Chapter 543 Shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival!
Starway Entertainment.
"'Buried Alive' has been withdrawn."
"Oh, really?" Someone sounded a little surprised, but not surprised.
"They have not scheduled the movie, and the online public opinion of this movie is not good. In addition, it is approaching the summer release, and there are many competitors. It is normal to withdraw it. It is estimated that it will be moved to September and then released after the summer holiday." A shareholder
said.
He didn't know what was happening on the Internet, and he didn't know that Mubai Entertainment's withdrawal was not to re-release it at a different schedule, but to attend a film festival. So when he heard the shareholders say that "Buried Alive" was withdrawn, he took it as a matter of course.
answer.
Although the competition in the summer season is fierce and there are many blockbusters, many producers are also eyeing this market, so there are also many small and medium-sized films invested in it, and the number of films is also a relatively large period of the year.
Therefore, even if there are more films except blockbusters that are divided into the film schedule, the film schedule will be squeezed out. The total number of films in the film schedule will remain unchanged. If the number of films is greater, the number of films allocated to each movie will naturally be less.
.
"No, they have withdrawn to participate in the film festival." The shareholder denied.
"Huh? Participate in a film festival?" The shareholder who had previously analyzed the situation as fierce as a tiger suddenly felt a little embarrassed. This guess was indeed a bit off.
However, he analyzed based on experience, but Mubai Entertainment did not follow his ideas.
The rest of the shareholders were also surprised. They had not received the news yet. They just received the notice of the meeting and came.
Many people agreed with the shareholder's analysis at the beginning. After all, if the documents were to be withdrawn, only that explanation would make the most sense.
So later when I heard that Mubai Entertainment went to participate in the film festival, everyone was also surprised by the performance. I didn’t expect the span to be so big!
"What's going on?" someone asked.
The general manager said: "I don't know. Mubai Entertainment just issued a notice saying that the movie has been withdrawn and will be participating in the Venice Film Festival."
"Venice?" someone exclaimed: "Are they out of their minds?"
"Isn't it? Going to the Venice Film Festival, isn't this an April Fool's joke?"
"I can understand if you want to go to some Pheasant Film Festival, but what's the point of going to Venice? You can't buy awards..." someone joked.
In everyone's opinion, it is normal for a movie to be gilded with some awards. That's why there are so many pheasant awards. In fact, they are useless and they are just to fool movie fans.
There is no point in going to a famous film festival like Venice.
Moreover, you may not be able to pass the screening!
After the general manager waited for everyone's laughter to subside, he said: "It is precisely because they suddenly made this decision that I will hold a meeting for everyone to analyze the situation."
Everyone is basically unfavorable. No matter how "Buried Alive" is, no one believes that Chen Mubai can win an award at the Venice Film Festival. This is not just about quality, but it has to be very good, and there are many things to consider.
Other elements!
In the end, everyone also discussed a countermeasure and continued the behavior of praising and killing.
Isn’t Mubai Entertainment going to participate in the Venice Film Festival?
It is obviously impossible to win the award, but if they do, they can continue to fan the flames and public opinion on the Internet, and praise Mubai Entertainment and "Buried Alive". When Chen Mubai comes back after his "failure" at the film festival, everyone will definitely complain.
After all, Xing and others have been boasting about "Buried Alive" and Chen Mubai on the Internet. Once Chen Mubai gets nothing, he will definitely be ridiculed.
...
Jiaxing Economy.
Wu Tian also told everyone about this, and everyone's reaction was similar to that of Starway Entertainment.
"Our strategy can be considered successful. Chen Mubai was so sick that he rushed to the doctor." Wu Tian said with a smile.
"Indeed, we will intensify efforts to blackmail them online and divert netizens' attention from the withdrawal to the film festival as soon as possible."
Some people are still discussing the reasons for the withdrawal of "Buried Alive". Coupled with gossip, Liu Da is still criticized by many people on the Internet. As long as he successfully diverts the attention of netizens, this matter will be revealed.
People will not hold on to one thing all the time, but rather eat fresh melons.
Huiying Entertainment.
Qin Li and Yingna burst into laughter when they learned that Chen Mubai was going to attend the Venice Film Festival.
This is too much, and the span of professions is too great.
The difficulty of winning this award is no less than that of them winning the Grammy Award. This is also the most famous music award in the world. The singers who can win the award are all world-famous superstars!
"Chen Mubai is inflated, or has he lost his mind because of this incident and actually wants to make a comeback at the Venice Film Festival?" Qin Li sneered.
He knew that Chen Mubai suddenly withdrew from theaters to participate in film festivals, and it must be because of the movie. He definitely wanted his movie to be successful, so he chose this method to gain attention and popularity.
But in his opinion, this decision was too stupid. "Buried Alive" would not be able to gain anything at the Venice Film Festival. Instead, it would put Chen Mubai himself in a dilemma because of this move.
Qin Li's idea is what Starway Entertainment did. They just wanted Chen Mubai to fall into this kind of predicament, so they chose to praise and kill him.
After all, everyone had high expectations on Chen Mubai, and then Chen Mubai disappointed everyone, so naturally some netizens scolded him.
"Who knows, maybe Chen Mubai really thinks he can win the award!" Yingna also covered her mouth and laughed wildly.
You should not show your teeth when you smile, especially when you laugh wildly, and you should maintain a dignified grooming. Inna manages her own image.
