Of course, it is still some time before December, and even the small-scale group battle in November has not started yet. Lin Yuan can complete the arrangement and accompaniment production without rushing.
When Lin Yuan played "When Will the Bright Moon Rise" in the Battle of the Gods, he didn't intend to win solely by the song!
In a world dominated by composers, who is worse than who when it comes to composing music
Words are the biggest trump card.
Unless a Xin Qiji and Su Shi can stand out in the contemporary world of Blue Star to compete with each other.
Of course, the premise that lyrics can be used as a winning trump card is that your music cannot be too bad. If the music is bad, then it would be a wrong approach.
The melody of the song "When Will the Bright Moon Rise" is still very good.
Many people in China generally feel that this is a song that gets better the more you listen to it. It is a work passed down by Teresa Teng and covered by countless music celebrities, so how could the quality be bad
These are the sources of Lin Yuan’s confidence.
In addition to producing the arrangement and accompaniment, Lin Yuan also supervised the post-production of "Hachiko: A Dog's Story".
Since last year, Blue Star has adjusted the time of the Spring Festival, and January has become the Spring Festival.
With such adjustments, the dates of the Spring Festival movie season will naturally be adjusted as well.
In other words.
Now January has become the Spring Festival period, which is when competition in the film and television market is the most intense!
Even the winter vacation has been brought forward!
It is October now, and it is not even mid-month yet, but the fifth-year students at Qinzhou Art College where Lin Yuan is studying have already started their winter vacation.
For Lin Yuan, this means the end of the first semester of his senior year.
By the end of the next semester, Lin Yuan will officially graduate from university.
If this were a common four-year university in China, Lin Yuan would already be considered a graduate by now. However, on Blue Star, he still had to follow the rules of Blue Star. There wasn't much time left in his fifth year anyway, and there wouldn't even be many classes in the next semester.
It didn’t matter whether he had classes or not, because Lin Yuan only went to school a few times throughout his fifth year.
At this time, Lin Yuan’s focus was not on the winter vacation, but on the schedule for the movie broadcast.
What lies before him is the tempting Spring Festival period.
Lin Yuan really wanted to take part in the box office battle during the Spring Festival.
Because the Spring Festival period has the largest audience of the whole year, students and white-collar workers are all on holiday.
These people are the backbone of the box office revenue for the film.
However, considering that there are many people and movies during the Spring Festival, after all, everyone wants to grab the box office, Lin Yuan doesn't want to join in.
There aren't enough time slots.
Instead of rushing to catch the subway during rush hour, why not leave earlier
With this idea in mind, Lin Yuan set his sights on next month, which is November!
Due to the special nature of Lin Yuan's filming, the shots were all cut in order with almost no redundant shots. Coupled with Blue Star's strong technical support for the film industry, the post-production was very fast, and it was completely possible to release it in November.
Besides, commercial movies that create an atmosphere are more popular during the Spring Festival, and it would be even better if it was a family movie.
Lin Yuan is bringing "Hachiko: A Dog's Story" to the Spring Festival schedule, making people cry during the Chinese New Year
That's too heartless.
The Spring Festival is a time for happiness and not depression. Lin Yuan feels no burden in letting people cry before the New Year.
…
Lin Yuan shared his idea with Lao Zhou.
Old Zhou deeply agreed with this.
Now is no longer the time when Lin Yuan is not valued by the company after filming a movie.
The top executives of Starlight are not fools. Facing Lin Yuan, who has produced two successful films in a row, how could they still have the same lax attitude as before
So when it comes to choosing the release date for Hachiko: A Dog's Story? Lao Zhou is very serious.
He immediately contacted the theater, confirmed some situations, and walked into Lin Yuan's office the next day.
"How about November 11th?"
"Double Eleven?"
"What is Double Eleven?"
"I mean Singles' Day."
"November 11 is indeed Singles' Day, but some people also say that this day represents a lifetime, but of course these are not the main reasons why we chose November 1st to release the film..."
"What's the point?"
"The schedule is relatively empty on this day? Plus there are no big movies on the same day? The competition facing Hachiko won't be too fierce."
"Let's do it this day."
Lin Yuan has no objection? We can make it in time.
Lao Zhou nodded: "By the way, I'll also tell you about the current situation of the film market."
"Um?"
"You may not understand? Now the three continents have merged? The market has changed so much? Even the movie release model has changed dramatically..."
Lao Zhou explained it to Lin Yuan in detail.
It turns out that the population after the merger of the three continents is just too large? In terms of geography, it is equivalent to dozens of countries on Earth in the previous life, so this market is already very large? The theaters combined can easily digest dozens of movies in the same period.
Therefore, whether it is the number of film companies or the number of cinemas, they are all extremely exaggerated.
But for many cinemas, there is only so much time in a day? If they rotate a dozen, or even dozens or hundreds of movies that are released at the same time, how should they allocate their time
Even if we arrange everything in 24 hours, it won’t be enough!
Not to mention, after each wave of moviegoers, the cinema has to arrange time for cleaning.
Does that mean it has to be a cycle of several days
It's even more impossible. It's true that all eggs should not be put in one basket, but you can't put one egg in one basket. Who has so many baskets
This involves the issue of how theaters choose and reject films released during the same period.
There are many movies that want to be released every day, and it is impossible for theaters to accept all of them, so the theater chains will screen the quality of the movies.
If the cinema chain thinks a movie is good, they will schedule it;
If the cinema doesn't think highly of a movie, just forget about it. There are so many movies to choose from, and it's not a pity to miss a good one occasionally, because there may be other good ones to replace it.
In this case.
Those movies that are truly promising can gain the favor of 90% of theaters at once and be signed on the spot.
Movies that were not well received by the cinemas...
Anyway, there are so many cinemas, there will always be people who want it, unless the movie is really bad and no one wants it.
Xianyu’s movies will not fall to the point where no one wants them, but they will also not be able to capture more than 90% of the theaters.
To this end, Lao Zhou contacted a film screening, where many representatives from theater chains would come to watch the film.
Those who are optimistic about this movie will come up with a signing proposal in the next few days.
If you are not optimistic, you won’t contact me.
This model is completely different from that on Earth, and can be described as a world of difference.
Because each country in the world plays its own game, and everyone has their own film market.
The audiences are already happy enough watching their own country's films, and it would be enough to import some more competitive films from overseas.
But on Blue Star, the whole world uses the same language, there is not much cultural barrier, the population base is terrifying, the market is so huge that it is almost abnormal, and the audience's choices are too diverse—
With such fierce competition, there are both advantages and disadvantages.
Therefore, at the film screening, the attitude of major theaters towards the film becomes of paramount importance!
Lin Yuan felt a little emotional.
He once again intuitively felt the changes brought about by the merger of the three continents. Next year, Yanzhou will also join, and then there will be four continents.
The population and market are even more exaggerated.
No one knows what kind of changes will occur by then. Even the decision makers who make the merger of the continents may only be able to cross the river by feeling the stones. This forest is too big, so anything can happen in it.
"Then let Manager Zhou be in charge of the film viewing meeting."
When it comes to areas that Lin Yuan is not good at, Lao Zhou will definitely be asked to do it. This is also the advantage of having the company's support. Lin Yuan does not have the ability to bring together representatives from major theaters. This is a reflection of the entire Xingmang network of people, and it is not something that one person can handle.
"Okay, I'll try to get as many theaters as possible."
Lao Zhou smiled, and was eagerly looking forward to the quality of the final film of "Hachiko", which would directly determine how many theaters this movie could conquer!
