This city seemed to give him a very strange meaning, and he began to re-examine the time he traveled through.
Whether it's Fatty Wei, Lu Yihong, Shen Lianjie, Li Qing...
Everyone is growing, and of course, he is also growing and working hard.
However, he had always had a sense of loneliness while growing up. After pursuing the happiness of money for a short period of time, the rest was filled with endless loneliness. He would always think, if one day, I spend all my money, what would I do? What to do.
Thinking about it turned into worry and knots in my heart.
This kind of loneliness is really uncomfortable, and he can't say that he is a time traveler. If he says so, everyone will think that there is something wrong with his brain and he will be locked up.
But now...
He was full of strength, those worries and loneliness before...
It's all started to be wiped out.
He looked back at Wang Jinxue beside the bed.
Pregnant women sometimes feel sleepy. Wang Jinxue accompanied Lu Yuan back to the hotel and fell asleep quietly.
He carefully got out of bed and walked silently to the study next door.
On the desk, Lu Yuan gently picked up the command draft written by Wang Jinxue and read it. At the same time, he searched the Internet for a lot of tutorials on command and a series of precautions.
Ten days.
He didn't know how much he could learn.
However, Lu Yuan felt that not everything might be the most deceptive and the worst ending.
After all, he is quite talented in music, and he studied seriously at Yanying Academy before. In addition, these days whenever he is free, he forces himself to learn a little bit of knowledge every day. Lu Yuan actually found that he is not slow in getting started. , at least he can understand a lot of relevant knowledge, and he can also simulate it in his mind.
He even carefully planned a detailed study plan for himself. He no longer thought about what would happen if he failed, how unbearable it would be, and how humiliating it would be.
Anyway...
He suddenly realized that what he needed was not too much praise, nor too much praise.
All he needs is understanding.
After understanding, failure doesn't seem so scary anymore?
and……
What if it succeeds?
What if, I really can?
"come on!"
He wrote two words in the blank space of the manuscript, then took a deep breath and started working hard.
…………………………
July is over.
August is finally here.
Lu Yuan lived in unparalleled heat in Austria, pumping himself every day and learning all kinds of knowledge about conducting types like crazy. At the same time, there was an unprecedented collision between the Chinese and Hollywood film circles.
August is a huge battlefield.
Li Mingrui silently looked at the poster of his movie "Blooded 3", and then walked into the cinema to watch the prologue of "Blooded 3" gradually begin.
The cinema was still very busy.
There are many directors who have emerged in Chinese films in the past two years, but there are only four truly new directors. Xu Qifeng is one, Shen Lianjie is another, Fatty Wei is another, and Li Qi is also one.
These four directors have performed well in the Chinese film industry and have broken the records of many new directors.
In fact, China has indeed produced a lot of talents in the past two years.
Li Mingrui was very pleased.
After all, the more emerging directors there are, the more I feel that the rise of Chinese cinema is not far away...
The days of Hollywood's rampage will eventually be broken.
However, when he thought of this, Li Mingrui's relief turned into helplessness...
Among the four emerging directors, there are only two "Remote" directors. Moreover, Shen Lianjie, who was originally not very good at "Remote", suddenly announced a few days ago that he has terminated his contract with Joaquin and has officially joined "Remote". "Yes.
Well, if you think about it, except for Xu Qifeng, almost all of China's new and powerful directors are "remote".
Do you think this is nonsense?
Later, Li Mingrui realized another even more deceptive thing!
He originally thought that Fatty Wei would be ranked first among these new directors. After all, he won the Best Director Award in one fell swoop, which was indeed impressive.
However, he found that he had ignored one person from beginning to end, and that person was Lu Yuan!
Perhaps it was because Lu Yuan was so ruthless in other areas and his other identity was so shocking that Li Mingrui almost forgot about Lu Yuan's other identity.
Lu Yuan himself can be regarded as a new director who has emerged in the past two years, and his "The Pianist" also won many Oscars and was nominated for the Best Director award...
Although it is only a nomination award, does anyone still question the gold content of the Oscar nomination award?
Li Mingrui suddenly didn't know what to say. It seemed like this guy Lu Yuan would get involved no matter what.
Although it is said that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, the waves behind the Yangtze River are really a bit too cruel, and they can become huge waves.
"call……"
never mind.
No matter what, in short, Chinese movies are gradually picking up. At least I don't have to worry about having no successors when I finally take my final bow.
Afterwards, Li Mingrui began to watch the "Bloodline 3" scene on the big screen carefully as the scenes gradually unfolded, accompanied by the sound of music slowly playing.
This is his last film.
He hopes that this movie can truly compete with Hollywood!
It’s good to win once!
…………………………
In fact, both Xu Qifeng and Shen Lianjie thought so.
Although Shen Lianjie is already a "remote" person, he still hopes to see this "Warframe" create value in a true sense and shine his own light.
It feels very bad that Hollywood is wreaking havoc on China. All directors hope that one day Chinese films will be able to compete with Hollywood.
The situation has gotten much better in the past two years.
Lu Yuan's movies have greatly suppressed the momentum of Hollywood movies.
However, Lu Yuan is only one person after all. While all directors and fans are proud of him, they also feel a little bit disappointed.
Can Lu Yuan's movies really represent China's overall movies?
Lu Yuan is so bright that it makes people feel like he doesn't look like a human being...
He is really such a monster that it makes people feel like they are not playing the same game.
The rise of Lu Yuan was like a call to action and stimulated many directors, who began to try to make movies with quality and hard work.
Now……
It's August.
August is a day when Hollywood movies are raging and Chinese movies are rebelling.
And August this year is particularly important.
This is almost a belief for many people, and they all place their hopes on this war.
