After the special effects and scenery team of "Tomb Notes" settled in, a valley in Danxia Mountain changed quickly. A strange cypress tree was "planted" in the middle of the valley, and the bare cliffs that originally belonged to the Danxia landform have also become green, and the cliffs are covered with plastic rattan.

This cloth alone (including material costs) consumed over a million Hong Kong dollars in the film budget. However, compared with the post-production cost of the film, this is only a small thing. Kang Jianfei doesn't know whether the budget of 100 million Hong Kong dollars is enough. "Terminator 2", which is still being shown worldwide, has spent more than 5 million US dollars in various transformations of the liquid metal man.

The action scenes in "The Tomb Raiders" basically require special effects shots, and now there is no motion capture technology, so it is extremely troublesome to do special effects in movies.

Seven years ago, "Electronic World Hegemony" was the first film that used a lot of special effects shots. Although the CG team only had 8 people, there were more than 500 post-production personnel involved, which was simply made with money. The same is true for "Tomb Raiders", which is not something that a special effects company can do at all. In the end, there is still a part of the later stage to be assisted by Industrial Light and Magic.

After more than 20 days of filming in Danxia Mountain, the number of crew members increased again, and Luo Lixian also came with his stunt team.

"Big brother, the burst point has been set according to the predetermined position. Over!" There was a noisy call from the walkie-talkie.

"Received, over!" Luo Lixian put away the walkie-talkie and gestured ok to Kang Jianfei, who was more than ten meters away.

Kang Jianfei put the guide tube to his mouth and shouted: "All units pay attention, prepare to start the machine!"

The lenses of several cameras have been aimed at the preset burst point. Xiong Xinxin, who is wearing a strange and tattered costume, and his face is **** with makeup, is pulled to the cliff by the safety lock. A slot was dug in the cliff near the explosion point, Xiong Xinxin hid behind it, and a few stones made of plastic foam were made in front of him.

The heads of each group reported through the walkie-talkie that they were ready. Kang Jianfei stood behind the monitor and said, "It's time to start."

The scene record immediately took the board and placed it in front of the main camera, and pressed it down hard: "The sixth shot of the 32nd scene of "Tomb Notes", Aikesh!"

After the board was removed, Luo Lixian gave a signal to the top of the cliff.

"boom!"

The explosion sounded on the cliff, and Xiong Xinxin jumped from the groove of the cliff with the explosion, and the fake stones made of plastic foam also flew around, as if Xiong Xinxin broke through the cliff and flew out from it.

"Crack!" After Kang Jianfei and other cameras captured that shot from different directions, they immediately arranged to shoot the next shot.

Xiong Xinxin, who played the thousand-year-old zombie of King Lu, was suspended in the air, with several kilometers of safety ropes tied to both ends of the valley, and the steel wire behind Xiong Xinxin's waist was hung on the safety rope.

More than 20 members of the stunt team all over the valley were nervously controlling the rope in their hands. When Luo Lixian waved his hand, everyone started to move.

Xiong Xinxin quickly "flyed" down from mid-air, and before landing, Kang Jianfei shouted, "Crack, crooked, come again!"

The body that had not yet landed suddenly stopped, and several stunt team employees on a hill pulled the ropes and pulled Xiong Xinxin in mid-air back to the original position.

After more than 40 minutes, after countless attempts, the scene of the zombie landing from the air was truly completed. Xiong Xinxin was not only sore and numb, but even her legs were numb. Kang Jianfei asked her to not bend her legs when they landed.

"Are you okay?" Kang Jianfei asked Xiong Xinxin.

"It's okay." Xiong Xinxin smiled reluctantly, he felt like his whole body was about to fall apart. But you can't say "no" in front of the director. Although he is a national martial arts champion, he is destined to be a substitute and a villain because of his fierce appearance. Being able to endure hardships is more important than being good at it.

Kang Jianfei nodded and said, "You take a rest first, your role is very heavy today."

"Thank you Director." Xiong Xinxin supported her numb legs and walked to the rest area next to her to sit down. He is the villain in the movie's fight scenes, but it was impossible for the audience to recognize him when it was released, because Xiong Xinxin played a zombie without a line, and would be extremely terrifying due to makeup and post-production special effects.

When Xiong Xinxin was resting, the play of several leading actors started again.

After making some arrangements, the filming resumed. Lin Xue knelt on the "Jade Terrace" under the tree, pointed in the direction where Xiong Xinxin had landed just now and shouted in horror, "That thing is still alive!"

