Soon, the premiere was over.
But Huang Ze’s work is not over yet.
In order to ensure that this animated film, which is based on Chinese historical stories, can get good box office results in North America, Huang Ze cannot stop.
He needs to go back to his old job, promote his album in various media, and even go to theaters to sign autographs for fans.
Huang Ze felt a little scared when he thought of this.
I haven't released a new song for a long time. Will my American fans want to shoot me?
Do I need to wear a bulletproof vest?
"It's difficult!"
Huang Ze found that he would be letting his fans down if he didn't release any more songs.
Maybe it will even cause fans to have a rebellious mentality, thinking that if you don’t release any songs in the future, we won’t watch your movies!
"That's it, that's all!"
"I just happen to be free right now. It's been a while since I left filming The Matrix. I'll release the song in two months!"
Forehead!
I will definitely release a song this year!
This is how I respond when fans ask me!
Huang Ze nodded secretly and made a decision.
……
After the screening, when the audience left, the questionnaire surveyors hired by Warner appeared again.
"C, as long as Huang doesn't release new songs, I will give his movies a C!"
"A, unique style, an excellent animation, I like the protagonist in it very much, but it's a pity that the script was not written by Huang. I hope Huang can write an animated film script again!"
"Ah, I really like watching Disney princess movies. Although this movie is an ancient oriental story, it is still surprisingly exciting!" said a little girl about ten years old happily.
"But this is a movie released by Warner." Her father beside her couldn't help but criticize her.
"Ah? Isn't it a Disney princess movie?" The little girl widened her eyes, "But this animation is clearly similar to Disney princess movies."
"Everyone inside is a wise and brave princess!"
"Hahaha, just think of it as a Disney princess movie." The father didn't say anything else. There were too many cases where a movie was mistaken for a movie from another company.
Don't force it!
As long as the children are happy watching it.
"Mulan" received good reviews and was accepted by North American audiences.
The box office data is also very good.
The previous version of "Mulan" ranked among the top ten in the global box office in 98.
Although the distributor has changed in this life and has become Warner, the animation distribution capabilities are definitely not comparable to Disney.
but!
Warner is now the world's largest film distribution company.
The distribution capability is also quite strong.
The previous "Lilo & Stitch" made them see the opportunity to expand into the animation field, which is quite profitable and far more profitable than ordinary movies, so they are naturally very supportive of "Mulan".
The film opened directly in 2,500 theaters.
Massive publicity.
Such a start also allowed "Mulan" to earn 20 million US dollars in the first three days of its weekend.
In ten days, it exceeded 40 million US dollars!
After Huang Ze had been promoting the film for more than half a month and "Mulan" had been successfully released for 17 days, the box office reached 53 million US dollars.
Taking into account that animated films have longer-lasting box office revenue than ordinary films, the relevant media finally gave the final price of "Mulan" as 110 million US dollars!
This is an animated film that has a high chance of breaking 100 million!
……
"Mulan" is a film in ink painting style.
It is a movie that tells the story of ancient China.
More importantly, this animated film was produced by the Xinghai Animation Division in Shanghai, and the team behind this production was originally from Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio. In addition, Hong Kong has already returned to China.
With all these factors combined, the storm this time brought to the domestic film industry is no less than that of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and may even be worse than that.
The employees of Xinghai Animation who had previously worked at the Shanghai Art Film Studio cheered when they learned that "Mulan" had grossed over 50 million . dollars and would most likely exceed 100 million in North America.
The whole company was filled with cheers!
Think about it, the factory no longer had bonuses and salaries could no longer be paid on time.
Thinking about it now, it seems like a dream!
Not only can you earn more money and live a better life, the most important thing is that you can realize your ambitions.
The previous "Lilo & Stitch" movie grossed over 100 million in North America.
This time, an ancient story produced at home is likely to exceed 100 million yuan. This feeling is indescribable.
Such a film brought a new kind of shock to the domestic film market, which has seen a sharp collapse in box office sales.
Everyone has heard of the story of Hua Mulan.
Why didn't anyone think of filming it?
Of course, this only applies to domestic film practitioners.
The media were frantically reporting on the achievements of "Mulan" in North America.
Even the long-lost 7 o'clock news broadcast gave a few seconds of footage to introduce it.
Huang Ze naturally received a lot of calls one after another.
They all invite me to go back and do something about cultural output, give lectures to promote Eastern culture, etc.
Huang Ze had spent quite some time in the United States and wanted to go back for a visit, so he didn't refuse.
Of course, returning to China does not mean going to the capital first.
But Shanghai.
After all, "Mulan" was produced by the branch in Shanghai, so naturally I have to give a commendation when I return.
However, when Huang Ze was sitting on the flight back to China, he started to worry about the branch of Xinghai Animation in Shanghai.
3D computer animation is the trend.
By the 21st century, there is not much market for this kind of ink-and-wash animation.
Even the behind-the-scenes staff of "The Lion King" back then have fallen into a bad situation. They will definitely not be able to hold on even if they force themselves to do so.
Therefore, even though this group of people has just achieved such great results for the company and made huge profits for the company, the transformation still needs to be carried out.
It's just that 3D animation is more of a programmer's thing.
It is really too much to ask people in their fifties or sixties to learn computers.
After thinking it over again and again, Huang Ze came to a preliminary decision.
Those who are older can continue to draw the TV version of "Lilo & Stitch".
Young Unity Transformation 3D Computer Animation.
If you understand it, you must execute it; if you don’t understand it, you must execute it.
If you don't want to, you'll have to send talent to other companies.
Considering that "Mulan" has achieved such great success, it won't be difficult for some of them to find jobs again.
Even if they are not employed, the average employee should be earning 200,000 or 300,000 yuan by now, relying on the company salary and bonuses that I give them, which are several times more than those of ordinary Shanghainese people.
The utmost benevolence and righteousness.
“Although it still seems a bit cruel.”
Huang Ze shook his head.
There was nothing he could do.
He can support the older ones until they retire, but as for the younger ones, he cannot support them forever even though he knows that computer animation is the future! (End of this chapter)
