So why are there stars?

Again, you can't make the giant feel threatened.

However, the stars are different, and the stars will not snatch the biggest cake from the Hollywood giants.

The stars are targeting Huaguo movies. For Hollywood film giants, the benefits involved in Huaguo movies are actually not that great.

On the contrary, they have long coveted the Huaguo market.

But now Huaguo's movie market is getting more and more prosperous and bigger, to the extent that Hollywood giants dare not ignore it.

If the stars did not rely on the giants of Huaguo and Huaying, then it would be difficult to have the soil to survive, especially Ari. To be honest, Wang Yifan is not optimistic about Ari at all.

Because if Ahri really wants to have a complete distribution channel in North America, then what they will face is the full siege of Hollywood media giants.

Because that really touched their cake.

But the stars are different. The stars are backed by the biggest power of Huaguo's movies. As long as the Hollywood media giants still want to get a piece of the Huaguo movie market, then they will definitely not hurt their bottom line. , to take non-commercial competition methods against the stars.

Because, you can do this, and the film and television giants of Huaguo behind the same stars can also do the same.

Therefore, it is nothing more than profit.

And the stars are only doing Huaguo movies, and they are only doing channels outside the cinema chain, so this is still within the acceptable range of several major media giants.

But for Huaguo Film Company, the stars are not so insignificant.

You know, most of the early Huaguo movies could only be sold to Hollywood companies, and why would Hollywood film companies be willing to buy it, even if sometimes it seems that the box office will lose money, it is because it is still profitable, because they It can be through offline channels, such as directly launching the DVD version.

And these, film companies in Huaguo, are usually almost impossible to obtain.

But with Zhongxing, it will be different. When the time comes to sell the copyright, it will only sell the distribution rights of theaters. The offline aspect can be completely handed over to Zhongxing. Maybe it may not be able to obtain higher profits, but at least in the long run. , but it is worth looking forward to.

And if "The Truman Show" is successful, then the stars can open the channel faster and start to make the channel work faster.

Instead of just making small troubles and barely maintaining operations like it is now.

"The Truman Show" quickly started a week-long screening tour in North America.

First of all, it is naturally a special session for the media and film critics.

Holding a special event for the media and film critics will cost millions of public relations costs, to say the least.

Yes, it is that outrageous, and it's still a good knife.

Of course, it mainly depends on the scale. If there are only some unknown film critics, then there may not be so many.

However, it is clear that the Mina Group is quite confident in "The Truman Show", so this time, for the film critics and media session, all the well-known film critics and big media in North America will be invited.

Although it may cost millions of dollars in public relations expenses, they are confident that "The Truman Show" will not disappoint them.

Similarly, "The Truman Show" has also launched small-scale screenings in many regions in North America.

Most of them are communities where Chinese people gather. After all, "The Truman Show" is still a Chinese movie, which naturally has greater appeal to Chinese people.

But this time the screenings are not limited to places where the Chinese gather, and also have small-scale screenings in theaters in some white and even black communities.

Wang Yifan was fine, but Chen Hang was restless.

Like a prisoner awaiting trial.

No way, he didn't have much expectation earlier, so he wasn't that nervous.

But with the scene at the screening, he began to have higher expectations for "The Truman Show", so he naturally hoped that the film would have a good response in North America.

The so-called concern is chaos.

Although the film critics and media screenings have long since ended, although the media and film critics at the scene gave relatively good evaluations.

But after all, who knows if it's because of the people at the scene.

Therefore, the specifics still depend on film reviews and media reports, as well as the results of the first-day screenings that will be announced next!

The data is sent quickly.

"How is it?" Chen Hang immediately walked over and asked.

Wang Yifan smiled and handed the phone to Chen Hang and said, "Look for yourself!"

Chen Hang glanced at it, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

On the first day of screening, there are only 100 theaters. This scale is not large, but it is not small either.

Chen Hang knew this, because it was not the first time he had come to North America.

Screening scale on the first day: 100 theaters.

The average attendance rate is 32%!

Box office: 920,000!

This number can be said to have greatly exceeded Chen Hang's expectations.

Don't look at this figure as if it is not very conspicuous, but in fact, this performance is already very good for a little-known Chinese film.

The box office of a single hall is close to US$10,000.

The key is that the attendance rate actually exceeded 30%.

You must know that "The Truman Show" is first of all a Chinese film, and secondly, "The Truman Show" does not have any familiar stars, but all Chinese classes.

Again, the pre-publicity of "The Truman Show" can be said to be very little.

Then look at such point-and-shoot data, which is quite exaggerated.

Then, there is an offline questionnaire survey.

Yes, this is the practice in North America.

It can be said that the offline questionnaire survey during the screening period can give the movie the most intuitive fan reaction to a certain extent.

In the 1000 offline questionnaires, more than 20% of the audience scored A+.

Over 10 viewers scored an A and 12% scored an A-.

35% of the audience gave a B+ rating!

Only less than 10% of the audience gave a rating below B!

This is the average rating for offline surveys.

Is this rating high?

Very high, very high, especially for a Chinese film, it's unbelievable.

You must know that the highest evaluation is A+!

It is the audience who has a very high recognition of the movie that will give this highest score.

Surprisingly, both white and black audiences rated the film generally highly.

This is an exaggeration.

In fact, Wang Yifan was not surprised by this.

First of all, white audiences, because the theme of "The Truman Show" is actually very American.

free! Yes, the theme of this movie, to some extent, can be said to hit the core values ​​of Laomei!

As for the black audience, it is easier to understand. Old blacks have always had persecution paranoia, and what happened to Truman can even be said to make them feel empathetic.

Even to this point, their reaction is more sensitive than that of many whites or Chinese!
