The Spring Festival is approaching, and "Rejuvenation" also ended the war scene, Li Qian gave the crew a half-month long vacation, and then started work after the Lantern Festival.

From the start of filming on October 8 to nearly four months now, this shooting cycle is long enough for any movie.

There are many transitions, and the fragmented plot is very demanding for the actors' performances and the whole, much higher than normal commercial films, and each plot is enough to expand into a micro-movie.

After 100 days of shooting, Li Qian is also tired, and he should rest and rest.

After returning to the capital, I went to the digital field branch to take a look, and the CG special effects of the characters in the late past 100 days have not stopped, almost a quarter of the way through.

This is a delicate job, the technical difficulty is not great, but it is complicated, that is, the domestic labor is cheap.

Fortunately, there are not many special effects for war scenes, after all, it is a live shooting, not filmed in the studio, and there are not many places where special effects need to be done.

When I returned to the capital, I went to the company first.

The Chinese New Year file has passed, and the Spring Festival file company has no movies released, and there are no major events in other aspects, so there are not many things that Li Qian needs to deal with.

"Thai Embarrassment" still failed to break through the 1.5 billion mark, and it was almost a kick in the door.

However, this box office is enough, enough to make up for the failure of "Waiting for the Wind", not to mention that the box office of "Police Story 2013" broke 500 million, and it also made a small profit.

Overall, the past year has been very successful for Future Pictures.

It's almost the New Year, and the company has also held an internal annual meeting, which has been preparing for a long time, just waiting for Li Qian, the big boss, to come.

The Ritz-Carlton Hotel on the East Fourth Ring Road, where the lively Future Pictures Annual Meeting was held.

As a film and television company, although there are not many artists under the company, it is no problem to sing and dance.

Whether singing or dancing, even if it is cross talk or two-person turning, any talent will be shown on the stage in turn.

The boys basically sing, and the actresses sing and dance in half.

Liu Xing actually came to a thunderbolt, and he danced quite well, and many female employees of the company were screaming behind him.

Li Qian smiled, "I didn't see it, Liu Xing is frizzy, and he dances very well." ”

Xu Zheng also smiled, "Don't say it, it's really good, this kid is like a monkey, I'm afraid he will dance into a monkey show." ”

"Director Li, Director Xu, and Liu Xing also won the championship of "Dance Forest Conference". ”

In the back room, Yang Zhi explained in a low voice.

"Yang Zhi, you belong to the monkey, how much do you have with Liu Xing, one looks like a monkey, and the other is a monkey. Xu Zhengwei said with a smile.

This joke immediately made Yang Zhi a little embarrassed, they have been acting as sisters and brothers for a few years, since they were admitted to the film school at the same time, in the eyes of the outside world, the sisters and brothers have become classmates, this change, many people make fun of them.

"Haha..."

The crowd couldn't help but laugh.

Liu Xing on the stage also finished jumping off the stage at this time, and when he saw that they were all laughing, he couldn't help but feel a little proud.

"Director Li, I'm okay with this jump. ”

Li Qian nodded, "It's good, everyone praised you just now." ”

"Hey, hey..."Liu Xingle sat back.

"Boss, it's my turn. Peng Yuchang got up and was about to go on stage.

"You're going to dance too?"

"I sing. ”

"What song?"

"Last Dance", Wu Bai's song. ”

It is rare for people of this age to sing Wu Bai's songs, but after Peng Yuchang came on stage, he looked like he was affectionate.

So close your eyes for the time being

Floating in the darkness my anticipation

......

After singing a song, Peng Yuchang stepped down to invite credit, waiting for praise with an expectant face.

"How's that going boss?"

"It's okay, it's half the level of Wu Bai. ”

"No, no... I'm still far from it. Peng Yuchang was quite reserved and modest.

Wu Bai's level is half of it, this evaluation is very high, it seems that Li Qian likes this little fellow very much.

Xu Zheng's mouth did not speak.

However, Zhao Liying at the next table spoke up, "Half of Wu Bai, won't it be two hundred and five haha....." As she spoke, she couldn't help laughing.

Everyone was stunned, and after thinking about it carefully, it turned out that Li Qian meant something, and immediately laughed.

The laughter of everyone made Peng Yuchang a little embarrassed, and he glanced at Li Qian with a resentful face, and he didn't dare to refute anything, so he sat down in his place honestly.

These young actors were basically ridiculed and joked, and the scene of the annual meeting was very lively and extraordinary, and the laughter continued.

On the contrary, after Huang Bo, Wang Baoqiang, and Deng Chao performed for them, there were fewer jokes, that is, Tong Liya wanted to pry Deng Chao to do a pole dance, but he didn't do it.

