Chapter 519, I want to challenge Cameron
"The funding for his "Westworld" alone is enough to kill our "Wesley" and Li Yun's "The Three-Body Problem" combined." Zhang Da Huzi said helplessly.

Li Liguo next to him added.

“Let’s add “Dying to Survive”.”

Science fiction requires not only a good script, but also money.

This is an insurmountable gap. Even a good cook cannot cook without rice. The difference in results caused by the difference in funding can really make people feel despair.

A feeling of despair that cannot be overcome.
With the script and cast already being top-notch, coupled with excellent funding, the resulting work is something that ordinary people cannot match.

Even if we consider the relationship between exchange rates and consumption, there is no way to bridge the gap.

At this moment, Yu Mingsheng was only thinking about how he, Wesley, could fight against "Westworld", and he didn't think much about Li Yun's work.

If Li Yun's work was soft science fiction, it would actually still be able to compete, but unfortunately, Li Yun's work is claimed to be hard science fiction.

It would be fine if they really claimed to be riding on the popularity.

It's incredible. If it's just to take advantage of the popularity of the hard shell, then it would be a good thing. If it's really just soft science fiction, then it still has some potential.

Soft science fiction focuses on humanity and the relationships between characters, and can be considered a subject that can survive in a small context, but hard science fiction, on the other hand, focuses on shaping the structure of the worldview.

The social logic and contradictions therein.

This is also the reason why Yu Mingsheng is the most pessimistic.

Because he really pays attention to hard science fiction works.

Because he really watches this kind of work, he had previously made a film disguised as a science fiction film called "Magic Phone".

It has some sci-fi touch, but it can't be called real sci-fi.

Because creating a world, a science fiction world, a world that exists in your fantasy, is definitely not as simple as using pale language. If you want to convince the audience, you must not only have a self-consistent worldview and system, rich plots and characters, but also the most intuitive visual effects.

Indispensable.

Just like a peerless magical skill, both the external and internal skills must be extremely outstanding to exert its effect, which is why major circles in the country stay away from this subject.

You need both talent and wealth.

Only then can it support a science fiction work.

This is definitely not an easy thing to do.

Science fiction is indeed a genre that can gain popularity around the world regardless of language.

But talent, money and courage are all indispensable.

If any one of these elements is missing, you will end up losing all your money.

All the passion flowed eastward, but in the end it ended up in vain.

However, even if you have talent, money and courage, there are other options with better cost-effectiveness.

Generally speaking, people will not go into the field of science fiction and challenge the areas where others are good at.

Especially in the field of hard science fiction
Yu Mingsheng had this feeling that this time, he had to force it.

It really is that "Wesley" is standing up to the might of "Westworld".

Will it win?
No, but at least.

Don't lose so badly.

At least one of them can gain a little reputation among the audience and science fiction association.

Yes, the Science Fiction Association has a great say in the results of domestic science fiction works. If we were to say which domestic association has a greater say, the Science Fiction Association would undoubtedly be ranked first.

It represents the 'elite group' who like to watch this subject matter.

The "elite group" covers all science fiction themes and they represent the high-end group in China.

They are elites with purchasing power, influence, officials, businessmen, and senior scientific and technological personnel, each of whom has his or her own unique influence.

It can be said that this group of people is the highest-end movie-watching group in the country.

The common people are probably far from the art they can appreciate.
It has good ratings targeting the common people.

It is easy to win awards for the high-end groups represented by science fiction associations - especially in today's science fiction field. Although the country is poor and weak, the resources represented by this association make people very tempted!

However, Yu Mingsheng also knew what he was doing.

A soft science fiction that ordinary audiences can applaud.

Not bad.

At the Bayi Factory, in Liu Shanhe's office, Li Mo was chatting with the old factory director.

"Don't be so pessimistic when you lose."

"That being said, if we judge rationally, Westworld is amazing."

