Chapter 1201

"The reason why director Yang Hao is bold is because this kind of rhythm, once it starts, you can't stop, as soon as you stop, it will make the audience start to play and start thinking about other things, and it is not easy to maintain this rhythm, but Yang Hao did it in "Speed of Life and Death".

Dare others don't dare, this is a major breakthrough, because of this, therefore, even if the plot of the movie is a little flawed, it is not flawed! "Speed of Life and Death" is definitely a movie worth watching, it can make you forget everything and spend 2 hours in a tense and exciting atmosphere, and that's enough, isn't it?"

And Fan Wencheng didn't expect that Yang Hao would actually change his previous style this time, and directly staged a movie rhythm with the speed of life and death.

There are no superfluous shots in the whole process, not even any branch lines, and it is thrilling and exciting all the way to the end, this kind of movie is actually very risky.

Because of this rhythm, once it's on, you can't break it, and once it's broken, then it ruins the whole movie.

Of course, Yang Hao succeeded.

But in this case, it is obviously not reproducible, a movie like "Speed of Life and Death" may be good at the box office, but Fan Wencheng is not so worried.

Because movies like "Speed of Life and Death" can break out in small bursts, but it is difficult to break out in a big way.

Fan Wencheng also began to think about whether he wanted to make something different in his next movie.

Although he is already standing in the small group of people, he also wants to be able to become a minority one day.

To put it bluntly in the film industry, the same is also the law of the jungle, and they are all fighting!

The actors are competing for the resources of the film, the resources of advertising, and the resources of showing their faces, and the directors are also fighting, but the directors are competing for the market!

Yes, there is a limit to the number of films that can be accommodated in a schedule, and every director must fight for it, and the same is true for the same film company.

You don't fight, maybe you have good strength, but it's hard to get to the highest circle.

So Fan Wencheng also felt the pressure, and in the past, they were only competing with these people in China, so in the future, they will face stronger opponents, and the other party also has a geographical advantage.

Why did Fan Wencheng's "Dangerous Couple" make him famous?

Because "Dangerous Couple" has won a lot of box office abroad, it is not that it admires foreign countries, but everyone is happy that Huaguo has another director who can play!

This is a kind of encouragement, calling for wind and rain in the country, you can only be in the country forever, if you can fight your way out, in this era of peace, why are there Olympic Games? Why do you have to fight for gold?

Because it's a kind of war, why is your flag higher than anyone else? Just because you won the game, and in peacetime, it's a kind of war.

Why do many domestic enterprises pay attention to their products and have a good reputation if they can sell their products abroad? Because this is also a kind of war, a war of resources.

In the same way, the same is true for movies, why are Hollywood movies stirring up trouble in the Chinese market, why can't our films go to their markets to plunder resources?

"Life and Death" is very popular with those overseas studios in Hollywood, and this movie is more in line with their appetite than "The Hangover".

Or, in their opinion, a fast-paced movie like "Life and Death", with this unique style, has a higher probability of success.

The Spring Festival is getting closer and closer, and two of the three films by the three major directors have held their premieres.

"The Hangover" and "The Speed of Life and Death" have both received quite good word-of-mouth, and some people may not like it, but there is no movie that can be enjoyed by everyone.

But the performance of the premieres of "The Hangover" and "Speed of Life and Death" also made many people sigh that they are worthy of being great directors, and the audience is naturally happy, the box office or something, that's not what they should care about, what they care about is that next, there are good movies to watch during the Spring Festival.

"The Hangover" and "Life and Death" have both negotiated overseas releases.

It is very likely that "The Hangover" will be released overseas about two weeks later than in China, no way, although the overseas release has been negotiated, but, after all, it still needs to be promoted.

Moreover, a film with a purely Chinese lineup like "The Hangover" cannot be released directly on a large scale overseas, but will be screened on a small scale, and then see the effect to expand the scale of screening.

However, "Speed of Life and Death" is very promising to go directly to the mode of large-scale release, because this movie is really special, fast-paced movies, maybe domestic audiences will be unaccustomed to it, but overseas audiences, especially North American audiences, like this type of movie very much.

"The Hangover" and "Speed of Life and Death" both ended their first battles, and it can be said that they have announced their first victories.

The overseas distributor of "The Hangover" was the Dick Group, and "Life and Death" was eventually won by the Mina Group.

Therefore, the pressure was all on Fan Wencheng.

Although the three blockbusters in this year's Spring Festival file are all invested by Ling Xiaoge and are Lin Xiao's scripts, among the three movies, "The Hangover" is a comedy, and most of the cost is spent on actors and directors, so the cost is the lowest.

The cost of about 100 million is actually quite high among domestic comedies.

Back to the basics, then you don't need to think about it at all, Qin Gang's movie, you say return to the basics?

Of course, this cost refers to the production cost, the publicity and distribution cost, and it must be doubled, and if it is released overseas, then the follow-up publicity and distribution cost will definitely be higher than the production cost, which is also the norm of the movie.

It's really normal for the publicity budget to be higher than the production budget.

"Speed of Life and Death" is actually not a big movie, there are not many special effects, more stunts, this, it doesn't cost too much money.

"Life and Death" costs a little more than "The Hangover", but it's not that high.

And Fan Wencheng's movie, although it is not a movie that requires special effects, but this movie, many of the tools used, compared with "Speed of Life and Death", are much higher.

First airplanes, then airplanes, then fighters, helicopters.

And "Speed of Life and Death" is also full of Chinese faces, but Fan Wencheng's movie has a large number of actors from abroad.

Although most of the actors are not very famous, the salary is also calculated in American knives.

In addition, this can be said to be an action movie, so the cost of the film is much higher than the previous two.

Back to his roots, Fan Wencheng is not worried, but this time, he is very ambitious, otherwise he would not have found so many foreign actors.
