Chapter 371: What Xu Ji Shoots, What is a Hot Theme

No one knows why Xu Ji suddenly chose to buy a new animation company, and spent a lot of money to get an animated movie.

Before this "The Return of the Great Sage" was finalized, almost no news circulated.

At this time, the file is set, and not many people are optimistic.

In addition to the fact that animated movies are the hardest hit area of the current film market, there are more critical reasons.

That is Xu Ji running to attack Journey to the West.

So the classic theme, even if it is the three major kinds, it is estimated that no one dares to make such a decision at present.

After all, the previous old versions of various Journey to the West film and television dramas and animations have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

If it is adapted from the original plot of Journey to the West, there is nothing new at all, and the plot is all well-known.

If it is an adaptation, it will inevitably fall into the current situation of "The Return of the Great Sage", and many netizens will point at and scold the classics.

Therefore, at present, many companies in the industry do not understand why Xu Ji is suddenly interested in the field of animation, and adapting Journey to the West, is completely dead.

......

looked at a bunch of netizens on the Internet who were either scolding the classics or singing about the decline.

In fact, Sang Shaolong's own views are a little different.

Although his interest in animated films is not great, it is also divided into which company produced them.

This time, the script was written by Xu Ji, and Tongji Entertainment itself is also an investment company.

In addition, since Xu Ji dares to move the theme of Journey to the West, he must be confident.

So Sang Shaolong himself is looking forward to what kind of movie this "The Return of the Great Sage" is.

With such a classic plot as Journey to the West, where does Xu Ji plan to start?

In fact, for Tongji Entertainment's dramas or movies, Sang Shaolong basically doesn't pay much attention to who the director is.

Because the label on the above is more distinct.

In almost every film and TV series, Xu Ji has played the role of screenwriter and producer.

It is enough to prove its importance in the play.

And the fact is the same, whether it is the previous "The Legend of the Shooting Heroes" or the just-concluded "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Essence of the Ancient City", almost the importance of the script is self-evident.

Xu Ji's own brain hole is indeed impossible to guess at all.

Some other screenwriters, even those who are super first-line, still have their own themes and fields that they are good at.

But when I came to Xu Ji, it seemed to be omnipotent, and any kind of subject matter could be filmed so well.

is not even satisfied with some existing themes, but begins to lead the current trend of TV dramas and create new themes.

Even if it is the previous fairy sword theme, and the tomb robbery in the back, something that no one has filmed before, in Xu Ji's hands, he can write a high-quality script.

also specializes in filming some themes with a small audience, even unpopular ones such as suspense and martial arts, after Xu Ji finished filming, there were waves of followers.

It's a little incomprehensible.

Although Xu Ji is at his peak because of his debut time, many people don't realize it.

But in Sang Shaolong's heart, Xu Ji is definitely the only one in the entire film and television industry.

Even some directors or screenwriters who are very famous and super first-line are not as good as Xu Ji in his heart.

So this time, when he heard that Xu Ji had come into contact with animated movies, and it was also about Journey to the West, he was inexplicably confident.

I even feel that maybe after the release of "The Return of the Great Sage", the adult-oriented animated film will really change the current embarrassing situation of making one film.

The theme of Journey to the West is the same, it has not appeared in the public's field of vision for a long time.

It is also likely to become the next outlet.

It's like since the popularity of "The Legend of the Withering Heroes", a bunch of film and television works with large or small investments have recently emerged.

Xu Ji is different from other directors, he has never been a hit.

But what he shoots, what is a hot subject.

......

It can be seen from the fact that "The Return of the Great Sage" has been sung by many people this time, and the current Tongji Entertainment has indeed pulled a lot of hatred in the industry.

Two of the three didn't even wait to see the jokes, but also tried to get into the hole.

Even Tianwu, if it weren't for Ji Yeming's resolute refusal to cooperate with the other two, it is estimated that all three conferences would end up besieging Tongji Entertainment together.

Of course, in the eyes of some high-level executives within Tianwu, Tongji Entertainment really needs to be feared.

It should not be like the chairman, completely laissez-faire.

He even took the initiative to cooperate with each other.

Mainly because since its establishment, Tongji Entertainment has basically eaten alone.

