The movie script Wang Xuan prepared for Chen Kai was "Farewell My Concubine".
This movie really needs no introduction. Whether it is artistic or ornamental, "Farewell My Concubine" is unique. While retaining the director's creative concept, it also takes into account the audience's aesthetic taste. It is an almost perfect classic movie.
As a flagship work in the Chinese film industry and a film that enjoys world-class honors, "Farewell My Concubine" has both epic structure and cultural connotation. Against the background of the profound Peking Opera art, it powerfully demonstrates the role dislocation and misalignment of people. Multifacetedness and richness in the face of disaster.
By describing the art of Peking Opera, which has the most profound cultural heritage in China, and the lives of Peking Opera artists, the film passionately narrates a story that lasts for half a century, and delicately demonstrates the thinking and understanding of traditional culture, people's living conditions and human nature. The joys and sorrows of little people are shown in a spiraling and corrective manner mixed with the development of Chinese history over the past half century. The power of humanity and the superb performances of the actors have conquered many moviegoers around the world.
The film was not only artistically recognized by the international film community, but also a success in distribution. The film sold well in Western countries such as the United States and even Eastern Europe and Africa.
If this movie is made, it will be a god in the director world. If the other party hadn't been Chen Kai, if Chen Kai hadn't helped Wang Xuan when he was at his lowest, or if Wang Xuan didn't have many movies that could make him a god, Wang Xuan would have really been reluctant to give up this movie. Leave it to Chen Kai to take the photo.
Let Chen Kai use this movie to make a comeback.
What's interesting is that in another time and space, Chen Kaige first filmed "Farewell My Concubine" to become a god. Later, he had a funny head and changed the character of Qin Shihuang to film "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin", which met with Waterloo. In this time and space, Chen Kai also had a difficult time filming "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin", but he was able to make a comeback while filming "Farewell My Concubine", which is like a reincarnation.
...
Under Wang Xuan's stimulation, Chen Kai's morale temporarily returned. Whether he can return to the confident Chen Kai before will depend on Chen Kai's next movie.
After appeasing Chen Kai, on the morning of the 24th, Wang Xuan and Chen Xueqi, together with several singers from Tianhai, boarded a plane to Lucheng, known as "Oriental Hawaii".
This year's annual music festival will be held in Lucheng.
In the evening, Wang Xuan and others checked into the Lucheng Seaside Hotel and booked all luxury suites. Today is definitely not a dangerous period for Chen Xueqi. Unfortunately, Chen Xueqi is too shy to share a room with Wang Xuan in front of so many people, which makes Wang Xuan lose this opportunity to go further.
On the other side, when Wang Xuan and others were heading to Lucheng, several young people suddenly came to the front desk of Tianhai, claiming that they had cooperation and wanted to discuss it in detail with the person in charge of Tianhai. But they didn't have any reservations. After some inquiries, the front desk dismissed them as usual and asked them to contact Tianhai's senior leaders.
These young people are not young at all. They are all in their late twenties. They are the founders of magic light effects in Hollywood. They were famous for Wang Xuan's "Descendants of the Dragon" years ago. I have thought about returning to my country for development, and I have just returned from Eagle Country.
After returning to China, they originally wanted to set up a special effects company, but after some investigation, they found that it was difficult to set up a special effects company by themselves. The location of the company was a problem.
Hua Country is different from Eagle Country. Eagle Country has a Hollywood Studios, where many famous film companies are gathered, and film and television-related supporting companies can also be directly located nearby. There is no decent film and television city in China, and entertainment companies are relatively scattered, making it difficult to choose locations.
I don’t have enough money to choose the center of a big city. If you choose a remote area or a small city, and your reputation is not good enough, you will not be able to receive orders.
Dilemma!
Later, a few people simply split up and visited large domestic entertainment companies one by one. They wanted to discuss cooperation first and see if the large entertainment companies had any films and TV series that required special effects production. They would take over the business first and make some money to become famous.
As a result, everyone was rejected. Once people heard that they were here to promote special effects, they lost all interest.
Several people also know the reason. Large entertainment companies generally have special effects departments, and even small and medium-sized entertainment companies have fixed special effects companies for long-term cooperation. Although they are confident that their special effects technology is enough to beat any domestic special effects company and special effects team. , but people won’t even give you a chance, so what’s the use of your special effects skills no matter how awesome they are?
This was a blow to several people, and their morale was almost gone. I was full of confidence before returning to China, but now I find that it is even more difficult to get along in China than in Hollywood.
Later, several people thought of Wang Xuan, who sang "Descendants of the Dragon". After some searching, they found that Wang Xuan was not only a top domestic superstar, but also owned a Tianhai Entertainment company.
