Why Wu Jianye chose "Peacock Princess", which is not so famous in later generations, as his first movie? It was because after participating in the filming of "Peacock Princess", he could get in touch with Shanghai Art Film Production
Film studio!
In the era when Wu Jianye was reborn, "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" came out and was called the rise of Chinese comics. However, everyone has forgotten that in the 1960s, 70s, 80s and 80s, Chinese cartoons
It's no worse than Hollywood, and it's even harder to compare to RB!
Even Hayao Miyazaki, known as the master of RB animation, is a die-hard fan of Shanghai Animation Film Studio.
"Ma Liang" in 1955, "Havoc in Heaven" in 1964, "Nezha Hao Hai" in 1979, "Three Monks" just completed this year, and "The Destiny" which only had 5 episodes when it was broadcast in 1984.
"Black Cat Sheriff", and the 1986 "Calabash Brothers" that everyone played badly...
There are many more classics. If I could finish counting them, they would probably be numbered.
Unfortunately, with the reform and opening up, the commodity economy took over, and the domestic animation industry suddenly collapsed. This gave RB and Hollywood a chance to catch up.
Wu Jianye knew that a complete entertainment kingdom would be impossible without the support of animation. You can get a glimpse of it by looking at the development of Hollywood and Disney in later generations.
The perfect combination of animation and live-action movies is their development route. Many classic Chinese stories were later put on the screen by Hollywood companies and made into animations, and then brought to China to capture the feelings of the Chinese people. Wu Jianye
I was very helpless at the time.
He always thought that if domestic animated films could continue to flourish, perhaps Chinese animated films would be more likely to go global before live-action films.
"Director Su, Director Xing, hello, I am a loyal audience of your company. I have watched "Ma Liang", "Havoc in Heaven", and "Nezha Hao Hai" so many times!" Wu Jian
Ye said excitedly.
Su Fei smiled reservedly, they had seen this kind of situation too many times, not to mention domestic people, even their factory had hosted many foreign friends to visit.
However, Su Fei and Xing Rong did not doubt what Wu Jianye said. After all, the first script Wu Jianye wrote included puppet animation. People who are not interested in animation would not have thought of it.
"Xiao Wu is so polite. They were all made by the seniors in the factory!"
Xing Rong also smiled and said: "Xiao Wu is young and promising. It is very commendable that he can come up with such an excellent script!"
Wu Jianye laughed and said: "This is what I had after watching "Ma Liang"!"
The tone set by the two sides was very good at the beginning, and the rest of the conversation was naturally very pleasant. Wu Jianye took out the drawing paper about the puppet animation that would be used in the movie, which made Su even more interested.
Fei and Xing Rong were satisfied. They were also very satisfied with the images of the evil eagle and dragon designed by Wu Jianye, which saved them a lot of effort.
After this chat, it was already noon. Zhu Jinming looked at the time and suggested that everyone go to the canteen of Yanying Factory to have a meal together and chat while eating.
Su Fei and Xing Rong naturally had no objection to this, and then they called Chen Zhenghong, who was in charge of puppet animation guidance, and the five of them came to the canteen of Yanying Factory together.
It is now lunch time, and there are naturally a lot of people eating. Everyone is slightly startled when they see Zhu Jinming and others. They all know that Zhu Jinming will soon go to Yundian to shoot a mythical movie. The current traffic
Although it is inconvenient, everyone still knows Su Fei, Xing Rong and Chen Zhenghong.
Wu Jianye mixed in among them made everyone a little curious. No one knew who this young man was.
As a result, people began to whisper about Wu Jianye's identity. Some people who knew about Wu Jianye's identity attracted many people's attention.
No one thought that such a young man could actually write the script "The Peacock Princess". It is said that when the factory just got the script, they specially approached Bai Hua and hoped that he could give some opinions. However, after Bai Hua read it
, and lamented that I had once had the idea to write a story like this, but now it was written by a young man, and it was so excellent.
It was because of Bai Hua's attitude that Yan Film Studio truly made up its mind to produce this movie.
Moreover, this young man is now the leading actor in this movie. Coupled with his status as a screenwriter, according to the temperament of his own factory director, such a young man must find a way to stay in the factory, which means that from now on everyone will
Colleague!
Some actresses gathered together and pointed at Wu Jianye and muttered that everyone liked the handsome guy.
The male actors are a little unhappy. Everyone knows that Yanying Studio is short of male actors. If Wu Jianye can really be assigned to Yanying Studio after graduation, he will definitely get a lot of acting opportunities.
of.
There are only so many opportunities. Some people get them, and some people lose them.
Today's actors don't have the idea of becoming popular. Whether they are leading actors or supporting actors, they all get the same salary, but being able to be the leading actor is an honor, and this is what everyone values.
"Xiao Wu, I see that your painting skills are very good. Have you ever thought about where you will go after graduation?" Through conversation, Su Fei discovered that Wu Jianye is indeed a talent. He can write, act, draw, and...
If you can direct, they, the American Film Studio, also need such talents, so they started to recruit them.
"Sophie, you're being unreasonable. The movie hasn't even started shooting yet, and you're trying to poach our Yan Film Studio?" Zhu Jinming said dissatisfiedly.
"Lao Zhu, you can't say that, Xiao Wu is still a student, why are we poaching!" Su Fei said without giving in.
Zhu Jinming's expression was stagnant, and then he said forcefully: "Who said he is just a student? Let me tell you, our factory director has already taken a liking to Xiao Wu, and is waiting for him to apply to the superiors after he graduates to keep him with us.
Yanying Factory, aren’t you poaching, what are you?”
Su Fei calmly said: "You can apply, but we can't. Let me tell you, I will tell the factory director about this when I get back!"
The scene that was calm and drizzly just now suddenly turned into lightning and thunder.
"Okay, you two, don't argue here. Xiao Wu himself hasn't expressed his position yet!" Xing Rong acted as a peacemaker.
"Xiao Wu, tell me, do you want to come to our Yanying Factory or the Meiying Factory?" Zhu Jinming asked immediately.
Wu Jianye naturally wanted to stay at Yanying Factory. It was true that he was interested in animation, but the decline of Humei Factory was faster than that of Yanying Factory, and there was also a lack of exposure there.
It's not good for your own plans.
"I obey the organization's arrangements!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.
"snort!"
"snort!"
Obviously, neither Zhu Jinming nor Su Fei were satisfied with Wu Jianye's answer, but they also knew that this kind of matter was not something they or Wu Jianye could decide.
