Halo of cheating in the entertainment industry

This matter has been troubled for a long time. Su Li's initial plan was to find an actor with relatively good acting skills in China to act, and himself to play an important supporting role.

Later, he wanted to find the leading actor of the original version of "Inception" to act, but he was frightened by the price of the film, and felt that it was unnecessary to spend so much money on it.

Now, he himself is more and more inclined to be the leading actor in the play.

First of all, only I have watched "Inception", and only I know how the leading actor in it acts, and he can play the leading actor well.As for the issue of age—in fact, this is not a problem. You must know that in "Source Code", Su Li can be made more than ten years old through special makeup techniques.

This is not an easy task for Su Li and the crew. He has to wear a lot of makeup effects every time he shoots, which is a bit annoying, and he also spends a lot of time on it every day.

Su Li is struggling with this issue, but it has not reached the point where he must decide on the protagonist, and he still has a few months.He has only roughly determined a few supporting roles now: he wants Yang Mi to play the dream builder. In fact, the dream builder even has more roles than the heroine in the movie. This can be regarded as some selfishness of his own.

Playing the leading role himself has its own benefits for the film, and even more benefits for himself. He knows that "Inception" will eventually go to the whole world. If he plays the leading role, his influence may be as large as to expand worldwide

Other supporting roles should also be carefully selected. He hasn’t decided on the heroine for a while (well, I don’t know who is better, everyone think about it, and then talk about it in the book review area.), whether it’s the heroine or other supporting roles , all need to have certain acting skills, preferably handsome men and beautiful women, but the acting skills cannot be bad, after all, this is a movie that is going to the world...

The tycoon's son is going to find Wu Yanzu. After nearly two years of honing, his acting skills have gradually improved. It is not difficult to control such a role.

The actors who played the other roles were a little tangled, and he pondered for a while in his heart, but he still couldn't make a complete decision.He has considered Fang Zuming, Chen Kun, Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, and Wen Wen, but he has not yet made a final decision.

In terms of mastering the plot of "Inception", Su Li didn't dare to modify it by himself. After all, the original script was already perfect. Once he went out, it would be easy to superfluous, and even destroy the whole movie.He mainly pondered the lines of some actors, and he tried to use easy-to-understand lines to express the deconstruction and context of the movie.

The original version of "Inception" was a brainstorm, the plot was full of suspense, the worldview was vast and complicated, and some settings were even more unimaginable than fantasy novels.The structure of the film has caused extensive discussion after the release of "Inception". He wants to make the lines more accessible and easier to understand, and at the same time make the translation work easier-the same sentence, "Inception" Space" is a movie going out to the world.

In the processing of the lines, Su Li still needs to add a little something, that is, some Chinese allusions. The most important one is naturally "Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly".

After "Inception" was released, many movie fans originally had a mature and indestructible view of the world, and felt that "Inception" was enough for entertainment, and the world view was completely absurd... However, every time I think of the ending When the spinning top left suspense, many people still couldn't help but feel chills—is the world we live in real?

Even if science and technology have been developed enough to send people to the moon, even if the world we live in every day can be seen and touched... But we are really likely to live in a dream, someone else's dream... If divergence In terms of thinking, the world we live in may really be a false world, and everything we can see is deception, which is even more terrifying than the projected world that Plato said...

This question does have something in common with Zhuangzi—how can you be sure that it must be Zhuang Zhou dreaming of a butterfly instead of a butterfly dreaming of Zhuang Zhou?

Therefore, Su Li also added some inappropriate parts about Zhuangzi. On the one hand, it can make Chinese audiences feel more at ease, and on the other hand, it can also make foreigners interested in Zhuangzi—it can be regarded as a reason. It has made a little contribution to the promotion of ancient Chinese culture, not to mention that this kind of spiritual commonality is indeed mysterious.

Su Li's modification of the plot was kept to a minimum. He never thought that he would be better than a Hollywood screenwriter team, better than the original "Inception"'s uncanny workmanship.

What he slightly modified was only a little bit of setting and a little bit of plot-in fact, a large part of the reason for these changes was to save money...

The original version of "Inception" costs too much money. Those distorted and blurred worlds, the collapsed time and space, and the construction of mysterious worlds require too much investment.What's more, there were fierce gun battles... Su Li slightly removed the places in the original movies that were mostly just for special effects, and at the same time, turned the gun battle scenes into Chinese People are quite good at fist collisions, which can ensure commerciality and save money. The scale of the chase battle on several streets should be slightly reduced, and the explosion scenes should be slightly reduced.

