At twelve o'clock in the morning, everything was silent.

But an office in a building is still brightly lit.

Lin Hua stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, silently looking at the brightly lit streets below.

He suddenly wanted to smoke.

But after thinking about it, he held back.

I bet with my son that as long as my son can be admitted to the provincial key high school in the high school entrance examination, he will quit smoking.

I thought it was impossible, but I didn't expect my son to really improve his score by more than 100 points in three months.

So since his son, who is always hot for three minutes, can insist, why can't he quit smoking?

So he quit.

Maybe it's the middle of the night, and even if you go out, you can't find a place to buy cigarettes.

Well, he's a little nervous right now.

This rash transformation to make superhero movies, he doesn't know what the final result will be.

Why Transform?

It's ridiculous.

Because his son is a loyal fan of Fang Bei, and even his son has the perseverance to persevere, it is also because of Fang Bei.

"Because Director Fang said that he didn't think about it, but he can protect other people's dreams! He also said that if you try hard to persevere, you may fail, but if you give up at the beginning, you will definitely not succeed! I don't want to regret it later, so I have to persist now! What if I succeed?"

This is what Lin Hua's son said to him.

It was also because of this that he became interested in other movies.

The so-called "superhero movie" was nothing more than a gimmick in his opinion, and in the final analysis, it was a visual commercial popcorn movie made by a Hollywood-level production team.

No matter how high the box office of this kind of movie is, what artistic value can it have?

Well, he admits that he also has an ingredient in the sour family box office.

But the movies made by this person, he didn't bother to watch them, and he didn't bother to pay attention to them.

But after having a heart-to-heart relationship with his son, he suddenly became interested.

Then after investigating, he found something very interesting.

Farewell...... It is especially popular with young people.

It's strange, isn't it strange that a group of young people watching movies will recognize the director?

And became a fan of this director!

It's almost like a young man chasing idol stars.

Is there really something that children like in Fang Bei? is it a maverick? or what?

So Lin Hua found a movie from Fang Bei's past to watch.

I have to admit that he was moved.

If you don't watch it with colored glasses, Fang's movies are really good!

The patriotic feelings and personal righteousness under the slightly absurd plot of "Captain China".

In the analysis of human nature and the law in "The Shadow of Light", if there is a power beyond mortals, then do we still have to obey the law? personal justice or legal justice, and personal emotion, which is more important? and the influence of the environment on people's growth, and so on.

What is the collision between individual heroism and the rules of the state in "Superheroes", the so-called "Meda"?

and "Your Name" and "The Grandmaster", which were not directed by him, but written by him.

The former is obviously a youth romance movie, but it does not have the so-called "youth" of abortion, messing, tearing, and willfulness in the market.

It's a story of two young people who slowly came together, and the story of helping each other and working hard to grow up after knowing that they didn't match each other's family background.

The latter is an interpretation of a spirit.

What exactly is patriotism?

The difference between martial arts and martial arts, as well as the story of inheritance.

After watching the movie, Lin Hua suddenly felt that Fang Bei was a very in-depth person.

On the surface, he is a maverick and does not care about other people's opinions at all, even at the awards ceremony.

But he really made a difference to a lot of people.

Everyone knows who Wu Kai was in the past, that is, he was arrogant and disrespected the profession of director because of Lu Shengyan as a teacher!

But what about after the contact with Fang Bei?

He became polite, and he even found the true meaning of "director".

Xu Kuangfu, that old guy hasn't been a demon anymore, Lin Hua didn't know until he was eating before that the old man was actually concentrating on preparing the script now!

When did this old man stop rushing for quick success?

and Liu Mang's kid......

I thought of my son and his classmates, who respected Fang Bei, and was influenced by Fang Bei to study hard.

Lin Hua smiled.

It is said that "star idols" are set up, but Lin Hua found that maybe Fang Bei also has his own "personality".

His "personality" is a "superhero".

Although it is the second second, it can imperceptibly affect the real truth of the children.

Fang Bei is the "superhero" of young people.

When he was an adolescent, he could like such a high-quality idol, and Lin Hua was also happy for his son.

Isn't it affected by myself?

Otherwise, he would not have ignored the dissuasion of Lu Shengyan's gang, who were all fifty years old and still in middle school and went to make some superhero movies.

