Chapter 144 Movie and animation at the same time
The premiere of Zuihou also had a test screening, which is actually to show the movie at the ceremony, and not all movies are shown at the current movie premiere ceremony, and it does not mean that the movie will be released immediately after the ceremony.
The national unified release of "Floating Snow" was actually two days later, that is, on the day of the National Day, and the premiere of the live TV broadcast did not include the broadcast of the movie, if this is the case, then just watch TV, who will go to the cinema.
Hongchen is ridiculous, infatuation is the most boring, it's okay to be empty-eyed, this life is over, but the heart is not disturbed, I just want to exchange for half a lifetime
When the heroine played by Zheng Xiaoyi sang the song while playing the pipa, Li Youwei gave Zhang Yao a thumbs up, although it was in a dark environment, but Zhang Yao could still see it clearly with the lights on the screen.
Not only Li Youwei's approval, but the audience at the scene was also interested, even Liu Yunsheng couldn't help nodding, he must have already known how this episode was, and now he still nodded can only say that he is too satisfied with the effect.
Zhang Yao smiled and watched it very carefully, but in addition to the beautiful picture, this movie really can't find anything to praise, it feels a bit like "Hero" in the original time and space, although the plot is completely different.
After all, Zheng Xiaoyi is making a movie for the first time, and his performance is decent, although there are no leaks, but there are no bright spots, it can only be said that he has reached the passing line.
If it seems that the highlight of the movie will become the song "Laughing Red Dust", Liu Yunsheng is a director who is good at police and gangster films after all, and every Celestial Dynasty person has a martial arts dream, which is actually a good thing. But there is always a fly in the ointment when it is filmed. You can't just say it's bad. It just feels weird.
How to put it, it's like a dish that looks very beautiful, using the most haode ingredients, and the chef is also the best, but it tastes like no appetite, and it just feels unappetizing.
"Lao Liu's drama is much worse than the previous Infernal Affairs."
Li Youwei couldn't help but speak up, and said unceremoniously: "If it weren't for this episode you wrote, this movie would be more mediocre." It seems that I have to talk to him well in the future, so let him concentrate on making police movies. ”
"Brother Li, I guess Director Liu himself is quite helpless."
Many people are exchanging opinions in a low voice, not because they disrespect the director, but because except for a small number of fans and audiences, the others are either guests or film critics and reporters, and it is normal for film critics to exchange opinions.
In the entertainment industry, no matter how big the age gap is, it is always called big brother, and Zhang Yao also called Li Youwei like this, saying: "Now Hong Kong movies are lonely." All Hong Kong directors went north to film, while the mainland has a lot of restrictions on police and gangster films. It's not easy to shoot. ”
"That's the same, forget it, let Lao Liu have a headache by himself."
Li Youwei said with a smile: "It's impossible for him not to know how the shooting went, don't tell the story, your song really fits the artistic conception of the movie, to put it bluntly, the meaning that the movie wants to express is not as thorough as your song." ”
"Laughing Red Dust" is also the theme song of martial arts movies in the original time and space, the original movie was called "The Undefeated Comeback of the East", this song is the embodiment of the true meaning of life, and it is also the embodiment of life, and the kind of freedom in the song is also very consistent with the chivalry in the martial arts story.
Zhang Yao is a problem that the audience can see, and those professional film critics can't see it for no reason, but they still showed mercy in the end, and some said that the film's shortcomings were not blindly denied.
There are so many movie fans in the country, it is impossible for everyone to be a fan of the director or the starring role, and for some fans, the comments of film critics and even viewers will cause them to make different decisions.
If you give a negative review on a one-sided basis, then many people will not watch it again after listening to it, which is not good for the box office in the slightest, but the one-sided criticism is not much for real film critics except for the audience, and most of them are still very pertinent.
"I'm a little worried, what will happen if the box office is bad?"
Zheng Xiao was also making a movie for the first time, and he was not confident in his performance, but after reading these comments, he was even more nervous, Zhang Yao said: "What will it become?" Of course, you'll have a box office poison title from now on. ”
"Whether a movie is good at the box office or not, you can't just blame the actors, right?"
Zheng Xiao also said dissatisfiedly: "The actor just has a good performance, how the story develops, how to shoot is the director and screenwriter, weishenme wants the director to carry the black pot?" ”
"When the movie is made and the actors get all the praise, no one comes to fight with the director and screenwriter."
Zhang Yao said: "It's the actor's credit if you can't shoot well, and it's the director's fault if you don't shoot well, right?" ”
"Well, why are you talking about that?"
