Post-shadow Development Plan

So the AMC theater in New York once again became the focus of attention of the American entertainment circle.

The premiere of "Madoka" will kick off here.

When the theatrical version of "Xiaoyuan" was released, because the highest popularity of the drama has passed.

In addition, the movie is purely a fan-oriented work.

So while the movie did well at the box office, it didn't make waves overall.

On the contrary, it was broadcast on TV, because it was just in time for the 2011 Great Earthquake in Japan.

In the end, two episodes had to be suspended because they involved the destruction of the city.

This incident aroused heated discussions in the fan circle at the time, and it can be regarded as the biggest event that occurred in the Japanese ACG circle in the first half of that year.

But at that time, the popularity of "Madoka" had already risen.

At the very beginning, "Madoka" was not particularly favored by the production company SHAFT.

This can be seen from the fact that the TV version is full of various money-saving streams for new houses.

After all, at that time, the trend of adapting animation for new Japanese series had already formed, and this kind of original theme was not a favorite project of animation companies.

If it weren't for Xinfang's supervision, it would have been very difficult for the project "Xiaoyuan" to be established.

But for Jiufeng Entertainment and Seven Nights, "Xiaoyuan" is the most important project.

Whether it's production costs or publicity, it's more money to manage enough, not enough treatment that can be increased at any time.

This naturally makes "Madoka" fundamentally different from the tragic beginning that no one cares about in the original history.

The grand premiere of "Madoka" kicked off from the west of the sun.

Celebrities stepped onto the red carpet to create momentum for "Little Circle".

Even the Avengers team that was originally filming in Los Angeles rushed back to cheer for Jiufeng Entertainment's movie.

The top management of Jiufeng Entertainment and all its subsidiaries, regardless of whether they work in North America or not, rushed over at this time.

Everyone seems to want to collectively witness the success of this top production project of the company, hoping that it can really become a part of film history.

Where there are stars, there will never be a shortage of entertainment reporters and movie fans.

Hundreds of media reporters and photographers crowded the media area, and countless movie fans also surrounded the red carpet, trying to ask the stars for their autographs.

Although it is inferior to the Oscar ceremony in February, compared with the premieres of other Hollywood companies, this time "Madoka" can really be said to have achieved the ultimate in all aspects.

However, the premiere of "Xiaoyuan" was as lively as it was lively, and as grand as it was grand, but the people who came to participate did not come with a blessing attitude.

In the media area, Agrus, a reporter from "Premiere", watched the net red newcomer Yumi Sakuzuki walk on the red carpet. He first raised his head to take a photo, and then whispered with his colleagues next to him.

"The momentum Jiufeng created this time is really great."

The entertainment reporter of the "New York Post" on the side said sourly: "Just for this premiere, Jiufeng Entertainment spent 500 million US dollars, and this is not counting the cost of upgrading the IMAX hall of this movie theater before."

"Yes." Agrus nodded, "I heard that the IMAX theater of this AMC theater has become the IMAX theater with the best equipment and the largest number of viewers in North America."

"Hey, you know what?"

Another reporter also joined the discussion, and he said to the two mysteriously.

"I have a friend who works at Jiufeng Entertainment. It is said that as of last week, the cost of promotion and marketing of this film has reached nearly 1 million US dollars."

Agrus gasped: "Although I know this is a global publicity fee, it's too exaggerated."

Hundreds of millions of dollars were spent on publicity alone, and this is no longer an end that can be taken lightly if you have money.

Because it involves a series of issues such as profit calculation and tax avoidance, few film companies will announce their exact publicity and distribution fees.

But the entertainment reporters present were all old people who had been in the entertainment industry for a long time, so some approximate data could still be guessed.

Usually, the publicity and distribution cost of a first-tier big-budget movie is around $7000 million.

If it's a sequel, it's a little less.

After all, sequel movies have original popularity and popularity, which can reduce a lot of publicity costs.

But Jiufeng Entertainment's more than 1 million US dollars this time is really too exaggerated.

With such a big battle, can movies really make money?

This is the question of all the reporters present.

Agrus could not help admiring: "Even though Jiufeng Entertainment is still a second-tier company, it's really bigger than the Big Six."

"Hmph, it's just because I made a lot of money in the past two years."

A reporter from the "New York Post" sneered: "No one dares to invest so much money in a movie with a female protagonist. Once the movie fails, Jiufeng Entertainment will go bankrupt and be taken over by the parent company." Sell ​​it?"

"Maybe Kiryu Nanaya will quit Hollywood completely because of this." Another reporter added gloatingly, "I heard that he invested all his own money in this movie. I don't know if he will go to nightclubs to pay off his debts in the future."

"You don't like it?"

Of course Agrus could understand the sarcasm in these words.

The other party didn't answer, but instead asked: "Do you think a big-budget movie with only the heroine as the main character can be successful?"

Agrus and the others fell silent.
