Chapter 390: Sharp Edge
are disturbing.
"This is My Student", announced that it was finalized. It will be released on October 7, a week earlier than "Super Body".
This one......
Some people glanced at the introduction and silently looked away. Literary films, even if they are starring Xu Qinglime, so what, they don't need to be beaten at all.
No matter which schedule it is placed in, the box office will not be high.
To be honest, it is estimated that only fans of Xu Qinglime, or fans who love niches, will go to the theater to support similar movies.
For "Galactic Ship", this movie is not even a splash.
In contrast, people who are not afraid of big things when they see the excitement hope that there will be "warriors" who stand up and challenge Luo Tianmu, the big demon king.
After all, everyone is tired of reading the script of the Great Demon King wreaking havoc on all beings. There is a brave man who slaughters the god, even if he is doomed to failure, he can also watch a new one.
Some people turned to distant memories.
It seems that after Galaxy 4, the directors of the same era as Luo Tianmu, as well as his juniors, were completely crushed into slag by him.
One person has suppressed the film industry for nearly thirty years, and no one dares to challenge his authority.
Now the new generation of directors doesn't seem to feel the horror of "Galaxy Giant Ship", and dares to blow the trumpet and attack Luo Tianmu.
A little stupid, but courageous enough.
Many media outlets rushed to report on the incident for fear that there would be no chaos in the world.
The names of Zhou Mu and Yu Nian are frequently reported in the newspapers. The "obscure" soup source has also come into the public's eye.
High-end clubs, some industry bigwigs, talk big.
"It's a gamble. β
"Bet on the galaxy to capsize?"
"It's impossible to win...... A few days ago, I attended the preview screening of Galaxy 7......"
"How?"
Under the gaze of several people, one person sighed, "Jiang is still old and spicy, and Luo Dao deserves to be Luo Dao." The only one who can defeat him is himself. Or...... Lost to time. β
Hearing this, the others were silent, but not depressed.
Isn't that a normal thing?
From childhood to adulthood, they grew up listening to Luo Tianmu's "mythology", and after sitting in a high position, they also had the idea of "slaughtering gods".
However, some people realized the horror of the Galactic Empire and gave up such thoughts. Someone tried it, suffered a huge blow, and didn't dare to think about it again.
All in all, they didn't dare to hope to defeat Luo Tianmu on the frontal battlefield, and only hoped that Luo Tianmu would overturn himself.
After all, the years are not forgiving, Luo Tianmu is old, even if he lives a hundred years old, can he really make movies until he is a hundred years old?
He would, and his family, as well as the company's top management, wouldn't agree either.
Wait for him to retire......
The "Galaxy" series was taken over by another director.
This is everyone's chance.
At that time, it was estimated that there were many film and television companies, desperately fighting for huge risks, and they also had to arrange blockbuster snipers and encirclement of "Galaxy Giant Ship".
Lose and don't say it.
As long as it wins, the company's stock price will definitely explode.
However, that is for later, and we have to be patient for now.
Another person found it strange, "It is understandable that young people do not know that the sky is high and the earth is thick." But Gu Hui of Brilliant Pictures doesn't look like an impulsive person. β
"His company's new film, with an investment of hundreds of millions, can't be faked. Why did you arrange it to be released at that time, is it because the company's stock price is too high?"
Everyone knows that listed film and television companies and movies invested in are closely related to stock prices. Movies are doing well in the market, and the stock price is definitely rising.
Otherwise, it falls.
In many cases, giant companies invest in more than a dozen movies a year, even if they lose ten, as long as one or two movies make a profit, they can earn back the losses.
Even if it's a total loss, it doesn't matter.
Just buy some small companies and expand the so-called territory. This is also good news and can stimulate the stock price to rise.
Of course, with similar means, you will not be fooled if you play too many "leeks".
Therefore, the most stable measure is that the movie has a high box office. Then it is definitely not a wise choice to face "Galactic Giant Ship".
Even if someone saw it, after such a touch of porcelain, Zhou Mu and Yu Nian were laughed at at at the same time, and their fame also soared.
The question is, which is more important than the director's fame and the company's interests?
Several industry bigwigs, either company bosses or general managers, naturally have their own positions, how can they sacrifice the interests of the company and become directors.
In private, they also laughed at Yang Hong. felt that the other party supported two cutting-edge directors to come out, but they couldn't control it, and sooner or later they would make wedding dresses.
"Gu Hui is an old fox. β
Someone pondered it and analyzed: "Even if Zhang Huang falls, but Brilliant Pictures has him, it won't decline anywhere." However, without Zhang Huang's pillar, Brilliant should now seek stability, why is he willing to take risks. β
"No, no, no, did he really listen to the rumors, think that Galaxy 7 is in decline, and want to take the opportunity to pick up the cheap?"
"It shouldn't be ......"
In their impression, Gu Hui was scheming and very cautious, how could he make such a low-level mistake.
Several people were puzzled.
As the saying goes, being smart is being mistaken by being smart. In fact, in their hearts, they also have an idea, but they feel that this idea is unreliable and does not conform to Gu Hui's style.
