Chapter 203 Another World
There are five categories of films here, namely, one family films, two categories of children's films, three categories of juvenile films, four types of restricted films, and five categories of adult films.
According to the theme of vampires, it should be in the fourth restricted level, that is to say, children under the age of 13 are prohibited from entering the cinema to watch, and children between the ages of 13 and 17 must be accompanied by their families.
But what Hongye Entertainment didn't expect was that such a film, which did not seem to be too bloody and violent, was divided into the fifth category of films.
Here, the fifth category of films is synonymous with violence, pornography, swearing and terror, and is absolutely forbidden to watch under the age of 17.
Even if everyone is prepared, they didn't expect that the country would grade such films like this. But things have become a fore fore, and we can only look forward to a good reputation. As for the box office, it's almost enough.
In fact, Ye Zhiqiu and others also thought of the key point at this time. The reason is that the film was too hot from before the start of shooting to the end of shooting.
Unlike the enlightenment and freedom of speech in many European countries, China still has a lot of concerns due to the influence of thousands of years of traditional culture.
In fact, Ye Zhiqiu did not know that because of this film, the relevant entertainment review departments also conducted several audits and debates. Finally, in order to curb the rapid development of this kind of film, he positioned it as a fifth category of film. At the same time, the number of theaters is also given the most severe review, so that it can only get the smallest number of cinemas at each level, and it is strictly limited. Even if the box office has a good reputation, it is impossible to continue to increase the maximum number of cinemas.
This time, for a period of time after the release of the night visit to vampires, many entertainment groups that were wanted to shoot such films gave up the idea of shooting.
Although Ye Zhiqiu's momentum is now increasing, with multiple identities and great box office appeal, his value is not high among the countless actors in the film industry. Reluctantly stepping into the ranks of first-class artists, considering Ye Zhiqiu's current reputation, his current value has reached 10 million.
Imagine that Liu Tianle's value is only between 15 million and 20 million. Ye Zhiqiu has only made his debut for five years. Even if he plays in several blockbuster movies, no matter how high his value is, he can't reach the level of 10 million.
Now in Hongye Entertainment, Qinlan's value has barely reached five million, not to mention Yan Xiaoqian and Xuanxuan. Yan Xiaoqian barely reached one million, and Xuanxuan didn't even reach one million.
This is the difference between movies and TV. At least first-class TV stars can get a salary of two or three hundred thousand yuan per episode, and a TV series of dozens of episodes can get a huge amount of ten or two hundred thousand yuan, which can't be underestimated. A better episode can get one hundred and eighty thousand yuan, the worst one can get one or twenty thousand yuan, and the worse one is only a few thousand yuan.
Don't think that the price of two stars who may have the same popularity to star in a TV series or movie is the same. The gap may be one hundred thousand miles, which is unexpected.
That's why Ye Zhiqiu quoted 7 million yuan when shooting a night visit to vampires. After the Spring Festival Gala, based on his own popularity, under the leadership of economists, he increased the quotation of 3 million yuan, reaching the current amount of 10 million. What Ye Zhiqiu didn't expect was that after the value of 10 million yuan was reported to the entertainment guild, it was successfully passed, which shows that Ye Zhiqiu's value is also very recognized.
On the other hand, although Ye Zhiqiu only shot a Xiao Ao Jianghu TV series, he also reached the sky-high price of 100,000 yuan in the price of the TV series industry. Although Ye Zhiqiu has never thought of shooting a TV series, as an artist, it is necessary to have a quotation.
With a quotation, what Ye Zhiqiu didn't expect was that many entertainment groups directly contacted Ye Zhiqiu's agent and wanted to invite Ye Zhiqiu to join in the filming of movies or TV series. Obviously, Ye Zhiqiu was favored and favored by countless people. As for what he values, it is nothing more than the huge market and appeal that Ye Zhiqiu hides today.
Take the shooting sculpture that is ready to start shooting now as an example. Even if Ye Zhiqiu is a supporting role, Hongye Entertainment has to pay Ye Zhiqiu 100,000 yuan for an episode on the surface. This is still the price of a guest appearance, not a real leading role. As for the other actors, they were extremely embarrassed, and everyone barely reached Ye Zhiqiu's standard.
