Disaster Artist

Ji Xu looked at Lu Qian seriously. Although Lu Qian had no interest in business and management, in fact, Lu Qian had always had his own unique ideas about the overall view of the times.

After the unbelievable success of "Unfriending", Lu Qian's planning and vision have always been able to grasp the key along the way.

The same is true at this time.

Aware of Ji Xu's eyes, Lu Qian showed a smile, "I know you feel your IQ crushed, don't be too discouraged or too sad, I won't bully you."

Ji Xu silently gave Lu Qian a middle finger.

Lu Qian laughed happily, but the words still didn't end.

"Do you know why the TV industry has regained its vitality after the rise of online video?"

Ji Xu thought for a while, "Because the constraints of film images have weakened, TV dramas that don't focus on image style will have more room for development."

"This is part of the reason." Lu Qian nodded his head in affirmation, "and part of the reason is because of the audience we just discussed."

"We can look back, the movies of Fantastic Pictures are always family-friendly, not to mention the prohibition of blood and violence, but at the same time, it is also forbidden to discuss serious issues in life. Even if they are discussed, the ending is often happy. Happy ending."

"why?"

"Because they're worried about their brand image, and because they're worried that the mainstream market doesn't like the movie."

"For works released in theaters, all film companies and producers need to consider one key point: the market box office, how many audiences are there for entering the theater?"

"Including me."

Ji Xu nodded lightly in agreement, "Unfriending" and "Raiding" are both doing subtraction, which is the reason; also, it is also because of this that he began to worry about the prospect of "tourists".

"That is to say, the market consideration of movie theater attendance limits the creative space to a large extent, and shackles the hands and feet of creators to a large extent, not only Magic Pictures, but also all other film companies."

"However, online video sites don't have such troubles."

When Lu Qian said this, Ji Xu had already reacted—

Just like art films, the Internet is a platform for the whole world, where everyone can freely find their favorite genres, so even art films can also find fans.

Naturally, the shackles of the "market" are loosened, which allows creators to be bolder, more presumptuous and more direct to implement their ideas, because they don't need to consider how many audiences are willing to go to the cinema, anyway, on the Internet, they can always Find niche supporters.

"In a certain sense, online video sites have indeed destroyed video art, but in another sense, their appearance has also released more inspiration for art creators."

Everything has two sides and cannot be viewed in a simple way.

Lu Qian's words made sense, but Ji Xu couldn't fully agree, "However, online video sites also need to subscribe to users, and they also need to take care of the broad audience, they can't completely ignore the needs of mainstream audiences, and the influence of the market must still exist. "

Indeed, this is also the reason behind countless "big data movies".

Online video sites draw conclusions based on data algorithms, and then shoot a slew of movies that fit "search preferences", often simple and stupid, with no appreciation value.

Lu Qian nodded in affirmation, "This is inevitable, no one can completely reject the influence of the market."

"But that's the negative impact we have to accept."

"The best solution is for us to make more good films, like 'Unfriend' and 'The Raid', the success of one production will allow us to make ten art films with different styles, and then put the whole Online video sites thrive."

Having said that, Lu Qian paused for a moment, then looked at Ji Xu.

"Student Ji, I want to establish such a platform, and welcome all directors of different styles to boldly pursue their own artistic creation paths here. Here, directors like Jiang Paifeng and Hou Xiaochuan can still continue to create, and directors like me can continue to create. You can also continue to try different things.”

It was a dream, a small but huge dream.

"Like the whale named Alice, you can find other 52-hertz friends here."

Quietly, gently, Lu Qian's words surged in the winter night.

Ji Xu inexplicably remembered the years when Lu Qian was expelled from the streamer film industry. He carefully stated his desire to be a director, and then devoted himself to the script adaptation and creation, and then completed the filming of the film wholeheartedly. All exuded pure enthusiasm.

Lu Qian, it's always been like this, it hasn't changed from before to now.

However, there are always people who try to destroy this simplicity with ugly and dirty means, and then say, "The real world is like this, everyone else does it, why can't I?"

Just because everyone does it doesn't mean it's right, and just following the crowd doesn't mean it can be forgiven.

"Okay." Ji Xu nodded slightly.

Then the smile on the corner of his mouth rose, and Ji Xu nodded heavily again, "Okay, A Qian, let's build this online video site."

Looking at Ji Xu who was excited and impassioned in front of him, the smile in Lu Qian's eyes followed, and the laughter was surging shallowly in his chest.

"Student Ji, are you sure? Maybe I've come up with a terrible idea?"

"So what? At most, it is to return to the origin of nothing. A Qian, we are still young.

Ha ha.

Lu Qian laughed cheerfully, but immediately found that his voice broke the tranquility of the resort, and quickly covered his mouth, the two immediately looked around nervously, worried that they would disturb the rest of others, and finally saw each other The sneaky expression couldn't help but laugh sullenly, laughing at each other's appearance.

It was difficult to control the laughter a little, and the thoughts settled down.

Then Ji Xu discovered that he was only worried about the benefits of "tourists"~www.novelmt.com~, but now things are getting bigger and bigger, in order to solve a problem and create a bigger problem, is this putting the cart before the horse?

"A Qian, why do I feel like I'm on a pirate ship?"

"I just found out now that the arc length of your reflex nerve is really worrying."

"..."

"Oh, don't think about it so much, don't you know? That's how top big companies are. They borrow money to start a company and borrow money to develop. After they grow up, they all carry trillions of debts. Everyone is like this. came here."

"Uh...you mean we're going to carry trillions of dollars in debt?"

"Haha. That's what both you and Xiu Zhong need to worry about. Why, how much does it cost us to build an online video website?"

Looking at the innocent face of Lu Qian, Ji Xu suddenly found out that this guy is all relying on one mouth, and it turns out that the one who is really tired is him, okay?

Full of black lines.
