China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 177 Director Li toughens Wu Baige

Li Muge: "..."

He was already stunned by the conversation between Li Yu and Da Tiantian.

Li Yu dared to shoot "Guandu", Da Tiantian dared to invest money, and made it clear that a hundred million yuan was not a problem.

What is cash ability?

He finally saw it today.

Li Yu himself was a little embarrassed by Tiantian's arrogance. He coughed twice and said, "Tiantian, Wu Baige's "Red Cliff" is divided into two parts, and our "Guandu" can also be divided into two parts. Two parts.

The budget for Wu Baige's Part One is several hundred million, and we don't need that much.

Because a large part of his money for "Red Cliff" was used to make props.

In addition, judging from the currently announced cast list, there are many superstars from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and the salaries of those superstars are not cheap.

We can definitely follow the lead of "Red Cliff" and rent props customized by their crew, and the actors will be selected from the mainland as much as possible.

I think the upper part of "Guandu" could be made for about 100 million.

If you, Starlight, are interested, you can invest tens of millions. I will invest another tens of millions myself, and I will find China Film Group and others for the rest. "

Li Yu didn't think it was appropriate to let the Xingguang Cancan family bear all the risks.

With the success of "First Love", it would be enough for Starlight to invest tens of millions, and Uncle Lu would definitely not have any objections!

Hualiu Company is not without money. Li Yu is a man with a medium-sized net worth, and there is no pressure to spend tens of millions to make a movie.

I believe someone will be willing to pay for the remaining tens of millions when Li Yu comes back from a stroll in Cannes in half a month.

If no one invests, the worst case scenario is that Li Yu can add tens of millions and be done with it.

It's just that the individual risks are greater.

Li Yu is very confident in his "Guandu".

There is such a classic negative teaching material as "Red Cliff".

"Red Cliff" has already told Li Yu where the minefields for historical blockbusters are.

Li Yu avoided mistakes and defeated "Red Cliff" in terms of script and plot without any effort.

Li Muge was shocked and said: "Director Li, if you really use the props from "Red Cliff" to make a movie called "Guandu" with the theme of the Three Kingdoms against him, will it hurt him too much?"

Li Muge felt that Li Yu's operation was extremely damaging.

It is rumored that the various props in "Red Cliff" were customized at a large cost, and they are considered to be very sophisticated and high-quality props.

High-quality props like this that cost a lot of money to create must not be used once and thrown away.

Relevant departments will support major photography studios to recycle these props and then rent them to other crews for use, allowing these props to use their residual heat.

The same is certainly true for the props in "Red Cliff".

If Li Yu wants to use the props from "Red Cliff", Wu Baige will probably be angry to death, but he has no choice.

Even if he made repeated requests not to let Li Yu use the props in "Red Cliff", the China Film Group, as the producer, would not let him.

Li Yu is one of the representatives of the new generation of outstanding directors in the Mainland.

Li Yu has a very good relationship with China Film Director Han. In addition, Li Yu is from Beijing Film Academy and belongs to the "Beijing circle" directors with roots in Miao Hong.

How could the leading national enterprise in Beijing suppress Li Yu because of Wu Baige?
  Wu Baige's influence is not small, but he doesn't have the ability to reach out to the capital to get Li Yu.

A few days later, the box office of "First Love" skyrocketed and soon exceeded the 3000 million mark.

Li Yu accompanied the crew of "First Love" to fly to many cities for roadshows and promotions within a few days.

Finally, what was supposed to come finally came.

A reporter from Hong Kong came to Li Yu to stir up trouble.

"Director Li, you must have heard the response from the international director Wu Baige and Director Wu, right? What are your thoughts and comments?"

The media in Hong Kong are famous for being bold and daring to stir up trouble.

In the past few days of road shows, most of the people Li Yu met were reporters from the mainland. They didn't dare to ask such questions that might slap Li Yu in the face. Hong Kong reporters did.

Now that I have decided to make a movie called "Guandu", I will try it with Wu Baige's "Red Cliff". Wu Baige had already bombarded Li Yu not long ago.

Then Li Yu no longer needs to be polite when speaking.

"Director Wu, the international director? You mean the one who nearly bankrupted one of the eight major Hollywood film companies in the United States!

After that, his reputation in Hollywood was completely ruined. He stayed there shamelessly for several years, but no one asked him to film. In the end, he had no choice but to run back to China in despair? Is this Director Wu?

I remember that Director Wu once said when he entered Hollywood that he would never make another Chinese-language film in his life. It seems that Director Wu could not live up to his ambitious ambitions! "

Li Yu went all out and took off the underwear of this international director.

The Hong Kong reporters opened their mouths in surprise.

Obviously, he was shocked by Li Yu's words.

He had thought that Li Yu, who had become famous at a young age, might fight back, but he didn't expect that Li Yu's counterattack would be so fierce!

Just put it out in the open that Wu Baige returned to China after failing to survive in Hollywood. This is because he is really not afraid of offending Wu Baige to death!
  "I heard that Director Wu had always wanted to make a movie about the Three Kingdoms after filming "A Better Tomorrow."

Director Wu was particularly interested in the battle in Chibi. I also heard that filming Red Cliff has been Director Wu’s dream for more than ten or twenty years.

Listening to Director Wu, he seems to have done very in-depth research on the Three Kingdoms and Red Cliff!

Coincidentally, I have been interested in the Three Kingdoms since I was a child!

I have been studying the Three Kingdoms for more than ten years, which is about the same time as Director Wu.

Since Director Wu said that I will only make some small movies with a box office of only tens of millions, then my next movie will be in line with Director Wu.

My next film, like Director Wu's "Red Cliff", is about the Three Kingdoms and is called "Guandu".

It is expected to start production next year and be released in the first half of 08. "

At this time, not only the reporters in Hong Kong were stunned, but all the reporters present, including the other creative members of "First Love" except Da Tiantian, were all stunned.

Li Yu is going to confront Wu Baige in the middle this time!

Wu Baige filmed "Red Cliff".

Li Yu filmed "Guandu".

The news of "Red Cliff" has been released for a long time. It will start filming at the end of this year or next year and is expected to be released in the first half of 08.

Li Yu also said that his "Guandu" will start filming next year and will be released in the first half of 08.

This is to stay close to Wu Baige and have a close hand-to-hand combat with Wu Baige.

After Wu Baige finished firing at Li Yu.

Many people thought that Li Yu, a newly rising mainland star director, might have to shy away from the top director Wu Baige.

I never expected that Li Yu could be so tough!

Wu Baige's "Red Cliff" is a large-scale production with an investment of more than 5000 million US dollars.

Li Yu's previous movie only grossed over 5000 million yuan at the box office.

Is Li Yu a little too arrogant?
  How dare you compete with an international director like Wu Baige.

Is he really not afraid of being pushed to the ground and beaten by Wu Baige?
  Seeing the uproar at the scene, Da Tiantian stepped forward and said seriously: "Director Li's "Guandu" is divided into two parts. Our Starlight Company has decided to invest 50 million in the upper part."

Da Tiantian’s words once again ignited everyone’s emotions.

The movie "First Love" made Da Tiantian famous.

At the premiere of "First Love", Da Tiantian's domineering speech made her reputation as the rich flower in the world spread throughout the Internet.

She already said that Starlight would invest 50 million for Li Yu to film "Guandu".

It can be seen that Li Yu is not just making a few remarks, he is well prepared.

He really wanted to toughen Wu Baige.