As the big boss, Li Qian also came to the stage to give a speech, encouraged him, and gave out hundreds of big red envelopes, followed by a very ordinary banquet for everyone to eat, drink, and chat.

Chatting, Xu Zheng cared about the comedy in his field, "Director Li, I heard Deng Chao say that "Truman's World" is going to make a sequel?"

Li Qian nodded, "Yes, but I didn't shoot it, Director Zhou wanted to shoot it, and I gave a little idea." ”

"Director Zhou Xingchi wants to shoot?" Xu Zheng was stunned, this is the first time that a big director has made someone else's sequel.

"The follow-up won't be a tragedy, right?" Ning Hao was also curious, it didn't make much sense for this sequel to be made into a comedy, not to mention that Zhou Xingchi was going to shoot it.

"It's a tragedy. Li Qian gave a rough overview of Zhou Xingchi's original script, as well as his own changed ending.

Ning Hao pondered for a moment and said, "This is the opposite of "Truman's World", after the infinite scenery, I was depressed, I also lost myself, and finally returned to the studio, wanting to return to my original life." ”

"Isn't it another ending of "Truman's World", even if you know it's fake, you're still willing to stay in it. ”

"Is it a circle and experienced the beating of society?"

"It's quite interesting, a superstar who is popular all over the world and known to two or three billion people all over the world, and his own business ability is also strong, how to arrange it to be reasonable to become depressed. ”

"Weaving black material and splashing dirty water is the same old thing. ”

"But with so much capital around Truman, the black can be washed into white. ”

Everyone discussed together, and Xu Zheng asked again, "In this case, the whole movie is just a satire, lacking all kinds of positive emotional dramas, and without warmth, I'm afraid the box office will not be very ideal." ”

"It's meaningless to say the box office now, it hasn't started filming yet, and I'll find out until I see the finished film after filming. ”

Li Qian shook his head, common sense comedies, which can be a big hit, are usually divided into two types.

The first is "Thai Embarrassment", which can make people laugh and express various emotions, and it is also positive and warm.

Another kind of comedy is the satirical genre, which Ma Xiaogang is good at, satirizing some hot events at the moment.

It's not enough to be sarcastic, it's all negative things, even if it's funny, it's a big hit at best, and it can't become a hit.

A hit movie is either the ultimate audio-visual effect, or a movie that can touch the audience's inner emotions, and it has to be positive.

Throughout the history of film around the world, there are very few exceptions.

What the sequel to "Truman's World" can be filmed, Li Qian has no bottom, and he doesn't plan to participate, don't make it to the level of "The King of New Comedy".

also chatted about their respective movies, and talked about the upcoming Spring Festival.

"Which movie do you say will be the box office champion of the Spring Festival this time, "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven" or "Aomen Fengyun"?"

""Aomen Fengyun", I have been promoting "God of Gamblers 3", after all, it is feelings. ”

"The screening of "Aomen Fengyun" is not a comedy, the comedy and the gimmick of "God of Gamblers" are funny, and in a trailer, Fa Ge still appears as the God of Gamblers. ”

"I think "Havoc in Heaven" hopes to be bigger, at least 1,000 people out of a thousand people have watched "Journey to the West", and it is suitable for all ages, and the Spring Festival file is very suitable. ”

"It's all IP-oriented movies, and this kind of film depends on whose IP is louder. ”

"Speaking of IP, isn't there another "Where Did Dad Go", this variety show was very popular before. ”

"Variety shows can be made into movies, and "The Voice" hit the street at the box office before, which is really unwilling. ”

"Alas, there are more and more bizarre movies, and there are fewer and fewer pure original films. ”

"Isn't there still the investment of the small blockade king on the side of the Aomen, and the one who opened the blockage can still see the money of the movie, will there be ghosts among them?"

"You mean Xian Qian?"

"Isn't that little plug king nicknamed Xi Mihua, and it is estimated that the purpose is to make money. ”

"Berner wouldn't do that, and it's too obvious. ”

.....

After chatting and talking, the topic was a little sensitive, and Li Qian interrupted their conversation with a loud voice.

"Okay, okay, don't care what others do, but in the future, the industry will get bigger and bigger, and this industry will definitely be targeted. ”

"Who is the car style?" Xu Zheng asked curiously.

"A capitalist, relying on his father-in-law to get on the throne, this is not the point, the key is that even the special effects company has capital to target, although I don't know how they want to operate, but you will encounter in the future, whether it is investment, financing, cooperation, or giving shares for nothing, you will have many hearts, don't be cheated, you can't play capitalists in this regard." ”

.......

