Chapter 607 Blacken it! Blacken it!(1/5)
Chapter 607: Go dark! Go dark!
Magic City, Xicheng.
After returning home, Luo Mo had been suffering from insomnia for the past few days. He was resting his head on Xu Tianhou's plump and elastic thighs, enjoying the pressure of her long fingers on his head.
Tsk, if you don’t put it another way, my sister just loves people.
Xu Chujing looked at Luo Mo, who was concentrating with his eyes closed, and said softly: "Do you know about "The Apostle of Doom"?"
"Of course I know." Luo Mo still closed his eyes and said, "It's weird."
To be honest, if China succeeds in hitting the world's second largest movie box office this year, then Luo Mo, the director of "I'm Not the God of Medicine", will be the number one contributor.
Because this movie has the highest box office in the country, it has the largest contribution as a single movie!
Let's talk about it, it doesn't matter if the impact fails, we just need to keep up our efforts next year.
It's just that the entire Chinese film industry was outraged by the "Apostle of Doom" drama.
It's a pity that many people can only be incompetent and furious.
In the field of science fiction, it can indeed be said that Blue Star China’s film industry has made no achievements at all.
"Actually, the point of this matter is not science fiction." Luo Mo closed his eyes and said.
"They are just picking on our shortcomings and taking the opportunity to increase their ridicule," he said.
The fundamental problem with "The Apostle of Doom" is that the blatant plot and many of its contents are blatantly slapping all Chinese people in the face, smearing and insulting them, which can also be said to be discrimination.
After all, people know that they can’t make money in China. Of course, they are bad-mouthed and pretentious. If they say they feel sorry for China’s science fiction fans, they say that the team doesn’t care about China’s box office, etc.
Xu Chujing nodded slightly, remembered something, and said, "Didn't you say before that you also have some ideas in the field of science fiction?"
"I want to think about it again," Luo Mo said.
He opened his eyes and stopped resting on Xu Chujing's lap. He stood up and said, "Actually, even if you want to make a science fiction movie, you only need to focus on the domestic market. Don't expect to prove yourself through overseas box office."
Xu Chujing agreed with this and said: "Take "Star Field" as an example. This movie ranks first in the box office in many overseas countries. But if it was made by China, it would still not be much higher overseas."
Seeing Xu Chujing say this, Luo Mo knew in his heart that she understood what he meant.
In his opinion, it is true that Hollywood on earth has many extremely classic science fiction movies.
However, by localizing these Hollywood science fiction movies on Earth, can he compete with Blue Star's Hollywood in Blue Star's overseas markets?
impossible!
This has nothing to do with the quality of the work.
This involves [cultural export] and involves many issues.
As Xu Chujing said, because "Star Field" is a work of Blue Star Hollywood, its global box office can be so high.
But if "Star Field" is localized, directed by a Chinese director, acted by Chinese actors, and everyone in the movie speaks Chinese, look at the overseas box office!
There are too many factors involved here.
You can search for "global box office rankings" online now, and then see which countries these movies come from, or not which ones, but which countries.
But in fact, apart from the movies from these countries, there are really no classics in the movies from other countries? Are their quality inferior to them? Are they all garbage?
Of course not!
One thing needs to be made clear. [Movies] may really be art, but [movie releases] are not.
Overseas box office has never been the standard for judging the quality of Chinese films.
Interestingly, precisely because science fiction and other fields are what Hollywood is good at, many people will have the idea that if overseas audiences don’t buy it, it means that the movie is garbage, and there will be a lot of people on the Internet who will criticize it.
If this movie happens to be very high at the domestic box office, then it can rise to the level of Chinese people's aesthetic appreciation.
Similar sentence format: "Chinese people can only watch XXX!"
Damn, there is a long way to go.
Therefore, in Luo Mo's view, no matter how unhappy the people in the "Apostle of Doom" team are, it will be difficult to beat them at the overseas box office.
This is unrealistic.
As we all know: reality is far more magical than fiction.
So, we can draw the conclusion: No novel would dare to write this.
"But, we can change our thinking." Luo Mo already had a rough idea in his mind.
