Huayu Zhihao

Chapter 538 Oscar is Coming

In 2005, China's film industry created multiple new highs.

The output of domestic feature films reached 260, an annual increase of 22.6%, and the annual box office revenue reached 22.64 billion yuan, an annual increase of 35%.

荧幕数由2004年的2396块增加到2668块，环比增长11.35%，观影人次由2004年的5600万, 增长到7300万，环比增长30.36%。

In addition, out of the total box office of 2005 billion in 22.64, the box office of domestic films was 13.44 billion and the box office of imported films was 9.18 million. The box office of domestic films accounted for 59.36%. Huaying has completed the annual task.

Among the top ten box office rankings in 2005, 6 Chinese-language films and 4 English-language films.

Chinese films took the top three of the year. "The Martian" had a box office of 2.16 million, "The Promise" had a box office of 1.81 million, but the third-ranked "Mythology" had a box office of 9700 million, but it was a pity that it failed to exceed [-] million.

And "Love Epilepsy" with a box office of 5000 million kept the bottom of the top ten.

In addition to the box office, in terms of awards, domestic films have also made great achievements.

Gu Changwei's "Peacock" won the Silver Bear Award and the Jury Prize at the Berlin International Film Festival.

Wang Xiaoshuai's "Blue Red" won the Jury Prize at the Cannes International Film Festival.

Chen Hao's "The Martian" won the American Film and Television Golden Globe Award for Best Picture in the Musical/Comedy category!
The achievements made by Huaxia Film in 2005 are obviously a natural cumulative effect of various industrialization reform measures in the past few years.

But there are still many problems, especially the competitiveness of domestic films needs to be strengthened urgently.

South Korea produced 2005 films in 70, but the box office was equivalent to 130 billion yuan, compared with 260 domestic films, with a box office of 22.64 billion. The gap is very wide.

For Chinese films, the most important thing is to increase the credibility and reputation of domestic films in the eyes of audiences on the basis of moderate growth in production and scale, and to improve the viability, profitability and competitiveness of film products with foreign products. .

However, according to experts' analysis, various data of the film industry in 2006 will continue to increase, and it will continue for many years.

The fact seems to be true, because it is only February 2006, but the mainland film market has already produced the first movie with a box office of over 2 million. Peter Jackson's "King Kong" has a box office of over [-] million.

At the same time, "Fearless" starring Jet Li, as the Spring Festival file, is also the only domestically produced blockbuster in the first quarter of the mainland. It took over the baton from "King Kong" and began to sweep the mainland film market.

At present, "Fearless" has just been released for two weeks, and the cumulative box office has reached 6800 million yuan. According to this trend, it should be able to become the second film in the mainland this year with a box office of over 2 million yuan.

In addition to "King Kong" and "Huo Yuanjia", in 2006 there were "Full City with Golden Armor" by Guoshi, "Night Banquet" by Feng Dapao, and "I Am Legend" by Chen Hao.

According to the annual box office rankings in the past five years in the new century, these three films will become the seeds for the 5 box office champion.

Especially Guoshi's "Golden Flowers in the City", with an investment of 3.6 million yuan, is the last film before the Olympic Games, and it is the most annual champion.

In addition, Chen Hao's "I Am Legend" has an investment of 1.2 million yuan, starring Liu Dehua, and it is also a sci-fi theme of the end of the world, which also has strong competitiveness.

And Feng Dapao invested 1.65 million yuan, and the transformational costume drama "Night Banquet" is also a favorable contender for the annual crown.

Except for Chen Kaige, the four major directors all had their films released in 2006, which made the 2006 championship competition more interesting than 2005.

There is also Cheng Long's "Baby Project", although Cheng Long has never won the annual box office champion in the Mainland except after winning the annual championship with "Police Story: Simple Mission" in 1996.

But every time Cheng Long's films can always be ranked in the top ten or even top five of the annual box office rankings, they are still quite competitive.

In addition, "The Da Vinci Code" filmed by Chen Hao last year will be released by Sony Columbia in this summer. Although it is an English film, it is directed by Chen Hao. X-factor.

In 2006, it can be said that blockbusters gathered. If we only look at the box office prospects, it is indeed more competitive than in 2005.

Among the four directors, apart from Chen Kaige, the media and the industry are looking forward to who will win the annual box office champion among Guoshi, Chen Hao and Feng Dapao.