However, the benefits of Ye Zhiqiu are also obvious. The shooting is only announcing the news of the start of shooting. Although it is not directed by Ye Zhiqiu, because of the hot sales of the shooting novels and comics, there are more and more TV stations that come to buy broadcasting rights, and the price is getting higher and higher. With several leading actors not participating in the performance, the value has more than doubled.
"It's time to prepare for the night visit to the release of vampires..."
In the Fengyun studio, everyone did not breathe a sigh of relief, but felt that the pressure had increased a lot.
"If the box office is not good, but the word-of-mouth response is good, do you still want to continue shooting?" Lu Chen asked.
"In 25 days, as long as the country can reach 50 million, then continue to shoot. If it really doesn't work, find a way to release it abroad." Ye Zhiqiu finally spoke.
Everyone was relieved. It's a pity to throw away such a good script like that. Now that they have got this answer, they are also relieved.
" By the way, how's our computer stunt group going? Can we catch up?" Ye Zhiqiu asked.
Lu Hedao, the leader of the stunt group, said: "We have successfully built a special effects team of more than 30 people, all of whom are masters. After the previous simple test of Xiao Ao Jianghu, there is basically no problem."
Ye Zhiqiu was a little relieved. Although Hongye Entertainment has this kind of group, it basically has no effect. It can only be barely applied to some TV series and can't be used in movies at all. Coupled with the growth of Hongye Entertainment Animation Department, it has now expanded to hundreds of people, forming several departments and more than a dozen groups for comics, but it has reached the forefront of comics. After publishing the comics, it has become a system, and the speed is amazing.
"Although Liang Zhuhe's subsequent Xiaoao Jianghu movie version does not use many stunts, most of them are stunts in the wind and clouds. Luhe, you should speed up the time and get ready. First, make the special effects of the sword pool, life plate, Lingyun cave, fire unicorn and so on in the Fengyun script, and then integrate it inward."
Lu He nodded and knew that his team had finally had a formal task. He believes that during the period when Ye Zhiqiu filmed Liang Zhu and Xiao Ao Jianghu, he would definitely do it perfectly.
Ye Zhiqiu said again, "What I want is to be shocking. I can surpass the original work on the basis of loyalty to the original work. I have to make it impossible to distinguish the true from the false in the special effects, and I can't find any loopholes."
Lu He said cautiously, "Is it a reference to the martial arts in the comic version?"
Ye Zhiqiu said, "I will then ask the Hongye Entertainment Comics Department to give you a detailed information. You can refer to the comics and materials to do it..."
Ye Zhixin's comic style has become a great success. It not only has the artistic conception of traditional Chinese painting, but also has the gorgeous and realistic oil painting. Therefore, as soon as Fengyun comics come out, it will have such a great impact.
More importantly, Fengyun's painting style surpasses all previous comics. In the shaping of characters and swords and beasts, after referring to Ye Zhiqiu's proposal and correction, it has reached the peak.
So every time an episode of Fengyun Comics is on the market, it will be snapped up in a very short time, and what is usually snapped up is collected as a treasure after watching it.
Ye Zhixin also officially became a comic master character by virtue of Fengyun, and won the title of the youngest beauty cartoonist and beauty comic master. His works were made into a hardcover version, and the collector's edition was sold abroad at a high price. Although the fans are not as good as Ye Zhiqiu, they are also compared with many first-class artists.
Thinking of the future blockbuster era, Ye Zhiqiu felt that it was still not enough.
said cautiously: "There are not enough 30 people in the special effects group, at least 60 people. Don't be afraid of spending money. I need to form a most professional stunt team."
Everyone looked at each other and didn't know what Ye Zhiqiu wanted to do.
"Do you plan to shoot a blockbuster?" Ji Wenhao and the four of them couldn't help but get excited.
Lu He gritted his teeth and said, "I will try my best to do this."
Ye Zhiqiu thought of the Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean and other epic series of films, which are not only about the huge special effects team. An experienced special effects makeup team is needed.
