Chapter 101 The ambition of special effects, the promotion of martial arts
Looking at the young and handsome young man in front of him, but with a calm and steady young man, Zhang Kaile's heart was full of shock at this time, he really didn't expect that it was Lin Feng, who had become famous recently, who wanted to buy Leying Digital. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Even if Zhang Kaile no longer pays attention to the entertainment industry, as the person in charge of a special effects company that has a close connection with the movie, he is still very familiar with the film "One Ball to Fame", which broke various domestic box office records.
Not only familiar, but he also went to watch this movie made by Lin Feng.
Therefore, as soon as he saw Lin Feng, he felt so familiar, it turned out that he had seen this young man known as a demon in the entertainment industry in the movie not long ago.
"Hello, Lin Feng." Zhang Kaile greeted in a somewhat stiff tone, obviously even if he likes the glory in "One Ball to Fame" very much, it doesn't mean that he welcomes Lin Feng to stay in Leying Digital.
Lin Feng also felt the stiffness on Zhang Kaile's face, but he was already prepared for this, it was really rare for a technical nerd to be sociable.
And Leying Digital will have today's difficult situation, which is definitely inseparable from Zhang Kaile's own character.
It can be seen that Zhang Kaile is not a person who is easy to deal with.
Subsequently, Lin Feng was not affected by Zhang Kaile's attitude, walked up to Zhang Kaile generously, sat down calmly, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and looked up at Zhang Kaile with bright eyes.
Manager Cao also sat next to him, but he didn't make a sound, but after seeing Lin Feng drink tea, he silently poured it for him, put down the teapot, and waited for the conversation between the two.
Zhang Kaile saw that Lin Feng was young, but he was everyone's demeanor, and on this occasion, people couldn't feel his youth, as if he was facing a hunter who was well versed in shopping malls at this time.
"You want to buy my Le Ying Digital?" Zhang Kaile was excited by Lin Feng's eyes, and he couldn't hold his breath at first, and his tone was not very friendly and asked first.
When Lin Feng heard this, he looked at Zhang Kaile's stubborn eyes with a hint of defensiveness, as if he was wary of Lin Feng wanting to snatch his beloved things, he sighed secretly in his heart, and then nodded indifferently and said, "Not bad." ”
"I won't object to the acquisition, but it's impossible for me to transfer the absolute controlling stake in Leying Digital to you, this is my brainchild, I don't think you can take Leying to a higher level." Before Lin Feng finished speaking, Zhang Kaile interrupted him, and then said to himself stubbornly, as if he didn't want to talk to Lin Feng at all.
Seeing Zhang Kaile's willful attitude, Manager Cao's face changed slightly, and then he tapped his fingers on the table and reminded: "Mr. Zhang, please pay attention to your wording, we are here with sincerity, you must know that the special effects company is not your one, and the current situation of your company is not very good, if there is no injection of funds, what does it mean, I think you know better than me." "Humph!" Of course, Zhang Kaile knew that if there was no capital injection into Leying Digital, then the result was likely to be bankruptcy and bankruptcy, thinking of this, he had to put away his disdain a little, and then like a child, he snorted coldly, turned his head, and no longer looked at Lin Feng and Manager Cao.
"Huh." Lin Feng couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Zhang Kaile's 'cute' appearance, this is like a decisive boss of a company, just a vindictive child.
Zhang Kaile heard Lin Feng's laughter and couldn't help but look embarrassed, just when he was about to explode, Lin Feng spoke.
"Mr. Zhang, what do you think of our Huaxia film special effects technology compared to Hollywood? Who is superior and who is inferior? Lin Feng said slowly and seriously, word by word.
"Huh?" Zhang Kaile was shocked, originally he thought that Lin Feng would not be able to stand his attitude, and he would leave with his sleeves or use such an attitude towards him, but he didn't expect this young man to ask an irrelevant question.
