Ye Dazhong went to visit the movie theater by himself.
Zhao Ziluo walked into the conference hall and found that the production here was very interesting.
"Round table?" he said with a smile.
A stone round table, deliberately aged, with patterns carved on it.
Four chairs were placed around it, beautifully crafted. Some are lions, some are swords, and some are snakes.
Peter and a red-brown-haired woman had already sat down. Seeing him come in, the red-brown-haired woman smiled and said, "The ancestor of the zombie stream is here, should we chop off his head?"
As a rule, zombies cannot move unless they have their heads.
Peter was surprised: "Beheading the head will not look good. I think crucifixion to the heart will be good."
"Oh? Aren't you afraid of him pretending to be a corpse? This is the ancestor!"
Harelf laughed loudly: "Teacher Kong Fang, let me introduce you to Peter, who won the Saturn Award for Best Screenplay!"
"This is the gold medal screenwriter who has been nominated for five consecutive times - Ms. Athene Helen!!"
"The screenwriter of eight popular TV series with a rating of 8.5, including "The Winter Throne", "Pirates' Rules", "Dawn of the Dead" and "The Last Day"! Twenty-seven years in the industry!"
Helen smiled: "You don't have to remind me of my age. And you don't have to keep reminding me that I don't have a 9-point TV series."
She looked at Zhao Ziluo with envy: "Whether it's "The Beginning" or "The Walking Dead," Teacher Kong Fang's creativity is simply unmatched!"
"Peter and I wrote "House of Cards" together, but when it comes to creativity, none of us together can beat you!"
Zhao Ziluo sat down: "It's also a coincidence."
A flash of inspiration, of course by chance.
"Okay." Harelf clapped his hands, pointed at the notebook in front of everyone, and his face became serious.
"This year, everyone's TV series have achieved quite gratifying results, so there is no need to hold a 'criticism conference'."
Everyone, look at what you have in your hands.
Zhao Ziluo turned on the computer, and there was a clear data table on it.
Age, nationality, film type.
This time, all data from 16 to 60 years old are counted! ! Compared with the data seen last time, the increase is huge!
Moreover, 35 countries were counted at once!
It’s a massive amount of data!
"What do you think of Teacher Kong Fang?" Harelf asked proudly.
Zhao Ziluo was delighted after reading it and said with a smile: "The two billion dollars are not in vain."
Harelf nodded, and then spoke solemnly: "Now, the most popular hot word is zombie."
Peter affirmed: "There will definitely be a large number of zombie movies and TV shows in the future!"
Several people glanced at Zhao Ziluo involuntarily.
Do they want to follow this hot word? ?
Zhao Ziluo shook his head: "I have given Long Bao the responsibility to make the zombie film."
"To be honest, I don't think anyone can capture the essence of a zombie movie right now."
Without the baptism of Resident Evil, these people probably thought that zombie movies were just a group of zombies rushing over to eat people.
In the first part, he only took out two or three special zombies.
Classic monsters such as Lickers, Tyrants, and Train Worms have not yet appeared!
He analyzes it bit by bit.
"Season 1 and 2 of The Walking Dead are just to familiarize the audience with this world."
"Starting from the third season, I will reveal the truth about the origin of zombies!"
"There will be all kinds of mutated zombies by then!"
From then on, we officially entered the main line of Resident Evil!
It has to be said that although after Resident Evil 4, the main line began to deviate, it was not a duel between humans and zombies.
Instead, deeper settings have been added, such as “fungus master”.
It’s not finished until 6 seasons!
"Those who learn from me will live, those who are like me will die." He concluded: "Let them follow the trend. The more they follow the trend, the more they will know the gap."
After speaking, he took a sip of coffee.
The whole place was quiet.
Both Peter and Helen looked directly at him, as if they were looking at a monster!
"Gift crab..."
After a long time, Helen took a deep breath: "I thought "The Walking Dead" was the ultimate zombie movie that can be thought of at present..."
"I didn't expect that I just opened the magic box and heard the beginning of the chapter!"
Evolve zombies!
resident Evil!
Listen to these words!
She has begun to feel sorry for the followers.
Harelf was extremely happy.
Although other production teams will not form companies to shoot zombie dramas.
But the meat is still rotten in the pot!
"Okay, then we will temporarily ban zombie movie projects."
He said without hesitation: "We can look at the second hot word."
Everyone glanced at it and frowned.
Time travel.
It is also a popular word that Zhao Ziluo is famous for.
After thinking about it, Peter took the lead and said, "I don't recommend making any more movies like this."
Harelf tapped his fingers on the table: "Reason?"
"This is a work of inspiration! To write a script like this requires extremely powerful control from the screenwriter!"
"The difficulty level is high, the time is long, and... the subsequent script surgeons cannot save it, so the original screenwriter must be written from beginning to end!"
"It would kill the inspiration of a talented screenwriter!"
Harelf was noncommittal and shrugged: "Then there are no suitable hot words."
If you can't grasp the market, what's the use of Huoxing Data Network?
Zhao Ziluo suddenly said: "Where is the tenth hot word?"
A total of 20 hot word rankings are counted above.
