Four hundred and seventieth chapters two sides and three knives
In the screening room, "Lizard Man" was still being shown, but "Lizard Man" did not have the same shocking feeling as "Superman". Instead, the appearance of "Lizard Man" made it difficult for some viewers to accept it for a while, especially
These are some scenes when "transforming", which make people feel a little uncomfortable instinctively...
Of course, the 3D special effects and pictures are still very exquisite, but the movie has a gloomy atmosphere from beginning to end. The most shot are sewers, damp and dim alley entrances, and corners.
Some fans think the opening of this movie is great, giving it a sense of déjà vu like an alternative blockbuster, while some fans are not used to this dark style and instinctively feel fear.
Zhao Fang doesn't pay attention to these things.
His eyes were fixed on the door of the screening room from beginning to end.
When he decided to compromise the situation again, he saw Zhou Yilin running outside the theater and making a phone call.
This time the phone call took a long time, and it was not until about halfway through the screening of "Lizard Man" that Zhao Fang saw Zhou Yilin walking over slowly and holding the phone.
"Director Zhou, what did President Feng say?"
"no problem……"
"How did you talk to President Feng?"
"We just talked about the current situation in the meeting and future plans. In fact, President Feng is not such a stingy person. He also feels a little guilty about your "Our Country" deep down..."
"Oh, that means..."
"Yes! Don't worry."
After seeing Zhou Yilin's smiling expression, Zhao Fang's uneasy mood finally relaxed: "Then, when will it be released?"
"It'll be fine in the afternoon..."
"Really? So soon? Will Zhou Yang's side... interfere with it?"
"Don't worry... Zhou Yang knows the situation better than anyone else. Although he definitely feels aggrieved about this matter, he can only bow his head."
"oh oh."
People always have to bow to life and the situation.
Among the older generation of directors, Zhao Fang also struggled for many years.
After you got through it, didn't you give up on the National Day premiere of "Our Country" because of Chen Kai's words such as "Chinese directors must unite and act unanimously" and "drive out this rat shit that breaks the rules"?
Zhao Fang thought of his own situation and then of Zhou Yang.
Although he didn't know what happened, he felt that Zhou Yang must have bowed to something.
after all……
Who would believe that Zhou Yang would voluntarily give up his support for "film support and policy express"?
Thinking of this, Zhao Fang felt much better.
……………………
"Zhou Yang compromised a lot this time..."
"My feeling is that I can't suppress it any longer. If I suppress it, it will easily backfire..."
"The "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" given to us by the relevant departments is an opportunity, and we have appropriately released some goodwill to Zhou Yang. I personally feel that authorizing the movie "Our Country" to Xingyang for broadcast can be regarded as something we have done to Zhou Yang.
The attitude of the relevant departments is that after all, these two couples are wearing the same pants..."
"In addition to "Our Country", Xingyang also wanted several other movies. Naturally, I rejected these..."
"These people are simply too greedy. How could it be possible to license films such as "Sword God", Xiao Bin's police movie "Darkness", and Zhang Liansong's "Beast" to Xing Yang? Who is he, Zhou Yang?
?”
"..."
Feng Minmin's smile gradually faded after he hung up the phone.
Zhou Yilin seemed to have no problem doing what he said, but he instinctively felt Zhou Yilin's ambition.
In the association, some directors have become very close to Zhou Yilin recently, and they get along extremely well with everyone. Now is the special time for the change of directors...
The more Feng Minmin thought about it, the more he felt that Zhou Yilin had too many things planned.
Naturally, he became vigilant.
Moreover, he was keenly aware that Zhou Yilin, a smiling tiger, seemed to be thinking about the China Film Association in every word he said, and seemed to be talking about all kinds of things for the association. But maybe with Zhou Yang's "Young Directors"
"Association" also has such inextricable connections. It is very likely that all of this is a trap set up by Zhou Yilin and Zhou Yang together to set them up.
But Feng Minjun couldn't do anything now, and was only in the stage of doubt. Zhou Yilin was now very popular in the association, and many directors had a good impression of him. He could only wait for the time being.
Ten o'clock in the morning.
Feng Minmin received a call from Shen Jinsong.
"Director Shen, what's wrong?"
"President Feng, I want to talk to you."
"We can chat on the phone."
"I'll come over and talk to you."
"okay."
Shen Jinsong's phone call was filled with complicated emotions. Feng Minjian rarely heard such emotions in Shen Jinsong's voice. He instinctively realized that there was something hidden in Shen Jinsong's heart.
About half an hour later, there was a knock on the door in the office, and then he saw Shen Jinsong looking anxious, with a hint of worry.
"I've seen "The Lizard"."
"How's it going? This movie..."
"The filming is quite in-depth, and the description of human nature is more detailed than that of "Superman". It is one of the few superhero movies, but..."
"but what?"