...... Praise people.
Gu Hui wanted to be the director of the movie "The Lost World", so he arranged the schedule of the movie on November 1.
Such an arrangement seems to roast each other on the fire.
But also to admit it.
If "The Lost World", under the impact of Galaxy 7, can still harvest a certain number of box office results, then Tang Yuan, as a director, will inevitably become famous.
Coupled with the brilliant propaganda offensive, Tang Yuan naturally took the position smoothly.
But......
As mentioned above.
Giving up the company's interests and insisting on the director's superiority, which boss is willing to do it?
Treat others with themselves, they naturally feel that Gu Hui will not do this kind of thing either.
There's no need.
Even without Zhang Huang, Brilliant Pictures has no shortage of directors. The situation of a big director raising a company was many years ago.
Now, as long as you have money, channels, and connections, according to the law of capital operation, you can casually attract other companies, and everyone will invest in movies and share money together.
With huge resources, what director can't be found?
......
"A thousand armies are easy to obtain, but a general is hard to find. β
In a manor with a beautiful environment, Gu Hui and Zhang Huang sat opposite each other and played chess.
Decades of old buddies, during the period of separation, contradictions, disbanded, and re-cooperated. The grievances of two people can be written in hundreds of thousands of words.
Zhang Huang was recuperating at home, and Gu Hui often visited him.
is different from what others imagine, Zhang Huang has never been a simple director, he also has his own ideas in the company's operation.
Otherwise, Brilliant Pictures would not be called Brilliant.
How many of the names of entertainment companies that also started with directors are named in parallel by the boss and the director?
So at this time, Zhang Huang talked eloquently, "No matter what time it is, the core competitiveness of film and television companies is definitely the director." β
"It's just that some directors are just used to fill up the numbers and decorate the faΓ§ade, aiming to tell everyone that the company is wealthy, 'talented', and has a bright future. β
Zhang Huang did not hide his contempt, "To put it bluntly, it is just to raise a group of people and grow their momentum, and they don't want them to make money." β
"Ahem. β
Gu Hui explained, "You can't say that, sometimes...... They can make money too. β
"How much can you earn?" Zhang Huang disagreed, "The small cost is okay, industrial blockbusters, do you dare to let them shoot them?"
Gu Hui suddenly stopped squeaking.
As the owner of a giant company, he is well aware of one fact.
There are few directors in the industry who can make money, and even fewer directors who can make blockbusters to make money.
On the contrary, in the market, excellent directors who make comedies, romance films, dramas, and literary films basically fail when they transform into blockbusters.
From this, we can see how difficult this thing is.
"In the industry, there is an unwritten rule. Zhang Huang said slowly: "Only when you can control blockbusters can you be qualified to be called a great director." No matter how many awards you win, no matter how deep the connotation of the movie is, you can be called a film master, not a big director. β
"Yes. β
Gu Hui also admits this.
"Young director, why doesn't anyone become a big director?"
Zhang Huang continued: "Qualifications are one thing, and on the other hand, they are still short of commercial blockbusters. β
"I understand. β
Gu Hui understands, "Their blockbusters are actually following the old path of their predecessors, and they don't have a pioneering sense of amazement." β
"Yes. β
Zhang Huang thought so, and said with a smile: "Chewing the sugarcane that others have eaten, even if it is still a little sweet, but in the eyes of professionals, it is nothing more than that." β
"To put it mildly, my large-scale scene scheduling, Luo Tianmu's heavy industry to the extreme, as well as Chang He's control of the lens, the perfect symmetrical structure, and the freehand style of ink and wash pursued by Yang Fan......"
He commented casually, with a proud face, "How many directors can do these unique skills? Ordinary people don't understand, scolding us old guys for not keeping up with the times." β
"Humph......"
Zhang Huang was unhappy, "But film history will give us a fair evaluation." When the so-called commercial blockbusters become more and more popular, they will know what the subtlety of the movies we are making. β
Gu Hui put a chess piece on the chessboard, looked up and said, "So you think Tang Yuan can inherit your mantle?"
"What a mantle, there is no such thing. β
Zhang Huang waved his hand, "The director takes the apprentice, and it has always been the master who leads the door, and the cultivation depends on the individual." If the apprentice is like the master, then it will be miserable and he will not be able to eat this bowl of rice. Tang Yuan himself is a genius, do you think he has really just been sitting on the cold bench in the past few years?"
"What suppression, what snow hiding, this is a joke. β
Zhang Huang shook his head, "We don't have any restrictions, who can stop him if he wants to go?" Since he can't stop Mo Huaixuan, naturally he can't stop Tang Yuan. β
In the final analysis, it is he who wants to hibernate and think calmly. β
Zhang Huang sighed, "He is sharpening his sword, enduring five years of loneliness, and hiding a fire in his heart." You also saw the movies he made, how do you feel?"
Gu Hui pondered for a moment before he spit out a few words, "The edge is revealed." β
"Haha!"
Zhang Huang laughed, "So far, among the young directors, I am most optimistic about him, and there is another ......"
"Yu Nian!"