"Seaside, your makeup team is going to work harder. Time doesn't wait for anyone." Ye Zhiqiu said to the seaside with his nails.
Haibin smiled and said, "Allah, I have tried to find a lot of masters to come here during this period. I still say that if you want to turn people into pigs, we can do it for you, and you can rest assured..."
Ye Zhiqiu is speechless. This guy's mantra is to turn people into pigs, and his makeup ability can't be underestimated.
Thinking that the shooting of the eagle is about to start shooting, Ye Zhiqiu said, "The shooting of the eagle is about to start shooting. Come with me and make up for the four of us."
Haibin nodded and said, "No, I left this to me."
With the shooting of the eagle shooting a few days later, Ye Zhiqiu also entered the shooting crew, and the seaside was indeed extraordinary. It made Ye Zhiqiu much older and could not see any flaws. Because Ye Zhiqiu was going to shoot Liang Zhu later, Ye Zhiqiu asked to shoot his play first. So for a while, the whole crew turned around Ye Zhiqiu, and in less than ten days, they finished shooting Ye Zhiqiu's play.
Although there were many difficulties in playing the role of Ouyang Feng during the period, Ye Zhiqiu's acting skills have made great progress, and after several adjustments, he was completely taken down.
The time entered April 1st. On this day, the night visit to vampires finally premiered in the country, and the fans who had been following for a while began to move.
At the premiere, as the leading actor, Ye Zhiqiu accepted interviews and questions from reporters and sang a song on the spot.In the cinema, many audiences are curious about this film, which has been controversial from beginning to end. And many teenagers under the age of 17 were not able to watch the film because of the grading system. As a result, many young fans were full of complaints but had nowhere to send them. For the first time, they complained about how they could say such small words... No one expected that with the end of the first day of the film, there would soon be several articles about vampires. Comments and reports appear. In the past few days, more and more entertainment reports and film critics have posted mixed comments.
Among all the reports, three of the comments from three famous directors in China were very popular for a while, reaching the peak of all the comments.
Zhou Mutai, one of the super directors of China, is also Ji Wenhao's idol.
Zhou Mutai's article said: "The long history of vampires is no less than any mythical god in China. In my opinion, they are closer to reality and more reasonable. Since ancient times, people have always had different views on the soul, so countless cultures and legends of gods and demons have emerged in thousands of years in the world. Among them, vampires and werewolves occupy a lot of space in the Western ghost culture system..."
"Actually, I'm curious why Ye Zhiqiu will produce a vampire film, not a ghost film in the traditional Chinese sense, or a zombie film similar to vampires..."
Although Zhou Mutai's article is about history, almost everyone can see that he still supports and admires Fengyun Studio for doing such a thing. It's just because he stood at the top of China and stepped on the world stage, so it's difficult for people to take the handle when talking around the corner.
After Zhou Mutai, Lu Zhishu, another super director of China, seemed to have made an appointment with Zhou Mutai. He praised the persistence of the portrayal of people's surnames in the film Night Visit to Vampires and promoted the idea of humanity, but he did not mention whether such a film should be made or not.
The third place is Chen Friendly. The director of Hua Guoda, who has had an intersection with Ye Zhiqiu, praised this very wonderful film with the most direct praise, and said that he watched it twice in one breath, and his psychology was very touched. I hope that the audience can watch this film with an objective attitude... The influence of the three people The force is great, which basically guides the audience to watch the movie, which makes some film critics strange.
At this time, Ye Zhiqiu and others reacted that these three top directors did not want to praise anything, but wanted to make China positive with their own reputation. It's just that it was not explicitly stated for national reasons, but gave an objective evaluation.
For many people, they didn't understand the meaning, but were foolishly affected and went to the cinema to watch the film.
Countless audiences who have seen the film are all surprised by this. They are shocked by the views expounded by the film from beginning to end, shocked by the beauty of the film, and surprised by the confusion and pain of the protagonist struggling on both sides of the human name.
Many audiences even entered the cinema several times to watch the film and expressed their support for the film through the Internet.
"In my opinion, this is a great film, which not only opens a chapter of another kind of film, but also reflects a strange and different world..."
