If you want to find the best, the most right!

With this in mind, Su Li soon began to continue looking for a film crew for Inception. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Director of photography Su Li found Christopher Doyle, a foreigner who also had many award-winning works that year, and many of his works that he could get his hands on.

In the entertainment industry, the importance of fame was immediately highlighted, and after Su Li personally found Du Kefeng, it only took him more than ten minutes to make him recognize himself, and at the same time promised to join the team of "Inception" and make a good movie with Su Li.

followed by the specific cameraman, with Zhang Yimou's help and acquiescence, he moved Zhao Xiaoding into the crew.

Zhao Xiaoding's photography level is needless to say, the title of gold medal photographer is by no means untargeted, and he has many works, including the promotional film "Forbidden City" during the Olympics, which also received a huge response at that time. He can be regarded as the royal cameraman of Lao Mouzi, and now he still has some time, so he will dedicate it all to "Inception".

In this way, with a few teams led by themselves, as well as some young people sent by Li Guang Entertainment Company to study, the camera team was set up in this way.

"Inception" is very demanding for the cinematographer, and many places need to shoot the desired effect, which requires a close to perfect camera team to work together.

The makeup artist team, Su Li has found Mao Geping.

Mao Geping was still hesitant at the beginning, after all, Su Li gave him the impression that he was still a little young, but when he thought of the power of his "Source Code", he was also a little excited.

After that, Su Li told him some things about "Inception", and directly threw a bombshell of 400 million investment to him, and then he fell.

A young man, a 21-year-old young man, has the courage to spend 400 million yuan on a movie, what kind of feelings is this? What kind of courage is this? When he thought of this, even Mao Geping himself couldn't help but be a little excited.

Therefore, he finally agreed to Su Li's invitation and joined the crew of "Inception".

In the artist team, Su Li found a lot of top talents through the relationship between Zhang Yimou, Lu Zhongfei and his company, including talents like Ye Jintian.

Tim Yip has also debuted for many years, and has been working hard since the era of "The True Color of Heroes", and now many things are quite mature, and he can also lead this team well.

The music team Su Li has also been carefully selected, anyway, it is necessary to use the best and most suitable people to do these things! Since this movie has planned to invest so many billion, it is natural to have the courage to invest in blockbusters!

Now in addition to the funds invested in domestic films, TV series, variety shows, special effects and other aspects, the company still has more than 500 million funds, if you count the 300 million earned from North America, the money is still very rich.

Su Li even made a plan - there is no cap on the investment in "Inception"!

This plan is indeed heroic, and only in this way can we truly create a film with the largest investment in the history of Chinese films, and can we truly show the indomitable spirit!

After adding Lin Di'an, the final puzzle action director, and Park Joo-cheon, a gunplay director found from South Korea, the film's art, camera, action direction, recording, makeup and other teams have been built.

The remuneration of these people alone has also cost millions, which naturally does not count the consumption they need to use.

Therefore, the investment in "Inception" has become larger and larger, and I don't know how much more than "Source Code".

The construction of the staff has taken shape, and the next step is to find the actors.

After some searching, the tentative actor of the male protagonist's deceased wife is Fan Bingbing, the tentative actor of the dream builder is Yang Mi, the tycoon is a cameo by Huang Qiusheng, and the son of the tycoon is played by Wu Yanzu. The two main dream thieves are played by Chen Kun and Deng Chao. After some consideration, the character who was originally scheduled to be himself changed to a Chinese background, otherwise it might touch the nerves of the people and ZF at that time.

Therefore, for this role that was originally scheduled to be played by foreigners, Su Li also changed his candidate, changed his background to China, and also replaced the actor with a Chinese actor, the old drama bone Chen Daoming.

After such a change, many problems can be solved, and the key is whether he can agree to it.

It is not difficult to convince Fan Bingbing to join this play, anyway, she is now looking for a good movie and a good script. A few days ago, Su Li visited the class in "The Siege of October", and she also knew Fan Bingbing, and invited her in without using too many words.

Of course, the salary that Su Li has to pay for this is definitely not low.

The salary of millions is not too much compared to the investment of the entire "Inception", but it is also a large amount.

Next, Yang Mi's aspect is easier to solve, after all, she has a lot of relationships with Su Li, after all, she can be regarded as Su Li's popularity, and there is no reason for her company to embarrass Su Li because of this. It's just that the salary will be a lot of money, and her value is completely different from when she played "Source Code", and the salary she is given now can't be a million.

Wu Yanzu and Su Li have cooperated with him, and Su Li and him are also good friends, and this opportunity is even more important to him, so he agreed happily.

Chen Kun and Deng Chao also quickly agreed to Su Li's invitation. Chen Daoming was a little speechless, but after seeing the script, he immediately agreed.

So far, this movie has been a collection of stars, Su Li, Chen Daoming, Fan Bingbing, Yang Mi, Wu Yanzu, Chen Kun, Deng Chao, Huang Qiusheng...... Such a lineup is difficult to compare with even "October Siege". Su Li himself can already afford half of the country, not to mention big names like Chen Daoming and Fan Bingbing, super newcomers like Yang Mi, and Wu Yanzu, Chen Kun, and Deng Chao...... This lineup is indeed quite luxurious, and if you count the rest of the staff, this movie is enough to attract attention.

These are just the roles that Su Li has already decided, and there are some other places where he still has to use a luxurious star cast!

Pharmacist He has already found Huang Xiaoming, Su Li has watched his "Ip Man 2" and found that his acting skills in it are indeed passable, his own strength is outstanding, his popularity is not low, and he is fully qualified for this role.

