The power of Jia Yueting PPT, Americans finally saw it.

A capital storm is sweeping the American electric vehicle manufacturing industry.

In the past two years, American electric vehicle entrepreneurs, including Jia Yueting, took advantage of the regulatory gap of SPAC and took away billions of dollars in the secondary market with a PPT. Now, the SEC has decided to plug this loophole.

Recently, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) concluded a 60-day public consultation period and put forward some proposed guidelines for SPAC, especially those on disclosure, marketing practice and third-party supervision. If approved, the entry threshold of SPAC will be raised, and the gap between SPAC and the traditional IPO supervision will be narrowed. This probably means that this wave of SPAC "ebbs".

One of the main regulatory targets of this new policy is the American electric vehicle industry.Since mid-2020, the listing activities of SPAC have exploded. At present, more than 300 companies have been listed through merger with SPAC. Among them, the most popular field of SPAC is the electric vehicle industry. Nikola, Lordstown Motors, Lucid Motors, Karma, Fisker, Canoo, Hyliion, Proterra and Faraday Future are all listed through SPAC.

However, after raising a large amount of funds through SPAC, these car companies failed to fulfill their original performance promises, and even many car companies have not been able to mass-produce so far, so their stock prices have plummeted, causing investors to suffer huge losses.According to the data of research firm Audit Analytics, since the beginning of 2021, six companies, including Canoo, Faraday Future, Lordstown Motors, Nikola and Lucid, have disclosed that they have been investigated by the SEC, and at least three automobile or battery manufacturers have issued warnings of going concern.

SPAC is short for Special Purpose Acquisition Company, that is, special purpose acquisition company. The listing of SPAC refers to the establishment of a new cash shell company as the main body of listing, and the acquisition of one (or more) private companies with the raised funds after IPO to realize the curve listing of the private companies, so that the sponsors and investors of SPAC can realize the return on investment.

To put it simply, SPAC is the reverse operation of backdoor listing. First, the management team sets up a shell company without any business, then carries out roadshows, fundraising and IPO, and then looks for potential M&A targets within 12 to 24 months. Compared with traditional IPO, SPAC is attractive for its short cycle, low threshold and flexible trading.

In fact, the listing of SPAC is nothing new. Historically, US stocks have had two SPAC listing climaxes: the first time in 2007, and the second time since 2020. The environment of these two climaxes is somewhat similar: after the crisis, the Federal Reserve continued to implement loose monetary policy in order to stimulate the economy, and a large amount of funds poured in, which led to an increase in the valuation of enterprises in the capital market. The flexible mechanism design of SPAC allows open market investors to invest in the primary market and make higher profits, so the demand for SPAC has greatly increased.

To put it simply, the valuation of the secondary market is at a historical high, and the valuation premium of the primary and secondary markets is high, which makes the assets of the primary market more attractive. In 2021, the overall PE of S&P 500 was 32.49 times, which was in the historical 92.53% quantile. In 2020, the value multiple of S&P 500 enterprises will be 16.8X, reaching a historical high. This also means that the valuation of the secondary market is at a historical high level, which makes the assets in the primary market more attractive and enhances the motivation of private enterprises to go public for financing.

Then in this upsurge, electric vehicle companies have become the most sought after objects.As for the reason, this has to mention Tesla. Tesla’s share price has increased sevenfold in 2020, more than twice that of Toyota, the automobile giant. The high rate of return has stimulated investors, who are frantically looking for the "next Tesla".

At the same time, as countries around the world list the timetable for promoting the electrification of automobiles from 2030 to 2040, traditional automobile manufacturers continue to increase investment in new energy vehicles. More and more people expect that electric vehicles and trucks will soon begin to replace cars powered by fossil fuels.

