Chapter 594 Global Promotion

Jiang Heng clicked on the reply area of ​​the article and found that there were many netizens criticizing this film critic, and he felt instantly happy.

In fact, most audiences are relatively tolerant, otherwise the Chinese film market would not have been plagued by bad films for so many years.

Audiences are tricked time and time again into cinemas by so-called "famous directors" and "traffic superstars" to watch films with confusing plot logic and collapsed character settings.

Unless they are "trapped" too many times, the "box office appeal" of those "famous directors" and "superstars" will be worn away.

Just one or two box office failures won't have any impact.

As for the movie "The Return of the Great Sage", the so-called "fried rice" is nothing at all.

It should be noted that the film "Shituoling" was produced by Jiang Heng in 1999, so it is already sixteen years old.

After such a long time interval, it is normal for the plot to be slightly changed and the special effects to be more exquisite, it will be remade and re-released!

To say "fried rice" is simply nonsense. It repeats the works of the previous two years, which is fried rice overnight. Drawing on sixteen years of works, this is called paying homage to classics, right?

On Douban, there are a large number of Jiang Heng's fans who criticized the film critic from a similar angle.

Even some fanatical fans began to search for that person’s real information!

…

From the crew of "Jingwei Reclamation", Jiang Heng came back to continue filming, while Yang Mi expressed concern during a break: "This time, someone seems to be causing trouble!"

Jiang Heng smiled and said: "It is inevitable. I have been a "target" for so many years. I don't know how many people want to knock me down and make money unscrupulously in the future!"

Yang Mi smiled when she heard this: "That's true. Many people have said so. You have raised the quality threshold of Chinese-language films too high, and you have taken up the best two slots. Films with poor quality cannot be sold for much money at all. !”

Jiang Heng smiled, "So, they don't miss any opportunity to hit me! But it's not a big problem, bad movies can make money, not to mention the quality of my movie is excellent!"

"Then I believe it. When the film is finished, take me to see it!"

"no problem!"

Due to the tight schedule, the crew of "Jingwei Reclamation" did not stop work yesterday, but executive director Yuan De led the team to shoot.

Jiang Heng came here today just to take a look at the results of yesterday's shooting and to lay out the shooting plan for the next few days.

Although the market performance of his mythical blockbusters in European and American countries is far inferior to that of sci-fi blockbusters, the combined overseas box office revenue of 500 to 600 million U.S. dollars is still very promising.

Among them, the largest overseas ticket warehouse is North America, followed by Japan.

As for Europe, the markets in each country are not very big, but considered as a whole, they cannot be ignored.

Therefore, for the overseas promotion of "The Return of the Great Sage", Jiang Heng only went to three places.

One is Tokyo in Japan, the other is Los Angeles in old America, and the third is Paris in France.

Including transportation time, it takes almost a week.

Jiang Heng came to Yuande, looked at yesterday's shooting results, directed another day of shooting, discussed the shooting tasks for the next few days, and then returned to the capital.

Soon, Jiang Heng, Zhang Ruonan, Du Huan, Wu Yue, Chen Kun, Tao Hui and other people arrived in Tokyo by plane to attend the premiere ceremony held here.

Speaking of the Japanese market this year, due to the repeated impact of Hollywood blockbusters and Chinese special effects blockbusters, the local live-action film market has been extremely sluggish, so animated films can still maintain their popularity.

The more this happens, the more Japanese film producers pay more and more attention to Jiang Heng's special effects blockbusters. After all, whether theaters can make money during the summer depends entirely on movies from the two major countries of the East and West!

Toho Co., Ltd., which has maintained a long-term cooperative relationship with Jiang Heng, held a grand premiere ceremony. The event was very lively and there were many media reporters present.

Most Japanese media reporters don’t know much about the main actors in the film, such as Wu Yue, Chen Kun, Tao Hui, etc.

Zhang Ruonan, on the other hand, became popular in Japan with her performance in "The Three-Body Problem". At the event, reporters kept asking her about her work and life, especially whether she was in love and whether she would consider being with Jiang Heng. When asked, Zhang Ruonan almost lost control of her expression.

She really wanted to openly admit in front of the reporters that yes, we were together, but she could only think about it!

On the plane to Los Angeles, Zhang Ruonan suddenly sighed, "I almost admitted it just now!"

Jiang Heng was silent when he heard this. He just held Zhang Ruonan's hand and said nothing.

A few people in the back row only had curious expressions on their faces after hearing this.

After all, secrets are secrets to the outside world, but to people in the circle, there are no secrets at all.

Just like many "couples on the set", they don't go behind anyone's back at all.

The industry has also heard about some of Jiang Heng's affairs, but no one dared to break the news to the media.

After arriving in Los Angeles, Jiang Heng and others took a day off to attend the premiere of "The Return of the Great Sage" held by Columbia Pictures.

Prior to this, Columbia Pictures CEO Sanford Panich first communicated with Jiang Heng about the global release of the American version of "Alien".

"In two months, the post-production will be completed. Considering your movie schedule, we decided to release it on Christmas. How about it? This is a great decision, right?"

"Oh, that really couldn't be better, man!"

Jiang Heng was very happy to hear this. The overseas box office of "Alien Path" is already very high. This time, the film is based on the United States. It is conceivable that North American and European audiences should like it very much.

If it is really released globally in January or February, it will definitely affect the global box office of "Jingwei Filling the Sea".

It is really good news for him to release it on Christmas.

Of course, he also knows what Sanford Panitch thinks. It is definitely not because of personal relationships. In the final analysis, it is still a matter of interests.

Columbia Pictures introduces many Chinese-language films every year. Only Jiang Heng's works can be released on a large scale in the North American market, and they often enter the top five of the annual rankings or even win the championship.

And the agency distribution fees of these works have become Columbia's fixed income. Sanford Panitch must not let his "own" works compete with each other!

"So in December, we will hold a grand premiere ceremony. You must come to support us no matter what!"

"No problem, I will definitely support you!"

"Oh, that's really great! By the way, don't forget your beautiful actress, are you really not together?"

"Why do you ask this?"

"Nothing, I heard that during the filming, an actor in the crew pursued her, and she said she was pursuing you!"

Jiang Heng smiled, "Oh, I see!" (End of this chapter)
