Rebirth Begins with a Manga Adaptation

Although the ratings and word-of-mouth of each film in the Spring Festival file are different, after the first day of release, there is actually no such outrageous gap in the box office.

Similar to what everyone predicted before the release, the top three box office films are Laputa, Fool, and Battle Front. After all, these three films are the most publicized and received the most attention before the release.

Sky City's 290 million on the first day, Frontline's 316 million, and Fool's 270 million made up the top three box office box office on the first day of the Spring Festival.

Then there are four other movies with box office exceeding 100 million on the first day.

Adding up all the movies in the entire Spring Festival, the total box office on the first day exceeded 1.5 billion.

From the data point of view, it is slightly worse than last year.

Because the movies released this year are very average, although the two movies of Fools and Front have a luxurious lineup, they are not too obvious.

Although Jing Yu's popularity is high, compared with those veteran actors who have worked in the film industry for decades, they are always at a disadvantage to some extent.

The most intuitive point is that Jing Yu's works are basically people under the age of 40. Those moviegoers in their 50s and 60s are hard to be attracted to the theater by Jing Yu. They only recognize familiar faces, but most of these people are Fascinated by the movie Battlefront.

It can only be said that each movie has its own advantages, even Jing Yu, it is difficult to rely on his own influence to call the wind and rain during the Spring Festival.

To be precise, there is no actor or work in the world who can easily win the box office championship in the biggest period of the year.

There was no such person in Jing Yu's previous life, and it was the same in Da Zhou.

The same is true for Hayao Miyazaki. Although he is the leading animation director in the island country, not all of his works are blockbusters. The well-known masterpieces are also the result of ten years of hard work.

Although the Castle of the Sky was very famous in Jing Yu's previous life, it was only in the field of animated films. Jing Yu made it live in Dazhou to compete with Dazhou's local movies, and he didn't think he could easily defeat all his opponents.

Da Zhou's film and television industry is only weaker than in his previous life, but it has not reached the difficulty of kindergarten level.

For a work to become popular, in addition to the quality of the work itself, marketing, publicity, lineup, and a little bit of luck are all crucial.

But Jing Yu has a big advantage over his competitors.

That is, all the works he produced are actually works that have been tested by the market in previous lives.

Before this work is released, what kind of response can it cause among the fans, where are its weaknesses, which characters are annoying to the audience, compared with the original work, some scenes should be deleted, and which lines of the protagonist will make the audience feel disgusted? Changes, which plot will most viewers feel stupid, if it cannot be deleted, where is the direction of its change without affecting the main line of the story?

It can be said that these experiences are the most crucial things for Jing Yu to keep winning in Da Zhou's film and television drama industry all these years.

This is also the biggest reason why Jing Yu felt that he was filming the attacking giant in Dazhou.

If Isayama knew that his giant's ending would be criticized by so many people, he might change the ending setting.

If Kishimoto knows that Sakura will be hated by so many people, and Hinata will be liked by so many people, I am afraid that in the early stage of Hokage, the content of the two roles will be changed. He even wanted to portray the popular king Kakashi as a passer-by role at the beginning, like Huibisi. As for Sakura, until Shippuden, he still wanted to forcibly portray the plot so that Naruto and Sakura could find an opportunity to like each other, confess their love, and fall in love.

For the creators, any plots that they think are good are often just their own unilateral fantasies before they come out. Any investor has full confidence in the works they invest in before the works are released, but less than one in ten can make a profit.

So Jing Yu's competitors, maybe the work can compete with Jing Yu in some aspects, but when it comes to the details of the work, the gap is reflected.

On the second day of its release, in the movie Battlefront, the protagonist’s team can’t be killed no matter how hard they fight, and the protagonist’s submachine gun can knock down a whole group of people, and the villain can kill the protagonist in the middle of the plot but stops for no reason. The IQ of the plot dropped, which was directly criticized by fans.

Of course, such things as military-themed movies are normal. Everyone definitely wants to watch heroism, but the promotion of this movie is to restore the slogan of the real battlefield. A small group of serious military fans said that they were deceived.

