In the past two years, I can still see the Chinese army stationed in Cannes to sell films, and in a few years, there will be almost no more people who sell films, and they are basically here to buy copyrights...

Why?

The market is expanding, and the mainland market is enough to eat.

On the other hand, the genre of Chinese-language films is becoming more and more homogeneous, and the market is full of local comedies and local youth films, which usually do not sell well overseas.

In recent years, the highest-grossing ones are still action movies and Cheng Long.

This is true in the world's mainstream film markets, with one of the highest-grossing films being Hollywood films and the other being local commercial films.

Films from other countries are non-mainstream in the Chinese market, and Chinese films are definitely non-mainstream in other countries' markets!

Including Mengxi's films, it's all the same, the more than 20-minute trailer of "The Watchers" is all called back and forth, and only then did it sell $3 million in overseas copyrights...

"Painted Skin" is a special case, and it has been laid out around the Korean and Japanese benzene markets from the beginning, and it took five full years to become a well-known big IP.

So in this series, Shen Mengxi can't cut it casually.

Maintain the efficiency of one per year...

"The Hunt" is different, this film has been a Hollywood movie from the beginning, but it is controlled and distributed by Bren House, so after the awards, the distribution contract in 198 countries and regions was directly signed...

Leonardo's name is so good...

Of course, the 30% investment in the Appian Way, plus Leonardo's 20% share, is indeed speechless.

But this must be given - the selling point of "The Hunt" is Shleonardo, if someone else is replaced, the probability of this drama being a blockbuster is very small!

"The Hunt" was a commercial success, but it was still a pity that it didn't win the Palme d'Or...

Shen Mengxi is still a little worried, will the country say that he is pretending to be forced or something...

Thinking too much, he doesn't know, the country is already boiling!

......

Shen Mengxi's experience is legendary!

At first, it was just written, and then it transformed into a movie, not a director, but a producer, because of a tear, he filmed "Manchester by the Sea", and then won the Cannes Jury Prize, and by the way, Leonardo won the Oscar;

After two years, "Hunting" once again wrote and directed himself, Leonardo won the Cannes Best Actor again, and he himself won the Cannes Best Director Award!

This is the third Chinese director after Wong Kar-wai and Yang Dechang to win the Best Director at Cannes, and since then, the three regions across the Taiwan Strait have been on an equal footing in the Best Director at Cannes.

Mostly, he is only 26 years old.

"At the end of the Cannes Film Festival, although "Hunting" unfortunately lost the Palme d'Or, it won two awards for Best Director and Best Actor, becoming the biggest winner!"

At the just-concluded Cannes Film Festival, "Hunting", directed by Shen Mengxi and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, was highly recognized by the highest jury of the film festival and won two awards for best director and best director in one fell swoop. ”

"Next Master?"

In the mainland, the front pages of several major portals have all been replaced with similar titles, and there is even a title of 'Next Stop, Master'!

It's the master!

can win the Cannes Award, representing Shen Mengxi's film, and his artistic attainments are higher!

Anyway, if Shen Mengxi scares people in the future, basically no one will say anything...

Of course, Shen Mengxi didn't see this title, and if he saw it, he would definitely scold him: What does it mean to be a master? It means losing money!

Your whole family is a master...

Online platforms and print media are reporting wildly!

Even the next morning's "Morning News of the World" had a report of about three minutes, and by the way, there was also news of Sino-French and Chinese-Chinese co-produced films, as well as Shen Mengxi's face: "Chinese films want to go out, co-production is the most trouble-free way, borrow a boat to go to sea..."

In the past few days, whether you want to know about related news or not, anyway, click on a webpage, there is news from Shen Mengxi...

It's an exaggeration, it seems that Shen Mengxi has done a great thing!

It's quite remarkable, especially with the box office of "Painted Skin 3" breaking 700 million, adding another fire - the main publicity hit: the father of painted skin!

What does the father of "Painted Skin" mean?

It's that all the actors who participated in the painting called him Dad...

Joke...

This title is worthy of its name, the first movie of "Painted Skin", from director Wu Ershan, Taoist actors Chen Kun, Zhou Xun, and Zhao Bafei, are all contacted by Shen Mengxi...

Guo Fan of "Painted Skin 3" was also set by Shen Mengxi!

His name as Bole broke out through the big sale of "Painted Skin 3" and the Cannes award of "Hunting"!

Including some of the directors and actors who were dug up before...

The publicity of "Painted Skin 3" in the later stage basically rubbed Shen Mengxi's popularity - who made Shen Mengxi famous during this time.

Director Wang Jiawei also came out of the circle again - if it weren't for his sentence 'Shen Mengxi is just a businessman and doesn't understand movies', Shen Mengxi probably wouldn't have picked up the guide tube himself.

......

On May 23, the day after the end of Cannes, the capital airport.

Zhao Jinsong appeared at the exit of the airport, and then a group of reporters surrounded him!

I want to get first-hand information.

"Has the mainland release of "Hunting" been arranged?"

"Can you talk about the cooperation between Dream Creek and Gaumont Pictures and Constantine Pictures? Will you participate in Resident Evil?"

Of course, Zhao Jinsong replied kindly:

""The Hunt" has been scheduled to be released in June, but the specific release situation has to wait for the arrangement of the United States, because this movie is scheduled to be celebrated..."

"Our cooperation with Gaumont and Konstantin is beneficial for all three parties... As for "Resident Evil", we have not intervened for the time being, because this series is relatively mature, however, there may be a few zombie films in the future..."

Lao Zhao is really a qualified professional manager, once he enters the interview mode, he immediately becomes a master of painting cakes...

He knew what the reporters were reporting, and he followed their words.

Of course, the reporters didn't really care about him, and while interviewing, they stared at the exit...

For a long time, I didn't see Shen Mengxi come out, so I couldn't help it, and asked, "Where is Mr. Shen?"

"He's gone to the United States, there's something else!"

“... America, for the release of "Hunting"?"

"That's not it, it's The Great Wall..."

"The Great Wall?"

For "The Great Wall", David and Nancy both suggested that Shen Mengxi choose a black actor to participate, even if it was just a soy sauce role with a face.

With the popularity of several dramas, Bren House is also targeted...

A hit, without black actors, it's called racism...

The investment in "The Great Wall" is as high as 100 million US dollars, which is an A-level project...

It's understandable to be targeted.

Shen Mengxi simply set up a servant role for the protagonist, and the servant is a black actor.

This matter is easy to solve, there is no need to make a special trip to North America, he came over, mainly because of "The Hunger Games".
