Chapter 928 Set a Small Goal First
tribe.
Ling Kong was communicating with the person in charge of a theater.
Today isn't just the day for the premiere of Resident Evil.
Today is also the day of the premiere of Horde's new movie "Blade Woman."
The person in charge of the theater said with a smile on the phone: "Congratulations, Young Master Ling, for making a good movie for Blue Star. The evaluation from the first audience of "Female Blade" is quite good, and the movie's attendance rate is also very good. No surprises." If it is, the box office should be quite gratifying, and it may even hope to break the box office record of major heroine movies!"
"Thanks."
Ling Kong suppressed the excitement in his heart: "The follow-up filming will have to work hard, buddy, please help me."
"It's natural."
Ling Kong said again: "Dude, do you know the situation of "Resident Evil"?"
The other party smiled and said: "There are so many Blue Star movies, and there is competition between theaters. Our theaters are more optimistic about Tribes, so this time we did not introduce Xianyu's "Resident Evil", but that movie is also released today. The premiere, the situation should be reported soon.”
"clear."
After hanging up the phone, Ling Kong smiled.
The theater said that the premiere of "The Female Blade" was very good, which gave him great confidence in defeating Xianyu this time.
Sudden.
The assistant's panicked cry came from outside: "Minister Ling has an accident, it's not good!"
Ling Kong's face darkened: "You have an accident, your whole family has an accident!"
The assistant came in breathlessly: "Mr. Ling, listen to me, the two film critics we were looking for changed their minds, and they suddenly refused to help us write a film review of "Resident Evil"!"
"Changed your mind?"
Ling Kong frowned: "If you change your mind, just change your mind, it's not a big problem."
The assistant said with a sad face: "The problem is not that they changed their minds, the problem is that after they changed their minds, they still publicly praised "Resident Evil"!"
"What?"
Ling Kong's cheeks suddenly twitched, and that uneasy feeling came back to his heart.
...
The assistant was right.
After Tu Zheng and Jia Haoren finished watching "Resident Evil", not only did they not criticize the movie, but they sang praises!
"Sensory shock, subversion of imagination, Xianyu can always find the most unexpected entry point, "Resident Evil", a movie that is destined to make you panic and frightened, and you can't stop, maybe in the future film industry, zombies and even zombies will come to life. It has become two concepts that are discussed separately..."
Jia Haoren mentioned the difference between zombies and zombies.
But Tu Zheng's comment is longer, also from the overall evaluation:
"Why did Xianyu's "Resident Evil" bring a brand-new sci-fi perspective? Before entering the cinema, I don't think anyone would have thought that the movie Xianyu filmed this time had such strong sci-fi elements. Everyone was stunned by the gimmick of zombies. Blinded.
It seems that Xianyu's movies can always surprise you so unexpectedly.
The whole movie is suspenseful, constantly making you curious, and constantly bringing you surprises.
Who is the heroine? What is the secret of these amnesiacs? Where did the zombies come from? Who will turn into a zombie? Who will survive? Why did the artificial intelligence Red Queen kill people? How to deal with the last lickers?
With doubts one after another, we became captives of Xianyu.
Like all viewers, I sat in front of the screen willingly, waiting for the answer to be revealed.
And when all the mysteries were revealed, when we thought we understood everything, the movie ended with a sudden twist.
Alice escaped from that damn lab.
She held up the gun defensively, the bullet was already loaded, but:
She was the only one left on the deserted street, and there was a mess everywhere.
Accompanied by the news reports that the living dead ravaged the city, this scene shocked me beyond the laser corridor representing death, and beyond the tide of zombies!
New questions arise.
In the fast, grand and high-burning music, the suspense is instantaneous and the passion is surging, the real can't stop! "
...
Tu Zheng's film review involves a slight spoiler, but it will not affect the viewing of the film.
As a well-known and influential film critic, Tu Zheng's film reviews naturally attracted a lot of comments from viewers!
"Could not agree more!"
"This movie completely subverts imagination!"
"Too beautiful!"
"The ending is really shocking. I even think that this is one of the most addictive endings of all commercial films. If the second part is released now, I will definitely buy a ticket without hesitation!"
"Sucking air-conditioning all the way!"
"I thought the Red Queen was a villain, but I finally found out that the purpose of the Red Queen is to protect humans!"
"The reversal of the Red Queen is indeed a classic, and the scene where Alice suddenly bursts out is also very cool, with sharp and handsome movements, and the charm of the heroine movie is brought into full play!"
certainly.
There are also many netizens who have not watched the movie in the comment area.
All of a sudden, they were annoyed by the comments from the first batch of audiences and film critics.
"Is it really so beautiful?"
"It sounds exciting!"
"I see that many people say that zombies and zombies are two concepts. What does this mean?"
"This movie actually involves artificial intelligence?"
"The Red Queen, Alice, isn't this the character in Chu Kuang's "Alice in Wonderland"?"
"No, you have to buy a ticket to see it!"
"Yeah, I'm tickled by the comments too, I'll watch it tonight!"
"What the hell are you playing?"
"I can't explain it to you. You'll know it after you read it. It's not good for you to slap me!"
...
Swish Swish Swish!
Film critic effect!
Audience word of mouth effect!
The superimposed explosive power of the two immediately made "Resident Evil" attract a huge number of viewers!

