This director is very reliable

Chapter 12 First Day

"It's been my dream to be a director since I was a child. I will always remember the feeling of watching "Paradise Cinema" at home..."

"I fell in love with movies for the first time and determined to be a director, but I was very young at that time, and I thought that a film projectionist like the old man Efedo was a director."

"I still remember the little story mentioned in it now: There was a king who held a banquet for his princess. A guard saw the princess passing by. She was so beautiful that he fell in love immediately and fell in love with her. But the humble How can a soldier be worthy of a princess? Later, he finally had the opportunity to tell her that he could not live without her. The princess was deeply moved, and she told the soldier: If you stay under my balcony for 100 consecutive days and nights, I will give you my body. So the soldier waited for 1 day, 2 days, 10 days... The princess could see him every night, he was exhausted by wind and rain, and he would not leave, but on the 99th night, the soldier stood up, picked up the chair, and left. "

"I didn't understand this sentence before, but later, I gradually understood that the soldier expressed his love for the princess for 99 days, why did he leave? He expressed his dignity by leaving."

Shen Changlin shared his thoughts on directing on the podium...

Bai Yansong continued: "Then what kind of good movie do you think?"

"Films, as cultural and entertainment products, are updated very fast in the market. There are countless movies that are released non-stop in a year, but they can be called good movies. Few of them have been passed on by word of mouth. I think that to be called a masterpiece, the movie itself must have the connotation it wants to express.”

"Of course," Shen Changlin added: "The connotation must be felt by the audience! Otherwise, there will be nothing but form and no content!"

"Can you give me an example?"

"Too many, "The Promise", "Night Banquet"..."

"It's all the movies you scolded!"

"No, I never swear, I just criticize friendly~"

Bai Yansong is very good at controlling the atmosphere. When he is not holding the show, he is really a good host!

The Bai Yansong in my impression is always frowning, with a good air, as if I am an elite class, high-level intellectuals, you need to be educated by me...

But today's event, he didn't do that!

The host and guest had a great time, and the two talked about "Xiu Chun Knife" from domestic movies, then Ming history, and even exchanged views on Chongzhen.

Shen Changlin didn't like Chongzhen at all, but he also knew that the subjugation of the Ming Dynasty was almost irreversible-class conflicts had become so serious that they couldn't be added.State finances depended entirely on collecting taxes from poor peasants.Clan, civil servants, nobles, you can't touch any of the fattest pieces of cake.While wealth in the Southeast continued to grow, the country benefited little from it, and the government tax system was nearly dysfunctional.

The explosives in the country are already full, as long as a spark can explode, and once it explodes, it will be a vicious circle like dominoes.

Let's put it this way, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the right time, the right place, and the right people are the same. After catching up with the Little Ice Age, the common people were forced to have no way out. Do you still expect to rely on a few government troops to keep the people from rebelling?The people are not afraid of death, so why are they afraid of death?
After a lot of talking, we talked about "Xiu Chun Knife"...

When it was over, it was already [-]:[-] in the evening. We had a meal together, and Shen Changlin led the publicity team to catch the plane again—tomorrow is an offline event at Shanghai Station, and we will be on the same stage with Han Hanqian...

……

After arriving in Shanghai, a group of people boarded the car. Guo Songjiang received a call and asked Shen Changlin: "Mr. Zhou Liming was harassed by your fans, do you want to post a Weibo to restrain yourself?"

"It's to be restrained. I have been on Weibo these days, and I feel that many fans are underage, and it is too easy to be provoked..."

Shen Changlin took out his mobile phone to log into Weibo...

Then I found that the internet speed was a bit slow, so I put away my phone: "...Go back to the hotel, the current internet speed, my mobile login is too slow!"

"Then you still have to make mobile games!"

"...The era of mobile Internet is coming soon. Mobile games are the Red Sea. The game "Jinyiwei" will definitely make money. Even if the money is not much, it is a kind of experience accumulation..."

Only then did Shen Changlin remember that the mobile game "Jinyiwei" was also released today...

Hurry up and call the person in charge of the mobile game department. The latter connected and immediately announced the good news: "The download volume is good, and it has met expectations!"

“…are there so many smartphones?”

"We developed web games simultaneously, and there are more web game players than mobile game players..."

That’s right, during this period of time, smart phones haven’t developed by leaps and bounds. Except for Apple’s ios platform, which can retain game downloads, almost all mobile phones are non-smart or semi-smart button machines, and the games are all running in the java environment...

Shen Changlin got a general understanding. Anyway, according to what he said, "Jinyiwei" can pay back its capital in a month at most, and it should be able to support the operation of the game company in the future...

At least there is no need for Shen Changlin to throw money into it!

"Okay, I'll hang up first..."

Hang up the phone, feeling elated.

This is the advantage of Reborn, he has played most of the mobile games, "My name is MT online", "Time and Space Hunter", "Onmyoji"... buy a few game companies at will or take a stake in a few game companies...

I don't want to achieve the level of Fujixun and Netease, but I can still look forward to No.3 in the game market!

Just as she was thinking about it, Chen Jing also hung up the phone with a happy face: "I just received the news that today's box office summary is basically released, at least 2800 million!"

Before Shen Changlin could speak, Guo Songjiang and Deng Chao asked in unison, "...how much?"

"At least 2800 million!"

Chen Jing emphasized again...

Then a group of people froze...

……

The time is July 2010. What does 7 million on the first day mean in this time period?
Let's put it this way, the first-day box office of "Avatar" was 2960 million!
That is to say...

On par with Cameron?
Anyway, the draft of "Embroidered Spring Knife" has already spread all over the Internet: nearly 3000 million on the first day, setting a box office record for domestic movies!

200 million extra?
It’s not bad to blow 4000 million!

After all, it was only criticized last year—the publisher of Light Ray fabricated the box office of "Astro Boy", which was 1700 million in the first week, but the media reported it was 4000 million. It was criticized by the General Administration...

Leaving this aside, the entire internal entertainment industry was shocked.

Yes, everyone knows Shen Changlin's appeal - each of his books has sold more than one million genuine copies, and there are countless pirated copies.

But this is too exaggerated, close to 3000 million on the first day?
A Mou can't do it either!

You must know that the box office of Ah Mou's "Three Guns" last year did not reach 1600 million on the first day!

The one who regretted the most should be Hua Yi. When Shen Changlin took "Xiu Chun Knife" to find investment, the first one he looked for was Hua Yi. The latter weighed the theme and investment, and gave up...

After all, the box office of "Jin Yiwei" is vivid.

Shen Changlin was very calm, and @周丽明 on Weibo: "Thanks to Mr. Zhou for his objective comment, the movie "Embroidered Spring Knife" does have many deficiencies. I was a little ill-considered in arousing the audience's empathy...but this is my opinion. The first movie, I will still improve!"

By the way, I posted on Weibo the next day: "Thank you for your support... In addition, let me say that film critics and audiences watch movies are two different concepts. I believe in Teacher Zhou's professionalism, and his evaluation is very objective... In addition, As the director of "Embroidered Spring Knife", I must say: this movie is not bad, definitely not a bad movie!"
