Chapter 191 Lin Dao went crazy
(Everyone,I haven't had any votes lately.,Since you've subscribed, you might as well vote for the recommendation.,If you can have a monthly pass, you have to be cheeky to ask for it.,More than 5,000 words a day.,It's a lot of updates.。 )
Influence is very important, Lin Feihong didn't believe this sentence before, but now he believes it, and after he just said this condition, the peerless scholar immediately agreed to this matter.
For the peerless scholar, this matter is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if he can make Zhongyang Town famous as a great director, it will be of great benefit to Zhongyang Town, and it is not impossible to say that he will be promoted because of this, so when he heard this, the peerless scholar was very excited, and soon signed the contract brought by Feng Qingyang.
The news of the filming of "Cinema Paradiso" was released, and as in the past, it was inevitable that a boom would occur.
"Director Lin, what's the matter, "The Shawshank Redemption" has just been released and immediately started filming "Paradise Cinema", is he so crazy?"
"The fireworks are not extinguished, the smoke is rising again, Director Lin can be called the most diligent director in China, just ask who has worked as hard as him to make movies today."
"Cinema Paradiso" is expected to meet you at the end of the year, if this movie is really completed before the end of the year, then Lin Feihong is really a big director, the hardest working director, who can make three movies a year? At least not yet, there is no second person. ”
"News 110", "Morning News of the World" and many other media have reported the news that Lin Feihong is going to start filming "Paradise Cinema", and people are surprised by Lin Feihong's approach, which is too amazing.
As soon as the news came out, the crazy reports of the media, soon many people knew about this anecdote, Lin Feihong's fame rose again a frenzy, becoming the most famous director nowadays, many fans in various forums, post it, Qihong Film and Television official website, etc. also complained, praising Lin Feihong's hard work, they expressed their very much hope that "Paradise Cinema" can meet everyone as soon as possible.
Long before "The Shawshank Redemption", "Cinema Paradiso" said hello to the audience, but the construction was delayed due to the filming location, and now, it is time to start filming "Cinema Paradiso".
Lin Feihong has become the target of public criticism, and the crew members are complaining that they finally finished filming "The Shawshank Redemption" and took advantage of the National Day to play for a few more days, but they were called back to continue working before they had enough fun, and some people haven't gone to play yet, because there are too many people who travel on the National Day, and they want to go to have a good time after the National Day off-season.
These are the people who complain the most, and their mood is very low, so it is necessary to communicate with them well.
"I know that everyone's grievances are very heavy, I haven't played enough, everyone's hearts are still on the journey, I can understand this, but now the situation is urgent, the competition is fierce, we don't take a step ahead, I'm afraid it will soon be surpassed by others, let's overcome it again, finish the filming of "Paradise Cinema", how about giving everyone two months of vacation at that time, and double the salary for everyone, everyone will work hard to finish this movie, and then everyone will go back to have a good New Year, how about playing how you want, how about having a good time?"
Lin Feihong's advice completely broke the rebellious heart of the crew members, with this promise, everyone's resentment is also a lot less, the most important thing is that the salary is doubled, and you can take a big holiday during the New Year, which is better than the current conditions, the attractions are not all still in place, and they will not be gone because you didn't go in advance, and there is not much difference between going next year and going now. People who know how to think like this have become more and more balanced and calm, so the unpleasant voice gradually shrinks and finally disappears.
Leslie Cheung and the others had no complaints, and they all returned to the villa after Lin Feihong called, and they came back on the third day at the latest.
After some auditions, the actor of Duoduo's childhood decided on a seven-year-old boy, Tiantian, who had never acted in any movies or TV series, but had appeared on TV twice and performed several small shows on stage, so he was not as afraid of life as ordinary boys.
On October 12, Lin Feihong took the crew members to Zhongyang Town, ready to start filming "Paradise Cinema". The peerless scholar warmly received Lin Feihong's crew, and vacated a few relatively vacant houses for the crew members to live in, and also invited three village girls to cook for the crew.
Of course, Lin Feihong would not let the peerless scholar waste public food in vain to open the way for himself and the crew, he asked the logistics bookkeeping to write down this thing, and even the salaries of the three village girls invited were also recorded in it.
As a result, the filming of "Paradise Cinema" began in full swing in Zhongyang Town
Time soon came to October 16th, this day "The Shawshank Redemption" was released for two weeks and two days, this second week, "The Shawshank Redemption" still maintained a rapid posture in the crazy release all over the country, the attendance rate was still 100, the number of screens increased by 300, reaching 1500 screens, the total box office in the second week reached 288 million, in two weeks, the total box office of "The Shawshank Redemption" broke the 500 million mark, reaching 538 million, and the shooting cost of this movie is about 100 million, that is to say, now " The Shawshank Redemption began to make a profit within a week of its release, and has made a profit of 400 million so far.
