Yesterday's dinner party of the animation department of "The Return of the Great Sage" was quite hilarious.

Lin Chen also gave two days off to the people in the animation department.

They've done what needs to be done.

I'll leave it to him.

"Director Lin, you drank so much wine yesterday and you can still have nothing to do today. ”

Yuan Ye looked at Lin Chen and admired: "It's amazing." ”

"Alright, I'm not going to drink again. ”

Lin Chen waved his hand slightly: "Drinking alcohol really hurts your body." ”

Yuan Ye pursed his lips.

Which time didn't Lin Chen say so at the finale banquet?

Scold.

Man.

If you can believe this, the sows will be able to climb the tree.

Shaking his head slightly, Yuan Ye was too lazy to dismantle Lin Chen.

After all, who made Lin Chen the boss.

So he got down to business: "Are we going to get the hype?"

"It's okay, and it's not just about starting publicity, this time the publicity and distribution costs have to be smashed. ”

Lin Chen said with a smile: "The anime can't afford to lose, to be precise, the audience's expectations can't be hurt, so this time the announcement of "The Return of the Great Sage" must be sincere, what we have to do is to let everyone know that we are seriously making this movie, and at the same time, we must let other peers watch it." ”

Speaking of this, Lin Chen paused and continued: "That is, the anime is not dead. ”

Yuan Ye nodded lightly: "I know." ”

If you want to save the market and revive anime, you can't just brag.

Let the facts do the talking.

Later, the official Weibo of "The Return of the Great Sage" also published a set of posters, and said: "The return of the Great Sage, you are in a hurry." ”

It's a nine-square grid.

Monkey king.

Jiang Liuer.

Pig.

One of the characters is all on the stage.

Then netizens entered a state of confusion.

"We didn't wait, the themes of Journey to the West are fucking rotten, who will see it. ”

"Yes, this one is sick, who started to use Journey to the West's IP circle to make money again?"

"I don't understand, damn it, the courage is really big. ”

"Haha, yes, I also feel quite brave to dare to shoot the theme of 'Journey to the West'. ”

"Even Xia Ran's "Marshal Tianpeng" hit the streets, where did this movie get the courage? You think you are Lin Chen. ”

......

Because the official Weibo of "The Return of the Great Sage" did not say anything, nor did it promote much, this caused a misunderstanding, and many people thought that this movie was invested by an unknown animation company.

The industry's view is which one of these two flutes.

No, Li Yan, the boss of Huohai Animation, also shook his head slightly.

It's death.

"Hehe, it's really commendable to shoot the theme of Journey to the West at this time. ”

Li Yan said to everyone in the conference room: "Everyone must take warning, the market is ever-changing, and we must firmly follow the market, which must be on par with Lin Chen, so we will do a good job of this anime that follows the trend in our hands." ”

Everyone also nodded.

And at this time.

Lin Chen reposted a Weibo with an ID named 'I want to give birth to a monkey for Lin Chen', and wrote: "Thank you for lifting up, I am the screenwriter and producer of this anime, I hope you can like it." ”

Yu Linsheng, who was drinking water at home, looked at this Wei Bo and almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

He was also discussing with others who filmed the IP of Journey to the West, he was really a stinky idiot.

It turned out to be a big for me.

It turned out that Lin Chen was the screenwriter.

In other words, this is invested by Xinghuo Film and Television.

Wear.

Yu Linsheng pondered for a moment and forwarded Lin Chen's Weibo: "If it were someone else, I might think he was crazy, but Director Lin actually wanted to shoot the theme of Journey to the West, and I still personally supported it."

It can be said that Yu Linsheng's words represent the thoughts of many Lin Chen's fans.

Other people's animations with the theme of Journey to the West may be Erlenzi.

But Director Lin is definitely not.

No way.

In the eyes of most people, our Lin Dao is awesome.

If you are not convinced, you will first make a series of blockbuster and well-known film and television dramas.

The current mentality of Lin Fan is quite confident.

Our Lin Dao not only likes BB, but is often quite capable.

But whether it is the onlookers or the industry, they are all slightly puzzled at this time.

Everyone also admits Lin Chen's ability in the animation film "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", but that's all.

According to the previous discussion, many people think that Lin Chen should create a few more cartoons before going to the big screen.

After all, accumulation is king, isn't it?

