Chapter 593 Lotus Lantern? (seeking subscription)
Cookies did it!
With the attitude of an absolute dark horse that is not expected by others, he limped across the finish line and became the champion of this horse racing meeting.
This championship is hard-won.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Biscuit completely ignored his injuries in order to cross the line in the end. The price he paid for this is very likely that his hind leg was completely scrapped.
certainly!
Biscuit, who paid such a heavy price, finally got his wish and became a hero in the eyes of the horse people and even the audience.
"Good good good good!"
As the screening of the short film ended, Gu Miao stood up and clapped her hands with a smile on her face.
The same goes for everyone else.
After the applause gradually subsided, Gu Miao pulled Du Hao and asked, "How long is the rough cut version of the movie?"
"About 90 minutes!"
"That's okay..."
Gu Miao nodded first, and then asked, "When will I be able to see this movie in theaters?"
"Not so sure."
Du Hao's expression was a little hesitant, because the schedule is usually something that is considered after the examination and obtaining the dragon badge.
But now the film has not finished the final stage, has not yet been submitted for review, and has not received the dragon mark, so it is a bit too early to think about these.
certainly!
He has actually thought about this question.
If it is suitable, mid-June or even late June, which is when the summer vacation begins, is actually a good time.
"Is it mid-to-late June?"
Gu Miao thought about it seriously, and seemed to be relieved: "It doesn't matter, the animation "The Prince of Tennis" should not premiere until early July."
"what?"
Du Hao scratched his forehead, full of doubts.
If he remembers correctly, the animation "The Prince of Tennis" should be a TV animation, right?
TV animation and animated film are divided into big screen and small screen, which belong to two completely different tracks. Will there be conflicts between these two works?
"I didn't mean that."
"I'm just worried that it will be difficult to arrange publicity and promotion resources at that time. After all, it is impossible for us to divide one advertising space into two for use."
After explaining what she was worried about, Gu Miao seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said, "But when it comes to competitors..."
There is a big enemy this summer!
Plum Anime!
Probably seeing the achievements of Wanbao Animation in the film market, many domestic counterparts have become interested in animated films.
But interest is interest.
The investment scale and risk of animation films far exceed that of TV animation. Like ordinary small workshops and small companies, even if they are tempted, they dare not try it rashly.
But Plum Blossom Anime is different.
As the national comic industry, it is rare that there is no shortage of money to be taken advantage of, and Meihua Animation is definitely the best in national comics in terms of financial resources.
Therefore.
After learning that the field of animated films is promising, they quickly launched their own animated film projects.
Because of the excellent secrecy work, Gu Miao hadn't heard before that Meihua Animation was actually working on some animation movies.
certainly!
Although Gu Miao didn't know what the animation film of Plum Blossom Animation would be like, but he found out through his relationship that the project was established earlier than "Ride the Horse".
More precisely...
As early as January of this year, when Wanbao’s new works gathered together to fight. Plum Blossom Animation quietly set up an animation film project.
"I haven't found out what the film will look like. But according to Comrade Wasp, it should be adapted from Chinese myths and legends."
"Myths and legends?"
"right!"
Gu Miao said firmly: "If there is no accident, there is a high probability that it is adapted from the story of Chen Xiang saving his mother and smashing Huashan Mountain with a magic ax."
"Lotus Lantern?"
Du Hao's expression changed instantly.
The story of Chen Xiang splitting the mountain to save his mother is widely spread among the people.
Before that, "Lotus Lantern" was also adapted into a live-action film and television drama, broadcast on CCTV and other TV platforms, and achieved good ratings.
With this basis, as long as the animation is not so outrageously modified and the quality of the completion is slightly higher, then this movie has a great inherent advantage.
no way!
Although the animation "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" is famous in terms of fame, it is also a super big IP that is well-known to everyone, and its popularity is not much worse than "Lotus Lantern".
But the influence of the two is not at the same level at all!
Pleasant Goat has a new movie, maybe only children will be particularly interested.
But if you hear that "Lotus Lantern" has an animated movie, I'm afraid not only children, but even many adults will be interested.
This is where the gap lies!
If it is an ordinary animation movie, then Du Hao is probably worthy of him. After all, the words "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" are a proper gold-lettered signboard.
But if it is "Lotus Lantern"...
"Do you want to avoid the limelight?"
Du Hao was discouraged, and proposed to avoid this animated film "Lotus Lantern", which was likely to become a classic, and release it on a different schedule.
Gu Miao deeply agrees.
This is not a question of counseling or not, but a question of whether it is worth it.
Take the theatrical version of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" to head-to-head with a movie like "Lotus Lantern". Regardless of the final result, Wanbao will lose anyway.
If you win.
Then the audience will complain, saying that the current Guoman is completely hopeless. Even animations such as "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" can be popular, but no one cares about the real masterpieces.
If you lose.
Then it will be even worse to be sprayed...
Since this is the case, why should it be with "Lotus Lantern"? From a profit point of view, this is completely a thankless thing.
Based on this prerequisite.
Gu Miao very much agrees with Du Hao's idea, it's best to avoid it if he can avoid it. The big deal is to let go of the summer vacation, and it can be released in advance or delayed.
It is not advisable to postpone the release.
After all, in the second half of the year, Du Hao will make a big movie with the theme of the Year of the Goat. If it is postponed, it may be too late by then.
Then it can only be released in advance!
"Complete the post-production as soon as possible. If it is submitted for review, I will ask someone to help urge it, and try to win the dragon mark as soon as possible."
Gu Miao made arrangements: "It must be released in early June, and we won't crash with "Lotus Lantern" during the summer vacation."
"Ok, I see."
Du Hao nodded, and quickly realized the urgency and importance of this matter.
even though…
Now no one knows, what is the quality of the "Lotus Lantern" film produced by Plum Blossom Animation, and whether it is worthy of this IP?
But everything is looking for the worst.
What if the other party plays supernaturally, and this is a high-quality animated movie? After all, with the name "Lotus Lantern", one must respect it.
Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just in case!
The title of the movie "Lotus Lantern" is really worrying. Instead of praying for the other party to perform abnormally, it is better to prepare for the worst in advance.
Fortunately, there was time.
It took half a month to complete the remaining post-production. Although the construction period was a bit tight, it was always possible to work overtime.