After the annual meeting, they went back to their respective families to disperse, and Li Qian accompanied Tong Liya to the cinema to watch a movie.

The movie was chosen by Tong Liya, and it was "Bear Infested: Treasure Raiders and Bear Soldiers".

Entering the screening hall and seeing that most of them were parents with children, Li Qian was speechless.

"This film... How did you remember to watch "Bear Infested"? ”

Tong Liya stuffed a popcorn into Li Qian's mouth, squinted her eyes and smiled, "The box office of "Pleasant Goat" seems to be average, and "Bear Infested" is quite popular." ”

If you come here, you should find your innocence.

The movie is quite funny, anyway, Xiong Da Xiong Er, these two silly bags, and the bald head make the children laugh non-stop.

A little kid in front of him is yelling to pee, and his mother is going to take him to the bathroom.

As a result, the little kid asked his mother to pause the TV first, and his mother said that it was a movie and could not be paused.

The child refused to go to the toilet anymore and kept holding it there.

Li Qian in the back row watched the little kid in front of him writhing around in the seat and holding his urine, and stared intently at the two stupid bears on the big screen, just staring at him all the time.

"What are you looking at?" Tong Liya looked at her, puzzled.

"I see when he can't hold back. Li Qian whispered.

"Poof......

Tong Liya grabbed the Coke in her hand angrily and stuffed the monster into Li Qian's mouth, "Look at other people's children making a fool of themselves, you drink more water and hold it back." ”

Stuffing the Coke to Li Qian, Tong Liya also began to look at the big screen from time to time, and glanced at the little kid in front of her, sitting on the chair as uncomfortable as anything, just refusing to go to the toilet.

However, until the end of the movie, the two did not wait for the child to hold back, and were carried out by his mother as soon as the scene ended.

It's a pity!

"The children are gone, and you are still gloating here, how can you be so bad. Tong Liya said.

"I'm gloating, just trying to see how appealing the movie is. ”

Li Qian spread his hands, "It turns out that this is a movie that can make children hold their urine for an hour, it is really exciting, and it is estimated that it will be able to replace the status of the "Pleasant Goat" series in the Spring Festival file in the future." ”

"You didn't look at it for long. "Tong Liya looks like you don't lie to me.

"You listen to my analysis, children are more accustomed to simple entertainment mode, and it is difficult to retain children's attention if the story plot is slightly more complex, and in "Pleasant Goat", such as what travels through time and space, space exploration and other imaginative design imagination, which seems to enrich the interest of the story, actually makes the audience in a state of continuous loss.

The bear infestation is different, he tends to be more civilian, and the plot is much simpler than "Pleasant Goat", less intelligent, and easier for children to accept.

Moreover, as a parent, I definitely hope that my children can benefit when watching movies and TV, the hostile sides of "Pleasant Goat", although at a critical juncture, wolves and sheep can still work together to survive the disaster, but whenever the disaster passes, the wolf and the sheep will still stand on opposite sides.

In short, the antagonism between the wolf and the sheep is based on eating and being eaten, which is determined by the laws of nature, so that no matter how its story develops, it is impossible to avoid violence without changing the image of the opposing sides.

Unlike "Bear Infested", the goal of the bald head is to cut down trees, and the goal of Xiong Daxiong II is to protect the forest, and the themes of the two animations are very different in nature.

In addition, the bald character arc is obvious, he also cuts down trees to supplement the family, and he also has a gentle and emotional side, and his relationship with the two bears is also friend and foe, sometimes although he is angry, he has never done anything to really hurt them

The story of "Bear Infested" is full of positive energy from the starting point, children are more willing to accept it, and parents are willing to let their children watch it.

This is also illustrated at the box office, the previous "Pleasant Goat" series had no opponents, and one film released during the Spring Festival every year could break 100 million, and it has been two weeks since it was released this year, and it has only been less than 80 million at the box office.

"Bear Infested" has been almost 190 million for two weeks, and the Spring Festival has not yet arrived, so it's no problem to get 250 million, maybe you can rush 300 million. ”

At this time, she was almost good at it in the movie theater, Tong Liya just held her head like this, watching Li Qian talk a lot in Na Luoli.

"Why are you looking at me, let's go?" Li Qian finally finished analyzing.

"It's been a few years, and you're still so long-winded and boring. Tong Liya was complaining in her mouth, but her eyes were shining, staring at Li Qian seriously.

Li Qian shrugged, "It's obvious that you are chasing me." ”

"I just like that you're so long-winded and boring. Tong Liya smiled, revealing two pear vortices and small tiger teeth at the corners of her mouth.
