China Entertainment: Let you shoot for charity and make tens of billions?

Marvel Studios.

"Hahaha! This time Warner shot itself in the foot. The box office market of Dragon Country is indeed good and its performance is very strong, but when making movies, how can it still use Chinese directors? Ordinary small investments can't Forget it, for such a big production, the box office will definitely be ruined by then!"

These people are very contemptuous of Warner's decision.

"Our rivals in the superhero movie series are only Warner, and Sony is half as big! If this movie fails at the box office, then they will definitely be severely damaged! Then they will not touch superheroes again in a short time. movie, this can be regarded as giving us a chance!”

"Hahaha, if that's the case, then we still have to thank this Dragon Kingdom director! He helped us defeat our opponent!"

Whether it is the media of the Star Flag Nation, the Hollywood film companies, or ordinary fans and audiences.

Most people are not optimistic about Batman this time.

Because I feel that Su Yi’s previous works don’t match well with Batman’s works.

Even the famous director Spielberg made a comment.

"I haven't seen much of director Su Yi's previous works. I have only seen clips of "Parasite". It is undeniable that he is a very talented director, but because he is too young, he may not be able to understand some of them. A deep plot. Although I paid close attention to this director before, his subsequent works were too positive, so I don’t think it’s suitable for a new Batman film.”

There are many famous directors in Hollywood, but there are not many directors of Spielberg's level.

It wasn't that no one supported Su Yi, but their voices were too soft.

Most of them chose silence.

Especially after the role of the clown was finalized, it became even more reviled.

After all, Heathless is not very well-known now, and most of his previous roles were gay roles. This is okay originally, after all, this kind of thing is considered normal in North America, but this will become an aspect of attacking him.

····

Warner Pictures.

"Director Su, if the previous actor is not satisfied, we can change him to a more famous one. But I don't think this new actor is suitable! And his image doesn't look like a clown."

Diane's tone was a little helpless, because he didn't want to intervene, but the boss was always wavering.

This additional investment was ultimately made by China Film Han Sanping.

China Film Group suddenly became the second largest investor.

And he also enjoys one-third of the box office share. Han Sanping's move can be considered a bit risky.

After all, investing 8 million yuan in national currency at once is still overseas.

Suddenly this movie became a Sino-US co-production. Although it received greater attention, it also represented a huge risk.

Han Sanping trusted Su Yi unconditionally, but the amount was really large.

But there is only one thing after changing from Warner's sole proprietorship to a joint venture, and that is that Su Yi will not be replaced easily.

The movie is getting more attention and is now even becoming world entertainment news.

Su Yi's name also instantly became popular in entertainment newspapers in various countries.

The director from the Dragon Kingdom has begun directing big-budget Hollywood movies!

For Su Yi, this is a milestone directorial achievement.

For international large-scale productions, it is better to cooperate with Hollywood film companies and co-produce between the two countries.

Su Yi indeed lacks such directorial experience.

"Mr. Diane, the filming will start soon. You'd better help me find more shooting locations. Chicago and New York are both good places in my opinion. And there are some big explosion scenes, which need to be applied for in advance. "

Su Yi didn't care about any resistance or anything like that. In the world before he traveled through, there were similar things.

Heath Ledger's Joker was initially resisted by many people, but he became a god in one role and became the most classic Joker in history.

Whether it's a movie or a TV show, no one can surpass Heath Ledger's Joker!

Seeing Su Yi being so determined, Diane smiled helplessly.

This man is even more 'stubborn' than Spielberg.

But the more he behaves like this, the more at ease Diane feels. When filming "12 Years a Slave", who could have imagined that a work filmed in such a short period of time would achieve such high box office and even win an Oscar? Award winning!

It even triggered black marches in North America and the West!

But seeing Su Yi's relaxed look, Dai An's heart moved.

Is it possible that Su Yi did this on purpose?

He was startled by his own thoughts, but it shouldn't be possible.

Because this publicity is almost always negative!

Su Yi ignored Diane.

The filming, which seems to be burning money, has already begun.

Preliminary location selection: Chicago!

In fact, as a time traveler, even if he knows some things in the future, he doesn't need to completely copy them. He doesn't have the memory.

Just choose the right place and you’re good to go.

"Director Xie, the scene this time may not be that big, nor is it as shocking as the original Magic City scene."

Su Yi turned around and smiled at Xie Jin.

There was excitement on Xie Jin's face, and he also knew that it was impossible to completely recreate this.

To have such a formation is already very impressive.

Xie Jin heard clearly just now that Chicago police officers would participate in filming except when they were on duty.

There are also many extras, and the explosion scenes are even more magnificent.

"It's my wish to be able to see these things before I die - but the protagonist has already gone to learn fighting skills. What about that important supporting role? Why didn't we see it again after auditioning for it once?"

Xie Jin was asking about Heath Ledger. Although he didn't know much about foreign superhero movies, he could still tell which character was outstanding after looking at the script.

The three most outstanding characters in this movie are Batman, the Joker and Two-Face.

