You made me a superstar

Chapter 215 The Darkest Hour!

"Why do our Huaxia movies only have this box office?"

"Is this data true or false?"

"it is true!"

"Are all of our Huaxia's export movies finished?"

"No way, there is a cultural gap between our Chinese films and overseas films. This gap has caused Chinese films to be unpopular overseas..."

"Then why can Hollywood movies kill us?"

"Because the Hollywood industry is more developed than ours, we are lagging behind others, and we are catching up. Our local films also have excellent works such as "Hero" and "Overlord"..."

"Hehe, besides these two?"

"..."

In the early morning of December [-]th.

The Chinese film authorities announced the box office results of ten Chinese blockbuster films exported overseas through formal channels throughout 06.

Ten Chinese blockbusters have been exported, and the total overseas box office is less than [-] million US dollars, and "Hero" accounts for more than half.

After announcing the earnings of blockbuster export films, the Chinese film authorities immediately announced the total box office of blockbuster imported films in China.

It also imported ten overseas blockbusters, with a total box office of an astonishing 20 billion RMB.

Converting 20 billion RMB into U.S. dollars seems to be the same as [-] million U.S. dollars, but...

Exporting movies is for the whole world...

As for imported movies, it only counts the box office of movies in one place in China.

After seeing this result, the Internet instantly boiled up. Many filmmakers were a little unbelievable at first, but netizens were a little dumbfounded.

Some people are explaining why Chinese films are not favored overseas. From the analysis of culture, techniques, and technology, they feel that Chinese films should cater to overseas markets in order to have room to survive...

How to cater to overseas markets?

Netizens looked at these analyzes and suddenly laughed angrily.

These analyzes seem to be full of grandeur, mixed with many jerky movie terms, but after careful reading several times, they found that these analyzes are full of "public knowledge" remarks of kneeling and licking foreigners.

Some people are discouraged, thinking that Huaxia movies are really not good, but some people cite "Heroes" and "Overlord", but...

After ten years of Huaxia movies, these two movies were born!

Of course, falling behind temporarily is not the source of sorrow. What really feels sad is that they can't see any hope of Huaxia movies rising.

The gloomy mood in the Chinese movie circle continued to be pushed to the extreme with the release of the movie "Superman"!

The box office of this movie that bombarded China for two months was finally fixed at a peak of 8000 million, breaking the new box office record of "Time Machine" under the shock of all filmmakers.

If it wasn't for the relevant departments to forcibly cancel the movie "Superman" in accordance with the regulations, "Superman" is very likely to reach the top of the box office with an astonishing [-] million yuan.

A new milestone, officially fixed in the history of Chinese film.

The record of "Hero" is still eye-catching, it is still the highest peak of Chinese local movies, and it is still being cited by people...

However, under the brilliance of "Superman", it looks a little pale, like a tragic hero.

The emotion that "Superman" brought to everyone did not last long, and "Jurassic" came to the Chinese film circle again as a king, leading its peripherals and various "dinosaur" comics, raging the streets and alleys of China...

The children scrambled for the "Jurassic" cartoons, pointed at the dinosaurs on them, and from time to time shouted out a sentence or two of "I want to go to the United States to see the Jurassic Dinosaur Park".

As of the early morning of November [-]th.

This movie, which has been released for less than a month, has already surpassed [-] million at the box office, once again surpassing the previous milestone "Time Machine"!
Movie fans can't get enough of it!
The novel special effects and the shocking 3D visual effects made everyone cheer heartily in the cinema, enjoying the shock brought by human technology...

However, some filmmakers in China felt a strong sense of powerlessness. They looked at the daunting Hollywood box office data, and at the same time looked at China's local box office data. The indescribable sense of gap even made them feel humiliated.

So far, none of the local movies can surpass "Time Machine"!

They never dreamed that in the last month of 06, Huaxia Films would suffer such a terrible impact.

And what makes them most desperate is...

On December 22, another Hollywood blockbuster "Spartan Warrior" will be released in China.

This is the last of the ten films imported in 06.

Although the production cost of this film is lower than that of "Superman" and "Jurassic", the response of this film in North America and Europe is very good. "Luo Ji", but it is also a unique existence.

No one would have imagined that the rise of "Heroes" did not make a good start for Chinese movies, but ushered in the most aggrieved and darkest moment for Chinese movies!
..............................

The morning of December [-]th.

The Chinese film authorities held a meeting with the old American film authorities.

Others didn't know what the content of the meeting was, but when Zhang Jianguo came back, An Xiao saw that Zhang Jianguo's face was full of seriousness.

Zhang Jianguo, who seldom smokes, smoked in the office all morning. While smoking, he looked at the documents. An Xiao couldn't help coughing when he came in, and then opened the window.

