Cultivator Returns to the City

Xiaoman sat on Yin Xiu's shoulders, holding the glasses in front of his eyes with two small paws, staring at the big screen in front of him without blinking.

Although it doesn't understand English, it doesn't understand the subtitles above.

However, the first time to experience such a 3D effect, Xiaoman was still very excited. The big fluffy tail swayed from time to time. He couldn't help turning his head and screamed 'Garji' at Yin Xiu, and stretched out a small paw to point in front of him. The screen seems to be saying something to Yin Xiu.

The sound was not loud, but Xiaoman's cry still caught the attention of the people around him. Hearing this strange cry, they couldn't help but look sideways.

Fortunately, it was dark in the movie hall at this time, and he couldn't see clearly, so Yin Xiu hurriedly 'shush' to Xiaoman, making him quiet and stop screaming.

Xiaoman obediently didn't call again, and continued to turn her head to watch the movie.

Yin Xiu himself also put his attention back on the screen...

Ji Xueqing and Jiang Shun each held a bucket of popcorn and stuffed one into their mouths from time to time, their eyes always on the screen.

After more than two hours, the film finally ended.

After the end of the film, before the lights in the movie hall came on, Yin Xiu let Xiaoman get into his trouser pocket, so as not to attract onlookers...

Huh, it's over, let's go... As the lights in the movie hall turned on, Jiang Huan stood up.

Most of the people in the movie hall also stood up one after another, and there was a whisper of discussions, basically discussing the content of the movie just watched.

Yin Xiu roughly listened to it, and it seemed that most people were satisfied with the movie just now.

After a while, Yin Xiu, Ji Xueqing, and Jiang Shun left the stage together and walked out of the theater. After returning the 3D glasses to the staff at the door and asking for the 20 yuan deposit, the three left the studio.

Although it was already early six o'clock, it was still very early in the summer, and the sun had not yet set.

Yin Xiu, what do you think of the movie just now? Does the 3D effect feel good? Jiang Shank asked.

Yin Xiu smiled, nodded and said, Well, it's alright. The 3D effect is really immersive, and the picture is very fine and beautiful. However, the plot is weaker, very simple and old. set.

That's right. Jiang Shuang smiled and said, This kind of Hollywood blockbuster itself is mainly about special effects, and the plot has always been the 'weakness' of Hollywood commercial movies.

Well, that's right. Now this kind of commercial film is the mainstream of the film market. If the plot is too complicated, the audience may not buy it. Most of the people watching movies are just for fun and leisure. It doesn't take too much brains to watch movies like this. A commercial film that can be understood by thinking is the one that is easily accepted by the audience.”

Ji Xueqing said.

Yeah, that's right. Yin Xiu nodded, Watching a movie in the theater, if the plot is too complicated, it will make the audience look tired. It's really not pleasing.

Yeah, that's the truth. That's why simple and direct commercial films are the mainstream in theaters now. Ji Xueqing replied.

Yin Xiudao: It seems that it is not unreasonable for Hollywood commercial films to be popular in China. They really grasp the essence of the market, and the special effects are really good. But...

But what?

Yin Xiu smiled and said, I just feel that the fighting power of the so-called superheroes inside is too weak.

Do you think the superheroes in the movie just now are still weak? Jiang Shun looked at Yin Xiu in surprise.

Yeah. Yin Xiu nodded and said, I really feel very weak. Those superheroes who are just 'transformed' from ordinary people are just fine. That Thor, since it is the so-called Protoss, it is still among the Protoss. The top-level existence, the combat power shown in the film is really too weak.

Yin Xiu really thinks so. If the top powerhouse in the Protoss only has the fighting power shown in the film, Yin Xiu thinks it is really weak.

Of course, the movie is just a movie after all, and it cannot be measured by his concept of power as a cultivator.

What you said is true. There is indeed a problem with the setting of Thor's power. It should be deliberately weakened to a level similar to other superheroes because of the need for the plot. Jiang Shandao said. On this point, she quite agrees with Yin Xiu's words.

Ji Xueqing said: Isn't this kind of superhero series in Hollywood? If you look closely, many aspects of the plot and characters may not stand up to the scrutiny. The audience's focus will not be on these aspects, so even if the film itself It has a lot of flaws, but it still sells well all over the world.”

This is where Hollywood commercial films are powerful. Not only does it crush everything in the English-speaking area, but it can also be popular in other non-English-speaking areas, such as China. Speaking of which, although the box office of China's movies has continued to rise significantly in recent years, But nearly half of all of them are taken in by foreign Hollywood movies.”

Jiang Huan sighed slightly.

Yeah, our Huaxia movies can only rely on some comedies, action movies, etc. to support the scene, but it's hard to see big-selling special effects movies. Ji Xueqing couldn't help but sigh.

This is the status quo of Huaxia movies.

Jiang Shun, who is half of the entertainment industry, feels more deeply about this. There is no way. The current situation of our film industry in China is like this. Even if there are occasional so-called big investments and big productions, most of the investment is actually spent. on those movie stars.

Even if there is an investment of 100 million yuan, most of the remuneration for the participating stars will be spent, and there will be 30 to 50 million yuan left. What kind of top-level special effects can be made? Besides, this is only Huaxia coins. , it is incomparable with the value of the US dollar, and the gap can be imagined. It is no wonder that China's film and television dramas are always complained about 'fifty cents special effects'...

Hey, I really hope that one day our own movies in China will be comparable to these big commercial productions in Hollywood. Ji Xueqing said with emotion.

After decades of development, Huaxia has improved in all aspects, but the gap with the Western world is still obvious in many fields, including film and television.

Our special effects production capabilities in China should be no less than Hollywood's, right? Yin Xiudao.

Jiang Shun nodded, If you are willing to spend a lot of money on special effects, it will not be inferior to Hollywood by much. But the key is that very few people are willing to spend so much money on special effects.

If special effects take up too much investment, then the amount of remuneration left to the actors will naturally be reduced accordingly, so that you can't find any superstars with top appeal. Which movie star with good box office appeal is not worth the money. tens of millions.

If we don't wait for our company to develop in the future and have sufficient funds, we can find someone to invest in a special special effects production that belongs to us. At that time, we will spend all the money that should be spent on special effects, as for the actors. , just find some powerful factions with sufficient acting skills...

Yin Xiu said half-jokingly.

Jiang Huan said: What about the box office? Without big names joining, the movie's box office is worrying.

Yin Xiu shrugged and said, It depends on the investor's opinion. Anyway, in my opinion, you don't need to care so much about the box office. It is necessary to care too much. As long as you work hard to make a commendable work, you will lose if you lose.

Yin Xiu doesn't care about money at all. Even if he really invests in filming in the future and makes money and loses money, he won't take it to heart.

Of course, this is just what he said. As for whether he really wants to make a movie in the future, only God knows.

Jiang Huan laughed 'giggling' and said, Then I can wait for your two companies to develop as soon as possible, and if you really do make a big production, as investors, you have to leave me a role!

Ji Xueqing couldn't help laughing when she heard the words, and said: Okay, if our company can really develop, we will definitely invest in a big production movie. The heroine of the movie will be handed over to you, so ah, you can get Improve your acting skills well, but don't be criticized for not being able to perform well at that time, lol...
