Chapter 296 Commercialization of Films

For movies, Zhang Yi is indeed a wild man.

The script was written according to the plot that I had seen on the wall back then, and then according to the plot that I remembered like a reflection in my mind.

And filming movies is just learned from Hong Jinbao and others filming "Five Lucky Stars". Then, from easy to difficult, the works of the previous life were filmed, all based on the original as a reference, and the experience accumulated bit by bit.

is that although most of the scripts of "Boxer" are conceived and written by Zhang Yi himself, rather than plagiarizing the original version, it is also inseparable from the influence of the original version. If it weren't for the fact that he was reborn through time travel and watched countless movies in his previous life, even if Zhang Yi had an unforgettable memory, saw countless books, and had profound knowledge, it would be impossible to make such great achievements in movies.

Don't talk about the Oscars, I'm afraid it's already good if the movie doesn't lose money. How could it be that a movie was such a big hit. Moreover, many of Zhang Yi's movies are big hits, not only because of the movie itself, but also because of some other factors.

Just like the reason why "Boxer" was able to overwhelm the box office of "People and Ghosts", it was entirely because of Zhang Yi because of the hijacking case, and the news that the Guoshu Building killed the first master of Rì Ben, Yi Goods.

Imagine that in the previous life, someone could put a low-cost bad movie on the leg of nearly 100 million box office by virtue of his own popularity, it can be seen that both the director and the actor still have this great effect on the box office of the movie.

And now, Zhang Yi's movies are big box office hits, and his own popularity accounts for a large part.

Zhang Yi is good at writing, but not good at speaking. The ability to fool people is not great. When he went to the film academy to give a lecture, Zhang Yi was inevitably a little weak-hearted, but he was more embarrassed.

He never felt like he was a big fan of movies.

He knows his own business, but others don't. Who would have thought that Zhang Yi was reborn from the 21st century.

In the eyes of others, Zhang Yi is now a legend. In the field of film, he is definitely the first Chinese.

Hong Kong films have gradually opened up the international market and impacted Europe and the United States. Zhang Yi is definitely indispensable. Moreover, he is definitely the most appealing and influential Chinese filmmaker in the world.

"To be honest, I don't know what to say! What they know, I don't necessarily understand. What they don't understand, I don't necessarily understand. Zhang Yi said with a wry smile.

"Mr. Zhang can just talk about it. For example, Mr. Zhang's views on movies and his understanding of movies. Dean Li added, "Mr. Zhang went from Hong Kong to Hollywood, and has cooperated with the mainland to shoot movies, so I believe he knows a lot about the films in the three places. I believe that those students will be of infinite use. ”

"Just talk about it?" Zhang Yi looked at Dean Li and then asked.

"Of course." Dean Li immediately said.

"Okay then." Zhang Yi nodded, and then said to Dean Li, "Do you think the time is arranged?" ”

"Then when is Mr. Zhang free?" Dean Li hurriedly said.

"Otherwise, tomorrow. I guess the day after tomorrow is a trip to the West. Ann, and then go straight back to Hong Kong. Zhang Yi then said.

"Then tomorrow!" Dean Li then said.

The next day, Zhang Yi, as usual, got up early in the morning to practice boxing. Then he pointed out Luo Shukai's boxing skills.

Zhang Yi has now entered Danjin, and on top of his boxing attainments, he is naturally deeper, and there is naturally no problem in guiding Luo Shukai.

I have practiced hard for ten years, and I am not as good as a famous teacher. Luo Shukai has accepted Zhang Yi's guidance in the past two days, but his boxing skills have progressed very quickly, and even many Sun Men will come to Zhang Yi for advice. Of course, Zhang Yi will not hide his secrets.

"Master." Luo Shukai walked up to Zhang Yi, and stopped talking.

"If you have something to say, just say it. When did it become squirming? Zhang Yi glanced at Luo Shukai and then said.

"Can I bring someone with me when I go back to Hong Kong this time?" Luo Shukai took a deep breath and then asked.

"The girl I saw that day?" Zhang Yi smiled and asked.

Luo Shukai smiled a little embarrassedly, and then nodded.