For start-up car companies, building a car is originally a capital and technology-intensive industry, which requires a lot of money. Although they have their own vision, many companies have not yet developed prototypes, and it may be difficult for them to find investors if they raise funds through traditional IPO. Sam bursa Mead, an auto industry analyst at Guidehouse Insights, once said, "The problem of these companies is that many of them have not reached a certain level, and it is difficult to be truly considered as a highly feasible enterprise. 」

Therefore, in the face of the SPAC boom at that time, the best response of these electric vehicle companies is to strike while the iron is hot, take advantage of the optimism of current investors, and seize the opportunity to obtain financing quickly.

It is in this context that a large number of electric vehicle companies, such as Nikola, Lordstown Motors, Lucid Motors, Karma, Fisker, Canoo, Hyliion, Proterra and Faraday Future, went public.

This craze has even spread to other kinds of innovative means of transportation. According to statistics, in 2021, five flying car companies were listed through SPAC, including American flying car companies Archer and Joby, German flying car company Lilium, British flying car company Vertical, and flying car company Eve under Embraer.

However, just as the listing of SPAC was in full swing, the SEC began to strengthen supervision because it was aware of the "loopholes" in the SPAC rules.

Compared with IPO, SPAC listed companies can give forward-looking guidance to investors before listing, which is regarded as a regulatory arbitrage around the "safe haven" rule. The so-called "safe haven" principle is a rule promulgated by the United States in 1995. Listed companies mention some future plans in their disclosure information, and contain some standard wording, such as "note that our statement about the future may not come true", so even if the final result is not realized, investors can’t sue. Traditional IPO is excluded from the "safe haven" principle.

This provides SPAC with operating space. SPAC’s operation mode is to set up a shell company first, then raise funds to go public, and then find some high-quality assets to put into the shell within 12 to 24 months. Because the listing of SPAC has been completed, technically speaking, this transaction is a merger rather than an IPO, and the principle of "safe harbor" can be applied.Therefore, the management of many acquired targets can tell the company’s vision and convince investors that this is a good investment. Even if the final forecast is not realized, it is difficult for investors to sue listed companies.

In March 2022, the SEC published a draft regulation on SPAC, including five aspects. The most important change is that the financial statements required by SPAC should be consistent with those of traditional IPO, which is an important step towards creating more transparency. At the same time, the principle of "safe harbor" is no longer applicable to the disclosure of performance guidance information of SPAC company.

At the same time, there are a lot of insider trading such as information asymmetry, securities fraud and interest transfer in SPAC companies from listing to asset acquisition and injection. In particular, many SPAC companies can double their share prices by market rumors without substantial asset injection (acquisition of enterprises), which is highly speculative and makes a large number of investors admit their losses and leave.

Just as the SEC strengthened supervision, many listed companies began to expose problems. It is understood that because of the fiery concept of SPAC and electric vehicles, the share prices of many electric vehicle companies rose sharply at the beginning of listing, but later they were investigated by the SEC due to factors such as difficult fulfillment of mass production commitments, and their share prices subsequently performed poorly.

"Since 2021, many SPAC companies have deliberately exaggerated the performance and future growth space of the acquired assets in the process of acquiring assets, resulting in losses for the pursuers. An international hedge fund manager said.

Since listing, the share prices of these companies have fallen by 60% to 90% from the high point, which is far greater than the market fluctuation. Among them, Lordstown has the largest decline, approaching 95%. Its current share price is 1.54 USD/share, and its latest total market value is 313 million USD. Faraday Future (FF) share price is $2.27/share, down 89% from the high point ($20.75/share), with a market value of $686 million.

Among them, at the end of March 2022, Faraday announced in the future that some company management team members and employees were summoned by the SEC for allegedly releasing inaccurate information to investors. The US media speculated that this is related to Faraday exaggerating the number of reservations for its upcoming vehicle FF 91 to investors in the future.The investigation found that only a few hundred of the declared 14,000 FF 91 orders have been paid.

