Naturally, it was Andy Lau...

The king of heaven is the king of heaven, and the pomp is really big!

Andy Lau, no one should say anything.

Red for decades, perfect idol!

In recent years, there have been a lot of discussions on the Internet, saying that Andy Lau is hypocritical, saying that his acting skills are not as good as Liang Chaowei, his singing is not as good as Zhang Xueyou, and he is not worthy of being among the four kings.

even said that when I invested in "Crazy Stone", I was not optimistic about this movie at all, but watched "Green Meadow" and "Incense", and felt that the composition and photography of the movie were very good.

Meaning, shit luck!

Regardless of what he thought at the beginning, is "Crazy Stone" an opportunity because of the new Asian star director?

Did Andy Lau want to support movies at that time?

If these two items are satisfied, it is enough!

To make a movie, someone really pays to sponsor you, this is called the grace of knowledge!

As for hypocrisy, sleekness, selling people or something, people have sold their personalities for a lifetime, and no one has exposed him, you are awesome, and your personality will not collapse!

......

Shen Mengxi didn't have any thoughts about Liu Tianwang, Tianwang's salary was too expensive, and he didn't want to impress him without 12 million...

Mr. Shen is now playing low-budget comedy.

It is impossible for Andy Lau to be his tool!

Therefore, in the face of the Heavenly King, Shen Mengxi is very calm - there is nothing to ask for, naturally there is nothing to fear!

It's a stark contrast to everyone around you.

The mainland entertainment industry at this time period is looking up to Hong Kong filmmakers!

Many hosts also exaggerated, saying that 'seeing Liang Chaowei and Jin Chengwu is like seeing a god'...

Yes, the filmmakers in Hong Kong have enough business experience and know how to make money, we are just starting out, we have to learn more like others, but there is no need to supply!

In 2020, where Shen Mengxi is located, Hong Kong filmmakers, even the top, are just like that...

They are no longer mainstream in the entire Chinese film industry!

If you think about it, even the Hong Kong Film Awards don't get much attention...

At the end of the screening of "Stone", accompanied by applause, Shen Mengxi took the stage again, took the microphone, and said the words he had prepared before: "In fact, when we look at the world, except for North America, audiences in all countries have similar tastes, and localized comedy has become a magic weapon against Hollywood blockbusters in most countries. ”

"The down-to-earth story theme, strong regional slang and allusions, make the local audience feel very intimate. ”

"Mr. Russell once said: It is necessary to know that unevenness and polymorphism are the source of happiness. It means that the world itself is diverse, and this sentence is also true in the field of film, and local culture is irreplaceable!"

"Then back to 'Crazy Stone', why is this movie popular? because it's a commercial film for our own people!"

The host is Xu Zheng, and he asked a question - I have been to the script before...

"Why do you say blockbusters are bad?"

"It's not bad, it's unnecessary," Shen Mengxi paused, and then said: "To put it mildly, our great directors have been trying to fiddle with our country's long-standing and profound traditional culture, but do they really understand these cultures?"

Okay, receive!

The media and reporters below have already reaped the benefits...

When people come from afar, they always need some news material!

Shen Mengxi is still not bold enough, if he is bold, he will directly drag out "Night Banquet" and criticize it - Feng Xiaogang wants to use "Rashomon" to tell "Hamlet", but unfortunately it was made into a simple palace fighting drama...

And it's a very simple palace fight!

The Chinese audience is not interested in this kind of...

After the premiere, Shen Mengxi talked to the reporter for a while, and then went backstage.

"After the Shanghai premiere, you go to Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Changsha, Chongqing..."

Ning Hao paused for a moment, and then asked, "Do you want to go?"

"Of course, the national roadshow, what do you think is about it?"

"Is this necessary?"

"Okay, I'm in charge of the publicity, you just do it!" After a pause, Shen Mengxi added: "This is the first ten days of the trip, and after that, some media interviews and TV interviews will be arranged..."

Ning Hao nodded with a bitter face...

The staff came again and reminded: "Brother Hua is leaving..."

Shen Mengxi got up: "Then let's go and send it!"

......

Of course Andy Lau knows Shen Mengxi, although the direct person in charge of "Stone" is Yu Weiguo, but Mingxi Studio's subsequent investment of 2 million yuan can only be invested with the consent of Andy Lau.

After all, he is the funder.

At the beginning, he thought that Shen Mengxi was a rich second generation with a mine in his family.

Later I learned that he was a screenwriter and best-selling author.

After the release of "Stone", Shen Mengxi said wildly that "a film that changed the course of Chinese films" and "a box office that broke 100 million", and his reputation even spread to Hong Kong!

originally thought that this was a teenager who only knew how to talk big and didn't know the depths of the entertainment industry, but when I saw him today, I felt that it made sense when I heard what he said.

It makes sense – you go back to 2006 and you can say a bunch of things that make sense!

Therefore, he said to Shen Mengxi, "Are you interested in talking about it in detail?"

Of course, Shen Mengxi agreed, "Stone" sold films, and he had to count on Lao Liu...

"What does Brother Hua want to talk about?"

"Have you watched "Ink Attack"?"

"Look..."

"What do you think is the problem?"

In "Ink Attack", Andy Lau thinks he is very attentive - soaked in water for 17 hours.

The story itself is not bad - adapted from the manga of the same name by Hideki Mori.

According to the evaluation of later generations: This is a sincere work, but unfortunately the whole is slightly thin, many abrupt plots, lack of foreshadowing, coarse cloth and rotten character modeling, miserable, depressing and tragic battlefield tragic atmosphere, so that it is impossible to have attendance.

In the end, the mainland box office was 67 million, and the Hong Kong box office was 15 million, which was far less than expected. Since then, director Zhang Zhiliang has gone crazy and gradually fallen into mediocrity, except for an ordinary literary film "Ticket", two big-budget films "Butterfly on the Shoulder" and "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch: Bright Moon Heaven" are so bad that they are unsightly.

Andy Lau's movies in recent years have all exceeded 100 million!

This is the reason for the box office failure that he analyzed.

What's with?

It's too mediocre, there are no bright spots, and if you can sell 67 million, you should burn high incense!

Shen Mengxi thought for a while and replied: "The original work is not very popular, if you shoot a story with the theme of the Three Kingdoms, the box office will be much better." ”

"Three Kingdoms theme?"

"Yes, didn't Brother Hua always want to play Zhao Yun?"

Andy Lau nodded, and was about to continue asking, when Shen Mengxi's mobile phone rang, he was very embarrassed to take out his mobile phone and was about to hang up, looked at the caller ID, and said, "Brother Hua, I'll answer the phone first!"

It was Jiang Nan who dialed it, so it should be almost done!

Also, "Stone" is now in the limelight for a while, and Shen Mengxi's investment vision has been confirmed, so how bad can he be with "People in Embarrassment", which he personally served as the screenwriter?

Liu Yifei acted in such a movie, and he didn't lose his share!

“... Okay, I see. ”

Two minutes later, Shen Mengxi hung up the phone, his face was as usual, and he looked at Andy Liu: "Brother Hua, let's continue!"

"You just mentioned the Three Kingdoms, are you interested in making one?"
