Chapter 422 Xianxia Movie Plan
readx;
"The problem of their acting experience and acting skills is not difficult to solve...... Su Li downplayed this matter: "This movie will not be filmed until 2013, to say the least...... There's still a year in between, which is enough time for me to train an honest man into a liar who lies and doesn't blink. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Are you an actor or a liar?" The person next to him glared at Su Li.
Su Li smiled and stopped talking.
In fact, there is a period during the official filming of "Zhu Xian", and within this period, he may shoot other movies. For example, a sports movie that will be filmed has been planned, "Do You Care When I Play Football". However, he is also likely to hand over this film to other directors, and he will not play the starring role.
The actor's question is long, you can think about it slowly, and now, there are many other issues that need to be prepared.
First of all, there is the problem of the set, Su Li plans to invest a huge amount of money on the set, vowing to restore a picturesque real Xianxia world after combining the powerful technology of the special effects of the burning shadow. This is more than a cut compared to "Painted Wall" or something, what he wants to build is a vast Xianxia world, and the scene will not be limited to one place.
In this way, it is conceivable that his investment is definitely not low, but with the experience of movies such as "The Country Breaks the Mountains and Rivers", it is not impossible for him to make this movie perfectly. And now after the high box office of "The Country Breaks the Mountains and Rivers", the company has indeed made a lot of money, and it is not impossible to use it to cope with the filming of a large-scale investment.
To shoot "Zhu Xian", it was actually the result of Su Li thinking about it for some time.
Before filming "The Country Breaks the Mountains and Rivers", he once said that he has two relatively large film plans, and these two film plans have completed one of "The Country Breaks the Mountains and Rivers", and the other is naturally this "Zhu Xian".
The novel "Zhu Xian" was popular all over the country back then, even if you haven't read it, you are familiar with it, and many people have a certain good impression of this fairy book.
Of course, the novel "Zhu Xian" has also been adapted into several games so far, but it has not been used in movies and TV series. You know, whether it is "Zhu Xian" or "The Stars Change", the two books have been clamoring to be adapted into film and television works for many years, but they are just talking about it. There are many reasons for this, including the problem of insufficient investment amount, and it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. This kind of movie will definitely cost a huge investment to shoot, and everyone is quite worried that this movie will not be able to recover the investment cost. You must know that the "Shu Mountain" filmed by Xu Laowei was so bad that the underwear was about to be lost, and everyone didn't dare to touch the mold of such a magical thing as the Sword Fairy. On the other hand, movies like "Zhu Xian" and "Star Change" are too classic, and everyone is afraid that the ones they make will not be able to meet the requirements of fans at all, and they will lose at the box office in the end. There are also some weird reasons, such as the action is not very easy to design, the special effects are not a clue, etc., in short, many people also think that making this kind of film and television work is a thankless task, and in the end, it will be over.
Su Li made this decision, the risk to take was quite large, and if he really started the plan this time, he even planned to go to the top!
In fact, this kind of courage can be done by him, and he has the confidence and strength to do it.
It's just that he hasn't revealed the news of his movie for the time being, and he has been slowly polishing the script by himself for so long.
"Zhu Xian" is a novel of 1.6 million words, and it takes too much energy and time to polish a novel of 1.6 million words into a screenplay.
However, Su Li also had the experience of adapting "The Country Breaks the Mountains and Rivers" into a movie, and now the adaptation of "Zhu Xian" is also very familiar, and many things also have some references.
He began his efforts to adapt "Zhu Xian" into a script when the novel "The Country Breaks the Mountains and Rivers" began to adapt the movie, and now, the script of the first version of "Zhu Xian" is estimated to come out in a few months.
If a novel like "Zhu Xian" wants to be adapted into a movie, the problems and troubles are really not small, and they are quite huge. The first problem is naturally the fan problem, the fan base of "Zhu Xian" is too huge, although several years have passed, there are still many people who are obsessed with this book. And now Su Li's popularity is too high...... If he just makes a random movie to fool the audience and fool the fans, then he still thinks that he has the hope of getting at least one billion box office, but what he wants to do is not that. He also doesn't want his popularity to be damaged because of such a movie, all in all, Su Li really wants to create a boutique aura on his body.
In order to create such a high-quality aura, he has to try his best to meet the imagination of fans for this novel, this Xianxia world has a variety of powerful magic weapons, as well as those incredible spells, as well as those characters with distinct surnames, and vivid plots...... All kinds of things, he has to try his best to meet the requirements of fans, although he can't shoot completely according to the novel, but at least most of it meets the imagination of fans.
