Chapter 173: Guaranteed Issuance? (3rd Update)
Old Yu Zhen, he didn't expect Shen Mengxi to put the target on him at all...
In the past two years since PropNex went public, it has completely fallen behind...
Betting heavily on the Hong Kong circle, "Big Shanghai", "Hedong Lion's Roar 2", "Stunning Weapon", "Laughing Gong Zhen Wulin".
All kinds of losses!
In the original time and space, he could still rely on "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" to successfully turn over...
This wave is completely out of play!
"I'll say something unpleasant, the film industry itself is a short board industry, and the lack of every link may lead to a total collapse!"
"As for U.S.-China cooperation... We can receive more than 100 scripts every year, but 95% of them are directly killed by the project review department, the reason is very simple, Chinese and American cultures themselves are different, we are a socialist country with public ownership as the main body, the United States is a capitalist country, the two ideologies are naturally opposed, movies, unless it is a blockbuster that only pursues sensory stimulation, otherwise, there must be ideological things!"
"Let's just say "The Great Wall", when the project was established, our North American producer forced me to add a black character, and he said that this is called political correctness! No way, I can only change the original white character to a black person!"
"U.S.-China co-productions won't go mainstream, just as Bona won't go mainstream in the U.S."
"Including Burun House, the projects we do every year are basically non-mainstream projects..."
Yu Dong: "I went to the United States to be listed with my ideals and enthusiasm, and I think there are a lot of things to be listed in the United States, which is indeed a big cost for communication..."
Balabala...
Never mention the Sino-American co-production...
Shen Mengxi took over the topic and concluded: "How Hollywood faces the global market, how to organically combine Chinese elements and global elements very naturally, this is not just something that can be solved by adding a few Chinese actors..."
"Cloud Atlas", "Ring Messenger", "The Expendables 3", "Iron Man 3"... I think that adding a few Chinese actors, and some even launched a special Chinese version, this is called a Sino-US co-production?"
"I really can't figure out sometimes that movies are so attractive?"
"Let me say more, the genre films with the least ideological barriers in the world are actually action movies and thrillers... We're working with Warner Herzo on a shark film, which is also a big production with an investment of over 100 million dollars, the script has been completed, and the actors and directors are being selected..."
......
Next door, Guo Jingming is pretending to be forced:
"The audience is getting younger and younger, and in 2012 it has dropped to 21.5 years old, and it is outdated to make films with the ideas of the previous generation. And with the influx of more and more new audiences, the market is still old-fashioned, and there will be a kind of hunger, and once something that meets the needs of young people comes out, it will be successful..."
"It's a huge void, everybody chooses to ignore it, the previous generation didn't have the concept of materiality, everybody dressed the same, they ate the same, they were faced with the problem of survival. What people are facing today is not the struggle of survival, but the struggle of people has become the struggle of material choice, the struggle of the gap between the rich and the poor, and the struggle of unequal family origin. ”
"'Little Times' tells such a story!"
No one birds him...
How to say it...
The traditional film industry is still a bit ranked according to seniority, and pays attention to professional background...
Why was Shen Mengxi quickly accepted by the circle?
He graduated from Nortel's Department of Literature!
When he won the Oscar, Nortel celebrated with a banner - warmly celebrate Shen Mengxi, an alumnus of the school, for winning the Oscar for Best Director!
Guo Jingming...
A person who doesn't have any film and television background!
And the bad track record ...
Why do you hate the success of "Little Times" so much?
Is it jealousy?
"Wolf Warrior 2" took 5.6 billion, and the mainstream is not particularly jealous of him!
Mainstream audiences scolded Little Times" because its director is called Guo Jingming, a man with a plagiarism record!
is still the same sentence, the public order or the core values of socialism are in line with the moral norms in our hearts, a man who violates moral standards actually licks his face and says, 'I am the Chinese dream of the new era'...
Look for scolding!
Critics scolded him because the ideology of "Little Times" was right-leaning...
Can't tell the ideology?
Compare the perspective of the news horizontally, Qu Xiaonu's mother and laid-off workers, do you sympathize with her mother, or laid-off workers?
"Little Times" depicts the story of the upper class...
Back at the forum, why are you reluctant to deal with him?
Because "Little Times" hasn't been released yet!
It doesn't matter, when "Little Times" starts, everyone will know how powerful fan movies are.
......
On the night of the Mengxi movie, Shen Mengxi, as the host, announced the list of films for the next three years.
There are three sections, large-production, medium-production, and animated films.
released the three co-productions of "The Martian", "Megalodon" and "Sky Rescue"...
"There is still a long way to go for Chinese capital to enter the U.S. film industry, and I don't want Chinese companies to become bank ATMs in the U.S. film industry. ”
"Of course, I have the money to buy an American company, in fact, S Studio and Blunwu are all companies that I absolutely control, but they are useless, and they still have to rely on Hollywood talents and storytelling ability, and it is unlikely to tell Chinese stories, far from cultural export. ”
"'The Great Wall' was really lucky... We were released on the same schedule as "The Lone Ranger", "Underworld Police Station", and "Shocking Crisis", and all three movies fired squibs at the same time..."
"Why do you make blockbusters?"
"Big productions are the backbone of Chinese films, because technological progress can best push us to catch up with Hollywood, and the success of small and medium-budget films can indeed bring vitality to the industry, but blockbusters can really determine the standard of the entire industry. ”
"And if we go to make small productions, who makes big films?"
Shen Mengxi... The whole person has an extra layer of self-confidence.
He used to be confident, but he would be a little more restrained when he spoke, and now...
Exactly 'if you disagree, take it over!'
After chatting with a few familiar reporters, Shen Mengxi found Ye Twist and thanked him in person...
Thank you indeed...
"The Great Wall" is still in Wanda's film schedule for more than 35%...
Te gave face!
Who knows, Ye Xuan smiled bitterly: "Wanda should thank you, we made a movie the year before last, and "The Great Wall" is the only profitable project!"
“... It's okay, it's not about accumulating experience, and luck is very important in film investment!"
Shen Mengxi smiled and said with relief...
You can't say, 'It's okay, it's a loss, you're used to it'...
Well, Wanda has indeed suffered various losses in the past two years, "Listener to the Wind", "Small Fish Eat Big Fish", and there will be a "Tai Chi Man" soon...
Ye Twist changed the topic: "Is Mengxi Media going to release "Nine Tails" next month?"
"Well, I'm going to release it on July 12th. ”
"Can you sell the distribution rights to Wanda?"
Seeing Shen Mengxi's surprised face, Ye Xuan hurriedly added: "We will buy it out according to the box office of one billion!"
