Tear-Jerking Director Chapter 917: When Fiction Comes into Reality
The beautiful scenery of the Alps made Li Yi and Xu Nannan's family quite lingering.
It has to be said that in this regard, there are still relatively large differences between China and abroad.
In fact, the scenery in China is much more wonderful and brilliant than the scenery here in the Alps.
But there are so many people in China. After everyone has money and leisure, they will naturally not miss this kind of beautiful scenery. Therefore, when there are more people, they don’t just enjoy the beautiful scenery, but watch the fun.
This also makes famous scenic spots often overcrowded during many holidays. Instead, they put the cart before the horse and focus on tourists, and the scenery becomes a foil to the huge crowds.
"Heidi" is a foreign novel after all, and Li Yi never thought of changing it into a domestic version, otherwise it would completely lose its original flavor.
But he is not particularly familiar with foreign countries, which is why he specifically sought cooperation with Dean Films.
This is not the first time that we have collaborated, and there have been many subsequent collaborations. Li Yi may not be as famous in Hollywood as he is in China, but he is definitely not an unknown person.
If he was willing, he would have continued to develop in Hollywood after "The Truman Show" and would have already occupied a place here.
Therefore, when Dean Pictures learned that Li Yi was going to make a movie, and it was also an English film, they naturally paid special attention to it.
Providing various conveniences for Li Yi, even the producer who coordinated the crew for Li Yi was Li Yi's old acquaintance Carlos.
It's just that Carlos was Li Yi's assistant director earlier, but this time he has the title of producer, but Li Yi's movies are still all about Li Yi.
Carlos said he was the producer, but in fact, he was more of an assistant to Li Yi.
Including setting up the crew, including casting, spotting, etc., in any case, providing one-stop service for Li Yi.
Although "Heidi" is a movie similar to a children's movie, and it does not involve any special effects, the investment in this movie is really not low, at least among movies of the same type, it is not low.
Already.
The budget for the entire film is approximately US$40 million, which is more than US$200 million in China, which is definitely not low.
The main reason is that this movie will be shot in the Swiss Alps. At the same time, this movie will be jointly invested by both parties, and Li Yi's director's salary is not low.
In addition, although this movie does not have too many special effects, but was shot in real scenes, in order to achieve the best effect, the equipment used is the best at the moment.
Not only that, but also, the main role of this movie will be a relatively well-known and capable actor.
"My Iceberg Beauty Wife"
Their remuneration is not a small amount either.
For example, the role of the little heroine Heidi, to be honest, is actually quite difficult to choose, because the characteristics of this role are very obvious. She must have a "down-to-earth" temperament, but at the same time she must have an eye-catching personality.
A bright innocent sweetness.
Moreover, Little Heidi plays a very important role in the film, and it also tests the acting skills of young actors. For this reason, we must not choose any new actors to play the role. It must be a well-known young actor with acting skills. Such a young actor, even if he is in Haolai
There are not too many docks.
Next is the role of Clara. This role is relatively simple, but at the same time, she must have the temperament of a noble lady, or a princess...
The remuneration alone for the actors in these roles must be a high cost.
...
Time flies. On this day, Li Yi, who had been silent all of a sudden, updated a set of photos on his Weibo.
What is surprising is that the protagonist in the photo is not Li Yi, but several children.
The photo was a picturesque one. Li Yi left a message under the photo:
"In the Alps, under the clear blue sky, in the gentle breeze, among the grass and on the hillside, the little girl named Heidi ran happily..."
It immediately attracted countless movie fans who exclaimed.
"Holy crap, where is this? The Alps? Isn't this so beautiful?"
"Heidi? I remember she was the protagonist of some fairy tale, right?"
"Director Dog has gone on a trip quietly? Is this Director Dog's daughter?"
"Girl? What the hell? This is obviously a foreign girl, right?"
"Haha, what happened to the foreign girl? Is there anything impossible?"
"Even if it were, Director Dog wouldn't show it here so blatantly, would he?"
"Is it possible that the dog director is making a new movie?"
"Is this a landscape film? Damn it, this is so beautiful. What kind of movie is this?"
“Look at this picture, it’s really picturesque, look forward to it!”
For a time, many movie fans asked, what does Li Yifa mean by these photos?
Who are the children in the photo?
This time, Li Yi did not show off, but posted another short video of aerial photography of the beautiful scenery of the Alps.
This season coincides with the transition between autumn and winter. The scenery of the Alps is the most unique time. The green mountains and green water and the snow falling thousands of miles form an extremely sharp contrast. In addition, the Alps protect the natural environment very well, so it is presented
What comes out is the magnificent and authentic scenery of nature.
The dandelion balls blooming all over the mountains and plains, the clear and clear lakes hidden in the grass, the gurgling clear springs flowing from the mountain streams, the snow-capped Alps in the distance, and even the wisps of wind blowing through the hair...
.The pictures frame by frame make people feel like a fairy tale, so beautiful that it is unreal, and so desirable.
"The movie "Heidi" is currently being filmed!"
After this new Weibo post was posted, there were even more discussions.
"It is indeed a movie! However, a dog director is still good at playing. Imagine that the reason for filming "Cinema Paradiso" was to travel to Sicily, so maybe this time it was also because of the skiing in Switzerland that the idea of filming this movie came into being.
Movie?"
"Heidi, this was my favorite fairy tale when I was a kid. I'm really looking forward to Director Dog's version!"
"This picture is really amazing, but "Heidi" has been adapted many times. I wonder what the dog director will change it into this time."
"I seem to have some memories. When I was little, the bedtime story my mother told me seemed to be about Heidi. I wonder if this is it?"
"The girl of the Alps, the angelic Heidi, a story that cleanses the soul!"
In fact, Heidi is not that famous, or in other words, compared to some of the more famous protagonists of fairy tales, Heidi's fame and influence are relatively not that great.
Of course, this refers to the domestic aspect.
But Li Yi's appeal was not limited, and soon everyone couldn't help but look up who "Heidi" was, and then they saw the novel "Heidi"!
Some people immediately fell in love with this story. The scenery described in the novel was depicted in pictures, which naturally gave people a completely different feeling.
The most lovely thing about this story is that even if you know it is a fairy tale, you still believe that such a thing can really exist, especially when paired with real scenery, it makes people feel like fantasy has come to reality.
