China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 270 A certain director: Are you polite?

Li Yu could observe through everyone's demeanor that everyone was skeptical of what he just said.

Zhang Yingmou thought seriously for a moment and asked curiously: "Director Li just said that the final box office of "Avatar" in our mainland may reach 10 billion or more.

I really want to know what Director Li’s basis is? Why did we come to this conclusion? "

"This is the result of the superposition of multiple factors. The first is the big director effect.

Cameron, the director of this film, has directed movies such as "Terminator", "Alien 2", and "Titanic" that have achieved great box office reputation.

It is inevitable that people are looking forward to his new movie.

There are also technological innovations. This is the first 3D movie. It adopts the latest shooting technology and special effects technology, and every minute the picture is full 3D effect.

Coupled with the most expensive movie in history, the first true 3D movie in history and other excellent marketing gimmicks and slogans.

As long as the plot and story of this movie don't stretch the crotch, I can't think of any reason why it can't be a hit at the box office. "

How's your private discussion going? Is there any confirmation letter?

Zhang Yingmou feels a little ashamed of himself in this regard.

Zhang Yingmou carefully considered Li Yu's every word.

Director Han is sparing no effort to bring about cooperation between Li Yu and Zhang Yingmou.

He continued: "It has been spread outside that you two are going to join forces to do something big.

Director Han once again admired Li Yu and came up with a very bold idea: "They can promote true 3D movies and use this gimmick as a selling point to attract audiences into the theater.

The second part of "Guandu" won't remain the box office champion for long.

Director Han definitely hopes that Li Yu and Zhang Yingmou can join forces to make a super blockbuster.

Li Yu's personal judgment is actually the same as the research results of professional staff of China Film Marketing Department.

Li Yu analyzed carefully.

After you two cooperate, we can learn from their successful experience and use the strong alliance of two top directors as a selling point for promotion.

It’s not an exaggeration. With the combination of Li Yu and Zhang Yingmou, it’s easy to attract hundreds of millions of investments.

As soon as Director Han said this, Zhang Yingmou and some of the big guys around him had to admire Li Yu's perspective on things.

According to research conducted by our China Film Marketing Department, a large number of domestic audiences enter theaters for the gimmick of 3D movies. "

With this gimmick, the same effect is sure to be achieved. "

Director Han interjected: “After listening to Director Li’s words, I suddenly remembered a film market research report I read yesterday.

As long as you two nod and give me a clear answer, I can get you any amount of investment. "

Li Yu's perception of the film market is absolutely top-notch.

They finally understood why every one of Li Yu's works was a box office hit.

He thought that Li Yu's analysis was incisive, straight to the point, and his vision was really vicious.

The marketing of the movie "Avatar" is really brilliant.

Zhang Ying's eyes showed deep interest.

It’s not clear to him how attractive it is for Li Yu to co-produce this stunt with him.

Li Yu's directing and screenwriting skills are both extraordinary.

Li Yu's historical record has proven many times that as long as it is Li Yu's work, the box office will be the same.

He is a giant in the domestic film industry, and his status as the number one director in the country is recognized by everyone.

The sparks generated when he and Li Yu collide must be extremely brilliant.

Something inside him was about to move.

But when he thought about it, he felt uncomfortable when he thought that Li Yu would strictly restrict his performance.

After hesitating for a long time, he still couldn't make up his mind whether to cooperate with Li Yu or not.

Of course, an experienced veteran like Director Han could see that there were some minor problems between Li Yu and Zhang Yingmou.

There was clearly a look of yearning in Zhang Yingmou's eyes just now, but it quickly dimmed again.

This shows that Zhang Yingmou is eager to cooperate with Li Yu.

But for some reason, Zhang Yingmou couldn't make up his mind.

After the celebration banquet came to an end, Han Dong and Li Yu avoided other people and chatted alone.

"Director Li, I think Director Zhang still wants to cooperate with you."

He was testing the reason why Zhang Yingmou could not make up his mind to cooperate with Li Yu. Li Yu did not hide anything. He told Director Han the cause and effect of the matter and expressed his firm position and attitude.

“There must be no compromise when it comes to the bottom line, Director Zhang wants to change my script.

Qin Hui clearly killed Yue Fei, the national hero who served the country with all his loyalty.

He actually suggested changing my ending and letting Qin Hui lead the entire army to recite Manjianghong.

After the recitation, Qin Hui was not killed. The reason was to let Qin Hui live to be reviled by the people of the world, to live in pain, and to repent in the world. "

Li Yu didn't want to be ruined along with Zhang Yingmou.

"..."

Dong Han was stunned.

"He really suggested that?"

Such suggestions can only be said to be outrageous.

Anyone in their right mind can tell that such a plot is disgusting to the audience.

However, such an operation is very cunning.

Zhang Yingmou especially likes to create some outrageous plots to create mystery.

This was the case with "Heroes" many years ago.

Can Jian and Feixue have already entered the heavily guarded Qin Prince's Palace.

He had already succeeded, but Can Jian chose to give up assassinating Qin at the last moment.

A few years later a nameless assassin appeared.

Wuming worked hard to gain the trust of the King of Qin and gained the qualification to get within 10 steps of the King of Qin.

As a result, Wuming and King Qin chatted for a while, pulled out their swords, and finally gave up.

Going around in a big circle, it can actually be summed up in one sentence.

The King of Qin cannot be killed. Killing the King of Qin will cause chaos in the world.

It's such a simple thing, but you have to do it in an unfathomable way and pursue the so-called artistic conception.

For this artistic conception, many plots can even dispense with logic.

This is also the reason why people have always criticized Zhang Yingmou's script as too bad.

"The director of this film is genuine, why do you have to make such outrageous plots?

He is a director, why does he have to steal the screenwriter's job? "

Director Han didn’t even know how to evaluate it.

Li Yu lamented: "Many big domestic directors are like this. In the early stages of struggle, if there are people on the crew who can suppress them, they can produce very good works.

When they became famous and their status in the world increased, no one in the crew could influence their ideas anymore, and their works became very fascinating.

Obviously there are too many things they want to express, making the plot of a movie messy and loose.

Audiences criticize them, and they in turn blame the audience for not understanding their work.

All I can say is, it's really ridiculous. "

Director Han felt that Li Yu was reading the ID number of a certain big director.

If the director had been present, he would have said angrily to Li Yu, 'Are you polite? ! ! '

Director Han found Li Yu's words interesting, and he asked curiously: "Then why, Director Li, can you continuously create excellent works that are well-known by everyone?"

"Because I'm different from them."

Li Yu explained.

This sudden pretense caught Han Dong off guard.

Li Yu continued: "I have never thought about using movies to educate the audience. I have always made things that the audience likes to see, so I have always been able to produce good works. It's that simple."

This understatement of Versailles speech convinced Han Dong very much.

Li Yu said it very lightly, but in fact it is very difficult to accurately grasp the audience's taste.

Many professional research institutions are unable to do this.

It's really amazing that Li Yu can do this.

Li Yu may be the only director in China who has this kind of market awareness.
