My singer girlfriend is super fierce

The film "Kung Fu Panda" was led by Fang Long, with the script written by Ye Zhiqiu, and distributed by the American company "DreamWorks Animation".

When this project was first established, Ye Zhiqiu had some minor disagreements with "Animation DreamWorks", and eventually the two parties signed a "betting agreement".

The global box office is limited to US$3 million. If it exceeds this limit, Ye Zhiqiu will get a higher share. If it is less than this, he will voluntarily give up part of the profits.

Now that the film has been completed, "Animation DreamWorks" has also started a series of operations such as publicity and online scheduling.

It has to be said that as an old animation company established more than 20 years ago, although it has suffered consecutive losses in the past two years, the foundation of "Animation DreamWorks" is still there. They are also very concerned about "Kung Fu Panda" and quickly determined the official release time of August 8.

At the same time, publicity and promotion activities are also in full swing.

However, this is a small- to medium-cost animation after all. Although the image of the cute "panda" is a household name, it is a brand new IP started from scratch after all, and cannot be compared with world-renowned IPs like Disney and Pixar.

But low-budget films also have their own ways of playing. On the one hand, the distributor is cooperating with the only three zoos in the United States that have pandas to carry out joint promotions.

On the other hand, a wonderful trailer was released. Elements such as pandas, kung fu, and mysterious oriental culture attracted a lot of attention in various media and on the Internet, whetting the audience's appetite in advance.

Of course, the distributor has not forgotten Van Loon, the winner of the Oscar Lifetime Achievement Award. Van Loon is not only one of the investors, he also voiced the character of "Golden Monkey" in the movie, so he will naturally cooperate vigorously in the promotion.

On this side, Ye Zhiqiu, who was filming in a rural area in Northeast China, also received a call from Fang Long.

"At yesterday's media conference, the trailer was played and the response was quite enthusiastic. Today, most of the press releases from major media outlets were positive, so the audience's expectations should be quite high."

On the phone, Fang Long's tone was very excited, but also a little regretful.

"But it's a pity that you're not here, otherwise the atmosphere would be more lively if you sang a song on the spot, and it would be considered a linkage between the film and television and music circles."

Ye Zhiqiu said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Brother Long."

"I can't help it. My crew is in the crucial filming stage and I can't leave. But with you, Brother Long, in charge, we will definitely be the best."

Fang Long laughed and said, "You are the only one who talks a lot."

"But." Fang Long changed the subject and asked, "Why do I feel like you're not worried at all? You have signed a bet agreement with DreamWorks Animation. If the box office of this movie is less than $3 million, your share will be greatly reduced."

"To be honest, although the media gave a good review of the trailer, it's hard to judge based on just one look. I've been filming for so many years, and I still have no idea how much I'll get at the box office in the end."

Ye Zhiqiu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Brother Long, I think it will work this time."

"I sent a team of key members from my animation studio to work with them. They all said that the quality of the film is quite high, and with the good plot, it should be able to attract quite a few viewers."

Ye Zhiqiu’s confidence did not come out of thin air. On the one hand, it came from the evaluation of the employees of the “Shiguangzhiqiu” animation studio who personally participated in the project production.

On the other hand, he knew that the first "Kung Fu Panda" movie had grossed over $6 million worldwide, and most of it came from North America and international box office, which showed that the audience still loved it very much.
