Chapter 528 "District Ninth" takes off!
Even though the film "Pearl Harbor" is full of complaints, Disney Group, the publisher behind the film, is not a vegetarian.
The power of the media group takes action!
In almost less than 10 minutes, many negative news were quickly suppressed.
"Innocence is unreliable, you should start as soon as possible. It is better to make a triangle than to be a bird in war."
——From Rotten Tomato website.
This is a message that the movie "Pearl Harbor" was topped on the Rotten Tomato website page, and the number of likes netizens reached 13,000.
But...what now?
It was revoked!
Completely disappeared from the Rotten Tomato website.
At the same time, a large number of online navy troops dispatched and gave 5-star ratings, instantly suppressing all the negative news.
In one sentence, blow it up!
"Hollywood Movie Report", "21st Century New Movie Weekly", "Century Disney" and other well-known media newspapers are either Disney's newspapers or partners; under Disney's instruction, articles praising the movie "Pearl Harbor" were quickly released.
This is the power of the media group!
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk ~ Robert Eiger's movements are fast enough!"
After hearing the news, Shea Yi, the boss of Xinyi Film Industry, couldn't help but smile: "Looking at the media power of the United States, Disney is enough to rank in the top five, second only to Viacom, News Group, Comcast, and Times Media. In just ten minutes, many negative news were erased, which is amazing!"
The words fell.
John Nathan, vice president of New Line, nodded and echoed: "If Disney did not have this kind of strength, we would not have accepted its investment in New Line Film at the beginning."
It’s great to enjoy the cool under the big tree!!!
Shay agrees very much: "In Hollywood in the early 21st century, if a film company does not have a powerful media group behind it, it can only become an ordinary production company and will never be able to be the top in the industry."
"Dreamworks Group is amazing enough!"
“It is known as the top presence in Hollywood!
"However...its power in the media field cannot be compared with the six major ones."
"Jiuke's Jin Shuguang Entertainment is one of the few media groups that can fight against the parent companies behind the six major Hollywood companies."
When talking about Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group, Xie Yi couldn't help but feel envious.
Why did Zhuke, a young latecomer, achieve what he wanted but could never do?
This is also the reason why Shay always feels unhappy about Zhuke.
WB TV Network, the fifth largest public television network in the United States;
UPN TV Network, the third largest paid limited television network in the United States;
At the same time, Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group is also extremely powerful in all aspects such as radio, music, movies, animation production, distribution, publishing, peripheral product operation, etc.;
In terms of overall size, there is still a certain gap between Jin Shuguang and Viacom Group, News Group, Disney Group, and Sony Group, but... in some areas, Zhuke's Jin Shuguang is definitely not inferior to them, and they are even more successful.
"Johnarson, do you think if Juke Wald's new work "The Ninth District" becomes popular, will Michael Eisner and Robert Eiger suddenly become angry?" Shea asked suddenly.
"No, no, no, no?" Vice President Johnathan said in surprise.
Upon hearing this, Shay said to himself: "It's hard to say~ The movie produced by Wald Pictures has always had a good reputation."
.........
In the original time and space, although many moviegoers expressed great disappointment after watching it, the lack of competitors in the film still achieved good box office results.
The first three days of the first weekend, the box office in North America reached more than 59 million US dollars;
The total box office in North America was US$198 million, ranking 7th in the 2001 North America annual box office rankings;
The global box office was as high as US$449 million.
Although the film's cost of $250 million was extremely costly, the producers suffered huge losses, well, the box office was still quite good.
But...what now?
In the current release period of "Pearl Harbor", "The Ninth District" exists!
How much box office can "Pearl Harbor" eventually win is definitely the future. One thing is certain that it will lose even worse!
......
A theater or a theater in Los Angeles.
At this moment, the video being played is Wald Pictures' new work "The Ninth District".
The film tells the story of a huge spacecraft suddenly descending to Earth at some time in the future!
What surprised everyone was that the spacecraft did not stop in big cities such as Manhattan, Washington, or Chicago, but instead stayed directly over Johannesburg.
Then, the spacecraft did not move anyway.
The whole world is watching, looking forward to...the music shines with the bright light, and it falls from the sky.
"Wow~ There are quite a lot of people watching the movie "The Ninth District"."
Shea, the owner of Xinyi Films, said.
He took his company's vice president John Nathan to the nearby cinema to watch the movie.
Johnson said: "For this theater, the attendance rate is no less than 60%, which is considered good. Although the film "The Ninth District" is not a high-investment commercial blockbuster, thanks to Wald Pictures' consistent high reputation, it is not that surprising that it can attract such a large number of viewers on the day of its release."
Shay nodded.
It is precisely because of the excellent reputation of Wald Pictures that Wald Pictures has quickly grown into the sixth largest existence after Hollywood in just a few years.
The movie continues~~~
The opening scene of "The Ninth District" adopts a pseudo-documentary-style shooting technique, introducing a large number of interview shots of characters.
Overall, it looks like experts and citizens are being interviewed by TV.
"Aliens have arrived on Earth."
In the video, an expert said: "This creature is very malnourished, looks very unhealthy, and they are in a trance. As the whole world is watching Johannesburg and paying attention to alien visits to the earth, the government quickly set up a rescue team to transport all of these aliens to the bottom of the spacecraft and build a huge temporary camp."
Millions of aliens!
Another expert faced the camera and said: "The so-called temporary camps and temporary shelters are actually a slum-style isolation area with extremely different living environments and living conditions. And they have begun to implement militarized management."
The arrival of millions of aliens, no, to be precise, the arrival of millions of interstellar refugees, has caused great panic to all parts of the United States.
Conflicts and conflicts were born.
And, there is a trend of getting worse!
At the entrances of various restaurants, banks, and even on the walls and glass of any business store on the street, there are signs that aliens do not enter.
Well, or a warning sign!
Discrimination is everywhere!
The following movie content is about local citizens from Johannesburg, who made a remark that could be called "strike".
"To maintain the quarantine area, a lot of money is spent every year, and this money could have been spent elsewhere, but at least it is a blessing in disguise to separate these abominable aliens from us."
"Virus! Pick a virus carefully and release it near the aliens, destroying them all!"
"They have to leave, no matter where they go, and get out as soon as possible."
"If they were from other places, we could understand, but they... weren't even from Earth."
"Aliens, those prawns, they took my wife's life."
The derogatory word "prawn" is used to refer to aliens, and it is obvious that he refers to lower animals who make a living by eating scavenging.
"You can't say, they don't look like that kind of animal. They just look like that, don't they? They do drive like prawns."
.........
The collision between Earth civilization and alien civilization has made the survival pressure of aliens at disadvantaged positions increasingly serious.
Now, 20 years have passed.
At that time, there were only 1.8 million aliens who arrived on Earth, and they were all banned together. This place is the ninth district!
Now, 20 years later, public pressure has forced the government to move these aliens out of Johannesburg.
"They've had enough, and they hope that District 9 will be moved out as soon as possible and be under more police force and more control."
Therefore, to implement this large-scale expulsion operation, the government will rely on the power of MNU (the world's second largest arms company in the video)
To transfer 1.8 million prawns from their existing home in the ninth district, to a location 200 kilometers away from Johannesburg.
Well, a beautiful name is "a better and safer place."
“Huh?”
Shei, the owner of Xinyi Film Industry, said in surprise: "Alien movies are not about aliens attacking the earth, but about becoming interstellar refugees treated differently and forbidden? Good idea!"
Chapter completed!
