My autobiography is definitely not a tragedy!-Chapter 1005 - 584: Never Forget Your Original Aspiration (Part 2)
Combining cheap special effects and disastrous acting by popular stars, we successfully turned a big-budget IP into a personal idol MV lasting an hour and a half...
Although it’s clear to anyone with eyes that this is just a money-laundering scheme, there are deeper reasons for the failure.
But what shocked Fan Shigang was that someone still actually wanted to stubbornly try a second time with such a flop?!
"A flop movie?"
Faced with Yan Feng’s suspicious gaze, what could Song Bin say to explain?
Could he say that the top executives made this decision for strategic considerations?
As for what strategic considerations...
Well, he’s just a tactical executor...
...
"Mr. Meng, should I take this job or not?" 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
Meanwhile, in a certain coffee shop.
Another tactical executor, Director Han, Han Fei, is also seeking tactical guidance from the strategist of this strategy...
"Honestly, I’m grateful for Chairman Gao’s recognition. Without Chairman Gao and Lingjing Media, there wouldn’t be the Han Fei of today!
I had already decided that no matter what the second work was, as long as Chairman Gao needed me, I would definitely be there when called.
But who would have thought it would be..."
He had a wry smile, looking at the culprit leisurely drinking milk tea across from him.
"Mr. Meng, you might not know, in the film industry, once a work adaptation fails, the probability of a failed remake greatly increases.
After all, the first impression is set, and not many viewers who got burned are willing to give the work a second chance, fearing they’ll get burned again.
So, apart from a few well-known classics, hardly any works get remade multiple times.
Even for classics, the surprise and impact of the first viewing are best, unless the remake far exceeds the original, audiences familiar with the plot will only have higher demands and lower tolerance.
For example, the effect of remaking Jin Yong’s works deteriorates each time.
Now Chairman Gao actually wants to remake the recently failed ’Magic City Fortress,’ and in my opinion, that’s too risky."
"Slurp~ Hmm! What you say makes a lot of sense." Meng Lang slurps his milk tea.
Tastes good, he’ll bring a cup back for Lawyer Lin~
"Actually, if we continue filming ’Pegasus 2,’ not to say we’d make a killing, but with the reputation of the first film, at least it won’t lose money!
I really can’t figure out why Chairman Gao would take such a gamble."
Han Fei looked helpless, with a tone full of complaints.
Why? Of course, because a little literary chic can’t save Earth...
Before there was TVB, then there was CCTV, the world doesn’t lack literary chic, it’s the gate to future sci-fi that we need to break through!
With Xu Jingsong’s downfall, the troubled Nomadic Film also declared bankruptcy liquidation. Among the liquidated assets was the adaptation rights of ’Magic City Fortress.’
However, anyone could see that this work had failed to a degree that it has almost no adaptation value left.
So Lingjing Media basically bought these "poor quality assets" at a dirt-cheap price.
Meng Lang’s purpose... naturally was to pave the way for future warfare.
In his earlier "self-contained world," Meng Lang’s vision was limited, thinking of making a movie as a cover to quietly build a ’Meng Mountain Fortress,’ a safe haven for himself and his family in the apocalypse.
Later, he realized, how could any egg remain unbroken under a toppled nest?
If Earth collapses, withdrawing to an isolated place will only slightly delay death.
In ’And Then There Were None,’ there’s a description...
[At some unknown point, our floating railguns already filled Earth’s orbit.
The Huanwu City defensive circle is lined with turrets, third-generation Guardian robots are everywhere, unmanned seventh-generation fighter jets cover the sky...]
Just the "Huanwu City Defensive Circle" indicates that coastal areas where ocean beasts land have most likely been completely breached, and the enemy has pushed the battlefield to the inland regions located centrally.
No matter if there ever was a ’Magic City Fortress’ in that world, it’s very likely become ruins under this brutal war.
But the good news is, in the next series ’Daughter of Time,’ Xiao Yu friend goes on a rampage.
Utilizing the Night Demon Clan’s mind control skills, they cause chaos within the enemy, creating the spectacle of small monsters battling small monsters.
Even the arrogant absolute-top had to unite with the Night Demon Clan seeking self-preservation.
Not to mention the giant lizard stubbornly changing the battlefield environment, crawling out from the star core.
At least in this half of the game...
The advantage is ours!
The brothers’ step-by-step technological accumulation has finally triggered a qualitative change at this moment.
Meng Lang doesn’t expect to completely eradicate the Night Demon Clan from Earth’s vast oceans in a short time, offensive and defensive shifts, but at least there’s hope to preserve the main land-based survival space for humanity.
He needs strategic depth, needs the main civilization of the Eurasian Continent to maintain strategic space integrity and combat potential under the assault of Night Demon Clan’s artificial beasts.
So the coast will be the focus of contention for both sides next!
’Magic City Fortress,’ which flopped so hard it trended, just naturally entered his sight...
Do you think he wants to remake a romance disguised as sci-fi?
No, this is clearly a "tactical discussion meeting on a partial campaign against the Night Demon Clan" disguised as a movie!
However, what he needs is naturally not an isolated coastal fortress, but the feasibility of relying on several or dozens of major city clusters to study and build a future version of the ’Normandy Line’ or ’Pacific Barrier.’