Everyone also found time to watch the movie one after another.

Ait Xiafan one by one!
Jiang Kui: "This movie is so good, Xia Fan, you are going to be popular, I want to lick the screen when I see your bathtub appearance!"
Sun Yaohuo: "Want fire? (Sunglasses) Who is calling me?"
Wei Haoyun: "It made me feel scared, it's the first time I watched a horror movie, I can barely stand it, Xia Fan is so handsome, my sister loves you!"
Zhao Yingchrome: "Okay, I have to admit that Xia Fan's figure is about 50-50 of mine. It's really surprising."
Chen Zhiyu: "This figure, tsk tsk tsk, I really don't pay attention to it at ordinary times, it's hard to say if it's not popular, well, the movie is so exciting, Teacher Xianyu will always be a god!"
at last.
Xia Fan himself appeared in the group: "Hey, you lsps should pay attention to their quality!"
...
The group was right.
In the next few days, Xia Fan was really popular, and "Resident Evil" was really popular!

Talk about this movie everywhere!
And the box office of "Resident Evil" is also rising steadily amidst many discussions!
As a movie of the same type, "Female Blade" was severely suppressed in front of this terrifying opponent!
a week later.
The box office of the movie "Resident Evil" has reached about one billion!
This is the craziest weekly box office of all Xianyu's movies, and there are many reasons for it.
One, as the continents merge, the audience grows and the market grows larger.
Second, as everyone gets to know each other through cultural exchanges, the tastes of audiences from different continents are getting closer and closer.
Third, the setting of zombies in "Resident Evil" is the first in Blue Star, and there has never been a movie of the same type before.
Fourth, Blue Star doesn't pay much attention to heroine movies, so there has never been a heroine movie before that can magnify the charm of the heroine to the level of Alice.
Fifth, film investment has cost a lot of money...
Therefore, "Resident Evil", which obviously did not have such a high box office on the earth, has created a very amazing result in Blue Star!
It was so amazing that Lin Yuan was startled.
In fact, it is mainly due to the increase in the number of viewers, and other reasons are secondary.
This made Lin Yuan suddenly realize that when the entire Blue Star merges, perhaps the box office of the film market will go completely crazy!
Because it's not just Resident Evil.
The average box office of Blue Star's other movies is also increasing year by year.
Each continent plays its own way, and it will not work in the future. The absence of a cultural wall means that the merged continent has lost its local market protection mechanism.
Some movies will kill all continents!
Of course, with the occurrence of this situation, the investment cost of film and television will definitely increase in the future. Compared with Blue Star, the laws of the film market on the earth have completely lost their reference.
...
The industry also had the same perception.
"With the tide of mergers, the film and television market is about to change."
"Now the box office of these movies is becoming more and more incomprehensible."
"Because the merger has made the movie viewing tastes of different continents more and more similar. In the past, different movies were popular in different continents because there were certain differences in people's tastes. When this difference gradually disappears, the movies people choose to watch will become more and more consistent. "
"When Zhongzhou joins the merger, a qualitative change will occur."
"It's changed a bit now. Before that, there were no movies that could easily exceed one billion box office in a week. As a result, including "Resident Evil", four films have exceeded one billion in a single week at the box office this year."
"Maybe Xianyu's movie can enter the top ten box office of the year."
"It's a bit of a crazy movie, and now there are a lot of companies thinking about writing zombie-themed movies."
Yes.
Although Lin Yuan's previous movies were also very popular, Blue Star is really too big, and there are many popular movies that can be accommodated in the same period.
therefore.
His previous films have not entered the top ten of Blue Star's annual box office.
But this "Resident Evil" has faintly appeared this sign.
Because this movie performed very well, the follow-up film schedule in various continents will definitely improve!
The more films are scheduled, the more audiences will increase. This is natural. Anyway, the word-of-mouth of the film is there, and commercial films have never lacked an audience base.
anyway.
In fact, a similar situation happened in China.
Before Xu Zheng's "Tai囧", the box office of Chinese movies was generally not high.
After that movie, the film market suddenly went crazy, and the box office ceiling was broken again and again.
It's not that the quality of the movie has improved.
It is purely that the film and television market has grown bigger.
And Blue Star has the premise and basis for the merger of the continents, so the explosion of this kind of movie market seems to be more traceable.
Some people may wonder:
Why is the box office of "Resident Evil" higher than Xianyu's previous movies?
Is it because Xianyu's previous movies can't be played?
of course not.
If "Spider-Man" was released now, the box office would not be what it was then.
It's like Master Xing's "Kung Fu".
In the market environment at that time, the box office of "Kung Fu" was only a few hundred million.
Behind him is the "Mermaid", which has a high box office.
This movie is definitely not as good as "Kung Fu", but the box office is many times that of the former.
in addition.
"Wolf Warrior 2", the highest-grossing film in China, has a box office of less than 6 billion, and it doesn't even rank in the top 50 of the global box office rankings.
But in Blue Star's market environment.
With the merger of the market and the absence of language barriers and cultural differences between continents, six billion will be an easy goal for the top film and television companies to achieve.
this moment.
Lin Yuan has greater expectations for movies, maybe it's time for him to set a small goal for the future.
for example……
Make a movie with a box office of over 10 billion?