But who would have thought that Lin Chen was a master who did not follow the rules.

Especially if you want to shoot a movie with the theme of Journey to the West.

This is really not afraid of death.

How did you forget the 'silver lining'?

How long has it been?

Today's Internet is still a little sorry for the fall of the towering tree of 'A Line of Sky', which was once a national man, and many people think that if Xia Ran's steps are not too big, then this egg may not necessarily be crossed.

The result?

In the blink of an eye, Lin Chen, who had already acquired the animation department of 'First Line of Sky', also announced that the first film after the acquisition was about to start.

It's a coincidence.

It is also themed on Journey to the West.

Is this going to be hairy?

Especially in the anime circle, many people are quite puzzled.

Li Yan, who had just praised Lin Chen, almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood: "This, this, what is Director Lin going to do?"

Everyone else was puzzled.

Li Yan thought about it and felt that he had to do something as a member of the anime.

So Li Yan also posted a very emotional letter on Weibo.

In this letter, Li Yan said in detail about Guoman's decline from its former glory to decline, of course, there are some policy pots, but more because everyone has always had a kind of self-confidence, thinking that China is so powerful for five thousand years, etc., it is similar to the Qing Dynasty's closed country, which led to a period of stagnation in Guoman.

When it comes to redevelopment, many people seem to be awakened by a slap.

It turns out that in the past few years, foreign animation has already developed like a sports car, and then look at the domestic ones.

That's exactly the case, Xia Ran once injected a dose of strength into Guoman, but he never expected it, but Xia Ran ended up with such an ending.

In this regard, Li Yan always felt that Xia Ran had done nothing wrong, and Guoman must have a very awesome work if he wants to develop.

But it was doomed to fail miserably.

Even if Xia Ran is defeated, Li Yan feels that everyone should applaud Xia Ran, after all, Xia Ran regained the confidence of many Guoman people, including him.

At the same time, it is precisely because of Xia Ran's defeat that Li Yan believes that everyone should draw a lesson from it, that is, audiences who like Guoman are already disappointed.

......

This sprinkling letter can be summed up in one sentence: "Director Lin, we support your filming of "The Return of the Great Sage", but I hope you must not make a desperate bet, of course, if possible, this movie will not be released." ”

Don't say it.

This is really fucking approved by a lot of people in the anime circle.

Everyone is talking about the same tone as Li Yan.

For example, "Guoman's audience is already disappointed, don't enlarge the screen in this movie." ”

For example, "Guoman is like this now, if it is put on the big screen again, then I am afraid that the defeat of Guoman will be even worse." ”

For example, "I hope Director Lin can face up to his responsibilities, and don't make such a desperate bet again." ”

......

Check it out.

At present, this is the public opinion environment of Huaxia Guoman, and everyone is already afraid.

Not only are they afraid, but they also want to pull the people who want to continue to admit defeat.

Lin Chen had expected such public opinion, which is why he has always wanted to shoot "The Return of the Great Sage".

Because this movie can give confidence to this market.

But he never expected such a state in the anime circle.

What's wrong?

Eggy?

It's true that we are not competitive at present, but is it because of this that we are afraid to innovate and change?

Or even to give up the good market to foreign countries unchanged?

even said that the audience of Guoman can't afford to hurt, so don't shoot anymore.

.

Lin Chen always felt that what Guoman audiences really couldn't afford was the loss of confidence in the industry, and even directly admitted it.

Don't release it if you're afraid of hitting the streets?

Funny.

Do you stop driving because you're afraid of getting into a car accident?

Don't you go out because of the danger outside?

Do you divorce because your wife is a brother-in-law demon?

Don't you break something because you're afraid of pain?

So later, under Lin Chen's instructions, Xinghuo Film and Television's official Weibo also said again: ""The Return of the Great Sage" is a 3D animation movie, and it is also an animated film written by Lin Chen and directed by Han Yang with an investment of more than 100 million, we believe that Guoman will never die, so this movie is to tell everyone that the Great Sage will not die, Guoman will not die, and now the Great Sage has returned, and Guoman is also here. ”

This Weibo also cooperated with the release of the first trailer.

The most hanged Monkey King.

The cutest Tang monk.

The funniest Zhu Bajie.

......

Looking at this 48-second trailer and the picture of the 9-square grid, I have to say that Yu Linsheng is interested.