However, he quickly reacted, and said with a look of pride that you don't understand: "Hollywood's special effects technology is very famous, but our Huaxia's special effects technology reserves are not inferior to the other party, I dare not say other companies, but my Leying numbers are not worse than any special effects company in Hollywood!" ”
As if he couldn't get used to Zhang Kaile's pride, Manager Cao said in black again: "Then why do Hollywood blockbusters beat Chinese movies to the ground in recent years?" Why is your Leying number now facing the dilemma of running out of funds? ”
Why didn't the two almost make Zhang Kaile angry, but thinking that his company was indeed in urgent need of capital injection, he couldn't bear the discomfort in his heart, and muttered in a low voice: "Domestic movies are not as good as Hollywood blockbusters, and I don't blame our special effects company." ”
Lin Feng saw Zhang Kaile's aggrieved appearance, and almost didn't laugh, he was definitely a technical nerd, a typical technician who was paranoid about his ideal regardless of actual needs.
"You say that our domestic special effects technology is no worse than Hollywood, but why does the world only know Hollywood special effects blockbusters, but not Chinese movie special effects blockbusters? Why do audiences in other countries always marvel at their special effects shots after watching Hollywood blockbusters, but they don't have any feelings about our Chinese special effects pictures? Lin Feng continued to ask seriously.
And why, Zhang Kaile almost didn't lift the table and left, but after listening to Lin Feng's words, he couldn't help but be a little stunned and fell into deep thought.
Oh, yes!
Whether it is Zhang Kaile or others in the entertainment industry, they are full of confidence in the special effects technology of domestic films, and they do not think that Huaxia's special effects technology is inferior to Hollywood, but why is there no amazement in the minds of audiences all over the world for the special effects lenses of Chinese films?
In the eyes of the world, Hollywood blockbusters have gradually become the standard in the minds of all audiences, and as for Chinese blockbusters, there is no concept at all.
Lin Feng's question not only caused Zhang Kaile to think deeply, but also made Manager Cao, who was on the side, look questioning and thinking.
After a while, Zhang Kaile came back to his senses from thinking, but his eyes still revealed a little confusion, and it is estimated that he did not find the problem.
He looked at Lin Feng with complicated eyes, and then said coldly: "Say your intentions, don't go around in circles here, if you want to hit me with this method, then you will be disappointed." ”
Lin Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head, daring to love that this boss still thought that he was using these words to attack his confidence in special effects technology.
So, he took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, organized his language, and said: "I personally think that the reason why our domestic blockbusters have not impressed the world is that we do not have a special effects blockbuster in China that can be used as a benchmark demonstration, and we need a shocking domestic blockbuster to make all audiences in the world marvel and cheer for the special effects lens of this movie." ”
"As long as there is this special effects blockbuster that is enough to set a benchmark, then there will be more excellent special effects blockbusters."
In the antique private room of the teahouse, although Lin Feng's voice was not loud, it was sonorous and powerful, impacting Zhang Kaile's heart.
Every Chinese filmmaker has a movie dream of his own in his heart.
So the dream in Zhang Kaile's heart is to make Leying Digital the pride of Chinese films, and the special effects production of every domestic blockbuster ranked first will always be Leying Digital, and the whole world is amazed and praised for the pictures produced by Leying Digital.
This is the biggest dream in Zhang Kaile's heart.
Now Lin Feng pointed out to him that one of the ways to realize this dream is to make a Chinese blockbuster that can be used as a benchmark.
Tell everyone what kind of picture can be called a blockbuster, and what kind of special effects production is the world's top level!
"Make a blockbuster that can be used as a benchmark for China!"
At this time, Zhang Kaile's heart was full of this thought, his mouth was fragmented, and he didn't know what he was muttering, but the gaze he occasionally looked at Lin Feng no longer had the disdain and contempt he had before.
Because, he found that this young man was more ambitious than he was.
A blockbuster that can be used as a benchmark, is it really that easy to shoot? However, the boy not only thought so, but also said it categorically.
If someone says that he is crazy, Zhang Kaile will definitely spray him with saliva, is he crazy? At least in the film industry, Lin Feng is even crazier than him, a madman.
It's just that this young man is talking big?
There is no hair on the mouth, and the work is not firm!
Zhang Kaile did not immediately choose to believe Lin Feng, but looked at the young man in front of him with doubtful and hesitant eyes.
