Rebirth I can see the success rate

Soon, the movie was about to begin. Zhiling took Lin Chen’s arm and walked into the screening hall. In front of and behind them, Lei Long and five bodyguards disguised themselves as the audience, guarding them in a calm manner. .

When the movie was being screened, a soldier dressed up with short hair and capable Gu Tsai appeared on the screen.

"So handsome!"

Immediately, there was an exclamation of female fans in the theater.

But the people around didn't blame it. Instead, many people nodded silently.

Gu Zai's military uniform is indeed very handsome, and it is only the first act, which makes people feel different from the past TV series of "Xun Qin Chuan".

In the "Looking for the Qin" broadcast on Hong Kong Island TV that year, Xiang Shaolong was a Hong Kong Island policeman, but this time the movie version returned to the original setting. Xiang Shaolong became a military special soldier, consistent with the original work. .

Although it is just a change in the character setting, it has already made people feel the film's pursuit of restoring the original work.

In the first part of the journey, the film almost completely restores the original work. Xiang Shaolong appears as a prodigal son in love and an elite in the army. There are many military camp scenes in it, which are lifelike.

The audience might think it was just a set set, but Lin Chen could see that Nima was a real barracks!

It must be Wu Jing's convenience for Gu Zai.

After that, Xiang Shaolong was tested and traveled to the Kingdom of Zhao, a year before the King of Qin Yingzheng ascended the throne, only to find that he was in ancient times and could not return.

In order to be able to return to the future, Xiang Shaolong, who has a little knowledge of history, began to find the Yingzheng who had not succeeded at that time, was still under house arrest in Zhao State, and lived a proton life to help him build a great achievement.

At the beginning of the plot, Gu Tsai handled it very smoothly, not at all like a new director, and did not drag on the plot at all.

The plot that followed was roughly that Xiang Shaolong went to Handan, the capital of Zhao, and gradually stepped into the circle of the aristocracy of the Zhao Kingdom through his extraordinary martial arts and wisdom, and then started an official and love battle with Zhao Mu, the ruling Zhao Guo.

Although Xiang Shaolong is romantic but not indecent, although passionate and affectionate, he lingers in the flowers, and he is like a fish in the water in that special era.

However, after several calculations by Zhao Mu and others, Xiang Shaolong conspired to flee to Qin and disguised his son Xiaopan as the later Qin Shihuang Yingzheng.

In the end, Xiang Shaolong, with the assistance of Wu's family, successfully avoided Zhao Mu's eyes and ears, and his family escaped from Zhao State with Zhu Ji and Ying Zheng's mother and son and went straight to Xianyang.

This is the end of the first story of Zhao Guofengyun.

Lin Chen has seen the story of the TV series "Xun Qin Chuan" many times and is very familiar with it, so he naturally discovered that the story of the movie version is very different from the TV drama version.

In the TV series version of "Xun Qin Chuan", many characters and stories have been deleted due to cost reasons, but in this movie version, almost all appear!

Gu Zai collected most of the young and beautiful actresses on Hong Kong Island at the moment, and let them appear in the play. Even the maid roles that only appear for a few seconds are all beauty.

Angela, who Lin Chen arranged to join the crew, also appeared as an important figure in Tingfang.

In addition to the completeness of the plot, as the most essential point of "Xun Qin Chuan", this movie is also completely restored.

For example, Xiang Shaolong relied on the fighting skills in the army to easily fight the enemy horse bandits.Another example is that he relied on Tang poetry and Song Ci, which attracted countless beautiful women.

The plots of the pretending to be more handsome were completely restored by Gu Zai, which made the audience enjoyable.

Of course, the movie version of "Xun Qin Chuan" is not a complete restoration. Gu Tsai has made some changes to the plot of the heart and abusive people in the original book. While maintaining the tragic plot, it does not make people feel unacceptable.

In addition, due to scale considerations, some of the plots have been deleted, but Gu Tsai's handling is also good. He did not delete for the sake of deletion, but changed the plot so that it can meet the needs of the scale on the big screen.

In addition, Gu Tsai's restoration of the big scene has also allowed many viewers who were dissatisfied with the version of the drama to do as usual.

Once, Xiang Shaolong, who was deleted in the drama version, escaped the battle of Zhao Guo and was put on the big screen by Gu Zai.

The scale of this battle surprised all the audience at the scene.

Prior to this, domestically recognized movies that did well in war scenes, such as "Hero" and "Red Cliff" where Zhiling once starred, were not worth mentioning before the battle of Wujiapu.

"Oh my God! How did Gu Tsai shoot this episode?"

Zhiling has appeared in "Red Cliff" and knows the difficulty of shooting war scenes, so she feels completely incredible about the scenes on the screen now.

Because everything is so realistic.

The siege of Wujiapu by as many as 30,000 soldiers of the Warring States Period looks completely lifelike, as if the real ancient war was filmed by Gu Tsai.

Lin Chen knew a little bit of the inside story, and then explained to her: "Look at the actor who plays Teng Yi, his name is Wu Jing, he is the person who contacted the army for Gu Zai. This play borrowed 5,000 soldiers from the army. I also invited the Hollywood Lord of the Rings team to do special effects. This scene alone burned Gu Zai's budget of 200 million Hong Kong dollars."

"Two hundred million?" Zhiling was taken aback.

"That's not all. If Gu Zai himself had a special effects team and took over some repetitive work-type special effects production, I am afraid that 200 million would not be enough."

Movie special effects burn money in this way. In the past, why Chinese movies have been criticized for special effects? Even some movies that claim to have Hollywood teams do special effects are so eye-catching. This is actually because the money for those movies has not been paid.

In Hollywood, the average price of one-second special effects is $1,000!This is still the average price, if there is a requirement for time, the price will be even higher.

So Hollywood’s top special effects are all piled up with money, and the cost of a special effects movie to exceed 100 million is completely commonplace.

On the other hand, in China, if you ask the Hollywood team to say, what you say is to invest tens of millions of dollars, I am afraid that the actual money given to people is not even 10 million US dollars, and more money is given to the stars. I still want the remaining money. Good special effects, isn’t that a foolish dream?

But this time "Xun Qin Chuan" is completely different. Lin Chen's investment in Gu Zai was all used in production.

In addition to spending 200 million specifically to invite foreign teams, plus my own special effects company to finish the special effects of "Xun Qin Chuan", the rest of the budget was also used for extras, troop actors, props and scenes.

As for the stars in the movie, except for himself who is considered a big name, the rest are not newcomers, or actors from previous drama versions, and the pay is not high.

But even so, fortunately, there are not many big scenes in the first part of "Xun Qin Chuan", and the budget is enough.

If it is the next two, Gu Tsai estimates that the budget may exceed a staggering billion!

But is the investment worth it?

This can be seen from the spontaneous applause of many people around Lin Chen from the end of the movie and the beginning of the show.

If it were to be described in one sentence, Lin Chen could also use the words of an audience sitting in front of him.

"Awesome, this is the best adapted movie I have ever seen!"
