Entertainment: My knife has made the whole world sad

Chapter 165 Zhou Kai’s debut novel!

Lin Qiu came back from his hometown and saw Zhou Kai on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.

Because he has been busy with the Spring Festival Gala performance, Lin Qiu basically never had time to see Zhou Kai after he returned to Xiazhou.

This time Zhou Kai came to Lin Qiu's house. Without saying a word, he strangled him naked and killed him for a thousand years!

I'm going to blanch it! It hurts!

You look like you have a good physique, haven't you been ripped off by a woman from Mizhou?

Lin Qiu slapped Zhou Kai's hand away and teased.

Zhou Kai chuckled and licked his lips subconsciously.

However, he suddenly became serious and said to Lin Qiu righteously:

What did you say?

My friend is in Mizhou and has devoted himself wholeheartedly to studying special effects movies.

Why do you think that my brother is that kind of person?

Lin Qiu shrugged and said disdainfully:

Is not it?

cut.

You do not know me.

Everyone who understands you is your sister.

Slander! Slander!

It has been a full year and a half since I went to study in Mizhou after graduation.

A lot has happened in this year and a half.

Holy shit! Are you and my sister Tang really together? I thought it was a scandal!

But that's right, you two were flirting with each other when I wasn't leaving.

Zhou Kai crossed his hands on his chest and said.

If you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem very surprising.

From the first meeting, Zhou Kai, the love guru, could see the signs.

Zhou Kai is in Mizhou. Learning foreign languages ​​is true, and learning movies is equally true. There is no conflict.

After chatting about some family issues, the two got down to business, which was about the shooting and production of special effects movies.

Mizhou's special effects films have always been the best in Kyushu and are in a leading position, but recently they have shown signs of being gradually caught up by Xiazhou.

In fact, it was the same in the previous life.

You must know that American special effects movies have been developing since the end of the 20th century.

At that time, Terminator and subsequent special effects masterpieces such as The Matrix and Star Wars series were already leading the world, and domestic industrial films at that time were only in their infancy.

Then came the Marvel blockbusters and science fiction masterpieces such as Interstellar, 2012 and Avatar.

Until Lin Qiu's time travel, the reputation of Marvel blockbusters had gradually declined due to many reasons, but even so, it still swept the global box office.

The threshold for viewing the special effects blockbusters in the Marvel series is quite low for movie fans.

Just grab some popcorn, no need to think, just relax.

The reason why this series is so popular is that it has built a huge superhero universe and realized the superhero dream in boys' minds.

Lin Qiu himself is not a fan of the Marvel series of movies, but he has to admit that this is a real box office harvester in Kyushu, and it is also a series of movies that can really break into the Kyushu market and trigger a tsunami in Kyushu.

In the previous life in China, because the film industry developed relatively late, there were very few special effects masterpieces.

At the beginning, its reputation was lowered by special effects masterpieces such as Grand Trail.

It turns out that it has been generally believed in China that the special effects technology of the United States is far, far ahead of ours. This is a deep-rooted thought.

It wasn't until the appearance of The Wandering Earth that this prejudice was truly broken.

Of course, the emergence of Shanghai Cannon has deepened this prejudice...

Judging from the effect visually displayed on the movie screen.

Not talking about the plot, just talking about the special effects, The Wandering Earth will not be much inferior.

In my previous life, I included Hollywood production staff, many of whom were domestic staff.

The reason why domestic special effects blockbusters are far inferior to foreign ones is because the production of domestic films always does not prioritize them.

Whether the special effects are good or not, how much investment is important is of course important. What is also important is whether the special effects are worth the investment.

In China, most of the investment in movies goes to actors.

The salaries of well-known actors in Xiazhou are too high.

Unless it's your movie, otherwise...

Zhou Kai shook his head and said.

Nowadays, the whole Xiazhou is like this, but Lin Qiu is different. For Lin Qiu's current movies, even if they are paid 0, there will be a large number of good actors vying to film them. But if it is a new director like Zhou Kai, Not too possible.

In Xiazhou, if you hire a well-known actor or star, the effect will be much better than making a movie in a down-to-earth manner.

There are only so many production funds for a movie. Once the actors take it, there will naturally be less production funds left for the movie.

The reason why a film like The Wandering Earth appeared in the previous life also experienced many twists and turns.

The other thing is investment.

I have to say that because of the vast market, Mizhou Film has far more confidence to invest than we do in Xiazhou.

