Due to the release of "The Secret of the Dragon", the mainland is being turned upside down by Yang Ye.
First, a group of two realistically ran to the grassland to find the tomb of the goddess.
Of course there is no tomb of the Goddess. These idiots were wandering around on the grassland, sneaking around, and were caught by the police.
Then there are qigong, masters and all this shit.
Ge You had a toothache and wanted to extract the tooth. He felt that the hospital was unreliable, so he went to find a master to extract the tooth.
But many people also realized that something was wrong. This horse riding was too crazy.
After Yang Ye's "The Secret of the Dragon" was released, although the tomb robbing plot in it caused some criticism, the revelation that the so-called "masters" are all liars is of great practical significance.
A few years ago, after Yang Ye's movie was released in mainland China, it became an instant hit and became a household name.
His sweeping victory in Japanese martial arts was quickly reported, and the title of national hero spread like wildfire.
People in this era don’t know whether they are naive or stupid. It is easy to believe something.
Zhou Lijing played a county magistrate in a TV series, so countless people wrote to him, hoping that he could serve as the local magistrate. Some even complained to him.
Chen Xiaoxu opened an advertising company, and many people came to her to advertise, because "Lin Daiyu will not lie to me"!
Of course, it is not limited to that era, it can happen anytime.
Decades later, aren’t there still many anchors working for the benefit of their “family members”?
People like Yang Ye, who blatantly revealed in the movie that the so-called "masters" are fakes, instantly caused an uproar.
...
The Liuguo Hotel has been burned down, and Yang Ye is staying at the Jianguo Hotel this time.
In the room, Yang Ye hugged his Peacock Princess and watched TV with relish.
On TV, Sima Chuck is playing the role of a qigong master, revealing the inside story of magical skills.
Yang Liping said with some resentment: "Is it so beautiful?"
In the past few years, she has been visiting and performing around the world non-stop, and has only met with Yang Ye a few times.
Now that we finally got together, Yang Ye actually enjoyed watching TV so much.
Yang Yecai was shocked to realize that he had neglected the beauty, and quickly apologized and said: "I think this guy is too quick to adapt to the wind!"
Yang Liping was confused and asked: "What? What does it mean?”
“He used to practice qigong, performing everywhere, and cheating old people out of money. Now when he sees that the trend is wrong, he immediately went on TV to expose the qigong scam and became an anti-fraud pioneer. Do you think it’s funny? ?”
"So that's it. No wonder he is so familiar!" Yang Liping also couldn't laugh or cry.
Yang Ye sighed and said: "This thing is really a disaster for the country and the people!"
But he can't control this matter. It is enough to use a movie to spark discussion in society.
With the beauty in his arms, let’s enjoy it first. He put his arms around the peacock princess’ waist and kissed her red lips.
Exactly: To be happy in life, you must have all the joy, and don’t let the golden bottle stand empty against the moon.
...
In Hong Kong, before a movie is released, all kinds of pre-publicity must be done.
The publicity costs for large-scale productions often cost millions of Hong Kong dollars, covering the entire city.
Even if the cost is small, it must be published in the newspaper to make it look familiar.
But in mainland China, there are very few. Movies are released as soon as they are released, without any promotion or scheduling.
At most, just hang up a poster in the movie theater and be done with it.
Of course there are exceptions. Zhang Huaxun's "Martial Arts Chronicles" was not finished filming yet, so he found a relationship and showed a few minutes of the film on the Spring Festival Gala.
It was the first time that Yang Ye's film entered the mainland. "Xinwen Lianbo" reported it to him and it was very impressive.
But these are special circumstances. All in all, there is no concept of advance marketing in the mainland film industry.
These state-owned factories also have no motivation for marketing. Whether the sales are good or not, they will still receive wages.
In the early 1990s, Wu Siyuan came to the mainland to co-produce "New Dragon Inn" and found that the movie was released without advertising.
What kind of business did he say this was? In the end, I spent my own money to place a wave of advertisements in Xinmin Evening News.
Yang Ye’s purpose this time is to introduce the concept of movie premieres to the mainland.
He originally wanted to do it on CCTV and broadcast it nationwide.
Unfortunately, CCTV did not allow it, and there were no Six Princesses these days, so we had to settle for the next best thing and find a pervert station.
Although Abnormal Channel is available, it is not available nationwide and is much smaller in size.
But that’s all we can do, just make do with it!
……
Many leaders came to the premiere.
In the first half of the year, Yang Ye released a film called "The Enemy". Although it is a Soviet film, it is also a serious "red classic".
