Disaster Artist

Chapter 476: turn the tide

The latest website: Streamer Films? cooperate?

sure?

Eighteen months ago, Liuguang Films announced the "expellation" of Lu Qian, unswervingly drawing a line with "inferior artists", showing the domineering and toughness of big companies.

According to the normal development track of the entertainment industry, there will never be any intersection between the two, because the name "Lu Qian" will be completely forgotten and no one will mention it again.

But who would have thought that the open and secret struggle between Liuguang Films and Lu Qian has become the most talked about gossip in the entire Vanity Fair.

Now in Lanchuan, there should be no one who doesn't know about Lu Qian and Liuguang Pictures, even the rookie who just arrived in Lanchuan with the dream of an actor:

"If you still want to have any possibility of cooperation with Liuguang Pictures, don't provoke Lu Qian."

"Are you going to audition for Lu Qian's work? Oh, then it's best not to mention your last guest appearance, which was produced by Liuguang Pictures."

If you don't hear anything at all, you are either isolated from the world or excluded from the industry, either of which may be bad.

If nothing else, "Gentleman's Secret Order" and "Quick Pursuit" are still fighting in the theaters - although "Gentleman's Secret Order" was pressed to the ground and rubbed against the ground, "Quick Pursuit" seemed to set off a wave. A new underworld, action genre movie frenzy.

However--

"...how hungry are they?"

The first reaction in Lu Qian's mind was this, he directly made Yu Shao on the other end of the phone laugh out loud, and he could feel that Yu Shao was in a good mood without being face-to-face.

"Brother Yu, I'm serious, are you sure it's not a trap?"

"They shoot and produce more than 30 works every year, and prepare to produce more than 300 works. They have the entire Lanchuan film talent resources, and there is no reason to lower their arrogant heads to seek my cooperation."

When I first heard that Liuguang Pictures was seeking its own cooperation, the feng shui changed positions by turns, and the active and passive status was reversed. The first thought in my mind was,

"They have a day like that too."

Joy and happiness naturally don't need to be said, but after raising your eyebrows and calming down, your reason returns to your brain, and you can't help but have a little doubt.

If the top major film companies such as Damen Film Industry and Qiyang Media are seeking cooperation with Lu Qian, it is 100% understandable. For them, interests come first. As long as the works produced by Lu Qian can make money, there is no need for them to watch Liuguangying. industry's face.

That's why Damen Pictures and Dong Ruixian came to seek cooperation.

But Streamer Films?

"Has there been any personnel changes in their senior management?"

This is Lu Qian's most reliable and boldest guess. It is more reliable than conspiracy and tricks to set up traps and pit Lu Qian - after all, Lu Qian is always vigilant.

A low laugh came from Yu Shao's throat, "Director, you should have more confidence in yourself."

Lu Qian curled his lips, "Trust me, I'm very confident in myself, but I also know that in the face of capital, the talents of directors and producers don't mean much."

This is also the reason why Lu Qian established Blue Whale Films.

It is more difficult than ants to shake an elephant by simply fighting against capital. Although theoretically, as long as you have a long enough lever, you can move the earth; but the problem is that finding this lever may be more difficult than leveraging Moving the earth is even bigger.

Against capital with capital, at least they can compete on a platform.

Therefore, if it is said that the streamer film industry came to the door purely because of Lu Qian's talent and ability, Lu Qian would not believe it at first.

Yu Shao's words got stuck in his throat, he paused for a moment, and then he couldn't hold back and laughed happily.

He thought that Lu Qian would be ecstatic, or that he couldn't wait to teach Liuguang Pictures a lesson, but obviously, his vision was still narrow.

"Director, there are reasons, of course. The specific situation is still unclear, but I have heard some interesting news."

"You know Shi Wenxun, right?"

The story is a long story, and even needs to involve the changes of the entire film industry in the past ten years, but long story short, it can be briefly summarized.

Exactly eight years ago, superhero movies were on the rise, and comic adaptations became a trend. Naturally, mastering the rights to adapt comics was equivalent to mastering a gold mine.

Among Lanchuan's top film companies, at least four companies have the right to adapt, and the most resourceful is Streamer Films, followed by Magic Films.

In the field of superhero movies, it is the streamer film industry that has a larger mass base and is the first to put superheroes on the big screen and succeed.

However, it is Magic Pictures that really makes superhero movies flourish and create brilliance. They entertain and serialize superhero movies to form a whole huge universe, and the interaction between heroes and heroes is completed——

Three of the six protagonists of "League of Knights" had solo films and achieved great success before co-starring in a group film that exploded at the box office.

On the contrary, Streamer Pictures has experienced the failure of four consecutive superhero movies, fell into a trough, and was completely abandoned by Magic Pictures in the overall planning of comic adaptation.

In the past ten years, Streamer Films has two ace series of films that continue to bomb the box office, and they are booming; but in recent years, the two series have come to an end one after another, and they have encountered a strong counterattack from Magic Films. A crossroads for the next decade of development.

Streamer Films, which holds the copyright of a large number of comic adaptations, naturally focuses on the superhero series of works.

After going around a series of competitions, detours and debates, last year, the helm of the series of films finally finalized by the streamer film industry was the stylized Shi Wenxun.

Shi Wenxun's films have a dark and profound style, often using a large number of long shots and self-talking monologues to give the characters a more profound image, and then dig out the philosophical thinking of the story in the visual image——

Of course, Shi Wenxun is not an art director. On the contrary, he has always been a commercial director. The audience who likes him thinks that he has injected depth into commercial films; but the audience who hates him thinks that his muttering is just self-talk In other words, there is absolutely no real philosophical soul injected into the characters through plots, performances or shots~www.novelmt.com~ Streamer Films chose Shi Wenxun, which is a gamble. They hope to break the blockade of Magic Films and find a new way to give Shi Wenxun. Your own unique style of superhero movies.

Last year, Shi Wenxun's first superhero movie "Iron Hero" was officially released. The stylized images attracted polarized comments. The media reviews, delicious food, and theater ratings all failed, but the Green Bamboo score reached 7.2. This figure is comparable to a series of superhero movies from the magical film industry.

It also means that the film is recognized by veteran fans.

Moreover, the box office performance of the movie was lower than expected, but the streamer film industry still basically achieved a balance of payments, so they strengthened their confidence in continuing to use Shi Wenxun.

Shi Wenxun was appointed as the chief producer of the entire streamer film superhero movie series project, with great power.

And now-

"Shi Wenxun appointed you."
