The painting is finished!

A piece of news suddenly landed in the magazine "Contemporary Film Industry", and then spread to the entire film and television industry.

"Painted Skin", which has been popular for two whole months, has finally been completed.

In the magazine, Li Lin, Zhao Wei, and Zhou Xun were smiling, and Chen Jia and other staff next to them were laughing and chatting together, and the scene was very lively.

"06 years of highly anticipated work "painted skin" was completed yesterday, according to director Chen Jiashang revealed, this film is very hard in the process of filming, due to the relationship between many scenes, starring Li Lin, Zhao Wei, Zhou Xun and others have been injured by different Cheng dΓΉ, but they work hard, even if they are injured, they just rub the medicine and continue filming."

"This kind of professionalism is very admirable."

"Contemporary Film Industry", which got the scoop, naturally gave a small boost to the crew of "Painted Skin".

As soon as this news came out, the entire film and television industry was shocked.

"The final masterpiece of 06 "Painted Skin" came, Li Lin personally joined, and Mizuno Liang, the father of oriental magic, personally wrote the script, you must watch it."

"The new Liaozhai, the new "Painted Skin", the masterpiece "Painted Skin" invested by the gold medal film and television production company "Painted Skin" will land in major theaters on the 28th, please stay tuned for it."

""Painted Skin" opened the Spring Festival file, and "Red Cliff" ended, and it was another round of strangulation, I don't know who can break through the strangulation situation of the gold medal film and television company."

"Painted Skin has finally finished filming."

"Painted Skin" sticker.

As the news of the upcoming release of "Painted Skin" spreads, the number of people in this post bar is also growing. A large number of fans are looking forward to chatting about the possible content of "Painted Skin" in the post bar.

Judging from "Painting Heart" and "Only Love", "Painted Skin" is obviously based on love. And it's a poignant love, which seems to be quite in line with my appetite. ”

"Probably not, Oriental Magic, and Zhao Wenzhuo is in it, there must be a play."

"I don't know how the special effects are, Mizuno Liang is also a great Japanese writer, and his screenwriting works should not be too bad. And I heard that Gold Medal Film and Television have a relationship with Universal Movies, and I don't know if I will ask a Hollywood special effects company to do special effects. ”

"Upstairs, I've inquired about it. The special effects of "Painted Skin" are made by the well-known industrial light and magic, and the top special effects team that determines it is definitely not comparable to the outsourced special effects teams in China. ”

"Damn, ILM. "Painted Skin" actually invited them. I'm afraid it's expensive! ”

"Generally speaking, I heard that the cost of making special effects has exceeded 10 million US dollars, I don't know what the effect is, it should be very good!"

……

In the Takarazuka Cinema Line in Tokyo, Japan, several Japanese are watching the sample film of "Painted Skin", and the beautiful special effects and the original flavor of the original story are incomprehensible to these Japanese.

But just because they can't understand it doesn't mean they can't read it, and it's a subtitle that is urgently processed. Let them understand the plot at a preliminary level.

"Kadokawa-san, what do you think of this movie?"

Inside a quiet room. A Japanese with gray hair closed his eyes and a turquoise cane in his hand, "Is it worth introducing and promoting?" ”

"It's okay to introduce it, but it needs to be investigated to promote it vigorously." A Japanese named Kadokawa said respectfully, "This movie is a very good movie in terms of special effects. ”

"And with the fame of Mizuno Liang and Li Jun, I think it will get a good attention in Japan, but this is a Chinese movie."

"In recent years, "Hero" and "Ambush" have achieved some success in the Japanese market, and only a few."

Zhang Yimou's name, even in Japan, has a certain degree of popularity.

His "Heroes" and "Ambush on All Sides" both attracted Japanese publishers to join, and although the results were not very satisfactory, they did not make the publishers lose money.

And this time, although Chen Jiashang does not have much reputation in Japan, the names of Li Lin and Mizuno Liang are enough to support a movie.

It's just that the quality of the film itself and whether it is popular with the Japanese is still unknown.

If Tokyo Takarazuka Cinema Line directly and vigorously promotes "Painted Skin" without investigation, once "Painted Skin" is not popular with the Japanese people, then the loss of Tokyo Takarazuka Cinema Line is certain.

"Then investigate!" The old man said lightly, and did not open his eyes until the end.

The investigation was soon underway.

And their survey is very simple, just send a questionnaire to fans who watch the movie at the entrance of all the theaters of the Takarazuka Cinema Line in Tokyo.

The questions are, 'Do you know the story of the painted skin?' and 'If there is a movie starring Li Lin and written by Ryo Mizuno, will you watch it?'

It's a simple question, but it involves two crucial points.

