Chapter 233: Domestic Public Opinion (1/8)

After the 'Orange Movie Night', Lu Xiaoran began to make more public appearances...

You have to show your presence!

Let the judges know you're working hard to win the prize!

It's called PR...

He has been interviewed by many media outlets, both overseas and domestic.

The domestic media chose Fujisun News...

This year, known as the year of the rise of the Chinese-speaking corps, has been featured in many media.

"The Dark Side", "Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart", "Heaven is Destined", "Blind Detective", "Crossing the Line"...

Of course, "Crossing the Line" was shortlisted for the "Un Certain Regard" unit, and "Blind Detective" was shortlisted for the "Midnight Screening" unit...

"Blind Detective" is really a very ordinary commercial film, and Adu has been a little off track in recent years...

"The theme of "The Dark Side" was what I wanted to do at the beginning, because the investment is relatively small, it takes place in a room, and it can be made into a thriller crime theme... Later, because of the filming of "Rescue Mr. Wu", the movie was a big hit, and I didn't really want to take the thriller route, so I changed it to a manifestation of voyeurism. ”

"What do you think of "Heaven is Destined"?"

"If you talk about movies alone, it's a bit too symbolic, four short stories, black comedy, but not black enough..."

"Then do you think a movie like "Heaven is Destined" can appear on the Chinese screen?"

"I won't talk about this!"

"Do you know about "Iron Man 3"?"

"Yes!"

The Chinese special version of "Iron Man 3" forcibly inserted some Chinese actors, but the audience will feel a little soy sauce after watching it, and even a little out of touch...

I was spit out in various ways!

This is also the main reason why "Iron Man 3" was so fierce in the early stage, and the box office has been a little weak recently-400 million box office in the first week, as of the 14th, it was released for 13 days, with a cumulative box office of 620 million, and the single-day box office has already fallen by more than 10 million...

"What do you think of co-productions?"

"In fact, the reason why "Iron Man 3" forcibly installed Chinese actors is actually that there was no intervention in the early stage of project development, and he did not intervene until a very late stage, so that basically the creativity and script have been formed, in the case of molding, you go to change his structure to join the Chinese, itself is relatively blunt, there are certain difficulties, you have to force it, it will be like this... In co-productions, you have to see who dominates and who the main market is for, and the aesthetics of Chinese and American audiences are different, and the censorship is not the same. ”

"We're curious to know, how did you find out about a movie like "Latent"?"

"I didn't find out, it was Wen Ziren who came to me with the script, so I invested, and our strategy in North America is to only make films with an investment of less than $15 million for the time being. ”

After a pause, Lu Xiaoran continued: "Hollywood has always pursued big movies, big productions, and big scenes. But we're different, we make a lot of "3-5 million" small films. This production cost is carefully calculated. Within this range, even if the movie is smashed and not released, it can barely recover the cost by selling the copyright to major websites. More than a dozen movies are produced every year, most of which suffer a slight loss, but there are always one or two hits, and you can get dozens of times the income. ”

"So..."

"I'm talking about the premise of being able to hit the blockbuster, if you don't bet on the blockbuster, the money will be wasted, and there are a lot of movies that lose money every year in North America!"

......

The interview was immediately sent to China and published in the 'Interview with the Stars of the 66th Cannes Film Festival'.

And it's the cover - the original cover was directed by Lee An-dae...

There was a lot of discussion, and he answered the more popular topics.

Let's say "Iron Man 3", let's say "Latent"...

The production cost of "Latent" is 3 million US dollars, the North American box office has reached 50 million US dollars, and the global box office has exceeded 100 million!

Earn over!

Lu Xiaoran proposed: 'But we are not the same, we will produce a large number of "3-5 million" small movies. 'It has been cited by many filmmakers as a new way for Chinese capital to enter Hollywood...

The market value of oranges has approached 50 billion, opening a gap of nearly 10 billion in the second place Huayi!