The financial report shows that the net loss of FF in the first quarter was about 153 million US dollars, compared with 76 million US dollars in the same period last year. By the end of the first quarter, FF’s total assets were about $706 million, including $276 million in cash. According to the company, part of the reason for the decrease in cash is the repayment of $97 million bills and accrued interest as planned.

In terms of orders, by the end of March 2022, only 401 users had paid a deposit of $1,500, and these deposits were not binding. If customers change their minds, they must return them in full.

In fact, this wave of start-up electric vehicle craze in the United States is somewhat similar to the "new power to build cars" that began to rise in China around 2016. At that time, there were nearly 300 automobile start-ups in China. For a long time, they were called "PPT cars" by the media because their cars were not mass-produced. Later, after big waves, there are only less than 10 such as Wei Xiaoli.

Although many American start-ups have been listed through SPAC, they will inevitably go through the process of shuffling. At the beginning, many start-ups saw Tesla’s great commercial success and began to try to enter the automobile industry. However, they underestimated the complexity and difficulties. Automobile is an industry that requires extremely high capital, technology and supply chain.

In this regard, Tesla CEO Musk said in an interview that "the history of car startups is terrible, and they are almost bankrupt. This is the graveyard of an incredibly large startup. There are hundreds of car companies that people have never heard of. At present, in the United States, the only two American auto companies that have not gone bankrupt are Ford and Tesla. Tesla almost went bankrupt many times, and I can’t count it. 」

At the same time, he also said, "These new car companies I saw rushed in and tried to produce a high-volume car without ever producing a car before. It’s like going to the Olympics without practicing your sports. You won’t win. This is crazy. You need to start small, make small-scale trial and error, and make sure that you have a large amount of reserve capital. Then gradually accumulate experience through the stupid things you did at the beginning. Over time, gradually reduce mistakes. Otherwise, it will bring huge financial losses. 」

In fact, the situation encountered by these start-up electric vehicle companies in the United States is not just a challenge for the company. On a larger scale, this is mainly because the United States no longer has advantages in supply chain and manufacturing, resulting in high manufacturing cost, low efficiency and poor quality.

Li Bin, CEO of Weilai Automobile, once said that Tesla once encountered a "productivity hell" around 2019, and life and death hung by a thread. There is basically no such thing in China. As long as there is a large order, if you give the car companies a few months, they will have no problem building multiple factories at the same time, and the parts manufacturers will also produce them for you if they work overtime, which will test the industrial and manufacturing foundation of a country. It is this difference that leads to the efficiency of Tesla’s China factory, which is much higher than that in the United States.

After the "sweet period" after SPAC went public, the new car-making forces in the United States will face the test of mass production and delivery, and they will usher in a real reshuffle in the increasingly involuted competition. However, judging from the global competition pattern, there is really not much time left for them to grow up.

"lethal hostage" issued a special edition of "Sun Honglei" in reality.

 


Big brother Sun Honglei

    The film of criminal emotion, which is produced by Ning Hao and directed by Cheng Er, has been scheduled for national release on August 17th, starring Sun Honglei, Wang Luodan, Dahong Ni, Yang Kun, Zhang Mo and Gao Ye. On July 23rd, the film released a special feature called "lethal hostage". In the special edition, Sun Honglei said that "coming out of the mountain again" was an excellent crime-themed script that made him have the impulse to play. Director Cheng Er, starring Wang Luodan and Yang Kun also revealed that his films were "cold-hearted" professional drug dealers. Sun Honglei even claimed that his life, like the black boss in lethal hostage, belongs to a "unyielding" real man.

Sun Honglei returned to rivers and lakes for many years as a bad brother to create a tender drug dealer.

