ps: These two chapters are a big brain-opener, right? If it's cool, kneel and beg to make up a full order, and if it's not good, you can also reward a first order, if you add more, you will fight four more tomorrow!

"Monster Hunt? Catch youkai? ”

Liu Shiyuan shook his head,

"I can barely think so, but that's not the theme of the movie. The background design of this film is very grand, a few years ago, the demons coexisted, and then a big war broke out, the human race won, the demon race was forced into the mountains, and then there was a civil strife, the new demon king killed the old demon king, and then began to hunt down the little demon king who was not yet born, and the story of the movie began from here......"

is worthy of being a well-known director, and with a few words of Balabala, Li Yi figured out the general plot. He frowned slightly, looking at this plot, it seems a little thin.

"Hehe, in fact, as a 90-minute, 120-minute movie at most, if you incorporate too many elements at one time and choose too complex plots, it will greatly affect the audience's viewing experience. In this drama, our setting is the collision of oriental magic and Hollywood animation, which is definitely a major innovation in the domestic film industry! Think about it, all the stupid and cute monsters, the plot is a little heavy and connotative in the lighthearted......"

When it comes to his movies, Liu Shiyuan is simply gushing like the water of the Yellow River, and he didn't give Li Yi a chance to interject at all. After talking for almost ten minutes, he stopped and took a sip of water, and then stared at Li Yi,

"Have you watched "Thai Embarrassment"? The king of domestic film box office! But if this film can be made according to my vision, there is definitely hope of breaking that record! No, not hopefully, but definitely! ”

Li Yi was taken aback, I card, "Thai Embarrassment" is a big movie with a box office of nearly 1.3 billion, he has also seen it in the theater, it is indeed good-looking. In his cognition, at least within five years, there should be no such a cool film, even if it is a sequel!

However, now someone actually told him that if he wanted to make a movie that surpassed "Thai Embarrassment", his first feeling was impossible.

Thinking of the things Liu Shiyuan said just now, he was even more suspicious, just based on your patchwork plot? Do you still want to break the record? Don't talk about it, although I don't know how to make movies, I'm not stupid, I can watch it......

Although he was a little dissatisfied with Liu Shiyuan's advocacy, this was not Li Yi's business, so there was no need for him to express any opinions, just listen.

"Haha, Brother Li, I know you don't believe it, not only you don't believe it, but many professionals in the industry don't believe it. But I'm confident that once the funding problem is solved, I will definitely give everyone a big surprise! ”

Li Yi smiled fakely,

"Okay, then I'll wait for you to shoot it, I will definitely go into the theater to cheer you up, if it looks good, I will charter it to give you the box office when the time comes!"

"Hahaha, it's a deal! Brother Li, you're ready to dig into your pocket! ”

Li Yi said that this is not because he has too much money to burn, this guy has taken a fancy to other people's paintings. And Liu Shiyuanken accompanied him, a stranger who didn't understand movies, who met for the first time, to chat for so long and so deeply, and it also had his own purpose.

As he just said, many industry insiders are not optimistic about the prospects of this movie, and even the most supportive die-hards do not think that he can break the record of "Thai Embarrassment".

In recent years, the domestic film market has developed rapidly, and domestic films have also produced several classic films, setting a lot of super high box office, and have initially shown the momentum of being able to compete with Hollywood blockbusters.

However, the industry generally believes that the box office of hundreds of millions is easy to manage, but it is almost impossible to break the record of "Thai Embarrassment"! Because that not only needs a high-quality film, but also timing, and luck.

And the movie "Monster Hunt", let's not talk about anything else, but the initial budget that Liu Shiyuan and producer Lao Jin came up with is prohibitive, 250 million! The investment amount is as high as 250 million, which is still the preliminary budget!

What is this concept?

According to the current box office accounting rules commonly used in China, after deducting 5% of the special film funds and 3.3% of the business tax, the producer's share generally only accounts for 40% of the total box office of the film.

This means that a movie with an investment of 250 million must have a total box office of at least 650 million to ensure that it does not lose money. And what is this concept?

A box office that is enough to break into the top ten of the total ranking of domestic films over the years is actually just its capital line!

Who can be so confident in a movie that hasn't started filming yet, and the shelves haven't been fully built? I'm afraid that its main creators are not too determined, right?

Since this is the case, it is natural that the investment in this film will be blocked, after all, everyone makes movies to make money, not to make money like those movies that shoulder the task of politics, in order to lose money and make money.

Therefore, even if Lao Jin, who made Zuò, took out all his family resources, plus some friends really couldn't wipe off his face, the initial investment gap still reached 100 million!

For this 100 million, during this time, Liu Shiyuan didn't know how many meals he had drunk, but everyone was not stupid, so there was almost no progress.

At this time, someone came up with an idea for him and Lao Jin, a small-scale crowdfunding, that is, a small-scale fund-raising to make a movie.

