Chapter 961 Respect the old and love the young
This year's Spring Festival movies are actually a bit crowded. There are obviously more blockbuster movies than last year, and movies with big selling potential are also increasing.
There is no lack of sequels to word-of-mouth works.
Like Monster Hunt 2...well, cross that out.
Such as Detective Chinatown 2.
Detective Chinatown is of course a very good IP, but Yueguan didn't grab it, and the style of this series doesn't suit him. He is not suitable for the two leading roles, so there is no need to keep it in his hands.
Miracle only got the copyright and investment rights of Detective Chinatown, and didn't get involved in the actual filming, just make money.
The box office of the first part of Detective Chinatown can only be said to be above average. Although it has a good reputation, it has not attracted too many people's attention. But Yue Guan knows that Detective Chinatown 2 will give everyone a huge surprise at the box office.
This is not to say that the quality of Detective Chinatown 2 is higher than that of the first Detective Chinatown. On the contrary, the quality of 2 is probably not as good as 1, but on the basis of 1, 2 may soar.
Similar examples actually include People on Journey and Thailand. Is the quality of Thailand really higher than People on Journey? But the box office of Lost in Thailand is more than ten times that of People on the Road.
If you want to make a sequel, the first one is done, even if it doesn't make much box office, it will always be useful later.
All efforts will not be in vain, and will always shine brightly in the future.
The first part of Feng Shen also has the same effect.
Including the first part of The Immortal Qin Empire that Yueguan is currently filming, he didn't rush to the box office, he just wanted to make a good start.
With a good start, it will be easy to operate later.
The second part of Detective Chinatown will definitely shine in this Spring Festival file, but the most threatening thing about this Spring Festival file is not Detective Chinatown 2, but another movie-Operation Red Sea by Lin Chaoxian .
As long as Lin Chaoxian doesn't go crazy and use his hard-working classmates as the leading actors to make a military blockbuster that is more literary than martial arts, the box office and quality of his movies can be expected.
In Operation Red Sea, Lin Chaoxian completely exploited his strengths and avoided his weaknesses, abandoning all literary dramas, and spent 95% of his time fighting.
This decision is absolutely correct.
The audience proved it with the box office.
In the previous life, Operation Red Sea came from behind, overpowering Detective Chinatown 2 and Monster Hunt 2 to become the top box office champion of this year's Spring Festival.
It has also been proved by practical actions that audiences really go to the cinema to have fun, and they don’t need to shoot so many literary dramas to show the actors’ acting skills. In terms of acting skills, Zhang Yi is much better than his hard-working classmates, and Operation Red Sea also did not show him acting skills. Chances are, but it's a big hit at the box office.
When it came to Emergency Rescue, the proportion of literary and drama seriously exceeded the standard, and Lin Chaoxian really dared to shoot. A military blockbuster with an investment of more than 700 million yuan is going to be filmed in a literary and colorful way. It can only be said that death is really unstoppable.
In Operation Red Sea, Lin Chaoxian hadn't committed suicide yet, so it was difficult to stop him.
Even so, Yue Guanming knew that the competition for this Spring Festival file was very strong, but he still agreed with Wang Jing to put New World in this Spring Festival file.
Because the power of Operation Red Sea and Detective Chinatown 2 is now only known to him and a few discerning people can guess.
But everyone knows how powerful New World is.
Starring Yue Guan, three of the Four Heavenly Kings will play supporting roles, one will sing the theme song, and Wang Jing will be the director. With this lineup, sand sculptures like Shangguan Xingfeng will not be unpopular.
Since New World was set for this year's Spring Festival, it has been recognized by everyone as the film most likely to become the box office champion of next year's Spring Festival.
The second place is not Operation Red Sea and Detective Chinatown 2, but Monster Hunt 2, because the first part of Monster Hunt also achieved great success at the box office, and the second part's The cast has become stronger, and Liang Chaowei's joining is unanimously favored by everyone, and he is the second seed after New World.
Yue Guan definitely doesn't think that Monster Hunt 2 is the opponent of New World, but this time the competition for the Spring Festival file is really interesting.
He must still be the most optimistic about New World. There is no way, he just has this box office appeal now, and the lineup of New World is really easy to sell if it sells feelings.
However, this year's Spring Festival stalls, Yueguan is expected to go hand in hand, and there will be no winner-take-all market.
Because there are a lot of good movies in this Spring Festival file.
When Yueguan brought Lin Yuner and Li Zhien appeared in front of the reporters, one after another, the reporters put the spotlight on one after another, but the three of Yueguan had long been used to this situation.
Lin Yuner even took the initiative to joke: Ouba, I guess there will be no scandal between the two of us.
For sure, the whole world knows that we have a good relationship, and IU and I hope to spread some rumors about it.
After all, the last time Li Zhien took the initiative to kiss him at the airport was also on the trending searches. Although it was later confirmed that it was for the hype of New World, this action is not fake.
It is generally believed that IU has a crush on Yueguan.
In this regard, Yue Guan said that you are right, the truth is like this.
Hearing what Yue Guan said, Li Zhien held Yue Guan's hand a little harder, but his expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly: Ouba, I am not the focus of the promotion of our drama, not even you.
Indeed, we just need to make soy sauce. Yue Guan deeply agreed.
In the drama New World, the Four Heavenly Kings have been the most popular so far. To be precise, the main focus is sentimental propaganda.
Feelings are almost universal, as long as it is the first time to use it, the audience will give face no matter what.
It may fail the second time.
For specific cases, please refer to The Mermaid in the previous life and Zhou Xingchi's later movies.
One of the four heavenly kings is singled out, and none of them is Zhou Xingchi's opponent in terms of box office appeal. But if the four are in one, they will definitely have the power to fight.
These four people add up, and there are really not many sentimental fans.
Even if they rushed to the cinema to see these four people on the same stage, some viewers would buy tickets with their eyes closed.
Coupled with the finishing touch of Yue Guan, this is why the outside world is unanimously optimistic about New World.
Wang Jing is a smart guy. With this lineup, he must put his feelings into the sky, otherwise it would be a waste of resources.
So even the order of appearance, Wang Jing also made the arrangement of the chicken thief.
Yue Guan brought Lin Yun'er and Li Zhi'en is not the finale.
The finale was the debut of the four heavenly kings all in suits and leather shoes.
Yueguan and the others hadn't finished their journey when they realized that the reporters had all left them alone.
Seeing the four uncles behind, Li Zhien intentionally provoked Yue Guan: Ouba, you have been robbed of the limelight.
Yue Guan smiled: Respect the old and love the young, anyway, after watching the movie, I must be the one who stands out the most.