"Zhang Ke, what's wrong?"

"This year's data is very ugly, and the superiors are very angry..." Zhang Jianguo looked at An Xiao and shook his head.

"What is the content of the meeting of Huamei film authorities this time?" An Xiao naturally knows that this year imported movies are raging in China, and there are two more blockbuster movies "Superman" and "Jurassic" that bombard the world. The data of China's local movies can If it looks good, there will be ghosts. He is most concerned about the content of the meeting between Huaxia and the old American film authorities.

Although Huaxia and Laomei were not in the honeymoon period in 06, they basically communicated relatively smoothly. Although there were mutual dissatisfaction, some people in Laomei criticized Huaxia's national conditions and systems in private, but it did not affect the economic cooperation between the two sides...

Film cooperation naturally also belongs to the content of economics and culture, and every exchange meeting between China and the United States film authorities, there will be new information.

Zhang Jianguo shook his head after hearing An Xiao's words, and his mood seemed even more depressed: "The previous ten old American imported movies will double to twenty next year. Correspondingly, our exported movies will also get a series of old American movies." Support from the policy..."

"Twenty?" An Xiao was stunned after hearing the data: "Has the superior agreed?"

"Agreed, the details of the cooperation were finalized and the contract was signed today, and this cooperation resolution will become a formal project in two days..."

"Then next year's data may be even uglier..." An Xiao frowned deeply.

"Not necessarily, but next year we will have a few blockbusters, including "The Grandmaster" by Huang Jiacheng, "Mechanical Man" by Jiang Ge, and "The Golden Armor" by Zhou Yilin. Of course, there are also For other movies, the situation should be better than this year..." Zhang Jianguo shook his head: "But it is still impossible to break the previous peak of data, we can only hold on."

Then Zhang Jianguo added with a sigh of emotion: "China's film market is indeed huge, and many overseas companies are eyeing our market..."

An Xiao was silent.

She is pessimistic about the situation of Chinese films in 07.

"Is there "Fatal Crisis" in the imported movie?" An Xiao finally asked again.

"I have already applied to Fox, but Fox has not responded for the time being, saying that it will depend on the box office situation before replying carefully." Zhang Jianguo replied: "Chinese movie fans actually have expectations for Hollywood blockbusters, but that is only limited to Movies made by big Hollywood directors are not very enthusiastic about Hollywood blockbusters made by so-called Chinese directors, and Fox knows this."

"What about the movie "Saw"?" An Xiao asked again.

"Although I haven't seen the sample film, it is definitely impossible to import such a controversial film in the United States, unless a series of deletions are made. Moreover, this film may not be released in the United States, let alone imported to China. The older generation of Huaxia directors have a disgusted attitude towards Zhou Yang..." Zhang Jianguo just finished speaking when his cell phone rang.

He took out his mobile phone and answered the call, but after answering the call, his expression was very strange.

"Look, Cao Cao is here. President Feng of the Huaxia Directors' Association called me just now. He means that Zhou Yang's influence in Laomei is really bad. He is like a cancerous existence of Huaxia directors. He suggested that we block it." Zhou Yang, even if he doesn't ban him, he will be banned for two years so that Zhou Yang can reflect on it..." Zhang Jianguo showed a helpless expression on his face.

An Xiao's face was cold.

Just as she was about to say something, her cell phone rang.

She took the mobile phone and came to a secluded place to answer the call. Not long after, her cold expression eased a little.

"The schedule for Zhou Yang's new film has been confirmed in Laomei, and it will be on January [-]st. The distribution company has signed with Warner."

"Oh? Can this movie be released?" Zhang Jianguo was taken aback, suddenly a little unbelievable.

"Well, it can be released, and Warner's conditions for "Chain Saw" are the conditions for a blockbuster movie. They are very optimistic about this movie!"

"This movie has only been filmed for half a month?"

"Yes, but it doesn't affect people's optimism about him. Moreover, Zhang Ke, I hope you can follow up and react a little bit. If the movie "Chain Saw" meets the import requirements after the rectification, I hope to give some easing scale……"

"Okay, I'll try, but don't get your hopes up for this movie..."

"Ah."

........................

Time passed day by day.

After Christmas, the weather in Laomei is getting colder and colder.

At the end of December, the poster of the movie "Chain Saw" officially entered the major theaters in Laomei.

Many fans of Laomei feel unbelievable that this "cruel" movie can be released...

When they saw the big bright red characters on the poster: "Heart disease patients are not allowed to watch "Chain Saw"", they were a little surprised.

Immediately afterwards, they saw another piece of news.

"Oh my God, the official Warner Bros. moviegoers went to the hospital with a heart attack after watching Saw?"

"This……"

"..."

　The third one continues to be delivered~
