Chapter 365: "Independence Day" vs. "Godzilla" The global Chinese martial arts competition ended with an unexpected success. And the success of this session has also accumulated rich experience for the next session. Although it is held every two years, sporadic local performances and fighting competitions still appear occasionally. After the global martial arts competition, the popularity and influence of Chinese Kung Fu in the world has reached a higher level. It makes other boxing techniques a little breathless. This has a lot to do with the unrestricted fighting competition that Japan, South Korea and Thailand will hold for a long time. The purpose is naturally to restore some of the reputation and market that have been impacted by Chinese Kung Fu. The best way to restore your reputation and market is naturally to take advantage of the current Chinese Kung Fu industry. However, Zhang Yi does not think that the alliance of the martial arts circles of the Three Kingdoms can suppress Chinese Kung Fu. Today¡¯s Chinese Kung Fu is not what it was in the previous life. After Zhang Yi¡¯s interference, many lost things have emerged. Moreover, what was originally going to be lost is now developing rapidly. Zhang Yi wanted to take Zhou Huimin to the mainland, but had to postpone it until next year. At the end of this year, Zhang Yi will have to go to the United States. "Independence Day" is released. This movie is written and financed by Zhang Yi. It would be bad if he doesn't attend. Because the role of president in this movie is played by George W. Bush. Of course, Zhang Yi went to the premiere not just because of George W. Bush. After all, it was he who asked for Zhang Yi now, not Zhang Yi who asked for him. Go, naturally, to cheer for "Independence Day". The production of "Independence Day" was actually completed very early. I just chose to release it during the Christmas season, which would be more effective at the box office. Of course, the main reason is to snipe the monster movie "Godzilla" produced by Columbia Pictures! The fight between Columbia and Jiying Films is no secret in Hollywood. Moreover, it is also known to everyone that Zhang Yi filmed "Independence Day" to snipe Columbia Pictures' "Godzilla". Now, the two movies are released on the same day. Naturally, it caused a great deal of discussion. Which one is better and which one is worse. Who will win or lose? Countless people are looking forward to it. Things involving Zhang Yi, the Japanese martial arts community, and the Japanese consortium are like open secrets. The business competition on the surface, and some shady fights behind the scenes, were all described clearly and brilliantly by the media. Whether it is competition in business or finance. Whether it was a secret fight or not, Zhang Yi seemed to have the upper hand. Due to the apparent commercial competition, the Japanese martial arts schools were impacted by Zhang Yi's martial arts building and have withered to the point of being miserable. The market for the products of those consortiums has also been completely impacted by the products of Zhang Yi's industries. As for the secret fight, let alone it. Many of the leaders of those consortiums died, and they invested a lot of bonuses and hired mercenaries. As a result, they were destroyed by Zhang Yi's mercenaries. As for receiving the bonus. The assassin who wanted to assassinate Zhang Yi had already disappeared and did not dare to show his face. Nowadays, the competition over movies has become fierce, and neither film company is a vegetarian. There is no shortage of funds on hand, and the publicity efforts are amazing. The media was in an uproar over these two films. but. Most media, especially the American media, are biased towards Zhang Yi's movie. "Godzilla" is obviously a remake of a Japanese monster movie from decades ago. Originally, the Japanese acquired Columbia Pictures, which owned the trademark of the Statue of Liberty. It has stung American pride. At this time, I don¡¯t know how many Americans are looking forward to "Godzilla" being defeated by "Independence Day". By comparison, Zhang Yi previously shot a purely American film, which perfectly interpreted the American spirit. It swept the Oscars and was recognized by almost all Americans. ???????????????????? And now it¡¯s a movie written by him, and it also has a very deep American brand. And even the name is so American. "Independence Day", although it is not about an independent American film, is undoubtedly a large-scale production with typical American taste. Zhang Yi¡¯s own box office