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a knock at the door.

"Please come in. ”

After packing up his mood, Lin Hua sat back on the sofa.

The door was opened, and the assistant walked in with the report, and his face could not hide his excitement: "Director Lin! The box office on the first day is out!"

"How?"

"Our first-day box office is 9.98 million!"

"So tall?!"

Lin Hua couldn't believe it.

Nearly 10 million, which is completely beyond his imagination!

First of all, this is a half-day achievement!

If it's a one-day achievement, let's not say 20 million, let's say 17 or 8 million!

In this way, the box office can almost be hundreds of millions!

And because of the transformation of his film, his past partners are not particularly optimistic. But because the relationship is here, people also invested him a small 100 million.

People are just going to lose money!

But now the box office is close to 10 million on the first half day!

What is this concept?

It means that as long as the box office exceeds two or three hundred million, it will basically not lose!

And now it's almost certain that there will be no loss!

After all, he didn't do much to promote this movie, after all, he didn't have a bottom himself.

In this way, there is also an advantage, that is, there will be no box office Waterloo like before Wu Kai joined Fangbei Company.

The assistant was also very happy: "Director Lin! According to the media's predictions, our single-day box office today may exceed 50 million! The final box office may exceed 700 million!"

"Huh?" Lin Hua was stunned for a moment, "Fifty million?

Even if he didn't transform in the past, his highest box office is more than 400 million. 700 million ...... How is that possible!

"You don't know yet?" the assistant first asked, and then slapped the door of his head, "I forgot, after the movie was released today, you were afraid of being distracted, so you turned off your phone directly." ”

Seeing that Lin Hua was still puzzled, he explained: "You don't know yet, Director Fang went to watch your movie at noon today, and then helped you promote it when the reporter was interviewing!"

"Huh?" Lin Hua was really a little confused at this moment, "What are you talking about...... Could it be Fang Bei?"

"That's right, then which other director can there be?" The assistant took out his mobile phone and clicked on a video of entertainment news for Lin Hua to see.

[Entertainment Beijing News: On August 1, a reporter from this newspaper interviewed Director Fang Bei's views on superhero movies made by other domestic directors in a movie theater near Hengdian Film and Television City, let's listen to what he said.

Fang Bei: 'Huh? What do you think of other domestic directors making superhero movies? Why don't you watch "Hunting the Sky" and not watch your own movie? I've watched the movie samples more than 30 times, and you still want me to watch them? I'm about to memorize the plot. How do you evaluate "Hunting the Sky"? It's good, but there's still a lot of room for improvement. ’

After listening to Director Fang's words, the editor believes that Director Fang's move is a strong platform for Lin Hua's "Hunting the Sky". Although the two of them don't know each other, it seems that Director Fang maintains an open attitude towards other domestic directors shooting superhero movies. I believe that in the future, domestic directors will also be able to make superhero movies that are not inferior to Hollywood, after all, our country is the birthplace of superhero movies!

That's all for this interview.

Our reporter Wu Yan will broadcast the whole process for you in Hengdian. 】

Fang Dao...... Sure enough, he is a good director who is dedicated to the development of the Chinese film industry......"

Lin Hua felt warm in his heart.

The two of them have never known each other in their lives, but because he also made superhero movies, Fang Bei will support him, even if he is actually a member of the Chinese Film Association.

His son didn't like the wrong idol, Fang Bei is really a high-quality idol worthy of being worshiped by teenagers!

Lin Hua raised his head: "Do you have the contact information of Director Fang?" I want to thank him personally, which can be regarded as polite." ”

"Yes, Director Zhang Luo gave Director Fang the contact information before. The assistant took out his mobile phone and called up a phone number, and then handed the phone to Lin Hua.

Lin Hua took a deep breath and dialed the phone.

Soon, it was connected.

Fang Bei: "Hello?"

Lin Hua: "Hello Director Fang, I'm Lin Hua. ”

Farewell: "Uh...... Hello, what are you looking for me? I don't buy shops now, I don't buy tea and stocks, and my car insurance hasn't expired, I'm sorry. ”

Lin Hua: "...... No, I'm actually the director of "Hunting the Sky......"

