Bang Bang Bang ......

The premiere of Diablo 1: War for Original Sin was completed and the applause endured, with everyone paying tribute to this new fantasy masterpiece with applause.

Maybe it's better than World of Warcraft, but everyone has predicted that a new fantasy masterpiece is rising.

"Perfect special effects."

A film critic wrote in his notebook: "Maybe in terms of plot, this movie is not too brilliant, just a compact can be described." ”

"But in terms of special effects, this "Diablo 1: Original Sin War" completely conquered me."

"Whether it's a high-fidelity monster or a gorgeous magic inside, there is a kind of magic that makes people involuntarily exclaim."

"It's the magic of special effects, and it's a combination of special effects and commerce."

"Hollywood's special effects have far exceeded our imagination, and if Chinese movies don't chase after the victory, I'm afraid they will be thrown farther and farther."

He had a little compassion, but it was nothing more than that.

Because the final comment on his notebook was: This is a well-made popcorn movie.

No film critic would love a popcorn movie, and even if it shocked him with its use of special effects, it would be difficult to shake the deep-seated prejudices.

It's like when "Titanic" swept through a qiē, film critics had nothing but shock the giant wheel, as for love, hehe, the love of literary films is much deeper and more crooked than this.

If it weren't for the miracle of "Titanic", it would be too big, so big that the Oscars would damage the Oscars' own reputation if they didn't give them the awards.

Arguably. At that time, the reason why "Titanic" could sweep the Oscars was entirely because the Oscars had been kidnapped by public opinion, and fans firmly believed that "Titanic" was eligible for the Oscars. If you don't win the Oscar, it means that the Oscar is shady.

And the film and television companies also need a miracle movie monster to improve the status of all film companies in the United States, and they want to tell the American shareholders that the film industry is not a sunset industry, they have not sunset yet, and you don't need to be optimistic about your stock price at all.

Under the joint pressure of both parties, "Titanic" swept the Oscars.

Fans who like "Titanic" cheered. Because they won, and the film company is happy, because a "Titanic" has pulled up the overall stock price. The confidence of shareholders in the film industry has risen again, just as the funds of major consortia have not yet withdrawn.

The profiteering industry, second only to the energy and arms industries, was synonymous with the film industry at that time.

But alas. There is only one "Titanic". It is a miracle, an irreproducible miracle in the history of film, and the latecomers want to surpass it, but there is no door, so the film industry continues to be rated as a sunset industry by major investment institutions after a short period of revitalization.

And the deep-rooted discrimination of film critics against commercial films still exists, and even if they do, they will not affect the box office of commercial films. Even they can no longer say which movie is as good as they did at the beginning. Any movie that is not good has to be good; Say which movie is bad, which movie is not bad and has to be bad.

The thing that refers to the deer as a horse will never happen again.

So they are clamoring that commercial films are a cancer and should be banned; On the one hand, he drooled over the box office achieved by commercial films, and then bitterly said that the audience's hobbies were problematic and they didn't know how to appreciate literary films.

There are even some extreme film critics who simply provoke a dispute over the line, believing that directors should shoot literary films, and they are not fake colors for any commercial films.

If the box office of a commercial film is good, he will scold him, and then say that a certain literary film is high-end and forced, as for commercial films, it is vulgar and has three wrong views, and even called for radio and television to ban it.

If the box office performance of a commercial film is not good, then they will start to gloat all kinds of gloating, constantly commenting on where the film is commercialized, and then advocating what will happen if it is made into a literary film, and if you refute it, they will tell you how much literary films like Schindler's List have achieved at the box office.

And if you refute commercial masterpieces such as "Jurassic Park" and "Titanic", they will angrily scold you for being full of copper stench, in short, they are standing on the moral high ground to criticize works that do not belong to them, no matter how rave reviews and popularity these works are, a vulgar sentence can solve a qiē.

In Li Lin's previous life, the literary world and the circle of film critics had to be touched, in the literary world, people at that time angrily denounced martial arts novels, calling martial arts novels a cancer, and when martial arts novels became a general trend, they were forced to accept martial arts novels and began to angrily denounce online novels.

One by one, the disdainful words were splashed on the online novel, and the dirty water was also poured on the online novel, making the online novel constantly criticized.

What middle school student committed suicide by jumping off a building, just say that it was caused by reading online novels; Elementary school students beat their fathers, which is also caused by online novels, in short, all bad things are poured on online novels, and every qiē is the fault of online novels, and they are all tall and great, and the words they write are all passed down through the ages and will be passed down for centuries.

