Chapter 438 Rapid Advance
The sequel to a popular work is considered by the industry to be like picking up money with your eyes closed, and it will definitely make a lot of money.
However, Su Zhe's quality is top-notch, he has not fooled his fans, and his reputation is still high.
This completely detonated the Spring Festival stalls.
When Liu Zihan walked out of the cinema, she and her best friend were chatting about the final twist, and couldn't help but suggest:
"Let's watch it again! I was a few minutes late and didn't see the beginning."
My best friend shrugged:
"Okay, I won't drink milk tea today."
The two of them had limited pocket money, so if they wanted to make a second purchase, they had to squeeze in from other places.
But the two of them checked and found that today's show was completely sold out and there were no tickets left.
Liu Zihan was a little disappointed, but also felt extremely proud:
"As expected of Uncle Su!"
At this moment, she heard a girl crying next to her:
"It's all your fault! I told you to buy tickets in advance, why didn't you? You can't see it now!"
The two of them turned around and saw that the girl's boyfriend looked embarrassed and said carefully:
"Last year it was so popular and there were all empty seats. I didn't expect this year... my fault. Can you wait and see tomorrow? I'll just... sell them out tomorrow? The day after tomorrow! The day after tomorrow!"
"The day after tomorrow, I will be spoiled! I hate you!"
His girlfriend got so angry that she ran away.
Liu Zihan and her best friend looked at each other, laughed together, and muttered:
"There are still people who underestimate Uncle Su's box office appeal?"
"When we booked tickets in advance, we broke the record. There are so many fans of Sugar Cane and Tang Tan, and movie tickets are as hard to get as concert tickets."
"When will Uncle Su hold a concert? If it happens next year, he will be in college. I really want to go to it."
"Let's go together!"
Two little girls hugged each other.
Beside them, the audience who had left the venue were still discussing the plot.
In addition to the case, what everyone is most concerned about is the Easter egg at the end.
In the ending Easter egg of "Tang Detective 2", although Tang Ren did not receive the bonus (Uncle Qi died early), Qin Feng's work was not in vain and improved his detective ranking——
From an unknown person with 100+, he quickly rose to around 50, and has surpassed the national football rankings.
This sense of upgrade can hit the hearts of the audience. As long as Qin Feng continues to solve cases and improve his ranking, they can't help but watch.
The easter egg also previewed the third part - Qin Feng and Tang Ren came to Tokyo and began to solve the mysterious and terrifying revenge case of the scorched corpse!
The famous high school detective Kudo Shinichi, whose name only appeared in the second part, will also fight side by side with the two in this part.
"Tokyo, "Tang Detective" is really a big deal, making movies all over the world."
"This is called top IP!"
"I feel like the famous detectives who appeared all have their own stories. Kogoro is very funny, just like Tang Ren."
"But Kogoro is ranked very high, among the top ten in the world. He has solved countless major cases in Japan, and his hidden strength should not be underestimated."
"Hey, Su Zhe just made up a few detectives. Do you still take it seriously? Can he still write about the cases of these detectives?"
"Yeah, they're just background characters."
They have never seen "Detective Conan", and based on the content of the movie, they think Kogoro is a bit unreliable, and Conan's way of fighting with a kickball is also childish.
——Anime characters are always a little acclimated when translated into reality.
But after all, it was just a supporting role, and no one cared too much about it.
Some "small flaws" cannot stop the general trend of "Tang Detective 2".
It continues to refresh the record set by "Tang Detective 1" with a more violent attitude than last year.
The box office on the first day was 1.2 billion, setting a first-day and single-day box office record for Chinese movies.
If you look at the total box office——
It exceeded 1 billion on the first day, which was shortened by 1 day.
It exceeded 2 billion the next day, shortening one day.
On the third day, it exceeded 3 billion, which was still shortened by 1 day.
The entire Internet was stunned by the violent box office - even a money printing machine couldn't print so fast!
The industry is even more jealous.
The success of "Tang Detective 2" not only represents a movie, but also represents the success of this series.
They couldn't imagine that if Su Zhe released a movie with a box office of 5 billion every year, coupled with the occasional burst of inspiration, he would release those movies with a box office of 2 to 3 billion in the summer.
So the Chinese movie market, the largest single ticket warehouse in the world, the biggest and most delicious piece of it, was all eaten up by him alone!
Fortunately, after the most frenetic first three days, the box office slowed down, but on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the box office barely exceeded 4 billion.
It is 2 days shorter than the record set by "Tang Detective 1" (9 days).
