Huayu started as a substitute director

Chapter 565: Love turns into family affection

Liu Tianxian finally saw why this man could play those people like quails. Not only was he smart, but he was also shameless enough.

Although she knew that Fang Hong was shameless before, she basically never participated in it personally. Fang Hong was the one who did it and she just watched from the sidelines, so she was not clear about the specific details.

After the two of them got together, Fang Hong remained silent for a few years.

This time she participated in person. The man told her all the plans in detail and showed her how he did it himself. Only then did she have a deep feeling.

No wonder Fatty Yu was scared when she saw her man. It was probably because she felt powerless facing such a man and she simply couldn't think of any way to deal with him.

It turns out that everyone’s success is not accidental.

Of course, she did not disagree with Fang Hong's approach. As long as it did not hurt anyone, she agreed.

The movie itself is a product, and products themselves need marketing. No matter how high-level you are or how wide your channels are, you still need marketing, and Disney is no exception.

Because whether you can market your movie depends on you, and whether the audience watches your movie depends on you. If you want the audience to watch your movie, you must make them interested in and want to watch it.

The initiative lies in the hands of the audience. It doesn't matter how powerful you are. You don't need marketing.

If there is no marketing and the channels controlled can represent everything, then Wanda is simply invincible. As the world's largest cinema operator, it can show any movie it wants.

That's not the case. If the audience has no interest in watching it, it would be a waste of time to release it and you would be operating at a loss.

What cinemas like most are those movies that are highly popular and big hits, which have a lot of traffic and can make a lot of money from snacks and drinks.

"The principal said that Mr. Wang and Fatty Yu are monsters!"

"They also said that Mr. Wang and Fatty Yu were rumormongers!"

Such news immediately made headlines in major media outlets. In the era of mobile self-media, information spreads very quickly.

It doesn’t matter whether the reporters believe it or not. What’s important is that the two sides argue with each other, so that major media outlets can report news and have hot topics.

Xiao Wang was very angry when he saw the principal turning the tables and accusing them of spreading rumors about him.

"Damn, how could there be such a person? I have nothing better to do than to make up rumors about him and bring him attention."

"There's nothing to be angry about. That's how it is in the business world. You suppress me and I suppress you. Besides, we just met on a narrow road." The king always suggested to let it go.

The Spring Festival period has its own particularity. Unlike other summer and New Year periods where the screening dates can be staggered, all the films in this period will be released on the same day.

It is a completely zero-sum game competition.

"What should we do now?" asked Mr. Wang.

Not only did he ask this question, but Mr. Qi from Yaolai, who also invested in Fang Long's "Dark Blade", also called to ask this question.

For this movie, Fang Long's salary alone was over 100 million, plus the salaries of two Hollywood actors and a Korean actor.

It can be said that the film's salary alone accounted for about 2.5 to 3 million yuan, the expenses were quite large, and the cost was 4 million yuan.

Unlike "Gravity", where the highest pay for the actors was less than 10 million, the highest pay was for Liu Tianxian, which was several million.

The male lead, Guo Jinfei, was cast with just a few hundred thousand dollars, and there were no other actors, so the extras just looked dead. It was equivalent to 99% of the cost being spent on special effects.

Not only did they ask what to do, even Fatty Yu was asking what to do, although the investment amount for his "The Man from Macau 2" was not as exaggerated as that for "Dragon Blade".

But it also costs between 1.5 million and 2 million, which is equivalent to about 6 million to recover the cost, and all of them use big-name actors.

Although their movie stars do not have the international influence that Van Loong has, as long as the movie stars Van Loong, there is still a market for it overseas.

The film will be introduced and released in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, South Korea and other places. This is the amazing thing about Van Loon, which other stars cannot achieve.

This is also the reason why his pay is high, and also the reason why Jet Li's pay is high. He has international influence and is recognized by overseas film producers.

Of course, how the box office performs is another matter.

"Wolf Totem" was invested by a state-owned enterprise and filmed by a foreign director. There are many co-productions in this era. State-owned enterprises can handle it, so don't worry about it.

The lighting is okay, so the company bought some shares of "Zhong Kui Fu Yao" and it won't lose much money if it fails at the box office.

The main controller of this film is Dasheng International Media. The boss of this company is An Xiaofen, a very powerful person.

He used to be the president and chairman of Star Media and Times Media, and later founded Dasheng International Media.

Star Media is China Film Star Media Cinema. The two belong to different entities, but the fact that they can cooperate with China Film to establish a branded cinema shows the strength behind it should not be underestimated.

It is worth mentioning that "Portrait of Nineteen Years Old in Summer" was led by An Xiaofen, and everything from the script to the production to the selection of actors was led by this person.

The online rumor that Chen Jinfei invested in this movie is pure nonsense. He did not invest at all. The haters are forcibly linking Liu Tianxian to it.

It's normal for a small-investment movie to control costs and hire young actors. Where do all the conspiracy theories come from saying that these are resources provided by Chen Jinfei?

Can you still hire big stars to star in a movie with a total investment of less than 10 million yuan? You have to be able to afford it.

Yang Caiyu can play the second female lead in Feng Kuzi's "Youth", so can't she be the female lead in a small movie?
You should know that she has another title: Feng Girl!
Just as various parties were having different reactions to Fang Hong's remarks to the media, the "Liu Tianxian Watches Gravity with You" event was underway.

