China Entertainment: Director’s happiness is so simple

Domestic promotion of the summer film is vigorous.

What everyone is discussing more is that mainland movies have entered a new era.

Dominated by literary films from the 20th century.

The blockbuster era began in 2002.

And now in the era of super blockbusters.

Suddenly there are several movies costing more than 500 million.

The development of domestic films seems to be even more fierce than the growth of GDP.

Many people have expressed concerns about whether this is too fast and whether it is blowing a bubble.

More people are happy to see the results.

There is nothing wrong with having too many blockbusters.

Anyway, if domestic films are not released, the market will still be ruthlessly whipped by Hollywood.

So most people are optimistic.

In the deep-level industry, everyone also feels that the power structure of mainland movies seems to have begun to change.

Huayi began to pursue the stars bravely in production.

Chinese Film also used "Red Cliff" to start a counterattack against China Film.

Xiangjiang has also joined the feast with "The Legend", "Dragon Tiger Gate" and "The Fuse", and the latter two will also compete for this summer's release.

Also in terms of theaters, new forces such as Wanda have begun to officially show their strength.

The growth rate of big screen in mainland China has increased visibly.

The film market dominated by great directors such as Lao Mouzi and the Great Poet seems to be moving in the direction of numerous capitals vying for the top spot.

What this brings about is that the market structure is becoming increasingly difficult to understand.

But Lu Ping'an is still very calm about this.

Because after all, it is still the same sentence.

The work is beautiful and can break everything.

"So the most important thing is the work. You know, for actors, acting skills are still fundamental. Unless you directly define yourself as a star, which one should you choose? A vase with connotation or a vase without connotation?"

Lu Pingan asked Fan Xiaopang on the phone.

"So I will always be a vase?" Fan Xiaopang asked with a smile.

"You look like this, why don't you make vases?"

"I feel so sad when you say that."

"Stupid, Yuan Qinghua is also a vase, and the ones from Yiwu Small Commodity Market are also vases, can they be the same?"

"Why so fierce?"

".I'm going to be busy. You can play well. Goodbye."

After hanging up the phone and ignoring Fan Xiaopang, who was becoming a little strange, Lu Pingan thought about what he had just talked about on the phone.

The news that Fan Xiaopang recently started a solo company has been exposed, but due to the issue of pre-heating for the summer movie, it seems that it has not received much attention.

It's okay to downplay some things and leave room for future operations, which will also allow her to film with peace of mind.

Her "Rouge Snow" is about to be launched, with an investment of 28 million. Based on the original income, the future profit will reach 72 million.

The profits are high, but you also have to pay attention to the secrets inside.

If you really want to cause chaos, leave immediately without hesitation.

Of course, if Fan Xiaopang was not at fault, then there would be another approach.

Keep shooting, time flies by.

At the end of April, "Kung Fu Panda" received good news.

On April 30, with the help of buff, the dubbing and sound effects work of "Kung Fu Panda" was completely completed.

The widowed sister said with emotion: "I didn't expect that I am quite suitable for dubbing. I passed it in three times and it was super smooth."

Lu Ping'an gave her a big thumbs up.

Then we started sorting out the harvest.

The degree of completion of "Kung Fu Panda" is the highest among the projects he has produced so far.

A full 126%.

Also because it exceeded 120%, this time the rewards were not only super rewards, but also ordinary rewards.

Ordinary reward: A random animal-themed movie.

Super Bonus: Animal Affinity.

Effect: In front of the camera, animal actors can follow instructions, and some effects are added to humans. At the same time, outside the camera, it can increase the animal affinity of the host himself.

These two rewards

Lu Ping'an still likes it quite a lot.

The ordinary rewards will be put away first. Anyway, the drawn works can ignore the timeline. There are too many things to do now, so I will draw them later.

In the case of the latter, it would be quite good to put aside animals and so on, and "partially increase the effect on humans".

As a director, training actors is a basic skill. Lu Pingan has always worked with actors who are basically capable, but he still encounters some training and coordination problems.

Now, with this skill, he can help him solve some problems. At the same time, when he meets actors with average acting skills in the future, such as Liu Qianqian, he will be even more handy!

not bad!

Lu Ping An expressed his satisfaction with a smile. As he was talking, the cold and aloof ragdoll cat brought by the widowed sister stretched and walked to Lu Ping An's feet and rubbed it with cat steps.

The big orange brought by Liu Qianqian also woke up from her arms, then jumped down and rubbed against Lu Ping'an's other foot.

