China Entertainment special effects started in 1997

Chapter 396 The Thirteen Women of Nanjing

During the May Day period, Zhang Yimou's new film "Hawthorn Tree Love" was released. Due to proper promotion, the total box office reached 237 million yuan.

Not only did it set a new box office record for Mainland art films, it also exceeded the box office record by nearly 100 million compared to another time and space.

Not counting the copyright and box office revenue from Hong Kong, Taiwan and overseas, the box office in the mainland alone is as huge as 80 million. It is certain to make a huge profit.

After Zhang Weiping heard the relevant reports, he was so angry that his office was destroyed.

He scolded "Lao Mouzi" for his lack of loyalty and Jiang Heng for his lack of rules. However, apart from swearing in the office to vent his anger, he had no effective countermeasures and could only watch Zhang Yimou being complacent.

At the China Film Digital Base, Zhang Yimou came to visit the team, but he mainly talked about the filming of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins". It was not that he wanted to seek Jiang Heng's opinion, he could only give an announcement.

After all, when he first joined Aiyouteng Pictures, the two parties agreed that Jiang Heng would not interfere with his creation.

Therefore, after listening to Zhang Yimou's brief introduction, Jiang Heng just said solemnly, "Please be sure to make this movie!"

Zhang Yimou felt a little stressed after hearing this.

In fact, the previous version of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" was a good movie. However, due to Zhang Weiping's vulgarity and pursuit of box office, the style of the film was lowered.

In fact, the two people in the previous life broke up precisely because of this movie, and it can be said that they fought from beginning to end.

The heroines Zhao Yumo and Zhang Yimou fell in love with Ni Ni.

Zhang Weiping disagreed. He wanted Han Xiting to act, but Zhang Yimou disagreed.

In the end, Ni Ni played the role of Zhao Yumo, but was ignored on the promotional poster.

Zhang Weiping also disliked the small scale of the film and wanted to add war scenes.

During the promotion stage, they wanted to use Ni Ni's intimate scene as a gimmick, but Zhang Yimou naturally disagreed.

The two awkwardly finished the entire movie like this, and at the end Zhang Yimou simply refused to answer the phone.

Later, when the film was finished and the premiere was held, the two met again, but it was also the last time.

After the "breakup of two Zhangs", Zhang Yimou began to search for his former self, and a new generation of "mou girls" appeared on the stage.

It's just a pity that Ni Ni, who debuted when the struggle between the two broke out, quickly fell silent after her high-profile debut, and could only rely on romance and scandals to maintain the low-profile topic.

But in this life, Ni Ni's stardom should be different.

Because she signed a contract with Aiyouteng Pictures, a place currently coveted by countless female stars in the industry.

Therefore, at this moment, Ni Ni is full of confidence and hope for her future.

What surprised her even more was that she actually met Jiang Heng, whom she had admired for a long time, at the press conference of the new film "The Thirteen Beauties".

"Hello!"

"Hello, Director Jiang!"

Ni Ni had an expression of disbelief on her face. She couldn't believe that Jiang Heng was talking to her. Until Jiang Heng left, she still felt dizzy.

On the other hand, the actress in the same group on the side looked at the direction where Jiang Heng disappeared with extremely envious eyes and said, "Ni Ni, have you known Director Jiang before?"

"Don't you know me?"

"Then why does he see you so enthusiastic and familiar?"

“Perhaps it’s because of Director Zhang’s face!”

The actresses in the same cast laughed when they heard this, but when they thought about it, Ni Ni was already the heroine of "The Thirteen Beauties", and with Jiang Heng's support, she would become a popular star in no time. How dare she offend her.

He immediately said a lot of good things about "sisterly love" and hoped that Ni Ni would be able to take care of her after she became famous.

Ni Ni was still young and had a hard time keeping her face, so she naturally agreed.

I was thinking in my heart, would Director Jiang really praise me? What does it feel like to be red?

After the interview at the new film press conference, Jiang Heng left the scene directly. Jing Tan, who was accompanying him, wondered, "Are you very optimistic about this Ni Ni?"

Jiang Heng drove by himself and said casually: "It's okay!"

"Well, she has a good foundation, she is tall and very elegant. After her debut with this film, if you give her a little praise, she should become famous soon!"

Da Tiantian analyzed it as the vice president of the company, but in the end she still said doubtfully, "But why do I always feel that you look at her so kindly?"

Hearing this, Jiang Heng felt a little defensive and thought to himself, "Can I say it's because I really like her role as Zhu Suosuo in "Golden Years"?"

Of course, Jiang Heng only liked the character "Zhu Suosuo" and had no feelings for this TV series.

After returning to the China Film Digital Base, it was still the special effects shots of "Fights Breaking the Sphere".

Speaking of the special effects shots of domestic film and television dramas, some are really so crotch-stretching that they are not as good as the later Douyin short videos.

When promoting some film and television dramas, they claim that hundreds of millions of dollars were spent on special effects, but the film effects are terrible. I really don’t know where the money was spent.

And many Douyin short videos do not spend too much money to create special effects fighting scenes that are full of martial arts and martial arts atmosphere.

Although it was only played on mobile phones with small screens, the audiences who watched it were still enthusiastic.

It can be seen that many times, it is not a question of money, but whether it is done carefully.

By 2024, summer movies have failed one after another, largely due to the audience's loss of confidence in domestic films.

Of course, not only domestic films but also Hollywood films have failed.

It can only be said that after years of shoddy production, the global film market has finally experienced a backlash in terms of reputation.

The audience has been "cheated" a lot, and naturally they don't want to be fooled.

Secondly, under the impact of short videos, watching movies has become a "high-risk" form of entertainment.

Imagine that two people go out to the cinema, and it always takes some time to watch a movie for one and a half to two hours.

It would be fine if the movie was wonderful, but it is likely that you will see a not-so-good movie.

After walking out of the cinema, I still regret why I watched this. Thinking back to the time and money spent, the viewing experience is not satisfactory.

That is why more and more young people would rather stay at home and watch short videos than go to the cinema to watch movies.

Of course, if the star or director has a super high reputation, the audience is still willing to pay.

For example, Zhou Xingxing before "The New King of Comedy" was the best box office guarantee in the mainland market.

But after "The New King of Comedy", the reputation also declined sharply.

And in this time and space, the words "Director Jiang Heng" are the strongest quality guarantee.

When the audience enters the cinema, it can be said that Director Jiang's film has no artistic content, and they can also complain that the story is not novel and tortuous enough, but even the most demanding film critics have not questioned the visual effects of Jiang Heng's film.

Each of Jiang Heng's films brings some visual surprises.

The second part of "Under One Person" is the same. The film tells the story of the Heavenly Master Conference in Longhu Mountain, the competition of various strange people, and the plot of Quan Xing making trouble in Longhu Mountain. It can be said to be a fight from beginning to end.

The skills of the contestants are different, and they are highly recognizable. Coupled with the ultimate special effects, it is a visual feast.