We're all ready to start filming, but we haven't seen Heath Ledger a few times.

····

Chicago.

Batman: The Dark Knight filming set.

The entire street has been blocked, and a group of heavily armed policemen are guarding the door.

The scene was a bit messy. If there weren't those cameras, people who didn't know would have thought there was a real gunfight.

Su Yi stood in front of the camera, admiring Heath Ledger's performance.

To be honest, this not-so-famous actor has really good acting skills.

The oil paint on that surface made everyone else feel a little scared.

This costume was 'designed' by him. It is actually the image of the previous life. It is very classic and makes people feel scared.

Diane was also present. Although Warner had many projects this time, the one with the highest investment was Batman.

Even with the big killer in hand, the investment in Harry Potter, a series that is sure to make money without losing money, is still not as high as that of Batman.

There were many people surrounding it, including many directors.

But this time the police in the show are all real.

When they are not on a shooting mission, they have another mission, which is to 'on duty' and not let others in.

One of the directors, with a Chinese face, was also looking inside.

The faces of the media reporters on the side suddenly flashed with excitement.

Because although the person in front of him is not from the Dragon Kingdom, he is still famous.

Wen Ziren!

This Oshu nationality director was not born in the Dragon Country, but his ancestors were from the Dragon Country.

I came here to watch the filming this time because I was attracted by the reputation.

Nowadays, if we want to talk about the famous Dragon Kingdom directors in the world, Zhang Yimou and Ang Lee are all well-known figures.

Zhang Yimou, in particular, is now in charge of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games and has received attention at home and abroad.

But if there is a director who can cause more topics, it is Su Yi!

The first of the two international movies filmed affected the conflict between the people of the Bangzi Country and the Star Flag Country. After the movie was released, several fights and even murders occurred that shocked the world, leading to the Both sides dislike each other.

The second one caused black riots, which indirectly worsened the economic crisis in the Star Flag Country. Later, a program even carefully investigated the impact of the black riots.

Of course, this is not the mainstream, and the Star Flag Nation did not admit that it was caused by the movie. It only said that it was a trigger.

But directors in the entertainment industry all know that this is the power of Su Yi's works!

Wen Ziren is one of them.

This legendary Chinese director has also shot many works.

Saw, Furious 7, Dead Silence. Even when DC movies were about to decline, movies like Aquaman were made.

It was also very early when he became famous in Hollywood.

Although he was not born in the Dragon Kingdom, he admires the culture of his ancestral country very much. When he was studying abroad in Oshu, he also majored in the classification of ethnic groups in the Dragon Kingdom, and he is very interested in some cultures.

I originally wanted to have a good chat with Su Yi through my connections.

It turned out to be a disappointment, so don't talk about him anymore.

Cameron said before that he wanted to come and have a look, but Su Yi didn't have time to pay attention.

Maybe they will become competitors.

Because Cameron is also preparing for "Avatar."

Facing such an opponent, Su Yi had no confidence in winning.

"Director Wen Ziren, are you here to give guidance to the younger generation?" Some reporters came directly to interview.

I looked around and saw that I was surrounded.

Wen Ziren was a little helpless, but he also knew that these reporters would not let him leave easily.

"Not to mention giving advice, director Su Yi may be young, but he is very powerful. I have been watching some of his works about the traditional culture of the Dragon Kingdom. This is my shortcoming. It is also something I admire very much. Director Su Yi is good at portraying emotions and human nature, and I came here to learn from him."

Wen Ziren said it very modestly, because he also knew that a director's talent has nothing to do with age.

"Wen Zi is the director. So, do you think the DC movie directed by Su Yi will be successful?"

The reporter's question was very pointed.

It seems that Wen Ziren is being forced to take sides, either by choosing Su Yi or by offending Su Yi.

If you want to gain a foothold in Hollywood, you can't have too many political leanings, at least you can't obviously like Dragon Kingdom.

This is the main theme of Hollywood in this era.

"I don't know how it will be at the box office, but I think director Su Yi will definitely be successful in terms of reputation and box office."

Wen Ziren also spoke very cleverly.

Boom!

While they were being interviewed, there was suddenly the sound of explosions.

At this scene, when Wen Ziren saw that the reporters were a little panicked, he hurriedly found a gap in the crowd and got out.

These reporters will definitely not report according to their own answers. The more they say, the more mistakes they make!

2008, February.

People are still in great joy.

This Olympics ended perfectly.

The Olympic opening ceremony was a surprise and attracted the attention of the world.

And it also produced a huge chain reaction, making the tourism industry of Dragon Country prosper.

As predicted before, the Olympic Games not only burn money, but also drive the internal and external circulation of the economy.

The tourism industry has surged for a while, especially around the Olympics.

The most important thing is that because of Su Yi's previous documentaries, the tourism industry in various places was vigorously rectified, so it has a good reputation.

Most of the news during this period was about Dragon Kingdom ranking first in the number of medals, and traveling to various places to 'do missions'.

