Chapter 396: Sense of Mission
"Sci-fi?"
Guo Dalu glanced at Huang Botao, "Okay, Huang Fatty, you really look up to me! Do you think I can make this sci-fi film?"
Huang Botao said with a smile: "As long as you are willing to do it, this will be fine, whether it is successful or not, it doesn't matter." Mr. Ma said, our family has a strong foundation and can withstand the toss! The key is that we have to fight for our domestic sci-fi films! Everyone says that if you can't do it, Guo Ye, it is estimated that no one in the whole of China will be able to do it!"
Guo Dalu was very comfortable to be slapped by his sycophant, and laughed: "That's right! If I can't shoot it, those wastes will naturally not be able to!"
Since the beginning of China's own films, there have been many excellent films, and some films have won many awards internationally, but these "excellent films" are all humanistic feature films without exception.
As for the rest of the types of films, they rarely go abroad, and even if they can be screened abroad, they generally only radiate to Southeast Asia, which have traces of Chinese culture, but none of them can cause a sensation in Europe and the United States and other countries.
is like a kung fu movie that has always been very popular in Huaxia, and it can earn a lot of box office in Huaxia every year, but before Guo Dalu's kung fu films, Huaxia's old-fashioned kung fu films can only have a market in Chinese areas, and after they get out of the radiation circle of Chinese culture, there will no longer be many people who buy it.
But even so, kung fu films are still the main force at the box office of Chinese films, and under normal circumstances, as long as they are kung fu movies and gunfight films, they are more eye-catching than literary films.
Literary films are so miserable, but there is a category of movies that are even worse than literary films, that is, science fiction films.
Although the box office of literary films is dismal, at least many films can receive a lot of good word-of-mouth.
Not only are they ridiculed by foreigners, but they are also ridiculed by locals when they talk about their own science fiction movies, and they will also have a mocking tone, "Hey, domestic science fiction?
It seems that Chinese filmmakers are born with a lack of science fiction cells, since there have been movies in China, for decades, there have been few science fiction films produced, and most of them are just hanging on the skin of science fiction, in essence, they have nothing to do with the word "science fiction".
And these "science fiction films" not only have bad special effects, but also worse plots, many movies can't even express a complete story, the plot is fragmented, and the screen is full of clues. This kind of movie, not to mention that professionals are disgusting to watch, even the audience feels inexplicable after watching it, they don't know what these movies want to express, and they don't feel the slightest sci-fi flavor.
is this kind of movie, no one is stupid enough to pay money to watch it, and everyone who pays money to watch it will all scold, deeply feeling the garbage of the film director and the shamelessness of the producer.
Is this a piece of?
Watching a movie is equivalent to being forcibly fed with, which can make people sick for a long time, and if a movie is like this, it's okay to say, everything is like this!
After a long time, the audience is afraid to avoid domestic sci-fi films, no matter how the advertisement is promoted, there will not be a few people who are willing to spend money to watch it, for fear of being splashed with.
After this situation has been done a few times, investors are no longer interested in science fiction movies, and they would rather spend money to make literary films, war movies, and action movies than get involved in the quagmire of science fiction movies.
Even if investing in literary films does not make money but loses money, it is good to earn a good reputation, and investing in science fiction films not only has a large investment, but also does not make money, and in the end it ends up being scolded by 10,000 people, so that no one will dare to be interested in science fiction films.
During the period, there were also a few directors who sincerely wanted to fight for domestic science fiction, and also filmed a few science fiction films, but because of the lack of funds and poor creativity, they finally fell into the sand, embarrassed, and lost all their bottoms!
Since then, no one cares about science fiction movies anymore, and everyone in the industry avoids them.
Huang Botao came to discuss with Guo Dalu at this time to shoot a science fiction movie, naturally not to make money, just like he said, he wanted to fight for his country's science fiction movie!
Once a person reaches a certain height, he will naturally have a sense of mission.
At the beginning, the establishment of Tianxi Film and Television Company was just done by Chen Ruihu on a whim, and it was not to make money, but just for fun, but since Guo Dalu was itchy, he filmed a "East Becomes West" for their company, which immediately aroused the fighting spirit of the entire film and television company.
Originally, the entire film and television company was just a grass stage team and did not have a few employees, but after discovering that the movie was so profitable, Chen Ruihu naturally made additional investment and formalized the film and television company, but at this time, the company still focused on making money, and the whole company did not have its own cultural concept at all, so it was a little chaotic in terms of goals.
If a company does not have its own company culture, no long-term goals, and cannot instill a concept of working together for employees, then the company is destined to not go long.
Although making money is the main purpose, it is also necessary to give employees a sense of mission and satisfaction.
The company's employees' sense of identity with the corporate culture is the foundation for a company to continue to move forward, of course, the most important thing is to have excellent talents as reserves.
But until now, Tianxi Film and Television has not had a complete development plan and an effective survival concept.
Until today, Huang Botao came to Guo Dalu to discuss the production of science fiction films, which can be regarded as what a big company should look like.
Whether it is an individual or a collective, since it has reached a certain height, it will definitely want to do something.
Tianxi Film and Television implored Guo Dalu to shoot science fiction films, so naturally they want to make up for the shortcomings of domestic science fiction films.
"is willing to spend a lot of money to invest in the sci-fi genre, why is Lao Ma's ideological consciousness suddenly so high?"
Huang Botao said with a smile: "This is not the first two days, because the box office of "Roman Holiday" has been high in Europe, and people from their country invited you to do activities with Xiaolu, and you said that you didn't want to go, so Mr. Ma went to Europe instead of the two of you." Later, by the way, I participated in an international film forum. ”
When Huang Botao said this, he gloated: "It is estimated that Mr. Ma was ridiculed in this forum, and he looked unhappy when he came back." That is, the day before yesterday, he suddenly put forward the company's development concept, saying that our company should 'carry forward the national spirit', 'encourage artistic exploration', 'pursue commercial value' and 'assume the historical mission' of the four development programs. Then he announced his intention to make a science fiction movie. ”
Guo Dalu laughed, "Fuck, Lao Ma must have been embarrassed by someone at the conference! It should have something to do with our country's science fiction movies, otherwise he wouldn't be so anxious to find me to do science fiction." ”
He said to Huang Botao: "You go back and tell him, I will help him avenge this!"
