Chapter 359, All-in "Let the Bullets Fly"
After the movie schedule ended, what I gained has become clear.
It’s great to be able to achieve this achievement now.
As a fledgling director, this is already the limit.
Jiang Wen and Jiang Chenggang didn't say anything about Li Yun's act of giving away the award.
Basically, after making a movie, anyone who thinks they have some level of talent will submit an award, but whether they can win an award or even be nominated is a very small possibility. Very small Of course, from Jiang Wen's point of view, Li Yun's film quality is good.
But the awards may be compared with the films produced in the past two or even three years. Every generation has its own talents.
You are one of the talents of this generation.
However, Jiang Wen and Jiang Chenggang didn't expect much from the award.
After all, this thing is too slim. Even "Crazy Stone", which had the same box office trend at the time, only got one nomination.
That’s already a pretty good response. “Foreign broadcast rights? Sure! Of course.”
The profitability of a movie is not yet completely over.
Foreign introduction.
Just like "Batman", after making money locally, it also makes money abroad.
Of course, whether or not you can make money from it is another matter, but at least someone has bought the copyright to introduce it, which is always a good thing.
now.
The success of "The Crucible" has been finalized.
Economic income, fame, and this resume can be used to gather the main actors of "Let the Bullets Fly".
After the completion of "The Crucible", the project of "Let the Bullets Fly" was immediately launched. The investment amount was all the profits from "The Crucible" thrown into it. Even a lot of money had to be invested.
"Open! Heroic and grand!"
At this time, Jiang Wen couldn't help but give Li Yun a thumbs up. "You may not be very old, but you are very ambitious."
Li Yun was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
The thing about money.
Compared to curing diseases.
It is more important to cure the disease.
And the prescription is "Let the Bullets Fly".
The investment is indeed not small. Even if Grandpa Lu has secured the team of the Bayi Factory, using their team is not in vain, it also costs money.
Li Yun felt that his disease was the most expensive disease in the world.
Of course, this disease can also make money.
All of a sudden, the box office, copyright, and all the other revenues came in, all of a sudden they went out again, without a penny left.
extreme--
Few people are so extreme in investing in movies . Many investors who wanted to negotiate with Li Yun stopped and turned around and ran away. This investment habit is really too extreme.
Generally speaking, if one out of ten movies can make a profit, then it is a profit.
I have never seen a filmmaker who goes all in. After all, if you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet.
"I'll go with 10 million."
Jiang Wen directly took out 10 million to invest, which was most of his wealth.
"Thank you.": "It's okay, it's a collaboration between the two of us. You are the director and I am the assistant director. We each have our own roles. It would be inappropriate if I don't contribute some money." Jiang Wen smiled.
He is not a person who regards money as dirt.
But Jiang Wen still has a bit of the temperament of a romantic writer.
He recognized Li Yun's talent.
So he followed the film investment this time.
Also following him were Liu Qianqian and Gao Yuanyuan, which made Jiang Wen regret that he was not more handsome.
On this point, he was very stubborn and believed that Li Yun used the beauty trap to make these two beauties in the circle obey his orders. At this time, after the ending of "The Crucible" was completed.
Zhuo Wei also contacted Li Yun, who even received a lot of film contracts after his guest appearance in "The Crucible".
He thinks being an actor is interesting, but he is not interested in the entertainment industry.
He has a better place for himself.
Snooping in dark corners.
Zhuo Wei's talent and work, or rather, his hobby, is to pry into darker secrets in dark corners. If it is too dark, he will choose to expose it - just like the prototype of "The Crucible" this time, he has already written the manuscript.
About another place, a place where the same thing as "The Crucible" is actually happening at this moment.
Liu Ping is a warrior who exposes the darkness, but there are still many more places in this world that have not been exposed.
Movie.
It can change people.
"The Crucible" changed the once profit-driven entertainment reporter Zhuo Wei.
To be honest, Zhuo Wei was very rich in his previous life. After all, he became the "King of Paparazzi" and he must have a lot of dirty secrets about the bigwigs in the circle.