Lin Feng saw Zhang Kaile's eyes, guessed what the other party was worried about now, smiled lightly, and said confidently with the superior and proud demeanor that Zhang Kaile showed in front of him just now: "Special effects technology, I can't do it; But you can't make a movie! ”
Then he took out a stack of printed scripts from his bag and sent it to Zhang Kaile, "Look, this is my plan for my next movie." ”
Zhang Kaile felt very uncomfortable with the attitude that Lin Feng showed just now, but he was quickly attracted by the script that Lin Feng handed in front of him.
He has long heard of Lin Feng's talent as a director, and he can be described as a big name, at least his "One Ball to Fame", there is absolutely no problem with the global box office exceeding 2 billion, this young man is now the first person in the Chinese film industry.
Although in the eyes of others, this is just an accident.
Zhang Kaile curiously opened the first page of the script, and was frightened by the above content, his eyes widened, and he couldn't believe the above content.
Title: 2012
Genre: Disaster film
Budget: 500 million (Huaxia Yuan)
.。
Just seeing this, his brain immediately crashed, and it took a while to react, but he was still very excited, and pointed to the script and stammered to Lin Feng: "You. Are you sure that this is above. Didn't go wrong? A budget of 500 million? ”
Lin Feng smiled proudly when he heard this, shook his index finger, and said domineeringly: "Mr. Zhang, you are not mistaken, the budget is indeed 500 million!" ”
500 million?
It's really 500 million!
It seems that in the history of Chinese films, there has never been such a large investment in a movie, even if this kind of investment is put on the Hollywood side, it is almost 150 million yuan, and it is estimated that Hollywood has a few films with this investment.
Zhang Kaile looked at the numbers on the script and was stunned.
Lin Feng saw that Zhang Kaile still looked incredulous, and asked rhetorically: "Since we want to make a blockbuster that can be used as a benchmark, the budget of the movie must be on par with Hollywood, if we don't have such a high budget, how can we make a movie that shocks the world?" ”
"Whether it's the film itself or the special effects, the film must be world-class, it must be unique, otherwise what is the benchmark?"
"And in my plan, if the budget is not enough, it may increase further at that time."
Listening to Lin Feng's words, Zhang Kaile couldn't help but swallow his saliva, he would even increase the budget, what kind of disaster movie would make the young man in front of him so hesitant to spend so much money, he turned the script to the next page.
The first one is an rendering with a stroke.
A bustling city, with towering high-rise buildings, ten-mile long streets, and endless streams, but then there is an bottomless abyssal chasm, which divides the bustling city into two, and disaster comes.
All kinds of shocking doomsday scenes made Zhang Kaile shudder.
In particular, in the painting, a highway is broken into three sections by a bottomless chasm, and the middle section of the highway turns out to be an isolated cliff, the picture is shocking, and the effect is very terrifying.
Absolutely big scenes, and it's not ordinary special effects, you can make this kind of picture!
At least Zhang Kaile also felt the difficulty, and it was not ordinary.
He flipped through several scripts one after another, and they were basically renderings of the end of the world, cruel and real pictures, which made his heart have a powerful impact.
It's shocking, it's real, it's brutal.
He almost didn't dare to keep climbing.
Actually, there is no need for him to watch it anymore, because, through these renderings, Zhang Kaile finally understands a little bit why Lin Feng wants to say that his next movie will cost 500 million, and it will increase if it is not enough!
Now it seems that Zhang Kaile has estimated a little in his heart, and if he wants to make the scene in the renderings, 500 million may not be able to bear it.
When he thought of this, his whole body couldn't help but tremble, oh my God, did he really want to make a movie with an investment of more than 500 million?
Seeing that Zhang Kaile was in shock, Lin Feng said calmly: "Mr. Zhang, how do you feel?" ”
"Huh-" Zhang Kaile breathed a sigh of relief, slowly closed the script, don't read it, these are enough, he replied seriously: "Great renderings, although the idea is not new, but if you want to shoot this effect, this is indeed a desirable thing." ”
"Since Mr. Zhang knows my determination, then I won't drag my feet, let's put it bluntly, I want a total of 65% of the shares of Leying Digital, so Mr. Zhang, you can only keep 35% of the shares in your hands, but the company's technical matters are still up to you, and every year I will take out a certain budget for you to develop new special effects technology!" Lin Feng looked at Zhang Kaile with clear eyes, with a firm expression!
