My Animation Era

  Chapter 725 Big killer (for subscription)

  The fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival.

  The movie "Sheep's Eyebrows" was released for two weeks, and the cumulative total box office exceeded the 600 million mark. It also happened to be the Lantern Festival, so Gu Miao decided to hold the celebration banquet first.

  Originally, according to the idea of ​​Lao Zhang and others, they were going to wait for the box office to break one billion before holding a lively show.

  Can result...

  This year’s Spring Festival, perhaps due to the gathering of bad movies, the general market trend is not good, and the total box office of the movie "Sheep Elated" has no hope of breaking through one billion.

   Everyone was disappointed.

  Especially Ma Kui, with the release of the box office in the second week, his expression was as ugly as if his wife ran away.

  He is aggrieved!

   Anyway, it’s the Spring Festival, and the movie’s reputation is so good, but the market is so bad, it’s not even as good as last year’s summer vacation. Who would believe it?

   Fewer people watching movies!

  The collection of bad movies during the Spring Festival, as well as the abnormal variety show "Where is Grandpa", made everyone not want to go to the movies, and the market continued to shrink.

   But one yard returns to one yard.

  Although everyone was very disappointed and sad, feeling that "Sheep Elated" was dragged down by the works of the same period, but the box office has already recovered the production cost and made a lot of money.

  So the celebration banquet still needs to be held, not only must it be held, but it must also be held in a beautiful manner, and the film production team will be given corresponding commendations and rewards.

   This is showing off!

  Those big directors in the film industry are always badmouthing Wanbao, saying that Gu Miao doesn't understand movies, but what's the situation now?

  Wanbao relies on the snake of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" to operate, the three big movies of the zodiac, galloping horses, and elated sheep, have already smashed 3.5 billion box office.

at the same time.

   "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" has also become the highest-grossing animation IP series in the history of Guoman, not even one of them!

  In front of this dazzling report card, who would dare to badmouth Wanbao, saying that Gu Sanshui doesn't understand movies?

   "Good days are yet to come."

  At the celebration banquet, Gu Miao, who drank a few more glasses because she was happy, said proudly: "In my opinion, the zodiac series of Pleasant Goat is just the beginning, Wanbao's real killer weapon has not yet been sacrificed!"

   "Oh! Big killer?"

  Everyone was very surprised.

   The Zodiac series of the animation "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" is already considered a "unique" box office harvester in everyone's opinion.

  Even within Wanbao, there is no IP theater series that can match it.

  However, the "Pleasant Goat Zodiac" series of movies with such a high box office is just the beginning in the eyes of Mr. Gu. Does he still have a trump card?

   What is the killer feature?

  Someone thought of Du Hao, who was in close contact with lions in Africa and didn't even come back for Chinese New Year this year.

   "Could it be "The Lion King"?" Someone asked tentatively.

"no!"

  Gu Miao shook her head, denying this speculation: "Although "The Lion King" has great potential, it doesn't constitute a series, it can only be regarded as a one-off sale."

"series…"

   Thinking about the word Mr. Gu said, Huang Kun seemed to have guessed something, frowned and said, "Is it "Sailor Moon"? Or "Dragon Ball" by Nishio?"

   "I'm talking about the domestic market, what are you talking about the animations of the Neon Division?"

   "Domestic... that is "Detective Conan", "Pokemon" or "Yu-Gi-Oh?"

   "These three series are okay."

  Although Gu Miao was a little drunk, she still kept her head in a clear state. He only heard his analysis: "Conan, Pikachu, and Yu-Gi-Oh. These IPs will be made into theater versions. It's probably a great project, but the future is uncertain."

   "The big killer I'm talking about is a movie series that I'm sure can make money, the box office is not low, and it can be released once a year like the Pleasant Goat Zodiac series."

  Huang Kun frowned.

  He mentioned the names of several animation series in succession, but guessed them all wrong.

   Now he is a little confused, if even the IPs of "Yu-Gi-Oh" and "Pokemon" are not good enough, then what animation IP does Wanbao have that can meet the conditions Mr. Gu said?

   Couldn't be Pigman, right?

   Don't make trouble!

  Huang Kun has made several animations himself, including Pigman, Guobao Special Attack and Super Beast Armament. He knows in his heart that these works are not suitable for making big movies.

   "I can't figure it out..."

"Isn't this simple? I've hinted to you countless times!" Gu Miao rolled her eyes, as if she didn't expect that Huang Kun would not even be able to do this question. "What is the positioning of the project?"

   "Replacing Pleasant Goat...ah!"

  Huang Kun suddenly realized: "So it's "Bear Infested", I thought you were talking about "Happy Baby" without a follow-up!"

"How can it be!"

  Although "Happy Baby" can be regarded as the half-brother of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", not only has a similar positioning, but also "taught from the same school".

  But the height of "Happy Baby" is really not as good as "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", and its influence is also slightly inferior.

  This is still TV animation.

   If you compare it with the theatrical version, it is a complete pile of shit, completely blown away by the Zodiac series of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf".

  Only bears haunt...

Counting forward twenty years, apart from "non-series works" such as "The Devil Comes into the World", "The Return of the Great Sage" and "The Origin of the White Snake", in the field of domestic animation films, in fact, only "Bear Infested" has achieved a complete victory over Pleasant Goat. .

  The box office bear, the wall of masterpieces is not a vain name, they really have this strength!

  If the Zodiac series of Pleasant Goat is considered to be a ray of light in that dark age, people feel that "domestic animated films" can still be saved.

  The theatrical version of The Bears is standing on top of the live-action movies and shitting, and after the shit, they have to sneer: "Can you do it? Why can't you even beat an animated movie?"

   A veritable killer!

  Although "Bears Infested" has never appeared in the "ultimate blockbuster" works such as Nezha and The Return of the Great Sage, they are more stable.

  On average, hundreds of millions are earned every year, which seems inconspicuous, but it can be earned every time, and it can be squeezed into the forefront every year during the Spring Festival. Isn’t this a kind of abnormality?

   Actually tell the truth.

  The "Bear Infested" movie has developed to a late stage and has become a "golden signboard" for the Spring Festival. It doesn't matter whether you have watched TV animation or not.

  As long as it is the Spring Festival, as long as you see the animated movie with the prefix "Bear Infested", just buy a ticket to watch it.

   I dare not say how big a surprise it is, but at least it can make you laugh and let the children enjoy watching. I feel that this movie ticket is not a loss.

   This series is strong!

  If Gu Miao were to choose, one is the box office of a single work breaking 5 billion, and the other is "Bear Infested" with the total box office of the series breaking 5 billion, then he will definitely choose the latter.

   Don't even think about it.

  The box office is also 5 billion. The latter is properly operated and maintained. Maybe it can get another 5 billion. But the former is a one-shot deal. Can you guarantee that the sequel will still have this result?
