Judging from the trailer, there are more trailers in Bookland, and the trailer lasts more than one minute. Fans can basically understand what type of work this is by watching the trailer!
But Spirited Away is a lot more mysterious. Some of the pictures of the protagonist Chihiro are dressed in modern people, and they seem to flash past some modern buildings!
But the plot is more lazy and bizarre. The trailer for more than 20 seconds starts with Chihiro riding on a white dragon, and the scene that flashes in the middle is like a sauna room!
And there are spider monsters, frog monsters in the sauna, and of course...there are also the beautiful boys in white who are coveted by fans!
After all, the characters in the animation want him to look beautiful and handsome, and the role of spending money is still there.
In general, Chu Yu will not change the character style, but the subtleties will still be adjusted!
But basically, the twenty-second preview plot is enough to give fans who have been looking forward to this work for a long time with enough imagination!
"Shocked, the girl strayed into the sauna to work as a child laborer. The strangers inside were not people! Is this a distortion of human nature or a loss of morality?"
"Why is the above sentence so evil by you?"
"But to be honest, should Spirited Away make it so mysterious? The trailer of Jiang Qi's book world is basically very attractive. To be honest, the trailer of Spirited Away is completely unaware of it. What story are you going to tell?"
"It is said to be a fantasy type!"
"Nonsense, I know that group of monsters and ghosts is not a normal world, I mean, what is the main story line?"
"I hope not to be as slow as a slam dunk!"
"How do you think it is possible? The protagonist in Slam Dunk tm Chapter 13 starts the game, and the first game of this work is finished in Chapter 19. Spirited Away, a two-hour movie in total, like Dunk is the animation company’s boss I don’t have to burn, right? If I can get 50 million at the box office, I will lose, and I won’t lose him!"
"That's right, I have seen slow-moving TV series and anime, and never seen a slow-moving movie. Indeed, the time length of the movie is not allowed to be slow-moving!"
"It's just that until now, although I have been looking forward to Spirited Away, the lesson for slam dunk is right in front of me, I hope this work is normal!"
"Indeed, Spirited Away's investment of 450 million yuan, normally at least 1.3 billion yuan at the box office to pay back, Long Guo has only nine movies at the box office last year, and five of them are more than one billion box office. Yes, there are two with more than 2 billion box office, one with more than 3 billion box office, and last year's box office champion, the total box office is close to 5 billion...There is no animation film in it. Last year, the highest grossing box office of an animated movie was only over 700 million.... After all, everyone likes to watch serialized animations, not to animated movies!"
"Moreover, the works that were released on the same day as Spirited Away also have Shujing. The dates for the two works to be released were to avoid the strong enemies in the summer file..........choose to be released in early July!"
"Summer files aren't really amazing movies, right? Really speaking of investment, Spirited Away and Shujing are actually big investments in animation. Are you afraid of those?"
"Indeed, Book World invested 400 million yuan, and Spirited Away’s 450 million yuan investment was the two largest films in the movie released in July. However, the movie is not based on the investment amount. Many movies have asked for one. A pile of big-name celebrities may be badly produced, but in terms of popularity, I don’t know how much it surpasses the two animation films. It is normal for Tianxing and gt animation companies to be a little bit virtual, right!
...........
After the trailers of the two works were broadcast, the crowd on the Internet discussed the contents of the trailers.
However, there is one thing that these people think wrong. Tianxing did not want to compete with the summer movies in mid-July when choosing the early July. Let’s fight for the big piece of cake in the summer file!
It would be better to eat this small piece of cake by yourself at the beginning of July when the elementary and middle school students of Quanlong Elementary School are close to the holiday, and there is a time difference of eight or nine days!
However, what Tianxing didn’t expect was that the gt animation company on the island of Japan really went to bed with them. The release date must be reported in advance and it is impossible to conceal it. Therefore, Huang Ming followed Chuyu’s request. Whether it’s the release of the trailer or the fixed date, it’s the same day...........
Chu Yu personally feels that a work like Spirited Away, the time limit for it, but basically does not play a decisive factor, naturally does not care when it will be released!
But Tianxing feels very disgusting, no matter how the quality of Spirited Away's work is, what will happen to the box office battle with the book? But there is no doubt that two animated films of the same type will have a huge impact on each other when they are released on the same day.
Unlike online chasing fans, most people don’t have the time and energy to watch two movies in a row, so... the result of the competition between Shujing and Spirited Away is most likely, According to public opinion, the box office performance of the loser in the word-of-mouth war will be much worse than that of the normal scheduled release. After all, there is only time to watch one movie, so everyone will definitely choose the best rated one!
There is no shortage of this kind of situation in the film industry of Longguo. Before the release, the professionals agreed that a movie with a box office of more than one billion yuan, a dark horse movie of the same genre appeared during the same period, and its popularity and attention were all attracted in the past. In the end, let alone one billion box office for this work, it didn't even break 500 million!
On Chu Yu's side, his gaze was staring at Tianxing, while on Tianxing's side, there was a disagreement within the company regarding the approaching release date of the book.
