The entertainment industry shouldn't be like this

Chapter 139 What is the hell of a group of people who have a heart (two in one)

Comrade Lao Wang is going crazy!

He was already busy—

In Dunhuang, this year is a big New Year, and at least in terms of the number of productions, it is a big New Year.

And Wang Wei is a guy who is completely a blind bear who breaks corn.

Unlike some producers, he has to make a move on his own, and of course, conditions do not allow it;

He beat one and threw one away. In most cases, he was only responsible for making requirements and adjustments. The specific matters were managed by people from each creative department.

Lao Wang could only help him "equip" the appropriate department creators.

How busy is he?

He was so busy that even the domestic box office of "Charlotte's Troubles" officially exceeded one billion, he could only take the time to laugh three times and continue to be busy.

In this case, he received the project plan for the pioneering work of "Dawn" production company-

The new label jointly held by Chen Zhenyi and Dunhuang was officially named "Shuguang", and the meaning of it is self-evident.

——He created a bigger stage for women in the Chinese entertainment industry, broke countless precedents, and still benefited Dunhuang. This is also one of the important reasons why Shuguang responded to the female group in the circle after its establishment.

After researching, Gu Jinguang felt that one of the important reasons was that the mainstream film industry was despised by the attitude of gaming modification, even if the growth rate of the game market was much higher than that of the film market.

Gu Jinguang could only think half-doubt and half-comfortably about this tacit understanding that seemed natural.

Not that I don't have money, but—

Not to mention the "fence-behind" Lao Xu, even Lao Wang, who had insisted on opposing him, his attitude was relaxed.

Two treasure chests, one of which has harvested the "traceability halo" - this has been used before, and it is a good thing.

Therefore, the "Resident Evil" project, which was planned to be linked to film and games, quietly became Wang Wei's "villain".

"yes."

Of course, this is just a simple communication in the early stage preparation. With the refinement of various settings, the real difficulty is to seek common ground while reserving differences while respecting the logic of the two products of movies and games.

Art film: A female director must be very thoughtful and literary, and you can vote;

Commercial film: A female director must be very stingy and procrastinating, no one will invest.

"The problem is that you will never give others a chance. How do you know that people can't take pictures of subjects outside their comfort zone?"

——To study the proposition of "film and game linkage", the success or failure of video game adapted movies has become the best reference.

God! Women are even more unreasonable!

Then, while whispering the big boss in his heart, Gu Jinguang, who was having a headache about communication problems, was hit in the face after contacting the main creative team of the film led by He Wenying.

Of course, when it comes to the film and game linkage that is officially put on the agenda, Lao Wang and the others are even more helpless to cover their foreheads.

Even if there is something you don’t understand, you will ask all kinds of hidden questions unconsciously, and then everyone will communicate and optimize.

"Shuguang is originally a new company. It is set up to enter new fields. Don't stick to the rules and limit yourself to a tight end."

Wang Wei smiled slightly smugly.

"I can clearly understand the situation of their intentions with just a few words or even a look in this way. What the hell is it?!"

In particular, he also prepared some special means.

Wang Wei nodded,

"Because I'm always right!"

As a producer, the screenwriter’s reward for breaking a billion-dollar record in a single film!

Previously, except for the director's identity, as a producer, the screenwriter had no reward for breaking records.

This "Resident Evil" really breaks too many conventions!

But Lao Wang is going crazy!

However, when the "deathful" person becomes Wang Wei, everyone's tolerance seems to be much higher.

Then... I didn't figure out much.

Lao Wang's eyes twitched and turned to Xu Daoxing, who was silent: "Lao Xu, you are the director of the production department. Let's talk about it. Is this appropriate to draw this movie to the side of Dawn?"

Not to mention the blockbusters that need special effects in the future, but only talking about the strategy of film and game linkage requires close cooperation in special effects. It is better to have one than one person.

With the urinary nature of this salted fish system, Wang Wei guessed that he was either rewarded by it before or was an identity other than director. Only milestone records can be rewarded.

In this time and space, whether it is Hollywood or the Chinese entertainment industry, if a director or production company creates a special effects studio, it usually takes the premise of the movies you shoot themselves.

The real situation is only verified.

"So we should not worry about whether to invest or not, just study the details of the project."

