Xu Cheng had the idea of making a movie by himself a long time ago. It was an attempt for him to join the crew of "Crazy Stone" as a TV star, and he learned a lot by communicating with Chen Feng and Ni Hao.
After the box office explosion of "Crazy Stone", he was already taking the opportunity to make a transition, but unfortunately, the development was not smooth afterwards, and he even had to remake the TV series to relieve his financial pressure.
Until now, Xu Cheng finally has a masterpiece starring himself in this "Journey of Laughter".
Although he only starred in this film, like in the crew of "Crazy Stone", he participated in the whole production process of the film and has more dominance, whether it is the changes to the script or the details of the shooting, everywhere. All have his shadow.
It can be said that after the experience of this film, Xu Cheng finally has more sufficient experience and ability to make a film. This is also a big turning point in his life.
People always need to accumulate. Without long-term training, it is impossible to do one thing well without a reason.
Of course, except for Chen Feng. After all, Chen Feng is lucky to have all the experience and memories of his dream world. These are his most precious wealth.
But ordinary people don't have such magical abilities. To succeed, they still need not only hard work and dedication.
Just like Xu Cheng now, in order to be able to make his own movies, he invested a lot of energy and financial resources, until now he finally has more confidence.
And as the box office of "Journey of Laughter" is getting better and better, the investors of the film are naturally very happy. During the production of the film, Xu Cheng has always been very optimistic about the convenience, regardless of whether it is the director or the crew. Xu Cheng has a lot of authority. With the joint efforts of everyone, this film can achieve its current results.
In the last two days, the investors of "Laughing Journey" have begun to discuss long-term cooperation with Xu Cheng. After all, the first film is so successful, the film party must hope to develop a sequel.
Xu Cheng is also very grateful for the other party's continued support for him, and both parties have the intention of cooperation.
This also has many advantages. The in-depth cooperation between the two parties is more conducive to the development of subsequent film works. After all, it is better to always use the same actors and crew for a series of works. This will make it easier for audience fans to accept, and the copyright There will be no trouble on the issue.
Both parties cooperate and achieve a win-win situation. This is the best development direction.
However, although Xu Cheng’s contact with the investor is very smooth now, a project involves many people and many things, and of course some people will make complaints.
Such as the director of "Journey of Laughter" and some crew members.
When filming the movie, Xu Cheng was considered the only big-name actor, so he repeatedly participated in the changes of the plot and the details of the shooting. Although the director, screenwriter and other employees were dissatisfied, they could only silently Endure it.
But now the movie is on fire, and everyone's status and status have also improved a lot. At this time, there are rumors that Xu Cheng will cooperate with investors to lead the development of this project.
Even if the director and crew will not change, they still use the original crew, but many people always feel uncomfortable.
Why did you Xu Cheng suddenly turn from an actor to a boss? When you were not the boss, you gave pointers to the crew. Now that you are the boss, don’t you want to put pressure on everyone in the crew?
This feeling is not good.
Especially directors and screenwriters, they have long been dissatisfied with Xu Cheng, and now they are even more depressed due to the change of status and status.
So, when Xu Cheng and the investors of "Journey of Laughter" discussed the follow-up cooperation, someone broke this balance.
The one who couldn't bear it in the end was the director.
Although Xu Cheng has repeatedly stated that in future work, he will honestly only be an actor, but such a guarantee is obviously not convincing.
What is even more frustrating is that the identity of the director is not simple. He has an inextricable relationship with the investor. It is impossible for the investor to ignore the director directly.
Therefore, everyone entangled with each other and wrangled back and forth for a long time, but ultimately failed to reach a plan that satisfies everyone.
In desperation, this matter can only be temporarily stranded.
"Okay, I'll talk about the follow-up things later. Now the movie is still in theaters and the box office is good. Everyone should go and play for a few days. Well, I booked a 10-day tour in Thailand for you. Well, now it’s not for this kind of pre-fault."
In the end, the big investor of "Journey of Laughter" came forward to stop this unsuccessful meeting.
After such a disturbance, Xu Cheng also temporarily gave up the cooperation, and simply went abroad to play.

After all, are all good movies. If you have the ability, you can choose to watch two more movies. It is also a good thing for fans and audiences who really like movies.
In the film market, this kind of healthy competition and the atmosphere of mutual recommendation and sharing is also very rare.
Especially in some popular periods, the two blockbuster films released at the same time are almost like enemies. The fighting is very fierce. The fight of various resources and contacts, the use of network power to discredit each other, etc., are generally noisy in public opinion. Very lively.
