Chapter 450 "Flying Star Journey"(1/2)
Pei Qian hurriedly clicked on the promotional page of the movie to check it out.
Flying Star Journey
Action/Science Fiction/Fantasy 3d imax
United States/134 minutes
Released on 2011-03-12
Introduction
On the eve of World War I, the traumatized former officer Tim (played by John Stanton) accidentally traveled to a mysterious planet and was involved in the dispute between multiple forces on the planet. Although these forces regarded him as the key figure to end the dispute, and even won the love of the beautiful princess Linne (played by Dega Morton), can he really leave the past and turn the fate of the planet?
After reading this introduction, Pei Qian's joyful mood was instantly poured with cold water.
This story doesn't seem to be very attractive!
But then I thought about it... it seems that the films made in the United States are all this routine. "Avatar", which was popular all over the world, also traveled to another planet and had a hot fight with local indigenous girls?
Well, it's almost the same.
The key is to look at the director and investment!
As long as the director is reliable and the investment is higher, it is definitely a matter of raising the friction of this film on the ground!
Pei Qian hurried to check out more information about this movie.
After reading it, Pei Qian breathed a sigh of relief.
Stay stable!
Director Darryl directed his first animated short film as early as 1988. So far, he has directed many films and has won many Academy Award nominations. In 2005, the animated film he directed was blocked at 600 million yuan worldwide and won the Best Animated Feature Film Award at the Oscar. In 2008, his next science fiction animated film won this award again.
The movie "Flying Star Journey" is adapted from a classic science fiction novel published in 1911 in the United States. It is now the 100th anniversary of the original novel. The total investment of the movie exceeds 170 million yuan, and the actors are full of stars. The protagonist John Stanton worked hard to complete very rigorous physical training during the filming. While enduring the pain and completing the filming, he lost a full 25 pounds, which is a dedicated model.
In short, Pei Qian read the information about this film from beginning to end and felt relieved in his heart.
This is the standard American blockbuster template!
Look at this luxurious lineup, look at this big investment, famous directors and actors plus a good script, and broadcast the world casually, and there should be no problem with a total box office of 600 million yuan, right?
If you do it casually in China, you can get 500 million or 600 million soft sister coins.
Moreover, Pei Qian is too short. Based on the investment of 170 million yuan, the global box office of this film with a box office of 500 million yuan and 600 million yuan can only be considered as a loss.
If it is a big blow, then you have to go for one billion!
At that time, major theaters will work hard to make "A Beautiful Tomorrow" disappear?
Currently, the first day of theaters released, the film was given 31.4% of the film schedule. If the next trend is good, then the film schedule will definitely rise!
The screening of "A Better Tomorrow" has dropped to less than 15%.
The only thing Pei Qian feels like a pity now is that this movie was more than half a month late. If it could be released with "Bright Tomorrow", it would be absolutely safe!
However, it is not too late to release now, at least it will reduce Pei Qian's follow-up income a lot!
Thinking of this, Pei Qian was so inspired.

Saturday, March 12.
Today is a weekend and you don’t have to go to work, but for Pei Qian, every weekend starting today, the task is very heavy!
While eating fishing takeaway, he checked the reservation status of the otto e1 phone.
Sure enough, the number of reservations so far has not reached 5,000. This time, the stocking can be reduced by at least 4,000 units, which is almost the same as Pei Qian's estimated number.
On the Internet, this number has also caused ridicule from many people.
Because otto The e1 phone was just in the press conference, it was very lively, and the video of the press conference was on the digital list of the Ailey Island website. The penis of Changyou also attracted everyone to imitate it.
On the day of the press conference, 1,000 units were instantly snatched away, creating an illusion of high popularity.
Many people have questioned that this is in hunger marketing. Now, deposit reservations are open, but the number of appointments is less than 5,000, which is an order of magnitude different from other big-name mobile phone manufacturers.
As a result, the squirting points of the crowd changed very naturally.
"Otto Technology is really a bad move. They should continue to engage in hunger marketing. Selling it bit by bit, the popularity of mobile phones can still be maintained. Now, it's OK, and it's sold openly. Everyone knows how much this mobile phone is. There are only 5,000 people making appointments in total. Isn't it embarrassing?"
"Even if you make some fakes? Add one more to the number of pre-orders, it's not embarrassing!"
"Haha, I think Mr. Chang must have expanded. All the 3,000 mobile phones in front were sold out, which gave him the illusion that this mobile phone seemed very popular, so he made a reservation and instantly revealed!"
"When you are out of stock, you say hunger marketing, and when you have stock, you say that this phone is not popular enough, and the trolls will always be invincible..."
"Haha, that's the case. I won't ask for more. If this phone can be sold for 30,000 units in total, I will barely admit that it is popular. The key is whether it can be? Now there are 3,000 units sold in total and 5,000 reservations, which is already the top! It turns out that it is not far from marketing and IQ tax!"
