Chapter 146: Sicily
The industry was shocked by Huiwen's generosity.
We all know that the large-scale invasion of capital into the market will definitely cause the value of well-known actors and directors to skyrocket, and the giants must have corresponding measures, and binding their directors and actors is definitely one of the most effective and direct ways.
I just didn't expect it to be such a high price!
In addition to being shocked, the reactions were mixed, Huayi's reaction was to quickly follow suit and tie Feng Xiaogang to his chariot, and some small companies were in pain, and the price rise was too scary!
Five years ago, the production cost of "Rouge Snow" was 28 million, which had already set the highest price TV series for mainland film and television dramas, and now, without a production cost of 100 million, I am embarrassed to take it out for publicity!
The film and television industry is getting more and more popular, more and more people want to come in and get a piece of the pie, this place in Beijing, Mancafe, Wangjing Xiaojiao, Sanlitun and other places keep hearing people shouting, "I have signed a contract with whoever in this play!
……
There is nothing worth saying in the mainland film market, "The Gift of Room No. 7" continues to dominate the single-day box office, and according to the new films released, it can be maintained at least until the release of "Youth Pi" on the 22nd.
At that time, the box office potential of "Room Seven" was almost exhausted.
Yang Qing signed a new director's contract and stayed in Huiwen, but he won't direct new movies for the time being, he is also a little tired and needs to take a vacation...
Since the release of "Sword and Horse", Lu Yang has been making sub-scenes for the script "Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire", and it is estimated that it will take two months to establish the project;
Xue Xiaolu's "Beijing Meets Seattle" has been launched, not surprisingly, the male number one found Uncle Wu, and the female number one is Liu Feifei, the ghost knows how she saw that these two people had a sense of CP, "Orphaned" is scheduled for January 18 next year, and it has been confirmed that it has been shortlisted for the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film;
The "Chinese Partner" project invited Chen Kexin, the three leading actors, Deng Chao, Huang Xiaoming, and Wang Kai, are being filmed;
The Chinese New Year is approaching, and various companies have begun to work the early publicity.
This year's Lunar New Year file has the title of the longest schedule in history!
Probably in order to complete the annual KPI, the relevant departments directly advanced the opening time of the Chinese New Year file from mid-December to November 22 in previous years, and the end time is February 14 next year, that is to say, in 78 days, there are no imported blockbusters...
Huayi's main hit "1942" and "Zodiac", November 29, "1942" was released, and December 20 "Zodiac" was released, and a good hand of cards!
Bona has "Big Shanghai", Wang Jing probably has made too many bad movies, and he wants to be sincere;
Xingmei also has two movies, "The King's Feast" and "Blood Drops", the former is Lu Chuan's first time competing in the Chinese New Year file, probably "Nanjing! Nanjing!" was suffocated, so Lu Chuan carefully interpreted the Hongmen Banquet with a powerful idea of shame before the snow, and must restore the meaning behind that meal!
So no matter how small the promotional poster is, you will definitely be able to see the four big characters of 'Road String Works'!
"The King's Feast" is set for November 29;
"Blood Drops" is produced by Chen Kexin and directed by Liu Weiqiang, and the two worked together to drum up a work, which is scheduled for December 20;
Xingmei seems to want to fight with Huayi!
The eldest king in the late stage of procrastination, his "The Grandmaster" has finally surfaced, and it is said that it will be released in mid-December...
Huiwen Tianxia originally wanted to set "Thai Embarrassment" on December 20, but after thinking about it, it would be better to release it in advance to start a word of mouth, so it was raised to December 12;
"Journey to the West" will be released on February 8 next year.
A bunch of propaganda circulars fill the Internet as if they didn't want money.
There are voices of public accounts everywhere, this one says, I am optimistic that "1942" will sweep the New Year file, and that one will beep "Zodiac", and the eldest brother will not be old!
As for "Thai Embarrassment", Huiwen must also pay attention to publicity, after all, it is the main work of the Chinese New Year film, although Xu Hui said that "Thai Embarrassment" will create a miracle, the company will still be skeptical...
……
It's time for Cinema Paradiso to kick off.
One of the Tornatore Time Trilogy, a story about a small island, a dream, a hometown, first love, a choice, a renunciation, a departure, a return.
Unlike the magnificence of "The Pianist at Sea", nor the beauty and ups and downs of "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", "Cinema Paradiso" is unpretentious and unpretentious, so it has become the least well-known film in the trilogy, but it is Xu Hui's favorite one, and I believe everyone who loves movies will think so.
Italy is not very good at fighting, and the most contributors to World War I and World War II are jokes.
But Italian cinema really influenced the entire course of film history, and it was precisely because of the Italian neorealism trend that there was a new Hollywood.
Masters of cinema: Fellini, Visconti, Antonioni, Rossellini, Leone, Bertolucci, Tornatore, Pasolini and, of course, Robert Bernini...
Leone contributed westerns to Hollywood, and the Italian also made "Once Upon a Time in America"!
Of course, the current Italian film has long since declined, and the data shows that ninety percent of the total Italian box office is captured by Hollywood every year, and even the Venice Film Festival has collapsed...
There is only one Tindo Barras in existence, a famous erotic master, well, recommend a few: "The Erotic History of the Roman Empire", "Lady Katie", "Red Hot Chili Peppers", no thanks!
Speaking of "Cinema Paradiso", this movie is very long and boring, but it will make people watch it in tears, full of emotions and complicated, and there will be a sense of aphasia after watching it, and I don't know where to start.
There are three themes: thinking about time about growing up, dreams and hometowns, distances and homecomings, and most importantly, reviewing and presenting the development of films.
Alpacino, who plays Evert, already lives in Sicily, of course, as a tourist;
Matt, the adult actor of Duoduo, has already told the crew that he will join the crew in mid-December;
The actor of Childhood Duoduo, and finally found Jacob Tremblay, Xu Hui had a little impression of him, the 2015 movie "Room", he played very excitingly, to be honest, if he is shortlisted for the Oscars, then Xiao Lizi's Best Actor may be postponed again...
Duoduo's first love Elena, the touchstone recommended Kristen Stewart, Xu Hui thought her face was too flat, and originally wanted to find Watsons, Emma Watson, but this sister's price was too high, 8 million US dollars, damn it, Matt was cute and only offered 2 million US dollars, sister!
In the end, after several rounds of looking for Zoe Deschanel, Ed Belasco, who was in charge of casting, said that he could see the feeling of first love in Zoe's eyes...
Well, it's cheap anyway, and Zoe's acting skills are pretty good.
In fact, Xu Hui wants to find Black Widow, if not for anything else, just to help her fulfill her dream of a literary movie!
It's a pity that Scarlett Johansson's price is too expensive, and even if the price is reduced, it will at least be parallel to Matt, so I can only endure the pain of love...
Several other roles, such as Duoduo's mother, found Julianne Moore, who has always been famous, but the salary is not high, because she has been starring in independent films...
The small supporting actors try to find local tricks...
The local people in Sicily already know the news of where Xu Hui will shoot a movie, of course, Xu Hui is nothing, but the starring roles are Al Pasimano and Matt is cute, which has to be taken seriously!
No problem with security!
Xu Hui is very concerned about security, because Sicily is the birthplace of the mafia...
On November 12th, Xu Hui led several photographers who have been working with him to Italy to start the final preparations for the film, and strive to start shooting at the end of November!