He took out his mobile phone and silently started searching Blue Star's [Global Movie Box Office Rankings].
………
………
December has arrived, and Luo Mo is busy again after a short rest.
He has already decided which new movie to make and plans to complete the initial preparations before the Chinese New Year.
In addition, following the principle of equal treatment, he felt that he had not been favored by the music industry for a long time.
The music scene is Luo Mo's base, where he has the greatest advantage and strongest power so far.
"It's time to prepare for my new album." Luo Mo thought to himself.
Throughout this year, on major social platforms, there are always people asking: "Luo Mo, where is your new album?"
Luo Mo just pretended to be dead.
He was too busy some time ago and was afraid that after making a promise, he would not be able to fulfill it. By then, brother Luo Mo would become Luo Mo Gege.
We don’t want to learn from Milk Tea Lun!
In addition, Luo Mo also received an invitation from Sister Run.
Because he directed the previous [Youth Day] party well, our director Ning has been entrusted with the important task of directing the New Year's Eve party again.
This New Year's Eve is December 31st, not the Spring Festival Gala.
The level of the Spring Festival Gala is so high that Ningdan can’t even dream of it for the time being.
Of course, if time went back a few years, Ningdan wouldn't even dare to think about a New Year's Eve party.
Directing a New Year's Eve party is probably more difficult than being on top of Luo Mo.
In fact, not only Luo Mo received the invitation to the New Year's Eve party, Xu Chujing also received it.
Ningdan also waved his hand and gave the two of them great autonomy. It was up to them to decide whether to perform one chorus stage or two solo stages.
Luo Mo said that he would think about it and give Director Ning a reply in a few days.
"Okay." Ning Dan pursed her red lips on the other end of the phone and agreed immediately.
Luo Mo is actually thinking about which path he will take for his next new stage and new album.
Look what he has done recently!
Once again, he used music to play explosions in "The Beginning", and again he simply played dark music in "The Hidden Corner".
What a wonderful song, "The Lonely Warrior" has now become a children's song. It seems that primary school students all over the country can sing it, and maybe even kindergarten students.
The good song "Young China" has become a college entrance examination question. Many young people have not performed well in their compositions. I am afraid that this song will become a nightmare and a lifelong pain. It is completely impossible to listen to it!
"It's time to change our ways." Luo Mo made up his mind and changed his mind.
……..
……..
The new weekend is finally here, and "The Hidden Corner" will be updated.
You don’t know how much suffering it is for those waiting for the update.
Hey, no, maybe you know that too.
Xiao Cai, a new drama critic, was wearing a thick one-piece bear-style pajamas, half lying on the bed with a tablet computer, and clicked on the ninth episode.
The end of the previous episode ended so well that it made her extremely uncomfortable.
"Zhu Chaoyang was carrying 300,000 yuan on his back. Zhang Dongsheng followed him all the way, holding stones and trying to snatch the money back. However, Wang Li came out halfway and captured Zhu Chaoyang and his money!"
"I feel sorry for this big pervert Zhang Dongsheng for just one second." The JK rich woman said in her heart.
In fact, there were quite a few people who joined the chaos. Lao Chen, a retired veteran policeman, also appeared in the chaos. In order to protect Yan Liang, he was stabbed by Wang Li, and his life or death was unknown.
What worries Xiao Cai the most is that Lao Chen is one of the few pure good people in this drama.
Yan Liang obviously has many shortcomings, and he refuses to change despite repeated admonitions, but Lao Chen keeps pushing him in a good direction. For this reason, he also applied to be Yan Liang's guardian and was successfully approved.
After Lao Chen was stabbed by Wang Li, Yan Liang looked at Lao Chen, who was bleeding and his lips were white, and cried: "I told you to leave me alone, you have to show off."
"I am your guardian now, do you think I should take care of you or not?" Lao Chen said weakly.
When Xiao Cai saw this, he sincerely hoped that Yan Liang, the child, could be influenced and slowly get better and take the right path.
On the other side, Zhang Dongsheng took Pu Pu and drove closely behind Wang Li for his own 300,000 yuan.
After arriving at the place, he locked Pupu in the car and sneaked into the aquatic product factory.
