Chapter 583 It's Time to Explode!

After Liu Chengzhang's "Sword Immortal" goes on the market, it may be a big hit, or it may even sell its underwear. In fact, it has nothing to do with Minghu Culture. Minghu Culture will not only make a lot of money through the special effects department, but also through this film. The production of special effects for movies has once again raised my production ability to a higher level!

Why not do it?

Li Qian read the outline of the script, talked about it for a long time, nodded easily and agreed to the request of a guest star, and asked someone to sign the contract directly later. If the filming takes no more than three days, then even the salary will be saved. For a friendly performance, you only need to take care of food, housing and reimbursement of travel expenses.

As for Zhu Qiang, that role is a bit heavy. According to Liu Chengzhang's usual speed of making movies, it is estimated that if Zhu Qiang takes his third male lead, even if the role is limited, he will have to stay on the set for three to five months. Therefore, Li Qian cannot , and unwilling to agree on his behalf, he can only say that there is no problem in principle. For the specific situation, schedule, salary, etc., he still needs to send someone to discuss it carefully with Zou Wenhuai and Zhu Qiang.

Then, Liu Chengzhang left contentedly.

I chatted with Lu Ming for a few more words, and told him to do a good job in this drama. The equipment he needs can be bought, but it must not be improvised, and then he went back to his office.

In his original plan, he planned to use drama to support special effects.

Because of computer special effects, if you want to be at the most advanced level in the world at all times, you not only need to update hardware equipment frequently, but also need to improve the processing power, calculation ability, rendering ability of technicians through continuous practice. Ability and so on various technologies.

It can be said that it burns a lot of money, and it must often burn money!

And it’s not just that you can do it well as long as you burn money!

Continuously update equipment, follow the development of computer hardware equipment in the world, continue to accept projects, continue to raise one problem after another, and then overcome it and do it well, so that the special effects department can embark on a road of continuous improvement !

Filming "Legend of the New White Snake" will help the special effects department establish the most basic foundation. It can also be used as a brand for the outside world. However, that doesn't allow the equipment bought with so much money and the technicians who spent so much money to sit idle.

There is no choice but to make films by myself and continue to raise them until computer special effects become a must for film and television dramas in the new era. A mountain in the past!

It is precisely because of this consideration that Li Qian first gave "To Live" to Yu Bojun, and then tried to give "Farewell My Concubine" to Feng Yumin. The fundamental reason why Qian Qian gave up directing these two films that he loves and admires the most is that he cannot make such films that do not require special effects in order to support the computer special effects department.

But it turns out that he was overthinking.

If it is said that after "Titanic" made a big hit at the box office, these domestic film and television production companies are still just sighing. In terms of film special effects technology, after the popularity of "Legend of the New White Snake", everyone began to lose control-Americans are leading in technology, how many years have they been in the film powerhouse, they are better than us, it is not a big deal , and it is said that the special effects of the movie cost hundreds of millions of dollars, we can't compare it, and we can't learn it! But now, the country can actually produce such amazing special effects! And it's still a TV show!

It spent a lot more on special effects than ordinary TV dramas, but it is still not comparable to the hundreds of millions of dollars in "Titanic". The cost and special effects are only 20 million yuan, but how much did this TV series earn?

We can't spend that much, ten million, or five million, it's always affordable, right?

Therefore, after "Legend of the White Snake" became popular, domestic film and TV drama projects involving fantasy, disaster and other special effects shots, which only Hollywood could afford in the past, gradually began to increase. There are not many children for the time being, but there are some bits and pieces, which are not difficult for the special effects department of Minghu Culture, but they can't handle them.

When shooting a martial arts film, you help someone erase the wire from the screen, isn't this a kind of special effect?

The fees are low and the work is simple.

It wasn't until Liu Chengzhang, a big director, took the initiative to send someone to the door to discuss the production of special effects for his new film. The special effects department of Minghu Culture finally received another big deal!

Yes, of course, full cooperation!

In the next year or so, until Liu Chengzhang's "Sword" was completely completed, the special effects department of Minghu Culture could not be idle, and Li Qian could finally shoot with his own small budget with confidence.

