readx;?“ Starting today, Tsui Hark Film Studio is officially back at Golden Harvest Entertainment! "Tsui Hark Film Studio returned to Golden Harvest Entertainment, after the two parties signed an agreement, after the news was released by the media, this big news attracted the attention of the Chinese entertainment industry. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

With Tsui Hark's identity and status in the film industry, it is not comparable to the directors who have risen in the new years.

It can be said that if this kind of top director announces joining a listed film and television company in a few years, he can at least add billions or even tens of billions of market value to the film and television company.

Of course, because there is too much good news for Golden Harvest Entertainment in recent years, it is even too huge. As a result, Tsui Hark's return to Golden Harvest Entertainment is not very obvious to stimulate Golden Harvest's stock price and market value. However, in fact, Tsui Hark's joining will have a positive impact on Golden Harvest's performance in the next few years.

In the next few years, the scale of the film market will not grow, and the development space of top directors will become broader and broader.

In other words, a movie in the 90s with a budget of tens of millions of yuan is already a big production in the Chinese film industry.

But nowadays, a budget of tens of millions is nothing at all, and there are many blockbusters with a budget of hundreds of millions of yuan released almost every year.

At the same time, Hollywood has adopted advanced technology that the Chinese film industry could only envy in the past. It's not Hollywood's technology blockade of China, in fact, these film technologies do not belong to the category of technology blockade. It's just that for a long time, China's economy has been relatively small, and the film consumer market is not too big. Even if Hollywood's latest technology is in front of its Chinese film counterparts, the Chinese film industry cannot afford to use it.

But now it is gradually different, and the technology used by Hollywood, the Chinese film industry will soon follow suit. This is the development of the Chinese film market, which makes the budget of blockbusters more and more generous. Although there is still a gap with the budget of Hollywood's top blockbusters, it has narrowed to less than 10 times compared with the previous 100-fold gap. In the future, it will even approach or even exceed the budget level of Hollywood blockbusters.

That being said, not just any director can handle a blockbuster.

Some directors who have no experience in making blockbusters, how to spend money. It's hard to handle. All of a sudden, let a director with a budget of millions direct a blockbuster with a budget of hundreds of millions. The biggest possibility is to make a big bad movie. The director not only wasted money, but also spent money to shoot things because of lack of experience. It's not even as good as a small-budget movie.

In Tsui Hark Film Studio, it announced its return to Golden Harvest Entertainment and received a capital injection of 1 billion yuan. In the next few years, Tsui Hark Film Studio will make films, which can be said to be not bad for money. It is completely possible to invest in movies independently. Even if other capital is brought in for investment, it is only to win over allies and share some of the risks.

This kind of money is not bad and does not need to invest in external pulls, so that Tsui Hark also began to be full of confidence, and soon after, he said: "My next movie, the plan is a 3D movie!" The investment is mainly filmed with Tsui Hark's own funds of Film Studio, and in terms of technology, we will work with the parent company Golden Harvest Entertainment. and the world's best film technical teamwork ......"

……

Tsui Hark's next movie, Wang Qinian actually knew it for a long time - "Dragon Gate Flying Armor"! Although, some people feel that this is almost a remake of the previous Hong Kong New Wave martial arts classic "Dragon Gate Inn"!

In a sense, it is indeed a deep reference to "Dragon Gate Inn"! But this movie, in terms of technology and styling, is actually innovative. It's just that "Dragon Gate Inn" was too classic in the past, and people were still in a nostalgic mood and underestimated "Dragon Gate Flying Armor".

If there was no classic "Dragon Gate Inn" before. Then the evaluation of "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" may be higher. Of course, even due to the factors of "Dragon Gate Inn", many people feel that "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" is not innovative enough.

But Wang Qinian doesn't think so, in fact, "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" is also an experimental work. Tsui Hark's first attempt at shooting a 3D blockbuster. Naturally, it is prudent to avoid bad control and bad filming. It is precisely because of this caution that he chose "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", a new wave martial arts blockbuster that Tsui Hark is more familiar with.

For the new wave of martial arts films, "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" also has a certain significance.

started from Wang Qinian's "Four Famous Catches", and then to "Dragon Gate Flying Armor". One after another 3D martial arts blockbusters appeared. This also marks that the new wave martial arts films have technically kept up with the times and entered the 3D new wave martial arts era.

It is worth mentioning that part of the equipment used in the 3D version of Tsui Hark's "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" is the equipment used to take over Feng Xiaogang's "Tangshan Earthquake".

This set of 3D equipment was first used by Wang Qinian to shoot "Four Famous Catches 3D", and later, it was rented to Feng Xiaogang to shoot "Tangshan Earthquake".

After the filming of "Tangshan Earthquake" was completed, it is now for Tsui Hark to shoot "Dragon Gate Flying Armor". It can be said that this set of equipment can really be said to be used to the fullest, and the value of the equipment is used by three blockbusters. There was almost no waste at all.

……

On July 12, 2010, Wang Qinian ended his "southern tour" and took a plane to Tangshan and went to the local cinema.

"Hello, Mr. Wang!" Local officials from Tangshan were already present.

Feng Xiaogang naturally also handsome the "Tangshan Earthquake" film team attended.

In fact, this "Tangshan Earthquake" movie, not only Feng Xiaogang himself has the intention to shoot, but also bought the copyright of the novel "Aftershock" with the theme of the Tangshan earthquake many years ago.

What's more, the local government of Tangshan, in order to find a big director who is interested in this, cooperates with him to shoot a film theme related to the Tangshan earthquake, restoring the experience of the Tangshan earthquake in the 70s of that year, as well as the scenery of Tangshan before the earthquake.

This movie is not easy to shoot in terms of subject matter, disaster movie, the subject matter is difficult, but it is not an easy subject to sell.

After all, disaster movies must be heart-wrenching, painful, and a lot of human struggles.

Some of the best-selling elements such as love, happiness, drama, and action are not applicable in this kind of semi-documentary film.

It's just that many of the elements that sell well can't be used, and something that makes the audience feel worried. This is a great test of the director's ability.

A heart-wrenching disaster film with a documentary theme, which should not only serve a commemorative significance, but also make people cherish the hard-won ordinary life. At the same time, it is also a box office hit to recover costs.

Therefore, Wang Qinian admires Feng Xiaogang a little, and now he will never shoot this kind of theme. On the one hand, I know that it is thankless, and on the other hand, I also know that my cognition of human nature and society is too bookish. The experience is not enough, and it is difficult to shoot this effect.

"Director Xiaogang, you are a cow!" Wang Qinian said with a smile, "A movie like "Tangshan Earthquake", it is estimated that I will not dare to shoot until I am over 50 years old! ”

"You're so modest!" Feng Xiaogang said with a smile.

Of course, listening to Wang Qinian so much, he is also a little complacent. Even Wang Qinian said that he can't make this kind of movie now, how proud Feng Xiaogang is. (To be continued.) )
