Chapter 121: Rushing to North America

The filming of "Undefeated in the East" ended.

On the afternoon of the announcement of the finale, the staff left the crew one after another, and they didn't even want to participate in the finale dinner held in the evening.

Without him, I'm too tired, all kinds of dark and dark, day and night upside down, who can stand it?

Pao Hui is the same, after finishing the shooting, he returned to the hotel and slept enough for six hours, which gathered a bunch of post-production and briefly expounded the editing concept of "Undefeated in the East": fast-paced, compact plot!

is basically the consistent style of Xu Hui's martial arts movies, and the editors in charge of editing are editors who have been working together for several years, so they naturally know what to do.

After explaining the style of the later period, Xu Hui went back to the capital directly.

Recently, Xu Hui has been very busy, and the entire Huiwen world has also been very busy.

First of all, "Orphaned" received a very good response abroad, and the company decided to hit the awards season.

This is completely unexpected, including Xue Xiaolu himself, who defined "Orphaned" as a commercial road movie, and never thought that he would win an award.

Sometimes, fate just comes so suddenly...

The company decided to wait for the Golden Globe Awards to announce the nominations before releasing "Orphaned"...

"Dao Ma Dan" is about to be released, and the three main protagonists have started the publicity routine, Hot Bar, Nazha and Zhao Baozi.

The heroine group drama, the most important thing is the fan position!

Especially these three are all traffic factions with tens of millions of fans, the official set: hot bar, buns and then Naza, the fans of the buns originally wanted to tear up, Huiwen World has been decided, you want to tear it, you have to find a suitable reason.

"Dao Ma Dan" is not a big IP adaptation, and there is no original work, only a short text introduction from Huiwen Tianxia's official Weibo: 'In the early Republic of China, the country was in turmoil, and the warlords divided the people. Cao Yun is the daughter of the great warlord General Cao...'

Tell all the audience that Cao Yun is the absolute protagonist!

Thanks to the hot bar, I often sent some group photos with Liying before, ate together or something, and confessed a few words affectionately if I had nothing to do - they are all harem flowers and need to be closely united...

The company is also happy to create a harmonious and stable atmosphere for actors.

The fans didn't riot much...

By the way, the crew of "Dao Ma Dan" also sent two hot bars in tunics, respectively, the shy Li Ying and Nazha's promotional posters...

For a while, there were a bunch of 'foodie CP powder' and 'Shengshi beauty CP powder'...

A series of marketing, "Dao Ma Dan" is not like just wanting to win the box office champion in the first ten days, the goal is very clear - National Day file!

As the director of "Dao Ma Dan", Lu Yang is all kinds of nervous, if "Dao Ma Dan" fails again, he will have no face!

The company is full of confidence in him, and IP sequels like "Embroidered Spring Knife 2", saying that he will really direct him alone, and even in some ways he clashed with Xu Hui, who is also the boss of the producer, and the other party still agreed to shoot according to his wishes.

As a result, after the release of "Embroidered Spring Knife 2", the box office hit the street, uh, it can't be said to hit the street, but at least it didn't reach the company's original plan, nor did it reach the baseline in Lu Yang's heart!

Although the company finally decided to continue filming the "Embroidered Spring Knife" series, and Lu Yang continued to serve as the director and chief screenwriter, "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" and "Huang Feihong: The Wind of the King" were released successively, and the box office and reputation were not low, and Wu Jing was forgotten, after all, he was Huang Feihong himself, and the mass foundation was here.

But, Chen Snail?

A directing student who graduated from Pheasant Academy, in terms of qualifications and strength, which point is he comparable to himself?

actually became a member of the 500 million+ club, and Wanda also offered a high price to invite him to know "Tai Chi Man" starring Keanu Reeves!

Damn, jealousy is his red-eyed...

When Lu Yang was the director, Chen Snail was still in school, when filming "Huang Feihong", Chen Snail was just a primary school apprentice who followed Xu Hui's buttocks, but Lu Yang was the big guy who directed Group B...

Of course, this kind of talk can only be held in the stomach, if he says something in the group, 'there is no hero at the time, make the shaft famous', he will be laughed at to death...

"The Gift of Room No. 7", which was originally scheduled for November, is estimated to be adjusted to mid-October, and "Orphaned" has been withdrawn.

……

Outside of the movie, Huiwen World's first theme park has finally opened.

The area is not too big, certainly not as big as Disney, but not small, at least comparable to Fangte.

Of course, the projects that are open now are no different from ordinary amusement parks, except for the 'Huang Feihong Theme Town' and the 'Dragon Gate Inn Film Commune', as well as the reserved 'Di Renjie Town' and 'Liaozhai Theme Town'...

Hangzhou, as Xu Hui's hometown, is equivalent to the base camp of Huiwen World, after the opening of the theme park, the number of people is okay, according to the calculation of the person in charge, the profit is not very optimistic, but there is absolutely no problem with capital preservation!

On the opening day, Xu Hui, as the chairman of Huiwen World, will definitely appear.