At this time, anyone can feel the strong determination in his heart.
“35%!” Zhang Kaile suddenly felt a little difficult to breathe, could it be that he just gave up his hard work for many years, he met Lin Feng's gaze, invisibly, his attitude was not as strong as before, and asked with difficulty: "Do you have to have so many shares?" ”
"Not bad!" Lin Feng nodded affirmatively, "I don't want any variables in my plan, if I can't completely own the Le Ying number and there are differences in the future, listen to you?" Or listen to me? I don't want to waste my time on, and I always think that every decision I make is the right one because I never miss it. ”
Direct enough, domineering enough, and sincere.
Zhang Kaile sat there with a frown, entangled and thinking painfully about what to do.
Lin Feng and Manager Cao sat quietly on the side, waiting for Zhang Kaile's final decision.
In the end, Zhang Kaile did not immediately agree to Lin Feng's conditions, Leying was his hard work for many years, and only a few words from Lin Feng were not enough to make him back down.
However, he didn't have the toughness he had before, and only said that the company was not his business alone, and he had to go back and discuss it.
Hearing this, Lin Feng and Manager Cao glanced at each other, Zhang Kaile's attitude finally softened, and he was no longer so stubborn, if he really went to the dark, then Lin Feng had to choose another way.
It's about buying a few smaller special effects companies, merging them together, and starting over.
Before leaving, the two sides said goodbye.
Lin Feng held Zhang Kaile's hand and said sincerely: "Mr. Zhang, I didn't buy Leying Digital to make money, if it was to make money, I would just shoot a few movies casually, and I wouldn't waste my mind on the special effects company; I have only one purpose, that is, to shoot a real blockbuster that belongs to our Chinese people, and set a benchmark for those who come after me, that's all! ”
"I look forward to seeing us work together to make this dream a reality."
After saying this, Lin Feng nodded at Zhang Kaile and left.
Zhang Kaile stood at the door of the teahouse for a long time before he sighed deeply, turned around and left, and returned to the company, he locked himself in the office alone, thinking about the meeting with Lin Feng just now.
It cannot be denied that this young man is definitely a genius, a genius like no other.
There are no bad habits on his body that make even the slightest achievement, he is self-righteous and arrogant, on the contrary, Lin Feng gives him a very good feeling, neither humble nor arrogant, calm and calm, not like a young man who has just turned 20 years old.
What made him feel the most heartwarming was that from Lin Feng's body, he saw the characteristics of an idealist.
Relentless pursuit of dreams.
In order to make the movie he wants, he spares no expense and even worries about the production of special effects, and in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, he has to acquire a special effects company to completely put his mind at ease.
This is an ideal person who pursues perfection!
Zhang Kaile sighed in his heart and thought that in fact, he is also a person who pursues perfection, otherwise he would not have invested a lot of money in research and development because of imperfection in technology, which made Leying Digital face the danger of running out of funds.
During this time, he felt physically and mentally exhausted, and every time he saw the financial statements, it was extremely tormenting.
It can be said that the company's current situation, if there is no injection of foreign funds, waiting for the outcome of Leying Digital, there is only one, that is, bankruptcy and forced auction to pay off debts.
Although Zhang Kaile is not good at management, it does not mean that he is stupid, but he puts all his energy into technology, and he really doesn't have much thought to manage the company's operation.
Leying Digital has a financial crisis and wants to acquire his company, but Lin Feng is not the only one, and many other companies have contacted him to inquire about the acquisition.
Even, several other special effects companies have tried to acquire Leying Digital through various channels.
He knows very well what the outcome will be if Leying Digital is acquired by several other special effects companies, and Leying Digital will definitely be eaten by those companies, and there will be no scum left.
And the signboard of Leying number will also become a passing cloud.
This is unacceptable to Zhang Kaile, and now he is carefully thinking about all kinds of gains and losses in his mind.
In the end, he still felt that Oriental DreamWorks could be the best place for Leying Digital.