Even the market value of Orange Games has risen a lot...

But Wang Tearing Onion, who is known as the Discipline Inspection Commission of the entertainment industry, doesn't know which tendon is wrong, and openly questioned this sentence: "You can only fool the Chinese people who don't know how to do it, do you know how difficult it is to suppress explosive models?"

Of course, this sentence is no problem, it is the truth that it is difficult to make a hit!

However, few netizens supported his remarks...

Lu Xiaoran's fans even scolded him directly: It's too floating! My husband has heard too much about the name of the country, and he really thinks that he can represent the people? That's luck, and it's even more admirable to start a business from scratch with your own efforts.

'Tsk, one relies on the brain, the other relies on Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu actually despises the one who relies on the brain!'

'Lu Xiaoran made money in every movie he invested, and then he continued to invest in movies and build a film industry chain, you have to have the ability, you also invest in movies, but unfortunately, you will only take the money to have a party...'

In the past, people who were only passive in the field of public opinion never stupidly scolded some positive characters - I am a sling silk substitute...

Actually, there is a gross difference between such a person and a keyboard man, the difference is that this keyboard man is rich!

Zhong Lifang replied: "We have a professional review system, "Human Removal Plan" will be released on June 7, "The Conjuring" will be released on July 19, "Happy Death Day" will be released on October 11, and "Fifty Shades of Grey" will be released on November 1, making movies is not something that can be done with just one mouth!"

The king tore the onion and shut up...

Public opinion was biased towards Lu Xiaoran, and then deleted Weibo...

He's just trying to be quick...

Of course, he was a little unhappy to see Lu Xiaoran - don't pretend to be forced with him!

......

On the afternoon of the 14th, Zhang Jin received the news that "Dark Side" and "Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart" both received tickets for the closing ceremony, in other words, they won the award!

A change from the low-key of recent days...

After the score of the house magazine was released, the scores of "The Dark Side" and "Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart" were not bad, especially Yan Bingyan, who had almost booked the Cannes actress...

Orange is very calm, and even Zhong Lifang deliberately contacted the media to press down, so as not to lose face when she gets it.

Now there is no need to keep a low profile - directly announce the news of the awards of "The Dark Side" and "Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart".

It's just what the award is, it's not yet decided!

Anyway, Yan Bingyan is a proper actress, as for "The Dark Side", it's hard to say...

A bunch of Lu Xiaoran's fans on Weibo have climaxed, saying what 'the boss is definitely crowned the Palme d'Or this time', 'the first person in mainland movies'...

Palme d'Or, how dare you think!

......

MK2 is not without thinking about operating the Palme d'Or...

It's so hard!

And it's not the seventies and eighties of the last century, when double yolk eggs were a feature of Cannes:

At the 32nd Cannes International Film Festival, "Tin Drum" and "Apocalypse Now" jointly won the Palme d'Or;

The 35th Cannes International Film Festival has opened two more double yolk egg Palme d'Or "The Great Disappearance" and "Freedom Road";

Including the time Lao Chen won the award, the Palme d'Or won together with "Farewell My Concubine" and "Piano Lesson";

"Adele's Life" has locked in the Palme d'Or, and, frankly, "The Dark Side" explores something too simple and lacks a sense of form.

Spielberg doesn't play the double yolk egg set...

However, Christian Mongi and Nicole Kidman are said to love this movie and highly recommend it...

Generally speaking, if one or two judges are particularly fond of a certain movie, they will give a special jury prize to comfort them.

The media also predicted the same thing, or gave the best screenplay award...

By the way, "Heaven is Destined" also received an invitation...

Three mainland films received invitations to the closing ceremony at the same time, and it really feels like the heyday of Chinese films is coming, but "Blind Detective" and "Crossing the Line" are very embarrassed to leave...

In such an atmosphere, on the 15th, Cannes ushered in the closing ceremony.
