Chapter 456: Your surname is Heguang Wenhua?
Seeing the news posted by Li Youzhi, everyone in Lezi was speechless.
I previously suggested that Li Youzhi go to the film festival, but it was just a random suggestion by Leziren netizens when the box office of "Nezha" was approaching 3.5 billion, and they were inflated!
What's going on with Li Youzhi now?
Although Li Youzhi still remains humble and obeys the advice of netizens, he is actually the director of three hit movies. With "Dear", "The Wandering Earth" and "Nezha", the domestic box office has reached a total of 8.6 billion, a supernova. !
There are many stars in the domestic film and television industry with a cumulative box office of over 10 billion, and there are more than a dozen of them.
But what is it like with these people?
Many people get their money by squandering the box office!
If you see which movie project has potential, you can find connections to play a small role in it, and after it becomes a hit at the box office, you will shamelessly accumulate the movie's box office to yourself.
What happened to Li Youzhi’s 8.6 billion?
Not to mention "The Wandering Earth" and "Nezha", although "Dear" plays a supporting role, he is the main producer and screenwriter - the three films are all genuine box-office hits!
Generally speaking, competing for awards at foreign film festivals is something new directors do just to gain fame.
With Li Youzhi's current status as a celebrity, there is actually no need to compete for prizes.
Now seeing Li Youzhi being attacked by colleagues and anti-fans in the film industry, and being named and dissed by China Film Group bosses, Li Youzhi is still focusing on winning awards at film festivals, and the comment section is boiling!
"Mom, brother, we are here to help you fight against the three forces. Do something serious, Hun Dan! You fellow rubbish guys obviously just want to mess up the postponement of "Nezha", so you should be anxious!"
"I don't know whether to laugh or cry... I'm just asking if we can set up a proposal review organization in the future to check for the little brother and filter out some garbage and useless tasks! When did this happen? Make Mao animations and participate in Mao's film festivals!"
"That's right, Zhuo! Before going outside, you must first settle down inside. I need to quickly find connections and stabilize the postponement of "Nezha" first!"
I can't help but have fun and people are not in a hurry.
"Nezha" has now reached a box office of 3.7 billion, with a return on investment of 1:9. Although the film's box office growth has slowed down after a month of screenings, with the current box office trend of more than 70 million per day, coupled with the postponement, it can catch up with the small peak of movie viewing on New Year's Day, and at least there will be another ten Billion box office revenue was recorded.
What does this mean to people who have participated in film crowdfunding?
Then there is the difference between going to a foot bath city and ordering a gold medal technician and a gold medal star technician!
However, just as the shareholders of Leziren were furious and making wild complaints in the comment area, suddenly a large number of comments with excessive "fuck" content appeared in the comment area!
"Holy shit, shit, shit! Brothers, go watch the short film first! What kind of fairy style is this?"
"Holy shit! I just watched the beginning and my knees went weak. I pissed myself after watching this short video!"
In the comment area, looking at these sudden comments, many happy netizens clicked on the short video of "Landscape Love".
It was at this moment that a picture scroll made of ink and full of meaning appeared in front of netizens!
The story of "Landscape Love" begins in a fog dyed with ink;
On the bank of the mist-filled river, an old luthier stood with his head tilted in his arms.
The autumn water is vast, and the bleak cold wind blows away the reeds along with a brisk flute sound, and also stirs up three or five wild ducks in the reeds.
The young man holding the punt held a reed flute and came on the ferry to divert the water. The harpist, who had been standing there in the mist for an unknown period of time, caught the ferry.
The autumn wind blows and white clouds fly, the grass and trees turn yellow and the wild geese return south.
Looking at the vast lake and the gloomy clouds in the distance, the old violinist sitting on the bow of the boat couldn't help but be lost in thought.
However, the young man behind him was playing a cheerful reed pipe, breaking the autumn loneliness. Just as the old luthier was listening, the boat had arrived.
Perhaps due to the river wind, or perhaps due to the fatigue of the journey, the luthier who had just landed fell ill.
The young fisherman rescued the violinist and put him in his hut.
After waking up, the luther player heard the reed flute outside the window and slowly took out his guqin. Following the tune of the reed pipe, the faint sound of the piano lingers among the mountains and rivers.
The sky is high, the clouds are wide, the piano and the flute are melodious, driving the water flowing by the river, and also affecting the young man's mind.
Looking at the guqin on the luthier's lap, the young man who ran home approached it curiously. Faced with the boy's curious eyes, the violinist strummed the strings and demonstrated the most basic tunes.
A teacher-student relationship was tied together at this moment.
The maple leaves on the riverside turned red, the cold stars and the cold moon became brighter and brighter, the cold mountains and calm lakes in the distance were overturned by heavy snow, and the spring breeze like scissors blew away the ice...
Harvest in autumn and store in winter. Winter goes and spring comes.
The spring breeze awakens the mountains and rivers and brings vitality to the world.
As time went by, the boy's music changed from jerky and hesitant to expressive and moving.
On the rocks by the lake, listening to the interesting music played by the young man on the shore, and following the music of the fish swimming happily in the water, the music player looked towards the horizon;
Watching the eagle teaching its young eagle how to fly and resolutely fly away from the horizon, leaving the vast sky to its young eagles, the old luthier put away his fishing rod.
He realized that it was time to say goodbye.
On this day, the old violinist took the young man to the mountains. Follow the secluded stone path, pass through the forest with fish leaping, apes leaping, birds chirping and insects chirping, and arrive at the top of the mountain.
Above the clouds, the old violinist gave the young man the piano that had been with him for many years and said goodbye.
