In a sense, Bai Xiaofei’s current super high popularity and the expectations of movie fans for him come from the contours of his peers!

After the Spring Festival, domestic films continued to be in a sluggish state.

It was originally an excellent Valentine's Day, but it didn't attract the audience's idea. "Contracted Men and Women" and "Crazy Mountain Prying Beauty" are all bad movies with Douban scores below 5 points!

After March, there are more bad movies!

What, "Love Bet", "The Second Treasures Go to the World"…

In two months, no domestic film with passing or above was launched.

The audience is really desperate about domestic movies!

In this case, the audience is of course looking forward to Bai Xiaofei even more.

Where there is audience attention, there is a market, and where there is market, there is media focus.

Therefore, after the release of "Riding the Wind and Waves", there were countless media interviews with him. All the ones that could be pushed were pushed by the ordinary people, and only those who could not be pushed away would be accepted.

After finally returning to Xihong City, he wanted to rest for a few days, but Fang Cunliang came up again...

It’s better to hide in the crew!

"In the Name of People" will be aired soon. With the power of this magical drama and the subsequent influence of "Wulin Waizai", there will definitely be a lot of media rushing to interview, so it would be better to leave early!

So, the day after the repost of "Sanlian" that Xiaobai flew to Shanghai...

...

Fang Cunliang was very confused.

He didn't know how to start writing.

I talked a lot about all aspects. If I were an ordinary reporter, I would simply use the form of questions and answers to record everything thoroughly.

However, Fang Cunliang is the ace reporter of "Sanlian", and he disdains to copy and paste directly.

I planned the special topic of "New Power of Comedy" in the first place and gave Bai Xiaofei the image of "the kind of boy who has not yet been smoothed out", which is very appropriate.

When he met Bai Xiaofei this time, he still dared to say something that others dare not say, such as IP.

The value bubble of IP has always been a controversial topic, and the criteria for measuring IP value include content, adaptation, production, market demand and other factors. Blindly pursuing the so-called super IP will only reduce its value to a simple media publicity stunt, and even fans will not even pay for IP.

However, some super IPs still have a lot of speculators to pay for.

Few people dare to be as sharp as Bai Xiaofei and say directly that 'IP will become a joke for the development of Chinese films'

However, Fang Cunliang also clearly felt that Bai Xiaofei was a little smoother.

For example, let him evaluate the actors he has worked with. Although he said something like "a drama cannot represent an actor", he finally praised all the actors.

In fact, what Fang Cunliang wants to ask is, "How do you think of Deng Chao in "The Villain Angel" and Deng Chao in "Riding the Wind and Waves"...

This is also a very natural phenomenon. After all, Bai Xiaofei's current identity is different from before. The biggest characteristic of maturity is that it is somewhat secular.

That is, the legendary sayings about people and talking nonsense when they see ghosts.

That's why we like the little boy in "The King's New Clothes", but we may not be willing to be that little boy!

However, he is still optimistic about Bai Xiaofei. At least when it comes to movies, he can feel that Bai Xiaofei is always the man who loves movies and has a clear plan for his career.

He has interviewed many young directors. Although most of them love movies, they do not have a clear understanding of themselves or the future.

I turned on the recorder and listened to the communication between the two again, and suddenly my thoughts became clear.

"Domestic movies are sometimes very eye-catching. Some are the reasons for the shock of martial arts to the visual, some are the touching and inspiring plots, and some are the pleasure, that is, comedy movies. Comedy movies have occupied a large market since the beginning, and the initial comedy should be some Hong Kong-style comedy in the Hong Kong film period. Later, modern comedy styles appeared, and various comedy movies appeared. For movies, comedy has occupied a large part of the market. After all, everyone likes to be happy. There are many comedy actors and directors in the mainland, such as Feng Xiaogang, Xu Zheng, Ning Hao, and of course Mahua and Bai Xiaofei."

"It has been two years since we last met Bai Xiaofei. In two years, Bai Xiaofei has initially become one of the directors with box office appeal."

"The "Knocking on the Door of Heaven" is a shocking moment. It is also a road comedy. Bai Xiaofei's entry point is different from all directors. He sets the madness of two dying people, the script is solid, the jokes are novel and fulfilling. When it comes to "Riding the Wind and Waves", it is obvious that he has stricter requirements for the script, and has made great progress in photography and editing. What remains unchanged is the high reputation of the movie!"

Taking a puff of cigarette, he continued to write, "We have expectations for the young director and expect him to make progress. From this point of view, Bai Xiaofei satisfied our expectations!"

“…What makes me most pleased is that he said, ‘I don’t have any plans to make art films for the time being, so I’d better start the market first. When the market gets hot, there will naturally be more good filmmakers coming out’…”

Having written this, Fang Cunliang turned around and started writing the title - Director Bai Xiaofei!

...

On March 14th, Guimao month and Gengzi day, it is advisable to receive wealth, trade, and avoid burial.

Anyway, it was a very ordinary day.

It was also very common for Bai Xiaofei. By the way, he was sitting on the bus from Jinling to Hengguo, wearing a baseball cap with the brim pressed down very low, and his eyes were closed, and he didn't come up to say hello without ignoring...

Outside, the south of the Yangtze River is slightly cold, but the plants and trees are booming, and the car is driving on a asphalt road that is neither wide nor narrow.

After waiting for more than a year, "The God of Medicine" is finally on the filming!

By the way, the shooting location of "The God of Medicine" is in Jinling and India.

I originally wanted to be in the Demon City, but it was difficult for the Demon City to find something of the era. In addition, the residents there were a little stingy and were reluctant to rent the house to the crew at a low price...

Negotiation is invalid...

Jinling is different. The western alley of Qinhuai District and the Olympic Sports Center in Hexi are all suitable for displaying the magic capital ten years ago!

Of course, more importantly, the Jinling Film Bureau is willing to provide a considerable shooting fund and local consumption reductions, so of course you have to choose Jinling.

The main creators have not arrived yet, especially Xu Zheng is still busy producing "Back to the Scenes Trading". It is estimated that it will take five days to arrive in Jinling. Xiaobai put his things in the hotel and took a bus to Hengguo in the afternoon.

There was no way, so the young lady begged him to come and spend a few days with her.

It is unshirkable!

After a three or four-hour drive, I finally arrived in Hengdian.

By the way, Xiaobai has never been to this Hengdian, which is known as Oriental Hollywood. This is the first time!

It was already six o'clock in the evening, and there were many tourists...

Unlike ordinary film and television cities, Hengdian's buildings are free for living and use, as long as they need to spend money here!
Chapter completed!