Liu Shanhe was silent for a moment and then said, "There is no chance of winning. The only chance is to bite off a piece of meat from them and let them not win so comfortably. What a pity, this is clearly the seedling stage of science fiction."

No matter how arrogant a person is, he would not think that his "Wesley" project this time can compete with "Westworld".

For Liu Shanhe, the project of "Wesley" was just a "germ".

A pioneering effort, the beginning of science fiction.

Nothing grows up all at once, but grows gradually, step by step, from a bud to a sapling, and then to a grown tree. It takes a process.
A process of growing up
The process of starting from 0 and catching up.

But it seems that time doesn't wait for me, and time doesn't wait for them either.
When the budding was born, it faced works like "Westworld" and the real thing, which was directly introduced to the TV station and broadcast on the TV station.
It seems that it was introduced too "quickly", and the industry has expressed opposition to such rules, and some of it was quite fierce.

But Liu Shanhe knew that such a policy change was not aimless, nor was it a plan or change made on impulse.

Domestic science fiction had already "started" when he was young.

Moreover, national policies also restrict the entry of foreign works.

But in the past twenty years, what they got in return was that each circle reaped the benefits in its own field and suppressed the latter from a superior position in their own circle. They are experts in civil wars but novices in foreign wars.

There are not many works that are exported that have achieved commercial success, either because of "ulterior motives" or because of the
Even now, the impression that overseas people have about Chinese works is still that of the older generation of filmmakers like "Chengshilong" and "Yuan Jinbao". They have no impression of the new films and new filmmakers of the new era.

Today, the Hong Kong circle is already weak and dying.
There is no decent feedback from the mainland circles.
Now that everything has been liberalized, it's not as if everyone is facing a disaster.

So, Liu Shanhe did not have any resentment.

You have plenty of time, and it's no wonder you haven't grown up during this time.
Don’t blame others.

"So that's why." At this time, Li Mo said softly: "A fair and just situation is itself a kind of unfairness."

So Liu Shanhe was also very calm.

This time, the fight between the 'sprouts' was disrupted by enemies from the sky.

regret
At this time, Li Modu said.

"In fact, I can give my son something to look forward to."

"Well, it's best if it's on par with my Wesley."

Liu Shanhe is confident about "Wei Si Li". If the quality of "Three-Body" can be closer to that of "Wei Si Li", it will be the best.
If the sprout is not destroyed this time.

that would be nice.

However, Li Modu closed his eyes at this time and did not continue speaking.

What he meant was not that they were equals—

But, transcend,,.
Really, can it be surpassed?

At this moment, January.

This year has been defined.

On the Internet, this year is defined as the "year of science fiction." Cameron's Avatar, which is currently being filmed, has been hyped before it is released. The film, which cost 7 million US dollars, is only the first film.

"Avatar 2" was already launched before the film was released.

This is an unprecedented operation, and the second part has been approved.
Even though it is uncertain whether the first part has been completed, the investment has already been made for the second part.

The name Cameron is a guarantee.
Starting from "Westworld" in January, the domestically produced "Wei Sili" and "The Three-Body Problem" seem to be just a running-in foil - yes, in the science fiction association, most people think that these two are just running-in foils.

It’s just that on the Internet, his popularity for these two domestic works is still quite strong.

In the camp of directors and producers of domestic films.

These are all 'superb'.

Li Yun's "The Three-Body Problem", Li Liguo, Zhang Da Huzi, and Yu Mingsheng's "Wesley".

In previous years, the broadcast of these top-notch programs at the beginning of the year would have been as joyful as the Chinese New Year.

Well, after January, it is indeed time for the Chinese New Year.
For movie and TV lovers, it really is like the Chinese New Year.

Even though there are fewer good dramas at the beginning of the year than in previous years, it’s still okay.

Several top-notch ones.

But this year's start.

There is also an enemy coming from the sky.

The situation suddenly became one of one superpower and many strong.

Many people also feel sorry for it.