The investment in various projects is basically not inserted by other companies.

It's as if you don't need to find a partner to take the risk.

Even a company of the size of the Big Three Entertainment can't do that.

can only say that Xu Ji is indeed very confident, and it seems that if he is firm in himself, he will not lose money in film and television projects.

In addition, on the video platform, in addition to station G, other platforms are also opponents of Tongji Entertainment.

It is hoped that the more projects invested by Tongji Entertainment, the more losses the better.

On the TV station, although it is said that several major local stations have cooperated with Tongji Entertainment.

But only in ordinary partnerships.

The copyrights of Tongji Entertainment's dramas are sold for simulcast rights every time.

Exclusive broadcasting rights are almost impossible to obtain.

In this way, it is destined not to be particularly close to a certain TV station.

Chi Jiang has a deep understanding of the current situation of Tongji Entertainment.

As the largest and even the most famous partner of Tongji Entertainment, Station G can even be said to be the only most famous partner.

Because of the deliberate targeting of the two major companies of smallpox and Phoenix Entertainment, there is even a phenomenon that money cannot buy good film and television copyrights.

This time, seeing the news that the animated movie "The Return of the Great Sage" was about to be released, Chi Jiang himself was actually a little surprised.

After all, I just heard some news before, and I forgot about it later.

Now it seems that Xu Ji is not the attitude of playing tickets, but really intends to enter the field of domestic animation.

Chi Jiang himself doesn't feel very much about this, after all, station g, as the website with the most abundant animation resources in China, has a special animation department responsible for related things.

Last time, it was just chasing the wind, but now that Shi Hammer has Xu Ji acquired Cherry Animation, he has plans to start doing Guoman, which really made Ling Jiuqian, the head of the animation department, excited for a long time.

"Mr. Ling, let's talk about cooperation now, wouldn't it be too risky?"

Several vice presidents of the animation department actually didn't understand Ling Jiuqian's thoughts very well at this time.

After all, there are many people scolding "The Return of the Great Sage" on the Internet, and at present, the box office results are indeed not easy to estimate.

There is still a great possibility that it will hit the street.

But at this time, Ling Jiuqian called them to contact Tongji Entertainment, planning to talk about cooperation with the other party.

"You know the!"

"Since Xu Ji bought Cherry Animation, then they can't just make an animated film."

"If we can reach a partnership in advance, it will be more beneficial to us."

"The most important thing is that you only thought of the unsatisfactory box office of "The Return of the Great Sage" in the end, but what if this movie hits?"

"When the time comes, it won't be us to talk to them about cooperation."

After Ling Jiuqian's words were finished, everyone present fell into deep thought.

After thinking about it, this does make sense.

But there are still people who are very puzzled, that is, Mr. Ling inevitably believes in Tongji Entertainment too much, right?

The other party just bought an animation company, and it doesn't have that much influence in this industry.

The strength of the company itself is also difficult to estimate.

β€œtnnd! Since Chi Jiang hugged Tongji Entertainment's thigh, now he is getting more and more nervous! ”

"Our animation department is about to change from the first department to the second department."

"Isn't it just hugging your thighs? Who wouldn't be the same! ”

After Ling Jiuqian's words were finished, in fact, many people present felt a little funny.

After all, many times before, when it came to Xu Ji and Tongji Entertainment, Ling Jiuqian scolded his mother a lot.

I can't hate it, but it's definitely unpleasant.

I didn't expect to hear Tong this time and start making animation.,Suddenly the attitude changed so quickly.。

"Anyway, let's talk about cooperation first."

"We will give whatever conditions the film and television department gives."

"I don't believe that with the blessing of the script, how rotten can this cherry animation be."

"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and move for me!"

......

Ling Jiuqian's background is compared to that of a professional manager like Chi Jiang.

In fact, it can be regarded as a wild road, and it was also a company that joined not long after the establishment of G station.

Then I went all the way to the present and became the head of the anime department.

Although he is now one of the department bosses of station G, there are still some old habits that can't be changed.

For example, all kinds of swear words, mantras and so on.

Of course, these people in the anime department are used to this.

If Chi Jiang is more like a high-level person who attaches great importance to his image, then Ling Jiuqian's own style is even more rugged.

