Although the hostages were rescued, the gangsters were not caught, so it was not over yet.
The police were sure that he would go to the trading location to get money, so they ambush the Flying Tigers nearby.
However, Luo Lie had already dug a hole in the trash can where the money was placed.
He also used this to divert the attention of the police, kidnapped Guan Zhilin and planted a bomb on her.
Luo Lie took Guan Zhilin and fled to the subway. Yang Ye chased after him, and the final battle came.
The two actually challenged each other on the roof of a speeding subway car, making the audience look stupid. How could they still play like this?
Of course Luo Lie can't beat Yang Ye, but Luo Lie holds the bomb's remote control in his hand.
He said meanly if you fucking fight back, I will throw this away and blow up your thirteenth aunt to death.
Yang Ye had no choice but to lie down and take the beating. Luo Lie beat Yang Ye while taunting him: "You bad guy, you fight me? Do you think you are smart?"
The audience was furious, when Yang Ye suddenly saw the indicator light on the top of the tunnel.
The thing was installed very low, just above the car. He almost hit it when he climbed into the car.
So he grabbed the remote control with one hand and pushed Luo Lie's head hard with the other.
The subway passed by quickly, "click", Luo Lie's head was gone!
Yang Ye said before that he wanted Luo Lie's head to be screwed off, but now he has done what he said, and the audience burst into applause.
The villain is also dead, it’s time to end, another big scene.
Due to the previous gunfight in the subway, the subway is now out of control and cannot be stopped. The road ahead is under maintenance again.
And Guan Zhilin was handcuffed by Luo Lie and leaned against the subway handrail. Yang Ye didn't have the key and couldn't unlock it at all, so he could only wait to die.
At the last moment, Yang Ye accelerated the subway and derailed it.
Later, he protected Guan Zhilin, and the two of them hugged the subway handrail together.
The big scene is here. A subway rushes out, with sparks and lightning all the way. It rushes out of the unbuilt subway station and onto the road.
...
As soon as the movie ended, many people had no time to applaud, but left their seats and went to the toilet.
Throughout the movie, there are frequent incidents that make people dizzying. From beginning to end, it is almost the climax, and there is no urine point in the whole movie.
While watching, some female viewers were so nervous that they grabbed hold of their companions, causing their arms to turn blue.
Actually, this movie is not without bugs. There are many nonsense and it cannot stand up to scrutiny.
For example, how can a bus fly there?
When I woke up, the coincidence that there was a camera in the bus was too much of a coincidence.
How to climb to the top of the subway?
In the end, the whole carriage rushed out of the subway station, but the two of them were not injured?
But none of that matters.
The whole movie is thrilling and the tense atmosphere is created very well. The audience is deeply attracted and has no time to think about the so-called bugs.
Yang Ye said before that commercial films must achieve two things if they want to be successful at the box office. First, they must have a strong script, and second, they must create spectacles.
The "Speed of Life and Death" he is presenting now is a model work.
I won’t talk about the script, it’s exciting and full of emotions.
Although there are no fancy special effects, the results are still thrilling and exciting, and many people’s palms are sweating after watching it.
During the subsequent interview session, many people were convinced.
Those who were complaining about the box office failure and making all kinds of excuses have also shut up.
After filming this movie, Chen Musheng also learned a lot from Yang Ye, such as how to use the camera to create a tense and exciting atmosphere. He hoped to learn two more tricks from Yang Ye, and Yang Ye asked him to do it. Assistant director of "The Matrix".
Actually, Yang Ye originally wanted to make a movie similar to "Speed" for him to continue filming. Suddenly he thought that the important prop of that movie was a mobile phone. However, the functions of mobile phones nowadays are too rudimentary and do not have many functions. , I can only give up and talk about it later.
……
The day after the premiere of "Speed", Yang Ye flew to Beijing with the Hollywood delegation to conduct final negotiations.
Although Yang Ye is a member of the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA), in this negotiation, he is actually more like a middleman, responsible for communicating with both parties.
Hollywood believes that mainland China is a market with huge potential. If they want to enter, they must show some sincerity.
It is impossible for you to say you want to come in and I will open the market and let you make money.
Yang Ye's suggestion to the MPAA is to establish a "China-US Film Talent Exchange Program" and invite some film directors from mainland China to study in Hollywood to help cultivate talents for Chinese films.
This suggestion was not something Yang Ye came up with out of thin air, but existed in the original time and space.
In 2012, China agreed to further liberalize the market, increase the number of split-movies introduced each year to 34, and increase the share ratio to 25%.
In return, the MPAA launched a "China-US Film Talent Exchange Program", first initiated by Paramount, which invites Chinese film talents to Hollywood every year to observe, learn and exchange.
Paramount selected company executives and experienced Hollywood film directors, producers and other first-line filmmakers to participate.
People like Wu Ersan, Wu Jing, Chen Sicheng, Guo Fan, etc. were all the first batches of people who went to study Paramount Exchange.
