Cultivator Returns to the City

Chapter 91: Movie Imagination

   Xiaoman sat on Yin Xiu's shoulders, holding his glasses with two small paws and wearing them in front of his eyes, staring at the big screen in front of him unblinkingly.

   Although it can't understand English, it can't understand the subtitles.

However, Xiaoman was very excited when experiencing such a 3D effect for the first time. With his big furry tail swaying from time to time, he couldn't help turning his head and yelling at Yin Xiu'Gaj', and stretched out a small paw to point to the front. The screen seems to be saying something to Yin Xiu.

   The voice is not loud, but Xiaoman's call still attracts the attention of the people next to him. Hearing this strange cry, they couldn't help but look sideways.

   Fortunately, it was dark in the movie hall at this time, and I couldn't see clearly. Yin Xiu hurriedly hushed Xiaoman and asked it to be quiet.

   Xiaoman obediently didn't call any more, and turned his head to watch the movie.

   Yin Xiu also put his attention on the screen again...

   Ji Xueqing and Jiang Xiaoying each held a bucket of popcorn and stuffed one into their mouths from time to time, staring at the screen.

   After more than two hours, the film finally ended.

After    appeared at the end of the movie, before the lights in the movie hall were on, Yin Xiu let Xiaoman get into his pants pocket, so as not to wait and provoke the crowd...

   "Huh, it's over, let's go..." Jiang Xingling stood up as the lights in the theater turned on.

Most people in the    theater also stood up one after another, and there was a murmur of discussion, basically discussing the content of the film just watched.

   Yin Xiu probably listened a bit, it seems that most people are satisfied with the movie just now.

   A moment later, Yin Xiu, Ji Xueqing and Jiang Xingling exited together and walked out of the theater. After returning the 3D glasses to the staff at the door and asking for the 20 yuan deposit, the three left the studio.

   Although it is already early six o'clock, the summer is still very early, and even the sun has not yet set.

   "Yin Xiu, what do you think of the movie just now? The 3D effect feels good, right?" Jiang Xinying asked.

Yin Xiu laughed and nodded: "Well, it's okay. The 3D effect really makes people feel immersive and real, and the screen is very fine and beautiful. However, the plot is weaker, and it is very simple and old. set."

   "Right." Jiang Xingxiao smiled and said: "This kind of Hollywood blockbuster itself mainly looks at special effects. The plot has always been the'weakness' of Hollywood commercial movies."

"Well, yes. Now this kind of commercial film is the mainstream of the movie market. If the plot is too complicated, the audience may not buy it. Most of the people watching movies are for fun and leisure. It doesn't need to spend too much brain. Commercial films that can be seen clearly by thinking about it are acceptable to the audience."

   Ji Xueqing said.

   "Well, that's right." Yin Xiu nodded, "If the plot is too complicated to watch a movie in a theater, the audience will find it difficult. It is indeed unpleasant."

   "Yes, that's the truth. So now the simple and straightforward commercial films in theaters are the mainstream." Ji Xueqing answered.

   Yin Xiudao: "It seems that Hollywood commercial films are popular in China. It is not unreasonable. People really grasp the essence of the market, and they are really good in special effects. But..."

   "But what?"

   Yin Xiu smiled and said, "It just feels that the combat effectiveness of the so-called superheroes inside is too weak."

   "Do you think the superheroes in the movie just now have weak combat effectiveness?" Jiang Xingyun looked at Yin Xiu in surprise.

"Yeah." Yin Xiu nodded and said: "It really feels very weak. Those superheroes who are themselves'reconstructed' by ordinary people are fine. Those Thors, since they belong to the so-called Protoss, they are still in the Protoss. The existence of the top, the combat effectiveness shown in the film is indeed too weak."

   Yin Xiu really thinks so. If the top power in the Protoss has only the fighting power shown in the movie, it is indeed weak in Yin Xiu's view.

  Of course, movies are just movies after all, and he cannot be measured by his concept of power as a cultivator.

   "What you said is true. That Thor's power setting does feel a bit problematic. It should be specially weakened to the level similar to other superheroes for the plot." Jiang Xiaoxiao said. She agrees with Yin Xiu on this point.

Ji Xueqing said: "This is not the case for Hollywood superhero series movies. If you look carefully, many plot and personality aspects may not be able to withstand sophisticated. The focus of the audience’s attention will not be on these aspects, so even the movie itself It has many flaws, but it can still sell well all over the world."

"This is where Hollywood commercial films are great. Not only do they crush everything in the English-speaking area, but also in other non-English-speaking areas, such as our China, it can also be popular. Speaking of which, although China's movie box office has continued to increase significantly in recent years, But nearly half of the box office was taken by foreign Hollywood movies."

   Jiang Shining said with emotion.

   "Yes, our Huaxia movies can only rely on some comedies, action movies and the like to support the scenes, but it is difficult to have big-selling special effects movies." Ji Xueqing couldn't help but sigh.

   This is the status quo of Chinese movies.

As a member of the show business circle, Jiang Xingyi feels more deeply about this. "This is no way. The current situation of our China film industry is like this. Even if there are occasional so-called big investments and big productions, it actually spends most of the investment. On those movie stars."

"Even if there is an investment of 100 million yuan, most of which is spent on the film remuneration for participating stars, and there is still 30 to 50 million dollars left. What kind of top-level special effects can be produced? Not to mention this is only Huaxia coins. It’s incomparable to the value of the U.S. dollar, and the gap can be imagined. It’s no wonder that China’s film and television dramas are always complaining about the '50 cents special effects'..."

   "Well, I really hope that someday our own movies in China will be comparable to these commercial productions in Hollywood." Ji Xueqing said with emotion.

   After decades of development, China has been improving rapidly in all aspects, but the gap with the western world is still obvious in many fields, including film and television.

   "Our China's special effects production ability should not be much inferior to Hollywood, right?" Yin Xiu said.

   Jiang Shining nodded, "If you are willing to spend a lot of money on special effects, it will not be too much inferior to Hollywood. But the point is that few people are willing to spend so much money on special effects."

"If the special effects account for too much investment, then the amount of remuneration left to the actors will naturally be reduced accordingly, so that no top charismatic superstar can join. Now which movie stars with good box office charisma are not worth the money Ten million levels."

"If we don’t wait for our company to develop in the future, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com has sufficient funds, we can find someone to invest in a special effects production that belongs to our China. Then we will spend all the money we should spend. In terms of special effects, as for actors, just find some capable actors with sufficient acting skills..."

   Yin Xiu said half jokingly.

   Jiang Xing said: "What about the box office? Without the big names joining, the box office of the movie is worrying."

Yin Xiu shrugged and said, "That depends on the investor's thinking. Anyway, I don't think the box office should care so much. In a word, it's such a sentiment. As for whether the audience can buy it, it doesn't matter. It needs to be too caressing. Just make a commendable work with your heart, and if you lose it, you lose it."

   Yin Xiu doesn't care about Qian at all. Even if he really invests in filming and makes money and loses money in the future, he won't care about it.

   Of course, this is just what he said. As for whether he really wants to try a movie in the future, only God knows.

Jiang Xingxiao laughed'chuckled' and said, "Then I can wait for your two companies to develop sooner. If you really invest in a major production at that time, as investors, you have to leave me a role! "

Ji Xueqing couldn’t help laughing when she heard this, and said, “Well, if our company can really develop, then we must invest in a large-scale movie. The heroine of the movie is left to you, so ah, you can get it. Improve your acting skills well, don’t be criticized by others for your acting skills, huh..."
