It was the same beautiful female host and the same few guests, but today the topic of 'movie style' had changed.
"Teacher Shen, we now know that DaXu Culture, which just released the wildly popular film 'Summer's Depression'..."
Their next project isn't a movie, but a TV series. What are your thoughts on this?
The female host then turned her question to Shen Juntang, who was dressed in a suit and tie, sitting next to her.
Do you remember at the last "Movie Fan" event, this founder of the "Billion Club" refused to invite our great director Xu to join?
Of course, he also received many "warm greetings" from fans in Xu Lu's live broadcast room, from him to his family members, with the word "Mom" appearing frequently.
Fortunately, Teacher Shen wasn't in Xu Lu's live stream; otherwise, just seeing that huge wave of "warm greetings" would probably have made her too excited to speak all day.
It is precisely because Shen Juntang is unaware of this that he dares to speak so freely today, saying:
"I suddenly realized that I had made a pretty good decision. Luckily, I didn't act impulsively and bring this director named Xu Lu into the club."
As it turns out, some young people become famous simply because of temporary luck; no one really knows how much talent they actually have.
As for Daxu Culture's plan to produce a TV series, I can only hope they have good luck. Everyone knows that making TV series is not easy these days.
On the one hand, the revenue from TV dramas is far less than that from movies; on the other hand, for a film director to make TV dramas is considered self-degradation…
"Okay, thank you for your comments, Professor Shen!"
The female host was very satisfied with the other person's rhythm and nodded repeatedly.
Soon, she turned her gaze to the eager director Liu Jilin and said:
"Just now, Director Liu seemed hesitant to speak. Does he have his own opinion about the news that Daxu Culture is going to make a TV series?"
Liu Jilin said without any politeness:
"I mentioned last time that this young man named Xu Lu has a quirky personality, but I didn't expect him to be so unreliable."
Why not make a proper movie and instead make a TV series? Isn't that just plain stupid? How can there be such idiots?
To be honest, I'm a bit confused about what's wrong with the audience. They actually pushed that "Summer's Depression" to a billion-yuan box office. It's really unacceptable...
It's quite rare in the entire film industry for a young director to not focus on honing his skills but instead seek survival by taking a lower position..."
There's a reason why Liu Jilin said that.
For example, movie stars definitely consider themselves superior to TV drama stars.
As for actors and artists, if they have movies to shoot, they definitely won't shoot TV series.
Furthermore, the difference in pay is enormous!
This situation also applies to the world of directors.
Generally speaking, directing a movie is much more difficult than directing a TV series.
However, DaXu Culture, having just released a wildly popular movie, immediately announced that it was going to make a TV series.
In the film industry, this news would be considered 'outrageous' by people like Liu Jilin...
This episode of 'Movie Style' immediately generated a great response upon airing.
Those who were previously overwhelmed by the explosive popularity of "Charlotte's Depression" have now been revitalized.
For example, actress Liu Miao is a case in point.
After "Charlotte's Depression" grossed over 1 billion, she finally experienced the feeling of being a huge hit.
Unfortunately, it was a 'fire' in the negative sense.
Even her saying, "I won't take on films with less than 1 billion yuan in box office revenue," has become a famous quote used to tease others in the industry.
Liu Miao originally thought she would have to endure 'cyberbullying' for a longer period of time and wouldn't be able to get away anytime soon.
But she didn't expect that at this critical moment, Daxu Culture would do something stupid by saying it was going to make a TV series!
"Hehehe, go back to making your ghost TV dramas, and you'd better not make any more movies in the future!"
Liu Miao was secretly delighted:
"That way, others won't remember my embarrassing moments from before, and I won't be ridiculed anymore."
That damn DaXu Culture, they've made my life miserable lately, but thankfully they brought it on themselves..."
Musician Yang Dakun shared similar thoughts.
He had never found an opportunity to mock Charlotte.
But when he heard that Daxu Culture was going to film a TV series, Yang Dakun felt that his opportunity was coming soon.
"I'll wait a few more months, and once that kid's TV series flops, I'll post on Weibo and directly criticize him!"
Teacher Da Kun thought to himself silently.
...
Unlike these people with ulterior motives, netizens expressed their surprise in a fairly neutral manner:
"Wow! They just made a great film like 'Summer's Depression,' and now they're going to make a TV series? What kind of move is that?"
"I have to say, our Director Xu has such a youthful mindset; he just says whatever comes to mind..."
"I heard it's a martial arts drama. Hasn't the martial arts film market been almost completely eroded by now?"
"Yes, Daxu Culture is acting a bit like 'knowing there are tigers in the mountains, yet still venturing into the tiger's den' this time."
"It's a bit of a pity. It would be so good if they continued making movies. That way, we could see good movies again in a few months."
...
"I'm actually looking forward to the TV series that Director Xu is making. Martial arts films have always been my favorite, and I hope he can make a good one."
