Chapter 575: Unprecedented Generosity
At today's press conference, at the very beginning, I heard Luo Mo's words at least sounding very sincere, and everyone felt that this person was worth the trip.
Nearly $400 million in investment, which is really shocking.
"So, Director Luo, what is your so-called magic weapon?"
Hearing Luo Mo say that there is a magic weapon to make Western audiences like this film, it is natural to get to the bottom of it.
"This magic weapon...... It's about making movies with your heart. ”
Luo Mo said: "We have invested nearly $100 million in this movie so far, and there may be more than $200 million invested in it in the future...... I can guarantee that the cinematic effect will be very sophisticated, and I will impress everyone with excellent quality, this is my idea. ”
"What do you think sets your film apart from some of the previous Chinese films about Yue Fei?" The reporters then asked.
Luo Mo said: "I think I said this question myself a long time ago...... I think the biggest difference between my film and other film and television works about Yue Fei is the restoration of history in my film. Well, I don't want to film and talk about history, and I don't want to deliberately add or delete anything to history in order to achieve a certain effect...... After all, movies are made for people to see, and I don't have the right to mislead the audience about history. ”
"I've seen a lot of Hollywood movies and TV shows about history and war, "Rome", "Heavenly Dynasty", "King Arthur", "Three Hundred Warriors" and so on...... I found that they don't like to joke about history very much, and they will try to be as particular about history as possible, and every detail will be as exquisite as possible...... And I want to do such a thing in China, so that our films can be as elegant as possible, and every detail is well managed, so that everyone can feel the real historical atmosphere in the movie, and really feel that they have entered that era, and live and struggle together with the protagonists...... Faced with the various things of that era together. That's the kind of thing I'm doing, so this should be considered to be the difference between my "Yue Fei" and other film and television works. ”
"But if it's completely the same as history, don't you think that such a work is congenitally not as acceptable as other film and television works that joke about history?"
"The 5,000-year history of the Chinese nation is inherently magnificent, and I want to say something that I am very proud to say, that is, in the long history of our 5,000 years, even if we casually intercept so many decades of it, we don't even need to ...... What happens in just a few years, or even months, can become a huge epic. At the turn of the two Song Dynasty, the Liao Dynasty fell, and the history of the confrontation between the Song and Jin Dynasty was full of its own charm...... We don't have to make up too much at all, history alone is beautiful enough...... So I don't think there's a question of acceptance. ”
After Luo Mo said this, many people couldn't help but applaud.
Because everyone listened to it with enthusiasm.
Everyone is the Chinese nation, the descendants of Yan and Huang, and naturally there is a real awe of the rich history of the past, and now when I hear Luo Mo say it directly, I really feel that this is the case.
Just a few years, it's epic!
And Luo Mo's movie, what Luo Mo said, this naturally doesn't need to be questioned too much...... His film results are there, whether it is winning awards or high box office, they are all there......
"How long are you going to shoot "Yue Fei"?" Journalists have finally shifted the question to that.
Luo Mo pondered slightly, and then said: "According to the current script, as well as the arrangement of the shooting plan, the movie will officially start filming from now on and will continue to shoot until July next year, but this is when everything is going well, but in fact, there are not so many things that go well...... Just as the film has just started filming and the budget is seriously overrun, the time when the movie is actually finished may be a little earlier, or it may be postponed a little...... But no later than December next year, and no more than May at the earliest......"
Filming is almost a year old!
That's a big deal!
Everyone admires Luo Mo's courage, but at the same time, they are also a little worried about him in their hearts - more than 2 billion investments, a year of shooting, and constantly overspending the budget...... Luo Mo has given too much to this movie, but if this movie hits the box office by then, will Luo Mo collapse? If he really collapses, China's best and most promising director will die.
This is the ending that all those who love Chinese movies don't want to see.
…… The boot press conference ended in the shock of many people, and the news that Luo Mo revealed to everyone today did make them feel enthusiastic and dry, but at the same time, they also had a lot of worries about Luo Mo, and they were worried that he would mess up this time......
If Luo Mo messed up, no one would dare to do such a thing in the future.
At the same time, the news of the start-up press conference was quickly revealed by reporters and various media, and everyone heard all kinds of things Luo Mo said at the press conference.
"Shoot for a year!" This makes many people feel a heart-rending pain, and they have been waiting for Luo Mo's movie for several years, but now it is going to be filmed again, and it will be delayed for another year!
That's a year!
You can't wait!
