Rebirth Begins with a Manga Adaptation

In fact, Spirited Away is not the kind of movie that you will find particularly amazing when you first see it.

The beginning of the story has a lot of foreshadowing, and all the plots are explored in various directions. The love line feels like it’s just the beginning. Chihiro’s bathhouse worker’s life line also ends just at the beginning. Strictly speaking, there is no conflict with Granny Tang. Solved, the background story between Granny Qian and Granny Tang is also a mystery, and most importantly, what is the ending of Xiao Bailong. There is no hint at all.

It is precisely because there are so many plots that end at the end, after watching this movie, I will feel so unforgettable.

I will look for analysis and comments on the Internet, I will pay attention to whether the creator will release a second film, and I will think about the follow-up plots that are not given in the film, but I can actually guess.

And the more you are involved in thinking about the worldview and plot of the work, then you will find out where the movie is really good.

Spirited Away's box office data on the first day was just the beginning. On the next day, many fans who made second and third times wrote movie reviews overwhelmingly on the Internet.

[Watching the movie with my son, he was happy that Chihiro's family was finally rescued, but I was thinking about the reality reflected in the movie. 】

[I thought it was just an ordinary romantic fantasy movie, and it would be the same as Jing Yu's previous works, but the result was far beyond my expectations. Now that I have watched it for the fifth time, I still have a new understanding. Obviously many places are ridiculed to reflect the contradictory phenomena in society, but it just doesn't make you feel that the play and the best film for this year's Spring Festival are well-deserved. 】

[This movie is neither about love, nor about friendship and family, but about growth. Every character in the movie has grown up by the end of the movie. Qianxun saved his parents, and Bailong made up his mind to escape from Granny Tang Control, so he did not hesitate to risk his life. Granny Tang's son learned to be considerate of others. From the image of a bear child on the stage to finally trying to protect Chihiro from leaving, many people will have a lot of reflection after watching the movie..】

[I don't quite understand what the movie-watching sentiments of people who are talking about Spirited Away on the Internet are, but I just feel that this movie is good. It wasn't until the third time I watched it that I still found it interesting. 】

[Another classic image of the old thief was born. Spirited Away, the male protagonist Xiao Bailong has reached the top of the popularity list of film and television characters, crushing the second place with three times the number of votes. 】

[After two years, the old thief returned to the theater with Spirited Away. He not only responded to the expectations of the fans, but also exceeded the expectations of the fans and made this movie so excellent. 】

[The box office broke close to 900 million on the first day, 700 million on the second day, and rose against the trend on the third day. The single-day box office reached 860 million again, and the total box office of Spirited Away has exceeded 25 in the three days of its release. Billion Mark. Spirited Away is coming so fiercely, is it really expected to break the ten-year box office record in the film industry? 】

[Spirited Away, with a third of the box office lineup, it has supported nearly half of the total box office of the Spring Festival so far. Its total box office on the fourth day exceeds 3 billion, but the total box office of the second-ranked film so far is only 1300000000】

[Spirited Away was released for four days, and 25%, 34%, 37%, and 38% of the films were scheduled. If it weren't for the related laws and regulations of the film and television industry in the Great Week that restricted the formulation of film schedules by theaters, the author believes that major theaters are willing to use Spirited Away. The proportion of box office screenings has been increased to 50%]

This Spring Festival file, before the release of each work, the outside world has predicted that Spirited Away has a high probability of being the box office champion.

After all, Jing Yu's popularity is there. To put it bluntly, as long as he is not afraid of blowing up his reputation and ruining his popularity, even if he makes a bad movie, it will not be a big problem at the box office of more than ten or two billion. The reasoning is the same as that of Director Zhou's Comedy King 2 in Jing Yu's previous life. Although the quality is impressive, the box office is not bad, but it was complained by many fans after the release.

Based on Jing Yu's popularity, as long as his movie is of a slightly higher quality, there is a high probability that the box office will break three billion.

But everyone really didn’t expect that Jingyu’s Spirited Away is not only of high quality, but ordinary audiences only care about the plot, which is very interesting. People in the industry analyze it from multiple perspectives, such as the plot, music, and the quality of the finished product.

Concept, connotation, rhythm, commerciality and artistry of the work.

It can be said that in the eyes of Da Zhou's colleagues, the movie Spirited Away has everything, and it is definitely the highest quality work in the Spring Festival file.

Of course, this does not mean that Spirited Away's works have reached the level of crushing the film industry of the Dazhou plane.

In the Great Zhou plane, there is no lack of excellent movies like Jingyu's previous life, Shawshank and Forrest Gump.

Compared with the pure satire of society and the movies that reflect social phenomena, Spirited Away definitely cannot reach the depth.

But its advantage is that the balance of Spirited Away in all aspects is relatively average, which can be seen from the fact that men, women, and children all think this movie is good-looking, coupled with Jing Yu's current appeal in the Great Zhou plane, and Under the propaganda campaign of local tyrants whose company is not short of money at all.

