Although Feng Xiaogang had no friendship with Su Yi, his previous guest appearance was just for the sake of Jiang Wen's sake - to be precise, he wanted to show his kindness, but Su Yi didn't pay much attention to it.
It wasn't Su Yi's intention, but because there were too many things going on and he didn't have time to pay attention to these grievances.
In the beginning, I had some grudges with Chen Kaige, but now they are not on the same level.
Whether it is the status of the Film Association or the total box office, they are completely defeated.
Even Su Yi would not comment on Chen Kaige in public because it is not necessary.
Moreover, he is now within the system and will not easily make any subjective remarks.
Although there is nothing to do, there is even some jealousy in my heart.
But they all admire Su Yi's ability very much.
This time, the foreign media were not optimistic about Su Yi, which also made Feng Xiaogang feel very uncomfortable.
The infighting and consumption does not matter, there is no competition and no development. They also hope that Su Yi will one day stop being the only one.
But if the foreigners' ridicule was to laugh at Su Yi, forget it.
It is mocking the entire director industry in Dragon Kingdom.
He, Feng Xiaogang, has also gone abroad to film movies before. Let alone renting a street, the fine for illegal parking is sky-high for them!
Especially when shooting Capital People in New York.
It is still fresh in Feng Xiaogang’s memory.
"This group of capital is trying every means to block the works of our country. Except for works that smear reality, it is difficult for other works to enter their eyes——"
Wang Zhongjun heard this Then he let out a long sigh.
Although Su Yi's performance in the past few years has been amazing, several of his works were basically produced with a low cost.
The kind of documentary that discusses human nature.
The big-budget and big-investment movies, Changjin Lake and Earthshaking, have not gone abroad.
"It's true. If Su Yi's movie succeeds this time, it will be our mainland director who goes abroad."
After a long time, even Wang Zhongjun, who had conflicts with Su Yi, had to admit that now Su Yi represents the general trend.
Whether there is any grudge or not, we all hope that Su Yi's new movie will be successful.
Of course, this does not mean that we expect Su Yi to be brilliant all the way to the end.
At least I hope his movie will be successful.
And what he said is not bad, even though there was a director from Dragon Kingdom before. After going abroad, he also filmed many classic works in Hollywood.
But most of them were taken by Ang Lee on the other side of the island.
Most of the photos taken by Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige and others were invested in China.
Therefore, there is still a great lack of directors in this mainland for international major productions.
"The news has already begun to promote it! Isn't this director Xie Jin? He went abroad to shoot with Su Yi before."
Wang Zhonglei suddenly pointed at the TV and said with some surprise.
····
Xie Jin’s face is glowing in the camera and he looks very energetic.
Being interviewed by reporters, he also came back with Su Yi.
But Su Yi rarely accepts interviews from reporters, and Xie Jin is easier to find.
"The filming of Director Su Yi's movie went very smoothly. The movie has been completed and is in post-production. It may take a little longer. That's all I can say."
As soon as the reporter came up, the reporter asked Jingjian As for the problem, it is impossible for Xie Jin to know the release time of the movie.
Although there is no shortage of movies recently, it has been less than half a year since the program to promote Dianzhou Cultural Tourism.
No matter what the work is, the audience is looking forward to it.
After all, this is produced by Su Yi!
And the one that comes up right from the beginning is Wang Zha, a work with a US$300 million investment!
"Is this movie exciting? Will it fail at the box office?"
A reporter asked cautiously.
Although the possibility of this happening in the Dragon Kingdom is slim.
But this is a high-cost production after all.
It would be nonsense to say that there is no pressure on the director!
Even if Spielberg comes, there will still be psychological pressure!
The opening ceremony of the Olympic Games has an investment of 300 billion, but there are also many staff. Every expenditure is strictly controlled. The situation of enriching one's own pockets can almost be eliminated, and it has also been reviewed by many experts. There are official, professional teams and so on.
Basically there will be no mistakes.
But this movie is basically Su Yi’s words.
