No matter how good the project is, no matter how loud the topic of creation is, after the turmoil, it is still necessary to calm down and spend time and money to create the work.

There are not many film festivals in the world, and the most influential is the Oscar, and then the three major in Europe.

On the Asian side, the Tianhai Film Festival has developed very rapidly in recent years with the outbreak of the Chinese film market, coupled with the fact that the Tianhai Film Festival has been adhering to the positioning of "based on Asia, paying attention to Chinese films, and supporting newcomers".

There are 3 recognized A-class film festivals in Asia, one is the old Tokyo Film Festival, the other is the New Delhi Film Festival in India, although the Tianhai Film Festival is relatively new, but because the Chinese market is too attractive, the Tianhai Film Festival can invite many international directors and Hollywood superstars every year.

"Once Upon a Time 3" is the opening film of this year's Tianhai Film Festival, and the main creators of the crew of "Once Upon a Time 3" are here.

Although compared with the first two films, the third part feels to many people and is beginning to be more in the category of kung fu films, but in terms of the projection effect in the screening hall, because there are more fight scenes and more exciting, the audience is more and more refreshing.

This is Wu Tian's first film as a director and starring actor. Of course, the sequel will inevitably be compared to the previous two.

Although the scenes are more exciting and there are more fight scenes, it is more and more towards popcorn-style movies.

Wu Tian said in an exclusive interview: "The first time I became a director, I was actually very nervous, Director Lin completely delegated power, which made me even more nervous, for fear of messing up the "Once Upon a Time" series. ”

"Many people have reported that compared with the first two, it seems that the third part has a lot less connotation, and it is more of a popcorn-style commercial film, what do you think?"

"This is normal, what I am good at is action, everyone knows that I am a martial arts instructor, and I am not good at literary opera, whether it is acting or directing, so I can only use my strengths and avoid weaknesses and start in my own best field. ”

"Lin Dong is very supportive of me, according to his words, naturally how to look good and how to shoot. ”

Lin Xiao did not participate in the premiere, his identity is different, although Wu Tian is considered to be the top in China as a star, but as a director, he is still far behind.

But Lin Xiao is different, he is not only a director, but also a boss, and he is the old director of the first entertainment industry stock in China.

So he had to attend the industry forum with a bunch of bigwigs.

Well, this is probably also the characteristic product of the Tianhai Film Festival, every film festival, in addition to screenings, awards, and transactions, will hold large and small forums.

This year's theme is "New Opportunities for Chinese Films in the Capital Era".

A group of foreigners talked on stage about how Chinese films are combined with North American films, how to create movies that both Chinese and American audiences like, and openly and secretly praise the Chinese film market.

In fact, this is not the first time, after all, the Hollywood film market has stabilized, and it is difficult to have any flashpoints without any huge changes.

But the Chinese film market is different, in recent years, the volume has become larger and larger, and everyone can see that the potential of the Chinese film market is far from reaching its peak.

In recent years, the box office of Hollywood blockbusters in China has surpassed that of North America, which everyone can see.

Lin Xiao was bored chatting quietly with Huang Xuan, the boss of Xuanhuang Pictures.

Xuan Huang is also in turmoil this year, Lao Dong resigned from the company's part-time job as chief operating officer because of his health, and the new one is Huang Xuan, which can be regarded as a replacement.

"What do you think of the group of people in the Heavenly Alliance? Do you really think that inviting a Hollywood director will make it happen?" As a collaborator of the "alliance", although the two also compete, most of the time they still cooperate.

"No way, foreign monks are good at chanting scriptures, compared to domestic directors, foreign directors are naturally more compelling, no, isn't that?" Lin Xiao said to Huang Xuan to a few Hollywood bigwigs who were talking there.

"Huh. Chen Ke glanced at it, shook his head, and couldn't help but sneer.

"No way, the same movie, if it is made by a domestic director, it is all kinds of picks, all kinds of no, but if it is replaced by a foreign director, they can blow him into the sky, some people have been kneeling for a long time, and they don't know how to stand. Lin Xiao said with a slight sarcasm.

What he said was the truth.

There are such a group of people in China, no matter what the quality of your movie is or what the box office is, as long as it is a domestic movie, it is inferior to Hollywood in their opinion.

But as long as it is a Hollywood movie, they are all kinds of praise, even if the box office is not good and the audience doesn't like it, they will only say that they have no connotation and no vision.

Don't believe it, don't believe it, go and look at the film reviews and scores in the film and television library, as long as it's a foreign movie, it's basically scary with high ratings, even if there are some movies, you can't see what's good at all.

The high-scoring movies in China are basically Hong Kong and Taiwan movies from the last century.

Are domestic movies really that bad? Of course not, but some people just think that the moon in foreign countries is relatively round.

"Then do you think they can succeed?" Huang Xuan is the second generation of the film, compared to his Lao Tzu, it is obvious that he and Lin Xiao can talk better, after all, there is a relatively small age difference between everyone.

Huang Xuan's pressure is also great, he can be regarded as inheriting Xuanhuang, but there are many people in Xuanhuang who disagree with him, after all, he is young.

"Hehe!" Lin Xiao replied.

"Want to hear the truth?" Lin Xiao asked with a smile.

"Nonsense. Huang Xuan was speechless. Everyone is a person of status, is it necessary to play like this?

"What do you think is the difference between them doing this and co-production?" Lin Xiao asked rhetorically.

"Uh......" Huang Xuan thought about it carefully, it seems that there is really not much difference, if you insist on saying the difference, it is nothing more than that the projects selected by Tianmeng are all adaptation projects, but they are somewhat on par with Hollywood.

Although there have been a lot of original movies in Hollywood in recent years, there are few big productions, after all, compared with original movies, sequels and IP adaptations are obviously much less risky.

"The risk of adapting the movie should be much smaller, right?" Huang Xuan thought for a while and said noncommittally.

"Yes, that's true, but how much effort do you think it will take for Tianmeng to win the copyright?" Lin Xiao shook his head and said.

"Moreover, the theme is chosen, to be honest, "Knights and Magic" is better, after all, there are game fans to lay the foundation, but "Mystery of the World" is really, it is very popular in North America, but in China, if it is not for this name, who knows what kind of thing this is?" Lin Xiao couldn't help but shake his head.

There are many bestsellers in North America, how many have you read in China?

Cultural differences are not casually said, super IP is super IP, but that is for North America, and China, to be honest, is not as good as Internet red text.

"Then the North American market can make money, and they won't lose." Huang Xuan said again.

"Although I don't know the specific details in it, I'm sure that the North American market has nothing to do with Tianmeng, Tianmeng is not a listed company, people don't need to announce financial reports, as long as the movie sells well, whether or not the money is shared, it can stimulate the stock price of Tianmeng's holding company......"
