Chapter 671: Change of Public Opinion
"Impossible! Never accept it!!"
"You can take a short vacation and just retreat to the background. What's going on? For ten years, basically every year, I've been waiting for your new work, Lin Qiu!!"
"Holy shit!!"
"Ahhhhhhhhh! Who will persuade Lin Qiu!"
"Isn't there anyone who can give Tang Anning some advice..."
"Is this a mutual decision between them as husband and wife? I don't accept it!"
…
The sudden explosion on the entire Internet was something that Lin Qiu and Changan Film and Television Company could have expected.
In this way, the so-called rumors were no longer rumors, because within an hour after Lin Qiu's handwritten letter was sent out, basically all the actors from Chang'an Film and Television Company, Liya, Chen You, Qu Wen, Fang Zhou and others, They all forwarded the blog immediately and wrote blessings.
[Liya]: See you in five years! See you there or not!
[Chen You]: Have a good rest and come back in better condition.
[Ark]: Director Lin is preparing for the Big Plan, don’t panic!
[Qu Wen]: Boss, have a good rest~
There are comments similar to this under the blogs of these well-known Chang'an actors.
"I bet you already knew this, right?"
"Can you please give Lin Qiu some advice? I can't live without Lin Qiu's movies!"
"Don't waste Lin Qiu's talent!!"
"Unacceptable! Unacceptable!"
…
Five years!
When they think that within five years, they may not see the movie directed by Lin Qiu released, these Lin Qiu fans can't help but have their eyes darkened.
For a time, not only Xiazhou, but also friends from the film industry in Jiuzhou sent messages asking what was going on with Lin Qiu. The entire Jiuzhou network was abuzz with excitement, but film and television companies around the world were happy. After all, Lin Qiu was missing, at least. In the next five years, there will be one less competitor!
Under what circumstances did this crazy discussion gradually calm down?
It's because of the "old thief"'s forwarded text on social media.
[(Question)(Question)(Question) Should I also take a five-year break? 】
I blanch! !
As soon as they saw this news, it can be said that countless fans of the old thief around the world were trembling! !
"No!!!!"
"If you dare to rest, I will spray you until you die!"
"Old thief, please! Stop!!"
"It's okay for Lin Qiu to rest. You must not rest, old thief. I will never slander you again..."
"It's understandable that Lin Qiu should take a break. After all, she's just newly married. She needs to take a break for now. If you dare to take a break, we'll tear down the Immortal Palace. We'll do what we say!"
"Xianque:???"
…
It has to be said that the influence of "Old Thief" is even more terrifying than that of Lin Qiu, with fans all over Kyushu.
And more importantly, Lin Qiu took a five-year break from making new films. It was normal for a film director. At worst, he would miss a few movies and not watch them. But the influence of the old thief now spreads across all fields.
Let’s not talk about novels. This is Lao Zei’s basic plan, with online articles and physical books published non-stop throughout the year.
There is also anime with equally huge influence.
Throughout the year, these animations have become the foundation of Chang'an's life, and they have also become the objects of animation fans around the world. It's really not that big of a problem to miss two movies, and there are talented directors like Ye Zhiyuan who can replace them.
But in the field of novels and animation, without the old thieves, who are they looking at?
No need to watch!
As soon as these words came out, the public's resentment towards Lin Qiu's rest subsided a lot, but soon the old thief said on his blog that he was joking...
But this joke can scare so many old thieves and die-hard fans into having heart attacks and they all collapse on their chairs.
Lin Qiu had no intention of stopping the old thief's creation.
In fact, for Lin Qiu, the old thief's works were the least troublesome.
Copying this kind of work can be completed very quickly at Lin Qiu's current speed. It is not like shooting a movie. Even if you have past life experience, a movie has to go through a period of time from project establishment to shooting to release. In a short period of time, Lin Qiu's energy consumption was also huge.
After officially taking a break, Lin Qiu would write and draw in his free time. It was not a work pressure at all.
Five years is enough time for Lin Qiu to complete some long-form works, especially animations.
For example, the classic "Four Migrant Workers Comics".
"Detective Conan", "Naruto", "Bleach" and "One Piece".
They are all classic works that need time to ferment and be released. In the next five years, they can be gradually presented to the public.
