Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 219 An Unprecedentedly Prosperous Movie Business

After shaking off a few brown candies, Fang Ziheng personally sent Han Dong and Chen Yu to the car.

Director Han has been so busy recently that he doesn't touch the ground. Being able to join us today is definitely giving him enough face.

Director Han followed Fang Ziheng's suggestion for the script of "The Founding of the Party" and made two parts, the first part of which is already in post-production.

After watching part of the first film, Director Han directly set the file for June, ambitious to grab the title of summer file champion.

Most of the second film has also been filmed. According to Chen Yu, there are two choices, one is to release it on the National Day or Lunar New Year in October, and the other is to put it in next summer.

One book a year, completely staggering the time.

Beside the Audi A6, Fang Ziheng helped open the door.

Director Han looked at him with a smile and asked, "Director Fang, do you want to make a movie with a pure theme?"

"Of course I want to!" Fang Ziheng blurted out with a startled expression.

Who doesn't want to make a movie with the main theme!

He suggested to Han Dong that "The Founding of the Party" is divided into two parts, and he was waiting for this opportunity.

In his mind, the main theme movie must be shot, and it must be shot well, with highlights and wonderful shots.

Originally, "Changjin Lake" was his first choice.

After all, this movie is not only a commercial blockbuster, but also a theme movie. It needs box office to have box office, and word of mouth to have reputation.

But before the release of "Wolf Warrior 2" and the thorough development of the mainland market, it would be a waste to produce "Changjin Lake" in advance, which belongs to the kind of cruel waste.

In his prediction, "Changjin Lake" can only play its greatest role when it is released 17 years later.

In other words, he has to wait six or seven years before he can actually direct the main theme movie.

Unexpectedly, Han Dong actually handed over an olive branch at this time.

"Alright, it's still Fang Daoming's reasoning!"

Han Dong laughed loudly, patted Fang Ziheng on the shoulder, and said that he was right.

Chen Yu next to him also laughed, and took the opportunity to say something: "Director Fang, Director Han intends to create a trilogy, building the country, building the party, and building the army!"

""The Founding of an Army"!"

Fang Ziheng understood in seconds, and called out the name of the last part of the trilogy.

"Army Building"!
A movie that seems to have a bad reputation after its release, but is actually very good.

To be honest, the so-called word of mouth is not good, and I don't know who is behind it.

Fang Ziheng has personally watched "The Founding of an Army" twice. From the perspective of the plot alone, it is absolutely smooth and smooth, with almost no flaws.

The only uncomfortable thing is that the casting is not rigorous enough, and some characters deviate from the prototype.

But how should I put it, after all, when the great people were young, what they wanted was that energy.

That kind of courage to dare to change the sky for the sun and the moon, that kind of pointing the country, the dung, the vigorous vitality of thousands of households.

Everyone is young!
Chinese people are accustomed to watching the performances of the older generation of artists and many special actors. When faced with "The Founding of an Army", their first reaction was to criticize the actors, but they ignored the plot of the movie.

After the movie was released, waves of sunspots came one after another.

Ha ha!

Fang Ziheng would not believe that there were no 50 people walking in it.

Han Dong bent down and sat in the car, opened the window and waved his hands: "Director Fang is busy with "Looking for the Dragon" first, and we will have a good chat when the first and second parts of "The Founding of the Party" are finished."

"Understood, I obey the call of the organization!"

Fang Ziheng nodded solemnly, and expressed his opinion to Director Han again.

Chen Yu also got into the co-pilot, and once again sent his blessings: "Director Fang, I wish the filming of "Looking for the Dragon" a smooth success and a successful box office!"

"Brother Chengyu Jiyan, please drive slowly on the road and have a smooth journey."

night.

In a conference room on the tenth floor of the hotel.

All the main creators of "Looking for the Dragon" and the heads of various departments of the crew are here.

In addition, there are two action directors Sang Lin, Yuan Baye, and the members of Yuan's class he brought.

Inviting Ba Ye to help out was Fang Ziheng's deliberate decision.

Hu Bayi, the protagonist of "Looking for the Dragon", is a retired soldier. In terms of fighting, it is best to rely on the style of martial arts in the army, showing fierce real battles.

Among all the martial arts in the Chinese-speaking circle, the fighting styles of Hong Junbao and Zhen Zibao are more inclined to real fighting.

Of the two, Zhen Bullet leans more towards modern fighting, and likes to punch to the flesh, making the scenes tense and exciting.

Hong Junbao prefers hard work when making movies, and every punch and kick can be traced.

Both of them can be competent for the action guidance of "Xunlong Jue".

But how should I put it, whether it is Hong Junbao or Zhen Bullet, both of them like to show their own ideas and reflect their action styles.

Instead of accommodating the director, listen to the director's command.

Yuan Baye is different. As a bigwig in the Hong Kong circle, he has been working in action movies for decades. In terms of action guidance, he is second to none in the entire Chinese-speaking circle, and he is also a first-class master in the world.

