My movie scared the global audience to tears

"Go to Neon Province to investigate the pollution discharge situation of Neon Pharmaceutical?"

After Xiao Yang figured out what Song Qi arranged for him to do, he was a little confused for a moment: "Boss, are you planning to go to Neon Province to shoot a movie?"

"Don't ask so many questions, just finish what I told you."

Song Qi warned: "Before you go, go to the Finance Department to pay 100,000 yuan for business expenses. I'll give you a week. Is that enough?"

"Enough! It must be enough."

When Xiao Yang heard that he could go on a business trip at public expense, he immediately had no objection.

"Right."

Song Qi suddenly thought of something and warned: "After we go, it's best not to eat seafood."

Xiao Yang was stunned for a moment, then thought of what he said about the pharmaceutical factory's sewage discharge, and immediately understood what he meant: "Okay, I understand, thank you boss."

"Go for it!"

Song Qi waved his hand and sent Xiao Yang out, feeling much better immediately.

Although this matter really had nothing to do with him, after seeing the unbearable photos in the article, he really couldn't turn a blind eye.

Although he attaches great importance to the box office performance of movies and is very good at using movies to make money, he always believes that filmmakers must also have a sense of social responsibility.

The public often believes that the power of the media is mainly reflected in the public opinion supervision effect of the news media, but movies are also an information transmission channel for the media and also have strong social influence.

Many times, a good movie can also cause society and people to reflect.

For example, "I'm Not the God of Medicine" in the original space caused a strong social response after its release, causing a large number of people to start paying attention to specific drugs for terminal illnesses, and also attracted great attention from the national medical insurance department.

"Dear" also brought the sharp topic of GM women and children back into people's sight.

The South Korean film "The Melting Pot" directly promoted the birth of the "X Infringement Prevention Act".

These are all examples of the impact that movies have on society, and the creators of these movies have also shouldered the social responsibility that a public figure should bear.

Song Qi asked himself that he was not a good person, but if there were capitalists who were really killing people in broad daylight, he would not turn a blind eye.

After looking at the script on the table, Song Qi casually stuffed it into the drawer.

Even if he wanted to make a movie that reflected reality, he would not use Masao Nome's script.

The direction of this script is too obvious, and the story is exactly the same as "Resident Evil". It is too clichéd, and even if it is filmed, the box office will not be high.

If you want to arouse widespread discussion, it is definitely not possible to rely on a skin-changing movie.

But it's still too early to think about this now. Xiao Yang will have to go and investigate and come back to know what the specific situation is in Neon Province.

Song Qi is still very satisfied with Xiao Yang as his assistant.

Although he is young, Xiao Yang is still very careful and considerate in his work.

After receiving Song Qi's assignment, Xiao Yang did not leave immediately. Instead, he handed over Song Qi's work arrangements for the past week to his colleagues. After completing the handover, he brought his colleagues to report to Song Qi before leaving.

leave.

It's already mid-September, and despite the raging autumn tiger, the weather is still a little hot.

"Mr. Zombie" has been in theaters for half a month, but its daily box office revenue is still over RMB 100 million.

In just half a month, the total box office of "Mr. Zombie" exceeded 8 billion.

If we look at the current box office growth rate, it is only a matter of time before the total movie box office exceeds 10 billion.

In a small period like the Zhongyuan Festival, the emergence of a movie with a box office of tens of billions is enough to subvert the three views.

More importantly, the movie's reputation is overwhelming!

On Doujia.com, the movie's rating is still as high as 9.0, with millions of viewers giving it five stars.

Even many senior fans of traditional horror movies have given it five-star praise.

You know, these audiences can be said to be the most unpleasant group of people among all audiences.

They grew up watching traditional horror movies and are already familiar with various routines. If they don't come up with something new, they will definitely be criticized by them.

But if it is too innovative and loses the taste of traditional horror movies, they will still complain.

And this "Mr. Zombie" can be said to have accurately hit their sweet spot.

The model of the movie is novel enough, it is a traditional theme, and it also combines elements of comedy and action. It is so exciting that they enjoyed watching it, so they all gave it high scores.

They generally believe that this is the best-looking movie among all Song Qi's works, and also the best-looking movie in the entire horror movie category in the past 30 years.

This evaluation is quite high, because thirty years ago was the most glorious period of horror movies. During that time, traditional horror movies were very popular and were the most popular movie genre at that time.

The fact that the audience is willing to put "Mr. Zombie" in that time period to evaluate it is essentially a high recognition of the movie.

However, it is not luck that the movie has gained such a good reputation.

People tend to be closer to things they are familiar with, and cultural attributes also determine that many people's preferences will tend to be unified in the general direction.

The popularity of "Snake God Apep" in the country of Afei has proved this point.

Most of the box office of that movie was contributed by the citizens of the country of Afi. The movie showed a culture that most of the people of the country are familiar with, so it naturally won their recognition.

Familiar cultural content will make it easier for the audience to get involved in the play, win the audience's recognition, and thus make the audience pay.

Among all movie genres in Daxia, historical themes are the most popular, and for the same reason.

While "Mr. Zombie" received overwhelming reviews, other horror movies released at the same time were basically eclipsed like fireflies under the moon.

The only one that can compete with it, "The Cat with Nine Lives", was defeated as early as the first day, and now it has not even exceeded one billion in box office, and has been reduced to cannon fodder.

It is said that You Bin borrowed a lot of money to promote the movie.

But looking at this wave, it seems that they are basically thrown into the water.

Not only that, on September 18th, Fang Long also posted a Weibo, angrily scolding You Bin for going back on his word, refusing to pay the promised salary, and staged a wave of Weibo to ask for salary.

Although he deleted the Weibo post quickly, it also caused a wave of discussion and attracted many melon-eating people to go there to eat melon, including @松奇 who came to watch the fun.

However, Song Qi is not interested in this kind of dog-eat-dog thing. He focuses on the business of offline escape room stores.

"Mr. Zombie" is also a theme that can be placed in offline escape room stores, and it is extremely suitable for the operation of small stores.

Because its story background is not as big as "Resident Evil", it only requires a few fixed scenes, and the atmosphere is not worse than "Resident Evil" at all, or even better.

Many registered franchisees of escape room stores have developed a strong interest in this topic and want to learn more.

Just when Song Qi was busy planning to adapt the story content of "Mr. Zombie" with the secret room team into a book suitable for escape rooms, a piece of bad news came.

Xiao Yang, who went to Neon Province to investigate the pollution discharged by Neon Pharmaceutical, was arrested by the local police.
