Seclusion in the Entertainment Industry

Seeing the box office success of the two films "Racing" and "Shark Tank", some people were jealous, some were happy, some felt it didn't matter, and some were very eager to join Chen Feng's circle , so that we can get a share of the pie in the future.

After all, starting from "Crazy Stone", to "Infernal Affairs", and then to "Racing" and "Shark Beach", each of these four movies has been very successful, both in terms of box office performance and word-of-mouth evaluation. .

It is rare to see investors like this in the Chinese film market!

In less than two years, Chen Feng earned hundreds of millions by relying on film investment!

From a bassist who was abandoned by the band, to a gold medal music producer, to a film investor who has repeatedly created miracles, this development path is really incredible.

However, the more famous Chen Feng became, the less he showed up.

Because now he is still busy on the crew of "The Wandering Earth".

The success of "Crazy Racing" and "Shark Beach" was actually somewhat within his expectations, especially for "Crazy Racing". Ni Hao has always kept in touch with him, and they have even made an appointment to wait for Ni Hao After finishing working on his own movie, he also wanted to go to the crew of "The Wandering Earth" to help out.

After all, Ni Hao has a lot of experience as a director. With him here, he can provide some help.

In addition to Ni Hao, Li Ziqiang's Shushan Pictures also has very close ties with Chen Feng.

Thanks to Chen Feng's matchmaking, Shushan Pictures also invested in Ni Hao's "Crazy Racing". After seeing the box office hit of this film, Li Ziqiang was naturally very happy. In addition, "The Wandering Earth" also has his share, so the relationship between Chen Feng and him is getting closer and closer.

Shushan Cinema, a subsidiary of Shushan Film Industry, has begun to expand its presence in many cities across the country. Although the Shushan cinema chain system still occupies a small share of the entire film market, it has been in the process of growth and development.

Moreover, recently on the Internet and in reality, the brand of Shushan Cinema has become more and more widely known. After all, it focuses on mid-to-high-end entertainment services, and the movie-watching experience at Shushan Cinema is indeed better than that of ordinary cinemas, so the audience and movie fans As long as we have the conditions, we still like to go to Shushan Cinema.

Taking this time's "Dragon" as an example, some movie fans found after comparison that the hardware level of Shushan Cinema is much better than that of many other ordinary theaters. Some shots that look blurry in ordinary theaters are not visible in ordinary theaters. The effect in Shushan Cinema is actually a little better.

And those scenes in the dark night and storm,

Watching it in Shushan Cinema, the screen brightness will be better.

These are actually differences in hardware levels.

Although "Dragon" itself is a bit of a cheesy special effects monster movie, under the same source quality and different hardware levels, the viewing experience is still different.

Even in terms of sound effects, the sound effects of Shushan Cinema are more comfortable.

This is the advantage of Shushan Cinema!

Chen Feng also knew something about this. Li Ziqiang showed him some internal research reports. Chen Feng felt that Shushan Cinema was on the right path.

"Now the movie "Dragon" is inherently bad. Although there are some differences in the viewing experience, it is not enough for movie fans to pay too much attention. Once a better quality 3D blockbuster with special effects is released, the viewing experience will be The gap will further widen, and in the end it may even directly affect the audience’s choice.”

This is Chen Feng's judgment.

Li Ziqiang also deeply agrees with this.

"Well, our Shushan Cinema will continue to increase investment in new technologies. In addition, in the second half of the year, we will invest in the construction of 30 new cinemas in another 13 cities. By the end of the year, we will be able to account for the entire More than 20% of the market share!”

Li Ziqiang said with confidence.

In this regard, Chen Feng has nothing to say. When it comes to the construction of theaters, he doesn't know anything about it. However, according to the development prospects of the entire industry, at least the general direction will not go wrong.

…

Most of these miscellaneous things were handled by Chen Feng in his spare time, but his real energy was still devoted to "The Wandering Earth".

As the entire crew gradually got into the mood, although the filming progress was accelerated, the filming of "The Wandering Earth" must have been very slow compared to ordinary film productions.

Everyone in the crew has worked very hard, but because there are so many aspects involved, it is impossible to do it quickly even if we want to.

Especially as the filming progress increases, more and more problems are discovered. For example, some plot designs are really impossible to film with the current technology.

Even if it is done reluctantly, the effect will not be very good, and it will eventually affect the effect of the finished film.

Therefore, at this time, Chen Feng, Tian Ming, and director Dong Guofan need to come together to discuss a solution.

Either come up with a better shooting plan, or directly change the plot to avoid those scenes that cannot be shot.

Both methods require a lot of hard work to design various solutions and then choose the most suitable one, which consumes a lot of energy and time.

But problems appear one after another, so they can only be solved one after another. No one has any shortcuts.

Fortunately, these days, the shooting progress is a bit slow, but the results can still satisfy everyone.

Now everyone hopes to finally shoot this film completely, which is why everyone continues to work hard.

In fact, everyone in the "Wandering Earth" crew and actors worked very hard.

The filming of this film sometimes requires the use of many props, and even some spaceship cabins or underground city bases need to be built with real models for filming. This requires every staff member to put in their own efforts, not only to After the props and simulated scenes are built, safety must be ensured. The hard work involved is much higher than that of an ordinary crew.

It’s not easy for the actors either. There are many action scenes in this drama, and in these scenes, the actors need to wear dozens of kilograms of props and costumes to act, which consumes a lot of physical strength. Several older supporting roles Actors need to be followed by medical staff at all times, and they even need to stop and take oxygen for a while.

The conditions are so difficult.

But as the time we spent together increased, and as the filming progressed, although the staff and actors were very tired, it seemed that everyone gradually understood that we were really doing something extraordinary. matter.

Therefore, the vast majority of people persisted!

Of course, the most important thing is that Wu Hengjiang, as the boss of Beidou Entertainment, also generously raised everyone's salary, so... everyone is even more motivated!
