Chapter 910: Missing family members more during every festive season
Tear-Jerking Director Chapter 910: I miss my loved ones even more during the festive season
"Thieves of Time" and "Sister Peach" have been released in theaters, but their influence can be said to be quite far-reaching.
The main thing is that these two films are both literary films, but they have achieved very good results.
Some people may say that Li Yi's previous literary films had better box office results.
But don’t forget, Li Yi’s earlier literary films were almost all award-winning films. With the aura of awards and the blessing of awards, if they are such big hits, they cannot be regarded as regular films.
However, although "Thieves of Time" and "Sister Peach" also won awards, everyone knows that the gold content of those awards is really average, and they did not win a single grand prize in the main competition unit.
As a result, it still achieved such good box office results, which naturally makes people think more about it.
There is a big difference in the way literary films and commercial films operate.
Commercial films usually involve large investments and high risks, and of course the return rate is higher. However, the problem is that most of today's commercial films usually have a really long production cycle.
On the contrary, although the investment in literary and artistic films is small and the box office is not as good as commercial films, the production cycle of literary and artistic films, if the director is reliable, is usually much faster than that of commercial films.
And the key is, small investment means the risk is also small.
Unlike commercial blockbusters, the investment is getting higher and higher, the production cycle is getting longer and longer, and the risks are getting bigger and bigger.
Investments can easily range from several hundred million to more than one billion, and the threshold is very high.
As for the filmmakers on Hong Kong Island, to be honest, there are only a few who are really doing well, and most of them are far inferior to those in the golden age of Hong Kong Island movies.
Because it is difficult for many local films in Hong Kong to recoup their costs, coupled with market limitations, the situation is getting worse.
But the two movies in the Once Upon a Time in Hong Kong series can be regarded as setting a good example for them.
Both movies are feature films, and both are the most traditional Hong Kong literary and artistic films. With the support of the 100-Star Project, the cost of such movies will not be too high. If they can reach the level of "The Thief of Time" or "Sister Peach"
To the extent that Hong Kong Island can recover its capital, it can even make a huge profit.
The box office performance of "Thieves of Time" and "Sister Peach" in the Mainland is actually not too surprising, but the box office performance in Hong Kong Island is really surprising.
After all, many commercial blockbusters perform very well in the mainland, but they are still not adapted to the local environment in Hong Kong, and the box office is often very low.
Therefore, with the recent popularity of these two films, many Hong Kong Island filmmakers have been surprised to find that literary and artistic films, especially those with Hong Kong Island backgrounds, have good potential in Hong Kong Island.
However, neither Li Yi nor Mu Qing paid attention to these.
After the movie was released, the couple had some free time, but this time they didn't go anywhere and were busy preparing to build a trumpet.
After all, Mu Qing is not young, and it is impossible for Mu Qing not to know about Xu Nannan's affairs, so she is anxious.
What should Li Yineng do?
Naturally, I can only do my best.
The two people's efforts were not in vain. When the new year came, Mu Qing finally became pregnant, and then Li Yi was kicked out by his wife.
Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the so-called thirty is like a wolf and forty is like a tiger. There are only exhausted cows and no damaged fields, right?
Especially for a woman who is eager to have a child, she understands everything!
Being idle is also idle, and Li Yi just wanted to find something to do to pass the time!
Arriving at the company, Lou Jianjun couldn't help but be happy when he saw Li Yi: "Hey, what brought you here, Director Li?"
Lou Jianjun naturally has resentment towards Li Yi. Although Li Yi delegated power to him and made him have great power, in one year, unless there is a movie to be released, it is almost impossible to see Li Yi in the company.
to him.
Every time Lou Jianjun wanted to ask Li Yi to sign, he had to send someone to deliver it to Li Yi's home.
"What are you talking about? If I had to sit in the office every day to work, you would probably be even more anxious." Li Yi said angrily.
The two have worked together for many years, and they know each other well. Li Yi did not treat Lou Jianjun badly. The company's equity incentive gave Lou Jianjun a full 6 points.
