The "Fengshen Trilogy" has finally received good news. The first one has passed the review and is expected to be released in the summer season.

After many years, the solar term movie "The Trilogy of the Gods" has finally returned to work hard. It is no longer a fixed-time poster tool, as well as a real and virtual pigeon spirit.

The reason why the "Fengshen Trilogy" has been delayed for five years is still worth looking forward to.

One is because director Urshan, he may be the best Chinese director who makes fantasy movies. "Painted Skin 2" and "Looking for Dragons" have received rave reviews. The magnificent settings and fascinating stories in the film are all full of imagination.

The second is because of the concept of the universe of the gods, the characters such as Nezha, Jiang Ziya, Yang Jian, Huang Feihu, Ji Fa, Lei Zhenzi, Shen Gongbao, Daji and other characters in "The Gods" are enough to accommodate the layout of a universe.

In addition to these, Jiang Ziya enthroned eight tribes of 365 righteous gods.

There are many familiar Three Mountains and Five Mountains, Thirty-six Stars of Tiangang, Seventy-two Stars of Earth Demons and Four Heavenly Kings.

There are still bizarre creative materials that only Chinese can do well, because foreigners lack cultural empathy and can be regarded as part of cultural output.

If Urshan's "Trilogy of the Gods" is successful, then the perfection of the Journey to the West universe, the Shanhai Jing Universe, the Ancient Mythical Universe, the Baolian Lantern Universe, the Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, etc. will also become just around the corner.

With "The Investiture of the Gods" as the foundation and an all-star lineup, "The Investiture of the Gods" does not lack popularity and mass base.

It was just that "The Trilogy of the Gods" was filmed in three consecutive films, with an investment of 3 billion yuan, and it was backlogged for three years, and the cost would only rise again.

According to the three-fold cost theory, the box office of "The Trilogy of the Gods" must reach more than 9 billion to barely make a profit, which is difficult to achieve.

The only domestic series of movies with a total box office of 9 billion yuan is the "Changjin Lake" series, with a total of 9.824 billion yuan, even the "Detective Chinatown" series failed to achieve this achievement.

Of course, the movie's revenue is more than just box office.

The Trilogy of the Investiture of the Gods can also sell online playback rights, introduce advertising investment, sell peripheral products, or sell shares, and carry out financial securitization of movies.

But in this way, the possibility of "The Investiture of the Gods Trilogy" is relatively high, but if you do not do this, you will only rely on box office to make a profit, and cash flow will be easily cut off, because box office sharing is generally based on years as time units.

The summer season can accommodate movies above 3 billion.

For example, "Wolf Warrior 2" with 5.694 billion, "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World", "3.11 billion, "The Eight Hundred", "The Lonely Moon" with 3.102 billion, and "I Am Not a God of Medicine" with 3.1 billion.

But the summer season is not a one-on-one statement. The above movies have rivals at the same time, but they all survived.The opponents in "The Investiture of the Gods" are not weak.

The ones competing with "The Investiture of the Gods" at that time may be Shen Teng's "The Super Family" and Wu Jing's "The Megdolite 2".

This is another head-on battle between the six middle-aged generations. The battle between Shen Teng and Wu Jing during the Spring Festival is 4.1 billion and 3.5 billion.

When Huang Bo, Shen Teng and Wu Jing are the three-pointers in the summer, or the two-person or the ones are the only ones, we will wait and see, especially Huang Bo, who urgently needs a movie to prove his box office appeal.

Huang Bo is gradually losing the halo of the first 5 billion actor and the six Middle Ages in recent years.

His high-box movies all have shadows from other Mesozoics, such as Wang Baoqiang in "A Good Show" and Shen Teng in "Crazy Alien".

He himself had a monoclonal antibody "The Man Catched by Light" with a box office of 70 million, "Win the Championship" had an 836 million yuan, and "Mozart in Outer Space" had an 223 million yuan, and the rest were platter movies like "My XX and Me".

Compared with Mr. Shen Teng, who has a box office of 30 billion and Mr. Shen Teng with 29.4 billion, Huang Bo's personal cumulative box office results are not ideal.

From the beginning of surpassing and approaching, the gap is getting bigger and bigger now, Huang Bo’s six middle-aged generations are somewhat unworthy of their names, and they are more like giants who are grouping together.

Even the newly launched TV series "The Right Way to Open Life" did not arouse a splash, but instead encountered a 4.5-point failure and a lot of bad reviews about his acting skills.

Besides, the finished film of "The Trilogy of the Gods" cannot ensure that it is foolproof and high-quality.

The only trailer released gives people the texture of online games. The colorful special effects are not icing on the cake, but the 50 cents special effects of domestic dramas are visual.

The story follows "The Romance of the Gods" and will not change much. After several years of special effects, I wonder if there will be any progress and whether the industrial texture can be achieved like "The Wandering Earth 2".

After all, after watching "The Wandering Earth 2", mainland audiences have improved their vision, cognition and aesthetics, and they cannot tolerate false special effects like "Shanghai Fortress" unless there is encouragement.

The Investiture of the Gods Trilogy is unstable, and the other two movies also have different problems.

The starring of "The Super Family" is Allen, and the amount of content is a problem. After all, there are many promotional operations such as Happy Twist and Happy Twist actors selling dog meat under the guise of sheep.

Putting Shen Teng's signboard and doing things to deceive the audience, such as "Warm Hug", "The Hotel without Settings", and "Li Cha's Aunt".

It would be fine if "The Super Family" itself is good, but if it is not good, Shen Teng has few scenes, which will definitely lead to a situation where he will lose money.

But according to Chang Yuan's three years, he has contributed a bad movie of about 4 points every year, but the box office is between 300 million and 800 million yuan.Judging from the situation, as long as the "Super Family" score is above 4 points, the box office will probably not be low.

"Warm Hug" brings Shen Teng with a box office of 800 million, "Hello, Brother" and "Li Mao Playing the Prince" brings Ma Li with a box office of 500 million and 400 million each, and "Desperate Husband" Changyuan's monoclonal antibody with a box office of 300 million.

It can be seen that you choose a good schedule and provide a good promotion.

There are one or two well-known actors in the film, and then some sketch-style jokes, the box office of a comedy movie can easily exceed 100 million.

I don’t know if it is said that this is the large market capacity of the mainland film market, or Feng Xiaogang’s “garbage theory”, or the sorrow of domestic films, the abnormal wind of bad money driving out good money has come back.

Similarly, the quality of "Megalodon 2" is also worrying.

As a popcorn movie, the rating of "Megalodon" is only 5.7. Although the sequel has become a director, its reputation is hard to say.

The starring of "Megalodon 2" was replaced by Li Bingbing to Wu Jing, and the audience would only put it under the microscope to watch it. Anything that the score was not satisfactory would be sarcastic.

What failed to enter Hollywood, the ability to resist box office is blown out, you can't make money without filming the main theme, etc. You can compare the 1.104 billion "Climber" horizontally.

However, there is one thing to be sure.

Because of the Spring Festival period, the total annual box office in 2023 has reached 12.2 billion, nearly one-half of the entire year last year.

In addition to the May Day holiday, the summer holiday is in full swing, and the National Day holiday is unstoppable. This year's total box office should return to the level of 50 billion in 2017, and domestic films have finally recovered.
