Most of the script for "Moon" was created by Li Ding'an himself. Of course, Zhao Liming also did a lot of assistance in revising it, so both of them are very familiar with the content of the script.
Of course Zhao Liming knows that up to now, the script of "Moon" almost does not need to be revised, because after countless polishings, it can now be said to be almost perfect. The so-called "polishing the script again" is just to deal with some current problems.
Awkward situation.
Just like the protagonist in a movie script, a person is placed on the moon, lonely and helpless, but he can only continue to do boring work every day.
The only motivation to persevere is the image of my loved ones from the earth.
Now, for Li Ding'an, the motivation to persevere is...someone may invest in him in the future and let him make his film.
Zhao Liming understands this feeling very well, because she also feels this way.
"Actually, don't be too discouraged. Let's just continue looking for investment."
Zhao Liming finally said something innocuous.
Well, I have been saying this for several years. Only this year I saw hope, but the hope was immediately shattered.
So Zhao Liming and Li Ding'an continued their speechless silence.
I don't know how long it had been quiet, but suddenly, a message notification sound came from Li Ding'an's and Zhao Liming's mobile phones at the same time.
The two looked at each other, smiled, and looked down at their phones.
"For the first time in film and television, fifty-eight fans and viewers have officially jointly sued the producers and promoters of the movie "Wandering Stars" in court!"
Ha, it seems like things are really getting serious.
However, neither Li Ding'an nor Zhao Liming could laugh.
Because they were also victims of "Wandering Stars", and it was because of this bad movie that a large number of investors eventually withdrew their funds, and their own projects were also affected.
A butterfly in Brazil flapped its wings and caused a storm in North America.
Is this the so-called butterfly effect?
"It's all the fault of the bad movie "Wandering Galaxy"..." After a long silence, Zhao Liming suddenly sighed and said.
Li Ding'an shook his head: "It's hard to explain this kind of thing. "Wandering Galaxy" is following the trend of "The Wandering Earth", but in the beginning it was because of the sci-fi craze caused by "The Wandering Earth" that there was suddenly so much investment.
Fang flooded into the science fiction film market, but in the end, because of the poor quality of the films that followed the trend, this wave of enthusiasm was poured cold water on..."
"So, in the final analysis, the root of everything is still "The Wandering Earth". However, I have to say that "The Wandering Earth" is really a good movie. The movie is right, but the fault is the impetuousness of the entire market."
Listening to Li Ding'an's conclusion, Zhao Liming suddenly had an idea.
"By the way, one of the investors in "The Wandering Earth", Ping An Investment owned by Chen Feng, seems to also invest in some film projects."
Zhao Liming said in a deep voice.
"You said... if our "Moon" goes to the investors of "The Wandering Earth" and Ping An invests... is that okay?"
"In addition, An Ruohua, one of the principals of Ping An Investment, is actually an alumnus of me, but... we are too far apart..."
"If I find someone to help pull the strings, I wonder if I will have a chance to meet and chat with them."
As Zhao Liming spoke, the expression on his face became excited.
Go find Ping An Investment, which invested in "The Wandering Earth"?
Zhao Liming and Li Ding'an had never thought of this idea before.
Because in their subconscious, it seems that their group is too far away from Chen Feng, Ping An Investment, Beidou Entertainment, and they are simply out of reach.
And because "The Wandering Earth" caused a huge sensation, many people only regarded this film as a cultural symbol, and finally ignored some of the things behind it.
It wasn't until Zhao Liming heard Li Ding'an talk about "The Wandering Earth" that she suddenly thought of this possibility.
Not to mention, after thinking about it carefully, Zhao Liming felt more and more that there seemed to be some hope.
Because she and An Ruohua are indeed considered schoolmates. Although they are separated by a long time, it is not impossible to establish a connection with An Ruohua through the relationship between the school and An Ruohua.
In addition, in Zhao Liming's memory, Ping An Investment seemed to have invested in two low-cost films, and both seemed to be successful in the end.
One is "Shark Beach", and the other is the award-winning literary film "Living Alone" in foreign countries.
Judging from the styles of these two films, Ping An Investment seems to be very interested in this kind of low-cost but creative work. Maybe, the "Moon" produced by myself and Li Ding'an will also win their favor.
If we can get funds from Ping An Investment, everything will be easier.
After listening to Zhao Liming's words, Li Ding'an was also in a daze.
Looking for investors in "The Wandering Earth", Ping An Investment?
Is this... really possible?
Even if it is feasible...but is it necessary to take this step?
There is also a trace of pride hidden in Li Ding'an's heart.
Although he thought "The Wandering Earth" was very good, he also felt that his "Moon" was not bad at all.
Even before his "Moon" was filmed, he had this kind of confidence.
Subconsciously, Li Ding'an actually had a challenging mentality towards "The Wandering Earth".
But now, as a challenger, he actually wants to ask the other party for help.
This feeling is a bit sour.
But the reality is this. Given his current situation, it would be the best way to try Ping An Investment.
So... after another long silence, Li Dingan finally nodded slowly towards Zhao Liming.
Zhao Liming stepped forward and rubbed Li Ding'an's shoulders.
"No matter what, we have to find a way to make the movie first, right?"
Li Ding'an hummed, but soon he returned to his original mental state.
"When are you going to find Ping An Investment? I'll go with you to talk to them."
Zhao Liming smiled and said, "Let's wait and see. I'll go to my former teacher first to help contact him."
In fact, Zhao Liming understood Li Ding'an's mentality very well. If he went to someone from Ping An Investment for help, he would definitely feel a little unhappy or... frustrated.
But he quickly adjusted his mentality back.
Because he didn't want Zhao Liming to face so many things alone. As the main creator of "Moon" and Zhao Liming's man, of course he had to be at the forefront.
Even though he felt a little uncomfortable, he was able to hide his pride and digest it himself.
This is also a sign of a mature man.
After making up his mind, Zhao Liming was busy contacting his teacher soon.
And Li Ding'an also regrouped and prepared to deal with the negotiations with Ping An Investment.