Zheng Xiao also sat down with a lack of interest and said: "Forget it, box office poison is box office poison, and the people who went to the cinema for me should feel worth the ticket price after listening to the song Xiao Hongchen." ”
"I don't know what will happen to your movie at the box office, but my cartoon ratings will definitely be good."
Zhang Yao said proudly, and Zheng Xiao immediately asked: "The light girl is about to be broadcast?" ”
"It's been in production for so long, and it's time to broadcast it."
Zhang Yao said: "The people from Shangmei Film called me, and they sold the premiere rights to CCTV, which will be broadcast from the National Day, and one episode will be broadcast every day from Monday to Friday, and it will be broadcast for just three weeks. ”
"Shangmei Film is a state-owned enterprise, and the relationship with CCTV is also very good, so it is not surprising that it will be broadcast on CCTV."
Zheng Xiao also said: "What about the copyright fee? Now that Shangmei Film is not as good as before after all, even CCTV may use such a reason to lower prices, right? ”
"Shangmeiying's creation is indeed not as good as before, but the production capacity is still there."
Zhang Yao said: "How can I say that my light-voiced girl is also a gold-lettered signboard, even if you don't look at the face of Shangmeiying, you should see how many people are looking forward to the light-sounding girl." ”
"Come on, don't say these things that everyone knows, just look at the way you owe Bian, you can see that the copyright fee must be a lot, right?"
Zheng Xiaoyi said: "Let's talk directly, how much is it, and how much can you, an investor, profit?" ”
"I want to tell you too, but I don't know the exact price yet."
Zhang Yao spread his hands and said: "The people on Meiying have sold it to me, and it is said that it is a sky-high price, which is higher than the price of any domestic animation and the animation of the eleventh district introduced in the past, and I don't know how high it is." ”
"You're an investor, you know it because you should, why sell it to you?"
Zheng Xiao was also a little incomprehensible, and said: "What does this sale mean, you don't know how much money you sold, how to calculate how much profit you should get?" ”
"You'll be careful, they won't lose my money."
Zhang Yao said: "According to my estimates, the sky-high price is not enough for the production cost, and it is actually fun to sell it with me at this time, just tell me in the future." ”
"What, if you can't get back the investment, then what's going on, who wants to invest in animation in the future."
Zheng Xiao was also speechless, Zhang Yao scratched his head and said: "This is also a matter of no way, domestic animation can't develop, and all that is broadcast is some shoddy things, there is also such a reason, you spend 18 million to make a good animation, and take it to the TV station for 800 yuan a episode to broadcast, who wants to do a good one?" ”
"In that case, why do you want to invest?"
Zheng Xiao also said: "I understand your desire to revitalize domestic animation, but this is too much nonsense, who can stand the difference between speculation and income, and no matter how rich people continue like this, they will lose their underwear." ”
"That's why I said that the sky-high price is not high."
Zhang Yao explained: "I don't know about the 11th district, but if I don't give the TV station, it should only account for a small part of the revenue, and I seem to have heard that it is not profitable." ”
"Of course, you can't make money selling to TV stations, and you can't make money at all if you don't watch it. After the premiere, you can replay it, and you can also sell DVDs and merchandise, and you can still make money if you count it all. ”
"I see, I've also heard that anime peripherals are very profitable."
Zheng Xiao also nodded with understanding, and Zhang Yao smiled: "And not only in China, with the influence of the light girl in the eleventh district, as long as the animation version produced by Shangmei Film is of excellent quality, it is easy to continue to counterattack the past if it is not broken, and if you count other countries, it is certain to make a lot of money." ”
"It's a pity that not every domestic animation can do this, otherwise domestic animation can really be revitalized."
Zheng Xiaoyi's expression was very regretful, and Zhang Yao shrugged his shoulders and said, "I can't help it, but if there is a first part, there will be a second part, take your time." Have you noticed, in addition to my soft-voiced girl, there is now a work of the king of picture books is also beginning to emerge. ”
"Warlock Legend, that's what you're talking about, right?"
Zheng Xiao also said: "At the beginning, Xiaoqi and Asuka both told me that when you went to attend the annual meeting of the king of picture books, the idea of this comic was still provided by you, how could I not know." ”
"I was creative, but it wasn't much of a help."
Zhang Yao smiled: "I didn't expect Le Xiaotian to draw so well, it was really well thought out, I just played the role of the finishing touch." ”
"You don't have to forget Fei Bo, I'm not used to you being so modest."
Zheng Xiaoyi said: "The finishing touch, the most important thing is this, without such a point, the dragon will not be angry, so I think in the final analysis it is actually your credit." (To be continued......)
