Chapter 97: It's a Pit! (2/5)
Lin Dog can swear to God, he just asks casually!
A polite invitation is like a polite bed...
I really didn't expect Shen Mengxi to agree.
His current behavior is very much like the one that his colleagues gathered in private and brought the leader to the scene.
Shen Mengxi hated working overtime, and when the work was completed that day, he disbanded the crew.
The crew of "The Great Wall", the actors only shoot for ten hours at most, and there is nothing to play near Xiangshan, so the actors often have dinners, and the blind Ji is...
This kind of gathering, usually speaking, has a fixed program: complain about the leader, that is, the director.
Shen Mengxi himself thinks that he has done a good job, but in the eyes of the actors, it is a bit different...
He treats "The Great Wall" as a project, with professional leaders in charge of photography, scenery, props, art including special effects...
Most of these people were hired from Hollywood, and by the way, many mainland staff were arranged to study with the group...
In their opinion, there is no need!
are so professional, so why do you need a director?
Most of the domestic crews are really like what Feng Xiaogang said: except for the main creator, most of them are migrant workers!
And they don't want to make progress: in their opinion, to become the main creator, either they have a good fate, or they are relatives of the producer, or they are slept with by the producer...
It is also normal for these people to use the experience of their life circle to see things, because in the place where they were born and lived, ability, talent and serious and focused spirit are by no means the only way to success. On the contrary, stealing chickens and dogs, opportunistic shortcuts are the way to survive.
This is the difficulty of Hollywood's industrialization in China, and there are not enough talents.
Many people don't have the awareness of this, they feel that the director decides everything.
The director is really not omnipotent, especially Shen Mengxi, his specialty is text and aesthetics, and in other aspects, he really understands a little...
restaurant, Lin Gengxin asked this question, and Shen Mengxi replied directly: "The Great Wall" is an industrialized production, all the staff, one radish and one pit, do their own things, and let the crew become a whole through the core creative management and control, forming an efficient operation, which is the advantage of Hollywood's industrialization, and it is also a place for us to learn!"
"The role of the director..."
"In the Hollywood industrial process, the role of the director is infinitely weakened, unless you make an independent film, and the investment is also brought by yourself, most directors are just wage earners!"
"For example, for 'The Great Wall', they proposed a lot of directors at the beginning, and I talked to them a few times, and then decided to direct it myself..."
"You're not worried?"
"Outside of the movie, we've done enough preparations..."
Shen Mengxi smiled and changed the subject: "How do you and Chen Xiao feel about "To Youth"?"
"To Youth" is set for August 12, the schedule is still hanging, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (II)" has been released for nine days, "The Smurfs" is an anime movie, and the only thing that can be played in the same period is "Eavesdropping 2"...
The box office of the "Eavesdropping" series is like that.
In addition to the Iron Triangle, "Eavesdropping 3" also added Zhou Xun, Huang Lei, Wu Mengda, Lin Jiadong...
The box office is only 100 million more than the second part.
In the past few years, the ceiling of Hong Kong films has been around 300 million!
Lin Gengxin pondered for a moment, and then replied, "It's hard to say." ”
Shen Mengxi nodded: "It's normal to say that it's hard to say, "To Youth" is different from "My Girlhood", it reflects the youth of the post-70s, at that time, college students generally yearn for a lighthouse country, and people who have a future want to study abroad..."
"yes, I haven't experienced that, so I don't see why..."
"Hehe..."
Shen Mengxi didn't speak, he thought of Liu Xiaoli...
Maybe this is the root of Liu Yifei's flattery!
......
Wei Xiaobao pulled his mother into the room and asked, "Mom, who is my son?"
Wei Chunfang glared and said, "How do I know?"
Wei Xiaobao frowned and said, "What guests did you take over before you had me in your belly?"
Wei Chunfang said: "At that time, your mother was very peugeot, and there were several guests every day, how can I remember so much?"
Wei Xiaobao said: "These guests are all Han Chinese, right?"
Wei Chunfang said: "Naturally, there are Han people, Manchurian officials, and Mongolian military attachés." ”
Wei Xiaobao said: "There are no foreign devils?"
Wei Chunfang said angrily: "Are you a rotten bitch when you are your mother? Even foreign devils also take it? Spicy block mother, Rakshasa ghost, red-haired ghost came to Lichun Courtyard, and the old lady slapped it out with a big broom." ”
Wei Xiaobao was relieved and said, "That's good!"
——Excerpt from "The Legend of the Deer and Ding"
I can't understand the mentality of these people.,Determine whether you are good or not according to your skin and race.,The last one to do this was the Führer!
Everyone knows what happened to the Führer!
Shen Mengxi's mentality is already very normal, if a woman tells him: I will find a foreign husband.
Who do you like to find when you step on a horse, who do you want to find, what is Lao Tzu's?
When it's over, she has to leave a sentence, Chinese men are garbage, don't care about their families, don't understand romance, and they won't be happy with Chinese men.
That's it!
The country is the same, you worship the lighthouse country, say freedom and democracy, then you are immigrating, no, stay in China, make Chinese money, and Nima despises China...
It's called the bad guy!
Why is it disgusting?
That's why!
......
"Co-productions or Sino-foreign cooperative films will become the general trend of the development of Chinese films in the past three years, and they are also the most effective way for Chinese films to go global. ”
"As an important component of China's film industry, as a vibrant industry model, it carries the Chinese dream of Chinese films such as cross-border expeditions, cross-cultural communication, moving towards a film power, creating artistic and cultural peaks, and going to the world stage. ”
"The Chinese and Korean films of "Twenty Years Old Again" and "Big Man" and the Chinese and American films of "Shark Beach" have successfully achieved a sense of down-to-earth customization in the differentiated market and reduced the common unsuitability of co-productions. Effectively open up the production resources of the two countries' top creators, and leverage the synergy and amplification effect of the film fan markets of the two countries..."
Back at the hotel, Shen Mengxi typed in 'co-production' in Du Niang, and then a bunch of beautiful words.
By the way, several projects of the Dream Creek company are enumerated...
Jinnima is speechless!
These projects can succeed because their trader is called Shen Mengxi.
Not all projects can be successful.
Then type in The Last War.
Search for news: Sino-US co-production "The Last War" was launched, Cage joined Tang Wei or starred...
That's it?
Then look down: "The Three Hundred Spartan Warriors" producer Mark Canton is the film's executive producer...
If you look closely, there is not even a photo of him, it is just a message...
Got it...
This is to emulate Shi Jianxiang - President Shi has come up with a strange combination of director Mel Gibson and Li Qiankuan...
It's about painting cakes and telling stories!
This thing is a bit of a trick, when the Russo brothers were invited to direct "Captain China", there was still a closed office - no media interviews...
The text of the so-called agreement is in the basic A4 blue plastic folder...
But people have photos flowing out!
When it came to "The Last War", there wasn't even a single photo, which was too unusual!
