"Lu Binghua" is a story about the treasure island, there is no doubt about this.
Therefore, although Baodao's market is not large compared to the entire Great China region, it cannot be ignored.
Although Li Yi said that he doesn't care so much about the box office now, of course he would still be willing to do it if the box office could be higher.
Therefore, this time, after Fanhai Film and Television communicated with Baoyu Film and Television, the distribution company on Baodao, the other party strongly requested that pre-movie promotion activities including screenings, premieres, etc. be held in Baodao. Li Yi also No rejection.
In fact, this is what the title should mean.
After all, the story takes place on Treasure Island, and naturally audiences on Treasure Island will have a deeper sense of immersion in the film.
For this reason, Li Yi didn't think there was any problem.
And there is another point, whether it is screened or premiered in Baodao, it will definitely be regarded as the top priority for the Baodao film and television industry.
In terms of screenings, relevant media, film critics, etc. in Baodao will definitely take the initiative to cheer for this movie, because for people in Baodao’s entertainment industry, where the film and television industry has almost shrunk to the extreme, Li Yi’s movie, and the It’s still a treasure island story, which is so rare.
Other directors may not have enough influence to radiate to the entire Greater China region, but Li Yi's influence is enough.
Therefore, their favorable impression of Li Yi will naturally increase tremendously.
After the two parties concluded the relevant contract, Baodao's violent publicity also made Li Yi a little speechless.
Nothing else, because these are Baodao entertainment circles and media circles spontaneously and proactively cheering for this movie.
"Following the "Once Upon a Time in Hong Kong" series of films, Grand Slam director Director Li Yi has created the "Once Upon a Time in Treasure Island" series of films, "Lu Binghua". A heavy tear gas bomb is about to hit. Are you ready?"
"The first Chinese director, Li Yi's new work "Lu Binghua" shows the local style of Baodao and tells the story of the young genius of Baodao!" Qun
""Lu Binghua" has been scheduled to launch a special media screening in Baodao. Director Li Yi may find a new outlet for Baodao movies for Baodao filmmakers!"
"Director Li Yi's new film "Lu Binghua" has been completed. The film is a children's film from a critical realism perspective. Director Li Yi said: There are many stories in Treasure Island, or "Lu Binghua" is just the beginning!"
For a time, not only Baodao-related media reported on it, but many Baodao movie fans and netizens also expressed their expectations on the Internet.
"Director Li Yi has finally filmed our Treasure Island story. I hope he can point out a new path for the lifeless Treasure Island movie!"
"I'm really looking forward to it. The current local movies in Baodao are really far north. To watch the movies, you still have to watch a great talent like Director Li Yi!"
"There are so many stories about Treasure Island, but why do the filmmakers on Treasure Island fail to live up to their expectations at all? I hope Director Li Yi can teach them a good lesson!"
"I have always been a fan of Director Li. I always wondered why Director Gou didn't come to the island to make movies. Now I finally got my wish!" Qun
"Hong Kong Island story, Mainland story, Italian story, North American story... Now it's finally the turn of Treasure Island story. I'm looking forward to it. I will definitely watch the movie when it comes out!"
Speaking of which, Baodao movie fans are indeed quite depressed.
The land area of Treasure Island is not that small. It is a province of China after all, and it is larger than Hong Kong Island. However, Hong Kong Island is a much bigger place, but it can create a golden age of Hong Kong movies.
At its peak, it was even known as the Hollywood of the East. Although it has declined now, it was at least better off.
What about Kebao Island?
have what?
There are not many movies that can be released, and they can be traced back to a very ancient era. And the appearance of Li Yi can be said to have continued the glory of Hong Kong Island movies. Although the overall influence of Hong Kong Island movies is not as good as before, but Li Yi alone can make Hong Kong filmmakers hold their heads high.
Although Baodao has produced some good directors, most of them are literary directors. The key point is that, embarrassingly, Baodao stories produced by Baodao filmmakers can only have an audience in Baodao.
You know, baby
The island also speaks Mandarin, while Hong Kong Island still speaks Cantonese. It stands to reason that the spread of language in Baodao is much more convenient than that in Hong Kong, but the result is exactly the opposite.
But this time Li Yi came out and filmed an original Baodao story, which naturally made the Baodao audience feel proud.
At least, it’s not that the culture of Baodao is not good, it’s not that Baodao’s stories don’t have an audience, it’s that the director is not good.
As for Li Yi's movies, can they be recognized by audiences outside the treasure island?
It can be said that many people hardly have this concern. Are you kidding me?
Li Yi's movies are the kind of great director who can turn decay into magic and can make the public accept even foreign local stories. What's more, it's a story about a treasure island with the same roots, the same species and a narrow strip of water?
Baodao's film and television circles, media circles, and movie fans are so enthusiastic, so Li Yi naturally reciprocates the favor.
For the theme song of the same name in the movie "Lu Binghua", Li Yi also asked a local singer from Baodao to sing it.
Similarly, for Hong Kong and mainland movie fans, Li Yi's new film, although it tells the story of Treasure Island, has also attracted much attention.
For mainland movie fans, where is the story that Li Yi did not film?
Anyway, everyone knows that the main audience of Li Yi's movies has always been them.
For movie fans from Hong Kong Island, it's even simpler. That's the Light of Hong Kong Island, Li Yi's movie, and Treasure Island Story.
But many people are still confused about the specific story of "Lu Binghua", a movie named after a flower.
On the contrary, "Lu Binghua", a keyword that is usually relatively unpopular, has become much more popular during this period.
But the more they look at it, the more confused many people become, because flowers like lupine are actually quite unfamiliar to most people.
If you want to talk about roses, lilacs, roses, plum blossoms, etc., you may have heard of them more or less, but lupine flowers are a bit confusing.
Of course, some people like it and some don't.
Although many people are looking forward to Li Yi's new film, there are also people who are dismissive of it.
There are actually not many film directors who are active in Baodao Film today, and most of them came to the north. Of course, there are also some who stubbornly stay in the mainland.
Ke Bai is one of them. He is often called the last defender of Baodao movies by Baodao local media.
Ke Bai has always only filmed local stories on Baodao, which is a hot topic among Baodao movie fans and industry insiders. However, it is a pity that most of his movies can only be limited to Baodao.
Of course, Ke Bai was not saying that he was unconvinced with Li Yi's performance, but he had always thought that it would be a bit ridiculous for a director like Li Yi to suddenly come to Baodao to make a movie about Baodao's local stories.
However, Li Yi's name and influence are too great. In addition, this time, it can be said that not only Baodao movie fans, film critics, and filmmakers welcome Li Yi's new movie, but also Baodao authorities. There is no way to say that he is not welcome, after all, Li Yi's influence is there.
Therefore, before seeing the finished movie, even if Ke Bai was unhappy with Li Yi filming a treasure island story, he would have made all the treasure island people have a collective high C.
