Chapter 119

Every traverser will eventually become a shameless person!

At first, there may be some psychological and moral burden, but in the end, you will enjoy the convenience of memory with peace of mind...

The text is copied publicly!

Whatever does not appear, what he understands, will become his!

It's the same with fused memories...

Shen Xudong's memory is only limited to some things in the entertainment industry, but it's enough!

After all, he's already in the game.

After this year, he has become the hottest screenwriter!

Not to mention throwing money at a sack, it's almost the same...

Anyway, even if he writes a script casually now, there will definitely be investors who will take the money for him to do it...

Vanity Fair, don't believe in successful people, do you believe in a declining beep?

Xingmei found Shen Xudong, the purpose is very clear, to match Shen Xudong and Chen Kexin to cooperate, on the "Stinging Horse"...

……

Shen Xudong met with Chen Xi first and chatted about "Secret Calculation"...

The original book of "Secret Calculation" is very paranoid, mortals are lowly, geniuses are noble...

A proper type of reflection...

It is to replace the revolutionaries with the thinking of normal people, and to put it bluntly, it means that they are all inhumane!

In fact, the reason why the revolutionary feelings of revolutionaries transcend human nature, and even have the suspicion of being anti-human, is simply because what they defend is really condensed with the blood and tears of too many people, and there is no room for loss.

Without personal experience, there is no right to speak, just like the landscape painted by a blind man.

At this stage, there is a market for this kind of reflective theme!

But it definitely won't work on TV.

After Shen Xudong's adaptation, the three stories progressed in turn, the first two stories "Listening to the Wind" and "Watching the Wind" both began with spy wars but ended with personal tragedies...

The protagonist of "Listen to the Wind", the blind man Ah Bing, finally committed suicide because his wife was electrocuted by Green;

Huang Yiyi, the protagonist of "Watching the Wind", finally died of emaciation at the hands of a shrew because of her pursuit of love.

The third section, "Chasing the Wind", is screened after the first two films, which is particularly the finishing touch.

Without the third paragraph of the description of the struggle of the revolutionaries in the thirties, even the best performances in the first two films would have been in vain, because it only monotonously reshapes the revolutionaries into cold state apparatus, and castles their faith into the vajra impermanence that requires human life, without explaining how the revolutionaries came to be, how the state came to be, and where the faith came from...

It also does not explain why there are revolutionaries, why there is a state, what faith is.

And that's exactly what the third paragraph is about.

It was able to pass the review also because the third part impressed many censors...

After the reforms, the reflection on the stage of our revolution was often also based on anti-human nature, depriving people of their will and freedom for the sake of revolution...

But... Faith is itself transcendent in human nature!

The hero itself has a part that destroys humanity...

That's why the instructor will say: the people's heroes are immortal!

But the first two paragraphs do have a bit of a sense of jumping on the sensitive line.

"It's good to be able to let you shoot and allow it to be broadcast."

“… Did you expect that? ”

"Well, Director Zheng should have expected it..."

Chen Xi didn't understand very well: "Since the subject matter is sensitive, why do you still do it?" ”

Shen Xudong smiled: "... I advise! ”

"I told him that he doesn't make spy war dramas, and there is no one in China who dares to try... At this stage, the theme choice of TV dramas is too small, either martial arts, or short... Beishi Center has to make a sample! Dare to be the first in the world! ”

“… You're really good at it! ”

"When "Secret Calculation" is broadcast, "Before Dawn" can enter the official preparations..."

"You've got your script written?"

Shen Xudong nodded: "I also bought a copy called "Latent"..."

Chen Xi 'um' for a while, did not continue, and the two arrived at the hotel...

……

In this year's Chinese New Year, Xingmei launched two movies "Three Immortal Village, Underground Palace Beauty" and "If Love"...

Judging from the results, "Three Immortal Village" earned more than five million, and "If Love" did not lose money, but it also did not meet expectations...

Chen Kexin is ready to make blockbusters: "In the current stage of the Chinese film market, theoretically speaking, the risk of blockbusters is minimal..."

"A movie is a blockbuster, in addition to the quality of the movie itself, if the production is big, there will be a lot of people's attention, and there will be greater efforts to play a role in the marketing, promotion, theaters and audience expectations of the film, when these are in place, it is very difficult for a movie not to make money!

"It may have a bad reputation, but a movie with a bad reputation ends up selling a lot of money..."

"I purely stand in terms of film business, in fact, the return on large-scale movies is relatively stable!"

Chen Xi shook his head: "The problem now is that the overseas copyright of costume blockbusters is not as easy to sell as before..."

"Because of "Wu Ji"?"

"That's right, before "Wu Ji", most Chinese costume blockbusters could sell out the copyright, and now, they all sign account-sharing contracts... They don't want to gamble anymore! ”

Qin Hong interjected: "I heard that the overseas copyright of "Golden Armor" can't be bought out? ”

Shen Xudong shook his head: "The main reason for "Golden Armor" is that "Ambush on All Sides" did not sell well, and Sony lost money... So, this time it's cautious! ”

"Then "Wuji" lost?"

"I don't know..."

Chen Xi interjected: ""Wuji" was returned in North America, and the distribution rights of Japanese benzene were only sold for $4.5 million, and Europe is currently sold for $6 million... For the time being, it has not been returned, and the impact is indeed far-reaching, the North American copyright of "Night Banquet" has not yet been settled, and only the United Kingdom in Europe is now sold for $1 million, and the transaction volume in the Japanese benzene market is only $4 million..."

"Doesn't that mean that the overseas market for costume films doesn't exist?"

"By case,"

Chen Xi explained: "Jackie Chan's "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" sold more than 30 million US dollars of overseas copyrights..."

"There have to be big stars involved!"

"What does Xudong think?"

“… I don't usually make blockbuster films, I'm better at medium-investment works..."

""Glory of the Tang Dynasty" is a blockbuster!"

Shen Xudong shook his head: "That's because Jackie Chan has joined, otherwise, this story won't be big!" ”

"In fact, "Stinging Horse" is the same, if we find Li Lianlian to play Pang Qingyun, the cost will be 200 million... That's got to be a blockbuster. ”

“… I read your script, "The Stinging Horse"... No, will it be a little too deep? Not commercial enough? ”

"Therefore, if you want to make a blockbuster, one is to invite Li Lian to join, the second is to co-produce it with China Film, and the third is to put it in the summer file... Don't put it in the Lunar New Year stall..."

"Casting a Name" itself is not suitable for making a big investment, its theme is quite dark, and the era in which it takes place does not allow individual heroes!

Therefore, the effect of Chen Kexin's shooting: the color is gray and cold, the light and shadow are flickering and dark, there are no rich and gorgeous costumes, and there is no pomp and circumstance of Jin Ge Iron Horse.

is in line with the movie itself, but... It doesn't meet the audience's expectations of watching the movie...

It's cruel!

Chen Kexin nodded: "Co-produced by China Film..."

"Yes, blockbusters must attract investment from China Film, and China Film generally will not let the films it participate in lose money!"
