Superstar starts from the Film and Television Academy

"Well, the script is good, so let's get ready to send it to trial for establishment ." Han Fei nodded .

This script was set up with a fictional background, the main character was a retired special forces soldier with paralyzed legs, his twin brother was employed by a joint mining company, one day he received news of his brother's death, he was then received by the mining company to Planet Pandora, and the story began .

The story unfolds. Script reviews go smoothly, mainly because after the epidemic, many film and television companies went out of business and the review department had less work to do.

Soon the news that the new scripts of Bird Film and TV had been approved and approved by the media started to spread all over the internet.

Each of Han Fei's new films received tremendous attention, not to mention that he had just been awarded the Best Actor of the Huabiao Award, and for a while, almost every major forum was discussing this new film.

The most speculative is the meaning of the name "Avatar", which is a bit confusing and has a fantasy feel to it.

Many netizens have given their own guesses, some saying it is the name of a planet, some saying it is the name of a plant.

But soon, the broadcast of the movie channel's Starlight Face to Face program instantly drew everyone's attention.

"Is Han Fei finally making another sci-fi blockbuster? Looking forward to it!"

"All I want to say is, where's Han Fei, the hole-digger, and the promised Wandering Earth 2?"

Indeed, a large part of the audience's expectations for "Wandering Earth 2" is still quite high, if not for the title of Han Fei's new film was released in advance, many netizens would have thought that he was going to fill the "Wandering Earth 2" hole.

However, this is not the case, so the nickname of Han Fei, the pit digger, has become more popular, after all, the previous Tomb Raider's pit has not been filled.

A lot of tomb raiding fans have waited until the flowers have all been thankful, and still haven't waited for the follow-up episode of the tomb raiding notes, let a lot of tomb raiding fans call out: the lifetime of the series.

The online discussion for "Avatar" has not affected the progress of the Han Fei team, everyone is trying their best to perfect the movie Pandora Planet.

In fact, the Cameron team in the design of the planet Pandora, is in accordance with the real life on Earth to do the basis, such as Pandora tree fairy, in fact, was inspired by the deep sea jellyfish, lightning beast is a cheetah.

Hallelujah Mountain, in fact, is the Yellow Mountain of Warsaw, but through special effects, floating in the air.

Of course, the Han Fei version will definitely not use the name Hallelujah Mountain, the holy mountain of the planet Pandora in the film is called "Kunlun."

It's just like the original "Wandering Earth", many of the props in the "Avatar" are not available for purchase, each piece needs to be drawn up first and then customized, some can only be printed out with a 3D printer, modeling.

This is a huge project, Wen Qi, the artist has become the busiest person, everyone is waiting for him to produce the drawings, so that the rest of the work can continue.

And Jiang Qinghou was not idle either, he had to draw out the sub-scripts as well as the sketches for many of the scenes, otherwise it would be difficult for Wen Qi to have a direction.

After all, "Avatar" meant so much to him that he didn't want to ruin this epoch-making film just because of his own negligence.

"These sketches won't work, what we're trying to create is a fantasy atmosphere, not a horror film, what we're trying to convey to the audience is a feeling of beauty and danger, this clearly doesn't match the theme." Han Fei Dao.

Wen Qi scratched his head in frustration, before he still felt that he was a good idea, but after being told so by Han Fei, there were indeed some problems, the style of these sketches were on the dark side, too rough.

There was no choice but to draw again, Wen Qi knew that if something went wrong here the whole back of the shooting would be in disarray, and he could only strive to stay up late and work overtime to catch up.

In addition to the preparations made in the capital, there were also a number of photographers sent to various parts of the country to shoot location photos, and a large number of photos were sent back almost every day.

In addition to the Yellow Mountain and Zhangjiajie used in the original version, Han Fei also planned to include many of China's beautiful scenery in the film.

Even if it's a big science fiction film, he still insists on the mode of real scenery + special effects, because the effect will be far more realistic than, using special effects keying.

It's also worth mentioning that, with the experience gained from Rise of the Planet of the Apes, there's no need to hire a special effects company to produce the motion capture system in Avatar, which will undoubtedly save a lot of costs.

As for the actors, there is no need for them. After all, the main focus of this film is on special effects, and most of the main characters are faceless, all appearing as "Smurfs".

Since Han Fei's new film has been exposed, all the agencies in the circle are staring at this piece of fat meat, after all, Han Fei's films, even in a supporting role, can get high attention.

