Chapter 835: The Arrogant Rookie Director! (Second Update)
The night in Austria is full of silence.
It's a beautiful city and it's a city full of art.
To be honest, Lu Yuan likes this city.
The city seemed to give him a strange meaning, and he began to revisit the time he had traversed.
Whether it's Wei Fatzi, Lu Yihong, Shen Lianjie, Li Qing......
Everyone is growing, and of course, he is also growing and working hard.
It's just that he has been growing up with a sense of loneliness, and after a short period of pursuing the happiness of money, the rest is full of endless loneliness, and he always thinks that if one day, I have taken everything out, what should I do.
Thinking about it turns into worry and knots.
This kind of loneliness is really uncomfortable, and he can't say that he is a traverser, if he says so, everyone thinks that he has a brain problem and is locked up.
But now......
He was full of strength, all those worries, those loneliness......
It's all starting to be swept away.
He looked back at Wang Jinxue beside the bed.
Pregnant women sometimes get sleepy, and when Wang Jinxue accompanied Lu Yuan back to the hotel, she slept quietly.
He cautiously got out of bed, and then silently walked to the study next door.
On the desk, Lu Yuan gently picked up the command draft written by Wang Jinxue for himself and read it, and at the same time searched the Internet for a lot of tutorials on conducting and a series of precautions.
Ten days.
He didn't know how much he could learn.
However, Lu Yuan felt that not everything was necessarily the worst and the worst ending.
After all, he is quite talented in music, and he has studied very seriously in Yanying Academy before, plus these days as long as he is free, he forces himself to learn a little knowledge every day, Lu Yuan actually finds that he is not slow to get started, at least he can understand a lot of relevant knowledge, and at the same time, he can simulate it in his mind.
He even carefully planned a detailed study plan for himself, and he no longer thought about what would happen if he failed, how unbearable he would be, and how humiliating he would be.
In a word......
He suddenly realized that what he needed was not too much praise, let alone too much praise.
All he needed was to understand.
After understanding, failure doesn't seem so terrible?
And......
What if it succeeds?
What if, I really can?
"Come on!"
He wrote two words in the margins of the manuscript, then exhaled deeply and began to work hard.
....................................
The month of July is over.
August is finally here.
Lu Yuan lives in the unparalleled deep water in Austria, and every day he learns all kinds of knowledge about the type of conductor like crazy, and there is an unprecedented collision between the film circles of China and Hollywood.
The month of August is a huge battleground.
Li Mingrui silently looked at the poster of his "War Blood 3", and then walked into the cinema to watch the prologue of "War Blood 3" gradually begin.
The cinema is still very lively.
There are many directors who have emerged in Huaxia films in the past two years, but there are only four real cutting-edge directors, Xu Qifeng is one, Jet Shen is also one, Wei Fatzi is one, and Li Qi is also one.
These four directors have all performed well in the Chinese film industry, and have also broken the records of many cutting-edge directors.
In fact, in the past two years, a lot of talents have indeed been born in China.
Li Mingrui was very pleased.
After all, the more cutting-edge directors there are, the more they feel that the rise of Chinese films is not far away......
Hollywood's wreaking days will eventually be broken.
However, when he thought of this, Li Mingrui's relief turned into helplessness......
Among the four cutting-edge directors, there are only two "remote" ones, and Shen Lianjie, who was not very good at "remote", suddenly announced a few days ago that he had terminated his contract with Joaquin and had officially joined "remote".
Well, thinking about it this way, except for Xu Qifeng, almost all of China's cutting-edge directors are "remote".
Is this, you say?
Subsequently, Li Mingrui realized another even more cheating thing!
He originally thought that Wei Fatzi would be ranked first among these cutting-edge directors, after all, he won the Best Director Award in one fell swoop, which is indeed very awesome.
However, he found that he had neglected one person from beginning to end, and that person was Lu Yuan!
