"May I ask Director Fang, what are the themes of the six new films, and will they all be launched this year and released this year?"

"Director Fang, are the directors of two of the new films Baoqiang and Huang Bo?"

"Director Fang, in previous years, Hengyu Media had at least 10 new films at the beginning of the year, why are there so few this year?"

"When will "Immortality" be completed, and have you ever thought about opening a new film?"

Listening to the gossip of questions, Fang Ziheng's head swelled.

He took two steps back, pressed down with one hand, and said loudly: "Don't get excited, let's be quiet first, come one by one, since you invite all media friends to come over, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer, don't worry, okay?" ”

Cut..

Fool, when did you give our reporter a satisfactory answer to the new film press conference.

The reporters pursed their mouths and their faces were dissatisfied, but their bodies were very honest, and they obediently withdrew the microphone and returned to their respective seats.

Immediately, Fang Ziheng beckoned to the left side of the stage.

The door on the left side of the stage was pushed open, and a group of young men and women wearing sweatshirts and caps appeared on the stage, carrying the posters of the six new films.

Each of the six new films has two crew members wearing the crew's overalls and jackets for each of the six films.

"Havoc in Tianzhu".

"A Good Show".

"The Wandering Earth".

"Romance of the Dragon and Snake".

"The elixir of the ghost blowing the lamp".

"Why Mo Shengxiao".

Six posters, one word at a time, caused another commotion in the audience, and white lights flickered wildly.

The reporters took pictures of the posters from all angles, for fear that they would be carried down by the staff if they were too late.

It's good, that's what you want.

Fang Ziheng smiled slightly, flicked the microphone with his knuckles, and said in a condensed voice: "Next, I invite six directors to make a shining appearance to reveal the new films they have filmed for everyone!" ”

Crash

Bang bang bang..

Bang bang bang..

Facing endless applause, Baoqiang, Huang Bo, Guo Fan, Wen Muye, Wu Ershan, and Su Lun appeared on the stage and appeared in front of the stage.

Fang Ziheng beckoned, and sat down at the table with the six people, and the six posters were also carried behind the six people.

One pair for each person, corresponding to the movie they filmed.

suddenly

The sharp-eyed reporter finally discovered the blind spot, his pupils shrank sharply, and his mouth grew and exclaimed: ", "The Wandering Earth", isn't that the same name of Da Liu?" ”

"What, that's science fiction!"

"It's not just sci-fi, a hardcore sci-fi blockbuster on the cliff!"

"Directed by Guo Fan, day.. Can he do it? ”

As the reporter exclaimed, other people in the audience also found the breaking point and subconsciously complained about the ink.

On the stage, Guo Fan heard someone questioning, his face suddenly turned dark, and he glared at the reporter fiercely.

You can't speak, how can a man say he can't!

"Huh.. Looks like you've found out. ”

Fang Ziheng sat in the center of the main seat, pinched the microphone and smiled, turned sideways and pointed to Guo Fan and the poster behind him.

"Yes, Hengyu Media is preparing a science fiction movie "The Wandering Earth" adapted from Da Liu's name of the same name, with an initial investment of 450 million, and the director of the film is Guo Fan."

450 million!

It's still a preliminary investment, this Nima is real!

The reporters were excited, and they stood up again, wanting to ask questions again.

Fang Ziheng immediately handed the microphone to Guo Fan on the side, not giving them a chance.

Guo Fan took the microphone, slowly got up in the eyes of everyone, forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, looked at the audience and said loudly: ""The Wandering Earth" is a science fiction by Liu Cixin, which tells the thrilling journey of human beings who decided to take the earth out of the solar system and go to Proxima Centauri in order to escape the catastrophe that the sun is about to become a red giant.

The story is divided into five eras: the Age of Brakes, the Age of Escape, the Age of Wandering I, the Age of Wandering II, and the Age of the New Sun. ”

"Here, I want to emphasize that the film will not be shot as it is, we will set the time in 2075.

In 2075, the Jupiter crisis, the movie roughly tells the story of the planetary engine failure that makes the earth unable to escape the super gravitational pull of Mu Xin, and the son of navigator Liu Peiqiang Liu Qi took his sister to steal his grandfather's transport car to the ground and drag racing, just happened to meet the planetary engine to stop cooking, and finally joined the global rescue to save the earth together. ”

Guo Fan talked eloquently, and the more he spoke, the more confident he became, sometimes explaining his creative ideas, and sometimes telling about the plot ideas.

At the back of the stage, a large screen lights up, revealing high-tech concept drawings of the film.

This time, Hengyu Media did not hide anything, not only publicized the project of "The Wandering Earth" with great fanfare, but also publicly revealed the plot and concept map of the movie.

The copyright has arrived, and Fang Ziheng and Guo Fan are not afraid of their peers cutting off their beards, or stealing ideas and following the trend.

Sci-fi films are not so easy to pirate and follow the trend, without two or three hundred million investment foundations, shooting sci-fi films is nonsense, not to mention insiders, the public and fans are the first to disbelieve it.

Really...

