China Entertainment special effects started in 1997

The mainland box office of "Hong Huang: Hou Yi Shooting the Sun" is 2.273 billion. If "The Fall of Heaven" can exceed or achieve similar results, the total mainland box office of the two films will be 4.5 or 6 billion, which is also a very shocking data.

This further stimulated the bosses of other film companies, who all felt that they could reap the box office bonus of the market vacated by Jiang Heng.

For a time, the Chinese-language film market was very lively. Not only directors and actors were thinking about directing new films.

Even writers crossed over to the film industry and became directors, and there were more than one.

The first one was Guo Jinming. In fact, he had invited Yang Mi as early as the beginning of the year and wanted her to participate in the movie "Tiny Times".

However, Guo Jinming was not a person outside the entertainment industry, and it was not easy for him to cross over, and his confidence was not so high.

The preparations for filming were even slower, and the actors' schedules had to be coordinated, so the filming did not start until the end of the year.

Suddenly, I heard that Jiang Heng would suspend filming for a year, and I felt that this was a rare opportunity. I aimed the film schedule at the 2013 Spring Festival, and it would definitely start shooting in the near future.

The other is Han Han, who is not unfamiliar with the film and television industry and has also been in contact with Jiang Heng. In fact, he had the idea of ​​making a film a long time ago, but he had never put it into action.

This time, it was not him who took the initiative to make a film, but Yu Dong talked to him about the idea of ​​investing.

After talking a few times, they hit it off.

…

But the entertainment industry is full of turmoil and excitement.

But Jiang Heng has not been heard from since the wrap-up party of "Black Myth".

Some said he went abroad, some said he was in Beijing, anyway, they all said he was busy with the post-production work of the film.

It was not until the premiere ceremony of "The Flowers of War" that he reappeared in front of the media and the audience.

The reporters were very excited, much happier than seeing Zhang Yimou, Ni Ni and other film creators.

"Hello, Director Jiang. Recently, there has been news that you will stop filming for a year starting from the New Year. Is that true?"

Jiang Heng smiled, "It's true, not after the New Year, but now!"

"Then what are your considerations?"

"No special considerations, I've been busy filming, my nerves are tense, and I need a good rest. Just like everyone works five days a week and needs to relax on the weekend!"

The reporters laughed at this, because many of them can't guarantee a weekend off!

"Hello, Director Jiang, I'm a reporter from Xinlang Entertainment. I saw a saying on the Internet that you want to stop filming because you have no good inspiration and creativity, and your career is at a bottleneck, right?"

Jiang Heng laughed, "Of course not, there are a lot of creative ideas, and there are too many things to shoot. Don't worry, in 2013, the king will definitely come back!"

The reporters laughed, but they didn't think Jiang Heng was arrogant.

After all, in terms of his current achievements and status, he is the absolute king of the Chinese film market.

Including Hollywood, there are not many who can "tie" with him!

After the premiere, as usual, there was a thank-you dinner, but this time there were a lot of guests, and they were mainly movie company bosses and directors.

The purpose and intention were obvious, that is, they wanted to hear Jiang Heng's vacation arrangements in person. For a while, there was a constant stream of toasts.

"Hello, Director Jiang, I'm Guo Jinming!"

"Hello, I know you, a best-selling author!"

Because Yang Mi signed the contract for the female lead of "Tiny Times", iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Pictures and Guo Jinming are considered to be in a cooperative relationship, and Jiang Heng naturally has to give the other party some face.

And Guo Jinming can be very successful, and he is also a smart man, and he speaks a lot of beautiful words.

He said that Jiang Heng was his idol, young, handsome, and accomplished. He couldn't write such a male lead in his novels. It was a bit unrealistic to be so perfect.

Jiang Heng haha, just dealt with a few words casually.

He didn't have a very obvious like or dislike for this person, and the same was true for "Tiny Times".

How to say it, he actually thinks that this film was shot too early.

If it can wait until the era of short videos, when the audience can see the lives of those rich people and their faces showing off their wealth, perhaps the reputation will not be so bad.

Of course, he didn't invest in the film, so it's useless to say it, so he naturally doesn't bother to say that.

Han Han also came, following Yu Dong, like a little brother.

After toasting, Yu Dong said that Bona Films was going to invest in Han Han's self-written and self-directed film. Jiang Heng politely praised him and said that he had a bright future!

Yu Dong smiled embarrassedly and said that Han Han's first cross-border film was still paid by us. You must guide him when you are free.

Jiang Heng glanced at Yu Dong, and you knew what he was thinking by looking at his smile. He wanted him to be a nominal producer!

After all, he only said that the filming work was suspended, and being a nominal producer did not conflict with what he said.

In addition, Han Han's film has the title of its own producer, and there are too many benefits in publicity.

I have to say, Old Yu's calculations are loud enough!

Jiang Heng didn't say anything definite, just said that he had time.

The people around him were all smart people, their eyes were shining, thinking whether they could invite Jiang Heng to be the nominal producer with their current relationship.

If this is realized, at least an extra 100 million will be sold!

Guo Jinming on the side was envious when he heard this, and looked at Han Han on the side from time to time.

Unfortunately, he and Jiang Heng were also meeting for the first time, and there was no big middleman like Yu Dong, so he couldn't say that he would ask Jiang Heng to be the producer.

As for asking Yang Mi to help intercede, it was probably not possible, and he had to find Liu Yifei or Jing Tian to have hope.

But he didn't know that no matter how much money he paid, Jiang Heng would never be related to "Tiny Times"!

After the dinner, Jiang Heng wanted to go home directly.

Zhang Yimou said that he wanted to find a place to have some tea and chat.

Jiang Hengxin said, don’t you also plan to make a new movie?

Finally, when we arrived at the teahouse, we sat down and had a chat.

Zhang Yimou's idea is that after so many years of "running for the Olympics", this time he has the greatest hope.

If it succeeds, I will definitely not make similar films in the future.

If he fails, he will never compete for an Oscar again.

Therefore, after "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", he is ready to transform.

I just haven’t decided yet whether to make a purely artistic or commercial film.

Not wanting to encounter Jiang Heng who wanted to suspend filming, Zhang Yimou's mind became a little wild.

I can also shoot blockbusters. "Hero" is the first blockbuster in China Entertainment Films besides Jiang Heng's works. He has been making commercial blockbusters in these years!

Jiang Heng couldn't help but ask, "What type of photography do you want to take now?"

Zhang Yimou said: "What do you think of filming fantasy and special effects?"

Jiang Heng smiled and said, "Not bad!"

"Well, that's what I think. The cost of special effects blockbusters is too high, and there's a lot of pressure to just rely on the domestic market to make money back. We can consider Sino-US co-production!"

Jiang Heng hurriedly stretched out his hand and said: "No, there is no need for a Sino-US co-production, we can afford it ourselves. At worst, I will make a guest appearance as a producer, and you don't have to worry about overseas promotion!"

Zhang Yimou grinned after hearing this, "That's fine. If you say so, I'll have the confidence in my heart!"

Jiang Heng asked: "What type of photography do you want to take?"

Zhang Yimou said: "I think, Director Jiang, you have only dabbled in monster movies among the many genre films. You can totally explore them!"

Furthermore, "Heaven's Downfall" is so popular, and everyone is particularly interested in the ancestral witches and the monsters mentioned in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas"! "(End of chapter)