…
In addition to the discussion about Lin Qiu and Tang Anning's upcoming break, another point is also being discussed, and that is the "Big Plan" mentioned by Fang Zhou and several other Chang'an actors.
It seemed that Lin Qiu was preparing a big plan during this break!
This big plan will be officially announced after the release of "The Shawshank Redemption", the last movie Lin Qiu is currently filming.
This is not a secret within the company, and it can minimize the public opinion about Lin Qiu's break, and continue to arouse global fans' expectations for Lin Qiu's new works, even five years later.
This plan is the [Kyushu Classic] plan.
At that time, Lin Qiu will release 9 classic movies from various states and 9 classic novels from various states in the name of co-branding with Lao Thief, which will be the pinnacle of Lin Qiu and Lao Thief's entire career!
Once this plan is announced, it will surely make thousands of fans look forward to it, especially those Lin Qiu has never made local style movies, such as Indiana!
The styles of Lin Qiu and Lao Zei's works have spread across Xiazhou, Xizhou, Hanzhou, Mizhou, Yingzhou, Yingzhou, and Ohio.
But works related to Texas and Indiana have never appeared.
It can be said that although Lao Zei and Lin Qiu are undoubtedly from Xiazhou, fans of Lao Zei and Lin Qiu in major states around the world hope that they can create works in their own state style.
Seeing that there are works such as the Sherlock Holmes series and the Harry Potter series in Yingzhou, wouldn't readers in other states be jealous?
… The aftermath is still continuing.
It didn't have much impact on Lin Qiu himself, after all, he had been concentrating on filming "The Shawshank Redemption" in Xizhou.
The entire crew, when filming this movie, was striving for perfection and put in 120 points of effort to show this classic masterpiece in the theater next year.
But the impact on others was huge, and it lasted for a month.
Almost all Changan actors were asked about Lin Qiu's announcement of a break when they attended public events, but it was not a topic that could not be discussed, especially the sentence "Director Lin's body has been overloaded in recent years", which directly made many fans who wanted to stop Lin Qiu from taking a break speechless.
Lin Qiu's attitude towards movies in the past ten years is obvious.
People say that they are ill and want to take a break. You, a fan, don't let them take a break. It is morally excessive and untenable.
The body is the foundation. Without a good body, no matter how much talent you have, it is useless.
Thinking about it this way, Lin Qiu's break is reasonable, and naturally the public opinion has gradually calmed down a lot, and the number of rational fans has gradually increased, but emotionally they still feel very sorry!
As a result, these fans can't help but think that Lin Qiu will bring one or two masterpieces that are enough to go down in history. If Lin Qiu is a robot, how great would that be?
After all, it's not like he's quitting the film industry and retiring, so after thinking about it, he can only bite his teeth and accept it.
Five years later, Lin Qiu will be 35 years old and in the golden age of his directing career. By then, the public will have higher expectations of Lin Qiu.
"Well, five years is five years. It's better than never seeing Lin Qiu's movies again."
"Will Lin Qiu's rest affect the quality of Ye Zhiyuan's movies? After all, Ye Zhiyuan's movie scripts are all written by Lin Qiu..."
"So is Zhou Kai's Marvel series..."
"Then the popular anime, Slam Dunk, Attack on Titan, etc., without Lin Qiu, Lao Zei alone can't do it..."
"Mad... Suddenly I felt the importance of Lin Qiu..."
"In fact, the original Chang'an was supported by Lin Qiu alone, right?"
...
Before Lin Qiu announced his rest, many people around the world actually believed that Lao Zei's achievements crushed Lin Qiu.
But Lin Qiu is the real skeleton and soul of Chang'an, the entertainment empire.
How to describe it, it's like Lin Qiu is the kind of human emperor in fantasy novels, and Lao Zei is a fairyland power who doesn't eat the fireworks of the world, two different directions.
Fortunately, Lin Qiu is not completely oblivious to what is happening outside the window, otherwise, without Lin Qiu, the operation of the entire Chang'an will have problems.
This is a film and television company built on the basis of Lin Qiu.
As soon as this news came out, the most direct impact was that the expectations for the three movies that Lin Qiu was going to release before his break were directly topped! !
