"It's a pleasure to work with you, Minister Li. I believe the ratings of this drama will not be bad."
Lu Fang said with a smile: "At the beginning of filming, Mu Bai was very interested in this drama. He even went to the crew to watch the filming scene and gave a lot of guidance. He believed that this drama could be successful."
Lu Fang knew that two TV stations had won the first broadcast rights of "Wulin Gaiden", but he was still very worried.
He could only move Chen Mubai out to let the other party feel at ease.
Chen Mubai's name now represents quality, and the public is still very optimistic about it.
Lu Fang did not lie to them, Chen Mubai really believed that "Wulin Gaiden" would definitely succeed.
"Since we chose to buy it, we naturally have confidence in it." Minister Li smiled.
"It will be broadcast on October 7th, and we will use it for one month to promote it, and then we will promote it offline and online together!"
"no problem."
The reason why I chose the October issue is because it is the National Day holiday and everyone will go out to play. The holiday just took place on the 1st, so there are many people traveling outside and few people watching TV, which is not conducive to the ratings of the first broadcast.
The holiday ends on the 7th, and those who have gone out to play should come back. After playing for a few days, you will be tired, and the last two days may be used to rest at home. Then the chance of watching TV will be higher, and the relative ratings may be higher.
After Lu Fang and the two TV stations finalized the release date of "Wulin Gaiden", they will start promoting it.
At that time, the TV station will announce the release time of the TV series, and there will also be relevant news on the Internet. "Wulin Gaiden" is a work produced by Mubai Entertainment that took one year to shoot. The production cycle is very long, and it has already attracted much attention.
This is also the only TV series produced by Mubai Entertainment that took such a long time to produce. Previous ones were completed in a few months or half a year, but this one took a year.
This makes many netizens think that this drama may surprise people. The production cycle is so long, it must be because of the high quality of the filming and the slow work and meticulous work!
The worse the film, the faster it can be shot. After all, quality is not required.
...
“A pleasure to work with.”
“A pleasure to work with.”
After Li Feng and Fu Chunlai signed the contract, they shook hands to express their friendship.
Fu Chunlai agreed to merge the company into Mubai Entertainment, and he will still lead the team to continue working hard.
Fu Chunlai continued to manage the team as usual, no difference.
It's just that he is no longer the person with the biggest say. He will need to ask Li Feng's opinion when doing things in the future, and he will no longer be able to speak out as before.
Li Feng graciously agreed to his request. There will be no changes in personnel, but there will be an inspection period, and new personnel will come in and will work with them.
"Then why should we change our name?" Fu Chunlai asked.
Now that the company's legal person has changed, their company can no longer use the previous name. Instead, it will be merged into Mubai Entertainment, so it naturally needs to be renamed.
"No need at the moment, just wait for my notification."
Li Feng said: "Now there is a task for you. The company will also send some people to cooperate with you. If you have any requests, please ask. It must be completed by next summer."
"What mission?" Fu Chunlai said in a solemn tone.
This is the first task after their company was acquired, and it must be completed very neatly to give Li Feng a good impression.
This can also be regarded as a test for them by the company, and they must be completed very beautifully!
"We are going to make an animated movie, and we will leave the early modeling to you. When the task is almost in progress, we will get the script and start production."
Li Feng took out a document with various character models on it, which were very cute.
"This is......"
Fu Chunlai's pupils contracted. He didn't expect the task to come so quickly. Their dream was to make animations. The company had just been acquired and they already had something to do.
"The task of this movie is huge. If you need any help, please let me know. You will be responsible for this now." Li Feng patted Fu Chunlai on the shoulder.
He smiled and said: "Our company's ideal is to export Chinese culture to the world. From a certain perspective, we have a common goal and we can work together."
"Actually, this animation movie is also an attempt for us. We hope it can be successful and let more people pay attention to this industry."
"As a family, I am not afraid to tell you that the company's next stage film and television works will use a lot of special effects. Now we are preparing for the future in advance, so I acquired your company. Your works are doing very well."
Li Feng did check out many of the special effects shots that Starlight Animation was responsible for and some of the animation characters and backgrounds produced for the game. After reviewing several companies that were about to go bankrupt, he chose Starlight.
The level is good, but it lacks large capital injection.
After all, animation is still a loss-making industry in China, so naturally no funds are willing to be injected into this industry.
Perhaps, one day when we see the rise of the animation industry, a large amount of capital will pay attention to this market, which will make the development of animation a blowout.
"In other words, we will be responsible for the special effects in the future?" Fu Chunlai was surprised.
"Yes, so your department is very important. If there are people who do not meet our requirements, we will not show mercy. We hope that everyone can work together instead of leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade."
Li Feng told Fu Chunlai seriously, just to put pressure on him and let him know the seriousness of the matter.
Although he has not destroyed Xingguang's original personnel structure now, if someone is unqualified in the future development, he will still be eliminated. Li Feng is giving Fu Chunlai eye drops in advance.