"The Shawshank Redemption" soared at this speed, and easily won the box office throne that week, blocking the majestic "Metamorphosis" out of the throne, "The Metamorphosis" ranked second, with a weekly box office of 269 million, an attendance rate of 100, and the number of screens reached 1400, but no matter how much it caught up, it still couldn't catch up with the pace of "The Shawshank Redemption", "The Shawshank Redemption" only had 100 more screens to leave "The Metamorphosis" behind.
"The Shawshank Redemption" is not as good as "The Gift of Room 7", it is the same prison film, but the theme and pattern are completely different, compared to "The Gift of Room 7", "The Shawshank Redemption" is cooler, more dynamic, and has a lot of thought-provoking and moving places. If "The Gift of Room Seven" can't bring the audience love for prison films, but this "The Shawshank Redemption" will at least make 80% of the audience love prison films.
Compared with science fiction films, prison films have been brought to the audience again, at least prison films are more realistic and more appropriate to life, so the audience resonated.
"Metamorphosis" is a good sci-fi film, but it is not so easy for a very fake sci-fi film to win over a more realistic prison film, and the pros and cons can be seen from people's evaluations of these two films.
"News 110" media commented on these two films: "Although the theme of "The Shawshank Redemption" is simple, it is of great significance, I hope that everyone will say this word, and everyone will express it, but if you want to show uniqueness from the movie, there are very few people who can run the word hope throughout the whole film, and so far only "The Shawshank Redemption" can do this, it is a prison film, but it is very different from other prison films, there is no violence in "The Shawshank Redemption", there is no sway, but there is evocative and thought-provoking content, The whole film implies positive energy, telling people that there is hope in their hearts, hope will come, in the words in the film, people, living has to make a choice, either busy living or busy dying, a person can choose to wait for death, or choose to live a more exciting life.
The classics are not limited to these few sentences, the casino performance in "The Shawshank Redemption", the protagonist Andy's superb card-counting ability, intelligent financial thinking, gives people a tall and complete image, this kind of person may not have it in reality, but the spirit conveyed by this kind of person is worth learning. Therefore, no matter what, "The Shawshank Redemption" is a movie worth learning and pondering.
As for "Metamorphosis", although its momentum is not bad, perhaps it is mainly due to Lu Lijun's fame, he is a big sci-fi filmmaker, the god of sci-fi films, and his movies have one characteristic: unrealistic. Although there are a lot of cool shots, most of them are the result of special effects technology, and there are few scenes performed by real people, but this kind of film is also very popular because people have a kind of extravagant fantasy about things outside of life in their daily lives, they want excitement, like this kind of movie can be cool for a while, and it can't be studied deeply, you can only sit like a roller coaster, you can't take it too seriously, otherwise there will be no highlights.
The sci-fi film itself is for the entertainment of the audience, but this kind of cool and fast movie is not a long-term solution, after a long time, only those classic lines, the classic movie can continue to remain in the minds of the audience, they can still have an aftertaste after the movie is over, but the audience will feel happy in the process of watching sci-fi films, but it is nothing after the song is over.
With two different kinds of films, two very different directors, the answer to who the ultimate battlefield in the film industry will belong to, is already obvious. ”
Although Feng Qingyang did not participate in the task of filming "Cinema Paradiso", he is also very busy, since the last time Lin Feihong said that he wanted the board of directors to meet to carry out other projects, now this meeting has only started now, Lin Feihong can only discuss and decide this matter within the board of directors if he can't rush back from the meeting in Zhongyang Town, except that Lin Feihong himself is the main person in charge, so he naturally has to finalize this matter, otherwise Lin Feihong's blame is not just a sentence or two of scolding.
The five members of the board of directors all came, and after everyone was seated, Feng Qingyang explained his intention to everyone as the second eldest of Qihong Film and Television Company.
"I called everyone here today to tell you about the company's affairs, this matter was originally said by Director Lin, but he is now outside filming "Paradise Cinema" and has no time to attend this meeting, so today I will discuss with you the specific things to do.
Everyone knows that at present, the main business of our Qihong Film and Television Company is still only to cultivate Director Lin, just as one of his brokerage companies, but this is too monotonous, this is not the purpose of the company's long-term development, so we must focus on developing other projects.
As far as the current situation is concerned, it is obviously unrealistic to spend any energy on cultivating the next generation of filmmakers, and it is enough to have a Lin Feihong filmmaker at present, so we have to move our attention to other projects, such as investment, we can invest in other industries, such as libraries, real estate, etc., these are our branches, and our main force is still in the film industry, which must not be forgotten.
In order to develop new projects, Lin Feihong and I also discussed this issue, and set up a few more departments within the company, such as a real estate department for real estate, and a book department for books. But for now, let's do it and make a plan when the time comes.
