When Shen Zhenghui listened to Mitsumi Fukuda repeat her negotiations with several major film companies, he always felt that he had the illusion of watching CCTV's internal program "Separation in October", and involuntarily made up the lines of the Japanese version, "Who promoted the development of Japanese films in the 80s?" It's Kadokawa Pictures! Now, Japan's live-action films are another backwater, and who can continue to make waves, I can say responsibly......"

At this time, Mitsumi Fukuda should have interjected below, "It's Kasuga Pictures!" ”

This level of conversation basically does not lead to any action that can be observed by the outside world, but several major film companies have expressed their willingness to support Kasuga Pictures' various attempts at films, and the only requirement is that Kasuga should open a sufficient amount of investment shares. This group of predators finally couldn't help but try to get a piece of the same market after the spring pictures swept a number of box offices, and Shen Zhenghui and Mitsumi Fukuda who have ideas, these giant companies do not have a clear idea of their own development, in Japan, a country where the box office of animated films is far better than that of live-action movies, and at the same time can not resist the import of Hollywood films, live-action movies can only be regarded as TV series and other vassals in many cases, Even if a few movies with high box office and good reputation can occasionally pop up, they are always in a state where they cannot be developed.

In this regard, Japan is even inferior to South Korea. Of course, if we look at it as a whole, if we consider Japan's bad information films as part of the film, the Japanese film industry cannot be said to be depressed, but it can even be said to be quite developed. Supplying the world's needs. But this state of affairs feels like a mistake in the tech tree, no matter how you look at it.

Under the leadership of Shen Zhenghui, Kasuga has shown a clear development idea, and other large companies have also seen it, and Kasuga's idea is also very simple, which is to break through the direct separation between ACG and live-action movies, so that they can support each other's content. It's a very simple idea, and the Japanese themselves are doing it, but it's still very difficult to really do it well. Many companies can only specialize in one item, and the scattered diaphragm between various industries is not conducive to the formation of a complete industrial chain. Major companies are more often short-sighted and short-sighted, and more concerned about risk-free ways to make money. For example, "Jumping the Great Search Line". After the hit TV series, the movie was naturally prepared. After the film broke the record for a Japanese live-action film, it became more and more backward to prepare for a sequel. The same is true for "Conan" in the future, Aoyama Tsuyomasa has not finished for 20 years, and Conan has been a primary school student for 20 years. Toho makes a theatrical version of the movie every year to cheat money.

Comparatively. Everyone can see that some kind of Cheng dù in the spring is trying to create a clear idea. Take a different route. Although it now seems to be doing a lot of money, it is also catching up with international flights. So these local bigwigs naturally want to take this opportunity. Hop on this ride. As a large film company, they control many theaters openly and secretly, and in a sense, Kasuga has to deal with them if they want to be based in Japan and live well.

Of course, these film companies will not take advantage of spring in vain, and after they get the permission to invest, they will naturally give all kinds of convenience to the films they invest in to facilitate distribution and release. At the same time, in terms of actor resources, they do not set up obstacles, from a certain point of view, film companies can break the immobility of actor resources between brokerage companies and TV stations, especially the consortium of so many large film companies.

Of course, this is not a trust alliance centered on Kasuga Pictures, it can only be regarded as a preliminary loose temporary combination of interests, and it is just because Kasuga Pictures has developed by leaps and bounds in recent years, making it dazzling and arousing the interest of many people. In the end, it will inevitably become a cold contract and be strictly enforced.

"So, you mean we're going to get investment from other studios for this film?" Shen Zhenghui was a little puzzled.

"There are quotas, and several major film companies have invested some, which is a test of the waters, and of course we still have the main share."

"So what's the use?"

"Quite useful, at least it was reflected when it was released." Mitsumi Fukuda replied, "The number of screens screened will increase much. ”

"It's so stressful." Shen Zhenghui touched his chest.

"Don't you have confidence in yourself and don't want to shoot well?" Mitsumi Fukuda asked rhetorically.

"That's not it, the key to the problem now is that the results of this film are more relevant to us, not just the meaning of a movie," Shen Zhenghui stared at Mitsumi Fukuda, "According to the meaning of what you want to talk to them, if this film is successful, then our future film investment will be mixed with more capital, right?" ”

"Not necessarily," replied Mitsumi Fukuda, "not everyone is very confident in us, and this time it's just a matter of testing the waters, and next time, maybe there will be less capital and companies to invest, after all, they also have their own business." ”

"Ha......" Shen Zhenghui let out a long sigh of relief.

