Chapter 668: The Number of Viewers Champion

When such a sound appears, there is naturally a Shuimu Forest fanning the flames and instigating the media, but the premise must be that "Zi Buyu 2" is a good movie. Under this premise, this argument will not arouse public disgust and will be effective.

Moreover, this effect is very obvious and can be seen and tangible. In the ninth week of the release, the last week of "Zi Buyu 2", the box office rebounded in a single week, exceeding the box office in the seventh and eighth weeks, reaching 22.5 million, which is higher than the first week of ordinary movies. If you follow the normal box office curve, it would be good to have tens of millions in the last week, but that would be a little less than the box office of "Titanic 3D". It is a pity for an excellent Chinese-language movie that everyone likes.

In order to make "Zi Buyu 2" the annual box office champion, many people who are not very interested in movies go to the cinema to support it in the last time, which will help "Zi Buyu". Many otaku who have watched the gun version and other high-definitions also reluctantly walked out of their homes and came to the cinema to contribute box office. More of the fans who have watched this movie have been watched. For the love in their hearts and to give a breath of Chinese-language movies, they don’t care about the twenty or thirty yuan. For He Mu and Xiao Shuidian, it’s worth watching it again.

Because of these reasons, "Zi Buyu 2" broke out at the last moment of its release, successfully defeating "Titanic 3D", temporarily becoming the 2012 mainland box office champion. However, everyone knows that this will be temporarily removed, because except for "1946", the rest of the movies in the second half of this year are basically not qualified to challenge the box office of "Zi Buyu 2".

Even though Feng Xiaogang and a group of superstars have struggled to create the disaster blockbuster "1946", the industry has given a box office estimate of 600 million to 700 million. It is hard to imagine that such as "Zi Buyu 2" can still exceed 900 million under the pressure of "Painted Skin 2".

"Zi Buyu 2" has a box office standout and is the best in Chinese films. However, there are still two regrets.

The first one is naturally because it failed to break through the box office of one billion. Although in the end, both Shuimu Forest’s propaganda staff and those who love movies all worked very hard to support "Zi Buyu 2", it was a bit worse before, and it was not easy to catch up with "Titanic 3D".

The grand goal of one billion was still not achieved. It was 19 million. If it was released for another two weeks, it might be able to be completed. However, "Zi Buyu 2" is not a super hot film like "Avatar" that can win the weekly championship ten weeks after release. The benefits created by postponing two weeks cannot offset the cost. Therefore, Shuimu's publicity and distribution workers did not make billions for one billion. He Mu also firmly believes that even if "Zi Buyu 2" does not reach one billion, "Zi Buyu 2" will definitely be able to complete the unfinished legacy of "Zi 2".

The second regret is that the official statistics of "Zi Buyu 2" finally reached 29.85 million, only 150,000 viewers, and the box office of about 5 million can exceed the 30 million viewers. Unfortunately, it was still a little bit worse in the end.

He Mu likes this honor because no movie in the mainland has achieved this result, including those Hollywood blockbusters. The box office of "Avatar" with a high ticket price is due to the high ticket price, and the actual number of viewers is only 27.64 million.

Although "Transformers 3" swept the mainland film market last year and achieved a brilliant record of 1.08 billion, the number of viewers was only 25.95 million.

There are 38.7 million viewers in "Titanic", but that is the total number of viewers in the two screenings. The number of viewers in each screening is only about 20 million.

Of course, He Mu is also proud enough. Although he failed to break through the historic data of 30 million viewers, "Zi Buyu 2" has become the number one film viewer in the mainland history since the film marketization reform!

"Zi Buyu 2" dare not compare with old movies such as "Shaolin Temple" and "Gullshots of the Secret Bureau", but since there are detailed statistics in the mainland, "Zi Buyu 2" is indeed the most well-deserved moviegoers, more than two million more than "Avatar" in the second place.

After the filming of "Zi Buyu 2", the media continued to make a series of reports on the amazing achievements of the movie. Then "Zi Buyu 2" was launched on the Tudou Movie Channel and only cost five yuan to earn a member to watch the movie. In just one day, the number of paid viewers of "Zi Buyu 2" reached 1.15 million, and the online paid income was 5.75 million, which directly stimulated the number of VIP users of Tudou.com.

Now, the ones that can put some pressure on Tudou.com in the field of video websites are probably Tencent Video and Baidu's Qiyi.com. The latter two rely on the unparalleled financial advantages of the Internet giants behind it. Many programs and film and television dramas can be earned with money, while Tudou relies on the high-quality content resources and websites provided by Shuimu Forest and Hulang Film and Television, and the websites are rich and diverse. Although it is grassroots and rough, it is in line with the appetite of most netizens.

While Tencent Video, Qiyi.com and Tudou.com are developing rapidly and seizing market share, the position of Youku.com, the former leader of the video website, is becoming increasingly awkward. However, there are reports that Gu Yongqiang has frequently met Jack Ma recently, and rumors of Alibaba investing in Youku are rampant. If Youku, which is in awkward situation, can really get the support of the Internet giant Alibaba, it is very likely to catch up with those three websites in a short period of time and form a pattern of four major video websites.

These are all off-topics. How to develop a website with less funds than other Internet giants is Xiao Fang's topic. Before "Cold Heart 3" was officially launched, He Mu now devoted himself to the post-production of "Zi Buyu 3".

However, another problem occurred during this period. The digital field special effects studio established by James Scameron, which once shocked the world's film industry and was as famous as Industrial Light and Magic, went bankrupt due to poor management!

Although Shuimu Forest has cooperated with the digital field for several consecutive movies, for the digital field, that little income can not help the scarred special effects company.

"Uncle, what should I do? The digital field is like this now. No one can make our movies for us." Xiao Nan said in a panic.

"oh."

"Oh what, are you not in a hurry at all? You are not afraid of not being able to catch up with the New Year's Eve? Otherwise, let's change the company, Xiao Xie's PO Chaoting is also good."

He Mu was very calm, "Just just now, I called Jeff and asked him where the digital field will go in the future."

"What did he say?"

"Auction," He Mu smiled brightly, "and the reserve price is not high."
