Chapter 104: The Coming Storm (2)
"I suddenly remembered something." Wang Rong, who had been meditating, suddenly interjected.
"What's the matter?" Lin Feihong and Su Yawen asked almost at the same time.
"Do you remember that although the number of movies before Christmas and the Spring Festival last year was no different from previous years, the quality was not very good, and almost all the movies released at that time were the works of directors who were not very famous, and none of the films of those big directors such as Feng Xiaogang, Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimu, Xu Ke and other big directors were released." Wang Rong said.
"It's no wonder that after the release of the movie before Christmas and Chinese New Year last year, the media didn't do much coverage, and the movie at that time didn't make too much of a deep impression." Lin Feihong's eyebrows furrowed.
"It turns out that they are waiting for this day if they don't release it, obviously, they are coming for Feihong, and they have premeditated." Su Yawen said.
"Fei Hong hasn't done anything to be sorry for them, why do they want to go against Fei Hong like this?" Wang Rong's eyebrows frowned, and she couldn't understand the reason.
"Although I didn't explicitly oppose them, I have already formed a grudge with them, and do you remember that there was a craze after the release of "Thai Embarrassment" last year." Lin Feihong smiled, he had already guessed the reason for this matter.
"Of course I remember that at that time, "Thai Embarrassment" reached more than 15 million on the first day of release, and the box office broke one billion after 60 days of release, which caused a sensation in the entire entertainment industry at that time..." Su Yawen talked about the brilliant achievements of "Thai Embarrassment", with a happy smile on her face and a sense of accomplishment, as if this movie was created by her.
"The craze I'm talking about is not this, when "Thai Embarrassment" was released, I didn't follow today's film marketing road, and it was released directly in the cinema without any website sales, and this new type of film marketing road I took caused a wave in the film industry at that time, Yu Tian, president of the Z Country Film Association, Huang Chong, chairman of the Z National Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and Wu Zheng, president of the Tuku.com Film and Television Review Association, all stood up to accuse me of this move, saying that I was acting against the sky, and also said that "Thai Embarrassment" The unprecedented box office was due to the fact that there were no other films released at that time that made my "Thai Embarrassment" have such a good result, not because I took this new film marketing path, if I guessed correctly, they just wanted to prove what caused the results of "Thai Embarrassment" this time, and they also wanted to prove whether I was on the right path. interrupted Su Yawen's words and analyzed the root cause of this "coincidence" incident.
"Then there is a good show to watch now, several big names in the film industry are all released on the same day, this is an unprecedented competition." Su Yawen seems to like the challenge and is becoming more and more interested in this matter.
"I think everyone will be looking forward to this day, but it will be difficult for those fans, they will be quite entangled that day, especially the audience who likes multiple directors or actors, they really don't know whose movie to choose." Wang Rong is also looking forward to this "war".
"They don't have to worry about it, they can watch a few more, and fans with money and time can watch all these movies by big directors." Su Yawen said with a smile.
"Huh? You see, how can this person be so faced, I have never seen it. When Wang Rong and Su Yawen were discussing the very lively day of next month's release, Lin Feihong was watching the news, and suddenly a press conference being reported on TV caught his attention.
On the stage, a handsome young man about twenty-four or five years old was chatting with the host.
I haven't seen him on TV before, could it be that he is a rising rookie director? Lin Feihong thought so.
Wang Rong and Su Yawen both looked at the TV screen when they heard this, and when they saw the young man on the screen, they were both stunned, and after a few seconds of silence, Su Yawen frowned and said, "Why don't I have any impression at all?"
"It seems that he should be a newcomer director who has just risen." There is no relevant information about this mysterious person on TV, only the poster behind it says "King Kong God 2", but the director's name is not visible, so Lin Feihong can only speculate that this person is likely to be a rookie director.
At this time, Wang Rong, who had been silent, suddenly shook her head and said: "This person is not a rookie director, if I guess correctly, this person should be the big director Lu Lijun, who was a smash hit in China five years ago."
"Lu Lijun?" Lin Feihong and Su Yawen looked suspicious.
"Well, five years ago, Lu Lijun came back from studying in country M, and when he came back, he also brought one of his movies "King Kong God", his debut made him a household name in China overnight, and he became famous all over the world. At that time, the film performed very well from sales to the end of its release, and the box office alone reached more than 500 million, surpassing Zhang Yimu's movie "Sorghum", which was the best in China at that time, with a difference of 200 million. "Wang Rong used to work at Tuku.com, and naturally knew more about this kind of major event than Su Yawen five years ago, Su Yawen was still studying hard in school at the time, and she didn't know much about things in the entertainment industry, not to mention Lin Feihong, he was still in his previous life five years ago and had not yet come to this world.
"The first time I returned to China, I defeated Zhang Yimu, Xu Ke, Feng Xiaogang, Chen Kaige and other big directors, it seems that this young man has a lot of talent as a director, if such an excellent talent develops in country M, it will definitely have a future than in China, but why did he run back?" Lin Feihong is really puzzled by the approach of the director's genius in front of him.
"Maybe he's just going to take a spin like last time, make a fortune and leave!" Su Yawen guessed.
"Quiet! The host is asking him why he is returning to China, and listen to his answer. Wang Rong, who had been watching TV, suddenly stopped Su Yawen.
"It's not by chance that I returned to China this time, this time I came back with a goal, unlike last time I just walked around the country and left, and this time I stayed in China for a longer time." Lu Lijun said.
"What is your goal this time? How long will you stay in the country? "Moderator.
"The purpose of this return to China is also the real reason for my return to China, as for what the specific purpose is, I won't say much, everyone will always know in the future, as for how long I want to stay has not been decided, it depends on the situation in the future." Lu Lijun
"Country M has such a good space for development, but you ran back, it seems that your goal this time is very important." Compere.
"Maybe it's not important to others, but it's very important to me, because this kind of goal can't be found in country M." Lu Lijun.
"It is said that you have returned to China a month ago, and you have joined the Film Association of Country Z, right?"
"Yes, I met Yu Tian five years ago, and now we are good friends, he invited me to join but I refused, this time I took the initiative to ask to join." Lu Lijun nodded.
"It seems that Director Lu really plans to stay in China for a while this time..."
