A film of the genre "Walking with God" is set in Asia, especially East Asia, and there is no need for opening credits at all - it is the introduction of the Seven Palaces of Yama or something.

We know a lot about ghosts and spirits.

Double-knife turkey masterpiece: love and righteousness are worth a thousand gold, why not go up to the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire!

Even the underworld understands this!

But hell in Europe and the United States is not what we imagined...

They are the good guys going to heaven and the bad guys going to hell, and they've been divided from the beginning...

It's this kind of deep-rooted thought that makes it difficult to be interested in "Walking with God".

Unless the lead actor is changed to Leonardo, Brad Pitt and the like.

The question is, if you change to these actors, is this stepping horse still a Chinese-language movie?

Back to the plot...

Jiang Lin played by Chen Kun, the eldest of the three defenders, since he chose Li Zihong as the noble person to defend, he must help him get rid of his crimes!

Besides, Li Zihong has already passed six levels, and there is only the last round left.

Jiang Lin arranged for Li Zihong's younger brother to meet his mother in his dream, and expressed his apologies through his younger brother:

"When my mother was sick, we had a really hard time, that's why my brother made such a sinful decision... He left home, didn't dare to come back for fifteen years, and kept working hard to send us all the money..."

Then the mother spoke: "I never blamed him, it was all my fault, I don't have the ability to let my children live a comfortable life..."

Two people cried into tears...

Mankind has received true forgiveness of sins in the yang world, and there will be no more judgment in the underworld.

King Yama granted Li Zihong's reincarnation.

"All human beings in the Yang Realm will sin in their lives, and then only a small part of them will really muster up the courage to seek forgiveness, and only a very few of them will be truly forgiven!"

"To be forgiven, you need love in your heart, who will forgive others to kill themselves?

The last two sentences are to the point...

At the end of the movie, the audience applauded politely.

......

"Actually, we thought about writing a story based on The Seven Deadly Sins, but lust is not easy to do... Our film is PG-13, not R..."

"The Seven Halls of Hell follow the Buddhist doctrine..."

"Why do you want to make this movie? First, because the stage of the afterlife, the afterlife, and reincarnation is very attractive, although I don't fully believe it, and in addition, the original author's insight and reflection on this society are very close to people's hearts, and how to inspire and reverberate more moving from the stories of the underworld and hell is the biggest focus. ”

At the press conference after the movie, reporters from the two sides of the strait and three places basically asked questions, and Wu Ershan and Shen Mengxi answered...

The foreign press doesn't seem to pay much attention ...

After all, in their opinion, movies like "Walking with God" are more satisfying to the nature of curiosity, and what they care about is the relationship between Shen Mengxi and this movie - after all, Shen Mengxi is a Cannes descendant and an artist cultivated!

"I think there is no difference between commercial films and art films, one is to shoot for the public, and the other is to satisfy my own selfish desires..."

"Actually, I saw the "Walking with God" manga in '07, and I bought the adaptation rights at that time, but it never progressed... Because the technical aspect is not up to standard!"

"Censorship?"

"The censorship does have a bit of an impact, mainly because of the grafting of the story background, you have to make the audience believe in the story, you can't shape it out of thin air..."

"In '09, I mentioned this movie to Wu Ershan, and then he started to prepare and produce, and it took two and a half years..."

"I hope that through the content of humor, introspection, and consciousness in the film, the audience can know how to live and how to pursue the right direction. ”

"Of course the special effects are very important, otherwise, we wouldn't have spent two years making this movie, the movie is roughly divided into content and form, the form is not better than the content, the content is not better than the form, how to grasp the balance, this is difficult to say!"

"When we make a big commercial film, we not only hope that the audience can see the shock brought by the special effects, but also see the charm of the film at various levels in the detailed emotional performance of the actors. ”

"Of course I hope it works..."

......

Wu Ershan is worried about all kinds of things...

Judging from the results of the screening, there are quite a few days of ice and fire, the Asian media are all kinds of excitement, and the European and American parts are a little deserted.

It's very nervous!

Nonsense, of course nervous, 280 million cost, 50 million publicity, real 330 million!

This Nima, the domestic box office has to have one billion to pay back.

Why come to Cannes to sell films?

I just want to make up for it by overseas...

Shen Mengxi's thoughts are stable!

Properly able to break a billion...

What is the basis for the blockbuster popularity of large commercial films?

Special effects, stories, stars.

"Walking with God" is all equipped.

Coupled with the summer file, a gap of 20 days, Shen Mengxi is full of confidence!

Overseas copyright sales are also very good, especially in Asia, South Korea was released simultaneously, and several countries in Southeast Asia sold $8 million in copyrights.

In terms of Japanese benzene, Toei offered a $12 million buyout, and Shen Mengxi agreed.

Asia alone sold $20 million in copyrights...

Europe, Latin America and the United States handed over the development of Bren House, and the benefits were split in half.

Shen Mengxi was surprised that even Indian filmmakers came to ask about the price...

By the way, the Indian film market has enchantment protection, and Hollywood, which is globally accessible, has hit a wall.

For example, "Avengers 4" is the most important movie in the world in the first half of 2019, and this Hollywood blockbuster almost dominates the global film market: whether it is European countries such as Britain, France and Germany, or South American countries such as Brazil, Argentina, Chile, or Southeast Asian countries such as Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, the box office champion is all "Avengers 4".

Including China, South Korea, Japan...

But in India, "Generation Superstar Sanjay-kun", "Queen Padmawati", "Indian Thug" and "Avengers 4" are all kinds of hanging...

It is difficult for Hollywood blockbusters to open the Indian market, let alone Chinese-language films!

There are basically no Chinese films that can be released in India, and overseas markets are basically in Japan, South Korea, North America, and Southeast Asia.

This is not only a question of ideology and national hostility, but also a reason for cultural differences, different values!

Speaking of which, I have to praise Uncle Long - Cheng Long is one of the few Chinese superstars who can open the Indian market!

Therefore, Indian filmmakers asked for the copyright of "Walking with God", and Shen Mengxi offered a very low price: $300,000...

The latter promised ...

After selling the film, Shen Mengxi left Cannes, and before leaving, he met with Jill Jacob, the chairman of the Cannes Film Festival, to talk about the win-win cooperation between China and France.

By the way, Shen Mengxi was invited to be a jury member of next year's Cannes Film Festival...

Next year...

can also take Shen Mengxi to show "The Great Wall".