Secondly, the movie "Zhu Xian" has a grand scene and gorgeous moves, the cultivator swings his sword to break the clouds, the sword destroys the dust, and the sky and the earth fall apart with every move, and the mountains and rivers are broken. And the world in which this novel takes place naturally has all kinds of wonderful wonders, either magnificent and magnificent, or picturesque, or magnificent. With the scenes and these powerful moves, the difficulty of filming this movie can be imagined, not to mention, Su Li is sure that he wants to make "Zhu Xian" into a three-dimensional movie, and under their powerful three-dimensional effect, the difficulty of shooting has been magnified again.
With these two restrictions, the filming requirements of "Zhu Xian" are higher, and they must comply with these shooting requirements as much as possible.
In addition, the movie "Zhu Xian" still has troubles in terms of public opinion pressure, since they want to make such a popular film, they have to do better. Another point is that in the movie "Zhu Xian", the effect that Su Li wants is not just to make this movie like everyone...... In fact, he is very ambitious! Quite big!
What he wants is that through the movie "Zhu Xian", even the word magic will be driven out of China directly! What he wants to do is to set off a cultural boom again in the world through "Zhu Xian", after this craze, everyone will find that in addition to the magical blockbusters such as "The Lord of the Rings" and "Harry Potter", there is also the legendary "Zhu Xian" in China. In Zhu Xian, everyone will slowly forget about those weird magicians and some warriors, but think of the person called the cultivator in the east.
Cultivators have the power to destroy the world, and when they raise their hands, the wind and clouds change and thunderstorms are terrifying, and each of them has incomparably strong power. When they fight, it's not as simple as those magical blockbusters, but the ashes of things like mountains. At the same time, they will also discover China's fascinating world of Xianxia, with wonderful and moving scenery and magical beasts...... This is his ambition, and he even wants people to become obsessed with Chinese fantasy movies, and of course, fairy movies should also be shot here by Su Li.
It's just that in this way, the filming of "Zhu Xian" will also face greater trouble, not to mention those headache financial problems, there are other problems that are bothering everyone. The problem of fighting movements alone is enough to give Su Li a headache, on the one hand, if you follow the fighting in the Xianxia world, it is likely to become a light wave confrontation. Of course, now that Su Li has such a powerful stereoscopic technology and special effects technology, even if he shoots light waves, people can't resist that kind of charm at all, but what he wants is a better effect.
The better effect is still short-handed, but in this way, there is not much difference between the world of Xianxia and traditional martial arts movies.
This is a big problem that bothers people, Su Li referred to a lot of movies and many books, and after watching "The Chronicle of War", he realized it, and finally decided to use the method of close melee combined with distant magic weapon beam bombardment to describe this movie. In close combat, the damage effect of the fight should be amplified infinitely at any cost, so that at least there is a visual effect. Besides, this powerful stereoscopic technology is surprising enough, and I believe they will be shocked when the time comes.
………… Su Li has slowly found solutions to these big problems, and they are also recorded in specific places waiting for specific implementation. Actually, the most important thing now is still the script...... The script is the soul of a movie, and he saw the powerful charm of the cultural storm brought by the good script of "The Country Breaks the Mountains and Rivers". So, he fully saw the important role of the plot.
Of course, the original work of "Zhu Xian" is quite attractive in terms of plot and has its own unique and powerful charm. The main thing that Su Li needs to do is to try to make these plots as suitable as possible in the form of a movie, and the selection of some plots is quite demanding, and Su Li must do his best.
He was going to spare a year or two to polish the script, and now his main requirement for his films is not speed, but quality.
In any case, he can't lose his reputation, he has to maintain his current reputation and situation.
The filming of this film is already an inevitable thing, and the honing of the script has become the most important thing for him now.
In order to make this script, Su Li estimated that he would have to retreat for a long time.
It was also the biggest vote in his recent plans.
So far, the script of "Zhu Xian" has also made some painful decisions after some heavy thinking by him, that is, he wants to divide "Zhu Xian" into three parts...... It can also be called a trilogy. He didn't mean to imitate "The Lord of the Rings", but he just found that a movie couldn't include this wonder.
Of course, in the case of the trilogy, as long as the first part is filmed well, the money will be made even more...... The influence will also expand, and then Liguang Entertainment Company will have a leading product and a cash cow that can make money.