Holding the guqin in his hands and looking at the old guqin player who was gradually disappearing into the mountains and rivers, the young man ran towards the top of the mountain.
Looking at the mentor in the distance who has blended into the landscape, he played the strings. The sound of the piano, full of friendship for the teacher, passed through the mountains, through the water, through the blue clouds about to rain, through the smoky gurgling water, watching a small boat under the clouds go away into the distance.
The boat meets the wild crossing, and the road to Qinyin Mountain is farewell.
Shaking hands.
Looking at the end of the short film, which is drawn with a large blank space and dotted with ink, the back of the young man standing on the top of the mountain with his hands on the piano and looking into the distance, and then seeing the small mountains and rivers emerging in the blank space along with the ancient music, from the screenwriter and director to the background character design Even the music was composed by Li Youzhi, and there was only one production list with the participation of the Central American Painting Department. Netizens who were still irritable just a moment ago... were stunned!
"Brothers... say something? If you don't speak, I'll be afraid of you."
"What the hell did I say? What the hell did you ask me to say? That's outrageous! It's the first time I've seen a work that feels like it's blasphemous. It's the first time I've seen nine years of compulsory education and six years of compulsory education. What the hell can I say about a work that cannot be judged by the accumulation of higher education?!"
"Damn it, this is Chinese animation. The background of the landscape painting, the sound of the guzheng and the flute, tears suddenly fell down. The snow melted in the mountains and flowing water, a small boat fish played in the water, and the eagle struck the sky and the bright moon in the water... The large splashes of ink and freehand brushwork are all so vivid and lifelike. The meaning behind the long lens and empty lens is long... I really don’t want to show this kind of work to foreigners, I’m afraid they can’t taste the fine chaff of wild boars!”
"It's hard to imagine that an animation can bring me such a rich emotional experience in just ten minutes. Loneliness, melancholy, elegance, cleanness, and emptiness... It has a complex emotional catharsis, but it is light and easy, and the mountains and rivers are in harmony. , kites flying in the violent sky, clothes and belts blowing in the wind, mist blowing on the face, gatherings and separations... Every frame is the embodiment of Chinese culture and thought!"
"TMD I can't understand why someone who can make such a work would be questioned and criticized! Come on, come on, those Internet scumbags and garbage directors come over and give me a good look. This is why we are trying our best to protect you! If you can come up with something like this, we will defend you just like we defend him!"
" @I advise my little brother Li Youzhi to go to the film festival with peace of mind. I don’t want you to win any awards. I just ask you to let the world see the true beauty of China!"
"Brothers, what do you say?"
"What do you say? Capture the thief first, capture the king, brothers, let's start!"
Last night, China Film Publishing Company Liu Xiuyi publicly questioned the key delay of "Nezha". Many industry colleagues and Internet trolls who were unhappy with "Nezha" before watching "Nezha" have already started to party.
Driven by several hot searches, many people who eat melons have been attracted by this confrontation in the film industry and come to cut melons.
With the update of Li Youzhi's shaking hands, at this time, many melon-eating netizens have also finished watching the short film "Landscape Love".
In the two hot searches on Weibo about the delay of "Nezha" and questioning the high box office of "Nezha", the comment trend... has begun to change!
at the same time.
China Film Distribution Branch.
Looking at the two hot searches that topped the hot list, Liu Xiuyi, general manager of China Film Distribution Branch, picked up the teapot in his hand.
Liu Xiuyi is no stranger to Li Youzhi and Heguang Culture, and can even be said to be an old acquaintance.
Before "The Wandering Earth" was released nationwide, China Film Group also participated in the distribution, and more than 200 theaters owned by China Film Group participated in the screening.
In fact, including this time "Nezha", China Film Distribution is also involved.
The box office share of "Nezha" also includes a portion of the proceeds from the China Cinema Line.
But the second extension still challenged Liu Xiuyi's bottom line.
What bottom line?
There are too many official units involved in the production, and too many resources have been invested!
Although "The Wandering Earth" cost more than 200 million to produce and had a box office of more than 400 million, it was produced by three private companies: Heguang, Xinhai, and Qiangsheng.
What's going on in "Nezha"?
More than a dozen promotional units, led by the film bureau... With the support of the Film and Television Development Fund, the box office is now heading towards 4 billion. If the one-month delay this time is included, I am afraid that it will set a domestic movie box office record of 5 billion. !
If this record is achieved, how will China Film be allowed to mess around in the future?
Now, looking at the two hot searches about "Nezha" on the hot search list, Liu Xiuyi took a hard sip of tea and hummed with a smile.
You, Li Youzhi, said you wanted to engage in animation in Chengdu, but what was the result? Propaganda in various places responded to the call.
At the Film Bureau, we applied for another tens of millions of film and television development funds.
You and Guang Wenhua have the same surname! ?
Bang!
Just as Liu Xiuyi was looking at the hot search list on Weibo, his office door was suddenly pushed open.
The loud sound made the teapot in Liu Xiuyi's hand tremble in fright, and the hot tea went straight to his crotch!
"What?!"
Looking at his secretary who broke into the door, Liu Xiuyi, who was almost scalded, jumped up.
"Mr. Liu, the official website... our official website of China Film Group has been hacked! The group's public relations department called us to ask about the situation!"
ah?
After hearing the secretary's report, Liu Xiuyi was startled, then threw aside the teapot with most of the water spilled, opened the official website of China Film and went straight to the message area.
Looking at the tens of thousands of netizens' messages in the message area, which filled the screen with "Are you called China Film Group?", Liu Xiuyi suddenly became famous.
It's against the grain... Heguang Culture and this group of netizens who don't know the heights of the world are against it!
