Chapter 2123 Who is the villain?
The two of them smiled bitterly at the same time, they really didn’t have much confidence.
A successful movie requires many factors.
Putting aside movies like "Blair Witch" and "The Ghost Story", other commercial blockbusters are like a detailed structure.
Popular actors, outstanding characters, complete and thrilling storylines, realistic scenes...
Both are indispensable.
But now?
The popularity of these two old guys is rising now, but they only have one or two million. Even if the situation is good, by the time the movie is released, the popularity of Breaking the Sky will be six to seven million, which is pretty good.
Compared with the popularity and traffic of those little fresh meats that easily reach hundreds of millions now, it is simply far behind.
They are not afraid of acting skills, they have them all.
The story is not bad, but there is a problem. Shooting movies are almost extinct in theaters.
No matter how many people see this type, they may not be very interested.
In addition, the two of them have little appeal, and Cage is still the legendary king of bad movies. How can he attract everyone to come to the theater?
Even if they have confidence in this movie, they can perform well with its good reputation.
300 million is already their expectation, and the high point is 500 million!
I don’t dare to expect to be ranked in the top ten of the year. For gun battle movies, this is almost out of reach.
An Ran stared at the two of them and said: "Look at you two, you have no confidence at all, no confidence in yourself, no confidence in me? When have I ever made a mistake in my prediction?"
When this movie was on Earth, it was in the top ten of the year, becoming the ceiling for pure gunfight movies.
When looking at the box office, Enron remembers that the global box office is 340 million.
At that time, the construction of movie theaters in China had not started yet, and this movie had not been introduced. Without this big market, it still sold 340 million yuan, which shows the strong fighting power of this movie.
Now at Blue Star, you don’t have to worry about it at all.
Just a Xizhou area can be sold for at least 500 million. This is a conservative estimate. After all, there are many more people in Xizhou than in the beautiful country on earth.
Xizhou alone has a population of more than 700 million, and cinema construction is also very comprehensive.
Moreover, this movie sold 340 million yuan. That was in the late 1990s, and the money was much more valuable than it is now.
Enron feels that his expectations are very conservative, and there is no problem between 800 million and 1 billion.
Coupled with the large market of Xiazhou, a bold estimate of 1.5 billion is no problem.
The two of them saw him thinking deeply, and they didn't know what he was thinking.
Cage said: "Boss, if the box office is not as good as expected..."
An Ran interrupted him with a wave of his hand, "Nothing is worse than expected. Miracles are all created by people. Why are you still so unsure of yourself now?"
It’s strange to have confidence, after being the king of bad movies for more than ten years.
Now this little bit of confidence is all given by you, Cage twitched the corner of his mouth, "I hope the box office will be good."
An Ran waved her hand, "Go away, you just make a good movie and use your acting skills. Do you need to worry about the box office?"
"Whether we lose money or not, we will never lose a penny to you!"
Look, this is the arrogance of the rich. Now that they have talked about this, what else do the two of them have to say?
The boss is the boss, as long as you like it.
While several people were talking, Huang Ling came in, "Boss, the matter is done, just wait and see!"
An Ran was slightly surprised, "Why? So fast?"
Huang Ling snorted, "That's natural. How can I be unhappy if I take action myself?"
An Ran nodded, "I haven't noticed yet. You have strong business skills, but are you so awkward at writing? You wrote it as I said, right?"
Huang Ling said: "Of course!"
"Just read it later. I have sent the article to those people. Soon everyone will make this article popular."
An Ran was very satisfied and said: "Not bad."
As for the article, he didn't need to read it. Since Huang Ling was confident, he didn't run away. He was still reassured by the seriousness of this person's work.
Releasing press releases is also a routine operation. Before major movies are released, there will be this kind of hype.
Nothing.
Huang Ling is very efficient in her work. An Ran has finished filming her afternoon movie, and the popularity on the Internet has begun to spread.
With the support of all the navy forces, everyone spared no effort to support this article.
Of course, the article has also been re-polished by other Internet experts. If you can't write the same thing and everyone writes it in the same way, and the words are all the same, it will be boring.
One look at it and you know this is all hype.
Although it’s not a big deal, it’s troublesome if netizens keep pace with it.
There are more than two dozen influential Internet experts who specialize in collecting money to publish articles. An Ran and Huang Ling have not come forward to do this.
Naturally, there are people taking care of it, just in case something happens, they, the senior officials, can put aside the relationship.
As long as nothing happens to the top management, anything can be said and explained.
An Ran turned on her phone, clicked on an article and started reading.
"Cage has acting skills? I laughed!"
Damn it, that idiot wrote this? Did you use this kind of title to blackmail Cage?
An Ran's face turned dark instantly.
I immediately clicked on it and took a look.
After looking at it for a while, his expression softened.
Not to mention, the title of this product is quite attractive.
The content is completely opposite. This person was obviously instructed by Huang Ling to set the rhythm.
"I'm actually looking forward to the new film "Face" starring Cage."
"You know, it has been twelve years since Cage! He has not appeared in a commercial blockbuster for twelve years! Of course, this is not a blockbuster for others, but it is definitely a blockbuster for Cage!"
""Face Changing" is a script written by An Ran, a talented person in the entertainment industry. As we all know, Mr. An Ran's script writing ability is first-rate, and the scripts coming out of his hands will never be bad."
"The estimated investment for this movie is 80 million, but it is said that an additional 40 million has been invested. 120 million is not a small investment in any genre!"
"Especially since this is a gunfight movie, the investment is relatively small, but to reach this point, I believe the production will be a perfect movie."
"Okay, now let's bring the topic back to Cage."
"Judging from the trailer, Cage shows the most handsome side since he started acting in movies. This is the handsomeness he has never seen in his more than 30 years of acting career!"
"Does anyone still dare to say that Cage is not handsome?"
"Of course, apart from being handsome, what a movie needs most is plot support."
"In terms of plot, even if it is a gunfight movie, I think Mr. An Ran's plot will not be bad, so I don't doubt the plot."
"But there is a question that has always made me curious."
"As you have seen in the trailer, Cage seems to be an arrogant and domineering bad guy!"
"But John Travolta, who has always played the villain, has a righteous and awe-inspiring image!"
