My exes were all superstars

Chapter 533

China's science fiction is miserable, but China's animation movies are also miserable.

Let's put it this way, as for science fiction, everyone knows that there won't be any good science fiction movies coming out in the near future. Over the years, people don't have any so-called expectations for science fiction movies.

Then, for Guoman, it is more complicated.

That's right.

It's just complicated.

Because Guoman always gives people hope, but it always disappoints.

It's as if someone called out the renaissance of Guoman ten years ago. Ten years have passed, and Guoman has disappointed people every year.

There was always a chance, but the never, ever chance never came.

As someone in the industry said before, we can't always rely on "Mao Mao Mao Mao Mao Mao" to save us respect.

This is too embarrassing.

Yes.

China's Guoman has to rely on a young children's animation film to regain its respect. Don't you think this is not shameful enough? ? ?

In recent years, in fact, many people are not not working hard, they are working hard.

But sometimes.

As we said before.

The harder he works, the more he rushes to the street.

The current domestic animation films are facing such a dilemma. Sometimes you can’t even say that many creators of traditional Chinese painting films are not working hard. On the contrary, they have worked very hard and are also challenging themselves in various ways.

But it doesn't work.

Guoman movies are always hitting the street, and not just hitting the street for a while, but always hitting the street. When many people create Guoman movies, they do it entirely out of love.

This is actually a vicious circle.

If you don’t make money, then naturally there will be no capital investment, and if there is no capital investment, then naturally there will be no money to shoot, the production cost will not increase, and the quality will naturally be inferior, and then the audience will not buy it, and the box office hits the street. Capital is even less confident.

Basically, animated films have been miserable in the past few years. Except for the animated film "Mao Mao Mao Mao Fu" which continues to make profits, other animated films are basically the last one and lose one.

Take "Killing God", which was claimed to be the salvation of the Chinese manga five years ago, for example. This national manga film invested more than [-] million yuan in production, and it was adapted from an IP "Killing God" in the classical Chinese mythology. .

This is a standard ancient Chinese mythology. It basically tells the story of a person who believed in a god, found out that the god was just a liar, and finally killed the god.

I control my own life.

God is just a liar. I don't believe in God, I only believe in myself.

It's not that no one has filmed this story before, but the filming was not very good. Basically, it was filmed in TV dramas, and then randomly added love scenes, and even less in the case of animated films.

Because special effects are the most expensive thing.

In fact, this animated film was also made by "October Culture", and the main slogan at that time was still "the revival of Guoman". '.

Then such an animated film only got a box office of 7000 million in the end.

The box office of 7000 million is actually not small for a low-cost animated film, but for such a film with a production cost of more than [-] million and an announcement of tens of millions, it is not even enough for the publicity cost.

Therefore, "October Culture" has not recovered for almost three years, and is almost on the verge of bankruptcy. In the words of the boss, he has to go out to pick up some outsourcing to support the company.

About why the animated film "Killing the Gods" failed, "October Culture" also made some conclusions. They thought they did too much in visual effects, and at the same time changed the settings of the hero and heroine. .

how to say? ?
Originally, the original owner was just a story. The male lead has no emotional lines, and not only no emotional lines, but also no other so-called descriptions. This mythical story is very short, only 1200 words.

Well, "October Culture" has made a lot of expansions within the 1200 characters. Of course, there is nothing to say in terms of seriousness. According to them, hundreds of thousands of words were written in the script alone, and then various expansions were made.

Originally, "October Culture" wanted to make "Killing God" into a big IP. The first movie invested 2 million yuan. It can be said that it has stepped up special effects. Quite a lot of preparation.

Then, because the heroine is uglier, and then the heroine is compared to the Holy Mother, even if you hurt me, even if you hurt the common people, even if you hurt the whole world, I will influence you with love.

Such a Virgin is destined to be unpleasant.

Several times in the plot, it was because of the bad things of the heroine's Virgin.