Perhaps, Lin Feng's conditions are the most demanding, but it is his personal rights that are sacrificed, not the interests of Leying Digital, on the contrary, through acquisitions, Oriental DreamWorks and Leying Digital can be said to be a strong combination, once according to Lin Feng's plan, a benchmark blockbuster movie will be filmed.
Then, the name of Leying Digital will spread all over the world.
Thinking of this, Zhang Kaile had already made a decision in his heart, if he wasn't reserved, when he was in the teahouse just now, he would have wanted to agree to Lin Feng's conditions.
The same ideal person who pursues perfection still has a lot in common in personality.
In an instant, Zhang Kaile made a decision, then picked up his mobile phone and dialed a number to go out.
Yanjing, suburb, Lin Feng rented a villa for the master here, this villa Lin Feng has bought and transferred to the master's name.
Old man Lin also knew that Lin Feng was not short of these money, and he was happy to accept it.
At this time, in the villa, several people sat in the shade of the courtyard, talking and laughing, but the shiny bald heads of several of them were more dazzling.
"Master Lin, a year has passed in a flash, when can your plan start?" One of the kind-eyed old monks looked at Lin Feng with a smile and said.
Lin Feng shuddered at the old monk's gaze, hell, he could actually feel the resentment in the old monk's eyes, no wonder, the old monk was indeed red and anxious now.
At that time, he had mentioned to the old monk that he wanted to use movies to promote the culture of Shaolin Temple, but he didn't expect the old monk to keep it in his heart, and now he has chased it to Yanjing.
However, all this is also to blame for the fact that the name of Wujimen has been too popular in Huaxia recently.
A "Jingwumen" not only made the senior brothers Xiang Jin and Liang Zhidan popular, but also beat the name of Wujimen.
Especially in the TV series, Huo Yuanjia's self-created Wujiquan is even more popular among the people, and Xiang Jin took advantage of this hot momentum to open two branches in Modu and Guangdong one after another.
Wujimen has completely gained a firm foothold in China.
From scratch, it took less than a year for Wujimen to establish its foundation in China and develop, and even in terms of fame, it is not inferior to any martial arts sect in China.
This shows the role of film and television in the promotion of martial arts.
Now Liang Zhidan has established his reputation as the number one star in the entertainment industry through several TV series, and he was born in Wujimen, which has become the biggest signboard of Wujimen's external publicity in addition to Xiang Jin.
The old monk saw all this in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, he never forgot that Lin Feng had proposed to make a movie for Shaolin Temple to promote Shaolin culture!
So, Lin Feng saw the old monk here,
Seeing this, Lin Feng was also defeated by the old monk's persistence, but he also admired the elderly abbot of Shaolin Temple, in order to develop the culture of the temple, he worked tirelessly, flew over thousands of mountains and miles, and personally came to inquire about the development plan.
He lowered his head and silently thought about how to promote the culture of Shaolin Temple, and the old monk saw Lin Feng bowing his head and contemplating on the side, holding his breath and concentrating, for fear that a little abnormal noise would disturb Lin Feng's thoughts.
After a while, Lin Feng raised his head and said to the abbot seriously: "Abbot, there is no problem for me to make a movie to promote Shaolin Temple, and it is no problem to increase the popularity of Shaolin Temple, but have you ever thought about how to promote Shaolin Temple culture in the future?" Is it just through martial arts? ”
Hearing Lin Feng's words, the old monk was stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep thought.
The people around him also thought about this question with serious expressions.
Lin Feng saw that the people around him were seriously considering this issue, and couldn't help but think of the promotion of Shaolin culture in his previous life.
In the previous life, Shaolin Temple became a well-known temple at home and abroad through a "Shaolin Temple", and then coupled with Mr. Jin's Shaolin Temple, seventy-two stunts, "Yijin Sutra", sweeping monks, etc., Shaolin Temple has become a martial arts holy land.
The world's martial arts out of Shaolin has become the motto of Shaolin Temple.
At the same time, martial arts have also become the biggest feature of Shaolin temple culture, overshadowing other Buddhist Zen cultures in the temple.
