The generosity of "Inception" soon caused a huge storm in China. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Not to mention the luxurious star lineup, even the huge investment of 500 million and 100 million US dollars in other places, it is enough to make people's eyes widen and put their attention on it.
Su Li still hasn't responded too much to the outside world, he is working with Li Xian and some of the styling design teams that he has set for this movie to design things in his imagination.
After two days of busy work, Su Li even went up to help draw a few pictures with 3dmax, but the effort was still worth it. So far, a lot of things have been moved from concept to paper.
The shape of the potion, the special effects of some scenes, and the character modeling have already had a reference, so that the preparation of the movie has also advanced a lot.
After making these things, a lot of things went faster.
After making these things in the capital, Su Li and several staff members went on field trips in Kunming and Shanghai, followed some layout drawings and their own concepts, and began to gradually use the scenery of this place on the ground.
In the midst of all this work, time gradually progressed, and soon it was August.
"Inception" is expected to start filming in mid-September 2009, and now the time has reached August, and Su Li and their preparations have been carried out a lot.
Su Li's words are monotonous like black and white lines, and he is running around every day to prepare for "Inception", and by August, he has made a lot of progress in many arrangements of "Inception", but he is also a little tired.
Su Li finally knew how many difficulties he would face after putting the hundreds of millions of yuan on paper into a state of hard work.
With such a large crew, almost every place needs itself, art modeling, set effects, prop design, etc., most of which require their own participation.
So, maybe one second Su Li was still talking to some people about the specific set, and the next second he received a phone call, and immediately put forward his own opinions on some of their model construction.
After the great success of "Source Code", Li Guang Entertainment Company purchased a lot of equipment, including a lot of film shooting equipment, including eight cameras alone, and a lot of other equipment, spending tens of millions of dollars before and after.
These things should be bought, every time they made a movie, Su Li used to go to some equipment companies to rent, now most of them have been able to be self-sufficient, and occasionally need to be rented, but that is very rare.
For the filming of "Inception", most of the equipment will be used by the company itself, and the company is growing and growing, and many things are getting better and better.
After the success of "Source Code", Su Li used about 80 million of the funds for hardware construction, first of all, the purchase of shooting equipment, and the other is the investment in the Burning Effect Studio, which now has the ability to directly produce a "Rise of the Ape Ball" with eye-catching special effects that are amazing.
After "Inception", the wizards purchased by Li Guang Entertainment may include a lot of 3D shooting things, with the progress of the times, 3D has become more and more a trend, and many of Su Li's future plans are also ready to use it in this novel and immersive way.
Now "Inception" has gone through a lot of preparations, and most of the scripts have been distributed to the actors, this time Su Li's script is limited to the actors in the crew and some staff who must use the script, and no one else is allowed to contact it, anyway, now Su Li doesn't want to be known too much about "Inception", and what the outside world knows about "Inception" is indeed a scaly claw, which is quite limited.
It was noon, and Su Li and a few other set designers were walking the streets of Kunming and starting to record data with them.
At about twelve o'clock in the afternoon, a few set designers went to eat, only Su Li was still busy, and he still had some things to finish. The place where they are now is the old Luosi Bay, and it just so happens that Luosi Bay is going to be relocated now, so they can have enough shooting space.
The traffic next to this place is still very dense, because of this, they have to be busy in many places.
When he was recording a set of data, he received a call from Yang Mi.
"Hey, are you still in Kunming?" Su Li hadn't heard her voice for many hours, and as soon as he answered the phone, a kind feeling seemed to make him feel as comfortable as if he had taken a hot bath. So he sat down on a dusty step, disregarding.
If someone secretly took pictures, it would definitely make people feel strange - Su Li actually sat directly on the dirty steps, without caring about his image.
"I'm still in Kunming, and I've just been discussing the set."
