The next day, the school opened, and Lu Ping'an, who was promoted to a graduate student, came to the school on time to report.

When he arrived at the school, Lu Ping'an received a call from Lao Mouzi, and the conversation expressed his gratitude.

Lu Ping'an didn't care much.

It's not for him.

However, Lao Mouzi was quite surprised that he could call.

After a brief chat, he put this matter in the back of his mind and entered the teacher's building.

When I arrived at Tian Zhuangzhuang's office, I knocked on the door.

"Teacher Tian."

"Peace is coming, sit first."

Tian Zhuangzhuang began to praise Lu Ping'an when he saw it, "I saw what you said, and I was bold enough." ”

"Eight minutes of that, hey, nonsense."

"You have to have the courage to talk nonsense."

Tian Zhuangzhuang also believes that Lao Mouzi has encountered great difficulties.

After all, he and Lu Ping'an had a meeting at that time, and the creativity given by Lao Mouzi was very different from what was shown on the spot.

Of course, this is only one of them, and it is more that Tian Zhuangzhuang knows about Western urine.

This can be seen from the tendency of literary films to win awards.

How could Tian Zhuangzhuang, who had lived for so many years, not notice it.

As for what Lu Ping'an said, Tian Zhuangzhuang didn't feel that there was any problem.

Even if there were, as a teacher, he would help attract a little firepower.

After this topic ended, Tian Zhuangzhuang asked: "When will the movie start?" ”

"I'll leave in a few days, and if it's too late, the weather will be too cold to shoot."

"Then it's just a good way to avoid the limelight."

"Sheltered from the limelight? What I just said isn't a big deal. ”

"I'm not talking about this, do you want to go to the Golden Rooster Award in a few days? Let me tell you first, you are now a big tree, and you are designated to attract the wind. ”

"Someone is trying to me?"

"As long as you're willing to make a backdrop when the time comes, it's not a mess of you."

"Of course not."

"That's right, it's better to make a good movie."

Saying that, Tian Zhuangzhuang and Lu Ping'an continued to talk about the graduate course.

For students like Lu Ping'an, it doesn't make much sense to go to class or not.

If you can make a good movie, you can do it.

And Lu Ping'an is not short of topics.

"Brokeback Mountain" is it.

This kind of movie has strong literary and artistic attributes, and it couldn't be more suitable.

In fact, Tian Zhuangzhuang and the older generation of domestic directors actually don't think much of commercial films at this stage.

Lu Ping'an has performed very well at the box office, but there are still people criticizing him in the market, and those who criticize him are these old-fashioned figures.

This is also understandable, using a similar mentality as an analogy.

Just like the increasing popularity of electric vehicles later, there will also be many people who think that cars are not driven by gasoline, which is deviant. It is also impossible for electric vehicles to completely replace gasoline vehicles, which will always be the mainstream.

The analogy may not be appropriate, but the mindset is analogous.

At present, it is a time when it is not clear what is clear between commercial films and literary films.

When commercial films become completely mainstream in the future, the old school will naturally gradually accept it.

In fact, is there really a big difference between commercial films and literary films?

In Lu Ping'an's view, as long as the purpose is to make money, it is a commercial movie.

Only when commercial films are developed, can literary films survive better.

But the current "mainstream" doesn't think so.

What is "mainstream"?

At least in this 00s, the so-called mainstream still does not represent the vast majority of ordinary fans.

So at the moment, the literary and artistic circles' views on Lu Ping'an are torn.

Some people feel that Lu Ping'an has opened up the film market, which is worthy of recognition, and some people say that he has brought a bad atmosphere, what should I do if I watch it for money in the future?

This tear is a bit twisted, both envious and jealous, I want to learn from it, but I feel that it is undignified, I am afraid that I will lose some of the commanding heights, and then I will give you a criticism with my backhand, but I will not criticize it too much.

Lu Ping'an didn't bother to pay attention to it, just smiled and didn't speak.

But now, Lu Ping'an is going to work on "Brokeback Mountain" immediately after "Wonderful Night".

It's a great way to make them happy.

Tian Zhuangzhuang felt that Lu Ping'an's filming of "Brokeback Mountain" was to precipitate and precipitate in literary films.

What is it called.

This is called a return to literature and art.

In the martial arts rivers and lakes, it is called "changing the evil and returning to the right" and "abandoning the darkness and turning to the light".

As a decent disciple, it is of course easier to accept abandoning the dark and turning to the light, and it will even be written about it

But only Lu Ping'an himself knows that he is extremely utilitarian in making this movie!

"Brokeback Mountain" has a production cost of 12 million US dollars, a two-month filming period, and the global box office of the original time and space is about 180 million US dollars, of which the North American box office is close to 90 million US dollars, in addition to a very high amount of various copyright income.

Low cost and high income, and you can also win awards, money in one hand, honor in one hand, and a movie is not too cost-effective.

Of course, Lu Ping'an also knows that there are actually many variables in this, such as the director is replaced by himself, even if it is 100% restored, whether he can win the award like the original time and space.

