Without waiting for Lin Xiaoguang to answer, Xu Zheng then asked: "Xiaoguang, what do you think of the new director Dapeng?"

Lin Xiaoguang thought for a while and said calmly: "I don't know the character, I have only met him once or twice, even if I count today, it is only the third time." ”

Xu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and asked in disbelief: "No, Xiaoguang, you don't know anything about him, and you dare to spend so much money to invest in this movie?"

Lin Xiaoguang said faintly: "Lao Xu, don't get me wrong, the reason why I invested in the movie "Pancake Man" is not because of Dapeng, I followed her out of trust in Zhixi. ”

Xu Zheng nodded suddenly, and asked again: "How much did you invest this time?"

Lin Xiaoguang said bluntly: "More than that, I invested 20 million, accounting for almost 30% of the investment share. ”

Hearing what Lin Xiaoguang said, Xu Zheng was dumbfounded, and he didn't know what to say. He always felt that Lin Xiaoguang was a little too taken for granted and too risky this time.

Let's not talk about the quality of the movie "Pancake Man", as soon as I look at this title, I have a strong sense of bad movie, and it is not attractive at all.

Of course, if Xu Zheng didn't have any expectations for the movie "Pancake Man", then he might not appear at the premiere of the movie.

In fact, as early as the Magic Capital International Film Festival in June, Xu Zheng also heard some praise about the film, and later a friend guaranteed the box office of the film with a net worth of his life in the stock market of 800 million.

There are many people who come to make movies across the industry, writers, actors, and agents in the advertising and television circles, although there are many bad movies among them, but the act of crossing the industry itself is still worth encouraging - nothing is broken.

Besides, Xu Zheng himself is also a cross-industry director, if there are no bad movies for these people, how can he and Lin Xiaoguang show the status, status and value of good films?

Like Xu Zheng, in fact, Lin Xiaoguang is also very worried, he also thinks that Dapeng's "Pancake Man" will be a bad movie when it is filmed.

Therefore, Lin Xiaoguang and Xu Zheng participated in this premiere with a nervous mentality.

Soon, the movie officially opened, and from the four square characters of "Sohu Video" that flew out, Lin Xiaoguang suddenly felt that "Pancake Man" was really a bit bad.

It wasn't until the whole movie was watched that Lin Xiaoguang found that its image story was not gripping, and it didn't matter if he went out for a walk for five minutes or ten minutes halfway, and the urine spots were countless.

Lin Xiaoguang chatted with Xu Zheng while playing with his mobile phone, and he could know the general situation just by listening to his ears, such as the whole paragraph of the funeral host with rap.

When Dapeng appealed to Liu Yan on the rooftop, he said that he had a dream in his heart, a bowl of chicken soup every day, oh, a selfie every day, Lin Xiaoguang felt that this movie was uninteresting.

This is also playing true love, coaxing children.

In fact, when it comes to this, if Lin Xiaoguang is allowed to be the director himself, "Pancake Man" will be completely unable to be filmed.

It's just that when Dapeng filmed here, he suddenly had an epiphany, the years of true hero friendship are more important, he is like the Monkey King in "The Return of the Great Sage", broke free from the shackle seal, and then forcibly picked up Shang Ge Yunton and Gu Ji Zai, and the rampage ended.

In layman's terms, "Pancake Man" lacks a sense of cinema, the picture is flat, the lighting and set camera movements are extremely vague, and it lacks the scene scheduling design of a good movie - basically relying on a few actors to open their mouths to talk about things, and write the plot on the faces of constipation and hard work.

Lin Xiaoguang also noticed that the most used movie technique in "Pancake Man" is the tried and tested split-screen technology, showing the appearance of Pancake Man, throwing eggs and sprinkling green onions (throwing eggs is really not based on "Shaolin Football"), and knocking out opponents.

As a movie about making movies, "Pancake Man" is a hidden fixed shot from beginning to end, without moving or cutting, including the action scene at the end, the paparazzi camera known as candid shooting, almost all of them are absent, which is really bullying the audience not to make movies.

Even after Xu Zheng came out, he secretly told him that this film was a bit bad.

However, it is not easy to tell the grass platform team and the candid shooting process so boring.

You can't think you're unprofessional because of self-deprecation, but everyone works hard, and then you really use these things as shields, right?

The camera that is constantly disappearing and hiding, including Wu Junru's cigar appearance, Yue Yunpeng's Henan identity, and many of the designs in the film are actually completely open to the audience, and these characters jump out to talk to the audience and sell shows, rather than serving the copycat movies and the whole comedy story.

When Dapeng places them in the story, they become an extremely awkward and extremely clumsy existence, such as the intermittent neurospasm of Brother Hai.

Let Shang Ge Yunton's one-word horse and Gu Confucian's concave shape enter for no reason, in the final analysis, it is selling feelings, not really building a bridge to make a comedy.

Some might say, don't care about these details.