These old guys had a lot of dealings with the Soviets when they were young. Many of them can speak Russian and sing Soviet songs, so they all like this movie very much.
Yang Ye shook hands with Wu Lengxi politely: "Hello, Minister Wu!"
"Xiao Yang, long time no see. The last time you went to the Soviet Union to film the movie "At the Gate of the City" ”, the photo is very good.”
“Thank you!”
“I heard that the sales are good overseas”
"It's not bad, no loss!"
"Your film company is world-renowned, can you introduce us to your advanced experience?"
"Some domestic movies are also shot well, and everyone knows each other. Of course there is no problem in learning and communicating.”
Yang Ye was polite to the old guys, followed by the leaders of Beijing Film Studio, Changying Film Studio, and Bayi Film Studio.
There are also some well-known domestic directors and actors, such as Jiang Wen, and Brother Kaizi.
Yang Ye was very surprised why Brother Kaizi was here. Logically speaking, he should be studying film in the United States during this time.
Of course, there are also Qu Bo and his wife and their four children, Qu Miaomiao, Qu Jingjing, Qu Leilei, Qu Luoluo. Qu Jingjing is a boy.
Soon, the movie started to show.
The original film starts in New York and tells the story of Han Gen, an overseas student, who outsmarts Tiger Mountain.
Yang Ye's version directly deletes the part containing roots, and what comes up is a large aerial shot, showing the vast, endless forests and snowfields.
To the music of "Fighting Tigers Up the Mountain," the narration begins:
In 1946, less than a year after the Japanese surrender, China once again fell into a full-scale civil war.
In the Northeast, bandits took advantage of the war to fish in troubled waters, burn, kill and loot to expand their power, and the people lived in dire straits.
That winter, the head of the army, codenamed 203, rushed to Mudanjiang with a bandit suppression squad, waiting for the next order.
In the twelfth lunar month, with the north wind howling and traffic blocked, the team went through many hardships and returned to the forest and snowfield where they were born and raised!
...
Soon, the first battle began.
This scene used a lot of bullet time, which dazzled the audience.
Various bullets rotate 360 degrees, the character suddenly freezes, and then dies suddenly.
Although it is not shot in 3D like the original version, it pursues the effect of bullets popping out of the screen.
But when shooting in 2D, the lens is freer, the angle of view is wider, and the scene is actually more intense.
Before this, when shooting gun battles in domestic movies, the two sides would shoot at each other from their own positions, and then there would be some close-ups of the shot. Otherwise, there will be a heroic sacrifice, sensationalism, etc. How have you ever seen this?
So everyone was dumbfounded. It turns out that gun battles can be filmed like this?
Fortunately, these people all have some status and will not lose their composure.
If it had been a normal screening and the general audience would have entered the venue, I'm afraid they would have already made a fuss.
Despite this, there are also whispers.
Because they really want to know how this kind of shot was taken.
……
After that, Yang Zirong fights on Tiger Mountain.
This section uses a real tiger plus model shooting method.
When the tiger appears on the stage, it is a real tiger, and the shot of the tiger running is also a real tiger.
The real fight later is the model.
The model is a one-to-one replica of a real tiger, shot using stop-motion photography to the extent that it looks real.
Of course, if the audience of later generations comes to see it, this paragraph is actually a bit fake due to their technical level.
But for audiences of this era, this is enough.
Seeing the tiger leaping up the tree branch, its claws never leaving Yang Zirong's side, many people's palms were sweating and they were highly nervous.
When Yang Zirong made the last sliding shovel and killed the tiger, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
This time, the whispers became louder.
Everyone is fully aware that the technology of Yang Ye's movie is too advanced.
Of course, some people disagree, such as Brother Kaizi.
Kai Zige has a point of view. He believes that the scientific spirit is dominant in Western movies and the artistic spirit is lacking. On the contrary, Asian culture is long and profound.
This concept is not wrong, but it is very arrogant. It is changing the concept secretly and does not understand the key points.
Asian culture is indeed long-standing and profound, but that does not mean that Asian movies are too.
After all, movies were invented by others.
And film is not simply art, it is a product of technology.
Without the Industrial Revolution, there would be no movies.
The advancement of technology has also been promoting the development of movies and is a crucial factor.
In the end, Hollywood relied on technology to dominate the world, beating films from all over the world.
Brother Kaizi is not just talking nonsense, he really thinks so.
In fact, before "Farewell My Concubine" was filmed, he had already become famous in the world of film circles with "Yellow Earth" and "The King of Children".