So a few people decided to come to Tianhai to try their luck.
But now, they encountered a rejection again. The front desk asked them to contact Tianhai's senior management, but how could they have the contact information of Tianhai's senior management?
Just when they were about to give up, perhaps seeing that they were a little downcast and couldn't bear it, Tianhai's front desk whispered again: "I would like to ask, what kind of cooperation do you want to discuss with our Tianhai?"
"Cooperation in the production of special effects for film and television dramas."
"Special effects? How are your special effects skills?" Tianhai's front desk asked with her eyes lit up. She knew that Tianhai didn't have a decent special effects team yet. If the special effects skills of these people in front of them were passable, it wouldn't be impossible to help report them.
"We all graduated from the Apple City Film Academy, majoring in film and television special effects. We previously opened a special effects company in American Hollywood, and have also taken on the special effects production of several American Hollywood movies. We can't say that our technology is unique to American Hollywood. , but it is definitely not a problem to defeat most domestic special effects production companies." said the leader.
Tianhai's eyes lit up even more when he heard this. Apple City Film Academy is one of the top five arts exporters in the world, and American Hollywood's special effects are even more famous around the world. It cannot be ruled out that these people in front of me are bragging, but if they can gain a foothold in American Hollywood, these people's special effects skills should be inferior. Not going anywhere.
"In this case, you guys sit on the sofa in the living room, and I will make an exception to inform you."
"OK."
The lady at the front desk reported it. Soon, Li Tao came to the front desk in person. Seeing how young and dusty the people in front of him were, Li Tao was a little skeptical of their special effects technology.
"Hello, I am Li Tao, the head of the Tianhai Artist Department. What are your names?" Li Tao asked.
"Hello, Mr. Li, I am Tang Yue. The person next to me is Zhou Hong, he is He Weiwei, and he is Su Liyun." Tang Yue introduced on behalf of several people.
"I heard from our front desk lady that you specialize in special effects for film and television. You stayed in Hollywood for a while before. May I ask why you are no longer in Hollywood now?"
"We went to study abroad in Eagle Country when we were in high school. Later, because of our interest, we were admitted to the Apple City Film Academy. We both enrolled in the film and television special effects major. We were destined to be in the same class. After graduation, we were like-minded. However, the domestic film and television market was lagging behind at that time. , we set up a special effects company near Hollywood. But in recent years, hasn’t our domestic film market developed? So a few of us returned to China to contribute to our Chinese films." Tang Yue said, this That's half true.
It was true that he wanted to study abroad and jointly establish a special effects company, but the reason for returning to China was half-true and half-false, not as high-minded as Tang Yue said.
Why contribute to Chinese movies? It's just because a few people couldn't get orders in American Hollywood and saw the rapid development in China, they thought of returning to China for development.
Li Tao nodded when he heard this, but he didn't fully believe Tang Yue's words. After all, it was the first time they met, so why should someone care about you? In fact, Li Tao is not interested at all in why these people returned to China. He is only interested in their special effects technology.
So he asked: "I heard from our front desk lady that your special effects technology is pretty good. Can you show it to me?"
"certainly."
Several people moved to Tianhai's special effects department.
Yes, Tianhai actually has a special effects department, but it just doesn’t have much talent. The previous special effects team was packed away by Enlight Media.
The reason why Wang Xuan hasn't filmed TV series such as "Dragon" and "Sword" is because these TV series require special effects, and Tianhai currently does not have a special effects team that is good at it, so it can only delay it again and again.
After arriving at the special effects department, Tang Yue and the others inserted the USB flash drive they carried with them into Tianhai's computer, then copied the special effects software installation package on the USB flash drive to the computer desktop and installed it.
"Is this Houdini?" Li Tao asked.
"Yes." Tang Yue replied without raising his head.
After hearing this, Li Tao gained some confidence in the special effects skills of several people.
Houdini is a special effects software called Movie Special Effects Magician in China. It belongs to Side
Effects
’s flagship product, an effective tool for creating advanced visual effects.
Nowadays, the special effects of every American and Hollywood blockbuster seen in China are produced by Houdini. It is one of the most widely used film special effects software, and it is also a difficult software to learn. Houdini
Master also provides unprecedented capabilities and productivity for animators who want to make computer animation more exciting.
Since Tang Yue and others use Houdini, their special effects skills must not be much different.

The monthly ticket was far behind 1,000. I was so shocked that Zhang Zhang actually received 100 monthly tickets. However, I am still grateful to many book friends for their support. If you can’t reach 1,000 this month, then continue working hard next month.
