Originally from Hong Kong but grew up abroad, Chan returned to Hong Kong in the 80s and entered the entertainment industry.

It was the most glorious moment for Hong Kong cinema.

But the pinnacle of Hong Kong films has nothing to do with him.

When he grew up to be able to take charge of himself, Hong Kong films gradually declined.

Even during this period of time, he has made classic movies such as A Tale of Two Cities and Sweet Honey, but it has not won him much fame and status.

With the return of Hong Kong and the entry of the new century, Hong Kong films have languished, and looking north to China has become the direction of countless Hong Kong filmmakers.

It was in this trend that Chen Kexin came to the mainland, and he set up his own film studio in Beijing.

But six years have passed, and he has made a lot of movies, many of which are ambitious masterpieces, but in the end, for various reasons, the films that he is most satisfied with are not satisfactory at the box office.

Movies are a money-making business, and if you can't make money for investors, how can you make movies?

This year, he has two movies released, one is [Martial Arts] directed by him, and the other is "Gentleman Heroes" for whom he is the producer, but the two films with excellent production and star lineups ended in miserably at the box office.

For him, it was a blow and an opportunity for introspection.

What kind of movies should be made in the mainland so that the audience will like them?

He was confused and confused

Until he saw this part of the broken love for thirty-three days

Originally, he didn't plan to come to see it tonight, but a friend gave him a ticket and told him that if he wants to adapt to the mainland film market, he has to take a good look, and the main element of this film is down-to-earth.

Therefore, Chen Kexin came and watched it

Surprised

The production is excellent, this is the conscience of filmmakers, and it is regarded as a duty

But the image of the little people created in this movie is impressive, especially Zhang Wen's Wang Xiaobei.

Indeed, this film is down-to-earth

It's an element that's hard to describe in words, but it's really existing.

He liked the atmosphere created by the whole movie very much, especially when he noticed that from beginning to end, the male and female protagonists did not have even a single line of confession, but everyone felt their moisturizing and silent feelings.

This reminds Chen Kexin of the autumn fairy tale directed by Zhang Wanting in the 80s, when Hong Kong films were at their peak.

Zhou Run and Zhong Chuhong are in this film, let alone talking about love, they haven't even held hands.

is such a pure literary film, which has created a classic in the minds of countless filmmakers.

There is no doubt that thirty-three days of broken love are different from autumn fairy tales.

The former, it has a strong atmosphere of the mainland, especially the capital

After living in the capital for six years, Chen Kexin felt a kind of resonance from mainland movies for the first time

A cultural resonance

It turns out that this is called grounding

"Beautiful, wonderful"

When the movie ended and the lights in the screening room came on, Chen Kexin stood up from his seat with everyone and clapped non-stop.

There was a burst of applause.

There were even many people present who were so moved that they were dumbfounded

This is not because the movie is sensational and sprinkles dog blood, but the kind of spiritual resonance of everyone.

Zhang Wen rode a bicycle, in the majestic rain, carrying Lin Yun'er all the way home.

They are all small people, they are all slings, they can't afford to buy a car, they can't afford to buy a house.

But they can still do what they can to create their own romance

The entire screening hall burst into applause, and everyone at the scene stood up and applauded warmly.

Director Deng Huatao, with Lin Yuner, Zhang Wen and Uncle Bird and other actors, walked to the bottom of the screen and bowed to the stands to thank them.

"Director Deng, it's so exciting"

"yes, it's definitely the best movie I've seen this year"

"I didn't say it, Director Deng, this movie is absolutely popular"

"Even though it's the second time I've seen it, I'm still so moved."

"Director Deng, you have finally come out, congratulations"

"If such a good movie doesn't have a good box office, what future does Chinese film have?"

"It's amazing, it's wonderful"

"Zhang Wen is definitely the biggest highlight of this movie"

"Who's to say it isn't? He's definitely going to be on fire."

"Lin Yun'er's performance is also very talented, and she is also beautiful, and she is also popular"

"Well, this movie is released, and she must be more popular than before"

There was a bustle in the movie screening hall, and everyone was still immersed in this movie, discussing the qiē in the movie.

Yang Huan nodded towards Deng Huatao and the others with a smile, and gave a gesture of affirmation.

"This movie is wonderful, I cried when I watched it," Zhuang Ziqing blinked vigorously.

