Li Xianyun interviewed a total of about 20 directors, but most of them left scolding.

The treatment given is too low.

In the end, only Zhou Ximei and three others chose to stay.

Willing to stay means fighting, and Li Xianyun will naturally give them a chance.

At the end of the month, the dragon was officially launched.

This is a mecha-type sci-fi film, the story is a bit similar to the Pacific Rim, monsters are a must, otherwise what do mecha fight.

But the trilogy can't all fight monsters, &nbp;&nbp;, so the plot is actually the first battle between humans and mechas, mecha rebellion, humans win with difficulty, and then bury an introduction to the invasion of monsters. The second part is the monster invasion, the mecha fights the monsters, and the third part is the mecha wars and mechas, and the monsters join in the fun.

Anyway, it's all routines, there must be differences, and there must be unity.

But beyond the routine, there is innovation.

With Pee, the mecha will be more flexible, with a variety of martial arts moves and even facial expressions. It's okay if it's illogical, mecha monsters are illogical.

Everyone has seen mechas, but they have never seen mechas that know kung fu.

The mechs are flying all over the sky, punching and kicking, pulling up the building as a stick, more superhuman than Superman - don't tell me that the glass curtain wall can't hold up, Lao Tzu can do it.

The outrageous world wants outrageous imagination, giving you wonderful pictures that you have never seen before, fighting methods beyond imagination, stimulating your adrenaline enough, &nbp;&nbp; making you addicted, &nbp;&nbp; this film is considered a success.

It can be said that all the artistic pursuits of Yisheng Media are to express what others can't do, and I'm not afraid that you are outrageous, &nbp;&nbp; I'm afraid that your imagination is not enough.

The ghost town is now overcrowded with crews, &nbp;&nbp; plus the subject matter, &nbp;&nbp; so the dragon chose the full location for the first time.

Not only domestic, but also foreign.

This can't be regarded as Yi Sheng's first time filming abroad, but it can be regarded as the first large-scale overseas shooting.

Therefore, the crew mobilized a lot of manpower, gave priority to foreign countries, and waited for foreign shots to be filmed before returning to China for filming.

The first stop is the country of rice.

The branch established by Yisheng Media and Hollywood has been established, and the company called Baike has made good profits, plus the mecha is also loved by the people of the United States, and the two sides have negotiated the overseas distribution of the mecha film, and at the same time, the friendship of the landlord is also fulfilled here, providing convenience for the filming contact venue for the arrival of the crew.

Li Xianyun also took this opportunity to go abroad.

However, he didn't go as a sub-director - his shots were basically completed in domestic studios, after all, such a large mecha is not easy to carry.

He was going to meet with the people who visited the customers as the boss of the company, and the so-called learning about Hollywood's advanced production process - although there was nothing to learn, the meeting would have been long ago.

In essence, it is still laying the foundation for the next step of film and television going overseas.

Nowadays, the development of Yisheng Media in China has reached a peak, and it is about to touch the ceiling. The next step of development, in addition to the horizontal strengthening of the surrounding industries, is the vertical deepening of the main film and television industry.

And going to sea is an important way to raise the ceiling in this area - Li Xianyun plans to distribute the pet team overseas, &nbp;&nbp;After all, children's cognition knows no borders,&nbp;&nbp; didn't give it before,&nbp;&nbp; mainly to get a good price after the relationship with the customer company deepened.

Han Xinyu was very happy about this, because she could finally work with Li Xianyun.

But she soon realized how unreliable the idea was.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the plane landed slowly at Hill Airport.

The crew of nearly 300 people walked out of the airport and was greeted by a blonde and blue-eyed Chinese who warmly embraced him.

"Lee!" The other party laughed loudly, with a familiar expression.

Shao Xiaochong, the former secretary who was transferred to be in charge of overseas contacts, said: "This is Mr. Charles, the executive vice president of Baike. ”

"Hello Mr. Charles, it's a pleasure to meet you." Li Xianyun politely said a few words as usual, and the accompanying translator translated it in a timely manner.

After a polite conversation, Charles led Li Xianyun to the passage, and as for the crew members, Zhu Chen was responsible for arranging for them to pass, and they had their own arranged vehicles to pick them up.

Sitting in the Rolls-Royce business car prepared by Charles, Li Xianyun said to Han Xin, "I don't seem to have a Rolls-Royce yet?" ”

"I'll buy it for you when I get back." Han Xinyu hugged Li Xianyun's arm and said.