The Fool, on the other hand, was criticized by some people for being incorrect in the plot, and the jokes in many places were too embarrassing and deliberate

There is no perfect work in this world, and these small flaws will not affect the fact that these two works are excellent movies, but at this point in time, these flaws have been temporarily enlarged by Internet publicity.

After all, comparing these two movies, Laputa in the Sky has almost no bad reviews.

Of course, there are also some people who forcibly black, but their reasons are difficult to resonate with most audiences.

The plot is clean and tidy, the plot is not procrastinated, the special effects production level is above the standard, and the characters are plump and three-dimensional. In a modern century, the adventure stories of boys and girls in the age of steam machinery are presented in this way. Especially with the blessing of the famous song of the city of the sky.

Of course, this is just the opinion of the viewers of the big week. In fact, the original version of Castle in the Sky also has some shortcomings.

For example, there is a big gap between the front and back of the air bandits. The front is still a fierce and money-greedy air bandit, and the back is a loving air bandit. It’s not that this is impossible, but it needs to pave the way for the plot to make it look less abrupt.

The heroine's words are relatively soft after experiencing the whole work. The mid-stage plot is a bit confused and has no assertiveness, and she is led by the nose by the villain Muska.

Jing Yu has made small changes in the script that has been complained by many fans in the previous life, and the final result is...

From the second day after the film was released, Sky City's box office and word-of-mouth have both bucked the trend and surpassed the trend.

On the second day, the box office of Castle in the Sky closed at 317 million, while the daily box office of the two films, Fool and Front, both dropped by 10 to 15%.

Jing Yu also continued to pay attention to the box office trend.

Judging from this box office data, the opening box office was okay, and now it depends on its stamina.

"Tell me, how much will this movie get at the final box office?" Yu Youqing asked suddenly at home.

"Should be better than your name." Jing Yu thought for a while and said.

"In terms of schedule, the advantages of the Spring Festival stalls compared to the New Year's Day stalls are still obvious."

Of course, this is only Jing Yu's subjective judgment, and the actual box office is still highly variable.

"It feels like our company is developing so fast! It's the same every year, and now we can achieve this kind of achievement in the film industry." Yu Youqing sighed.

"That's natural. My goal is to make our company a top company in the TV drama industry and film industry in the next few years. In the true sense, it is a top company in the industry in terms of the number of works, achievements, and influence."

"Isn't it still?" Yu Youqing blinked and asked.

"The soft power is not enough now, it's a little bit worse. The whole company looks powerful on the surface, but in fact the reputation is all supported by my personal works. Let me give you an example. Once I suddenly get sick, I will cultivate for two or three years. Then our company will degenerate from a superficial top film and television company in the industry to a second-rate company in an instant," Jing Yu said with self-deprecation.

"It is impossible for a top company to fail without someone."

"You can't expect the company to create works that can match the quality of your works without your participation, right? No one in the whole week can fulfill your request." Yu Youqing looked at it speechlessly. Jing Yu.

"That's natural. It's impossible for me not to retire all my life and continue to create until I get old. I'm not a workaholic. And I hope that the future development of Dazhou's film and television industry will gradually have people who can compete with me, rather than being continuously rejected. I suppress it," Jing Yu said.

The conversation between Jing Yu and Yu Youqing ended at a suitable place.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the entire Bluestar Film and Television Culture Company resumed work in an all-round way, and the company's three major film crews were directly revived. First, filming began at the Shanghai Film and Television Base.

At the same time, Sky City, the company's hot movie, is the focus of the company's business center at the moment, and the marketing and publicity after the release has also increased with the hit of Sky City.

But the box office situation of the Spring Festival stalls is actually roughly the same as what Jing Yu expected at the beginning.

Castle in the Sky is indeed the movie with the best reputation during the Spring Festival, and it also temporarily ranks as the box office champion of the Spring Festival. The total box office broke 800 million in three days after its release. If there is no accident, this movie will be able to rely on the box office in two days. Earnings are paid back.

Since the third day of the film's release, The Fool has been involved in online public opinion due to some unsound plots in the movie, which directly affected its box office, which has dropped to 110 million per day. The movie Battle Front has maintained a strong stamina and the daily box office can hover around 200 million.