Hearing Guo Fan's story, the reporters immediately extinguished the idea of doubt, and the so-called experts knew if there were any as soon as they went out.

Guo Fan's thoughts, shooting concepts, and the blazing light in his eyes all made everyone excited and excited.

As journalists in the entertainment industry, film and television industry, they more or less understand the production process of a movie.

Guo Fan's seriousness adheres to the concept of Hengyu Media to create high-quality content, and adheres to the ingenuity of the older generation of filmmakers to make movies with heart.

No matter how exaggerated they expressed themselves and touted the trampling after they went back, at this moment, they were all infected by Guo Fan's elaboration.

are all Chinese, if Chinese science fiction movies can really rise, as a supernumerary member of the industry, they can also be proud.

Of course.

If "The Wandering Earth" hits the street and Guo Fan doesn't shoot it well, it will be another accident.

Their group of uncrowned kings will let Guo Fan know what it means to pretend to be forced to be struck by lightning.

Now, I'll believe you once!

………

After Guo Fan, it was Wen Muye's turn and Wu Ershan, and the two of them successively published their creative ideas for "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" and "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Elixir".

Wen Muye is okay, after all, he has directed the "Manslaughter" series, "National Security 1", and "Detective Chinatown 2", and has become another rising director in the Chinese film industry.

This time, he directed the national art theme "Romance of the Dragon and Snake", and was escorted by five giant film and television companies, Hengyu, Huayi, Bona, Guangxian, and Wanda Pictures, as long as the film level is qualified, there is almost no need to worry about failure at the box office.

The only thing to worry about is whether Wen Muye can shoot the taste of national arts and create a sense of martial arts.

Reporters are more worried about "Ghost Blowing the Lamp: The Elixir", or like questioning Guo Fan just now, they also questioned Wu Ershan.

This kind of doubt is not worried about Wu Ershan's lack of ability, but about whether the other party can make a second part that is satisfactory to the public on the basis of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Looking for the Dragon".

After all, the director of the first part is Fang Ziheng!

Yuzhu is in front, and the public is looking forward to the second part even more, not to mention surpassing the first part, it's not worse.

Wu Ershan also knows everyone's doubts about him, but he is full of confidence, and he talks about the concept of film creation and the artistic conception of the picture at his fingertips, completely like an old driver.

Next to him, Fang Ziheng smiled and said nothing, quietly watching Wu Ershan change the opinion of the reporters on the scene little by little.

In the last life, after directing "Painted Skin 2", Wu Ershan set his sights on "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", which can be called the leader of Chinese magic and fantasy movies.

In addition, Wu Ershan also spent 3 billion to shoot the Fengshen trilogy movie.

If he doesn't have a few brushes, which film and television company would dare to invest!

Subsequently, Su Lun, Baoqiang, Huang Bo, and the three of them also talked about the synopsis of the story of the film.

The actors of these three movies have been selected, and it won't be long before they start filming, and they are not afraid of being robbed by others.

Near noon, Hengyu Media invited reporters to have lunch at the hotel, and the press conference ended at two o'clock.

On the Internet, reporters have already publicized the ready-made situation of the press conference, and there was a lot of uproar.

Countless science fiction fans, ghost blowing lamp fans, and dragon and snake romance fans went berserk, and they came to the Weibo theme in a swarm.

", I'm not dreaming, Hengyu Media is going to adapt Da Liu's "The Wandering Earth"?"

"450 million investment, the investment is not small, but it is too difficult, I hope Guo Fan will shoot well, don't mess up Da Liu's works!"

""The Wandering Earth" is properly hard science fiction, except for Fang Ziheng's "Edge of Tomorrow" in China, this is the second real science fiction movie, right?"

"No, no, Shenji's "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" is really about to start filming, who will play Tang Zichen, she is my beloved, I must choose a good actor!"

"Relax, female characters are easy to find, beautiful, temperamental, and can play, but it is Wang Chao's grade, it is difficult to find a suitable actor!"

"Nima.. The second part of "Ghost Blows the Lantern" is finally here, and the flowers that Lao Tzu is waiting for are all gone! ”

"Fang Lao Liu doesn't direct, but he changes to Wu Ershan, can he do it?"

"After reading Wu Ershan's resume, I feel very powerful, this guy is the director of "Painted Skin 2"."

"Haha.. I laughed, Baoqiang and Huang Bo are also going to be directors, is the threshold for being a director so low now? ”

"What is Fang Ziheng doing, the company has so many signed directors, how can Baoqiang and Huang Bo be on the list, even if Hengyu's film director has no schedule, what about those TV directors, aren't they better than two comedians?"

"Don't make noise, let's discuss "The Wandering Earth", I still think it's too difficult to shoot now, and I'm worried that the shooting technology can't keep up."

"The film and television base built by Hengyu can meet the shooting of most science fiction films, and the special effects are brilliant in Tiangong, this company is the only company in China that is comparable to world-class special effects, I am not worried about shooting technology and special effects, I am only worried about whether Guo Fan can tell the story well, by the way, who is the screenwriter?"