These are all hard-earned money. And "The Crucible" changed him. He is still an entertainment reporter, but occasionally, he will promote and discover his professional highlights.
Occasionally, be a respected journalist rather than a sensory entertainment reporter.
“How is it? Do you feel comfortable and refreshed? When you know that your work has changed the trajectory of a person’s life, you feel that kind of excitement and happiness from the bottom of your heart.”
The 'director' next to him whispered in Li Yun's ear: Changing a person's life rules makes people feel excited?
To be honest, that's right.
It is really exciting. That incomparable, exciting feeling. Changing a person's life is really exciting.
Something to be excited about. "Honestly, I am excited."
"Then you seem to have become more like me." The director said with a chuckle.
“I am not like anyone else, I am like myself.”
Li Yun smiled with his eyes narrowed.
The 'director' next to him felt a little regretful. He really couldn't take these personalities lightly, as they would set traps for him if he wasn't careful.
Always thinking about influencing myself in inexplicable places.
But my mind now is not so easily influenced.
"Just be yourself." The superstar next to him doesn't have as many crooked thoughts as the director's personality.
His character traits are more full of selflessness and kindness.
But this kind of personality can also have a subtle influence.
It is by no means something that can be taken lightly.
In fact, the attitudes of all parties towards Li Yun’s new movie are somewhat vague.
Some people think that Li Yun’s step is a bit too big.
From small to medium investments.
This should be a gradual process.
According to what people around say.
This wave should be more stable.
Here comes another movie of the same magnitude as The Crucible.
Instead of directly challenging the medium and large-scale ones.
Still different themes.
The themes of "Let the Bullets Fly" and "The Crucible" are completely unrelated.
From the background of the subject matter.
Then to the presentation of its theme.
It has nothing to do with it.
It crosses themes from the very beginning.
If I have to say, this is extremely courageous.
Quite bold.
Even Zhang Da Huzi called about this.
Xiao Li, be steady.
Although he is not a director in the film industry.
But I also know that the film market is depressed now.
I was beaten so badly by Hollywood that I was at a loss.
In this case, the best thing to do is to explore familiar topics and invest in appropriate amounts.
As for the current film industry.
A total budget of around 80 million is considered a large investment.
The current budget for Let the Bullets Fly is around 50 million.
It is a substantial investment of considerable size.
In this era where everyone is seeking stability.
Li Yun's strategy seems a bit too radical.
It's like a second-generation rich man who has obtained a large amount of property.
And then the feeling of being eager to spend it.
There is always something that is not yours and should not be yours.
The feeling of being a second-generation rich man who earns money beyond your imagination.
Liu Lili even called to see this.
My daughter follows you.
Don't mess around.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Of course don't mess with my daughter.
Li Yun always felt that the second sentence was the key point.
It’s not done yet. It’s not done yet.
Of course, she also analyzed from the perspective of her predecessors.
Given Li Yun’s current situation, it would be best for him to act like a melting pot and develop small and medium-sized investments to gain big returns.
This is a market that Hollywood movies have not occupied, or a market that is unlikely to be touched in the future.
Our big investments are not for the low-end.
If you stick to this market.
That's not a bad idea.
You, Li Yun, also want a small investment and a big return.
But my own personalities require things that require big investments and big returns.
And something Liu Lili said was not quite right.
If we don't forge ahead, resources will become less and less one day.
It is not enough to fulfill my ambition.
Not enough to complete my quest.
"This guy is a bit stubborn and wants to explore the areas of Zhongda Investment."
Liu Lili even felt a little headache.
How come this child just doesn't listen?
If you don't listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer the consequences.
No, I'm not an old man either, I'm still young.
At this time Liu Lili.
It's indeed a bit of a headache.
My daughter will have to follow him for the next three years.
His path is related to his daughter's future.
But up to this point, Liu Lili could still acknowledge Li Yun's talent, given his natural ability.
If it were in Hollywood.
It should be able to reach a second-rate level.