The box office growth trajectory of Spirited Away is already attacking the No. 1 position in the film history of the big week.

If Jing Yu came out with a movie like Spirited Away just after he came to this world, I am afraid that in the absence of funds, actors, directors, and the popularity of the screenwriter, its total box office would not even exceed one billion.

But if there is no if, the power that Jing Yu now controls in the film and television industry has made him a capital force that cannot be underestimated in the industry. Spirited Away is not fighting solely on the quality of works, but has capital. The blessing of strength.

Under such circumstances, it can be said that when the entire Spring Festival schedule comes to the fifth day, it has become a scene for everyone to watch a work of Spirited Away.

In addition, the films released at the same time have not struggled, additional publicity, high-priced ticket subsidies, buying through drafts, and hype starring news, all of which have been used by the management in the past, but none of them have worked.

The movie fans in Da Zhou are going to watch the movie just for Spirited Away, just for Jing Yu, couples go to the theater, if there are no tickets for Spirited Away for that show, they would rather just sit in the movie theater Waiting for another Spirited Away show an hour later, and I don't want to buy tickets for other movies.

What should I do?

Moreover, Spirited Away's film schedule is getting higher and higher, and it's not because Jing Yu and the theaters are making some py deals. The theaters also depend on their revenue, and the theaters also have tens of thousands of people to support. Jing Yu doesn't want to offend the entire film industry. In the same industry, so to a certain extent, he restrained the demand for Spirited Away's filming, and he still gave his competitors a certain living space.

But the theaters don't talk about martial arts, they only look at the rate of return, Jing Yu accepts it when he sees a good deal, and doesn't communicate with the theaters to add more films, but the theaters take the initiative to cut other movies that don't sell well To Spirited Away.

So it directly created the grand occasion of the seventh day of Spirited Away's release.

All Day Spirited Away 42%

It's just against the sky.

The faces of the producers behind the films released at the same time during the Spring Festival are all green, but what can be done?

No one watches your movie, and you still want other theaters to arrange movies for you. When the theater opens, it is for charity!

Although I am very unhappy with Jingyu and Blue Star Film and Television Culture Company in my heart, I can only hold back my unhappiness. This is how business competition is, people are fair and just, and they beat you with positive strength, not more kickbacks than whoever is behind the theater manager , scrambling to arrange films by improper means, and stealing the box office. In fact, everyone has nothing to say.

"It's bad, Jing Yu, the total box office has already exceeded 4 billion. In a few days, the total box office will become the number one in history." Cheng Lie blushed.

After the seven-day holiday for the Spring Festival ended, everyone in the company came to work one after another, with excited expressions on their faces, and Cheng Lie was no exception.

Although the current scale of Jingyu Company and the hundreds of millions of capital profits can no longer shock them these few start-ups, Spirited Away is worth billions at the box office, and there is still a chance to create a new history.

"Don't get too excited, the Spring Festival stalls are over. Starting today, Spirited Away will see a big drop in the box office. Don't look at the box office of 4.2 billion, which is only 1.9 billion away from the record target of 6 billion. If you travel a hundred miles and a half to ninety, the difference in the box office between the 1.9 billion is a natural barrier." Jing Yu said.

He wouldn't easily open champagne at halftime, after all, he had seen similar situations several times in his previous life.

The most typical one is the Spring Festival of the year when Tang Detective 3 was released. The total box office of this movie exceeded 3 billion in the first three or four days of its release, but in the end the release was added and the key was postponed, and the total screening time reached two to three months. , how much is the total box office?

It only broke 4 billion, not 5 billion, let alone the slogan of surpassing Husky 2 with a box office of more than 5 billion and becoming the number one in Huaguo.

In the first few days before the release, 80% of the box office of the whole film was collected, and the whole time after that was to slowly grind the box office.

Although Jing Yu was also very happy with Spirited Away's box office results in the first seven days, it was true that

He can't guarantee how much Spirited Away Dai's daily box office will drop after the Spring Festival stalls are over.

"Walk half a hundred miles and ninety miles, Jing Yu, although you are not majoring in literature, you speak with depth. Remember this sentence, and use it to pretend to be aggressive when you chat with friends next time." Cheng Lie heard the words He also had a serious expression on his face.

Jing Yu, the creator, didn't get carried away, but it was a little strange that he was preparing to open champagne at halftime.

"However, the total box office in seven days exceeded 4 billion. After all, in the next month, it is not a big problem to grind to 2 billion box office?" Cheng Lie tentatively asked Jing Yu's opinion.

"Well, I also think this is very possible. Although the urbanization process is high in Dazhou, there are still many people who don't have theaters after returning home from the Spring Festival holiday. After these people return to the city to work, there will be a wave of movie watching." Jing Yu expressed calm.

"But the problem is...we're not the only ones staring at this wave of movie watching."

"You mean?"

