Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

The latest website: "No way, will the whole picture after that be with this accuracy?"

"How much does it cost to burn this set and special effect?"

Lu Xiaoping was very confused, because the performance of "Mission and Choice" in the details has far exceeded his expectations!

Although Lu Xiaoping heard some rumors before that Tenda had invested heavily in the new film this time, he just listened to it casually and didn't take it seriously.

Because bragging is the norm in the industry.

Just like an ancient marching battle, a hundred thousand people can hardly blow up to five hundred thousand. Anyway, if you blow out the numbers first, you can cheat a few.

For a movie, it costs a lot of money to buy IP and hire big-name actors, and then add publicity and marketing expenses. It is said that it has invested several hundred million. In fact, there is not much money actually used in film production. .

Lu Xiaoping originally thought that "Mission and Choice" said that it was a domestic science fiction movie, and the ceiling of domestic science fiction movies has always been there, not very high at all.

But now, Lu Xiaoping is very confused.

Is this really a domestic movie?

The details are indistinguishable from those Hollywood blockbusters that have spent a lot of money!

Could it be said that "Mission and Choice" really saved all the IP money and the pay of the big-name actors, and also saved the publicity expenses, and actually put all the money on the production of the movie?

Thinking of this possibility, Lu Xiaoping had only one thought: crazy!

This is more than an adventure, it is a suicide!

If other crews do this, it is almost no different from seeking a dead end. Of course, it is impossible for the crew to do this, because it is absolutely impossible for the management to agree.

But Tenda is different.

Obviously, Feihuang Studio is not committing suicide. They dared to do so because they have a strong self-confidence in the film "Mission and Choice", and believe that it can sling the same even without regular publicity. All games in the schedule are out of the siege!

Lu Xiaoping realized that there was a big problem in his judgment!

He previously thought that "Mission and Choice" was filed because of lack of self-confidence and wanting to avoid the Golden Week schedule, but now he has discovered how is this possible?

The quality of this film, after the Golden Week, I am afraid that it will kill the existence of the Quartet. How can I be afraid of "Warship of the Wrath"?

Things are not good...

Lu Xiaoping continued to look down with an extremely worried mood.

...

The following plot can be said to be full of twists and turns and climaxes. There is no urine in the whole process, and it is full of various reversals, which makes people dizzy.

The whole story of the movie revolves around the role of Qin Yi, and the emotions of the audience are all affected by the role of Qin Yi.

Although it was a one-man show, Lu Zhiyao fully supported the role through acting very well, and successfully completed the task of mobilizing the audience's emotions.

The whole story can be roughly divided into the following stages:

In the first stage, Qin Yi became a commander. Through simulated battles, he learned about the scenes of the defeat of humans and the Zerg before, and understood the necessity of communication between the commander and Ansible, accepted the position of commander, and carefully trained.

In the second stage, after fully familiar with the operation of the console, Qin Yi began to conduct simulation training. Everything was going well, but after adding the "realistic element", the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse and the human army was defeated. In order to improve the winning rate, Qin Yi slowly became accustomed to accepting AEEIS's data and suggestions, and gradually became a commanding machine without emotion.

In the third stage, Qin Yi saw the mission of his original AS-371-45 team, and finally made the same decision as the previous commander. Qin Yi finally understood the behavior of the former commander in the conflict and struggle, and made many painful choices in order to win.

In the fourth stage, everyone thought that Qin Yi was ready, but what he got in return was a more brutal slap in the face. In the deduction of the final battle, even if it is fully commanded according to the recommendations of AEEIS, mankind is still losing ground.

Qin Yi is almost in a state of collapse. He no longer believes that humans can win in this war. No matter whether it is deceived or not, no matter what command method is used, he cannot win the war.

In the fifth stage, Qin Yi realized that it was wrong to use cold data to measure the value of everyone. The original command method did improve combat efficiency to a certain extent, but he used the tactics of the Zerg to fight the Zerg and wanted to change all the soldiers. A cold machine is absolutely impossible to succeed. As a result, Qin Yi chose to tell all the soldiers the truth, and used a desperate speech to rekindle everyone's beliefs, and the war once again turned around.

