New Age Artists

Chapter 398: Boss Shen Santong, the first scene (23)

Shen Sandong: "It's been more than ten years since "Party A and Party B" was released, and more than seven years since "Hero" was released."

"Our development is changing year by year."

"There are more and more movies, but there are fewer good quality movies in the cinema, so we have to compete with Hollywood in the summer."

"Everyone is flocking to the Lunar New Year period. Last year, there were three big movies during the Lunar New Year period. It was very crowded."

"The movie ticket warehouses are in first- and second-tier cities, and our urbanization level is very fast."

"The living environment in cities is not like that in rural areas in the past, where every household and their relatives and friends live very close to each other, making it relatively convenient to visit relatives and friends."

"In cities, the entertainment during the Spring Festival is not as rich as in rural areas. There is a cultural need, and this is the opportunity of the Spring Festival period."

"Movies are first and foremost cultural commodities. If there is a demand, we will supply them."

"During the Spring Festival, the whole family or a couple goes to see a movie to entertain themselves. To some extent, this can become a new New Year custom in urban life."

"The best time for the Lunar New Year holiday is Christmas Eve, which is half a month or even more than a month away from the Spring Festival. It is entirely possible to make it into two periods."

"This drama has been scheduled to be released on January 1 next year, a week before the Spring Festival. I plan to use three to four movies to make the Spring Festival schedule."

"Like I said when my first play, Supermarket, was released, I would like to be the first to appear."

"This time, I'll say it again. I'm willing to be the first to climb!"

"The Spring Festival is the most important festival of the year for us. It is the time to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new. Such a festival should be the biggest, best and most powerful film schedule. It can also be our biggest, best and most powerful film schedule."

"If this play doesn't work, then do the next one. If two plays don't work, then do the third one."

This is the first time that Shen Santong has explained the concept of the Spring Festival period in public.

Several actresses who had heard of the concept of the Spring Festival period before couldn't help but tighten their thighs.

Handsome!
Shen Santong is so handsome!

Stand at the height of the film industry to promote something.

With every gesture, the aura of an industry tycoon instantly filled the actress' heart.

There was a feeling of being conquered by Shen Santong from a distance.

The main creators were also very excited.

Creating a Spring Festival period comparable to the New Year's Day period is a major event that will directly drive the development of the entire film industry.

Today is not 97 when "Party A and Party B" was released, nor is it 02 when "Hero" was released. The rules of the film industry now have a framework, and it is extremely difficult to be innovative.

Shen Santong just wants to do difficult things!
Even though we know it is difficult, we still have to do it.

So ambitious and energetic.

The main creators had more or less heard some rumors, but the reporters present heard it for the first time.

They were all shocked!

There is so much information revealed in Shen Santong's words!

It directly traces back to the Chinese New Year movie season, from Hong Kong films to domestic films, there is a momentum to open a new chapter!

The definition of the Spring Festival period is that it is the biggest, the best and the strongest. It should surpass the summer vacation period and the New Year period in one fell swoop and become the largest period.

There was a reporter who had been dealing with Shen Santong for many years and was present when "Supermarket" was released.

At this moment, looking at the young people on the stage who have shed some of their immaturity, I feel a sigh in my heart.

More than three years have passed.

The young man back then hasn't changed a bit.

The debut of his first film was such a sensation in the industry.

Now I can say that I have a successful career and can even say “I am willing to be the first to climb the mountain”.

No matter how you look at it, Shen Santong is indeed a new force in the film and entertainment industries.

The whole industry is experiencing a different atmosphere than before.

The reporters then asked some more questions, such as the cooperation with Wang Baoqiang again and the theme of the movie.

Shen Santong answered several questions in succession, and then asked the reporters not to focus on him but to ask other creators instead.

While Shen Santong was speaking, he was also observing everyone's reactions.

I glanced around quietly and was very satisfied.

The high-profile announcement of the Spring Festival schedule is not only to build momentum in advance, but also to further control the crew.

To this day, Shen Santong has enough prestige to not have to worry about the crew getting out of control, and no one dares to cause trouble in front of him.

However, having a grand goal as a driving force can motivate the creative team of the crew to a greater extent.

Ok?
Shen Santong found something wrong. Several actresses looked at him with a somewhat dazed look, which frightened him so much that he sat up straight.

It was at this time that Shen Santong discovered that he had been friends with almost all the main female characters in the crew.

Too much!
This situation has never happened in the crew before, but Shen Santong has found that his desire has been a little strong recently.

