Post-shadow Development Plan

But this time "Little Yuan" is different. The film critic forces headed by Roger Ebert actually approached Jiufeng Entertainment on their own initiative this time.

They expressed sincerely that they were willing to help Jiufeng Entertainment with the public relations of "Little Circle" during the awards season.

Of course, public relations fees are still required.

But getting film critics to take the initiative to do PR for a special effects movie is already a big deal.

You must know that what these old men hate the most is fantasy works.

In their view, this kind of unrealistic story can't show human nature at all, it's just pure fantasy.

So when Roger Ebert came to the door and expressed his willingness to contribute during the awards season.

People from Jiufeng Entertainment really almost thought that the other party had Stockholm Syndrome.

What is this?

Cursing, cursing, and scolding with emotion?

It can only be said that Roger Ebert really likes the movie "Little Circle".

So much so that he put aside his previous prejudice against Kiryu Nanaya, and planned to send this movie to the altar.

In fact, Roger Ebert's idea is very simple.

He believes that "Madoka" is a monument to the new era of commercial films.

It should become the weather vane leading the trend of commercial movies in the next decade.

Just like the "Titanic" back then.

Jiufeng Entertainment naturally didn't understand Roger Ebert's enthusiasm for "Little Circle".

But having such a well-known film critic to help with public relations is a great thing for "Madoka".

As for the possibility of Roger Ebert lying, Jiufeng Entertainment has never considered such a matter.

The word-of-mouth of a film critic is everything. If Roger Ebert cheats Jiufeng Entertainment, then his reputation in the field of film critics will be completely stink.

The consequences of such a loss are much more serious.

Therefore, with the help of Roger Ebert, Jiufeng Entertainment started the public relations plan for the North American Film Awards including the Oscars after entering December.

As a film director and producer, Qiye naturally has to personally escort her own children.

Roger Ebert was very influential at the Oscars though.

However, as an award with as many as 6000 judges, it is definitely not enough to rely on film critics alone.

However, "Madoka" has an advantage over other award-winning films, that is, this film is currently in hot theaters.

Numerous cases in the past have proved that whether a film is still being screened at the time of Oscar selection still has a great influence on the selection of some judges.

Because when people make choices, they always subconsciously choose the option that they are relatively familiar with.

This is why many Olympic films will choose to be released on a small scale at the end of the year.

The purpose is to impress the judges.

After winning the Oscars, these films will start to be released on a large scale, using the name of the Oscars to make profits.

At the very least, the large-scale release of these films will have to wait until the Oscar nominations are announced.

Because the filmmakers themselves know that their films do not meet the tastes of most audiences.

Those audiences who like to watch commercial films seldom enter the cinema because of the plot.

The only way is to use the name of Oscar to seduce.

This is why Qiye always said that Oscar has become a business.

Fortunately, "Madoka" doesn't need to be so troublesome.

It has aimed at the box office from the very beginning, and winning awards can only be regarded as a seasoning.

By mid-December, after nearly six weeks of screenings, the North American box office of "Madoka" had reached an astonishing $12 million.

This result is infinitely close to the North American record of US$6 million for "Titanic".

Almost everyone can be sure and certain of one thing.

At least in North America, there is no suspense that "Madoka" surpassed "Titanic".

As for the overseas box office other than North America, "Madoka" even raked in US$12.8 billion.

This result has already broken the 12-year record of 12.4 billion US dollars maintained by "Titanic", setting a new high in overseas box office history.

More importantly, when the two figures are added together, the amount of money attracted by "Little Circle" has reached 18.5 billion US dollars worldwide.

Facing the 18.42 billion record of "Titanic", it has already exceeded a little finger.

From this moment on, "Madoka" has become the upper limit of the box office in global film history, and other films have all become its pursuers.

Even many "Titanic" fans think that the slight advantage of nearly $ 800 million is not worth mentioning.

If counting statistical errors, the real box office data of "Little Circle" is likely to be lower than that of "Titanic".

Of course, these people's justifications are so weak.