Who likes to watch this? ? ?

The most important thing is that what everyone didn't expect is that in this animated movie, the male lead is made ugly, looking like a hooligan.

One must know that no matter what the male lead is not handsome, he must be clean.

The main creator explained this reason in an interview, saying that the male lead is actually an ordinary person around us, and his appearance is normal.

In this regard, many viewers did not buy it.

"I'm sorry, ordinary people around me don't look like this."

"That's right, if this is a foreign movie, I think it's a bit insulting to us Chinese people."

"Haha, I want to go together, this really won't work."

……

The current audience has passed the stage of being educated.

What everyone hates the most is that the main creator carries private goods, and that's all, and they want to get the audience's approval.

how is this possible? ? ?

Just like some martial arts dramas, it is obvious that they can have handsome men and beautiful women, but in the end, some ugly men are used to match them. What is the diversity of aesthetics? ?
The problem is that aesthetic diversity is not like this.

In fact, this point seems to be given to PUA by the West. The key point is that in many cases, Huaxia's characters are either pretending to be ugly or stereotyped in Western film and television dramas.

In many cases, the definition of "beauty" is in the hands of whoever has the right to choose.

But that is the West.

What Yu Xiaoshu has always wanted to do is to break this so-called definition.

Beauty can be diversified, but you can't open your eyes and tell nonsense.

For this reason, Yu Xiaoshu prepared one movie after another to change.

In this regard, we can only rely on movies.

As for the hit of the movie "Killing the Gods", "October Culture" also reflected on it. After all, the audience used the box office to speak, so they naturally had to change direction.

That's exactly why this "Lao Li's New Year" came into being.

The movie "Killing the Gods" originally wanted to be made into an IP by "October Culture", but the first film was so popular that it still made a fart IP.

After several years of enriching blood, the current "October Culture" puts its hope on the movie "Lao Li's New Year".

But there is one thing to say, after all, they don't have much money, and the major film and television companies don't have too much trust in this movie. As a result, 'October Culture' doesn't have much money to publicize and release.

The promotion of this movie really depends on tap water.

Xuanfa was not ordinary.

This time, Guo Han and Zhou Ming are friends after all, and Guo Han really thinks that the animated movie "Lao Li's New Year" is good, so he made a publicity in front of the live broadcast.

"I believe that Guoman will definitely get better and better. Please support the movie "Lao Li's New Year"."

Guo Han stopped talking after crackling.

Then, the microphone came to Zhou Ming.

Zhou Ming looked at the crowd and said, "First of all, thank Director Guo for inviting me to the premiere of "One World". I always feel that the relationship between us filmmakers in China is not a competition, but a relationship of solidarity and mutual assistance. "Lao Li's New Year" I got a lot of help from seniors when I was filming this animated film, so I hope everyone can watch it and support our national comic..."

Yep.

It's almost a publicity wave.

Next is the director of the movie "Blind Date". This director is considered a miracle in the industry, not a miracle in the industry, but also a miracle for the audience.

His name is Ding Yong, he majored in directing, but he was an actor at first, and his acting skills were good when he was young, but after he got married, his acting skills became worse after he was 32 years old.

Not only is his acting skills bad, but the key point is that this guy is relatively greasy and his character is not good, so the circle doesn't like him very much, and the audience doesn't like him either.

and then? ? ?
He's a director.

This point is quite similar to some other people, that is, there is no way to be a director, because no one beats me to act, so I can only be a director.

But when other people are directors, they want to find a good script, find a good assistant director, and then try their best to make a good movie.

But Ding Yong is not like this.

He is a typical master who wants to take shortcuts. The first movie he directed was to catch other people's attention, and then the second movie was to plagiarize other people's plots, and the third movie directly made a variety show.

In short, there is absolutely no lower limit.

But how? ? ?

He hasn't lost money on any of these three movies.

You have to know that there is no lower limit in the entertainment industry, especially as long as you can make money, there will definitely be countless people who are willing to support you and give you opportunities.