"You don't look very good. What's wrong?" After sitting down, Lou Jianjun looked at Li Yi and asked involuntarily.
"Nothing. By the way, is there anything in the company that I need to handle personally recently?" Li Yi asked.
"Haha, that's a lot. Are you free? Do you really plan to come to work?" Lou Jianjun said with a smile.
"I can rest assured that you are here for management matters. I am talking about other things." Li Yi shook his head.
"When you say that, it's true. No, those piles are all invitations. I haven't had time to send them to you yet. If you really want to find something to do, just take the time to pick one and look at it."
Jian Jun smiled and pointed at the stack of invitations on Li Yi's desk.
Normally Li Yi would hardly pay attention to this stuff, but he couldn't stand it because he was the number one Chinese speaker, so even if he didn't go, various social dinners and various invitations would still be sent.
"Okay!" Li Yi picked up the invitation and nodded.
"Then you watch first. I'm going back first. If you have anything to do, call me." Lou Jianjun said without further disturbing Li Yi.
Li Yi nodded. After Lou Jianjun left, Li Yi started to pick up the invitation letter.
He looked at each one one by one, but he kept shaking his head. The main reason was that these invitations were invitations such as charity dinners. To put it bluntly, they came in the autumn wind.
Li Yi is really too lazy to turn over the brand.
There are also some invitations to domestic film festivals and symposiums, but most of them don't believe that Li Yi will come.
After Li Yi looked at a few pictures, he took pictures of the rest on the table without bothering to look at them again.
Li Yi turned on the computer and browsed the news.
However, one of the hot topics, or an advertising soft article, actually climbed to the top ten hot topics. The reason why Li Yi noticed it was because this topic had something to do with Li Yi, or it had something to do with "Thieves of Time" and "Peach".
"Sister", especially the latter has a great relationship.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The title of the topic is: "September 9, Double Ninth Festival, have you reunited with your family?"
“The Thieves of Time and Sister Peach have been released, and the movies can’t help but remind people of our parents and elders at home.
The Double Ninth Festival is coming soon. Do we still remember this forgotten festival?
Did you know that September 9th is the Double Ninth Festival, also known as "Old Man's Day"?
Being a stranger in a foreign land, I miss my family even more during festive seasons.
You are alone in a foreign land. How long has it been since you went home to see your parents?
Mom and dad, they have always taken care of us when we grew up
Whether they are kind or harsh, whether they are nagging or criticizing, it is all because they are full of love for us!
As time goes by, have you discovered that the years have ruthlessly dyed their black hair white, and time has secretly snatched away their youth. In their best years, they taught you how to use spoons, use tachyons, eat, and teach you how to dress.
Clothes, tie shoelaces, fasten buttons, teach you to wash your hands, wash your face, comb your hair, take you to and from school, accompany you to do homework and play...
For many years, without asking for anything in return, they watched you jump out of the house, go to a foreign country, go to college, get married, have children, and settle down.
Each step gets longer and bigger, and each step goes farther and farther. For the "empty nest" elderly people who "have a light when they enter and a lock when they go out", without companionship, it is easy to feel lost and emotionally lonely.
Just like the elderly people in the nursing home in "Sister Tao", in their hearts, chatting with their children is the most fragrant "chicken soup for the soul", and being with their children, even nagging, is the best spiritual comfort.
Perhaps you were too shy to express your feelings and missed decades of time in the blink of an eye. At this moment, whether you are with your parents or separated from them, on this Double Ninth Festival, in addition to thoughts and blessings, taking advantage of the festival to feel homesick, this year
The Double Ninth Festival coincides with the National Day and it’s a holiday. Let’s drive the Thunder GH and take your family with you and go home to spend time with your parents!
Climb high, enjoy autumn chrysanthemums, eat Double Ninth Festival cakes...
The warmest thing I can think of is to drive home often and accompany you as we grow older together!"
