Chapter 606 Modify the script
Lian Xingyu and Xiao Zhao happily left with the creative artwork of "Transformers". In two days, Yang Ming will give them the plot outline of "Transformers". ↖top↖dian↖ Xiao↖ said,...o
Now, Xiao Zhao is going to form a creative team immediately and start his early creation.
Yang Ming saw them away and sat on the sofa in his office. He couldn't help but lie down and moaned comfortably. He was so tired recently.
Because of the release of "One Goal to Fame", his mood was too tense.
Now everything is settled, just wait to collect the money, so today he has time to let people come to Oriental Comics to launch a new comic plan.
The "Transformers" plan was decided to start filming after careful consideration by Yang Ming. As a member of the entertainment industry in his previous life, even if he was the lowest-level artist, he still remembers "Transformers" making trouble in the domestic box office market.
In his previous life, in 2007, "Transformers" was introduced to China and suddenly became the domestic annual box office champion that year with a box office of 282 million yuan.
In 2009, the second part of "Transformers" had a total domestic box office of 451 million yuan, ranking second in the domestic annual box office, and the first place was the Hollywood blockbuster "2012"! The box office difference between the two was only 15 million yuan, and "Transformers" ranked second!
In 2011, the third part of "Transformers" had a total domestic box office of 1.081 billion, once again becoming the domestic annual box office champion.
In 2014, when countless domestic filmmakers were still happy that Xu Zheng's "Lost in Thailand" in 2012 broke several records that were long-standing Hollywood blockbusters, the fourth part of "Transformers" hit a total box office of 19.79 in China, and once again poured a pot of cold water for domestic filmmakers.
At the same time, the total box office of the fourth part of "Transformers" also broke the domestic total box office record, which was previously maintained by the Hollywood blockbuster "Avatar".
It can be said that in his previous life, on the eve of Yang Ming's time travel and rebirth, he had never seen the dawn of the rise of Chinese movies!
The four-part "Transformers" is also a very important role in the Hollywood blockbuster that brought countless blood and tears to the film world in the previous life.
A movie is made into four movies, three of which are the first in the domestic box office. Even if one movie becomes the second, it is only a gap between the first one.
Yang Ming remembers that whenever industry insiders talked about the movie "Transformers", they all had the same fear and envy, and then they shook their heads dejectedly, giving people a sense of powerlessness!
The box office of the fourth "Rebirth of Extinction" reached a sensational 1.979 billion yuan, which is only 20 million yuan from the 2 billion mark!
This number is simply a striking data for everyone in the film industry in the past life.
Although the Chinese film industry in this life is not as bad as in Hollywood, and most of the box office share of the movies is occupied by Hollywood blockbusters, Yang Ming found that this sign has already occurred.
If there was no self-made movie "A Goal to Fame", then China's total box office champion this year is likely to be "Magic Magic" filmed by Hollywood.
And he learned that the Hollywood blockbuster has begun to prepare for the second part of the sequel, and will meet all viewers around the world next year!
If China does not have a movie that can withstand the box office offensive of "Magic Magic" next year, then China's total box office champion next year may be won by Hollywood blockbusters again.
However, Yang Ming needs time!
"Transformers" is obviously impossible to be released next year. He must wait until the comics and cartoons are promoted globally and have a certain fan base before they can be announced to be filmed as a movie, and it will not be produced and released until the next year.
Then, next year, Oriental DreamWorks must have a blockbuster, and now we can start to consider preparing for the preliminary preparations for this blockbuster.
Yang Ming lies on the sofa with his eyes closed. He must consider which blockbuster to shoot. He must consider in advance which blockbuster in his previous life. It is not impossible for some to shoot for a year, and some even take two or three years.
Although he has a cheater, it doesn't mean that he can make a good blockbuster in a short time.
Special effects lenses are hard skills, and they cannot be successful by taking shortcuts.
"Which movie should I make?" Yang Ming was lying there, his fingers playing rhythmically on his body.
Blockbusters must be blockbusters. To be honest, he also had the urge to make a blockbuster. He has been in this world for so long and experienced so many things. All his preparations are accumulating experience in filming movies with shocking scenes.
A gunfight movie?
Explosion, gunfight, kung fu, racing...
Yang Ming thought about the elements of gunfight blockbusters and gave up. This was not the effect he wanted. Now, like his previous life, a movie must come forward to tell them what path should the future movies take?
In fact, through two lifetimes of film knowledge, he felt that the reason why the domestic film industry in the previous life was beaten by Hollywood was because he was too persistent and obsessed with Kung Fu.
No matter what movie, there must be wonderful fighting scenes.
Fight from the sky to the ground, from the ground to the water, fight in the car, fight on the boat, fight on the plane, anyway, it's all kinds of fights!
