Chapter 4615 New Expectations
Can Chinese films make money in the West? What a joke! This is a common concept in the West. Although today, among the four major international film festivals, the Cannes International Film Festival, the Berlin International Film Festival, and the Venice International Film Festival are the three major film festivals in the world recognized by the International Film Producers Association. Of course, now we also include Lin Feng's Fengshen International Film Festival', Chinese films have repeatedly won awards.
But winning awards is a win, but not at the box office. In the West, the box office is usually a bummer. No matter how good a movie is in China, it will fail when it reaches the West, without exception. "Novel" novel chapters are updated the fastest
(ps: The American Oscar Film Festival is an American film festival. The Oscars never pay attention to the other three major film festivals, and the International Film Producers Association does not pay attention to the Oscars. What’s more, now that the Oscars are under The positive impact of Lin Feng's "Wind God International Film Festival" is also declining year by year!)
Of course, there are not entirely exceptions. For example, Jackie Chan's "Rush Hour" had the highest global box office, with a total box office of US$240 million, but it only had US$140 million in North America. The subsequent sequel "Rush Hour 2", the global box office total soared to 340 million U.S. dollars, and the North American box office also reached 226 million U.S. dollars. As for "Rush Hour 3", although its performance declined, with the global box office totaling only US$255 million, the North American box office still reached US$140 million.
This is indeed the best record created by a Hollywood blockbuster starring a Chinese movie star. However, this movie is the result of complete westernization. As for "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3: Miao Crisis", it has a completely Chinese-style movie plot and model. Will this be a hit? Western filmmakers absolutely don’t believe it. And among those who objected. Especially people from the American Motion Picture Association.
They are members of this association. All are committee members of the Oscars. However, Lin Feng came up with the "Wind God International Film Festival" to compete with others, and chose to have a head-on confrontation on that day. This is totally a slap in the face. Naturally, the two sides have long become enemies. Under such circumstances, they would naturally spare no effort to attack Lin Feng.
Someone immediately stood up.
It is simply a dream for a Chinese-style movie to surpass the classic "Lord of the Rings" at the global box office! Yes, "The Lord of the Rings" is adapted from Tolkien's novel "The Lord of the Rings" written during World War II.
"The Lord of the Rings" tells the story of the Holy War of the Ring at the end of the Third Age of Middle-earth. The story of free people fighting against Sauron and fighting for freedom. "The Lord of the Rings" took a total of twelve years to write, took four years to revise, and was published between 1954 and 1955. It is an epic fantasy novel written by J.R.R. Tolkien, a professor and linguist at Oxford University in the United Kingdom, and is recognized as the originator of modern fantasy literature.
And "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is just a movie based on a game that was very popular in China. As we all know, no matter how good a game is, if it is adapted into a movie, it will not do well at the box office and is not very popular in the market. Especially the screenwriter of this movie,
It was written by a person who was a half-way monk. Such a movie. It would be a blessing to have a global box office of hundreds of millions of dollars. Want to surpass "Lord of the Rings". That's an insult to Lord of the Rings.
Of course, Lam Feng is very rich, very rich, with a net worth of trillions of dollars. With just a little bit of his net worth, he can make the box office surpass "Lord of the Rings". If he really does this, then we can only congratulate him and hope that his next movie can create tens of billions of dollars in box office! Christopher Dodd, president of the Motion Picture Association of America, published his predictions for "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3: The Miao Crisis" on the official website of the Motion Picture Association of America. And he inferred that if Lin Feng hadn't spent money to buy tickets, then it would have been a miracle that "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3: Miao Crisis" could have exceeded 100 million US dollars at the box office in the United States.
Christopher Dodd's remarks were generally supported by the American film industry.
I think that although "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is a wonderful movie, it only meets the needs of Chinese audiences, but cannot meet the needs of American audiences. I believe that no matter how high the box office is in China, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" will be a miracle if it reaches US$100 million in the US box office! Even Keneng only has tens of millions of dollars! Paramount Pictures said on its official website.
$10 million in box office! I think "Legend of Sword and Fairy" can have a box office of US$10 million in the United States, which is already great! Even keneng will be less! Because this movie doesn't have any Western pop elements in it. The Walt Disney Company said.
$3 million! This is the most! Because this is a completely Lin Feng-style Chinese movie. It is popular in China because of the "Wind God Effect", so people will support it. But in the United States, American audiences won't accept these small favors. Lin Feng's tricks will not work in the United States! 3 million US dollars is already a lot! So says Samsung Columbia Pictures.