"I know, we will do the modeling right away!" Fu Chunlai assured.
"I will not interfere with your management. You will still manage as usual, as long as you complete the task."
Although Li Feng is now Fu Chunlai's boss, he is not a professional after all, so he naturally has no way of starting with technology.
Therefore, it is best not to get involved in management, otherwise it will only lead to chaos. He only wants the final result, and the process is not important.
Fu Chunlai was quite excited. He thought that even if Mubai Entertainment acquired them, they would not be able to produce animations so soon. Unexpectedly, they had already started to work on related matters.
Once animation comes out, it may really attract the attention of the market!
In the past, they were short of funds, but now they are not. And according to Li Feng, they already have a detailed script. As long as the preliminary preparations are completed, the production of the animated film will begin immediately!
Fu Chunlai felt that he was getting closer and closer to his dream, almost within reach, all he had to do was work hard.
He vaguely felt that perhaps selling the company to Mubai Entertainment was the most correct decision he made!
After Li Feng left, he excitedly told everyone the news, and everyone was very happy.
They are finally going to produce an anime, and it is an anime movie that can be shown in theaters, which is not comparable to the small orders they usually receive!
Everyone feels that maybe joining Mubai Entertainment is the right choice?
The guys are gearing up and full of confidence. They want to complete the tasks assigned to them by Li Feng as soon as possible, and then they can get the script and officially start the production of the animated movie.
...
Chen Mubai's new film press conference was held as scheduled.
Last time, he publicly responded to Starway Entertainment. Everyone knew that he was preparing for a new movie, but they didn't expect it to happen so soon.
It's only been a few days and the press conference for the new film has already been held.
Not much time has passed since the filming of "Infernal Affairs". Chen Mubai's workload is indeed a bit strenuous, and he feels a bit like a workaholic.
Reporter: "Director Chen Mubai, not long after the last movie, you have to make a new movie, and it needs to be completed within 3 months. Is it too hasty?"
Chen Mubai: "No, actually the previous series was very easy to shoot. The actors' acting skills were very good and we shot it very fast. There were no big scenes or dangerous actions."
"Is this time you choose to make a commercial film to prove yourself?"
"Yes, you all know the grudge between me and Xingcheng. I just want to tell them that I can do it. I will be happy if I slap them in the face." Chen Mubai made no secret of his purpose.
"..."
Although the reporters were speechless, they still recorded these words, which will definitely arouse heated discussions among netizens.
“Should commercial films be made faster than artistic films?”
"No, it depends on the specific situation. Commercial films pay more attention to the rhythm of the scene and plot. There is a big difference between the two. One is to tell the story carefully to others and let them understand the truth, while the other is to tell the story well that others like.
Stories, literary and artistic films pay more attention to self-narration, while commercial films focus on the feelings of others."
To a certain extent, literary films are about making what you want to make for the audience to see, which can be regarded as a self-pleasure type.
Commercial films need to make people enjoy watching them, no matter the plot or rhythm. If the story of a commercial film is made into a literary film, it will be so depressing and boring that no one will pay for it.
Why do people like to watch foreign blockbusters?
Because it’s cool!
The audience types of the two movies are different. Most of the people who are at least willing to go to the cinema to watch the movie want to relax and have a good time.
This is why most of the theaters are commercial films, which are not chosen by capital but by the audience.
"I always feel that the shooting time is not enough. Is it faster and easier to shoot a commercial comedy?"
"No, it's just that the rhythm of commercial films will be stronger, there will be less emphasis on rationality, and the filming will not be so entangled. The biggest fear when making a comedy is that you think it is funny, but in the eyes of others it is not funny at all, which is embarrassing."
"..."
...
"What Chen Mubai said makes sense!"
"Haha, it's true that everyone's point of laughter is different. I think it's funny, but you don't think it's funny. That's quite embarrassing."
"Chen Mubai has a deep understanding of comedy. I think he should be able to make funny stories."
"So this drama is no longer around. There is no heroine and three men are traveling in Thailand?"
"I really want to see what Chen Mubai's pure commercial comedy will look like. I'm really looking forward to it!"
""囧"? Just hearing the name, I feel it has a comedy atmosphere."
"I finished shooting a movie in 3 months, and I still have to do post-production. The time is so tight, and I feel like there is a high chance of making bad money. Even the name is so random..."
"I think so too. The name of this movie is very low, and it can't be compared with the previous ones. Whether it's "Buried Alive" or "Infernal Affairs", it really has a charm!"
"You guys are really enough. You can associate so much with one name. In the final analysis, it still depends on the quality of the movie. Anyway, I believe in Chen Mubai. I don't think he will make bad movies. Besides, I am willing to go to even a bad movie.
Look, he has made so many outstanding films, and it is normal for him to perform abnormally occasionally. He is better than those directors who dare not step out of their comfort zone!"
"Yes, some directors are famous for their costume films, and they keep making costume films without daring to try new themes. Chen Mubai has made movies with several themes, and he has really been striving for change. I admire this kind of courage.
