P.S. The ending of the previous chapter was slightly modified.
Aside
from Wolf Warrior, which was being filmed non-stop, in June, China's cinemas were in fear of Hollywood's dominance.
Five Hollywood blockbusters were released, and 70% of them were sci-fi blockbusters with big special effects, big stars, and big investments.
This month, the box office earnings of Chinese movies were 5.221 billion yuan, a substantial increase from May (3.887 billion yuan) and June last year (3.867 billion yuan).
The reason why they could achieve such a huge growth was mainly due to Hollywood's huge investment, special effects, and celebrity strategy. The box office exploded.
Well, in Li Yunfeng's opinion, the plot of these movies was very weak. The whole process relied on the stars to act cool and then play with special effects...(Just like Transformers 4 and 5.)）
What was logic? A good Hollywood movie didn't need logic. It just needed to explode!
However, even though the plot was very weak, there were still many Chinese fans who shouted,"Good, it's too good.""Wow, those special effects are simply too good.""Chinese movies can't catch up to them in 10 years.""Although the plot is a little bad, it's better than these lousy Chinese movies."
Douban, which automatically gave foreign films 1 points, gave them quite a good score.
Therefore, a Chinese director thought,"The special effects are actually more important than the plot. Look, even the lousy plot of Transformation 5 can get 1.1 billion. As long as we do the special effects and add in the localisation, we can definitely get more than 1.5 billion!”
Then, some companies began to gather big stars, big special effects, and the elements of China's Godhood and Journey to the West…They were preparing to make a blockbuster.
For example, a certain Hong Kong company was very powerful. With a shout, a group of Hong Kong stars stood up for it. They thought,"
We Hong Kong stars are all superstars, experienced actors, and have a lot of Best Actors and Best Actresses. We have countless fans in the mainland. If this project still fails, I'll live broadcast eating sh * t!"
He was full of confidence!
As for the results…he would only know in the future.
And in June, there were other movies from Han squeezing in.
Although most of the movies in Han were Mary Sue movies, there were still many good movies with great plots. It was just that they were not good at playing with technology.
In June, there were only three Mary Sue movies among the Han movies that entered the Chinese market. The Han people knew that Hollywood technology blockbusters were piling up in June. They would be courting death if they made any plot movies (mostly male audiences). They would not be as good as Mary Sue (mostly female audiences) movies. They would split the remaining market cake of Hollywood movies.
Therefore, the three Mary Sue movies in Han country, with handsome men, beautiful women, and a life and death love, each earned more than 100 million yuan at the box office.
Douban's rating was still based on the 1 rating for foreign films. The rating was not bad.
As for the domestic films in June, they were simply rubbish. All the directors who didn't even know how to tell stories were showing off their directing talents, resulting in a pile of bad films. These lousy films were comparable to Cult Master Huang's "Youth Rush." Oh right, this movie was made by Wu Baige, a Hollywood comeback. The producer even praised "Mountain Dew of Youth" as a movie full of joy and hope. No one had ever filmed a dragon boat before, which was very novel. Moreover, a traditional event like "dragon boat" was a big selling point internationally. More importantly, it could spread Chinese culture and promote sportsmanship internationally... and so on. However, after watching it, it was very embarrassing.
Douban, on the other hand, followed their rules and automatically gave a-1 point to domestic films.
Therefore, these domestic films were all trash in the eyes of Douban people.
There was limited space for domestic films in June. None of the films broke the 100 million mark.
Hollywood movies and Chinese movies could proudly look down on the Chinese film industry
.”
"Thank you for your help…"
Fortunately, June was over.
And in June, Li Yunfeng's Wolf Warrior was successfully shot at 60%. Unfortunately, in terms of publicity,"Wolf Warrior is awesome" was beaten up by "Dog abuse photos" and could not become a hot topic. Once again, he felt sorry for Li Yunfeng for one minute and mourned in silence.
In a flash, it was July, and the summer holidays had begun. This was the most active day for countless students, and also the season for box office sales.
Hollywood was destined to not be able to enjoy the summer vacation bonus, because the Chinese Film Protection Month had officially begun!
The National Film Bureau had considered the issue from the perspective of supporting domestic films. In 2004, it had verbally issued a notice to all cinemas in the country to support domestic films. During the period from June 10th to July 10th (or July to August) every year, the introduction of overseas blockbusters was not encouraged.
This period of time was known by the media and the industry as the "Chinese Film Protection Month."
The original intention of the protection month was to fulfill the share of the box office of domestic films every year.
The domestic product protection month was no longer a new secret, but it was not on the table. Not only did the officials not admit it, but they also publicly denied and clarified it. However, as long as one had a little common sense, they could see some clues from the screening.
Hollywood naturally cried until they fainted in the toilet, but there was nothing they could do. On the home ground of China, could it be that the people of the United States wanted to rebel?
Once the film protection month was out, the domestic film festival had arrived.
It was the summer break
. Hence, all the major movies began to be released. Regardless of whether they were good or bad, they all went up together. Perhaps they could pick up dead chickens and fight for a good box office.
Thus, the Year of Bad Movies 2017 appeared.
A bunch of bad movies appeared.
Actually, it was not much different from the domestic movies in June.
Blockbusters were still lousy movies. There were no lack of movies like 'Residence in Fuchun Mountains'.
Then, for the entire July, the box office sales dropped to 3 billion yuan, which was 2 billion yuan less than the previous month's non-domestic product protection month...
The country really wanted to curse.
"I set up a domestic protection system so that you can survive the slaughter of foreign movies and learn to be brave after experiencing shame…Now, twenty years have passed, and you're still trash! You haven't improved at all!"
In July, Li Yunfeng had completed 90% of Wolf Warrior.
At this moment, Li Yunfeng started to contact the theater chains to set up a schedule in advance.