Think about such a group of rational people who only talk about the highest efficiency, and who meet a group of emotional people who want to mobilize the audience's feelings to the greatest extent, making them cry, laugh, frightened, and hold their breath and concentrate, maybe Mars hits the earth!

Comrade Lao Wang sighed helplessly,

"The result is still as you wish!"

Lao Wang's face also became serious: "That's not an easy thing!"

——Although the old man is so proud of his own chicken soup, he is really qualified to give people chicken soup.

"Does our team have hidden skills to make movies?"

How do two teams with completely different ways of thinking communicate?

For example, most of their game development teams are instrumental and rational people.

Well, it is said to be "success or failure", but in fact it is only "success or failure".

In fact, it is not just him, but also the film creation team led by He Wenying, who also has the same feeling.

In particular, the main creative team of "Resident Evil" is still mainly women.

After all, this broken system has always been aware of summarizing it in just one word in the introduction.

Two lottery chests!

...

Combining thrilling survival, puzzle elements and thrilling gunfights, plus a storyline full of suspense and human conspiracy...

"The ones who fight zombies are women, and most of the main creators are women. Do you still have to be all the zombies in it, and they are women, to be considered female-themed movies?"

Therefore, "Resident Evil" was such a pleasant decision as the first movie produced by Shuguang Studio.

Not to mention how the media praised each other, Wang Wei received unexpected surprise from Tongzi, who had almost no sense of existence on that day.

"I plan to set up my own special effects studio and take on some special effects and post-production of my own movies in the future."

Therefore, the first principle of film and game linkage that he determined was to allow game developers and movie creators to participate in it and create for what they love.

Many of them don’t even play games, but in a very short communication, they roughly know what kind of game the other party wants-

Xu Daoxing nodded and said, "A special effects studio requires a lot of technical personnel. If there is not enough business, it cannot afford them. That is just burning money."

However, the cooperation with He Wenying's team broke Gu Jinguang's consistent perception-

[Common halo (once-time) - Wearing can enable a project designated by the host to establish a connection between members in communication.]

As it turns out, a certain tutor is still the salted fish tutor, but the things released are as good as ever.

Wang Wei finalized this without much hesitation.

"Well..."

"This is a female-themed movie!??"

"All right!"

The answer is obviously embarrassing - not.

You should know that not to mention the cooperation between two teams with very different thinking, it is one of the reasons why their own teams affect cooperation, and communication and tacit understanding between each other.

But working in such an atmosphere is already hard to stop.

At this point, they are far less courageous than the older generation in Dunhuang!

Lao Xu smoothed out the situation, "Speaking of this, this is the first time Dunhuang filming a science fiction movie that requires a lot of special effects. Is the special effects production outsourcing or..."

If they were asked to make a zombie film with their hearts, it would be like this—

"Female directors only stay in their comfort zone. You said that they always put artistic personal expression first, and it is difficult for them to break through the constraints brought by the female perspective."

Wang Wei is right. As juniors who have been blessed, they dare not even take any risks, which is really unreasonable.

Of course, about Wang Wei’s claim to be honest, I can only laugh.

There will be no silly feeling of powerlessness that no one can explain clearly; there will be no one being pointed out by others, but they will never know what the use of what they do, and they may even feel that they are wasting their efforts.

The irritability and helplessness.

"They are out of their comfort zone. You also suspect that they are not capable enough and are unwilling to invest big investments in them."

"Why aren't it a female-themed movie?"

"It's right to say that, but isn't the tradition of Dunhuang just 'death on the initiative'?"

Of course, sometimes, they find some problems in their subconscious mind, but they will not say them out for various reasons.

Wang Wei curled his lips and said, "So I am the only one who is honest. You are all pretending to be honest, but you are shouting no in your heart."

"Although you said that, I still think that you clearly see that the company is able to afford to lose money now, and then choose to jump around on the verge of dying."

But it is more likely that they will start from the source to argue, what is the mechanism of zombies? The zombie production science is unscientific... and then we concluded that zombies cannot have zombies, and making such movies is meaningless.

Give up.

——Anyone trying to shoot such a movie should shoot himself or be shot to death by the audience.

"There is a lot of demand for the "Resident Evil" series alone, and we need a special effects studio."

Also, the budget of 50 million makes Lao Wang want to scold her.

Gu Jinguang of Weibo Technology, as the game project director who connects with "Resident Evil", imagined many problems encountered in the linkage of film and game from the very beginning.