News had been exposed before that the screenwriter of DC Comics had been quarreling with Su Yi.
Even on the scene, he was furious, thinking that Su Yi was completely ruining the classic by filming like this.
More intense conflicts and contradictions broke out later, although they would not start fighting.
But it has attracted a lot of attention.
It even made the entertainment headlines of the Star Flag Country, especially the explosion in Chicago, which even caused the Star Flag Country's environmental protection department to get involved. Some people said it was environmental pollution, and they are all under investigation.
In Xie Jin's view, everything seems to be back to when Spielberg was filming "Empire of the Sun" in Shanghai, but in reverse!
The matter was very big, and the domestic media didn’t know much about it.
Originally I wanted to interview Su Yi, but Xie Jin turned out to be the ‘spokesperson’.
“Movies are not a field that I can understand, because I am better at movies from the past era, but the investment in the movie is very large, and the whole process is shot with IMAX·3D cameras, and the scenes are very large, and the local The residents even thought there was a terrorist attack. "
What Xie Jin said today was all after asking Su Yi in advance.
At his age, he is definitely not doing it for fame, but for helping Su Yi answer questions from the media.
Su Yi has been very tired during this period. He is shooting a movie in a foreign country and has many things to think about every day.
Reporters also know that Su Yi is not an ordinary commercial director. He is also the director of the system, and it is impossible to pursue and intercept him.
Click! Click!
Countless flash lights flashed. When Xie Jin was filming movies before, there was no such battle in the entertainment industry, which shocked him.
This flashing light is like a flash bomb, making it difficult to open your eyes.
"The filming of this movie was not very smooth, and it caused a lot of controversy. I heard that some audiences in North America have started to boycott it? Is it true?"
Asked The questions are almost always acute.
"As long as the director of this movie is from the Dragon Kingdom, no matter how dirty it is, there will be people who will boycott it!"
Xie Jin had some emotion on his face.
To be honest, he has become more knowledgeable this time.
The reason why foreign film industries can occupy the global market is also because they are very popular.
"Decades ago, we could only watch famous foreign directors shoot movies on our land. The reason why I want to follow this time is not that Su Yi needs me, but that I I followed him shamelessly. Please wait and see. I also hope that our country will have such big IPs and big productions in the future.” But I really understand.
To be honest, even if Warner Bros. fails to make movies and controls big IPs such as Harry Potter and DC, it will still stand firm no matter what!
Countless viewers are watching the interview.
Superman and Batman, these characters are indeed the childhood memories of many Dragon Kingdom viewers.
Batman, which is currently being filmed with huge sums of money, was filmed by Long Guo himself!
A feeling of pride arises spontaneously.
Xie Jin finished saying everything he needed to say, and he didn't say a word more about what he couldn't say now.
"I'm so looking forward to it! Director Su Yi, can you show it here first? You know, we are the country with the most IMAX·3D cinemas in the world!"
"Yes, for Changjin Lake, So many 3D movie theaters have been invested! We should give priority to broadcasting!”
Someone has posted on the Internet, especially on Su Yi’s blog.
Su Yi has not promoted this time, but many people have promoted Su Yi on his behalf.
Xie Jin’s interview directly brought the film’s reputation to its peak.
After seeing the interview report on CCTV 6, countless people's eyes were focused on this movie.
Even Han Sanping from China Film Group began to look forward to it.
If there were a movie box office pre-sale at this time, it would probably break the record in no time!
······
Su family.
Su Yi stretched.
"Have some breakfast, son. Is the food you eat abroad very poor?"
"It's definitely not as delicious as what mom makes."
It's either steak or pizza. Pie, or lobster or something like that.
Warner Brothers also values themselves, and the daily food expenses are not low.
But it’s good to give these things a try. If you eat too much, it will make you feel nauseous. After all, the taste is not rich.
Su Yi ate all the breakfast with a smile, feeling very warm in his heart.
"Son, when will this movie be released? Our colleagues at work are still asking."
Su's mother is about to retire, but she is a little reluctant to part with it.
