Chapter 503 Fan Luyuan enters the trap again(1/2)
.........
"May I ask Director Fang, what are the themes of the six new films? Will they all be released this year?"
"Director Fang, are the directors of the two new films Bao Qiang and Huang Bo?"
"Director Fang, in previous years Hengyu Media had at least 10 new film projects at the beginning of the year. Why are there so few this year?"
"When will "Immortal" be finished? Have you ever thought about making a new movie?"
Fang Ziheng's head felt swollen as he listened to the constant stream of questions.
He took two steps back slightly, pressed down with one hand, and said loudly: "Don't get excited, everyone, just be quiet for a while and come one by one. Since I have invited all the media friends to come over, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. Don't be anxious, okay?"
cut..
What a fool, when did you, Fang Laoliu, give our reporters a satisfactory answer to your new film press conference?
All the reporters frowned, their faces were dissatisfied, but their bodies were very honest. They obediently took away their microphones and returned to their seats.
Immediately, Fang Ziheng waved to the left side of the stage.
The door on the left side of the stage was pushed open, and a group of young men and women wearing sweatshirts and peaked caps came on the stage, carrying posters for six new movies.
For each of the six new films, two staff members were assigned, wearing the crew uniforms and jackets of the six films respectively.
"Havoc in Tianzhu".
"A good show".
"The Wandering Earth".
"The Romance of Dragon and Snake".
"The elixir of immortality when a ghost blows out a lamp".
"Why Silence the Shengxiao".
Six posters were spread out one by one, causing another commotion in the audience, and white lights flashed crazily.
Reporters took screenshots of the poster from all angles, fearing that the staff would take it down if they were late.
Very good, this is the taste I want.
Fang Ziheng smiled slightly, flicked the microphone with his knuckles, and said in a condensed voice: "Now, six directors will be invited to come on stage to reveal their new films!"
Wow..
Bang bang bang...
Bang bang bang...
Facing endless applause, Bao Qiang, Huang Bo, Guo Fan, Wen Muye, Wu Ershan and Su Lun appeared in front of the stage.
Fang Ziheng waved and led the six people to sit at the table. Six posters were also carried behind the six people.
One for each person, corresponding to the movie they shot respectively.
Sudden...
The eagle-eyed reporter finally discovered the blind spot, his pupils shrank sharply, his mouth widened and he exclaimed: "Fuck, "The Wandering Earth", isn't that Liu's novel of the same name?"
"What, that's a science fiction movie!"
"It's not just science fiction, it's a cliffhanger hardcore science fiction blockbuster!"
"Guo Fan directs it, God... can he do it?"
As the reporter exclaimed, other people in the audience also discovered the explosive point and subconsciously complained about Mo Ji.
On the stage, when Guo Fan heard someone questioning, his face suddenly darkened and he glared at the reporter.
If you can't fucking speak, how can a man say he can't?
"Haha...it seems you have discovered it."
Fang Ziheng sat in the center seat, held the microphone and smiled leisurely, turned sideways and pointed at Guo Fan and the poster behind him.
"Yes, Hengyu Media is preparing a science fiction film "The Wandering Earth" based on Liu's novel of the same name, with an initial investment of 450 million yuan. Guo Fan will be the director of the film."
450 million!
This is still an initial investment, this is serious!
The reporters got excited and stood up again, wanting to ask questions again.
Fang Ziheng immediately handed the microphone to Guo Fan aside, not giving them a chance.
Guo Fan took the microphone, stood up slowly in the eyes of everyone, suppressed the excitement in his heart, looked at the audience and said loudly: ""The Wandering Earth" is a science fiction novel by Liu Cixin. It tells the story of human beings who are about to turn red in order to escape from the sun.
The disaster of the giant star decided to take the earth out of the solar system and on a thrilling journey to Proxima Centauri.
The story is divided into five eras: Brake Era, Escape Era, Wandering Era I, Wandering Era II and New Sun Era."
"Here, I want to emphasize that the movie will not be shot according to the original model of the novel, we will set the background time in 2075.
In 2075, Jupiter Crisis, the movie roughly tells the story of a planetary engine failure that prevents the earth from escaping Jupiter's super gravity. Navigator Liu Peiqiang's son Liu Qi and his sister stole his grandfather's transport truck and raced on the ground, but happened to encounter a planetary engine failure.
