In the background of Harry Potter's story, Rowling's hometown, the three-quarter platform railway station, has become a well-deserved Internet celebrity attraction.

In the United Kingdom, because Harry Potter conquered the Americans, the love house grew up.

This is actually quite understandable.

The British have mixed feelings about Americans.

From a cultural point of view, the United States was once a British colony, a little brother-like existence.

How can the British look at the United States.

But the reality is that the United States is growing rapidly, surpassing the United Kingdom in every aspect of its economy.

This kind of complex emotions that both despise and envy it for its development.

profoundly affected the United Kingdom.

Now, a novel created by the British has conquered the Americans, and has also been made into a movie by a great director like Steve Kevin.

earned $500 million at the box office.

It's hard not to make the British proud.

Patriotism can be found in any country.

Under such sentiments, countless Britons went to the cinema to watch the movie one after another.

Suddenly, a magical wave swept across the UK.

And with this heat, it spreads around.

On the other hand, Asian countries.

Being crushed by the film industry.

Fans really can't refuse this kind of special effects movies.

To put it bluntly, Americans have long been accustomed to first-class special effects and gradually began to watch the plot.

In fact, moviegoers in Asian countries rarely see this level of special effects.

Under this special effect, the plot of the story is actually weakened infinitely.

Of course, having said so much, to put it bluntly, the audience is actually willing to go to the cinema for this kind of special effects blockbuster.

This level of special effects will make the public have an idea of ​​​​returning the price, and they are willing to step into the cinema for this.

First Korea, then Japan.

Next, of course, is the mainland.

Thanks to Kevin's promotion of mainland culture, and Harry Potter is healthy and pollution-free, even children can watch it.

One frame passed the review without any reduction and entered the film market directly.

At the same time, the mainland branch of Chenxi Films also began to contact the major theater chains to discuss the distribution issue, and conducted careful discussions, and finally obtained 80% of the films from the theater chains in the 20 most economically developed cities.

As for other places, the current channels of Chenxi Movies have not developed to that point.

And it doesn't really matter anywhere else.

These 20 cities have basically concentrated the people with the highest willingness to watch movies. In fact, most of the other places are still willing to buy pirated discs to watch later.

In this day and age, only a small number of people have spare money to go to the cinema.

on the day the movie was released.

Zhang Yimou and Jiang Wen came to the cinema with a tacit understanding.

The duo's minds have changed somewhat since they talked carefully about the film's development with Steve Kevin.

To put it bluntly, when other people speak, they may not be convinced.

But what Steve Kevin, a big Hollywood director and the boss of a big studio, said, if you think about it, makes sense.

They came here just to get a feel for the scene, the gap between the film industries of the two sides.

Also, what can they learn from it.

This kind of behavior is like the author reading books written by other authors, absorbing the advantages of others, and can more or less make oneself progress.

Speaking of which, in fact, in the past two years, they have not stopped, and they have each made a movie.

Jiang Wen is still the same, filming the scenes he wants to film.

As for whether the audience can understand it, in his opinion, it doesn't matter at all. To put it bluntly, he made a movie for himself.

His films were also blocked as expected.

On the other hand, Zhang Yimou made a commercial film and successfully made a box office of 20 million yuan, which is considered a profit.

However, there is still a huge difference between this achievement and the Hollywood blockbuster.

When the two entered the cinema, they found that the people who came to the cinema were couples with children, or couples.

Two big men, somewhat embarrassed.

Luckily they sat in the back.

Not many people noticed them.

 

The movie starts playing.

The picture came to Hogwarts.

Kevin's real scene created the realistic scene of Hogwarts, and naturally it is impossible to just pass a simple picture.

Through the helicopter live aerial photography, the panoramic view of Hogwarts appeared in front of the audience.

Zhang Yimou frowned and asked:

"Jiang Wen, do you think this is a real scene or a special effect?"

From his experience, this should be a real scene, but he is not sure, after all, the cost is too high.

Jiang Wen glanced at Zhang Yimou and said carelessly:

"Reality."

"I pay attention to the news in the United States. It is said that Steve Kevin copied all the scenes in the play one-to-one in order to shoot Harry Potter."

"I heard that in more than a month, it has received 200,000 spectators. It's crazy to make money from tickets."