Because after retirement, I can no longer see the envious eyes of my colleagues every day.
"The movie should be produced in two months. The 3D post-production process is very troublesome and complicated. I will have to go there several times by then. Warner Bros. is also very anxious. After all, they have invested so much and want to make money as soon as possible. Back."
300 million US dollars!
Mother Su was a little scared.
My son is rich, but not that much.
“If you don’t get your money back at the box office, you don’t have to lose money, right?”
Su's father coughed. It was better to ask such an embarrassing question by himself.
"No need. But this movie should not lose money."
Su Yi smiled helplessly. He is no longer a young boy who just graduated.
But a well-known director.
"Brother! You must leave a ticket for us this time!"
Xiaoxuan knew that Su Yi was back and immediately came to 'find out the news'.
Although she is nervous about studying now, high school students also need to have fun.
The boring life makes people boring. Xiaoxuan’s brother is Su Yi. This incident is enough to make Xiaoxuan become the ‘central figure’.
He is also the publicity committee member of their class.
"Haha, I guess you are coming. Don't worry. I will reserve tickets for you in advance this time. After all, it is distributed by China Film. If I don't have this ability, it will be a waste of time."
Facing yourself Su Yi is no longer so rigorous in his words.
Not only did he shoot the movie this time, but based on his relationship with Han Sanping, it was all a trivial matter.
"Haha! That's great, brother! By the way, did you pay attention when you were abroad? Sister Shi Shi has almost become the spokesperson for tourism."
"Yes, this girl Although he is young, he is dignified and gentle, and now he has good resources. Didn’t he get a role this time? ”
Mother Su also said it intentionally or unintentionally.
Su Yi was a little surprised, and then asked in detail.
Liu Shishi promoted all commercial advertising endorsements this time, but also took the "semi-system" route.
Dianzhou has been promoted during this period.
And I also accepted invitations from some changed tourist cities to experience it myself.
Now in the eyes of tourists, Liu Shishi is even more famous than Su Yi.
Xiaoxuan has a holiday today. Although she is nervous about studying, Su Yi has not been back for such a long time. The second aunt and her family are grateful to Su Yi, so they let Xiaoxuan come over.
“Look, brother!”
With a few photos of Liu Shishi, this girl seems to have found her own route.
The photos are all very good.
Su Yi felt a little surprised when he saw it, but the clothes were a bit inferior.
If I have the chance, I think I will make a fashion show and get some ethnic clothes such as Hanfu and horse-faced skirts.
Change the aesthetic slightly.
The clothes I designed for the three girls during the hurricane were slightly modified to fit the era.
But now that I have the perspective of later generations, I am still a little bit unaccustomed to the current dressing style.
It’s like looking at QQ Zone in 2000 in 2024.
What’s the point of burying love and failing to show affection?
Whether the leaves leave, is it the pursuit of the wind, or the unwillingness of the tree to stay.
This kind of embarrassing and unsteady message is like the so-called fashionable clothes that Su Yi sees now.
But now the plastic surgery industry is not that exaggerated. South Korea’s technology has just begun to take off, so there are slightly fewer plastic surgery faces.
"It's indeed quite beautiful."
Su Yi couldn't help but praise a few words.
"Let me tell you! I have always taken advantage of you!"
Xiao Xuan suddenly became excited.
Now this child is indeed precocious
Su Yi seriously thought about it for the first time. The last time he went on a trip, he had indeed fallen in love with Liu Shishi.
However, Liu Yifei’s appearance occasionally appears in my mind.
With my status, I can’t be a scumbag.
In 2005, Liu Yifei had just entered adulthood and Liu Shishi was only 19 years old.
You are not very young, and Su Yi is also busy.
Moreover, both of them have feelings for Su Yi.
Not only fans, Su Yi is also thinking about it.
Unexpectedly, what happened to YY in the previous life turned into a worry.
When it comes to marrying a wife, no one is more suitable than Liu Shishi, but Liu Yifei is also a white moonlight, and her cold temperament is unique.