Otherwise, how could I be invited to serve as a judge at the Berlin Film Festival?
Since 1990, the eight major Hollywood companies have taken turns inviting Brother Kaizi to film in the United States.
Even Hollywood action star Mel Gibson once went to Beijing to work with him for several months and asked him to film Dickens's masterpiece "A Tale of Two Cities".
However, Brother Kaizi was obsessed with art and refused them all.
This is why Xu Feng visited the thatched cottage three times in order to invite Brother Kaizi to direct "Farewell My Concubine" and went through a lot of trouble before he was hired.
He doesn't even like Hollywood, let alone Xu Feng.
But "Farewell My Concubine" is also really great. Not only has it won numerous awards, but it has also grossed US$33 million worldwide.
What is this concept? It ranked ninth among the ten highest-grossing Chinese films of the 1990s.
As for the other nine...all are Chen Long movies.
After Kai Zi Ge pretended to be a hottie for ten years, Li Jian swept the Oscars with his movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and grossed US$213 million worldwide.
Kaizi brother was jealous, suddenly relented, agreed to MGM's invitation, descended to earth and went to Hollywood.
This time the momentum is very high. He shares an agent with Madonna, and a company specially selects scripts for him.
In the end, he chose the British best-selling novel "Killing Me Tenderly" and invited two popular British actors to star.
MGM has prepared a budget of 30 million US dollars for Brother Kaizi. The whole process was filmed in the UK in secrecy and the media was not allowed to approach. This shows Brother Kaizi's reputation.
Brother Kaizi probably went crazy in China, so he directly made this movie into a pornographic film, letting the two protagonists fuck each other from beginning to end, exposing all kinds of things.
When it was released in 2002, it grossed more than 7 million US dollars at the box office, making MGM a fool.
That year, Bai Ge also helped MGM film "Windtalkers", which cost 120 million and earned more than 70 million in box office.
MGM is already poor, how can it survive this? We can only go bankrupt where we are.
Everyone in the world knows that Baige cheated MGM, but they don’t know that Brother Kaizi also contributed to it.
If you keep pretending, why should you break your skills?
......
Although Brother Kaizi was a little dissatisfied with the random addition of technology to Yang Ye's movies.
But when he was placed in the defense battle of Jiapigou, he was really shocked.
Yang Ye’s arrangement of this war scene has completely surpassed Xu Ke’s original version.
The flying snow, the trenches ignited by gunpowder smoke, the woods with rich layers of light and shadow, and the vague fog in the forest appear one after another.
At the beginning of the war, a wide-angle lens was used to clearly depict the situation between the enemy and ourselves in Jiapigou.
A fierce battle ensued, and Yang Ye skillfully used overhead shots, follow-up shots, and cross shots.
The war scenes are shot in a tense, intense and bloody way, making people's hormones surge and their heartstrings tense.
In the fierce battle, the mentality and game among the army, bandits, and villagers all have different explanations.
Many small scenes are interspersed with the big war, intertwining the ruthlessness and cruelty of war with the glory of human nature.
While watching this scene, Brother Kaizi felt in a trance that Shao Jianbo in the movie seemed to be the incarnation of Yang Ye.
It is Yang Ye who is directing this war with the help of Shao Jianbo.
Brother Kaizi couldn't help but glanced forward at Yang Ye's position, and suddenly thought: "I have never seen anyone who can shoot the war in such a clear and exciting way. If this person is alive In the war years, he must have been a general!"
Yang Ye didn't know that Brother Kaizi admired him so much.
He was sitting in the dark cinema, comfortably holding the weak and boneless hand of "Little White Pigeon" He Qing.
As for He Qing, she looked at the big screen nervously, her palms sweating.
Although Yang Zirong did not participate in this battle, Yang Ye was everywhere in the hearts of the audience.
After the war, Luan Ping took advantage of the chaos to escape, and then there was the scene where Yang Zirong remained calm in the face of danger and killed Luan Ping with his mouth.
This section was exciting and interesting, and made many people laugh.
In the final decisive battle, Yang Zirong's identity was exposed and he was trapped in a tight siege.
Our army then arrived and the two sides fought bloody battles. Yang Zirong chased and killed a mountain eagle alone and masturbated in the underground passage, leaving everyone stunned and terrified.
Exaggeration is exaggeration, awesomeness is really awesome, excitement is really exciting.
The leaves of the plane were whirring, as if it could kill Yang Zirong at any time.
Brother Kaizi suddenly understood, what kind of Yang Zirong is this? This is simply domestic Lingling paint! (End of chapter)
