Chapter 453 "Saving Private Ryan" is officially completed
Indeed, after coming to this time and space, Li Chencan has always been smooth, basically there have been no setbacks, at most the whole country is scolded, but after all, it is just a few words of scolding him, and when Li Chencan's works appear, these things can be solved.
But this time it's different......
A penny is hard to beat a hero, this is definitely more than just a statement.
What can you do when you run out of money?
If the movie has no publicity and can only rot, no matter how well it is made, it can only be a tragedy.
Moreover, this is only a problem with the movie itself, and the threat of that guy has not been taken into account.
"Saving Private Ryan" also enters an unprecedented test.
It was also an unprecedented test for Li Chencan.
But even after facing so much pressure, Li Chencan still didn't reveal it to anyone in the crew...... The main thing is that I don't want these guys to be excited.
Let's finish the movie first!
In fact, now the copyright of "Infernal Affairs" and various film shares have also come to the account of Li Chencan's personal studio, and all this money adds up to hundreds of millions, which is used to handle all the filming and post-processing of "Saving Private Ryan", and even part of the publicity.
Therefore, there is no problem in filming "Saving Private Ryan", and Li Chencan will make the movie first...... He and Sun Yunzhang had been working on the idea of solving the funding problem for a long time.
So, in such a shoot. By the time it was July 24th......
In the midst of the ruins, in the ruins, the last scene of the film was filmed.
This is the most embarrassing picture. It was after the battle was over, that the captain played by Lu Weidong had died, and several others survived until reinforcements arrived.
In fact, the most commendable thing about the war scenes in "Saving Private Ryan" is that they are real and not grandiose, Li Chencan feels that he has mastered that essence anyway, and this is not a self-satisfied casual thought, but it is true.
That's really the case......
He has the impression of that movie, and he has the help of learning so much and a better brain. It is not a problem to grasp this essence either.
"Over!"
After the scene notes were spoken, Lu Weidong and a few people next to them at the scene got up from the rubble and looked blankly at the direction of the camera. With mixed feelings in their hearts, they couldn't move their bodies for a while. At this moment, they only felt a slight sense of excitement that they couldn't suppress, and this excitement even made them tremble a little.
During the filming of "Saving Private Ryan", Li Chencan really fulfilled his promise - let everyone be tortured in it, and it was not discounted at all.
Lu Weidong felt that he had gone through all kinds of torture like this. Torture yourself so much that it's not just your flesh. Even the spirit is also problematic...... Anyway, he felt like he was sleeping and could hear the rumble of cannons, and he always felt like he had gone from the battlefield.
It's a hard thing to get anyway.
But now, the movie is finally finished.
The cheers rang out one after another, and the torture of Li Chencan and "Saving Private Ryan" to everyone was not only on those actors, but also on the cast and crew.
Many people are now standing on high places beside them, waving their hands and shouting.
Li Chencan saw that everyone was much more excited when they heard the movie after filming than when they heard "Infernal Affairs". Of course, I also know that the film "Saving Private Ryan" is indeed much more difficult than when filming "Infernal Affairs". The torture of everyone is also on the next level......
Indeed, the effect of this movie is quite good, from the beginning to the end, Li Chencan feels that he can use IMAX3D shooting techniques to let them experience the shock of a war, in this regard, although there are no shaky shots like those documentaries, but in terms of the restoration of the battlefield, "Saving Private Ryan" will definitely bring greater changes because of the progress of technology.
At the end of the banquet, sure enough, a bunch of people wanted to get drunk Li Chencan, Li Chencan didn't drink more after a few casual drinks, and still refused directly like last time.
After drinking some wine, Li Chencan's emotions were not completely suppressed...... Now that he is now, everyone can also feel Li Chencan's worries.
It seems that there are a lot of things bothering him.
Li Chencan saw everyone looking at him, and quickly showed his smiling face: "Everyone is eating and drinking...... I'll leave you alone...... A bunch of women are pestering me, I'll deal with it first. ”
"Cut."
A uniform voice came from the scene.
When he came outside, Li Chencan's smiling face also disappeared, and his purpose in suppressing his emotions just now was very simple - in this kind of time when everyone was relatively happy, if he had a straight face because he had something in his heart, it would definitely affect everyone's mood, and it would not be good to play.
