RNP Chapter 708
Chapter 708
After the celebration dinner ended…
After returning to the office, Yang Mi, who was a little tipsy, discussed with Wang Xiaoyan about the international release of “The Wandering Earth”.
Generally speaking, after a movie is released in China, it is best to be released abroad in the shortest possible time.
The advantage of doing so is that it can reduce the chances of pirated films being spread in foreign markets and guarantee the box office revenue of the film.
On the day that “The Wandering Earth 2” was released in China, it was also released in North America at the same time.
However, different countries have different censorship systems and distribution strategies for films.
If you want to release it simultaneously, you need to coordinate with relevant foreign departments.
This is still more troublesome compared to China.
Two days later…
Just when Wang Xiaoyan was so busy every day that she was exhausted.
While busy running around for “The Wandering Earth” to be released in Western countries as soon as possible.
Her secretary Ruan Xiaoshu ran over with a tablet movie in her arms, looking anxious: “Sister Wang, our movie was stolen.”
After hearing the secretary’s hurried report, Wang Xiaoyan was completely stunned.
“What? Stolen?”
“Which one was stolen?”
“Sister Wang, it was “The Wandering Earth”!”
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaoyan’s delicate face was instantly covered with frost.
Today is the fourth day after the release of “The Wandering Earth”, and the box office has exceeded the 4 billion mark!
Because Su Mo is not short of money now, the production cost of the whole film is as high as 1.5 billion!
Compared with the production cost of 320 million in the previous life, it is five times more!
Therefore, whether it is special effects or pictures, “The Wandering Earth” allows the audience to experience what a shocking visual feast is!
It is precisely because of this that “The Wandering Earth” can be a mess in China as soon as it is broadcast!
While the positive reviews are overwhelming, the box office data is skyrocketing almost every minute!
According to this momentum, “The Wandering Earth” may really break through the 10 billion box office!
Breaking the 10 billion box office record in the history of Dragon Country movies!
But at this critical moment, someone dared to secretly shoot The Wandering Earth?
Wang Xiaoyan really couldn’t figure it out. Who was so ambitious that he dared to snatch food from the tiger’s mouth?
And what is the purpose of censorship, which can allow such unauthorized secretly filmed films to be released online?
…
“Sister Wang, look.”
“It’s this ‘Shelter’ Pictures, the company’s headquarters is in the United States.”
“On the same day that “The Wandering Earth” was released, “The Wandering Moon” was released in the United States.”
Secretary Ruan Xiaoshu slid his fingers on the iPad screen and kept reporting.
“Shelter Pictures?”
The moment he heard the name.
Wang Xiaoyan’s pretty face, which was originally covered with frost, suddenly showed an expression that was more disgusting than eating a fly.
In the United States, there is a company called Shelter Pictures.
They only make bad knockoff movies, and they specifically copy Hollywood and popular international blockbusters.
When others make Pacific Rim, they make Atlantic Rim.
When others make Transformers, they make Transformers.
When others make 10,000 BC, they make 100 million BC.
When others make Fast and Furious, they make Fast and Furious.
And what else… Sharknado, The Daredevil, The Hunger Games, Titanic 2, The Avengers.
In short, this Shelter company has long been notorious in the film and television industry.
In the more than 20 years since its establishment, it has copied almost all Hollywood blockbusters.
The most annoying thing is that no matter how others sue, they can’t win, and there is nothing they can do about it.
Because this company only relies on copycat names to take advantage of the popularity.
In terms of plot setting, it has nothing to do with the original work.
For example, the filming and production cycle of blockbuster themes such as “Pacific Rim” is particularly long.
Then “Shelter Pictures” will make a rough idea of what the movie will contain based on the name, type, introduction, promotional posters, etc.
First, think about what the movie will contain, and then fit the plot into it according to the guess.
As long as the elements of “Pacific”, “mecha” and “fighting aliens” are integrated, the script can be written in one night.
Then, a few extras are randomly picked from the street, and a few cheap college students are found to do some 50-cent special effects.
In just ten days, this copycat movie can be finished, which is faster than the small movies made in the island country.
Then
While the legitimate movies spend a lot of money and do extensive publicity.
This bad movie that specifically uses the name to copycat will make a lot of money by riding on the popularity of the feature film!
It will even be released a few days earlier than the feature film.
In this way, some viewers will buy tickets because they didn’t see the name clearly.
By the time they find out something is wrong, the money has already been spent and it is impossible to refund the tickets.
In this way, the Shelter Pictures’ production cost of only a few hundred thousand may be earned back on the same day.
It’s just hard for those viewers who were kept in the dark, and those who were innocently blamed and were criticized as bad movies before they were released.
After “The Wandering Moon” was released in the United States, it really fooled many foreigners.
They all regarded this movie as the real “The Wandering Earth”.
Those viewers who found out that they were deceived while watching the movie basically left the cinema cursing.
As I walked, I greeted the ancestors of Shelter Pictures.
But those foreigners who didn’t realize they were cheated until they finished watching the movie.
They all went to YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and other major foreign social platforms to criticize “The Wandering Earth”.
[Screw it! I promise, this is the worst movie I have ever seen in my life! ] IP: Beautiful Country
[Parents don’t agree to be together, so I eloped to the moon with my boyfriend? Oh! God! Is this a plot that carbon-based creatures can come up with? ] IP: Beautiful Country
[I went there for Su Mo’s reputation as a dragon countryman, but I didn’t expect him to make such a bad movie. It’s so disappointing! ] IP: Beautiful Country
[Poor special effects, ridiculous plot, how can such a movie be a big hit? The aesthetics of dragon countrymen is really puzzling! ] IP: Beautiful Country
[Wandering on the moon? NO! This should be called “Wandering Reason”! I have no idea what the director is thinking, it’s an insult to my IQ! 】IP: United States
As these comments fermented on the Internet, some foreign audiences who did not know the truth had a great misunderstanding of “The Wandering Earth”.
But there were also some foreign students and many audiences who knew they were fooled and stood up to explain and clarify.
[Those smart people who are cursing, please open your 14K titanium alloy dog eyes and see the name clearly before you come out to curse. ]
[This copycat movie is called: The Wandering Moon (Wandering Moon) The genuine movie is called: The Wandering Earth (Wandering Earth) is not a movie. ]
[You have been deceived by the bastard company “Shelter” again. The genuine “The Wandering Earth” has not yet been released in the United States]
