There is also a chain of contempt in the field of directing!

It's not that you can sell it for money, it's a big director.

Guo Fan's "My Girlhood" is of course a blockbuster, but its genre is a youth film...

This kind of film is entirely text-based.

It has little to do with the director's personal ability.

Let's put it this way, in later generations, many amateurs played tickets as cross-border directors, and what type of films did they choose?

It's either comedy or youth films.

Why?

Because it's not that difficult!

It's the same with "My Girlhood"...

"Painted Skin 3", with a production cost of 160 million, is a special effects blockbuster in the true sense.

Guo Fan...

A director who filmed "My Girlhood" took over "Painted Skin 3"?

No matter how you think about it, it feels unreliable!

Hehe, if you know that after "You at the Same Table", he played "The Wandering Earth", I guess you will be even more surprised...

That's a big production of 350 million.

And it's also a sci-fi film!

......

"When I was working on the first part of "Painted Skin" with Wu Ershan, I felt uncomfortable!"

"No matter how much the banshee goes to the sky and the sea, as long as someone shouts "you are a demon", she will have to kill people and kill her mouth, or lie down on the spot, why?"

"Why don't demons stand apart? In the movie, it's because demons want to eat people's hearts, so they are traitors and kill us. But if Zhou Xun ran to tell Chen Kun, saying that I really don't want to eat you, I just love you! I'll be grassy, the monsters are powerful, and it must not be difficult to modify it slightly, why must it be a cannibal? "White Lady Yongzhen Leifeng Tower", the White Lady has already thought about living a peaceful life from Liang, and gave birth to a baby to Xu Xian, but Xu Xian heard that it was a demon, and turned his head and left..."

"Just aggrieved, do you understand?"

"The Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect followed the male protagonist Congliang, we can forgive, but we can't forgive if we want to be good for the hairy monster?"

Wu Ershan took over the conversation: "We want to do "Painted Skin 3", the fox demon is the righteous party, and the demon catcher is purely full of food and nosy!"

Guo Fan was a little excited: "So, isn't it a bitter love drama?"

"Don't play bitter dramas, the third part, let's be presumptuous, shoot how we want!"

"The setting of the fox demon is infatuation?"

“... There is no need to be infatuated, it is the mentality of the game world, she just wants to pursue happiness, man, but a sparring partner who learns to flirt. ”

Guo Fan added: "Then she met Wang Sheng and fell?"

"What do you think?"

"If it falls, it's not deviant enough, "Painted Skin 2", the relationship between Zhao Bafei and Zhou Xun is very good, I think it can be continued, the fox demon is both affectionate to Wang and Mrs. Wang..."

Wu Ershan nodded: "Yes, a happy family of three!"

"And then, the Demon Hunter is going to break them up?"

“... Yes!"

"OK, I'll take this scene!"

Guo Fan nodded immediately...

"Wait..."

It's not that you can take it if you want to, "Painted Skin" is a signature project of Mengxi Company, how can it be easily handed over to a semi-novice director?

Shen Mengxi said: "Give you a month, you write the concept sketch and storyboard script, and then, I will help you make an appointment with the three leading actors, and you have to convince them to believe in your directing ability!"

“... Convince them?"

"Yes!"

Guo Fan gritted his teeth: "Okay, I'll try!"

He left the conference room with the full script, but Wu Ershan still didn't believe him: "Is he okay?"

“... It's not bad, he met me for the first time, he talked about a science fiction project, and the idea is complete, this is a very thoughtful director, let him try it... Anyway, I'm the producer, so I'm always watching!"

Wu Ershan nodded...

But at the same time, what I thought in my heart was that Shen Mengxi was really awesome!

With an investment of 160 million, I found a novice director who has only directed one Qing piercing film!

......

At this year's Film Festival, Shen Mengxi came.

A must come, and a Dream Creek Movie Night was held at the hotel in Puxi, announcing the film list for the next five years!

The film festival announced the film list, and Mengxi Company is the first time in China!

In addition, there is also the Filmmaker Plan A: strive to use three to five new directors every year, so that the old can lead the new...

This is the housekeeping ability of Dream Creek Company.

Xiao Yang, Guo Fan, Qi Yukun, that's how they came out!

In addition to pretending to be forced, the most important thing is to prepare for listing.

The harder you blow, the higher the market value...

And Shen Mengxi is not bragging, he really plans to shoot more than 60 movies in the next five years, covering comedy, youth, love, oriental magic, martial arts and science fiction...

In addition to horror and color blue, almost all of them were scored!

One of the most striking is of course the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" project...

Shen Mengxi is hiding, and he is finally going to do it?

"Ghost Blows the Lantern" has so far occupied the top three best-selling lists, although the book has long been over, and Hollywood expressed interest in the first year of publication, and then Shen Mengxi said that it would not be sold!

The reporters at the scene were very excited, and Shen Mengxi replied one by one:

"We are ready to spend more than 2.1 billion to create eight "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"... At present, the script is in progress, and the actors and directors have not yet been decided..."

"It will take three or four years at the earliest... Let's do "Walking with God" first..."

"This budget is not high, it is based on the market situation at the stage of film release to make a judgment to push back the budget framework, by 2014, the total box office of the Chinese film market should be around 28 billion, how can the box office of the head work also have 1.5 billion..."

"We think that the 300 million cost movie can try to make a few... Now that the state proposes that China should transform from a big film country to a film power, it is not okay to make a small fuss, and feature films have never been able to compete with Hollywood's real blockbusters, we must vigorously develop the film industry and make more industrial films!"

"Since we have enjoyed the favorable conditions provided by the state, we are also duty-bound to fulfill our obligations!"

"I can't rule out that I'm going to be a director myself. ”

Huayi Huang Zhonglei next to him is very... Dismissive.

His intuition Shen Mengxi is blowing!

2.1 billion, why don't you blow $1 billion?

2.1 billion, how to recover the cost?

Huayi's gang really thinks that there is no way to make movies, the total market volume is here, and there are imported blockbusters to grab market share every year...

In comparison, the handicap in the gaming industry is much larger.

So, de-cinematization is proposed...

Of course, at this stage, it has only been listed, and the Huang brothers still want to give it a go, so they spent a lot of money to make films such as "New Shaolin Temple", "West Wind Spirit", "Happy Magic", "Starry Sky", "Counter War" and so on...

The cost of Starfield, the smallest investment in it, is as high as $10 million!

By the way, Huayi is the first of the five giants to do animation film distribution - "The Legend of the Little Water Tiger of the Old Master"...

There is also "Youth Singing and Dancing Youth", although these two failed miserably and the quality is not good, one wants to create a singing and dancing market, the other wants to create an animation market, and there is still a bit of exploration spirit.

"Dream Creek!"

Shen Mengxi immediately stretched out his hand: "Mr. Huang!"

“... It's amazing. ”

"Where, it's just a small fight, the films we made this year, except for "Painted Skin 2", the production cost of other films plus one piece did not exceed "Tangshan Earthquake". ”