Tenth place, neither better nor worse.
But...it's called "Fantasy"!
"The Golden Compass", "Game of Thrones", "Supernatural", "Harry Potter", "Lord of the Rings", etc. are all fantasy!
He couldn't help but raise his head and asked: "Why is it ranked so low?"
The other three were stunned.
Except for the top five, they won’t care about the hot words after that.
Let’s put it another way.
Many people think that writing a script based on hot words is fantasy.
Not to mention that this is what Netflix does on Earth. We can say "make programs according to market requirements."
Once you know what the audience wants, give them what you want! (For example, the filming of House of Cards captured the presidential election because of hot words. It was broadcast in 2013, an election year)
In 23 years on earth, web dramas created based on hot words can make hundreds of thousands of profits per person every year!
This is the horror of traffic!
Therefore, hot words with too low traffic will never be considered by them.
Capital will only choose the most profitable path! Because in their philosophy, if you make less money, you will lose money!
"It...is there a problem with its low ranking?" Helen asked doubtfully: "The times are changing with each passing day, and it is normal for everyone not to have much feeling for ancient fantasy."
Zhao Ziluo frowned: "What about you?"
"Do you have a dream in your heart that you can fly in the sky on a broomstick?"
"Can someone die suddenly with just one finger of the magic wand?"
"Of course there is...but isn't this unrealistic?"
Zhao Ziluo shook his head.
This is the foundation of culture!
It exists in the blood of every Westlander!
The people of the Western Continent love swords and magic just like the people of the East pursue immortality and immortality. Always in my heart.
“I need to see the statistics from the past year.”
Harelfu and the other two looked at each other, but still agreed to Zhao Ziluo's request.
Soon, all the data from last year was transmitted.
Last year’s Quanxing database was far less powerful. They only collected data on specific groups of people in developed countries at specific times.
But enough is enough.
"December...Fantasy No. 11," Harelph said.
Helen continued: "November, Fantasy No. 10."
“October, fantasy number nine.”
“September, fantasy number 11.”
As the months went by, everyone's eyes were surprised.
About ten people.
Fantasy’s ranking has been around ten all year long!
The highest is ninth place, the lowest is 12th place!
It is true that for hot words, you should choose the hottest and latest ones.
But... if there is a hot word that fluctuates around three numbers all year round, it is not that simple.
That's a gold mine!
Although it’s not too high, there is a regular crowd! You will definitely not lose money!
For a season-based TV series, this is perfect!
As soon as he finished reading, Peter immediately said: "It was from the year before last!"
Harelf immediately understood and made a phone call. Ten minutes later, the information from the previous year was sent over.
"House Crab..." Helen opened her mouth wide: "It's still around ten!"
"How can this be?"
When choosing a hot word to film, of course you should look for a hot word first.
Then two and three.
A hot word means uniqueness, and no one can compete with it in a few months!
By four or five, it is already the limit.
The fifth place represents that there are countless events and words that compete with it for popularity.
They are a company, and the terms below are all casually scanned, making it impossible to study them carefully.
"How did you find out?" Harelf looked at Zhao Ziluo in shock: "We have been looking for several years and still haven't found it!"
Zhao Ziluo expressed his thoughts, and then said: "I think this popularity should last for more than ten years."
"But there are no good magic shows on the market right now!"
There has only been one Game of Thrones released on earth in so many years!
Nowadays, most of Blue Star's magic dramas follow the route of knights and magicians.
A child born to common people is taken in as a disciple by a magician, then encounters various monsters, and finally kills the evil dragon.
Same, very low ratings!
"The road is still narrow."
"If swords and magic were introduced to the entire continent, plus strategy and war, this would be the world of swords and magic!"
He didn't say it to anyone else, but kept the thought to himself.
The Western Continent has this problem, and China still has it!
He would rather do a pilot project in China than let Xilu take the lead.
"Should we give it a try?" Helen was a little moved.
Harelf thought for a while and shook his head: "The investment is too big, and... we are ranked tenth, let's see again."
Looking at the popularity, if a fantasy film is really made, it will either become a blockbuster or be ignored by everyone.
There is no in-between option!
After chatting for a long time, no one was sure which hot word to use. Two hours later, Harelf dismissed the discussion.
After all, it is just a gathering of shareholders, and the discussion of hot words is to see if it can inspire inspiration.
If you really want to take a picture, you still have to watch it from the shareholders.
Zhao Ziluo did not go far.
Instead, he waited for Harelf to come down and then said: "I need to build a planet database in China."
"OK."
"Also... help me contact some big publishing houses."
Harelph was surprised: "What are you going to do?"
Zhao Ziluo smiled: "Nothing."
"I just wrote a few books and prepared them for publication."
"No problem, when will it be published?"
Zhao Ziluo thought for a while: "In half a year."
After leaving the building, he didn't plan to come back again.
Too far.
This year is the first time for shareholders to meet and chat. Who will have such leisure in the future?
But...this time he has a deeper understanding!
"If we want to get through film and television, we must pave the way through culture! My previous thoughts were not wrong!"
“Mainland’s cultural works also need to be paved!”