Do you have any questions and different opinions about this new project? ”
The five sensible members looked at each other a few times, and finally shook their heads, because they knew that even if they said it, it would have no effect, and the decision was still in Feng Qingyang's hands, and he asked them to hold a meeting with these small shareholders just as a formality.
Feng Qingyang nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Also, everyone has a psychological preparation, in the future, our company's film industry may develop to a higher status, and the film technology in the future is estimated to be more, and then the company will have a big plan to acquire other companies, this point will be revealed to you, what will happen in the future It depends on Lin Feihong's final decision, this is just a little rumor from him, he doesn't have a plan to determine what to do, what company to acquire, how to develop films, He didn't say anything, but what is certain is that the company will have a plan to acquire in the near future. I'll talk to Lin Feihong about this matter after he comes back from filming, okay, that's the end of today's meeting. ”
The five sensible members were all gone, Feng Qingyang still sat in the sensible conference room, leaned on his back and rested for a few minutes before walking out of the conference room, returning to the office and turning out the information of "The Spring of the Cattle Herding Class".
Since the beginning of April, when "Spring of the Cattle Herding Class" was sent to various film festival institutions for review, no institution has accepted the film so far, and Feng Qingyang is very worried that the fate of the film will end, but many practical issues are not up to him.
The rush to start filming Cinema Paradiso in full swing lasted for a few days before it subsided, especially after the box office results came out in the second week, the craze completely disappeared from the entertainment industry, and the media focus returned to frenzied coverage of the box office.
But in the third week of the release of "The Shawshank Redemption", the third week has not yet passed halfway, and another craze has been set off on the Internet, and Lin Feihong would never have imagined that the gambling game he designed would set off such a huge storm on the Internet.
The gambling scenes, gambling skills and some facial expressions in "The Shawshank Redemption" have become the object of imitation by many gamblers, because this kind of gambling skills have not appeared in other casino movies, with novel curiosity and luck, these gamblers embarked on the road of imitating Andy.
It is rumored on the Internet that in Macau casinos, many players have learned from Andy's cool appearance in the play because they watched "The Shawshank Redemption", and they also want to show their skills at the gambling table like Andy. It is said that there was a gambler who did not look at the cards like Andy, leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes in contemplation, and his right hand was also knocking around the chair, and without looking at the cards, he said "follow, follow, follow", and as a result, he lost all his money, and the most valuable Rolex watch on his body was also taken away, but fortunately his clothes were not stripped naked.
The reason why the gambler did this was because he had won a lot of money the first two times like Andy, and he believed that he would win again because he had won like Andy, and he lost all the money he had won before, and finally lost a famous watch. It's really a loss of Mrs. and a soldier, in fact, the first two times he won money was just because of good luck, not because Andy's gambling skills worked, of course, Andy's kind of momentum to suppress people also partly depends on courage, if you meet someone with strength and courage, the smile method will not work, gambling skills This kind of thing you want to control how to make a movie, but in reality, it depends on people, and people who can enter and exit in big casinos are not so easy to deal with.
It's okay to just lose the famous watch like this, and some casinos almost have a fatal case, because some gamblers learned the gambling method of Andy in "The Shawshank Redemption", and yelled at the opponent "I'll play with you!" "I was almost blocked at the gambling table by others, especially gamblers who lost money, this is understandable, whoever loses money will be unhappy, in the case of unhappy mood, there are people yelling at you, then angry, whoever loses money will be angry, rightfully so!
If you meet someone who is in a good mood, and he happens to know the gambling scene in the movie "The Shawshank Redemption", he may reply with the sentence "You want to play with me for this little money?" But in reality, there are very few people who can joke with you, and most people in the casino are gambling with a rigorous attitude, after all, this is gambling on real money, not money.
Compared with this imitation craze in the casino, the degree of imitation between students is not so intense, it seems to be more amiable, mainly based on jokes, some students when playing pai gow, the most often say "I'll play with you!" Usually another person will follow the scene in the movie and reply, "You want to play with me with all your money?" Let's go back to the milk. ”
And then usually the two of them will continue to play like Andy did in the casino.
There will also be some students in the school who will form a group to perform a smaller version of "The Shawshank Redemption", re-enacting Andy's life.
Casino, the high degree of imitation of "The Shawshank Redemption" by students in schools can go viral on the Internet, mainly because some parties or bystanders post on Weibo or post on forums to be known to the world, and then through viral publicity and reports by the media, this kind of thing gradually becomes a household name.
So by now almost everybody knows about these things, and that's the power of the media.
In order to confirm whether the rumors on the Internet are true, many reporters also went to Macau casinos and schools to find out, and what finally appeared in front of netizens after investigation was the real version of the rumors.
