China Entertainment: Director’s happiness is so simple

After seeing Han Sanpin and Hu Qingquan explaining the matter in detail, Han Sanpin was happy but still worried.

"So, you are the one who will be the director of Batman?"

"yes."

"Are you confident?"

"Of course."

"It's good to have confidence."

Han Sanpin couldn't say much.

This is the first time a mainland director has shot a major Hollywood IP.

Chinese directors have had such experience. Li An filmed "The Incredible Hulk" this summer, but it failed.

This directly affected Li An's career in Hollywood.

Therefore, if Lu Ping An fails, it will not be as simple as losing his wealth before, but his reputation will also be involved.

Han Sanpin asked himself, if it were him, he probably wouldn't be able to have much confidence.

But now that the matter has been decided, there's nothing else to say but full support.

The two sides soon drew up a rough plan.

The studio was handled by Han Sanpin. It was decided before the year to start construction as soon as possible, and there was plenty of time. According to Lu Ping'an's speed, "Batman" was estimated to take at least four months to shoot, which was completely within time.

After chatting, Han Sanpin once again talked about the eight minutes in Athens.

No surprise, Lao Mouzi was decided.

Lu Ping'an felt no fluctuation in his heart, which was all expected.

Hu Qingquan was a little lucky. He knew that being able to direct for 8 minutes was a great honor, but he felt that it was still too big for Lu Ping An, whose small body could not handle it.

It's good now. If you can't direct, just do your job and practice well, and strive for this kind of stage when you have the opportunity in the future.

After the two chatted for a while at China Film Academy, Lu Pingan and Hu Qingquan returned to school.

There are basically no classes at school at this time, and there are only one or two final exams left before the holidays.

This has nothing to do with Lu Ping'an, just go to the cutscene when you have time.

When I arrived at the principal's office, I told Principal Zhang about Batman.

Principal Zhang was extremely happy.

There was actually no need to talk about this matter, but Hu Qingquan asked if he could get Nortel to give him a few spots on the crew for communication purposes.

Hu Qingquan is now the deputy director of the directing department.

He is no longer as free as before and needs some similar achievements.

Lu Ping'an didn't put him in trouble, and Hu Qingquan tried his best to help. Now that he has made a request, the gang will naturally help.

Anyway, it won't affect the operation of the crew, so it's not a big problem to give a few places.

So now "Batman" has become a project in which Nortel is involved.

This wouldn't be very rewarding in business, but it would be different for schools.

Looking across the country, or even across Asia, how many schools have the opportunity to deeply participate in major Hollywood productions?

Even if someone says you worship money, it won't matter.

Anyway, you don’t participate in investment, you just communicate with the world’s top teams, what’s the problem?

Even others can’t envy you.

So Hu Qingquan became the "enshrinement" in the eyes of Principal Zhang.

"Teacher Hu, this communication is all about you. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask."

Seeing Principal Zhang like that, Lu Ping'an couldn't help but wonder, would Hu Qingquan be promoted to a high official by him in the future?

After talking about the project, Principal Zhang talked about two more things.

One is to ensure that you are a graduate student, so you can just choose a mentor when the time comes, and don’t worry about the rest.

Lu Ping An discussed this issue with Hu Qingquan, and Hu Qingquan suggested that Lu Ping An choose Tian Zhuangzhuang.

This is related to the future Lu Ping An Award winning plan for feature films.

Unless Lu Pingan will only make commercial films in the future, he still needs to learn about literary and artistic films.

In terms of film artistic practice, Hu Qingquan only paid lip service and could not help much.

Lu Pingan accepted the suggestion. He had no interest in literary films or anything like that, but it was still possible to learn experience and techniques. If you want to make highly artistic films such as "Brokeback Mountain" and "Beautiful Life", you may not be able to just use the means of commercial films, otherwise Let alone transcendence by then, 90% restoration is unlikely.

Principal Zhang then talked about the second thing, which was about letting Lu Pingan join the Film Association.

Lu Ping'an agreed without much hesitation.

How could you refuse to join a group chat without any reason? Wouldn't this cause trouble for yourself?

After staying at school for an hour, Lu Ping An sent Hu Qingquan home.

Next, Hu Qingquan will work with Han Sanpin to set up domestic studios.

After leaving school, I safely transferred back to the company and started the post-production of "Wonderful Night".

He wanted to completely edit the film first, and then let the music score teacher take over.

Yan Danchen and Zeng Li were both busy. Yan Danchen was already busy, but Zeng Li was a little less busy.

But as an actor, he is somewhat famous. Even if Zeng Li is not popular now, he still has endless dramas to perform.

Lu Ping'an specifically asked what kind of drama it was, and it turned out that it was a drama whose name he had heard before, called "The Glory of Love". It was a 23-episode TV series, and there were not many famous actors in it.

So this probably won't be broadcast in the future.

These days, the mainland can produce 700 to 800 dramas every year, but only a handful of them are actually broadcast. Zeng Li also said that in the past four years since she graduated, she has acted in at least 15 dramas, with supporting roles, guest roles, and leading roles. However, they are currently not broadcast for success. Only less than ten were released.

So whether an actor can become famous really depends on luck.

But that's fine, since both women are gone, Lu Ping'an can concentrate on post-production.

On January 10th, the news of "House of Flying Daggers" popped up again.

""House of Flying Daggers" will be completed at the end of the month, and Zhang Yimou will go to Australia for post-production."

Several media outlets reported the news.

So the news about "House of Flying Daggers" jumped directly to the headlines of today's entertainment news.

The head of the company's publicity department said: "This is not the first time."

"House of Flying Daggers" has been leaking various news from time to time since the end of December.

For example, Hua Tsai's scenes were completed, the Peony House of International Chapter was so beautiful, the crew had problems with the wire rope, etc.

A few days ago, it was said that "House of Flying Daggers" might not be able to make it in time for the Berlin Film Festival due to shooting schedule issues, and the press release read "Fear of Missing the Golden Bear."

These messages look horrifying every time, but upon closer inspection they are just mindless scraps, but they attract huge attention every time.

It’s the same today, too. “It’s about to be completed” is not the focus. The focus is “going to Australia for post-production.”

This is the key point, let people see it, good guys, "House of Flying Daggers" is so high-end, an international production!

Lu Ping'an knew that Zhang Weiping's propaganda offensive had entered into gear.

As someone who has experienced it, he knows that the promotion of "House of Flying Daggers" is actually more powerful than that of "Hero".

"Hero" received huge support from the top at that time, so even if many things were not done well, it would have an excellent publicity effect.

Lu Pingan's "Source Code" at that time also benefited from this aspect.

Without much effort in publicity, it attracted national attention.

This time "House of Flying Daggers" does not have the support from above, but Zhang Weiping can still achieve a saturation effect in the promotion of "House of Flying Daggers".

Much more money has been invested in publicity, and the publicity cycle and plan are much more regular than those of "Hero". In addition, Lao Mouzi is the top director these days, and the inherent advantage of publicity is huge.

If this pace continues, "House of Flying Daggers" will maintain its publicity advantage before its release.

But he has a publicity plan, and so does Ping An.

Let’s do a little warm-up first.

That night, a message suddenly dropped on the domestic entertainment network:

"'Batman' will be a co-production film and will be shot in the Mainland."

Suddenly, the headlines changed hands.