In the previous life, the Shaolin Temple eventually developed into a deformed commercial institution, full of strong copper smell, to travel, everything costs money, even if you go to the toilet, you have to charge money.
And although Shaolin Temple is quite famous in the world, but it has gradually become the existence of monkeys, everywhere, martial arts performances are essential, chest broken boulders, a finger Zen handstand, although it can cause several exclamations from other audiences in the world, but how many real people can pay attention to the history and culture of Shaolin Temple itself?
In fact, the status of Shaolin Temple in Buddhism is rather embarrassing.
Although Shaolin Temple is a thousand-year-old temple, it is also known as the four famous temples in China at most, but that's all.
Even the four holy places of Buddhism, Shaolin Temple and Songshan are not up to the grade, in the previous life, Shaolin Temple was jokingly called a large acrobatic troupe by many Buddhists, although this is a bit of a commercial success of Shaolin Temple.
But to some extent, it also represents many people's views on the Shaolin Temple.
In Lin Feng's heart, the Shaolin Temple in the previous life was not what he liked, and in the previous life, due to historical reasons, the Chinese civilization was in a weak position, and it was deliberately suppressed by the Western civilization led by the United States.
Whether it is economic, military, or cultural and political, China has been surrounded and blocked by Western countries in the world, and it can be said that the rise of China in the previous life was not easy.
Then, in this international situation, Shaolin Temple can become a bridge between China and the world through martial arts, and it has also become the responsibility of the temple itself. It is even more extreme to take itself as a representative of Chinese kung fu and become an alternative and deformed religious martial arts group.
However, Lin Feng knows that the stamina of Shaolin Temple is seriously insufficient, and with the rapid development of China's economy, this development model of Shaolin Temple has been more and more criticized.
As long as a little trivial thing that is not conducive to Shaolin Temple happens, it will attract countless accusations.
It can be said that success is also business, and defeat is also business.
Lin Feng's only worry now is that he is afraid that after the Shaolin Temple is famous for its martial arts, it will also follow the old path of the Shaolin Temple in the previous life.
In this way, it is contrary to Lin Feng's original intention.
Actually, for Lin Feng, this is related to some dreams that he has to say in his heart.
In this life, whether he is making movies or singing, what is his ultimate purpose?
Become a worldwide superstar?
Lin Feng believes that with countless classics from his previous life, becoming an emperor superstar who combines glory and wisdom is simply a matter of course, and there is no difficulty!
Earn a lot of money through movies and music?
It can be said that with Lin Feng's wealth now, even if he quits the entertainment industry now and doesn't have to do anything, he can live this life in style.
Everyone should have a dream of their own.
Coming to this world, Lin Feng's original idea was just to make some money by entering the entertainment industry to make his life and his family's life better.
In the end, he became a world-famous emperor superstar, standing at the top of the entertainment industry, and won numerous awards and honors.
This was originally the development route that Lin Feng had designed for himself in this world.
He believes that as long as he does not make any mistakes and develops step by step, he can stand at the peak of the entertainment industry for a maximum of ten years.
However, the longer he integrated into this world, the more his thoughts slowly changed.
The strength of China in this world makes Lin Feng sigh; The majestic wind of China in this world makes Lin Feng intoxicated, and the radiation of the great Chinese cultural circle in this world makes Lin Feng even more amazed!
He never imagined that one day, Chinese culture would be able to have such a wide influence in the world.
There is no English that must be learned from junior high school, and English has not become a necessary condition for finding a job or evaluating a job title in China, on the contrary, Chinese has become one of the two common languages in the world.
Especially in East Asia, Chinese is the official language of several countries.
North Korea did not say that it would de-sinicize and change the capital Seoul to Seoul, on the contrary, the North Koreans were proud to call their capital Seoul.
The Republic of Lanfang and the Republic of Xinhua, two territories that belonged to Indonesia in the past life, were made into a country ruled by Chinese in the present World War II, and the domestic people were basically immigrants from China after World War II.
Japan, which had brought countless pains and humiliations to China in its previous life, was taught by China to be like a housekeeper, and in this life it is hard to take care of the family and the home for China.
In short, the Chinese culture of this world has a great influence on the world.