"For the 12 films of our same period, after the end of the seven-day period of the Spring Festival, only three works have been paid back, and the box office results of the other nine works." Jing Yu looked a little embarrassed, and said after deliberating for a long time.

"It's horrible."

After all, there is a movie in those works called "Yesterday!", a youthful and sad literature movie that was popular a few years ago.

It can be said that it is the only love movie during the Spring Festival schedule, but for this movie with an investment of 160 million yuan, in addition to 4.5% of the first day of the Spring Festival, only about 1% of the films are scheduled from the second day. This has also led to the total box office of the movie so far being only 60 million, and yesterday's daily box office was only 3 million.

"Making a movie is a gamble!" Jing Yu sighed.

Leaving aside his own works, Da Zhou releases hundreds of thousands of movies a year, of which less than one ten can make money at the box office.

There are still several movie works like "Yesterday" in this Spring Festival schedule. The managers behind these movies can only hope for the wave of movie viewing after the schedule to see if they can recover.

"So you're saying we should be kinder? Don't compete with them for this wave of audience?" Cheng Lie looked uncomfortable.

"How is it possible?" Jing Yu straightened his expression, and the sentimentality on his face disappeared.

"Although I'm not that interested in the extra tens or hundreds of millions of box office, but I'm very interested in the title of the number one box office movie in film history, just lamenting the cruelty of the film industry. In fact, from Tomorrow's Kaiji will be Spirited Away's real battlefield opening." Jing Yu said.

"I'll let the operation department work out the relevant plans in a while, and start promoting Spirited Away, the fan meeting, ticket supplements, etc. tomorrow, with all the people and horses in the big week, and try to make the last trace of the audience's desire to watch the movie come true. Squeeze it dry." Jing Yu said.

Just as Jing Yu expected, after the Spring Festival holiday, Spirited Away's box office fell off a cliff, and the box office dropped to 120 million in a single day.

In the past few days, those viewers who have done two or three times have basically dedicated all their love to the work. At this time, it is impossible to expect the fan economy to support the box office.

Even if many movie fans are willing to go to the movies, they will turn their attention to other works released during the Spring Festival.

But on this critical juncture.

Spirited Away's campaign is back on.

Advertisements frantically appeared on Dazhou Film History Forum, online shopping, entertainment, and video websites.

Moreover, it also cooperated with the theaters to continue to subsidize money and set up a large amount of ticket subsidies.

What is this operation?

You have paid back your money and earned enough money for Spirited Away. Is it meaningful to engage in these operations at this time?

An increase of 100 million box office is not too much to give you 30 million dividends. In the early stage of the film's release, when no one has seen the movie, a promotional fee of 1 yuan or ticket subsidies can bring considerable benefits. .

But in the case that most fans have seen the movie, is it meaningful to engage in a flood of movie promotion? Maybe the increased box office dividend is not as much as the publicity fee.

But everyone actually thought about it.

I also understood what Jing Yu did.

After Spirited Away's Spring Festival stalls, the box office dropped a lot. Jing Yu is determined to make Spirited Away reach the top of the box office, even if he pays a little more profit now, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, Spirited Away's investment plus publicity is only 5.6 billion to 100 million. Judging from the box office of Chihiro's current box office of more than 4.3 billion, the profit rate has reached 300%. This is not counting the follow-up of this movie. Copyright proceeds.

Under such circumstances, Jing Yu is naturally willing to invest a little money so that the chances of this movie reaching the top are a little higher.

Anyway, it’s impossible to lose money, it’s nothing more than making less money. Your publicity is an auxiliary effect, but ticket subsidies, an average of 40 yuan for movie tickets, your producer pays to subsidize the theater, and the price reaches 25 yuan. Those who are only sensitive to one thing, that is the price! The effect was astonishing. After all, even if this movie ticket was sold, in fact, the dividends that this movie ticket gave to Blue Star Film and Television were only deducted from the difference in the ticket price.

Of course, this kind of activity cannot continue, and Jing Yu only lasted for a short time, and when he felt that Spirited Away's box office performance was a little bit stable, he would immediately stop ticket subsidies and promotional activities.

In order to increase the chances of Spirited Away reaching the top and prevent accidents, Jing Yu directly made less money and yelled!

Jing Yu is pushing Spirited Away with this kind of mentality, and his other competitors will feel uncomfortable

Originally, I was expecting a wave of fans returning to watch movies after going to work during the Spring Festival, but now these people are attracted by Spirited Away's somewhat outrageous ticket supplement activities and promotions.

So reflow a wool! It all flowed back to Spirited Away.

As for those who follow suit and also engage in subsidies, these films are struggling at a loss, how about making up for it? I'm afraid that the family's wealth will be made up. So the major colleagues can only stare blankly. Some people are already thinking about how to sell their own movies at a high price on Qingyun and other video sites, and return blood.

The effect is obvious. On the ninth day after Spirited Away was released, the daily box office soared from the previous 120 million to more than 200 million.
