Chapter 730: No Contrast, No Harm
"The Legend of the Gods" certainly has the flaws of the movie itself, but in fact, in the eyes of professionals, the only desirable special effects are actually not good. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Xuanhuang's heavyweight production results of the year, but they hit the street to this extent, and completely made a bad movie, how can you not be anxious?
Jiao Yuzhen, the director of "The Legend of the Gods", can be regarded as smashing the signboard he had just established at once.
Jiao Yuzhen is not a big director, but he won nearly 100 million box office with a low-cost martial arts film, so he became famous in one fell swoop.
It's just that Jiao Yuzhen is too ambitious, although "The Legend of the Gods" is a mythological movie, many places are actually very related to martial arts films.
It's just because of the blind pursuit of special effects, the plot of "The Legend of the Gods" turned out to be a mess, and a lot of money was spent to make special effects, but there was no waste of money, but because of the special effects lens, Jiao Yuzhen was reluctant to give up, and as a result, it led to the current embarrassing situation.
With a cost of 30 million US dollars, it is considered a big production in China, but in terms of special effects blockbusters, it can only be regarded as a small and medium-cost film.
There are many special effects blockbusters in Hollywood movies, and it is true that special effects overwhelm the plot, but Hollywood movies, especially special effects blockbusters, have a very distinctive feature, that is, the plot is simple and outrageous.
However, although the plot of "The Legend of the Gods" is not complicated, because of too many redundant special effects shots, the result has become nondescript.
The special effects at the level of 30 million US dollars are certainly remarkable, but which of the movies and Hollywood blockbusters in the same period is not known for special effects?
Therefore, there is no harm if there is no comparison, once compared, the only special effect that satisfies the audience in "The Legend of the Gods" is actually the general in the short man.
Liu Xuan, as the producer of "The Legend of the Gods" and the person in charge of investment, has great expectations for "The Legend of the Gods", but unfortunately, the result almost did not make Liu Xuan vomit blood.
At this time, suddenly an assistant came to report.
"What? You said that you want to receive the follow-up promotion of "Fengshen War"?" Liu Xuan looked confused.
"The Legend of the Gods" has been released for more than a week, and it can basically be declared a failure, at this time, an advertising company suddenly appeared and said that it would take over the follow-up promotion of "The Legend of the Gods"?
"Yes, that's what the gold ad says. The assistant was also a little confused.
In fact, Huaguo's movie releases are basically planned and promoted by themselves, and they are rarely outsourced to other companies, of course, it is not that there are none, but very few.
As for the Dianjin advertisement, which was only released a week after the movie was released, it was really the first time that it had to be promoted.
"What are you kidding? You get them back, we don't need any propaganda outsourcing. Liu Xuan said with some annoyance.
I'm also a little dissatisfied with the assistant.,Anything unreliable is reported on the pole.,Am I idle?
"But......" The assistant was also a little aggrieved when he saw that the boss was angry.
"But what? Don't do it yet!" Liu Xuan was already a little irritable because of the matter of "Fengshen War", so he naturally didn't give the assistant a good look.
"But Mr. Liu, that's a gold advertisement...... the assistant gritted his teeth and reminded at the risk of being angrily reprimanded by the boss.
"Hmm, what's wrong with the gold advertisement? Hey, the gold advertisement? Is it the gold advertisement of the Dianjin Group?" Liu Xuan also reacted.
"Yes, it's because it's a gold advertisement for Ye Qiu, the holy hand of gold, so I didn't immediately refuse their ......" The assistant was also relieved when he saw Liu Xuan's reaction.
"Well, I see, you go down first. Liu Xuan said with a pleasant face.
"Yes!" the assistant patted his chest with trepidation as he turned to leave.
Liu Xuan frowned and thought for a long time, but finally picked up his mobile phone and dialed a call.
"Mr. Ye, I, Xuanhuang's old Liu, Mr. Ye, there is a thing, a gold advertisement...... "Although Liu Xuan and Ye Qiu are not very familiar, the two have not dealt with each other, and they can be regarded as a little friendship.
"What? It turned out that Mr. Ye arranged it, okay, our Xuanhuang must cooperate, well, Mr. Ye, you are out, I still have something to worry about. Liu Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, to be honest, Liu Xuan was still a little confused, he couldn't understand why Ye Qiu was suddenly interested in "The Legend of the Gods", there must be some purpose in it that he didn't know, however, Ye Qiu's name of the golden holy hand is definitely worthy of the name, so no matter what Ye Qiu's purpose is, anyway, this time the gold advertising is only a symbolic fee, and what interests Liu Xuan the most is that this time, Ye Qiu actually wants to take action in person.
So does it mean that "The Legend of the Gods" still has to be saved?
β¦β¦
When Liu Xuan was still wondering what method Ye Qiu would use, a series of voices touting the special effects of "Fengshen War" began to appear on the Internet.
Although the plot of "The Legend of the Gods" is very bad, the special effects can be called the pinnacle of Chinese film special effects.
Originally, "The Legend of the Gods" had mixed reputations, except for the special effects, the others were complained about.
However, when touting the special effects of "The Gods of War" as the pinnacle of Chinese films, it is a bit too much, especially while touting it, it also pointed out that the special effects company of "The Gods of War" is responsible for the famous Hollywood top special effects company Light and Magic.
It's just that after watching the excitement for a long time, some netizens began to raise doubts, since the special effects of the film "Fengshen War" are so awesome, so the box office is so scummy?
So, someone began to answer, that's because the plot is rotten, and the special effects are useless.
Soon, however, another voice appeared.
"Just the defective special effects of "The Legend of the Gods", and the peak of the special effects of Chinese movies? If this is really the case, it is really the sadness of Chinese movies!"
"Yes, just because I saw the so-called pinnacle of Chinese movie special effects, I bought a ticket to watch it, and the result, hehe!"
"Hehe, although I am not a professional, I can also see that this special effect, a special hair special effect is made like a toy, and it is the peak of special effects in Chinese movies?"
"But "Gods of War" cost 20 million US dollars, and it invited special effects produced by Hollywood's top special effects company Light Magic, and the strength of Light and Magic is top-notch, right?"
"Upstairs naΓ―ve, I'm mixed in a film special effects company, for the popularization of upstairs, the so-called domestic so-called looking for the world's top special effects company, magic tower, light magic, NG special effects, in fact, it's just hanging their brand, in fact, it's completely outsourced to other special effects companies including island countries, stick countries, and Huaguo. Magic Tower, Light and Magic, they are indeed top-notch special effects companies, but it doesn't mean that the special effects they made for "Gods of War" are top-notch. β
To be honest, not only "The Legend of the Gods" actually includes the special effects of most other domestic special effects films, especially the special effects produced by foreign Hollywood film special effects companies, basically, they are not complete, and the completeness of the special effects of "The Gods of War" does not even exceed 70%. β
"I've wanted to say it for a long time, I was preempted by what I said upstairs, the special effects of "Fengshen War", there are several parts, which are obviously made with the effects of commercial software, in fact, this is also the norm for domestic films to spend money to find the so-called top special effects companies to produce special effects, the so-called no comparison, no harm, don't say anything, there is a video and the truth, who watches who knows. β
There are also two video clips posted by this netizen later, one is a smoke special effect in "The Legend of the Gods", and the other is a smoke special effect from a Hollywood movie.
And the special effects production company of this Hollywood movie is the same as "The Legend of the Gods".
Again, there is no harm without contrast.
Compare the two movies, and judge the advantages and disadvantages.
