My Animation Era

  Chapter 378 Opponents in the Lunar New Year file (for subscription)

   Time came to December.

  With the addition of outsourcing teams such as Konjac Animation, the post-production progress of the movie "Snake Comes Around" is gratifying.

  Based on this premise, Gu Miao met with representatives of distributors and theaters in advance to discuss preparations for the premiere of the movie.

  During the communication, Gu Miao learned a fact that shocked him greatly.

   Publishers are better off.

  Mainly because of the theater companies, they are not optimistic about the box office prospects of "Snakes Are Running". They even think that this movie...

   Not as good as "Quiba"!

   "Mr. Gu, I didn't deliberately belittle your work, nor did I deliberately find fault with it."

  The representative of the theater chain said in a difficult way: "The fact is that the quality of your film is not as good as "Quiba: One Hundred Thousand Urgencies"."

   "It's a pity to even complete such a high-quality "Quiba", we really don't have confidence in you!"

  Although the words are ugly, they are the truth.

  The view of the theater chain is very simple. They don't know any art aesthetics, nor do they know any animation styles. They only know...

  Gu Miao's movie, just looking at it with the naked eye, the production cost is not as good as "Quiba", and the expressiveness of the screen is not as good as "Quiba".

   Here comes the problem.

   "Quiba" is of such high quality and has amazing screen performance, but the box office is a mess. Is a movie with lower quality than "Quiba" worthy of a high ranking rate?

   "You can't say that."

  Gu Miao patiently explained: ""Snake Comes Around" and "Quiba" are works of two styles, just like horror movies and romance movies, you can't compare them like this."

   On production costs, on the fineness of painting, on the completion of the script, on the integrity of the story, on the expressiveness of the screen...

  Pleasant Goat is not as good as "Quiba".

  But the two are not on the same track, so the comparison is not fair. The audience who watched the Pleasant Goat movie may not necessarily overlap with the audience of "Quiba".

  So, Gu Miao refused to accept it.

  He feels that the Pleasant Goat movie deserves a higher screening rate. This movie cannot be judged to be bad because of this "ridiculous" reason!

   Isn't this a riot?

  Revolving around the controversy over whether the Pleasant Goat movie is the next "Quiba", Gu Miao and the theaters started a heated debate.

   As for the outcome of the debate...

  I can only say that no one has convinced anyone.

  Theatrical companies have their considerations, and it is impossible to give up a movie with obvious potential because of Gu Miao's words.

   After all, at the end of the day...

  No matter how famous Gu Miao is, he is still in the animation industry. In the field of film, he is just a fledgling "new director".

   Newcomers should not try to "trample" the rules.

   Unless Gu Miao has already achieved a record and proved his box office appeal with his works, otherwise, it is unlikely that the theaters will give him a high rate of filming.

   "All right."

  After returning home, Jiang Keke, who learned the result of the negotiation, comforted him: "As a newcomer in the film industry, you didn't make a deal if you didn't make it. Why are you angry?"

   "No, you don't understand!"

   "Obviously Daxiong always promised me that he will help me fight for the filming, and the result..."

  Gu Miao spread her arms and said speechlessly, "You can also see that the cinema is not cooperating at all, can I not be angry?"

   "Actually, I know why."

  Jiang Keke took out the mobile phone from his pocket, fiddled with it and handed it to Gu Miao, "Look at this, can you understand the theater company?"

   "Actor Peng Ze..."

   "Small Steel Cannon's new film is finalized..."

   "This year's Lunar New Year is full of competition?"

   After reading the content of this news report, Gu Miao suddenly realized.

   It turned out to be the new film of actor Peng Ze, the new film of well-known director Xiaogangpao, and another overseas imported film, which were released together during the Lunar New Year.

   It's no wonder that the cinema company has such a firm attitude, and refuses to guarantee Gu Miao's film schedule no matter what, it turns out it's like this!

   "Damn!"

  Gu Miao put down her phone, frowned and said, "This year's Lunar New Year holiday, the competition is so fierce? How can there be so many problems?"

"yes!"

  Jiang Keke sat on the other side of the sofa and said: "Everyone says that this year's Lunar New Year is a fight between gods and gods!"

   It is impossible for gods to fight.

  Gu Miao shook her head, she didn't think these films were considered "fairies", at best they were "Old Monsters".

   But even so, more than three excellent works were released on the same schedule, which is something that was not available in the Lunar New Year file in previous years.

   I can only say that it is too unlucky.

  The film production almost came to a halt just after being poached, but after the film was finalized, it encountered such a cruel film competition.

  Gu Miao had the urge to scold her mother.

  But he thought about it again, when the original Pleasant Goat movie "Tiger and Tiger" was released, it seemed that he had bumped into a land fairy like "Avatar" head-on?

  In comparison, he was lucky to have only met such a few people.

no way!

  The schedule has already been set, and it is definitely too late to change it now, so Gu Miao can only use the example of "The Tiger's Might" to comfort herself.

  Don't panic, don't panic, the advantage is mine!

   Back when Cameron came with "Avatar", wasn't the scene much bigger than it is now? At that time, "Tiger and Tiger's Might" also smashed hundreds of millions of box office and dominated the box office!

   Whether the schedule is good or not, you can’t just look at the competitors, you have to look at the time...

   That's right!

  During the Spring Festival, it is the moment of "family reunion". A big family, old and young, all gathered together.

  At this moment, movies that focus on "festive and funny" like Pleasant Goat Movie are much more competitive than other movies.

  …

  Just as Gu Miao was staying at home, feeling a headache for her new year opponent, Du Hao welcomed his first child in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangchuan Medical University.

"congratulations!"

  When Gu Miao received the news, she almost thought that she heard it wrong, that she gave birth so soon?

  After some calculations, it was found that there was no problem, because Du Hao is a typical case of "get on the bus first and pay the fare later".

   What about the referee?

  Someone rushes away, blow the whistle!

  After learning that Du Hao's wife gave birth to a daughter, Gu Miao felt so sour in her heart that she didn't even want to receive the red envelopes from the company group.

  He is envious!

   No, I can’t watch it! Watching Du Hao show off in the group, he probably couldn't bear it.

  After quitting the group chat, Gu Miao decided to change her mood. Just as she clicked on Moments, the refreshed content on the homepage instantly stunned him.

  Mr. Xiong: "Welcome, my baby! From today, learn to be a good father! Come on! 【Picture】"

real or fake?

   Seeing the "inspection report" posted by Mr. Xiong, Gu Miao subconsciously rubbed her eyes, and then zoomed in to read it again.

result…

   It's actually true!

   Just today, Du Hao's wife gave birth, and Mr. Xiaoxiong's wife in the same hospital also found out that she was two weeks pregnant.

  Fack squid!

  Did these two people make an appointment to announce the news on the same day, deliberately provoking him, and wanting him to explode?

   I have something to go out during the day, so I changed it in advance
