A Bright Start

"Lost" has officially launched globally. There is no final trailer and no extensive publicity. From beginning to end, everything is kept simple, leaving people a little confused as to what Chen Hao is playing and how confident he is. Where does the heart come from? Even if you are at the level of Carmelo Anthony or Spielberg, when you come up with a new work, you have to promote it on a large scale. Why should he be so bland and let the work be released at the end of the spring schedule of this year's American drama?

There is no reason, Chen Hao just does this. He even does not hide the fact that the entire post-production has not been completed and does not need to be completed. Many American TV series are shot and broadcast at the same time. I have finished the filming and will work on it slowly in post-production. , do you have anything to question?

Weekly broadcast, it is also a weekly broadcast in China, and the Imperial TV station gave a lot of support in this matter. In view of the subject matter and content, it may not be suitable for prime time on the Imperial TV station, so the support was given to the Xinwen Lianbo program. This is the first time that the News Network of the Court Channel has advertised a TV series. Fortunately, the carrier is large enough, and it is broadcast in nearly fifty countries around the world, maintaining the same frequency rhythm, and each broadcast time does not exceed two days. With the time difference, the style of "Lost" has improved, and it sold for a sky-high price when it was sold exclusively in China. However, this sky-high price became extremely negligible when considering the overall investment in filming this movie. Everyone knows that it is said to cost 200 million US dollars to shoot. In the first season of ", Chen Hao really burned 200 million US dollars during the filming.

The construction of the 'Lost City' is now in the form of a bottomless pit, constantly devouring batches of investment funds. According to external estimates, if the current existing area does not spread, the overall construction may cost one billion US dollars. Unexpectedly, some media have interviewed and photographed those sophisticated and high-quality constructions. A terrifying elevator cost millions of dollars. The strange lights in a cave are so weird that even if a hundred million is thrown into them, it is no longer enough. It is necessary to use any light and shadow special effects technology to assist. The feeling revealed by the sporadic shots captured by the media is very real. If everyone hadn't known that it was a barren mountain half a year ago, they would have thought that there really was such a precision-built and possessed place in the mountain. A mausoleum with many incredible equipment.

Nowadays, few people doubt the overall quality of the "Lost City". What they doubt is that it is not large enough throughput. Can it really make money as a tourist attraction? Can it really support subsequent construction?

From the time the script of "Lost" came out to the groundbreaking of "Lost City", there have always been huge question marks that people can't see clearly. With all kinds of doubts, everyone is speculating and waiting for this huge question today. The question mark will finally reveal its true appearance.

Europe and America are an expectation of scrutiny.

Asia is a warm welcome full of expectations.

In China, no one would think that this drama would fail. It only depends on how high it can reach.

When it comes to nation-states, it is rare that before the broadcast of "Lost", the Internet in China was in a state of enthusiastic anticipation. It is rare that there are no clear-cut opposing voices. What everyone is paying attention to is not the domestic market, but the best expression of this movie. European and American markets with dramatic value.

"I won't go, you can just represent me. The post-production here is still in production, and I have been busy for such a long time. It's time to find a chance for myself to be lazy. There is nothing more than going to the media to show off. Circle, I’m really too lazy to answer some unhelpful questions, just find a personal representative.”

Chen Hao's decision not to personally take charge of the European and American battlefields was beyond the expectations of many people. Did he not pay attention to it so much?

"I have done everything I have to do. Whether it will work in the end is not decided by whether I sit in Europe and the United States. Instead of being chased and intercepted by others, it is better to rest at home with peace of mind."

Regarding the final part of "Lost" entering the spring release, the evaluation of the American media is relatively objective. They are not too optimistic, and they do not deliberately deny or slander. They just list some data and lay out some problems that may occur. What are the advantages? , what are the disadvantages? Everyone knows that Chen Hao's production must be high-quality, but if you take an American TV series to such a large scale, no one can guarantee that you can really achieve the desired effect.

The host of a certain talk show said the following in a joking way, which became the biggest hot news before the release of "Lost".

"Oh, we all know that MOUSE's new drama will be released on Monday night. What do you think? My daughter asked me, Dad, do you like MOUSE? I answered her definitely, I do, I also told her very firmly, baby, do you know the other people in his new drama? My daughter’s answer was like this, Dad, I can’t tell who they are, they all look alike!”

Having said this, he paused and spread his hands casually, showing a helpless expression: "It's really a pity. I really hope that the actors in his new drama can be more distinctive. I like Sun Yat-sen in "Prison Break". , he is great, I like him very much, I still hope MOUSE can consider it comprehensively, self-confidence is a good thing, but if self-confidence is regarded as capital that can be spent, I think when the new drama starts, the facts will tell him, no matter how good you are No matter how good the director is in terms of special effects, he can't completely break into the international market with a completely oriental adventure drama."