    Nearly ten years ago, Sun Honglei appeared in a TV series directed by Gao Qunshu, portraying the standard gangster in detail. In the special edition of "The Return of the Big Brother" in lethal hostage, Sun Honglei said, "Do you have the strength to fight with my Liu Huaqiang?" For the prologue, the special edition reviews a series of his images of "fighting the boss": hitting the forehead with a beer bottle, pointing at people at gunpoint, slashing people with a knife without blinking an eye, and lighting a cigarette with an elusive smile … Sun Honglei’s tough guy profile and solid performance skills have made his image of "big brother" deeply rooted in people’s hearts, but in recent years, the audience found that he almost never played a gangster role again, and he mostly showed people with a relaxed and humorous image.

    In "lethal hostage", Sun Honglei returns to the Jianghu and plays a decisive professional drug dealer. He resolutely rises to the top in the gang struggle, and his warm heart is inspired by "Xiao An" (Wang Luodan), trying to clean himself up and return to the right path. In the special edition, Sun Honglei said that this "coming out of the mountain again" was an excellent crime-themed script: "Every actor has a plot to play the big brother, and I especially like the gangster image in lethal hostage. This is China’s truly original crime-themed movie, which is very sincere."

Wang Luodan’s evaluation partner Sun Honglei: I will make the same choice.

    "lethal hostage" tells the story of a drug trafficking accident at the border between China and Myanmar. The drug dealer took the girl Xiao An hostage and raised her (played by Wang Luodan). They fell in love and got married. After many years, the drug dealer who wants to wash his hands of it tries to finish the last vote with Wang Luodan under the heavy siege of the police (Zhang Mo), the gang (Yang Kun) and the resentment of Xiao ‘an’s father (Dahong Ni), and he is desperate to survive.

    In the special edition of "The Return of Big Brother", many masters have commented on the role of the black boss in Sun Honglei: director Cheng Er thinks that Sun Honglei’s play is not only a professional criminal, but also a tangled and contradictory "tender and tough guy"; Wang Luodan, who has a lot of emotional opponents with Sun Honglei, commented that his partner is a "cold-hearted uncle"; Yang Kun, who plays the pervert killer, said that the performance in Sun Honglei’s film will resonate with the audience and get a powerful shock. In the special edition, Sun Honglei also said that his life belongs to a real man who is "unyielding" like the black boss in lethal hostage. "I will make the same choice in the movie."

  The Mercedes-Benz woman who defended her rights in Xi ‘an was accused of defaulting on her money. She was once blocked into the police station for consultation but was not involved in a criminal case.

  A few days ago, online articles and Weibo news reported that Ms. W (a pseudonym), a female car owner who was sitting on the hood of a Mercedes-Benz in Xi ‘an, was named Xue Moumou, and was suspected of fraud and 7 million yuan of money escaping. Yesterday, a media survey found that Xue Moumou mentioned in the net post was indeed involved in economic disputes, but no evidence has been found that Xue Moumou was involved in criminal offences or public events.

  On the evening of April 19th, Zhou Xin, a related person of Shanghai Xinzhan Advertising Decoration Engineering Co., Ltd., who claimed to have an economic dispute of nearly 200,000 yuan with Xue Moumou, identified Ms. W and Xue Moumou as the same person, and provided a video with Xue Moumou’s face and Xue Moumou’s signature document. At the same time, she said that Xue Moumou and Ms. W had similar looks and handwriting.

  However, Ms. W and her friend Xu have not confirmed whether she is Xue Moumou as mentioned in the net post. Xu only said that the net post was described as "innuendo". The two did not respond to "whether they are involved in the aforementioned dispute". (Source: The Paper)

  More than 150 sets of village party secretaries involved in the real estate were investigated and dealt with.

  The reporter learned from Yinchuan Public Security Bureau of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region that Yinchuan police successfully cracked a case of organizing and leading an underworld organization by a village party secretary in one year, cracked 20 criminal cases and arrested 34 people.

