My Animation Era

  Chapter 199 Applause is not popular (seeking subscription)

  In online novels, there is a saying of "three golden chapters".

  The meaning of the so-called "three golden chapters" is very simple. The first three chapters must be "eye-catching", and there must not be too many characters on the stage, and the main character must be focused on.

   This will make the audience remember.

  Although there is no such thing as "golden three episodes" in animation works, the reason is the same. A few minutes before the opening, try to avoid too many characters on the scene.

   After all, there are too many people and the scene is chaotic.

  The audience has just entered the pit, and they may not even remember the "title". You introduce so many characters to him. Do you really regard every audience as a child prodigy with "photographic memory"?

  "Quiba" undoubtedly has flaws in its opening treatment.

  If Gu Miao were doing it, maybe the opening "narration" ended, and immediately switched to "Man Ji" and the scenes of daily life in Wowo Township, Man Xiaoman.

  Manji's identity?

  Why must it be revealed at the beginning? Wouldn't it be nice to expose bit by bit in the subsequent plot?

   Well, this is just a subjective opinion.

  As the saying goes, in the eyes of 10,000 people, there are 10,000 Hamlets. The way Gu Miao thinks it's good, doesn't mean that others think it's good too.

  The opening is just a small problem.

  The next step is to make the story interesting and attractive, and it doesn't matter what the beginning is. Anyway, what everyone is watching is a 90-minute movie, not a 3-minute trailer.

   But is 90 minutes really fun?

  Gu Miao dare not speak nonsense.

  From his point of view, so far, his movie-watching experience is not bad, but after watching the 90-minute movie, there is always a feeling of "more to say".

   "The story isn't over yet?"

   "No! The story is told very well, the director is very good, and I am really excited to watch it."

   "But he's too ambitious." Gu Miao pondered for a moment, and finally made a judgment, "Or 90 minutes is too short to fit so much content."

   The meaning is still unfinished.

   This is not only Gu Miao's after-viewing impression, but also the personal experience of many movie fans who also watched this movie and came here with anticipation.

   It was enjoyable to watch, but I always feel that this 90-minute movie is like... a semi-finished product. The director wanted to stuff more things into it, but the resulting effect is still unsatisfactory.

   "Could it be a trilogy?"

  While walking out of the theater, Gu Miao couldn't help but smile when she heard a fan's discussion next to her.

   Trilogy?

  This is too contemptuous.

  Feiyang animation, but under the banner of "five parts" to make the movie "Quiba"! How can a mere trilogy satisfy the ambitions of Little Bear and Director Hou?

  The plot of Ten Thousand Urgency is not complicated.

   It is nothing more than the fact that Man Ji, who was hit by Yuan Dian, survived the catastrophe and was adopted by Master Man of Wowo Township in the Beast Country, determined to become the greatest monster.

  In order to obtain the "Yaoxia Wenyao", which symbolizes success and glory, Manji practiced "pulse technique" assiduously, but it disturbed the chickens and dogs in Wowo Township.

  The conscription order to eliminate Kuiba spread to Wowo Township. In order to send these two scourges away, the village chief tricked Manji and his son into joining the army.

  However, in this world where "Wen Yao" is respected, it is very difficult for Master Man and Man Ji to stay in a hotel, not to mention joining the army.

  In order to gain honor, they decided to mix into the giant battleship that was about to set off to destroy Quebah-Qujing No. 1.

  Then, a huge Kuibamai beast suddenly appeared, devoured Manji, and attacked wantonly without reason. At the critical moment, Manji sealed his veins...

  The plot of "Quiba's One Hundred Thousand Urgencies" came to an abrupt end with the disappearance of the Kuiba pulse beast.

To be honest.

  Gu Miao said "the meaning is still unfinished" is already very polite, if you have to be serious, this is a semi-finished product.

  The story is not complete and there is too much white space.

   This certainly left the audience with deep suspense, looking forward to the next battle with Quiba, but is it really worth the ticket price?

   "Blanch!"

   Not everyone thinks that "Quiba: One Hundred Thousand Urgencies" satisfies all their fantasies about domestic animated films.

   Some people also think, what is this thing?

   Laozi watched a 90-minute movie, and you just showed me this? A few more minutes, will you die after telling the story of "Quiba"?

   So, they reacted violently.

   Swearing a few words is already the result of restraint. If it wasn't for the bad influence, someone might have seen half of it and left halfway.

   But it's not a big problem.

  According to the information obtained by Gu Miao, the first batch of viewers gave good reviews. Although they didn't like it very much, at least they didn't dislike it.

   This made the Cubs overjoyed.

  He felt that such a screening result was enough to make the theater agents change their minds, and increase the screening rate of "Quiba" when it was officially released.

  But unfortunately, he was too optimistic.

  Although the movie fans’ word-of-mouth is good, the box office performance of the movie is a bit far behind.

  354,400 yuan!

  This is the box office performance of the movie "Quiba: One Hundred Thousand Urgent Urgent" after it was screened on a small scale.

   It's really a dog shaking his head when he saw it.

  The attendance rate is even more appalling. Although this is also due to the scale of "point screenings", such a low attendance rate can already explain the problem.

"why?"

   Xiaoxiong always wondered: "Aren't the audience mostly positive reviews? I counted the bad reviews, and there seem to be not many!"

   "Is it good or not!"

   "What's more, there is really no one paying attention to the Quiba movie. How much do you expect to see at the box office?" Gu Miao said speechlessly.

   "That shouldn't be!"

  Little Xiong always frowned, thinking that Gu Miao's analysis was wrong, and it couldn't be the result of this reason.

  He deliberately went to investigate.

  The result was beyond everyone's expectations. On the one hand, it was because the movie "Quiba" was indeed not well-known, and not many fans were interested.

   On the other hand, the Cubs have wasted all their money.

   When the movie "Quiba" was announced and promoted, it focused on people over the age of 14, but when it was screened, it was precisely the 14-20 age group that had the least fans.

"why?"

   Cubs are always puzzled, why are 14-20 years old the least audience? Shouldn't it be the most? After all, when he announced the release, he focused on taking care of this group of people.

   "Don't think about it, they have no money."

  Gu Miao said speechlessly: "People aged 14-20, do you think the academic burden is heavy? Do you have time to go to the movies? And is there a lot of pocket money, can you spare a movie ticket?"

   "That...that's not..."

   Bear is always silent.

  Gu Miao knew what he was thinking, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted him softly: "So now you understand why the theaters don't like this movie, right?"

   Either target the market for children under the age of 14 and let these little kids pester their parents to watch movies, or focus on people over 20.

  14-20 years old can't go up or down.

  In the TV circle and online, these people are very combative, and it is really good to get their support.

   But at the cinema...

  14-20 years old is definitely the most embarrassing age group. Focusing on this group of people can only be said to be a waste of time.

   Anti-bar tips: Generally, there are more couples and family fans in movie theaters, and 14-20-year-old teenagers are indeed the least...
