The technology in this world is very advanced, and many large-cost special effects can be produced very quickly, which has also shortened the production cycle of many large-cost movies.

Therefore, many big-budget movies can be shot in just two or three months.

Even if filming starts now, it will be released in July in time.

A movie like "Crazy Stone" with three no-names: no unknown director (screenwriter), no stars, and no big production. It is simply a fantasy to compete with those big-budget movies.

Just because of its popularity, it can attract a large number of viewers to pay for it.

And even if it is released in theaters in July, there won't be many film schedules.

Movies with a large audience will naturally be played in movie theaters 24 hours a day, while movies with a small audience will naturally be played less frequently.

This is called watching the dishes.

There is no way, the market is like this. Even if your movie is produced by Tianming and you can't make money, other theaters will not help you at a loss.

This is not to say that there are no successful cases of "Three No Movies", but such examples are indeed too few and far between. Theaters are not gamblers, so naturally they will not give too much trust.

Even if we wait until July to go online, it will only be arranged in some garbage slots during the depressed period, such as midnight, eight o'clock in the morning, eleven o'clock at noon... During these times, there will be few people watching, and the ticket prices will be very low. Relatively cheap.

Bai Qianqu pondered.

Since the theaters can't get a good film schedule, it might as well not go to the theaters.

After all, when it is played in cinemas, the theater chain will also take a commission, and this commission ratio may even be as high as 50%.

Originally, a low-budget movie might not necessarily earn much at the box office, but now half of it was diverted, even Bai Qianqu was unhappy.

Moreover, if the timing of the filming is not good, there is a high probability that the movie will die suddenly.

When Cao Dawei saw Bai Qianqu not talking for a long time, he thought he was angry, so he said cautiously: "The movie has been filmed anyway, and it won't work if it doesn't be released. Now I can only bite the bullet and give it a try, in case the movie gets bad reputation." Did it explode?"

Bai Qianqu didn't say anything when he heard this.

There are many movies that want to make a counterattack and use their small skills to make a big difference, but most of them die on the road, and only a few of them can succeed.

Although Bai Qianqu is very confident in the quality of "Crazy Stone", it is still too vague to leave everything to luck.

In the original world, "Crazy Stone" was indeed a model of counterattack, but after all, the place has changed now.

During the same period, they were all big movies with hundreds of millions of investments, and featured star actors and actresses!

The most important thing is - their movies are not bad either!

Don't forget, the status of screenwriters in this world is very high, and there is no "star-centered system"!

In other words, they are all powerful!

Have strength! rich!

The main reason why "Crazy Stone" was able to counterattack was because there were basically no big movies released at the same time. In the same time period, there was not a single hit movie!

That’s why it stands out!

If you had fifty yuan in your hand, would you go to see a luxury all-star movie, or would you go to see a grassroots, low-budget movie?

I believe most people’s choice is luxury movies.

Therefore, Bai Qianqu did not dare to bet that no big movie would be released in July.

What's more, Cao Dawei also said just now that July is the summer vacation period, how can there be no big movies?

Going directly to theaters is too risky.

Bai Qianqu frowned with regret.

He really had never thought about the release channel carefully before. When he was making the movie, he was focused on learning knowledge and training actors, and did not fully think about what happened next.

Fortunately, Cao Dawei has brought it up now, and there is still a chance to make amends.

He immediately made several conclusions in his mind:

First of all, you absolutely cannot go to theaters in July! It's really irrational to compete with those luxury movies.

Secondly, the movie must be released as soon as possible, and a more suitable replacement method must be found.

Bai Qianqu frowned and looked at Cao Dawei and asked, "Besides theaters, are there any other ways to release movies?"

Cao Dawei blurted out: "Of course, in addition to showing it in theaters, it can also be launched on online platforms, that is, online movies."

Bai Qianqu's eyes suddenly lit up!

Yes, why didn't he think of this?

There are so many online video platforms now, and movies can be released on these platforms!

Not only are the review standards low, convenient and fast, but the fees charged by these platforms are also much lower!

The most important thing is that those big movies must be released in theaters for a period of time before being released on online platforms.

This time difference is exactly what Bai Qianqu wants most!

Bai Qianqu immediately made the decision: "We won't go to theaters! We will go to online movies!"

Cao Dawei was very surprised: "A big online movie?!"

He naturally knows that many low-cost movies are released through online movies, and they can indeed make some money.

It's just that compared to theaters, big online movies make very little money.

After all, the ticket price for a trip to the cinema starts at 50 yuan, while a viewing of a major online movie only costs 5 yuan, and members can even watch it for free.

At least ten people need to come to watch your online movie to make it the same as a movie in a theater.

Just like that, how much money can you make?

If it breaks the sky, it’s only tens of millions.

You know, in theaters, if the box office is good, a few hundred million is nothing.

However, Cao Dawei did not have much resistance to Bai Qianqu's decision.

He knows the situation of their movie best now.

Going to a theater is really a narrow escape, so it would be more cost-effective to try your luck on an online film and television platform.

He even felt that Bai Qianqu's decision was quite wise and he did not blindly insist on going to the cinema.

Many newcomers who make movies feel that their movies are the best in the world and they must go to the cinema to show off their skills. However, 99% of them will be disappointed.

After such a comparison, Bai Qianqu’s choice is better!

Moreover, now this movie has been bought out by Bai Qianqu, which means that Bai Qianqu now has the final say on this movie, and he is responsible for whether it makes money or loses.

Naturally, Cao Dawei didn't have much psychological burden.

He nodded and said: "Indeed, the threshold for major online movies is relatively low. If we apply now, I will use my destiny to get it approved and released next month!"

In fact, even if Cao Dawei doesn't break the relationship, "Crazy Stone" can be released next month, which is a gap of more than ten days.

After all, "Crazy Stone" is nothing in the eyes of theaters, but among major online movies, it is still considered mid-level. After all, it requires an investment of more than three million yuan.