Take this as a warning and never do this again next time!
The press conference ended and the producer came out to clear the room.

Shen Santong entered the set. There were too many friends in this crew, so he had to show his authority: "Get ready, let's start the first scene."

The first scene of "Lost on Journey" begins!
The original version tells the story of the Spring Festival approaching, and the boss of the doll group, Li Chenggong, returns to Changsha to celebrate the New Year.

At the same time, under the pressure of his lover Manni, he prepared to divorce his wife after the New Year.

As a result, after meeting Niu Geng, a "senior" milker who was going to Changsha to collect debts at the airport, bad luck continued.

As fate would have it, Niu Geng bumped into Li Chenggong unexpectedly along the way.

The two encountered many embarrassing situations on the way and encountered all kinds of people and strange things, which made Li Chenggong embarrassed and his noble image was gone. However, Niu Geng did not care and remained optimistic and positive.

In order to get home, the two of them traveled together. They changed various modes of transportation on their way home.

They took planes, trains, buses, ferries, trucks, and even tractors, but the two still spent New Year's Eve in the wilderness.

Looking back on the hardships along the way and the people and things they encountered along the way, it had a profound impact on the lives of both of them.

finally.

As the two went from strangers to friends, Niu Geng's sincerity changed Li Chenggong's indifferent character and aroused Li Chenggong's return to true love.

Shen Santong has now learned to see the advantages.

The original version was very successful, with a cost of 700 million and a box office of million.

"Lost in Thailand" by Xu Guangtou is based on "Lost on Journey", but he didn't get the copyright for the sequel, so he made it himself.

Copyright is a big issue, no doubt about it, it is a fatal flaw.

However, some people argue that "Lost on Journey" is better than "Lost in Thailand", but Shen Santong disagrees.

The scene alone is a fatal flaw of "Lost on Journey".

The previous incarnation of "Lost on Journey" was filmed in January 10.

Say something.

Just looking at the movie scenes, it's pretty accurate to say it was filmed in 01.

I don’t know whether the Hong Kong director did it on purpose or accidentally, but many of the scenes he chose make people feel uncomfortable.

To put it bluntly, it's filled with stares and discrimination.

Even if "Lost on Journey" is released a few years later, it is unlikely to have phenomenal box office results.

As time goes by, the audience becomes more sensitive to this aspect.

It is not ruled out that some audiences like it, but mainstream audiences may feel uncomfortable.

This discomfort will be directly reflected in the box office.

This is the root cause of the box office ceiling for Hong Kong filmmakers.

Rather than saying that there is a problem with the plot, it is actually a problem with the perspective, or you can say the stance.

The stance determines the perspective, the direction of the plot, the scene selection, the props, and the final editing.

This stance is not necessarily confrontational or hostile; it can also include looking down on and gazing at others.

The villains in "The Poisonous Lawyer" use the names of Zhong Nianhua and Dong Weiguo. It can be released in mainland China and make over 100 million yuan.

I can only say that mainland audiences are tolerant enough.

Some people are complaining about why "Sherlock Holmes" was a huge hit in Hong Kong but had a cold box office in mainland China.

Are you pretending not to understand?
Just giving the villain a name like this, what's the point of asking?

It can still exceed 100 million, thanks to the real freedom in mainland China.

Otherwise your head will be blown off.

Putting aside the various vicious mentalities such as gnashing of teeth, darkness, dampness, viciousness, and baring of fangs, let's talk about the issue of rationality.

Zhong Nianhua is a girl from a wealthy family. The Zhong family is a powerful family that is all-powerful and will do anything to get what it wants.

He is good at using dirty tricks and can mobilize the power of the media, police, and judicial circles.

Dong Weiguo is the Zhong family’s legal advisor and personal lawyer.

With this kind of background, would one use a Chinese name in Hong Kong Island?

Is it reasonable to use Chinese names like "Nianhua" and "Weiguo"?
The main creator is against it, but he is unwilling to oppose it openly.

It feels so gloomy. Don't you feel uncomfortable?
The producer of "The Poisonous Tongue Lawyer" is Jiang Zhiqiang.

The first scene of Shen Santong's "Lost on Journey" is to state the theme.

Before filming began, he rewrote the script and included the snowstorm.

After the snowstorm, Shen Santong reviewed the play and found that Lost on Journey was obviously inspired by the snowstorm, but he deliberately avoided it.

Shen Santong did not evade.

The first scene is about the armed police soldiers who are fighting against the earthquake and rushing to the front line of disaster relief.