This is an indisputable fact, and Haomen’s fans did not argue, especially some fans in Europe and the United States who still believe it. We can like Eastern culture and watch Eastern adventure dramas because of you MOUSE, but even your own dramas always arrange a lot of foreign actors. Why do you only choose actors from Chinese or East Asian countries?

We believe that you are not excluding anything, but we really cannot understand such behavior.

The answer is in the drama, the answer is on Monday night in the United States.

It was Sunday night in China. The time difference between the two sides meant that if there were some fans who couldn't wait, then you could make your own choices based on your own abilities. Chen Hao arrived at the company early in the morning. Under everyone's gaze, he continued to edit the following scenes normally, went to the cafeteria for lunch at noon, and returned to his office in the afternoon to watch the finished film. At around four o'clock, he left the company on time. Everything was the same as in the past, which made others confused. Boss, are you really so confident, or are you pretending to be normal in front of us? We are still preparing to work overtime in the company in the evening and watch the first episode of the first season of "Lost" together in the conference room. You, just left like that?

Xiaodi is still filming in Shanghai. The night scene tonight has been adjusted and will not be filmed. The members of the "Tiny Times" crew will watch "Lost" together. After the two of them had a video chat in the car, Chen Hao's answer that there was no special arrangement for 1 o'clock in the evening surprised Xiaodi. He quietly sent a message to Qiu Yu, asking him to help keep an eye on it. Is the pressure of this play too great, making his current mental state a little unbearable?

When I got home, under normal circumstances, when there was no need for privacy, the door was always open. Kang Yan, Chen Gang and Qiu Yu were in the house opposite, and they could see a corner of the living room here anytime and anywhere.

Without making an appointment to have dinner together, nor asking Qiu Yu to order food, Chen Hao went into the house, changed his clothes and took a shower. He walked into the kitchen very homely, took out a steak from the refrigerator, stood in the dining room with interest, fried a large piece of steak, cooked a plate of pasta, took a tablet, watched talk shows and crosstalk programs, and bursts of laughter came from time to time, making Qiu Yu at the door almost unable to help going in several times. Today's boss seemed to be normal, and there was no difference from his usual state of living alone, but it was such abnormality that seemed so abnormal on a day like today.

"Does he really not think that today is a very special day at all?"

Chen Hao was not worried and confident, which Qiu Yu thought was normal, but on such a day, he still lived the same life as before, which was really too unusual.

After dinner, as usual, he didn't clean up the mess. This was his habit. He hated cleaning the table, wiping the table, and washing the dishes. He sat on the sofa in the living room and watched TV, usually the sports channel. At around seven o'clock, he would watch the news broadcast, but he didn't watch it attentively. Most of the time, he would play games or chat on his mobile phone, and occasionally look up at the TV, just like many people who stayed at home after work.

Qiu Yu reported the situation here to Xiao Di, and the answer he got was a reassuring smile: "It's okay, you should do what you should do, go over to watch the premiere with him in the evening, he has no problem at all."

What could be the problem? Chen Hao knew that these puzzled eyes around him existed. He didn't want to explain, and there was no need to explain. I tried my best to do one thing, and there was a system to support it. Success is inevitable. Since I know it will succeed, what else can I worry about? Just be normal every day.

It was almost time, Qiu Yu and the other two came over, with a fruit plate, dried fruits, beef jerky and a bottle of white wine. It was a very comfortable thing to watch TV and drink together. On time, at 8 o'clock in the evening in Yanjing, Asia, "Lost" officially landed.

On the Internet, the most popular thing is to predict its ratings. In this era, mobile phones and computers have become necessities of life. It is difficult for TV ratings to be as crazy as "My Fair Princess" back then. Three or four points are enough to be the standard of the ratings champion that year.

On the Internet, some people have made a guess.

Is it possible for "Lost" to reach a 10% rating in China during its first broadcast? Some people are also guessing whether the number of viewers in the United States during its first broadcast can reach 5 million?

From the first second of the TV series, no one cared about these data. All attention was attracted by "Lost". The first second of the opening scene, from the cabin of the plane that broke apart after the forced landing, the picture progressed, not presented in a bloody way, but made every audience feel that everything in this picture was so broken, and crying and shouting began to be added to the picture.

Why does the picture feel different from the blockbusters I have seen before.

Why does the crying and shouting make me feel that the people who are experiencing all this are so unlucky instead of miserable?

Kang Yan and Chen Gang were complete spectators. Others didn't know, but for them at least, the word "real" came out first, and their attention was completely drawn to it.

The opening was a big red configuration.