"Just know where you are, you're running around, it's expensive to call you." Yang Mi's tone softened for a while, and then said, "Have you eaten?" ”
"I haven't eaten yet." Su Li grabbed a branch with his right hand a little idlely, and drew circles on the ground irregularly: "Eat more in the afternoon." ”
"Go and eat, you're not allowed to skip dinner." Yang Mi's voice was slightly annoyed: "What can you do during this time of eating, go and eat...... I'll tell you a secret, I secretly ate an extra chicken wing when I was just eating......"
Su Li ignored her previous words, but was a little indignant: "What kind of broken company are you, you have to be sneaky to eat some meat." ”
"Don't blame them, everyone is like that, anyway, I've gotten used to it in the past few years, but you, hurry up and eat something." I'm going to hang up the phone, and I'll wait until you've had a good meal before you can call me. ”
"Ah, okay, okay...... Anyway, I'm almost ready for this little thing, so I'll talk to you while I'm going to eat......" Su Li was reluctant to put down the phone, casually patted the dust on his clothes with his right hand, and said: "I haven't heard your voice for dozens of hours, don't hang up so fast." ”
"Okay." The other end of the phone said: "Every day when I have a good meal, I want to see you right away, and touch your head by the way." ”
"You don't have anything to think about." Su Li was a little depressed: "What kind of bad habits are you, it's very annoying." ”
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, be nice, go to dinner......"
Su Li's face darkened when he heard this, he had an ominous premonition, and this premonition seemed to be slowly becoming a reality, that is, he felt that he was becoming more and more cute in front of Yang Mi.
Put away these annoying questions, Su Li did go to eat, to be honest, he was hungry, several other set designers went to eat by themselves, Su Li himself went to a shop next to him to open a small stove, and enjoyed it alone, this behavior of eating alone caused serious contempt on the other end of the phone.
In fact, Su Li is not a person who prepares movies to completely ignore everything around him, he has seen a lot of reports about his big investment in "Inception", and he has also seen the cynicism of many people, these news are every day, and they take up a lot of space.
Many people are accusing Su Li of being hot-headed, and there are many more radical people who think that he is completely throwing money into the water, Su Li is not a person who can be transcendent from everything, he will naturally be distressed, bored, and put a lot of pressure on himself because of this.
Today he suddenly said something to Yang Mi about this, and he was in a small box in a hotel at this time.
"In the past few days, have you seen people questioning me?" Su Li said helplessly: "Many people say it very hard, some people think that I am a fool who has money and has nowhere to spend, and now I want to throw money everywhere......"
There was a slight silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then said: "You have already decided, don't care what they say, since you have made up your mind, then everything they said should be put elsewhere." At least some people will always believe in you and support you. ”
"But at present, there is a lot of confusion and confusion everywhere...... It is true that the domestic film market has rarely had such a stimulating investment...... People really don't understand. ”
"Then you know the reason why they don't understand, so why be upset, I believe they will see the meaning of your film one day, it just takes a little time."
"Do you really believe that I can shoot well? What if I lose this time, if I don't make this "Inception", then I can at least have a lot of money left over to give our future a very good future, but if I lose, then I may even be saddled with debt for it, and I will even lose all my money. ”
"It doesn't matter if you really have no money, my sister will support you." She laughed for a moment, and then said, "Is it that there are too many funds that make you have some gains and losses?" You're not like that usual. ”
"Yes."
After receiving the phone, Su Li was slightly warm, after all, a very important and important person to him would not be as puzzled as everyone else about his own approach, and he could believe in himself without reservation. Although Yang Mi always gags and makes him unable to get serious and talk to her about some important things, her trust is fully revealed.
To be honest, Su Li really has some gains and losses, because at present, although he has a certain degree of certainty about many things, but when the pressure on his capital and body reaches a certain level, these things begin to disturb his thinking.
Some emotions of gain and loss also unconsciously rushed to his heart, and he always needed to find a place to talk about these things at these times.
Fortunately, he has such a person to talk to, someone who can make him feel heartfelt warmth and lightheartedness.
―――――― "Inception" did not reveal any other news in the weeks after it set off a huge wave, until Su Li and some other members of the crew held a press conference in the capital to officially reveal the specific filming schedule of "Inception"!