  At the beginning of March, 2018, at the construction site of a residential area in Daxin Town, xingqing district City, Yinchuan City, some members of the two committees of Daxin Village, village team leaders and villagers attempted to forcibly undertake the project by illegally blocking work. More than 50 people at the scene seriously affected the construction progress by means of obstruction and nuisance, disrupted the economic order of the jurisdiction, and beat the police who came to deal with it according to law, causing one policeman to be injured. The police made a decisive attack and criminally detained 11 suspects.

  With the deepening of the case investigation, the police investigating the case found that this case is not a case, and it is likely that there is a criminal gang involved in using family power to erode rural grassroots political power. After an in-depth investigation by the police, a criminal gang involved in black gangs, headed by Na Moumou, former secretary of the Party branch of Daxin Village, and Wang Mou, former director of the village, gradually surfaced, relying on family forces to erode the rural grassroots political power.

  It was found that Na Moumou used family power to cultivate cronies Wang, Guo and Chen as directors and captains of Daxin Village during his tenure as Party branch secretary, and gradually formed an underworld organization headed by Na Moumou and Wang Mou, with 26 members including his second brothers Na Mou, Guo Moumou and Chen Moumou. This gang-related organization has eroded the grass-roots political power of Daxin Village for a long time, and has carried out illegal and criminal activities such as gathering people to disturb social order, making troubles, extortion, fraud, forced trading, occupation of posts, etc., forcibly contracting projects, deliberately beating construction workers, violently interfering with normal law enforcement, and seriously affecting the economic development of the jurisdiction.

  Up to now, the police have arrested 37 people, the procuratorate has arrested 34 people and seized more than 150 properties involved, involving more than 50 million yuan.

The top three in the box office of China film history: all are "amateur" directors, but they are also expert product managers.

  Author: Gu Zhenguan/Editor: Zhang Fengyi

  A few days ago, Ne Zha was confirmed to be the best international film for China.

  The summer file of "Nezha" went all the way back, and finally rushed into the TOP3 of domestic box office. At this point, the top 3 domestic box office was contracted by "non-professional" directors. Jason Wu, the director of Wolf Warriors 2, studied martial arts, jiaozi, the director of Nezha, studied medicine, and Frant Gwo, the director of The Wandering Earth, studied law. This interesting phenomenon has also aroused heated discussion among netizens.

  Although these three directors are not trained, in fact, their experiences are inextricably linked with the film industry.

  Moreover, heroes don’t ask the source, and it is not a myth that good movies sell well. Behind the success of the three films, there is the intention of creating heroes in the times, and it is also inseparable from the ingenuity of the main creative team. In the "content is king" film market, all three films won the respect for quality and the internet thinking of "product" sales.

  In fact, as the top three directors in China film history, it doesn’t matter whether they are trained or not, what matters is whether they have awe of the film. Interestingly, these three non-professional directors not only have awe of movies, but also fear of the market. This may be the key to their becoming the top three, and it is also the reason why we should give higher expectations.

  The Victory of Values under "Content is King"

  As early as 2017, the concept of "mass shooting era" appeared. The so-called "mass shooting era" means that it seems that everyone can be a director and make movies. But now, the market has entered the "post-auction era". After the ebb of capital hot money, the China film market has ushered in the stage of "content is king".

  In the "post-mass shooting era", the biggest threshold for cross-border directors is the quality of content. Among the top three domestic box office films, "Wolf Warriors 2" scored 7.1 points with a box office of 5.68 billion; Nezha scored 8.5 points, with a box office of 4.97 billion; The Wandering Earth scored 7.9 points, with a box office of 4.65 billion. Excellent content production is the prerequisite for the three films to achieve high box office, which also reflects that the positive correlation coefficient between word-of-mouth and box office in the film market is improving.

  Among the three films, Wolf Warriors 2 and The Wandering Earth both have the main melody. Among them, the success of "Wolf Warriors 2" is attributed to the factors of "the right time, the right place and the right people". For example, at that time, the audience was tired of the traffic niche, and the tough guy movies in the market were blank. However, Wolf Warriors 2 is a highly completed film in terms of script, action and special effects. In addition, the creation of "Chinese hero" makes it easier for the audience to feel the sense of security and pride brought about by the rising status of their home country.

