A few paragraphs The predecessor of the "Wandering Earth Plan" was introduced. And "Wandering Earth 2" tells the prequel story of "Wandering Earth".

In the Spring Festival in 2021, "New God List: Rebirth of Nezha" was officially released. The division was 456 million box office. However, because the schedule competition is too fierce, this result can only be called unsatisfactory.

In August 2022, "New God List: Yang Yan" was officially released in the summer file that may be more suitable for animated movies, and the reputation was still good after the release. In terms of the story, the film set a well -known character in the universe of the gods, Yang Yan set up the big background of the Shang and Zhou dynasties after 1500 years (Jin Dynasty), and "Yang Yan and Agarwood", a character that had been interpreted in "Bao Lian Lantern" The relationship also has a new interpretation in the film.

U.S. streaming media ratings first super -cable TV

Last week, according to the monthly data released by Nielsen, the U.S. streaming media video service usage accounted for 34.8%of the viewing rate in July, 34.4%of cable TVs and 21.6%of wireless radio and television, and occupied the largest TV ratings for the first time.

Among streaming distributors, Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, Hulu, and YouTube's share in July have reached a record high. The replacement of streaming media's status of cable TV is naturally a general situation. However, the data that occurs in the United States, which is still quite developed in cable TV, especially paid TV, and this data is still a milestone incident.

It is no wonder that Netflixceo Hessinus also confidently stated at the financial report and telephone that the "traditional TV program system" (Linear TV) will die within 5 to 10 years. "

However, Netflix also faces the problem of growth. The decline in membership subscriptions in the first quarter and the performance of financial reports is not ideal. In the second quarter, the hit rebound of the "Strange Story" also shows that content supply is still the decisive factor for streaming media development or even survival. Especially last week, Disney's three major streaming media (Disney+, HULU, ESPN+) under exaggerated growth, the number of subscribers has exceeded Netflix.

"Strange Story"

Netflix's response strategy is the further diversification of subscribers. Joint CEO Sallands confirmed that Netflix will launch a more "cheaper, but advertising member service", and this service does not allow subscribers to download TV series or movies.

According to reports, Netflix, which ads, does not allow ads when watching, and cannot control the playback function when playing advertisements (this is a bit like a traditional TV). Of course, there will be no advertisements in the content.
