Chapter 430 A big lie? Unusual
According to what Wei Fei said, there is at least a market for literary and artistic films, but there is really no market for such sci-fi films.
The market here means that the audience is really hurt.
You have to know that although literary and artistic films have always been a niche in recent years, they have always had an audience base. More importantly, there are many good literary and artistic films, which is also the reason why they have an audience.
But science fiction movies cannot do that. "The Fall of the Devil" directly closed the door to science fiction movies.
Then there are some science fiction movies made by those who don’t believe in evil, and one of them is said to be a blockbuster.
As for low-cost science fiction movies, let alone them, they are more soft science fiction than science fiction movies.
Or maybe just a little bit of science fiction.
In addition, just like Lin Xing disagrees with saying that "Going to Heaven" is a literary film, in fact, most viewers also do not think that science fiction movies in recent years are science fiction movies.
Moreover, many science fiction movies dare not call themselves science fiction movies.
Because science fiction movies often mean bad movies.
For this reason, you know why even Liang Yuan is not optimistic about this script, and even Wei Fei also thinks it is undesirable.
She just mentioned it in passing.
“This Sun Feng is really good.”
Before Lin Xing could speak, Xin Hui was already a little angry: “I told him about this science fiction movie and Lao Liang We didn’t even invest, we are not really stupid and have too much money, but this guy came to the celebration party..."
Liang Yuan also smiled bitterly and said: "I think I have made it clear enough to Sun Feng just now, but I really didn't expect this guy to be so persistent."
"Science fiction??"
Lin Xing's eyes suddenly lit up: "Don't tell me that I have Jiren has received a lot of scripts, but most of them are urban and even literary-style. There are really no science fiction scripts."
For Lin Xing, he just talked to everyone. We talked about this in chat, he can’t always make art films.
Many people in the outside world think that Lin Xing likes literary films. Otherwise, why did he make three literary films in a row? ?
But only Lin Xing knew that this was just because the script was relatively good.
What’s more, even in the film industry, there are no other scripts for Lin Xing.
Just like the script "Sunspot", regardless of the fact that it is a literary film, this pie was also a big pie at the beginning.
Let’s not talk about actors who make literary films. Who wouldn’t want to compete with other actors? ?
As for "Going to Heaven", not to mention, Lin Xing really liked this script.
A few days ago, Ding Chunling complained to Lin Xing that now all the scripts are literary films, and they are all niche.
It seems that these people think that Lin Xing likes to act in a niche.
Not only that, these people actually have an unrealistic dream, that is, if their script can be liked by Lin Xing, and then Lin Xing will also attract investment in various ways, then they can also Explosive.
Not to mention a script written like this.
Basically, the more garbage there is, the more garbage there is.
According to what Xin Hui and Liang Yuan said, they really treat Lin Xing as a fool with a lot of money.
Of course, for Ding Chunling, she has really read almost a few scripts. It would be fine if the script is good, but the script is really bad.
Even these scripts have not reached Lin Xing's hands.
Lin Xing has read a few scripts recently, all of which were entrusted by acquaintances like Wei Fei.
But what to say? ? ?
These scripts are indeed not very good.
Because as I said before, Lin Xing doesn’t just want to act in artistic films, but other types of themes don’t look good either.
This is Lin Xing’s most helpless situation.
It is not easy to find a good script. Of course, Lin Xing also understands that in many cases, a good script may not necessarily lead to a good movie or TV series.
But at least your script must pass the test.
Only when a script passes the test can a good drama be produced.
Because of this, Lin Xing will ask whether everyone thinks "Going to Heaven" is too niche. Even "Going to Heaven" is a script that no one pays attention to, but Lin Xing thinks that this script is completed. Very good.
Facts have indeed proved that Lin Xing is right.
But in the eyes of many people, this kind of good luck cannot always exist.
Besides, how can there be so many Midas touch to turn gold into gold? ? ?
To put it bluntly, if Lin Xing really has the ability to make a science fiction movie worth 3 billion? ? ?
How is that possible? ? ?
So, Wei Fei was embarrassed to mention this. Seeing that Lin Xing was really interested, she quickly said: "Axing, you can read the script, but I really hope you will do it." Calm down."
Not only Wei Fei, but also Liang Yuan said: "Yes. , Brother Xing, this "Death on Earth" is an online novel, but it is quite niche even in the online literary circle. Although there are some die-hard fans, it is not really popular."
" It’s okay, I’m just reading the script.”
Lin Xing waved his hand slightly and said: "Sister Fei, please call Sun Feng over here. No matter what, we have to meet."
"Okay."
Wei Feiqing With a slight nod, she waved directly to Sun Feng, who was staring in the distance. "Hello, Teacher Lin, I am Sun Feng..."
Sun Feng came to Lin Xing and hurriedly came over, and then introduced him quickly.