In the sixth stage, Qin Yi’s body was overwhelmed by intense thinking. In his coma, he felt the worm’s nest consciousness. The Zerg queen showed him the truth of the past. It turned out that the war between humans and Zerg was initiated by humans, and Zerg The empress’s behavior in the Worm’s Nest is trying to communicate with Qin Yi, but she has only succeeded now.

On the surface, Qin Yi made a reconciliation move, but in fact deceived the Zerg queen and executed the beheading action, which directly established the victory.

In the seventh stage, Qin Yi, who thought the war was over and wanted to evacuate, was betrayed. The command ship he was riding in rushed into the swarm to commit suicide. However, he did not expect that after all the minor queens were beheaded, he became a worm with the consciousness of the nest Group of new brains.

At the end of the film, actually left two suspense.

The first suspense is whether it is the executive committee or AEEIS that decides to betray Qin Yi?

The remarks AEEIS said to Qin Yi pushed all the pots to the Supreme Executive Committee, creating a feeling of "cunning rabbits dead and running dogs". But in the footage of the Supreme Executive Committee’s meeting, AEEIS said that Qin Yi took the initiative to seek death, and the committee members all expressed regret.

Obviously there are two possibilities: one is that AEEIS deceived both the top and the bottom. It deceived both Qin Yi and the Supreme Executive Committee. It effortlessly killed a human military genius and cleared it up to take over the entire human army in the future. The other is that some people in the Supreme Executive Committee have instructed AEEIS and acted pretendingly.

And these two possibilities respectively hint at two different sequels of the future "omnic crisis" or "civil war".

The second suspense is that Qin Yi in the Leviathan beast inherited the worm's nest consciousness, and his body was also transformed by the Zerg into a special life form. He is a soldier with natural loyalty to humans, but he has suffered the most shameful betrayal.

Will Qin Yi choose to lead the swarm in revenge? Or will it embark on a different path? Can he be called a human? How will he perceive himself?

Obviously these contents will not be revealed until later.

...

The big scene of the interstellar war dazzled all the audience, and some people were even immersed in this shocking emotion, and even forgot to exclaim.

From the initial defeat of human beings when encountering insect swarms, to small-scale simulation training, and finally to large-scale battles on the vast starry sky and the surface of the planet...

All the war scenes in the film are gradual and escalating. The audience followed Captain Qin Yi from weak to strong, step by step witnessing the protracted and grand war between humans and the Zerg in the space of space.

What shocked Lu Xiaoping is that although the special effects of this movie are very cool, it is obviously not only special effects.

In terms of storytelling and emotional mobilization of the audience, this movie has also done a great job!

Although on the whole, the war scenes of the movie are constantly escalating, the emotional tone of each stage is constantly fluctuating, like a wavy line, with peaks and troughs, showing a spiral rising in fluctuations. The state is completely unpredictable.

Other movies often show these contents through conflicts between characters. For example, when in trouble, members of a team with different personalities propose different solutions. The fierce debate will make the audience in front of the screen become irritable. In the end, when everyone agrees and overcomes difficulties, the audience will feel that their emotions have been released.

This is a commonly used routine in many literary and artistic works. Although old-fashioned, it is easy to use and there is no risk.

However, in "Mission and Choice", Lu Zhiyao completely through his own performance and playing with that cold artificial intelligence electronic sound AEEIS, alone supports the emotional tone of the movie!

This feeling reminds Lu Xiaoping of a one-man movie in the past two years. It is about the protagonist being buried alive in a coffin in the desert, and he is constantly exploring and using various props around him to survive the whole process, and finally thinks of dawn. Arrived, but only despair was waiting.

In that movie, the whole process is also a one-man show with the protagonist alone, but it brings continuous suspense to the audience. The unique perspective, superb shots, and twists and turns of the plot made this movie a success that year. A box office miracle, with a box office of 20 million dollars at a cost of 3 million dollars, a great success.

And "Mission and Choice" is similar to this movie to some extent.

The protagonists of the two films are trapped in a small space. Facing an unknown fate, they are fighting hard. Although they fail again and again, they are still indomitable.

