I’m Almost Losing to a Muggle

What kind of level can an actor who has just debuted for four years probably reach?

Like Anxi, she first collaborated with Yuhuatian on The Family of Gold Fans, and then she joined Tianlong Babu and Condor Heroes. Her four-year debut is the pinnacle that many people can't reach.

And like Wu Tie, who has debuted for decades, he dare not say what status he has.

Lin Dong debuted for four years and starred in many movies and two or three TV series. Although he failed to become the best movie star, he also won a lot of awards, including the best newcomer at the Venice International Film Festival, and the best newcomer at the Spring City Film Festival. Best Actor, also nominated for Best Actor for Magnolia.

No matter what, they are considered to be the most successful faction in the circle.

Just when everyone thought that he was going to work hard in acting, he announced that he was going to be a director.

And the selections are not the romance or literary films that ordinary directors would choose when they first come out, nor are they action crime films with a higher level of difficulty.

Straight up is the fairy tale blockbuster.

The investment amount is said to be 350 million.

Xu Guai was hired as the producer, Jiang Xiaojun was hired as the screenwriter, and Zhou Longxing was also named as a consultant.

With such a high investment cost, there are troika escorts.

There was no need to deliberately greet the media, they immediately flocked to get an interview position.

The opening ceremony is scheduled for June 21st.

The second day of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday is also Father's Day.

It is written in the almanac that it is suitable for priests, consecration, and blessings, but it is forbidden to buy property, move into a house, and be buried.

The opening ceremony was held in Hengdian Film and Television City.

Originally, according to Lin Dong's idea, the start-up process did not need to be too complicated. The main actors and staff of the crew were gathered together, and several media were invited to interview on the spot.

The main thing is the opening ceremony, no matter how grand you make it, you can't spend too much money.

But the opening ceremony of the new Shushan can not be low-key if you want to be low-key.

Lin Dong himself has very good connections. When they heard that his movie was about to start shooting, everyone decided to take some time to save face.

If you don't let me go, you just don't give me face.

The president of Zhongyou Media, the president of Lightsaber Media, the vice president of Bona Films, the director of Yida Films, the prince, and others include Chasing Animation, Perfect Films, and Ma Ben Films...

Dozens of people from film and television companies came here, and several of them had presidents or vice presidents.

Some of these people who came here have good relationships and cooperate with each other, but some are competitors who have been fighting for a long time, and they want to let the other party have a meal and choke to death.

But after coming here, he was able to talk and laugh at Yanyan, without any estrangement at all.

This is all for Lin Dong's face.

Of course, those who don't know the details will think that this is the face of Kleist from his colleagues in the circle.

Jiang Xiaojun, the screenwriter, was present and attracted many celebrities and entertainers from the domestic entertainment industry.

Logically speaking, no matter what the reason for the producer is, he would not overwhelm the guests and let his aura affect other directors to pretend to be compared, but Xu Wei did not keep a low profile this time.

He brought a large number of big names from Xiangjiang.

Among them, there are more than a dozen characters from the actor and actress ranks alone.

It looked like he was challenging Jiang Xiaojun.

Lin Dong didn't stop him either, you two fight, most of your careers are due to internal fighting.

Plus all kinds of media present.

This opening ceremony is comparable to a film festival.

The guests sat down, the reporters were on both sides, and the cast and crew were on the stage.

Sit in rows behind a long table.

This time, Boss Lin deservedly took the C seat.

He will also take on the journalists' guns and short shots, as well as their interview questions.

The first person who got the chance to ask questions was a reporter from Aunt Wang Entertainment. After Lin Dong briefly introduced the project, she couldn't wait to ask: Does the new Shushan project really have an investment of 350 million? Is there any publicity? moisture in it?

This young lady is quite gentle in appearance, and the questions she asks are not polite at all.

Our company has given great support to this project. 350 million is just an initial budget. If the budget is overrun later, we will continue to increase the money. Lin Dong answered seriously.

It means that the budget is more than 350 million? The young lady was stunned.

In fact, most people think the same as her, thinking that the cost of 350 million is just a gimmick.

There are too many people playing this way in China, especially those five generations of big directors, who can make hundreds of millions at every turn, some of which are real, and some are pure hype.

Everyone takes it for granted that you get what you pay for.

As long as enough money is spent, the quality of the movie will definitely not be bad.

Yes, and our company has not set an upper limit. The question about investment costs ends here. The next one is the gentleman in the blue T-shirt on the left. Lin Dong is very sure.

This New Shushan is the same as Du Qixi's two films, because it is a film produced by Kleist himself, there is no way to settle it immediately, and the settlement can only be completed after the box office is fully released.

Compared with investing in outside movies, the settlement cycle is a big flaw.

But it's not all bad, that is, before the settlement comes out, Lin Dong can make reasonable additional investment in the project without any restrictions.

So Lin Dong intends to treat this project as a money-consuming machine.

As long as the money at hand is too much to spend, let's find some reason to invest in it, so we won't worry about the movie being demolished.

The quota for the movie theaters is already full this year, there are 15 movie theaters, and Lin Dong doesn't dare to spend money casually, so he must invest cautiously.

Hello, I'm a reporter from Toutiao. What I want to ask is that Huaxia Star Company and Guangjin Films jointly announced not long ago that they will create a fantasy and mythical film with the background of gods. The director is Director Xu's Shushan The visual effect design of Legend of Gods is Xu Quan, both sides have the same themes, similar investment scales, and the inextricable relationship, may I ask Director Lin, do you regard Legend of the Gods as your main competitor?

It turned out that this project was taken over by Huaxia Star and Guangjin Films.

Lin Dong has actually been in contact with this project.

When I saw the cast and the amount of investment, I was immediately shocked.

Decisively refused.

Unexpectedly, they also got investment, and they were about to shoot.

Maybe it will be released at the same time in the future.

Hehe, he didn't intend to make Xin Shushan too good-looking. When it is compared with Legend of the Gods by others, it is obviously very different, so it is even more impossible to have a market.

Even those scavengers who said they would give Huaxia special effects films a chance would probably have no face to clean up New Shushan.

This is a worse world.

As long as others are worse than you, you are the fattest and you can be the final winner.

However, although he thought so in his heart, Lin Dong still had no intention of provoking this competitor with words, but said sincerely: The actors in that drama are all actors I like and respect very much, and director Li Quan has also won many awards. As filmmakers, I hope to learn from them and make progress together, without a life-and-death competition.”

I asked the editor, the BUG that cannot be seen in the comments will be resolved tomorrow, the author can see it, everyone is welcome to participate in the discussion of the plot