However, the box office of Castle in the Sky has not dropped by more than 300 million since the second day of its release. Jing Yu's fans are still frantically swiping three times and swiping four times to express the support of Jingyu. Has shown no small advantage.

And this situation directly silenced Jingyu's colleagues in the film industry.

Is it really that easy to make a movie?

"Our company releases a movie with a box office of over 200 million yuan, and the whole company has to celebrate with dinner. Why is this young man so good at it?"

"It's not that most of the bloody mothers who are transitioning from the TV industry to the film industry don't know each other, and don't count on Jing Yupu, but he is too strong, right? After six days of release, the total box office of Sky City has exceeded 1.5 billion."

"Now various organizations predict that the total box office of this movie will exceed 3.5 billion, and they almost think that Sky City is the box office champion of the Spring Festival."

"I really don't know how to say that."

"If Sky City can really break through 3.5 billion at the box office, then from last year's Qixi Festival to the current Spring Festival, the girl who crossed out of control is 700 million, your name is 3 billion at the box office, and Sky City's 3.5 billion box office is 300 million. For a one-year-old young man, in just half a year, as a screenwriter and actor participating in a movie, the total box office will be able to accumulate more than 7 billion box office."

"Combined with his previous two theater movies Rurouni Kenshin: Reminiscences of Rurouni Kenshin and Love Letter, which totaled more than two billion at the box office, do you think he will be like this? The total box office of his screenwriting career and film career has exceeded Ten billion!"

"Let's think about it, for the screenwriter, only six actors have achieved this achievement, including the sum of the box office of the main protagonist and the main supporting roles. There are only eight actors who can exceed this achievement. The director is even more Needless to say, there are nine directors of tens of billions of dollars in the whole week. But you have to say who can make more than two of these three types of work in the movie, and all of them can reach the box office level of tens of billions. So far, there is not a single one."

"If he achieves this achievement, it will be a new record!"

"Needless to say, he is now a new record."

"At the age of 31, when many film stars and famous screenwriters are still eating dirt, he has already achieved this kind of achievement."

"But the premise is that his film's box office will indeed exceed 3.5 billion, and it would be around 3.78 billion. Adding the cumulative box office of his previous films, the total box office of 10 billion should be stable. .”

"It's hard to say. The box office of the Spring Festival stalls actually started this week. After a week, when the national holiday is over and everyone returns to work, if they want to have a good box office performance, it depends on word of mouth. There is a wave of returnees who don’t have the opportunity to watch movies in their hometowns in the countryside, but after returning to work, they have the opportunity to pay for tickets when they return to the city where they work. However, these people will only choose to watch the movie with the best reputation.”

"Then you are not talking nonsense? The movie with the best box office during the Spring Festival, the highest reputation and the highest ratings is the city in the sky! Although Battle Front and Fool are also quite good, but in terms of details, the rate of negative reviews, compared to the city of the sky. In fact, what is the scariest thing about this person named Jing Yu?"

"It's his work, you can't find the hot spot! Small flaws, you must find them with a critical attitude, but there are no such big flaws at all. It's like predicting the market reaction in advance, so avoid it at the script stage. The shortcomings are lost. At most, the plots with different worldviews and perspectives caused by different hobbies will be controversial, such as whether it is worth sacrificing one person's life to save two people. Absolutely, everyone thinks that the plot is not good , never appeared."

"Maybe, this is his business sense! This kind of control of the market is the only way to keep a drama from rushing so far. Sigh. People compare to people, it's so annoying!"

During this period of time, my colleagues commented on Sky City and Jing Yu almost as soon as they got to work.

A few years ago, when Jing Yu's first movie was released, many people thought that he, who was in the TV drama industry, might be beaten up and watched as a joke.

It's only been four years, lol.

Jing Yu's works have been able to compete for the top box office in the Spring Festival stalls

Who can think of this?

Now everyone can only empty their heads and be too lazy to think. The more they think, the more they will be hit. They just want to wait and see, and see what kind of results Jing Yu's movie can achieve in the Spring Festival.
