Halo of cheating in the entertainment industry

Facing this finished product, not only Su Li himself felt full of a sense of accomplishment, but also the hard work of so close to a year was worthwhile. Even Li Xian and Yao Qi, the master and apprentice, were also full of excitement when they saw "Inception". Viscerally satisfying, it's the most special effects movie they've ever made, no question about that.

Watching this high-level movie from start to finish, and finally put it in front of everyone, the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction in their hearts made them feel at ease. The level of this movie is quite high, and they have confidence in themselves. It can fully represent the advanced level of special effects in the world.

Su Li watched it by himself. From April last year to now, he has been working hard to shoot this "Inception" for nearly a year. Now, the finished product is in his hands. The excitement is indescribable. .

He even let his gaze immerse himself in several shots for a long time, and watched several scenes over and over again. Under such concentration, he could occasionally see a few flaws, so that the post-production could slightly modify them. The production phase of this film is officially over, and the publicity phase is next.

The production stage is the forming moment for a film, and the publicity stage is the final charge between releases. The success of the publicity is very important to the success of a film.Now, "Inception" has a well-made finished product, and then it will be sent to relevant departments for approval, and then the film will be sent to foreign countries for approval... and then it will be released with great vigor.

The release of "Inception" may be in mid-May, and the official release date of "Inception" is March 3. As long as the flaws in "Inception" can be found and resolved on this day, they will be released. It has been resolved, and what is in the hands of Zu Li is already a finished product.

From the beginning to the end, there is an atmosphere of sophisticated production, every minute and every second is condensed with bright red RMB, and every bit of hard work of the crew.

After the movie is really formed, a lot of information about "Inception" will be revealed.

From the preparation of the shooting location to the completion of the production of "Inception", the total investment in shooting and some relationship management has reached 31 billion yuan, and 1 million yuan has been spent on post-production and special effects processing. So far, 5000 million yuan has been spent on publicity, and the total cost of publicity is estimated to be 2 million yuan.

The investment of the whole film will add up to 61 billion yuan... This investment has exceeded Su Li's prediction of nearly 4 million, too much... 61 billion yuan is almost [-] million U.S. dollars, even in Hollywood, this is also a big investment movie.

If placed in the domestic film market, 61 billion is enough to make 10 so-called Chinese blockbusters.

The total investment of the so-called "Inception" has exceeded 10 billion... In this way, everyone is worried about the issue of "Inception"-what method does Su Li plan to use to recover the cost? 10 billion yuan, this number is too big.

The cost of "Inception" really shocked many people. Some people knew the inside information, and after knowing that "Inception" cost 6 million yuan, they felt that Su Li was a little unreasonable. A 22-year-old How could such a young man dare to do this?Everyone didn't dare to think about what Su Li was planning.

After Su Li and the others add publicity, "Inception" will cost 61 billion yuan. So far, there are very few places to recover the cost. At most, it is some product placement advertisements. These advertisements have recovered the cost of nearly 2000 million. The rest are basically nothing.

When "Inception" was officially released, many people in the outside world knew about it, and many people were looking forward to this movie even more.

So far, the expected release date of "Inception" is May 5th. This has been released. Most of the Chinese movie fans are looking forward to the movie that Zu Li has sharpened his sword a year and spent 16 billion yuan. Waiting for it With the release of this movie, I want to know the specific situation.  …

The propaganda offensive from the outside world has already begun.

When "Inception" had just been released, Su Li received a call from Zhang Yimou, hoping to see what Su Li's [-] million-invested movie looked like.

Su Li naturally agreed very quickly. At this time, Zhang Yimou was in a period of depression. Although his confident "Three Guns" still rushed to more than 2 million at the box office, the word-of-mouth of this movie was really good. The low is extremely low, and the overseas box office with high expectations has also encountered Waterloo.

Su Li knew at the time that his movie was going to be a tragedy, but he didn't want to remind him that it was really a disaster now, and he also hoped that he could try his best to make him feel better.

Since he made his own film, Su Li has received a lot of help from him, from "Nightclub Supermarket" to "Source Code", he has received a lot of help, and he also hopes to find something that can help him.Of course, even if I have nothing to help him, in the movie "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", Zhang Yimou's reputation has returned again. Although "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" was also scolded by some people, it is actually a movie It's a good movie, but everyone's expectations for him are too high, and the movie can't keep up with the expectations.

Su Li and him agreed on March [-]th, and on this day Su Li saw Zhang Yimou in the movie theater.

Now Zhang Yimou has completely regarded Su Li as a very close person, and he doesn't care about showing his tiredness and oldness in front of him.The Zhang Yimou that Su Li saw before was always a heroic man, no matter what, the spirit in his eyes was still there, but now it was different, he could feel a kind of fatigue all over his body.

Seeing Zhang Yimou like this, Su Li felt uncomfortable, but he didn't know what to say for a while. After thinking about it, he could only say: "Teacher...every movie is a past, Regardless of success or failure... don't keep it in your heart."

Zhang Yimou smiled wearily, and then said: "It's okay, you don't need to persuade me, I'm just a little tired." After saying this, he began to care about Su Li, and said: "Your movie is really too much. Take a risk... The 10 billion investment rumored by the outside world is not true, but the real investment of 6 million, are you really telling the media that it is just to make a good movie, and you don't care about recovering the cost?"

Su Li smiled wryly: "That's naturally impossible...Movies are expensive things. I still have a lot of unfinished plans in the future. I need this movie..."

