"Mr. Xia, you are still very knowledgeable and took the lead in taking 'Lu Feng'. Otherwise, you would have been snatched away by someone else now." Huang Baiming called and said to Xia Tian with a smile.

When summer proposed to film "The Legend of the Five Billion Inspector Lei Luo", "The Lame" had not yet been released, and no one knew that the hero film could be sold for money. Therefore, he was a little worried at the time, worried that it would lose money when filming.

However, with "The Lame" now achieving a box office of 46 million Hong Kong dollars, as long as you are not stupid, anyone can see the box office potential of the hero film. The commercial value of this theme is no less than that of zombie films and hero films, and it is very likely to make a lot of money. Therefore, major film companies in Hong Kong are now rushing to film hero films.

However, Tianxia Pictures and Xinyi City have already taken the lead and filmed "The Legend of the Five Million Inspector Lei Luo" half a month ahead of schedule. This move has attracted the audience's attention.

Since its establishment, the movies launched by Tianxia Pictures have been well received and popular. In the past few years, New Art City also had a flag that "produced by New Art City, it must be a fine product", so fans are very looking forward to this movie.

If it was released at the same time, other companies' hero films had no capital to compete with it at all. And if "The Legend of the Five Billion Inspector Lei Luo" was released earlier than them, then they would not want to get high box offices.

Because a large group of viewers do not watch movies often, they can only watch some hot movies with the crowd. After watching them, they may not enter the theater for a month or two or even half a year.

Therefore, a hot movie will drain the box office potential of the market. Movies released after it will be unable to continue to achieve high box office due to the box office potential.

Just like when "The Mermaid" was released last year, it became a box office hit, achieving an unprecedented box office of 3.4 billion yuan. After it, the mainland film market fell into a low period of six months.

Therefore, major film companies are now rushing to film heroic films, hoping to be released before "The Legend of Lei Luo". At least it can achieve a little box office. Because of hasty work, the quality of these movies is naturally not satisfactory, and they will definitely not achieve any high box office at that time.

In general, Tianxia Pictures and Xinyi City made a profit this time. As the boss of Xinyi City, Huang Baiming certainly has to thank Xia Tian for his support.

...

"Huang Sheng, don't be polite, let's help each other." Xia Tian smiled, "But I still underestimated their greed and even snatched Han Sen, Lan Gang, and Yan Xiong away, making me want to make another hero film."

"Mr. Xia, don't you worry, there are three big black stick families left." Huang Baiming said with a smile, "I don't dare to touch their small companies, don't you dare to touch them?"

"That's right." Xia Tian smiled.

Although the three major families of Black Sticks have become tomorrow's yellow flowers under the attack of the Hong Kong police, and their strength has greatly declined, not everyone can afford it.

Even Mai Daoxiong, who has always been lawless, had to apologize to Wu Xihao who was in prison at the opening of the movie when filming "Lame Hao" in his previous life to avoid being shot and shot in the movie. However, these black stick families could not shock Xia Tian. In the face of absolute strength, all black x will be nothing more than paper tigers!

"Mr. Xia, do you intend to shoot the three major families of Black Sticks?" Huang Baiming asked with a smile.

While everyone is afraid to film the three major families at this moment, they can do it first. I believe that with "The Lame" as the foundation, the audience will like this kind of movie.

"Do you take pictures of three big families?" Xia Tian shook his head when he heard this, "No need."

Like Cuohao, the three major families of Hei Bang basically started their careers. If they were filmed, the stories would be the same and they would not be fresh.

Just like in his previous life, Hong Kong filmmakers also brought the story of Ma Xizhen and Ma Xiru brothers, one of the four major families, to the screen. Although the movie was completed well, the box office was only about 10 million Hong Kong dollars. Compared with the 38 million Hong Kong dollars of "The Lame", it is really far behind.

So in Xia Tian's view, it is impossible to achieve a high box office after filming stories from three major families. It is better to film some other themes, such as Du Qifeng's "The Years of Dragon City", which tells the internal power struggle of the Black X Association; or like "The Strange Case of Three Wolves", combining strange case films with hero films, perhaps a little fresh.

"Why, Mr. Xia, you don't make any money?" Huang Baiming asked in surprise when he heard this.

Now anyone can see that the hero film must have a high box office. However, Xia Tian seemed to have little interest in it, which made him a little confused.

"It's not that you don't make money, but that heroic films are released in large numbers, and the audience will always have a period of fatigue. Wait for at least half a year or a year, and wait for the audience's fatigue to pass, and then release the same type of movies, which is almost the same." Xia Tian said to Huang Baiming.

...

Why does Hollywood's top-notch movie sequel release only after two or three years? It is to avoid the audience's aesthetic fatigue.

Therefore, even if it is a big Marvel movie, it will not be more than three movies released in the same year. Moreover, the types of the three movies are different.

For example, "Guardians of the Galaxy 2" released in May 17 is a cosmic science fiction theme; "Spider-Man: Returning to School Day" released in July is a youth campus theme; "Thor 3: Ragnarok" released in November is a magical epic theme.

Therefore, although it is also a superhero movie, due to the different theme settings, it can also bring different viewing experiences to the audience.

"If you shoot again in half a year, the popularity will have passed long ago. Can you still achieve a high box office?" Huang Baiming said quickly when he heard Xia Tian say this.

The most important thing now is to take advantage of the popularity of "Lame Hao". If you wait for the first half of the year, the daylily will be cold.

"Huang Sheng, do we still have to take advantage of the popularity? Shouldn't we lead the trend?" Xia Tian said with a smile when he heard this.

With his current status, there is no need to gain popularity.

When Huang Baiming heard him say this, he felt ashamed.

Once upon a time, he was also a trend-leading person. "Best Partner" was the first real blockbuster in Hong Kong, and since then it has led the craze of urban action blockbusters; "Happy Ghost" series created the youth campus comedy theme; "Chasing Girls" created the romantic comedy theme...

But now, he has fallen to the point of taking advantage of other filmmakers, which is really a failure.

"Mr. Xia, you are right. I am a little eager for quick success and instant benefits, which makes you laugh." Huang Baiming said ashamed.

"It's okay, Huang Sheng, don't mind." Xia Tian comforted, "By the way, our company will send someone to Venice in two days. Do you want to travel with you?"

"Okay, I'm just asking for it." Huang Baiming smiled.
