766. The biggest difference between "King Kong" and other monster movies
"King Kong" is a super big production, after all, the production cost is more than US$100 million.
But there are not many investors in this movie.
It cannot be said that it is not too many, but that the only ones that really invest in this movie are Xingmeng and Huaxin.
Other giants, such as Times Light and Shadow, such as Jiuzhou in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and Huanyu, also invested part of them, but they did not pay real money, but instead replaced resources.
What is resource replacement?
That is, when they issue, they provide support in the screening process in exchange for a part of the investment share.
This is actually the norm. Of course, this is also because the director of "King Kong" is Chen Shaojun. Even though the script of the movie was written by Wang Yifan, the investment is too great after all. Before this, Chen Shaojun was just a small-budget film director. For this reason, it is difficult for people to have confidence in him.
For this reason, this time, although it was a trial show, most people have high expectations from Wang Yifan's new movie. Many people are not very optimistic about the movie "King Kong".
"The production cost of this movie exceeds 100 million US dollars, plus promotion and promotion, it can exceed 1 billion Chinese coins, right?" said a theater business representative and another colleague.
"Who said it's not? Big money is big money, just director Chen Shaojun. He seems to have never made such a big movie before. However, I heard that this person is Wang Yifan's best friend and childhood friend, it's no wonder he can get such a big cast movie." Another theater business representative said.
"Hey, no matter whether they are related to the household, after all, the movie was made, and it was just a mule or a horse that pulled it out. We are just watching the fun. I really think we can decide on the filming or something?" Another representative of the theater business said without regard.
At the same time, Lin Husheng and Chen Hanming were also chatting.
"Yifan actually trusts Director Chen quite a lot." Lin Husheng said with a smile.
Chen Hanming shook his head and said, "Young boy, best friend, and maybe your brother-in-law. If you don't trust him, who else can Director Wang trust?"
When the project of "Dialogue" was launched, Lin Husheng was actually a little hesitant, but in the end he chose to believe Wang Yifan.
In fact, there is no other reason, because even if the benefits created by Wang Yifan fails, it doesn’t matter to Lin Husheng.
However, the outside world is not that optimistic about "King Kong". After all, although Chen Shaojun has the qualifications, such a super big production, usually the director is almost the kind of big director who has proved himself.
Although Chen Shaojun's previous movies were pretty good, they were all low-cost movies and were not reference-oriented.
The big screen dimmed, and "King Kong" was already finished, so the version is the version that will be released. The first thing that appears in the picture is the company logo for film investment and distribution such as Huaxin Pictures, Xingmeng Entertainment, etc.
Then there is the director: Chen Shaojun!
Screenwriter: Wang Yifan!
Seeing Wang Yifan's name appear on the big screen, although he was not a director or a screenwriter, the representatives of the theater chain dealers on the scene couldn't help but sit up straight.
There is no way, Wang Yifan has a very good reputation.
Basically, so far, as long as you have the title of Wang Yifan, whether it is the director or screenwriter.
Even the small-cost videos of the previous new star guide plan have almost no losses, and at least it is a small profit.
Therefore, Wang Yifan's name as the Golden Saint Hand even surpassed his director's name to some extent.
Because I am a director, I can make blockbusters and get billions of box offices. It is indeed awesome, but after all, I am just one person, and I have a movie that is the best in a year.
But the screenwriter is different. Although his screenwriter's works, although the box office of other movies, cannot stand the high yield!
Although many people know that Wang Yifan actually made up a story outline and filled it with other screenwriters, this itself is also terrifying.
What is scary is not how exciting these stories are, but that Wang Yifan seems to know what the audience likes to watch.
The film begins to officially appear and the story begins.
A curve slightly curled up in the corner of Wang Yifan's mouth. Although movies are different worlds, different backgrounds, different directors, and different actors, generally speaking, they still give Wang Yifan a sense of familiarity. This feeling is very subtle, which is also the fun of Wang Yifan watching these movies.
Others watch movies exciting or not, but Wang Yifan involuntarily compares them with movies from his previous life in his impression.
The early story is not much different from the script written by Wang Yifan. In order to complete the shooting of his latest movie, a director who was on the verge of despair told a huge lie. He followed the crew and the fleet to sail into a mysterious sea with reefs according to the location of the map...
Go and find a place called Skull Island!
For a movie, if the audience can continue to watch, the first thing is the story. At least there should be no too many mysterious things, but there must be something that can attract the audience.
The previous story of "King Kong" explains the background, but it not only explains the background, but also lays the hook.
The Skull Island they are looking for is that hook!
The previous conversation was explained by Skull Island, but from the conversation, we can know that Skull Island is a very terrifying place.
For this reason, the audience on the scene couldn't help but feel curious about what the place called Skull Island looked like, because the movie seemed to be rendering the horror of this place.
The film did not let the audience down for too long, and quickly satisfied the audience's curiosity.
The heroine in the film was caught because she provoked the indigenous people on the island. After the heroine was captured, the group of indigenous people actually presented the tender and tender heroine to a terrifying existence in the mountains. When the huge figure appeared in the dark, many viewers subconsciously exclaimed...
Monster movies have one very special thing in common, that is, the film usually sets many obstacles to the appearance of monsters.
It will be paved for a long time.
But "King Kong" is not like this. King Kong, this huge black orangutan, the absolute protagonist of the film, quickly appeared.
The effect is quite good.
After all, I spent a lot of money on special effects. Not only is the top-notch effect, but it is comparable to Hollywood monster movies.
"King Kong" is actually a bit different from other monster movies in terms of special effects.
The point of this different is that many monster movies actually focus more on the monster's body shape, its destructive power, and details, and more on the display of its body.
But "King Kong" is different. In fact, Wang Yifan is basically satisfied with "King Kong" filmed by Chen Shaojun so far, but the real essence of this movie "King Kong" has not yet reached its position.
