Song Hao immediately presented the script of "The Wandering Earth" to Director Chen of the Space Administration.
When Director Chen got the script of The Wandering Earth.
He looked at it immediately, and it wasn't until an hour and a half later that he finally came to his senses.
He looked at Song Hao and said, "Although I don't know what the script of your movie should be like, from the content of the story, I already feel that this story is very well written."
Director Chen then said: "Otherwise, I will find a very experienced expert from the Publicity Department of our space agency to come over and take a look!"
Not long after, he made a call: "Hey, Lao Yu, come here, I have something good for you to see."
Just like that, a little old man wearing glasses appeared at the door of the office.
"Lao Yu, come and take a look." Director Chen immediately handed the script to Lao Yu and introduced: "This is Director Song."
"This one is our veteran expert in publicity. Basically, he edited and played the structure of some aerospace pictures."
After hearing this, Lao Yu waved his hands and said with a smile: "I'm just a handyman doing odd jobs. Those are all done by young people in the bureau. They have nothing to do with me. I'm just saying a few words on the side."
Then someone opened the script and he was immediately attracted by the content.
At the beginning of the script, the blue planet is observed in the universe. In the design, the territory of China can be seen.
Then, the second act switches to the sea.
Then an image of Jupiter appeared on the computer monitor.
At first, Lao Yu didn't know the details of this structure.
Later, after reading the entire script, he realized that the content of the initial scenes was all metaphorical.
The image of Jupiter illustrates the theme of this article.
A story about Earth and Jupiter is about to unfold.
The protagonist Liu Peiqiang accompanied his son to observe the stars at the beach.
In the setting of the script here, the camera switches to a panoramic view to introduce the spatial environment.
There was a figure next to him, looking at the father and son quietly.
In the script setting, the huge planetary engine in the distance is clearly visible, which will also make future audiences curious.
Liu Peiqiang tells his son the story of Jupiter.
When it comes to Jupiter being all hydrogen, the camera is kept low.
Seeing this, Lao Yu said in amazement: "You want to use a telephoto lens to compress the space, so that the bonfire and balloons, which were originally a little far away, are superimposed on the screen. In this way, you want to hint to the audience that the plot of igniting Jupiter is right. ?"
"Teacher Yu is amazing." Song Hao nodded.
Lao Yu looked at the script in his hand, becoming more and more happy as he read it.
He even said excitedly: "This story is good, very good."
Director Chen felt relieved when he saw Lao Yu praising him like this: "That's good. I also think this story is very good. I didn't expect Xiao Song to come up with such a good script."
Song Hao said with a smile: "Actually, I also want to take pictures of Nantianmen and space shuttles on the Internet, but I don't have a general idea in my mind."
"Hahahaha." Director Chen said cheerfully after hearing this: "Nantianmen and everything are just speculations by netizens. There is no such thing as Nantianmen."
Lao Yu also echoed: "Yes, yes, actually, we don't have any Nantianmen, but yours is really good. What's the name of this script?"
"'The Wandering Earth'." Song Hao explained.
"How long does it take to shoot?" Lao Yu asked.
Song Hao thought for a while and replied: "About half a year or more, there will be more special effects in the later stage. Next year it will be about eight months later."
Lao Yu thought for a while and replied: "In that case, it is very likely that this drama will be released in the Lunar New Year movie."
"If you have time, it should be possible."
"That's good!" Lao Yu then looked at Director Chen: "Director Chen, if you need me then, I can do my part."
"That's naturally the best." Director Chen said happily.
You know, Lao Yu is not just an expert in the Publicity Department, but a scientist with very rich aerospace knowledge.
All kinds of theories are at your fingertips.
If Lao Yu was in charge of this drama, he would feel more at ease.
Therefore, Director Chen immediately decided: "Then we will fully cooperate with Director Xiao Song in filming "The Wandering Earth"."
Then he asked: "Why do I feel like I didn't finish the entire story of this movie?"
Song Hao smiled: "Indeed, this one is a series. If the response of the subsequent movies is better, we can continue to arrange the second and third movies."
"Very good, let's make it up then." Director Chen obviously couldn't wait. He wanted to see what kind of film it would be when the Lunar New Year movie is released this year.
The script of "The Wandering Earth" has been reviewed and approved.
The space agency will also fully cooperate with Song Hao in preparing props.
Of course, the props mentioned cannot be flying in the sky.
But they need to create a 1:1 restored simulated space station.
Because the male protagonist has a lot of scenes in the space station.
If all green cloth special effects are used, the quality will naturally not be acceptable.
In addition, when filming "Captain of China", the simulator used was very good.
Originally, Song Hao planned to contact the Director of the Civil Aviation Administration.
After all, last time, the Board of Directors asked the aircraft manufacturer in Chang'an to make a simulator.
Now he also wants the Board of Directors to help him create a simulated space to stand out.
Unexpectedly, Lao Yu said directly: "We don't need the Civil Aviation Administration of China. Can't our space agency do it ourselves? And to simulate the space station, we have model machines before. Don't worry, I will give you all the questions on these props." It’s covered.”
