Chapter 192: The Conscience of the Industry

How long Wen Yi can go crazy, everyone doesn't know. But they have to admit that Wen Yi is now thriving in the entertainment industry with this crazy energy.

Let's not talk about how his company, which has not been established for a long time, is doing now. Let's just say that as a newcomer who has just debuted, who are the people who often appear around him? How many big names do you have a good relationship with?

And how much of the achievements he has achieved now are not obtained by him by relying on this "crazy energy"?

"May I ask Director Xu, I heard that this film is in the style of a Xiangjiang police film, so among the actors invited, except for Mr. Wen Yi and Miss Lin Yuyan, all of them are Xiangjiang artists. Is it rumored that Director Xu wants to use this film to reshape the glory of Xiangjiang films and save the sluggish Xiangjiang film market? A reporter asked Xu Ke again.

"This film is a good style of Xiangjiang police and gangster films, as for what reshapes the glory of Xiangjiang movies and saves the sluggish Xiangjiang film market, the hat is a bit big. The brilliance of Hong Kong films cannot be achieved by one or two films. And saving the gradually declining Xiangjiang Film Market is not something I can do alone. More filmmakers are needed to work together. Xu Ke said.

"As for why most of them are Xiangjiang artists, after all, this film is in the style of Xiangjiang police and gangster films, and Xiangjiang artists are naturally more suitable. What's more, this film has extremely high acting requirements, which is why I invited four actors and two actresses to help. Xu Ke continued.

Although Xu Ke said this, everyone felt Xu Ke's ambition in this film. Xu Ke has a local atmosphere in the movie, and many directors in Xiangjiang were in the Xiangjiang film market when it was sluggish. They all chose to go north. To the big 6 to shoot a movie.

But Xu Ke still insisted. A lot of people speculate. If Wen Yi were not the screenwriter, producer and investor, it is estimated that the only two non-Xiangjiang actors in this film who are somewhat famous will also be Xiangjiang artists.

Lin Yuyan, everyone knows that if she is not a contracted artist of the investment and production company Jiayi Company, it is estimated that it will be difficult to star in this film.

"Director Xu, as the director of this film, invited so many big-name stars. The remuneration alone is a huge number, which obviously increases the budget of the film from a certain kind of dù, and it is not necessarily proportional to the return. How do you make sure that this film will pay back to the investor, Mr. Wen Yi? After all, everyone knows the current situation of the Xiangjiang police film and the Xiangjiang film market! A reporter asked, again mentioning the issue of recovering the cost of the film.

Of course, this time it was much more euphemistic than the previous reporter. At least it is not directly said that this film will make Wen Yi lose all his money.

"Hehe, this film is a script written by Wen Yi himself, and he himself will also star in the film. also served as the producer of this film, can it recover the cost. He knows better than anyone else! Xu Ke smiled and said.

When Wen Yi heard this, he was stunned. He didn't expect Xu Ke to actually push the problem onto himself again.

"Hehe, I still say the same thing, when I invest in movies, I only think about how to make a good movie, not how much I can make or how much I will lose by relying on this movie. As for how much it costs, I don't care. As long as it's not wasted. What's more, I still believe in Director Xu's ability. He made such a movie, no matter how big or small the investment, when did he lose money? Wen Yi saw that everyone looked over, and then said with a smile.

When Xu Ke and the others heard this, they immediately applauded Wen Yi in their hearts.

Only think about making a good movie, not about the profit or loss of the movie. This is the real filmmaker.

"You're a pure filmmaker!" Xu Ke said with some sighs. However, what Wen Yi said was not perfunctory to reporters, but if he could say this, Xu Ke felt that he was better than himself in this regard.

Xu Ke did not open a company, but only ran a film studio. But when he makes a movie, he has to consider the issue of profit and loss first, in addition to the box office is also a criterion for testing the quality of a movie, but also because if the movie he makes loses a lot of money, who will invest in making his own movies in the future?

This is perhaps a concern shared by all directors.

"Hehe, if the movie is made, how can you lose money?" Wen Yi said with a smile.

"Huh!" Everyone laughed, but said nothing.

"May I ask you, why did you accept Director Xu's invitation at the same time to star in a movie? After all, at the same time, in a film, the sharing of scenes is a problem. Another reporter asked. This time, I asked the question directly to those four emperors and two queens.

After all, the six of them are all big names, and when they hold a conference, those reporters can't just focus on Wen Yi and Xu Ke. What's more, those reporters are still a little confused about how many people appear at the same time.

Xu Ke's face is big, but he can't do it yet.

After all, if someone appears in a film at the same time, the scenes will be shared, and everyone will not have too many scenes, and it is inevitable that there will be ** copies of the scenes. Of course, the most important thing is the limited wave in the film.

Starring and cameos, those are two different things entirely. The cameo is purely to show his face, and he doesn't even have a line, so it doesn't matter. But the starring role is different, even if it is not the male number one, the female number one, even if it is a supporting role, it can be wielded.

As for why he was invited, one is that Xu Ke has a big face, and the other is because the script is attractive. The roles they play will give them a lot of leeway.

Whatever the reason, the film is now ironclad and no longer just a rumor.

The luxurious lineup is naturally not to be missed.

But the media is more about Wen Yi's investment in this film.

"There are many media who say that you are crazy and actually invest in such a film. This time, though, it's not just that you're crazy. Even Director Xu Ke was also said to be crazy, and he actually invited so many big names. Sister Wen said to Wen Yi with a smile.

Crazy, crazy!

Although the media said that Wen Yi's move was too crazy, there were still more media who praised what Wen Yi said at the press conference. Even, many people on the Internet say that Wen Yi is the conscience of the film industry.

"Let them say go! I didn't even know that this was the first time since my debut that the media had called me crazy. Wen Yi waved his hand and said, "As for Xu Ke, that's what he deserves." I feel a little crazy when a film invites four actors, two actresses. ”

"But this time, many media said that you are the conscience of the film and television industry." Sister Wen then smiled, "And many people agree with this statement on the Internet." ”

Make a good movie, regardless of the cost, regardless of profit and loss. This is not the conscience of the film and television industry, and what is it?

Of course, Wen Yi naturally won't really make a good movie, regardless of the cost or profit or loss. The reason why he dared to do this in this movie is nothing more than that he has his past life as a reference, and he has some bottom in his heart.

It's not without risk, but it's worth the risk!

Of course, everything is mixed, some people say that Wen Yi is the conscience of the film and television industry, and naturally some people say that he is like this, but it is just hypocrisy.

The reason why he invested, regardless of the cost, regardless of profit and loss, has nothing to do with these at all. It's just because he wrote the script, and he wants to put that story on the screen, and that's it.

In other words, he has full confidence in his script and the story he wrote.

Look at the fact that before, he dared to invest in sci-fi films after shooting a comedy, and it can be seen that many directors dare not touch it and are unwilling to touch it.

There are different opinions, but no one has to admit that this film became popular before it was filmed.

A topic, a piece of news, will fall silent over time. "Infernal Affairs" has not yet been prepared, filming has not started, and it is not yet time for hype. Relying on media interest, and the coverage of this film, naturally, is not sustainable.

However, when the news of "Infernal Affairs" disappeared from the media, Wen Yi's new film "Source Code" had also been completed. At the same time as it was sent for trial, it was also ready to start publicity.

The promotion of "Source Code" naturally cannot be without the protagonist Liu Qinghua. But Wen Yi knew that "Infernal Affairs" had been almost prepared, and once it was launched, it would naturally be difficult for Liu Qinghua to find time to promote it, so Wen Yi was a little anxious to arrange it during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
