Chapter 0451 The Chinese are not just able to fight
Director Pan Yueda finally agreed to take over the film, on the one hand, they had worked together before, and he knew what kind of company Tomahawk Entertainment was, and basically wouldn't make bad movies; On the other hand, the investment of 500 million yuan is really fragrant.
Using the investment in commercial films to make literary films, this kind of thing is estimated to be something that Tomahawk Entertainment can do.
But in fact, Tomahawk Entertainment did not suffer a loss, because 300 million of the 500 million investment was sponsored by Shuangmu Cinema Line.
Yes, sponsorship is not an investment, they do not participate in the producer's box office sharing, and the benefits they get are sponsor acknowledgments at the beginning and end of the film, as well as ...... This movie and the Spring Festival file "Huo Yuanjia (Prequel)" can be released in Shuangmu Cinemas.
To be honest, when the 300 million was taken out, the person in charge of Shuangmu Cinema almost gritted his teeth. But then I thought that my logo could appear on the screen of another company's cinema, and my mood was slightly better.
The main thing is that after talking about this movie, "Huo Yuanjia (Prequel)" and other subsequent movies can be released on Shuangmu Cinemas, and the franchised cinemas under Shuangmu Cinemas can settle down, so that the backyard will not catch fire and lose their market share in China.
After getting the director of An Keke's award-winning literary film, Han Lan doesn't have to worry about the rest, Pan Yue can bring a crew out by himself.
Then another movie of Tomahawk Entertainment "Jingwu Chen Zhen" also began to prepare for filming, and the two movies will be launched at the same time after the New Year.
With the box office support of the previous films, the Tomahawk Entertainment film department is now very wealthy, and the combined investment of the two films is nearly 600 million, and it was approved without blinking an eye.
In "Jingwu Chen Zhen", Han Lan will most likely not appear this year, and Chen Zhen's role will be handed over to his artist Fan Wenlong to star if nothing else, and it just so happened that he played Chen Zhen in the last movie. Of course, whether he can give this role to him in the end depends on the performance of this year's Spring Festival file "Huo Yuanjia (Prequel)".
If the Chen Zhen he played in the movie can leave a deep impression on fans, it is naturally the best to hand over "Jingwu Chen Zhen" to him to star, and he can take advantage of the popularity to mention it again. But if the fans' response to him is not very good, then the final starring role of "Jingwu Chen Zhen" must be Han Lan himself.
Han Lan actually hopes to cultivate Fan Wenlong and Fan Wenqiang, after all, Tomahawk Entertainment's movies can't always rely on him as an artist.
Han Lan always believes that the strength of the team is more important than the strength of the individual.
This point, he had already experienced when he sneaked into Chen Zhongqian's house, if his old team was there at that time, it would be done in minutes, and he didn't need to work so hard at all, and in the end, he successfully sneaked into Chen Zhongqian's house by relying on the voluntary help of a black cat teammate.
When An Keke, Fan Wenlong, and Fan Wenqiang all grow up, the overall combat effectiveness of Tomahawk Entertainment will reach a new level.
And now, Han Lan needs to open up a new battlefield, Xuanfan/Xianxia.
This is what I thought of when I left the city of L in the lighthouse country last time to board the plane, and it may be a new foreign cultural export point in Huaguo, and the power can refer to Joseph.
In fact, in the previous life, although kung fu movies opened a shortcut for Chinese actors to go to the international stage, they also framed the image of Chinese people. Basically, when foreigners think of Huaguo, they are very good at fighting and kung fu. The image of Chinese actors in the Beacon Country movie is basically able to play, but if you want to make a breakthrough, foreigners basically don't pay for it.
This is also a very sad point for Chinese kung fu stars in the later period, they have not been able to break through this framework, but the routines of kung fu movies have been gnawed off from generation to generation, and it is difficult to have new ideas come out, and the plot seems very old-fashioned. Gradually, the output ability of kung fu films abroad has also weakened.
This is a lesson, and it is also a wake-up call to Han Lan, taking advantage of the fact that Chinese kung fu is just becoming popular, what he needs to do should not only expand the influence of Chinese kung fu, but also take advantage of the popularity of Chinese kung fu to throw other cultures out, and no longer let Chinese people be framed in kung fu movies.
It is necessary to let foreigners know that Huaguo people can not only fight, but also have other things in Huaguo, such as ...... Flying swords?
Of course, this is just an idea. After all, Xianxia is free from martial arts, and martial arts itself is also a kind of action movie, and there is still some correlation between the two. In this way, it will be easier to rub the popularity of kung fu movies.
The words of Xuan Fantasy and Xianxia are actually very well developed in this world, at least they are quite popular in China, and they are also translated abroad. A lot of film and television dramas have also been filmed, but they are mainly used to make money for the small fresh meat.
The classification of film and television dramas is mainly divided into ancient costumes, and there is no such category as fantasy and Xianxia, which are uniformly classified as costume dramas.
"Costume drama...... Well, it seems that you still have to have a good relationship with Director Zhao. Han Lan pinched her chin and muttered.
……
……
Jinmen, a city that has a lot to do with tomahawk entertainment.
Tomahawk Entertainment's two successive popular movies were filmed here, and this year's third film in Huo Yuanjia's series "Jingwu Chen Zhen" will also be filmed here.
and the advertising MV of Han Lan and the bean seller was also filmed here.
And today, Tomahawk Entertainment's first celebrity reality show "Let's Work Together", exclusively produced by Tomahawk Entertainment, will also be filmed here.
chose the bean seller's self-operated restaurant in Jinmen, that is, the one where Han Lan helped the bean seller shoot the advertising MV last time, and there are still photos and autographs of Han Lan and others in the store. At present, it is already a holy place for Internet celebrities to check in in China.
chose to shoot the first episode of the show here, which also means that he wants to rub off on Han Lan's popularity. Anyway, they are all their own artists' own variety shows, and they don't rub in vain.
The main members of the crew were all dug from Xiaoxiangtai and Jiangnantai at a premium, but the price is not high, and it may not even be as expensive as the equipment. At least compared to forming a movie crew, it is easier for a variety show crew. The so-called experience is mainly the pre-creative planning and the handling of emergencies, and the photographer only needs to be quick and physically fit when shooting.
Many movie-makers look down on TV series, and TV series look down on variety shows. Because in their opinion, variety shows are basically "fool-style" shooting.
Movies and TV series are written in advance, although there may be some small play on the spot, but it will not be too bad, and various shooting techniques need to be adjusted according to the plot, which is very professional and experienced.
And variety shows, even if there is a script, in order to pursue reality, the actors will be allowed to play freely as much as possible, basically just need to grasp a general direction. The last thing movies and TV series want to see is accidents, while variety shows are completely reversed, because these accidents are often the highlight of the show.
Therefore, in order to ensure that these unexpected shots can be captured, most variety show crews will use a "stupid method" to shoot. That is, multi-camera non-stop.
Obviously, this shooting method doesn't care so much about the camera movement and composition, and the shooting is over.
This way of shooting, in the eyes of the filmmakers, has no artistic beauty at all, so go and despise the last link of the chain.