If Chinese films can really withstand this wave and be on par with Hollywood films, then the future will represent the rise of Chinese films.
…………………………
The day passed quickly.
On the first day of the premiere, "Blooded 3" received a very good reputation, especially some of the thrilling scenes made with special effects in "Blooded 3", which made all movie fans hooked. Li Mingrui's shooting methods are also very good.
, directly and vividly demonstrated what "Bloodline 3" wants to express, and at the same time, the ending is also meaningful and makes people forget to leave.
The special effects of Xu Qifeng's "Alien" are very good, but its reputation is very average. Some people say that "Alien" is supported by special effects. In fact, it has no connotation and is empty. Some people say that this movie is
It's just a purely visual movie with no nutrition...
In fact, "Alien" is not a bad movie. On the contrary, it is better than Xu Qifeng's first two movies. However, it was released in August, and the ending is a bit cheating. After all, his movie was released in August.
The opponent is not only China, but also Hollywood. If you compare "Alien" with Hollywood blockbusters such as "Ares" and "The End of Mars", there is really a gap.
There is no way around it.
After all, both Smith, the director of "Ares", and Art, the director of "The Last of Us" are comparable to James in Hollywood. Compared with Xu Qifeng, such a powerful director is really asking too much.
As for Shen Lianjie's "Star Wars", the reputation is very bad. Although the special effects are very good, the plot is really empty, not even as good as Xu Qifeng's "Alien". After watching the whole movie, fans were confused.
I don’t know what I’m watching, but the biggest impression is that everyone is flying around in the sky. The special effects are very cool and explosive, and then...
Gone!
"Star Wars" was once again pulled out by all Chinese movie fans and scolded severely. Shen Lianjie was even considered to be the most bad-movie professional among the new directors who is best at making bad movies.
This is not a problem with Shen Lianjie's directing skills, but a complete script problem...
In short, after the first day of screening, when everyone looked at the word-of-mouth rankings, people in the Chinese film circle had a bad feeling for no reason.
certainly……
Everyone is still nervously waiting for the movie’s opening day box office results.
They are looking forward to the results of this confrontation!
……………………
August 2nd.
The box office is finally out.
"The Last Days of Mars" received a box office of 55 million yuan on its opening day in China, directly breaking the record of Hollywood movies in China and reaching the top, even surpassing the previous record set by Lu Yuan, becoming an absolute hit.
movie.
"The God of War" ranked second, with a box office of just over 50 million. It also had a brilliant record and exploded in popularity.
The third-placed "Island of Dawn" had a box office of 40 million, which also broke the box office record for the same type of suspense genre...
When the results of the box office rankings came out, everyone turned to fourth place.
They carry their last hope.
result……
They found that the fourth place was not Lee Mingrui's "Blooded 3", but a dark horse movie called "The Age of Heroes" directed by a newcomer. Lee Mingrui's "Blooded 3" was second only to "Heroic Age"
" took in 37 million box office.
The box office of 37 million is already a very good figure for the entire "Bloodline 3", and the record is also very good.
but……
He ultimately lost the opening box office battle.
Not ranked in the top four.
Xu Qifeng's "Alien" was also pretty good at the box office, with 30 million, and Shen Lianjie's "Star Wars" was not bad either, with 25 million...
However, none of these can conceal the fact that Chinese films were ultimately unable to withstand the impact of Hollywood films and still lost at the box office at the premiere.
…………………………
August 3rd.
If the box office results on the first day were disappointing, then the box office results on the second day were unacceptable.
The top three are still "The End of Mars", "Arrow", and "Island of Dawn", with 52 million, 48 million, and 39 million respectively. The fourth place is still the dark horse "Heroes" "Era" has 34 million, and the fifth place is "Bloodline 3" with 30 million...
As for Xu Qifeng's movie "Alien", it dropped to 25 million.
And Shen Lianjie...
Fourteen million!
Under the impact of these blockbusters, the box office of Shen Lianjie's "Star Wars" has reached a very dangerous point...
seem……
On the street again.
…………………………
After Li Mingrui saw this data, he let out a long sigh.
He knew that his "Blooded 3" really couldn't beat the three Hollywood blockbusters.
The investment in these three blockbusters is more severe than that of "Bloodshed 3", and the publicity intensity is also very terrifying.
Li Mingrui is really inferior to him.
China Film should have lost the movie war in August. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Except for my own "Bloodshed 3", which can be considered as a strong card, other movies are not even enough to watch.
This feeling of disappointment is beyond words.
Of course, if you think about it, it's not unacceptable. In fact, the box office of his movies is also very good. Except for Shen Lianjie's movie "Dangerous", other movies are pretty good.
Disappointment is a disappointment, at least, Chinese films are making progress, right?
After all, it was a Hollywood blockbuster. After all, Rome was not built in a day.
Take your time.
Li Mingrui breathed a sigh of relief and was about to have a good sleep when his cell phone rang.
He answered a phone call.
Then, I heard an unharmonious voice from Hollywood.
………………………………
"Dear Mr. Jax, what do you think about the great success your film "Age of Heroes" has achieved in China, even surpassing veteran director Li Mingrui's "Bloodline 3"?"
""Bloodshed" is not on the same level as my movies... We have never wanted to compare with it. I will not compare the box office with any Chinese movie. After all, there is no sense of achievement if I win. After all, that is China, and this is Hollywood! My goal is Hollywood movies! I really don’t want you to confuse my movies with Chinese movies!”
"Then, in your mind, Chinese movies are incomparable? Do you think Chinese movies are rubbish?"
"I didn't say that, this is what you said... What I just want to say is that the movie box office in August can actually explain a lot of things. We in Hollywood have the right to rule after all. After all, this is a fact! Moreover, I am very disappointed with Chinese movies..."
