In September, "The Wandering Earth 2" was officially launched.

However, many props and scenery are not yet completed.

For example, a space elevator needs to be built in a studio. This project is not small, so it has not been completed yet.

Most of the documents in the movie do not require special sets and can be shot directly by finding ready-made locations.

Therefore, the first thing we shot after we started filming was literary drama.

The drama took a month to film, and the crew had a three-day National Day holiday.

After the vacation, according to the shooting plan, Lin Yingxue joined the set.

Started filming the selection and training of astronauts.

In the astronaut selection plot, "Han Duoduo" played by Lin Yingxue made her first appearance, and fell over her shoulder and knocked down a thorn.

"Liu Peiqiang" played by Fang Xing also fell in love with the heroic "Han Duoduo" at a glance because of this shoulder fall.

After nearly three months of fitness and training, Lin Yingxue's muscle lines have become much stronger. She is not as thin as ordinary female celebrities. The overall appearance gives people a tough feeling, which indeed means a bit heroic.

Moreover, Lin Yingxue is very beautiful, which also makes the plot of "Liu Peiqiang" fall in love at first sight very reasonable.

…

at the same time.

"The Three-Body Problem" has also started shooting.

Due to the experience of filming the first part, the second part was shot with the same cast.

However, the main perspective of the plot shifts to "Luo Ji".

"Luo Ji" is the male protagonist of "The Three-Body Problem", and most of the main plot clues unfold on "Luo Ji".

However, the "Three-Body" series itself does not have an absolute protagonist positioning.

This is a science fiction story, and the focus of the story is the science fiction itself, not the emotional experience of a certain character.

In the TV series "The Three-Body Problem", it seems that "Wang Miao" is the male protagonist, but there is a character that runs through the whole drama, and that is "Ye Wenjie".

Therefore, the "Three Body" series prefers group portraits, using the experiences of many characters to tell a science fiction story about human society facing the threat of alien civilization.

This series shows the diversity of human society.

The appearance of all living beings is the core of the plot.

The character that runs through the whole play in "The Three-Body Problem" is "Ye Wenjie".

In "The Three-Body Problem", the character who plays throughout the whole play is "Luo Ji".

"Luo Ji" was a playboy and a scholar of cosmic sociology when he was young. When facing the crisis of Trisolaran civilization, he was selected as Wall-facer No. 4.

This character has high intelligence and a double degree in astronomy and sociology, but he likes to be opportunistic, cynical, and has no sense of responsibility.

Although he shoulders the important mission of saving mankind, he uses this opportunity to create a comfortable home for himself and indulges himself in the gentle countryside to avoid taking on the heavy responsibility of the Wall Facer.

This character was definitely not likable in the early stages, but during his time as the Wallfacer, he grew as the story progressed.

In the end, through calm thinking, he deduced the dark forest theory of cosmic sociology, thereby finding a way to deter the Trisolarans, and became the first sword holder.

However, the story about the man holding the sword is the content of "Three-Body Problem 3".

"Luo Ji" deduced the dark forest theory and seized the sword that threatened the Trisolaran civilization. This is the ending plot of "Three-Body 2".

…

Ark Culture is shooting two projects at the same time, both of which are science fiction works, "The Wandering Earth 2" and "The Three-Body Problem".

The special effects of both works were produced by Nebula Special Effects.

Not only that.

Nebula Animation also has two projects in production, one is the third season of "Bear Bears" and the other is the big movie "Bear Bears" series.

With four projects being worked on at the same time, Ark Culture’s work schedule this year is very full.

Among them, the third season of "Bear Bears" and "The Jungle Book" were produced the fastest.

Because the results of the first two seasons were so good, TV stations started to compete in the third season.

However, in terms of competition, it is difficult for provincial satellite TV to compete with CCTV.

Moreover, the first two seasons of "Bear Bears" premiered on CCTV Children's Channel, so the third season was also given to CCTV Children's Channel.

Xiangjiang Satellite TV Children's Channel and Donghai Satellite TV Children's Channel are following the second round of broadcasts.

On New Year's Day, the third season of "Bear Bears" was launched, and the ratings once again broke the ratings record set in the first two seasons, causing the ratings of children's channels to skyrocket.

at the same time.

The first major movie of "Bear Bears", "Bear Bears: Treasure Hunt", has also been produced and has entered the promotion period.

When negotiating a release date.