……

At the same time, after the Chinese New Year's Eve was suspended, "Wulin Biography" was rebroadcast on the CCAV TV drama channel after the New Year.

Until the finale, the average audience rating of "Wulin Biography" reached an astonishing 10.998%, and it became the temporary king of TV drama ratings in 2006 without any suspense!

After the broadcast of "Wulin Biography" on the CCAV TV drama channel, Tomato TV, Lizhi TV and Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV started the second round of "Wulin Biography" at the same time.

Even though it was already aired in the second round, the combined average ratings of the three TV stations exceeded 5%, which shows how popular "Wulin Biography" is.

In addition to the second round of broadcast of "Wulin Biography", the physical novel of "Wulin Biography" has also begun to be released.

The physical novel is published by Qidian Publishing House, which was acquired by Qidian Chinese.com and renamed as Qidian Publishing House. The first printing of 10 copies has already started to be sold, and an online sales link has been opened on Douban.com.

In addition, the comic group of Haotian Special Effects has also started to serialize the "Wulin Biography" comics on the comic website named Haotian Comics, and the animation of "Wulin Biography" is still in production.

As for Douban.com's customized products around "Wulin Biography", the manufacturer has also been contacted and production has begun.

In addition, Zulong Studio has also started the development of the mmorpg online game "Wulin Biography". This online game is positioned as a "comedy martial arts", which can be said to have created a new type of online game.

Finally, the movie "Wulin Biography", the original crew will start shooting soon, and the filming has officially started!
As a test product developed by Chen Hao's IP, "Wulin Biography" has begun to make full efforts in TV series, movies, comics, animation, games, and peripheral products, striving to explore a new path for the development of the domestic entertainment industry chain!

……

After a day's rest, the crew of "I Am Legend" entered regular working hours again. After finishing filming the scenes at the port, Dong Xuan officially finished filming and left the crew.

Chen Hao is also preparing to start filming the lonely urban survival scene where the hero is alone and a dog.

The following scenes are mainly in the Yu Garden of the Shanghai Metropolis, and there will be several scenes of the Oriental Pearl Tower, so Chen Hao brought the crew to the scene early.

"Hua Zai, today's scene requires drifting. To be on the safe side, stunt performers will do it. Of course, the scene of you driving is also indispensable!" Chen Hao looked at Yu Garden and said with a smile to Liu Dehua beside him.

"Although I really want to try the feeling of drifting myself, but in order not to be NG, I'd better be a stuntman!" Liu Dehua said helplessly.

If you do it yourself, there are not only safety risks, but also the action may not be completed, delaying the shooting, so Liu Dehua can only nod helplessly.

"Okay, the filming can start, you get in the car first!" Chen Hao said.

Immediately Chen Hao took the loudspeaker and said: "Attention all departments, the shooting will start immediately! The No. 3 camera continues to sit in the back row of the car, capturing close-ups of Andy Lau's face and movements.

The crew put the borrowed lions and elk on the street, ready to start filming! "

"Okay, Director Chen!"

After 5 minutes, "The 72st scene of the 1nd scene of "I Am Legend" is the first time, pop!"

When the car started, Liu Dehua had a serious expression on his face and kept looking ahead, holding the steering wheel to control the speed of the car.

Demu Lijian sat on the co-pilot, looked out the window from time to time, and looked at his master from time to time.

In the past, Yu Garden, the bustling magic capital, is now empty on the avenue. After starting the car, I suddenly saw a group of elk passing by, and was frightened by the sound of the car and fled in a hurry.

These elk were temporarily borrowed from the zoo in Modu, and had to be returned after the filming was completed.

Although the car was moving at this time, the speed was rather slow. Based on the experience he had consulted with stuntmen, Andy did a few brakes and accelerations. The photographer took photos of Andy's movements and expressions.

Then, the driver starts changing, puts on the stuntman, and the car starts to really accelerate.

At this time, all the photographers in the entire "I Am Legend" crew went into battle together to capture the scene where the elk was frightened and ran away.

The red coupe was driving fast, the surrounding elk were still running, and there were several cars following quickly behind. Above the roof, the photographers focused on shooting the scene of the elk fleeing.

Dilapidated high-rise buildings, uneven main roads, and overgrown sidewalks, in addition, fleeing antelopes, and Mercedes-Benz sports cars.

The speed of life and death created a strong visual contrast, allowing people to have an intuitive feeling for the scene where the virus came and the whole city died.

