I have to teach the world a lesson

Chapter 749 Declaring war on Hollywood movies!

Bi Feiyu came out of the cinema.

He watched a movie...

The movie is called "Suicide Squad."

The movie is directed by and stars the famous Hollywood superstar Schwarzschild Tallon, and will be released in China in July...

After watching the movie, Bi Feiyu felt only shock deep in his heart.

In fact, this movie is in the style of the 1980s and 1990s, and the plot of the movie is not outstanding. This is the consistent style of old American movies.

But in addition to movies, special effects, explosions, gun battles, hand-to-hand combat and other scenes are all explosive...

Even though Bi Feiyu knew that everything was a movie, he was still stimulated by the action scenes of the movie, which made his adrenaline soar...

but……

After watching it, Bi Feiyu silently took a look at the Chinese movie released in 2012.

Since the movie "A Hundred Birds" won an award and caused a stir in China, in the first half of 2012, a large number of movies similar to "A Hundred Birds", which focused on the inheritance of intangible cultural heritage, flooded out.

But they are not "Hundred Birds"...

Moreover, every movie seems to be riding on the popularity, and is shot extremely impetuously just to make money in the market.

The audience, like the readers, has sharp eyes. You can say they are hard to agree on, but good is good and bad is bad...

In April 2012, this kind of movie not only failed to make the audience sympathize with it like "Birds", but was scolded so much that even parents didn't recognize it.

After April 2012, there were fewer such films in the Chinese film market.

However, the movie that replaced it seemed to be even worse.

The movie "Dwelling in the Rich Mountains" produced by the Hong Kong director and Liu Tianwang claims to have an investment of 300 million. It is the best modern Chinese action movie in China in recent years, and many big names have been invited to join the filming...

When it was first promoted, the traffic exploded, and the headlines of almost all movie pages in China were about this movie...

Then, when the movie was released, countless fans walked into the theater excitedly. The moment they saw the plot of the movie, everyone was numb.

There is a feeling of being cheated.

They suddenly realized that the trailer was the essence of the film. What the hell was this?

After May...

The Hollywood blood-sucking movie "Dark Night Rises" was launched in China. Amid bursts of exclamations, it grossed a staggering box office of 1 billion yuan!

However, Chinese movies in May were a month full of bad movies, such as "Little Fourth Generation", "Dream Chasing Entertainment Circle", "Hong Kong Director"...

Every movie requires an investment of tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions. When promoting the movie, without exception, people have to spend crazy money to buy various headlines and announcements, and even many Internet celebrity anchors of [Jitu Video], They all received invitations from these movies, and without exception they all had to pay high prices in the hope of promoting these movies, and then...

After the movie was released, many anchors were scolded by fans and were afraid to start broadcasting!

As of August.

In 2012, the total output value of Chinese films was approximately 15 billion yuan, with a total of 545 feature films produced domestically, and a total of 721 films of various types...

However, the total box office of so many movies is only 5.2 billion yuan, less than half...

When this set of data appeared in Bi Feiyu's mind, his mood suddenly became extremely heavy.

"Director Bi, are you confident that "The Truman", which will be released on October 1, will collide with the Hollywood blockbuster "The Devil"?"

"..."

"Director Bi, why don't you release the film during the Domestic Film Protection Month? I know you are an internationally renowned director, but the original novel of the film "The Demon World" ranks among the top in the field of global fantasy novels, and now it is even more so. Directed by Deng Berg, a great Hollywood director and known as the king of industrial directors, this will be serious and squeeze our production of "The Truman" to the end..."

"..."

"Director Bi, although I know that "The Truman" was born because Mr. Zhang Sheng needed more money to invest in more meaningful things, but, with all due respect... we have received a set of news that the advertisement for the film has More than 40 brands sponsor... It is originally an advertising film, it is originally a commercial film, why does it have to compete with "The Demon World"? In the Domestic Film Protection Month, isn't it good not to have any competition?"

"..."

"That's right, Director Bi, can you please answer this? China's movies this year are almost a big rout. We don't need to use an advertising movie to do personal heroism..."

"..."

August.

Pride is like fire, scorching the earth.

Cicadas chirped in the streets.

After walking out of the cinema and before getting in the car, Bi Feiyu suddenly saw countless reporters swarming towards him.

The chatter of voices was like the chirping of cicadas, making Bi Feiyu feel noisy.

"The Truman" was born until now...

It has always been very popular in the Chinese film industry.

Many well-known film critics even publicly questioned Zhang Sheng's "Just Bad Money". Although another wave of people understood Zhang Sheng's "Just Bad Money", the label of "Commercial Advertising" movie has been branded.