Yang Huan is also very satisfied with this movie, which is more exciting than the one he watched in his previous life.

Zhang Ning had seen it a few times before, and although he was still moved, he didn't cry.

Seeing Zhuang Ziqing crying, she took a tissue and handed it over.

"Thank you" Zhuang Ziqing took it and wiped his eyes.

She didn't wear makeup, but she wasn't afraid of wiping her face.

"Mr. Yang Huan, a very, very wonderful movie"

Someone next to him began to come over and congratulate Yang Huan.

"Thank you"

"I watched this movie and it was definitely popular, it was great"

"Come on, please continue to support Chinese films in the future"

Yang Huan smiled and shook hands with everyone one by one.

Until he saw Chen Kexin.

"Very good movie, there is hope that it can be good to Laihu, come on" Chen Kexin shook hands with Yang Huan very politely.

"Chen Kexin?" Yang Huan recognized him immediately.

"Is it really you?"

Chen Kexin didn't expect Yang Huan to have such a big reaction, and he was a little surprised.

"I like your movies, basically as long as you make them, I've seen them all, especially the Cast and the October Siege"

Yang Huan shook Chen Kexin's hand vigorously, it felt a bit like a fan meeting a star.

Chen Kexin was a little flattered, but he didn't expect that this Young Master Huan was still his fan

Actually, there was a bit of a misunderstanding in Yang Huan's words.

The name is indeed the work of director Chen Kexin, but the director of the October Siege is Chen Desen, and Chen Kexin is the producer.

However, Chen Desen left halfway for various reasons, and then Chen Kexin took over, and Chen Desen still got the title of director, but everyone generally counts this film as Chen Kexin's personal work.

"Young Master Huan, these two movies can't make money" Chen Kexin was a little embarrassed.

As the famous commercial director Wang Jing said, a very important ability of a director is to be able to help investors make money.

You can't make money, you lose one film, who would dare to vote for you?

"No, no, no, no" Yang Huan said several words in a row, correcting Chen Kexin's mistakes.

"In my opinion, what Chinese films need most is this type of high-quality film"

is also an ancient war film, and the difference between the name and the recently released military order of the female generals of the Yang Sect is like a mountain, and the gap is really not ordinary.

As for the investment budget, how much does the star lineup take up in the vote certificate?

"Are there any movies you have planned to make in the near future?" Yang Huan asked with a smile.

These words suddenly made many filmmakers around him look envious.

Young Master Huan asked, the subtext is to say, if you have anything you want to shoot, I will invest you to shoot

Chen Kexin shook his head with a wry smile and sighed, "I have lost a lot of money in several consecutive dramas recently, and I still have to adjust and re-explore the direction."

"Why?" Yang Huan was a little puzzled.

As a person who loves movies, Chen Kexin's nomination and the October siege are both very good, and at the same time they have reached a certain height on both commercial and artistic levels.

What's even more rare is that the movies he makes always have a very strong cultural atmosphere.

According to Yang Huan's understanding, he should take a bold step forward on this basis.

As long as this step is taken well, then he will also reach the peak and enter the Grandmaster Palace

In Yang Huan's previous life, countless movie lovers also felt sorry and regretful for Chen Kexin.

That's when he missed his best chance to get to the top

But whether it is from the understanding of films, or the ability to direct, or even his observation of the entire film market, he is a very good filmmaker.

Chen Kexin is still smiling bitterly, he is a person who often lives in helplessness.

"Poor box office"

Four words, but they express the bitterness of countless filmmakers.

Yes, in a commercial market where the box office determines success or failure, if you lose the box office, what if you win word of mouth?

Yang Huan couldn't agree with his mentality.

"In this way, you can help me make a movie"

"Me?" Chen Kexin was a little surprised.

"Yes, it's you, an epic commercial blockbuster"

Everyone around listened to it and became interested.

An epic commercial blockbuster?

This is the rhythm of burning money like crazy

"I want to invite the best and most suitable actors to form a star lineup, the best behind-the-scenes staff to form the most luxurious crew, and I want to make an epic commercial masterpiece unprecedented in the history of Chinese film, directed by you"

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Is this going to be an epic masterpiece?

Chen Kexin was even more shocked, this Young Master Huan also valued himself too much, right?

