Chapter one hundred and sixty-five is magnificent, sad
When Ma Xinhua read the entire script.
But my face was already filled with tears!
To be honest, Li Yi and Ji Qiusheng were both a little surprised. Ma Xinhua's reaction was much more exaggerated than they expected.
Although Li Yi himself was "watching" this movie, he couldn't help but feel sad and tearful.
But nothing like Ma Xinhua, who burst into tears.
"Okay, okay, okay!" Ma Xinhua said three good words in a row!
"Director Li, Mr. Ji, I'm sorry for making you laugh!" Ma Xinhua said while wiping his tears.
"A lonely city thousands of miles away is full of white-haired soldiers. How majestic, we are soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. How sad, we are soldiers of the Tang Dynasty!" Ma Xinhua sighed.
"Maybe you two can't understand why I reacted so strongly, because I was once a soldier!" Ma Xinhua seemed to see the confusion of Li Yi and Ji Qiusheng and said.
Li Yi and Ji Qiusheng immediately understood.
Indeed, such a story is definitely more touching for people with a military background.
"Fighting the enemy for forty years, the youth is all old, how tragic and heroic, Director Li, your intention is too..." Ma Xinhua didn't know how to describe it for a while.
"Moreover, this story is connected with our Huaguo UnionPay QuickPass product, and the intention is also elevated. Every penny transferred by users is the mission entrusted to them by users. Good, good, good! Director Li,
It seems that we have found the wrong person, this is what we want!"
Ma Xinhua praised repeatedly.
"Minister Ma, there are a few points that I think I might want to explain in advance." Li Yi thought for a while and said.
"Director Li, please speak." Ma Xinhua said seriously.
"First of all, if I was asked to film "The Last Transfer of Money in Mobei of the Tang Dynasty," I would film it according to the standards of a theatrical film. Therefore, I will strive for excellence in details and in serving the Tao.
, and the cost is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary commercials." Li Yi said, getting vaccinated in advance.
Because this film is a period costume, and it contains historical facts, so the weapons, flags, copper coins, armor, etc. used in it all require a lot of manpower and material resources to make.
For this reason, the cost of making a film like this will never be very low. Even making a short film like this is enough to make several low-budget films.
When Ma Xinhua heard this, he smiled and said: "Director Li, just rest assured on this point. Even if you don't mention it, we will mention it. For such a story, we either don't shoot it or we do our best to shoot it. In terms of production funds,
You don’t need to worry at all!”
"Secondly, because this film contains historical facts, it will inevitably cause certain obstacles to the dissemination of the film. Therefore, the effect may not be as good as expected." Li Yi added.
Many people may wonder, why is this happening?
But this is the fact. For most people, if they don’t know this period of history when they see this film, it will seem that they are actually half-informed in many cases.
Therefore, this kind of film actually has certain requirements for the audience.
"I understand what you said, but on the other hand, because of this, this film can not only serve as our advertising film to achieve the purpose of publicity, but also attract some people to understand this period of history. Therefore, Director Li,
There is no problem with this at all. In my opinion, it is a good thing!" When Ma Xinhua heard Li Yi's words, he immediately understood his concerns.
Advertising and movies are always different.
Advertising pursues maximum dissemination, so you will find that many advertisements are actually the kind that people can easily understand after watching them once, and they do not involve too many people's knowledge blind spots.
Because this can make the advertisement spread wider and be accepted by more people.
But on the other hand, commercials like "The Last Transfer in Mobei of the Tang Dynasty" that require attention to some historical knowledge are actually not so friendly to some people.
However, Ma Xinhua didn't care at all. As he said, if this advertisement can not only serve as an advertisement, but also make some people take the initiative to understand this dusty history, that would be a good thing.
Ma Xinhua suddenly looked at Li Yi strangely.
This made Li Yi a little confused, not knowing what Ma Xinhua meant.
In fact, Ma Xinhua thought of director Li Yi, who is a director from Hong Kong.
So why does the identity of a Hong Kong director make Ma Xinhua feel weird?
It can be said that this is due to some historically related films produced by Hong Kong film directors.
As we all know, although not all historical-related films produced by Hong Kong directors are criticized for "not seeking to understand".
For example, in a certain Three Kingdoms, the Battle of Red Cliff was filmed as a street fight between young and Dangerous boys in Hong Kong.
What if the world rises and falls, women are responsible for it.
Therefore, Hong Kong film directors have always given people the impression that they are really not good at making historical-related stories.
As I take pictures, people will always think of the characteristics of Hong Kong Island, clubs, young and Dangerous, rush games, etc.
And "The Last Transfer of Money in Tang Dynasty Mobei" can be said to have lofty aspirations, recreating that extremely sad period of history. This kind of film is actually produced by Li Yi, a young director from Hong Kong Island, so Ma Xinhua will inevitably think of it.
Some feel weird!
"By the way, Minister Ma, if you calculate the time for "The Last Transfer in Mobei of the Tang Dynasty", after it is filmed, it should be just in time for Penguin Video's second Penguin Cup Micro Film Competition this year. Mr. Yan from Penguin Video has invited
I asked me to bring my work to the celebrity screening this year, so maybe Minister Ma can contact Penguin Video, I believe it will have a big effect on the promotion of this film." Li Yi suddenly said.<
/p>
When Ma Xinhua heard this, he was startled for a moment, and then he said with some joy: "Director Li, you are really surprised one after another. Last year, Director Li's "Deal" won over 100 million yuan in the Penguin Video Micro Film Competition.
Regarding the number of views, I will contact Penguin Video. Regarding the commercial, I will have to trouble Director Li. Don’t worry, this time, I will definitely try to get the most resources to promote this film."
After seeing off the smiling Ma Xinhua.
Ji Qiusheng looked at Li Yi with more and more amazement.
Although the two parties have not formally signed a contract, Ma Xinhua's attitude is enough to satisfy Ji Qiusheng.
Of course, he also knew that all this was because people looked at Li Yi's face.
And Li Yi did not disappoint the other party. On the contrary, it can be said that this film hit the heart of former soldiers like Ma Xinhua.
It can be seen that Ma Xinhua burst into tears when reading the script before.
However, although the script was given by Li Yi, he had a headache.
If it comes to other movies, it would be no problem for him to find his old team.
But "The First Transfer in Mobei of the Tang Dynasty" really doesn't work.
His previous team members were all veteran behind-the-scenes staff from Hong Kong, so it can be said that their experience was indeed rich enough.
But this time it also involves their blind spots!
This also has a lot to do with the fact that Hong Kong Island is just a small place.
