Chapter 345 The Ukrainian "butcher" is replaced by a "butcher", and he doesn't eat hairy pigs
(Order!)
Beijing, a café. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Director Wu Ershan, your script is not good, didn't I tell you that in the plot, except for the role of the Jade Emperor, you have to make some changes, everything else must be based on the original story?"
After accompanying Zhang Zilin for a few days, Fu Luo received the script written by Wu Ershan, and he frowned knowing that he had only read a short paragraph, because the other party had too many private goods mixed in it, and he didn't take what he told to heart at all.
"Mr. Fu, if the movie is all shot according to the original book, will it be too unpleasant?"
Wu Ershan has to admit that he did add a lot of his own thoughts and understandings, because he thinks what is the point of simply repeating the plot of "Havoc in Heaven"?
"Surprise? "Journey to the West" itself is a well-known story, and no surprises are precisely the biggest advantage, so we don't need to surprise the audience in the plot, but to surprise the audience visually, not any 5 cents, 5 yuan special effects, that's why I invested so much, Director Wu Ershan, I really hope you can recognize this. ”
In other words, Fu Luo invested a minimum of 100 million US dollars in the movie "Havoc in Heaven", but it was not for people to use it as an experiment, Wu Ershan added personal ideas to the script, which is really annoying, before the strength of a big director, can you not play with the temper of a big director?
"Mr. Fu, is this really not discussed?"
Although it is not easy to show it directly, Wu Ershan is also a little unhappy in his heart, since he handed over the script to write and the movie to him to shoot, and now he is meddling in various ways, is it just for him to be a puppet?
"Director Wu Ershan, "Havoc in Heaven" is a commercial film through and through. Fu Luo said that, and he didn't want to say anything more, and it was just a waste of everyone's time to continue to break it.
"Mr. Fu, then I want to quit "Havoc in Heaven". ”
Gritting his teeth, Wu Ershan finally made this decision, he didn't care if it was a commercial film or an art film, and he didn't even have to add his ideas to the movie, but he really couldn't accept being a puppet, without a little bit of his own will, being intervened by various strong interventions from the investor, a director who completely lost himself, that was really not what he wanted.
"Yes, if Wu Ershan has to quit "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace", I personally respect your opinion, after all, this is also your freedom, then we will meet again. ”
Wu Ershan was so decisive, so that Fu Luo was really a little surprised, but the words had already been said for this part, he had nothing to continue to hesitate, without the king butcher, would there be no Li butcher?
Then he didn't care about anything else, stood up and turned around and left, with his status as he is today, it seems that he doesn't have to care too much about anything, and at the same time, Fu Luo also made up his mind in his heart that he is going to write the script of "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace" himself, so as not to have any uncontrollable factors.
And here, after seeing Fu Luo leave with people, Wu Ershan also sighed in the café, to be honest, he still has a little regret about missing a top production of hundreds of millions of dollars, but he doesn't regret it, because he has found his next home, which is also one of the reasons why he quit so simply, and it can be regarded as his little confidence.
…………
Time passed, and soon half a month passed, and then came the 28th Xiangjiang Film Awards on April 19.
Then Fu Luo starred in "Red Cliff", except for winning five technical awards, nothing else was won, naturally including him was also shortlisted for Best Actor, this actor was finally taken away by Zhang Jiahui of "Witness", he personally has no regrets, although his popularity is very high, but almost no one in the industry is optimistic that "Red Cliff" can win the award, and Donnie Yen of "Ip Man" is the most popular in the industry.
It's a pity that this award was finally taken by Zhang Jiahui, so that the "universe is the most capable of fighting" that the acceptance speech has been prepared, and finally was beaten in the face.
Although Fu Luo could spare time, he didn't go to the Xiangjiang Academy Awards, anyway, the chance of winning the award was almost none, he didn't want to fly all the way to Xiangjiang to sit for a few hours and fly back, not to mention wasting money, but also to enjoy the whole embarrassing journey.