"Does her family agree?" Zhang Yi then asked.

"Naturally agree." Luo Shukai hurriedly said.

"That's it." Zhang Yi nodded, and then said, "Before I go back to Hong Kong, I will go to the west. Ann, are you with us, or are you going back on your own? ”

"Let's go back together." Luo Shukai said immediately, then glanced at Zhang Yi, and asked curiously, "Master, have you seen the chief?" ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Yi nodded, and then asked curiously, "Why are you asking this?" ”

"Just curious." Luo Shukai then said.

"Boss, the people from the film school are here." Lin Xiao came in and said immediately.

"Hmm. Let them wait for a while, and I'll change into my clothes and go over. Zhang Yi nodded, and then said.

Film Academy, there are still a lot of bullish characters in later generations. Of course, Niu Cha is only in the entertainment industry.

When I came to the film school, a large welcome banner at the entrance of the school was very conspicuous.

"International director Zhang Yi."

Zhang Yi looked at it and smiled, and said to Zhang Yi beside him, "When did I become an international director?" I don't know it myself. ”

When Zhang Yi heard this, he knew that Zhang Yi was making fun of himself, smiled, and said, "When did Mr. Zhang care about this?" Whether Mr. Zhang is going to visit the students first, or go directly to the auditorium. ”

"There's still time, let's go around first." Zhang Yi looked around, then looked at Zhang Yi again, and said, "Are there any new film arrangements recently?" ”

"Nope. Recently, I have been training in film trainees. Zhang Yi immediately said.

"There is no interest in being a cinematographer for the next film. However, the movie will be launched in February next year. In addition to filming in a studio, the location was set on a small island in the Maldives. It may or may not take months. Zhang Yi looked at Zhang Yi and said.

"It's an honor to be the cinematographer of Mr. Zhang's films." When Zhang Yimou heard this, he said with some excitement, "I don't know what Mr. Zhang's movie is?" ”

"Jurassic Park" has been hyped in Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, and even Europe and the United States, but few people in the mainland know about it. Zhang Yi didn't know, and it was reasonable.

"Jurassic Park!" Zhang Yi smiled and said.

"Jurassic Park!" When Zhang Yiyi heard this, he was suddenly a little surprised. He has heard of this movie to some extent, and he has also read the novel adapted from the script, which has a profound impact on it.

When Zhang Yi came to the auditorium of the film academy, it was densely packed with people. Dean Li made a brief speech on it, and then handed the podium to Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi walked up to the podium with a smile, although there were many people in the entire auditorium, Zhang Yi was also a person who had seen strong winds and waves, and he would not be nervous because of this. There are some people who are not young sitting in the front, looking at their appearance, they should be the leaders and teachers of the academy, as for the academy in the back, there are even two people sitting on top of a seat, and one is squeezed next to them.

The overwhelming applause rang out, Zhang Yi waved his hand, and after the scene calmed down, he immediately said with a smile: "Hello everyone, my name is Zhang Yi, and I am here in Hong Kong." Although I have been making movies for several years, I am not very old. Invited by Dean Li, I came to the students to talk about movies, and I was inevitably a little apprehensive, mainly because I was afraid of misleading people's children. ”

"I haven't studied film systematically, and compared to other professionals, it's purely amateurish. Therefore, what professional knowledge to tell you is purely a class axe. Zhang Yi looked down and said with a smile, "I have made a lot of movies, and the only thing I am proud of is that I have not lost money in that movie." ”

"You may think that movies are sacred, and they are tied to money, and they are vulgar. But you have to admit that without money, you can't make movies! Moreover, the film itself has some 'xìng quality' of economic activity such as 'commerce', which is the so-called 'commercial xìng'! Today, let's talk about the commercialization of films. ”

"In the beginning, movies were just selling with 'novelty' like juggling, but relying only on the sense of 'novelty' like juggling magic, movies are not enough to get to where they are today. In fact, there is a world of difference between the commercial xìng of movies and the general merchandise. If there is no difference, then the world only needs the continuous reproduction of a movie, because general commodities require production to be unified and modeled. Cinema, also influenced by art, he needs to be original, aesthetic, and at the same time have an emotional transmission"