"I think we initially selected the release schedule of Bookland at the beginning of July. The purpose was to not want to smash with the dozen or so films in the summer on July 10th, and release them one week in advance to form a good reputation among the fan community. Wait until a week. After that, you can still get a lot of summer bonuses! Although the work has been released for a week, the freshness of the work has declined, and I will definitely not be able to eat the biggest bite of cake, but the overall risk will be much smaller... .... But now...
"If Cheng Yaojin was killed halfway, it would be better for us to directly change the file and have a head-to-head with those dozen physical movies. Anyway, we are not false in terms of investment and propaganda! Although the risks are high, the returns will also increase. High!" A senior executive of Tianxing Company raised doubts at this meeting.
"I don't agree. The slam dunk player directly collides with our company's basketball style. Although the slam dunk reviews have eased in the past two weeks, our company's basketball style obviously has an absolute popularity advantage........ This proves that the gt animation company on the island of Japan and the genius girl Zhao Qinyin are just getting a false name. As the leading animation production company in the inland, if we suddenly change the book environment at this time, wouldn’t it be wrong? We are afraid of each other?" Another person immediately retorted.
"That is, the other party is just an animation company that was on the verge of bankruptcy two years ago. What is there to be afraid of? How can we lose to the other party if we have invested such a large amount of money to produce animation?"
"Forget it, cl's animation miracles are still vivid for everyone now. It was just a few months ago. Now the reputation of slam dunk is rising. Although we can't belittle ourselves, who knows that Spirited Away is a work. What's the situation? To be more ugly, it may be the level of Zhao Qinyin's street-bashing comic two years ago... But what if it is Wang Zhan?"
..........
At the meeting, a group of people quarreled endlessly, and Yin Tian frowned directly to signal everyone to be quiet.
Although he is the chairman of the company, he also has other directors. There are few listed companies with a scale of tens of billions of which are fully controlled by individuals. The same is true for Tianxing. Although Yin Tian is the largest shareholder, his equity is not so big that he can speak for himself. !
The company cooperates with lba to produce animation, and the profit on the surface is second, but the profit on the capital market is even greater in the dark. Even if he makes a decision, he has to consider the opinions of other shareholders.
Although Yin Tian is not afraid of the small company on the island of Japan, and the so-called genius girl Zhao Qinyin...but the remaining seven or eight main small and medium shareholders of the company are very conservative.
The main purpose of Tianxing’s production of Shujing’s animation film is to make a profit at the box office. The focus is to break the box office record of 1.63 billion set by "Qingluan", the top box office of Longguo animation film three years ago. !
Although this achievement is not a big deal in all movies, and the Dragon Kingdom movie rankings are only fifty or sixty, it is already the top box office list of some niche categories of animated movies!
It can be said that when the project was established in the book realm, the entire sky star was also working hard in this direction and this purpose.
As long as this goal is achieved, the company’s profit margins, performance, and so on, the market’s confidence in Tianxing will rise, and Tianxing’s stock price will definitely rise. They are manipulating the capital market and cutting the leeks. Then everyone All earn!
Yin Tian and none of this group of shareholders say that they are sitting here for the healthy development of Longguo animation industry, they are just fancy interests.
But everyone never expected that Zhao Qinyin and Cheng Yaojin from gt animation company came out, and the pre-planned plan now has a sharp increase in risk.
The issue that Yin Tian has to consider now is that with the production, investment, publicity, and exposure of Spirited Away this work that is not weaker than that of the book, in early July, under the fairly normal schedule, and With the summer vacation in the second week, can Shujing surpass "Qingluan"'s 1.63 billion box office record?
If you can't complete this task, even if Spirited Away has suffered a heavy loss due to a self-destructive fight, what good will Yin Tian do to Tian Xing? It's nothing more than a relief, it's useless at all 2
"Those bugs!" Yin Tian clenched his fists.
For the first time, he felt a sense of awkwardness. Under the premise that he could not use official power to suppress the other party, gt animation company and Zhao Qinyin, this combination of cards played out of common sense really made him sick!
An enemy who doesn't care whether he is profitable, just wants to suppress you, and even drags you to self-destruct, what can you do?
And Yin Tian still doesn’t know exactly where the other party went to take the rat poison, just because he taunted them several times in public. That’s it....he Yin Tian is in the Dragon Kingdom animation industry. I have never been so overbearing! At least I will laugh and talk to each other a few times before I start!
"This matter will be discussed later..." Yin Tian defined the meeting.
Yin Tian doesn’t think that his company’s book environment will lose to the other’s Spirited Away, but the risk of two works being released together is indeed too high. The book environment schedule proposed by the staff at the meeting is postponed by one week, and it’s not a matter of going directly to the summer vacation file. No!
The risks are greater, but the benefits will be greater! What if those so-called big stars joined the movies in the summer vacation are all paper tigers, what if you don't want to use it? When the book environment traffic becomes the number one in summer vacation movies, let alone one billion records, two billion box office records are just around the corner!