  If Liu Guoliang’s sentence "All victories are the victory of values" is used to evaluate, then "Wolf Warriors 2" is indeed stained with the bonus when the main theme film just rose. In contrast, The Wandering Earth’s main melody is not so strong. It won the box office in the Spring Festival file, not only because of the feelings of home country and Chinese’s nostalgia for his homeland, but also because it is a truly domestic sci-fi blockbuster.

  As for Nezha, its success lies more in the "new compilation" of fairy tales. The story of "returning the bones to the flesh", which has been told for thousands of times, finally did not appear again, and it was no longer a fake China element. Nezha was "remolded" as a "nobody" who was born with original sin but dared to resist his fate. In addition, although the film is set in ancient times, the discussion on family education is more in line with modern thinking.

  In fact, the high box office of the three films is also inseparable from the "added value" brought by the industry environment. First of all, the industrial standards of the three films are outstanding among domestic films in recent years, and promoting the industrialization process is one of the core words of China films in recent years.

  Secondly, the appearance of "Wolf Warriors 2" gave birth to a "Chinese hero" that China film market has long lacked; The Wandering Earth opened the first year of China science fiction movies, and the milestone significance is beyond doubt; Nezha represents a genuine new hope for the country. It can be said that in the top three box office, there is also the audience’s affirmation of the contribution made by several films to China films.

  As a guest in Today’s Film Review, Tan Fei thought that it was not accurate to call Jason Wu, jiaozi and Guo Fan "amateurs", because these people all had rich social experience and social cognition, so their grasp of audience psychology might be more accurate. Indeed, art comes from life, and jiaozi, who wrote Nezha, chewed for more than three years after graduation, switched to animation, and after a little fame, he was dormant for ten years. Finally, he realized his ideal with Nezha, and the story of Nezha breaking secular prejudice and turning his destiny was also integrated into jiaozi’s own bumpy experience.

  In fact, although the three directors are non-professional, they are not without professional accumulation. Jason Wu has been in the film and television industry for more than 20 years; Frant Gwo participated in the study abroad program initiated by China Film Bureau in 2015 and studied in Hollywood. Jiaozi began to learn animation after coming into contact with MAYA in 2002. Before Nezha, he created an animated comedy short film "Fight, Fight a Big Watermelon".

  Market-oriented operation driven by product thinking

  Looking back at the top three films at the box office, it seems that the creative process is not particularly smooth.

  When filming "Wolf Warriors 2", as an investor, Jason Wu invested 80 million yuan on real estate mortgage. As a director and starring role, Jason Wu insisted on not using body double. During the filming, he was bruised by gravel, accidentally fell on a high-altitude pipeline, injured his arm by a steel plate, and his wrist was caught in the chain … … It’s no exaggeration that Wolf Warriors 2 is called "the film that Jason Wu bought with his life".

  A string of figures behind The Wandering Earth’s becoming a milestone in domestic science fiction films shocked many people: 8,000 shots, 10,000 props, and 3,000 design drawings … … But even so, because of the weak foundation of science fiction films in China, The Wandering Earth filmed half of the investors withdrawing their funds, which directly led to the collapse of the branch line of space articles in the past 30 minutes. do or die and Jason Wu invested 60 million yuan to make guest films at zero pay, which didn’t make the films difficult to produce. Later, director Frant Gwo always said, "Without Jason Wu, there would be no small broken ball."

  Let’s talk about "Nezha". Director jiaozi took the team to grind the script for six months, and then changed it to 66 editions. The team designed more than 100 editions of Nezha with reference to the mythological images throughout the ages. Like science fiction films, China’s animation industry system lags far behind Hollywood. With the help of more than 60 animation production teams, such as Striped House and October Animation, and the death of director jiaozi, Nezha finally came out.

