Chapter 145
Chapter 145
Of course, Chu Yian didn't go out just to escape from the world and have fun this time.
It was also to quickly produce some works and scripts without being disturbed by others.
In fact, he had already done a lot of preparations during the filming process.
He hadn't finished filming here yet, but he had already started preparing for the next work to be completed.
After resting for such a period of time, Chu Yian felt that his and Zeng Li's conditions had almost recovered, and it was time to make a big wave!
He had previously filmed romance films, and it was estimated that the audience would be aesthetically fatigued.
In fact, after his two romance films came out, Chu Yian knew that many people would follow suit and shoot this theme.
The main reason is that this youth romance movie has a small investment, quick results, and so much profit. It's hard not to be jealous.
But Chu Yian had previously made a new attempt of this type, which was equivalent to being a pioneer, and the effect and influence were naturally completely different.
And those who followed the trend wanted to get a share of the spoils. They shot quickly, piled up stars, but the scripts were not up to standard, just to force love, and the effect was naturally completely different.
Some people had to force some awkward and funny plots to make a romantic comedy. Chu Yian occasionally picked one or two and felt that his toes were digging into the ground. It was really unbearable to watch.
He knew that he would definitely not be able to shoot this theme again in the future.
Moreover, Chu Yian was going to do something fierce this time.
In fact, the movies he shot before were intended to make Zeng Lai more popular.
And now, Chu Yian wants to shine himself.
He carefully selected and compared from a number of scripts, and finally felt that one of them was the most suitable:
"I'll choose you!"
However, the shooting of this drama has to wait until the filming of Hero is completed.
Now they are waiting for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon to be launched.
After helping Li Amin run the roadshow, he will have to go to the Ugly Country.
Because Li Amin wanted to become famous in the world, he cooperated with foreign distributors.
Chu Yian also knew that this movie would only have a market in Hollywood.
North American and European audiences have always been curious about kung fu.
But in the past, Eastern martial arts films were the type that came with special effects and background music.
After a palm strike, the mountains collapsed and the sea exploded. They couldn't understand why it was like this?
But Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is a more restrained martial arts style, and it seems that people can reach this level after practicing martial arts.
It gave them a more direct perception of Eastern martial arts.
In addition, Li Amin worked hard on the control of the lens and the use of color, making the whole film look more in line with Western aesthetics.
This is the tilt and balance he made.
So many audiences in the East felt that this movie was very ordinary, or even unacceptable.
Finally, it was reasonable that the box office in the mainland was a Waterloo.
Chu Yian had expected this, but who made this movie so popular abroad?
Chu Yian felt that the box office in mainland China would be higher than in his previous life because of the effect of the gold magnetic strip.
In his previous life, the box office performance of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" in mainland China was only more than 15 million.
If we only look at this box office, Chu Yian's investment is really a loss.
In fact, after Chu Yian returned to Beijing, he met with a group of big brothers in the Beijing circle.
Now they know that following Chu Yian to invest in movies is almost a sure win.
Many people regretted that they didn't follow up and invest in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon before and really lost a lot of money.
As a result, Chu Yian smiled and said:
"I also invested because I admire the talent of Director Li Min. I am afraid that this investment will not make much money."
"This movie is different from my previous style. You will know it when the time comes."
A group of people knew that he was not aiming at nothing, and they couldn't help asking what was going on. Chu Yian explained casually, and then said:
"Now it depends on whether the foreign channels can be popular."
"But I think it's difficult. After all, how many of our Eastern movies can sell well abroad?"
So, a group of brothers comforted him again. Several senior brothers even said directly that he now has capital, and it's no big deal to lose a little.
If it really doesn't work, the funds of several senior brothers and brothers can support him at any time.
Chu Yian was also very moved when he heard the words of these senior brothers and brothers.
Because when he didn't play the leading role for the first time, but asked Deng Yu and others to shoot "Lost on Journey", they were also the first to support him.
NowAfter Lost on Journey became a big hit, they also made money, and they were all smiling.
Seeing Chu Yian return to Beijing, they naturally invited him over immediately for a good gathering.
Now they heard that Chu Yian might lose money on this investment, so they thought of the worst plan.
However, Chu Yian couldn't explain too much to them.
After all, although he was confident that this movie could make money later, he didn't dare to guarantee it 100%.
Because of his appearance, many things had a butterfly effect.
Various characters in his previous life were popular abroad, and he hoped that this time would be the same.
However, since it was not a particularly treasured film, he didn't dare to let a group of brothers invest with him.
Moreover, other people were obviously not optimistic about the investment in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Almost everyone thought it was risky, so Chu Yian naturally wouldn't let them invest with him to avoid misunderstandings.
Therefore, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which was first released in the mainland, might really become Chu Yian's lowest box office in the mainland.
However, this film can win the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.
It won a series of awards later, which directly raised its profile.
If it was released abroad first and then released in mainland China, the box office might be even higher.
Unfortunately, Li Min couldn't wait. He felt that Chu Yian was in a strong momentum before, and such a good opportunity should be released first. The overseas schedule has been set long ago, so there is no choice but to wait.
If Chu Yian missed this wave of popularity, after a while, once the popularity of Chu Yian's previous movies went down, it would not be easy to drive the box office of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Therefore, this time Chu Yian brought Zeng Lai directly to join the roadshow team. Fa Ge and Yang Ziqiong also met Chu Yian again.
When the two met Chu Yian again, they couldn't help but greet him with a smile:
"Anzi, you are awesome! I heard your popularity from far away in Hong Kong."
"Also, your movie is really good, and the Cantonese dubbing is also very good."
"We have supported you in the cinema. I feel that your achievements will definitely surpass mine in the future."
Hearing what Fa Ge said, Chu Yian quickly became modest:
"Oh, I don't deserve it, I still have a lot to learn from Fa Ge."
Hearing what he said, Fa Ge immediately smiled and pointed at him:
"You, it's okay to be a little modest in China, but you must not be like this when you go on a roadshow abroad."
"You should be more public when you should be public. Let those foreigners see the character of our martial arts masters!"