Maybe it's because Lu Yuan's other places are too ruthless, and his other identities are too shocking, causing Li Mingrui to almost forget Lu Yuan's other identity.
Lu Yuan himself is also a cutting-edge director who has emerged in the past two years, and his "Pianist at Sea" has also won many awards at the Oscars, as well as a nomination for Best Director......
Although it is only a nomination award, will anyone question the gold content of the Oscar nomination?
Li Mingrui suddenly didn't know what to say, it seems that Lu Yuan, this guy, will get involved in any aspect?
Although it is said that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, the back waves are really too cruel, and they are directly monstrous waves.
"Hoo ......"
Never mind.
Anyway, in short, Huaxia movies are gradually rising, at least their final curtain call, and they don't have to worry about anything like no successor.
Subsequently, Li Mingrui began to watch seriously the picture of "War Blood 3" on the big screen gradually unfold, accompanied by the sound of music.
This is his last film.
He hopes that this movie can really compete with Hollywood!
Win once!
....................................
In fact, Xu Qifeng and Jet Shen both think so.
Although Jet Shen is already a "remote" person, he still hopes to see this "Star Warframe" create value in a real sense and light up his own light.
The feeling that Hollywood is raging in China is very bad, and all directors hope that one day Chinese films can compete with Hollywood.
The situation in the past two years has been much better.
Lu Yuan's movies have suppressed the momentum of Hollywood movies a lot.
However, Lu Yuan is just one person after all, and all directors and fans are proud and have a little sense of loss at the same time.
Can Lu Yuan's movies really represent the overall film of China?
Lu Yuan is so bright, so bright that people don't feel like he is a person......
He's so weird, so weird that it makes people feel like they're not playing the same game.
The rise of Lu Yuan stimulated many directors like a call, and these directors began to try to make movies with quality and hard work.
Right now......
It's August.
August is a day when Hollywood movies are raging and Chinese films are rebelling.
And this year's August is especially important.
This is almost a belief for many people, and they are pinning their hopes on this big war.
If Chinese films can really withstand this wave and be on an equal footing with Hollywood movies, then the future will represent the rise of Chinese films.
....................................
The day passed quickly.
On the first day of the premiere, the reputation of "War Blood 3" was very good, especially some thrilling scenes made of special effects in "War Blood 3", which made all fans addicted, and Li Mingrui's shooting methods were also very good, directly showing what "War Blood 3" wanted to express to the fullest, and at the same time, the ending was also meaningful and unforgettable.
Xu Qifeng's "Alien Creatures" has very good special effects, but the reputation is very average, some people say that this "Alien Creatures" is supported by special effects, but in fact there is no connotation and emptiness, and some people say that this movie is just a pure visual film and has no nutrition......
In fact, "Alien Creature" is not a bad movie, on the contrary, it is better than Xu Qifeng's first two films, but he was released in August, and this ending is a little cheating, after all, his opponent in August is not only Huaxia, but also Hollywood, if you compare "Alien Creature" with Hollywood's "God of War" and "Mars Doomsday" and other blockbusters, there is really a bit of a gap.
There's no way around it.
After all, whether it is Smith, the director of "God of War", and Yate, the director of "The End of Mars", they are all Hollywood comparable to James, and such a powerful director is really too demanding compared to Xu Qifeng.
As for Jet Shen's "Star Wars", the reputation is very bad, although the special effects are very good, but the plot is really empty, and it is not even as good as Xu Qifeng's "Alien Creature", fans don't know what they are watching after watching the whole film, the biggest impression is that everyone is flying around in the sky, the special effects are very cool, very explosive, and then ......
Gone!
"Star Wars" was pulled out by all Chinese fans and scolded fiercely, and even felt that Jet Shen was the worst movie professional among the cutting-edge directors who was the best at making bad movies.
This is not a problem of Jet Shen's directorial level, but a complete script problem......
