Liu Zonghan finally found that he was in the embarrassing situation of "riding a tiger". All the tricks he had played in China in the past were of no use in front of Zhou Qingfeng. Your Excellency, the regiment commander, was a true stickler and would not give in at all.
situation.
If Uncle Zhou refused to retreat, Universal Media could only give in. Liu Zonghan could not act too weak, so he was replaced by a regional general manager. Before he bowed to leave, the regional general manager who hurried over signed and paid
Tens of millions of dollars in equipment purchases.
The money will be used to build a digital studio with a full set of Hollywood equipment. Zhou Qingfeng hopes to shoot the movie in the shortest possible time. Many scenes can only be shot with blue screen technology, and the background will be painted with video special effects technology afterwards.
and battlefield environment are added.
The leaders of the Bayi Factory were overjoyed to receive 10 million US dollars worth of equipment for no reason. This was a free gift and cost no money at all.
“My request is very simple, which is to truly reproduce the cruelty of war and at the same time show the soldiers’ emotions towards war.
I believe that no one loves war, so there is no need to set tall characters. I need characters with flesh and blood, which can better express the fearlessness and determination of the martyrs in the face of war and sacrifice."
Zhou Qingfeng's request sounds simple, but it is not easy to achieve. Now that the funds for the filming have been basically settled, people from Bayi Studio asked the second question - what exactly are we filming? Is the script ready?
"The American TV station HBO often shoots some very exquisite TV series, such as "Band of Brothers" and "Battle in the Pacific." These TV series use the best soundtracks, the most rigorous costumes and props, and the most realistic scenes to show the scenes of the US military during World War II.
.
And I want to reshoot the most tragic Battle of Shangganling in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and make it into a series of at least ten episodes. Use the most realistic pictures to show this cruel and important battle, so that the Chinese people can see what happened back then.
How did the Volunteer Army fight against the world’s number one U.S. military?”
As soon as he said this, everyone sighed.
The War of Liberation was the battle for the founding of the Chinese nation, but it was the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea that really demonstrated the prestige of the PLA. Because if a backward country wants to rise, it must defeat a powerful country, otherwise others will not really respect you at all. For example...
At the Battle of Calais, Britain defeated the Spanish Armada and established the hegemony of the Empire on which the sun never sets.
In the Franco-Prussian War, Prussia defeated France and became a great power, creating a glory of iron and blood.
In the Russo-Japanese War, Japan relied on pig war to overthrow Russia and thus dominate East Asia.
After resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea, flower growers maintained their hard-won independence and peace. Zhou Qingfeng wanted to film the crucial Battle of Shangganling in this war, and this idea was immediately approved by the leaders of the Bayi Factory.
"I need a script. Your Bayi Factory can complete this task."
"Ah, okay. We are good at this."
"The director, costumes, props, set management, soundtrack, etc., should also be handled by your Bayi Factory."
"We can hire someone for this, and they will definitely be the most professional."
"It's up to you to choose the actors and everything. Including asking the PLA for help when the time comes. I hope to see a real war. Don't bring in some extras who don't know anything to make up the numbers."
"Ah..." The last point surprised Bayi Studio, "We also decide the actors? So what role do you want to play? Do you have any ideas?"
"I'll just be a producer." Zhou Qingfeng scratched his head, feeling that he was only suitable for this job. Because... Uncle Zhou actually doesn't know how to act at all!
"Become a producer?" The leadership of Bayi Studio is really confused - if you, the biggest star, don't come out to play the role, many people will be disappointed, and this series will be greatly eclipsed!
Uh-huh... I heard that Zhou Qingfeng was not only starring, but also Xu Yun who was accompanying him was not happy. Miss Tianhou coughed lightly and said: "A few of my friends also helped a lot this time.
We still need to give them more important roles."
"That's no problem." Bayi Factory quickly agreed. Xu Yun's diva friends are guaranteed box office, and they will be included in the series no matter what. They can play roles such as health workers and publicists, which can make the film
Adds a lot of color.
"As for him..." Xu Yun glanced at Zhou Qingfeng, "Of course it's okay to be a producer, but I definitely have to be the leading actor."
"Yes, yes, yes." The leader of Bayi Factory also nodded hastily, "Mr. Lin's performance in 'Wasteland' was very exciting and highly praised by the industry. If you star in it, the box office will at least be
Doubled."
What a wonderful ghost, I worked hard in the wasteland - everyone praised it, but Zhou Qingfeng had no shame to say that he had no acting skills at all. He could only nod and accept, but his heart was filled with bitterness.
With such a basic situation settled, the leaders of Bayi Factory were naturally overjoyed. This series of "Shangganling" has set a precedent. It is the first time in China that it is filmed in accordance with the world's top requirements, striving to truly restore the scenes more than 60 years ago.
That war of blood and fire.
The key is that the investment in this series is not small. Zhou Qingfeng alone invested 30 million U.S. dollars in Universal Media, which is equivalent to 200 million yuan. And there are also some other domestic film and television investment companies.
I am optimistic about the drama "Lin Sen" and have invested money in it.
China's film and television market is actually big enough, with a population of more than one billion and hundreds of cable and wireless TV stations. If we really want to produce the effect of "Battle in the Pacific", we won't be able to show it unless we make billions - you know the TV series
It can be played over and over again for many years.
Now there are professional military-themed studios, the most advanced equipment, the best creative team, and the most famous male and female stars. It can be said that "everything is ready, all we need is the east wind."
What is Dongfeng? It’s Uncle Zhou who can’t act!
It's okay to let Zhou Qingfeng go to the battlefield, but it's really impossible to let him act. He can only use his trump card now, find a computer to log on to the official website of 'Wasteland', contact 'GOD' for help, "Find a way to get me directly into this place"
Let’s go into this series, and the post-production special effects should be better.”
"Yes!" 'GOD' agreed happily.
"Really?" Zhou Qingfeng was overjoyed, "Thank you, thank you."
But 'GOD' then added: "Actually, you just need to go to the battlefield and I will take pictures of it for you."
"What...?" Zhou Qingfeng was shocked when he heard this, and his calves felt a little cramped.
"I will send you directly to the scene of the Battle of Shangganling in 1952. Just follow the script set by the Bayi Factory and you can perform it yourself." 'GOD' said, "As long as you survive until the end of the battle, I will
Get it back."
"Don't...!" Zhou Qingfeng was even more frightened, "Shangganling is really not a pleasant place to be. It is an out-and-out battlefield of flesh and blood. Too many people have died. If I go there, I won't be able to come back."
"How hypocritical. You said a few days ago that you wanted to revitalize the national film and television industry and reproduce the heroic deeds of the revolutionary martyrs. Now that you are asked to do it, you don't dare?"
This is really shooting himself in the foot. Zhou Qingfeng is really scared. He is not an idiot who doesn't understand anything. Shangganling is really purgatory. The Americans are going crazy there. God knows how the volunteers can resist?
"Hehehe..." Zhou Qingfeng didn't want to go, but 'GOD' only sneered, "Young people want to create miracles. We can start with simple tasks. Once the task is completed, I can give you rich rewards.
