Chapter 337: Doing a full set of acts

In the reports of various media outlets, the term "Chinese-style blockbuster" was used, and the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle was defined as a Chinese blockbuster.

The reason why Shanghai Star Film Company filmed the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle was to compete with Western blockbusters.

This will be a contest between the Chinese and Western film industries.

This is the promotional tone set by Lin Zixuan, making readers feel that this is a movie and has nothing to do with anything else.

At this time, "Gone with the Wind" was being screened in theaters in Shanghai, and Chinese audiences were amazed by the charm of American blockbusters.

The newspaper also praised "Gone with the Wind", and the three-hour ultra-long screening time and the ticket price were as high as five yuan a piece, which still couldn't stop the enthusiasm of the audience.

The length of Chinese films is generally only 60 minutes, and the maximum is not more than 90 minutes, and the ticket price is only about 1 yuan.

That's the gap!

Lin Zixuan can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars just by screening "Gone with the Wind" in Shanghai.

It can only be said that Shanghai is worthy of being the financial center of China, and there are too many rich people, who tend to lean towards Western culture and pursue fashion.

If it were in Beiping and Tianjin, it would not have had this effect.

After watching American blockbusters, some people in the newspapers are lamenting when Chinese films will be able to have their own blockbusters.

Lin Zixuan gave the answer.

This news can really be described as a stone that has stirred up a thousand waves, and the response from all parties has been strong.

People who love movies strongly support it, and China's own war blockbuster is exciting to think about.

Conservative people think it's nonsense, there are 200,000 people who do not do well, and they are used to make movies, which is too loser.

There are also professionals in the film industry who analyze the feasibility of filming the Sino-Japanese Naval Battle. With China's current shooting technology, can it realistically reproduce the scene at that time?

Anyway, through the newspaper newspaper series of reports. The war of thirty years ago is back in the spotlight.

To this end, Lin Zixuan held a press conference. Invite the news media from Shanghai to come.

This is the Ming plank road, making things bigger, and letting the media report all over the world to mislead the Japanese.

In this way, the movie can also be promoted, and there is no fear that no one will come to watch it at that time, and the gimmick alone can attract the attention of all parties.

China's largest investment in the film, for the first time to show a panoramic view of the war at sea, and the American blockbuster to fight for the honor of the Chinese film industry......

The press conference was not only attended by the news media. There are also employees of other film companies.

The film caused a greater repercussion within the Chinese film industry.

Those film companies saw the gap between them and star film companies, and when they were still working hard for a movie with an investment of tens of thousands of yuan, everyone had to invest 200,000 yuan to shoot a blockbuster.

The two sides are no longer playing on the same level, which is really sad.

After Lin Zixuan founded the National Film Association, most of the film companies joined in, and only a few film companies still resisted, and the films of these companies were not screened in Shanghai, but moved to the northern market.

For example, in Tianjin and Hankou, there are few theaters there. But there is still room for survival.

In the next step, Lin Zixuan is ready to integrate cinemas in Shanghai and across the country to form a cinema alliance and monopolize the Chinese screening market.

At this press conference. Lin Zixuan was not surprised to see the reporter of the Japanese Oriental News Agency.

The Japanese reporter pointed out that the First Sino-Japanese War was a war between China and Japan, and in order to prevent the Chinese film company from distorting the facts, the Japanese side has the right to censor the script.

Of course, Lin Zixuan will not hand over the script easily. Rather, it argues with reason and declares that this is a place in China. You don't need the Japanese to dictate what kind of movie to make.

Japanese journalists accused Lin Zixuan of attempting to undermine diplomatic relations between China and Japan, and the Japanese embassy will protest to the Chinese government over the matter.

Lin Zixuan showed no weakness. Protest and expel the Japanese journalists from the press conference.

The whole press conference was full of gunpowder.

But with the precedent of "Jinmen Hero Huo Yuanjia", everyone thinks that this is normal, Lin Zixuan and the Japanese have a long history of grievances, if Lin Zixuan succumbs this time, it will be called a strange thing.

Lin Zixuan's unyielding was just a show, and he knew that the Japanese would never give up.

The contest between the two sides has just begun.

There must always be a process of playing with each other, and in the end, Lin Zixuan was forced to come up with a script to make the Japanese believe it and think they were victorious.

They tend to be suspicious of things that are too easy to obtain, so they have to do the whole set of plays.

Presumably, the Japanese will also use the means of bribing the employees of star film companies to steal movie scripts, and Lin Zixuan is prepared.

The confrontation between Lin Zixuan and Japanese reporters was in the newspapers, attracting many comments.

Some applauded, some disagreed, and some spoke for the Japanese.

Under the banner of "fairness and justice," these people believe that what the Japanese reporter said is reasonable, and in order to prevent the appearance of plots that scandalize the Japanese in the movie, the Japanese do have the right to read the script.

Lin Zixuan wanted to ask them, did foreigners ask the Chinese for permission when filming a film insulting China?

At the same time, there was a wave of criticism in the newspapers.

thinks that Lin Zixuan blindly shoots the so-called Chinese blockbusters, ignoring the actual situation of Chinese films, and is so ambitious, he will definitely suffer heavy losses in the end and bring a heavy blow to Chinese films.

Some people also say that China failed miserably in the Sino-Japanese Naval War, and that filming this kind of film is to expose the scars of the Chinese, and Lin Zixuan has bad intentions.

They even framed Lin Zixuan in order to overturn the case for the Qing government, which is a step backwards in history.

All kinds of attacks, and so on.

There is only one purpose, that is, to prevent Lin Zixuan from filming the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle.

It can be seen from this that Japan has been operating in China for so many years, and has long cultivated and co-opted a group of Chinese politicians and scholars who have betrayed the country to seek glory, which is why there were so many traitors later.

The film hasn't started filming yet, just after the news was released, it was already full of turmoil in the city.

The Japanese put pressure on Lin Zixuan through the public concession authorities and Sun Chuanfang's side, and they naturally wanted to prevent the filming of the film, and if they couldn't stop it, they would also censor the script and even participate in the filming of the film.

At this time, Lin Zixuan came up with another killer idea.

He pulled out a stack of documents to prove that the Shanghai Star Film Company was actually a branch of an American company in Shanghai.

Therefore, the Beiyang government has no control over it, and the public concession authorities are not an official agency of the United States in China, but only an autonomous organization, and they have no right to manage this matter.

If you want to file a lawsuit, we can go to the United States to fight, or the U.S. Embassy can come forward to coordinate.

Under normal circumstances, Lin Zixuan didn't want to reveal this matter, and he was a bit suspicious of using the United States as a talisman, or called ********.

In fact, this kind of thing is very common in Shanghai.

When the compradors of those foreign firms set up their own companies, they will always be attached to the foreign company, so that they have foreigners as the backstage and can obtain a lot of preferential treatment and protection.

Lin Zixuan didn't look down on this kind of person, so he was reluctant to say it.

Now that the Japanese want to fight backstage, he doesn't mind talking about the Americans and letting the Japanese reason with the Americans.

The United States has always promoted democracy and freedom in its own country, so it is my freedom to shoot whatever subject matter.

What's more, an American film company is still threatened by the Japanese when making films, and how can the Americans feel embarrassed, and if they compromise with the Japanese on this issue, doesn't it seem that the United States is afraid of Japan?

This is a slap in the face of the Americans!

In this way, a film involved in international disputes. (To be continued.) )
