When Li Xuedao told Ning Yuan before, Ning Yuan was worried that time would not be involved.

After all, I promised Professor Qin Li that if I didn't have her permission in my freshman year, I wouldn't be allowed to take on the show, although a big production like Water Margin would definitely be fine, but I always felt a little pampered and arrogant.

and the theater, he also promised Meng Hui.

In short, it's all in the freshman year.

Fortunately, Li Xuedao said that the scale of this drama is large, and the script argument has not yet ended, and the actors have not finished picking, not to mention those more complex scenes, which also need time to build.

Think about the Taihu Lake Water Margin City in later generations, and you know how long it will take to build such a large-scale place.

And in order to film a drama and create a city, in addition to the wealthy CCTV filming "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", only Chen Kaige has this kind of courage and ability.

In order to film "Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin", he and his team spent four years to build a palace of King Qin in Hengdian for 230 million.

Although Hengdian started because of Xie Jin's filming of "Opium War", it is definitely because of the Qin Palace, and in the future, the Qin Palace will also be the most profitable place in Hengdian.

Oh yes, King Qin is played by Li Xuedao, as for Jing Ke, it is Zhang Fengyi, and the heroine is Meng Yan.

The movie was released as early as the summer vacation, when Ning Yuan was still filming Shaobao in Florida.

Although this drama costs a lot of money, the box office in the country is only a pitiful million, and the global box office is only 70 million, which is a huge loss.

In his previous life, Ning Yuan was particularly strange, why did this brother rarely make money from filming, but there were still people who kept throwing money into him.

Unlike other directors, once they lose money, if they want to invest again, there is no way.

It wasn't until later that Ning Yuan understood that this brother's artistic attainments were not comparable to those directors, and those people made a film that made people see their shit-like abilities, but Brother Chen Kai was not.

Many times, the factors that determine the box office are very strange, for example, after more than ten years, people suddenly began to say again that "Jing Ke Assassinated the King of Qin" was seriously underestimated.

It's like "Journey to the West".

These talented directors often have advanced vision and standards, but unfortunately the time is not ripe, and people at that time can't appreciate it, so they naturally fall into the sand.

Therefore, even if Brother Chen Kai is defeated repeatedly, he will not disappoint, who knows if his next drama will be a big hit?

Besides, the film and television city built can be used as a scenic spot and rented out to the crew, and it will make a steady profit.

Although this is theoretically the case, in the next one or two decades, even if various film and television companies are very rich, the act of building a city for a drama is still rare like a crested ibis.

Only Brother Chen Kai.

This brother has worked tirelessly to build houses and ancient cities, such as "Fengyue", "Wuji", "Zhao's Orphan", and "The Legend of the Demon Cat".

His films are met with mixed reviews, but because of his obsessive-compulsive perfectionism, he spends no more money than the truck driver—

When filming "Fengyue", the Chedun Film and Television Base he cooperated with Donghai City will become one of the top ten film and television bases in the country in the future.

When filming "Zhao's Orphan", he spent 160 million to build a film and television city in Xiangshan.

In order to film "The Legend of the Demon Cat", Chen Kaige spent another six years, spent 1.2 billion, and copied a Chang'an City in Xiangyang according to the original proportion, and planted 20,000 trees.

A lot of times, you can't figure out whether he's making a movie for the sake of building an attraction, or building an attraction for the sake of making a movie.

But it is undeniable that what he has done has saved many crews and money in the future, and even Zhang Yimou's "Hero", the scenes in the palace were also filmed in Hengdian Qin Palace.

And this kind of real scene, in terms of visual effects to the audience, is far from being comparable to the green screen.

There is also tourism, which has a profound impact on tourists and the local economy.

As Chen Kaige himself said: "One is that I feel that shooting in the studio is more fake, and on the other hand, it can promote local economic development, improve people's livelihood, and benefit the entire Chinese film industry." ”

This remark made Ning Yuan at that time awe-struck after hearing it.

If those film companies, directors and actors had this kind of extreme pursuit, there might not be so much perfunctory.

But it's a pity that until Ning Yuan comes back, let alone construction of this scale, even filming actors can not be reached, just need to change their faces!

I bought a watch last year!

Even if you make a bad movie, you have to be serious, I didn't see anyone Liu Tianwang and Gu Daxia, I didn't see anyone use a stand-in when I made a bad movie, and I still arrived on time to shoot seriously, as for bad movies, it is also the screenwriter and director, or the production company's pot, and the responsibility is not on them.

Although Ning Yuan is unhappy, he can't change others, so he can only do it with his own heart, worthy of conscience and love.

And it is the speed of preparation for the Water Margin, so, according to Li Xuedao, by the time Ningyuan can start filming during the summer vacation next year, it will already be the fastest speed.

Maybe it won't even turn on when school starts.

After Ning Yuan told Qin Li and Meng Hui about this matter, they said that they had no problem, but they were very supportive, after all, it was this kind of large-scale production and excellence-making team.

Although Ning Yuan didn't break his promise, their reaction still moved Ning Yuan.

But the price of being moved was that Ning Yuan went to Meng Hui's house to cook two more dinners, and accompanied the couple to watch Shaobao for two nights.

Ning Yuan wondered: "Sister Mei is afraid that I still believe it, and you are a big man, and you are also afraid?"

Meng Hui Zhenzhen said: "What's wrong with the old man, isn't it also a mortal in the flesh, even a little less than a woman, why can't you be afraid?"

"Just your guts......" Ning Yuan shook his head speechlessly.

Or Xiaomei relieved her husband: "This guy has too much imagination, and after watching it, there are too many pictures in his mind, and he can't sleep at night after watching it." ”

"You're not afraid of me here?" Ning Yuan couldn't cry or laugh.

"When I see you, I feel like I'm in a play, and I won't go too deep. Meng Hui laughed.

"Isn't that Zhuo Jie more suitable, he's been idle lately, why don't I call him?"

"Don't, don't, I feel more able to substitute when I see him, after all, most of those cases were solved by him. ”

Ning Yuan: "......"

Why don't you lose face?

Of course, after reading it on the second night, when Ning Yuan went out, Meng Hui hesitated and said: "You still don't accompany me, I was wrong, I shouldn't have let you come in the first place, if you didn't come......"

"Speak human words!"

"Why do I feel more scared when you're here? I even feel like there's one more person in the house when I sleep at night. ”

"Get out!"

......

When Ning Yuan arrived at CCTV, Li Xuedao was already waiting there, and Ning Yuan hurriedly greeted him:

"You're so busy, and you even made a special trip, I really can't help it. ”

Li Xuedao smiled: "If I don't come, I don't feel at ease, although these people are talented, they have been in CCTV for a long time, and they will inevitably have some habits of being above the top." ”

Ning Yuan was silent, his heart full of emotion.
