It is very difficult to pass the review of the movie "Empty Bucket".

Lin Dong was disgusted with those magical dramas and planned to film "The Lonely City" and "Empty Bucket", and also took an unusual passionate route.

"The Lonely City" passed the review and only took dozens of minutes.

Du Qixi took the cut movie and went to drink tea, and then went home with the screening permit.

"Empty Bucket" is the result of efforts from multiple parties.

The main reason is that the theme of this movie is too explosive.

It can easily cause panic among people there.

Emma, ​​they actually want Wutong. Didn’t they agree that harmony and love will always be together?

Yes.

This is not good!

However, there is something to say for those who work hard for this movie.

If I don’t slap you, it doesn’t mean I don’t dare to slap you, but I don’t want to slap you now.

Be shameless.

Jumping clown.

I really thought I could jump around for a few more days.

Finally, the film finally passed the review.

There are many restrictions, from scripts to shooting, editing, and publicity and distribution, there must be a certain process.

But, in the end, a certain Aoluo's wish was fulfilled.

From this we can see that Guo Jia’s father really attaches great importance to the cat factory.

In January, Cat Factory released not only "The Lonely City", but also "The Big Event" directed by Niu Jian.

"The Big Event" premiered at the Berlin Film Festival on February 17, 2017 and was officially released in mainland China on January 12.

A movie that loses money does not expect any box office.

The box office was really bad.

In January, there was another movie that attracted Lin Dong's attention, that is "The True Heroes 2018". Director Ding Sheng once collaborated with Lin Dong with "The Strongest Opponent".

That movie was very exciting.

When ordinary film critics take stock of the villains of Chinese movies, they often cut off the scene of Lin Dong being interrogated.

Lin Dong respects Ding Sheng very much.

But when Ding Sheng was looking for him to invest in a new project, he shamelessly rejected him.

Very ruthless.

The reason why he rejected others was naturally because he was frightened by the name of the new project.

"The True Color of Heroes"!

Oh my god.

Which of the two movies, "The True Color of Heroes" and "New Shushan"?

No matter what others think, Lin Dong will be very happy to accept the disadvantage. That is a generation, no, it should be said that it is the feelings of several generations.

"The morality of the rivers and lakes no longer exists now, and no one around you can believe it."

This classic line made him feel the same.

He was very able to understand the feeling of despair of the deep vortex and being surrounded by dozens of big men.

"Being confident may not succeed, and not being confident may not succeed!"

This classic line is his motto.

So every time he invests, he is very decisive and confident.

And they fought repeatedly, fought repeatedly, and suffered repeated defeats, and repeatedly...

"Maybe for you, food is nothing? But for us, food is our parents, and you are not allowed to insult my relatives!"

For this sentence, he was willing to invest in any script written by the screenwriter.

Unfortunately, since "The Detective" in 1992, John Woo has never been a screenwriter again.

But Lin Dong still dared not underestimate this "Heroic Reality 2018".

IP is a big IP.

Popular exception.

The director is also a powerful and powerful man like Ding Sheng, so he is even more afraid to take risks.

In the end, I hid my conscience and refused to invest.

Fortunately, Ding Sheng finally found an investment, and Capital Culture and Yaolai Film and Television invested money for him.

Among them, Yaolai Film and Television, which cooperated with Fanglong to open a cinema, has faced a financial crisis and has invested all its funds into this project as a life-saving straw.

It's up to this to make a sip of milk.

However, when the movie was released, Ding Sheng, Lin Dong, Capital Culture and Yaolai Film and Television were all stunned.

This movie with an investment of 150 million yuan, in theory, has to make 450 million yuan to make a profit.

Unfortunately, it was beaten by "Ex-3" which had been released for 24 days on the first day of its release. This was the result of "Ex-3" falling sharply.

Zhongyou Media, the producer of "Ex-3", has been somewhat affected.

That's it?

There are more and more doubts, and it is obvious that this movie will not be able to splash any more.

Lin Dong personally watched this movie at the Meow Tail Cinema on the Commercial Street.

It is obvious that the new version of the heroic true nature wants to surpass the classics on the basis of paying tribute to the classics, but its strength is limited.

There has basically been a polarized reputation.

Lin Dong thinks this is a brand new story. If it is not associated with the true nature of a hero, the results may be better.

In order to invest, Ding Sheng may have made a lot of compromises in selecting actors.

An actor like Wang Dadi really can’t act anything, it’s so embarrassing to watch.

But his resources have always been very good.

The other actors are hard to describe.

However, many times, it is not a crime of war. Even if Lin Dong comes to shoot this movie and ask him to choose actors casually, he will not be able to make it a good choice.

Brother Fa can still find him, but Rong Zai is completely gone.

Brother Di Long is already old, and even his son has been in the industry for seventeen years.

Ding Sheng or Ding Sheng is still at the same level, and there are also highlights in bad movies. If you invest, the system should not object.

What a pity, I missed this opportunity to earn money.

If you lose money, the score should be quite low.

After all, he is a popular IP director and a not-so-bad cast. If you change the script, you may not have to lose money.

However, Lin Dong did not go to Ding Sheng to book the next new film.

We remove those who have relatively stable performance - they always make money, and they rarely lose money, such as Zhou Longxing, Ning Hai, etc., and then remove those who have always lose money, such as Wang Zheng, Xu Aihua and others, and the rest are not so stable directors.

Many of these directors have a rule.

They may not make money in each movie, but they often make money and lose money in turn.

Why?

The reason is very simple. When a director loses money, he will reflect on it. He will learn new commercial popular models, and then the things he shoots can cater to the public's tastes more.

This new movie will naturally make money easier.

But when they make money, they tend to float and feel that they are amazing.

I feel like I can succeed in any shooting.

This is probably a common problem for creators. Whether they are filming movies or writing novels, most of them are like this.

On Saturday, January 20, 2018, Lin Dong's "The Lonely City" premiered in the mainland.

The promotional and distribution side still made a premiere at midnight. Although it was too late, celebrities from all walks of life were very supportive.

After the premiere was released, everyone will know.

Because of the high attention, I was immediately targeted at the Hot Search for the Scarf and Meow Meow Hot Search.

In comparison, Li Xuexue's "The Mysterious Nest" released on the same day is so low-key, and the screening is incomparable to "The Lonely City".