In short, after the first day of release, when everyone looked at the word-of-mouth list, there was an inexplicable premonition in the Chinese film circle.
Of course......
Everyone is still nervously waiting for the birth of the box office on the film's premiere day
They are looking forward to the results of this encounter!
..............................
August 2nd.
The box office finally came out.
"The End of Mars" won 55 million yuan at the box office on the opening day in China, directly refreshing Hollywood's record in Chinese movies and directly reaching the top, even surpassing the previous record set by Lu Yuan, becoming an absolute hit movie.
"The Advent of the God of War" ranked second, with a box office of just over 50 million, and it also had a brilliant record and exploded in popularity.
The third place "Dawn Island" has a box office of 40 million, which also refreshes the box office record of the same type of suspense......
When the end of the box office rankings came out, everyone looked to fourth place.
They carry the last hope.
Outcome......
They found that the fourth place was not Li Mingrui's "War Blood 3", but a dark horse movie called "Heroic Age" directed by a newcomer with 38 million, and Li Mingrui's "War Blood 3" was second only to "Heroic Age" and got 37 million box office.
The box office of 37 million is already a very good data for the entire "Blood of War 3", and the record is also very good.
But......
He still lost the battle at the box office in the premiere.
Didn't finish in the top four.
Xu Qifeng's "Alien Creatures" also had a good box office, with 30 million, and Jet Shen's "Star Warframe" was not bad, with 25 million......
However, none of this can hide one fact, that is, Huaxia movies finally failed to withstand the impact of Hollywood movies, and the premiere box office still lost.
....................................
August 3rd.
If the first day of box office results was a disappointing day, then the second day box office results are unacceptable.
The top three are still "The End of Mars", "God of War Descends", and "Dawn Island", which are 52 million, 48 million, and 39 million respectively, and the fourth is still the dark horse "Age of Heroes" with 34 million, and the fifth place is "War Blood 3" with 30 million......
As for Xu Qifeng's movie "Alien Creatures", it fell to 25 million.
And Jet Shen ......
Fourteen million!
Under the impact of these blockbusters, Jet Shen's "Star Wars" box office has reached a very dangerous point......
Seem......
It's hitting the street again.
....................................
After Li Mingrui saw this data, he let out a long sigh.
He knows that his "Blood in War 3" really can't beat the three blockbusters in Hollywood.
The investment in these three blockbusters is more ruthless than his own "War Blood 3", and the publicity is also very terrifying.
He Li Mingrui is really not comparable.
The movie war in August should have been lost, and the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
In addition to his own "War Blood 3", which can still be counted as a card, other movies are not even enough to watch at all.
The sense of disappointment is hard to put into words.
Of course, in fact, thinking about it, it's not unacceptable, in fact, his movie box office is also very good, except for Jet Shen's movie is dangerous, other movies are good.
Disappointment is disappointment, at least, Huaxia films are improving, aren't they?
After all, it's a Hollywood blockbuster, and Rome wasn't built in a day.
Take your time.
Li Mingrui breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to get a good night's sleep when his mobile phone rang.
He answered a phone call.
Then, I heard a discordant voice suddenly appear on the Hollywood side.
..........................................
"Dear Mr. Jax, what do you think about the great achievements of your "Heroic Era" in China, and even the veteran director Li Mingrui's "War Blood 3", what do you think about this?"
""War Blood 3" is not on the same level as my movie...... We never wanted to compare with it, I won't compare with any Chinese movie at the box office, after all, there is no sense of accomplishment if I win, after all, it is China and this is Hollywood! My goal is Hollywood movies! I don't want you to confuse my movies with Chinese movies!"
"So, in your mind, there is no comparison between Chinese movies? Do you think Chinese movies are rubbish?"
"I didn't say that, that's what you said...... I just want to say that the box office in August can actually explain a lot of things, we Hollywood, after all, have the right to rule, after all, this is a fact! Moreover, I am very disappointed with Chinese movies......