They all withstood the test of the acting skills of the one-man show, and supported the emotions of the whole movie on their own, and also allowed the audience to be perfectly substituted into the movie.

The difficulty of this kind of performance is very high, like a big bet, all the chips are bet on the same game, once it succeeds, it makes a lot of money, but once it fails, it means nothing.

The difference between the two lies in the emotional tone.

The protagonist who was buried alive was in a coffin, extremely narrow, and the despair he endured came from both mental and physical destruction. The audience, like the protagonist, has a severely limited perspective, and is in a state of cramped, depressed, and desperate throughout.

Although Qin Yi was in the space capsule, he could see the real situation around him through the bulkhead of the holographic image, and his vision was not restricted at all. The despair he endured was more of a spiritual devastation, which was the suffering of human destiny alone.

Both performances are a severe test for acting skills, but Lu Zhiyao's performance seems more difficult.

Because most of the despair Qin Yi endured came from spirituality, the whole setting and environment could not have much effect on his emotions. At this time, if you want to mobilize the player's emotions, you must completely place hope on the road. Performance.

Fortunately, Lu Zhiyao completed the task very well and dedicated his most perfect acting since his debut.

It even made Lu Xiaoping feel that what he saw was not Zhiyao, but another person, or... it was Captain Qin Yi himself!

Since the performance of "Better Tomorrow", Lu Zhiyao's acting has improved by leaps and bounds.

In the past, many people sprayed "box office poison" and "excessive acting skills", but from "Better Tomorrow" to "Mission and Choice", Lu Zhiyao's acting seems to be constantly improving, changing from outside. It has to be restrained, those exaggerated expressions are gone, replaced by more delicate psychology and well-designed micro-expressions, the whole person seems to be completely integrated into the character!

In the last scene of the film, Qin Yi woke up in the incubation pool inside the Leviathan monster, his eyes suddenly opened, and the camera gave a close-up.

There seemed to be too many complicated emotions in his eyes.

In fact, at the beginning of the film, there was also such a close-up, but at that time Qin Yi woke up from the dormant cabin, and at the end he woke up in the incubation pool inside the Leviathan beast.

The two eyes seem to have something in common, but the background, the appearance of the protagonist, the subtle expressions, especially the eyes, are very different.

The dormant cabin and the incubator are like wombs. This shot clearly symbolizes Qin Yi's rebirth.

It's just that in these two lives, Qin Yi played the human commander and the heart of the swarm respectively.

Just like the beginning of the film, the expression at the end lasted for several seconds before cutting to the next scene.

His thoughts spread rapidly in the universe, and all the larvae in the incubation pool surrounded him, becoming an extension of his consciousness.

Then, the camera quickly pulled up to the starry sky outside of the Leviathan behemoth. This terrifying zerg wandering aimlessly in the universe also suddenly opened his eyes, speeding up and advancing quickly toward the endless starry sky!

A large number of Zergs followed behind the Leviathan beast, disappearing into the depths of the screen like a comet with a long tail.

At this point, the movie ended, and a list of cast and crew appeared on the big screen.

The ending song sounded. This is an impassioned war anthem, describing the scene of a soldier about to set off on the battlefield.

Originally, this song should be very exciting, but the scene it accompanies is the scene of human soldiers cleaning up the mess, and the Leviathan beast carrying Qin Yi finally disappearing into the universe, making this song inexplicably full A sense of inexplicable sadness.

With a "pop", the lights of the cinema came on.

Many viewers just woke up like a dream, and the praises of "Fucking" and "Awesome" are endless!

"Fuck, it's awesome!"

"I didn't expect this ending!"

"It's still not enough, this ticket is too worthwhile!"

At the end of the premiere of "Better Tomorrow", most of the audience felt unclear.

Because the performance of "Better Tomorrow" on many key issues is quite obscure. As a feature film, there are actually not so many impressive scenes. After watching it, you will feel a bit stuck in your heart. You have to watch the film review while savoring it. , In order to read the deep meaning.

But "Mission and Choice" is an out-and-out popcorn film, full of various big scenes of space wars throughout the whole process, the emotions toss up and down like a roller coaster, there are troughs and peaks, giving people an extremely emotional experience stimulate.