Time really waits for no one. The Chinese entertainment industry has been given so much time to develop.

Apart from the top-notch ones, the rest are second- and third-rate.

"The polarization is really serious. Either you are the top-notch ones who dare to face challenges head-on, or you are the cowardly ones who just throw out the second- and third-rate scraps to get by."

At this moment, Wu Hai, as an ordinary audience, watching everything happening in front of him, couldn't help but sigh.
It's so hard to choose.
In three works.

For the general audience, they should go to see "Westworld". The West is definitely better than China in the field of science fiction.
"Wesley" and "The Three-Body Problem" were born at the wrong time.

Or, in other words, if it was born earlier.

How wonderful it would be.

Of course, ordinary audiences are very genuine, and Wu Hai also heard the feedback in the forum clearly and sincerely.

Li Yun in "The Bad Kids" is awesome.

Li Yun in "Dying to Survive" is also very awesome.

One super, many strong.

Let's choose the one with super
Of course, for Wu Hai, "The Three-Body Problem" is just a work that he can support.

at this time.

Li Yun took some time off from his busy schedule to prepare for the upcoming "The Three-Body Problem".

The publicity and promotion was not lukewarm, and with the endorsement of the excellent previous works, the popularity also soared.

Li Quan's third work.

but.

Li Yun also realized that his popularity was only in the field of "domestic products", where he had his own status and popularity.

If it were really put together with "Westworld".

Most people would choose foreign works.

This is a kind of reality.

Li Yun felt a little bit amused. Theoretically, even if there was no "Westworld" this time, the planning of those domestic dramas would also be weak.
The King of Drama’s double bomb.

There is also the strong planning of Bayi Factory.

Others also backed off when they saw this lineup.
"Do you know? The industry's evaluation of you now is that you are gloating over other people's misfortunes, and you feel that the tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. They are both afraid of you and jealous of you."

Li Yuxuan took a sip of the light tea at this time.

I remember that the last time I came to Li Yun’s house, I drank bad tea. This time, I brought good tea from home.

"They are afraid of me, but they also hope that Western works can destroy me. Of course, I see it clearly."

Li Yun smiled and said, "It's not just me. The works of Bayi Film Studio also receive the same treatment."

The August 1st Film Studio represents the public works of the national system, and it is equally powerful.
“Yes, their works are also treated in this way.”

At this moment, Li Yuxuan said with a sigh.

"It's a pity. If Westworld had come out a little later, it would have been a real feast for domestic science fiction."

Li Yuxuan had no doubt about the works of Li Yun and Bayi Film Studio and firmly believed in the quality of these two works.

It's a pity that there is no room for growth
This is the most regrettable part.

The investment amount of "Westworld" seems to be a number that can make people despair.
A number that makes it impossible for anyone to have any resistance.

Is this really the data that can be projected from a TV series?

Unbelievable, it's really too perverted.

All I can feel is this despairing gap.

People are willing to invest the money in it.

This nonchalant attitude also makes people feel overwhelmed.

This kind of investment is really hopeless.
At this time, Li Yun was leisurely drinking the good tea brought by Li Yuxuan.

Good tea.

Gentle and noble.

"So uncle, should I despair?"

"That's not the case"

In fact, Li Yuxuan wanted to comfort Li Yun in advance.

Li Yun is now at the peak of his career.

He has become the Optimus Prime of the Chinese film and television industry.

But the more powerful and brave the position is, the more I feel.
Hold still.

Gotta hold on steady.

You have to cultivate your mentality. Li Yuxuan feels that the more talented one is, the more arrogant one is.

The easier it is to fall into despair.

But at this moment, Li Yun was smiling excitedly.

"Isn't this great? When Westworld is also lost to me, people won't think I'm crazy when they hear that I want to challenge Cameron."

At this moment, Li Yuxuan seemed to wonder if he had heard something wrong.

"You want to challenge Cameron?!"
