Chapter 895: Movie Clips
"Wu, you're finally back!"
As soon as the bearded Steve saw Wu Tian, he immediately ran over and held Wu Tian's hand as if he had seen a relative.
"Hehe, Steve, what's going on, isn't there a problem?" Wu Tian smiled and pulled out his hand - Tianshao doesn't have Gao Ji's hobby.
"Wu, in the past few days of your absence, there have been too many troubles...... "Steve said with a bitter face.
"Don't worry, say it one by one, let's solve the problem if there is a problem." Wu Tian said with a smile.
"Well, the first trouble is the kung fu masters you invited, and they strongly asked to see the sample films, which are the action scenes that were captured." "I didn't let them see it, but they were so pestering that I cut three minutes of footage for them to see." But what I didn't expect was that they were very dissatisfied with our footage, claiming that filming like this was an insult to Chinese kung fu and asked us to shoot it again! ”
"Oh? How could such a thing happen? Wu Tian frowned in wonder, few Chinese martial artists would care about these, they could perform abroad, and they could also collect and shoot movements into cartoons, they were already so happy that they couldn't touch the north, where would they care if their movements were used on monkeys or praying mantises?
In addition, the martial arts movements they practiced, the original version of the invisible fist, is to imitate the image of the animal in the concentration. Now that the animation is restored, they should only be happy, where will they be monsters?
Is there something going on behind this?
"That's not the most troublesome thing," Steve said bitterly, "and I was able to convince them so easily." Ask them to wait for you to come back before giving them a final answer on whether or not these images will be used in the end. But here they just agreed. Suddenly there was a video of that sample on the Internet, but it was edited again, and only kept less than two minutes of footage, and since yesterday morning, it has gone viral on the Internet, and now the Internet is scolding our video......"
"Oh? Is there such a thing? Wu Tian's eyes widened.
"Yes," Steve said, with a crying stance. "Wu, I swear to God, I personally took the three-minute clip that I cut that day and played it for those martial arts masters, without anyone's hands, I really can't find out who leaked these clips and removed them......"
"Hehe, Steve, you don't have to blame yourself so much, there must be a reason and a way for the video clip to leak out, we just need to investigate carefully. Are you still afraid that you won't be able to find out? Wu Tian smiled, "As for the Internet rumors. That's better to deal with......"
*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** ********************************************************************
Wu Tian, accompanied by Steve, walked into the studio.
The filming of "Kung Fu Panda", in fact, there are not many places that need to be filmed in the studio, and the motion capture was all completed a few days ago, originally those martial arts masters should have returned to China, thanks to Wu Tian's kindness, they privately funded them to stay in the United States for a few more days, play around, visit the martial arts colleagues in the United States or something, who would have thought that this would cause trouble.
"Mr. Wu......"
Seeing Wu Tian's arrival, a group of martial arts masters greeted each other, but their tones couldn't help but be a little embarrassed.
In this regard, Wu Tian was relieved, it was obvious that these masters were not partly bad, and at least they couldn't continue to thicken their cheeks......
"To a master, everyone is still having fun these days, right?" Wu Tian didn't mention the matter, but was polite first, in fact, this is also to wake up everyone's play in the past few days, but he is privately sponsored, you can't spend my money and cause me trouble, right?
A thin middle-aged man said, "Mr. Wu, thank you for your hospitality, we have had a good time these days." Still, I guess you know that too, right? It's the martial arts we performed this time, and you used them like that, it's a little, a little ......."
"Something?" Wu Tian looked at him and smiled, "Could it be that Master Bai has any objections to the animated image we made?" ”
"Yes......" The thin middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said, "Although I practice praying mantis boxing, but if you use the praying mantis to perform mantis boxing all the time, it will not show the essence and beauty of mantis boxing at all, this is a serious damage to the image of mantis boxing, I ask Mr. Wu to change this!" ”
"Yes, yes, and our snake fist, with a snake to express, not even a fist, where can it be called a snake fist?" Another lean guy shouted.
Several other people also chimed in, and they were about to make a mess.
Wu Tian was unmoved, still smiling slightly, just waiting for those guys to turn over and over those few words, so that they themselves felt bored, shut up, and looked at Wu Tian one by one.
"We have a saying in China, called being kind," Wu Tian said in a low voice, "Let's not say that you are worthy of me like this, only whether this is worthy of your conscience?" ”
"What do you mean by that?" Master Mantis Boxing Bai said.
"Hehe, I don't like to beat around the bush," Wu Tian glanced at him, and then continued, "Why did you suddenly do this, I think there must be a reason, there must be someone who is kind of to you, or to make a profit." But I don't care about that, I just want you to tell me who the other person is. ”
"Don't live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain......," the mantis fist shouted again.