Therefore, after watching "Mission and Choice", the feelings of most viewers can only be summed up in two words, that is, "brilliant"!

This kind of sensory impact is more direct and stronger, especially the eyes of Qin Yi in the last scene with the ending song, so that the audience's emotions are finally released, which is refreshing to the peak and at the same time memorable.

The audience got up one after another and couldn't wait to share their experience of watching the movie with their friends around.

"Too awesome! The special effects of domestic science fiction movies can achieve this level? It is completely comparable to Hollywood blockbusters! I was dazzled by the whole process, and there was no drama at all!"

"Sure enough, Tenda's film is awesome! It will never disappoint!"

"It's not too much to invest a few hundred million in publicity for this film? Unfortunately, the publicity is not enough, and the lineup is not high."

"It doesn't matter, I'm afraid that a film of this quality will not become popular?"

"In the end, Qin Yi's treatment was really too burning. I thought it was another cliché plot of different species shaking hands and building a beautiful universe together. Feel comfortable!"

"Lu Zhiyao's acting is really good. I feel like Pei always has Lu Zhiyao's instruction manual. It used to be box office poison. Now this acting is improved visually. It really feels like a movie king!"

The audience was full of praise, obviously, the actual effect of this movie far exceeded their psychological expectations!

Although the audiences who watch the movie are for various reasons, most of them still don't have too many unrealistic expectations.

Everyone knows what the state of domestic science fiction movies is. If the producer of "Mission and Choice" is not Tenda but some other company, even if it is some very rich and large company, the audience will not look at it. As a guinea pig.

Because no company can gain such a high degree of trust from the audience like Tenda.

In addition, there is not much publicity for this movie, and most viewers think that this may be a "small and beautiful" film, that is, a type with enough advantages but obvious disadvantages.

But after watching the movie, I realized that it was not the case at all. All aspects of this movie far exceeded everyone's expectations!

And this mentality has also virtually elevated the audience's evaluation of "Mission and Choice".

It’s like going to a restaurant to eat. It’s almost delicious. If it’s in a restaurant that has received a lot of praise on the Internet, then the customer may find it difficult to get under the prestige; but if it happens in a small alley Customers will be surprised and unforgettable if they eat it at an anonymous store!

Lu Xiaoping and the person in charge of the announcement of "Furious Sea Battleship" did not immediately get up with the other audience, but fell into silence.

From the beginning of the movie to the present, the two of them haven't said a word.

The person in charge was shocked by the film. He was originally drowsy, but now he is very excited, especially the scene of the last scene lingers in his mind, and the picture can't disperse for a long time.

Although "Mission and Choice" is a competing movie, the better the performance means the worse the situation of "Warship of the Wrath", but the person in charge is not in the mood to consider this for the time being, because he is completely conquered by this movie and only has Appreciation from the heart!

After a long time, the person in charge said: "There should be no more eggs."

Lu Xiaoping nodded silently: "Um... maybe."

The person in charge said: "Then, President Lu, let's go?"

Lu Xiaoping: "Let's go..."

His mood is very low.

They came to see the premiere of Horizon Field today with the mentality of watching a joke, but they never expected that they would become a joke.

There were still many spectators who did not leave the scene, obviously they were waiting for the Easter eggs.

But Lu Xiaoping judged that there should be no easter eggs. On the one hand, because the movie hall has been lit up, it is also because the whole story has been told very clearly, and no easter eggs are needed to continue to warm up the next part of the story.

Strictly speaking, the whole story should end when Qin Yi was betrayed and sent into the swarm by AEEIS.

The Supreme Executive Committee of the Joint Fleet meets and Qin Yi wakes up in the Leviathan monster. These two plots are more suitable as Easter eggs.

But these two plots are too important, and the duration is also very long. If you make an easter egg, there will be a sense of fragmentation, so Zhu Xiaoce considered it again and again, or put these two plots at the end of the movie, and they played well with the ending song. effect.

Lu Xiaoping also judged for this reason that there should be no easter eggs in the movie.

But just as the two were about to leave, some pictures appeared next to the list of people who were scrolling.

At the end of the film, there are no easter eggs, but there are other things.