Speaking of crowdfunding movies, it's not that no one is operating, but the investment amount of those movies is generally relatively low, and judging from the current situation, it is not optimistic, the success rate is far less than 50%, not to mention, the box office after the release is also a mess.

But there was no way, Liu Shiyuan still decided to try.

Old Man Liu knew the predicament his son was encountering, and he also knew his plans, so he set his sights on Li Yi.

People who can buy villas worth more than 30 million yuan, and can raise bluegrass worth more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan so casually, shouldn't they care too much about spending millions to invest in a movie?

Besides, even if you care, but it's man-made, if you don't try, how can you know? Although there are more than 100 million, it is still easy to collect millions of millions!

What's more, as a rich young man, how can he not be curious about such a trendy thing as raising funds to make movies? What's more, there is also a popular term at the moment, crowdfunding!

If you're lucky, it's possible to set out tens of millions at once!

Moreover, Li Yi's head is indeed relatively large, and it looks like a wronged head!

Therefore, the painting he showed Li Yi just now was not brought back by Liu Shiyuan last night, and he had already asked someone to verify the authenticity.

Otherwise, do you think that a young appraiser who can't even determine the authenticity of Gu Jingzhou's purple clay pot with such obvious knowledge will invite him to his home to authenticate an ancient painting worth tens of millions when he is full and has nothing to do?

Li Yi didn't know that ******** was calculating him, he was still secretly congratulating on his luck, and he was still wondering if it was possible to get his hands on this painting.

It's just that he can't be sure whose painting it is, so he can't be sure if it's worth that much money, and since he was just getting started, it's not a good idea to buy a painting, so he decided to wait and see.

After chatting a few more words, Liu Shiyuan went out for something, and Li Yi also stood up and prepared to leave.

"Old Liu, although this painting is an imitation, it still has a very high value, if you don't mind, wait for me to contact my master first, if she has time, let's go over and let her help you see it?"

"That's a good feeling! When can I go, you come to me directly, I'm an old man and I don't have anything to do, I have a lot of time! ”

As soon as Li Yi walked out of the gate of Liu's house, he quickly ran back to his house, and he wanted to quickly check the information to see whose work the painting was.

In fact, he already had a key suspicion in his heart, but he was not too sure, and he was a little unbelievable, because with the status of the rivers and lakes at that time, how could he impersonate Ding Yi to sell fake paintings?

That's right, the candidate he suspects is the famous Chinese painter in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, the key figure in the transition period of the development of modern and modern Chinese painting and calligraphy, one of the "Four Masters of the Shanghai School in the Late Qing Dynasty" with Ren Bonian, Pu Hua and Xugu, and the grandmaster Wu Changshuo Wu Da, known as the "poetry, calligraphy, painting, and printing" four uniques!

Compared with other grandmasters, Wu Changshuo's art has extremely unique characteristics, he has a unique way, the courage to innovate, calligraphy into the painting, calligraphy, seal carving brush, knife movement, chapter and so on into the painting, thus forming his unique style of painting rich in gold and stone.

Wu Changshuo is the best at freehand flowers, but he was carefully instructed by Ren Yi and Ren Bonian in the early days of learning to paint, and Ren Bonian's figure painting skills are very high, so although Wu Changshuo has always used splashed ink flowers and vegetables and fruits as the main theme, he is also a fine figure landscape.

So technically speaking, there shouldn't be much of a problem with him imitating this painting, but the biggest question now is, how could he be Ding Yi!

Li Yi first found some calligraphy and painting collections he had collected, read some of Wu Changshuo's works, and then looked for some information on the Internet, and finally determined, yes, this is Wu Changshuo's work!

Wu Changshuo's works, according to the current auction price of the auction house, is about 900,000 yuan per square foot, but the actual market price is around 600,000 yuan, and the transaction price in the industry is even lower, only about 400,000 yuan.

If calculated according to this price, is the price of a work with a width of two meters and a length of two meters and seven meters exactly 18 million?

After getting this done, Li Yi picked up the phone and called Zhong Haoqing, he wanted to take Liu Lao to let the master identify again, and he just happened to solve the mystery of Ding Yi by the way.

Zhong Haoqing was not at home at this time, she and Hu Jinquan were both picking up people at the airport, and it was none other than Li Yi's other master, Hu Zhiyuan.

When Li Yi called, Hu Zhiyuan happened to walk out of the pick-up port, so Zhong Haoqing casually said that he would take someone directly to his home at night and hung up the phone.

"Lao Hu, you are not authentic in this matter, your own apprentice, you actually threw your hand at the two of us and ignored it, where are you singing?"

"Which one am I singing? With the two of you here, wouldn't it be extra for me to worry about it? What's the matter, if you have to come to Yanjing, you won't say anything on the phone, that kid is causing trouble for you? ”

Zhong Haoqing and Hu Jinquan nodded solemnly, that's right, this kid provoked us. Trouble! For mobile phone users, please visit wènhttp://mnet
