Chapter 705: Blockbuster Era
No one knows who Huang Feihong is, and everyone is an expert in the film industry, and they all know that it is taboo in the industry to inquire about other people's inside information before their film is made, so after a moment of silence, it is Liu Chengzhang I reminded a few words, "The situation of martial arts movies in recent years has not been very good. The audience is tired of watching them. If you want to make a film, you must make something new."
The others were silent, as if they didn't know what to say.
For Liu Chengzhang's kind reminder, Li Qian smiled and nodded in agreement.
Hearing that Li Qian had already made his own exact arrangements, even the script seemed to have been completed, a slight disappointment flashed across the faces of Hu Fei and Qin Wei at the same time.
However, after all, the two of them are a giant in the industry, and the other is the supreme leader in the industry. Although they are disappointed about this small matter, they don’t take it to heart. At that moment, Hu Fei smiled and said: "Then we have to pay attention to the big sales of the new film." !” After saying that, they raised their cups, and everyone responded one after another, holding up their cups, wishing Li Qian's new movie a big hit.
Li Qian naturally thanked him endlessly.
After everyone drank and sat down, Hu Fei said again: "It's just...it's a pity. I thought that your last movie had just been released and you must take a break, so I wanted to pull you over and have a perfect match with our uncle Qin Woolen cloth!"
Li Qian smiled noncommittal when he heard the words.
Looking at the expressions of Liu Chengzhang and Ming Xiaojing who are close to Qin Wei and Hu Fei, it seems that they already knew something in advance, but he did not take the initiative to ask questions, but said: "There will be opportunities in the future, Wait until next time, I will also spend half a year in Director Qin's 'prison'."
Everyone laughed when they heard the words.
Qin Wei, known as "Uncle Qin", also known as "Master Qin", his studio has many elegant names such as "Da Prison", "Tian Prison", "Squad Room", and "House".
Hearing this, Qin Wei also smiled reservedly.
At this time, everyone had eaten and drank enough. The ash on the cigarette in Qin Wei's hand was two centimeters long, but he had no intention of flicking the ash. He took a puff of the cigarette and said: " You also want to make martial arts films, okay, martial arts films are indeed on the decline, but in my opinion, if our domestic films want to take the road of commercial production, martial arts must be the best choice. That's good, we all Filming, this year is Chengzhang's "Sword Fairy", next year I will watch your "Huang Feihong", mine... I will try to release it next year, let's work together to make martial arts again, the only way is to do a good job of martial arts films This is the basis for us to fight against Hollywood blockbusters, otherwise, we can only let others come in to attack the city and collect box office!"
Hearing this, Li Qian's heart moved and his brows frowned.
Liu Chengzhang seemed very helpless, rubbed his nose, and said, "I'm not called a martial arts man, but a fairy man!"
Qin Wei didn't even look at him, and said: "You are a martial arts man, no matter how gorgeous your coat is, you are a martial arts man at heart!"
Liu Chengzhang was speechless, but he didn't say anything more.
He is a restrained and proud person. Of course he is not satisfied with the concept of "Xian Xia" he worked so hard to create. A contender, and in the final analysis, Qin Wei is the leader in the domestic director circle, even though Liu Chengzhang already has a box-office champion of a domestic film in his hand, in front of Qin Wei, a master of the generation who is famous internationally, he still has a few Not enough confidence.
So, he simply stopped talking.
At this moment, after hesitating for a moment, Cao Zhan took the initiative to ask, "Director Qin's new film is also about martial arts?"
Qin Wei nodded, although there was no smile on his face, but there was a kind of flying in his spirit, and he replied: "Make a martial arts movie, let's make a blockbuster movie, similar to Hollywood movies. Do it!"
Hearing the word "big movie", Cao Zhan turned his head and glanced at Li Qian, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
Just a few days ago, Cao Zhan took his wife to visit Zhou Mo and his wife. They were sitting and chatting together. When talking about this year's work arrangement, the two chatted about the current situation of the domestic film industry.
At that time, Li Qian once said that perhaps within two years, several big directors who had been making literary and artistic films would turn around and start making big investments and making big commercial productions.
When Cao Zhan heard this, he hesitated in his heart and didn't dare to believe it all, but who would have imagined it? It's only been a few days, and Qin Wei really revealed this meaning!
But at this moment when he heard the words, Li Qian sighed in his heart, but nodded again.
Whatever you say is fine, in short, the development of the times is like this, as the so-called time is, and the trend is also.
In another time and space around 2000, a group of big directors in China also began to transform into commercial productions one after another. It doesn't matter whether they are greedy for making a lot of money, or they are the backbone of domestic films, and they are unwilling to see foreign films entering the country to make money. In short, there are various reasons.
The development of the economy and the prosperity of the film market have made this market bigger and bigger. The art film atmosphere in the time when the country was weak and the micro market was small will inevitably be washed away by the surging commercial atmosphere. This is the inevitable development of the market. Law, no one can stop.
Those who conform to it can survive and progress.
Of course, judging from the history of film development in another time and space, Zhang Guoshi has mixed reputations. Although his film reputation has been declining after he pioneered the era of blockbuster films in China, he has to admit that he is still He has made great contributions to the commercial production process of domestic films. As for the other one, he is really completely unable to grasp the path of commercial films, and gradually sinks in one amazing bad film after another. Later, it even became synonymous with bad movies.
But in this current time and space, Qin Wei's status and representative significance in the film industry is even worse than that of Zhang Guoshi in another time and space. He announced that he would enter into a large-scale commercial production. In a sense, it may also represent Is this the beginning of the era of blockbuster movies in China?
Of course, it's already started.
Du Weiyun is currently making this movie, which is said to have invested as much as 60 million yuan, which is already an absolute big investment in the domestic film market, let alone Liu Chengzhang's "Sword Immortal".
And Hu Fei and Zhou Yanghua have always been rivals. Zhou Yanghua spent 60 million yuan for Du Weiyun to make a blockbuster movie. Presumably, he will never be willing to be inferior to others.
In contrast, in recent years, Zhao Meicheng's investment in each film has been controlled at around 20 million, and the highest has not exceeded 30 million. It could have been called a big investment, but now it can be regarded as thrifty. Proceed with caution.
The leading bosses in the domestic film industry have devoted themselves to large-scale commercial productions. Is it wrong or right? No one can draw conclusions. Will they succeed in the transformation smoothly, or will they have to stumble a few times before they can gradually understand what commercial production is? It is impossible to say at this time!
But after all, this is the general trend of historical development, and it is moving forward, and no one can change it!
And whether it is this time and space or the previous time and space, this kind of transformation in response to the changing requirements of the times may have labor pains, and some people may not keep up with the development of the times and sink, but no matter what, in the end it will definitely be Victory must also be victorious!
Because Chinese people love to read stories about Chinese people.
