Chapter 725 Big Killer (Please Subscribe)

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

It had been two weeks since the movie "Sheep Eyes Breathing" was released, and its cumulative box office exceeded the 600 million mark. It happened to be the Lantern Festival, so Gu Miao decided to hold the celebration party first.

Originally, according to the idea of ​​Lao Zhang and others, they were planning to wait for the box office to exceed 1 billion before hosting a lively show.

But the result...

This year's Spring Festival, perhaps due to the large number of bad movies, the market trend is not good, and the total box office of the movie "Sheep Eyebrows Breathing" has no hope of exceeding one billion.

Everyone was disappointed.

Especially Ma Kui, as the second week's box office results were released, his expression was as ugly as if his wife had run away.

He is frustrated!

After all, it's the Spring Festival, and the movie's reputation is so good, but the market performance is so bad, even worse than last year's summer vacation. Who dares to believe this?

There are fewer people watching movies!

There are a lot of bad movies during the Spring Festival, and there are also variety shows like "Where's Grandpa?", which makes everyone not want to go to the movies, and the market continues to shrink.

But one code equals another.

Although everyone was very disappointed and felt that "Sheep Eyebrows" were dragged down by other works of the same period, the box office was able to recover the production costs and make a lot of money.

Therefore, the celebration banquet still needs to be held. Not only must it be held, but it must also be held in a grand manner, and the film production team must be given corresponding commendations and rewards.

This is also showing off!

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

Wanbao relies on the snake of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" to operate, galloping horses, and exhaling with sheep's brows. The three zodiac movies have already grossed 3.5 billion in box office.

at the same time.

"Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" has also become the highest-grossing animated IP series in the history of Chinese comics, not even the first one!

In the face of this dazzling report card, who dares to badmouth Wanbao and say that Gu Sanshui doesn't understand movies?

"Better days are yet to come."

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

"Oh! Big killer?"

Everyone was very surprised.

In everyone's opinion, the zodiac series of animated "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" movies are already regarded as the "unique" box office harvester.

Even within Wanbao, there is no IP theatrical series that can compete with it.

But the "Pleasant Goat Zodiac" series of movies, which are so powerful and have such a high box office, is just the beginning in Mr. Gu's eyes. Does he still have a trump card?

What exactly is the trump card?

Some people thought of Du Hao, who was having a close encounter with lions in Africa and didn't even come back for this year's New Year.

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

"no!"

Gu Miao shook her head and denied the speculation: "Although "The Lion King" has great potential, it does not constitute a series and can only be regarded as a one-time deal."

"series……"

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

"I'm talking about the domestic market. Why are you talking about those cartoons from the Neon Division?"

"Domestic...that's "Detective Conan", "Pokémon" or "Yu-Gi-Oh"?"

"These three series are okay."

Although Gu Miao was a little drunk, his mind was still sober. He only heard his analysis: "It is probably a great project to make theatrical versions of IPs such as Conan, Pikachu and Yu-Gi-Oh, but the future is uncertain."

"The big killer I'm talking about is a movie series that I'm sure can make money, have a good box office, and be able to release one movie series a year like the Pleasant Goat Zodiac series."

Huang Kun frowned.

He named several animated series in succession, but he guessed them all wrong.

Now he is a little confused. If IPs such as "Yu-Gi-Oh!" and "Pokémon" are not good, then what other animated IPs in Wanbao can meet the conditions mentioned by Mr. Gu?

Couldn't it be Pig Man?

Stop making trouble!

Huang Kun has made several animations himself, including Pig Man, Fruity Attack and Super Beast Arms, and he knows that these works are not suitable for making big movies.

"I can't think of it..."

"Isn't this simple? I've given you hints countless times!" Gu Miao rolled her eyes, as if she didn't expect that Huang Kun couldn't even do this scoring question, "If you think about it again, I'll give "The Haunting of Bears" 》What is the positioning of the project?”

"Taking over from Pleasant Goat...ah!"

Huang Kun suddenly realized: "It turns out to be "Bear Bears". I thought you were talking about "Happy Baby" which has no follow-up!"

"How can it be!"

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

However, the height of "Happy Baby" is really not as outstanding as "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", and its influence is also slightly lower.

This is still a TV animation.

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

Only bears are around...

Twenty years ago, apart from "non-series" works such as "The Devil Boy Comes to the World", "The Return of the Great Sage" and "The Origin of the White Snake", in the field of domestic animated films, only "The Bear" has completely defeated Pleasant Goat. .

The box-office bear and the wall of masterpieces are not just for nothing, they really have this ability!

If Pleasant Goat's Zodiac series can be said to have given people a glimmer of light in that dark age, it felt like "domestic animated films" could still be saved.

In the theatrical version of the Bears series, you stand on top of a bunch of live-action movies and poop, and after you poop, you have to taunt: "Are you okay? How come you can't even beat an animated movie?"

A veritable killer!

Although there have never been "ultimate hits" such as Nezha and The Return of the Great Sage in the previous theatrical versions of "Bear Bears", they are better at being stable.

On average, hundreds of millions are made every year, which seems inconspicuous, but you can make it every time, and you can be among the top during the Spring Festival every year. Isn't this a perversion?

Actually tell the truth.

The "Bear Bears" movie has reached its later stages of development and has become the "golden signature" of the Spring Festival. Whether or not you have watched the TV animation is no longer important.

As long as it's the Spring Festival, as long as you see an animated movie with the prefix "Bear Bears", just buy a ticket to watch it.

I can’t say how big of a surprise it will be, but at least it’s guaranteed to make you laugh and make the kids happy. I feel like this movie ticket was well worth the money.

This series is strong!

If Gu Miao were asked to choose between a single film with a box office of over 5 billion and a series with a total box office of over 5 billion, "Bear Bears", he would definitely choose the latter.

No need to think about it.

The same box office is 5 billion. If the latter is properly operated and maintained, it may be able to earn another 5 billion. But the former is a one-time deal. Can you guarantee that the sequel will have such results?
