As the second largest investor of the movie "Demon City Fortress", Chen Wu met with Li Qian the day after the dinner conference.

"Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is scheduled for the summer, and the "Tomb Robbery Notes" movie produced by Penguin Films is in preparation, Chen Wu is here to discuss with Li Qian, and take Li Rengang to watch the finished film of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" in a few days to learn from experience.

Of course, no problem, Xu Ke is still filming "Outwitting Tiger Mountain", and we will see if he has time to communicate in two days. ”

Li Qian responded, there was nothing to hide, and even the early concept drawings and modeling of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" gave Chen Wu a lesson or two.

Of course, this is paid, replacing Penguin's 20 million promotional resources for "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

It doesn't matter if the film is finished and shown to them in advance, and even Li Qian hopes that Li Rengang can make this "Tomb Robbery Notes" well, and it is good to have one less bad movie.

Although there is little hope, the two male protagonists of this play have been determined, and they are the two beautiful young men in memory.

It is estimated that the film was filmed by Li Rengang, and there was no replacement.

Speaking of which, Li Rengang is also a famous director, otherwise he would not have made a lot of big-budget films, and most well-known directors are very paranoid about their own films, and it is unlikely that they can listen to others.

When Cheng Kaige filmed "Farewell My Concubine", his reputation and fame were still poor, and the executive director Zhang Jinzhan in the crew, the original author Li Bihua, the screenwriter Lu Wei, and the photographer Gu Changwei were all top figures in their respective fields, so they could suppress Cheng Kaige.

changed the current Cheng Kai Ge, just to find them all, Brother Kai estimates that everything has to be done according to his own ideas, where will he care about other people's suggestions.

There is a high probability that after watching the finished film of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", Li Rengang still shoots the same as the original.

However, it doesn't matter whether Li Rengang learns anything from it or not.

Chen Wu was a little surprised by Li Qian's generosity, if nothing else, "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" and "Tomb Robbery Notes" will be opponents in TV series and big screens in the future, after all, they are all the same type.

"Thank you so much Director Li. ”

"Mr. Chen is polite, it should be. ”

"By the way, Director Li, "Demon Capital Fortress", are you really not optimistic? or are you not optimistic about Teng Huatao?" Chen Wu talked about it again.

At yesterday's project press conference, Huang Zhongjun announced that he would use "Demon City Fortress" to regain respect for domestic films and domestic science fiction, and suddenly self-promotion became a representative, and netizens were enthusiastic, as if they regarded "Demon City Fortress" and "The Wandering Earth" as the hope of domestic science fiction in formation, and did not mention the failure of Teng Huatao's last film.

"There's nothing to look forward to. Li Qian shook his head, "A science fiction movie, from the confirmation to be filmed, to the establishment of the project, only four months have passed, it is too hasty." ”

The penguins have already invested, and Li Qian is not afraid that he will not dare to invest, after all, even "Asura" has invested 100 million.

"Magic City Fortress" has a rough script and concept, and "Asura" is just a magic blockbuster of Hollywood's top standards, plus a famous marketing master.

Chen Wu smiled indifferently, "Director Li said this, then Tenghuatao still has some ability, I am relieved, in fact, I don't have too many requirements, three years later, the market is further exaggerated, no matter how you can get a billion box office, it is enough, and if you have more, you should make money." ”

For Chen Wu and Penguin, it doesn't matter how the film is, anyway, relying on the revival of domestic science fiction, the popularity of "Magic City Fortress" is enough, and the audience is very interested.

Teng Huatao also seemed to be holding his breath, he also has a certain ability, and he will not be bad.

Besides, "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven" is rotten like that, and it won't still sell a billion, even if Li Qian is not optimistic about "Demon Capital Fortress", Chen Wu estimates that no matter how bad it is, it will have the level of "Havoc in Heaven".

Breaking one billion will reach Chen Wu's bottom line, it doesn't matter if you lose some money, the most important thing Penguin Film and Television is money now.

If Li Qian knew what Chen Wu was thinking, he would probably be aggrieved by "Havoc in Heaven", which is completely insulting to "Havoc in Heaven", although it was all filmed by Blind Gil.

......

"Magic City Fortress" hyped itself as the hope of domestic science fiction, and Li Qian also saw it, in fact, the audience's emotions were easily mobilized.