"I saw at the scene that many fans didn't like the look of the Lizard Man. In order to pursue the realism of the combination of human genes and lizard genes, director Cisco Rowe Paige filled the movie with too many "uncanny valley" elements, especially
Many children were frightened on the spot because of the transformation scenes. I am afraid that the audience of this movie is not as big as that of "Superman"..." Shen Jinsong sat opposite Feng Ruijin and expressed his feelings about "Lizard Man" very seriously.
》The senses and the reaction of the audience. After finishing speaking, he looked into the distance, hesitating to speak.
"The audience is not that high?"
"In addition to young people, there are also some children in superhero movies. Judging from the review, there is nothing wrong with "The Lizard Man", but when you actually watch it, it still makes people's skin crawl. This is not like a superhero movie.
A hero movie is more like a monster movie... And the ending of the movie, how should I put it, is quite unacceptable. In order to make a sequel, the director deliberately resurrected the villain who is so disgusting that it makes people grit their teeth in an Easter egg... It's too deliberate.
, after watching the movie, I immediately checked the ratings on the Internet, and the ratings on the Internet were much lower than those of "Superman"..."
"This is a good thing, it shows that Hollywood movies are not invincible, right?" Feng Minmin said cheerfully.
"Yes, it is indeed."
After Shen Jinsong looked at Feng Ruimin's cheerful expression, he suddenly smiled and nodded.
Then the two chatted about other things about Hollywood movies, and also talked about the release date of Shen Jinsong's movie "Sword God".
But Shen Jinsong was always in a state of absent-mindedness, which made the chat freeze several times.
It was not until noon that Shen Jinsong left the office under Feng's sharp and suspicious eyes.
After leaving the office, Feng Minmin felt that there seemed to be an indescribable sense of estrangement between him and Shen Jinsong.
It was as if Shen Jinsong suddenly changed into a different person.
Outside the office.
Shen Jinsong got into the car and looked into the distance. His originally calm expression suddenly turned unwilling, his face briefly distorted, then his eyes became cold, and finally turned into disappointment.
After watching "The Lizard Man", he not only realized that Hollywood movies are not invincible, but also saw an opportunity!
At the same time, he was deeply aware of how stupid and chilling Feng Ruijian's behavior was.
Based on his judgment and vision of movies over the years, he determined that "The Lizard" is most likely to be a waterloo for Hollywood superhero movies.
The box office won't be bad, but because of the audience, this movie won't be a hit!
If "Sword God" is released on October 1st and competes with "Lizard Man", it is very likely that "Sword God" will become famous in one battle!
The first Chinese movie in history to beat Hollywood movies!
What an honor that is?
"How about the pre-sale tickets and film schedule for "Phone Booth" now?"
"Some more have been added now..."
“What’s the rating of ‘The Lizard Man’?”
"Around 7.9, more and more viewers commented on Douban that this movie made them feel physically uncomfortable..."
"..."
Shen Jinsong closed his eyes while listening.
Finally he sighed quietly.
……………………
Victoria Song walked out of the cinema.
She watched "The Lizard Man" first and then watched "The Youth We Chased Together".
"Lizard Man" made her very uncomfortable. Halfway through watching it, she realized that she really couldn't stand it anymore.
The look is disgusting, and she really doesn't like such "superheroes".
However, the movie "The Youth We Chased Together" healed her.
Well, of course it was inevitable that I would be moved to pieces.
The manager next to her, Xu Xiaohua, chatted endlessly with her about the promotion of tomorrow's album "The Farthest Distance".
Victoria Song listened and nodded seriously.
"Sissi..."
"What's wrong? Sister Xu."
"Have you ever considered starting a personal studio?"
"What personal studio?"
"You now have good looks, and even more amazing creative talent that is not inferior to Mr. Zhou. Being a signed artist of China Star all the time seems a bit unfair to me. I personally suggest that you consider setting up your own independent studio. When the time comes,
, I will help you pick up business outside, and you can make more money..." The afternoon sun shone on the face of agent Xu Xiaohua, and Xu Xiaohua kept talking.
"Sister Xu, do you want me to leave Huaxing independently?" Song Qianqian frowned when she heard this.
"Sissi, your future is to be a queen. The queen of the entire Chinese music scene is very likely to go overseas to develop... You have to take a longer view. Huaxing, in a sense, really limits you." Xu Xiaohua stared at it seriously.
Song Qianqian: "It doesn't necessarily mean going out independently. We can discuss it, first affiliate with Huaxing to operate independently, and then slowly separate from Huaxing..."
"I won't do these things."
"You must be rational and not too emotional. Sissi, everything I say is for your own good... When you were weak in the past, Huaxing could be a towering tree to shade you. Now that you have grown up, you are on your own. This land
There is no space for nourishment... To put it bluntly, besides you, who else can be a good singer among Huaxing singers now? No one pays attention to you at all... The focus is not on you, and do you know how much you are worth now?
?Already close to the tens of millions level..."
"I will not leave Huaxing..." Song Qianqian frowned more and more deeply, feeling particularly disgusted with what her manager Xu Xiaohua said: "You know why I can create so much music..."
Just when Victoria Song shook her head and wanted to say something, her phone rang.
When the other party announced her home, Song Qianqian was stunned.
