Chapter 516

When the performance reached a deeply moving moment.

Their eyes would redden, filled with tears.

Su Chen once again truly felt the terrifying power of money!

These extras were all Su Chen's employees making cameo appearances.

They were not professionals.

Yet facing Su Chen's power of money, each one was possessed by an Oscar-winning actor.

They acted so convincingly.

With this, Su Chen felt puzzled.

These employees, for a bonus of tens of thousands,

could work so hard, unleashing their full potential, possessed by an Oscar-winning actor.

Yet those top-tier young idols of the entertainment industry, earning hundreds of millions annually,

show no progress in acting skills, displaying various stone-faced expressions!

From where did these behind-the-scenes capitalists select such talent?

The key is that these stone-faced young idols aren't even that good-looking.

Xiao Zhan, Wang Wang Yabo, the Three Little Ones—truly, they all look quite average.

After the performance, it was the guests' turn to perform.

The camera focused on Lao Lao Mouzi.

He spoke first.

As stated before, a top director faces far greater difficulty than a top actor.

Because cinema is the director's art.

To truly become a master-level director,

top-tier acting skills are merely the most basic requirement.

That is to say, directors of Lao Lao Mouzi's caliber possess superb acting skills.

So Lao Lao Mouzi, at this moment, was once again possessed by a dramatic actor.

He began his "Zhang Yimou Shock."

However, compared to his many previous shocks,

this shock was absolutely from the heart.

"Ne Zha: The Demon Child's Birth," whether in character animation design, plot, or production quality,

left him in awe.

Lao Lao Mouzi: "It was too wonderful, too spectacular! I believe this film currently represents the highest standard of domestic animated films."

"Absolutely worth the price; I hope everyone comes to the cinema to watch it."

"If it's not good, you can come find me and settle the score."

Chen Jinfei hung his donkey face, which was even more stone-faced than his son's.

He smiled stiffly: "A rare masterpiece. I am truly curious, how does little Su possess such immense power?"

"His acting standard is very high, and his directing ability surpasses mine."

"He is also proficient in art, animation design, and post-production, truly making me, the so-called great director, feel ashamed."

"This work is suitable for all ages, absolutely worth the price!"

Lin Chaoxian: "I have only one sentence: I loved watching it, my blood boiled while watching, and I want to watch it a second time!"

Compared to these three greasy men,

the three goddesses beside Su Chen could obviously resonate more.

Because they are still young.

And they also enjoy watching animation.

They can better represent the true thoughts of young people.

Zhao Jinmai said excitedly: "From the perspective of an audience member, I love this animated film too much."

"Little Ne Zha is really cute; with such a small body yet infinite energy, it's simply impossible to get enough of it."

Chen Yuqi: "If a person could only watch one animated film in their entire life, I would recommend this one without hesitation."

Da Da Tiantian, with her large water ball in front, revealed a smile like a wealthy flower.

"It is indeed very good; I think it is the best animated film. Director Su is truly a genius!"

Previously, they had all been invited to offer such social pleasantries of praise.

Only this time did they speak their true thoughts.

"Ne Zha: The Demon Child's Birth" indeed received their highest praise.

Even with the cameras turned off,

Lao Lao Mouzi continued to praise Su Chen endlessly.

"I feel this film could easily achieve a box office of six or seven hundred million."

"Actually, for current films, six or seven hundred million already counts as a high box office."

"For another person's animated film work, I would never dare to imagine such a number; only you are the exception."

Because Su Chen had created several blockbusters in the two-billion-plus range.

Even if animated films suffer at the box office,

given the quality of "Ne Zha: The Demon Child's Birth,"

Lao Lao Mouzi believed achieving six or seven hundred million was no big problem.

Su Chen laughed and said, "If I can only get six or seven hundred million, then I hope it's 690 million."

"I have a friend who predicted this movie would earn 690 million in box office."

Lao Lao Mouzi frowned.

"Is there any special meaning to 690 million?"

Su Chen shook his head with a serious expression.

"No! Maybe this number is just closer to 700 million?"

Zhao Jinmai gave a thumbs-up.

"Brother, if an animated movie earns 700 million in box office, you'll be immortalized."

In everyone's understanding,

animated movies have a natural disadvantage compared to live-action films.

In reality, this is indeed the case.

The animated movie with the highest box office in this world

tops out at only two or three hundred million.

Even if Su Chen reaches 700 million, it is far from the over two billion earned by works like "Tang Renjie Tan An" and "Xia Luote Fan Nao."

It would still be an insurmountable peak for other animated movies.

"Little Su, when will you fulfill your promise regarding the movie script?"

Lao Lao Mouzi started urging him on the spot.

During this period, he had been wanting to shoot a new movie.

To break into the Spring Festival season!

But he still hadn't found a suitable script.

The script Su Chen promised to provide had not been delivered yet.

If delayed any further, they would miss the Spring Festival season.

As the period with the largest traffic throughout the year,

every work wants to break in and make money.

It is understandable for those big directors, big actors, or big-budget films.

Even some random cats and dogs.

Low-budget films, or even small movies that can't afford promotion,

also scramble to squeeze into the Spring Festival season, seeking a miracle.

A big shot of Lao Lao Mouzi's caliber.

In the twilight of his career, he has only one goal.