Seeing the two cats like this, the two women looked at each other, and there seemed to be a spark in their eyes.

Lu Ping'an, on the other hand, was in distress.

He felt that this skill actually turned him into cat grass!

He looked at the cat hair that had quickly accumulated on his pants legs and sighed.

It will be very annoying in the future!

"Kung Fu Panda" has been completed, and the next biggest thing for Lu Ping'an is to complete "Batman 2".

"Batman 2" has been filming for nearly half a year since December last year.

There aren't many special effects, it's all real scenes, and in Hollywood where the work system must be followed, even if you have a buff, you really can't speed up the filming progress. The most you can do is to ensure that nothing happens.

Fortunately, after half a year of work, the final scene is finally coming.

For the final scene of "Batman 2", Lu Ping'an arranged the famous clown scene, that is, the scene where the nurse pretends to be a clown and presses the button to blow up the hospital.

Almost everyone in the crew, except Nolan, was opposed to actually blowing up a "hospital".

It’s too expensive!

But it's no use.

The explosion scenes that "Batman" has always encountered are all real buildings.

For example, the temple that was blown up in XZ in the first part.

There is also the priceless Lamborghini that was crashed in the second part.

Have you ever seen Lu Ping'an blink?

Lu Ping'an just likes this tune.

Nolan said, "Lu is a real-life shooting madman!"

But real shooting does come with a price.

Especially blowing up a building like this.

If you make a mistake, you will have to wait a long time to try again.

The work efficiency here in the United States is not as high as in China.

So the crew members are highly focused today.

But no matter how focused you are, you can't compare to Lu Ping'an.

Because Lu Ping’an wants to play a big game this time!

In the original film, there was a small mistake in the scene of bombing the hospital.

During filming, the building stopped moving halfway through the explosion, and the clown continued to fiddle with the remote control to make the building continue to explode.

This is a god-level missed shot.

Now "Batman 2" cannot be rewarded for Lu Pingan.

But Lu Pingan still wants to restore this classic scene in film history.

And if you want to restore it, it is naturally impossible to wait for it to make a mistake.

So manual intervention is required.

To this, the demolition team and prop team disagreed ten thousand times.

This shot costs 5 million just to buy an unfinished building. This shot costs tens of millions.

If this is a mistake, the key is not to mention the cost, how much time will be wasted for the entire crew.

But Lu Pingan insisted: "Do as I say! This shot must be shot this way! No one can stop it!"

After hearing this, Nolan also began to persuade: "The idea is very good, but you said not to tell Heath Ledger. If he makes a mistake, the shot will still have to be scrapped. It is too difficult."

"I believe in Heath Ledger!"

Lu Ping'an was determined.

He was actually afraid of making mistakes, but he had time and money anyway, so he risked his life for the pursuit of art.

"Crazy! Lu is a crazy person!"

"Shet, how come Lu isn't so crazy in other movies?"

"Yes, he was almost spoiled by Cheng Long."

"That's not as crazy as this time."

"I think it was the media that stimulated him."

"How to say?"

"His "Pacific Rim" is going to face "Fantastic Four 2" head-on, and the media says LU will be completely defeated."

"What does this have to do with Batman?"

"The media said that even if "Batman 2" meets "Fantastic Four 2", it will lose."

"Shet, are you talking nonsense? Is Batman comparable to those four idiots?"

"So Lu is stimulated."

Everyone started talking, but it had no effect on Lu Ping'an's decision.

So next, everyone watched with further tension as Heath Ledger began to perform in the dark.

I saw the clown wearing Crocs walking out of the hospital happily and pressing the remote control.

Bang bang bang~

Gone.

The clown was stunned, and the crew members also felt nervous.

Fortunately, Heath Ledger then used a set of smooth performances to complete the god-level "rescue".

He continued to fiddle with the remote control, and the next second, a big explosion came.

The clown was frightened, and then continued painting happily.

Lu Pingan was extremely satisfied with this scene.

This is the original film!

It’s even silkier than the original film!

Everyone else was also stunned at this moment.

The performance just now was simply indescribable!

After a few seconds, the crowd burst into enthusiastic applause.

Send it to the movie for completion.

Also to the crazy actors and that crazy director!

In mid-May, "Batman 2" was completed, and Lu Ping'an's film tasks for this year have basically been completed.

After spending another two weeks in the United States, finishing some matters, I returned to China at the end of May.

Mainland summer season is about to begin
