I heard that it was not due to the film technology, but the audience's mood did not improve at all. On the contrary, it became even more sad.
Although everyone is worried about the technical gap in film shooting, it is still acceptable. Vertical takeoff and landing is related to national defense technology.
Li Hong received a reminder from the director in her ears. She knew that the current topic was too pessimistic, so she quickly changed the topic.
"So this time you used Hollywood techniques to shoot "The Opium War," right?"
It seemed that Xie Qi had a lot to say and took the initiative to get through the microphone.
"The script was not like this at the beginning. It was the modifications we made after Mr. Xiao joined in. If the gap between our Chinese films and international films that Mr. Xiao saw was in terms of technology, then the difference between us and Mr. Xiao
The only difference lies in concepts."
Li Hong asked: "What concept?"
Xie Qi's expression fell into memories.
"When we were creating the original script, we still designed it according to the previous rhythm and plot. But after Mr. Xiao read it, he said on the spot that it wouldn't work like this. This is not what a blockbuster should be."
The old man kept waving his hands and didn't seem to be embarrassed because he was self-deprecating.
"The previous scripts had too many dramas, and there were no twists and turns in the plot. Just like when everyone reads a history book, the plot is exactly the same as what is described in the history book. We originally thought that we would film something based on historical facts and history.
It was a blockbuster movie. But Mr. Xiao taught us a valuable lesson and gave us an unprecedented impact."
Li Hong faces the audience.
"Maybe everyone doesn't quite understand what Mr.
The style of a first blockbuster movie.”
The clips that the program team got were the highlights and plot highlights that Xiao Qian planned to use for promotion.
At this time, it was first announced through "Chinese Literature and Art" in the hope of creating a sensational effect.
The audience was very excited when they heard that they could try it out. They all fell silent and stared at the big screen.
The picture flickered slightly, and the powerful and passionate melody penetrated everyone's eardrums.
Adapted from the melody of "he's a pirate", He Shanzhi, played by Shen Jue, screamed and flew across the blue sea and sky, causing continuous exclamations.
The vast expanse of the sea, the thrilling undulations of the waves, the bloody and cruel naval battles, and various thrilling scenes made many people’s hearts beat faster and their breathing became breathless.
Seeing the flying ax flying through the air from a very far distance, as if it was about to hit them on the head, many spectators even closed their eyes in fear.
All this is so realistic that it is completely unbelievable that this is just a movie.
The pirate attack footage flashed by, followed by a larger-scale naval battle.
The overwhelming British fleet pressed towards the coast from far to near, like dark clouds, with an astonishing momentum.
The whistling solid cannonballs pierced the sky, dragging strong sparks and smashing the solid city walls, as if the explosion site was right next to everyone. The falling bricks and stones everywhere made many people get up and try to escape, until they discovered these
After finding out that it was all fake, I felt very embarrassed.
Since it was a trailer, it naturally wouldn't be too long. After dozens of seconds of highlights, when the show was over, the audience all let out a cry of regret.
Obviously, everyone hasn't had enough of watching it yet.
Li Hong was also stunned, losing her elegance and calmness as a host for the first time.
Compared to the average audience, she is naturally well-informed. But such a magnificent and epic war scene still gave her an unparalleled impact.
"Is this... is this really a movie? Why does it look so real?"
She just sighed casually, but the audience echoed it one after another. This shows that everyone had the same feeling, and they were all conquered by this clip of only a few dozen seconds.
Everyone thinks that when the movie comes out, they will bring their relatives and friends to watch it together no matter what.
Li Hong's curiosity was completely aroused and she approached Xiao Qian directly.
"Mr. Xiao, we just saw a shot in the trailer. It was a cannonball flying in the air with a very clear trajectory until it finally hit the target, causing an amazing effect. I would like to ask, is this shot really real?
Filming?"
Xiao Qian is still happy to answer such questions.
"Of course not. The speed of the artillery shells is so fast that no tool can catch up with it. During the filming, we set up high-speed cameras under the muzzle of the artillery and at the impact point to capture the ejection chamber and the shells.
