Chapter 40: The Bigwigs (4/6 Subscription Request)

The main competition unit of the Shanghai Film Festival is still not welcomed!

This year's jury president is Turkish director Nuri Bigg Ceylon, who won the Cannes Palme d'Or for "Winter Sleep".

It's useless, the Shanghai Film Festival is too close to Cannes, and few master-level directors will give up Cannes and throw themselves into the arms of the Shanghai Film Festival...

Including Minghui's "Youth and the Sea", many people don't know about this movie at all...

……

Compared with the accumulation of large-scale productions and big IP works that cost hundreds of millions of dollars in previous years, the projects released by various companies at this year's Shanghai Film Festival are more pragmatic and down-to-earth: the film list has shrunk rationally, there are fewer PPT projects, and realistic works reflecting contemporary Chinese social issues have become the mainstream;

After the ebb of capital hot money, the industry pattern has been reshuffled, and more real film and television practitioners have been able to settle down and polish their works.

You can see it in the film list.

Adaptations of real events and commercial films with main themes account for more than 25 percent, and suspense crimes, criminal investigation and anti-drug have also become popular themes.

Shen Ming attended the Bona Movie Night, and Yu Dong announced the Pride of China trilogy - "Heroes of Fire", "The Decisive Moment" and "Chinese Captain"...

"Heroes of Fire" is set for a soothing period, and the sword is aiming at a box office of 3 billion...

"Chinese Captain" is set for the National Day.

"The Decisive Moment" may have to be strategically abandoned.

No way, there are too many tribute films this year, "The Decisive Moment" tells the story of the founding fathers who "rushed to Beijing to enter Beijing" and lived in the Shuangqing Villa in Xiangshan and commanded the decisive battle against the remnants of the Kuomintang to cross the river.

There are too few cards, and the leader of the heavenly group plays.

It's hard for such a movie to get a high box office - it belongs to the traditional leitmotif.

The traditional theme theme is a theme between literary films and commercial films, which is a bit like an official article.

It is the kind of work that is strategic, concise, quoting classics, and comparing battles, which is definitely a job with a very high threshold. But in the eyes of ordinary people, the combination of words sprinkled with water is really difficult to chew and digest...

Under the current narrative context, the innovation of major themes is becoming more and more difficult, and the "Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" ten years ago has been the most effective problem breaker.

"The Decisive Moment" is far off...

Why did PropNex do it?

No way, Yu Dong was born in the system, and he has a kind of paranoia about this kind of theme!

"Xiao Shen!"

"Old Yu!"

Yu Dong patted Shen Ming on the shoulder: "... It's a lot stronger!"

"You just say that black briquettes are turned into briquettes!" smiled, Shen Ming said: "... Lao Mouzi saw me two days ago, and he almost didn't recognize me!"

"Lin Chaoxian is too much!"

“… He's also blackened into carbon..."

"He's already black!"

After chatting for a while, Yu Dong said: "This year's summer file is very deserted!"

“… It's a little, I knew that I would have worked hard to set "Flag Guard" in July!"

"You're done with the post-production of the movie?"

"Not yet, how can it be so fast, I'm not Han Shao..."

Ahem...

Han Shao's "Riding the Wind and Waves" and "Flying Life" were all filmed in two months, three months later, and then rushed to land in the Spring Festival file...

Why is it so fast?

Take the money and throw it out!

Therefore, the production cost of "Riding the Wind and Waves" is as high as 160 million, and "Flying Life" is even more expensive...

"I heard you've invested in an animated film?"

Shen Ming explained: "... It's not one, it's a dozen, you said, if you invest in movies, you have to put your eggs in different baskets..."

"Wang Changtian is very optimistic about this "Nezha", what do you think?"

“… I've directly undertaken more than 20 peripheral developments, what do you say?"

Yu Dong was a little surprised: "You are so optimistic?"

“… Not surprisingly, it is not a problem to surpass "The Return of the Great Sage"!"

"Then I see. ”

Yu Dong nodded...

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, Wang Changtian came over with a cup, and Shen Ming hurriedly beckoned to him...

"I... Shen Ming, why are you hacked like this?"

“… Filming is tanned..."

I can't love it, what's wrong with my black spots?

I've never heard that the darker the skin, the more powerful that aspect is!

""Galaxy Cram School" has a good reputation, and sure enough, the first shot of this year's summer file has to be glorious. ”

Yu Dong touted...

Deng Chao's new work "Galaxy Cram School" was originally only screened at the Shanghai Film Festival, but later "Eight Hundred" was temporarily withdrawn, and "Galaxy Cram School" followed up and became the opening film...

It is said that the word-of-mouth is very good - anyway, compared with the first two works of the Deng Dynasty, the word-of-mouth has been greatly improved.

Wang Changtian smiled: "Where can we compare to "Heroes of Fire", we are just a small fight." ”

In fact, the investment share of "Galaxy Cram School" is only 10% of the glamorous media, and they are mainly responsible for publishing...

Shen Ming looked at the two bigwigs with all kinds of modesty, you and I said one sentence, it's really fake!

……

Bona, Guangxian, Wanda, Fujisun Films, Ahri Pictures, equivalent to 211 level key undergraduates, the others are 985 level, Huayi was originally 211, but later slipped down...

The Huang brothers are also here tonight, but they are busy making friends with Fuji Xun and Ahri Pictures...

Today, Huayi Brothers has only 2.6 billion yuan of cash flow in its account, but the debt has reached 7.2 billion yuan. Among them, the non-current debt due within one year is 3.647 billion yuan, and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange is very doubtful about their ability to repay the debt.

What if I can't do it yet?

Bankrupt!

What else can I do?

The Huang brothers can only rely on borrowing money to get by, and the head of the house sells paintings, mortgages villas, and even the future box office income of 10 theaters has been pledged out...

It's useless, its own hematopoietic ability is seriously insufficient!

This year's summer file "Eight Hundred" was withdrawn, and the Huang brothers finalized the comedy film "Gray Monkey" directed by the new generation director Zhang Pu, many film professionals predicted that this movie would have the temperament of a dark horse and hope to become the second "Nobody".

But just because there's hope doesn't mean it can happen!

So, now I have to borrow money.

Yu Dong was also entangled by the Huang brothers, Wang Changtian and Shen Ming chatted about "Nezha"...

"Brother Wang, I'll go to Cannes in two days, you can bring me "Nezha" too, and see if you can sell some overseas copyrights!"

“… Yes... What are you doing in Cannes?"

"'Joker' was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Cannes Film Festival, I have to go to the platform!"

The latest news, "Joker" was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Cannes Film Festival...

Shen Ming, as the starring actor, will definitely appear.

"Congratulations!"

"Thank you..."

Wang Changtian changed the topic and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Shen, what do I think of Weibo, you have a conflict with Du Zhiguo's son?"

Shen Ming waved his hand: "... No, it was a few years ago, and we haven't met or cooperated since then, so there's no conflict!"

"That's good, people have to look forward, always stuck to the past, it's not interesting!"

"I know!" thought for a moment and added: "Thank you, Brother Wang!"

"It's okay, I'm just saying it casually!"

Wang Changtian waved his hand.

After the twelfth episode of "Running Man" was broadcast, Shen Ming's words immediately caused a sensation on the whole network...

Who is Shen Ming?

A brother in the mainland film industry!

Netizens have all kinds of magical powers, and they directly found out that the name that was beeped off was Du Chun!

Following the knife, Du Chun became popular again.

And there is a tendency to set the prairie on fire...