Ding Yong is like this, so he made another "Blind Date".

From the very beginning, everyone didn't take this "Blind Date" seriously. After all, Ding Yong's movies are bad movies. At most, this movie doesn't lose money.

If you don't lose money, you win.

Ding Yong is very open about this.

Guo Han invited him to the premiere, and he came naturally. He came with his wife Tao Xiuxiu.

Tao Xiuxiu is an actor, but there are basically no famous works in these years, not to mention, no one can even think of an important role.

As an actress, she gained some fame through scandals and hype.

When two people get married, it feels a little sympathetic to each other.

The two of them showed their love even more indifferent to the eyes of the outside world.

It doesn’t matter whether it’s the major awards ceremonies, premieres, or other commercial performances, basically both of them will show off.

This time it was no surprise.

When the two were interviewed, they first praised Guo Han, especially Ding Yong said: "Although I am a few years older than Director Guo Han, Director Guo Han is my predecessor, and I have to learn a lot from him when I make films. This time I participated in the premiere of "One World", I came here with a learning attitude."

Ding Yong's translation is quite good.

Tao Xiuxiu on the side did not forget to promote it to her husband. This is a live broadcast, and there are many people watching it. She expressed the hope that everyone can support "Blind Date" while watching "One World". She said with some distress: "My husband My hair is graying because of this movie."

Followed by other directors.

Among the several films in the Spring Festival this time, except for Chen Feng and the main creators of the other two animation films who did not come, the other films all had main creators.

In addition, there are some who come to join us.

Yao Qing didn't show up at the premiere of "The Rescue of the Future", because he was in the later stage of the web drama, but this time, Yao Qing brought Ding Xiaoman with Guo Han's movie.

On the red carpet, when Yao Qing was asked who was better for the Spring Festival, he smiled and said, "How should I answer? It's easy to offend people no matter what I answer, but I still trust Director Guo Han, so I'm going to talk about it after watching his "One Life". As for the other Lunar New Year movies, Chen Feng and I have been friends for many years. I believe in his movies, and I can't go wrong..."

Yao Qing is not a fool.

Besides, this Spring Festival movie basically has no interest relationship with Yao Qing, so why should he offend others? ? ?
As for Yu Xiaoshu? ?

Don't be funny.

On such an occasion, if Yao Qing mentioned Yu Xiaoshu, wouldn't that be giving Yu Xiaoshu heat? ? ?

And Yao Qing didn't give these reporters another chance to ask questions at all, he took Ding Xiaoman and left.

"Manman, we may run into Yu Xiaoshu in a while, remember, we must smile, in such an occasion, we must maintain a magnanimity."

Yao Qing reminded Ding Xiaoman: "Today's protagonist is Guo Han. Since we are here, we must give Guo Han some face."

Of course Ding Xiaoman knew it in her heart, but she was still moved and said: "My husband, if you don't tell me, I don't even know."

"It's okay, I have everything."

Yao Qing patted Ding Xiaoman's hand lightly and said.

He enjoyed the feeling.

For the reporters, they were indeed a little sorry, because they wanted to ask Yao Qing some sensitive topics, but they didn't ask, and Yao Qing left first.

This old fritters.

Then the reporter can only place their hopes on Yu Xiaoshu.

But they were also disappointed.

Yu Xiaoshu never walked the red carpet at all.

Wearing a mask, he came to the premiere very low-key.

Yu Xiaoshu did not come alone.

He came with Su Qing.

"Thank you, little tree."

Su Qing was very happy when she learned that Yu Xiaoshu invited herself to the premiere of "One World", because Su Qing really wanted to watch the movie "One World".

She felt that Yu Xiaoshu really understood herself.

In fact, Yu Xiaoshu didn't understand this, she just thought that the literary and artistic young women must follow Guo Han's tricks.

After all, many literary and artistic young women are like this.

I like to watch literary films.