"Interstellar" at the end of December, "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" during the Spring Festival next year, and "The Shawshank Redemption", which is expected to be Lin Qiu's last work before his break in May!
The popularity of the three movies has soared to a rare height since September and October this year.
You know, the movie "Interstellar", even without this kind of popularity, will still attract fans all over the world. The reason is very simple. This is a science fiction masterpiece!
Before this, Lin Qiu had never touched a movie with the theme of science fiction, but it does not mean that Lin Qiu cannot shoot it.
Whether it is "Titanic" or the "Batman" series, Lin Qiu has handed in a perfect answer that cannot be more perfect.
Science fiction itself has a wide audience, not to mention that the co-writer of this movie has a name that is familiar to the whole world, Lao Zei!
There is no need to elaborate on how deep Lao Zei's attainments in science fiction are. "The Martian" and "The Three-Body Problem" series are still science fiction masterpieces to this day.
The name of Lao Zei among the co-writers means that the plot of this movie cannot be bad.
In addition, with Lin Qiu directing and Changan's special effects production, fans really don't believe that this movie can't be a classic.
Especially when "Batman: The Dark Knight" completed a gorgeous word-of-mouth counterattack and eventually broke through 40 billion in global box office, the trust and enthusiasm of fans around the world for Lin Qiu reached the highest peak in history!
This enthusiasm is just like the enthusiasm of Lao Zei's fans for Lao Zei. In their eyes, Lao Zei is a god!
At present, Lin Qiu has also evolved to this stage.
Changan Film and Television Company took advantage of the situation to add fuel to the flames, and didn't care about the problem of fans' high expectations. As soon as the trailer was released, the fan group was immediately fascinated by the gorgeous movie pictures!
Although it is still in the trailer style of Chang'an, not much plot can be seen.
But the special effects and pictures alone are worth buying this movie ticket!
…
Perhaps in terms of hardcore and sci-fi ideas, this "Interstellar" cannot compare with many sci-fi works, but in terms of the film level, "Interstellar" is what Lin Qiu thinks is the top-level sci-fi film.
Whether it is the plot, the soundtrack, or the picture, it has elevated sci-fi movies to a new height.
Changan has even spent a huge amount of money to create the special effects of this sci-fi movie!
The core of this film is a family film, so even if it is a sci-fi movie, the audience is still very wide and not niche at all. Whether it is a sense of mission for the future of mankind or the deep affection between father and daughter, they are emotions that everyone can understand.
And the most different point is what, in ordinary sci-fi works, the sci-fi part is cold.
But this "Interstellar" can be said to be full of scientific warmth, finding emotional resonance in the essence of life, allowing the audience to empathize, this is the success of this movie.
Although it is a science fiction film, the background of this film is not set in the future era that is difficult for everyone to understand. Therefore, when fans saw some scenes in the trailer, they were excited and couldn't wait to go to the theater to find out, but they could only wait quietly until December.
...
As time passed, the public gradually began to understand Lin Qiu's decision to take a temporary break.
In addition to Lin Qiu, Tang Anning's Jiuzhou Tour Concert was sold out, and it was difficult to get a ticket!
In the past five years, everyone estimated that Lin Qiu and Tang Anning would have a child. When Tang Anning recovered and held a concert next time, when they saw Tang Anning again, maybe Tang Anning at that time would become completely different.
Fortunately, Tang Anning said at the concert that although he temporarily withdrew from the entertainment industry, the music would not stop.
When everyone heard this, hey?
A blessing in disguise, isn't it?
In the past, Lin Qiu had no time or energy to release songs and albums. Now, let alone a beautifully produced album, he should have at least a few songs. The last time Lin Qiu released an album was a few years ago. If Lin Qiu can release one or two new albums, that would be great.
But who can tell what will happen in the future? For Lin Qiu's fans who focus on the present, appreciating the works before the official break is the top priority.
In October, the first season of "Pokemon" was officially broadcast on Changan APP and on TV at the same time!
This is not an adult anime, but more like an anime with the style of "Digimon".
But what the Changan Animation production team themselves did not expect was that once this "Pokemon" was broadcast, it directly reproduced the myth of "Digimon"!
…