If you fail to win the award, the subsequent box office and copyright income of this movie will be greatly discounted, and maybe the copyright fee, production fee, public relations fee or something will have to be compensated.

But how do you know if you don't give it a try.

It's only about one or two million dollars in costs, plus two months' time costs, and millions of salaries.

It's not expensive.

However, Lu Ping'an still has great confidence in the whole.

This time, "Brokeback Mountain" and the original time and space rush are the same.

In September next year, it will hit the Venice Golden Lion Award, and in 06, it will hit the Oscars.

When the time comes, the PR team will also look for the original.

Keep all the variables under control.

When the time comes, he really won't get the award, and he will have no regrets.

Therefore, the pursuit of art shows an attitude of no matter the cost.

This literary and artistic energy makes Tian Zhuangzhuang look at it and how pleasing to the eye.

For Tian Zhuangzhuang's attitude, Lu Ping'an naturally likes it.

After all, Tian Zhuangzhuang can represent the "mainstream" better than Hu Qingquan.

His status in the circle is not comparable to Hu Qingquan.

Now he is Lu Ping'an's graduate tutor.

With such an umbrella to support, Lu Ping'an can save too much trouble.

At least those noisy old guys want to spray him, and they have to pass the level of Tian Zhuangzhuang first.

Of course, in contrast, Lu Ping'an prefers Hu Qingquan's attitude.

Hu Qingquan, like Tian Zhuangzhuang, hopes that Lu Ping'an can make achievements in literary films.

It's just that Tian Zhuangzhuang is aimed at the movie itself.

And Hu Qingquan has always been for the safety of the road.

Literary films or something, Hu Qingquan and Lu Ping'an have the same opinion.

It's useless to talk about anything else, just see if you can win the award and how much benefit the award can bring to you.

In his thoughts, Lu Ping'an will be the left-handed box office and the right-handed grand prize in the future.

Straddling business and "mainstream" circles.

Stir up the wind and rain.

Impeccable.

In short, it is best to convince everyone.

He also thinks that Lu Ping'an can do it.

So this is also the reason why after "Wonderful Night" won the high box office, Hu Qingquan hoped that he would precipitate.

After all, the difficulty of obtaining awards and box office is different.

He wants Lu Ping'an to stay awake at all times and do things in the best state.

In fact, Lu Ping'an feels that there is also a reason why Hu Qingquan can't see the potential of the domestic film industry clearly.

"Wonderful Night" won 300 million at the box office, and most people think that it was accidental, and it is difficult for anyone to reproduce this miracle in the future.

Hu Qingquan had a similar idea.

Lu Ping'an expressed his understanding.

The limitations of the times are not something that anyone can surpass.

If Hu Qingquan knew that a box office of 300 million would be the norm in a few years, and it would reach billions in ten years, he might have changed his attitude.

But no matter how you change, Lu Ping'an's plan will remain the same.

Mane and the award are both in hand.

That's what he's for.

"Brokeback Mountain" just happened to catch up.

After finishing the enrollment report, Lu Ping'an returned directly to the company.

He still has a lot to do before going to Lao Mei.

The first is the film project.

The main task of "Brokeback Mountain" is to win awards.

Then it can't be left behind at the box office, and it has to be launched in the mainland.

It is indeed good to get a box office of hundreds of millions in North America, but it is not a disadvantage that it is not in the base camp and it is justified.

So after there is an award-winning movie, there has to be another movie in the mainland that focuses on the box office.

As the saying goes, both hands must be grasped, and both hands must be hard!

At present, Lu Ping'an still has "Kung Fu Panda" in production, this movie is in a hurry, and if the movie is to be completed, it will take a year or two to finish.

In addition to pandas, "Initial D" also has movies for Yan Danchen, which are all ordinary projects.

The box office and awards will not have much eye-catching, and there is no bonus to Lu Ping'an.

It's more just a bonus to the actors.

This kind of project is used as a transition, and it is enough to take a pat and play with it once in a while.

Naturally, the real box office blockbusters won't be them.

So which movie to choose to hit the record of "Wonderful Night", and even blow up the world?

"Wonderful Night 2" is certainly not.

Whether to open the mainland version of "Wonderful Night 2" depends on the overseas box office situation of "Wonderful Night 1".

As I said before, it will be opened if the situation is good, and it will be a case of cultural export, and it will not be opened in such a hurry.

So the next movie is definitely a new one.

Lu Ping'an soon had an answer.

For the next movie, it must be adapted to 3D and IMAX.

At that time, 3D should not be too rare in the mainland, and IMAX will bring a new wave of movie-watching experience.

Everyone watches 3D movies, Lu Ping'an has a giant screen 3D, isn't it cooler?

As the saying goes, no one has me, and no one has me.

Xingchen Film and Television is always ahead of the curve.

And what can be adapted to this kind of movie is naturally a blockbuster with great sensory scenes!

Lu Ping'an felt that under the Pacific Ocean, it was time to open a hole.
