Chapter 632: Massive Movie Preparations
PS: Bow and thank the "Mighty River" students for their 588 starting coins for rewarding, thank you very much!
The filming of "Gravity" has been going on for some years, and this time it has been completed, and it has once again returned to the memories of fans, making them suddenly realize that Stephen Zhao also made a science fiction movie called "Gravity".
However, the excitement is lively, but for reasons of secrecy, no one knows what kind of story "Gravity" tells, just some stills.
Rao is like this, and countless fans are still as excited as chicken blood.
Because the stills sent are all magnificent space pictures, pure, bright, magnificent, empty, and cold...... It is unforgettable and impressive at first sight.
Space is unknown and mysterious!
Since the dawn of mankind, mankind has begun to speculate about space. In ancient times, due to the reason of knowledge, people regarded space as a god-like worship, called "God", "God", and Huaxia even gave birth to a set of ideas of heaven and man induction and monarchy; In modern times, although artificial satellites have gone into the sky, spaceships have gone to space, human beings have walked in space, and they have begun to walk on the moon, but for the vast space, human beings are still incomparably small, a drop in the ocean.
The more you know, the more you are in awe, which is why the sci-fi film of interstellar warfare is so fascinating, because it can make people have a great sense of accomplishment in conquering space on the screen!
That's why, after the magnificent space stills of "Gravity" were released, countless people were shocked and excited!
Not only Chinese people, but also people from other countries and regions in Asia, and even people from Europe and the United States.
Space science fiction films, the mainstream is interstellar warfare, and there is a premise in this: human beings have stepped out of the solar system. As for the space science fiction films made based on space technology in this period, there are basically none!
Yes. It is also "The Moon" filmed by US imperialist Hollywood, but there are no space shots, and some of them are all shots of humans on the moon and on spaceships.
Shot in space, "Gravity" was the first film on Saturn, creating a historical first!
"It's so beautiful!"
"Magnificent!"
"Magnificent!"
"Epic!"
"Unprecedented!"
"Xingshen actually made such a film, beyond my imagination!"
"Tsk. This still is high-end and atmospheric, and the film must look very cool! ”
"It turned out to be a space movie, I thought it was an interstellar war movie, but I'm really looking forward to it, this should be the world's first film to shoot space, right?"
"This kind of space film must have very good special effects, otherwise you won't be able to shoot that feeling. The sound effect should also be good, preferably in 3D-IMAX format, so that the most shocking effect! ”
"Can Huaxia make that kind of special effect? A little skeptical! ”
"I heard that the special effects technology was only come up with under the guidance of the stars, and I hope the effect of the finished film will be good!"
……
"Tianlin. Can "Gravity" catch up with this year's Chinese New Year? Stephen Zhao called Zhang Tianlin on the second day after the completion of "Gravity".
Zhang Tianlin replied: "At least until this time next year." ”
Zhao Xingchi was speechless for a moment, and then hung up the phone: "Just because I didn't ask." ”
The post-production special effects of blockbusters are the norm for half a year to a year. He called to ask, but he was just anxious. Since it's not that fast, forget it.
"Gravity" has been filmed, the two-part "Journey to the West" has also been filmed, "Twilight" has entered the filming stage, and the "Journey to the West" TV series is still filming.
However, Zhao Xingchi asked Lin Meijia, and Lin Meijia immediately picked out some of the things he had previously remarked. Although there are not many important things, it also takes a little thought.
The TV series "Romance of the Gods" should be adapted, martial arts novels should be continued, "Journey to the West: Demon Subjugation" should be done, and kung fu movies should be filmed......
Kung fu film filmed. Of course, it can't be the kind of simple hot kung fu movie, which is no longer popular. What is popular now is an excellent plot and then a strong kung fu.
Witty action movies, that is Cheng Jie's patent, there is no need for Red Star Media to mix it.
As for Bruce Lee's kung fu movies, they are too clumsy, and Stephen Zhao is not interested in getting involved.
Qian is some of the kung fu movies I've seen. Stephen Zhao really couldn't arouse any interest. Even if it is a nonsensical kung fu movie "Kung Fu" with the name of "Kung Fu", it is good-looking and good-looking, but it has lost the taste of kung fu and nonsensical taste, which is a bit pretentious.
A new-school kung fu movie. is the type that Stephen Zhao intends to enter in a big way, such as "Zhou Wen"!
During the Republic of China, there were also many kung fu masters, many of whom have been put on the big screen, but there are still many unknowns, Stephen Zhao hopes to put these masters on the screen one by one, it is best for each master to shoot a series, just like "Huang Feihong" in the previous life, he filmed N parts, and Li Lianjie alone filmed 6 films!
There is no Huang Feihong here in Huaxia, so Stephen Zhao can't move the "Huang Feihong" series of movies over, but it doesn't matter, there are no other Feihong or other XXX masters without Huang Feihong, he can completely transplant the storyline and just replace "Huang Feihong" with "xxx". Of course, the special effects and lenses have to be changed to conform to the current shooting technology.
The more advanced the shooting technology, the more beautiful the film will be.
