Millennium Director

Chapter 604 This Is the Real Fairy Hero

Sitting in the front row of the screening room, Wu Yuan had an empty look in his eyes. Although he was looking at Zhang Guorong who was speaking on the stage, he did not listen carefully to what Zhang Guorong was saying.

After the conversation with Zhang Guorong just now and when he saw Cheng Long's face at the end, Wu Yuan was filled with emotion.

Unconsciously, the first decade of the 21st century has passed, and the entertainment industry has entered a new era.

Superstars such as Zhang Guorong, Liu Dehua, Cheng Long, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Zhang Ziyi, Li Lianjie, Liang Chaowei, Zhang Manyu, who once dominated the Chinese film industry, either semi-retired or their box office appeal was not as good as before.

Although they are still the top actors and the biggest movie stars in China, this era no longer belongs to them.

Although I don't want to say it, the Chinese-language films in the next ten years will belong to comedies.

Starting from this year's "Lost in Thailand", Chinese-language comedies will dominate the top five annual box office lists in China all year round, and comedians will become the most box office-resistant actors in mainland movies in the next ten years.

From Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang to Happy Twist and Jia Ling, comedians have become the wealth code of Chinese films.

In comparison, the box office appeal of the older generation of movie stars, such as Liu Dehua and Liang Chaowei, is not enough.

Fortunately, compared with these actors, directors are still relatively strong, and the four major directors such as Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige are still stable.

It has to be said that the career of the director in the entertainment industry is the longest.

In this way, Wu Yuan's thoughts drifted to who knows where, thinking wildly.

Who told Liu Yifei not to come with him to attend the premiere today, busy filming "Go Away! Tumor King", Wu Yuan, who had no one to chat with, naturally began to empty his mind.

It was not until the creators of "The Legend of Shushan Fairy" talked about the bitterness and bitterness of filming this movie, and the movie was about to start screening, that Wu Yuan came back to his senses.

"Director Wu, please give me more advice." Zhang Guorong, who had just returned from the stage, said to Wu Yuan in a serious tone.

As he finished speaking, the lights in the screening room went out, and the familiar dragon logo and the logo of Light and Shadow Times lit up on the big screen one after another.

"The movie has begun!"

The guests, film critics, and reporters sitting in the back row also fell silent after exclaiming, staring at the big screen intently.

Zhang Guorong is now considered a first-tier director in China, especially in the field of special effects blockbusters. A movie "Along with the Gods" directly sent him to the top field. Everyone is still looking forward to this movie.

Sure enough, it did not disappoint everyone's expectations. At the beginning of the movie, it first presented a shocking picture.

After the opening subtitles were played, the big screen suddenly lit up, and a green mountain towering into the clouds appeared on the screen.

The combination of green mountains, cloud peaks, and sunset glows is like a fairyland descending, giving the audience a very Chinese romantic fairy shock.

The camera slowly zoomed in, and the ungorgeous but very exquisite pavilions and waterside pavilions were scattered on the green mountains, and the classical aesthetics of Chinese-style architecture came to the face.

Between each building, there are huge white cranes flying like cranes, which adds a bit of fairy spirit to the green mountains on the top of the clouds.

The camera keeps rotating, leading the audience to visit this fairyland on earth from a high altitude in 360 degrees, which satisfies everyone's fantasy of "immortal residence".

This macro lens of Shushan, which lasted nearly two minutes at the beginning, was burning money every second, and it was burning a lot of money!

However, the effect was really good, and all the audience at the scene were shocked by the fairyland scene.

The camera continued to slowly zoom in, and a large square appeared in the center of the picture.

On the square, dozens of men and women wearing green shirts and hairpins were holding wooden swords and practicing sword moves in neat rows.

The sword moves were not gorgeous, but under the design of professional martial arts instructors, each move was full of fairy spirit.

In particular, these disciples all had long hair and loose clothes. When the sword moves were made, the hem of their clothes and hair fluttered in the wind. It was so pleasing to the eye, fairy and cool.

"Hong Kong's martial arts directors are really professional." Wu Yuan also praised with admiration.

These martial arts moves are obviously designed by Hong Kong's martial arts directors.

We have to admit that Hong Kong is the most professional in Greater China in terms of martial arts guidance.

Since the 1970s and 1980s, Hong Kong's films have relied on kung fu films to make a living. In the past few decades, Hong Kong's martial arts directors have surpassed those in Taiwan and the mainland in terms of professionalism and experience.

Mainland and Taiwan's martial arts films all need to hire professional martial arts directors from Hong Kong. This is the experience accumulated over time and cannot be surpassed in a short time.

Even if Hong Kong's films have completely declined ten years later, Hong Kong's martial arts directors are still the most advanced. A lean camel is bigger than a horse.

"Just this opening alone is estimated to make many Chinese audiences who love Chinese fairy culture and cultivation culture climax." Wu Yuan said with a smile.

Fairy culture is a romance unique to Chinese people.

What a heavenly sword fairy with three million, he must bow his head to see me.

Holding a long sword in hand, he flies into the sky, and the sword fairy floats in the sky.

Outside the mortal world, the sword fairy travels, and his light steps on the white clouds stay.

The sword energy spans 30,000 miles, and the sword light chills the 19 continents.

In Chinese online literature and classical literature, there are too many poems and lyrics describing this kind of fairy sword fairy.

However, this kind of fantasy literature has always remained in the stage of novel literature and has rarely been adapted into film and television.

Tsui Hark took the challenge and made a movie version of "Shushan". However, due to the mediocre special effects technology in the 1990s, the special effects looked fake and not fairy-like enough.

Even so, "Shushan" has always been regarded as the originator of Chinese fairy-tale movies. It is highly praised in the industry and is hard for movie fans to forget.

Now, with the maturity of movie special effects technology, a real fairy-tale special effects blockbuster has finally emerged.

Looking at the figure of the Shushan disciples flying in the sky with swords in the movie, Wu Yuan nodded with satisfaction: "This special effect is really good. Is it made by the company itself?"

"It took more than a year for the team of Light and Shadow Special Effects to make these special effects, because this is a Chinese-style fantasy special effect, there is no ready-made template, and the special effects company completely started from scratch and designed it bit by bit."

"The group of foreign special effects artists in the company also read a lot of Chinese fairy-tale literary works to figure out this fairy-tale culture."

"But after this experience, the speed of special effects production will be much faster when making this kind of Chinese fairy-tale movie in the future, after all, many templates have been made."

"Everything is difficult at the beginning!" The producer from the headquarters of Light and Shadow Times introduced to Wu Yuan seriously.

The special effects of "Shushan Xianxia Zhuan" are really not easy to make. After all, it is the first new-era fairy-tale special effects blockbuster. Everything has to start from scratch, unlike those science fiction special effects, which have existing templates that can be directly applied.

"Well done!" Looking at the fairy-like world of Shushan on the big screen, Wu Yuan was satisfied: "This is what a fairy hero is!" (End of this chapter)
