Chapter 58: The Circle (part 3 of 5)

It's useless to be envious, everyone has their own personality!

The questions asked about Shen Mengxi were all questions that were not suitable for pretending.

"I heard that Tang Ren is going to make a science fiction film?"

"Well, there are plans in this regard, but we can't make a big investment in science fiction films as soon as we come up, maybe it's more humanistic..."Heartbreaker" and "Song of Life" are very suitable for soft science fiction..."

"Everyone's mindset is that Chinese directors can't make good science fiction films, do you think that with the current industrial conditions, Chinese directors can make science fiction films with the same technology and story as Hollywood?"

"It may be a good shot or a bad one, no one knows for sure, but let it happen first! Moreover, I really don't think there is anything difficult about science fiction films, we are similar to Westerners in terms of brain capacity, I think it is very likely. If you don't try, don't make a decision, say that it's not good, it's self-light, no courage. You can fail, but you have to do it!"

"It's controversial to say that there is a yellow person with yellow skin on the Internet to save the world, what do you think?"

"I think it's still a problem with the oriental aesthetic system, "Future Police", we look very pompous, think it's fake, but even if the special effects reach the top, the level of Iron Man, you take off your hat and look, it's a Chinese, subconsciously feel inappropriate, because we haven't experienced the industrial revolution, so, most of the audience doesn't have that kind of emotion for mechanical things, why does the United States have "Transformers" Because he has a car, and many Americans have lived in the car since they were children, and the car is almost their second home, so he has a deep emotional connection to the car. ”

"But we didn't, so we had to find a design structure that made us feel relatable, including the color palette, which had to be strengthened and preserved... I won't talk about the rest of it, this is what it took us half a year to research, and in another two years, we will do a step of hard science fiction in the real sense!"

"Then do you think soft sci-fi will be a big hit?"

"I think that a movie is a thing, no matter what genre, its core is the characters and emotions, and it is impossible to make a movie without emotion, then it is not interesting, on the contrary, if you find that emotion and let it empathize with the audience, it is a good movie. ”

"Thank you..."

"You're welcome. ”

After finishing the interview, Shen Mengxi walked into the hall.

......

It can be said that "Lucky Key" swept away the box office disappointment of "Piano of Steel" and "Donkey Gets Water", which made the whole company excited.

Of course, the final score of this movie is 7.8 points, which is not as good as "Piano of Steel" or "Donkey Gets Water", but the secondary market does not recognize the score, only the box office.

"I've found this problem too. ”

Li Yiping asked: "It seems that the investment in this kind of film will be reduced in the future?"

Shen Mengxi shook his head: "That's not necessary, independent film shooting is simple, suitable for exercising newcomers, we always have to be ahead of the market... The lesson of this incident is that these not-so-grossing movies will be released in the future, and they must be accompanied by a blockbuster movie on the same schedule..."

"So, colleagues who released "Hunting", you arranged for "Big Man" to be released?"

"Yes..."After a pause, Shen Mengxi asked again, "How is Tang Yan doing?"

Li Yiping: "It's good, I'm filming "Battle Flag"..."

Seeing that Shen Mengxi was a little confused, she explained: "An anti-Japanese war drama, directed by Mao Weining and starring Wang Lei!"

"Another anti-Japanese war drama?"

"Customized by Jiangsu Satellite TV, a new-school anti-Japanese war drama, the actor returned from abroad, highly educated, well-behaved, and a collection of knowledge, elite, bloody, and tender..."

"Okay!" Shen Mengxi's eyes almost broke the sky: "Don't tell me..."

"Forward to the Artillery Fire" Fan Anti-Japanese Drama - Brush the handsome anti-Japanese!

"After this drama is finished, let Wang Lei act in a few urban dramas..."

Li Yiping also smiled: "Okay, I know." ”

Only from "The Indelible Number", Wang Lei killed eight columns of devils in Hengdian last year, and starred in four different anti-Japanese war dramas, "Chinese Cavalry", "Iron is Burning", "Heroic Mission", "God of War", the good and the bad are mixed, especially "Heroic Mission", he himself complained, that drama is nicknamed "Women's Rangers", a group of beautiful actresses resisted Japan...

If it weren't for the sake of picking up girls, he wouldn't have been able to take this show!

His wife Li Xiaomeng is the female number one in this play...

By the way, these dramas are basically not Tang Ren's main investment, nor are they the work of Mengxi's screenwriting team, or they are just to follow the investment.

Shen Mengxi chatted with Li Yiping for a few words, and then was surprised to see Wang Changtian!

He walked over with a cup: "... Mr. Wang?"

"Mr. Shen!"

"Congratulations, "Lucky Key" is a big hit at the box office. ”

"Thank you. ”

......

If divided into small circles, Dream Creek is quite close to the light.

Many of Mengxi's films have to rely on the distribution agency of the ground network of light, and last year's "The Monitors" and "Twenty Years Old Again" are all under the blessing of light, and the film schedule along the way is okay.

The release of "Lucky Key" this time also has the help of the light team...

However, Lao Wang must have nothing to do but wait for the Three Treasures Palace.

What's more, this is Shanghai!

"I'm here for a meeting, and I heard that you're having a celebration banquet here, so I'm here..."

Have a meeting...

It's supposed to be a roadshow!

This roadshow is not a movie roadshow, but the meaning of publicity, Guangguang Media will be listed in August...

Shen Mengxi smiled: "Tongxi." ”

The light belongs to the joint issuer, basically has no income, and belongs to the minority shareholders...

But the joint production and joint distribution of a big-selling movie is also very good to make a fuss, which is equivalent to a publicity by the company.

Wang Changtian didn't come to the void, and asked directly: "I heard that you won't be able to make movies on this year's National Day?"

"It's not that it's not on, it's just that there is no film schedule for the National Day file, "Source Code" will be released in late September, and "Giant Crocodile Storm" will be released in mid-October..."

"Why is this arranged?"

"You can't beat yourself... We have movies coming out every month. ”

Wang Changtian nodded, and then asked tentatively: "I heard that "The Legend of the White Snake" is looking for a publisher?"

Shen Mengxi snorted: "I know about this, it seems that Bona took it." ”

"The Legend of the White Snake", Mr. Yang spent a lot of money to support his junior, no, it should be a movie in which his daughter-in-law is on top, the stars gather, Li Lian plays Fahai, and even the guest star is Guo Xianni!

"You can't watch this movie?"

"I didn't even look at it... However, I really don't have much interest in movies made by outsiders!"

Wang Changtian breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Our National Day file is ready to be on the "Painted Wall", I am not afraid of other companies, I am afraid of you!"