After returning from Hollywood, they respectively produced "Search for the Dragon", "Wolf Warrior 2", "Detective Chinatown", "The Wandering Earth"... Some of them learned it well, some learned it in vain, Xiao Yang also went After I came back, I wanted to make a special effects blockbuster, but I ended up filming "Weather Prediction", which became a hit.
After Paramount, several major companies including Warner, Sony, Disney, and Universal have also launched animation production, high-concept film/IP development, screenwriting, artist management, and production. Various types of training and exchange programs including film and business management, with a total number of 200 people.
These people are the mainstays of the Chinese film industry. The years during which the exchange program was launched coincided with the rapid development of Chinese films and the crazy and continuous record of movie box office records.
Of course, Hollywood has also made a lot of money. In those years, the box office of Hollywood blockbusters in China has skyrocketed, and "Avengers 4" has grossed more than 4 billion in box office.
Unfortunately, this win-win situation only lasted for five years, and then the sweater war began. Then came the epidemic, and communication was interrupted.
As Hollywood has become deeply troubled by LGBT political correctness, its own strength has also been greatly reduced.
The communication between the two parties came to nothing.
As for this kind of learning exchange, the MPAA doesn’t care at all. It can be done in 2013, let alone 1993. They immediately agreed.
……
As for China Film Group, after the opening of Hong Kong films, China Film Group was full of food.
However, with the popularity of video parlors in the past two years, especially after the invention of VCD, piracy has become rampant.
The film market is different from the music market. Pirated tapes and pirated CDs have actually promoted the prosperity of the mainland's recording industry to a certain extent.
Because many genuine channels cannot penetrate into dense distribution points, they must rely on piracy to fill the gap.
The existence of piracy makes popular songs widely sung, which helps expand the popularity of singers, boost album sales, and increase commercial performance prices.
In the 1990s, when genuine and pirated copies coexisted, there were more than 100 record companies in Guangzhou, and several truckloads of records were shipped to all parts of the country every day, making a lot of money.
But this is not the case with movies. There is no box office in remote areas, and developed areas have been eroded by piracy, causing heavy losses.
Minister Tian Chongming met with Yang Ye alone and asked him why he wanted to be a lobbyist this time.
Yang Ye bluntly said that he was also a member of the MPAA and had to come.
On the other hand, Yang Ye also introduced Tian Chongming to the situation of the world film industry.
Now that Hollywood is undergoing industrial upgrading, the emergence of "Jurassic Park" means that Hollywood's high-concept movies have officially taken shape.
This kind of high-concept movie triggers people to go to movie theaters to watch it. Although there are new media such as video and television, American theater chains are not affected at all and are doing better and better.
If films from various countries and regions want to compete, they must upgrade accordingly, otherwise their film markets will be completely cannibalized by Hollywood blockbusters.
Tian Chongming asked: "In this case, why do we still let Hollywood blockbusters come in?"
Yang Yexin said, of course it is to make money. But he still said seriously:
"This is the same principle as reform and opening up, inviting overseas capital to invest in factories and recruit our workers.
Although they have made our money and occupied our market, our workers have learned skills as a result. Businessmen accumulated capital as a result.
The same goes for cultural undertakings. , Only if Hollywood makes money will people be willing to invest in it.
It will also recruit and train talents for us. This is...market for technology."
"So you suggest Hollywood. Established a Sino-US film talent exchange program? ”
"Yes!"
Tian Chongming frowned and thought for a while, then asked: "You said that movies from all over the world will be cannibalized by Hollywood, so will Hong Kong movies?"
Yang Yedao : "Hong Kong films just have a temporary advantage in Asia. But as Hollywood continues to advance, it is bound to fail.
Because most Hong Kong films are studio-based, they have no advantage over Hollywood's industrial blockbusters."
Tian Chongming asked again: " Is there no way to remedy it? ”
Yang Ye shook his head: "There is no need to save, Hong Kong movies will eventually become part of Chinese movies.
If Hong Kong movies continue to maintain a strong position, there will be no way to integrate.
Only by being defeated by Hollywood , after losing the overseas market, this group of talents will move forward Come to the mainland to find new markets.
At that time, technology and funds will be transferred in to cultivate talents for the mainland film industry."
Tian Chongming said strangely: "You are a Hong Kong filmmaker. Why not consider the local area at all? ”
"It is for the sake of local consideration that I said these words. After all, active integration and passive joining are two different things."
Yang Ye's words are exactly what he allowed Taiwan's eight blockbusters to do The relationship between businessmen and the Hong Kong film industry broke down and they refused to come forward.
Although he later met with the eight major film businessmen in Taiwan, he did not mediate the conflicts between the two parties at all.
On the contrary, let the eight major film producers be more cautious in investing. It is now difficult to get investment from Taiwanese companies in Hong Kong films.
“I understand!”
After Tian Chongming returned, within a few days, he reached a five-year agreement with the MPAA.
The main content of the agreement is to introduce 20 Hollywood movies every year, with a share ratio of 15%.
The first introduced blockbuster film was determined to be "Jurassic Park". (End of this chapter)
