This Emperor is Only An Actor

"Speaking of Xianxia movies, I actually made one before, "Legend of Shushan". Do you have any impression?"

Xu Ke's question was enthusiastically responded by the students present.

A male classmate stood up and said something that many people on the Internet sighed with emotion: "I thought "Legend of Shushan" was the beginning of domestic fairy tale movies, but I didn't expect it to be the pinnacle of domestic fairy tale movies."

Over the years, many movie fans have regretted this incident

Xu Ke himself felt very sorry.

But he saw it very clearly: "After "The Legend of Shu Mountain" was released, the evaluation became higher and higher, but at that time the box office was a disastrous failure, so the market no longer had confidence in Xianxia movies. If the audience didn't buy it, the capital would be lost." I will buy it. If the capital does not buy it, the genre of Xianxia movies will not rise. So after so many years, I dare not touch Xianxia movies again.”

He, the director who likes to play special effects the most in the whole country, came to shoot martial arts movies. Didn't Xu Ke himself know that special effects are more important in making fairy movies?

He also understands.

I just didn't dare to shoot.

Even if he dared to shoot, he couldn't find anyone to invest in him.

Yue Guan smiled: "If the box office of "Red Training" and the subsequent "Swordsman" movie version can meet expectations, Director Xu, we can cooperate with a fairy tale movie to test the waters."

In China, Xu Ke is really the most trustworthy when making Xianxia movies.

Xu Ke's problem is that he is good at playing technology, but he can't control the plot, and always makes the plot serve the special effects.

So in terms of plot, someone needs to be able to suppress him.

If Xu Ke is willing to cooperate, Yue Guan doesn't mind cooperating with him.

Of course, if Xu Ke insisted on putting himself first, then Yue Guan wouldn't stick to his cold ass.

It is not easy to find three-legged toads, but there are plenty of directors with two legs.

Xu Ke didn't think too much about it, he thought Yue Guan was being polite to him, so he readily agreed: "I'm looking forward to it."

"Brother Yue, in your eyes, what do martial arts movies mean to domestic movies? Is it a breakthrough and a place of hope?" A student raised his hand and asked.

Yue Guan thought for a while, and decided to tell the truth: "It means characteristics, just like Director Xu said, this is a unique culture of our country, and there must be some audiences who like it, but it can't be called a domestic movie. Hope and the future. Domestic films want to become bigger and stronger. In my opinion, there are only two genres that can take on this task, namely science fiction films and fairy tale films. That is a big meal, and martial arts can only be regarded as special dishes. But special dishes For many people, it may be more palatable than a big meal."

"Has Senior Brother Yue thought about making the martial arts theme bigger and stronger?"

Yue Guan smiled lightly and said, "I've been doing this all the time. I won't boast about how much the three novels "The Legend of Condor Heroes", "The Legend of the Heaven and Slaying the Dragon", and "Swordsman" have contributed to the revival of martial arts novels. The three novels were originally intended to be made into TV dramas. I was the one who decided to set up separate film projects for Li Mochou and Guo Xiang. Later, I planned to shoot the solo film projects of Yue Buqun and Dongfang Bubai. Without me, Wuxia may be dead in this day and age."

What Yue Guan said was really not boasting.

At this time in the previous life, the martial arts theme was already dead, the transparent kind.

Although Jin Yong's TV dramas have been remade many times, they basically revolve around the protagonist, and rarely shoot around supporting roles, let alone develop other forms.

Although it was difficult for Yue Guan to change the general trend of martial arts, he still tried his best to delay the decline of martial arts.

As for leading the martial arts theme to glory, this is really unrealistic.

To put it bluntly, the modern network is too developed, and people's imagination is too developed.

Fighting chivalry, fighting for righteousness, Huashan discussing swords, etc., have gradually fallen behind in this era.

Only the magnificent sci-fi blockbusters and the fairy-tale blockbusters full of gods and Buddhas can stimulate the audience's adrenaline more.

This is the same as the ratings of TV stations have entered the era of doomsday. The decline of martial arts themes is also the trend of the times, and it is not a crime of war.

"If the project "Chi Lian" is a big hit, will it have a positive impact on the martial arts theme?"

"Of course, if "Red Training" can be popular, there will definitely be more martial arts movie projects approved. This is beyond doubt. Capital only chases successful people."

"Brother Yue, are you optimistic that "Red Training" will explode?"

"I'm not a god, how do I know if "Red Training" will be a hit, but I am optimistic that "Red Training" will at least not lose money. We have done a professional evaluation before, and the box office of "Red Training" should reach about 200 million."

That's already amazing.

Tang Yan said personally that if the box office of "Chi Lian" can exceed 200 million, she can give Yue Guan a night, as long as it is the two of them, Yue Guan can come wherever he wants.

That's how powerful it is.

In this day and age, among the major heroine films, none of them can earn 200 million at the box office.

Tang Yan did it, and she is the number one of the new generation Xiaohuadan in terms of movie box office.

Of course, she may not be able to sit for a long time as the first person.

Yang Mi's "Guo Xiang" is also on the way.

Not surprisingly, Liu Yifei's "Pure Mind Chasing Dreams of Peaceful Wheel" will definitely surpass "Red Training" at the box office. Even though this movie cannot be regarded as Liu Yifei's main box office, she is undoubtedly the heroine. If the movie is successful, it will naturally have a great bonus for the protagonist.

Even so, Tang Yan is still looking forward to it.

"Brother Yue, I have had a martial arts dream since I was a child, and I really want to write martial arts novels like you. May I ask how I should start writing."

Yue Guan looked at this male classmate who stared at him expectantly. Although he really wanted to pour chicken soup on him, his conscience still made him tell the truth: "How is your family?"

"Um, average."

"Then honestly find a job first, take writing as your hobby, and don't try to make a living from it. On this basis, you can write a tens of thousands of words at the beginning of the five-star Chinese website, if If you can successfully sign the contract, you can continue your literary dream. Otherwise, you should keep your feet on the ground. Brother, brother is an experienced person, and has seen many examples of being drowned by dreams. Believe me, not everyone is as talented as me. "

Yue Guan boasted naturally, but it didn't disgust the people present.

After all, only Yueguan himself knows that he is cheating. In the eyes of the world, Yueguan's reputation as a talented scholar is solid.

The male student who asked the question was not disappointed either. Yue Guan's answer just showed that Yue Guan was responsible for him.

Students who can be admitted to Dragon City University will have no problem with their basic IQ.

"Brother, do you think there is still hope for writing martial arts novels in the future? Can you gain both fame and fortune like you?"

This classmate did not shy away from talking about money.

Yue Guan also didn't dislike the vulgarity of students from famous schools who talk about money like Ao Dasong.

What do people live for if they don't seek fame and fortune?

Students from prestigious schools can't talk about money?

It doesn't hurt my back to stand and talk.

Not everyone has a family background like short and tight.

The classmate asked very honestly, and Yue Guan answered very honestly: "It's difficult, because nowadays readers prefer to read fairy tale fantasy science fiction novels. After all, the style of martial arts novels is a little lower, unless your martial arts novels are good. To a certain extent, it can make people ignore the inherent limitations of martial arts themes."