After all, Longguo Entertainment's film and animation industry has not only a high online payment rate, but also a high national viewing rate. The annual summer box office champion, 2 billion box office start, 3 billion, even the runner-up has a dozen or twenty Billion box office! It's not worth it to go head-to-head with Yin Tian!
As to whether the outside world thinks that Tianxing is afraid of the other party, that doesn't matter... he only cares about interests!
"Let’s take a look at the next performance of Slam Dunk! After all, the two works were produced by Zhao Qinyin at the same time. If the follow-up drama of Slam Dunk is generally popular, it proves that her creation of the two works is not in good condition. Spirited Away The probability will be a work of the same level, so there is nothing terrible! On the contrary, it means that the other party is in good condition, and it is not impossible to shift the gear..." Yin Tian took a deep breath, and the eyes flashed. A hint of sharpness.
........
Chu Yu, who was far away on the island of Japan, didn't know that his plot actually caused Yin Tian a lot of trouble.
In the past few days, he has been busy reviewing the company’s various businesses, especially Spirited Away. After all, the animation production time is tight. Even if he has been adding people in the follow-up, it will take mid-to-early June to wait until the work is completed. Matsuoka, the actual animation director, is now almost as slow as the Tianzhu company a week or three, and there are many members who do not wash their hair and beehives for five or six days in the production team under his leadership!
Su Lu also didn't have the energy to come and chat with him all day long. He was away from the company for several days a week, and he went out all over Japan to negotiate with partners.
After all, Huang Ming is in charge of the inland market, and the Japanese island market is her main management.
Compared with serialized animation, there is a long time to deal with problems. The release of an animated film is an opportunity to explode in the near-release period!
Except for Chu Yu, everyone in the entire company was immersed in a kind of pressure.
A few weeks before the slam dunk, the plot is not good, and the word-of-mouth can be remedied later, but an animated movie like Spirited Away...........It can be said that the word-of-mouth and box office on the first day of release are decided. Its approximate results.
"How is it? Do you miss Sister Su?"
Zhao Qinyin put a cup of tea next to Chu Yu and asked softly.
"No, she just left for a long time, what do I think she is doing?" Chu Yu regained consciousness and responded subconsciously.
"That means, if she walks for a long time...you will miss her?" Zhao Qinyin narrowed his eyes.
Yes!
Chu Yugang wanted to say this, and immediately reacted and looked up.
Today’s Zhao Qinyin is dressed as usual, with black hair, black silk, and black dress.............Just looking at the appearance of a beautiful high school student with long and straight black hair, I don’t even think about it. Those who graduated from university for two years.
Having been with Chu Yu for a long time, she also understands Chu Yu's hobbies!
"How did you come?"
"When things are done, I will come to see you!"
Zhao Qinyin gently sat on the chair next to Chu Yu, and a fragrant wind rushed in. From this angle, Chu Yu could see her slender black silk calves and white neck. Chu Yu moved his eyes slightly.
"Just rest when things are done, there is no need to always run to my place!" Chu Yu coughed and said.
"If that's the case, when would you like me? I used to be on a business trip, but now Sister Su is on a business trip..........I am entitled to have a space with you!" Zhao Qinyin stared at Chu Yu.
Again..........
Chu Yu Khan, she and Su Lu are very similar in this respect, the light bulb is no longer there, so I will come over to look for opportunities right away.
"You should give up too, it's been so long!" Chu Yu paused and said.
Although Chu Yu does believe that he has a good impression of Zhao Qinyin, he is completely afraid to act rashly. After all, Su Lu’s matter has not been resolved yet, and there is another Zhao Qinyin who is eyeing Zhao Qinyin... Big head Although he didn't think so in his heart, his reason still let him warn the other party like this, and he was upright in his mouth!
"You should treat this kind of thinking equally... instead of just double-labeling me shamelessly!" Zhao Qinyin's tone is calm, but his words are pointed.
When Chu Yu heard this, his heart jumped!
"What do you mean by this?"
"What do I mean, you know in your heart!"
Zhao Qinyin stared at Chu Yu's eyes, Chu Yu felt that all the secrets were being seen through by her, and her heart suddenly became empty.
Does she know about Su Lu and me?
She still said that she felt that I and Su Lu were a little closer during this time, but she treated her as usual...
Chu Yu didn't know the specific meaning of Zhao Qinyin's words, but the other party did not take the initiative to say it. He would definitely not be deceived by the other side, as usual.
"I have always been like this, there is no double standard!" Chu Yu said with a flushed face.
Zhao Qinyin looked at him for a few seconds, then looked away.
"You..." she said.
But in the end, nothing was said.
"It's almost noon, and the latest update of Slam Dunk will be broadcast right away! I want to watch it with you!" Zhao Qinyin paused, and finally said.
"Uh, no problem!" Chu Yu was a little embarrassed, but she wouldn't refuse her even this request.
Although there are three people together on weekdays, there is no way for Su Lu on a business trip now!
For a while, Chu Yu was a little bit contemplative. After all, the time spent alone with two people like Zhao Qinyin was very rare!
