Great minds think alike; facing the camera and talking about 'money,' both Suming and Long Wu revealed knowing smiles.
The collaboration between Suming and Long Wu on Animal City kept their relationship in a constantly changing state.
Initially, Long Wu's point of departure was to repay a favor and help a younger brother out, not thinking about making money from Suming;
As for Suming, he wanted to make movies to earn money, but to be honest, he didn't have absolute confidence at the start. His lowest expectation was that the film wouldn't lose money, and a box office of thirty or forty million yuan would be quite good.
That would smoothly grant him entry into the film industry; as long as he could prove there was a market for animal-based films, it would be entirely possible to continue making them.
