Homogenization, movies of the same type will inevitably affect each other, this is inevitable.
If Zhao Qingyan's movie is released before Li Yi's movie, there will naturally be nothing to say.
It can be said that if it is released at the same time or later, judging from the good reputation of Li Yi's previous movies, it is obvious that his "Hachi" will definitely follow the route of reputation.<
/p>
If it's not a movie of the same type, then that's fine. But it can be said that it's exactly the same type of movie. So if "Hachi" is released first and gets a good reputation, it will definitely be nothing compared to other pet movies that will be released later.
Good thing.
Of course, all is said and done, and Li Yi's fame and influence are getting bigger and bigger, reaching a level that is enough to scare the times.
On the contrary, Li Yi and the others, including Fang Dongbai, Mu Nanxing, and Zhuo Yixiong, are also very afraid of Zhao Qingyan, or, to be more precise, they are even more afraid of the light and shadow of the times behind Zhao Qingyan. "Teacher Liang, Little Black Bean and Big Black Bean, I will leave it to you during this period of time to cultivate their relationship. If you have any questions, you can go directly to the person in charge of the Pet Shop." Li Yi said to Liang Dong with a smile. Liang Dong teased the two dogs and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."
Li Yi didn't know that Liang Dong had already thought about it and took advantage of the two dogs to ask his ex-wife Liu Ran for help. After all, she was the one with rich experience in raising pets.
The knot in his heart was resolved, and Liang Dong also had the idea to reconcile with his ex-wife.
Of course, he would not tell Li Yi or the others about this kind of thing.
The other side.
After Zhao Qingyan left, he came to Times Light and Shadow.
"Li Yi agreed?" Ou Zhenqun, the vice president of Times Lighting, asked.
Zhao Qingyan shook his head and said: "I didn't agree, but I didn't refuse either. But, Mr. Ou, is it really necessary to do this?"
Ou Zhenqun glanced at Zhao Qingyan and said: "If he was making other types of movies, there would be no need, but for movies of the same type, competition is absolutely unavoidable!"
"Pet movies are not that easy to make. Over the years, there have been many pet movies in China, but how many of them are big hits? Li Yi has only made a few movies. Is it necessary to be so cautious?" Zhao
Qingyan, on the other hand, doesn't take it seriously.
In fact, it can be said that there is nothing wrong with Zhao Qingyan’s thinking.
Pet movies, movies with this theme, have never been mainstream. There have been many movies with this theme in China, but for Zhao Qingyan, none of them can be successful. Most of them are small-scale movies.

As for other movies, Zhao Qingyan may still be afraid of them, but when it comes to pet movies, Zhao Qingyan said bluntly that among so many directors in China, he is not necessarily afraid of anyone.
"It's okay to be careful. You don't want your reputation as the best director of pet movies to be taken away by Li Yi, right?" Ou Zhenqun said with a smile.
He is different from Zhao Qingyan. Zhao Qingyan is a director and has always been absolutely famous in the pet movie genre, so it makes sense for him not to take Li Yita seriously.
But Ou Zhenqun can't be like Zhao Qingyan. If he can, he will naturally eliminate all possible threats. Even if he can't, he will still find ways to weaken the opponent's strength for competitors who may pose a threat.

"By the way, how's the progress on your side?" Ou Zhenqun asked again.
"It's going pretty well. It shouldn't be a problem to release it on New Year's Day. What's wrong?" Zhao Qingyan asked with some confusion.
"It's July now, and there are nearly five months before New Year's Day. With Li Yi's filming speed, there is a high probability that the film will be completed before New Year's Day. Director Zhao, can you speed up the progress?" Ou Zhenqun said.
"Speed up the progress? Do you mean to raise the file?" Zhao Qingyan frowned.
He doesn't like Ou Zhenqun's attitude of not believing in him. It's clear that Ou Zhenqun doesn't want his movie to collide with Li Yi.
But Zhao Qingyan is also very confident in himself, and he even wants to have a head-on confrontation with Li Yi.
In pet movies, he has never been afraid of anyone.
The ones who really fear Li Yi are Times Light and Shadow and Ou Zhenqun.
"Yes, if a homogeneous movie is released first, it always has an advantage, right?" Ou Zhenqun said.
"It's difficult to speed up the progress. You also know that pet movies are different from other movies." Zhao Qingyan shook his head and said.
"Then we can only find ways to delay the other party's progress. By the way, have your two dogs signed a contract with them?" Ou Zhenqun suddenly asked.
Zhao Qingyan nodded, but then frowned and said, "Are you trying to...make a fuss about the dog to delay the other party's progress?"
Ou Zhenqun smiled and said: "Is there any problem?"
Zhao Qingyan shook his head and said: "No, this will damage the credibility of Chongpai Company. I can't agree to it."
Ou Zhenqun said calmly: "Actors can get sick, and so can pets. This is a force majeure factor. How can it affect the credibility of Pet Company?"
Zhao Qingyan frowned and said: "Mr. Ou, are you too afraid of this Li Yi? I admit that his previous films were good, but when it comes to pet movies, don't you have confidence in me?" Ou Zhenqun said unhurriedly: "It's not that I don't have confidence in you, Director Zhao, but if we can avoid homogeneous competition, it's better to avoid it. Moreover, it's just a sick pet that delays the other party's progress, and it's not
What dirty tricks, Director Zhao can’t even figure this out, can he?”
Zhao Qingyan was silent for a long time, and finally nodded.
"By the way, Director Zhao, it shouldn't be difficult to make a dog sick, right?" Ou Zhenqun asked again.
Zhao Qingyan said expressionlessly: "It's not difficult, there are pet trainers from the company here!"
"That's good!" Ou Zhenqun smiled.
Li Yi and the others naturally didn't know that Fang Dongbai's original concerns had actually come true.
After the male protagonist and the dog protagonist were decided on "Hachiko", the preparation progress immediately accelerated a lot.
The remaining characters are relatively easy to find because they are all supporting roles with not many roles.
As for Liang Dong, after bringing the two black beans back, he immediately called his ex-wife Liu Ran.
"I have accepted a role as a dog actor, and I have to cultivate relationships with dogs recently, but I am not that experienced in raising pets. Can you help me for a while?" Liang Dong said with some anxiety.
"Okay!" Liu Ran on the other end of the phone pondered for a moment and said.
"Then...I'm sorry to trouble you." Liang Dong couldn't help but smile.
"What's the trouble? You know I like pets the most. You've really changed now. I'm very happy!" Liu Ran said.
Naturally, Li Yi didn't know that Liang Dong's knot was untied before the filming of the movie started, and he was still thinking of being a dog and wanted to renew his relationship with his ex-wife.
After being reminded by Zhao Qingyan and Zhuo Yixiong, he had some ideas.
