By the time the Toronto International Film Festival was held this year, it was already a bit cold.

Li Chencan came with Haiye, the director of "Smart: Ghost Shadow", Li Chencan didn't plan to come at first, but several other guys suggested that Li Chencan come over. And Li Chencan thought that this was the first film released by his fireworks film company after all, and it was also appropriate to go to some premieres at the Toronto Film Festival.

In this way, Li Chencan soon followed the entire crew to Toronto.

Toronto is a Canadian city, and it's a little chilly at the end of August here, at least if you want to pass short clothes here.

Li Chencan and the entire crew came here, and what they did was, of course, to make their company's "Ghost Shadow" known to more people.

"This time we bought a commercial booth." While looking at these things, Wei Ansheng introduced to Li Chencan and said: "It's still a lot of money to buy this booth...... However, they said that if the response is good, they will be able to show it again in three days. ”

After all, Fireworks Films and Haye, the director of "Smart: Ghost Shadows", are not particularly famous......

Li Chencan's "Ghost Shadow" is also a film with a small investment, and although the movie is very good, the marketing of that film is very problematic, so the box office is not high.

Therefore, the current fireworks film company's "Smart: Ghost Shadow" did not get a free booth this time...... Rather, it was at the commercial booth, and then they had to pay $100,000 for the first broadcast. This is even close to the cost of production.

But after all, the people at the Toronto Film Festival also wanted to give Li Chencan, who made "Truman's World", some face, so they also promised. After watching the effects of "Smart: Ghost Shadow", if the effect is okay, they will give "Smart: Ghost Shadow" a free booth......

These are all done later.

"Smart: Ghost Shadow" is now in the best time period, after all, this booth was bought after 100,000 US dollars, and it is more or less mixed with Li Chencan's personal fame, so the time period of this booth is the most golden, and during this time, the most film companies and some film critics who came to the Toronto International Film Festival came to the scene.

"I know." Li Chencan said a word to Wei Ansheng.

"Thank you!" This time. Haye said with some gratitude.

Although this Haye got the director position of "Smart: Ghost Shadow" because of his own hard work and past achievements, he has always been very grateful to Li Chencan...... In his words, he got the opportunity to make a movie with such a good script, which was a gift from Li Chencan.

Later, when he made movies, he was also conscientious. has been working hard to save money for Li Chencan. also tried his best to make the movie well, in short, he was trying his best to live up to Li Chencan's expectations.

As a result, this movie is indeed very good, and it can basically fully meet Li Chencan's requirements and even surpass it.

A movie like this. It has indeed met Li Chencan's requirements. The original movie of another world in the world has not even been able to reach the level of the current movie because of financial constraints.

This look, as long as it can be screened for the first time, Li Chencan is not worried, because there will definitely be a second time.

However, at this time, Li Chencan arrived with a little surprise: "Hey! Do you understand Chinese? ”

"A little bit." Heyer scratched his head and said in awkward Chinese, "My language talent is not very good. I studied for a while, but obviously I didn't have a lot of results. "When he said the last sentence. The phrase has been turned into English: "Look...... I can't finish a sentence. ”

"That's pretty good." Li Chencan said with a smile: "I think this is really great. ”

"Xie Lu Xie ......"

The place where a few people are chatting here is a public place, and they are coming to see the screening schedule here, so there are also many people here who look at the schedule here together to determine when their movies will be screened, and some are also confirmed, wanting to see when the movies they plan to watch will be screened.

So, there are a lot of people here......

When a few people chatted for a while, someone next to them suddenly said: "Hey, Haye, I have to say that your kid's luck is really great, you can actually find a big benefactor to shoot such a movie, let me guess what you paid?" ”

Although this sentence has a joking tone, it feels a little yin and yang when you listen carefully, and I don't know if he is planning to say something, but there must be a deep meaning in it anyway.

Li Chencan glanced at the person who spoke, it was an American, about thirty years old, with a long beard, quite fat, and the words just now should have come out of his mouth.