In the past two years, there have been frequent remakes of bad movies, and many people are scolding domestic movies, and by the way, they use films from Asian countries such as Nanbang, Japan, Bollywood, and Yilang to step on domestic movies.

Audiences who like domestic movies are naturally very indignant and aggrieved, so when they see hope, they will be enthusiastic and supportive.

As the hope of domestic science fiction, "Demon Capital Fortress" naturally came out of the limelight.

"The Wandering Earth" hasn't been promoted much, it's still very early before it is released, so let others be in the limelight, and it won't be in the limelight before it is released.

After two years of preparation and two years of production, "The Wandering Earth" went behind the scenes in such a low-key manner.

Li Qian is also busy with his "Destiny Flight", from beginning to end, except for the first few minutes, the whole story has to be pondered by himself, which is also a time-consuming job.

It took half a year to complete the rough script while busy with the company's IPO and preparing the script until the summer vacation.

It's a very interesting story in itself, a group of people who should have died, and suddenly appeared five years later, even if it is placed on the Internet, it is a very creative story.

Although he doesn't plan to shoot in the direction of sci-fi, and he can't be too entertaining, Li Qian still tries to make the story watchable.

Movies that no one watches have no meaning other than self-indulgence.

Emotion is still the most gripping element.

The father-daughter relationship between the father and the daughter who has lost her father for five years and has reached puberty.

The daughter lost her father when she was still young, and another man who loved her mother appeared in their lives, giving without asking for anything in return, making up for these five years of fatherly love.

The daughter who has grown up also regards this uncle as a family member, and at this time, the father who is in her heart suddenly appears, and she is still very conflicted about the mature adolescent girl, no matter which one he accepts, it is a problem.

Twin siblings, the age difference is suddenly five years, one has grown up, the other is still stuck five years ago, the age gap, and five years of unfamiliarity, the sister and brother must not get along so well.

The wife, who has come out of her grief and intends to start over, and has just begun to try to accept another person, suddenly comes back and digs out the feelings he has hidden in his heart, which is also a difficult choice, inner entanglement and pain.

These emotional conflicts constitute the family's choices for the future life in the face of great changes.

After the father and son returned, they were separated because of their own contradictions, and the father took his son to work while reintegrating into the society.

Of course, in the end, after all kinds of contradictions, misunderstandings, and guilt, the family is still together.

This is for sure, domestic commercial films must be filmed like this.

Hollywood is different, different countries have different attitudes towards family and ethics.

There is a comedy "Life Remote Control", which is probably the office worker actor who gets a remote control that can fast forward time.

Fast forward time when you are stuck in traffic on the road, go directly to the company, fast forward when you work overtime, and the work is done after a second.

I handed over the public food at night, I was too tired to come, so I fast-forwarded and went directly into the sage mode.

I also made an appointment to take my son out to play, and I didn't have time to fast forward directly.

Later, there were too many fast forwards, too many things passed in the middle, divorced, and my wife left to be with others.

China is still very shy about this kind of plot, after all, the heart is in response, and it is common for Hollywood actresses to have bad sex.

However, there is still no time together between the hero's sister and his ex-fiancé.

A family, two brothers and sisters, one returns to the life they had five years ago, and the other starts over, with both results.

After completing the preliminary script, Li Qian stopped first, the company had already submitted an application to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, and it will be listed at the end of next year at the latest.

Although there is nothing to be busy with, the company's performance is up to standard, and the profits in the past two years have beaten many listed companies with a market value of 100 billion.

There is no tax evasion or anything, some of Li Qian's houses and cars across the country were bought with money from his studio account, and there are hundreds of millions of dollars lying in them, all of which are the remuneration dividends of each movie.

When the movie is released, he has to go to roadshows everywhere, and Li Qian also bought some houses and cars in major cities, and he can use them when he goes.

The company's prospects, even the blind can see, countless capitals are waving checks to get financing.

Still, there are some things that need to be taken care of.

In recent years, the company has invested in some emerging industries, covering various fields, and there are almost fifty or sixty entrepreneurial companies.

Except for shared bicycles and takeaway platforms, which frequently appear in film and television dramas in memory, Li Qian rarely asks about other Li Qian, investment is like this, cast a wide net to catch more fish, maybe the company you carefully analyzed will go bankrupt in minutes, but the company you invest in casually has become a unicorn.