Wu Tian didn't even bother to look at him this time. He only glanced around the other four. Then he said, "I'll give you two hours to think about it." Whoever decides to tell me, go to my office to find me, and if you don't want to tell me, you can go and pack up and leave now, and as for your remuneration and return ticket, you can go to the finance department at any time to collect it. ”
After Wu Tian finished speaking, he left the studio without looking back......
*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** ********************************************************************
"It's all fate, I just came back from Taiwan Island. I don't even have a little rest, and I have to solve these troubles......" Wu Tian complained to Qi Bing as he half-lay down on the sofa.
"Do you know who's behind it this time?" Qi Bing made Wu Tian a cup of tea and said.
"How do I know?" Wu Tian sighed, "Anyway, we don't seem to have any enemies in the United States, right?" ”
"That's hard to say." Qi Bing said with a smile.
"That's what I said, it's a mediocrity not to be envied, a strong man like my brother will naturally have enemies all over the world, haha......" Wu Tian laughed.
"Okay, say you're fat and panting." Qi Bing said with a smile. "This matter must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise the impact will be very bad. If you don't know the golden sign of your genius director, you're going to smash it. I've already asked people to start a thorough investigation of the upload channel of that video, but I may not find any results......"
"Well, the key now is to replace the video on the Internet first, otherwise we will launch an official version of the promotional video as soon as possible." Wu Tian said.
Wu Tian originally did not even announce the name of the film in order to maintain the secrecy of "Kung Fu Panda", let alone the promotional film - the outside world only knows that Wu Tian is going to shoot a cartoon, and no one knows the specific content and theme at all, but it has greatly enhanced the audience's curiosity, and the strategy is successful. But this time the clip was leaked, so Wu Tian had to change his strategy.
The clips that were edited and modified almost completely subverted the image design of the film, and even the martial arts movements of those animal masters were cut to pieces, and the most left was the destruction of those masters, or stomping on a piece of the floor, or beating a companion into the air in a martial arts competition, or smashing a wall or a pillar or something, giving people the feeling that there was only violence left. In addition, there is also the screen full of Chinese-style Beijing, whether it is a Chinese building with half-pulled red bricks and blue tiles, or a broken Chinese furniture, which fills the entire screen......
It is precisely because of this kind of editing that there has been a lot of scolding on the Internet, accusing Wu Tian's new movie of promoting violence, the picture is too lacking in beauty, etc., and directly denigrating this chip as worthless, and even some loyal fans of Wu Tian immediately attracted countless bombardments as soon as they justified it......
Therefore, the first thing Wu Tian needs to do now is to release the original three-minute editing screen first, and then come up with a beautiful trailer, only in this way can the current bad impact be minimized as much as possible......
*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** ********************************************************************
What Wu Tian is not afraid of is public opinion warfare.
Therefore, for the video clips on the Internet, Wu Tian not only does not think that it will cause much damage to himself, but will even help himself to a certain extent - of course, provided that Wu Tian's follow-up response measures are timely and effective.
"Mr. Wu......"
Wu Tianzheng and Qi Bing carefully discussed the specific plan for the next step, and there was a knock on the office door.
"Hello, Master Wu." Wu Tian said to the burly man who entered the door, "Sure enough, it's Master Wu who is here, it seems that I didn't guess wrong, hehe." ”
"Uh...... Mr. Wu, did you guess I would come? Master Wu said.
"Hehe, among several masters, I think Master Wu has the most real heart." Wu Tian said, "Anyway, I don't think Master Bai will come." ”
Master Wu nodded and said, "Mr. Wu, I ......."
"Master Wu doesn't have to be embarrassed, in fact, whether you say it or not, I guessed pretty much." Wu Tian said, "I want you to do this, it should be Master Bai, right?" Did he say that you should just be in charge of the coaxing, and that he would be the main one to do it? ”
"Well, Mr. Wu really guessed it......" Master Wu lowered his head in shame and said.
"Well, what are the benefits he promised you?" Wu Tian asked.
"He said that no matter whether things work out in the end or not, when we return home, we will each give one million." Master Wu said.
"Hehe, it's not too small, it's not too big." Wu Tian smiled and said, "Master Wu, you can go to the finance department to withdraw 200,000 US dollars later, which can be regarded as a little thank you from me." ”
"Ah, how's that going to work?" Master Wu hurriedly said.
"Nothing can't be done, that's a little bit of my heart." Wu Tian said, "Okay, you go to the finance department now, and I'll inform them." ”
Master Wu said two more words, and then at Wu Tian's insistence, he left the office.
"You are really generous with this money...... Qi Bing notified the finance department on behalf of Wu Tian, put down the phone and complained.
"It's worth the money!" Wu Tian said with a smile, "At least I already know that this matter was done to me by people in China, and at least it proves that I don't have a ready-made enemy in the United States, and I can sleep at night with much more peace of mind, hehe......" (To be continued.) )
