Chapter 1016: Someone Stirs Up Trouble (I)

Since the launch of version 1.0, the frequency of updates has been quite high, and the official version number of the Weibo App is 1.570 so far, and a total of 12 upgrades have been completed.

In addition to modifying bugs and improving the user experience, Inspur Weibo has also continued to innovate in terms of functions, especially in the face of strong competition from Feixun Weibo, which has accelerated the speed of updating and upgrading, so that the latter can only imitate and plagiarize step by step.

At present, the number of daily active people of Inspur Weibo has been quite close to Feixun Blog + Feixun Weibo, and the daily active number of Feixun Blog has a very obvious downward trend, in addition to some of the Feixun Weibo that has been led to their own Feixun Weibo, more and more people are "settling down" on Inspur Weibo, and the increase in the certified V number is amazing.

Among them, the "long microblog" function of Weibo has played a considerable role, which is equivalent to being compatible with some of the functions of the original blog, giving users more choices without affecting their own characteristics, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

The author ID of this long Weibo post that made Luo Kai interested is called "marginal little person", certified as a freelance writer, and has more than 500,000 followers on Weibo.

And the title of this "little man on the edge" blog post is: Incredible speed of "Thunder Ops"!

The full text is sprinkled with thousands of words, and its core content is that the filming speed of the popular Spring Festival film "Thunder Action" is too fast, which is completely beyond common sense, which makes people doubt the quality of this blockbuster with an investment of 350 million.

The questioning of the "marginal little people" is not nonsense, he first popularized the production process of commercial films in the first half of the long Weibo.

In general, the production of commercial films can be roughly divided into three steps: the first step is the preparation before shooting, including the concept, writing the story, the outline of the scene, signing the director, making the budget, writing the script, looking at the location, finding the actors, and deciding the members of the production team.

The second step is the formal filming process, which is carried out in an intensive manner under the direction of the director, and the executive producer oversees the financial expenses, the filming schedule and all administrative matters.

The third and final step is post-production, which includes editing, dubbing, soundtrack, subtitling, trailer, and pre-film promotion.

It seems very simple to say, only one or two hundred words can be explained very clearly, but in fact, the work inside is very complicated, especially for commercial blockbusters with huge investments, there are hundreds of members of a crew, and just internal coordination and cooperation is a great test of the director's ability.

In the eyes of the "marginal little people", although Luo Kai has experience in directing movies, his qualifications in the film industry are very shallow, and he may be able to master the crew with the help of others, but it only took more than five months to complete the filming of this blockbuster, which is really incredible.

You must know that "Operation Thunder" is not an ordinary commercial blockbuster, it is a rare military action blockbuster in domestic films, and it is filmed in overseas African countries, and with the participation of the People's Navy, the workload is completely conceivable.

Even if it is a top director, directing and shooting such a complex blockbuster will inevitably take countless efforts and time, and it is normal to postpone and skip tickets.

"Little people on the margins" gives an example here, in 2010, Bandung Pictures invested 300 million yuan to shoot the historical blockbuster "Qin Shi Huang", and the famous director Chen Jiadong directed this film.

Chen Jiadong filmed for 573 days before it was announced, and then with post-production, the film was released in the summer vacation of 2012.

Compared with "Operation Thunder", which invested 350 million yuan and only took more than 100 days to complete the filming, Chen Jiadong must be ashamed of himself.

It's just that "Qin Shi Huang" won more than one billion box office, I don't know how many "Thunder Action" will have!

In the latter part of the long Weibo article "Little People on the Margins", his rhetoric became much more intense, pointing out that Luo Kai, a young director with little experience, is not cautious and serious enough to treat such a national blockbuster, and it is very likely that a serious documentary will be adapted beyond recognition, and finally degenerated into a fast-consumer entertainment film without much connotation and depth plot.

And the "marginal little people" also questioned the investment of 350 million in "Thunder Action", you must know that this movie does not have a strong star lineup, and only Luo Kai and Mo Lan are influential.

Is it because the two of them are overpaid, which leads to a lack of filming funds, so the progress is accelerated?

You must know that Luo Kaike is a director, actor and screenwriter, and the DreamWorks Pictures he controls is involved in film investment, and he has a lot of say in the crew, is there an act of using power for personal gain?

The most important thing is that Hongqi Film and Television and Jiandun Film and Television are both state-owned film and television institutions, and the funds invested in the filming of the film are also state-owned, so did Hongqi and Jiandun effectively supervise the filming of this film?

At the end of the blog post, the "marginal little man" said that the above are his personal speculations and inferences, he is not picking bones in the eggs and deliberately finding faults, and he also hopes that "Operation Thunder", which shows the national prestige and national strength, can be a box office hit and win a full house.

But that doesn't mean you can ignore the problems that may exist!

It's kind of interesting.

It took Luo Kai more than ten minutes to read this long Weibo, and I feel that this is more like an article denouncing himself, and its entry point is very professional, which can be called reasonable, well-founded, foreshadowing, and climaxing, with first-class rhythmic ability.

Nine times out of ten, the "marginal little people" are industry insiders, or there are industry insiders behind them, and the former is obviously more likely.

Luo Kai flipped through some of the previous Weibo content of the "marginal little people" and found that the other party was involved in a wide range, including travel notes, prose chicken soup, film and television reviews, music appreciation, etc., and even comments on current affairs.

It's just that although he has 500,000 fans, the number of comments and retweets on these Weibo is not much, and at most it is only a few hundred or thousand, and the number of fans is obviously quite watery.

However, in less than half a day after this article [Incredible Speed of "Operation Thunder"!] came out, the number of comments has exceeded 10,000, and the number of retweets has reached 30,000+, forming a certain degree of popularity.

Touching his chin thoughtfully, Luo Kai opened the Feixun blog App, and saw the same title on the blog hot search list!

"Little People on the Margins" has 3.7 million fans in the Feixun blog, and his latest blog is also the same content, with 50,000+ comments and hundreds of thousands of retweets!

Seeing such a situation, Luo Kai couldn't help but smile.

What he saw was not the surface of this "little man on the edge", but the huge figure standing behind the other party!

The first one is sent.
