Chapter 243: A Mysterious Rival
The shooting quality of "Those Years" is good, and with Yu Xian's editing guidance and supervision against the original, the entire film was produced in less than three weeks.
Due to some scenes that may be harmonized, Yu Xian also specially invited the post-production team to make the film into two types, and similarly, asked the actors to record some lines into two kinds to avoid being beaten down because there are too many harmonious shots.
After completing these steps, Yu Xian first submitted it to the film and television review department of Taiwan Province, waiting for the classification to determine the schedule.
The review speed of Taiwan Province was very fast, and a week later, the crew received the rating of "Those Years" - the restricted level.
Everyone almost turned their backs with anger when they saw it.
Good guy, why are we talking about "youth comedy movies" so much, why are they still rated as "*****"?
In anger, there is no other way out. I had no choice but to submit it for review again and wait for the result. At the same time, the mainland version was also sent to the Dragon Label Bureau in the mainland, hoping that the Dragon Label Bureau could label "Those Years" with the Dragon Mark, that is, it passed the review.
Submitting for review is a very painful process, and the crew members can only wait for news.
Of course, Yu Xian didn't really do nothing all day, just sit and wait.
In addition to script writing, online code words, and song rehearsals, Yu Xian began to pay attention to movies released in the summer or around June.
It's been almost a month since the trailer for "Those Years" was released. Because of the popularity of "class handjob" and various strange derivative public opinion some time ago, as soon as the trailer was released, it attracted a lot of discussion.
Yu Xian, as for him, can take this opportunity to search for reviews about "Those Years" on various video websites to estimate the box office and reviews.
"Huh? Released in June?! Suddenly, Yu Xian saw a movie produced by a new director with the same label "youth".
Driven by curiosity, Yu Xian decided to take a look at the video related to the film. After all, this movie is very likely to be released at the same time as "Those Years" and compete on the same stage.
Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.
"Youth Twinkle Dream Chasing Performance Department?" Yu Xian secretly read out the title of the movie, and finally, he clicked into the trailer of the film.
Compared with the two-minute trailer of "Those Years", the trailer of "Youth Flash: Dream Chasing Performance System" is only forty-four seconds, which is a very short and exquisite genre.
"Tsk, it can't be a fake newcomer, it's a real dark horse, right?"
- Yu Xian thinks so, just thinking about it.
The next moment, when the trailer played for the first second, Yu Xian's jaw almost dropped.
The starry background, the magical Chinese that shines with gold, and the music with a strong sense of rhythm......
[This is the ...... Macau Royal Casino XXX?! 】
The next PPT, oh not the trailer, will list a whole bunch of academies in the next second. The compelling golden font was about to brighten up Yu Xian's salted fish eyes.
At first glance, the cast is remarkable – they all come from the country's leading dramatic art academies.
[It seems that the person who came is not good! 】
"In our circle, you have to rely on some big brothers, uncles, uh...... And the godfather! ”
The first line in the trailer appeared, and Yu Xian could afford goosebumps when he heard it.
This line is almost like a three-year-old child babbling and jumping out word by word, which is extremely unnatural. and put aside the clumsiness of the actors' dubbing, this line is also a bit "explicit". In contrast, there are no such positive mocking lines in "Those Years".
After that, there is a flash of movie clips, and then there is the glitter of gold.
On the starlight background, it is impressively displayed: "Eight years of script creation, full Hainan shooting, three years of post-production, and 50 million yuan investment." ”
"Isn't it?" Just wanted to define this movie as a bad movie with no competition, Yu Xian saw this paragraph of Chinese and carefully erased the thoughts from his mind.
It only cost him 10 million to shoot "Those Years", and people often spent 50 million, and he also spent 11 years sharpening a sword, which seems to be not small, not to be underestimated!
The content of the trailer after that is similar to the previous one, and the second is to continue to boast about how high-end and high-end the film is - although Yu Xian never saw any fancy.
"50 million to make a trailer like this?" Yu Xian felt that this film should not be so simple, so he clicked on "Thousand Degrees" and searched for the name of this film.
Soon, a large film of relevant information and videos filled the entire computer screen.
It is reported that this "Youth Twinkle: Dream Chasing Performance System" was not only released this year, as early as two years ago, this film landed in the Stars and Stripes Country, and became the only film in mainland China to be shortlisted for the "Stars and Stripes Country San Francisco Universal Film Festival".
In addition, there is a video of the expert viewing the seminar, as well as a video of the celebrity's congratulations.
Yu Xian first clicked on the video of the celebrity's support.
In the video, popular Chinese and foreign actors, singers, famous screenwriters, and directors emerge one after another, and they all come forward to wish the film a big hit, and they all give very high evaluations. Especially the singer who has a certain influence in the world, came with a sentence: "I wish the movie a big hit, I hope it can exceed 500 million", which shocked Yu Xian and gasped.
You must know that the total box office of the original version of "Those Years" in the mainland and Taiwan Province is only 300 million. Even if Yu Xian's reputation accumulated in various previous works, and comedy movies have not yet come out in this world, he dare not say that he will definitely achieve a box office of 500 million.
Seeing this, Yu Xian was a little confused.
I clearly think that this film should not be a particularly good movie, and I don't even pay much attention to the minimum trailer promotion, why has it been praised by so many well-known people?! Could it be that you have lost your eyes?
With his mind full of doubts, Yu Xian clicked on the last related video.
——"Youth Twinkle Dream Chasing Performance Department" expert observation seminar.
Deputy Secretary of the Party Leadership Group of the Huaxia Film Association: "Why do I say that this is a true and pure commercial and art film? At the same time, its content is to ruthlessly and profoundly expose a distortion of the value of life in the commercial society, and I think every shot is very powerful! Every line is in place! We also discovered the new force of our film, so I finished watching it, and my first sentence said: I invite you to participate in the Golden Rooster Award next year! ”
At the beginning of the video, there is a super heavy blow that hits Yu Xian's heart.
A man who looks at the name and status of the film spoke so highly of this film, and even threw out the words "I invite you to participate in the Golden Rooster Awards next year".
Yu Xian was completely dumbfounded.
This is completely contrary to Yu Xian's expectations after watching the trailer of "Youth Flash: Dream Chasing Performance Department".
"Could it be...... Is this world really the opposite of my previous life? ”
In order to write the chapters of the last few days, I downloaded and watched an epic bad movie that has been hotly discussed recently...... emmmmm: I think you've guessed it......