Seeing that Su Yi was silent, Xiaoxuan stuck out her tongue and stopped talking.
Not to mention that Su Yi was in trouble, fans were also in trouble.
This kid, doesn’t he want to have two things?
Su's father refrained from saying this, because he knew that his marriage was free now, and his vision was not as good as his son's, so he better not suggest it.
“The movies this time are all foreigners, and there are basically no Chinese, so there will be no roles. And Xiaoxuan, I can talk about other things as I please, but you still have to give me a sense of mystery in this regard. "
Su Yi coughed.
I have difficulty choosing, so when faced with the simultaneous pursuit of Liu Shishi and Liu Yifei, I can only passively accept it——
He shook his head, but didn’t think much about these things.
“I’ll go to China Film Group Corporation first, and I’ll be back for dinner later!”
“Wow! Brother, you are so efficient! Can you get me movie tickets? Ten of them will do, okay? ? "
Xiao Xuan said exaggeratedly, she was just joking, it would be a great honor to get a few.
····
China Film Group.
"Director Su, are you back? Thank you for your hard work!"
Han Sanping poured a cup of tea.
Han Sanping went to Star Flag Country to discuss cooperation before and then left. After all, he still had a lot of things to do. As for what happened next, he only saw it on the news.
"Chairman Han came to me to ask about filming, right?"
Su Yi said with a smile.
"I am very confident about the movie directed by you, Director Su. This time it will definitely be a hit at the box office. I originally invested US$100 million and the leadership team unanimously approved it. There is no problem at all."
Han Sanping He waved his hand carelessly.
To be honest, an investment of US$100 million would never be so carefree.
But that's for others, Su Yi is definitely fine.
"There is a mission above. It is also a movie."
Han Sanping came to Su Yi not just for casual conversation. They were very pressed for time. Han Sanping was also busy with film investment and distribution recently. thing.
Shanghai Film Group has made a lot of money with its previous investment in Changjin Lake. It also recently invested in Huayi Brothers’ If You Are the One.
It can be considered a success, after all, the market of Dragon Kingdom has been 'activated' in advance.
"Another mission?"
Su Yi was stunned, and then he thought for a while.
The time traveled was so long that I had forgotten some of the original things.
Only things like natural disasters can be remembered.
"It should have been an order from the Propaganda Department, but I think we should discuss it with you in advance. I have several candidates, but the results are definitely not as good as yours, Director Su."
Han Sanping respected Su Yi, so he came to discuss it in advance.
He also knows that Su Yi is busy now.
Warner Brothers just returned the favor. This time Han Sanping came to Su Yi and felt a little embarrassed.
Su Yi thought for a moment, is the propaganda department going to issue a document?
And Han Sanping also knew that he had just finished his work abroad and could still find him.
That is definitely a task that cannot be refused!
It seems that the boss really takes me seriously this time.
“The successful conclusion of the Olympic Games has been unanimously praised by both the official and the private sector. And our great motherland is about to celebrate its 60th birthday.”
The founding of the nation?
Su Yi reacted instantly.
But now there should be a plan. What script to use, how to shoot it, and how much to invest in it should not be decided yet.
Thinking of this, Su Yi felt a little more relaxed.
If it were anyone else, it would probably be a lot of pressure, but Su Yi is still very familiar with the script of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
“I’m not in a hurry. But this time the film is not just looking for a director, many famous directors have been invited. For example, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaogang, Ning Hao, Xu Ke Wait"
Su Yi was a little surprised. He didn't know the inside story of his previous life.
But The Founding of a Nation is still a good movie even without the added bonus of the system.
So there must be no problem with the script he knows.
And there is no problem in finding more directors. On the motherland’s 60th birthday, no one can place their hopes on one person.
"The script this time is very important and will be handed in within a month. I think that although this task is hasty, it should not be a problem for you."
Han Sanping has not finished speaking. Falling, Su Yi chuckled.
"I will give you the script tomorrow - the National Film Bureau will review it."
Tomorrow?
Han Sanping was stunned. (End of this chapter)