Fang Xing defied public opinion and insisted on scheduling the "Bear Bears" animated film to be released during the Spring Festival.

For such an animated film with a low investment, it can easily become cannon fodder if it is placed during the Spring Festival to compete with those special effects blockbusters.

However, Fang Xing didn't care about this. Anyway, it was going to be released during the Spring Festival, so it didn't matter even if he became cannon fodder.

Moreover, an animated film "Bear Bears" will be produced every year as a regular program during the Spring Festival.

Due to the high ratings of the "Bear Bear" series, this series is quite profitable. Even if the animated movie fails at the box office, it will not lose much.

Therefore, Fang Xing insisted on taking the Spring Festival slot, and Liang Jing and other senior executives of Nebula Animation did not object anymore.

During this year’s Spring Festival, Ark Culture has no other movies to be released.

The filming of "The Wandering Earth 2" is almost complete and will probably be completed before the Spring Festival, but post-production will take at least half a year, so the schedule has not yet been determined.

Therefore, during this year’s Spring Festival, Ark Culture only has one film, "Bear Bears", to represent the company in the Spring Festival.

Although the TV version of "Bear Bears" has good ratings, this does not mean that the animated movie can be bought by the audience.

Moreover, the investment for "Bear Bears: Treasure Hunt" was very small.

Therefore, when discussing issuance, it is impossible to get too favorable conditions.

During the filming of "The Wandering Earth 2", Fang Xing took an afternoon to have a personal talk with Zhang Changfeng, the president of Penguin Pictures.

Zhang Changfeng is willing to release "Bear Bears", but it is impossible to release only this animated film during the Spring Festival.

The three major film distribution companies will definitely promote a popular movie during such a big period as the Spring Festival.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Obviously, the first animated film in the "Bear Bear" series does not have the ability to become a popular movie.

Therefore, Zhang Changfeng is already talking about popular movies from other film and television companies, but he is willing to release "The Bears".

However, only 5% can be given a taste of the first day of filming.

Moreover, this was arranged for the sake of "The Wandering Earth 2".

After all, "The Wandering Earth 2" will most likely be released during the Spring Festival next year, and then Zhang Changfeng will come to ask for cooperation.

If you sell favors now, it will be much easier when the time comes to discuss the release of "The Wandering Earth 2".

Fang Xing was still dissatisfied with the 5% film schedule, so he decided to package "Bear Bears" and "The Wandering Earth 2" together and sign a distribution contract.

If Zhang Changfeng is unwilling to arrange films at a higher level, then he will find other distribution companies to cooperate with.

If it were just the "Bear Bears" animated movie, it would definitely not get many film schedules. 5% is a more reasonable film schedule ratio.

However, if it is bundled with "The Wandering Earth 2", that is another matter.

Zhang Changfeng didn't expect that Fang Xing would be so bold as to bundle a science fiction movie like "The Wandering Earth 2", which has a basic budget of more than 4 billion, with an animated movie that may not necessarily exceed 100 million at the box office.

This kind of negotiation method has never been seen by Zhang Changfeng before.

"Brother Fang, are you so optimistic about this animated movie "Bear Bears"?" Zhang Changfeng was very confused.

"Yes, I am very optimistic about this animated movie."

Since the TV version of "Bear Bears" has been very successful in the ratings, this series of animated films will definitely be made, and one will be produced every year without fail.

In this case, let's just use the first part to push this series to the top and directly become the "wall of masterpieces" in the Spring Festival.

Zhang Changfeng frowned, a little embarrassed.

Because it is impossible for Penguin Pictures to promote an animated film "Bear Bears" during the Spring Festival.

If he does this, he will lose his position as president next year.

However, if more films are scheduled for "Bear Bears", it means that Penguin Pictures will lose all its advantages when negotiating with other film and television companies about the distribution of popular movies.

After thinking about it, he persuaded: "Brother Fang, we are old friends, but there are some things I can't help you with just because of our friendship. 5% of the film arrangement is already the maximum I can give."

Fang Xing didn't waste any time and said directly: "I understand, that's the case. Let's sign a guarantee. I want 10% of the film arrangement. Do you think how much guarantee I have to sign? Can you give me this film arrangement?"

Zhang Changfeng's eyes suddenly widened when he heard this film arrangement value.

This "Bear Bears: Treasure Hunt" is actually the theatrical version of the "Bear Bears" TV animation.

Similar theatrical movies are usually for fans.
