Diamond company shoots commercials, you shoot Titanic

The key is to implement it.

Chen Xiao held the microphone and answered: "No problem, these are the views mentioned in recent papers, comments and interviews. Some of the views in the production just mentioned come from the article published by Professor Tao Xicai of Shanghai Film Academy in Guangming Daily. It is open to the public. It doesn't matter if you talk about it. The key lies in implementation."

At the same time, in a community in Shanghai.

A man in his fifties was frowning and wiping his pen carefully. When he heard his name coming out of the computer, his eyes lit up, put down the pen in his hand, sat back in front of the chair and stared at the screen.

Oh, he thought that heroes think alike.

It turned out to be his successor!

This guy usually reads a lot of materials, no wonder he can become a great man!

Tao Xicai touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

Finally someone is able to practice the theory, very good! So how can we give him some support...

While he was thinking, the scene quickly moved on to the next question.

A foreign reporter asked in a bit of broken Chinese: "Director Chen, you just mentioned "Interstellar", which is indeed a relatively successful example. Will you continue to shoot similar films or films based on this idea in the future?"

As soon as this question came out, the film and television people in front of the screen looked serious.

They all understood the reason just mentioned, but the key is to see what Chen Xiao is going to do.

In M country, it was already past two in the middle of the night.

The director of the production department of Chengbang Entertainment blinked and patted his cheek to make himself sober.

He could wait for the secretary to sort out the key information of the live interview in the morning. But curiosity got the better of him, and he was a night owl, so he might as well stay up a little longer and listen to it himself!

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the study, and a little girl in her early teens poked her head in, "Dad, aren't you still sleeping?"

"I'll go to bed in a while, you're going to the bathroom, right? Go back to your room and sleep, be good."

The minister drove his daughter away, sat back in his chair, crossed his hands and stared at the real-time translation on the screen.

Two days ago, major companies held a meeting to discuss how to work together to prevent Chen Xiao from over-grabbing the market.

In fact, Oriental Media is still a small company. The reason they are nervous is that Chen Xiao's film just hits their shortcoming.

They are now facing two problems.

The first is that as the world box office share increases, they need to make films that conform to world values, and coupled with the pursuit of speed in commercialization, their films are becoming more and more stereotyped.

The second is that minority groups have even become their primary consideration. For example, when remaking fairy tales, casting will be restricted.

But Chen Xiao doesn't consider these two points, at least in the short term.

If he is allowed to make billions of dollars from a movie, he will become a strong rival in three to five years.

They allow film and television exchanges, but do not allow others to grab the cake.

In order to prevent Chen Xiao from seizing the North American market and sweeping the box office, they have made a series of plans.

For example, according to the type of his new film, they will launch the second part of a different type of hit movie, cooperate with the theaters, and reduce the screening rate of his movies.

Of course, if they directly ask the theaters to reduce the number of screenings, they will definitely not be willing. So it depends on what type Chen Xiao's next movie is.

If Chen Xiao makes another science fiction commercial movie. They will launch the second part of the Superman movie that was popular in the past two years.

If the screening rate can't be increased, and he hits the wall a few times, he can just go back to China.

Want to get a high box office? Wishful thinking!

Just as he was staring at the screen nervously, he heard Chen Xiao's words from the speakers.

"Next one, make an art film."

The minister was stunned.

He raised his hand to shake the computer screen, and quickly held the mouse to switch the translation tool.

Is there a problem with the translation?

Art film?

How could it be an art film?

Art films focus on artistic expression and cultural connotation, rather than pursuing commercial interests or entertainment.

Chen Xiao talked a lot about how to go overseas, but he ended up making an art film?

After changing the translation tool, the subtitles on the screen still showed art film.

The minister frowned.

Impossible, he is not making money at such a young age, so he is pursuing art?

Or is he going to innovate art films?

Not only was he puzzled, but the reporters on the scene were also puzzled.

You talked a lot about going overseas, and I thought you were going to make a movie with a box office of tens of billions or even hundreds of billions, but you said you wanted to make an art film?

The next reporter asked this question for everyone, "Director Chen, making art films overseas is not very profitable, right?"

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Yes.

Making movies is not necessarily for the purpose of making money. I am a person with artistic pursuits. "

Speaking of this, Chen Xiao put down the microphone and coughed with his hands covering his mouth.

Oh my god, I don't believe it myself, I want to laugh.

He took a deep breath, picked up the microphone and continued: "In the next work, I want to focus on human nature and social reality, and strive to make a thought-provoking work."

As soon as these words came out, the minister in front of the screen's eyes lit up, slapped the table, and exclaimed: "Great!"

Oh, how good, young people should have some pursuits!

Why make a commercial film, it's so tacky to make so much money!

However, after laughing for two seconds, the smile on the minister's face gradually faded, and he raised his hand to touch his chin.

I always feel something is wrong.

He made an art film just after the company was established. Is this guy purely pursuing art?

Is he too vulgar, or is Chen Xiao's brain squeezed by the door? Observe again.

Not only was he surprised, but even domestic colleagues, fans, and media found it hard to believe.

"Director Chen should be a very rational person, right? I thought he was the kind of person who doesn't shed a tear for love, but can't sleep at night for money. "

"Since he donated so much, he should have a rich spiritual world. Then it's understandable that he makes an art film to express his own ideas."

"Ah? I'm a local dog. I want to watch entertainment and commercial films."

"If you have the ability, don't watch [dog head] when the time comes."

Just as netizens were discussing, the reporter also stuck in the last minute of the third link and asked another question: "Director Chen, can you reveal the name and theme of the new film?"

"The name has not been decided yet. The theme is..."

Chen Xiao paused.

"The Truman Show" has many themes. Individual freedom and social control, media's trampling on personal privacy, etc.

But the movie is not long, so don't spoil it. Just give a few words.

He thought for a moment and said: "Freedom, media, truth."