Fang Bei: "Oh oh! Hello, what is the matter with me so late? If there is nothing urgent, can we talk about it tomorrow?" ”

Can he still sleep...... Lin Hua said with a smile: "Director Fang, thank you for helping me stand on the platform today, I'm still embarrassed, I made a superhero movie without telling you." ”

Fang Bei: "It's okay, it's okay, this thing isn't exclusive to me, everyone is actually happier when they shoot me." ”

Sure enough, as I thought, he is really a good director dedicated to the development of Chinese films...... Lin Hua's tone became softer and softer: "Thanks to you, my box office is almost 10 million in half a day, what is your first-day box office?"

Lin Bei: "I haven't seen it yet, it's estimated to be 100 million smaller." The main thing is that I have a high investment, and this is also normal. In superhero movies, everyone still likes to watch special effects and fights. ”

He's still comforting me...... Lin Hua said with a smile: "Then I wish Director Fang's movie a big hit, I won't bother you first, if you have time another day, I will invite you to dinner, you must enjoy it!"

Fang Bei: "Definitely!"

Hanging up the phone, Lin Hua sighed: "He is worthy of Director Fang, he is really a model for domestic filmmakers!"

He saw that the assistant's expression was a little wrong, and asked, "What's wrong?"

The assistant smiled awkwardly: "Director Fang's movie was the box office on the first day...... It's 3.3 billion ......."

"......" Lin Hua fell silent.

"Director Lin, are you saying that Director Fang is too hypocritical?" Seeing this, the assistant said: "He knows that his current appeal and the quality of the movie, but he said that the box office on the first day was only about 100 million, I feel that he is a little too modest." ”

Generally, this kind of person is called "pretending".

There are many similar examples.

For example, "small goals", "ordinary families", "don't care about money".

Or something like this:

"Alas, my grades are so bad that I want to be a eunuch. ”

"It's okay, don't worry, write well what your grades can improve, by the way, how much do you set?"

"If it wasn't written, it was only 30,000. ”

“......”

That's probably how it feels.

"You don't understand. Lin Hua smiled, "Director Fang is not such a person, he just doesn't want to hit me." ”

Surely, yes!

Director Fang, he just doesn't want to break his confidence in making superhero movies!

After all, how can a person who can say things like "I don't have dreams, but I can protect other people's dreams" be a pretending criminal?

Lin Hua is convinced of this!

............

Seeing that Fang didn't hang up the phone, Liu Mang asked, "Old Fang, who?"

"Lin Hua, said that he was the director of "Hunting the Sky", and it is estimated that I said today that he 'still has a lot of room for growth' to make him unhappy. As a result, he thanked me and posted the box office, I felt that he was pretending to be with me, so he also posted a box office slap in the face with his backhand. Fang Bei yawned, "Wake me up so late, is the box office coming out on the first day?" Let's talk about it, how much is the box office, I bragged that the box office on the first day was 100 million, don't slap myself in the face It's funny." ”

"How is that possible! Our box office on the first day is more than 300 million! Looking at it later, this time we may be able to break 3 billion!" Liu Mang first blew it up, and then said in confusion: "Isn't the phrase 'there is still a lot of room for growth' encouraged? Why do you think he wants to use the box office to pretend to be with you?"

Fang Bei sneered: "There is still a lot of room for growth, which means that there is no room for decline." It's all rotten at home, isn't it all an improvement no matter what? But there is one thing to say, although this sentence is hard to hear, his "Hunting the Sky" is really bad. Two hours of film, I fell asleep at the fifteen minute mark. ”

“......”

Liu Mang was speechless at first, and then he sighed: "Old Fang, when can you change this bad habit of liking yin and yang? Although you don't scold people much, this kind of thing is actually more uncomfortable to say." Aren't you offending people?"

Fang Bei shrugged: "But I'm telling the truth, his movie is really bad enough, do you want me to praise him with a clear conscience?"

"That's the problem. Liu Mang is serious, "Often only the truth hurts more." ”

Farewell: "......"

"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, I'm going to sleep, you can get out of here. ”

Seeing Fang Bei leave the company hall and go up to the second floor, Liu Mang silently lit a cigarette.

"Lao Fang, Lao Fang, you trilogy...... Do you have to break the box office of 10 billion directly?"

Now it seems that there is a lot of hope.
