493: A Big Step?
"They haven't figured out how to play in China yet, but they're already thinking about making money overseas. They're not afraid of taking too big a step and getting hurt." Wang Cheng said this with a little bit of sourness.
"The Fast and Furious series and Kung Fu Panda have tasted the sweetness, and with three big names, Long Wei, Rocky, and Hancock, on the list, anyone would make a movie." Feng Yilun analyzed indifferently.
"Long Wei, Rocky, and Hancock have a great influence worldwide, but the movies they made in recent years have basically failed, and they are almost becoming box office poison." After being defeated by Django many times, Wang Cheng dared not confront him head-on again, and could only talk about it.
"His goal should not be to make money, but to gain popularity." Feng Yilun said.
"But it has to be a good movie." Wang Cheng said.
"Okay, okay, don't mention him." Feng Yilun ended the topic and said, "When is the preview scheduled?"
"On November 10th, there will be a small-scale preview for one day. If the reviews are good, there will be a large-scale preview for three days on November 17th." Wang Cheng said.
After their first TV series "Three Lives Three Worlds: Princess Weiyoung", their first movie "Death on the Moon" is scheduled to be released on January 1, 2026.
The preview is used to build momentum for the film and to build word of mouth for the film. Another reason is that Huafeng Media suddenly announced that "A Chinese Ghost Story 2: The Road to the Human World" will be released on New Year's Day.
This is equivalent to knowing that there are tigers in the mountain but going to the tiger mountain. We have to do everything we can.
――――――
In mid-October, because it is already late autumn, the weather will be cooler.
"Well, you decide on the matter over there."
"Okay, let's do this for now."
"Bye."
...
Jiang Ge hung up the phone. It was Mo Lan who called. As a representative of Huafeng Media, she was participating in the promotion of "The Expendables" and "I Am Legend" in the United States.
This matter is quite important. If "Fast and Furious" is the stepping stone to enter the overseas market, then these two movies are the cornerstones.
Although the Chinese movie box office is now the world's largest box office, it cannot only make money here. There are so many foreign language film resources on the earth, and it will be wasted if they are not used.
So the plan is to start with commercial films and slowly share the overseas market.
Jiang Ge collected his thoughts, put his phone on the coffee table, sat next to Zhou Lingwei, leaned over to look at the tablet screen in her hand, and asked: "Have you chosen? Hawaii? Maldives? Bali? Or..."
Zhou Lingwei leaned her head on his shoulder and sighed: "It's too difficult to choose, I'm dazzled."
They had discussed it before and decided to hold a low-key wedding in Sanya, but no matter how low-key it is, they still have to take wedding photos.
So, Zhou Lingwei looked for a list of "The Top Ten Wedding Photos in the World" on the Internet, but she was dazzled and had difficulty making a choice.
Jiang Ge smiled and said, "Then don't choose, just go to all of them."
Zhou Lingwei rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm exhausted after traveling to so many places."
She actually didn't like traveling far away, and traveling domestically was already her limit. She said, "How about... just shoot in Sanya, saving time and trouble."
Bai Meng Shu
Jiang Ge understood her and said thoughtfully, "That's fine. There are many beautiful places in our country. So, Shangri-La + Lijiang + Jiuzhaigou + Sanya, what do you think?"
Zhou Lingwei smiled and said, "It's a happy decision."
At the same time as Jiang Ge and Zhou Lingwei began their wedding photo shooting journey, the third season of "Year Hare Affair" was available online, and like the previous two seasons, all episodes were free.
On Earth, the evaluation of the rabbit has been polarized since the third season. Some people think that it has lost the previous "feeling". To put it simply, they want to see more tricks, more funny things, and more jokes. They think that this animation should be displayed as a two-dimensional work, just like watching a ramen animation or chasing a Japanese comic.
In Jiang Ge's opinion, it's actually okay, because once it is labeled "official", it is no longer just a casual animation, and naturally bears the responsibility of spreading culture and conveying history. The parts that can be relaxed and funny must be retained, and the parts that do not pass the review can only be cut.
However, his version does not have this problem. After all, this is the parallel world Blue Star, and the rabbit has been a new script since the first season.
For old fans, it may lack some of the surprises when the first season came out, but it adds heaviness and warmth, and of course, there is never absent touching.
"Ding Ge is more, Ding Ge is more, if Ding Ge doesn't update, Hua Feng will update, (??w??), everyone, please pay attention, it will be 'Hua Feng Vision' who will urge for updates from now on."
"It's good to have updates, even if it's not written by Ding Ge."
"Long live understanding, some projects should be delegated, just make sure the quality is good."
"Finally, it's time to talk about 'd' and 'j'."
"Same taste, same short!"
"The introduction of this season is a bit invincible-we have also hesitated, we have also been confused, but we have never retreated, Rabbit is always on the road to challenge the strong, and this is the strongest childhood on the ground!"
...
The barrage occupied the entire screen from the first second. uuReading
However,
When it was close to the end, everyone chose to turn off the barrage, which was the favorite part of many people, playing those old photos in the new theme song.
【――"Stars and Sea"
Singer: Qin Shih
Composer: Django
Lyricist: Django
Arranger: Django]
"I would like to become a star and guard the buzzing on the bottom of the sea..."
"Could it be that our love is like the stars guarding the sea, never leaving..."
"I am running towards you, you are the stars and the sea..."
…
Qin Shih's voice is clear and fiery, and the sincere emotion overflowing with it is thought-provoking.
There are many versions of the song "Stars and Sea", one of which is the official "Century of Construction Theme Music Version", which is very suitable for the rabbit this season.
But Django didn't use it, but used the original version. The original version was created to emphasize the feeling of worry about gains and losses in love, and the strong expectation for the lover's companionship, but this kind of emotion can also be used in the ancestors' love for the country, On top of our love for our country and the love our ancestors had for us.
The situation is different, the mood is different, and the feelings are different.
Seeing everyone's praise for "That Year of the Rabbit" and "The Sea of Stars", Jiang Ge came up with the idea of making a trilogy with the main theme, which is "The Great Cause of Building D", "The Great Cause of Building J" and "The Great Cause of Construction" on Earth. "Building a Great Cause".
"Dr. Jiang, it's time to take the photo." The photographer interrupted Jiang Ge's thoughts.
"Is the venue ready? Let's shoot then." Jiang Ge stood up from the chair, looked around, but did not see Zhou Lingwei, and said again: "I will invite our heroine."
I went to pick up Zhou Lingwei who was changing clothes, and the wedding photo shooting began.
