It's really too difficult to follow the trend to make a "The Wandering Earth", after all, this is a science fiction film, and the requirements for plot and special effects are very high, and the time and energy that need to be invested are also very large, so it is really not a good idea to follow the trend to make science fiction movies.

I don't know what the gang of people who filmed "Galaxy Wandering" think.

Isn't it good to follow the trend and make some low-budget drama comedies? Why do you want to focus on "The Wandering Earth"?

However, for Chen Feng and Beidou Entertainment, maybe this is not a bad thing, after all, after seeing the ending of "Galaxy Wandering", many people probably have to re-weigh the sci-fi projects they have at hand to follow the trend.

In fact, after "Galaxy Wandering" was directly removed from the theater five days after its release because of the poor box office results and the audience's bad reputation, many follow-up sci-fi movies that had been established before were also withdrawn and terminated by investors.

Investors are not stupid, they may have invested in some popular film and television themes with a try-and-see attitude, but after really understanding the real feedback from the market, they only need to understand the relevant information a little carefully, and they will soon be able to figure out what project they have invested in.

Under the guise of making a science fiction movie, take millions, or even tens of millions, from yourself, and then want to make a movie of the same scale as "The Wandering Earth"?

Go to the grave and burn the newspaper, fool the ghost!

In fact, most of the film crews who followed the trend regarded the investors as wronged, got money from them, and then made a film indiscriminately, and finally if the box office was not ideal, they said that the movie was not made well and did not succeed in the end, and then there was no.

The director, crew, and actors all make money, and the loss is the investor.

And this kind of investor is also a layman who doesn't know much about the film and television industry, and they are generally local tyrants and nouveau riche.

These people either have a very wide ancestry, or they have a mine at home, and they have nowhere to spend a lot of money, and then they want to engage in the entertainment industry to improve their taste.

But these people are not all fools, after seeing the failure of "Galaxy Wandering", they immediately began to review some of the projects they invested in with great vigilance.

As a result, many sci-fi film projects that follow the trend and cheat money have been eliminated.

But at the same time, there are also some teams that are really serious about making movies, and they have been dealt a fatal blow.

For example, a crew called "The Moon".

Although the project "Moon" has finally recently attracted investment and officially started to be filmed, this film is different from those projects such as "The Wandering Moon" and "Mars Wandering".

Its main creative team has been seriously polishing the script and shooting plan for a long time, but there has been no market for science fiction themes before, and it has not been able to attract investment after many efforts, and finally it has been stranded.

With the popularity of "The Wandering Earth" and the popularity of science fiction themes, the team of "Moon" also followed suit, and after being matched, it was finally favored by an investment company.

The behind-the-scenes boss of this investment company is a local tyrant engaged in real estate, who basically knows nothing about the film and television industry, and he saw the popularity of "The Wandering Earth" before, and he was a little greedy before he started to do this project, and finally he chose to invest in "The Moon", and he was also persuaded by the people around him to make a decision, as for the specific situation of this project, he himself did not know at all.

But with the failure of "Galaxy Wandering", a wave of anti-science fiction themes began to be set off in the investment circle, and the boss did not hesitate to stop investing in "Moon" when he saw this.

Although he still doesn't know anything about the film industry, he knows that the safest way to do business is to follow the mainstream.

Some people always feel that they have a unique vision and have to go against the current to succeed, but they don't know that the people who follow the general direction are the majority of those who survive, and the vast majority of those who go against the current are drowned.

Those one or two people who are lucky and successful against the current are also the chosen ones, and they are not beyond the reach of ordinary people.

So based on his years of experience, this boss decisively chose to quit this sci-fi trend like everyone else.

As a result, the movie "Moon" also came to an abrupt end.

……

This made the main creative team of "Moon" very depressed.

The main creative team of "Moon" is small, and the core is the screenwriter and director, Li Ding'an.

There is also a core screenwriter, Zhao Xiaoxiao, who is Li Dingan's wife.

In addition to Li Ding'an and his wife, there is also an assistant director, a photographer, and a producer.

These five people are the main creative members of the "Moon" team.

Li Dingan has been in the film and television industry for a long time, and he has made a lot of movies before, but most of them worked for others at that time.

And their own small team was founded four years ago and had already made a suspense film, but unfortunately it was not released in the end, and this "Moon" is a project they have been polishing all these years.

Seeing that his project has money and is about to start filming, as a result, an inferior "Galaxy Wandering" directly upset the sci-fi film market, there is no investment, and the movie cannot be made, no one will be happy when such a thing happens.

Producer Li Zhi was also angry.

"Brother, I've been talking to that boss several times, and people have already withdrawn their investment with an iron heart, and even the hundreds of thousands of dollars spent in the early stage will no longer be pursued, no matter what, they can't be persuaded anyway. ”

Li Zhi is Li Ding'an's cousin and has very strong ability, but now no matter how strong his ability is, the other party has already made up his mind to withdraw his investment, and he is powerless.

Li Dingan nodded.

"It doesn't matter, let's withdraw the capital, in addition, we will make up for the 100,000 yuan we spent before, and we will not take advantage of it. ”

Li Zhi hesitated a little: "There's no need, brother, this is the other party's breach of contract first, don't say 100,000, if it really goes to court, maybe he will compensate us a little more!"

Listening to Li Zhi's somewhat indignant tone, Li Dingan reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

"Return the money, we need this money, but we can't lose our reputation. ”

Li Zhi wanted to say something, but Zhao Xiaoxiao next to him also spoke: "Xiaozhi, listen to your brother...... 100,000 yuan is a small matter, mainly to completely dissociate the relationship...... Remember to save the termination agreement when the time comes. ”

Li Zhi was not stupid, he quickly figured out what was going on, and finally nodded and said seriously: "Okay, I understand." ”

After Li Zhi left, Li Dingan and Zhao Xiaoxiao glanced at each other, and then shook their heads together.

"Don't be too discouraged, let's think of something else. Zhao Xiaoxiao couldn't help but comfort Li Ding'an.

Li Dingan nodded, with an ugly smile on his face: "Well, that's right...... I'll polish the script again in the next few days......"