Wu Zhenyu's expression slowly became solemn and said, "We seem to have nowhere to escape."

Zhang Yan, who was dressed in white, suddenly "falled from the sky". Her clothes were covered with blood and her hair was scattered, blocking Wu Zhenyu and Lin Xue's body.

"Zheng!"

Wujin's blood sword came out of her body, and the blower made Zhang Meng's clothes flutter. She held the sword in her hand and rushed towards the zombie.

"Hey, Bingshan Girl, I'm here to help you!" Wu Zhenyu took out a black donkey's hoof as a brick from his backpack, and jumped off the jade platform to help.

The camera stopped here. Kang Jianfei called Wu Zhenyu, Zhang Meng, Lin Xue and Xiong Xinxin together. The action director Huang Shrimp and several stand-ins also came over. Everyone began to discuss and rehearse the next action scene.

...

When the crew left Danxia Mountain, it was already autumn. At the end of the summer season of Hong Kong movies, "A Lang's Story", directed by Ang Lee, starring Zhou Runfa and Zhong Chuhong, sold 31.86 million at the local box office and became the box office champion this summer. .

It is well known that literary films do not sell well in Hong Kong, but basically every once in a while, there will be one or two literary films that sell well in Hong Kong.

This is the case with "A Lang's Story". Under Ang Lee's lens language, this film is more literary and artistic than the original. Ang Lee's ability is to make a film that looks literary and artistic so that ordinary audiences can watch it. This guy has been an assistant director with Kang Jianfei for two years, and he has a good grasp of the audience's viewing needs.

In the film, when Alang fell, blood flowed down the transparent cover of the helmet, and the audience's tears followed. Especially the female audience, when Zhou Runfa died, all of them were crying.

In this way, while deceiving the audience's tears, a literary film also deceived the audience's money, and by the way, beat all the movies released in the summer and became the box office champion in the summer.

Zhou Runfa and Zhong Chuhong were already red and purple, but after appearing in "A Lang's Story" this time, the film appointments flew like snowflakes.

The remuneration of Hong Kong actresses is much lower than that of male actors. In the past, Zhong Chuhong's remuneration was only 1 million at most, while Alan Tam and Leslie Cheung both earned more than 1.5 million, and Li Lianjie and Xu Guanjie's remuneration was at least 2 million. After the big sale of "A Lang's Story", Zhong Chuhong's salary soared to 1.8 million, becoming the only one among Hong Kong actresses.

After "A Lang's Story" was finished, "Terminator 2" from the United States took over.

Before its release in Hong Kong, "Terminator 2" had already been released in Japan, Europe and the United States, sweeping the local box office without exception. Today, "Terminator 2" has grossed $380 million at the national box office, and the frenzy continues to spread.

Oriental Film Company ( ) was initially established as a US office-like agency that also handled the distribution liaison for Oriental DreamWorks in the US.

But until now, every year, one or two Hollywood movies have to be invested or produced, including "Home Alone 1", "Terminator 1, 2", and "Out of Africa", "Rain Man" and other blockbuster movies. Profitability can already be ranked in the middle of many American film companies.

The success of "Terminator 2" has completely made the Oriental Film Company famous all over the world. Although most viewers do not know the origin of this company, the flying dragon and three English abbreviations in the title are reflected in the audience's mind. It's as if many viewers don't know about Paramount and Warner, but they are deeply impressed by the stars surrounding the snowy mountains and the wb shield logo in the movie title. Anyway, as long as those logos appear, they feel tall.

With the popularity of "Terminator 2", director Cameron finally divorced his second wife, Anne Hurd. Anne Hurd, as a newly divorced woman, did not show a trace of sadness. She was busy with her next investment. Because Kang Jianfei gave her 18 shares of the company in the summer, as an affirmation of Anne Hurd's work in the past few years, and also an incentive for her future work.

It can be said that Kang Jianfei has not been in charge of the Oriental Film Company in the United States in the past few years. Except for the few blockbuster films he directed, Anne Hurd is responsible for all other films.

This woman is very powerful in both professional and interpersonal skills, and she is very ambitious in her career. With the strong financial support of Kang Jianfei, Anne Hurd has developed the Oriental Film Company into a top-ranked film company in the United States within a few years, which is a very rare achievement.

Kang Jianfei didn't feel bad about the 18 shares at all. A workaholic strong woman like Anne Hurd would double her life when she became a shareholder of the company.

...

Beijing, Liulichang.

During the Qing Dynasty, Manchu and Han were separated, and Han people were not allowed to live in the inner city. At that time, Liulichang was in the west of the outer city. Most of the Han people’s guild halls were built here. Han scholars who came to Beijing to take the exam also settled here. There were shops selling ink and calligraphy and painting. Over time, a strong cultural atmosphere was produced.

After the reform and opening up, Liulichang has gradually prospered. At first, it only sold the four treasures of the study and books, calligraphy and paintings, and then there were gradually more stamp collectors and antique vendors, and then there were all kinds of fake antique pit tourists.

Liulichang was the last location for the filming of "Notes on Tomb Raiders", because the third uncle in Kang Jianfei's book opened an antique shop on this street in the capital.

It was already half afternoon. Kang Jianfei observed it through the camera's viewfinder for a few seconds, and pointed his toes on the ground and said, "Set up the camera here."

The two camera assistants hurriedly came over with the camera. Zhang Yimou asked for a viewfinder. He looked at the thing like a monocular, shook his head and said, "Compared to the camera position just now, nothing has changed."

Kang Jianfei said with a smile: "It's true that not much has changed, but it can highlight the main body and make the heroine's image more chic and eye-catching."

Zhang Yimou nodded subconsciously, indicating that he had been taught.

Since the filming of "Notes of Tomb Raiders" in Beijing, Zhang Yimou took the initiative to apply to the China Film Co-production Company to join. He doesn't work as an assistant director or a photographer, so he actually stole the job of the screenwriter, and seems to be planning to go back to Hong Kong with Kang Jianfei for post-editing.

This guy just came to steal his teacher. The reason is that the movie he made just hit the street and his face was bruised. He wanted to learn how to shoot commercial movies from Kang Jianfei, an international director.

Zhang Yimou is a good young man with pursuits, and he doesn't want to make **** rural literary films all his life. After "Red Sorghum" won the award, this fellow has been thinking about transforming into a commercial director.

Last year, with the support of a local tyrant, Zhang Yimou began planning to shoot urban commercial films. As a result, Zhang Yimou didn't want to shoot halfway through the preliminary work, because he didn't feel like shooting urban films at all.

But the local tyrant friend had already spent more than 90,000 yuan in his money, and Zhang Yimou still couldn't do the unethical thing that he did not do halfway, so he asked his friend for help and got a script for a modern anti-terrorist war movie, and he just started shooting it. .

The protagonists of this anti-terrorist film include Gong Li, Ge You, Wang Xueqi and others. After 20 years, it is definitely a big cast. However, Zhang Yimou was really in no mood to shoot this kind of subject, so he just finished filming the anti-terrorist film called "Code-named Jaguar" in 27 days. After its release, there was so much scolding that Zhang Yimou was so frightened that he dared not admit that the film was his. shot.

Hearing that Kang Jianfei came to the capital to film, Zhang Yimou, who had nothing to do and was depressed and aggrieved, ran to join in the fun.

Wu Zhenyu, holding the original work of Fan Kuan that he had just picked up, walked back to the store with his third uncle Zeng Jiang, and happened to jump on Zhang Dan, who came out of the store.

Zhang Yimou looked at the two cameras in front of him, one was using the orbit to take a shot, and the other was using the jib to lift the camera to take a bird's-eye view. He couldn't help shaking his head, this is not a special plot, and there is no metaphor in it, it's just to pretend to be cool, does the camera need to be so fancy?

When it was almost evening, Kang Jianfei finally announced that he would call it quits, and two more interior scenes of the antique store would be finished tomorrow.

"Director Kang, it's almost time, let's go together." Zhang Yimou looked at his watch and said.

"Let's go." Kang Jianfei threw the guide tube to the field staff and walked towards the end of the street at Liulichang.

Someone was treating guests at a nearby restaurant, Kang Jianfei just went over to eat, and Zhang Yimou was the protagonist.

When Kang Jianfei and Zhang Yimou came to the hotel's private room, everyone else had already arrived. Except for Gong Li, Xu Ke was also sitting in the room.

"Mr. Kang, Mr. Zhang, thank you two for your praise!" A middle-aged handsome man in his 40s stood up and shook hands with Kang Jianfei and Zhang Yimou with a smile.

"It's an old acquaintance, Mr. Gan doesn't need to be polite." Kang Jianfei laughed.

This middle-aged handsome guy is named Gan Guoliang. He was a student of the first phase of the wireless training class. Before graduating, he started to do the behind-the-scenes planning work for the TV station. Program director, in charge of TVB's TV and variety shows.

Until Fang Yihua took over TVB, Gan Guoliang naturally became a thorn in Fang Yihua's eyes because of his excessive power in TVB. Looking for the reason for the failure of several refined dramas, Gan Guoliang was deprived of TVB's rights little by little, and finally left the TVB in frustration.

In another time and space, shortly after Gan Guoliang left TVB, he was invited by Li Chaoren to serve as the director of Satellite TV Chinese Channel, building Satellite TV Chinese Channel into the first international Chinese media covering many countries around the world. After the satellite TV Chinese station was enlarged, Gan Guoliang became the president of the group again, and developed the TV business to non-Chinese speaking countries in Asia. Until the Chinese Channel of Satellite TV was renamed Phoenix Satellite TV, Gan Guoliang still served as the management work in it.

It can be said that the Phoenix Satellite TV in the original time and space is the country that Gan Guoliang laid down.

In this time and space, Kang Jianfei founded Macau Satellite TV ahead of schedule, and the Satellite TV Chinese Channel, founded by Li Chaoren last year, could not compete with Macau Satellite TV at all, and is now in a state of half-dead. And Gan Guoliang was recommended to be the director of Macau Satellite TV not long after tvb left office.

There are three people who recommended Gan Guoliang to Kang Jianfei, one is Yu Zheng, the gold medal host of Phoenix TV and Macau Satellite TV, one is the talented director Xu Ke, and the other is Liu Zhenwei, who was still working as a movie planner at DreamWorks. These three are friends of Gan Guoliang. Liu Zhenwei's best friend Wang Jiawei was born in the first TVB choreographer training class, while Gan Guoliang was the choreographer teacher of that training class. It can be said that Wang Jiawei was taught by Gan Guoliang.

As for the meeting in Beijing this time, it is because Yu Zheng and Gan Guoliang jointly opened a film company in Beijing. As for the production team, the lineup is even more luxurious. Li Bihua's screenwriter, Zhang Yimou's director, Gong Li's heroine, Cheng Xiaodong's Wuzhi, Xu Ke's producer, Bao Dexi's photography, Huang Zhan and Gu Jiahui's soundtrack...

This lineup is top-notch in Hong Kong, and the ability to get together is purely based on Gan Guoliang's interpersonal relationship.

Xu Ke just came over today, while Wu Zhi Cheng Xiaodong is still busy with work in Hong Kong. It will take some time for the film to officially start shooting.

In another time and space, the director of "Ancient and Modern Wars of Qin Terracotta Warriors" is Cheng Xiaodong, and Zhang Yimou is the male lead. In fact, according to Gan Guoliang's original plan, Zhang Yimou was to be the director, but this guy just made a commercial film that hit the streets. After getting the script, he felt intimidated, and finally gave up the director's seat to the martial arts director Cheng Xiaodong.

"Old Xu, your studio has made a movie in two years, and you have the time to come to the mainland to be a producer." Kang Jianfei sat down and joked, not afraid that the producer Gan Guoliang would be unhappy.

Xu Ke shook his head and sighed, "There's no way~lightnovelpub.net~ I make friends carelessly, and I can't even push them away."

The two of them sang together, but Gan Guoliang didn't get angry at all. He smiled and said, "Those who are capable work hard. I can rest assured that Lao Xu will take care of the film."

The relationship between the few people is still good, and Kang Jianfei is still Gan Guoliang's boss, because now Gan Guoliang is also the director of Macau Satellite TV. Even DreamWorks is one of the main investors in "Ancient and Modern Wars of Qin Terracotta Warriors", because Gan Guoliang and Yu Zheng don't have so much money in their hands, so they can only pull investment everywhere to make a movie.

The main purpose of today's meal was to get everyone together, mainly because Kang Jianfei happened to be filming in the capital, and there were no disputes over interests at the dinner table, so the meal was lively and comfortable.

Gong Li had graduated from Chinese opera a few months ago. At this time, she was sitting next to Kang Jianfei, adding vegetables and wine to Kang Jianfei from time to time. Anyone could see that the relationship between the two of them was unusual.

"Go to my place tonight!" Gong Li suddenly whispered in Kang Jianfei's ear while Gan Guoliang and Xu Ke went to the bathroom together. r1152
