Disaster Artist

The latest website: Su Changting's brows unknowingly gathered towards the middle, and finally entangled tightly together. He couldn't understand the meaning of Lu Qian's words at all. But finally endured.

After Lu Qian's explanation bit by bit, layer by layer, Su Changting's reason and patience returned. Even if he didn't understand it for the time being, he still waited for Lu Qian's following.

Lu Qian, still continuing.

"With the progress of the times and the development of technology, in fact, the means of filming are also improving."

"'Unfriend' was shot with the front camera of a computer, there are fake documentaries for home cameras, and now there are movies shot with mobile phones."

"Aren't they movies?"

"Of course it is. Like the first film to be shot with an eight-millimeter camera, it's a slightly different image of the world from the creator's eyes."

"So, we must admit that the diversity of art naturally includes movies. Some movies are suitable for watching on the big screen; but some movies are not."

Having said this, Lu Qian paused for a while, waiting quietly for Su Changting's rebuttal.

However, Su Changting did not speak, but fell into a long silence.

In fact, before streaming media quietly debuted, the discussion about cinema and the big screen continued for more than 20 years. Because of the advent of videotapes and DVDs, people could go back to their homes to watch movies on TVs. At that time, relevant discussions were already appear.

However, why did video tapes and DVDs not die out, but instead rose up in an all-round way?

It's simple because you can make money.

Of course, there are many reasons behind it, because people find that the cinema is not only a place to watch movies, but also an entertainment place away from the family environment; because people find that the effect of watching movies on TV is obviously not as good as that of the big screen in the cinema... and so on. etc.

But in the final analysis, it is because the film company has the copyright resources, and the release of video tapes and video discs can make up for the many deficiencies in the box office of the theater.

With the development of the times, the technology of TV screens has become more and more mature, so the video disc market has gradually grown, and many loss-making works of large film companies ultimately rely on the distribution of video discs to recover the cost to reduce losses.

So, now Lu Qian asks a question:

What's the difference between streaming and TV?

After thinking about it, this is still a result of the times moving forward. Since they can accept video discs, why can't they accept streaming media?

But did they betray the cinema just like that?

Su Changting felt that he seemed to be surrounded, something was not quite right.

Lu Qian paused, and without waiting for Su Changting's words, he continued to speak -

To a certain extent, Lu Qian fully understands Su Changting's thoughts at this moment, but the essence of Lu Qian's preparation for streaming media is not to replace movie theaters, so he needs to show this.

"Some works do not focus on the creation of audio-visual experience themselves, and they are the same for viewing on computers, mobile phones, and projectors at home, and we use these works to attract corresponding audiences to subscribe to our streaming media platform, and then in We present works that are suitable for the big screen on our own platform.”

"First, we need to show the charm of these works and get the audience interested in them."

"Second, we need to show audiences why these works are suitable for the big screen, watching in streaming media and enjoying them in theaters are two different things, so that audiences can re-enter the theater, enter the theater dome, and really enjoy the full charm of these works. "

Su Changting was a little puzzled: ?

What do these words mean?

Until now, Lu Qian's plan for streaming media has really been laid out in front of Su Changting.

"On our streaming platform, we're going to do two things."

"On the one hand, here is Blue Whale Films, we will distinguish different types of movies, some movies are synchronized in theaters and streaming media, some movies are streamed after theaters are offline, and some movies are screened in theaters and then bilaterally. online."

"In this way, to distinguish the positioning of films, works like 'The Raid', of course, still have to be watched on the big screen; and works like 'Tourists', even if they are placed in theaters, it is estimated that the audience is very limited. It’s better to go live on streaming media after the screening in art theaters.”

"Let more audiences enjoy the movie and like it, that's our goal."

At present, the streaming media is still under construction, and it should be some time before the finished product, but Lu Qian has also been communicating with Ji Xu about these details——

In fact, Lu Qian is the same as Su Changting. Essentially, he likes movies, not just cinemas.

"On the other hand, there is the movie itself. After we have all launched the streaming media, we can make a mark, which movies need to be watched on the big screen to show the best effect."

"Of course, we're just suggesting that it's another matter whether audiences are willing to walk into a movie theater to see these works on the big screen."

"What we can do is to hold a film festival, just like the retro action film retrospective before, to make these missed big screens only available on streaming media but need to be on the big screen to get the best viewing experience. , and put it on the big screen.”

"Looking forward to the curious, interested audience who can come and really understand what we're talking about, why some movies are meant to be on the big screen."

"For example, 'The Raid' has completely different effects on the big screen, on TV, and on mobile phones. We need the audience to see and experience it in person to feel the wonderful experience brought about by those differences."

"The same is true for 'tourists'. Audiences often have prejudice against these drama films, as if these films only need to focus on the plot and watch the story, but in fact, these films really pay attention to the creation of audio-visual effects."

"However, it is difficult for the audience to accept only relying on our popular science explanations. Perhaps, we can complete such publicity through streaming media."

Brilliantly ~www.novelmt.com~ mighty, but Lu Qian's calm words set off a storm in Su Changting's mind, he couldn't believe that Lu Qian had sketched out such a grand blueprint——

When the film gradually declined, those large film companies fell into the rut of superhero blockbusters one by two, consuming the remaining vitality of the film like drinking poison to quench their thirst, but no one really thought about the future of the film.

But Lu Qian was different.

He conforms to the times, but breaks the shackles. Although it is uncertain whether Lu Qian's plan will be successful, there is no doubt that Lu Qian is working hard and trying.

The amount of information is somewhat large.

For the first time, Su Changting found that he couldn't keep up with Lu Qian's thoughts. When he was still angry about the fate of the Dome Cinema, Lu Qian had gone too far.

Raising his head, Su Changting looked at Lu Qian, but found that he was so poor at words, he just said one sentence,

"A Qian, do you know what you are doing?"