"No, the company just buys it."

"Then there's nothing I can do for you." Han Xin muttered.

"You can learn to cook."

"You want me to be your housewife?"

Don't you hit the snake with the stick, okay? Li Xianyun smiled, and was thinking about how to phrase it, when the executive vice president of Charles next to him said, "Huaguo cuisine is delicious." ”

"Do you know Chinese?" Li Xianyun was surprised.

"It's okay, it's not too good." Charles's Mandarin is a bit hard, but at least he can understand it.

"You should have said it earlier, but I'm glad I didn't speak ill of you behind my back." Li Xianyun said with a smile.

Charles laughed, "We always have to give the translator some work." Mr. Li Xianyun, you have seen some information of Yisheng Media, and we are very interested in your unique shooting techniques. May I ask you how you did that? ”

Sure enough, I was interested in technology again.

Faced with this question, Li Xianyun replied, "I don't think it's important how to do it, what matters is how to cooperate." ”

"Oh, speaking of which, our chairman also believes that Yisheng Media is a promising company. We've heard that you've controlled more than half of the cinema chains in China and have become industry leaders? ”

"It's an exaggeration, how can there be half of it, let's try to have it in the future." Li Xianyun said, "The market of Huaguo is very large, and the market of rice is also very large. If I could, I wouldn't mind buying some theaters in the United States as well. ”

"Oh, that's not going to work." Charles laughed and shook his head.

There is a clear law in this regard that film and television production companies are not allowed to operate cinemas to avoid upstream and downstream monopolies.

But in fact, even if it can, with the urine of the Mi people, they will not accept it - the Mi people are very strong in controlling the media brainwashing, if you let you master the media, then how can we be black?

Putting you in control of the media?

That's a no-no.

Li Xianyun also knew this, so he just said it casually.

"But film and television production is okay, right?" he said. ”

"Of course, that's fine. So, are you planning to expand overseas distribution into joint venture production? Charles was keenly aware of Li Xianyun's true purpose for coming over this time.

"Yes. Yisheng Media wants to break through the ceiling, and opening up the two super markets is the most important step. Li Xianyun said.

"It's not easy, the cultures of the two countries are very different." Charles Dow.

"That's right." Li Xianyun agreed: "But why can the films of the United States sell well in China? Can't Huaguo's films be sold in the United States? Is it really because of a production issue? No, the essential reason is that your thinking and acceptance ability is too weak, and you only believe in your own set. ”

"Is this country-specific discrimination?" Charles was speechless.

"No, this is to state the facts, at least in terms of the understanding of foreign cultures, the Chinese people are very well fed. We can understand some of your content, but ours, you can't. So maybe you can consider designing it backwards. We teamed up to make some films, made in the mainstream way of thinking of the United States, first outside the walls, and then back to China. ”

"Oh, that's a big concession." Charles smiled: "Few people think like that. ”

Yes, Chinese film and television companies rarely think so, they always take precedence over Huaguo's cultural roots, after all, they can only ensure undefeated by themselves first. But because of this, it will lead to limited results after going to sea.

But some films are not.

For example, Director Li's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, from the very beginning, this film was carried out according to the cultural thinking of the rice people, and even the original script was written in English, so the rice people were able to accept it, and then won the honor on the side of the rice country, and then returned to the local market to sell, although the local people watched it and it was like that, but at least the acceptance was much higher.

If the joint venture film wants to dominate the two largest film and television markets on the other side of the ocean at the same time, it must be culturally inclined to the Chinese people.

There's no way, they're just stupid, and people don't understand your culture.

If you don't stick to him, you won't be able to sell.

This practice is a bit ugly, but it has practical significance. Ninety percent of the Chinese culture is mixed with one of the Chinese culture, and the other party is easy to understand and accept.

It's better than ninety percent of Chinese cultural characteristics mixed with one percent of Chinese culture, and the other party can't even understand it.

You say an idiom, it's not even easy to translate.

The reverse example is that the people of Hua Mulan and Mi use their understanding of Hua Guo to make a movie about the story of Hua Guo, the aesthetics do not conform to Hua Guo, the story does not conform to Mei Guo, Hua is not Hua, and the result is rotten to the extreme.

Of course, the best thing to do is to do it in a dual version.

One set of versions for the United States, one set for the Chinese country.

But the double version of the approach is also risky, if you don't get it, the public will think that you are deliberately catering to the United States, and you will fool us again.

This is a great test of the screenwriters' ability.