The former is investigating the popularity of painting skin or Liaozhai in Japan, as a Japan that is very influenced by Chinese culture, and some stories of China are very well understood, even if you don't know it, you will hear about it, such as the Three Kingdoms, Romance of the Gods, these works, are often put on TV and games.

But talk about fasting.

They weren't sure.

Liao Zhai is not with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, nor is it the Romance of the Gods, his audience is a little smaller than the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Romance of the Gods, and Tokyo Takarazuka Cinema needs to investigate Liao Zhai's popularity in Japan to determine whether "Painted Skin" can attract Japanese fans.

As for the second one, it is to see whether Mizuno Liang and Li Lin's fame and popularity in Japan can support a work, that is, to see their box office appeal.

Soon, all the investigations were over, and as a result, they all returned to the headquarters of the Takarazuka Cinema Line in Tokyo.

"In Japan, only 12% of movie fans under the age of 30 know about Liaosai, and only 8% know about painting, which is a very small number." Kadokawa respectfully reported to the white-haired Japanese, "However, among middle-aged people over the age of 30 in Japan, 46% of them know about Liaosai, and 45% know how to paint skin, which is a very scary number." ”

It's hard to say which group is the main group at the box office of the movie, but the middle-aged group over 30 years old is a group that cannot be ignored, because as the head of the family, they often take the whole family to watch the movie together, and from the box office, a middle-aged person can often contribute several tickets.

But it is not easy to impress this group, and the painting skin occupies a great advantage in this regard.

"As for the second question." Kadokawa opened the number of information, glanced at it lightly, and was immediately stunned, his pupils shrank, and his eyes flashed with disbelief, "How is it possible." ”

"Kadokawa, I taught you that you don't need to be too excited about anything, because the emotion of excitement can affect your judgment." The gray-haired old man opened his eyes, glanced at Kadokawa dissatisfiedly, and gently mentioned a word, then closed his eyes, "Say, what surprised you so much." ”

"Yes."

After Kadokawa sorted out his feelings, he immediately reported these numbers, "Judging from the questionnaire, 34% of the people will definitely go to watch the movies starring Li Lin, and 12% will definitely go to the movies written by Ryo Mizuno, because the factors of the two are 6%. ”

"And those who may go to see it account for 24%, 14% who wait for the movie to be evaluated before watching it, and only 10% who look at the situation."

"Horror box office appeal."

34% of the group, although this survey is not a census, although this survey is not so accurate, but in terms of proportion, Li Lin's influence is also quite amazing, at least ordinary Japanese divas, there is absolutely no such situation.

"Li Lin is a foreigner." The gray-haired old man spoke slowly, and then closed his mouth.

Suddenly, Kadokawa understood.

Li Lin is a foreigner and rarely comes to Japan for activities, so it is very difficult for his fans in Japan to meet Li Lin, and this difficulty has caused hunger marketing in a certain way, and the first beneficiary of hunger marketing is obviously the movie "Painted Skin".

"Kadokawa, do you think that we at Tokyo Takarazuka Cinema Line need to vigorously promote the movie "Painted Skin"?"

"Yes." Kadokawa said categorically, "Judging from the survey, the movie "Painted Skin" has considerable potential to become a hit movie in Japan. ”

"But its name should be changed slightly, "Untouchable Love", which is more suitable for the name of this movie."

Japanese films to foreign countries are equivalent to bizarre, and they are generally divided into three genres.

One is an inexplicable type, for example, when "The Wife of a Death Row Prisoner" was introduced to Japan, the translated title was called "Chocolate", and the translated name of "Ambush on All Sides" was called "Lover".

One is the mere type, for example, "Mr. Sweetheart" was translated as "Conquest of Love", 96 Tom. Cruise & Renee. The romance film starring Zilvig was actually translated into "The Agent" in Japan! Another example, "The End of Love" (Julianne. Moore and Reif. Vannes's classic), which turned out to be literally translated as "The End of the Matter", which is so rigid that people can't laugh or cry.

The last one is the beautiful type: I also talk about "Moment by Moment", which is translated into "The Time of Traveling Encounters" in Japanese, which is very beautiful.

Kadokawa's translation, on the other hand, is clearly based on a beautiful translation.

He believes that the renaming of "Painted Skin" to "Untouchable Love" will appeal to Japanese audiences even more.

In South Korea's Xijie Entertainment, there is also a group of people discussing Li Lin's "Painted Skin".

"Zhengwoo, what do you think of "Painted Skin"?"

"Quite a good film, and starring Li Lin, his "King's Man" has set a record in our South Korea, I believe his works have a large market share in South Korea."

"Then you go to contact and must win the distribution rights of "Painted Skin" in South Korea." (To be continued......)
