"This Xue Kaishan is really...
Chen Wen couldn't help but shook his head and laughed.
"What?" Li Yi looked suspicious.
"This "Hero's Choice," let's see who is the director?" Chen Wen said with a smile, pointing to the director column of a movie called "Hero's Choice" on the film list.
"Xue Yibin?"
"You mean this Xue Yibin is related to Xue Kaishan?" Li Yi asked doubtfully.
"Of course, Xue Yibin is Xue Kaishan's nephew. He came to support his nephew in advance." Chen Wen said in amazement.
"No, what's the point of criticizing "A Story More Sad Than Sad" by name?" Li Yi was puzzled. "Why is it useless? You are still too young!" Chen Wen shook his head.
"Do you know Xue Yibin?" Chen Wen asked again.
Then he shook his head and said: "Obviously you don't know. It's not an exaggeration to say that without your appearance, Xue Yibin can indeed be said to be the number one young director!"
"That's not right. Ask me, why haven't I heard of Xue Yibin's works?" Li Yi looked confused.
"This is normal, because Xue Yibin was not in China before, but in Hollywood, and has independently directed three films in Hollywood. Although they were all small-budget, they were all theatrical films, and each one was considered a success!" Chen Wen said.
"And this "Hero's Choice" is obviously the first movie he made after returning to China, and its importance is self-evident, so you understand?" Chen Wen said with a smile.
Li Yi shook his head and said: "But what's the use of Xue Kaishan doing this? Will it affect "Wreaths Under the Mountain"?" "I don't know about this, but if you are really labeled as having incorrect views, If so, will it have a certain impact on your next movie, which is "Garland Under the Mountain"? Of course, it is not ruled out that he has other purposes, such as suppressing your reputation and setting off his nephew. Yes. "Hero's Choice" also has investment from China Film Group. Could it be that they want to use this to suppress you and strive for more resources?" Chen Wen suddenly asked suddenly.
"Isn't that true? Just based on Xue Kaishan's words?" Li Yi felt a little ridiculous.
"It's hard to say. Don't underestimate Xue Kaishan. Once public opinion is stirred up, some people will have a bad opinion of you." Chen Wen frowned.
"Forget it, don't think about it so much, the boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge!" Li Yi shook his head.
What Li Yi didn't expect was that as soon as he finished speaking, his cell phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Zhao Guangming.
"Director Zhao! What instructions?" Li Yi picked up and said with a smile.
"How's the progress of your movie over there? Can it make it in time for the National Day release?" Zhao Guangming asked with a smile.
"Don't worry, Director Zhao, the filming of the movie is almost over, and the post-production is in progress simultaneously. You won't miss the schedule." Li Yi replied.
"What if it's a few days earlier?" Zhao Guangming asked suddenly.
"In advance?" Li Yi couldn't help but frowned.
The most important thing to know about the National Day schedule is the week of the National Day holiday. If the schedule is raised, it may not be a good thing for a movie like "Garland Under the Mountain".
After all, the time when the box office explodes is in the early stages of release.
"Why did Director Zhao suddenly raise his profile?" Li Yi asked, but there was a hint of speculation in his heart.
"It's nothing. The main reason is that there are too many movies released during the National Day schedule this year, and the involution will be too serious by then. Therefore, if the schedule is raised, we can give the greatest possible tilt to the film schedule.
Zhao Guangming said.
Li Yi was a little silent, obviously he was not particularly satisfied with Zhao Guangming's conditions.
Zhao Guangming understood what Zhao Guangming meant. When it came to releasing the movie, the cinemas under the China Film Group could give the greatest possible tilt. But there was one thing he didn't say, that is, when the National Day holiday comes, then "Under the Mountain" would be released. "The Flower Garland" is no longer a new film, and the film schedule can actually be cut off for other films.
"Director Zhao, why is it my movie?" Li Yi asked.
"This...Xiao Li, just give me a favor, and if "Garland Under the Mountain" performs well, actually releasing it first will give you an advantage.
" Zhao Guangming said.
"Can I know the reason? I'm just curious, is it because of "Hero's Choice"?" Li Yi asked with a smile.
"Yes!" Zhao Guangming said after being silent for a while.
"The prototype of that movie
I feel wronged to you!" Zhao Guangming said as soon as he clicked.
"I understand! However, Director Zhao, if "Garland Under the Mountain" performs better by then, you will be relieved." Li Yi said with a smile.
"That's natural. When the movie is released, it all depends on the market. Now it's a market economy!" Zhao Guangming said with a sigh of relief after hearing Li Yi's words.
Li Yi hung up the phone and couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"What? Do you still need to submit a file?" Chen Wen asked.
Li Yi nodded: "There is a prototype for "Hero's Choice"
Chen Wen understood immediately, but then he frowned and took out his phone to look at it.
"Tsk tsk, a Hollywood-style theme? And it actually chose a story in the same time period as our movie. No wonder!" After a while, Chen Wen said in amazement.
"However, they did have a good plan, but I don't know if it will be counterproductive?" Chen Wen said disdainfully.
"Counterproductive?" Li Yi wondered.
"This kind of movie with prototype characters can indeed get various benefits when it is released, but it is hard to say after it is released. If there are prototype characters, it cannot be too commercial, otherwise, you know!" Chen Wen He smiled and winked.
Li Yi immediately understood that indeed, this kind of movie with a historical prototype character, and a movie with a separate prototype character, must have the main theme.
And it just so happens that Xue Yibin made his debut in Hollywood. The main themes of Hollywood and heroes must have shortcomings. Either the family is not harmonious, or they only focus on work and ignore the family.
There is nothing wrong with this, and it would be completely ok if it were shot in China, but the problem is that he chose a subject with historical prototypes.
Then these things are very problematic!
On the other side, Xue Kaishan and Xue Yibin also received the news.
"Uncle, actually I hope to have a chance with this Li Yi and win head-on, which will be more convincing!" Xue Yibin said.
"There are many opportunities, but not this time. This is the first movie you have directed in China, so there is no room for error!" Xue Kaishan said calmly.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk!" At this time, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Come in!" Xue Kaishan shouted.
The person who came in was Xue Kaishan's wife, Zhou Ning.
"Old Xue, someone is leading your rhythm on the Internet, take a look!" Zhou Ning frowned.