The reason is very simple, a group of friends go out to play, if someone has been very sad, a lot of things, other people will be more or less affected, so many people will disguise a smiling face in front of their friends, not to say that it is not worth saying, but not to let others be disappointed.
Li Chencan is like that.
There was a breeze blowing outside, Jiangnan Province in July was like a big steamer, and now that he felt this breeze, Li Chencan felt a lot better.
After a while, Li Chencan also went to sleep.
After returning to Rongcheng, Li Chencan and Sun Yunzhang began to discuss the current dead end.
At present, the studio can still spend about 150 million on "Saving Private Ryan", of which 70 or 80 million will be used for post-production, as well as other packaging and various dots, 100 million is wanted......
And then they only have 50 million left for propaganda......
50 million is really not enough to do publicity, how can this be!
"Brother Sun, I've thought about it carefully these days, let's follow what I said before, let's discuss, at least 200 million yuan is needed......"
Sun Yunzhang hesitated, but when he saw Li Chencan's eyes, he nodded: "Okay...... I got it. ”
This is a solution that Sun Yunzhang and Li Chencan discussed before - bank loans!
Originally, the bank loan is not simple, especially in the current state of "Saving Private Ryan", it is completely a temporary loan, which is not only more troublesome, but also the bank may also increase the interest.
Banks are one of the profiteering industries in this era, and it is really not easy to borrow money there, Li Chencan's personal studio has to use the copyrights of many of Li Chencan's music, songs, books, and movies as collateral!
Since the nineties of the last century, banks have also had such a rule - the collateral can be the copyright of various cultural products, and of course it must also be valuable, otherwise it will not make sense for them to come over.
Are Li Chencan's songs, books, movies, or anything valuable...... Needless to say, it would be of great value, for example.
After the events of this day, Li Chencan plunged headlong into the post-production of "Saving Private Ryan".
The post-production of "Saving Private Ryan" is very important, and Li Chencan carefully compared the differences between the two worlds before he came up with a plan for the post-production of the film.
The post-production of "Saving Private Ryan" is definitely a lot more troublesome than the likes of "Infernal Affairs", which is an IMAX3D movie and is a hassle to make.
Of course, Li Chencan has to supervise on the spot.
According to Li Chencan's plan, at the beginning of "Saving Private Ryan", it was to create an almost real texture, and here, there are many things that need to be paid attention to, such as color grading and 3D rendering of the movie...... Where to have a good 3D effect, and where to have a weak 3D effect, these are all things that need to be personally supervised by him.
The 3D effect is not good everywhere...... A lot of things depend on the specific application.
In terms of the production of 3D effects, "Saving Private Ryan" was also produced while filming from the very beginning, and there was also the strictest supervision of Li Chencan at that time, so this point may be more of a post-fine-tuning at this time.
At the end of the movie, you also need that feeling of a real battlefield, showing all the cruelty......
Movies are not all right when they are made, and many times, if the post-editing is not done well, a good movie may be cut into a bad movie, which is a tragedy.
Li Chencan is now personally handling it in many places, and many times even if he doesn't do it himself, he tries to be as strict as possible, anyway, he can't let this movie make any mistakes.
According to the current progress, by August, the film will be officially cut out and sent for review. This is also the result of Li Chencan's careful production, and it still takes so much time when many 3D lenses have already been made.
…… When it came in August, Li Chencan quickly got the news that Li Chencan's personal studio finally reached an agreement with the bank, and he finally got a loan of 200 million national yuan from the bank with the copyright of various films, as well as part of the copyright of Li Chencan's "Saving Private Ryan" as collateral......
The 200 million comes as if it was a relief in the snow, and the next later publicity of "Saving Private Ryan" is still guaranteed.
It's just that the price is still very high......
5.6% interest rate, which requires more than 10 million interest, and it still has to be paid off as soon as possible...... This also pushed Li Chencan and "Saving Private Ryan" to the edge of the cliff - once these can't be completed, once "Save Private Ryan" loses money, then Li Chencan will be in debt!
Since his rebirth, Li Chencan has faced the biggest crisis this time. (To be continued......)
