Chapter 1437: industrialized film

   Chapter 1437 Industrialized Movies

   "The costume martial arts film directed by Xu Ke is not bad."

   Hearing Xia Jingxing's words, everyone shook their heads one after another. It was not good to look for someone, but they had to find a dead pokemon, or a poke director who had filmed "The Legend of Shushan".

  Huang Huazhong advised: "Mr. Xia, I didn't pour cold water on you, Xu Ke is really not suitable to be the director of "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman".

   I won't say anything else, I'll just say a little.

As soon as the audience sees the director's name of "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman", they will associate this film with the "Shushan Legend" released nine years ago. Bad impression, directly concluded that this is a bad film. "

Wang Changtian stood up to help and said: "Yes, the "Shushan Biography" directed by Xu Ke has ruined a lot of his reputation. The entire film invested nearly 100 million Hong Kong dollars, and finally only received 10 million box office in Hong Kong and 20 million in mainland China. The producer is called blood loss.

   At the same time, it also caused bad consequences. No Hong Kong or mainland film company dared to touch special effects blockbusters. "

  Yu Dong also expressed his opinion: "Originally, this movie had a sequel plan. In the end, due to the box office failure, the sequel project was stopped, and the development of animation and other peripheral projects also stopped."

   A group of people tried to dissuade Xia Jingxing. From the bottom of their hearts, they still didn't want "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" to hit the streets.

  Because once the movie hits the street, Mr. Xia's film and television dream will be broken, and it is very likely that he will slap the table: return the money to me, stop playing!

   Then make a yarn!

   The big guy still hopes that Mr. Xia will always maintain an enthusiastic interest in the film and television industry. The wool has only been plucked once, and the big fat sheep has run away, which is enough to make everyone sigh.

   So they discussed that as much as possible to promote the success of "Shushan Swordsman Biography", at least not to lose both the box office and word of mouth.

   It’s just to lose some money, and Mr. Xia probably doesn’t care.

  If all the fans all over the country are yelling, then Mr. Xia may be disheartened and withdraw from the circle.

  Xia Jingxing didn't think that these people's suggestions were exaggerated, and it was rare for him to tell the truth.

   Xu Ke has a problem! And it's still a big problem!

   But even so, he is still the most suitable director for Xianxia films in China.

  Xia Jingxing has seen "The Legend of Shushan" before, and recently found out that this movie has been watched repeatedly.

   Finally came to the conclusion that both the long board and the short board are obvious.

   The most impressive scene in this film is that Master Gu Yue played by Komaeda, in front of his apprentice and lover Chen Haonan, shattered into thousands of pieces like broken porcelain...

   To be honest, the special effects were really amazing to Xia Jingxing, and I also felt that this way of dying was quite artistic, a bit like a fairy.

   There is also a Dunhuang-style flying dress of Komae, from the bun to the clothes are very elegant, very traditional charm.

   But the shortcomings are also obvious. The female master and the male apprentice are actually a pair of lovers, which is so special... Japanese fans must like it.

   It seems that the setting in the play is like this, and it belongs to the characteristic inheritance method of the sect.

   However, no matter how exquisite and spectacular the special effects are, it cannot offset the flaws of the plot. Many fans feel dizzy after watching it, indicating that they do not understand many places.

   Therefore, Xia Jingxing felt that Xu Ke needed a good team of screenwriters, and at the same time, a movie could not tell the story of the grievances and grievances in the world of Sword Immortals, and it needed to be made into a series, from the beginning to the end, to tell the story.

   And "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" is a work of the Republic of China. The story is probably a battle between good and evil, and the elements are too monotonous.

   In addition to the special effects fighting scenes, we should also tap the points that the audience is interested in now.

   For example, upgrade to fight monsters, form a group to play dungeons, how to make a female Bodhisattva…

  Marvel's superheroes have actually played a role, and Shuangwen routines are loved by audiences all over the world.

   Therefore, "Shushan Swordsman Biography" needs to undergo a lot of adaptations, refurbish some old-fashioned and old-fashioned characters and stories, and reassemble them into ten films.

   For the Confucianism and Taoism culture in the novel, you can also do some excavation, for example, the costumes of Dunhuang murals are very good to be re-engraved into the movie.

   Besides, the blessed places like Mount Emei and Mount Kunlun that appear in the novels can actually be put into the movie.

   "Avatar" all came to Zhangjiajie to shoot, and it was shot like an alien planet. However, the exterior scenes of many Chinese movies were shot like a bunch of flying, blinding the scenery of the great rivers and mountains.

  Unfortunately, Xia Jingxing didn't study directing, otherwise he would have given up business to become an artist just like Jack Ma.

   Forget it, let’s find professional people to do professional things!

After everyone had finished speaking, Cai Yi Nong, the company with the smallest company and the smallest position, said, "Mr. Xia, in fact, I think Director Xu Ke's artistic taste is quite in line with Xianxia movies like "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman", but he should It takes a strong team."

  Xia Jingxing's eyes lit up and finally heard some different sounds.

  Huang Huazhong, Wang Changtian, Yu Dong and others were all a little upset, what did this stupid woman say? Do you want to take President Xia to the ditch?

   And they have already unified the caliber in advance, Cai Yi Nong stood up and expressed different opinions at this time, which was a bit disgusting.

   Cai Yi Nong didn't seem to see the gloomy faces. If he was offended, he would be offended. Compared with entering Mr. Xia's eyes, everything can be thrown away.

   "You can be specific."

  Xia Jingxing cast an encouraging look at Cai Yi Nong. Tang Dynasty Films and Television has filmed many good dramas in recent years, especially Xianjian I and Xianjian III, which have set off a nationwide viewing craze.

  Unfortunately, I went to shoot the braid scene after that, and the pattern suddenly became smaller.

   "Mr. Xia, what you said about the Oriental Xianxia universe is actually an imitation of the Marvel universe. This is a very large film and television project. It may take five, ten, or even longer to complete the construction of the world view.

  Compared with the industrialized films of Hollywood, our domestic films are workshop style.

   In order to complete the construction of the Oriental Xianxia universe in a coherent, efficient and high-quality manner, we need to establish an industrialized film mechanism similar to Hollywood.

  From the film project approval, that is, the pre-production preparation stage, the screenwriter department writes the film script according to the story selected by the producer, and the director writes the sub-shot script;

   In the filming stage, the production is performed by the director under the supervision of the producer;

   In the post-production stage, the ownership of editing rights.

  Hollywood has a very complete set of processes. Directors, screenwriters, producers, and actors restrict each other and perform their duties, rather than the director alone.

   This is like a production line that can continuously produce industrial products - movies. "

  Huang Huazhong laughed, "Mr. Cai, I'm going to refute this, the national conditions are different, can we imitate Hollywood to establish a film industry system?

   For the time being, let’s not talk about this circle or that circle, just say Xu Ke, he is a big director, can he tolerate being a screw?

   Here, the screenwriter filmed the script on his desk and said, "Just follow this pattern and you can't change it."

   The producer on the other side was staring at him at all times, and reminded: the straw hat is a bit expensive, and the budget cannot be exceeded.

   Do you think such a big director is willing to do this kind of straight-forward work? "

   Cai Yi Nong was silent, because Huang Huazhong's words were not easy to refute, and there was no need for her to refute.

   Xia Jingxing waved his hand, "Old Huang, you are overthinking this!

   In fact, Jupin Films and Domestic Films have sent several batches of students to Hollywood to "study abroad", ranging from screenwriters to directors to producers.

   The reason why I have been dragging on "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" is that I want to wait for this group of people to return to China and complete the basic industrialized film framework by shooting the first sequel film. "

  Huang Huazhong frowned as he listened, why did he feel that President Xia had gone astray?

  Revival of the industry is good, but it is different from the industrialized film.

   "Of course, this is just an attempt, and whether it will succeed in the end is still between the two."

  Xia Jingxing looked around the crowd with his eyes and said, "In this process, we definitely need the full support of everyone here.

   This is actually an exploration for the entire industry. I think everyone should get involved. The flames are high when everyone gathers firewood. What do you think? "

   Xia Jing's jargon is all about this, who would dare not show face?

   For a while, everyone in the room spoke out in support.

  Xia Jingxing smiled and said, "Since everyone supports me so much, I also prepared a small gift for everyone.

  Old Zhang, take out the present and show it to the big guy. "