The instantaneous picture of hitting the target. As for the flying part in the middle, it is a flight simulation using computer technology, and then animation technology is used to create a digital model that is exactly the same as the real artillery shell, and then grafted into the film, what we see is
picture."
"oh……"
Everyone suddenly realized it, but they still felt it was magical.
Twenty years later, any animation studio would be able to produce such special effects. But in this year, it is definitely a scorpion shit—poison (only).
"Is this technology made by an American special effects team? How did you find this special effects team?"
Xiao Qian started to speak plainly (huo).
"To be exact, it's a special effects studio in New Zealand. It just so happened that when I was visiting my old friend in Los Angeles, I happened to meet him. The other party was looking for investment, and I thought they had more development prospects, so I made an investment. Strictly speaking,
After all, this should be our own special effects studio in China, but the people working in it are foreigners."
I heard that he had even invested in foreign special effects studios, and everyone was shocked.
Those who come here are all loyal viewers of "Chinese Literature and Art" and have seen countless great figures in the literary and art world on the show.
However, what those people said was completely different from what Xiao Qian said.
Many of the stories told by Da Neng are basically in the form of memories.
How it was in the past, how it was back then. Although it is enough to make people remember it, it is also a time that most of the audience has experienced.
There is nothing new except for the common sense.
But the movie special effects and computer simulation technology Xiao Qian talked about are too science fiction for ordinary Chinese in this era.
It just so happens that everyone has seen the movie scenes just produced through technology.
The effect was completely unexpected and shocking, and the blood of those who watched it was boiling with excitement.
Many people ask themselves, if all the movies shown in cinemas are this kind of movies, they would still go to see them even if the ticket price is more expensive.
Initially, everyone was a little regretful when they heard that the special effects used in the movie were made by foreigners, but when Xiao Qian said that he had invested and turned the special effects studio into a Chinese asset, everyone became happy again.
It feels like I heard in my previous life that Huawei's sales abroad have hit new highs.
Obviously it has nothing to do with the people, but because it is China's own company, it makes people happy.
Unlike ordinary people, Li Hong sees things more profoundly.
"Mr. Xiao, are you more optimistic about the future of film special effects? Is this planning for your future film industry?"
Xiao Qian decided to conduct a popular science study on movie special effects.
"I think everyone has a misunderstanding, that is, when it comes to movie special effects, they think it is a very high-end, very avant-garde thing. In fact, movie special effects technology has been accompanied by the birth and development of movies. Movie special effects refers to the technology used in movies.
The techniques used in shooting, including the simplest lens color, lens language, split shots, etc., are actually movie special effects. Even those used in movies many years ago
Movies such as "Tunnel Warfare" and "Mine Warfare" also use special effects technology. It's just that because of different times, special effects technology has been developing. Movies without technical support cannot tell good stories.
My opinion is that in the film industry in the future, special effects will play a more important role than the most basic elements such as directors, actors, and screenwriters."
He was afraid that everyone would not understand, so he made another metaphor.
"For example, if we want to show a dragon in a movie, the director and screenwriter can assign various positions to the dragon. Angry, kind, powerful, humorous, etc. This can be told through stories.
It’s for everyone. But what exactly this dragon looks like requires special effects to create and present it to everyone. If the special effects can’t be done, then everyone won’t be able to see the dragon, right?”
"Hua Hua Hua..."
There was a wave of applause from the audience, and many people looked at the young man with extremely complicated looks.
It’s not surprising that young people are so powerful, but being able to use the simplest language to explain areas that no one understands is enough to show how extraordinary young people are.
Thinking of the movie clips they just saw, many people felt emotional.
It was the first time that Xiao Qian sat in front of the camera and comprehensively explained his concept. The effect was extremely good and he immediately entered the hearts of the public.
Now, more people know that in the Chinese entertainment and culture industry, there is such a leader with forward vision and ideas, who is leading the Chinese film industry on the right path.
China's film industry is so lucky to have such young people!