"Director Sun, you're welcome, just call me Ah Xing."
Lin Xing said with a smile at this time: "Sister Fei just said that you want to make science fiction??"
"Yes, I have always wanted to make science fiction. I think there are actually a large number of science fiction fans in China, and I We have quite a lot of science fiction novels, and even science fiction online articles are very imaginative, but with a population of more than one billion, we can’t make a good science fiction movie. Don’t you think this is a waste of time? Such an extreme failure? "
Sun Feng said to Lin Xing at this time.
"Director Sun, there is no need for this. You don't have to use the same tricks to fool investors. Don't we, with a population of more than one billion, still have enough people to play football well? Even basketball. I think I’m about to die..."
Lin Xing waved his hand slightly and said: "If you are the one chatting, then I really think there is no need for us to chat anymore."
What nonsense? ? ?
It is better to say that you make movies for the sake of becoming famous than for you to say that you make movies for the so-called dream.
Because dreams are too virtual.
The more important thing is that it doesn’t matter if you use your own money to realize your dream, but it’s fucked up if you use investors’ money to pay for your dream.
Just like many directors, they say that I just want to shoot something high-brow, or even say that I don’t want to shoot something that is too monotonous.
But you are taking investors’ money, shouldn’t you be responsible to investors? ?
If Sun Feng only uses this painting cake, then Lin Xing really doesn’t want to talk about it.
"Teacher Lin, I really think so, you can take a look at my script, not just the script, you can take another look..."
Sun Feng put himself at this time Everything he has done over the years and even why he wanted to film "Death on Earth" was told.
"I think the failure of "The Fall" was because we just wanted to make a Hollywood-style blockbuster. We didn't learn from Hollywood, we were assimilated by Hollywood, or PUA by them, but Hollywood individuals Heroism does not work here, we have collectivism, if one party is in trouble, all parties will support..."
Sun Feng said: "As for "Death on Earth", it is actually about collectivism and the unity of everyone when facing difficulties. These are our Chinese narrative style, and I think this It's really possible to adapt a movie into a script..."
You have to admit that what Sun Feng said makes sense.
Especially because he sincerely seems to want to make a science fiction movie, but he is not just passionate, or he made it with chicken blood.
On the contrary, he has been waiting for 8 years, which means that he has been holding his breath since "The Fall of the Magic City".
Others at the dinner table were not too impressed.
After all, what haven’t you seen in this online circle? ? ?
What's more, in many cases, good results are not guaranteed if you work hard. Aren't everyone still angry? ? ?
Take Wang Lu for example, if she hadn't been thrust into "Going to Heaven" by Lin Xing, would she have wanted to make a movie? ?
That’s really nonsense.
Other than that, there are others who are pretty much the same.
More importantly, who doesn’t have dreams? ?
But one year, two years, three years, four years, how many years can your dream last for you? ? ?
This thing cannot be eaten as food.
Go and see Hengdian, or go and see the graduates from the three major film schools. How many of them are still actors? ?
When I graduate, I am not told that I must persevere. I can persevere for the rest of my life for my dream of becoming an actor.
But if you look at it ten years later, how many people have changed careers? ?
In the same way, Sun Feng wants to make science fiction movies in the same way. You say you persist, you say it’s not easy, you say you do it for your dream, but as Lin Xing said, investment People don't care at all.
Investors only care about one thing, whether they can make profits and whether they can make money.
But Lin Xing is not such an investor. He really felt that Sun Feng was deceiving him just now, but after hearing some of Sun Feng’s thoughts on science fiction and his knowledge of movies, especially this script Lin Xing can still feel Sun Feng's love for science fiction.
"In this case, I haven't read the novel "Death on Earth" yet, and I haven't read the script yet, so I'll talk to you after I read it first..."
Lin Xing finally said to Sun Feng.
Sun Feng said: "No rush, no rush, Teacher Lin, just let me know when you finish reading it, I..."
"Let's add a WeChat account... "
Lin Xing interrupted Sun Feng and said: "Because I have to film a movie next, so it will take half a month anyway. I will decide whether to take it or not after watching it in half a month..."
< br>
Sun Feng was originally thinking about how to add Lin Xing's WeChat account, but now, Lin Xing actually took the initiative to add his own WeChat account.
And it seems that Lin Xing might actually be interested in this movie.
Half an hour later, Sun Feng left. Of course, he was carried out.
Xin Hui felt that Sun Feng was a big liar and ruined Lin Xing’s celebration party, so he drank wine from Sun Feng.
Originally Lin Xing stopped him, but Sun Feng was really happy today.
Can you believe it? ? ?
This is the first time that Sun Feng has met an artist who is interested in this script, and this artist is actually Lin Xing.
You must know that Lin Xingke is not just an artist, he is also the boss. After all, he often brings investments.