As long as it works properly, it's still no problem to raise the curry position by a small grade.

However, after a month has passed, there is still no news about the public casting of actors for "Bird TV", which makes people wonder if this guy is going to eat alone.

In fact, Zhou Jian would like to see all the actors and actresses of "Avatar" to be played by his own artists.

This makes it very difficult for many high priced artists to take the initiative to lower their pay, right? I can't face it. You're not going down? Sorry, no film shoot, no film shoot means no exposure, and naturally, other advertising endorsements have to shrink as well.

So for artists in the entertainment industry, the downtime during the epidemic isn't the hardest thing to bear, but rather the hardest thing to bear is after the epidemic.

The netizens are also very curious, "Avatar" script has been approved for more than a month, it is reasonable to say that should have been established a long time ago, how come there is no news?

There is even a rumor on the internet that because of the acquisition of the cinema line, Han Fei's liquidity is not enough, and the investment of "Avatar" is too huge, so Han Fei has been busy in financing this time.

It's a good thing that Han Fei has been busy raising money for a while.

However, they seem to have forgotten that the box office share of "I am not the God of Medicine" will arrive in a month, and "Avatar" can't possibly use up more than a billion even if it invests heavily, right?

But don't tell me, this is very popular in the circle, causing Han Fei to receive several calls a day asking if he needs investment.

If it wasn't for the cognition of these investors, they would have thought it was a scam call.

Han Fei was so annoyed that he could only post a message on his microblog, stating that the company was in good financial condition and did not need investment.

This also makes many circles lament, look at people, don't want money, investors take the initiative to come to the door, and then look at themselves? Begging grandpa and grandma for an investment, sometimes drinking until your stomach bleeds, you just can't talk about it.

Chapter 480 - The Unexpected Death.

More than twelve thousand drawings, more than four thousand split-screen scripts, these were all the results of three months of Han Fei's team's work, and the film's budget had far exceeded Han Fei's estimates.

The budget of the film has far exceeded Han Fei's estimation. 1.8 billion RMB, not to mention the publicity costs and the probable cost overruns, the moment the budget came out, Han Fei was struggling a bit.

Even if the box office share of "I am not the God of Medicine" arrived, it wouldn't be enough to reach 1.8 billion.

For a moment, the conference room was silent, everyone was waiting for Han Fei to make a decision.

"Shoot, money isn't a problem, I'll think of something!" Han Fei gritted his teeth.

Jiang Qinghou and the others were relieved, in fact, when they saw the amount of the budget, they were really shocked, there was no doubt that this should be considered the highest production cost of any film in the history of Chinese films.

They were also aware of Han Fei's current situation, but the film's allure was too great for them, even though it was still only in the early stages of preparation, they were already attracted by the world in the drawings and sub-camera, how could they be willing to give up now?

The good news was that Han Fei was still the same Han Fei who had a passionate obsession with the film, and he didn't mention cutting the budget or giving up on the project, but chose to withstand the pressure.

In fact, the moment HAN Fei made his decision, everyone in the cast and crew would have been under pressure.

The production cost of 1.8 billion will be unprecedented, surpassing the 1 billion of "Wandering Earth" at that time, not to mention, the disclosure of this cost alone is enough to shock the entire Chinese film and television circle.

Finally, on the day before the Spring Festival holiday, the latest progress of "Avatar" was reported. Of course, many netizens were not interested in these figures, but what really shocked them was the production cost of 1.8 billion.

1.8 billion? And just the production costs? If we include the publicity, it'll be two billion dollars, right?

The whole internet was in an uproar, what is 1.8 billion? Before "Wandering Earth", the production cost of one billion is enough to shock people, although in the end Wandering Earth in the mainland film market, not only to recover the cost, and a small profit, but actually did not earn much, compared with the previous Han Fei other film investment income, in fact, is very low.

That is, later on, there was some success in the overseas market to make up for this part of the deficiency, however 1.8 billion production cost, to recover the cost in the domestic cost is quite difficult, the box office must be at least five billion or more to be possible.

A lot of netizens have said that this melon is too big, too full, if a different film and television company, they will certainly think that this is naked speculation, however, "bird film" production costs have never been misrepresented, credibility is still very high.

This undoubtedly makes many viewers call out the addiction, "wandering earth" one billion production cost of special effects, let people see the blood boiling, this time 1.8 billion production cost, special effects will certainly be a higher level.
