Lin Zixuan and his entourage stayed on the set for five days before returning to China.
The two sides reached a certain consensus, and since the project has not yet begun, more detailed things cannot be determined for the time being.
For example, which companies to work with, the operation process of the loan, and the choice of actors and behind-the-scenes staff, it all has to be done slowly.
They agreed on the general direction, and then someone else would do it, and there was no need to run the chores themselves.
After Li Yu finished filming the film in his hand, he would come to the mainland in the second half of 98, one to watch the location, and the other to choose actors.
After selecting the actors, they need to undergo training for three months to half a year, including basic training in martial arts and training in various etiquette rules in ancient times.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon has a clear historical background, and you can't tell a story beyond the background, which doesn't seem real enough.
The contact person on Li Yan's side is a foreigner named James, who is Li Yan's producer in Hollywood, and he is responsible for dealing with investors.
Lin Zixuan is ready to let Yu Dong take over the follow-up work.
This is a good opportunity to understand the operation model of Hollywood, and with this cooperation, I will have the experience and channels to communicate with Hollywood studios in the future, and I will not be too passive.
Lin Zixuan values this kind of experience, not only a Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon film, but also the first step towards internationalization.
In China, the popularity of winning the Golden Lion Award in the Spring of Small Cities has slowed down.
Yu Feihong, who got the Venice film, has never shown up, Tian Zhuangzhuang can't be interviewed, and the media can't find a focus person, so they can only interview Wang Zhiwen and Zhang Guoli and others.
Reporters always feel that they have missed the point and are not entertained enough.
Yu Dong came back from Venice, and the Spring of the Small Town sold well, not only recovering the cost, but also making a net profit of more than 100,000 US dollars.
This is the difference between winning an award and not winning an award, and if you don't win an award, you may not even be able to recover the cost.
This kind of film is not going to the box office, it is not a commercial product.
At the beginning, Lin Zixuan said to Tian Xiangzhuo, you don't have to think about the box office, if you think about the box office for a while, and how to spend money, then you can't shoot.
The purer the motive, the better the resulting film.
Spring in a Small Town will definitely not have many audiences when it is released in China, and everyone may have walked into the theater because they were interested in actors like Chen Daoming at the beginning, but it would be good to insist on not leaving the theater halfway.
So Jiang Wen's sunny days are also literary films, how can he get a box office of 50 million in China.
This reason is more complicated, one is that the subject matter he filmed is sensitive, catering to the psychology of the audience, and the plot of the film has been sought after by young people, so the box office reputation has been bumper.
This is something that can be encountered but not wanted.
Literary films cannot be said to be synonymous with poor box office, but most literary films are dismal at the box office, and only the films of a few big directors will have box office appeal.
Lin Zixuan thought of these considerations before filming the Spring of the Small Town, and now he has won awards and made money, which exceeded his expectations.
Yu Feihong returned to the capital and participated in the first interview program was Shanshan's interview.
This is an actor from his own company, Lin Zixuan will not give this opportunity to other media, and Yu Feihong will mention their meeting with Li Yu in the United States in Shanshan's interview.
You don't need to mention it too deliberately in the show, it's just so casual.
This seemingly casual statement can attract the attention of the media more than directly saying the news of cooperation with Li Yu, and the media will make up the whole process by themselves.
Lin Zixuan brought the leading actors of the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon TV series to the United States, and he must have invited Li Yu to make a movie.
In other words, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is going to make a movie version.
This matter is enough for the media to hype for a while, from the investment in the film, to the selection of actors, and Li Yan's first martial arts film, all of which are topics that can arouse everyone's interest.
Now that a preliminary cooperation agreement has been reached with Li Yu, the propaganda work in China can begin.
At present, Good Dream Company will only admit that it is in contact with Li Yu and intends to invite Li Yu to direct the film.
As for the details of the contact, it will be released little by little, and a news will be released every once in a while to keep the topic going.
This is the first time in China that a domestic private film and television company has cooperated with a Hollywood director, not to mention Li Yu, who has won many awards in the international film industry.
With the two news of the award of Spring in a Small Town and the movie version of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, the popularity of Good Dream will rise to a new height and receive more attention.
The episodes of the sequel to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon are about to be broadcast on TV, and with this news, the ratings are not bad.
Yu Feihong and Mu Shanshan have met many times in the company, but this is the first time they have had such a face-to-face conversation.
Mu Shanshan is the proprietress of the Good Dream Company, although she doesn't care about the company's affairs, she can't underestimate her influence on Lin Zixuan.
The two sides have communicated in advance, and there will be discussions on which topics cannot be asked and how they need to be answered, so as to avoid embarrassment during recording.
Of course, recording the program will not be so rigid, it is just an outline of the interview, you can play a little during the interview, it seems more life-like, if the topic is really not suitable for broadcasting, just cut it out in post-production.
"After getting the Venice film, how has your life changed now?"
asked Mu Shanshan.
"Nothing has changed, I'm a relatively simple person, I don't have many hobbies except filming, I usually just read books and movies."

Yu Feihong replied.
In fact, after winning the award, it still brought a lot of changes to her life, and she became even busier.
In addition to interviews with the media, advertisers also came to the door.
In the past, Yu Feihong's salary for shooting an advertisement ranged from 50,000 to 100,000 yuan, depending on the brand, and the price of big brands was naturally higher.
Now she has to start with 200,000 yuan to shoot an advertisement, and if it is an international brand, it will be calculated according to the US dollar.
When the price of advertising rises, the salary will also rise, the salary for filming an episode of a TV series is 15,000 yuan, and the salary for a movie is 500,000 yuan.
This is the latest price offered by Good Dreams, once she releases the news that she is about to cooperate with Li Yu to film, whether it is true or not, she can increase her value and win the favor of advertisers.
In order to deal with these trivial matters of bargaining, the company arranged for her a broker.
Before this, Good Dream Company had not equipped an agent for actors, not even Ge You, that was because Ge You's life was simple and easy to take care of, and sometimes he solved it himself, and he didn't want to bother others.
Actresses are different, they have to take care of face, and it is impossible to bargain directly with advertisers and lose their share.
This highlights the role of agents, and at present, domestic first-line actresses have agents or assistants.
Whether she wants it or not, Yu Feihong's life has changed a lot. t1706231537:
