tearjerker director

Chapter 330 Everything happens for a reason, and the interests move people's hearts

"This Xue Kaishan is really." Chen Wen couldn't help shaking his head and laughed.

"What?" Li Yi looked suspicious.

"This "A Hero's Choice", let's see who is the director?" Chen Wen said with a smile, pointing to the director column of a movie called "A Hero's Choice" on the film list.

"Xue Yibin?"

"You mean that Xue Yibin is related to Xue Kaishan?" Li Yi asked suspiciously.

"Of course, this Xue Yibin is Xue Kaishan's own nephew, tsk tsk, this is to give his nephew a platform in advance." Chen Wen tsk tsk said in amazement.

"No, what's the use of him naming and criticizing "A Story More Sad than Sad"?" Li Yi was puzzled.

"Why is it useless? You are still too young!" Chen Wen shook his head.

"Do you know Xue Yibin?" Chen Wen asked again.

Then he shook his head again and said: "Obviously you don't know, this Xue Yibin can be said to be the number one young director without your presence!"

"No, ask brother, why haven't I heard of Xue Yibin's works?" Li Yi looked puzzled.

"This is normal, because Xue Yibin was not in China before, but in Hollywood, and he has independently directed three films in Hollywood. Although they are all low-budget, they are all theater movies, and each one is considered a success!" Chen Wen said.

"And this "A Hero's Choice" is obviously the first movie he made after returning to China. Its importance is self-evident, so you understand?" Chen asked with a smile.

Li Yi shook his head and said, "But what's the use of Xue Kaishan doing this? Could it still affect "The Garland Under the Mountain"?"

"I don't know about this, but if you are really labeled as having a bad view, it will have some influence on your next movie, which is "Greath under the Mountain", right? Of course, It doesn't rule out that he has other purposes, such as suppressing your reputation, setting off his nephew, etc. Yes, there is also Huaying's investment behind "Hero's Choice", maybe he wants to use this to suppress you, and then Striving for more resources?" Chen Wen asked suddenly.

"Isn't it? Just relying on Xue Kaishan's words?" Li Yi felt a little absurd.

"It's hard to say, don't underestimate Xue Kaishan. Once public opinion is brought up, some people will have a bad opinion of you." Chen Wen frowned.

"Forget it, don't think so much, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge!" Li Yi shook his head.

It's just that what Li Yi didn't expect was that the phone rang as soon as he finished speaking.

He glanced at the caller ID, and it was actually Zhao Guangming calling.

"Mr. Zhao! What instructions?" Li Yi answered with a smile.

"How's the progress of your movie? Can you catch up with the National Day file?" Zhao Guangming asked with a smile.

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhao, the filming is coming to an end, and the post-production is going on simultaneously, so we won't miss the schedule." Li Yi replied.

"Then how many days earlier?" Zhao Guangming asked suddenly.

"In advance?" Li Yi frowned involuntarily.

You must know that the National Day file, the most important thing is the week of the National Day holiday. If the file is raised, it may not be a good thing for a movie like "Wreath under the Mountain".

After all, the time for box office explosions is in the early stages of release.

"Why did Dong Zhao suddenly want to raise the file?" Li Yi asked, but there was a little speculation in his heart.

"It's nothing, the main reason is that there are too many movies released in the National Day file this year, and the involution will be too serious by then, so if the file is raised, we can give the greatest tilt to the film schedule," Zhao Guangming said.

Li Yi was a little silent, obviously he was not particularly satisfied with Zhao Guangming's conditions.

He understands what Zhao Guangming means. If the file is raised, the theater chains under Huaying Group can give the greatest tilt, but there is one thing he didn't say, that is, when the National Day holiday comes, then when the time comes, "Under the Mountain" "Garland of Flowers" is no longer a new film, but the film schedule can be cut off for other films.

"Dong Zhao, why is it my movie?" Li Yi asked.

"Little Li, just take it as a face for me, and if "Garland Under the Mountain" performs well, in fact, it will be able to take the lead if it is released first," said Zhao Guangming.

"May I know the reason? I'm just curious, is it because of "A Hero's Choice"?" Li Yi asked with a smile.

"Yes!" Zhao Guangming said after being silent for a while.

"The prototype of that movie has wronged you!" Zhao Guangming said immediately.

"I understand! But, Mr. Zhao, if the performance of "Wreath under the Mountain" is better, you will have a bowl of water." Li Yi said with a smile.

"That's natural. The movie is released, and it all depends on the market. Now it's a market economy!" Zhao Guangming said with a sigh of relief when he heard Li Yi's words.

Li Yi hung up the phone, shaking his head and smiling wryly.

"What? Still need to raise the file?" Chen Wen asked.

Li Yi nodded: ""The Choice of Heroes" has a prototype."

Chen Wen understood immediately, but then frowned again, and took out his phone to look at it.

"Tsk tsk, Hollywood-style main theme? And it actually chose a story at the same time as our movie, no wonder!" After a while, Chen Wen tsk-tsk in amazement.

"However, they have a good plan, but they don't know if it will backfire?" Chen asked disdainfully.

"It's counterproductive?" Li Yi wondered.

"This kind of movie with prototype characters can indeed get various benefits when it is released, but it's hard to say after it is released. If there are prototype characters, then it can't be too commercial, otherwise, you know!" Chen asked. He smiled and blinked.

Li Yi immediately understood that indeed this kind of movie with historical archetypal characters, and a movie with archetypal characters alone, must have the main theme.

But this Xue Yibin made his debut in Hollywood. The main theme of Hollywood, heroes, must have shortcomings, either the family is not in harmony, or he only cares about work and ignores family.

There is nothing wrong with this, and it is completely OK to shoot in China, but the problem is that he chose the subject matter with historical prototype characters.

Then these things are a big problem!
On the other side, Xue Kaishan and Xue Yibin also got the news.

"Uncle, in fact, I hope to meet this Li Yi and win head-on, it will be more convincing!" Xue Yibin said.

"There are opportunities, but not this time. This is the first film you directed back in China, so there is no room for loss!" Xue Kaishan said indifferently.

"Tuk tuk!" At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in!" Xue Kaishan shouted.

It was Xue Kaishan's wife, Zhou Ning, who came in.

"Old Xue, someone has recorded your rhythm on the Internet, take a look!" Zhou Ning said, frowning.
