The outside world's main theme movies have suddenly been ignored by the market. Well, actually it is not sudden. In fact, this trend has already been there as early as the first half of the year.
For this reason, it has also cast a shadow on many main theme movies being filmed.
Many theme-themed movies that were originally planned for development had to be temporarily shelved.
In fact, it's not that the main theme movies during this period were all that bad, but it was because the audience was fooled for too long and the accumulated emotions burst out.
It's time to start a counterattack.
In fact, it is somewhat similar to the early golden age of Hong Kong movies.
In those days, Hong Kong films were shot at a very fast pace, and once a genre of film became popular, countless similar films would immediately appear.
This is obviously a case of solidifying and fishing.
But everyone understands it, but there is no way the benefits can move people's hearts.
Other companies can just make other types of movies and no longer invest in main theme movies. However, for China Film, the cold reception of main theme movies is definitely not what they want to see.
Especially as a film and television group with the prefix Guo, China Film Group naturally has its own tasks.
So this also made Zhao Guangming pay more and more attention to Li Yi's "The World".
During this time, I frequently called Li Yi to inquire about the filming situation.
Even though Li Yi told Zhao Guangming that a movie could not change the current situation, Zhao Guangming didn't care at all. According to him, the market needs movies with the main theme like "The World" to cheer up.
We also need to let the outside world see that it’s not the main theme movies that are no longer good, but the people who make them.
He hopes that "Surprise" can be like the name of the movie, and it will be released in this situation that is extremely unfavorable for the main theme movie!
In fact, in the past, there was another way to make movies with the main theme, and that was to book the venue.
But in fact, today, as the market gradually matures, it is extremely difficult to book a large-scale venue.
Because there are so many main theme movies, why do you enjoy such treatment?
So, to put it bluntly, you need to be strong yourself when it comes to blacksmithing. Other off-field factors require that you be strong yourself.
Of course, if the main theme movie is completed, the profits and awards will definitely be abundant, and the rewards will be greater than those of other movies.
Again, the premise is that the movie must be good enough!
Although Li Yi no longer cares so much about awards, but since the movie has been filmed, why not get an award if he can?
Time flies, "Survival of the World" does not have special requirements for climate like other movies.
So the shooting was not interrupted, and everything went smoothly this time.
No, it doesn't mean that there are no scenes that don't require special weather, such as rain scenes.
But generally speaking, rain scenes deliberately produce artificial rainfall.
However, if it happens to rain, it will be fine.
For example, there is a scene that can be called the climax, which takes place in the rain.
In this scene, Li Yi had already decided to use a sprinkler truck, but unexpectedly, the weather was kind and it suddenly started raining.
This scene was actually shown in "That Year of the Rabbit", where the experts from Big Brother left after burning the drawings.
Of course the focus is after Big Brother leaves.
In fact, in this scene in the original version, the actor took a stick to put out the fire on a rainy day, but this was obviously not a good choice.
As we all know, putting out fires with sticks?
The key point is that it is a drawing. If it is burned by fire, exposed to rain, or poked with a stick, aren't you afraid that it will be damaged?
And judging from the way the movie is presented, it's obvious that the emotions of being poked with a stick are not quite there.
Therefore, changes must be made, and not only must be changed, because in Li Yi’s opinion, this scene should have been a very outstanding scene, but I don’t know what happened in the original version.
That's what I thought, but the result was a bit bland.
What is a movie?
It can be said that in a good movie, every shot is not useless, and such a brilliant scene, such a brilliant flash, and a sensational scene, of course must be shot well and carefully.
As for how to change it? In fact, in "Those Things About That Rabbit That Year", it was shown through animation.
Of course, it was fished out directly with flesh and blood, and it was just a blueprint. Several years of hard work were just burned by the opponent. Can you not feel aggrieved? Can you not despair?
They slap their butts and leave, they burn everything on fire, but can we agree to it?
We can't!
Li Yi had no way of knowing how his ancestors were feeling at that time, but he could guess and imagine how excited the person who made such a move was at that time.
In fact, there is another comparison in this scene, that is, the experts from Big Brother are dancing ballroom dancing with our girls in their arms in a bright hall. It’s very awkward, isn’t it?
But what we want is this kind of comparison!
And this is also true!
We never deny that they helped us, but they did give up on us at that time.
This rain scene, at least Li Yi feels, can be said to be an extremely special scene for the entire film.
But the original version was skipped very hastily.
It just added a scene at the end. The Big Brother expert came in to toast, picked up a piece of burned drawing and said: "If you use a calculator to calculate this piece, it will take two years, which is meaningless!"
In Li Yi's opinion, these two scenes are a bit dull, because the previous scene and the latter scene can definitely have great potential.
How could our experts be so calm after seeing the burned drawings?
Difficult, how difficult?
It took two years to calculate using a calculator, and it was only a small piece among so many drawings.
This is no longer difficult, but desperate.
But just like what is sung in "Chasing Dreams of the Pure Heart":
Maybe I don't have talent
But I have the innocence of dreams
I will prove it with my whole life
Maybe my hands are clumsy
But I am willing to keep exploring
Give all your youth without leaving any regrets
...
"Those Things About That Rabbit That Year" paired with the song "Chasing Dreams", and paired with those two scenes, the kind of picture is what Li Yi wanted.
A tear-jerking director who doesn't know when to make tears and when to sensationalize, is that still him?
Moreover, the scene of putting out the fire was too fast and hasty.
Therefore, the fire must not be put out so easily.
This scene was filmed several times, but the actors couldn't get enough of it.
Li Yi didn't say anything, he just kept grinding again and again.
When it rains, everyone stays with me in the rain.
Because the kind of aggrievedness he wanted, the aggrievedness of being burned as waste paper after several years of hard work, the aggrievedness of being looked down upon by others, the unwillingness to show it.
This was intentional on his part. Even an old actor, even an experienced dramatist, would feel aggrieved if he failed again and again without giving any explanation. So, finally, the feeling came!
"Okay, click! This one is passed!" Li Yi shouted loudly.
"yeah!"
Finally, there was a burst of cheers as if someone had been released.
If the actors were tortured, how about the rest of the crew?
Fortunately, it’s finally over!
"Born Out of the Sky" is officially announced to be finished!
