Chapter 39 Zhuxian starts filming

New villa. Zhang Fan hired two nannies. Five veterans from the mainland. A driver.

Special forces Yuan Mu, as well as four veteran guards of the Beijing Division. In fact, Deng Zhenguo sent him to protect Zhang Fan.

Zhang Fan did not refuse this kindness.

Future Pictures. This is a film company established and registered by Zhang Fan. Wong Tak-bin, Donnie Yen, Lin Ka-tung, Lei Yuyang, Liu Ximing, Lai Zhishan, Wong Chi-yin, Lee Cheuk-kei, Hu Yingwen, Chan Pui-shan, Ekin Cheng, Wong Chak-fung, Lee Ka-sing, Wu Qiming,

This year's people have become the team of the future film industry. One set of 1,000-foot house in Clear Water Bay. Cash in after five years. The salary is 20,000 a month. Five percent per year. Sign up for 10 years. Commission system.

Zhu Xian. Zhang Fan invited Hu Jinquan to direct. Tsui Hark and Cheng Xiaodong came to be the martial arts commander and the producer himself. The three of them were smashed down by Zhang Fan's big stroke. $300 million invested in a TV series. There is no upper limit.

The male protagonist Ekin Cheng and the female protagonist Lu Xueqi invited Lin Qingxia. Baguio Li Jiaxin. Tian Ling'er Zhang Min. All luxurious array of handsome men and beautiful women. One month of classical image temperament training.

The Xianxia shooting concept of later generations, new immortal methods and innovative martial arts settings, in the month-long scene construction. Zhang Fan infiltrated and taught the three. There has been tremendous progress in learning from each other and contacting each other.

Tsui Hark is a genius for Xianxia movies. He has unique insights and strange thinking. The ideas put forward by Touch Bypass are very similar to the concept of shooting in 2020.

Zhang Fan couldn't help but sigh that it was worth digging up this movie genius. In later generations, Tsui Hark's achievements were significantly lower. Judging from the talent shown by the current contact, Zhang Fan judged that it was not much lower than Cameron.

This guy just needs to have enough room to study. The potential is immeasurable. Ingenuity, creativity. Zhang Fan suddenly thought that in 2001, he filmed the biography of Shushan. Blows encountered. HK$100 million. Let's talk about returns.

On the special effects of that movie. Thousands of miles in the sky, sword qi vertical and horizontal. There are mountains outside the mountains, and there are heavens outside the sky. In the vast universe, the number of stars in the Ganges River changes amazingly! Shu Mountain Emei, the mountains are undulating, and the sea of clouds is flying and rushing! It makes people imagine that the aura between heaven and earth gathers between Sichuan and Yue. Edgeworth flies, chasing the wind and the moon!

So far, Zhang Fan's mind has been stirred.

In Zhang Fan's cognition. Tsui Hark is the ancestor who created the concept of Xianxia. If there are sufficient funds. Zhang Fan is sure that Tsui Hark can shoot the epic world effect of Avatar. Hu Jinquan grasps the humanistic plot of Zhuxian. Tsui Hark grasps the creative martial arts, and Cheng Xiaodong grasps the details of the fighting method. This is the most perfect match in Zhang Fan's opinion.

A few days later. Through some hard preparation. Zhang Fan's debut film finally started filming at Shaw Brothers Studios.

A press conference was held on the same day.

Then a five-minute promotional video was played directly on the big screen: "The Qingyunzhi of the Immortals, the Heaven and the Earth Are Unkind, and all things are used as dogs." Demon beasts are rampant, Lingzun roars, countless classical handsome men and beautiful women fly with swords, and the ancient sword of Zhuxian is born!" The effect of the black antelope's brain rendering is very good. It's a pity that there is no responsive playback device. This black-tech screen was taken down from the advertising screen of Elysium. The sound is shocking. It can only be spread in a small area. If only every billboard in Hong Kong could play such a shocking effect. Zhang Fan believes that it will immediately attract a large number of Zhuxian fans.

was supposed to be an entertainment gossip reporter who watched hilarious jokes. Came like a smell of fishy paparazzi, and soon surrounded the entire set.

One by one, they held up the microphone and asked loudly: "Is that just a unicorn? Is this the three-D rendering of the United States? Is Lin Qingxia the heroine of the Tianya Sword? I heard that you invested in a TV series for her." Is it for the hype of the new film or is it really something? Are you a movie or a TV series? I heard that Zhu Xian's novel will also be sold next week, is it true?".

Faced with a burst of questions from the media, as the screenwriter of this TV series, Zhang Fan replied one by one on stage in a majestic manner, and his tone was extremely high-profile.