Looking at these comments, Pei Qian felt much more comfortable and had a few more mouthfuls of food.
Especially the last one, he was righteous and resounding, and completely asserted that the otto mobile phone was not a good idea, which made Pei Qian feel comfortable.
The only regret is that this guy probably doesn’t know the market situation very well. In fact, selling only 3,000 units has already made Mr. Pei earn 12 million. Even if he returns these profits to other departments, he makes more than one million.
If you sell 30,000 units, wouldn’t it take President Pei’s life?
Then, Pei Qian took another look at the player reviews of "be quiet".
So far, players are still arguing about the purchase threshold of this game, and there are only a very small number of topics about the game itself.
Although the sales of the game are also increasing, it has only sold less than 10,000 copies so far.
Compared to previous games, it was a start to Tianhu!
Pei Qian was very happy. The process he carefully designed to persuade him to withdraw was obviously effective and effective!
Of course, I have been scolded a lot.
This is also the point where players on the Internet have the most quarrels.
At the beginning, "be quiet" was released. Players found that they could not buy it and had to decrypt it first. Many players were already angry and even threw the game away;
After a full week of solving the arg puzzle, it finally came out. Many people were happy to buy it, but found that there were actually prerequisites!
Moreover, this precondition even takes nearly an hour, and a horrible mini-game has to be completed. Some people who don’t have a camera at home have to make a camera...
Although "Lonely Desert Highway" and "Game Producer" are already free, for many people who have never played these two games, they don't want to download or play them at all.
In short, these few steps of pre-conditions have taken action to dismiss a large number of players and has also caused great controversy, which has continued until now.
Some players said that Tengda had become a leap and let himself go, and made a meaningless publicity, which actually affected the sales of the game, waiting for the game to die suddenly;
Some players also say that the game has screened out players through this method, so that those impatient novice players cannot enter the game, so that they can purify the game environment and improve the game experience, which is part of the game marketing strategy, and at present, it is very successful.
Pei Qian was interested in these debates.
Pei Qian really wants to tell everyone, in fact, what you are right!
I really hope that the game will die suddenly, and I am indeed screening players. You are talking about the same thing!
In addition to these two types of people who are being heatedly debated, there are also some posts that make Pei Qian sigh at the greatness of the wisdom of the people.
A player named "super" posted a detailed guide to passing preconditions, including how long to drive in "Lonely Desert Highway", how to choose each time in "Game Producer", how to operate on the tpdb website, etc.
The most slutty thing is that this poster also developed the ultimate skip gameplay of passing the last level: find a piece of paper and dig a hole on it and cover it on the screen, so that your eyes only need to keep staring at the small screen behind the hole, and you will not be affected by the ghosts around the screen at all.
It was originally an ultimate test that required more than half an hour to succeed and had strong willpower. After using this skip class gameplay, many people could pass it in one try...
Pei Qian only has two capital letters for this post, and admires it!
Of course, there is a way to make up for this loophole, that is, continue to adjust the gameplay, so that the player's eyes must sweep across every corner of the screen throughout the whole process, instead of just staring at one place.
However, considering that the current game sales are not very good, it is obvious that the current challenge has a strong effect of persuading withdrawal, so Pei Qian turned a blind eye to this.
After all, the few people in the player group can truly reach this last step.
Finally, Pei Qian opened the Dog Eye app to check the box office status of "Flying Star Journey" on the first day.
It was just noon, and the box office of "Flying Star Journey" had exceeded 11 million, and the first day's box office should be around 24 million.
Pei Qian couldn't help but frown slightly, as if he wasn't as awesome as he thought?
But then I thought about it, today is the first day of release, and there will be a wave of movie viewing tomorrow and Sunday. Isn’t it easy to add up to 60 million in two days?
Famous directors and actors have big investments and big scenes. No matter how you look at it, you can't lose. You can easily score a box office of 600 million to 700 million. Are you embarrassed to say hello to others?
Pei Qian still remembers that the box office of "A Beautiful Tomorrow" on the first day was less than 8 million, and the first day was around 17 million. The estimated box office of Dog Eye App has reached 210 million.
After that, the data of "Bright Tomorrow" is still rising, and now the estimated box office of Dog Eye App has reached 230 million.
Pei Qian hurriedly clicked on the estimated box office of "Flying Star Journey".
"320 million soft sister coins?"
"That's the box office that's so high? I don't believe it!"
Pei Qian almost thought that this number was 0.
However, after thinking about it, the box office estimate of Dogyan App is only an estimate and is not necessarily accurate, especially the situation where it is estimated based on half a day's box office, which is even more inaccurate.
Wouldn't you think it's too little if you watch "A Beautiful Tomorrow"?
