Rebirth of the Father of Anime

Chapter 209 Export to Domestic Sales

Universal Cinemas has strong strength and many directors under its umbrella, and can start shooting several movies at the same time.

Therefore, North American fans who like thrillers and horror movies full of excitement are happy.

For three months in a row, every month has surprises.

The first release was the remake of "The Grudge" by Universal Cinemas, and they were testing the waters for this one.

After all, there are huge differences in the tastes of the East and the West, especially in horror movies. The East likes a depressive psychological atmosphere, while the West prefers a stimulating visual experience.

But what they didn't expect was that "The Grudge" received rave reviews after it was released. Probably because I watched too much ketchup, I also think it's good for this kind of oriental horror that doesn't have many bloody scenes, but can be creepy.

Only the North American box office exceeded 200 million US dollars, which made Universal Cinemas immediately shake off its worries.

After "The Grudge", the low-budget horror film "Death Comes", which was changed from the comic "9999 Ways to Die a Porter", was released on Halloween.

Although in terms of popularity, "9999 Ways to Die a Porter" is not comparable to "The Grudge". But for this movie, Universal Cinemas is full of confidence, because they have adapted this movie completely according to the tastes of North American audiences, pursuing sensory stimulation as much as possible.

All kinds of exaggerated accidental deaths kept the audience's nerves highly tense. It has not only the usual urgent atmosphere of the East, but also the stimulating scenes of the West, which perfectly blends the horror and horror features of the East and the West.

Of course, this movie is not only in terms of word of mouth, but also in the box office. All achieved great success.

Universal Cinemas also immediately put the sequel of "Death Comes" on the agenda-they bought the copyright of "9999 Ways to Die a Porter". Do not try to squeeze its value. Isn't it a pity?

Moreover, if the author can really write enough 9999 ways to die, and they make one of the 9 ways to die, then they can make more than a thousand!

What a terrifying value this can create!

In the end, it was the highlight of Universal Cinemas that was released after the Christmas schedule. It was their best director, using the strongest team and equipment, and starring two best actresses and one actress. It cost nearly 200 million U.S. dollars in investment and was changed from "Jurassic Park" of He Chen's famous comic "Nobita's Dinosaur".

This is a Hollywood blockbuster that integrates science fiction, adventure and thriller.

It's about the government stealing Doraemon's props,

It was used to create a dinosaur park, but the story got out of control in the end... However, it is worth noting that from the beginning to the end, except for the name being mentioned once, Doraemon never even showed up.

The flaws in the plot make people unable to complain, but watching this kind of movie, who cares about the plot?

Watch it under Hollywood stunts. It seems to have traveled to the beauty of ancient times, as well as the realistic dinosaurs.

...

It may be because they are all adapted from Chinese works. The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, which was originally extremely strict in reviewing imported works, unexpectedly passed the three works of Universal Cinema very quickly.

A week after their release in North America, they will basically be released in China.

The North American version of "The Grudge" suffered from Waterloo, and the box office was dismal.

After all, I have already seen the most classic Chinese version of "The Grudge", and the audience is not interested in this remake, which has not changed much.

""The Grim Reaper" is so beautiful, it was all caused by accident, as if destined to be fate. As expected of Hollywood, only they can come up with such a classic idea!"

"...Is this person joking?"

"This Chiguoguo's hook should undoubtedly be for fishing."

"Damn! What kind of fish did you drop? Could it be that "Death is Coming" is not good-looking? The links are intertwined, and the sense of urgency to find vitality in various details has exploded all the suspenseful themes in China!"

"Not fishing?"

"That's no doubt an idiot!"

"Kids, read more books, you will find a different world."

"Hehe, a bunch of rubbish, you can't say that Huaxia is not good, right? How much money does the Huaxia Department send you? Fifty cents a post? A group of guys who only know how to enjoy themselves and don't pay attention to other people's excellence. There are people like you Support, it's no wonder that Huaxia Film has been unable to develop!"

"This insane chain hook, I feel uncomfortable if I don't bite it!"

"I'll bite, I'll bite!"

"You say that others are self-proclaimed, but I watched it for a long time and found that you are the only one who is self-proclaimed. If you simply say that the domestic film system is backward and the movies are not good, you may still get a lot of supporters. Praising Hollywood is no problem, because Hollywood movies are way ahead of us - and we're catching up a little bit. Reaper is a good movie. But you use the idea of ​​Reaper to get pissed off...you don't even watch the movie Introduction?"

""The God of Death is Coming" is adapted from Hua Xiaman's comic "9999 Ways to Die a Porter"."

"..."

Such interesting things can easily happen when exporting to domestic sales.

