Chapter 82 Wu Xiang's big production is a way to save money

(Haibo, you have a little heart!, hey, the image of a good man is gone, what a mess in this circle.) However, hey, hey, the black car will be slowly presented to everyone, don't worry, the more exciting it will be. )

Costume drama, an important capital expenditure, that is, costumes!

Don't underestimate this thing, this costume, there are too many things in it.

The first one, you have to conform to the historical reality of the time, you can't make it up, the audience is not a fool, then there are people who understand history, more than one billion people in the country, and some are smart.

Second, this costume has to be beautiful, you are a film and television work, you don't care what it was like in history, but in film and television works, it is not beautiful, what do you do to shoot? Therefore, you must do a certain amount of artistic processing.

Let's talk about the simplest example, in ancient times, only officials and above could wear silk and satin, but the heroes and chivalrous women of movies and TV series, which one wore less? In ancient times, weren't their status just male (and) hooligans and female hooligans (and) hooligans?

The third is the cost of production. The first two have something to do with the design, to be honest, how much does this design cost, Wu Xiang really doesn't have a score, but I heard that the price of the costume is not low. And in terms of this production, this is also very saying. The materials used in the factory are different, and the production level is different, which you have to consider.

Wu Xiang's previous two dramas, the problem of costumes can be said to be no, everyone can shoot in their own clothes, they are all modern dramas, but they also cost tens of thousands of yuan, and the hero and heroine still have Haiqing.

But now this costume drama is different, the problem is big, what is this for, Wu Xiang wants to ask this teacher Zhao who once directed "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms", this is the super masterpiece of the year!

Not to mention that back then, she will not be able to surpass her in the future, the total investment of this film is more than 170 million yuan, and 170 million yuan before 92 years is what kind of feeling?

Needless to say, in more than ten years, or in 2000, this can be counted.

Moreover, this investment is mainly in the set and other aspects, the salaries of the personnel were very low at the time, and many big stars really didn't get much money, so it can be seen that they were invested somewhere at that time. Besides, this TV series has been filmed for 5 years, which is extremely rare at home and even abroad.

Such a super masterpiece, and most of the money is spent on hardware, so what else can she say about her costume design and costume production?

Later, the little devil made a game of the Three Kingdoms, and many places copied this film.

Wu Xiang's "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty" is also a matter of the Han Dynasty, so since there is such a successful precedent before, why should Wu Xiang find another designer?

Maybe Mr. Zhao's clothes are a little outdated, but as long as you do a little trimming and shears, shouldn't it be very reliable?

Not to mention anything else, it's a great way to save money!

Han Sanye naturally has this connection, and Wu Xiang found Teacher Zhao very smoothly. Mr. Zhao, the old lady is quite approachable, the old lady is very satisfied with Wu Xiang, a guy who can talk, of course, Wu Xiang is also a person to courtesy, fruits, supplements and other things are not less bought.

Mr. Zhao took out his previous materials on the spot, they were all paintings, and put them in Wu Xiang's hand, which means that you kid took it and used it, and there was nothing to say.

This shocked Wu Xiang, he originally spent some money, but he was so generous.

It turns out that these materials are over after filming back then, and there is no future, and no one will ask for them. The key is that there are no contemporaneous dramas, so this information will be dusty, so you can take it away if you want to.

Wu Xiang was moved, he wanted to give money, but the old lady didn't want it, and after that, Wu Xiang secretly stuffed 10,000 yuan in the fruit blue.

If you really want to say that you don't give money, Wu Xiang really can't do this, this is a technical work, which is more valuable than him as a liberal arts student. There is no way, I can't stuff it more, but just this 10,000 yuan also makes Wu Xiang pick up a big bargain.

This information obviously cannot be used directly, because it was many years ago, and from the current point of view, it is a bit unsightly, but it does not meet the aesthetic requirements. This is caused by the changes of the times, which is the second article in the clothing statement.

Because the level of appreciation of the audience is constantly changing, and in general they are improving, and you have to adapt to this change. This is also for what, the clothes in the costume films are getting more and more beautiful, and there will even be a lot of modern elements, in fact, they are all serving the audience.

