Chapter 165
Chapter 165 Zhou Kai’s debut novel!
Lin Qiu came back from his hometown and saw Zhou Kai on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.
Because he has been busy with the Spring Festival Gala performance, basically Lin Qiu has never had time to see Zhou Kai after he returned to Xiazhou
This time Zhou Kai came to Lin Qiu’s house. Without saying a word, he strangled him naked and killed him for a thousand years!
“I blanch! It hurts!”
“He looks like he has a good physique, hasn’t he been hollowed out by a woman from Mizhou?”
Lin Qiu slapped Zhou Kai’s hand away and teased:
Zhou Kai chuckled and licked his lips subconsciously
However, he suddenly became serious and said to Lin Qiu righteously:
“What to say?”
“My friend was in Mizhou and devoted himself wholeheartedly to studying special effects movies.”
“Why do you think this guy is like that?”
Lin Qiu shrugged and said disdainfully:
“Is not it?”
“cut”
“You do not know me”
“Everyone who understands you is your sister”
“slander! defamation!”
It has been a full year and a half since I went to study in Mizhou after graduation.
A lot has happened in this year and a half
……
“I blanch! Are you and my sister Tang really together? I thought it was a scandal!”
“But that’s right, you two were flirting with each other while I wasn’t leaving.”
Zhou Kai put his hands around his chest and said
If you think about it carefully, it doesn’t seem very surprising.
From the first meeting, Zhou Kai, the”love master”, could see the signs.
Zhou Kai is in Mizhou. It is true to learn foreign languages and it is also true to learn movies. There is no conflict.
After chatting about some family issues, the two got down to business, which was about the shooting and production of special effects movies.
Mizhou’s special effects movies have always been the best in Kyushu and are in a leading position, but recently they have shown signs of being gradually caught up by Xiazhou.
In fact, in the previous life, it was the same
You must know that American special effects movies have been developing since the end of the 20th century.
At that time,”Terminator”, coupled with subsequent special effects masterpieces such as”The Matrix” and”Star Wars” series, were already leading the world. At that time, domestic industrial films were only in their infancy.
Then came the Marvel blockbusters and science fiction masterpieces such as”Interstellar”,”2012″ and”Avatar”
Until Lin Qiu’s time travel, the reputation of Marvel blockbusters gradually declined due to many reasons, but even so, it still swept the global box office.
The special effects blockbusters in the Marvel series have a very low threshold for movie fans.
Just grab some popcorn, no need to think about it, just relax and be done with it
The reason why this series is so popular is because it builds a huge superhero universe and realizes the superhero dream in boys’ minds.
Lin Qiu himself is not a fan of the Marvel series of movies, but he has to admit that this is a real box office harvester in Kyushu, and it is also a series of movies that can really break into the Kyushu market and trigger a tsunami in Kyushu.
In the previous life, in China, because the film industry developed relatively late, there were very few special effects masterpieces.
At the beginning, my reputation was lowered by special effects masterpieces such as”Grand Trail”
It turns out that it has been generally believed in China that the special effects technology of the United States is far, far ahead of ours. This is a deep-rooted thought.
It wasn’t until the appearance of”The Wandering Earth” that this prejudice was truly broken
Of course, the emergence of Shanghai Cannon has deepened this prejudice.……
Judging from the effect visually displayed on the movie screen
Let’s not talk about the plot, just talk about the special effects.”The Wandering Earth” will not be too inferior.
In my previous life, I included Hollywood production staff, many of whom were domestic staff.
The reason why domestic special effects blockbusters are far inferior to foreign ones is because the production of domestic movies always does not prioritize them.
Whether the special effects are good or not, the amount of investment is of course important. What is also important is whether the special effects are worth the investment.
In China, most of the investment in movies goes to actors.
“Well-known actors in Xiazhou are paid too much”
“Unless it’s your movie, otherwise……”
Zhou Kai shook his head and said
Nowadays, the whole Xiazhou is like this, but Lin Qiu is different. For Lin Qiu’s current movies, even if they are paid 0, there will be a large number of good actors vying to film them. But if it is a new director like Zhou Kai, Not too possible
In Xiazhou, if you hire a well-known actor or star, the effect will be much better than making a movie in a down-to-earth manner.
There are only so many production funds for a movie. Once the actors take it, there will naturally be less production funds left for the movie.
《The reason why a film like”The Wandering Earth” appeared in the previous life also experienced many twists and turns.
“Another point is investment”
“It has to be said that because of the vast market of Mizhou movies, investment is much more confident than in Xiazhou.”