"Quack.. There are a lot of screenwriters in "The Wandering Earth", the first name is Da Liu, the second is Guo Fan, the third party Ziheng, and the fourth Hengyu Literary Screenwriting Department! ”

"That's okay, with a total investment of 450 million, as long as you shoot it well, the cliff is worth looking forward to."

"It's enjoyable, it's really enjoyable today, "The Wandering Earth" and "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" are going to be made into movies, plus "Ghost Blowing the Lamp: The Elixir", there will be at least three movies worth looking forward to next year!"

"Wrong, it's four, and Xing Ye's "Mermaid"!"

"Five, and Fang Ziheng's "Immortality"!"

"Fart, "Immortality" will be released at the end of this year, and you will move the movie next year?"

Fans, science fiction fans, movie fans, thousands of netizens are extremely excited and join the discussion.

The number of posts discussed was like heavy snowfall, layered on top of each other, and the number of posts exceeded one million in just a few hours.

Among the three movies, "The Wandering Earth" and "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Elixir" are the most eye-catching.

One is a science fiction film with a huge number of fans.

Although the writer Da Liu has not yet won the Hugo Award, he is the most well-known science fiction writer in China, and is regarded as the first person in domestic science fiction by many science fiction fans.

The fame of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is not small at all, or even greater, with the blessing of the TV series, and the first movie, it has accumulated tens of millions of viewers.

After more than two years, the second part finally started filming, how not to be excited.

On the contrary, it is the new film of Baoqiang, Huang Bo, and Su Lun, and there is not much audience discussion, or the popularity is forced down by the first three films.

Only when the movie is released can it really burst into a strong momentum.

Hengyu is such a big battle, not to mention netizens, major film and television companies are also sideways.

In addition to the few companies that participated in the press conference, other film and television companies have inquired about more information, including Alibaba Pictures and Tengxun Pictures.

Ali Pictures, an old rival.

Chairman Fan Luyuan has never been convinced by Fang Ziheng and Hengyu Media, and has always been a frontal hard steel.

Relying on Alibaba to be the backing behind him, he is dancing in the entertainment industry, and he looks arrogant all day long.

No, as soon as he saw Hengyu initiating six movies at the same time, Fan Luyuan's mind also became active.

He looked around at the film director, found Teng Huatao, who had taken a fancy before, and asked the other party if he had any good ideas and ideas.

Tenghua was ecstatic, and rushed to the headquarters of Alibaba Pictures with a few films.

Three

"Dragon Family", "Demon City Fortress", "Three-Body Problem".

In the chairman's office of Ali Pictures, Teng Huatao's face was ruddy, and he said to Fan Luyuan excitedly: "Fan Dong, I think so, since Hengyu Media invested 4.5 to shoot "The Wandering Earth", it means that Fang Ziheng and they both see that science fiction films are in the works.

I think we can also shoot it, "Demon City Fortress" and "Three-Body Problem" are fine! ”

"Which one do you want to make?"

Fan Luyuan was full of interest, took over the three, put "Dragon Family" aside at will, and took the lead in opening "Demon Capital Fortress".

It's not that "Demon Capital Fortress" is more famous than "Three-Body Problem", but Fan Luyuan knows that "Three-Body Problem" is more difficult to film, and the difficulty of filming is two or three grades higher than that of "The Wandering Earth".

He is arrogant, but he is not stupid, if the movie can't be made, Ali's big data is strong and useless.

Facing the inquiry, Teng Huatao brushed his thoughts and said in a condensed voice: ""Dragon Family" is a series, and the adaptation is also a big project, I can't rush it, the high-tech in "The Three-Body Problem" is too incredible, not to mention China, even Hollywood can't do anything about it." ”

"My personal idea is to shoot "Magic City Fortress" first, first, the difficulty of adaptation is low, second, the filming time is not long, and third, the production budget will not be too high.

Don't hide it from Fan Dong, I still need to improve in terms of movies, you just let me get on "The Three-Body Problem" now, I can't do it, I am more willing to shoot "Demon City Fortress" to train myself! ”

I have to say that Teng Huatao is a lobbying talent, and he has the cunning of a literati in his bones.

A few words lightly, retreating as advance, modest and self-deprecating, made Fan Luyuan look at him with admiration.

Compared with Lu Chuan, who brags, Fan Luyuan likes Teng Huatao's directness and modesty.

Especially the last sentence: I am more willing to shoot "Magic City Fortress" to train myself.

This sentence instantly hit Fan Luyuan!

They Ali Pictures, since their establishment, why not take money to practice in the entertainment industry!

Fan Luyuan put it down, his eyes condensed, he looked at the young director in front of him fixedly, and kept muttering in his heart.

"Fang Ziheng can train new directors, why can't I?"

"Besides, Teng Huatao has good experience as a director, and he is not very old, so he has more training value than ordinary newcomers!"

"That's it!"

Almost without much thought, Fan Luyuan made a decision and agreed to invest in Teng Huatao's new movie.

"Fortress of the Demon Capital".

The total investment is 500 million, which is 50 million more than "The Wandering Earth".
