Hollywood movies are very fond of making sequels, and the first part has laid a mass foundation, and the second and third parts will follow immediately.

Very simply, as a film company, it is necessary to ensure long-term financial and income stability, but film is a very risky field of investment, and no film company can guarantee that the film will not lose money. As a result, the filming sequel is the most guaranteed means, with the previous work as the foundation, the sequel is basically drought and flood protection!

In the Chinese market, there are very few original dramas that are praised and called, and a number of them have emerged in recent years, and they have been sequels immediately...

The reason why the film industry is called the film industry is because there is a complete system in operation.

It's not that those blockbusters in Hollywood didn't shoot the first one, saw that the market responded well, and then made the second one, but it was decided to make a series at the project approval stage.

Of course, if the market reaction to the first part is too bad, then the project can only be canceled ...

There are too many uncertainties in the Chinese film market, but there will be no shortage of good screenwriters and directors, what is lacking are producers and producers who know both creation, business, and discovery!

In the project establishment stage, no one can grasp the trend of future development!

Even Xu Guangtou, when he was working on "Thai Embarrassment", you said that Wang Changtian dared to make a decision to shoot "Hong Kong Embarrassment"?

With the success of "Do Not Disturb 1", 2 was polished in the follow-up;

With the accumulation of "Painted Skin 1", I was able to make "Painted Skin 2" with great interest.

Xu Hui's "Once Upon a Time" is different, to be precise, he has the memory of the original time and space, and he knows the energy of this IP very well, so from the beginning of the filming of the first part, he has already thought about making it into a series.

Sometimes I really admire the underworld in Xiangjiang, how did they make so many excellent movies?

The second "Men Should Be Self-Reliant" is significantly less than "Top Gun", which is a masterpiece in the true sense!

There are a lot less daily descriptions of apprentices, and of course, there are still a lot of shots of Liang Kuan...

The shots in it, each of which can be used as a textbook narration.

For example, the bird cage symbolizes the bird-like Chinese people in the cage;

For example, a series of shots of the blind man playing and singing to himself;

For example, the wonderful fight between Huang Feihong and the White Lotus Sect Master, the action design can be described as earth-shattering and crying ghosts and gods, and there is no one before or since.

Especially the sentence at the end of Sun Wen: 'I hope that the morning sun will always shine on my land, and don't forget the blood of the martyrs!'

Coupled with the theme song of "Men Should Be Self-Improvement"...

The Spring Festival Gala in 16 years was very boring, forcibly all kinds of chicken soup, and I couldn't stand it without a red scarf, but when I saw Huang Feihong's sentence 'The morning sun always shines on my soil', I instantly had the urge to cry...

This is a national sentiment that goes deep into the bone marrow!

By the way, there is a Cantonese lyrics in "Men Should Be Self-Improvement", and a section of "Shocking Xiaomeng Remembering Qiujuan" in the famous Nanyin song "Away Autumn Hate".

‘… Drifting away, don't ask the antecedents, only to see the remnants of the mid-mountain, shining on a sad person..."

It's embarrassing, now that Cantonese opera is a little withered, in order to find a folk artist who can sing this line, Pao Hui searched several Cantonese opera clubs in a daze, and only then invited an old-timer who is over the age of old, Mr. Peng Chiquan!

……

Xu Hui arrived in Foshan and met with the main creators of the crew on the same day.

In other words, Nanhai Film and Television City has also attracted a lot of crews this time because of the "Huang Feihong" series, and the three TV series that will be produced by Huiwen World have been signed.

In return, it is necessary to give more convenience to the "Huang Feihong" series, not only to help reproduce the signboard street of the Thirteen Lines in the late Qing Dynasty, to renovate the flower boat on the bank of the Pearl River, and to change the "makeover" of some local medicine stores to "Bao Zhilin"...

These are all built by Nanhai Film and Television City for free!

Otherwise, just relying on the people of the Paohui crew, let alone starting in July, it would be good to start filming before the end of the year!

Of course, in addition to Nanhai Film and Television City, there are more filming locations in Shawan and Lingnan Impression Park in Guangdong...

Basically, the door is wide open, after all, "Once Upon a Time" is already the highest-grossing movie in the Chinese film industry!

A local restaurant in Foshan.

Xu Hui and Li Zhongzhi arrived last, and the two discussed things, but it was a little late...

The box was already very lively.

Wu Yue, He Bing, and Wang Ban are all in the drama circle, and they chatted very warmly, Huang Yuetai and Xi Zhongwen exchanged some old stories in Cantonese, Wu Jing was training his younger brother, Zhou Yiwei, Tong Liya hugged Xie Nannan and laughed from time to time...

Nima, I feel like this crew doesn't need a director at all...

Yaya was the first to notice Xu Hui, and said in a mocking tone: "Yo, isn't this our fairy brother!"

Pao Hui was a little puzzled, and after sitting down, he asked rhetorically, "... What fairy brother?"

"The man of the fairy sister, isn't that the fairy brother..."

“… You really should read more books, the man of the fairy sister should be called the day you immortal... What the hell, who is Liu Yifei's man, what do you say!"

"Hehe..."

In response to him was Tong Liya's sneer.

"Director, don't you know yet, it should be spread all over the Internet by now..."

Xie Nannan explained with a smile.

"It's normal for the sake of movie promotion, it's all a scandal, everyone just understands! Eat, eat..."

Pao Hui's face remained unchanged, and he calmly proposed that everyone eat.

After a full meal and a few people began to chat...

"I really didn't expect that our "Huang Feihong" would be sold to such an extent!"

Huang Yuetai was a little emotional.

“… Yes, now everywhere I go, people call me Master Huang! I have nothing to do with Huang Feihong in my life!"

Wu Jing also sighed.

“… Filming hard will always pay off!"

Pao Hui smiled and nodded.

"Once Upon a Time" is a big hit, and the producer can not treat the main creators of the crew at a loss, and everyone has a big red envelope!

"I can't say the same, many people are also very attentive, but the market does not accept the works that are filmed..."

"The main thing is that Director Xu has vision!"

"Director Xu, how much do you say the box office of this "Men Should Be Self-Improvement" can be?"

A few people were completely convinced of Xu Hui.

Before the start of filming, Xu Hui said that he would create a box office miracle, and the result was really like this.

“… It shouldn't be worse than "Lingyun Zhuangzhi", look at the schedule, if the schedule is good, I estimate that it can break one billion!"

Xu Hui thought about it for a while and gave a fairly 'conservative' answer.

The commerciality of "Men Should Be Self-Improvement" is much stronger than that of "Lingyun Ambition".

"Billion!"

Several people looked at each other, and their eyes were full of shock.

“… By the way, Yaya, you're from the Xibe tribe, so you can't eat dog meat, right?"

Xu Hui suddenly thought of something and asked.

There is a description in the movie that the thirteenth aunt eats fragrant meat, and the so-called fragrant meat is dog meat!

I don't understand why you added this paragraph to the plot, the dog is so cute, it's our best friend!"

Tong Liya was obviously a little excited.

After all, her bottom line is involved.

“… Eldest sister, Huang Feihong is from Foshan, how can he not eat dog meat? Forget it, if you don't eat it, when we shoot, we will replace it with beef... You can always eat beef, right?"