Just like how embarrassing Zhang Guoli was to present an award, he told a piece of film history and let wireless cut it, this year's wireless in charge of broadcasting is really "unlimited", the big scissors technology is more than radio and television666, as long as it has something to do with Asia TV, all the words are cut, but Fan Shaohuang's foul language on stage is not cut, and it is not too red to target Asian TV and mainland filmmakers.
Of course, what is even more bullshit is that some Xiangjiang people, you say that you complain about the Academy Awards to "Xiangjiang Radio and Television", and even sarcastically say that it is like a mainland TV series, and it is really a group of dogs who forget who their father is all the time.
However, an award that has declined, Fu Luo forgot about it, and he quickly devoted himself to his business, because of Wu Ershan's withdrawal, he naturally had to find a replacement director.
It's just that there are really not many directors in China who are good at this kind of special effects blockbuster, and it can even be said that there are no directors at all, and in the end, Fu Luo finally picked Chen Jiashang.
At least "Painted Skin" is still a good shot, although this movie looks more like an action movie, and there are not many special effects shots, but there are still some of them, and they can be regarded as having a certain amount of experience, which is more suitable than Wuershan to some extent.
After having such an idea, Fu Luo didn't hesitate too much, and immediately sent an invitation to the Chen family, and the other party's reaction speed was quite fast, and he replied the next day that he would meet in the capital, and he didn't know if he was dazzled by the cost of at least 100 million US dollars.
Soon, on the 23rd, Fu Luo met with Chen Jiashang in the conference room of Dune Entertainment, and the final result was unexpectedly smooth, the other party barely hesitated too much, and after listening to his general description, he took over the movie "Havoc in Heaven" on the spot, and said that after filming "Painted Skin", he was a little unsatisfied, and this "Havoc in Heaven" with a large number of special effects shots appeared just right.
Chen Jiashang can be so simple, so that Fu Luo can also end up relaxed, after the director has it, he naturally has to start looking for a suitable behind-the-scenes team, such as costumes, art direction, and special effects, which are the top priorities of "Havoc in Heaven", relatively speaking, actors are not so important.
Finally, after discussing with director Chen Jiashang, Fu Luo was ready to invite Zhang Shuping and Ye Jintian, two of the top costumes and art directors in the industry, to join the crew of "Havoc in Heaven".
As for the special effects, if you want to find the best, Fu Luo then set his sights on special effects companies such as Industrial Magic Light and Vita, and it is initially estimated that the cost in this area will be at least more than 70 million US dollars, and two-thirds of the cost must be used to achieve the world's top vision.
Next, before the filming of "Crime Union" started at the end of May, Fu Luo devoted all his time to the preliminary preparations for "Havoc in Heaven".
Now that his identity and status are different, he will naturally not encounter the kind of fate that no one cared about before, and finally after several rushes, he finally brought 20 million from Huayi Brothers, 20 million from China Film, 10 million from Shangying, 20 million from Guangguang, 10 million from the Emperor, and 20 million from Starlight, the units are naturally RMB, no more, no less, just reached the small goal of 100 million he set.
And the reason why these companies are willing to join "Havoc in Heaven" is that in addition to a small part of the investment mentality, Huayi and China Film have cooperated many times, and they are always a little affectionate, and other companies naturally have their own considerations, and the hundreds of big screens built by Dune Cinema still play a big role.
Of course, taking this opportunity, various companies are stuffing people into the "Havoc in Heaven", the "No. 1 masterpiece in China", which is the most thoroughly stuffed is starry, Jing Tiantian has been sure that he will join the movie, ready to start his own "open" life.
To be honest, Fu Luodu thought that Lu Zheng was frightened at the beginning, and he would definitely not dare to appear again, but he didn't expect to end up in the pit, no, he entered the cornucopia, and he could still lose money by following him?