Although some of them went bankrupt in a year, and even some angel rounds were over, they are still alive, and there are nearly 20 companies that can operate normally, and it is estimated that half of them can stick to the C round of financing.

put several promising companies under his name in advance, and then the theater chain and ticket-buying platform were also spun off.

In the past few years, more than 10 or 20 marketing and production companies have been acquired one after another, and the splits that should be split, the reorganization that should be reorganized, and the ones that should be operated separately have also been spun out.

It's so troublesome to start a big company, and now in the Internet era, those local marketing and ground distribution specialists in the past have to reduce their personnel, and there is no need for so many people in this era.

There are too many things, and the busy heads are big, which is no different from those busy white-collar workers in the CBD.

Finally came to the summer file, "Ghost Blows the Lantern" was released, and Li Qian was also busy.

I went to the cinema for two hours and rested.

The premiere will be held on July 8 at the Olympic Sports Center.

Big production, blockbuster, of course, it's a little grander.

As soon as Li Qian arrived at the scene, he was surrounded by reporters, and he hadn't seen him for half a year.

"Director Li, you have disappeared for half a year, and fans are very much looking forward to your new film!"

What are these words, and disappear.

Li Qian smiled, "Thank you very much for your love." ”

“？？？”

The reporters were confused, the last time a new film was mentioned, Li Qian took the initiative to reveal the news of the movie without waiting for them to ask, why didn't he realize it this time!

The hint failed, and the reporter asked directly.

"May I ask if the preparations for Director Li's new film have been completed, and when will he be able to meet the audience?"

"What is the genre of Director Li's new film?"

"Domestic sci-fi is about to usher in a revival, has Director Li considered making a hard sci-fi blockbuster?"

......

One question after another drowned Li Qian, but this time Li Qian was afraid that he would disappoint them.

He shook his head and said, "The new film is indeed already being prepared, but the script has not yet been completed, and it is difficult to say when it will be released." ”

The reporters looked disappointed, it's been half a year, and they haven't prepared yet, where did the former fast gunman Li Qian go.

"Then what is the genre of Director Li's new film?"

"It's a secret for now, but I'm sure it won't disappoint you. ”

One question and three don't know how to launch skills, no matter how reporters ask about the new film, Li Qian is silent.

are all old acquaintances, and the reporters also know that Li Qian is like this, he will take the initiative to say what he wants to say, and if he doesn't want to say it, he can't get an answer if he asks it a hundred times.

So, another topic continued.

"Director Li, not long after the establishment of the "Wandering Earth" project, "The Magic Fortress" announced the establishment of the project, and advertised as the first domestic sci-fi blockbuster, do you think "The Magic Fortress" is following the trend of "The Wandering Earth"?"

"What is not to follow the trend, who stipulates that we make sci-fi blockbusters, others are not allowed to make sci-fi blockbusters, but I hope that more and more directors and investors will focus on sci-fi films, make our country's own sci-fi films, and also contribute to the industrialization of Chinese films!" Li Qian flatly denied that although Teng Huatao was indeed a little suspicious of following the trend, there was no need to harm others.

Three years later, the movie is bloody, and it is so unlucky, there is no need.

"Then who do you think is the first domestic sci-fi production in "The Wandering Earth" and "Magic City Fortress"?" the reporter asked again.

It's just a little unnutritious and trouble-provoking, and Li Qian is a little bored.

"Is this important? I've heard of the box office first, I've heard the score first, as for the first sci-fi production, I don't understand what the meaning of this title is, the most important thing is the release of the movie, whether the audience is satisfied, whether it can make a good start for domestic sci-fi. ”

After speaking, Li Qian entered the venue under the escort of the security guards.

The reporters had nothing to gain, but they were not disappointed, and some people were already mentally picking up the headlines for the future.

The box office is true, Li Qian disdains to grab the first domestic sci-fi title... Something like that.

......

When I arrived at the venue, many people had already arrived, and the protagonist Xu Ke also came, and Huang Zhonglei was also there.

Next to Huang Zhonglei, Teng Huatao also came.

Hey...

Huayang Media and Xu Ke also have a sequel to "Di Renjie" to cooperate, but why did Teng Huatao come, there seems to be a little resentment in his eyes.

"Director Xu, I'm sorry to be late. ”

Li Qian said hello to Xu Ke, looked at Huang Zhonglei and them, and said with a smile, "Mr. Huang and Director Teng are welcome to the premiere." ”