"Aaron." When he said this, Heyer's tone was slightly awkward: "You're here too." ”

"yes, shouldn't you introduce me to your big benefactor?" The guy known as Aaron smiled at Hayer, his eyes were looking at Li Chencan and them, the smile on this guy's face seemed to be even brighter, but there was a bit of sarcasm in it.

"You shouldn't say that about them." Haye said to this guy: "He is Mr. Li Chencan, his space steps are now very popular around the world, and his movies are ...... I don't need to say more. ”

This Alun also smiled at Li Chencan, and then said, "It turned out to be Mr. Li, I heard your name a long time ago!" It must have taken a lot of effort for you to come here from China......" Aaron's smile was even more strange: "However, I think you haven't performed a good step on stage lately?" Why do you want to get involved in the movie? And it's still investing in such a film, top-heavy, with such a low investment and such a high publicity cost, do you think this is the standard code for a good movie? ”

There was already real sarcasm in Aaron's voice, this guy was just smiling a little weirdly just now, and now, this guy's voice was no longer hidden.

Li Chencan frowned, but then smiled slightly: "Whether it is a good movie or not, it is not my turn to decide, and it is not the turn of others to decide, it can only be decided by the audience themselves...... Don't you think so? As for investment and publicity, who stipulates that the promotion cost is higher than the investment cost, isn't it the standard for a good movie? IMHO, I haven't heard anything like this before. ”

"Hey, okay!" Aaron's eyes narrowed slowly: "But don't you think this kind of thing is really boring?" Take someone else's opportunity away...... Hum! Squeeze out a film with a lot of investment, and release a film at this kind of international film festival that I seem to have only one or two thousand dollars to invest...... Isn't that a waste of resources? ”

Li Chencan immediately understood what this guy meant...... It seems that his own movie is one step ahead or some reason has squeezed him out of the water, so he is here to say a few strange things now.

In this way, Li Chencan also took a look at the schedule of "Extreme Scream", that is, at the commercial screening, but the time period was not as good as "Smart: Ghost Shadow".

No wonder this guy came here to talk cool things! Li Chencan understood at once.

Li Chencan is not a guy who slapped the left cheek and stretched out the right cheek to beat someone, and now after he heard this, he also had a sneer on his lips: "If you have any grievances, I suggest that you report them to the management committee of the film festival, as you know, it is useless for you to tell me...... Waste of resources or whatever, if you really have confidence in your own movie, you won't care about this time gap, but if even you have faith in the movie, then IMHO, it's really useless for you to come and tell me this today...... Maybe what you need to do is how to build your own confidence instead of saying something that makes people feel like you're unconfident, isn't it? ”

Hearing this, Alun originally wanted to refute, but thought that Li Chencan said that he had no confidence......

He gritted his teeth: "Okay! I just wanted to come over and remind you that it's absolutely impossible for this kind of top-heavy movie to get a good box office, and I'll use my movie to prove it all then! ”

"I'll see! So use the facts to prove it, don't say things that don't make sense like a bitch. Li Chencan sneered.

Aaron could only walk away arrogantly.

After Aaron left, Hayer looked at Li Chencan with a little embarrassment...... The director industry is usually hierarchical, and it is difficult for a person like him to really raise his head in front of Aaron, Li Chencan's call is really convincing, at least, Aaron thinks it is very good now.

Li Chencan narrowed his eyes and said to Haiye: "Haiye, I think we should have confidence, don't we?" ”

"Uh-huh......" Speaking of the movie, Aaron also began to smile a little: "Yes! ”

…… On the second day in Toronto, the movie release of "Smart: Ghost Shadow" began, and although Li Chencan came to the scene, he had seen the film after all, so his fear was much lower.

After that, the movie officially begins......

There are a lot of people here today, but not much, and the main members are all kinds of film critics.

At the beginning of the movie, there were even many people who felt that it was too perfunctory...... Why does this feel like the picture quality is very poor? And it seems to be shot casually with a handheld camera.

However, they soon felt wrong.

It's not that simple at all......

This hand-held camera instead captures the most terrifying real effect...... (To be continued......)
