Zhao Guangming really didn't expect that Li Yi would have inspiration so quickly and even write the story script.
Looking at the four characters "Born in the Sky" on the cover, Zhao Guangming was quite looking forward to it.
But when he read the script, he frowned.
The expectation turned into helplessness and a wry smile.
Of course, I just felt that I was being tricked, or that I dug a hole for myself and buried myself in it.
Because this script, first of all, requires a large investment, this is not a big problem. For Zhao Guangming, it is not a problem for Li Yi.
If he wants to regroup and tidy up the legacy of the main theme film, then a blockbuster movie is definitely the best choice.
But the content involved in this film really gave him a headache.
Because this video involves scientific researchers who study mushroom eggs and some relatively sensitive people.
This is definitely not allowed in the field of film and scientific research.
"You are really going to cause trouble for me." Zhao Guangming looked at Li Yi helplessly.
Li Yi, on the other hand, crossed his legs and looked lazy.
"No, I gave you the script. If you can't film it, you can't blame me." Li Yi was confident.
There are so many films that he can make, but he doesn't necessarily have to make this book.
However, Li Yi believes that Zhao Guangming will definitely be tempted, because although the content involved in this book is limited and sensitive, this movie can be said to fill a gap in the field of Chinese feature films to some extent, because this kind of subject matter
It's not that there aren't any videos, but there really isn't anything that can be used.
Of course, the main theme is the absolute main theme. To sum up, the film eulogizes the great achievements of the high-tech defense industry in the preparation and experimental base.
However, the story does not focus on describing the technical process of developing mushrooms, but rather shows the merit, wisdom and hard work of the people. It can be said that it is definitely the main theme of the main theme.
If Li Yi, Fanhai Film and Television, and Starlight Film and Television were allowed to make this kind of movie on their own, it would definitely not work. Not only would it be a matter of censorship, but more importantly, some of the content involved would require official help.
Because the more this type of theme film is, the higher the requirements for the details of the film.
You can't make things up out of thin air, because they all have prototypes.
You can use pseudonyms, you can use Chunqiu calligraphy, but you can't just think it is what you want it to be, you must refer to the truth.
Although these people have been around for so many years, even though Li Yi is a big and famous director, if he wants to get help in this area, it is impossible to do it without Huaying's help.
Zhao Guangming did not hesitate for too long.
Suddenly he gritted his teeth and said, "Then shoot!"
Li Yi immediately laughed.
He knew that Zhao Guangming would definitely not reject this film.
In fact, the movie "Survival of the World" is really good. In my memory, although after the movie was released, I lost money and paid it to my grandma's house.
But the reputation is really good, with a public rating of 9.4.
It is the main theme movie with the highest score, yes, even higher than "Garlands Under the Mountain".
Of course, the original movie is in another world and was adapted from the script "Ma Lancao" which won the "Film Literature Award".
It was written by two writers with military backgrounds in China and a research base.
Of course, it is conceivable that this film would have lost money when it was released in that era. At that time, the main theme movies, no, let alone the main theme movies, other movies were also flopped.
Basically, it can be said that at that time, the domestic film market had not yet begun to take shape.
The total box office for the whole year was less than 1 billion Chinese dollars.
How high can you expect a single movie to be at the box office? That is definitely unrealistic, and the reputation of the main theme movies of that era was really not good.
In fact, at this time
In fact, Li Yi has no idea whether it can be a big hit, but he will definitely not lose money, especially since the director is Li Yi.
It’s not that he thinks highly of himself, but his name is hanging in front of a movie. This movie is not guaranteed to make a profit, but at least it will definitely have no problem maintaining its capital.
Moreover, there is also the IP of "That Year of the Rabbit" as the basic line, so there is really no need to worry about the promotion.
Of course, it was actually not that easy to make this movie.
It is different from "Changjin Lake" and "Wreath Under the Mountain".
Although "Changjin Lake" is also based on a real battle, the Seventh Company interspersed in it is actually fictional. Even if there is a prototype, it can be said that it has been completely changed.
Overall, "Changjin Lake" actually borrows the background of the battle.
Although "Garland Under the Mountain" appears to be more realistic than "Changjin Lake", in fact, it is completely different from the prototype character.
After all, there are so many people participating in a battle, and the movie is just based on a company at the grassroots level.
But "The World Comes Out" is different.
Although the characters in it all use pseudonyms, they must have prototypes.
Moreover, the character cannot be too different from the prototype character.
However, in terms of actors, Li Yi actually already had ideas after writing the script.
For example, for the role of Lu Guangda in it, he directly selected Lin Yunbin to play the role. Zhao Guangming naturally would not point out this aspect, because although China Film Association fully supports it, it is still Li Yi's movie.
Li Yi's movies have never had the habit of letting people point fingers in this regard.
He didn't want Li Yi to give up his job.
For the role of general, Chen Wen was the perfect choice.
In fact, it is not impossible for the two roles to be interchanged. It depends on what they think at that time.
In fact, these are not the most important. The most important thing is that although Li Yi has the original movie as a reference, it is a different world after all, and many lines in the script need to be modified.
And there is another point. There are many professors and veterans in the film. Their living habits, as well as their demeanor, movements, and speech methods, etc., all need to be compared with the original version.
This definitely needs to be reported to Guangming and professionals to solve it.
Not only that, the filming location of this movie is to be shot in the Gobi Desert, so you must apply and get permission.
Although decades have passed, this sensitive place is still sensitive, and to some extent, it is even more sensitive than in the past.
These are not problems that Li Yi can solve, they all require Zhao Guangming's leadership.
Of course, the biggest difficulty in shooting the movie "The World" is actually the scene in the Gobi Desert, because it requires too many extras. Except for the Dunhuang scene, most of the other scenes can be shot in the studio.
.
Now that Zhao Guangming has agreed, the preparations for the movie will have to be put on the agenda, and these issues need to be resolved one by one.
