Liu Yifei, a Weibo patient, took a photo of Chen Mengxi who was cutting his nails: "The Legend of White Snake is really that bad?"

Chen Mengxitou didn't reply: "The main reason is that Yangzi is too arrogant. The newcomer just entered the circle and is hyping up some sincerity to make a movie... You really have to be sincere. After all, the special effects have not been completed last night, and it will be released in rush time!"

"How do you know?"

“…We made the special effects!”

Currently, the mainland has undertaken special effects, and the later special effects companies, Mengxi special effects account for the majority...

High-level, cheap, and most importantly, considerate service.

But no matter how high the level is, it will take time!

Special effects that can be completed in six months. If you have to shorten the cycle for three months, but you still refuse to increase the money, then it will be 50 cents...

"That's really costing 200 million?"

"I don't know, the special effects are not up to 20 million yuan anyway, and with the actor's pay, I originally estimated that 100 million yuan should be available, but Li Lianjie said that the scene he took on at a low pay was considered a friendship price, and it was estimated that it wasn't up to 10 million yuan... The total cost would be at most over 60 million!"

"Then they blew 200 million?"

"…The investment amount announced by the media press release??2.5 to 3.5 = the real investment amount, which is almost the industry rules. Don't you know?"

"How could I know..."

Liu Yifei was speechless...

Even if it is a drama made by Mengxi, although the bill is clear, advertising implants and brand sponsorship will not be written in the account...

Many things don't need to be announced to the public!

Cut your nails and Chen Mengxi Road: "In fact, "The Legend of the White Snake" is not easy to make a movie."

"Why?"

"It is a work of free love, opposing the right match, and the parents' orders, but in the end they have to bow to the rules and regulations, the ruler, minister, father and son. Two people who should have been together have to meet a series of harsh conditions to get so-called pardon and grace, and get a so-called happy ending. This is one of the worst things in Chinese culture."

"If you want to film love, you should be like Liang Zhu. Even if you reach the last breath of your life, you must defend love. At worst, it will be a lose-lose ending. Liang Zhu finally used romanticism to fight against the generals."

It makes sense, Liu Yifei nodded seriously...

Speaking of this, Chen Mengxi stood up: "I'll go out."

"What are you doing? Go fishing again?"

“…I’ll go to the movie bureau!”

...

Chen Mengxi did go to the Film Bureau.

On the one hand, several co-productions of Mengxi have opened up the market. The Film Bureau wants to ask him about his views on co-productions. On the other hand, he wants to stop the business of main theme tribute films...

Original time and space, "The Founding of the Party"... No, it should be said that after the "Xinhai Revolution" mode cannot be played, the main theme commercial films cannot be found...

Until the release of "Taking Tiger Mountain in Strategy" at the end of 2014, Bona found a main theme + commercial film model, and successively launched four blockbusters: "Operation Mekong", "Operation Red Sea", "Hero of Fire" and "Captain of China", and they all sold out.

Chen Mengxi cannot miss these four projects.

Let me first explain that the main theme commercial film and tribute film are not the same thing. The word "My Motherland and Me" and "Climber" are legitimate tribute films...

One of the nine ministries took the lead and found a film studio to discuss the subject matter and story, and then the studio was responsible for filming.

Main theme blockbusters, especially tribute films, aren’t something you can do just by wanting to!

"Ice and Snow Changjin Lake" was intended to be filmed in 11 years - at that time, the Bayi Film Studio produced a documentary "Ice and Blood Changjin Lake", and Feng Xiaogang publicly stated that he wanted to film...

But because of the international situation - in those years, China and the United States were friendly, and it was difficult to shoot a type of film that showed the resistance to U.S. aggression and aid Korea. Instead, "Chinese Widow" (Fenghuo Fangfei), "The Flowers of Golden Scale" and other films can be filmed!

To what extent?

This documentary has been banned and cannot find its resources on the Internet until May 2019 when the movie channel was released!

That's right, it's the movie channel again!

Six Princess!

This guy is really troublesome. Prime Minister Abe visited Pearl Harbor. On the same day, the Sixth Princess played "Pearl Harbor" and led the people of the whole country to revisit how Pearl Harbor sneaked into Pearl Harbor in the United States and brought the United States, who had wanted to stay out of the matter;

On the anniversary of the victims of the Nanjing Massacre, the sixth princess released the "Sunken Benzene" as appropriate;

The Sixth Princess treated everyone equally. When Pan Rong and the baby had the most fuss, they played "Detective Chinatown";

Scotland is in a referendum for independence, and the Sixth Princess is also very concerned, and directly broadcasts "Brave Heart"...

Bring it back.

Chen Mengxi is not trying to destroy the international situation. In the stage of Sino-US friendship, it is better not to shoot any films of resisting the United States and aiding Korea...

He means making several movies similar to "My Motherland and Me" and "My Hometown and Me"...

This thing also requires political endorsement!

...

The Film Bureau is located in Xuanwumen, which is easy to find.

Chen Mengxi knocked on the door of Tong Bureau’s office and said his purpose: “I am going to shoot a five directors of “My Motherland and Me” and intercept five clips, namely Jianguo, atomic bomb explosion, Hello Xiaoping, return, Olympics…”

Tong Gang was very interested in Chen Mengxi's proposal.

Chen Mengxi: "I only require that the schedule of the movie is National Day, and there should be no so much intervention..."

“Intervention?”

"It's...we shoot it ourselves, don't arrange other directors for us, such as Brother Chen Kai or something..."

"Okay, you guys take the photo yourself." Tong Gang nodded, Zhang Hongsen next to him: "Do you want to join forces with China Film?"

"…I made this suggestion to Dong Han, and he seemed to be more interested in the word "jian"..."

Zhang Hongsen sighed: "From the box office of "The Revolution of 1911", this method is not advisable!"

"…Okay, we have approved it, you can shoot..."

Chen Mengxi nodded, sat down, and prepared to talk about the co-production.

Zhang Hongsen poured him a glass of water and asked in a low voice: "Is the story of "The Legend of the White Snake" really caused by light?"

Chen Mengxi looked at Deputy Director Zhang helplessly: "Leader, why are you so gossipy?"

"Let me tell me, I've been discussing it on Weibo recently..."

"It's almost the same," Chen Mengxi continued, thinking about it, "The number of screens is still too small now. If you can't squeeze in two movies in one schedule... It's enough to wait until the number of screens is 20,000 yuan!"

"I really couldn't imagine it!"

Zhang Hongsen sighed a little: "I met Wang Changtian and Yu Dong at the Shanghai Film Festival, and the relationship between them seems to be very good!"

Chen Mengxi smiled: "The truth of life is this: I dare to scold the government, the world, and the gods; I destroy Buddha and slander the ancestors, I look down on the world, but I dare not scold the neighbors upstairs who are decorating every weekend, but instead, I must be very friendly..."

Tong Gang gave a thumbs up: "Incisive!"

"Leader, let's talk about co-production!"

"Okay." Tong Gang nodded: "What do you think is the purpose of a co-production film?"

"The first step is to learn advanced technology and production concepts, and the second step is to reverse output culture!"

Zhang Hongsen looked at Tong Gang and smiled and said, "Now there are many comrades who have sued you, saying that you are a comprador and help the Americans make money from us, and they are ambitions!"

“…No way?”

Chen Mengxi was stunned...

Can this be mentioned?

"Shaw Beach, Giant Crocodile Storm, and Source Code, are all co-productions, and they all make money..."
Chapter completed!
