Chapter 8: The First Wave of Propaganda (part 2/5)

A person's mindset changes with who they are.

For example, I, a reader, is also a writer, when chasing books, the most annoying thing is the broken dog and the two gentlemen, you will die if you step on the horse and write more?

From the first day I became a writer, I swore that I couldn't update less than 10,000 every day!

Later, I really became a writer, and I have a group of regular readers, after the 10,000-word update, I also hope that readers can see my sincerity...

Please, don't scold me for water...

Lu Xiaoran's change in mentality is very logical, the so-called food and clothing thoughts, hunger and cold steal hearts, probably so!

In a word, floated ...

There is a kind of sunflower in my hand, and I feel like the world.

In this case, there are two ways to choose, either live in seclusion in the Black Wood Cliff, find a man, and help him embroider to live, or, choose another more advanced goal, dominate the martial arts, you have to dominate the world...

Translating is to do something for Chinese films.

However, at the moment, Lu Xiaoran has not reached this level, and he is still reflecting on himself...

......

Shanghai Film Festival, the full name of which is the Shanghai International Film Festival, is one of the first 15 international A-category film festivals in China to be recognized by the International Film Producers Association.

At the beginning of its establishment, the slogan was to create a Cannes Film Festival that belongs to China.

It's a pity that there are very few followers ...

There is a saying in the industry: "Shanghai International Film Festival", which is the kind of film festival that is embarrassed to be printed on the cover of DVD even if it wins an award.

It's not as good as the golden rooster and a hundred flowers!

But it's not without merit at all, at least for the majority of fans, its world screening unit and classic restoration unit are really great, because these films are often impossible to get the share of imported films, so the Shanghai Film Festival makes up for this regret.

In fact, if the Shanghai Film Festival wants to become bigger, it is very simple: as long as a new rule is added, all the shortlisted works of the Shanghai Film Festival, or the award-winning works, can be released in China...

But this is not possible, because there is no censorship right at the festival!

You said that I brought my own films with a small film company, and you told me, I'm sorry, we can't release your movies here, you can only buy Chinese movies and play them back, just ask, what other powerful director is willing to waste his time?

So if I'm a new foreign director or a director with a mediocre reputation, the way I come to the festival is: I bring my film, show it twice, and then eat a xiaolongbao, and I'll get out. There has been no real progress, no commercial exchange, not even an artistic exchange. So what am I here for?

Coming all the way to China to eat xiaolongbao?

However, there are many Chinese stars who come to the festival every year - no matter how you say it, it is also an international A-category.

has been completely reduced to a Chinese film show, and many upcoming new films will use the Shanghai Film Festival as a position for publicity.

As a result, Huayi brought "Tangshan Earthquake", "Di Renjie's Heavenly Empire", "West Wind Spirit" and a group of main creators to win a lot of attention;

Pony Bento also brought two movies "My Fair Gentleman" and "Mountain Youth" supervised by Wu Yusen...

Orange Images, Lu Xiaoran personally led the team and brought three movies: "Big Man", "33 Days of Broken Love" and "Lonely Agent";

Bona bet on "Laughing Jianghu" this year, and Guangguang Media has "Jingwu Fengyun Chen Zhen"...

It's very lively, and it occupies a lot of plates!

It's embarrassing, the film festival is positioned as an international film festival...

It's not so much an international film festival as a Chinese film hypermarket.

......

The press conference is much the same, that is, the release date is announced and the box office expectations are discussed.

"Big Man" is set for June 18th, and the Shanghai Film Festival is an important publicity position - the closing film of the Shanghai Film Festival!

This movie has been secretive since the beginning of the project, and the five-minute film was exposed, and the reporters in the audience were a little confused, not shocked, but... The plot is too old-fashioned: the police outwits the rich second generation?

The routine of old-fashioned Hong Kong films!

"New Police Story" can't do it, why do you think Orange Images can get 200 million box office?

Do you think it's okay for Lu Xiaoran to play the villain?

Wu Yan's group has also acted!

Zhong Lifang explained: "Although the plot of "Big Man" is simple, but the things involved, including police and bandit collusion, power and sex trading, and power and money trading, are the first commercial films in the mainland to be positively depicted in the mainland.

"At that time, I reflected to the peak why South Korea could shoot, but we couldn't..."

That's right, the review came out and took the blame...

Every time Hua Yi makes a film, he has to drag the censor out and whip it, and Orange can also use this set!

This is the way to hit the hype that has been determined from the beginning... No, it's propaganda...

A reporter questioned, "Can such a simple story move the audience?"

Zhong Lifang said directly: "Is the story of "Avatar" complicated? Commercial genre films pay attention to empathy, as long as the audience is moved, they will be willing to buy tickets for micro-movies!"

"Isn't your 200 million goal a bit exaggerated?"

"It's not an exaggeration, the "Time and Space Love Traveler" that is filmed and played can get 256 million, and it doesn't make sense that this hard-working "Big Man" can't get 200 million!"

Filming and playing "Time and Space Traveler"...

Zhang Weipin will cry...

"What about Lu Xiaoran?"

"He just finished the filming of "Lonely Agent" recently, and he can't play a little bit, and he is recuperating, so he is resting in the hotel, and he will participate in tomorrow's forum activities!"

"Can't play?"

There is something to write: Shocking Lu Xiaoran because of the filming of the new drama, she was deeply depressed and couldn't extricate herself...

"It's okay, I'll play two love light comedies next, so I should adjust my mood. Among them are spin-off films of "The Age of Fruit Marriage"..."

"Spin-off films?"

"Xiao Ran said that he originally wanted to write about Liu Yiyang and Tong Jiaqian's breakup when he wrote "The Age of Fruit Marriage", but he was afraid that the audience would not accept it, so the TV version is a happy ending, and the movie version will be another ending, I hope everyone will pay attention to it then!"

The conversation was almost over, Zhong Lifang stopped the conversation and entered the next process, and the film list was announced...

......

Hotel, Lu Xiaoran is confirming his itinerary.

Tomorrow there will be a film forum section, Han Sanping, Wu Yusen, Wang Xiaoshuai, and Chen Jiashang will all attend.

He was required to prepare his speech in advance.

Do you want to pretend to be a force?

Be a prophet?

'Speak, prophet!'

Say in advance that BAT will dominate the film industry... Forget it, Ahri hasn't hit the market yet!

There are too many things in my head, let's listen to what they say first, and when the time comes, just throw out one or two opinions and directly shock the audience!

The mobile phone rang, it was Han Sanping, and Lu Xiaoran connected: "Hey, Director Han... I'll be there right away!"