Although it can't be used directly, it can be changed on this basis, which is the greatest use of this clothing information.

Making improvements on a basis is much more time-saving and labor-saving than direct originality, and the cost is saved at once!

Wu Xiang directly threw this thing to Hao Yi and asked him to find the art department and other art academies, so that young people can use their eyes to transform this material from nearly ten years ago.

Wu Xiang believes that such a change is the best, although these individuals are only students, but they also represent the current trend of popular thought, this rigorous historical research, colliding with modern fashion, tsk, what kind of effect can this produce, Wu Xiang really has great hopes.

Wu Xiang can only get this costume here, as for whether anything else can still use the resources of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", this ...... It seems that there is a camera that can still be used, you can take a scripture or something, or do you want to invite him out of the mountain?

However, Wu Xiang thought about it, Grandpa Bi, you should still engage in the promising profession of hosting.

Oh, and makeup!

Although Wu Xiang can't invite Grandpa Bi out of the mountain, this makeup can make use of the legacy of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", when it is not total, it is better to find Han Sanye......

There is another key point in the cost of big productions, and it is also the most expensive place, and that is extras.

Some people may say that an extras can only give 30-50 a day, how much can it cost?

That's right, this year is indeed this price, but you can't stand up to others!

Wu Xiang's play, he wants a big scene, a big scene will require enough people, we are not Hollywood, we can't do stunts now, and this thing is more fucking expensive, Industrial Light & Magic's current offer is $5 million a minute, I might as well find more fucking people.

The big scenes in the mainland are still good, because at least they can be filmed. If it is in Hong Kong and Treasure Island, Hong Kong is better, because he wants to shoot a big scene with a lot of people, he will come to the mainland, and Treasure Island is now cut directly. It's not a cutout, it's a cutout.

What is 'a sea of people', 'no end in sight'...... Don't appear in the script because you can't shoot such words.

And our advantage is that we have people, that is, we can use the strength of most people to concentrate on doing a big thing!

"Ah, Xiao Wu, why are you here? What else are you bringing with you? This voice is bright, it is none other than Huang Tuanzuo.

Wu Xiang is here to find someone, and he must need a lot of people to attack the Huns in the north in this play, so where can he find so many people? Naturally, he is looking for troops.

"Hello Uncle Huang, I haven't come to see you for a long time, and I'm not busy with my studies recently, so I'll come over and visit the door. "Wu Xiang, this guy is talking nonsense with his eyes open, he has taken a long vacation again.

"Hahaha, okay, I also miss you, come and let's have a good chat, let's go to the two cups in a while?" "Hey, what's wrong with your face?"

But this is a good situation.

"I hit the door, I'm injured, so I won't drink. Wu Xiang took this opportunity to get down to business first. "Actually, I'm coming back with your old dignitaries. ”

"Dignitaries, you can ......" Huang Tuanzuo readily agreed, but. "Your kid has sold a lot of films this time, and our Bayi Factory hasn't been touched, this time it's not possible, you see ......"

Huang Tuanzuo means that this person can provide it, and it doesn't need you Wu Xiang to spend too much money, but we have to be considered a shareholder.

"How much?" Wu Xiang was concerned about this issue, because he knew that finding the troops was the cheapest, and the key was that the extras in the troops were much easier to manage than the ordinary people who went to Nana, and the discipline of the troops was good, so it was worth it.

"Yicheng! However, for this transfer of troops, you don't need to go out of the car, you don't need to go out of the tent, and you don't need to go out of the equipment or anything, but you have to pay for the fuel and the food for this logistics. Huang Tuanzuo added a condition, in fact, this is enough conscience.

"Cheng!" Wu Xiang agreed at that time, which was a reasonable request, but Wu Xiang then asked, "How many people can be produced at most?"

Huang Tuanzao replied: "Two regiments at most." ”

Wu Xiang smiled, "Uncle Huang, you should prepare a division first." ”

Huang Tuanzuo was furious at that time, "Oh, drink! Do you know how big an official your Uncle Huang is?"
