Chapter 1013 This Is Selected (24)
Many people always boast that "The Legend of Shushan" is awesome, saying that it is the "peak of fairy tale movies"...
But its Douban score is 6.9...
Could it be that the audience at the last session didn’t know the goods?
Actually, it’s not true. The visual effects of Xu Laoguai’s “The Legend of Shushan” are Eastern tradition + Western mythology + post-modern technology, which makes people feel that time and space are dislocated and they don’t understand why.
Moreover, the plot is empty, and the settings of many characters are unclear...
None of the actors performed particularly well, nor were they given much opportunity to express themselves.
Moreover, in order to sell the copyright, Zhang Ziyi was forced into the role. Her part was obviously added temporarily, and it was very awkward - this character did not promote the plot at all. She went to the mountain to become a disciple inexplicably, and she was separated from Tan Yaowen inexplicably...
But in terms of creating a fairy-tale atmosphere, "The Legend of Shushan" is hard to beat.
Even the special effects of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", which is known as the pinnacle of fairy tale dramas, cannot match "The Legend of Shushan".
The "holographic projection" of the white-browed old man in the sky has already surpassed the concept in "Avatar", and the scene of the return of ten thousand swords to the clan is also very shocking - back then, when even World of Warcraft didn't have a flight system, "The Legend of Shushan" had already been played It's a dogfight.
In the past two decades, special effects have indeed improved a lot, but the aesthetics have not improved much.
The gorgeous special effects not only fail to reflect the majestic fairy atmosphere, but also reveal a sense of cheap plastic everywhere.
Today's fairy tale dramas are all bland in terms of color scheme, shots, and actions. Some obvious bugs are really annoying.
Look at the immortal cultivators in "The Legend of Shushan". If they can fly, they will never walk on their legs. If they can fly fast, they will never show off.
The flying posture is cool and domineering, the weapon moves are smooth and smooth, the various spells have dazzling effects, and the mirror movement is beautiful and the composition is careful, highlighting the momentum!
Shen Xudong has always felt that it would be a good idea to make another "Shu Mountain"...
"We made a lot of changes. We first did the script design and prepared the structure of the three dramas. "Shu Mountain" represents the orthodoxy of heaven, but the evil sect is not naturally willing to do bad things. The main contradiction running through it is that the upper world is preparing to close the ascension pool, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is about to Dissipated... Shushan has been responsible for contacting the upper world, and they passed on this news..."
Xu Ke talked about the general plot setting of "Shu Mountain"...
Everyone present listened attentively, regardless of whether they were interested or not.
"Then...is it still "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman"?"
Shen Xudong shrugged: "There is no way I can't change it. When I was writing, Huanzhu Louzhu was referring to "Fengshenbang". The characters in "Fengshenbang" were very diode. When I was writing, I looked at moral good and evil in an isolated and one-sided way. Good people are good no matter what they do, and bad people are wrong in everything they do. , even if the treasure is handed in late, I will label you as "greedy" and then kill you... This will definitely not work..."
"And there are too many characters. Few current audiences have watched the original "Shu Mountain"..."
…
Reba originally thought that this dinner would be very secretive, so she specially wore a black turtleneck knitted bottoming shirt + black stockings + black leather shoes...
I was wearing a black suit, and when I got to the box, I took it off...
I didn’t expect it to be a big party!
Let alone talking to Shen Xudong, even Chen Xi had no time to talk to her...
I can only sit quietly and eat...
Everyone present was a director, so I felt like I shouldn’t be here...
When she heard them talking about "Shushan", she subconsciously thought they were discussing the Shushan sect in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", but they mentioned something like 'Sanying Eryun, a disciple of the Emei sect', and 'Ding Yin, son of the blood god'...
She... seemed to understand, and then thought of the two dramas Chen Xi mentioned to her - "Ordinary Glory", produced by PPTV and broadcast by CCTV, starring Yu Hewei, Bai Jingting...
The heroine has not yet been decided!
"Our Forty Years" has the same configuration - produced by PPTV and broadcast by CCTV. The female lead drama has not yet been decided...
Both of these are serious dramas. Being able to star in such dramas will not help much in spreading popularity, but the ratings in the circle will be much higher!
She was wandering in the sky when she suddenly felt Chen Xi pushing her and quickly came back to her senses: "What's wrong?"
"Take off your coat, stand up, and walk around..."
"Ah good."
Reba looked confused, but still obeyed...
After doing this, I sat down honestly and heard Tsui Hark say: "If your eyebrows are raised, you are indeed quite heroic, but I don't know what your figure is like!"
Chen Xi quickly said: "She used to dance...really hot..."
Reba also replied: "Yes, I studied folk dance and ballet for six years..."
Tsui Hark looked at her again, and then said: "Okay, just give it to Li Yingqiong..."
Chen Xi quickly motioned to Reba to thank him: "...thank you, director!"
Reba didn't understand why and stood up: "Thank you, director..."
"It's okay, it mainly depends on you..."
"Then the director must give him a chance..."
"Let's not talk about this for now," Shen Xudong waved his hand, and then said: "We can start casting now...it will take two years...it will be released during the Lunar New Year in 2016. Are there any questions?"
"no problem…"
"Um…"
"Then who is responsible for "The Great Sage Havoc in Heaven"?"
"Is Tian Xiaopeng, the assistant director of "The Return of the Great Sage" suitable?"
Tsui Hark nodded: "Tian Xiaopeng was an animation director before. He was the one who made the final decision on the conceptual design of our "The Return of the Great Sage". The entire team is also familiar with him, so there is absolutely no problem!"
"Okay, let's eat first."
…
Although he didn't know what happened specifically, Reba could still feel it - the new movie directed by Tsui Hark...
Halfway through, Chen Xi went to the toilet, and she accompanied him. Chen Xi told her the importance of "Shu Mountain" and then said: "Li Yingqiong is the main character in the "Shu Mountain" series, so you must play it well!"
"...is she the heroine?"
"yes!"
"...Wow, I'm actually going to act in Tsui Hark's movie."
Seeing her expression, Chen Xi couldn't help but remind her: "Do you know that before this time, Tsui Hark had filmed two versions of "Shu Mountain"?"
Reba smiled awkwardly: "...I'm not sure, I don't watch many movies..."
Chen Xi shook his head: "You have to remember that the actors who played Li Yingqiong in the previous two versions were Brigitte Lin and Zhang Baizhi..."
"Lin...Brigitte Lin? Then...I..."
Hearing these two names, Reba was a little scared...
This is a classic challenge!
If you are not careful, you will definitely be scolded by netizens...
""New Shushan Swordsman" and "Shushan Biography", I will come back to you to read it and learn from it..."
"good."
Reba quickly wrote it down, then thought of something, and asked nervously: "Sister Chen, do I need to show the photo album to Mr. Shen later?"
Chen Xi glanced at her, thought for a while, and said: "Whatever you want, let me remind you that "Shu Mountain" is definitely one of the company's best resources in recent years. Even if you find him, there may not be anything better than this." Good choice."
"...I brought them all..."
"So, I said it's up to you...forget it, when it's over, I'll let you take Xudong's car back...the rest is up to you!"