In addition, there is the role of the protagonist's father-in-law, etc., Su Li has all selected some popular stars, which is definitely a luxury lineup.

―――――― preparation for the filming of "Inception", some rumors have been vaguely revealed to the outside, but after receiving this little rumor, most of the people who pay attention to the entertainment industry have fallen into a certain boiling state.

500 million investment! (so-called) a strong lineup from Su Li to Huang Xiaoming! Still a sci-fi genre...... This! It's a bit unbelievable.

In July, when Su Li's plan had just revealed the tip of the iceberg, almost everyone was mobilizing their emotions for this matter.

"500 million investment...... Su Li can't be crazy, right? "After hearing this news, many people feel that the world is really getting crazier and crazier.

Everyone knows that "Source Code" has brought considerable money to Li Guang Entertainment Company, and even made Su Li among the ranks of young billionaires, but this money is not so spent, 500 million investment, how much box office do you need to recover the cost?

The investment of 500 million yuan is already the largest investment in the history of Chinese films, but Su Li has only been in the entertainment industry for two years, and he is only 21 years old.

What the hell is he trying to do?

After hearing the news, the entire Chinese film industry instantly fell into a state of madness, and almost everyone was speculating about what Su Li was planning.

Even if he used "Source Code" to create a box office miracle, even if he made two movies and the box office of both of them was jaw-dropping, the investment of 500 million yuan is really too child's play. Everyone speculated that Su Li had really become hot-headed because of some previous achievements, and this hot-headed tendency was too obvious.

The investment of 500 million yuan, according to the sharing standard that China can currently achieve, they need more than 1 billion box office to recover the cost.

"Su Li is really hot-headed this time...... He probably didn't quite know what that meant. Many commentators have expressed such concerns about Su Li.

Now, even the most hardcore [Pear] has some doubts about Su Li, and they are now very eager to talk to Su Li, and then give Su Li a good advice, hoping that he can give up this idea.

"It's a shocking idea...... This is already the largest investment in the history of Chinese films, is it really necessary to gamble like this? "Although I still like Su Li very much, many [pears] have expressed a lot of concerns about Su Li.

The outside world is in a storm, and by the middle of July, many people know more and more about Inception.

First of all, they know that the protagonist is still Su Li, and at the same time, they also know some other actors of "Inception" who have revealed the tip of the iceberg.

Just the tip of the iceberg that has been exposed like this has already made everyone jaw-dropping.

"What kind of momentum is this?" Seeing the tip of the iceberg that is currently being revealed, many people feel a little powerless - what kind of thoughts does Su Li have? How could he have such a momentum of spending?

No one can understand Su Li, so everyone is quite looking forward to Su Li being able to explain this matter to everyone and reveal the whole story of his filming of "Inception".

It's just that Su Li has always avoided talking about this matter, and he has never said these things on his blog. So, everyone's hearts were mobilized. In fact, it is not that he deliberately wants to arouse everyone's appetite, but that he really doesn't have time.

Since July, Su Li has been busy preparing for "Inception", negotiating with people in various places, carefully setting up some scenes and props, and looking for the perfect lineup of "Inception".

On this day, Su Li was still at home, the tip of the pen scribbling across the paper, and after drawing for a long time, he finally raised his head from the paper.

Looking at the concept map drawn in his hand, he nodded in satisfaction.

Now, Su Li's painting skills are no longer what they used to be, his hand-drawing ability has the skills he got directly from the system, and there are also a lot of things that he grinds out little by little, which is far from the standard of a painter, but what he draws has been clearly understood, and it is clear at a glance when others see it.

He quickly handed over these pictures to Li Xian, and then began to discuss them with him.

"So far, some of the concept art I've drawn so far." Su Li pointed to the things on the paper and said to him: "It's not much different from the concept I told you before, it's mainly the superposition of space, where we can do everything we want without any constraints." ”

Li Xian nodded: "I already know this, the same as what I told you before...... With the level of special effects in our studio, it's not a difficult task to make this. It's just that the investment of funds may be high, and the difficulty and complexity will be beyond everyone's imagination. ”

Su Li said: "I naturally know this, but I have already said that I will not save too much money on this movie, and I will spend it where it should be spent, even if I directly invest 100 million in special effects." ”

Li Xian nodded in understanding, to be honest, although many of Su Li's things seem a bit arrogant to the outside world, in the eyes of these people, this is completely a kind of self-confidence and arrogance. Such arrogance is not something that an ordinary twenty-one-year-old young man can have.

Even this kind of arrogance is enough for the people below to worship him.

"The special effect of this space folding, as well as the special effect of walking from one plane to another vertical plane, may require more than 300 layers, and many designers need to be used...... Just such a shot will cost you a lot of your budget. Li Xian explained to Su Li: "And you need more than that...... There are still a lot of things that need to use special effects, and the whole movie is calculated, and it is very possible to have special effects of 100 million. ”

"I see." Su Li calculated a little, and he knew that this price really had to be spent.

Thanks to Su Li, the current Burning Shadow Special Effects Studio already has a world-leading level of special effects, which may sound a bit mysterious, but the fact is that - for 100 million special effects, this studio can make special effects that are even more powerful than the original "Inception"!

These are all things that Su Li took out of the system, and the Shadow Burning Effect is indeed the biggest beneficiary.

Su Li will not be too stingy in terms of budget for special effects, what he wants to create is a classic of Chinese commercial blockbusters! I even want to write a strong stroke in the history of world cinema!