After the reporter interviewed Liu Tianxian and Guo Fan about some trivial issues, the fans entered the IMAX 3D theater one by one under the arrangement of the on-site staff.

This cinema is very large, with a giant screen and 1200 seats, just enough to accommodate the people scheduled to attend.

The media also has a special area for them to shoot and collect materials. Of course, they cannot face the giant screen, but can only face the reactions of the live audience or the interactions of the stars after the movie is over.

Fang Hong, Liu Tianxian, and Guo Fan sat in the front row, leaving the good seats for other audience members. The lights went out, and the movie started on the big screen, still with the opening animation of "Chang'e holding a rabbit".

However, this opening animation is somewhat different from the previous ones. It has become more delicate and colorful, and the facial contour of "Chang'e" has become more exquisite and three-dimensional. The more you look at it, the more she looks like Liu Tianxian.

Obviously it has been redesigned and is no longer as rough as before.

"Isn't this Liu Tianxian?" someone whispered.

"Yes, it looks very similar!"

"It seems that the principal really loves Liu Tianxian." A famous female fan clasped her hands together in front of her mouth, feeling very envious.

I wish she could find a man like this someday and put her face at the beginning of the movie.

Liu Tianxian also noticed the difference in the opening animation, but did not say anything. Instead, she turned to look at the man next to her, smiled charmingly, and raised her hand towards him.

Fang Hong took a look and then grabbed it.

The two held hands tightly, just like they did a few years ago, except that at that time their relationship was just beginning and it was Fang Hong who extended his hand to her.

And this time it was Liu Tianxian who extended the hand!
Although the person who took the initiative changed, the relationship between the two also changed, from before marriage to after marriage, and their feelings also changed from romance to family affection.

"Let's watch a movie." Liu Tianxian looked at him.

Fang Hong nodded in response, his hand being held tightly by a soft, slender hand.

It seems like a lifetime ago, and five or six years have passed in a flash. The two are still watching movies together and chatting about movie plots. Their original intentions have never changed.

The two turned their eyes to the big screen. The movie opened with a dark, vast and lonely universe. Because it was in a low-Earth space orbit, a long shot showed the blue earth.

Since it is a 3D movie, the audience marvels at the magnificence of the blue earth along with the actors, as if they could touch it right before their eyes. It is very shocking and makes people's hearts surge.

I'm amazed that our country's special effects technology is so advanced that it can rival Hollywood.

They didn't even think about the fact that it took Fang Hong five years of preparation to make such a film that demonstrated his strength.

The long shot on the big screen also showed two astronauts in space repairing a space telescope.

Apart from the occasional mission instructions and the hero's nagging chatter, the surrounding environment was unusually quiet.

There is no sound medium and no air in space, so the only thing you can hear is the characters talking through the walkie-talkie.

The heroine played by Liu Tianxian is a mission specialist who is repairing a space telescope. She is a little unfamiliar and clumsy as it is her first time in space.

The male lead played by Guo Jinfei is a veteran. In addition to being talkative, he always pays attention to the work of the female lead and gives her guidance.

Except for the characters, the background of this movie is all rendered with special effects. There are no real scenes. Even the spaceships are all rendered with special effects.

There was no real object when the two actors were filming.

Danger soon arrived, and countless space debris attacked this place. Although there was no sound, only the shouting of the two actors on the walkie-talkie, the grand background music still made the audience feel the thrill.

In such a cinema, one can enjoy both visual and auditory enjoyment.

The opening scene showed a thrilling and exciting scene.

"Wow!"

I saw the heroine played by Liu Tianxian, who was thrown out because she had no control over the direction, and kept flipping in the space, with countless fragments passing by her.

Some viewers couldn't help but become nervous, and some almost sat up to rescue the characters. Then they realized they were watching a movie and sat down again. The 3D immersion was too strong.

Fortunately, the heroine was rescued by the hero, and the audience breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Tianxian was also a little nervous when watching the performance. When she was acting, she didn't know what she was doing. She just listened to the director telling her how to act and express her emotions.

Some of the flip shots were done by a stand-in, and she only expressed the tension and sense of urgency.

Acting in such an adventure movie is particularly challenging for acting skills. Although there were basically no scene changes and it was all filmed in one place, with a body double to help, Liu Tianxian also spent a lot of time honing her skills.

It's fine as long as it doesn't look out of place, as long as it's polished again and again, the requirements are not high.

The male lead, Guo Jinfei, has no problem with his acting.

The plot of this movie can be divided into four parts. The first part is: repairing the space telescope in distress.

The second paragraph is: Login to the International Space Station Soyuz 2.

Now comes the second plot. When the two flew back to the space station, they found that their space station had been destroyed.

The original version used slightly heavy shots to depict the astronauts who had died, but here they are just dead, so it’s not so heavy-handed to avoid disturbing the children.

This shows that all the other astronauts have died and there are only two survivors.

Having lost contact with the ground again, the two had to go to the International Space Station, where Soyuz 1 and 2 were located.

There is a scene here where the hero leads the heroine to the space station with a rope and sees a small dot. It looks very close, but it actually spans the entire China.

This is a long shot that allows people to feel the emptiness of space, the fear of being able to see everything yet not being able to see anything clearly.
