"This movie is full of humanistic care, full of great love, and also composes an epic love movement. ”

Seeing Ma Cheng asking the name of the movie he was going to shoot, Guo Dalu said with a sad and pitiful face: "Our movie is a love movie beyond the ordinary sense, it is a touching and heart-wrenching love story, and it is also a commemoration of the largest shipwreck in human history." ”

Ma Cheng's heart itched when he heard this, and asked, "Master, what's your name?"

Guo Dalu said: "Do you remember a cruise ship that hit an iceberg and sank a hundred years ago?"

Ma Cheng was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "The cruise ship a hundred years ago? Which one are you talking about? ”

As the general manager of a film and television company, he is actually quite knowledgeable, highly educated, highly intelligent, has strong ability, and likes to read, but he generally doesn't pay much attention to some things outside his own position.

In fact, most Chinese people are like this, everyone understands the general major events in Western countries, and as for some "ordinary" things mixed with historical events, it is not enough to make everyone pay attention to them.

Just like when foreigners learn about the culture and history of China, they may know the time of the founding of China and the founding head of the country, but they do not know much about the drought and flood locust plague experienced by China many years ago.

After a ship sank a hundred years ago, although it was a sensation, after all, in the entire Western historical event, it is not even a wave, at best it is just a ripple, and the average Chinese person really doesn't know much about it.

Not to mention Ma Cheng, even historians who study the West, most of them don't know that there is such a thing, and now that Guo Dalu said this, Ma Cheng was completely confused, and he didn't know what Guo Dalu was talking about.

In fact, the same is true in another world, before the movie "Titanic" was broadcast, most people in the world did not know about this shipwreck, and it was not until after the movie was released that everyone knew that in human history, there had been such a tragic shipwreck in the sea.

Seeing that Ma Cheng didn't know anything about the shipwreck, Guo Dalu was too lazy to play riddles, and said directly: "In 1912, Britain once built the world's most luxurious and advanced cruise ship, the name of this cruise ship is called Titanic, known as the unsinkable Titanic, hehe, ironically, during the first sea trial, it hit an iceberg, the cabin leaked, split into two, and sank into the Pacific Ocean. ”

When Guo Dalu was preparing to shoot this movie, he deliberately inquired about the shipwreck, and found that it was similar to the sinking of the Titanic in another world, and there was almost no difference.

At this time, when he told the shipwreck, Ma Cheng listened to it with relish, and finally said: "It turns out that this kind of thing has happened in the West? Guo Ye, you are really knowledgeable, if you don't say these things, it is estimated that I may not know about them in my life." ”

Guo Dalu laughed: "Don't you know now? The movie I want to make is named after the Titanic, well, when this movie is filmed, the investment must be large, there must be many group performances, props, costumes and other things must be complete." In the past, I made martial arts films, and most of them were Chinese costume films, but now I am shooting this movie, which is a Western costume romance film, and I must shoot the cultural atmosphere and characteristics of that era, at the very least, I can't let foreigners find fault with the details!"

Ma Chengdao: "If that's the case, we have to find local experts and scholars and listen to their suggestions, otherwise there will be jokes." Some time ago, there was a clothing company abroad, wasn't it because I didn't understand our culture, and the Chinese-style clothing designed was incomprehensible and embarrassed?"

Guo Dalu said with a smile: "That's because the designers of this company are stupid, and they don't even understand the most basic Chinese culture, so they dare to do design, and stupidity is not enough to describe these people." However, my research on Western history and culture is much stronger than those fake China experts, and I can say that the vast majority of foreigners are inferior to me in the study of Western history and literature!"

Ma Chengdao: "Well, with your words, I won't say anything, I'll go to contact Hollywood people now, prepare to select actors, and the matching of the crew, I'll make some preparations in advance." ”

It was the first time he saw Guo Dalu to make a movie with a Western theme, and he felt very novel, and after Guo Dalu gave him the script, he began to analyze the feasibility of the script with the company's internal employees and the fit with today's market.

In Tianxi Film and Television, basically any film and television script must be analyzed by a group of market analysts, to see the market potential and possible audience of the script, only the film script approved by the marketing department, the company will invest in shooting, otherwise, if you want to apply for investment, it will be much more difficult.

In the entire Tianxi Film and Television Group, there are many film and television directors, and there are also some actors who act and direct, and they also want to be addicted to directors, so they will also apply to the company for investment and shooting.

If these people want to get investment, they have to hand over their ideas and shooting intentions and scripts to the company's marketing department for discussion.

But Guo Dalu is the only exception, but whenever Guo Dalu's script comes out, the market analysts of the entire marketing department dare not analyze it, because Guo Dalu's script has not made money for so many years, and there is only one question they can consider, that is, how much money can be made, and how to maximize the profits of this movie.

After studying the script of "Titanic", and through Guo Dalu's description of the characters in the work, Ma Cheng was no longer verbose, and directly began to openly select the male and female protagonists and supporting actors of this movie around the world.

Meilun Lion, which has been a partner with Tianxi Film and Television Company before, is Guo Dalu's partner this time, everyone is an old friend, this film and television company has long been secretly controlled by Guo Dalu, and the relevant person in charge has long been replaced by someone from the Overseas Alliance, it can be said that Guo Dalu's younger brother is the younger brother of Guo Dalu's younger brother, and Guo Dalu is simply obedient to his words, and he will do whatever he says, and no one dares to complain.

Tianxi Film and Television has also cooperated with other film and television companies before, although the cooperation is okay, but there will inevitably be some stumbles during the process, the environment for shooting movies abroad is completely different from that in China, and sometimes you have to face the threat of gang members, or the intimidation of local ruffians, and the safety is not limited.

However, after cooperating with Meilun Lion Industry this time, when the employees of Tianxi Film and Television were preparing for the movie, they were surprised to find that the entire shooting environment suddenly improved, no one came to make trouble anymore, and no one intimidated them......