I

Everyone feels like they are the best in their hearts

Although Chen Kexin is low-key, he has always felt that he is the best filmmaker, but he just lacks an opportunity.

There have been two rare opportunities to prove themselves before, but they have been frustrated for various reasons.

This hit him very hard and made him a little disheartened.

But now, Yang Huan suddenly told him that he wanted to invest him in making such a movie, which really moved him

"Young Master Huan, what type of movie are you going to make? What kind of story is told? ”

Chen Kexin was excited in his heart, and immediately asked.

Some people are willing to spend so much money to invest in their own films, if they don't dare to go next, it will be too cowardly

"I haven't thought about it, what type of movie do you think is the most promising to reach the overseas market?"

Everyone around was suddenly amazed again.

This Young Master Huan's pattern is really not ordinary.

While all Chinese-language film companies are focused on China, he has already set his sights overseas.

On second thought, though, it's not surprising.

In the 33rd day of broken love, it has sold the exercise rights of South Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia and other countries and regions, and even released 6 re-releases in Europe and the United States.

Regardless of whether the box office harvest is okay or not, just for this point, people have such strength and qualifications.

"War films and science fiction films, science fiction films we are not sure to do for the time being, war movies are best modern wars"

Yang Huan thought about it and felt that it made sense, "Then take a paragraph from the War of Resistance Against Japan"

Chen Kexin listened to it and thought it was good.

A person next to him listened, but he had an idea, "I have a good mention." ”

Yang Huan looked over and was a middle-aged man in his fifties.

He didn't know him, but Chen Kexin did.

"Director Huang, it's you"

"It's me, Director Chen"

Chen Kexin immediately introduced Yang Huan, "This is director Huang Jianxin"

Huang Jianxin?

Yang Huan remembered that the red gift film was all shot by him, and he also supervised the production of the name and the October siege.

"Young Master Huan, if you want to shoot, I will build a Chinese expeditionary force, which tells the story of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, when our squadron sent 100,000 elite troops at the request of Britain and the United States to expedition to Burma, resist the Japanese army, and rescue the British army."

With just one sentence, Yang Huan can already outline the scene of this epic movie.

"Okay, this theme is good" Yang Huan was amazed.

"Those Europeans and Americans must have forgotten about the Second World War, but we made great achievements for the world, without us, they could have won the Second World War? Let's use this movie to remind them that during World War II, our contribution was no less than theirs, our sacrifice was no less than theirs, don't fucking make it seem like the earth wouldn't turn without them."

As soon as Yang Huan said this, everyone present felt their blood boiling.

"Well, well said"

"This is what it feels like to be an epic blockbuster"

"That's right, let's make a movie to remind them"

"And little Japan, we have to make them understand how many crimes they have committed"

"In the final analysis, we and Britain and the United States are victorious countries, and little Japan is a defeated country, so we have to remind them"

"On this one theme, invite the best screenwriters and experts in China to create the script, the war scenes have to be filmed well, there must be that epic feeling, and the computer special effects must also be the best, are there any in China? No? Okay, I'll go back and ask them to go to Hollywood to buy a top special effects company to serve Chinese films."

When Yang Huan said this, everyone present was dumbfounded.

Specializing in acquiring a top Hollywood special effects company for a movie?

Obediently, this is too big, too rich, right?

"Young Master Huan, how high is this budget?" Chen Ke asked with a bitter smile.

In his bones, he is still troubled by the idea of being diligent and thrifty.

Isn't?

The best star cast, the best behind-the-scenes team, the best screenwriting team, the best special effects team, how much does it cost?

Who knows, Yang Huan waved his hand and slapped Chen Kexin's shoulder hard.

"Lao Chen, don't worry about this money, I sue you, this movie has no budget, I will invest as much as you want, you will be the director, Lao Huang will be the producer, you will cooperate again, the filming is done, let's go abroad to grab money"

When everyone heard this, they were so excited in their hearts

Today's film market is full of Hollywood movies coming in to grab money.

If our Chinese-language movies can also go out and grab money, how exciting would it be?

Chen Kexin nodded excitedly.

He knew it was his last chance

If he catches it, he will have hope of reaching the top

If he fails again, then he won't be delusional

At this moment, Sun Yue rushed in from outside the screening hall.

"Master Huan, good news"
