In the Beginning, I Just Wanted to Make Money

Chapter 613 Crushing Game

The draft of "Become Famous" has long been sprinkled...

Basically it's all flattery.

In fact, not all of them are drafts, many of them are real feedback from the newspaper.

"Shen Xudong is really great. The puzzle in "Famous" is actually not confusing, and the case itself is also very ordinary. But his cleverness is that the suspense film has been completely transformed into a comedy, and the style has been established.

The great thing about Shen Xudong is that every time he feels that the script cannot be advanced and has no way out, it keeps making twists and turns. The first self-written and directed movie has a high degree of completion! ’——"BJ Morning News"

‘Only people who really like movies can make this film! Only people who know enough about the film industry can make a film... At the end, you think you are a conscientious artist and you are willing to tell the truth, but is what you call the truth the truth? Full marks for black humor! '--"See a movie"

The report from Southern Metropolis Daily was the most specific. It actually opened a movie review on Page A: ‘What are the criteria for an excellent movie?

Story, actors and core...

"Famous" is undoubtedly an excellent movie!

In fact, Shen Xudong himself is a top screenwriter, so if he wants to make a movie, it must be a work with an attractive story. On the surface, "Famous" is the birth of a movie. This is also the main line of the whole film, and thus creates a A secret room environment that is particularly suitable for telling this type of story - when the door lock of the villa is locked, the film investor Lu Ziye becomes the creator of the secret room. He created this secret room to shoot a blockbuster blockbuster movie. "The Case of the Three Elders", and the mystery of the "The Case of the Three Elders" has also become a scene within the movie! ’

'About the three old cases...'

The whole article is a bit long. The part that praises the good story takes up more than a thousand words, and the following paragraph praises the choice of actors.

'The actors are all mainland actors. If you really talk about commercial value and appeal, they are definitely not as good as Want to Go and the Stars, but they are very suitable, especially the director Feng Xiaogang... It really achieved amazing results. "

Basically everyone is praising the story for telling it well!

Well, although there were some negative arguments, they were quickly submerged in the face of the overall trend.

It deserves rave reviews.

Shen Xudong is a Chinese opera major. Although he is a cross-border director, he is not a cross-border player. The attitude towards him by film critics, media, and industry insiders is definitely different from that of Guo Jingming in later generations...

This was true for the print media, and "Famous" was directly praised online.

‘The killer tells a story, the movie tells a story, and reality is hiding a story. It’s really a creepy feeling! ’

‘Xudong is so awesome, I knew he wouldn’t let me down! ’

‘I feel like everyone is ridiculing me: the penniless investor, the famous director of bad movies, the celebrities who have gone out of fashion, the actresses who are deeply involved in scandals, and the niche students who exaggerate. Topics that I dare not touch, forces that I am powerless to fight against. The most ironic thing is that even if this group of people really changed their minds and united as one in the end, they still made a bad movie... The most pitiable thing is the screenwriter. After the movie is finished, he understands what happened. ’

"I always feel that Feng Xiaogang's phrase 'In the most difficult moment, I let everyone have food to eat' is a metaphor for a certain director, but I don't know who it is..."

“The next road show is coming to Guangzhou, let my friends in Guangzhou ask!”

Well, "Famous" has indeed enjoyed phenomenal exposure and popularity. The crew hosted eight roadshows in Guangzhou, and the venues were full, and the audience also enthusiastically asked questions...

"Xudong, who is the metaphor of 'I let everyone have food to eat'?"

"Director Wang Jing, he often said, 'You say I make bad movies. When Hong Kong movies were in the most difficult time, I insisted on turning on the film so that everyone could eat!'"

"Then what's the point of 'let's get something'?"

"I heard a lot of rumors from the Hong Kong film industry in Jiahe. I heard that one day during the filming of "A Better Tomorrow", Zhou Runfa was late. Ti Lung saw it and was a little unhappy. Ti Lung said something to Zhou Runfa, and Zhou Runfa responded with a playful smile. Sentence: "Brother Long, let's make some money...I heard that Zhou Runfa was filming four movies at the same time..."

Speaking of this, Shen Xudong looked serious: "This is true. I can't just make something up!"

Well, no one questions it. After all, filming several movies at the same time is considered to be dedication and hard work at this stage, rather than a drama...

"...Is it true that 'the content of the movie should not be related to politics and military affairs'?"

Shen Xudong nodded: "To be honest, I told you, I have considered every line in "Famous" and I will never write it randomly!"

And so on, Shen Xudong answered all questions. After the road show, he returned to the hotel and had to accept an exclusive interview with the TV station...

Room, no, I should say the hotel restaurant.

Da Tiantian was eating, and while eating, she sighed: "...Wow, Director Shen is so hard, he still has to be interviewed!"

"...Movie promotion is inherently physical work, and compared to actors, it is harder for directors, because directors have to go to every stop... Come and eat, we have to go to Shenzhen tomorrow..." At this point, Wu Jing glanced at Shen Teng: "Are you okay?"

Shen Teng was lying on the sofa, not wanting to move: "I'm fine... I'm just tired!"

"...You are not strong enough...lack of exercise..."

"I checked the itinerary. I will go to Shenzhen tomorrow, fly to Wuhan in the afternoon, go to Changsha tomorrow afternoon...fly to Chengdu the day after tomorrow...it's like a flying trapeze!"

Wu Jing smiled: "That's why you want to eat something. Come on, Tiantian has come to eat, so you can come too!"

Although Shen Teng didn't want to eat, he didn't want to listen to Wu Jing's nagging. He got up with difficulty, came to the dining table, and turned to look at Huang Bin who was playing with the computer: "...Brother Huang, you don't want to eat?"

"...We have already eaten, please leave us alone..."

Huang Bin replied casually, and then continued to browse the news...

Shen Xudong doesn't care at all about "The Iron Triangle" in the same period, but Huang Bin, as a distributor and publicist, must pay attention to it - from the book point of view, "The Iron Triangle" is not weak, with three major directors and a star-studded cast: Louis Koo , Simon Yam, Sun Honglei, Lin Xilei, Lin Jiadong...

The theater chain has given 30% of the film schedule!

However, Sina, including NetEase, have very few special reports on "Iron Triangle", so I will mention it when reporting on "Famous"...

Well, there are actually reports, and they are basically ‘poor reputation’, ‘plot fragmentation’ and the like.

Again, even after more than ten years, it still feels like rubbish. However, the three directors don't care. They have achieved their goal by having fun this time.

Very artist-like, spending other people's money and doing your best!

As I was watching, a message came from my cell phone: ""The Iron Triangle" was a huge hit on the first day, and the attendance rate was not as good as "The Ugly Girl's Comeback"..."

It was sent by the person in charge of Jiahe.

Huang Bin... was a little surprised that the attendance rate was not as good as that of a Korean movie?

This is too embarrassing!

"Eat them all..."