Movies in the eighties and nineties won by plot, so the shots were generally bad, the texture was not so sufficient, and it gave people a rough and rustic feeling.
In today's movies, it's useless just to have a good plot, and you have to have textured shots that make people look comfortable and feel beautiful.
After Lin Meijia reminded her, Stephen Zhao decided to send someone to collect the information of those kung fu masters, and began to write a series of movie scripts for the masters.
"xxx: Top Gun": "xxx has strong martial arts, and he serves as the head coach of the Black Flag Army and the head coach of the militia. Meixian met the beautiful heroine in the theater, and didn't want the heroine to be xxx's lover, all kinds of misunderstandings, so-and-so took refuge in the little boss and xxx as enemies. The American imperialists abducted and sold women, and the heroine was also taken captive, xxx finally fought bloody battles with foreigners......"
"xxx's boy should be self-reliant": "xxx should be invited by the International Medical Association. and so-and-so, the heroine went to Zhouguang City, met the White Lotus Sect on the way, and then got the help of Lu Haodong, lived in the consulate of John Bull, and got acquainted with the revolutionary leader so-and-so...... Finally, xxx is to preserve the lifeblood of national fortune. Fight the big boss and help the revolutionary leader escape! ”
"xxx's Lion King Competition": "xxx came to the capital to visit his father, but was oppressed by the evil young Zhao Tianba in the capital, and later learned that Mao Ziguo wanted to assassinate a certain minister, xxx resolutely participated in the lion king competition, and successfully saved a certain minister and explained the strategy of governing the country! ”
"xxx: The Dragon Travels the World";
"XXX's Iron Fighting Centipede";
"xxx: The Lion of the Western Regions"!
……
Stephen Zhao wrote the script of the "xxx" master's movie series in less than an hour, a full 6 of them, and then sent them to Lin Meijia. Let her take it to the screenwriter's studio.
Lin Meijia didn't react in surprise at all, and immediately complied.
The people in the screenwriting studio didn't have any surprised reactions, and soon after getting the outline, they got together in twos and threes and started to write the script, and completely filled the outline given by Stephen Zhao into the plot, characters, background, lines, etc.
Of course, the letter "xxx", which represents the name, still made them collectively speechless, thinking: "I rub, is this writing a web novel?" Kung fu movie routine? ”
xxx, which means that any kung fu master can be arranged. Huang Feihong, Li Feihong, Zhao Feihong, etc., as long as they are masters in the Republic of China. You can use it.
The three views are disillusioned, and the festival is gone!
Stephen Zhao, who finished writing the 6 outlines, completely left this matter behind, and he began to wonder whether "Journey to the West: Demon Suppression" should be filmed.
Journey to the West is a two-part series, one "Moonlight Treasure Box" and one "Cinderella", and the plot is coherent. And the theme idea is also coherent and inseparable.
As for "Journey to the West: Demon Conquering", called "Journey to the West", in fact, it has nothing to do with the Journey to the West series of movies, if you insist on having something to do with it, then it can only be said that the storyline of "Journey to the West: Demon Conquering" is also very engaging. Yan zhòng's deviation from "Journey to the West" is of the same nature as the Journey to the West series of movies in this regard.
"In the name of Journey to the West, rushing to the foot is like selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, but for the sake of the box office, the festival is still on sale!" Zhao Xingchi pondered.
The movie "Demon Suppression", many people sprayed, saying that it was not interesting at all, too ugly, too pretending, very disappointed, and the plot was weak, and it was generally considered that it was far worse than "Moonlight Treasure Box" and "Cinderella".
Stephen Zhao also thinks that "Demon Suppression" is much worse than "Moonlight Treasure Box" and "Cinderella", but to say that "Demon Suppression" is ugly, it is not so much.
On the contrary, Stephen Zhao thinks that "Demon Suppression" is still very good, but it is a little too procrastinating.
The main story line of "Demon Suppression" is very clear, it tells the story of a world where demons are rampant, the people are miserable, and the exorcist you invited Xuanzang to give up the small self and become the fearless spirit of the big me, after going through hardships and obstacles, subdued the water demon, the pig demon, and the king of the demon king Sun Wukong as apprentices, and touched with love, and Xuanzang himself finally understood the true meaning of great love.
Three small units, one emotional line, and finally Xuanzang realized that he would lead the team to the west!
If you tell the story seriously and don't add those boring funny, it is not difficult for "Demon Suppression" to become a classic like "Moonlight Treasure Box" and "Cinderella". But in "Demon Suppression", many funny jokes are boring and unnecessary, not only did they not play a role in driving the plot and rendering the plot, but instead made the plot stiff, bloated, and protracted.
For example, the actor spoke while squirting blood, and it was okay for a while, but the movie kept spraying, and the camera paused from time to time.
Of course, these procrastination are only minor blemishes.
The complete story, touching plot, good special effects, and refracted ideas all make Stephen Zhao speak highly of "Demon Suppression".
If 10 points is a perfect score, Stephen Zhao gave "Demon Suppression" 8 points! (To be continued......)