Cai, finally joined the global rescue and jointly saved the earth's story."
Guo Fan talked eloquently, and the more he spoke, the more confident he became, sometimes explaining his creative ideas and sometimes telling plot ideas.
Behind the stage, a large screen lit up, displaying high-tech concept drawings of the movie.
This time, Hengyu Media had nothing to hide. It not only promoted the project of "The Wandering Earth" in a big way, but also publicly revealed the plot and concept drawings of the movie.
The copyright has been obtained, and Fang Ziheng and Guo Fan are not afraid of being intercepted by their peers, or stealing ideas and following suit.
Sci-fi movies are not easy to pirate and follow suit. Without an investment of 200 million to 300 million yuan, making sci-fi movies is nonsense. Not to mention insiders, the public and movie fans will be the first to not believe it.
really…
After hearing Guo Fan's narration, the reporters immediately extinguished their thoughts of questioning. The so-called experts will know if there is anything wrong as soon as they go out.
Guo Fan's ideas, shooting concepts, and the fiery light bursting out of his eyes when he spoke all made everyone excited and excited.
As reporters in the entertainment and film and television industries, they understand more or less the production process of a movie.
Guo Fan's seriousness adheres to Hengyu Media's philosophy of creating high-quality content and the originality and ingenuity of the older generation of filmmakers who make movies with care.
No matter how they exaggerated their expressions or praised and trampled upon them after they returned, at this moment, they were all infected by Guo Fan's explanation.
They are all Chinese. If Chinese science fiction movies can really rise, as non-staff members of the industry, they can also be proud.
Of course.
If "The Wandering Earth" hits the market and Guo Fan fails to shoot it well, it will be another accident.
They, the uncrowned kings, will let Guo Fan know what it means to show off and be struck by lightning.
Now, I’ll just trust you once!
………
After Guo Fan, it was Wen Muye and Wu Ershan's turn, and they published their creative ideas for "The Romance of Dragon and Snake" and "Ghost Blowing the Lamp: Elixir of Immortality" in turn.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Fortunately, Wen Muye has directed the "Manslaughter" series, "National Security 1", and "Detective Chinatown 2" and has become another rising star in the Chinese film industry.
Great director.
This time, the Chinese martial arts-themed "The Romance of Dragon and Snake" is being directed by five giant film and television companies, Hengyu, Hua Yi, Bona, Guangxian, and Wanda Pictures. As long as the film is up to standard, there is almost no need to worry about box office failure.
The only worry is whether Fumino can capture the flavor of martial arts in the novel and create a touching martial arts world.
Reporters are more worried about "The Elixir of Immortality", or they are questioning Wu Ershan just like they questioned Guo Fan.
This kind of doubt is not about Wu Ershan's lack of ability, but about whether the other party can make a second film that will satisfy the public based on "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Secret of the Dragon".
After all, the director of the first film is Fang Ziheng!
With Yuzhu in front, the public is looking forward to the second part even more. It won't be worse than the first part, but it won't be worse.
Wu Ershan also knows that everyone has doubts about him, but he is full of confidence and can easily describe the concept of film creation and the artistic conception of the picture, exactly like a veteran.
Next to him, Fang Ziheng smiled and said nothing, quietly watching Wu Ershan change the reporters' opinion of him little by little.
In his previous life, after directing "Painted Skin 2", Wu Ershan set his sights on "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", which can be regarded as a leader in Chinese-language magic and fantasy-themed films.
Moreover, Wu Ershan also spent 3 billion to shoot the Conferred Gods trilogy.
If he doesn't have a few brushes, which film and television company would dare to invest!
Later, Su Lun, Bao Qiang, and Huang Bo also talked about the outline of the story of the movie.
The actors for these three movies have been selected, and they will start filming soon, so there is no need to worry about others snatching them up.
.........
Near noon, Hengyu Media invited the reporters who arrived to have lunch at the hotel, and the press conference ended at about two o'clock.
On the Internet, reporters have already publicized the ready-made situation of the press conference, causing a stir.
Countless science fiction fans, Ghost Blowing Lantern fans, and Dragon and Snake romance fans went berserk and swarmed to the Weibo topic.
"Damn it, am I dreaming? Hengyu Media is going to adapt Liu's "The Wandering Earth"?"