This made Lin Feng feel a lot of emotion, and at the same time, it also made some fantasies in his heart gradually come true.
Through living in this world for almost six years, Lin Feng found that with the development of the world economy, other countries have gradually caught up with the pace of China's development.
In today's society, war is no longer the main way to solve problems, and even in Lin Feng's view, it is not possible for this world to break out into a third world war at all, at most it is a small-scale conflict.
Everything is about harmony.
With the re-emergence of Western countries led by the United States, it has gradually affected China's hegemony in the world.
Everything must be fought, everything must be fought, everything must be distinguished, and the cultural battle is no exception.
Through his personal experience in this world, Lin Feng suddenly had a thought in his heart, a thought that he had never dared to think of.
He wants to use the countless classic cultural resources of his previous life in his mind, so that everyone in this world can worship himself like crazy, like to listen to his songs, watch his movies, and spread Chinese culture through his works.
Lin Feng wants to spread Chinese culture to every corner of the world in this world.
If he says this idea, it will inevitably cause ridicule and contempt from countless people in the entertainment industry, and he may even be considered a madman by everyone.
But he still chose this path without hesitation and walked silently, just waiting for the day when he broke out of the cocoon and became a butterfly.
Now, using the unique history and culture of Shaolin Temple, through the publicity and packaging of the movie, it has been promoted to the world and become a beautiful landscape of Chinese culture, which will be Lin Feng's first attempt at the ideal in his heart in this world.
The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled in the courtyard reflected everyone's different moods at this time.
Lin Feng's question made everyone fall silent, especially the old monk who was frowning and thinking about this question.
After a while, the abbot inadvertently saw Lin Feng's confident look, his heart moved, and he couldn't help but say: "Little donor Lin, I know that you have a furrow in your heart, and I ask you to guide me!" ”
The old abbot's words made the eyes of the other monks in Shaolin Temple turn to Lin Feng.
Master Lin also looked at the beloved apprentice, although he didn't know what Lin Feng thought in his heart, but he thought of the set of guidelines that Lin Feng designed for the Wuji Gate, and it was estimated that the meaning that the beloved apprentice wanted to express this time was almost like that.
When Lin Feng heard the old abbot's words, he didn't shirk, coughed lightly, looked around at everyone, and then said slowly: "First of all, we have to figure out what is the purpose of making a movie about Shaolin Temple?" ”
"For money? Or is it for the name? Or is it for something else? ”
The old abbot and the other monks couldn't help but show a thoughtful face when they heard Lin Feng's rhetorical question.
However, before they could react, Lin Feng continued: "As far as I know, Shaolin Temple should be Zen Buddhism, but in the Buddhist holy places in China, there is no Chongshan Shaolin lineage!" ”
At this point, except for the old abbot, the other monks couldn't help but look at Lin Feng viciously.
The four famous Buddhist mountains in China are Wutai Mountain in Shanxi, Putuo Mountain in Zhejiang, Emei Mountain in Sichuan, and Jiuhua Mountain in Anhui. It is known as "Golden Wutai, Silver Putuo, Copper Emei, and Iron Jiuhua". They are dedicated to Manjushri Bodhisattva, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Fugen Bodhisattva, and Jizo Bodhisattva.
Wutai Mountain, Putuo Mountain, Jiuhua Mountain, Emei Mountain, these four places are recognized as Buddhist holy places, are the four famous mountains. The most famous of these places is Mount Wutai, which serves as the ashram of Manjushri Bodhisattva, which is clearly recorded in Buddhist texts, and the other three places are the holy places of the Bodhisattva's manifestation.
In the previous life, Shaolin Temple used commercialization to promote Shaolin Temple to the world, but it could not change its embarrassing position in Buddhism.
It can only be regarded as a famous temple, not a Buddhist holy place.
In this life, with the influence of the Shaolin Temple now, it is even more unbearable than in the previous life.