Song Hao didn't expect that Lao Yu was missing the point.
It seems that he should be an old expert who has been deeply involved in the space agency.
Now that there is the guarantee from the old expert, there is no pressure on Song Hao's side.
While waiting, he quickly wrote the script of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World".
During this period, Song Hao asked Zhang Xianfu to contact about 20 domestic animation special effects companies.
When those special effects companies learned that Guo Teng Media was about to produce a completed film with 80% of the special effects shots, they were all surprised.
You know, what is the concept of reaching 80% of special effects shots.
This means that the cost of this movie alone will cost tens of millions.
This does not include subsequent publicity costs.
In the end, even if you say less, you will have to achieve a small goal.
However, Guoteng Media seems to have the courage to not care about the so-called cost, but to strive to create a truly good movie.
This is also the film concept of Song Hao, the boss of Guoteng Media.
And these special effects companies are naturally very excited.
The year before last, "Chang'an 30,000 Miles" was released and immediately became a hit in the entire Chinese market.
It also brings a lot of fresh blood to the subject matter of the upcoming animated movies.
As a special effects company for animation, they naturally benefit from this.
Therefore, now Guoteng Media wants to produce an animated film with full special effects. As a domestic special effects company, they must support it to the end.
After all, Song Hao did not choose those well-known foreign special effects companies, but instead believed in China.
This trust is worthy of their serious efforts.
When Song Hao was creating "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World", the animation production department also became curious.
"What kind of story will Mr. Song give us this time?"
"I don't know. I always feel that it should be a very good story subject."
"I'm afraid that it will be too difficult to understand Mr. Song's ideas and thinking. If we don't create well, we will be scolded."
"It doesn't matter. When have you ever seen Mr. Song scolding someone? As long as we work hard, it will be fine. We were able to succeed last time, and we will definitely be able to do it this time."
Just when the guys were discussing.
After a week of retreat, Song Hao finally wrote "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World".
It can be said that he has been exhausted these days.
After writing two masterpieces in succession, he almost had the idea of retiring and lying down.
However, he does feel that now he has to gradually let go of some film and television creations.
We must trust our directors and artists.
At that time, the scripts exchanged will be arranged by the directors under the company.
As a supervisor and producer, I just need to supervise from time to time.
Soon, Song Hao showed the script of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" to the people in the animation department.
At first everyone was very excited.
"What story?"
"Let me see."
"Come on, let me take a look."
When they learned that it was an animated story with Nezha as the protagonist, they were a little confused.
After all, Nezha has always appeared as a protagonist or supporting character since the beginning of animation.
It's not that Nezha has a bad image, but... there are too many of them.
If the content is not outstanding and mediocre, it will be difficult for the audience to buy it.
But no one said anything.
Instead, he looked at the script in his hand.
Because for such a long time, they all know that Song Hao's scripts are anything but vulgar!
Sure enough, they all began to watch seriously, and the voices of talking and discussion became less and less.
The more they looked, the more surprised they became.
This content? !
This plot! !
It's another Nezha story entirely.
Halfway through, Zhang Xianfu was even more excited and said: "This story!! It's so awesome!!"
He raised his head and looked at Song Hao, and even had the urge to kiss him.
Song Hao said happily: "Don't be anxious, just read it first."
Zhang Xianfu controlled his emotions, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll finish reading."
He immediately continued watching.
Soon, everyone had finished reading.
Zhang Xianfu and others looked at the setting of Nezha's image in Song Hao's script, and felt emotional in their hearts.
"If we make Nezha according to this setting, I guess the first reaction of the movie audience will be: Nezha is too ugly."
"It's okay to think it's ugly, because what we're talking about is breaking prejudices. Just like many people stop watching it when they see it's a Chinese comic; or if they watch it and think it's good, they automatically deduct 20 points."
"Yes, in the movie, it is correct to scold Nezha. As long as you say Nezha is a monster, people will follow suit;
Apart from movies, it has become correct to criticize domestic films and Chinese comics. As long as you criticize it, someone will give you a thumbs up. "
One of the girls in the department explained: "Actually, Nezha is not a monster. He also wants to slay demons and clear his reputation. He wants to prove it, just like our Chinese comics are not all bad movies. Some people also want to make a masterpiece. prove yourself."
Song Hao then told everyone: "This finished film has many special effects shots, but I hope you can use your own hands to create the special effects for the Landscape Map."
Because Song Hao knew that the scene of the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Map was truly unimaginable and shocking. It materialized objects that once only existed in imagination, and also vividly demonstrated the infinite imagination of Chinese mythology.
"If you can create this scene, it will be a visual feast for everyone."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the animation production department present became excited.
"no problem!!"
"Don't worry, Director Song, we will definitely be able to create a perfect map of mountains, rivers, and the country!!"
"We have to work hard (˙o˙)!!"
"come on!!"
Song Hao looked at everyone and saw that they were not afraid. He was very relieved for a moment: "Okay, then from now on, the "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" project will officially begin!"
