Chapter 488 Shake hands with her
The landscape construction of the 18 bases of Pinghu Film and Television City has been completed, and the large-scale hotel group and office buildings are basically being decorated.
Each service center operates smoothly. In the past few months since its establishment, 27 film and television dramas have been produced here, and more than 40 projects are being filmed, with more being added gradually.
As projects become popular, a large number of extras gather, and the Actor Management Center is also put into use.
After returning to China, he followed Liu Yufei to visit. The greening and landscaping of the connections between the bases have been improving, and they are always striving to improve according to the best standards and strive to surpass them.
Gardens are built with money. If you have money, they are gardens. If you don’t have money, they are like cemeteries. The best standards in China are currently in Suzhou and Hangzhou, but the sophistication cannot be compared with what it will be twenty years later. It is not difficult to do better.
The key is to keep up with the aesthetic vision.
Su Changqing was also very worried. He had to personally review all the designs and put forward many suggestions for improvement.
His gardening creativity is fresh, and every time he has new ideas that surprise those gardening designers. Some ideas will undoubtedly benefit them a lot and save them many years of detours.
Liu Yufei said that the program rehearsals at the performance center have been perfected, the tourism center has been fully launched, and the route plans of major travel agencies have almost been approved. The first batch of tourists will be welcomed soon after Qingming Festival.
This is the biggest source of money for the film and television city. Su Changqing's principle is to proceed steadily. There cannot be more than two construction sites in the tourist area, otherwise it will appear chaotic. The supporting programs and performances must also be foolproof. Don't start selling tickets and collecting money if you are not ready.
You will be pointed at and scolded by tourists.
At the beginning of the business, in order to attract tourists, the film and television city will also cooperate with film and television stars filming here to carry out some paid interactive activities, which is also mutually beneficial and win-win.
For example, meet up with a tour group and say hello, or watch a show with everyone.
Liu Yufei said: "I will play when there are no stars, and I will risk everything to achieve good results."
These little gimmicks are just a piece of cake for actors, but they may have special commemorative value for tourists. Perhaps more than ten years later, when they think about it, they will still say: "I traveled to Jiangnan that year, saw Liu Yufei, and even shook hands with her."
"Route" has been released globally for more than a month, and the box office has been good. It is close to 800 million. It is not a dream to watch 1 billion.
Sometimes Su Changqing also thinks that if she goes into seclusion now, this will be a perfect ending.
He turned around and left, becoming a legend. When the history of film is written a few years later, there will definitely be a chapter about him that will make all subsequent filmmakers admire him.
If you don't want to be so pretentious, you should at least slow down, like Cameron, who only releases a work every few years, create some aesthetic distance, and stop chasing after it so hard.
However, he couldn't stop as if he was addicted to a game, shooting one movie after another, even more prolific than Director Zhang, and he took great pleasure in doing so.
As a reborn person, he prefers to prove his strong existence compared to being indifferent.
On February 1st, Su Changqing returned to Beijing to continue preparations for "The Shape of Water" and took the time to write the storyboard and storyboard plans.
Of course, it wasn't just the script. After returning from Bordeaux, Su Changqing increasingly felt that one thing was particularly important.
That is privacy. He is the most exposed person and the most private person.
Like to prove your strong existence does not mean you like to be watched. The two are contradictory and must be handled well.
Su Changqing asked Mu Mu and Liu Yufei to take advantage of their free time after the New Year to look for suitable properties in major domestic cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and buy as many properties as possible.
Not to mention Mu Mu, even Liu Yufei couldn't fully understand why she did this: "Is this necessary? Isn't it true that the An family has no fixed place to live and seems to be in constant fear all day long?"
Su Changqing believes that it is necessary. As long as you plan to settle in China in the future, living in one place for a long time will definitely be known to the outside world, and something may happen. Director Zhang's experience is a lesson.
The Hachiman family is very experienced in this regard. Of course the Shinto family has to remain secretive. Harumi basically lives in her own villa when she is on business in the country and does not have too much contact with the outside world.
Su Changqing also plans to do this. The cunning rabbit should have ten or even dozens of burrows. Besides, this is also combined with investment. The quality of domestic real estate is getting better and better, and prices are starting to rise. Investment is the best way to fight inflation.
This was of course an excuse given to Mu Mu and Liu Yufei. Su Changqing's main assets were already in real estate and high-quality companies, and he didn't care about this depreciation at all.
In any case, his decision must be obeyed, so Liu Yufei quickly established several companies in the name of the three parents and began to purchase high-value-added high-quality assets in all popular cities in the country, taking into account convenience and confidentiality.
According to Su Changqing's words: "The coverage must be sufficient. From now on, we will have our own home wherever we go. Since we can't live in hotels anymore, if we don't have a home, I will take you to live in the woods."
In fact, many big-name celebrities in China later did this. Although it was occasionally exposed, it was just the tip of the iceberg.
Liu Yufei teased Su Changqing: "If you are so cautious, you might as well open your own luxury hotel chain and make money at the same time."
This is a good idea and can be considered in the future. In the future, there will be too much money and nowhere to go, and the tourism industry will grow explosively. Once the film and television base hotel has experience in operation, of course it can be expanded into a chain.
Liu Yufei had a strong execution ability, and then she began to buy real estate across the country. The hotel chain was not yet in place, but the home chain was first.
As expected, "Route" was nominated for the main category of the Berlin Film Festival, and Su Changqing asked Theron's representative to attend the opening ceremony on February 7th.
However, he promised the organizing committee that he would attend the awards ceremony on the 19th and serve as the award guest.
In the past two years, Su Changqing has participated in the competition several times but did not attend the award ceremony. The organizers have learned well and confirmed early whether he will go to support it.
This is a mutually successful performance, and we can’t always stay away from the show.
In addition to working on the script, Su Changqing and Mu Mu also worked with Chen Jin and Zhou Lanhua on styling for several days.
Mu Mu's styling is relatively easy. Since it is set in the Wang Puppet area, military uniforms have ready-made standards, and daily clothing is nothing more than various styles of cheongsams and skirts, just like Zhou Xun's styling in "The Wind" later. It's up to you to make it look as good as you like.
How pretty.
Fashion in the 1930s and 1940s was not as diversified as it was later. The hairstyles of fashionable men and women in China at that time were no different from those in Paris and New York, and they were easier to style.
Mainly Su Changqing's fish-man image is a matter of success or failure.
The final result of the discussion was to design a cool set of close-fitting armor for the fishmen, which is like a set of tights, with special luster and patterns, mysterious and magical.
This idea is completely different from the original drama. The male protagonist in the original drama has scales on his body and is a creature different from humans.
The personal armor is a manufactured product, which proves that the male protagonist comes from a certain civilization.
The armor style was designed by Chen Jin, and Su Changqing made some suggestions based on many ideas from Marvel and DC. In short, it looks like the material is extraordinary, integrated with the body, smooth and conducive to movement in the water.
As for the swimming style, after two months of thinking about it, he felt that it was a bit silly no matter how he swam. The human body structure was not designed for aquatic life.
So simply give the propulsion function to the armor, so that as long as the fishman enters the water, it can move forward at high speed. Then all you need to do is design a few cool sliding movements.
February 9th was a good day. David Landau called and reported that the box office of "Route" exceeded 900 million. It will be released in one week and hopes to exceed 1 billion by then.
If "Route" can win at the Berlin Film Festival and the Oscars, it will definitely arrange a second round of screenings in the future, and it will only be a matter of time before it breaks one billion.
Theron called and said that she had finished attending the opening event of the film festival and would go back to Hollywood to continue filming.
At noon, Hachiman Harumi also called to report the good news.
