China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 194 "Mekong"

Chen Jingxing frowned and asked, "My second uncle is still trading stocks?"

Teacher Yang tsk on the other end of the phone: "Since your cousin started to make trouble, he took out the money from the stock market, but recently he said that the stock market is soaring crazy. I don't know where I squeezed out 100,000 yuan and started buying stocks again.

I came to me the day before yesterday to brag, saying that I was buying Mengge stocks. The Tianrun, who is related to your company, said that the principal has doubled now, and asked me to tell you that your company will be listed as soon as possible so that he can buy his nephew's stock."

Chen Jingxing rolled his eyes: "Let him wait."

Since he knew that his second uncle had invested 100,000 yuan in principal, he was relieved and did not intend to remind him to leave quickly. Anyway, 100,000 yuan will not hurt his vitality, so it would be good to ask him to give him a lesson. Otherwise, he would not be able to let go when something big happened in the future.

The prevention of stock market crashes can only be done but not said, so he can only remind relatives, friends and company employees. After all, he is not an ordinary person and is considered a public figure. If he promotes a stock market crash that is coming and the stock market crash really comes, the final result is that the stock market crash is caused by him.

Many investors in China are metaphysical stock trading. When gamblers lose in a hurry, they will naturally want to find a scapegoat. The whistleblower who is a stock market crash may not be grateful. People who retreat in time will be grateful to them. Those who lose all will not know what they will think. Maybe they want to bring them with them when they go to the rooftop.

"What's wrong with Xinxin? After talking for so long, why is there no following? Your father said he wants to hold his grandson!"

Teacher Yang is still very satisfied with this prospective daughter-in-law. She has met during the Chinese New Year and often makes video calls. In addition, she is also a successful career and is an executive of an Internet company. However, the old couple is a little puzzled by the two of them for a long time. They are not inconvenient to urge them to do this for the young people, but today they really can't help it.

"Xiao Chen, congratulations first. After 20 years in this film history, I finally returned to the hands of domestic movies. I know that you will definitely keep calling and it will not take up your time. You should stop now, right?"

"Okay, am I just idle? I will take it seriously. I'll hang up first. Someone called me. It's Mr. Qin from Guoying."

Qin Zhonghe didn't believe Chen Jingxing's truth, just thinking that this kid was polite: "What's so modest? Our country's film market is growing rapidly, domestic movie box office is increasing, and Hollywood movie box office is also increasing? I never thought that "This Boy's Avenger" could increase the box office record to 1.9 billion at once. Without you, I wouldn't think other movies could break the record set by him so quickly.

He followed up the entire shooting process of "Operation Mekong". Guo Fan's on-site scheduling ability and the design of the movie's storyboard script made him extremely satisfied, so Qin Zhonghe was very confident in the quality of the final film.

Teacher Yang chased after him: "Then are you not busy now? The "Source Code" has been screened? The records have been broken, and you don't need to run any road show. Isn't your "Georgetic" also in the post-production? You are not filming other animations and TV series. Didn't you appoint a president for DreamWorks? What are you busy with now?"

After the filming, the movie was post-production. The post-production of Operation Mekong was made by a special effects company under Guoying. I originally wanted to hand it over to Mo. After all, its technical strength is one of the best in domestic companies, and it was also displayed through "Signal" and "Source Code".

"Hey, Mr. Qin."

Qin Zhonghe was extremely satisfied with the box office results of "Source Code", which made him feel much more confident in "Operation Mekong". In addition to the large framework provided by Chen Jingxing, he also allowed him to see the potential of the Chinese film market.

For example, the Jungle was filmed in the Golden Triangle area. The scene where the first drug dealer was arrested was in Bangkok, and the second scene where the drug dealer was seduced was in a shopping mall in Kuala Lumpur.

Okay, let’s not talk about these, it’s a double happiness. Operation Mekong has just been completed. I’m going to hold a final banquet, which will be celebrated with the box office record of Source Code.”

However, neither Qin Zhonghe nor Chen Jingxing were willing to delay the Mekong River project. After all, it was a blockbuster with an investment of nearly 200 million yuan, and everyone hoped to recover funds as soon as possible.

"Aren't you busy all the time? You know here that I haven't had much rest since last year. Tang Xin's side has now reached a critical stage of development." Chen Jingxing also wanted the two to go further. Even if they didn't get married directly, they should move forward in this regard. However, both of them are workaholics and they really can't take time.

Chen Jingxing was a little surprised that Teacher Yang knew him well. Good guy, I don’t know what both teachers learned online, it was roadshow and post-production, and it was tracking the company’s dynamics in real time.

But Mo is busy with too many projects now. "Gravity" alone takes up all the schedule. In addition, the animation department is still producing three animation series at the same time. Even after several expansions, he still cannot withdraw his manpower and only does "Operation Mekong". If he has to hand over the special effects to Mo, he can only wait in line.

...

After 5 months, Guo Fan finally finished filming "Operation Mekong". This kind of action movie is very difficult to shoot, and it also involves a lot of explosive scenes. Moreover, the scene span of the movie is very large and requires shooting in several countries.

Chen Jingxing quickly modestly: "Even without me, this box office champion will soon be recaptured by our Chinese movies, and Hollywood movies will not be snatched away in the future. It will not be of such great significance."

Fortunately, the Mekong River's special effects requirements are not high. In fact, most of the explosions and action shots of this movie are real shots, and there are not many digital special effects. No matter which special effects company you hand it over to, it will not affect the quality of the special effects. The level of the large domestic special effects companies is not low. As long as you give enough money, have enough time and strict requirements, there will generally be no 50 cents of special effects.

According to the post-production plan, the construction will definitely be completed by October at the latest. Chen Jingxing gave his suggestions for the discussion on the Mekong schedule - the 2016 Spring Festival.

Not only Guo Fan was surprised by Chen Jingxing's proposal, but Qin Zhonghe also felt that it was not reliable.

A police and gangster action movie, and there are many bloody scenes in the movie, which are both explosions and murderous. Such a movie has nothing to do with the Spring Festival. Wouldn’t it be a big deal for the audience to go to the cinema for the New Year to watch such a movie? Of course, the Spring Festival movie will release festive and lively films.