The box office data for the same period completely surrounded "Tang Detective 1", and its reputation is not bad. Everyone believes that "Tang Detective 2" is certain to exceed 5 billion.
Some people even believe that this will be the first domestic movie to exceed 6 billion.
Su Zhe remained cautious about this.
He believes that in the context of domestic economic development, population size and awareness of genuine payment, 5 billion+ is the ceiling for domestic movies.
"Tang Detective 1" has achieved the ultimate. Even if "Tang Detective 2" works harder, it will be faster at most, and the final target will only be 5 billion.
Hearing his words in Versailles, the stars at the celebration party had mixed feelings:
"Just five billion?"
"Mr. Su, you sound like a Japanese yen."
"Globally, there are very few movies with a single market exceeding US$700 million (5 billion yuan), right?"
"They are basically Hollywood movies. The highest-grossing movie, The Avenger, grossed over 800 million U.S. dollars in North America, equivalent to 6 billion RMB."
"Looking at the individual market now, only North America is better than us. But here it all depends on President Su."
Hearing their compliments, Su Zhe shook his head and was very sober:
"Hollywood movies are not only popular in the North American market, but also sold worldwide. The global box office can even exceed 20 billion RMB. How many Tang Detectives do I have to shoot to accumulate this box office?"
"And we have a hard time selling even in the nearby Southeast Asian, Japanese and Korean markets. To be honest, even Tang Detective 1, which was filmed in Thailand, was not released in Thailand."
Because Long Aotian has no overseas distribution capabilities and does not want to sell copyrights at a low price, the Tang Detective series has not entered these markets so far.
But Su Zhe can guess based on his experience in his previous life that it will not be a hot seller even if it enters. In the end, it will only make tens of millions of box office, and the overseas share will be only about 10%, which is not enough to fill the gap.
The most important thing is that without forming a heat, how can we pave the way for Chinese films?
A group of stars praised Su Zhe for his ambition to expand the market for his circle, but also advised him not to worry, as it was fine in China, and there was nothing he could do if foreigners didn't understand it.
Su Zhe could hear their indifference-
Yes, the domestic box office can exceed 5 billion, even if it is only a few movies, but as long as the reputation is good, 1 billion is still very easy.
This will make investors, stars, and directors eat fat, as long as they don't compare Su Zhe greedily, they will be satisfied.
Then why bother to enter the foreign market, risk being suppressed and deceived, and compete with those cunning foreigners for the box office?
It is better to select excellent foreign movies, buy the copyright, make localized adaptations, and add some local hot stalks and Chinese homophonic stalks, how simple it is!
In the end, the original makes a little money, and the Chinese movie makes a lot of money!
The only problem is, how can adapting foreign movies attract foreign audiences?
But it is not a problem. After all, there is such a good market that can make money lying down, why work hard to create original works, risk losing money, and go abroad to fight?
Su Zhe can see through their mentality.
And he can understand it -
Who wants to make small money by lying down when they can make big money by lying down?
After all, this is still the thinking of making works. Those who make capital are even more excessive, thinking that by continuously feeding shit, the audience will kneel down to give them money! That's disgusting!
But just like Su Zhe once declared war on traffic, as the leader of the industry, his attitude largely determines the future of Chinese films.
As the boss of the industry, he has made the most money in this industry. He can't just lie down and make easy money like other peers.
Su Zhe likes money, which will allow him to have and control more resources (after 100 million, there is no need to consider the quality of life, and it's okay to increase it).
With these resources, you have to do what you should do.
Su Zhe smiled gently:
"I will explore the way again and strive to make our stars become Asian stars. Let foreign people be more friendly to China because they like Chinese stars."
Someone flattered him:
"Mr. Su, I think you are the only one in the country who can become an Asian superstar!"
In fact, although Ye Zehong was not a superstar in his prime, he was also a top star in Asia.
But he was a successful person under the Korean system, and it had nothing to do with the domestic star-making ability.
And Su Zhe just shrugged his shoulders in the face of the flattery of the "Asian superstar".
——What a joke? How could he be satisfied with Asia?
At the celebration banquet, someone congratulated Su Zhe:
"Mr. Su, you are now the only 20 billion movie emperor in China!"
"And Teacher Li (Daoqiang) is also a 10 billion movie emperor!"
This is normal. The "Detective Chinatown" series alone contributed nearly 10 billion, and the two main actors are naturally the biggest beneficiaries.
In fact, after "Detective Chinatown 1", Su Zhe's personal box office as a starring actor exceeded 10 billion ("Secret" + "Tumor King" + "Detective Chinatown 1").