However, He Chen was more concerned about how the movie passed the review. After all, there is no grading system in China, and "9999 Ways to Die a Porter" has also undergone a harmonious transformation from "human" to "stickman". "Death is Coming" will not let all the leading actors in it become stickman, right?

Out of curiosity, He Chen went to watch this movie on purpose, and then he was blinded by the vast holy light with his kryptonite eyes.

The director of "Death is Coming" actually used He Chen's great holy light technique to evade review in the animation, and used it in the movie!

He Chen praised the director's attitude of humbly learning advanced technology.

But this effect...

The highlight of "Death is Coming" is all kinds of weird dead people's methods, and there are many shots. Although it was coded by the Holy Light, it passed the review.

But what is presented in front of the audience is a piece of white light at every key and exciting scene. Except for a few heroes who have reached the realm of "the eyes have the code, but the heart has no code", the whole theater is full of scolding voices.

Even by looking at the before and after content, one can guess what happened. But you can guess it, but you can't see it, it's like putting a naked woman in front of a satyr, but it's separated by a transparent tempered glass cover. Let the pervert see but not touch, itching unbearably.

A story is a good story, an idea is a good idea, and a movie is a good movie. But this bad behavior of fooling the audience in order to earn box office has brought huge negative comments to "Death is Coming" in China.

Although there are many negative reviews, it still has a box office. Compared with "Reaper", "Jurassic Park" not only has a very poor reputation, but even the box office is terrible.

"Jurassic Park" is a very classic movie no matter how you look at it. This kind of movie was supposed to sweep China, but it ended in a dismal end. Not to mention that Universal Cinemas didn't expect it, He Chen himself was surprised.

"Mom, "Nobita's Dinosaur" has been made into a live-action movie, I want to see it!" A pink and tender little loli coquettishly addressed the young mother.

As the school recommends comics, the mother often reads "Doraemon" with her daughter, and she even bought a complete set of "Doraemon" booklets for women.

When the long story of "Doraemon" "Nobita's Dinosaur" was adapted into an animated film, the mother and her daughter watched it together. It was very interesting, the children liked it, and the adults were greatly touched when they saw it.

For such a work full of educational significance, if the daughter wants to watch it, the mother will certainly not refuse.

The mother squatted down, gently pinched her daughter's fleshy little face, and said dotingly: "Okay, mom will take you to the movies this weekend!"

Looking at the promotional poster of the movie, it seems that the story is different from "Nobita's Dinosaur".

But the mother didn't care, and took her daughter to buy a large box of popcorn and juice, and then took the ticket and entered the movie theater.

There were a lot of people watching the movie on weekends, and many of them brought their children like her. They watched the movie for the name of the porter and "Nobita's Dinosaur".

I found a seat with my bouncing daughter, and after a while, the movie started.

This is a well-made 3D movie, with 3D glasses, you can experience the visual feast of Hollywood blockbusters.

"Mom, why hasn't Doraemon come out yet?"

After watching it for a short time, I found that the character I liked hadn't come out yet. The daughter took her mother's hand and asked.

The mother patted her daughter's hand gently: "Wait a minute, maybe it will come out in a while."

When the group of dinosaurs appeared, there were bursts of exclamations in the theater, and countless people were addicted to the magnificent scenery.

However, the goodness didn't last long, when the terrifying Tyrannosaurus rex suddenly appeared.

Suddenly, a large group of children's cries erupted in the theater.

Meow, for a child, that ugly and terrifying big head that suddenly appears in front of him will be a shadow for the rest of his life.

Parents hustled to coax their children, complaining about Hollywood.

"What Hollywood, if you don't know how to adapt, don't adapt the masterpiece of Porter! What kind of rubbish was filmed... Be good, daughter, don't cry, this movie is not good, we won't watch it!"

Countless people have made the same choice as their mothers—leave directly.

I directly classify "Jurassic Park" as a bad movie in my heart.

So the bad reviews of "Jurassic Park" were brushed out like this.

According to word of mouth, "Jurassic Park" has become a fan villain, and countless people have stepped on it regardless of whether they have seen it or not.

With such an evaluation, the box office of "Jurassic Park" can be imagined. It was hastily withdrawn after three weeks of screening.

This has not only become the dark history of "Jurassic Park" - the North American box office is 800 million US dollars, the global box office is 1.3 billion US dollars, but in China it only has a box office of 10 million Huaxia dollars. This created a Hollywood record-becoming the only Hollywood blockbuster film that lost money in China.

And this has also become a black history of Universal Cinemas-if they just promoted it in a normal way, and didn't use the fame of "Nobita's Dinosaur", maybe it wouldn't be the case.

If Huaxia had a grading system, maybe it wouldn't be the case. (To be continued..)