"Okay, it's over!" Chen Hao shouted.

After all, it is a stunt performer, drag racing is not a problem, and today these elk are very knowledgeable and did not run around. Of course, the crew has been setting cards outside the only way to force the elk to follow the designated route.

"Okay, change to Andy!" Chen Hao shouted.

The stuntman completed the speed of life and death, and then Liu Dehua had to complete the shot again.

Liu Dehua in the camera raised his gun with a proper expression, but in the end he didn't pull the trigger, but slapped the window hard and cursed: "Damn it!"

"Very good, you performed very well!" Chen Hao was very satisfied.

Although Liu Dehua has always been considered to be not very talented, he did work hard enough, and he is also the best actor of both the Golden Statue and the Golden Horse, so Chen Hao saved himself from embarrassment.

The red coupe continued to run, and the sound of the squeaking tires rubbing against the ground seemed harsh. Suddenly, a sharp turn was made, and the car stopped under the red lightning-like drift.

Chen Hao nodded and said, "Okay, it's over!"

10 minute later.

"start!"

In this scene, there is a scene about the entire street full of parked cars. With so many cars, the price of all of them is too high. Fortunately, Chen Hao asked Yang Qing to contact the second-hand car yard before.

Coupled with post-production special effects processing, there will be no problem.

"Hua Zai, imagine that what you see in front of you is an empty scene full of cars, what do you feel? A kind of loneliness, how to express loneliness, that kind of eyes must be in place!" Chen Hao looked at Liu Dehua said.

Hearing this, Liu Dehua looked at the deserted street outside the window, and tried to imagine it as dilapidated, imagined hundreds of empty cars parked in disorder on the main street, and felt the desolation and loneliness .

Then Liu Dehua got out of the car, holding a gun in his hand, and squatted at the foot of the car, looking not far away.

"Yang Qing, tell everyone to hide for me. The elk is a little scared and cannot graze leisurely!" Seeing the elk that had just been put into the field running away in a hurry, Chen Hao shouted angrily.

After everyone in the production team hid, the elk looked around and saw that no one appeared, so he felt more relieved, and started to eat leisurely.

The next scene is a lion eating an elk, but it is impossible to shoot here, after all, the lion is too dangerous, and Chen Hao can't risk the safety of the crew.

But fortunately, the clip of the lion catching the elk can be found in many human and animal and natural science programs. In post-production, it only needs to be cut and then retouched.

"Hua Zai, your expression should be helpless, a kind of helplessness for the lion robbing your prey, and at the same time showing a kind of irritability that everything is not going well, camera No. [-], the camera is facing Hua Zai's face, come on Close-up." Chen Hao said.

"Okay, director!" Liu Dehua nodded.

After continuing to shoot, Liu Dehua held up the gun, imagining that a lion was eating an elk in front of him, and this elk was originally his prey, and then he aimed at the lion.

But at this moment, another lion came. In desperation, for safety reasons, Liu Dehua had to give up!

Then Liu Dehua glanced at his watch and the sun, and then shouted at Li Jian: "Let's go! Li Jian!"

Then, one person and one dog disappeared on the dilapidated street.

"Very good! The filming was very good, both Hua Tsai and Li Jian performed very well!" Chen Hao praised with a smile.

Not only did Liu Dehua perform very well, but even Li Jian, the animal that has always been one of the three major problems in filming, performed as well as ordinary actors, which is really a shame.

For the next week, the crew will be filming scenes about Liu Dehua's life at home.

First of all, Liu Dehua has to show his strong muscles. Of course, Liu Dehua has undergone several weeks of special training before filming, and now he has no difficulty in showing his six-pack abs.

Moreover, a series of scenes such as making breakfast, eating breakfast, bathing Li Jian, etc. are all Liu Dehua's acting skills alone.

There is no problem with Liu Dehua's performance, but Li Jian is very uncooperative in the shower.

Li Jian seemed to dislike water very much, and when he got into the bathtub, he became a little dishonest, not only screaming, but also desperately wanting to escape, and no amount of comfort could do it.

In the end, in this section, the crew still invited the trainer of the sharp sword to comfort and guide, and it took two days to complete it. Chen Hao can be regarded as seeing how difficult animals are to deal with.

The filming of the crew of "I Am Legend" is getting better and better, and the time is flying by. Soon it will be March, and the 3th Oscar will be officially held on the 78th.