But he was not the best actor at that time, nor was he the first actor to have a starring role with a box office of over 10 billion.
Even if we carefully calculate, including those actors that famous directors like to use and have no box office appeal at all (such as a certain Ou and a certain Du), there are many billion-dollar actors, and Su Zhe is not even in the top ten.
At that time, "Detective Chinatown 1" was a big hit and broke records repeatedly. Su Zhe didn't want to mention it, feeling that it was cheap.
So, as the most glorious "billion-dollar actor" in the circle, Su Zhe never marketed and seemed very low-key.
Until now, not counting the platter, relying on the accumulation of "Infernal Affairs", "Young You" and "Detective Chinatown 2", Su Zhe has become the first actor in the circle to have a total box office of over 20 billion.
And he won the best actor again, becoming a well-deserved "20 billion-dollar actor"!
This is what Su Zhe wants.
We-media also hyped it up --
# Su Zhe became the first actor with a box office of 20 billion #
"Detective Chinatown 2" broke 4 billion, Su Zhe's total box office broke 20 billion, and various hot searches gradually pushed him to the throne of the first person in film history.
This also caused concern among his peers.
Jordan won all the championships, knocking down the status of many superstars of the same age?
Bolt was invincible at his peak, so how many sprinters could not get the gold medal?
A peer who is too dazzling, a first person in history, how can his peers live?
They found the only "loophole" in "Detective Chinatown 2" and attacked desperately, trying to lower the value of the IP:
[The settings between Kogoro and Conan are too ridiculous! Compared with Holmes and Poirot, he doesn't look like a famous detective at all. 】
[The rigorous reasoning story of "Tang Detective 2" cannot cover up the random character settings. 】
[Having Kogoro among the top ten detectives only shows that this ranking has no meaning at all. There is no point in Qin Feng's efforts to climb the rankings. 】
[I can’t imagine what kind of cases these two people can solve? 】
The smearers have no fear of being refuted. Could it be that Su Zhe would put all the hard-earned plots in the case into a small supporting role in the movie?
He really knows how to——
Su Zhe Weibo: [We have negotiated with Penguin Animation, and the first extended detective in the "Tang Detective" universe will appear! Qin Feng's good friend, the high school detective Kudo Shinichi, joins in! 】
He attached a trailer, and countless fans curiously went in and discovered that it was actually a 2D animation.
Tang Tan fans were shocked. They never expected that the first member of Tang Tan Universe would actually be a cartoon? !
In the trailer, it was not revealed that Shinichi would transform into Elementary School Conan, so the suspense was retained and only some classic cases were highlighted.
At the end, like a neon light, two lines of words slowly emerged——
Tang Detective Universe Series
"Detective Shinichi"
The fans of Tang Detective were satisfied and could finally see the legendary Qin Feng's friend, but the two neon lights of "Xinyi" flickered a few times and went out as if there was a power outage.
In the blank eyes of the fans, the neon lights lit up again, but two words were changed——
"Detective Conan"
At the same time, subtitles flashed:
[Screenwriter: Su Zhe; Original painting: Su Zhe; Animation: Ma Tou She]
The trailer is over.
The internet was in a commotion:
[The first derivative work in the "Tang Detective" universe, is it an animation or a 2D animation? Su Zhe is floating? The step was too big. 】
[Is there still 2D animation in China? Can it be done well? 】
[Didn’t you see the animation producer? It is the famous Ma Tou Society in Japan. The cost of outsourcing to Japanese people is not low. 】
[The screenwriter and original artist are both Su Zhe. He is just the screenwriter. He can also draw? 】
[Wait, stop discussing this! I want to see the handsome Shinichi! Don't watch Conan the elementary school boy playing football! Why did "Detective Shinichi" become "Detective Conan"? 】
Before seeing the anime, no one would have guessed that Shinichi and Conan were the same person.
Fans complained that they wanted to see the mysterious high school detective rather than elementary school students solving crimes.
Some people even speculated:
[Is this a children’s animation, so the protagonist is a primary school student? 】
[Children’s animation? Then I won’t watch it! boring. 】
[Su Zhe wants to cultivate Tang Tan fans from an early age? But Tang Tan Universe and children’s animation? It's too cross-border, so I don't like it. 】
In other words, no one is optimistic about it.
Not even the screenwriter Su Zhe can do it.
After all, this is a cartoon. Su Zhe can't transform himself into a paper man and play the role of Shinichi, right?
Amid the murmurings, "Detective Conan" has finally been released on Penguin Animation.