There is a chorus of naysayers across the United States. Of course, this is the attitude of members of the American Motion Picture Association. As for the general audience in the United States, they are cautious about this movie, which has set off a box office boom in China.
I think this movie should be. But whether it is good or not, we have to wait until it is actually released. However, I will go to see it once. After all, there are not many good movies recently, right? I will go to see it! If it is good, I will recommend it to my friends. If it is not good, I will tell my friends not to go to the cinema! American audiences express their attitude very faithfully.
For American audiences, their biggest entertainment hobby is to go to the cinema to watch a movie. After all, the cost of watching movies is too low compared to their income. Therefore, Americans go to the cinema to watch 9 movies on average every year, far exceeding the average of all countries. As for China, it is even more far behind. Chinese people go to the cinema once every 5 years on average. Of course, this number has increased recently. However, it is still far behind the United States.
Amid the outside world's discussions, "Chinese Paladin 3: The Miao Crisis" was officially released worldwide.
"Boss, there are still 2 hours before it is released worldwide. I hope the box office will be a big hit! Otherwise, those guys (people from the American Film Association) will succeed!" Lin Chiling prayed.
Lin Feng shrugged.
"It depends on whether the American audience will buy into "The Legend of Sword and Fairy". We have tried our best for this one. The rest depends on the aesthetics of the American audience! Will they buy into this kind of aesthetic conception of China!" Lin Feng said very bluntly.
Lin Feng is confident and also under pressure that "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" will break the box office record. But he won't worry too much. Anyway, the box office is like the rain or the marriage. You can't worry about it. It depends on whether the audiences of various countries support it or not.
"Oh, it hurts, it hurts!" Lin Feng suddenly grimaced and cried in pain. There was no way, Lin Feng was getting a tattoo.
It was agreed that he would tattoo the portraits of various women on his body, and Avril would act as a tattoo artist. She has many tattoos on her body, and practice makes perfect, so she can be considered a half-tattoo artist. But her hands and feet are really a bit...
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything, I won't say anything. You tattoo, you tattoo!" Lin Feng took a breath.
"Boss, there is a call from President Fengjian!" At this moment, Lin Chiling came over with the phone.
Lin Feng instinctively felt that the power of the tattoo machine's pen on his arm had increased significantly. And Lin Feng clearly heard a muffled groan.
This, jealous!
"Uh, that Huisi!" Lin Feng clearly felt that his arm was more painful, and quickly changed his address, "President Fengjian, what's the matter?"
Fengjian Huilisha is much older than the other girls, and has seen a lot, especially when it comes to things between men and women, she is even more experienced. As soon as she heard Lin Feng's tone change, she knew what happened. She smiled secretly, then changed to a very businesslike manner, and deliberately raised her voice.
"Boss, the head of the Ninth Game Development Department just called me and told me a good news. He said that they have launched a new game, ", which is based on "Warcraft 3: Frozen Throne" and is a multiplayer real-time battle with custom maps. It can support 10 people to play online at the same time. Two opposing teams will fight, usually 5v5, and the purpose of the game is to protect their own ancient ruins (the World Tree of the Sentinels and the Frozen Throne of the Scourge) and destroy the opponent's ancient ruins at the same time." Fengjian Huilisha introduced.
Lin Feng's eyes lit up when he heard this.
In the game industry, there has always been a legend that Blizzard's products must be excellent. Of course, this legend has also been inherited and carried forward by the "Second World". However, the production of Blizzard people still makes the entire "Second World" excited. Of course, this also includes the entire game industry.
"By the way, send me the game immediately. Forget it, the network transmission is too slow, you can send it directly. I'll let the helicopter pick you up! I want to see how this game is!" Lin Feng said excitedly.
The company's games are mainly "World War" and "Infinite Terror", which are two money-making machines. At present, Lin Feng does not think that there will be any game more attractive than these two games. However, Lin Feng hopes to enrich the types of games in his company. After all, Lin Feng's goal is to be the best, most outstanding, most unique and most irreplaceable game company in the world.
Therefore, more and richer games are needed. Not just a few games for players to choose from. After all, the gaming population is increasing, and the number of players is naturally increasing, and their age groups are also getting older, so there are naturally more choices!
While Lin Feng was waiting for the game, "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3: Miao Crisis" was released worldwide. To be continued...