"3D rendering technology is developed by our future film industry. Not American technology. The blindless reporter. Be mindful of your words. "To deal with such entertainment reporters, these are pediatrics, and I haven't seen anything in my previous life! Internet violence is 10,000 times more brutal than entertainment reporters.

"Xianxia, what kind of type is this, is it the same as the owner of Huanzhu Mansion?" a reporter suddenly asked Zhang Fan.

Xianxia? As soon as you hear this name, you will have a fresh fairy breath in your face. Many journalists have wanted to ask this question for a long time. But I don't know how to ask.

Many people can't tell what type of TV series Xianxia belongs to, but after thinking about it carefully, they still have their own guesses, one is immortal, the other is chivalry, is it a combination of fairy and monster novels and martial arts novels? Mr. Jin Yong is a combination of martial arts and chivalry. Could this rich young man be able to create a new theme?

Zhang Fan smiled and said: "Xianxia, in fact, is the immortal plus martial arts, putting the chivalrous spirit in martial arts in the world with immortals as the background, and also putting the love of mortals in the battle of immortals. Immortals also have affection. Our Zhu Xian is expressed by immortals, and it is more about the feelings of the world. Chivalrous. Love, family affection, sectarian feelings. ”

The reporters were amazed, and sure enough, they were even more surprised in their hearts, the imagination of a rich man was really fantastical, and even this unprecedented type could be imagined. A collection of romance, martial arts, and immortals.

The reporter pondered for a while and asked, "Isn't that also like martial arts novels, love and kindness, vendetta in the rivers and lakes, and the like?"

The same can be said. ”

"I'll keep it simple. Immortals are omnipotent beings in our cultural legends, flying into the sky, turning stones into gold, and even being able to open up the world. In many legends in our culture, there are stories of mortals becoming immortals. The process of cultivating mortals to immortals is long. Cultivating for hundreds, thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, immortals fight the law. Sword fighting. Fighting supernatural powers. Fighting for one's life against the sky is just like the fighting spirit of Hong Kong people. From a lonely man to a top rich.

For this explanation, many reporters were amazed.

After answering the reporters' questions one by one, the main participants of the new drama stood on the stage one by one and asked the reporters to take pictures with flashlights.

Among them, the one who attracted the most attention from reporters was Lin Qingxia, who was rumored outside, as well as Zhang Min. poaching people from Yongsheng, Zhang Fan was the first. Hu Jinquan. Tsui Hark and Cheng Xiaodong also have a lot of shots, and their questions are one after another, each more scathing than the other.

The directors were indifferent, and they also answered some sharp questions tactfully, without leakage, which made Zhang Fan, who had always been worried, sigh and convince: he is worthy of being a director, and his ability to set sentences is breathtaking. I will definitely not be able to cope with this wave of offensive.

After the press conference, according to the rules of Hong Kong filming, the roast suckling pig was put on the table, everyone bowed and worshiped God together, and then the crew on the set was very polite and responsible for inviting the media reporters out of the field to watch, and Zhang Fan began to send red envelopes to the reporters. One thousand one.

The production method of the Hong Kong TV series in 89. Li, the two wireless dominates, and it can almost be said that they have a monopoly on the entire Hong Kong TV media. The two big TV stations invest in their own dramas, and then compete with each other in broadcasting on their own stations. Filming and broadcasting! Later American dramas are similar. Shoot a season out. Look at the ratings. Then invest in advertising. If the reaction is not good, then the tail is broken.

A Game of Thrones is Zhang Fan's favorite TV series.

Martin should not have started writing yet, and the later TV series is only the first to follow the original book. Later, a large adaptation was enabled. made a low-magic epic drama. Zhang Fan only needs to distinguish the structure of the first part again to avoid a crash. There's no way around it. Shooting the Three Kingdoms, in the case of the mainland, the bottoms and pants will be lost. At this stage, Europe and the United States can make huge returns.

The way Hong Kong TV dramas are made. Doing this can increase the ratings, you can only watch it with the TV station, you can't see it in other ways, it's not like a drama that is broadcast after filming, if the tape is released, you can spend money to buy or rent it. In addition, if the ratings are good, the drama that was originally planned to shoot 20 episodes can be appropriately extended by a few episodes, and in the case of enriching the plot content, the TV station can also make money, and then the most popular things (such as popular words, songs, etc.) can be added to the play, so that the audience has no sense of distance from the characters in the play. There is also the ability to listen to the audience's reactions, conform to public opinion, and appropriately modify the plot to make it more popular with the audience.

There are very few TV series that have been produced in one go. Big investment, there are worries.