"I thought you would care that if others invest too much, our own profits will decrease."

"Money is endless, and sometimes it's smart to let others share the profits, and I won't be so short-sighted." Shen Zhenghui shrugged his shoulders.

Mitsumi Fukuda tilted her head, "And because you used Fujiwara Norika to make a film this time, those guys were all tempted, in the past, you only used the actors of Genesy and Queens, and even used some young actors who were not famous, and they couldn't start if they wanted to invest." ”

Shen Zhenghui smiled and looked at the shooting scene in the distance, Miyamoto was talking to Zhang Guorong and Fujiwara Norika, this Japanese director who can speak multiple languages is very useful, Shen Zhenghui can't go on the stage in person and talk about the play over and over again, so most of the work falls on Miyamoto's body, and Yuan Xiangren is already familiar with it as an action director. Fujiwara Norika and Zhang Guorong have no problems with their movements.

Seeing that it seemed that it was about to start again again, Shen Zhenghui and Fukuda Mitsumi said, "Okay, I'm going to get busy, and I'll leave the rest to you, please." ”

"There's one more thing," Mitsumi Fukuda said, "The Legend of Wukong is about to be released in East Asia, don't you care?" ”

"I'd love to care, but I can't be distracted right now." Shen Zhenghui pursed his lips, "Please help me take care of Liu Xin, she is under a lot of pressure." As for me, when the time comes, I'll just tell me the box office number. ”

"I mean, don't you do some propaganda activities in Chinese mainland?"

"It's been given carte blanche to the distributor, and I'm going to concentrate on making this film now." Shen Zhenghui replied.

"It's really strange to me," Mitsumi Fukuda asked, "that you broke the box office of 400 million yuan in two films in China, and you didn't take advantage of the victory to shoot a few more similar films on the mainland, so that you would gain a firm foothold in China?" She asked with interest, "Why did you go back to Japan?" ”

Shen Zhenghui's eyes narrowed, "Your doubts? ”

"A lot of people have the same doubts." Mitsumi Fukuda spread her hands, "Although many Japanese people think that this is because the Japanese film market is better and your abilities can be brought into play, the Chinese film market is not yet mature, and you have received too many constraints on the mainland. After a pause, Mitsumi Fukuda continued to ask, "What do you think of it yourself?" ”

Shen Zhenghui stopped, "Actually, it's nothing," he pouted, "I am popular in Japan and at the same time I have offended a lot of people, many people think that I can make films just because I have a lot of money, if they can make films with enough money, maybe they can do as well as me, I believe that there are directors who think this way, especially when the rumors of 'I don't know how to make movies, and the best ones are my assistant directors'." ”

Mitsumi Fukuda smiled knowingly.

"You must know that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, even in my motherland, and the mainland is the same. I, a guy who is not a regular director, actually relied on my strong capital to make a film that broke the box office record, and in the minds of many people, they were also unconvinced, especially those well-known directors, the box office could not catch up with a fraction of my one, and I didn't know how to be sour in my heart. A lot of people think I'm just like that, with more money and more deputies, that's all. ”

"But you just ran away? It's not your style! Mitsumi Fukuda asked.

"I don't know what my style is!" Shen Zhenghui pouted, "I'm just giving them some time now, and let them walk around on their own according to the way they imagined my success, and what they can become in the end, they don't know if they don't give it a try." Shen Zhenghui snorted, "Didn't those big directors all claim to shoot domestic blockbusters?" Then let them give it a try. The above is polite to me, but this does not mean that those people have no weight in speaking, they are many and locally cultivated, and a guy like me who has no foundation can't compare with them. Even though they value me, they fundamentally value the talents they have cultivated. ”

"So you want to show the people at the top of your country how incompetent their men are?"

"You're going too far, those people aren't incompetent. Although they may fail because they think things too simply and are self-righteous, they also have the ability to learn. Shen Zhenghui smiled, "But the path I want to take is a unique path, and it is not something that others can simply copy." ”

"Really? I'm looking forward to it! Mitsumi Fukuda tilted her head and said.

Shen Zhenghui saw that Miyamoto was already looking this way, so he waved his hand and said, "Look at it, I'm going to work." ”

Under the watchful eye of Mitsumi Fukuda, he quickly ran to the monitor. (To be continued......)
