Chapter 215: Found a Treasure!
Sure enough.
After talking about the $100 million special effects investment, Xu Jia continued: "Although this fund is to be used for Hollywood special effects companies, I will add you to it, it doesn't matter if you can't take the lead, let's learn and learn from their film industry experience, this is what I pay attention to." ”
In terms of the genre of monster movies alone, Hollywood's production methods are indeed much more advanced than those of Huaxia.
If a country's film industry wants to stand up, it can't just focus on feature films.
Look at how Hollywood swept the global film market and was recognized by the majority of audiences in the world, and the first to open the way was the so-called popcorn without connotation.
What people pay attention to is a cool, so that you can be stimulated from the senses, and the entertainment is extreme.
In the Chinese millennium, there was also this blockbuster dream.
At that time, blockbusters with an investment of hundreds of millions such as "Hero" and "Wuji" were launched one after another, and even Feng Pants was not far behind, and a "Night Banquet" came.
You must know that in the mainland film market at that time, if it could break 100 million, it would be considered a bull's beep.
Therefore, it is only possible to recover costs by targeting overseas markets.
This is also the reason why many domestic audiences look back and watch these movies and feel awkward.
The audience is not you at all, can you not feel awkward.
Trying to instill the core of Eastern culture with Western values will only create a four-way difference.
From Xu Jia's current point of view, there was some taste of quick success in it at that time, but I have to say that the blockbuster plan of that year also laid a lot of foundation for the commercialization of domestic films.
And what Xu Jia has to do now is to at least catch up with Hollywood in terms of hardware.
When Dumpling and Li Qian heard Xu Jia's plan, their hearts stopped for a moment.
This means that the $100 million cake also has their share, even if it is only a small portion, it is enough for the department to make great progress and transformation.
"As long as Mr. Xu gives me this opportunity, I will spare this life and promise to complete the task!"
Li Qian's eyes were red with excitement, as a leading figure among domestic special effects artists, why didn't he want to catch up with Hollywood?
But everything needs to be funded, especially when it comes to special effects.
Domestic film and television dramas are basically five-cent special effects, not to mention technological progress, it is good if it does not regress, and if it is a little bit of pursuit, the list is given to overseas special effects companies.
This is a vicious circle, without a list can not invest money to upgrade technology, without technology can not receive high-quality orders.
At present, Xu Jia spares no effort to support, and there is a tendency to break this cycle.
How can this not make Li Qian excited, just because he sees the hope of the rise of the Chinese special effects industry!
"You keep your life, you keep it yourself, what I want is your confidence and courage, it's enough."
Xu Jia sighed emotionally and patted Li Qian's shoulder, "The support of funds and projects, I can give you as much as possible, whether you can take this opportunity to make progress depends on yourself." ”
Even if you start slowly, it's better than standing still.
A good meal is not afraid of being late, at least Xu Jia has to sow the seeds, so that there is hope for results.
……
The next day.
Xu Jia returned to the capital alone.
Yang Mi stayed in the magic capital, and she had to hurry up to cooperate with the "Tucao Conference" to record the first issue.
By the way, digest the local notice of the magic capital.
As soon as I sat down in the office, I saw an unruly man knock on the door and walk in.
He still wondered if he remembered that there was such a person in the company, so the man took the initiative to speak.
"Mr. Xu, I'm Xin Shuang, this is my little opinion on "Residual Sin", I hope you can correct it." Xin Shuang handed over a notebook, and the notebook was densely packed with his hard work.
In his opinion, Xu Jia let him get acquainted with "Residual Sin" and give his shooting ideas, which is obviously a test.
Xu Jia was slightly stunned and took the notebook.
He didn't expect the other party to hand it in so quickly.
I flipped through a few pages, and it was all handwritten shooting plans and ideas, which was quite serious.
Xu Jia doesn't pay much attention to the project "Residual Sin", what he really values is Xin Shuang.
Only creativity is a valuable asset for a company.
And the director is obviously the core of creativity.
"I know you, don't be nervous, it's my order to let you be the director, and your book also proves that my choice is right."
Xu Jia smiled, comforted Xin Shuang, and said: "You first tell me why the male number one chose Zhang Yishan, I think the most popular on the Internet is Zheng Kai." ”
In the previous life, "Residual Sins" may not be able to invite Zheng Kai, but in this life, there is Jiaxing in charge, as long as the olive branch is handed out, the former is estimated to be coming.
But Xin Shuang still chose Zhang Yishan, the actor who played the remaining sins in his previous life, which couldn't help but make Xu Jia curious.
"I have seen the performance clips of the two actors, first of all, Zheng Kai's image on "Running Man" is a great impact on the character itself, because Yu Sin itself has a fan base of the original work, and it is also a fixed image, and the two sides are prone to conflict."
"Secondly, Zheng Kai's image is more of a playboy than a ruffian, Zhang Yishan's skin and poverty of a child in Beijing are consistent in temperament, and among the younger generation, his acting skills are explosive."
"The most important thing is that the latter is more downtrodden than the former, I think that when a person is eager to succeed, he can put the most energy into the role, so as to burst out the greatest potential, and as an online drama, I also feel that it is necessary to control the cost."
Xin Shuang gave his own reasons, which shows that he was not unprepared, but made a choice after careful study.
After listening to this series of speeches, Xu Jia had only one thought in his heart.
I've found a treasure myself!
A director who cares about the cost of the project is not necessarily a good director, but it must be the one who is more likely to succeed.
The entertainment industry is a vanity fair, a director with no background, if he wants to climb up from the bottom, he must learn how to make his work profitable.
The directing industry is very cruel, if a film loses money, there is basically no chance to direct it next time.
Only by continuing to achieve success can we be favored and valued by investors.
Controlling costs is a top priority.
However, this guy who has become a hit in online dramas for two consecutive works in the future, obviously the director's skills have not yet fully evolved, and the ideas in the book are still a little green.
Xu Jia thought for a while and said, "In this way, I will invite another director, how about the two of you directing together?" ”
It is equivalent to equipping Xin Shuang with a nanny, who can control the overall situation and help this guy grow.
After all, potential stocks still have to cash out their potential before they can reach the peak state in Xu Jia's impression.
