Chapter 139: Technical Barriers (1st Update)

Hu Yifei is preparing for the new film in an orderly manner, and the overseas income of "Crazy Stone" has also arrived one after another. Hong Kong broke 13.5 million, I don't know if it is enough to get into the TOP10 of the year. Taiwan says that it is selling very well, but it is relative to mainland films. In fact, it is only NT$15 million, with a total box office of 5 million RMB, and various expenses are deducted. One point of the cake, there is not much to the family film account. The big part of the real money is still in South Korea. In the end, the box office reached 1.2 million people, setting a box office record for mainland films in South Korea, and "Family Pictures" can share at least 3.5 million US dollars in net revenue, that is, more than 29 million yuan.

There are also some places in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, which add up to a lot, which is not bad.

If you count the outstanding income of "Full House of Romance" exceeding 100 million, the company suddenly has nearly 200 million funds on its books.

You must know that now is not the time to settle the general account at the end of the year, Liu Qingqing's clothing brand is still expanding, and the profit is certain. That's a lot of money, and it's a shame to just put it in the bank. Han Mi pondered building a new building, overthrowing the old building in place and buying a new home for the company.

was rejected by Hu Yifei!

He still has a lot of money to keep, and there are at least three plans waiting to be implemented, which are not enough.

The first plan was to take out part of the funds first, and open the Internet company he had planned by the way, and the address was located downstairs from the company.

IT talent is asked by headhunters to continue to search, and if possible, it is not hesitated to go to Silicon Valley in the United States to recruit top talents. But basic programmers can get to work early. Hu Yifei doesn't know how to code programs, but he can arrange the website framework and put forward the direction of research and development. He gave a clear website concept, a new type of SNS social networking site, which was studied by more than a dozen elite programmers. He has registered several international websites, and as for the name of the website, it is called Facebook.

Another plan, he had already had a heart, but he was even more powerless.

Hu Yifei knows very well in his heart that future movies will be the world of special effects.

A company that doesn't have its own high-end special effects technology, no matter how much money it makes, it's always a small fight. But if you want to get a high-end animation special effects company by yourself, the investment is not as simple as 120 million. Hollywood's technical barriers are so tight that even China knows how to guard against Hollywood blockbusters from grabbing the mainland market, and how can shrewd Americans guard against outsiders? There are not many countries in the world that want Hollywood's special effects technology, but this is their magic weapon to seize the global market, how can it be leaked.

It's hard to get the most advanced technology. Unless you pay for it yourself, go and ask the Americans to do it for you. In that case, the money will naturally flow into the Americans' wallets, and the situation will undoubtedly be the same as drinking to quench their thirst.

And the reason why I want to have my own special effects company is also for the sake of the third plan.

In the era of surging blockbusters, how can Hu Yifei be willing to always make small-budget comedies. When the time comes, he's going to make a big deal.

……

Of course, it's too early to think about that.

Hu Yifei's new film, in terms of plot, is actually very simple, the police chief who is so happy is going to conduct an actual combat exercise of robbing a bank, and the policeman who was selected to play the kidnapper is a tendon like Qiu Ju, everyone regards this exercise as a game, and he is the only one who is particularly involved, as if the director will not shout "Cut" and resolutely not play Yin Tianqiu. As a result, the exercise, which was supposed to go through the motions and could be easily ended, slowly lost control under his insistence......

This slightly absurd sense of loss of control makes people feel more intimate when they watch it, and they even can't help but think of the Coen brothers' "Ice Storm", "True Love and False Love", and "Old Woman Killer". Unlike the unobtrusive humor of the Coen brothers. The original title of the film was "Live Recklessly", if you only read the title, you must not have much desire to watch it. That's to blame for their poor translation. Even if it is accurate to summarize the character of the protagonist. There is a reason why it is not good, there is no popular element that does not seduce the eyes of the public who are overwhelmed by information.

In fact, even if the film is not in language, it can't hide an excellent comedy production with a Douban score of 8.2.

Similar to "Crazy Stone" and "My Name is Liu Yuejin", they are all small production stories, there are not many characters, and there are not so many colorful superfluous. The difference is that the first two play a set of serial games, and "Live Spontaneously" seems to be a multiple-choice question, with a number of options at each intersection, and go all the way back to the starting point.

In addition, it is said that it is simple because it does not have many scenes, so simple as a stage play, and the main scenes are inside and outside the bank.

Hu Yifei adapted it, of course, he would add a lot of private information.

Many funny episodes have to be sinicized. Although it is not subtle, it is also more direct and effective. If it can surpass its predecessor, it will be as hilarious as "Crazy Stone".

Of course, the fact that Koreans dared to make fun of their own government in the original work is also one of the foundations of how good this movie is. In front of a paranoid cop who plays the kidnapper, the police and the S.W.A.T of the entire city are helpless. Who is more ridiculous than whom? The little policeman with chicken feathers as an arrow, or the state apparatus that can only talk on paper?

This is the essence of the movie, even if there may be some obstacles during the review, it will not make Hu Yifei change his original intention.

Someone once commented on Chinese films like this, saying that Chinese films compare with foreign films, not to mention Hollywood, which is more of a small country than South Korea, right? You can't tell the truth at the most basic, and what you shoot is also in the air.

Guo Donglin and Fan Wei received the script, but there was nothing to hesitate. At this time in previous years, almost all of them were preparing for the Spring Festival Gala. The Spring Festival Gala is so boiling, it makes you worry and uneasy a few months in advance. Fortunately, these two are almost nail households in the Spring Festival Gala, and although they are also preparing now, they are not so urgent.

Comedians like them usually either continue sketches or act in dramas, Fan Wei is okay, he often has the opportunity to act, and Guo Donglin has less. There is a good movie looking for you to act, why are you hesitating. I readily agreed.

On November 1, Hu Yifei's second film "Bank Robbery Exercise" has arrived in Sanya with all the staff doing the final preparations.

These days, Hu Yifei has had enough news that he rejected Jiang Zhiqiang's proposal and did not hold a press conference to start the film. It's not that he thinks it's unnecessary, firstly, because the time is pressing, and secondly, he thinks that no matter how good the publicity is until the filming of the film is completed, it will not be able to retain popularity.

The publicity during this period of time only needs to leave an impression in the minds of the audience. It is better to start working again when the movie is halfway through shooting or when it is about to be completed, which will not increase the psychological pressure of the actors, and there can also be a lot of real material to say.