It's just informal, anyway.

Coupled with his own face and beard, he was a proper bandit in ancient times.

But it's such a person, but it's still a two-dimensional with a very high concentration.

For all kinds of anime works, they are all like a treasure.

Especially like some styles that tend to be delicate and emotional.,It's even more favorite.。

Highlight a full sense of contrast.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have been in charge of the animation department of station G, and for so many years, the animation copyright of station G has been far more than some other platforms.

......

Here You Man is busy with the announcement of "The Return of the Great Sage".

She was already keenly aware at this time that these rhythms on the Internet this time must be the reason why someone is fueling the trouble.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible for so many days to pass and the matter still not stop.

Such a wave of publicity not only did not achieve a positive publicity effect, but gained a large number of black fans before the movie was released.

It made You Man feel a lot of headaches for a while.

"Over there?"

You Man was also a little surprised when he heard Wen Hao's words at this time.

She also knew that it shouldn't be Chi Jiang, otherwise, the other party would contact her directly.

As a former employee of Station G, You Man still knows a lot about Station G.

If it weren't for the film and television department, plus the recent "Return of the Great Sage" is about to be released, then if nothing else, it should be the animation department.

Wen Hao also nodded.

"It's from the animation department of Station G, but they didn't come to talk about the online copyright of "The Return of the Great Sage", or not just about it."

Since Wen Hao left Penguin Video and then entered Tongji Entertainment, he suddenly felt that the whole person was in a much smoother mood.

Not only because there is no intrigue here, but more importantly, although there is a You Man above him, whether it is Xu Ji or You Man, they all trust him extraordinarily.

It fully shows what it means to be suspicious and not suspicious.

He no longer has to be like when he was in Penguin, he needs to fight wits and courage with people on other platforms, and at the same time, he has to prevent being backstabbed by his own people.

After all, in Penguin Video, Xu Sheng, as the president, except for the people of his own faction, everyone else is basically not trusted.

I don't even know how to delegate power, I do some dirty work, not to mention some dirty work, and I won't count my own head if I get results.

When You Man heard that it was the animation department, he immediately understood.

Obviously, since Chi Jiang and Tongji Entertainment reached a cooperation, with the blessing of so many popular dramas, the current film and television department is definitely the first department.

And the animation department, which was once the leader, will inevitably be snubbed from above.

But it is indeed a live-action film and television drama, which can bring actual benefits to station G.

It's strange that the film and television department isn't in a hurry.

Even if "The Return of the Great Sage" has not yet been released, there is such a big turmoil, and the movie says that it doesn't have to be pounced, they still come to the door and want to cooperate.

"The president of the animation department seems to be called Ling Jiuqian."

You Man recalled.

In fact, although she has been at station G for so long, she basically doesn't know any other leaders except for the film and television department.

At the beginning, it was because her position was too low to be reached.

Later, he was promoted to the vice president of the film and television department, but he basically didn't return to the company much.

"Shall we say yes then?"

Wen Hao asked.

Although he is familiar with the company's business, he still does not know as much about many things as You Man.

It's like this "The Return of the Great Sage" this time.

He knew that the company was investing in the animation field, but he didn't even know the progress and specifics of the animation.

It's about to be released recently, so I slowly came into contact with it.

You Man was also thinking at this time.

"Let's look at the terms of cooperation they put forward first."

If you can, in fact, You Man is definitely inclined to cooperate with Station G.

After all, Tongji Entertainment and G Station have long been considered an alliance.

And station G itself is also the best website in China in terms of animation.

All things considered, there really is no reason to refuse.

Of course, if the conditions given are too poor, that's a different story.

The current You Man is not the beginning, and from time to time you need to consider that you are still a person from Station G, and you must consider various interests from the position of Station G.

Although I think about it, I still subconsciously tend to Tongji Entertainment.

But at the end of the day, there will still be times when there will be tangles.

Now, she has completely joined Tongji Entertainment, and she doesn't have that burden.

I can't wait to take care of all aspects of it, I won't suffer a loss, and I will highlight a baht.

If this is not the case, there is a boss like Xu Ji who spends money lavishly, and sooner or later the company's foundation will be lost.