It can be said that Zuli is budget-conscious in these places and does not want to waste any money.

After these adjustments, "Inception" can be won within an investment of about [-] to [-] million.

Actors, props, and venues are cheaper.The special effects may be better, but the cost is far from that high... Fenying Special Effects Studio is a local special effects team in China, and it is also a special effects studio under Liguang Entertainment Company, so the cost of "Inception" is much higher. Much cheaper.

Combining several factors, the cost of "Inception" will be much reduced, and it should not be difficult to win about [-] to [-] million.

Su Li also began to travel around for the film, investigating suitable locations.

The city in Inception chose Suli after much deliberation, but I still chose Kunming.

After all, Su Li came from Yunnan, and he is very familiar with this city.Kunming is not too big among the provincial capital cities across the country, and it is much easier to rent out venues and other things. This is also very important for Kunming's promotion itself, so Kunming City ZF quickly gave Su Li and the others a satisfactory answer , At the same time, the police will be used to block the road.

Zu Li did not choose these things because of his hometown, but for the consideration of the movie.

There are also some shots to be shot in Shanghai, which have been carefully considered.

The original version of "Inception" was filmed not only in the United States, but also in some other countries and regions.Zuli and the others will also switch some urban styles, and may even go to Los Angeles to shoot some exterior scenes...

The background setting of the main character, Su Li, has been changed a lot—their clients are still Japanese tycoons, but the main character’s background is Chinese.

At that time, the protagonist was suspected because of the death of his wife and wandered around the world. Then he met this tycoon and started a new plan...

Thinking of these shootings for Su Li, I also have some headaches. There is no doubt that this is the biggest move he has made since he entered the film industry. The luxury and grandeur of this film can be called the first in the history of domestic films...

Su Li, who has to undertake such a task, is not yet 22 years old...

If "Inception" can be as successful as the original version, it will definitely be a shot in the arm for Chinese-made movies. After all, the original version of "Inception" has a total box office of 81 billion... US dollars, which is 60 in RMB [-] million……….

Because of this, the world will really pay attention to Chinese movies. In the future, Su Li will have the basis for his own acceptance and recognition by the world if he wants to make fairy-tale movies with Chinese characteristics and draw a line from the so-called magic movies.

In fact, "Source Code" laid a little foundation for "Inception", and "Inception" would lay the real foundation for Zuli's globalization strategy.

Let's go back to May 5, when "Source Code" was officially released in the North American film market.

Liguang Entertainment has contractual restrictions with those foreign cinema operators, and Liguang Entertainment has also invested in the promotion of the United States.

However, most of the publicity investment fell on the head of Liguang Entertainment Company. After all, the theater dealers' evaluation of this movie is neither painful nor itchy, and they don't want to spend much time on it.They couldn't believe that Source Code's U.S. box office would be astonishing, even though "Source Code" did well in Asia.

Therefore, they finally chose to make this movie with a slightly publicized attitude but not too much effort.

When "Source Code" was released, not many Americans knew about this movie. They knew very little about "Source Code", and most of them just stayed on the poster. The movie doesn't have much of a focus.

In their eyes, Chinese movies, as long as they are not familiar faces like Zhang Yimou, Li An, and Wu Yusen, they will probably choose to watch... Su Li... who is this?They have never heard of it.

The actors and directors are all famous people... As for the box office of this movie in Asia... What does that have to do with them?They are in the center of world film culture, why should they pay attention to Asia?

Therefore, the box office premiere of "Source Code" in the United States was really deserted, with a few people sitting in the sparsely populated theaters, and the attendance rate was even less than 15.

"Damn it, we really lost money." Most of the cinema operators who had negotiated with Zu Li are now complaining.

Until later, an arrow pierced some people's knees...

The cast of "Inception"... I hope everyone can give advice. I have already thought of many people for the heroine and supporting actor.I have thought about Zhou Xun, Zhao Wei, Lin Chiling and many other female protagonists, but I feel that people who have acting skills will be disgusted, and those who do not have acting skills are too inconsistent, entangled...

By the way, everyone’s comments this week are very enthusiastic. The essence is exhausted. Thank you for your support. Seeing this situation, I feel full of motivation when I write something. The weekly ticket is about to break through 1500. The rewards are awesome, the subscription is still not very good but it is slowly increasing... Thank you

Thank you so much, now I feel more and more comfortable writing "The Halo of the Entertainment Circle", and I have a lot of things to say.

The North American box office of "Source Code" will naturally have a turning point, so don't worry.
