Chapter 35 Declaration
Xu Hui was first known to the public because of his singer image.
Including his return to China to develop, the one he talked about most was not his two movies, but the ep, 6 songs, which created a record. Not only in terms of sales, the cumulative sales have exceeded one million, but the auditions for each song have exceeded 60 million!
The song "In My Singing" has created nearly 900 million auditions!
He directly left "Blue and White Porcelain" second.
There is no doubt that this is a classic ep!
In the second-rate era, first-class ep was born!
Many people have compared Xu Hui and Zhou Jielun.
Unfortunately, since then, Xu Hui has never shown any sign of releasing a new song, and at most he sang it in a movie directed or produced by him.
After having Weibo, countless fans of Xu Hui signed in every day. I hope Xu Hui will release a new album as soon as possible...
...
"…Sing? I will definitely sing again. Actually, I have written a few songs recently. In addition, I want to cover songs from a few seniors. Adding one piece is enough for an album. However, I have never been able to spend time recording songs. Let's wait for the past few months..."
After saying this, Xu Hui continued: "Actually, it is quite sad to make music in China. There are many young people who have music dreams and are ambitious about music. Their popularity is far less than that of idols produced by the Korean assembly line. I have talked to Mr. Liu before, and he said that Chinese music is currently at the bottom of the world music scene, and I agree deeply!"
"The bottom layer?"
"…No musician in the world cares about lyrics as much as we do in pop music. You can also see that in recent years, even since there have been pop songs, the songs that are popular are generally because of the good lyrics written and there are few melody progress."
"Of course, Zhou Jielun is an alternative, he is a genius!"
Seeing what the reporter wanted to say, Xu Hui added.
"Haha, it seems that Director Xu is a fan of Zhou Jielun!"
"…Well, I think Zhou Jielun is the last flag in the Chinese music scene. If this flag falls, it is hard to imagine if anyone else can stand up."
"Director Xu, can you ask you a private question?"
Seeing Xu Hui nodding, Wang Xiaofeng continued: "I heard that Zhejiang Satellite TV invited you to participate in "I Am a Singer", but you refused, why?"
"I announced to the public that I don't have time. In fact, there will always be time. I'm still a little scared. Don't laugh. I'm really scared. Think about it, my popularity is so high. If I don't perform well, what should I do if I lose my fans? Even if I perform well, someone will pick on me and say something like that..."
"Will you go on "I Am a Singer" later? Many viewers are particularly looking forward to meeting you and Zhou Jielun on a stage like "I Am a Singer"..."
"…I am comparing my singing skills with Zhou Jielun?"
"Netizens vote spontaneously..."
"Okay, as long as Zhou Jielun is fine, I will have no problem!"
Jay Chou probably won’t bow his waist for five dollars of rice…
...
"Talk about movies, what type of movie do you like?"
"I basically watch any type of movie, suspense, drama, action, and romance movies, but I haven't had much time to watch movies in recent years, so I'm too busy..."
"Have you watched "Avatar"?"
"Of course, it's so popular, I took my parents to watch it."
"Do you think the future will be the world of 3D movies?"
"Of course, blockbusters, especially science fiction films, will have much better results! If it is a movie with more night scenes, it is best not to make them into 3D mode, because when shooting with a 3D camera, it will unconsciously reduce the brightness and blur the portrait..."
Xu Hui has a certain understanding of 3D shooting technology.
He once worked as an assistant director in a domestic 3D film crew and experienced 3D shooting.
"There are already directors in China who have decided to make 3D movies. Do you have any plans for this?"
"At the end of the year, I might shoot a martial arts film that is very suitable for 3D lenses. It's better to look at the cost. If the cost is too high, I can't bear to invest a lot!"
Paohui still couldn't fly like the old monster Xu.
Maybe my mentality is different, and the old monster is not squandering his own money...
"When it comes to film investment, your latest work "Huang Feihong" is definitely a big investment!"
"Of course, the production cost of 140 million yuan, plus promotion and promotion, is definitely the largest cost movie I have ever directed..."
Wang Xiaofeng's eyes showed a hint of surprise, but his heart was full of contempt.
‘What’s the point of 200 million, it’s good to have 100 million!’
In his opinion, all domestic blockbusters have the same virtue, first attracting a bunch of stars and then attracting a bunch of investment, as for what they are filming.
Is it important to take what is filmed?
Isn’t the audience just watching the celebrity’s face?
Xu Hui still talked: "...In fact, the salary of actors is not much, and it accounts for less than 15% of the total investment at most. It is mainly spent on post-production and props. After all, it takes a lot of engineering to reproduce China in the mid-19th century."
"Did you build a new building?"
"Well, this is not the case. The current post-production can completely satisfy many aspects of my expectations. It is no longer the era when a city had to be built in order to make a movie."
"…It seems like I was looking for a domestic special effects company in the later stage of this drama?"
"Yes, it's a relatively new special effects company. In fact, there is a misunderstanding here. It's not that the domestic special effects technology is worse than that of foreign countries. For example, the base fx we cooperated with this time, their entire team worked in Hollywood before..."
“Is it because of the equipment?”
Wang Xiaofeng has been trying to interrupt...
"No, the equipment we use is the best equipment in the world, and many Hollywood special effects teams may not be able to use such good equipment!"
“…Then according to your opinion, there is no problem with people and equipment. So why does our special effects look so... so embarrassing?”
"The cycle is too short. Special effects rendering is a special job of trying to get some time. My MV of "Wukong" took almost a month to render the special effects in three minutes! This time, the person in charge of base fx has been following up since the script creation. The entire special effects cycle is about 18 months. In terms of time, we are enough. Some domestic crews completely disrespect the length of special effects and try hard to lower the cycle. What should I do? I can only make shoddy products! So, many people say that the 50-cent special effects..."
"I saw what you said in public before, and it seemed like I wanted to make "Huang Feihong" a series?"
"Um."
Xu Hui took a sip of tea: "In the mid-19th century, it was when the Qing Dynasty was opened by an empire with strong ships and powerful guns. There were too many things that could be depicted in that era. The character "Huang Feihong" is indeed a person in history. He is a celebrity in Foshan, with both fists and feet, and is known as the Lion King of Guangdong and Guangxi."
"Of course, in the movie, his image is definitely more than an ordinary Chinese. I want to give him the characteristics that both old and new cultures have. He was xenophobic at the beginning, but later he began to accept things from abroad..."
"I hope that the character 'Huang Feihong' can become a new business card for Chinese films!"