Zhou Kai sighed
From an investment perspective, almost all special effects blockbusters in Mizhou cost at least 1.5 billion.
In China, an investment of 300 to 400 million is considered a big production, and a film with an investment of 1 billion like”The Truman Show” is even rarer.
Ultimately, it’s because of the Kyushu Film Market
Because Mizhou movies will have a box office of more than 10 billion once they are released in Kyushu, that’s why they invest so much. However, the total box office of Xiazhou movies in Jiuzhou Movie World has never exceeded 10 billion.
Big investment, high special effects, high box office, then invest in the second one……
With such a virtuous cycle, the entire film industry chain will start to move.
That’s why Lin Qiu has to work hard to open the Jiuzhou Film Market, because only by opening the Jiuzhou Film Market can the Xiazhou Film Chain be operational.
In Xiazhou, a film worth 5 billion is considered excellent.
But if the Kyushu market is opened, the total box office in Kyushu may be directly doubled.
“how?”
“Still a little weak?”
Lin Qiu looked at Zhou Kai’s expression and teased
“Nonsense, there must be pressure.”
“I am a new director, and I will be directing commercial blockbusters that cost billions of dollars in investment. What do you think?”
Lin Qiu chuckled and patted Zhou Kai’s shoulder directly,”The company isn’t panicking, why are you panicking?””
“Well, let me make a movie for you first”
“Practice your hands”
“The second part will start the Marvel series. I will draw the storyboards for you. Don’t panic.”
Lin Qiu took out one of the scripts he had written and handed it to Zhou Kai
Script name:”The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years”》
Zhou Kai currently has little directing experience
It’s definitely not realistic to direct a masterpiece right from the start.
This was planned by Lin Qiu and Zhou Kai a long time ago
Chang’an’s low-budget films are always very interesting, especially Lin Qiu’s scripts
A movie like”Those Years” with an investment of 10 to 20 million will lose money if it loses money.
Even if Zhou Kai’s family pays for it themselves, they won’t blink, so Zhou Kai won’t feel any pressure.
Although I learned it after Lin Qiu and the Mizhou crew, I can be a director���You definitely need to have directing experience
“Trust me, it’s no problem”
Lin Qiu smiled and said loadAdv(7,3);
In Xiazhou, I am afraid that only Lin Qiu is more suitable for shooting such a special effects masterpiece than Zhou Kai who has returned from Mizhou.
In his previous life, Director Guo, before directing”The Wandering Earth”, had only directed one independent film,”My Deskmate”, and had never directed science fiction.
Even so, Director Guo still brought science fiction masterpieces such as”The Wandering Earth”
Among the directors of the Marvel series of movies, there are many directors with sparse resumes. The proportion of special effects film directors is limited. What is more important is post-production and story composition.
“OK”
“Damn it, done it”
Zhou Kai breathed a long sigh of relief and his eyes became more and more intense.
Since graduation, Zhou Kai has watched Lin Qiu and Ye Zhiyuan shine more and more brightly. While envious, he can only calm down and tell himself to study more so that he can keep up with their footsteps.
Chang’an’s Iron Triangle is still missing a corner
After getting the script of his debut movie, Zhou Kai went to the living room, calmed down, and started reading it.
Lin Qiu flipped through the Marvel script, which was only in prototype form.
“There’s still a long time, so there’s no rush”
“When filming starts, change the background of the story”
Lin Qiu murmured
Lin Qiu has long planned to adapt the Marvel series of movies
It is to change the backgrounds of several important characters in the Marvel series to various places in Kyushu
“Captain Xiazhou”
“British Doctor Strange, The Magician, Fantasy Crossover Harry Potter”
“Xizhou Thunder God, the prototype of his previous life was the Nordic God of Thunder”
“Yingzhou Green Giant, perfectly suited to its ocean pollution”
……
After a few years, the Avengers and the heroes of Kyushu will return to fight against foreign enemies.
The pattern is definitely bigger than”American Heroes Save the World”
living room
Zhou Kai, who is extremely emotional, seemed to have been included in the script of”Those Years”!
Lin Qiu’s movies are always very sharp
In”Those Years”, how can it be that it is not a knife, and why is it not capable of breaking people’s defenses?
“Woo……”
The script of the movie is not very long. After more than an hour, Zhou Kai turned to the last paragraph.
