Feature Shows Extravaganza

The story of the Mystery of the Notes can be summed up in one sentence:

A middle school boy (Oma) and his friends (Xiaolan, Youyou) bravely rescue a single mother (Queen Halle) who is trapped in a pyramid scheme (black magic)!

That's right!

The main plot is so simple and crude.

There is no romance, no intrigues, just awkward lines, exaggerated and contrived performances comparable to stage plays, and colorful fairy dresses...

Of course, this is the original version.

Although the plan Taomi got was consistent with the original version. However, she changed some of her lines and invited a magical girl to appear, so her acting skills will not be compromised.

So the PD version will be better.

But Meng Lang is still not optimistic...

Still the same problem, the actors for Ling Meiqi, Ling Meixue, Demon Fairy Xiaolan, Demon Fairy Queen and Prince You have all been changed.

What will the audience think?

The character image in the previous film is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Will the audience accept the sudden change of actors?

This question is crucial!

If this problem cannot be solved, the future of the musical note mystery is bleak.

But this has nothing to do with Meng Lang.

He was too lazy to give Tao Mi any ideas. If he had this time, he might as well think about what kind of limited edition should be produced for this year's Super Hero Festival?

It’s July again!

During the Pengda Summer Competition, the much-anticipated PD Super Hero Festival will also be held soon.

This year’s Super Hero Festival is scheduled to be held in Pengcheng, the capital of science and technology, for three days from July 24th to July 26th.

The previous sessions were all one day!

This session was changed to three days, mainly because there was too much content and one day was not enough time.

On the 24th, Ultraman x Kamen Rider!

On the 25th, Kamen Rider X Super Sentai!

On the 26th, Ultraman X Super Sentai!

This schedule is already a deliberately streamlined version. If IP characters such as Armor Warriors, Metal Heroes, and Transformers are added, it will probably take a week.

Meng Lang was also troubled.

At the beginning, he held this PD Super Hero Festival just to imitate Toei to mobilize the enthusiasm of fans and increase the popularity of the IP.

But at that time, PD had not yet launched the Super Sentai series, so it could only make do with Ultraman X Kamen Rider.

Later, IP characters such as Armor Warrior and Metal Hero were added.

With the passage of time and the birth of the Super Sentai series, the PD Super Hero Festival has become very different from the Toei Super Hero Festival. At this time, should we continue to imitate the Toei model?

The Toei Super Hero Festival has been a carnival party for Kamen Rider X Super Sentai from the very beginning!

The PD Super Hero Festival, because it integrates too many IPs, has moved towards the one pot of chaos model. Every July, the group headquarters would get into a fuss over this matter.

Why the quarrel?

It’s not that the Super Hero Festival is held for a short period of time, there are only a few IP characters that can appear.

And PD has too many IPs!

All participating? That's impossible! The schedules couldn’t be accommodated, and there wasn’t enough time. You can only choose two or three IPs from its many IPs to participate.

In order to compete for places, everyone will naturally quarrel.

Why did Ultraman go but Transformers couldn't? Why can Super Sentai go but not Armor Warrior?

Meng Lang was tired of the noise.

He was on the set filming Iron Armored Little Treasure. After learning the reason for everyone's quarrel through remote video conference, he simply made a rule.

Starting this year!

In the PD Super Hero Festival, only three IPs can appear!

Many IPs under PD took turns lining up to participate. For example, this year it will be Ultraman, Kamen Rider and Super Sentai, then next year it will be Armor Warrior, Transformers and Metal Heroes...

That's fair!

At the Super Hero Festival, everyone has a chance. Isn't it embarrassing to argue over such a trivial matter?

This regulation completely changed the direction of the PD Super Hero Festival. It can be said that from this moment on, the PD Super Hero Festival and the Toei Super Hero Festival, except for the same name, have completely different hosting modes.

As for which mode is better?

Feel sorry!

Meng Lang doesn't know either!

He only knows that this even rain and dew model is most suitable for Pengda.

…

The rules-changing PD Super Hero Festival came to a successful conclusion in Pengcheng.

The number of visitors this year was higher than in previous years, and the sales of the new venue-exclusive AgitΩ action figures were slightly better than in previous years.

The only regret is...

Meng Lang couldn't come to the scene in person!

After all, he has to stay with the crew and really can't spare time to go to Peng City to participate in this year's Super Hero Festival.

Moreover, Star Warrior will be released soon. Later network broadcasting rights, DVD disc recording authorization, and even the celebration party all required his intervention.

The online broadcast rights were jointly purchased by Big Bird Video and Penguin Video. The total transaction amount reached an astonishing 127 million, setting a new record for the online broadcast rights of PD theatrical version movies.

DVD discs are also being burned.

Meng Lang plans to record the Starlight Warriors and Ultraman Dyna TV series together and form a luxury collection gift package to sell to fans.

The celebration party was held at the Golden Horse Hotel!

As of the end of July, the domestic box office of Star Warrior has exceeded the 1 billion mark. Although it failed to set a new record, this achievement is still worthy of celebration.

At least I made some money!

With a box office of one billion, if divided into the hands of PD, it would probably be over 300 million. After deducting the cost, there should be more than 100 million left, which is pure box office revenue.

Don’t forget, there are also overseas box offices!

Star Warrior has been screened in theaters in more than a dozen countries overseas, with a total box office of approximately US$350 million, equivalent to approximately 2 billion yuan.

Sound like a lot?

In fact, it's not that much. After all, overseas publishers take higher commissions, and the money Meng Lang gets is about the same as domestic accounts.

Not bad!

From the box office alone, Starlight Warriors earned three to four billion. Coupled with peripheral derivatives, the estimated revenue is about 1 billion.

It’s no exaggeration to call it a “money printing machine”!

Of the four big movies in the same period, Starlight Warriors made money, and Happy Planet wasn't too bad either. The domestic box office exceeded 1 billion, and Haitian probably made a lot of money.

The mermaid warriors are a bit miserable.

Faced with the pincer attack between Starlight Warrior and Happy Planet, Mermaid Warrior performed mediocrely. The domestic and international box office combined barely recovered the production cost.

Fortunately, there is also Hourglass Solo!

This abortion youth film was obviously poorly made, but it relied on the forced tear-jerking story and the bad tribute to youth plot to make a breakthrough in this summer season, ranking third at the box office, second only to Star Warrior and Happy Planet.

Everyone in Meng Lang was dumbfounded.

He was defeated after watching this low-budget vulgar film for three minutes. It’s puzzling that it still managed to win so much box office.

Who is watching?

Sprout's rating is 4.7, and there are ten times more negative reviews than positive ones. Where did the 500 million box office come from?

Is it possible...

This is the underworld doing team building, and King Yama has reserved a movie theater for millions of Yin soldiers?