Hearing this news, Zhang Yimou suddenly raised the idea of ​​going to the United States for a visit.

Chapter 295 Anne Hathaway

He knew it from the bottom of his heart.

The difference between the mainland film circle and the Hollywood film circle.

This is a movie market that is fundamentally far behind.

If he didn't talk to Steve Kevin, he might just slowly catch up and work hard.

But after talking with Steve Kevin, he suddenly had an idea.

He wanted to go to Hollywood and try filming.

He wanted to try, under the industrial system of Hollywood, what kind of movies he could make after learning.

As for how to go.

It depends on whether Steve Kevin is willing to give him this opportunity. He can see that Steve Kevin appreciates him very much. Taking advantage of this, he hopes that Kevin can take him to become a leader in Hollywood. famous director.

Only by experiencing it personally can we know the root of the gap between the two sides and how to pursue it.

Void speculation, floating on the surface, is without any hope.

The movie continued, Zhang Yimou put down his discrimination against such commercial films and began to watch Harry Potter carefully.

Of course, it's Steve Kevin's movies that let him put that mentality down.

The current mainland directors have a sneering attitude towards commercial films, and they will undoubtedly be discriminated against by only making commercial films.

Just discrimination is not enough, they will suppress and exclude them with the attitude of their elders.

In such an environment, it is difficult for commercial film directors to succeed.

Those directors who do everything for the so-called art and for the award are praised by them instead.

Zhang Yimou was like this before.

It wasn't until after the conversation with Steve Kevin that he got rid of this thinking and began to face the role of commercial films.

At the same time, I began to understand the market environment in which Kevin's words were mainly commercial films, supplemented by art films.

Other directors, thinking can be so simple.

But as he is the number one director in mainland China, of course he has to think differently.

As the first person, he should shoulder a greater responsibility to help the mainland's film market become more prosperous.

In this way, the status of the director's profession will be higher.

Isn't that what people pursue?

Either for fame or for profit.

He, Zhang Yimou, is not a saint either. With money, it is not the poor who can be a director. Naturally, he is not short of money.

So, of course, he was for a name.

Zhang Yimou watched Harry Potter with an attitude of analyzing the movie almost the whole time, but Jiang Wen didn't think so much. He was appreciating the movie from the perspective of the audience.

The more he looked, the more Zhang Yimou frowned.

He found that Harry Potter is a typical American commercial film model, and all the rhythms are almost the same as the textbooks of the American Film Academy.

This also seems to be characteristic of Steve Kevin.

He is like an invisible machine, all the rhythms are so precise, he grasps every emotion of the audience, and keeps the audience's emotions under his control.

It's like watching a movie about men and women. When you don't go in, the audience will always look forward to it.

But once it happened, it was boring.

This is also the reason why the climax of the movie is often stuck at the last point.

Everything in front is a foreshadowing.

Although every director has learned these basic film knowledge, in fact, many directors do not use it in this way.

The pacing of the film that came out was a mess.

Especially many art films, the shooting is obscure and difficult to understand, the rhythm is a mess, and the audience is also scolded for not knowing how to appreciate it.

These people have been the masters of people for a long time, and the things they shoot are not for people to see at all.

Not to mention that ordinary people don't watch it, even the audience that this kind of director wants to get doesn't like to watch it.

Keep these things firmly in mind.

After the movie was over, Zhang Yimou immediately took Jiang Wen to the Beijing branch of Chenxi Film Company, and passed on Zhang Yimou's request to Kevin through them.

 

Chenxi Film Company is currently conducting a casting activity.

In addition to the dual protagonists, the male and female supporting roles have to be selected separately. Of course, Kevin left these things to others to do.

But the heroine, who plays the role of Dwayne Johnson's wife in the play, is Kevin himself.

To put it bluntly, Kevin is just looking for something new.

This kind of thing, in Hollywood, is simply accustomed to.

At this point, even if he was not an American in his previous life, he knew how powerful Hollywood's unspoken rules were through the accusations of female stars.

At the same time, relying on the body, it is not uncommon to have a one-time customized film director, assistant director, investors, etc., it is not uncommon to sleep all over the crew.

It can be said that the entertainment industry all over the world is generally black.

If you don't have a background and want to be clean, don't step into this circle.