"come on!!"
…
The projects of "The Wandering Earth" and "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" were officially launched together, making Guoteng Media busy.
And on the Internet.
Everyone also began to discuss Song Hao's next plan.
"Didn't Director Song say he wanted to make a trilogy of science fiction films?"
"Yeah, will the next movie be in a science fiction series?"
"I'm really looking forward to it, but a large-scale science fiction movie like this will take a year or two to shoot, right?"
"I will watch whatever Director Song shoots."
"Yes! I absolutely support Director Song!"
While everyone was discussing Song Hao's subsequent creative plans, someone broke the news that Guo Teng Media was going to produce a large-scale animated film.
As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a sensation among everyone.
"What, didn't you say you wanted to make a science fiction movie?"
"Yes, I remember Director Song said he was going to make a science fiction trilogy!"
“Did a science fiction trilogy become an animated movie?”
"In the past two years, since "Thirty Thousand Miles from Chang'an" came out, there seem to be some good quality animated films."
"But I still think that "Chang'an 30,000 Miles" is the pinnacle of Chinese comics. Even Director Song will have a hard time regaining his peak, right?"
"I don't know if I will return to my peak again. I just want to say that if Director Song can make a movie with the quality of "Chang'an 30,000 Miles", I will be able to accept it."
For a while, everyone was discussing.
They were all waiting for Song Hao's answer.
However, before Song Hao's official response, the official answer from the space agency came.
[The space agency will officially work with Guoteng Media to produce an aerospace series of science fiction movies. Please stay tuned. 】
As soon as the news came out, netizens also exploded.
"Let me go, Song Hao's cooperation departments are more advanced than the last, they are all already in the space agency!"
“Space agency’s sci-fi movie!! Love it!!”
"Is it true? It would be very difficult to shoot this in space!"
"You have to believe in Director Song. Disaster-themed movies that were so difficult to make in the past can be made so well."
"Yes, you must definitely trust Director Song!"
"Hey, that's strange. Someone broke the news before that Guoteng Media is going to produce a large-scale animated movie. So what's going on?"
"That must be bragging!"
"Damn it, you made me so nervous!"
"Let's go spray him to death!"
Just like that, a group of netizens went to the original owner's comments to complain.
"You have to believe me!!"
"Director Song is really going to make a big movie, I'm not going to lie to you!! This is reliable news!!"
The person who broke the news is still trying his best to explain.
But no one believed it.
"You have to brag."
"I shouldn't believe you!"
"I'm laughing so hard! You're still explaining it!"
Just when everyone thought that the whistleblower was just bragging, Song Hao and Guoteng Media also released the latest news.
[Guoteng Media Animation Production is about to produce a large-scale animated film. The excitement will definitely exceed your imagination. Please stay tuned! ! 】
After this official news came out, everyone believed that what the whistleblower said was true.
"Holy shit!! It turns out it's true!!"
“I really want to make an animated movie!!”
"It's cool, that means we are creating two movies at the same time!!"
"In this case, when will it be released?!"
After the whistleblower learned that people from Guoteng Media had released the news, he went to the trolls one by one to reason.
"Fucking apologize(>﹏<)!"
"You apologize to me, my revelation was right!"
“Hurry up and apologize to me!!!”
However, these trolls seemed to disappear and did not respond to the whistleblower.
Suddenly, the news that Song Hao was going to create two movies spread all over the Internet.
At the same time, it also directly became a hot search.
At this time, everyone is also very curious, that is, what kind of science fiction movie Song Hao wants to create, and what type of animation creation.
Song Hao is not in a hurry to prepare for the filming of "The Wandering Earth".
After all, it will take some time before the simulated space station can be restored to its appearance in "The Wandering Earth".
So after Song Hao handed over the script of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" to Zhang Xianfu and others, he began to direct and produce it.
At first, Zhang Xianfu and others drew the character of Nezha.
Zhang Xianfu already felt that the character of Nezha was special enough.
But Song Hao put forward his own ideas.
"Nezha's eyes could use some dark circles."
"And you also need to have a bit of a free-spirited personality."
"There is still disdain in the eyes."
From the first draft to when Song Hao thought Nezha's character image was finalized, there were hundreds of changes.
It wasn't until the Nezha in front of him turned out to be the original version that Song Hao said with satisfaction: "This is it."
When everyone saw this image of Nezha, they all gasped.
Because the Nezha in front of him completely subverted the previous image.
But Song Hao firmly believes that there is no problem with this role.
Soon, the image of Nezha's makeup appeared.
During this period, many netizens were also curious.
"Do you have any posters or trailer videos? Send them out quickly and take a look."
"Quick, quick, report the progress!!"
"Yes, where are we now? Tell us quickly."
In order to meet everyone's expectations, Song Hao asked the animation production department to produce a picture of Nezha's character.
But after this picture was posted, netizens were confused.
? ? ? You...you call this Nezha? !
Asking for a monthly ticket! !