What's even more commendable is that Baye Yuan has many changes. He can not only create an elegant and chic style like "Once Upon a Time", but also design a one-hit-kill fighting style in "Black Man".

Master Xing is such a difficult character, and it is quite a pleasure to work with Baye Yuan.

on the main seat.

Fang Ziheng looked serious, straight to the point and set the tone.

"Everyone, the filming will officially start in about ten days, time is tight, you have to move quickly.

The actors will start studying the script tomorrow, and Sister Jia Ling and Liu Ye will take turns organizing it. "

"Every department cross-checks and conducts on-the-spot inspections of the shooting locations every two days to check for deficiencies and make up for omissions. The department heads must be aware of every link."

After the general keynote was finished, Fang Ziheng looked at Yuan Heping on the left, and said with a smile, "Baye, please help them with a short-term special training, first practice fighting moves."

"No problem, what is Director Fang's request?"

Yuan Baye answered with a smile, and glanced at Liu Ye, Liu Qianqian, Huang Bo and Zou Zhaolong.

According to the script, the four have the most action scenes in the movie.

When Liu Ye and the others heard this, they quickly sat up straight, picked up their pens and prepared to record.

"Four standards!"

Fang Ziheng made a gesture, pointing at the four of them one by one: "Liu Ye and Brother Zhaolong's movements are more realistic and powerful, and they must have the aura of a field army fighting."

"Sissy plays Staff Officer Yang, who inherits the legacy of her grandfather's partridge whistle. Her movements are light and her movements are good. When she raises her hands, she coincides with the gossip of Tiangang.

Her fighting with the picture of Hu Bayi using a compass to determine Feng Shui is one of the essence of "Looking for the Dragon". "

"Huang Bo, Xia Yu, Guo Jingfei and others take the light comedy, coincidence and absurd route. The fighting scenes seem to be full of momentum, but in fact they are not very harmful. They belong to the category of injuring the enemy one thousand and self-injury five hundred."

"Jiang Shuying plays the third character among the villains. Her action style tends to be a killer. Every move is ruthless, vicious, and deadly!"

After finishing speaking, Fang Ziheng looked at Yuan Baye, ignoring the resentful eyes of Huang Bo and Jiang Shuying.

Yuan Baye didn't express his opinion immediately, he picked up a pen to write and draw, and then discussed in a low voice with the members of Yuan's class next to him.

10 minute later.

Yuan Baye knocked on the table, handed over a first draft of the action, squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Director Fang, see if you are satisfied. If it is feasible, let the actors practice according to this plan first, and then fine-tune it when shooting. "

"No problem, just do as Master Ba said!"

Fang Ziheng looked at it twice, and made a final decision, giving Yuan Baye enough face.

Afterwards, Fang Ziheng left the stage and handed over the time to Concubine Lin.

As the producer of the film, Concubine Lin needs to understand the funding direction of the crew and keep abreast of the preparations for "Looking for the Dragon".

Of course, Sister Lin is just starting, and the sub-producer and executive producer are responsible for the details later.

The meeting lasted for two hours.

After finishing the work, Fang Ziheng invited the whole crew to have supper, and the show didn't end until eleven o'clock in the evening.

in the room.

"I'm so tired."

Fang Ziheng was lying on the bed, enjoying Liu Qianqian's top massage service.

Since the painting of "Edge of Tomorrow", except for the first few days of the first month, I haven't had a good rest during this period.

Every day is not writing scripts, dealing with things in the company, or attending various banquets in the entertainment circle.

Busy like a third grandson.

Sitting on Fang Ziheng's back, Liu Qianqian pinched his shoulders with tender little hands, and said helplessly, "You didn't make it yourself. "Looking for the Dragon" will be released on the Lunar New Year file, and it will be launched next month. Can't you just rest at home?" .”

"Well, it will take a lot of time to shoot this movie in 3D."

Fang Ziheng pushed his butt, turned his head sideways and said.

Liu Qianqian swayed up and down, and slapped him coquettishly: "Don't move, just lie on your stomach."

She moved her body, pressed on Fang Ziheng's thigh, and massaged his back and waist.

"Director Hao Yi sent me the script of Xiu Chun Dao, asking me to play the lead female Zhou Miaotong, what do you think?"

"What do you think? You can act if you want!"

"Zhou Miaotong is powerless, I don't want to act."

The young lady is very angry and despises the role of Zhou Miaotong.

Fang Ziheng didn't persuade her either. With her current position, it's really inappropriate to play a weak woman in ancient costume.

"If you don't want to act, you have to tell Hao Yi in time, don't delay him, and miss the time for re-selection."

"Don't worry, I'll reply to Director Hao tomorrow."

Liu Qianqian giggled, patted Fang Ziheng's buttocks, stood up and said, "Come on, turn over, I'll massage your head."