Especially when Bi Feiyu announced that the film would be moved to the National Day to compete with the Hollywood blockbuster "The Devil", the entire Chinese film industry was almost in an uproar!

Some people are questioning whether Bi Feiyu and Zhang Sheng are hyping up, but more people think they are crazy!

"Demon World"......

A world-renowned magical IP and one of the most popular original works!

This movie has been filming since 2010 and was directed by Deng Berg, the king of industrial directors. It cost nearly US$250 million to create a shocking masterpiece!

At the beginning of this year, Deng Berg even personally called out the director of "Avatar" and the global movie king McCaskey, claiming that as long as "The Devil" is released, "Avatar" will step down from the throne!

This is a war between directors worth tens of billions of yuan. Some people even predict that the release of "The Devil" will be recorded in the history of global movies like "Avatar"!

Under such circumstances...

"The Truman", a commercial movie that in the eyes of countless people is just bad money, suddenly announced that it would compete with "The Devil"!

Isn't this a joke?

What is this if not a popular clown?

Countless cameras and countless flashlights shone on Bi Feiyu's face, but Bi Feiyu chose to remain silent from beginning to end...

He didn't answer any questions.

…………………………………………

August 19th.

Bi Feiyu got through Zhang Sheng's "WeChat".

At this moment, Zhang Sheng had left Yanjing and went to the west where the signal was not very good.

Also following Zhang Sheng were some staff from [Yaohua Technology] and "Semiconductor Laboratory"...

On the WeChat call, Bi Feiyu looked at Zhang Sheng's calm face. After seeing that face, he seemed to have found his backbone: "Mr. Zhang, I have sent you two editions of "The Truman". Have you read it? ?”

"Didn't look..."

"ah?"

"Are you not free or..."

"I've been free recently, but I didn't read..."

"..."

In the WeChat video, Bi Feiyu's mouth trembled slightly and his face turned slightly pale: "Do you think this step of mine is very risky? Fighting against "Devil World"...are you angry..."

On the other end of the phone, Zhang Sheng smiled: "Director Bi, I have never been angry. I don't watch the finished film you sent me because I want to go to the cinema in person to witness this film... and also witness the new development of China Film." The rise of time!”

"Mr. Zhang..." When he heard this sentence, Bi Feiyu's heart trembled.

"Director Bi, this is your battlefield. In the battlefield, the protagonist will always be you, and I, or even any of the rest of us, are just a bystander, and more importantly, a cheerleading team to help you cheer..."

"..."

"Whoever you regard as your opponent, then you must have absolute confidence and go all out without regrets..."

"..."

"I don't know what the world's top IP is, and I don't know what the so-called king of global industrial movies is... I only know that after October 1, a Chinese director named Bi Feiyu will once again... Reverberate around the world!”

"Mr. Zhang, I..."

"Okay, I'm going to be busy here!"

"Okay! But Mr. Zhang..."

"You said..."

"The name of the director of this film is you... I am just one of the directors. Maybe it is not just me but you who are famous all over the world..."

"..."

Bi Feiyu said this, but the signal in WeChat was stuck and frozen. When Zhang Sheng smiled again and asked: "You said...the signal here is not good...", Bi Feiyu shook his head. .

"It's okay, Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang, don't worry, I will protect this land for you!"

"Come on! Hero!"

"..."

After hanging up the WeChat call, Bi Feiyu couldn't calm down for a long time.

He took a deep breath, looked at the bright lights of Yanjing City in the distance, and then looked to the west in the distance.

He narrowed his eyes!

bring it on!

bring it on!

Let the storm come more violently!

………………………………

The controversy over "The Truman" lasted until September, but has never subsided.

September 4th.

Bi Feiyu received a call from a leader of the China Film Association.

The Chinese Film Association invited Bi Feiyu to participate in the new round of chairman election of the [Chinese Directors Association].

Bi Feiyu dressed up to attend...

Later, when he walked into the conference room...

When he saw the nominees looking at him with smiles on their faces, he was as humble as a junior chatting with these people.

Immediately afterwards...

The moment he saw the nomination list for the new president of the Chinese Directors Association was announced, his face suddenly turned ugly.

"Why is there no Mr. Zhang!"

His face suddenly became extremely gloomy!

His voice interrupted the lively association...

Everyone looks at him!

"Why! No, Mr. Zhang!"

He stared at everyone, his voice increased, and he said this sentence almost word for word!

this moment……

The entire venue became extremely silent.

(My brain was twitching yesterday and early this morning, and now I’m back...)