Zhou Kai sighed.

From an investment point of view, the investment in special effects blockbusters in Mizhou is almost all at least 1.5 billion.

In China, an investment of 300 to 400 million is considered a big production, and a film with an investment of 1 billion like The Truman Show is even rarer.

In the final analysis, it is because of the Kyushu Film Market.

Because Mizhou's movies will have a box office of more than 10 billion when released in Kyushu, that's why they invest so much. However, the total box office of Xiazhou movies in Jiuzhou Movie World has never exceeded 10 billion.

Big investment, high special effects, high box office, then invest in the second one...

With such a virtuous cycle, the entire film industry chain will start to move.

That's why Lin Qiu had to work hard to open the Jiuzhou Film Market, because only by opening the Jiuzhou Film Market can the Xiazhou Film Chain be operational.

In Xiazhou, a film worth 5 billion is considered excellent.

But if the Kyushu market is opened, the total box office in Kyushu may be directly doubled.

how?

Still a little weak?

Lin Qiu looked at Zhou Kai's expression and teased.

Nonsense, there must be pressure.

I'm a new director, and I'm going to direct commercial blockbusters that cost billions of dollars. What do you think?

Lin Qiu chuckled and patted Zhou Kai's shoulder directly, The company isn't panicking, why are you panicking?

Well, let's make a movie for you first.

Practice your hands.

The second part will start the Marvel series. I will draw the storyboards for you. Don't panic.

Lin Qiu took out one of the scripts he had written and handed it to Zhou Kai.

Script name: The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years.

Zhou Kai currently has little directing experience.

Directing a masterpiece right out of the gate is definitely not realistic.

This was planned by Lin Qiu and Zhou Kai long ago.

Chang'an's low-budget films have always been very interesting, especially Lin Qiu's scripts.

A movie like Those Years with an investment of 10 to 20 million will lose money if it loses money.

Even if Zhou Kai's family pays for it themselves, they won't blink, so Zhou Kai won't feel any pressure.

Although I learned it after Lin Qiu and the Mizhou crew, as a director, I still need to have directing experience.

Trust me, it's no problem.

Lin Qiu said with a smile.

In Xiazhou, I am afraid that only Lin Qiu is more suitable for shooting such a special effects masterpiece than Zhou Kai who returned from Mizhou.

In his previous life, Director Guo, before directing The Wandering Earth, had only directed one independent film, My Deskmate, and had never directed science fiction.

Even so, Director Guo still brought science fiction masterpieces like The Wandering Earth.

The directors of the Marvel series of movies include many directors with sparse resumes. The proportion of special effects film directors is limited. What is more important is post-production and story composition.

OK.

Modan, it's done.

Zhou Kai breathed a long sigh of relief, his eyes becoming more and more intense.

Since graduation, Zhou Kai has watched Lin Qiu and Ye Zhiyuan shine more and more brightly. While envious, he can only calm down and tell himself to study more so that he can keep up with them.

Chang'an's iron triangle is still missing a corner.

After getting the script of his debut movie, Zhou Kai went to the living room, calmed down, and started reading.

Lin Qiu flipped through the Marvel script, which was only in prototype form.

There's still a long time, so there's no rush.

When filming starts, change the background of the story.

Lin Qiu murmured.

Lin Qiu has long planned to adapt the Marvel series of movies.

It is to change the backgrounds of several important characters in the Marvel series to various places in Kyushu.

Captain Xiazhou.

Dr. Strange from England, The Magician, Fantasy Linked to Harry Potter.

Xizhou Thunder God, the prototype of his previous life was the Nordic God of Thunder.

“The Green Giant of Yingzhou perfectly fits its ocean pollution.”

A few years later, the Avengers and the heroes of Kyushu returned to fight against foreign enemies.

The pattern is definitely bigger than American Heroes Save the World.

living room.

Zhou Kai, who is extremely emotional, seemed to have been included in the script of Those Years!

Lin Qiu's movies have always been very sharp.

In Those Years, how can it be that it is not a knife, and why is it not capable of breaking people's defenses?

Woo...

The script of the movie is not very long. After more than an hour, Zhou Kai reached the last paragraph.

