Chapter 274: Returning Home (4/5)

All domestic fantasy films must always be put on a show: You pay attention! Lao Tzu is now going to tell you a super hanging, super huge, super complex, super heart-wrenching, super epic legendary story!

The question is, who cares how bizarre and complicated the setting is for you to come up and pile up?

"Asura"... Not only "Asura", which work is most of the domestic fantasy?

The Lord of the Rings!

Be big, show off, be hi!

The problem is that "The Lord of the Rings" itself has been a half-century reading in the Western world, and "Game of Thrones" has to do the foreshadowing for a few seasons first, and then lead to the setting.

Why do you have to accept Asura?

Seven hundred million spent...

True or not, it's a tragedy!

Actually, you must understand the audience when making a commercial film, if the screenwriter of a commercial genre film doesn't watch popular, doesn't play games, doesn't watch anime...

It will really be discarded by the times!

If you don't even understand the preferences and aesthetics of the current mainstream audience, you don't think that this kind of person can write a popular commercial work!

The setting of "Asura" is quite complicated, what an Asura King, a three-headed Asura King, strategy, insight, and desire.

He also talked about Plato, saying that Plato was the first to divide the human soul into three parts: reason, passion, and desire, and pointed out that one of them always dominates and makes man's pursuits different.

The best order of the soul is one in which reason is dominant, assisted by passion, and desire restrains itself and obeys reason...

What the Six Realms...

Really, Lu Xiaoran specializes in movies, but he couldn't get the point of the whole story...

……

"The theme of "Walking with God", I originally wanted to do it myself... If you want to do Chinese fantasy, this theme is very suitable, you can use it!"

Lu Xiaoran really sympathizes with Yang Zhenjian...

Regardless of whether "Asura" cost 750 million or not, it must have thrown money!

Listen to the meaning of the auxiliary, the special effects are good, and a lot of effort has been put in, but unfortunately the story is sparse and no one reads it...

"Walking with God" is different, a good story in the true sense of the word!

"What are you talking about?"

"The premise is very simple: there is a law in the underworld, and all the deceased must go through seven trials within 49 days of death - in the prison of murder, the prison of laziness, the prison of deception, the prison of injustice, the prison of betrayal, the prison of violence, and the prison of family. ”

Looking at Yang Zhenjian, Lu Xiaoran continued: "The first story is called "Crime and Punishment",

Firefighter Jin Zihong died saving people in the fire, and after his death, he became acquainted with the messengers of hell, Jiang Lin, Xie Grievance Mai, and Dechun. They will serve as a "team of lawyers" in seven trials to defend the "nobleman" (the righteous deceased) Kaneko Hiroshi!"

"The first story is that with the help of the yin cha Li Dechun, he passed through the seven hells, was exonerated in seven trials, and finally succeeded in reincarnation. ”

Yang Zhenjian hesitated for a moment: "Hell, yin, can't you pass the trial?"

“… You want to make a good fantasy story and think about safety, it's so hard!"

"The setting of "Asura" is very good..."

"Then come on!"

“… We are ready to hire a professional special effects team in Hollywood and spend a lot of money to build..."

"May I ask, why do you have to do Asura?"

“… I want to subvert Chinese films, not only Chinese films, but also Hollywood!"

Yang continued: "Chinese films are currently facing a comprehensive upgrade process, so one of the big challenges is whether we Chinese filmmakers can integrate materials from all over the world for our films. For example, when Americans make mummies, which are Egyptian and North African, the audience doesn't feel that it's out of place or out of harmony, because the audience has rationally accepted this approach of Hollywood filmmakers!"

"Becoming the mainstream of world cinema is the only way for Chinese films. In the future, the more global it is, the more likely it is to be Chinese. If an artist does not have the ability to bridge different cultures together and make them seamless, then the artist's cultivation is still shallow. ”

"I want to be Asura, a world-class presentation, and an international manufacturing, so that I can turn the huge cultural resources accumulated in the East into a high-level film that can be understood, disseminated, and loved by people all over the world!"

Wow...

Teacher Lu's blood swelled when he listened, and he couldn't wait to bow down...

Well, Mr. Lu actually has no fluctuations in his heart, and even wants to laugh a little...

You have high aspirations, but Mr. Lu is far behind...

Anyway, no matter how he blew it, Lu Xiaoran didn't answer a word until he shut up and mentioned the matter of serving as a producer.

“… My work plan is full, I don't have the time or energy to do anything else, Mr. Yang, you better find someone else!"

Yang Zhenjian sighed...

"By the way, "Walking with God", you are really not interested?"

“… I'm still doing my "Asura"!"

"Then I bought it myself..."

……

There are really not many producers who understand content now, too few and too little.

When most producers talk to you, they talk about the framework, the world view, the setting, the subject matter...

Rarely talk about specific stories!

If it is not for children, then whether it is animation or real life, it cannot have only one voice, and the positive and negative characters with facial makeup must have a variety of different values, a variety of different conflicts of interest and even a dark side.

Then again, at present, domestic film and television works are too risky for investors to show this.

Yang Zhenjian is gone...

Lao Yang was not the first to come to him to help stand on the platform.

China Film also approached Lu Xiaoran to do "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" together...

Eight books of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", the copyright of the first four books was bought out by China Film, and the last four oranges were won...

The director they pushed was called Lu Chuan, and Lu Xiaoran only chatted with him for a few words, so he didn't bother to talk to him...

Director Lu Chuan's original words: I want to rewrite the script! I happened to see a film about people from another planet invading the earth and lurking among human beings.

If you want to make science fiction films and disaster movies in China, you must combine them with contemporary China very closely, so that the audience will have a sense of substitution.

"Then why do you still use the IP of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"?"

Actually, I don't think this movie has anything to do with him, when an IP enters the film world, it is a creation of a filmmaker, and I don't think any book can guarantee that this movie will sell well!

Hanging explosion!

You're so awesome, you can play by yourself...

The adaptation rights of "Notes on Tomb Robbery" were filmed by Hua Yi...

Anyway, Yang Zhenjian's arrival reminded him, and he immediately called Chen Zhixi and asked her to buy the adaptation rights of "Walking with God" - even if it can't be made into a live-action movie, it can be made into an anime movie!

……

On September 22, Lu Xiaoran returned to China...

The movie market in September is very bleak, in addition to "Hunting" barely breaking 200 million, there is also a Zhang Ziyi chick series, the second part of the series "Very Lucky", the box office barely broke 100 million...

It's gone...

The National Day file is coming, everyone is gearing up, bayonets fighting!

The first echelon is definitely "Shendu Dragon King" and "Moon";

The second echelon is Bona's "Escape" and Shangying's "Magic"...

Just these four...

Guang Xian gave up the National Day file this year, and "The Four Famous Catches 2" turned to 3D, preparing to release the New Year file;

Lay's Pictures: "I want to be nice with you", invited Feng Teddy + Wang Luodan;

Wanda can't look down on the National Day file, and people have pulled up the big brother Cheng, the main New Year file "Police Story 2013" - Da Tian Tian Bad Movie Series...

It is said that Lu Xiaoran promised to make Tian Tian popular, and she did what she said, and a "Smile is Alluring" directly promoted her to the most popular actress.

But that's what happened after that...

Lu Xiaoran doesn't really want to have anything to do with the stars - Ya is a white glove company, specializing in helping people or something!

This is not the point, the point is that Zhang Jin told Lu Xiaoran that Hua Yi returned points when he released "Shendu Dragon King"...

Wonderful Book House