However, these wonderful fighting scenes considered by the domestic film industry cannot match the amazing special effects scenes in Hollywood.
Even some film companies spent huge amounts of money to hire Hollywood special effects teams to produce the big scenes, which were mainly fights.
Kung Fu is the national treasure of China! In the golden age of movies in the 1980s and 1990s, any plot scenes where Kung Fu superstars beat foreigners and Japanese in the movies would be praised by the audience!
Thus it was successful.
If you study it carefully, you will find that this is actually the glorious history of Hong Kong films.
Later, mainland movies became popular after 2009, and many film companies also wanted to replicate the prosperity of Hong Kong films. Unexpectedly, they spent a lot of money to invite influential kung fu stars in China and even internationally to shoot kung fu blockbusters, but were beaten up by Hollywood blockbusters!
Why?
Because the kung fu film is out of date.
If kung fu films could shoulder the dream of Chinese filmmakers in their previous lives, Hong Kong films would not be able to recover after experiencing underestimation.
It can be seen that the plan to revitalize Chinese movies through kung fu films is simply impossible!
No matter how good or exciting the game is, it is not as good as the Hollywood special effects scene!
Of course, there is a prerequisite, that is, the plot of the movie itself must be rigorous!
Instead of the fact that many film and television companies made a few big scenes in the past life and made money.
The special effects in the four movies of "Transformers" are of course very outstanding, and they are even the best in the world, but don't forget that all the special effects scenes in this movie are all based on the creativity of this movie.
If there is no creativity and storyline, no matter how good the special effects are, they are just a fancy and not useful!
So, Yang Ming thought about it in his heart and gave up shooting blockbusters such as gunfights and kung fu. He decided to really make a blockbuster that made moviegoers in the whole world scream for!
He wants to use this movie to tell filmmakers in this world what is the future development direction of Chinese films?
He wants to use this movie to tell the West and Hollywood that China can also have its own blockbusters!
For an entire hour, Yang Ming was lying on the sofa, thinking about this question. After his heart screening, a movie soon appeared in his mind!
When he thought of this movie, he immediately became energetic, immediately sat up, and began to seriously think about the possibility of shooting this movie.
The more he thought about it, the more Yang Ming felt that this movie was the movie he wanted to make!
The plot and special effects are not bad either.
And they are all at the top of the ding level.
However, the plot of this movie still needs to be carefully modified by Yang Ming to fit the world background of this world!
He did it as soon as he thought of it, and Yang Ming immediately returned to his desk and wrote a few big words on the manuscript paper with a pen.
"2012"!
That's right, what he wants to shoot now is this movie. Whether it is the plot or the special effects shots, they are definitely first-class.
Is the plot of world destruction explosive enough?
Isn't it big enough for the landslide to collapse?
In his previous life, the global box office of this movie was nearly 700 million US dollars and the mainland box office was 466 million. Whether it is box office or reputation, "2012" has completely surpassed all other movies of the same period.
However, the plot and characters in "2012" need major changes!
There is no doubt that the protagonist's family must be Chinese. After all, this is a movie that Yang Ming declared his ambition to the domestic film industry. If he still uses the American background in his previous life, it will certainly please foreign audiences, but for his identity, it will definitely be extremely embarrassing.
Must be Chinese.
Moreover, in the past life, in order to achieve good box office results in China and please domestic audiences, Hollywood at the end of the movie, the last gathering of people who saved humanity was placed in Tibet in China!
At that time, countless domestic viewers were still extremely honored when they saw this plot.
But now it is convenient for Yang Ming.
This plot can be adjusted slightly.
In fact, his modifications to "2012" are limited to the identity and social background of the characters. He will not make any modifications to the outline plot and theme of the movie.
Yang Ming buried his head in writing and drawing on paper for a while, then turned on the computer, started typing, and sorted out the plot of "2012". If Su Su hadn't called him, he wouldn't have known that it was already evening and it would be time for supper.
However, now he was in a state of great inspiration, so he asked Susu to buy a dian of food and deliver it to the company. Then he started writing the script of "2012" day and night.
While changing the character identity of the new script that suits the present life, Yang Ming thought about actors who match the character in his mind.
He decided to play freshman dian if he wanted to play.
The starring actors in it, this time, are planning to use big names, and this time, he is only a director, not an actor, because he doesn’t care about it!
This time it was really a big scene.
Moreover, Yang Ming has already figured out the best candidate for the male and female lead in this movie.
That is the senior brother Yang Chaowei and his lover Zhou Meiling who have helped him many times!
The combination of the Golden Dragon Award winner.
———
I stayed up late yesterday, and some dians were tired, so that’s all. I’ll write another dian later to prepare for tomorrow to prevent you from suddenly throwing away 15 monthly tickets tomorrow!
Chapter completed!