He is confident in Lin Chen.

This kind of self-confidence is not blind, on the contrary, it has been accumulated in the past 5 years from "Soul Ferry" to the present.

Let's put it this way.

Lin Chen never disappointed Yu Linsheng.

In this regard, how could Yu Linsheng be confident?

However, looking at the trailer and pictures, Yu Linsheng is still a little puzzled.

This Tang Seng is a child?

On the other hand, there are more discussions on the Internet.

"Yes, it seems that we have said it in vain, Lin Chen really won't change himself. ”

"You should be mentally prepared, after so many years, when has Lin Chen changed. ”

"Hehe, that's right, he really never changed himself. ”

"I can't say that, I think Lin Chen is confident. ”

......

"Upstairs, you guys who say that anime movies are going to fail, I look down on you. ”

"That is, why do you say that you will fail? I think I will definitely succeed. ”

"I believe in Lin Chen. ”

......

There was a lot of discussion on the Internet, but the industry was still pessimistic about this matter.

"It's over, whoever shoots the theme of Journey to the West will die. ”

"Alas, I really didn't expect Lin Chen to swell to shoot a movie so early. ”

"I think Lin Chen may have done it because he likes the theme of Journey to the West. ”

......

In the midst of many pessimistic discussions, Dongfang Ming said in an interview: "I said that you don't remember to eat or not, when did Lin Chen suffer a loss? Last time, many people ridiculed "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf"? What is the result? How long has it been, and you are not afraid of being slapped in the face if you jump up so quickly?"

There are many people who have the same view as Dongfang Ming.

Like the Luo's brothers, like Lu Wei, like Xie Jing and so on.

These are all those who have suffered from Lin Chen's losses.

So until they see the finished film, they will not express their opinion.

As for the propaganda, it was not put down.

Lin Chen doesn't want to be just children.

Feelings.

This is the easiest way to get everyone's approval.

Let's put it this way, in China for 5,000 years, the image of Sun Wukong is deeply in everyone's heart.

Great Sage.

This represents rebellion.

Even compared to foreign heroes, the local heroes in China must have great sages.

So the publicity and distribution expenses were spent.

With a production cost of 120 million, the current publicity and distribution has smashed 30 million.

At present, Lin Chen has no intention of stopping.

This made Yuan Ye almost distressed to death, although the box office share of the movie "People in Embarrassment" has arrived, but we can't squander it like this.

If it goes on like this, it won't be long before it is squandered.

After all, the box office share of "Flash Girl" is still early.

Next, the announcement of "Soldier Assault" has not yet started.

Lin Chen really didn't know that firewood and rice were expensive.

It's a pity that Yuan Ye understands that he can't convince Lin Chen at all.

He had to bite the bullet.

Anyway, it's a big deal that "The Return of the Great Sage" hit the street, and then Xinghuo Film and Television was greatly damaged.

At most, it has become a joke in the industry.

CEOs are not afraid of being embarrassed.

What is he afraid of?

That being said, Yuan Ye was still very serious about doing things.

Failure is just a strategy.

What if he continues to slap himself in the face this time, and "The Return of the Great Sage" succeeds?

For this reason, Yuan Ye is seeking the release of "The Return of the Great Sage".

Imperial Capital Film and Television is indeed interested in "The Return of the Great Sage", but they already have two movies in the Qixi Festival, if this is another movie, then Feng Qiang has to eat whatever he says.

It's nothing but an animated movie.

That's dispensable.

Feng Qiang sighed: "Why don't you delay the release for a month? ”

"Thank you, Mr. Feng, but our opinion is that it should be released on Qixi Festival. ”

Yuan Ye shook his head slightly and said, "I hope to cooperate next time." ”

Yes.

Lin Chen's plan is to let "The Return of the Great Sage" be broadcast on the Qixi Festival.

Think about it, he has fought many times in the Qixi stall.

Then this time is naturally no exception.

Since the imperial capital film and television can't be negotiated, there are several others.

The results proved that sentence once again.

It's not profitable, and it's too early.

These companies are also very direct, if this is not an animated film, they are willing to release any one.

But animated movies forget it.

In this regard, Yuan Ye was not surprised.

However, what Yuan Ye didn't expect was that Jihai Media would take the initiative to come to the door.

......