In the end, it may not be impossible for him to reach Li Lianjie's level.
In addition, if you write and direct it yourself.
It also has its own advantages.
It's different from acknowledging Li Yun's talent.
This is also the most unpleasant.
It’s probably Wang Chen, although this time the movie "The Crucible" did not directly affect him.
But the reputation of "The Crucible" is like a thorn in the side.
It pierced his heart.
In terms of scores and reputation, it is actually better than the movies that we have vigorously introduced and are optimistic about.
This made him very unhappy.
Seeing a Chinese film perform well is more painful than seeing its own films fail.
"He was just lucky this time, but his good luck won't last forever."
In fact, there are some interests involved.
Only when foreign-language films surpass the performance of Chinese-language films can he gain more power within Chinese film industry, have more resources, and eventually become the president. Although Li Yun did not feel any great sense of crisis with "The Crucible" this time.
But there is still an unhappy feeling. Similarly, although Liu Lili also thinks that Li Yun’s talent is worthy of appreciation, she does not feel that this poses any threat to the Hollywood film market.
All we can say is that he found a different way to go.
But this track is just a small path after all.
Compared with the broad road, it is indeed a bit shabby. This is the confidence brought by the overwhelming strength . However, Wang Chen's mind is not that big, he is a narrow-minded man.
This time, he remembered Li Yun.
If it is possible to trip him up, he will do it without hesitation. However, that kind of trip is not directed at the opponent, but at someone he doesn't like.
Gao Yuanyuan and Liu Qianqian also wanted to participate in "Let the Bullets Fly" at the beginning.
But... not suitable.
After reading the roles, they both refused in unison.
Even Liu Qianqian refused.
She thought the script was novel.
Very unique, but there is no role suitable for her.
What she needs is a 'heroine', a strong heroine, and Let the Bullets Fly is full of the romance that men feel.
In fact, Li Yun also feels that there are no suitable roles for Liu Qianqian and Gao Yuanyuan in "Let the Bullets Fly".
Li Yun himself also prefers to let them act in other TV series.
"I don't want to be a vase."
"Me too!"
The two girls were unwilling to give in to each other, so one chose a legal drama and played a female lawyer, and the other chose an urban drama about a white-collar female president.
Gao Yuanyuan challenges "Lawyer", which seems to be a challenge to the lawyer in "The Crucible".
Liu Qianqian chose a female president.
In various senses, the same selection framework In fact, Li Yun also feels that if you want to develop in the circle, you don’t have to be a vase.
Li Yun was also happy from the bottom of her heart about their choice . After all.
When everyone is working towards the same goal, that emotion, that feeling is greater than a simple relationship between two people.
It will be deeper.
At least, that's what Li Yun thought.
In the evening, Li Yun finally had some time to relax from his busy schedule. Next, he would head to the set of "Let the Bullets Fly".
Now, take a walk in the garden after the rain with Liu Qianqian.
It's quite comfortable too.
"My acting skills still have a lot of room for improvement," Liu Qianqian said, holding her chin up, "I know this."
Liu Xixi's eyes were very clear at this time. She was not unaware of her own problems with the success of "The Crucible".
Her biggest problem, perhaps, is her stiff acting skills. Even though she has an unparalleled sense of involvement and can even empathize with the character.
But that’s not enough.
At least, it was not enough to perform on the same stage with Li Yun. Liu Qianqian understood this point. But she knew what she wanted.
Following Li Yun, it seems that I can find the joy and truth of being an actor. "Brother Li, Brother Li, you know, when I was browsing the forum, I saw someone leave me a message. She said that she is also a student in a special school. She is born dumb and seems to have mental problems. She has low self-esteem. Even if she was molested, she dare not say it because in the eyes of others, she is a psychopath. But after watching the movie, she got the courage."
“There are lawyers, teachers, and students who feel the power of film.”
"It's great that movies can change a person!"
Liu Qianqian's face also sparkled when she spoke.
Looks... very tempting.
Li Yun thinks.
Now she is more worthy of the title of "celestial being".
