Chapter 426: I asked you to do scientific research, but you do science fiction?!
This is indeed the case. A few days later, everyone realized that this movie was different from other Hollywood movies and it did not start at its peak.
In China, although "Resident Evil" is not a universal audience, and the movie is bloody and violent and is not recommended for people under 16 years old, it still exploded at the box office.
Ranked first in the same period, of course it is first!
This is the Avengers' main battlefield, and coupled with their recent popularity, the box office is bound to explode even without any promotion.
78 million, 83 million, over 100 million in two days! In the following days, 9% of the screening volume remained in the top three.
The sudden rise of the dark horse "Resident Evil" was something no one expected.
The story presentation, cultural core, and filming techniques do not seem like they were made by a director who has only been in the industry for a few years.
The maturity level is too high!
What’s more, he is a big Xia director!
The overseas entertainment circles all say that Daxia has been rising rapidly in recent years, and now they believe it, it’s true!
This rise is not an ordinary rise, it is an all-round rise in the cultural industry!
Many excellent works and outstanding talents have entered the Western vision and become part of the lives of people overseas.
The new generation of Daxia is really capable!
Looking at the data online, Lionsgate began to feel a sense of crisis.
They wanted to use "Resident Evil" to gain power, but they never thought that the other party was worthy of being their opponent.
I even think that this is just a hobby project.
Now it seems that he is really good at fighting!
On the other hand, Magi was very happy. Whether "Resident Evil" would be a hit or not was another matter, but it was definitely certain that it would break the 100 million mark.
It’s not impossible to break 400 or 500 million US dollars!
The problem now is the Avengers video they received about 3D technology. Compared to those hundreds of millions of dollars, this is the real highlight that will scare people to death!
The entire Magi top management was shocked!
When Vice President Stephen met with Lin Mo 10 months ago, they talked about technology.
He remembered it at the time, but so much time has passed that his memory has become a little fuzzy.
One day in January, I suddenly received proactive contact from the Avengers.
"Boss, the Avengers said they've successfully developed 3D graphics. I'd like to ask if our company is interested?"
When Ada received the email, she scoffed at first. If she doesn't understand technology, doesn't she understand movies?
What level do you have to dare to mention 3D?
When I opened it, I saw...
Five minutes later, she ran into Vice President Stephen's office without even catching her breath.
She felt that she should show it to Boss no matter what!
"What?"
Stephen tried hard to think about his last meeting with Lin Mo.
"Is this true? Let me see."
He remembered it, but he felt that the possibility of realization was not great. The best chance was to do a round of fine-tuning and optimization on the existing technology.
Moreover, 3D is generally believed to require the assistance of wearable devices such as glasses and helmets, and it cannot be seen from a video alone.
But anyway, let's see if it helps Magi.
He casually clicked play...
“!!!!”
“!!!!”
“????”
“FXXX!”
When his eyes fell on the red fire phoenix wandering among the crowd in the middle of the video!
His expression froze, his hands trembled, and his pupils flashed with disbelief.
He jumped up from his chair and opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word for a long time. He seemed to be fixed in place by an invisible force, and everything around him became blurry and distant.
Only the scene before him was deeply imprinted in his mind, making him unable to recover for a long time.
“!!!”
“???”
"Is this 3D? Are you sure it's not a fake video?"
"I told you to do scientific research, but you do science fiction?!"
I watched the 3-minute video over and over again for a long time.
He still couldn't believe it and swallowed.
He said to Ada who was also stunned:
"I'm going to report to the chairman and CEO. Please help me get in touch with Mr. Xiaolin from the Avengers. I'll take the nearest flight to Daxia myself!"
Ada turned around and was about to go back to work when he stopped her.
"Wait, just say Magi is going to pay a formal visit to the Avengers, and the etiquette must be thorough! I want to see with my own eyes, is there a new technological revolution?!"
The box office of "Resident Evil" continues to grow, posing a subtle threat to "Tomb Raider", which originally had an absolute advantage.
At this time, the media suddenly broke the news.
【MagiStudio went to Daxia to meet with the top executives of "Avengers Alliance"! 】
[Hollywood X Daxia's first close contact? ]
[Magi and the Avengers? A powerful alliance or a desperate struggle?]
[The difficult road to survival of the former king Magistudio! 】
Why did Magistudio's top executives travel to Daxia?
I opened it and saw that this wasn't just some ordinary cooperation exchange. Oh my god! The chairman, CEO, and a whole bunch of senior executives were there?!
What's the point? Is this a desperate attempt to find a cure?
"What's the point of looking for Daxia? Looking for God is almost the same."
The atmosphere at Lionsgate was not very good, and the Tomb Raider, which was originally gaining momentum, was cast a shadow.
The result! Looking at Magi's operation, I suddenly wondered why I should compete with this declining company.
The more wrong decisions they make, the faster it’s over!
Magi has indeed been in trouble in recent years. It has made some money back through a few projects, but bankruptcy is imminent.
If they take just one wrong step, they can take over this former king, and then Lionsgate will be able to surpass the first and second place in North America and dominate the market from then on!
This is the situation they want to see!
Several people can't wait to open the champagne to celebrate! The day of Magi's fall seems to be just around the corner!
"Daxia, what do you want to see Daxia for? To give you guidance on your work?!"
"Avengers, are you still okay in Daxia? It's not that easy to get into Hollywood!"
Just as they were celebrating Magi's wrong decision, a sudden voice appeared.
"Isn't it because of traffic that all the top management are down?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene immediately became quiet.
"Resident Evil" and "Tomb Raider" are competing with each other. At this time, Magi's big news will undoubtedly draw all the attention to them.
"Isn't that what they're planning?"
In order to grab traffic and attention, they use things in the capital circle to attack the promotion of the film?
"No way?"
"Such a despicable trick..."
"The top brass is personally promoting this? Has Magi reached this point of despair?"
Lionsgate, who originally thought the other party couldn't be so despicable, saw the latest day's box office...
"Fuxx, this vicious business war!"
They have completely determined that Magi's move is just to KO "Tomb Raider" in terms of publicity.
As the saying goes, where there is a topic there is traffic!
The news that Magi's senior executives were visiting Daxia, a rare event in a decade, became a huge hit as soon as it came out, and the heat spread from the investment circle to the film circle.
After all, the two protagonists in this news have a child together - "Resident Evil".
One week after the movie was released, "Resident Evil"'s Rotten Tomatoes satisfaction rating was fixed at 89%!
Very high! Incredibly high! It's top-notch in an action movie!
Coupled with the news of Magi's visit, major cinemas have adjusted their screening schedules for "Resident Evil".
The average was 18%, and some even adjusted to 25%.
This is the victory of word of mouth and traffic!