The bath towel was spread on the little sister's lower abdomen, Fang Ziheng lay on his back, closed his eyes and enjoyed the intimate massage again.

The film market was tepid in March.

In addition to the aftermath of the Spring Festival, there is only one "Guanyin Mountain" starring Fan Bingjie, which is very popular.

Of course, it's just that the heat is good.

The box office was 2600 million in the first weekend, which can only be said to be passable.

However, the reputation of the film is quite good. Sister Fan Bing turned around with "Guanyin Mountain", won the Tokyo Film Festival Best Actress Award, and firmly held the title of Queen of Fashion.

The phrase "I don't marry a wealthy family, because I am a wealthy family" also spread, and the maid Jinsuo of the year successfully won the title of "Fan Ye".

The hottest news during this period is not "Guanyin Mountain", nor Fang Ziheng's "Looking for the Dragon", but the 'Queen of Weibo' Yao Dazui.

Yao Dazui publicly announced the divorce on Weibo, netizens and her Weibo fans took turns to get off the stage, caught Ling Suxiao in front of her and scolded her so much that she almost kicked her out of the entertainment circle.

In addition, Xie Tingfeng and Zhang Baizhi also reported that the media divorced.

Three years after the photogate incident, this pair of golden boys and girls who were once favored by countless people finally came to an end.

Speaking of which, every year from late March to early April, there will be some major news and big melons in the entertainment industry.

It's such a coincidence that I come back every year and never miss.

Because this time point coincides with the annual off-season of film and television, the film industry is also commonly known as the unpopular schedule.

Some smart celebrities and entertainers will choose to make troubles at this point in time, so as not to compete for popularity, but also to make a smooth transition and fill the gap in entertainment news, killing two birds with one stone.

At the same time, major film and television companies have also started their annual plans, stepped up preparations for filming, and strived to catch up with the summer, National Day, and Lunar New Year releases.

Among the many film and television companies, the annual plans of Huayi, Guangxian, and Bona are more interesting.

Guangxian directed six films this year, "Painted Wall", "Sleepwalking 3D", "Tongque Terrace", "Quick Angel", and "Hongmen Banquet".

Bona didn't hesitate at all, and made nine consecutive master-controlled projects.

"Sister Tao", "The Great Magician", "Big Shanghai", "Hedong Lion Roar 2", "Hello!Mr. Tree", "Eavesdropping", "October Siege", etc.

Huayi was the most arrogant, announcing twelve films in one breath, including "42", "The Prequel of Di Renjie", "The Twelve Zodiac Signs", "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", "Tai Chi", and "General Yang".

The production lineup includes directors and producers from both sides of the strait, such as Feng Pants, Uncle Long, Old Monster Xu, Huang Baiming, Chen Guofu, Feng Delun, and Xing Ye.

Galloping Horse has made steady progress and announced the new film "Golden Robbery" directed by Xu Zheng and supervised by Ning Hao.

Yang Zi of Juli Film and Television also followed suit, spending huge sums of money to create "Legend of the White Snake" for Huang Shengyi, and invited Jie Ge to help out.

There are also Dadi Cinemas and Wanda Film and Television, who have also tried their hand at film production.

The total box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" has greatly stimulated the film and television companies in the entertainment industry, and it has also given the capital behind the scenes an opportunity to make a lot of money.

All of a sudden, Huaguo's film industry flourished unprecedentedly, entering an era when a hundred flowers bloomed.

The data from February 11 alone shows that more than 2 film and television companies have registered and set foot in the film field.

It seems that as long as the film is successfully approved and two famous actors are brought in, it will be able to go to the front of the theater.

.........

3 month 18 number.

"Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate", which is controlled by Hengyu Media, China Film and Bona participated in the investment, officially launched.

Film Hengyu has a 55% share, China Film and Bona each have a 20% share, and Mr. Xu, as a director, gets a 5% share of the mainland box office.

Hua Yi also had the idea of ​​"Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate". After Fang Ziheng asked Mr. Xu, he flatly rejected Wang Zhongjun.

In the words of Mr. Xu, Wang Zhonglei likes to fill the crew with people and is very displeased. He even finds some vases with no acting skills to appear on the stage, which is annoying to death.

This time the leading actor in the movie didn't use Brother Jie, it was too expensive, a salary of [-] million would scare people to death.

Fang Ziheng hand-picked Deng Chao and Zeng Li as the male and female leading roles, playing Zhao Huaian and Ling Yanqiu.

The big villain still chooses Chen Kun, his flamboyant character is extraordinarily feminine and stunning enough.

After deciding on the three leading actors, Fang Ziheng didn't care anymore, and let Old Freak Xu choose other roles.

He only had one request, to shoot according to the refined script, and leave the post-production special effects to Tiangong Yicai to control.

After "Di Renjie", Mr. Xu plunged into the confusion of special effects. Fang Ziheng was worried that he would go back to the old way, and dared not give him the decision-making power in the later stage of the film.