However, in any literary and artistic work, especially film and television works, this instrumental rationality is fatal.

This is a serious matter, Wang Wei's face became serious.

I didn't know for a moment whether I hope this guy will continue to be unsuccessful and make him proud; or I hope this guy will fall apart and make him humble in the future.

The key is that this efficient communication is so comfortable!

Lao Xu didn't dare to take it casually, and said slowly: "It's not unreasonable to classify this film as a female-themed movie; however, this kind of bloody violence, fighting and killing theme, is handed over to a female director.

Can she handle the filming?”

After the virus outbreak, the protagonist catches a zombie and studies it, burys the laboratory to develop vaccines, then organizes factory production, and finally popularizes vaccines step by step. Zombies are no longer a threat, the whole play ends.

So, Lao Xu’s question is actually whether Wang Wei will get involved in science fiction, fantasy and other subjects?

However, there is an occasional surprise, and this feeling is quite good.

Wang Wei knew that they were right.

To understand, the best way is to know it after using it.

Wang Wei has the expression of being a discriminatory male zombie.

What about the promised positioning of "art films and female-themed films"? Which art film or female-themed film have you seen that requires such a high budget?

This is not his positioning of "Dawn" production company!

Another one has opened up a new "common halo".

"In addition to this Resident Evil, are there any suitable projects for us to do later?"

In Hollywood, the most famous person in both lives was Industrial Light and Magic;

In China, the most climate-making special effects studio is the "Phantom Special Effects" under Tang Yu Media - Tang Yu Media is the most popular studio in China to shoot large-scale productions such as science fiction and fantasy. The many demands for special effects have strengthened this special effects.

company.

...

Generally speaking, if a project is so innovative, it is really a matter of no limit on death.

The theme of "beating zombies" is not new, but unlike the absolute weakness of humans in most zombie movies, this movie, renamed "Resident Evil", where zombies are beaten by girls, and the scene is not very grand.

Therefore, no game-adapted movie will involve the original staff of the game. If a group of movie creators who look down on the game from the bottom of their hearts, if the adaptation of the movie is not a bad movie, that is a myth.

"Is it really a match between men and women, and it's not tiring to work, so it has such a miraculous effect?"

Many times, team members are not incapable of their ability, nor are they unable to discover problems, but are unable to convey and feedback them efficiently.

They asked themselves, although they wanted to support female directors, did they really break their inherent impression of female directors?

Director He Wenying couldn't help but feel inspired.

Wang Wei was very thinking about the new sign.

For example, the other party's simple scene description, they seemed to see the movie scene in a trance - dark and cramped streets, ferocious zombies swaying around with teeth and claws; the ghostly lickers and tyrants are invisible places

Hissing and footsteps that are sometimes far and sometimes close...

Some of the settings are certainly not suitable for movies, but there are also many that are suitable for them, even giving them new inspiration.

Their impression is probably still in-

Yes, it's just so terrible. As of now, there are no successful broadcast movies; it's all considered a successful example of how to recover the production costs.

——Besides guessing, I can only wait for time to verify such an unreliable golden finger.

Their team seems to be able to understand what the other party said;

But this has caused new problems.

Although Lao Wang wanted to say that he was too shameless, he was silent when he thought about this guy's past record.

On the Lantern Festival of the first lunar month, the box office of "Charlotte's Troubles" officially crossed the billion mark and became a milestone work in the box office of Chinese movies.

After all, Dunhuang’s current investment strategies are Wang Wei’s first move, and with the template for success, we will follow suit.

Wang Wei's critical words left Lao Wang and Lao Xu speechless.

——This is not uncommon.

As for large teams and large companies... how do you think the "big company disease" comes from?

Generally speaking, small teams often rely on long-term running-in and tacit understanding to solve these problems so that everyone can understand each other.

From this perspective, "Resident Evil" can also be regarded as a breaking example.

"It can't be that everyone has a good understanding, so I can understand it at all?" Chen Zhenyi, who was learning to be a producer in the team, smiled mysteriously.

He Wenying was stunned and then laughed.

"If two people have a spiritual connection, it is possible, that is called a marriage that is determined by heaven; if a group of people have a spiritual connection, that is called a ghost, are there multiple babies? It is impossible."

Another day I'm too lazy to score chapters~~~