"Brother, inform the company that the movie has been postponed, and all publicity has been stopped, except for the official website." The king looked at the flow of people who were gradually leaving, his eyes flickered a few times, and finally he made a decision helplessly.

"This movie can be called the ultimate in the use of special effects, no wonder Weta Digital dares to call this the ultimate technology of Hollywood special effects, representing the generation of Hollywood special effects technology."

"I thought it was bragging, a propaganda tactic, but now that I look at it, I'm afraid it's not bragging and propaganda, but really representing Hollywood's top technology."

The little steel cannon sighed.

Hollywood's top technology may seem like anyone can bring in a team to do it, but when you go to Hollywood, you will find that things are far from being as simple as you think.

Discrimination and a full schedule make them arrogant about studios outside of Hollywood. Whether it is Japan, South Korea or China, they all have the same arrogant attitude, and they simply look down on film companies other than Hollywood.

That is, those special effects companies that are not doing well will take orders from foreign film companies. But there is a problem here, that is, these special effects companies that are not doing well will not receive orders.

Why? Because it's very simple, others come to find the top special effects team, otherwise why come to Hollywood? There is not much gap between Hollywood's second-tier team and the first-line team in other countries, and it is better to have a first-line special effects team in China than to find an expensive second-tier special effects team in Hollywood.

In order to keep themselves alive, Hollywood's special effects teams have been attached to the top special effects teams, and some of the top special effects teams have received orders but don't want to do them. After the order is done, a portion of the profit from the order is handed over to the top team as a commission.

In addition to this, there are outsourcing teams. It can be said that there is a strict hierarchy.

The pyramid structure of Hollywood special effects companies has made newcomers suffer enough.

"What are you afraid of?" Xiao Wang said disdainfully: "The special effects are not a qiē, if the special effects are a qiē, the Hollywood special effects team would have dominated the entire Hollywood long ago." ”

"But do you see the special effects team dominate Hollywood? No. Illustrated, even in Hollywood. It's also that telling a good story is king. ”

"And don't forget jì, what is the most popular in Huaxia? Comedy, the comedy of the small steel cannon is currently the most popular comedy, both the reputation and the box office are very high, although the special effects film is popular, but it is not a one-size-fits-all, and the player's reputation is not something that can be satisfied by special effects. ”

Xiao Wang cheered them on.

The enemy is very powerful, but what is it like now? Defeat before the enemy came? What about courage? What about morale? No matter how powerful the enemy is. It is also impossible to kill a qiē.

It's not a monopoly, and a monopoly is the real killing.

"That's right."

The king perked up. "At the beginning, China Film was so powerful that it directly monopolized 90% of the entire Chinese market, except for a few old studios who dared to compete with them head-on, all the others were kneeling. Lick the middle shadow.

But what about now? The once prosperous Zhongying has gradually disappeared, which proves that the behemoth is not invincible.

The current gold medal group is not as strong as the original China Film, although their capital seems to be very strong, but it is scattered in various industries, and it is not comparable to China Film, which was rampant at the beginning and almost monopolized the entire film industry.

"When China Film was in the middle of the day, we all survived, there is no reason why we can't survive the Gold Medal Group? It's a big deal that when we studied back then, we lurked and let them lead on their own, and we went into retreat and practiced. ”

Of course, he knows very well that now is not much smaller than before, the company was small before, no one paid attention, and it was nothing to take the initiative to retreat, but now, Huayi is already a large company in the film and television industry, and he took the initiative to retreat, I am afraid that he will give the outside world the impression that it has been going downhill, and this impression represents the company's employees, investors, shareholders and other collective disapproval, which makes the entire group continue to weaken.

But what else could he do now than say that?

Facing the gold medal group head-on, no one has this confidence, and now it is only praised by fans, and when the box office comes out, the explosive effect will immediately sweep the entire Chinese market.

At that time, "That Dark Destruction 1: Original Sin War" was truly unbeatable.

Instead of waiting until that time, it is better to plan now, strengthen morale first, and then consider others, otherwise, before he can figure out a way, it is estimated that the people in the company will be completely panicked.

"That's right."

Xiao Wang also cheered up, "Isn't Jin Lao's book written?" If he is strong, we will wait for him to be strong, I don't believe it, he will always be strong, hum, feng shui takes turns, one day it will come to our house, as long as we work together. ”

"Together." Xiao Gangcang's face also showed a smile, as Huayi's old courtier, the depth of his relationship with Huayi is no less than Zhang Yimou and the new picture, under the impact of the gold medal group, he also thought about shaking the gold medal group head-on, but today's "Diablo 1: Original Sin War" completely dispelled his confidence.
