China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 177 No heroes at the time

The 2015 Spring Festival is a peaceful, pleasant and lively Spring Festival.

The 2015 Spring Festival period made movie fans not only upset but also upset.

As of the end of February, the total box office of the Spring Festival reached 2.5 billion, an increase of 33% year-on-year in 2014. However, there were no movies with a box office of one billion plus level, and the average quality of the movies has basically declined so much - among the seven movies released on the first day of the Lunar New Year, none of them exceeded 6 points, and the average score was even less than 5 points.

Not only did the film critics who did not collect money lament and criticize the cinema for becoming a place where any garbage could come in, but two of the seven movies during the Spring Festival were variety shows.

Even many directors have posted online, criticizing this phenomenon of eating too ugly.

[It is hard to imagine that when you think you have arrived at the last floor, you are shocked to find that there are stairs below. The Spring Festival is a time for family fun, and the audience gets money from the family. Every time I just have hope for domestic movies, this hope will be thrown to the ground again. I can't see any sincerity to the audience from the creators behind these movies. It seems that DreamWorks is the only conscience in the industry.

I never expected that "Source Code" was actually excluded from the Spring Festival period by these monsters and monsters. I can only comment on one sentence: No heroes make the prince famous!]

Shen Weiming blew the Enter button hard and vented his resentment towards the Spring Festival movie in the movie box office poster. Of course, he also gained the recognition of bar friends as he wished. After browsing the poster and gaining common value recognition, he returned to Chen Jingxing Poster, copying the link to the trailer of the "Source Code" into the post and putting the entire bar on the top.

Li Weiming is not only a movie lover, but also the owner of Chen Jingxing's post bar. Although he is not the creator of Chen Jingxing's post bar, he is also an old man who has entered the bar from Comet. At that time, he was amazed by "Comet" and became a little interested in the director. In a few months, "Fatal Identity" made him completely a fan of Chen Jingxing.

He also witnessed the number of followers of Chen Jingxing Bar with his own eyes, from hundreds to more than 60,000 people at present - this number is much more extraordinary for the director behind the scenes.

DreamWorks is like it popping out of a stone this time, and it took 550 million yuan at one time, which is too courageous in everyone's opinion.

[Damn it, I feel like I watched the trailer of "Signal" for the first time at that time]

[I looked at the trailer three times carefully. There were two scenes of Hu Ge waking up on the train, but his expression was different. I felt that he woke up on the train more than once. I boldly guessed that "Source Code" might be a game. If you think about the name of the source code carefully, is it very game-like? Hu Ge is a player, and he starts the game with the same character every time]

[This is a good idea on the upper floor, this post may become popular, so leave your name first]

[I am a top student in mathematics, and I can easily get science fiction creativity. I would like to call Chen Jing the number one director with high concepts]

[I watched the scenes in the trailer all on the high-speed rail. Does this movie happen on the high-speed rail? I feel that the scene is a bit narrow]

This round of financing was so fast that most people didn't react. Everyone knows that Station C is going to do the fourth round of financing, but the progress has been stuck in the tug of war. I have never heard of the intention of round D financing among investors. However, it is said in the market that Penguin Group intends to participate in Station C's Series D financing.

[No, I watched the text interview that Director Chen accepted and said that the science fiction setting of "Source Code" is different from the previous movies]

[Absolutely, look at the movies made by Chen Jingxing, none of them have the same science fiction concepts]

DreamWorks invested 550 million yuan, accounting for 25% of the shares of Station C, becoming the largest shareholder of Station C.

The peers in the film industry can only once again sigh at Chen Jingxing's madness. This young man is not afraid of at all. Whether it is filming "Gravity" or investing, they are directly hitting the thunder point that everyone is optimistic about.

[Leave a name]

[There are also explosions... If the high-speed rail explosion is over, can this be reviewed?]

[Didn’t it mean that DreamWorks has defected to Guoying? With Qin Zhong and this big guy, the background is very strong]

After all, all video platforms now survive on film and television works. C Station is inherently deficient in copyright. Even if you spend money to compete, you will definitely not be able to compete for several other platforms. It is a future that is uncertain. After all, before the rise of short video platforms, no one could have thought that there was another way to play.

[That's hard, can someone be squeezed out of the Spring Festival? Look at what kind of monsters and monsters are there this year's Spring Festival. If "Source Code" is here, it will definitely create a box office miracle]

[I think the announcement posted by DreamWorks official Weibo does not mean that post-production is lagging behind and cannot catch up with the Spring Festival?]

[Can you believe this kind of scene?]

After reading the comments with satisfaction, Li Weiming withdrew from the top post and was suddenly attracted by several new posts.

After just a few minutes, Chen Jingxing, who was not active, came alive because of the top "Source Code" trailer.

"Big news! Dreamworks has become the major shareholder of Station C! Can you watch Director Chen's movies on Station C in the future?"

"Dreamworks entered the C station! "Comet", "Fatal Identity" and "Signal" may be back to the C station! "Fatal Identity" and "Signal" were uploaded on the C station, and accumulated tens of thousands of barrages. Later, they were deleted. I don't know if they can be retrieved."

Another news later attracted the attention of many netizens and even shocked the industry.

[Why is Hu Ge seeing another different face in the mirror? The suspense is so strong]

[Remind me of "The Fatal Identity", it won't be a split personality or something?]

[That's interesting. Isn't this what Chen Jingxing is best at? I'm so looking forward to the plot that makes you overwhelmed in a small space. "Signal" is also very good, but I still prefer to watch brain-burning movies like "Comet" and "Fatal Identity". Thanks to Director Chen for hearing my voice]

After the New Year, DreamWorks immediately released the first version of the "Source Code" trailer, attracting the attention of movie fans who have suffered from bad movies during the Spring Festival.

China's largest barrage website, Station C, suddenly announced that it had completed its Series D financing.

This round of financing was led by the film and television industry star DreamWorks, followed by Fantasy and Zhengxin Innovation Capital, with a scale of 650 million yuan.

However, compared with the embarrassing treatment of C station in the industry, many netizens on the Internet have an extraordinary heated discussion and reaction to this news.

Especially among young netizens, the presence of Station C is far beyond his valuation. Most users of Station C are warmly welcomed by DreamWorks and Station C.

DreamWorks did not disappoint their expectations. "Fatal Identity" and "Signal" were soon on the homepage of Station C - "Comet" is the exclusive copyright of Fantasy World.com - but it only costs 5 yuan to watch. Station C does not currently have a paid membership system.

DreamWorks can directly draw a commission of 4 yuan from 5 yuan. The reason why we can negotiate such a high share ratio is because Station C is still in the process of enlarging registered members and increasing monthly active users. They do not expect to make money through film and television works. DreamWorks is willing to put film and television works on Station C's platform, which will benefit Station C.
