My Animation Era

   "I said "Golden Rooster Dawn" is the ceiling of domestic animation films, no one should have any objection?"

   "Come on, where did you put The Lion King?"

  “Seriously speaking, “The Lion King” is really not a purely domestic animation film, it also tells a western story, and “Golden Rooster” is more orthodox.”

   "The orthodoxy is simply ridiculous, "The Golden Rooster" is only a popcorn-level movie, and you guys blow it too much..."

  On the first day of the Lunar New Year, with the hot release of the movie "Golden Rooster Dawn", there were many voices discussing this movie on the Internet.

   Gu Miao glanced at the comments from netizens.

   It can only be said that the overall reputation is relatively good, and the few negative reviews do not affect the overall situation at all. For an "animated movie with fans' feelings", this opening is already a dream.

  If you are an old fan of the "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" animation series, after watching the movie, you will definitely feel that it is worth the money.

  Brilliant superpowers, exciting plots, a brand-new eccentric world, smooth and crisp fighting...

  The movie "Golden Rooster Clarifies the Dawn", as a big movie for fans, has indeed done much better than the previous "Happy Year of the Monkey".

   Fans are not blind.

  Precisely because they saw the excellence of the Year of the Rooster movie, they spared no effort to support "Golden Rooster Dawn" on the Internet.

   It's not just word of mouth.

  The premiere box office of the film has also reached an astonishing new historical height with the double blessing of high film scheduling rate and excellent word-of-mouth.

  …

  On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Gu's villa.

   "371 million?!"

   Gu Miao, who was showing off her cooking skills in front of the integrated stove, wiped her apron with her hand, and then asked Lao Zhang on the other end of the phone, "Have you verified it? Are you really this tall?"

   "Verified, it's true!"

   "We set a new record for an animated film, 370 million! I can't even imagine that this is actually the single-day box office of an animated film..."

  Old Zhang on the phone was obviously more excited than Gu Miao. Even through the phone, he could still feel Lao Zhang's cheerful and joyful mood.

   More than Lao Zhang?

  When he himself heard the figure of 371 million, he was also very excited.

   What is the concept of 370 million in a single day?

  This means that the movie "Golden Rooster Dawn" has almost entered the 1 billion box office club with one foot, and even the 2 billion box office can be expected.

   This is amazing!

  Although Wanbao already has an animated movie such as "The Lion King", what level of project is the Lion King?

  In terms of production costs alone, the cost of one "Lion King" movie is enough to make five "Golden Rooster Dawn" or even more.

  So this comparison is meaningless.

  The production cost of "Golden Rooster" is there. This is not a high-investment and high-return project like "The Lion King", so the single-day box office of 370 million is very valuable.

  It can be boldly said that the film has recovered the production cost from the first day of its premiere.

  Wuhu, take off!

  Even with Gu Miao's calm mind, she couldn't stop smiling when she heard the news that "Golden Rooster Heralds the Dawn" only took one day to pay back.

  1 billion should be stable.

  The single-day box office is 371 million. If the total box office is less than one billion, Gu Miao will dare to go to the toilet and eat shit. After all, the probability of such a thing happening is too low.

   But whether the total box office can break through the 2 billion mark is hard to say.

  Although judging from the single-day results and the film’s reputation, it shouldn’t be a big problem, but the box office is too metaphysical, and you think it’s not necessarily sure.

   "However, the chances are great!"

  During the phone call to his apprentice Guo Hongwei, Gu Miao seriously urged: "Intensify the propaganda, 2 billion is not a big problem, and 3 billion can even hit it."

   "3 billion? I dare not think!"

  Guo Hongwei said in shock: "The box office of domestic animation films can exceed 3 billion. Master, you haven't woken up yet, have you?"

  When did box office numbers inflate so quickly? Billions and billions going up?

   If he remembers correctly, it was difficult for the box office to exceed 100 million in the past. Whoever has an animated film with a box office of over 100 million is the object of admiration and admiration for the entire industry.

   "You say that is the past, can the past be compared with the present? There were only a few big screens in the country before, but how many are there now?"

  Gu Miao didn't feel that the goals she set were exaggerated, on the contrary, she felt a little conservative.

  On the one hand, according to the development process of the times, the past few years are indeed the golden period when the number of screens in domestic theaters has surged and the box office of domestic movies has begun to grow by leaps and bounds.

  Many bad movies released at the same time can earn more than one billion box office after taking advantage of the development bonus of the times. Why can't "Golden Rooster" not work?

  On the other hand, the source of the estimated box office is generally judged based on various data of the film, including the word-of-mouth response after the release.

  The data of "Golden Rooster" is so good, the popularity is also exaggerated, and it has double insurance of word-of-mouth and feelings. It is really not difficult to set a high goal.

Moreover.

  It's just a goal, Gu Miao didn't say that it must be achieved. This is the same as many senior high school students who open their mouths and shut their mouths about the resumption of diplomatic relations between the Qing Dynasty and the North. Could it be said that they can pass the exam 100% if they just set their goals?

   "Then I understand."

   After learning that 3 billion was only a long-term goal set for the film, Guo Hongwei was relieved.

  The military order he issued was just to ensure that the performance and word-of-mouth of "Golden Rooster Heralds the Dawn" would not lose to its predecessor, the Year of the Monkey movie. As a result, the master opened his mouth and it was 2 billion 3 billion, and he couldn't even make it up.

   "Don't panic!"

  Gu Miao joked with a smile: "According to the current box office trend and the market situation, "Golden Rooster Heralds Dawn" is stable at one billion, and it is expected to be two billion. The military order has been achieved."

   No need to deduct two-year bonus!

   For Guo Hongwei, there should be no pressure. Why does this kid still look sad after he has obtained the military order?

   "Master, take a look at the situation of the films in the same period! Although we lead with 371 million, the second place is quite scary..."

   Is there such a thing?

   Gu Miao, who only cared about the situation of "Golden Rooster Heralds the Dawn" and didn't pay much attention to other movies, immediately went to the Internet to check it when she heard this.

   Oh!

  If you don’t check, you don’t know. If you check, you will be shocked.

  An action comedy movie released at the same time, even scored 340 million box office on the first day of the new year, only 30 million lower than "Golden Rooster Dawn".

   But it’s not right?

   Gu Miao, who just felt a little nervous, seemed to have thought of something, and couldn't help muttering, "I haven't seen anyone discussing this movie on the Internet?"

  A movie with such a high box office, only slightly worse than "Golden Rooster Dawn", should be very popular, but there are not many people discussing it on the Internet, and no one around has heard of it.

   This is very strange...