"Are you very confident? This is indeed 22 million...Sometimes your imagination may not come true." He waved his hand: "It doesn't matter... It's too late to say anything now, I choose to believe in you, and I hope your movie will come true." Don't let me down...a movie with an investment of [-] million yuan, and you are still a [-]-year-old person, your courage is beyond everyone's expectations..."

Su Li nodded and said, "I believe it won't disappoint you. To be honest, I still have some confidence in recovering the cost of this movie." When he finished speaking, he couldn't help but reveal Exuding a sharp aura, like a neighing long sword, people can feel the breathtaking cold air.

Seeing Su Li's confident look, Zhang Yimou didn't quite believe it.

Although he also knows that the script of "Inception" is quite good, although he also knows that Su Li spent a year making this movie, although he also knows that Su Li often brings surprises to people... However, the money involved is too big At that time, the suspicion of these things came out.

However, he still sat on the chair in the screening room and said to Su Li: "Then let's start..."

"En." Su Li nodded, then turned on the projector, and then returned to Zhang Yimou's side and sat down. Su Li never tires of watching the movies he has spent so much effort and time making.  …

After Zhang Yimou saw the movie started, his mind and eyes were completely focused on the big screen in front of him, not daring to miss it.Since Su Li is so confident that he can recover the cost of this movie, although he doesn't believe it in his heart, he still needs to take a closer look at where Su Li's confidence comes from.

At the beginning of the film, Su Li appeared in the film with water stains all over his body. Zhang Yimou knew everything about the protagonist in the script, and there was no suspense about it. It's stitched together."

Su Li nodded, waiting for him to continue looking down.

The movie kept going, and when the first shootout and action scene appeared, Zhang Yimou's eyes lit up, and he said to Su Li: "This shot is quite well grasped...you have always had the advantage of controlling the rhythm and atmosphere. , the tense atmosphere is completely foreshadowed, and the suspense about the heroine is ready to emerge..."

Yes, this scene was shot and produced quite well. The gunfights and hand-to-hand combat in the movie are very exciting. When Chen Daoming in the movie found out that this was a dream, even though Zhang Yimou already knew the plot, the suspense reached the extreme and absurd. The feeling is also emerging in my heart.

The plot kept going, and then Zhang Yimou saw Su Li and Yang Mi walking on the street, and then the whole world suddenly turned upside down, and the scene was all in chaos...

Now on the big screen, this scene is extremely shocking, as if the whole world is falling towards him, after several intersecting worlds gradually stabilized, Su Li and Yang Mi stepped onto another plane, this transition Quite natural, without obstacles, and the vehicles with different gravitational forces on both sides, the reversed city and time, make people dazzled...

After watching this special effect, Zhang Yimou immediately asked Su Li to pause, and Su Li adjusted as he said, and then Zhang Yimou's eyes were even a little fanatical: "These special effects of "Inception"... are all from Fenying. The special effects are done?"

Su Li nodded.

Zhang Yimou's eyes fell into a brief absence, and his mind was temporarily blank. After he recovered, he said to Su Li: "I really didn't expect the special effects in China to reach such a level... Such a level of special effects, maybe Even in the world, you can't find a second one at all... Can you tell me honestly, what is the level of your company's Fenying special effects studio?"

After thinking for a while, Su Li said: "So, the two most important technologies of Fenying Special Effects Studio are g and motion capture technology... These two technologies are completely in the leading position in the world. , I can guarantee that movies like "Avatar" can't catch up with the level of the current Fenying special effects studio."

Zhang Yimou accidentally gasped, shocked by the news, and didn't know what to say for a while.

After waiting for a long time, he spoke again: "The news you said is really shocking... I didn't expect you to be able to achieve such a level..."

Naturally, he has also suffered from many foreigners. Those foreign special effects studios regard Chinese movies as fat sheep to be slaughtered, and they are all lions when it comes to special effects production.Every time the special effects are used, they are very angry. Now, Su Li actually said that they already have the ability to surpass "Avatar". How can this not shock him?

Then he remembered other points, and said to Su Li: "You are talking about motion capture technology? It seems that you still can't use that? There are quite a few words. This technology is used to process objects, at least in Inception. used."

"Be prepared..." Su Li just said with a mysterious smile.  …

Zhang Yimou suddenly discovered that compared with the boy who spent several million to make a "Nightclub Supermarket" at that time, Su Li in front of him had already grown to a level that he could hardly predict...There are many things about him I can no longer guess.

And it's only been two years.

"Continue watching the movie..." Zhang Yimou sighed dejectedly, and said to Su Li.

"Okay." Su Li nodded, and then the movie started again, and the plot was still in progress. Seeing those dazzling and blurred special effects really dazzled Lao Mouzi, and he couldn't recover for a long time.

On the contrary, he doesn't pay much attention to the plot anymore. After all, he has read the script and knows the plot of the movie.

Now he mainly focuses on the scene control and rhythm control of "Inception", as well as the structure of the whole movie. This is what he pays attention to.

From the current point of view, these three items can even be described as perfect in his eyes...

When he saw the rainy chase, he himself was frightened by the train rushing out suddenly, and said, "Did you really take the picture of the train?"

Su Li nodded: "Yes, this train is already in Yunnan."

These chase scenes are compact in structure, and the fighting moves are beautiful, which makes people watch quite refreshingly. From the beginning to the final duel in the snow mountain, every place makes people pulse, and after Su Li's exquisite grasp of the atmosphere, this kind of fighting It makes people feel quite refreshed. After reading it, it is as comfortable as taking a refreshing cold bath in summer.

There are also those dazzling and blurred special effects, which make the whole movie to the extreme. From the perspective of the whole or the parts, "Inception" surprised Lao Mouzi even more.