"Okay, I'm going to tell Mr. Ding this good news, and we can make another effort to deal with Chen Mubai." After Qin Li sneered, he remembered what happened to deal with Chen Mubai.
"Go ahead and tell me the good news when the time comes!" Yingna said with a cheerful smile.
She and Chen Mubai were the original reasons for the conflict, which later spread to Qin Li and Huiying Entertainment.
Originally, she had no hope of revenge. After being slapped in the face several times by Chen Mubai, she had lost her confidence in revenge. But now that she has a good chance, how could she give up?
In fact, she was already very happy when Chen Mubai was blocked by the Sixth Congress. After all, she was happy to see Chen Mubai deflated.
She has no ability to retaliate, but her enemy is in trouble. This is something she is happy to see. Who doesn't like beating up a drowned dog?
Shen Meng and other people who had had a break with Chen Mubai were all looking at Chen Mubai struggling to his death like a trapped animal.
...
The news spread very quickly, and everyone's countermeasures followed suit.
There are currently two forces on the Internet. One is to support Chen Mubai. Everyone thinks that Chen Mubai can win the award, and they are praising Chen Mubai. They are looking forward to "Buried Alive" being a blockbuster at the film festival!
The other side is looking down on and insulting Chen Mubai. Everyone thinks that Chen Mubai is just doing a gimmick for the movie. In the final analysis, it is just a hype.
In fact, both of these forces have a large number of trolls. However, these two forces also accuse each other of being trolls...
Ordinary netizens do not have such a strong tendency. They are more rational and do not think that Chen Mubai can win the award. However, it would be a surprise if he does win. Many people who support Chen Mubai and Mubai Entertainment encourage them.
Because Starway Entertainment and Huiying Entertainment belong to two different forces but chose to do the same thing. They also think that the other part is Mubai Entertainment's trolls, so everyone's firepower is quite fierce.
It has to be said that this is an extremely rare situation.
As the party concerned, Mubai Entertainment did not end up, but his two opponents ended up fighting, which is also funny.
Due to their ferocious firepower, the impact of this incident has rapidly expanded, and it has become a hot event in recent times, and it is listed on hot searches every day.
Major media outlets also wrote about "Buried Alive"'s participation in the Venice Film Festival, describing the incident in detail, and generally there were more negative voices.
After all, this is the most rational view and the view that is most consistent with the public.
Following this announcement from Mubai Entertainment, the number of replies quickly exceeded hundreds of thousands of messages, and even approached one million!
Everyone is very concerned about Mubai Entertainment's participation in the Venice Film Festival. After all, no award-winning works have appeared for a long time. Although there are many works participating in the competition, everyone does not know because they have not won awards and they are all literary films.
Although "Buried Alive" is not a literary and artistic film, it is much more famous than those literary and artistic films. It was withdrawn on the eve of its release to participate in the Venice Film Festival, causing quite a stir.
No matter what the reasons are, at least this is an overseas competition, and everyone still hopes that Hua Xia's work can win the award. Even if they don't think "Buried Alive" can win the award, they will at least say a few words of blessing.
About ten days have passed since the topic became popular, and the popularity has dropped a lot. This is the case in the Internet age, where information emerges in an endless stream. After a while, no matter how popular something is, not so many people pay attention to it.
Soon another news from Mubai Entertainment made the topic heated up again.
...
"Mubai, let me tell you good news!" Chen Mubai suddenly received a call from Luo Fan, and he had a vague premonition of what Luo Fan would say.
"Your movie "Buried Alive" was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival!"
Even though Chen Mubai had a premonition in his heart, when Luo Fan's words were truly spoken, Chen Mubai's heart was still replaced by ecstasy!
This represents recognition that his efforts have not been in vain, and it is also the first time that he has been recognized as a finalist in such an international mainstream film festival!
In his previous life, although he was a first-line star, he only acted in some works in China and was well-known, but he did not compete for awards in the three major film festivals. This is the first time!
Therefore, this was of great significance to him, and he was shocked by the news.
"Congratulations!" Luo Fan congratulated.
He was really surprised. He didn't expect Chen Mubai's movie to be shortlisted!
This is due to the excellent quality of the movie itself and has nothing to do with him. Luo Fan is still very clear about this.
In any case, being shortlisted is an affirmation of the movie itself. No matter what, Chen Mubai's move is not a loss, and overtaking in a corner is already half successful!
"Thank you, Brother Luo." After Chen Mubai's mind went blank, he responded and thanked him: "I was shocked by the news just now. I was a little distracted. I'm sorry."
"I understand." Luo Fan smiled kindly and said, "Don't say it's you. This is always the case when I receive the news. I will tell you the good news immediately."
"You are still so young, and your first film was shortlisted for three major film festivals. You have a bright future!" Luo Fan sighed.
"Okay, I won't disturb you anymore. You can take this news to the company to report the good news." Luo Fan said.
"Thank you, Brother Luo. Next time you have time to come to the mainland, you must come to my place and give me a chance to be a host." Chen Mubai said with a smile.
"No problem, just because of your news, I should also go and feel happy. You can't escape from this meal!" Luo Fan's hearty voice came.
"By the way, the film festival sent me a certificate. I'll mail it to you. It will arrive soon."
"Okay, thank you Brother Luo."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Mubai went to the company and asked Lu Fang to convene a meeting with staff on the way. He told Lu Fang about this in advance.
Lu Fang's breathing, which was originally steady, froze when he heard the news. He was obviously shocked.