  Selling money for a good film is not a myth, but more efforts are still behind the myth. As a guest of Today’s Film Review, Tan Fei said that the cross-border directors are more concerned about winning prizes in the era of mass shooting, but in the era of post-mass shooting, the original intention of these directors is more dreams and love. In the end, the audience also affirmed the sincerity of these creators and their respect for the content at the box office.

  These bitter "entrepreneurial stories" later became the highlight of film marketing. When Wolf Warriors 2 was released, in addition to Weibo marketing, emotional marketing, topic marketing, group marketing and other multi-pronged approaches, Jason Wu’s "Shadow Idiot Design" for a good film was widely spread; When The Wandering Earth was released, in addition to the propaganda points of "hardcore science fiction" and "feelings for home and country" in the positions where young people such as Weibo and Tik Tok gathered, the ingenuity behind the film was constantly amplified, which incited the audience emotionally.

  When "Nezha" was released, the arduous production process was also an important propaganda point, but the film marketing was more outstanding in the "CP marketing theory". The official "anti-routine" combined Ao Bing and Nezha, the traditional foes, into "Lotus Root Cake CP", which attracted a lot of second-generation fans and CP powder. Many fans produced their own UGC content, which can be described as an important driving force for "Lotus Root Cake" to become the hottest CP this summer.

  It is not difficult to find that these films are more product-oriented in both content creation and marketing methods. The creative team looks at the content and marketing with the relationship between production and sales, so as to find a communication point that is more in line with the interests of contemporary audiences, so as to incite more box office space.

  The surprise of China film market is far from enough.

  It is true that the achievements of the top three films are inseparable from the ingenuity and pattern of the three directors, but for the current film market in China, we also need more films with higher artistic value after the genre commercial films such as Wolf Warriors 2, The Wandering Earth and Nezha gradually mature.

  Whether it’s Wolf Warriors 2, The Wandering Earth or Nezha, when the box office keeps rising, they all face the question of "whether the film has been praised". In fact, these three films are not "over-praised" in terms of promoting the industrial level, cultivating the audience’s aesthetics, and breaking through China’s film types. However, if we compare the film content vertically from the film history, the three films are indeed slightly artistic.

  Although the film market is diverse and inclusive, and the films have their own positioning, it is undeniable that these three films are all popular at home and have relatively limited overseas influence. Nezha’s overseas box office is about 1/250 of the mainland box office; Wolf Warriors 2’s North American box office is 2.721 million US dollars, and the local box office accounts for 99% of the global box office; The Wandering Earth’s North American box office is only one million dollars.

  Nowadays, China’s film market has entered a benign stage of development, and reshaping its international influence has become one of the important propositions of the times. However, it is really difficult for domestic films to gain global popularity only by commercial films.

  Not long ago, Nezha was selected as the best international film for this year’s Oscar. The story was born out of China’s traditional culture. From the perspectives of family, friendship, growth, dreams and responsibilities, Nezha has more universal value than previous films that bid for the Olympic Games. However, many netizens believe that although Nezha is a masterpiece, it is still far from the masterpiece, and it is very likely that it will capsize if it is sent to the best international film that hits the Oscar.

  Over the past 20 years, China’s films have gained worldwide popularity, and most of them have won world acclaim, such as Hero, Raise the Red Lantern, Farewell My Concubine and other literary films with profound China culture. This year’s Golden Bear Award nomination for Auld Lang Syne is also very artistic.

  For domestic audiences, many people think that the value of most high-grossing films in recent years can’t be compared with the works of Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige in 1980s and 1990s. Some netizens bluntly said: "These movies with high box office feel good and good when watching them, but they won’t want to see them again later. The film of the great director is that one day you suddenly think of it and watch it again with relish. "

  In recent years, although the fifth and sixth generation directors are still higher in artistic achievements than many directors of the new generation and Mesozoic era, Waterloo, a veteran director of many films at the box office, has also made many film critics say: "They still understand movies, but they don’t understand the market."

