1084. As expected

In terms of reputation, the amazing premiere of "Infernal Affairs" in North America has passed.

Although the box office and attendance rate are not ideal.

But the reputation is as good as ever.

It can be said that it perfectly interprets what it means, and it is so popular but not so popular!

The box office of more than one million US dollars on the first day.

Cao Meng was completely confused.

Ah Li was also confused.

If the previous praises and those Hollywood film companies snatch adapted scripts and make them ecstatic, then at this moment, it is capital irony.

Just as Cao Meng knew it, he also understood that at the beginning, Hollywood film companies competed for the right to adapt, just for the script, not the movie itself.

If the movie itself is already very good and has unlimited box office potential, will they still be so eager to buy the adaptation rights?

Obviously not.

That is to say, at the beginning, these Hollywood film companies saw that the script story of "Infernal Affairs" is very suitable for adaptation, but the Chinese version of "Infernal Affairs" is only suitable for Chinese audiences, not North American audiences.

I can't adapt to the environment.

As for the critics and the media, it is even more ironic.

What group of film critics are?

To put it bluntly, most of the time, the more miserable the audience scolds, the more optimistic the film critics are.

Because film critics need to be stylish, unless some specific movies are well-known and popular classic movies, most of the time, film critics are actually separated from ordinary audiences.

The news that the box office of "Infernal Affairs" on the first day was only more than one million US dollars was reported back to China.

It was also an uproar.

However, for the media, there is no difference.

Many media even prepared two manuscripts, one sold out and the other failed.

What about now?

Although the first-day box office of more than one million US dollars is already good for the performance of Chinese films in North America, it also depends on what kind of movie it is.

"Infernal Affairs" Ali Media has invested so much in publicity that such a box office cannot even deduct the promotion and distribution expenses.

That was naturally a failure.

"The North American premiere of "Infernal Affairs" is so popular!"

"Ali Media's first globalization strategy failed, and the box office of "Infernal Affairs" in the North American market was cold!"

"Infernal Affairs" was released in North America yesterday, with a box office of only more than one million on the first day!"

"Ali Media's globalization strategy has been cold, and the classic Hong Kong film "Infernal Affairs" in North America is not suitable for the local environment, and the audience said they can't understand it!"

"Infernal Affairs" staged a Waterloo, and many Hollywood film companies robbed the script adaptation rights, but they only looked at the script!"

"Wang Yifan is unpredictable and refuses North American propaganda, or predicts in advance that the journey to North America in "Infernal Affairs" is not going well!"

For a time, the news that "Infernal Affairs" of North America was overwhelming.

Ali Media once again became the background board for failure.

Originally, a domestic movie that was lost overseas was a common occurrence, and it was not surprising. Logically speaking, it would not have been widely reported by so many media.

But "Infernal Affairs" is different.

First of all, "Infernal Affairs" is in the country, with a total of one billion in five days.

It can be said that it is definitely a masterpiece that sells a lot.

Moreover, the reputation and box office are all the way, and up to now, the ratings on the audio-visual website are still high.

It can be regarded as one of the best-reputable movies in recent years.

The key is the media and film critics are also unanimously optimistic.

Such movies naturally attract much attention.

In addition, the previous reputation of Ali Media in North America has proved that this movie has been favored by all parties.

As a result, there was a box office Waterloo.

"Infernal Affairs" was released in North America and the box office was completely disappointing.

Ali Media's big data film strategy has just failed, but it once again launched a larger film globalization strategy.

Then, there is still a familiar taste and a familiar recipe.

As usual, the slogans were shouted loudly, but the result was a mess.

Although the failure of "Infernal Affairs" cannot prove that Ali Media's film globalization strategy failed.

After all, the failure of the movie and promotion can only be one of the decisive factors, not all.

What really determines the success or failure of a movie is the movie itself.

But why, this time Ali Media is too high-profile. Well, Ali Media has always been extremely high-profile.

When doing things with high profile, you either don’t do it or you just want to be the first.

In the previous film big data strategy, Ali Media shouted the slogan to subvert the film and television industry.

Then?

It's cold right away.

Then, Chinacoin, which spent tens of billions of yuan, acquired the world's second largest theater chain, Imperial Cinema.

He also called out the strategy of globalization of films, and wanted to be a bridge for the export of Chinese films to the outside world.

We must help Chinese movies go abroad.

But what is the result?

"Infernal Affairs" failed!

I have to say that Ali is also in bad luck.

To be honest, Ali Media’s acquisition of Imperial Cinemas has indeed opened up overseas distribution channels.

But Ali Media forgot one thing.

In fact, domestic movies are not saying that they have not tried to make regular distributions in North America, nor do they say that every Hollywood giant is perfunctory.

In fact, Hollywood giants may charge high distribution fees for Chinese movies, but they are still very professional in promoting and distributing.

But what's the result?

Why still not?

Is it really because of the issue channel?

Everyone knows that the distribution channel is monopolized by several major Hollywood giants.

Everyone knows that domestic movies will definitely be severely slaughtered when they are released in North America, but one thing is ignored, that is, it is the same truth around the world.

Hollywood movies will be released in China, and they will also be severely slaughtered.

But what's the result?

The result is completely different.

Domestic movies, released in North America, actually performed well, but they were only a few.

In fact, everyone knows that the real reason is not the distribution channel. The distribution channel just says that even if the movies are sold at the top, they actually won’t get much profit.

However, the performance of the movie is not caused by the insufficient distribution channels.

But because domestic movies are not enough to conquer North American audiences.

Hollywood movies are not something that can be popular from the beginning.

In fact, it was also difficult to play local movies around the world in early Hollywood movies.

The reason why Hollywood movies can kill the world is because their years of hard work has made everyone begin to promote the values ​​and cultures they have no sense of exclusion.

As a result, Hollywood movies began to be accepted by the audience.

So Hollywood movies can kill everyone.

How many years have Chinese movies been?

Even if the local government is not doing well, I just want to develop towards globalization.

Even Wang Yifan, to be honest, the previous movies were able to sell well in North America because those movies themselves do not have too many cultural differences.

All the selected items are more universal.

Let’s take a look at what themes are those movies that can sell in North America.