After all, even if he has countless successful examples in his mind to refer to, but time and place change, even if he invests too much in special effects, he can't guarantee that he will not lose money!

It is still a youth romance film like "My Sassy Girl", which has a small investment, is easy to shoot, looks good, sells well, and is especially easy to get popular actors. It is the best choice for a new director to make his first film!

So, it's just playing a role in friendship, if you don't get paid, you will be paid!

…………

After returning to the office and sitting down for a while, Li Qian called Qi Jie.

"Well, it was Director Liu Chengzhang and Liu, who sat for a while and invited me to play a guest role."

"Oh, finished talking? Promised?"

"I agree! Why don't I agree? It's too shameless not to agree. It's just a small cameo role. However, 80 million yuan, and I don't think 80 million yuan may be able to finish the filming... He really dares to play !"

Qi Jie smiled and asked, "What's going on with the script?"

Li Qian sat down on the sofa and said, "It's all right now. Zhou Yanghua should have come to terms with it and felt that it doesn't make much sense to continue being stuck. So, Zhao Sicun called me this morning and said that within two days I can release my script, and he even said that he will be responsible for greeting even the shooting permit, and it will be completed within a week, which saves our people to run away."

Qi Jie said, "Why didn't you tell me then?"

Li Qian smiled, "You are so far away from Changsha Mansion that you don't want to come back. What's the use of me telling you? Besides, it's not a big deal!"

After a pause, Qi Jie said: "I called Zou Wenhuai and asked for a long time before he told me how you went to Zhou's house the day before yesterday. So, can you be sure that he is playing tricks?"

Li Qian thought for a while, and said, "It shouldn't be wrong!"

Qi Jie asked again: "Do you think the script was released so quickly, it should be because he knew that his scheme was seen through by you? So it's pointless to keep getting stuck?"

Li Qian thought about it again, nodded, "I guess so, what does Old Zou say?"

Qi Jie didn't know what to think of, heard the words and smiled lightly, and then said: "Old Zou said, when you lied to them, the expressions of Zhou Yanghua and Zong Chengze were very exciting."

Li Qian laughed when he heard the words, nodded and said, "It's quite exciting!"

Speaking of this, Qi Jie suddenly sighed, and said: "So, everyone is tearing their faces? That's Dongfang Media, they... are very powerful!"

Li Qian smiled, "It's not enough to tear your face, everyone just knows it well, and you can still laugh and laugh when you meet each other, so this should be regarded as tearing your heart!"

Speaking of this, he himself couldn't help laughing, "Ha... Now that everyone knows it well, it's actually quite simple. Don't play tricks on anyone, and everyone just fight against each other in the movie."

"Because I've already seen through you. If you still dare to play tricks on me, you will break the rules! No matter how powerful Oriental Media is, they also work in the film circle. It’s okay if others don’t see it, but if they see it like we did, they’ll become a target of public criticism, no matter how much a movie tycoon Zhou Yanghua is, he wouldn’t dare to take the risk!”

"Including this time, he wanted to trap me, and even wanted to take the opportunity to intervene in my movie. I have already seen through it. If I don't say it, he, Zhou Yanghua, no matter how unhappy he is in his heart, he has to accept my love on the surface! Come again next time , that is to force both parties to show their swords! This is basically impossible in the film industry!"

"Of course, this kind of breaking the rules can't be done. It doesn't mean that they have no other way to deal with us, but it will definitely be done within the film industry itself..."

"As for making and selling movies, I'm not afraid of his Oriental Media!"

Qi Jie was silent for a moment, but still said worriedly: "I'm currently studying the set for release, so I know that their oriental theater chain is very powerful. Once our new movie is released in the future, his oriental cinema will be released soon." What if the theater doesn’t accept it? Or if it does, what should I do if it won’t arrange a film for you?”

Li Qian was surprised and couldn't help laughing, "Are you afraid of this?"

On the other end of the phone, Qi Jie was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Okay, okay, I was a little worried... Speaking of which, we have come across this kind of thing more than once in the past few years. !"

Li Qian laughed when he heard this, "That's right!"

After a pause, he smiled again: "Don't worry, you don't have to worry about my filming, just concentrate on making "Super Girl" well, it will soon enter July, and according to the progress, it will also It's time to explode!"
