Chapter 404: Those Years Are Finished

After the achievements of Guanghui Group, He Ling became the general manager of Guanghui Film and Television. The first thing she did when she came to Jiang Hui after taking up her new post was about filming.

"Jiang Hui, "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" is expected to be completed tomorrow, do you want to go over and take a look together?", He Ling said.

Speaking of which, the film has been filming for two months now.

How long does it take to shoot a movie? There's really no standard answer.

There are very classic ones that shoot very quickly. For example, "East Becomes West". This star-studded Chinese New Year film, the funny classic is not behind any of Stephen Chow's comedies, but this movie, which took less than half a month, was Wong Kar-wai's filming of "East Evil and West Poison" seriously exceeded the budget, Liu Zhenwei was called to help, and urgently prepared for filming, and later the box office was also a big hit. Now "East Becomes West" has become a classic, and I never get tired of watching it.

Another example is "Chainsaw", which is the rise of Chinese director Wen Ziren, which created a global box office of more than 120 million at an unprecedented low cost ($1.2 million), which can be said to be the most profitable thriller, the whole film was filmed in 18 days, but amazingly, 18 days also included the pre-production period of 5 days, all the actors did not rehearse at all, but auditioned on the spot, and the main toilet scene was completely filmed in 6 days.

Of course, there are also many movies that are filmed after more than a year or even longer, and there are many classic and bad movies in them.

Overall, "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" was completed in two months, and the speed was relatively fast, which also had a lot to do with Jiang Hui writing some precautions clearly when writing the script.

"It's finally finished? No problem, I'll go with you tomorrow. In addition, the post-production of this film should not take too long, and the publicity work should be arranged as soon as possible," Jiang Hui said.

"I'm already preparing, why wait for you to remind me", He Ling raised her head and said with a little pride.

"That's good, has that glorious ticket been developed? Let them speed up the progress, and make sure that they can be used when "Those Years, the Girl We Chased Together" is released," Jiang Hui said.

"I understand, Glorious Ticketing is currently managed by Glorious Film and Television, and they will report the progress to me every week, and now that it has been developed, it should not affect the release of the movie," He Ling said.

"At present, there is no concept of summer files in China, and I plan to launch this film at the end of July, so that everyone knows that not only Spring Festival movies have a good box office," Jiang Hui said.

"Well, we are planning to see if we can release it globally simultaneously, and we are currently preparing to release it together in South Korea, island countries, treasure islands, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, and the United States will not be involved for the time being," He Ling said.

"You're a good idea, the culture in East Asia is relatively similar, and the film should have a good box office everywhere," Jiang said.

In the previous life, the box office of this film in the mainland was not ideal. On the contrary, the total box office of Baodao is NT$410 million, ranking third in the box office of movies over the years. The total box office of Hong Kong and Hong Kong was 61.86 million Hong Kong dollars, which was the highest-grossing champion of Chinese films that year. Singapore, with a box office of 2.26 million US dollars, was the No. 1 Chinese film grossing that year. Malaysia, with a box office of 1.39 million US dollars, ranked fourth in the grossing Chinese film of the year. In the mainland, the box office is only 75.8 million yuan, which should not be ideal compared to the big hits in other regions, after all, the mainland market is big.

Jiang Hui believes that the reason for this situation is not that the movie is not good-looking, but because the movie was released too late in the mainland - Baodao was released in the mainland nearly half a year after its release. At the level of netizens in the Celestial Empire, they must have brought all kinds of gun versions and even genuine resources to the network sharing, and many people watched the movie on the computer before it was released, so they were naturally unwilling to spend dozens of dollars to go to the cinema.

After all, "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" relied on the plot to win, not the big scene, and I won't feel much regret when watching it on the computer. Otherwise, a treasure island will have a box office of 80 million yuan, and the entire mainland will have a box office of at least 350 million yuan, or even higher.

"However, if it will be released at the end of July, the time is a bit rushed, and other versions can only be translated without dubbing," He Ling said.

"It doesn't matter, the dubbing effect is often not satisfactory, I think as long as there are subtitles for the corresponding text," Jiang Hui said.

Jiang Hui himself does not like to watch dubbed film and television dramas, every time he sees a foreign movie dubbed in Chinese, he will have the feeling of "I am the second Olympics, it's really a dog", and the Chinese dubbing in the movie is often incompatible with the whole movie.

This is not only due to the declining level of voice actors, but also due to the large cultural differences. After all, it's not a language family, and American films like French and German dubbing will certainly not be so awkward. In addition, the way people in the Celestial Empire speak is also very different from that of Europe and the United States, for example, black people often say "hey, man!" and often pull the tone up, and if we translate it and say, "Hey, man!" When we raise the tone, it feels very nondescript.

So Jiang Hui thinks that "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" doesn't need dubbing, just get subtitles in Japanese, Korean, etc. Of course, it's best if individual lines can be corrected according to local characteristics. For example, "when I was in high school" was changed to "when I was in junior high school" at the end of Treasure Island, and these audiences will have a stronger sense of substitution.

……

The finale ceremony of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" was relatively grand, although the media was not invited to participate, but a few reporters still arrived at the scene. That night, the crew held a finale dinner in a five-star hotel, and Jiang Hui also attended.

At the same time, Glorious Film and Television began to share some stills on the official Weibo of Glorious Weibo and began to warm up the film.

As the leading actors of the film, the people of the dream band also began to build momentum for this film, and many of the announcements in the coming month are related to film and television promotion, and Guanghui Film and Television even has plans to arrange for them to go abroad to promote.

Fortunately, Korn Ferry now has a certain influence on the Internet in East Asian countries, so it is not so difficult to publicize. Otherwise, it would not be a little difficult for a new company's films to be released simultaneously around the world.

In order for the company's first theatrical film to be released simultaneously around the world, the employees of Guanghui Film and Television are still working very hard, plus He Ling, the beautiful boss, and Jiang Hui, the big boss, come to inspect the progress every once in a while, and the work enthusiasm of the otaku is even higher.