appeal is unmatched by anyone. He is the screenwriter of this movie, and he is the only person to win the Oscar for Best Screenplay this year. He even won three Oscars for Best Screenplay at the age of 23. Screenwriters like this have extremely high appeal. As for Zhang Yi's own legend, the number of fans he has in the world is definitely a huge number. "Godzilla" has inherent deficiencies, and failure seems to be a foregone conclusion. But now the Japanese don¡¯t have much else but a lot of money. Don¡¯t argue about good or bad, argue about tone. No matter whether the movie "Godzilla" can make money or not, as the first movie after acquiring Columbia Pictures, it will make a name for itself and gain enough momentum. So from the propagandaIn terms of intensity, "Godzilla" is more than one level higher than "Independence Day". "Colombia's publicity can be said to be fatigue bombing. Nowadays, there is probably not a single person in the United States who doesn't know that such a film is about to be released. I have seen the finished film of "Independence Day" and it is indeed good. But if it loses in terms of publicity, it will inevitably be a bit regretful. " Balidile picked up Zhang Yi at the airport and said to Zhang Yi in the car on the way to the company. "They are stupid to spend money on them. We don't have this need. Nowadays, which media mentions "Godzilla" without also mentioning "Independence Day"?" Zhang Yi smiled and said, ""Godzilla" The investment is more than 100 million, and now that they have spent so much money on promotion, I guess it will be difficult for them to recoup the cost. If we can fool them once, we can make "Godzilla" again!" Zhang Yi remembered that after this movie was released, it caused a lot of criticism from monster fans. No matter the reputation or box office, it cannot be compared with "Independence Day". Although both films have been released a lot of time, Zhang Yi believes that there is not much difference between the two. Before the premiere, Zhang Yi also watched the finished film of "Independence Day". Although some actors were changed, there was not much difference in the film. Some scenes even surpass the original version, but of course some are not as good as the original version. But overall, they are similar. As for "Godzilla", Zhang Yi has naturally not watched it and has no plans to watch it. Because he really has no interest in that movie. On December 20, 1990, the two movies "Independence Day" and "Godzilla" were released at the same time. For movie fans, they are still looking forward to it. The two movies premiered and each invited many celebrities. And there's no question that a lot more people went to the premiere of "Independence Day" than to the premiere of "Godzilla." ¡° Moreover, in terms of the number of media, many more people went to ¡°Independence Day¡± than to ¡°Godzilla.¡± No way, who makes Zhang Yi so attractive to the media? And this may be one of the reasons why Zhang Yi attended the premiere of "Independence Day". Zhang Yi was naturally the most dazzling center of attention among those attending the premiere. He is not only the focus of celebrity pursuits, but also the focus of media interviews. The person who attended with Zhang Yi was not Bali Diller, but his soy sauce apprentice Schwarzenegger. Today, like Zhang Yi, he is wearing a Tang suit, cloth shoes, and a smile. Although he does not have the elegant temperament of Zhang Yi, he still has a different temperament. "However, together with Zhang Yi, being set off seems a bit nondescript. After walking on the red carpet, he seemed to realize this and immediately regretted it. "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang. Will "Independence Day" written by you beat Columbia Pictures' "Godzilla"?" a reporter asked loudly. "Defeat? These two words will only appear when you meet an opponent. So, I can't answer this question." Zhang Yi smiled and said. "Mr. Zhang, do you mean that Colombia's "Godzilla" is not worthy of being your opponent of Jiying Film Company's "Independence Day"?" When the reporter heard this, he was immediately excited. This was a breaking point. Although Zhang Yi didn¡¯t answer directly just now. But it's sharper than a direct answer. "That's not what I meant. I was just stating a fact." Zhang Yi said still smiling. By stating a fact, Zhang Yi¡¯s meaning becomes clear. What he means is that "Godzilla" is not worthy to be the opponent of "Independence Day". It¡¯s not even an opponent, so naturally it can¡¯t be said to be ¡°defeated¡±. This is a kind of shameless contempt!