The reason why Lin Feng said this was not to poke the sore feet of the Shaolin Temple, he glanced at the few monks in front of him with angry faces, and continued calmly: "On the grounds of martial arts and the carrier of movies, I can indeed increase the popularity of the Shaolin Temple a lot in a short period of time, but how can we maintain this influence, whether at home or abroad, how can we attract the local people and let the Shaolin Temple grow to reach the height of your hearts?" ”
"The gorgeous and dazzling martial arts can make you happy for a while, but you can't keep the glory of Shaolin Temple for a lifetime, so what should you do when the people have passed the freshness of martial arts? Continue to use a variety of novel martial arts moves? If that happens, it won't be what I want! ”
According to the development process of Shaolin Temple in his previous life, he analyzed the ending of Shaolin Temple in the future, and it is not a long-term solution to rely on gorgeous martial arts alone.
However, Lin Feng also revealed a trace of his inner thoughts in his words.
The old abbot looked up at Lin Feng, his eyes were shining, and he said with a strange look: "Buddhism? Zen? ”
When Lin Feng heard this, he said happily: "Not bad! ”
"Buddhism has a long history, Shaolin Temple is a thousand-year-old temple, if you use the movie to package and promote, combined with Shaolin martial arts, it must have a unique charm, martial arts as the branch, Buddhism Zen as the foundation, so as to go further!" Lin Feng said meaningfully.
"That's a great thing!" The more the old abbot thought about it, the more excited he became, and he longed to go back to his room at this time, and quietly think about the idea by himself.
"You can learn from the development of Western religion!" Lin Feng thought for a while and added, "Western people can go to churches to pray for their sins, hold wedding ceremonies for newlyweds, and even pray for the deceased to be buried in peace, you don't have to learn all their functions, but it is necessary to study the system of Western religions!" ”
In fact, Lin Feng thought about the development of Western religion in China in his previous life, and felt extremely heartache.
Western festivals, needless to say; Valentine's Day and Christmas are much more important in the minds of many young people than Tanabata and New Year's Day.
Western Christianity has also expanded dramatically in China, and even the old men and grandmothers in the countryside believe in Jesus, and they can donate hundreds of yuan in order to build Christian churches.
Marriage, funeral, prayer, there is nothing that a Christian church cannot do.
Lin Feng remembered that a friend in his previous life went to the church to get a marriage ceremony, and it took nearly 50,000 yuan to add all kinds of expenses together, just a priest, he wrapped 10,000 red envelopes, as well as the cost of renting the venue.
Of course, this also varies depending on the situation in each place.
In fact, this is a manifestation of the influence of Western culture on China.
This phenomenon is still relatively rare in this world, after all, the government in this world attaches great importance to the traditional culture and customs of China, and it is better to protect this area, and even strictly order the local government to set an example, which makes the traditional culture get the greatest protection.
But in the future, we can't rely on the government level to protect culture, right?
The progress of science and technology, the emergence of various kinds of high technology, and the promotion of national culture through the media are also an important means in today's society.
Lin Feng hopes that through the carrier of film, Chinese culture can be spread to every corner of the world, so that people all over the world can be infected by the advanced Chinese civilization and identify with Chinese civilization.
Subsequently, he suggested that if the old abbot set up branches in various places after the Shaolin Temple became famous, then the rules that must be formulated.
Here, Lin Feng took the Wuji Pavilion as a reference.
Wuji Pavilion represents Taoist culture, so what are the characteristics of Taoist culture?
Do nothing, the Tao is natural!
But these foreigners must not understand it at first! Then Lin Feng will change these concepts to the meaning that foreigners can understand!
Advocating freedom, unrestrained!
When Lin Feng came up with the theme idea for the Wuji Pavilion for foreign people, it was promoted in the museum, and it immediately achieved good results.
Originally, foreigners have been shouting that they want to liberate their nature, want human rights and freedom, and protest even if they do something big.
Wujiguan's Taoist thought with 'freedom' as the core is very popular with martial arts students.
In other words, what students learn at Wuji Pavilion is not martial arts, but freedom!
Only in this way can the trainees be united into a rope, exert greater influence, and infect more people with common ideas.
When the old abbot listened to Lin Feng's introduction to the various rules of the Wuji Pavilion, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and before Lin Feng finished speaking, the old monk left Lin Feng behind, and then threw down a sentence:
"I'll go back and think about what kind of Buddhist thought our Shaolin Temple uses as the core of the museum!"