【On the other side: Brother the groom, want to discuss it?】
【Groom: What discussion?】
【The side: We have so many red envelopes… I want to kiss the bride, but I don’t know if it’s possible!】
【Groom: The bride said yes, I have no problem!】
【Bride: (laughing) OK】
【Everyone: OK! (Clapping hands, gearing up)】
【Groom: Wait! It’s okay to kiss the bride…but! How you want to kiss the bride later, you have to kiss me first. This is only fair! (Pretending to be a joke)】
……
When he saw this paragraph, Zhou Kai seemed a little confused.
Shen Jiayi got married, and the groom was not Ke Jingteng. He could only witness his beloved becoming someone else’s wife.
But when Ke Jingteng rushed up and kissed the groom wildly, Zhou Kai could feel the burst of emotions just from the words in the script!
Once it is shown on the big screen, it will definitely be very tear-jerking
After turning the last page of the script, Zhou Kai could not calm down for a long time.
Turning around, he saw Lin Qiu wearing slippers and staring at him with red and swollen eyes with a smile on his face.
“cough……”
“This script makes me cry so much”
The pain of youth is that girls are always more mature than boys of the same age, and the movie”Those Years” exaggerates this regret to the extreme
Compared with”Love Letter”, stories like”Those Years” may be more resonant with Xiazhou audiences!
After all, who in their youth did not have Ke Jingteng or Shen Jiayi who walked into their hearts?
Especially the classic Lin Qiu style, love it but not get it
The story in the front is so sweet, and the story behind is so cruel!
Even in an era when youth films were rampant in previous lives, this youth film is still hailed as”one of the best youth films in the country”, or even one of the best.
“This drama is carefully directed”
“I am a consultant”
“This kind of low-cost film can be shot and produced very quickly. It can start shooting in April or May and be released in August or September.”
Zhou Kai nodded and said seriously:
“good!”
Although Zhou Kai doesn’t have anything serious to say on weekdays, when it comes to work, Zhou Kai doesn’t dare to be careless in the slightest.
From February to June, Lin Qiu’s main job is to prepare for the filming of”The Yang Family”, so he has some free time.
Once the release of”The Truman” ends, it is expected to start filming immediately
We strive to have it broadcast uniformly on all major CCTV and satellite TV during the Spring Festival next year. Regarding this, after the Spring Festival Gala, the officials have given a lot of support.
Zhou Kai knows that he is inexperienced and has to ask Lin Qiu for advice on many things. With Lin Qiu as a consultant, Zhou Kai can feel more at ease.
But Zhou Kai will eventually become a director in his own right
Lin Qiu and Zhou Kai immediately began to discuss the casting and filming details of the script. After all, Lin Qiu, as the author of the script, should be the person who knows the story of”Those Years” best.
Regarding the actors in the movie”Those Years”, they are quite particular
After all, many of today’s youth films are played by popular actors in their thirties, and their age alone does not quite fit the role.
In this drama, there are only two main actors, one is Ke Jingteng and the other is Shen Jiayi, and the role of Shen Jiayi is very important!
But Lin Qiu and Zhou Kai almost reached a consensus on the casting of this role in a short period of time.
“Qu Wen!”
“Qu Wen!”
Qu Wen
Today Chang An can be said to be the most popular new actress!
After all, others such as Chen You and Liya are all capable actors, and their popularity is relatively low.
Qu Wen, who became famous for her role as Zhao Ling’er in”Sword and Fairy 1″, plays the role of Long Kui in the popular”Sword and Fairy 3″
Her pure temperament is so perfect for the role of Shen Jiayi in”Those Years” that there is no need for an open casting process.
Regarding the choice of Ke Jingteng, Jiang Hao, who has actually appeared in”Love Letter”, is very good.
……
Just as Chang’an’s new film”Those Years” was officially launched and planned for filming, many entertainment companies and actors in the entertainment industry received a surprising news
That’s the news about the”Yang Generals Training Camp”
Lin Qiu revealed during the Spring Festival Gala that he would be planning to film a TV series today, but no one expected it to be in this way!
This made many actors who were initially gearing up to compete for Lin Qiu’s TV series roles suddenly stunned!
It’s not that they question Lin Qiu, but that participating in this training camp is too time-consuming!
Many stars in the entertainment industry are making money every day, and the bigger the names, the more so.
This training camp alone lasts for 100 days. If you calculate the daily income of 2.08 million, you will earn 200 million less.……
In addition, the more traffic and celebrity actors have, the less they like to compete for roles with marginal actors in the entertainment industry, as they feel that they are losing their status.
This is why Lin Qiu said that not many big-name actors will participate in the training camp.
……
【PS: I didn’t expect that Kai Ge’s outline design template was directed by Director Guo, right?】
【I can describe tear-jerking movies】