The audience watches the movie, it has nothing to do with the profession, the pancake man's tights are obviously very fit, and Liu Yan's chest is obviously very three-dimensional, where is it flat.

However, Lin Xiaoguang feels that as a comedy, "Pancake Man" only made him laugh a few times, which is far from being as good as his previous filming of "Thai Embarrassment" and "Detective Chinatown", including the hanging technology that came out of nowhere.

Its laughter basically comes from traditional cross talk sketch programs, such as Song Xiaobao, everyone watches the Spring Festival Gala together.

However, language stalks like spicy crayfish have been repeatedly mistaken by Wu Junru before, and to be honest, there is no laughing point, and it is dry and panicked.

However, Lin Xiaoguang also admits that the idea and direction of "Pancake Man" are right, and it is also a conscience that it is not made into 3D.

However, those Chiguoguo's product placement advertisements, for fear that others will not be able to see the passages of Ping An Bank, are actually not fundamentally different from previous domestic commercial films.

Including the self-blackening that Dapeng is the highlight of, to be honest, if Dapeng is also called self-blackening like this, then, the stars in the entertainment industry are still fooling around with masks, how can you make those insiders who were reported by the Chaoyang masses embarrassed.

The audience just satisfies some disguised voyeuristic desires, it turns out that the stars may (should be) like this in reality, the local tyrant boss is so pure and good at seducing female stars, and the singer will probably be useless if he doesn't fake his voice.

The conclusion is that the Chinese audience is too easily satisfied.

Lin Xiaoguang's imagination of "Pancake Man" should have been a fake movie and a real act.

As a result, Dapeng still turned it into a fake movie and a fake act.

Dapeng, who played himself, was downcast only because he became a banned star, not because he really wanted to make a movie but couldn't complete it.

The kind of emotional appeal that has no way to escape and goes all out is not at all in "Pancake Man".

Some are just original intentions, dreams, and pancake childhood that no one will believe, but everyone thinks they should believe.

Whether it is the agent who writes the dead pervert on his face, or Yuan Shanshan's interpretation of the gameplay of bad acting, this kind of movie is full of too many chicken-ribbed characters, and it is still in the primitive primary stage of socialism that wants to make up and make up.

Saying "a few more mouthfuls of marijuana" and shouting "Run! brother" are such things comedy and humor? In essence, this is still making up online dramas to kill time, and it ignores the audience's intelligence too much.

After the premiere, Lin Xiaoguang and Xu Zheng took the stage to speak respectively and were interviewed by reporters.

I have to admit that Lin Xiaoguang is very disappointed with the movie "Pancake Man".

After returning a few questions, Lin Xiaoguang looked at the time, and whispered to Liu Yan next to him: "I still have something, what will I do?" ”

Liu Yan held the microphone with a smile.

"Director Lin's last question, the man with glasses over there, the one in the second row, right!"

"That's right. ”

The male reporter stood up, took the microphone and said impatiently: "Hello Director Lin, hello host, I am a reporter from Groom Entertainment, I want to ask a direct question." ”

"Say it. Lin Xiaoguang waved his hand.

"Which of your questions is not direct?"

The male reporter with glasses also smiled: "My question is, Director Lin, this is Dapeng's first film work, what do you expect at the box office?"

If you combine the quality and entertainment effect of the movie and let Lin Xiaoguang predict it, the box office of the movie "Pancake Man" will definitely not exceed 100 million.

Because to be honest, Lin Xiaoguang really thinks that "Pancake Man" is a farce, and it can't be called a movie at all.

However, what is even more ironic is that Lin Xiaoguang is one of the investors in this movie, no matter how much he doesn't like this movie, he can't tell the truth, if he dares to say that this movie is a bad movie, he will not only get along with his own interests, but also make other investors, as well as the staff in front of and behind the scenes, feel what is called cold water.

Lin Xiaoguang hesitated for a while before he said against his will: "I don't want to say big things, but I still think that the movie "Pancake Man" should be able to break through 800 million!"

As soon as the words fell, the scene suddenly boiled, and some reporters in the audience had already begun to whisper.

"Can there be 800 million in such a movie? Director Lin really dares to say it!"

"The film was invested by himself, can he not say that?"

“……”

In fact, as long as a discerning person has watched "Pancake Man", they can see how false Lin Xiaoguang's sentence is.

On the way back, Lin Xiaoguang and Xu Zheng were in the same car.

Xu Zheng couldn't help but bury himself and said: "Xiaoguang, do you really think that "Pancake Man" can break 800 million?"

Lin Xiaoguang sighed, smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Actually, I don't know, I hope it can be broken, and I hope it can't be broken." ”

Xu Zheng thought for a while and nodded with emotion: "Xiaoguang, in fact, I completely understand your thoughts, being a man is like this, there will always be times when you can't help it." ”

P.S. The weekend is here again, I wish you all a great weekend.