[The other side: Brother the groom, want to discuss it? 】

[Groom: What discussion? 】

[Other side: We have so many red envelopes... I want to kiss the bride, but I don’t know if it’s possible! 】

[Groom: The bride said yes, I have no problem! 】

[Bride: (laughing) OK. 】

[Everyone: Great! (Clapping hands, gearing up)]

[Groom: Wait! It's okay to kiss the bride...but! How you want to kiss the bride later, you have to kiss me first. This is only fair! (Pretending to be a joke)]

When he saw this paragraph, Zhou Kai seemed a little confused.

Shen Jiayi got married, and the groom was not Ke Jingteng. He could only witness his beloved becoming someone else's wife.

But when Ke Jingteng rushed up and kissed the groom wildly, Zhou Kai could feel the burst of emotions just from the words in the script!

Once it is released on the big screen, it will definitely be very tear-jerking.

After turning the last page of the script, Zhou Kai could not calm down for a long time.

Turning around, she saw Lin Qiu wearing slippers and staring at him with red and swollen eyes with a smile.

cough……

This script is so good that I cry.

The pain of youth is that girls are always more mature than boys of the same age, and the movie Those Years exaggerates this regret to the extreme.

Compared with Love Letter, stories like Those Years may be more resonant with Xiazhou audiences!

After all, who in their youth did not have Ke Jingteng or Shen Jiayi who walked into their hearts?

Especially the classic Lin Qiu style, which is hard to love.

The story in the front is so sweet, and the story behind is so cruel!

Even in an era when youth films were rampant in previous lives, this youth film is still hailed as one of the best youth films in the country, or even one of the best.

This drama is directed seriously.

I'll be a consultant.

This kind of low-cost film can be shot and produced very quickly. It can start shooting in April or May and be released in August or September.

Zhou Kai nodded and said seriously:

good!

Although Zhou Kai doesn't have anything serious to say on weekdays, when it comes to work, Zhou Kai doesn't dare to be careless in the slightest.

From February to June, Lin Qiu's main job is to prepare for the filming of The Yang Family, so he has some free time.

Once the release of The Truman ends, it is expected that filming will begin immediately.

We strive to have it broadcast uniformly on all major CCTV and satellite TV during the Spring Festival next year. Regarding this, after the Spring Festival Gala, the officials have given a lot of support.

Zhou Kai knew that he was inexperienced and had to ask Lin Qiu for advice on many things. With Lin Qiu as a consultant, Zhou Kai could feel more at ease.

But Zhou Kai will eventually become a director in his own right.

Lin Qiu and Zhou Kai immediately began to discuss the casting and filming details of the script. After all, Lin Qiu, as the author of the script, should be the person who knows the story of Those Years best.

Regarding the actors in the movie Those Years, they are quite particular.

After all, many of today's youth films are played by popular actors in their thirties, and their age alone does not quite fit the role.

In this drama, there are only two main actors, one is Ke Jingteng and the other is Shen Jiayi, and the role of Shen Jiayi is very important!

But Lin Qiu and Zhou Kai almost reached a consensus on the casting of this role in a short period of time.

Qu Wen!

Qu Wen!

Qu Wen.

Today Chang An can be said to be the most popular new actress!

After all, others such as Chen You and Liya are all capable actors, and their popularity is relatively low.

Qu Wen, who became famous for her role as Zhao Ling'er in Sword and Fairy 1, plays the role of Solanum Solanum in the currently airing Sword and Fairy 3.

His pure temperament is so perfect for the role of Shen Jiayi in Those Years that there is no need for an open casting process.

Regarding the choice of Ke Jingteng, Jiang Hao, who has actually appeared in Love Letter, is very good.

Just as Chang'an's new film Those Years was officially launched and ready for filming, many entertainment companies and actors in the entertainment industry received a surprising news.

That's the news about the Yang Generals Training Camp.

Lin Qiu revealed during the Spring Festival Gala that he would be planning to film a TV series today, but no one expected it to be in this way!

This made many actors who were initially gearing up to compete for Lin Qiu's TV series roles suddenly stunned!

It's not that they question Lin Qiu, but that participating in this training camp is too time-consuming!

Many stars in the entertainment industry are making money every day, and the bigger the stars, the more so.

This training camp alone lasts for a hundred days. If we calculate the daily income of 2.08 million, we will earn 200 million less...

In addition, the more traffic and celebrity actors have, the less they like to compete for roles with marginal actors in the entertainment industry, as they feel that they are losing status.

This is why Lin Qiu said that not many big-name actors will participate in the training camp.