According to the script, I said a lot of nonsense about the concept of Huiwen Entertainment...

The next day, I bought a bunch of press releases and reported on them for a week...

At the same time, Huiwen and Hengda teamed up to acquire seven pieces of land in seven major cities across the country, all of which were used to build theme parks, movie communes or movie towns...

Once a piece of land is hung with the name of Huiwen, it is equivalent to cultural and entertainment undertakings, and the national policy will give preferential treatment, which will generally be one-third cheaper than commercial land!

One-third is not a small amount, which is why Hengda has always teamed up with Huiwen.

Yes, on the surface, there is nothing to make money from building a theme park, but this is a real estate project, and in China, there is no time when real estate projects are not profitable!

Besides, in a few years, Huiwen's influence will be even greater, and the theme park will definitely be profitable!

……

The market in September has always been very low, and after the carnival of the summer file, before the arrival of the traditional schedule of the National Day file, there will generally be no big movies released.

This year is a little different, and the domestic film protection month continues until the end of August.

As a result, we can see that the four blockbusters of "The Amazing Spider-Man", "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises", "Prometheus", and "The Expendables 2" were all released between the end of August and September 4, and a bunch of blockbusters lifted the market to 70 million...

"The Expendables" was the first to be introduced into China in the form of a batch of films, after all, no one knew at that time whether the movie under the banner of "daring to die" could be released in China, and 500,000 US dollars won the broadcast rights in the mainland, which was definitely a big profit!

As a result, "The Expendables 2" can no longer be introduced in the form of batch films... Even if you want to bring it in, with Hollywood's usual urine, it is unlikely to be sold for $500,000, and the price will be at least ten times more than tenfold!

Throughout mid-September, not a single domestic movie that could be called good was released...

In addition to "White Deer Plain"...

"White Deer Plain", which has been promoted for a long time, also met with you in September.

As the winner of the Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival, "White Deer Plain" has long been hyped as a masterpiece of domestic literary adaptations!

Whether it is the investor or the crew, we will always say that we insist on treating movies the way we treat art!

After all, there are really not many purely literary adaptations of movies in recent years, and the last one is called "Lust and Caution"

It was originally a very connotative work, but I was stunned and attracted all my attention by the creative bed scene!

Indeed, to say it arbitrarily: the two major art forms of mainland literature and film have been emasculated to the death...

However, this should not be a reason for "White Deer Plain" to follow the main bed scene and erotic * desire of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" when it is promoted!

Screenwriter Lu Wei was very angry, and when he accepted "Oriental Daily", he said, "Director Wang's spiritual direction is to make the land and epic into a greasy and crooked relationship between men and women, he wants to shoot erotic scenes, and what I do is the land epic and the changes of the times." Even though he used a lot of my stuff, it was still his work from a spiritual point of view. After reading his script, I felt that he didn't eat it thoroughly, the key words of "White Deer Plain" from beginning to end were always the land and fate of farmers, he was not talking about eroticism, not about beautiful buttocks. This understanding of "White Deer Plain" is really low-level.

Regarding the title of "White Deer Plain" to reward the screenwriter of Reed, Reed was noncommittal.

After all, many of the transitions and links in it used his script, and this is a lot of screenwriting fees!

I took the money and beeped, this kind of thing, Reed disdains to do it...

Chinese movies are really incomprehensible, in the nineties of the last century, they were very open, we had "Alive", "Farewell My Concubine", who would have thought, it would not be open after 20 years, but in the 80s, there was a movie "Furong Town"...

To be honest, a theme like "White Deer Plain" itself should not be adapted into a movie in such an era, and if it is filmed, it is best that it should be shot by a master!

Is Wang Quan'an a master?

Obviously not, otherwise the Golden Bear would have been awarded to him, so why should it be awarded to photography?

Director Wang is really good, he finished writing the script of "White Deer Plain" in 16 days, and then started filming...

intercepted the 'life of the disgusted Tian Xiao'e' from "White Deer Plain", took all kinds of erotic shots, and in turn accused the censorship...

In his opinion, it seems that this "White Deer Plain" only has desire...

Also, as a pure man who picks two prostitutes, isn't there only desire left!

So we can see "White Deer Plain", in the movie, men want to talk about women, and women think about men...

Tsk, it's really better to make a pure film...

Many people say that it is because of the deletion of an hour of scenes, so it makes people feel inexplicable.

The Berlinale released an unabridged version, and the results were not a lot of bad reviews, and it was generally considered that the 3-hour film was too long...

If you really want to be awesome, don't release it in China!

If you don't have the ability to shoot, this is obviously a money-making behavior.

Otherwise, there will be no compromise, and if you compromise, don't use this as an excuse.

If it can't be released, you as a director will scold two sentences for excusation, and after cutting and cheating the money, you will say that this has nothing to do with you, isn't this obviously nonsense?

……

On September 17th, Xu Hui finally settled the company's affairs, did not notify anyone, and flew to North America alone...