  The so-called ignorance of the market, in fact, objectively speaking, is that some directors are slightly derailed from the younger generation in expression, and the stories without young directors are more grounded. In addition, in marketing, veteran directors are relatively conservative, and many of them pay insufficient attention to marketing links, which is not conducive to the spread of film influence in the era of Internet announcement.

  In Today’s Film Review, Tan Fei mentioned the "post-mass shooting era". The four basic abilities that directors need are aesthetic ability, artistic ability, execution ability and media ability, among which both execution ability and media ability are biased towards communication level.

  A generation of directors adapt to a generation of audiences, and a new generation of directors firmly grasp the market. Can they continue to surprise the market in terms of aesthetic ability and artistic ability?

The scene of "Anti-Corruption Storm 4" airborne in Foshan prison was praised as "so real"

1905 movie network news The crime action blockbuster is produced by Huang Baiming, directed by Lin Delu, co-starred by Louis Koo, Kevin Cheng, raymond lam, Lin Jiadong, Chrissie Chau and others, especially in Chilam, and will be released nationwide on April 4th. On March 28th, the anti-corruption roadshow team appeared in Foshan and went to the storm center with the audience.

A group of anti-corruption members from raymond lam, Tan Yaowen, Anika and Liu Mengna parachuted into the scene, and when they came to Guangdong, the founders also changed into Cantonese. The cordial local words made the atmosphere of the scene even higher, and it was even more interactive after the screening. The audience collectively shouted in Cantonese: I like it!


Foshan roadshow scene Cantonese cordial interaction raymond lam ridiculed Tan Yaowen as a "villain" predecessor

The film "Anti-Corruption Storm 4" started with a real-name report, which reported that criminals in prison were privately given and accepted by supervisors, and that police and robbers colluded, which finally led to a "10 billion corruption case" in which mainland white gloves came to Hong Kong to launder money. As the fourth part of the IP "the best in the series", this time, an unprecedented super-strong lineup was assembled. Louis Koo, Kevin Cheng, Chilam and Lin Jiadong returned to their places, and raymond lam joined in strongly. This is also the greatest sincere gift given to the audience by anti-corruption this time besides the wonderful plot.

Yesterday, several masters from raymond lam, Tan Yaowen, Anika and Liu Mengna appeared in Foshan, the "hometown of martial arts", and interacted with the local audience in Cantonese. Some viewers said, "I came to see it with my parents and they all liked it." Most of the people on the scene are veteran fans of TVB. They are particularly curious about raymond lam’s first villain performance and even "scared".FengSaid: "It’s the first time I play the villain, I hope you hate me." He also humorously mentioned that there were several experienced predecessors who played "bad guys" in the play, and pointed to Tan Yaowen beside him, which drew cheers from the audience.

Tan Yaowen’s supervision uniform was well received by the audience, and raymond lam was selected as the "most handsome boy" by the same group.

The prison scene is a surprise in the film. After the screening, the audience shouted: The prison scene is so real!

Some fans praised the supervision uniform in Tan Yaowen’s play, saying, "What a style!" Tan Yaowen also responded: Although that suit is very hot, I feel very stylish myself. Anika, a familiar face of the anti-corruption series, asked the audience at the scene: "There are so many male gods in the play, are you envious of me?" She also praised raymond lam, who has worked with her many times, as a handsome boy. When Tan Yaowen was asked, she also said that "Cao Yuanyuan is the most handsome boy."

As a classic criminal action IP, the action drama in anti-corruption has always been shocking. This time, the fourth drama was upgraded, and the sea, land and air were fully launched. The audience at the scene were deeply impressed by the last helicopter play. Liu Mengna, who has a wonderful performance in the play, said: "It’s a great honor to have the opportunity to learn from the goddess of god for the first time!"