“3。 $500 million investment! Everyone believes in this news, even veteran fans will believe it, because they know that Luo Mo does not cheat people and will not falsely report film investment, which can be easily seen from "Inception" and "Gravity".
3。 The investment of 500 million US dollars, on the one hand, makes everyone feel more excited, and the thought that the movie will be made for another year torments everyone.
On the other hand, 3. The investment of 500 million US dollars also made everyone a little worried, worried that Luo Mo's movie would hit the street this time...... What's more, even he himself said that he was not very sure, so what will happen to the movie will affect everyone's hearts even more......
…… Many fans have expressed various opinions, but their expectations for "Yue Fei" are getting stronger and stronger......
At a time when everyone's expectations for this kind of value are quite strong, the crew of "Yue Fei" officially began filming.
Luo Mo also returned to the time when he couldn't sleep for a few hours a day, and there were a lot of things waiting for him to deal with almost every moment, and he felt anxious...... Many times I really want to leave this mess with others and leave by myself.
And this is just the early stage of literary drama shooting.
There are too many places to pay attention to in these shootings, after all, it is a costume film......
Luo Mo really felt the difficulty of shooting costume films...... No, I felt the difficulty of shooting a truly exquisite costume film, otherwise, if it was as nonsense as a movie like "A Certain Light Treasure Box", there would not be so many things.
But no matter how difficult it is, you have to grit your teeth and persevere.
That night, at one o'clock in the morning, Luo Mo was still in the playback room, and Xie Dong stared at the playback screen to see that the entire playback room was already full of cigarette butts, and the whole room was also smoky, and many people would be smoked away by this strong smell of smoke when they walked in.
Luo Mo and Xie Dong still didn't feel much, and the two of them were still trying to create a more smoky smoke, making the whole room even more untreatable.
There were already a lot of fine and dense bloodshots in Luo Mo's eyes, and the same was true for Xie Dong's.
"...... here" Luo Mo took a look at the footage taken during the day, and here he shot a shot of himself, but at that time, his performance was a little problematic, Luo Mo thought about it and said: "Lao Xie, write it down, here needs to be reshot tomorrow......"
Xie Dong looked at it twice, then frowned and said, "You don't have to be so particular, right?" Do you still want to be an actor? ”
Luo Mo smiled: "What's wrong with me?" Even if I don't want to be an actor, it's too obvious here, and I have to do it all over again...... Let's shoot these things with a 4K camera now, and when the time comes, put them on the big screen with 4K quality, any pore can be seen clearly, so it's better not to fool the audience. ”
4K movie technology is now becoming more and more mature, 4K movie refers to the movie with a resolution of 4096×2160 when playing, that is, there are 4,000 pixels horizontally, and it is also the digital movie with the highest resolution at present. At present, most of the digital movies in China are 2K, with a resolution of 2048×1080, and some digital movies are only 1. 3K (1280×1024), while the so-called rural movie screening is 0. ...... of 8K (1024×768)
Since 2012, 4K movies and 4K theaters have also ushered in a period of rapid development in China, and by this year, there have been a lot of 4K cinemas across the country, and when "Yue Fei" is released, it is estimated that the entire China's 4K cinemas will have a substantial growth.
After all, 4K is a trend and trend, and it is everyone's pursuit of more and more profound viewing experience, but the clearer resolution of 4K requires more difficult shooting...... That's why Luo Mo is so refined.
Xie Dong nodded, threw another cigarette butt to the ground, then stepped on it with his foot, and said, "Okay...... Listen to your ...... It's just that you have to look at it too, and we're seriously ahead of our expectations. ”
Luo Mo was stunned......
Indeed, this is really the case, up to now, they have stayed in Hengdian for too long, and they originally planned to shoot the entire itinerary in Hengdian for about 8 days...... But it's been 12 days now, and it's only two-thirds of the shooting, all because he was too demanding during this time, which led to the current situation...... The plan went too far.
"We still have to maintain the standard." Luo Mo said: "Otherwise, wouldn't we invest so much money in vain?" And now the crew has just begun to run in, so the shooting progress is a little slower, and when the filming is proficient, the shooting efficiency will naturally follow. ”
"Well, listen to you!" Xie Dong nodded and agreed with Luo Mo's statement, in fact, after "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love", he didn't have any particularly outstanding film works, and now he is back to follow Luo Mo, he is still very grateful to Luo Mo...... will also do a good job of dirty work for Luo Mo, and try to implement Luo Mo's ideas with the most perfect attitude.