These are some NG shots taken by Lu Zhiyao when shooting!

Facing the green screen, he said his lines over and over again, performing in a different way, and sometimes he stopped when he was half dissatisfied, and just repeated it continuously.

For the same emotion, Lu Zhiyao has to act out different feelings at least five or six times. After carefully savoring, choose the most satisfying one.

There is also a scene of Lu Zhiyao's dialogue with the AEEIS automatic intelligent bar lifter.

In the eyes of the audience, many of Lu Zhiyao's performances are actually very good, but Lu Zhiyao himself is still not satisfied, still performing over and over again, every plot must be perfect.

Although these lenses are not bad when taken alone, they pale in comparison with those in the feature film.

The remaining audiences are basically diehard fans. Although the lights in the theater are already on, they still insist on seeing the end, holding the idea of ​​"what if there are eggs".

Unexpectedly, I really squatted to an unexpected joy!

"Fuck, how many times do you have to take the same shot?"

"Lu Zhiyao is so ruthless. I feel that his state is a little bit crazy. The same lines have to be changed in several ways, and the effect is better than one. On the other hand, those who do not even recite the lines and act only know the number 1234567 counterparts. The type of small fresh meat, the judgement is up against you!"

"In fact, strictly speaking, although Lu Zhiyao came from a professional class, he didn't have much acting skills at first. He was better than Xiao Xianrou, but it was not much better. But unlike Xiao Xianrou, he was not satisfied with the fanfare. , But constantly strictly demanding and tempering one's acting skills, so that we can bring us such wonderful performances as "Better Tomorrow" and "Mission and Choice"!"

"Indeed, Lu Zhiyao's performance improvement is really visible to the naked eye, this movie ticket is too worthy, it is a **** profit!"

"There are still many people in "Better Tomorrow" who say that Lu Zhiyao is based on Tengda's book and the acting skills are also brought by Zhang Zuting. Now this argument should be self-defeating, right?"

"Indeed, if one person supports a movie with hundreds of millions of investment, there is no need to discuss the issue of fan position, because he is the only actor!"

"Should I be able to get rid of the title of "Box Office Poison" this time? Two consecutive movies have performed so well, and most of them will become a veritable movie king in the future!"

The audience sighed with emotion, even some people who were originally insensible about Lu Zhiyao were sincerely happy for his progress.

In recent years, there have been more and more streaming movies, and the acting skills of all kinds of small fresh meat in various so-called "big production" movies have repeatedly exceeded the lower limit, and many audiences have long been uncomfortable.

On the other hand, the road far away is a completely different path from those little fresh meats. It is obvious that you can rely on appearance, but it depends on talent. For this, you have made unimaginable efforts. How can people not like it?

Finally, the final cast of the film and Lu Zhiyao's NG shots were all played.

The few remaining spectators finally left contentedly, not idle, and quickly posted a circle of friends to blow up.

Lu Xiaoping and the person in charge of "Furious Sea Battleship" walked out in a muddled manner, as if they had lost their souls.

On the one hand, I was shocked by the content of the movie. On the other hand, after watching "Mission and Choice", I felt extremely worried about the current situation of Fanqi Media and "Warship of the Sea".

At that time, my mind was hot, UU reading www.uukanshu. What a terrible opponent com has provoked!

There is a price to pay for movies like Porcelain.

Lu Xiaoping's plans are all based on the "Poor Quality of "Mission and Choice"". Only from this will come to touch porcelain and increase the popularity of "Warship of the Sea".

But if the two movies are compared and "Warship of the Wrath Sea" is rubbed on the ground, the heat that has been rubbed before will be bitten back!

If "The Battleship of the Angry Sea" wins, it is domineering and confident, but if the "Warship of the Angry Sea" loses, then it is acid and the clown.

This feeling is like a boxer in the ring. I thought that the opponent was a weak chicken. Before the match, he put all kinds of cruel words out, but I didn’t expect that when I stepped on the stage, the opponent took off his coat and arms. Thicker than his own thighs.

This is a hammer!

The two were silent, and they knew in their hearts that the situation is bad enough, but in fact, all this has just begun!
