Chapter 58 The Circle (3/5)

It’s useless to envy, everyone has their own personality!

When asked about Chen Mengxi, they all have questions that are not suitable for showing off.

"I heard that Tang Ren wants to make a science fiction film?"

"Well, we have plans for this, but we can't make big investments in science fiction films as soon as we start. They may be a bit more humane... "The Sad One" and "Song of Life" are very suitable for soft science fiction..."

"Everyone's mindset is that Chinese directors cannot make good science fiction films. Do you think that with the current industrial conditions, Chinese directors can make science fiction films of technology and story that are comparable to Hollywood's level?"

"It may be good, or it may not be good. No one is sure of this, but let it happen first! Moreover, I really don't think there is anything difficult about science fiction films. We are not much different from Western people's brain capacity. I think it is very possible. Whether it is OK, the key is to try it. If you don't even try it, don't make a conclusion. If you say that you can't shoot well, it's self-reliance and don't have the courage. You can fail, but you still have to do it!"

"There is a controversial statement about whether it is controversial to save the world by yellow skin on the Internet, what do you think?"

"I think it's still a problem with the oriental aesthetic system. "Future Police" looks very exaggerated and feels fake, but even if the special effects reach the top and Iron Man's level, you take off your hat and see that it's a Chinese, and subconsciously feels it's not suitable. Because we haven't experienced the industrial revolution, most viewers don't have that kind of emotion about mechanical things. Why does the United States have "Transformers"? Because it has cars. Many Americans have lived in cars since childhood. Cars are almost their second home, so he has deep emotional links to cars."

"But we don't, so we have to find a design structure that makes us feel intimate, including color matching, these things need to be strengthened and retained... I won't talk about what we have done later. This took us half a year to study. If we wait for another two years, we will do a real hard science fiction step!"

"Then do you think soft science fiction will sell well?"

"I think no matter what type of thing, the core of a movie is characters and emotions. It is impossible to make a movie without emotion, that would be boring. On the contrary, if you find that emotion and make it empathize with the audience, this is a good movie."

"Thanks…"

"You're welcome."

After the interview, Chen Mengxi walked into the hall.

...

It can be said that the box office disappointment of "The Key of Lucky" swept away "The Piano of Steel" and the disappointment of "The Donkey Gets Water" has inspired the entire company.

Of course, the final score of this movie is 7.8, which is not as good as "Piano of Steel" and "Donkey Gets Water". However, the secondary market does not recognize the ratings, but only recognizes the box office.

"I found this problem, too."

Li Yiping asked: "It seems that we will reduce the investment in this type of film in the future?"

Chen Mengxi shook his head: "No need, independent filming is simple, suitable for training newcomers. We always have to be ahead of the market... The lesson of this is that these not-so-selling movies will be released in the future, and you must match a top-selling movie in the same schedule..."

"So, colleagues who are released in "Hunting", have you arranged for "Big Man" to be released?"

"Yes..." After pausing, Chen Mengxi asked again: "How is Tang Yan doing recently?"

Li Yiping: "It's pretty good, I'm filming "Battle Flag"..."

Seeing that Chen Mengxi was a little confused, she explained again: "A anti-Japanese war drama directed by Mao Weining and starring Wang Lei!"

"Is it another anti-Japanese drama?"

"A new-style anti-Japanese war drama customized by Jiangsu Satellite TV, the hero returned from studying abroad, received higher education, with a foreign manner, and a combination of high-level knowledge, elites, blood and tenderness..."

"Okay!" Chen Mengxi rolled her eyes almost to the sky: "Don't tell me..."

"Aheading the Fire of the Artillery" Fan's anti-Japanese drama - A handsome anti-Japanese war!

"After this drama, let Wang Lei act in a few urban dramas..."

Li Yiping also smiled: "Okay, I understand."

From "The Indelible Number", Wang Lei killed eight columns of devils in Hengdian last year and starred in four different anti-Japanese dramas, "Chinese Cavalry", "Iron In Burning", "Heroic Mission", "God of War", and "God of War". The quality is uneven, especially "Heroic Mission". He himself complained that the drama was also called "The Women's Rangers", a group of beautiful actresses fighting against Japan...

If it weren't for picking up girls, he wouldn't have taken on this show!

His wife Li Xiaomeng is the female lead in this drama...

To put it in, these dramas are basically not Tang Ren’s main investment, nor is it the job of Mengxi’s screenwriter team, but just follow-up investment.

Chen Mengxi chatted with Li Yiping for a few words, and then saw Wang Changtian in surprise!

He took the cup and walked over: "…Mr. Wang?"

"Mr. Chen!"

"Congratulations, "The Key of Lucky" was a big hit at the box office."

"Thanks."

...

If divided by small circles, Mengxi is quite close to the light.

Many films in Mengxi need to rely on the light's ground network distribution agency. Last year's "Surveyors" and "Return to Twenty" were all supported by light, and the filming was still OK.

The release of "Lucky Key" also comes with the help of the Light Team...

However, Lao Wang must have waited for the Three Treasures Palace without any trouble.

What's more, this is Shanghai!

"I'll hold a meeting. I heard that you are holding a celebration banquet here, so I came here..."

Have a meeting...

It should be a roadshow!

This roadshow is not a movie roadshow, but a promotional meaning. Light Media will be launched in August...

Chen Mengxi smiled: "Tongxi."

Light belongs to the joint issuer, has basically no income, and belongs to the small shareholder...

But it is easy to make a joint production of a big-selling movie and the joint release of it, which is equivalent to a promotion of the company.

Wang Changtian didn't come to Xu and asked directly: "I heard that you won't be a movie this year's National Day?"

"It's not that it's not bad, it's just that there are no screenings for the National Day holiday. "Source Code" is released in late September, and "Giant Crocodile Storm" is released in mid-October..."

"Why are this arrangement?"

"You can't beat yourself... We have movies released every month."

Wang Changtian nodded and asked tentatively: "I heard that "The Legend of White Snake" is looking for a publisher?"

Chen Mengxi nodded: "I know this, it seems that Bona accepted it."

In "The Legend of the White Snake", Mr. Yang spent a lot of money to support his mistress. No, it should be a movie where his wife rose to power. The stars gathered together, Li Lianjie played Fahai, and even the guest star was Guo Xianni!

"You don't like this movie?"

"I haven't watched it...but I really have no interest in movies made by outsiders!"
