This Emperor is Only An Actor

Chapter 139 Joining in [800 are ordered and updated]

Wang Jing was as expected by Yue Guan.

Wang Jing didn't even ask about the appointment of a heroine.

In the past, the Xiangcheng entertainment industry was much messier than this.

Relatively speaking, Gao Yuanyuan has at least her acting skills and popularity. Even if she chooses actors publicly, she would have been considering it.

Wang Jing focused on the script.

Although known as the "king of bad movies", Wang Jing certainly didn't want to make a bad movie before shooting. Who would be praised and scolded.

Yue Guan had contacted him before and passed him a first draft of the script. The first draft of the script, Yue Guan, was mainly based on the movie "The Lord of the Demon Slayer". Although there are many highlights, it is actually a bit rough.

Because the original version of "The Lord of the Demon Cult" was originally played by Wang Jing casually, and did not polish it at all.

This movie only took seven days, can you believe it?

This is the filming speed of the Xiangcheng entertainment circle that year. It seems that the most incredible things are the basic operations back then.

After Yueguan, he polished the script again, deleted Zhu Yuanzhang's plot, and adjusted Zhou Zhiruo's personality, which was obviously more mature than the previous plot.

After Wang Jing read the new script that Yue Guan handed him, he digested it for five minutes before speaking slowly: "Yue Guan, if you are a screenwriter, you will definitely be very good."

Yue Guan smiled: "Unfortunately, the status of screenwriters in the entertainment industry is too low, and there is no right to speak."

"Yes, but your script is really good." Wang Jing likes Yue Guan's script, especially this new script: "It's bold, even subversive. If it can achieve the desired effect, I dare not say it becomes a classic. But it will definitely impress movie fans."

"Actually, I feel that way too." Yue Guan was not modest.

There is a plot of Zhu Yuanzhang in the original work of "Yi Tian Shou Long Ji". In the movie version, Zhu Yuanzhang was deleted, and then Zhang Wuji was changed to the emperor. As long as the preparations are in place, the ending will be natural.

The audience will also receive a logical surprise.

However, the problem is not without it.

As a veteran of the directors, Wang Jing can easily see a problem: "The ending of changing Zhang Wuji to Zhu Yuanzhang is absolutely amazing. At least it can increase the box office by tens of millions, but this script cannot be finished. Unless you want to shoot a movie for three hours."

Yue Guan shook his head: "Even if I am willing to shoot for three hours, the theater won't let me show it."

Cinema schedules often have requirements for movies.

If you think about it, you can also know that the shorter the movie, the more times the theater can repeat the show, and the more opportunities to make money.

Therefore, the length of the movie is generally controlled within two hours, and only blockbuster and immature directors will edit the finished movie to more than two hours. The former is self-confidence, the latter is unaware of the heights of the sky.

The original version of "The Lord of the Demon Cult" only takes one and a half hours.

"So you are going to make two movies?" Wang Jing reminded: "This way, the risk will increase a lot, because no one knows whether the first film will succeed."

"Guide Wang."

"Just call me Jingge."

Wang Jing's impression of Yue Guan was getting better and better. He made a benevolence at first, and after a long time, Yue Guan took the initiative to give him money.

Compared to Zhou Xingchi's meeting, there are more things.

Yue Guan didn't hold it either. Wang Jing was more than a round older than him, so he was called Ge.

"Brother Jing, do you think that if we shoot "The Demon Lord of the Dragon Slayer" first, will the box office succeed?" Yue Guan asked actively.

In the analysis of the box office, Wang Jing can still be trusted.

Wang Jing did not immediately answer Yue Guan’s words, but thought very seriously for a minute, and then he thought about it: "It’s really hard to say, your script and the original setting are completely reversed. Zhang Wuji has become a belly. Dark and insidious careerists and avengers, those who expect chivalrous audiences are likely to be disappointed."

"But the logic is very smooth. Zhang Wuji's parents were forced to death by the gang in front of him. He grew up in the cynicism of the Wudang school. It is normal for children who grow up in this environment to have a radical personality and seek revenge, but they are indecisive. The bodhisattva's heart is fake."

Wang Jing nodded: "This is the truth. I like Zhang Wuji in your script better than Zhang Wuji in the original work. Now the audience is also evolving very fast. In theory, this change should be acceptable to the audience, and after all, Zhang Wuji He also insisted on the anti-yuan. Although he was ambitious, he was fine."

This is very important.

For those who want to be emperors, it is an insult to them to use simple good and bad people to define them.

In the general environment of the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the hero who could stand up and shout, there was no loss in the big section, and the small section was not enough to revisit.

The good Zhang Wuji couldn't save the oppressed Han, but the hero Zhu Yuanzhang could.

"Analyzed in this way, the box office of the movie actually depends on the popularity of "The Legend of the Dragon Slayer". Only the more people who know this book, the higher the box office of this movie."

Wang Jing looked at Yue Guan: "Then the release time of this movie can't be before the TV series version of "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji"."

"Yes, but that's not a problem. The TV series are filmed very quickly. Within this year, the TV series version of "Eternal Dragon Slayer" will be broadcasted by UU reading www.uukānshu.com."

"I make movies very quickly," Wang Jing said.

Yue Guan could not refute.

"The Demon Lord of the Legend of the Dragon Slayer" was filmed for seven days, Wang Jing, this is no longer a problem with the fast shooter, it is absolutely shot at the man in seconds.

Compared with Wang Jing, Zhang Jizhong is a younger brother.

People say that making movies requires meticulous care, which is definitely slower than making TV shows. Wang Jing slowly raised a question mark.

The most awesome thing is that although Wang Jing is fast, the quality of his works is really not low.

In other words, the quality of the works he shoots has nothing to do with time.

Gao Yuanyuan interjected: "Are we going to make this movie in 3D?"

"Definitely, "Nine Suns", "The Great Shift of the Universe" and "Tai Chi", including Xuan Ming Shen Palm, all need to be displayed with 3D special effects. The martial arts movie has been in decline for a long time. To attract audiences, some new breakthroughs are needed. Some Big trends must be embraced."

"In this case, the investment will catch up again." Wang Jing looked at Yue Guan: "What is the budget for this movie?"

"Between 100 million and 200 million, most of the investment is spent on post-production."

Wang Jing's eyes lit up: "Her pride, I will take this job."

Because the land area of ​​the Dragon Kingdom now covers the entire Asia, the Dragon Kingdom movie market has naturally expanded a lot compared to the same period in the previous life.

But at the same time, because of national power, the value of Long Yuan is much higher than that of Renminbi.

An investment of 100 million yuan in the current Long Kingdom movie circle is not the top investment, but it is definitely the first big production.

Wang Jing has never directed a blockbuster with an investment of more than 100 million yuan before. This is his first time.
