China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 45 Internal Movie Watching Party of Fantasy World Network

Starting from mid-November, "Fatal Identity" began to appear frequently in various press releases and news on the Internet.

Initially, Zhang Chenming, a well-known producer of Jianghe Culture and a major player in the film and television industry, wrote articles and gave interviews. He used Luochen's contract dispute to criticize the intrusion of Internet capital into the film industry. His main target was the main promoter of Huanshi.com.

Two film projects of "Happy World" and "Fatal Identity".

From the hasty project establishment to just two weeks of shooting time, the low-cost movie "Fatal Identity" paid tens of millions of dollars to hire a star, and even scrapped the script and started filming before it was finished. Crosstalk actor Luo Wenshun changed the script on the spot and

Lines - "The World is Full of Joy".

If we are to be honest, the short shooting cycle, exorbitant pay, shooting before the script is completed, or even actors changing the script are not sufficient conditions for a bad movie.

There are countless classic films shot in a short period of time at home and abroad, and there are also great directors who shoot without scripts. There is no inevitable correlation between the high salary and the quality of the film.

However, Chinese netizens are currently being abused by bad movies, and Zhang Dapao's criticism accurately hit the G-spot of movie audiences.

The shooting cycle is short, the script is not taken seriously, and the remuneration ratio is too high. These are all common characteristics of bad movies. This wave of rhythm of Jianghe Culture Zone has indeed aroused the resonance of online public opinion.

What's more, the Huanshi.com project was indeed late. Both movies only started shooting in November. One movie was announced to be scheduled for the Lunar New Year, and the other movie was announced for the Spring Festival of the following year. Compared with traditional studios, the production and distribution rhythm is faster.

There are too many, and it’s really hard to refute when people accuse you of being a late-scheduled movie.

In fact, Fantasy World hurriedly approved the project for these two movies just to meet the deadline.

Throughout November, surrounding the burning and follow-up of the Luochen contract controversy, three movies, "Fatal Identity", "My World Has You" and "A Happy World" frequently appeared in the public eye. The difference is that director Li Junping

"My World Has You" is more positive, while "Fatal Identity" and "Happy World" are more negative.

At the end of 90 minutes, the lights come on.

[I wonder if there is something wrong with Director Zhang’s memory. Don’t you remember that the filming of "The Lucky Star" that you once directed was completed in only nine days? It is said that the shooting period of "Fatal Identity" was so short that it set a record. I wonder if this record is true?

What’s your record?】

Chen Jingxing was sitting in the chair in the second row. He looked around and could not see the faces of other people, but his heartbeat was speeding up and his palms were sweating.

Chen Jingxing directly took out his past movies and slapped him in the face. It was nothing more than a quarrel, and he was not afraid. Although Chen Jingxing personally is not a flamboyant character, in order to promote the movie and hype up the popularity, he regained his skills as an Internet troll in his previous life.

It's not difficult either.

Watching your own movie with hundreds of real people, the nervousness of worrying about gains and losses will probably be countless times stronger than today, right?

Huanshi.com has a dedicated movie viewing room. Purchased or self-produced film and television dramas, especially heavyweight programs, are generally watched in advance by Vice President and Chief Content Director Kang Hua and relevant department executives, producers and directors. "Fatal Identity"

As one of the only two theatrical film projects currently underway in Fantasy World, it is more important than other online film and television dramas. Even Senior Vice President Ren Bowei came to the viewing room to take a look at the quality of the film for the first time.

This is not over yet. Soon DreamWorks' official Weibo and Chen Jingxing's Weibo posted stills and on-set photos of "Fatal Identity" to refute rumors that the filming cycle of "Fatal Identity" is not fourteen days and is still being filmed intensively. .

[Haha, when "Comet" became an inexplicable hit, I said that this director has two brushes for hype. Before the filming of "Fatal Identity" was finished, it was speculated on the Internet one round after another. After the speculation, it turned upside down again. Hype, it’s already known to the whole internet even before it’s released. Is there something else Zhang Chenming is colluding with the director and Luo Chen, right?]

[Didn’t you read the director’s refutation of the rumors? How come it’s only 14 days and they’re not still filming? Besides, it’s not a science fiction blockbuster. Is there any necessary connection between the filming time and the quality of the film? “Comet” has only just been filmed. One week]

Zhang Chenming, who is now often seen as a well-known producer and producer, actually came from the Hong Kong film industry. He worked as a director for a period of time in his early years without making any achievements. He was also one of the first batch of people to join forces after the Hong Kong film industry fell into disrepute due to the rise of the mainland film market. One of the filmmakers who went to the north, he was recruited by Jianghe Culture. He was known for his straightforward speaking and not being afraid of offending his colleagues in the industry, so he was nicknamed Zhang Dapao.

[But doesn’t this also prove that there is some truth in what others say? The filming of "Lucky Star" only took 9 days, but wouldn't it be a big bad movie? 14 days is not much better than 9 days, right? You can't talk nonsense based on people's opinions. 】

Regardless of whether it is positive or negative, it is a win-win-win from a marketing perspective.

This is just a dozen people. When it premieres, there will be hundreds of viewers watching the movie with the creators.

Even though he knew that Zhang Chenming was the mouthpiece promoted by Jiangho Culture, he still had some resentment in his heart after watching this man pretend to be a wolf in various media interviews and constantly criticizing his movies from various angles.

Chen Jingxing currently has 500,000 followers on Weibo, which is pretty good among directors. This is mainly due to the popularity of "Comet" and a series of recent controversies. Many netizens who are new to following him are Luo. Fans or anti-fans of Chen.

Chen Jingxing tried hard to control his nervousness, but he still couldn't help but always pay attention to the expressions and movements of the people around him. This was completely out of his control. It was not because these people in the room were executives of Fantasy World Network who could decide this. The film's distribution partners paid such close attention, but Chen Jingxing only regarded them as audiences. There is nothing that tests one's mentality more than waiting in the cinema for the audience to judge his film.

Despite the disturbances from the outside world, Chen Jingxing focused on doing the work. Soon the entire shooting of the movie was completed, and after editing, it was sent to Fantasy World as soon as possible.

It’s Senior Vice President Ren Bowei.

Applause rang out from the front row.

[Jiang He has launched a lawsuit, but why are you still speculating? Have you ever seen someone hype it up like this? No wonder people like you find "Comet" incomprehensible. Your IQ is enough to watch those mindless movies. 】

[That's better than a crappy movie like "Comet" where the camera moves randomly...]

The applause soon spread to everyone in the room.

Although the idea of ​​using Jiang He's attack to promote both positive and negative aspects this time was proposed by Huanshi.com and Chen Jingxing readily accepted it, it does not mean that he cannot take advantage of this opportunity to avenge his private revenge.

As soon as the ridicule was posted, it quickly attracted attention and comments from the melon-eaters.

Not only did he refute the rumors about the filming time of "Fatal Identity", but he also listed a series of classic movies whose filming time was shorter than fourteen days. He slapped Jiang He and Zhang Dapao with his quick words ""Fatal Identity" set a record for the shortest filming time."

.

There are only ten seats in the viewing room, and some executives and producers can only stand in the back and stare at the 75-inch screen.

The lights have been turned off, and except for the light of the screen, the room is dark.

It is completely different from online movies.

"Papa pa pa"

After Chen Jingxing posted this on Weibo, he returned to the filming of the movie. At the same time, he changed the status of his Weibo profile to "shooting, do not disturb." He is well versed in the essence of quarrels with Internet trolls who can be dismissed in one click.

Chen Jingxing finally had a taste of the feeling of having a movie in theaters.

[Haha, I just searched and Zhang Chenming actually made this movie. It’s 4.9 on Douban. Haha, you’re still giving guidance like a human being. That’s too devoid of self-awareness, isn’t it? @张成明]

Generally speaking, people who eat melons still stand relatively close to Chen Jingxing. Firstly, the popularity of "Comet" at home and abroad has laid the foundation. Secondly, Zhang Chenming's cannon character is really disgusting to many people. Someone can stand up to him.

It is still popular with the majority of netizens.

"call……"

The sound of applause was accompanied by the uncontrollable and crazy secretion of dopamine. Chen Jingxing finally knew what a spiritual climax was.

If you are not a director, you will never feel the joy of having your film recognized by others. Even if it is recognized by the audience who has already read the script, even if it is with some polite applause, after all, it is almost impossible for real movie theater audiences to applaud after the movie.

Impossible things to happen.

This is my purpose as a director, just for this moment.