The so-called tasks are the online real-name check-in system implemented by various places following the new model of Dianzhou.

Some people with obsessive-compulsive disorder really want to get all the check-ins.

Although it is not difficult to check in, it is not that easy to get. Those who are quick have already obtained all the openings in a certain urban area, posted them on the Internet, and were envied by countless people.

"Why haven't you heard from Su Yi during this period?"

"Yes, isn't he the director of tourism and culture promotion? There is no news during this period."

"Who knows, the last time I saw Su Yi on the news, it seemed like it was July when the Batman movie was being filmed? The Olympics haven't started yet."

Many people on the Internet are talking about Su Yi.

I have been busy watching the Olympic Games during this period. Now that the Olympic Games has ended successfully, and there have been no good works recently, the audience just remembered Su Yi.

"Batman! I've been looking forward to it! I didn't expect this one to be filmed by Su Yi! I really didn't know this news before!"

"China Film and Warner jointly invested in it. I heard that foreign countries are not very optimistic about it!"

"Also... none of the foreign films Su Yi shot before were such large-scale productions. Although Changjin Lake is wonderful, it is a film that belongs to our countrymen after all. This time, we have shot a world-class film."

"The investment alone is 24 billion! I'm looking forward to it just thinking about it! It must be a 3D movie! It's great! There really has been no other 3D movie released for such a long time."

It stands to reason that there are very few 3D movies that can be released during this time period.

Most people spend their budget on the actors' appearance fees and the plot.

After all, shooting this 3D movie is extremely expensive.

Only Su Yi has such courage.

Not to mention netizens and audiences, even the entire Dragon Kingdom entertainment circle is paying attention!

···

Huayi Brothers.

Although it is only one word different from Warner Bros., in terms of strength, it is still far behind.

Su Yi was not in the Dragon Kingdom during this period, so they were quite calm.

The Huayi brothers also recovered from the severe injuries caused by the previous heroic attack.

Because they released a movie this year and it achieved great results.

Love comedy "If You Are the One"!

This was also the script given to them by the fat man Yingda.

And this movie about love also makes Feng Xiaogang cherish it very much.

And because the market was opened up, they also achieved higher box office numbers than ever before.

From 3.25 million before, to 6.5 million now.

Huayi Brothers has finally recovered. Without such a turnaround, it would probably have gone bankrupt.

This time, Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei no longer dare to underestimate Su Yi.

Feng Xiaogang on the side was also reading the newspaper.

This is first-hand news, and the news headlines above are in English.

"Batman: The Dark Knight has been completed! However, although it has been completed, the post-production period will take a long time. It should not conflict with the release date of our next movie."

Wang Zhongjun felt relieved after hearing this date.

Only a fool would watch Su Yi's movie in the same time slot now!

With such popularity and box office appeal, they have to avoid it no matter what they film.

Even Chen Kaige understands this truth now.

"The comments abroad are very bad, they are all ridiculing. Why is this scene so familiar?"

Feng Xiaogang put down the newspaper and frowned slightly.

Such a young director has grown up so fast.

It seems that the events of 2005 are still vivid in my mind. I gave Su Yi face and went to Liu Yifei's coming-of-age ceremony.

Now three years have passed.

Liu Yifei became an international actress. Although Red Star House is not as big as Huayi in terms of business, it still made a lot of money and became a well-known entertainment company.

As for Su Yi's achievements, it goes without saying.

Take off on the spot!

"Can we not be familiar with it? When Chen Kaige mobilized us, we should not get too close to Su Yi. At that time, when Su Yi was filming Parasite, we were quite disdainful."

Wang Zhonglei smiled bitterly and told the situation at that time.

"Okay, let's just avoid this day. We have to prepare for a new movie. This time I heard that Shanghai Film Studio is interested in shooting a new movie-"

In fact, the original partner of Shanghai Film Studio was Su Yi, but Su Yi really has no time now.

I have been abroad all this time.

"Director Feng, what do you think of the box office this time?"

Feng Xiaogang shook his head slightly, feeling a little uncertain in his heart.

In terms of public opinion, Su Yi's situation abroad this time was simply terrible.

Because this is a classic DC superhero movie.

With the comparison of Iron Man, the audience may be more picky.

After all, both comics are classics and famous all over the world.

"A US$3 million investment! What a generous investment!"

Feng Xiaogang did not answer directly, but sighed.

It really shocked him.

Compared with him, his box office is like a child playing house.

"Okay, we shouldn't be the ones having a headache. There will be more international movies next year, including disaster movies, classic IP movies, and animation movies. If we rely solely on the Chinese market, we will not surpass those Hollywood blockbusters! And if this time If it fails at the international box office, then Su Yi's golden statue will be broken! Where can there be an invincible person?"

Feng Xiaogang looked at the newspaper in his hand and was stunned for a moment.

News headlines in newspapers——

"Many companies in Hollywood are not optimistic about the box office of "The Dark Knight" and even think that the box office will not exceed US$1 million!" (End of Chapter)
