Chapter 85 "Firepower 2"
It's not that it's set up as a male protagonist and two female protagonists falling in love. It's two real female protagonists.
Group scenes are the most difficult to shoot, but fortunately for Peng Hui, it is not that difficult.
The filming started in early October, and by the end of December, just before Halloween, the filming was basically completed.
Now we are busy in post-production.
In fact, the real key to this drama is the special effects.
Special effects are a very special aspect of film and television production.
If you use it well, it will leave a lasting impression on you.
If used poorly, it will be in disgrace for thousands of years.
The budget is not large. Although there is a total budget of 20 million, the price of special effects is only 14 million.
This is already an extremely rare situation.
Baike's salary was only two million, which was a contract signed before.
Zhou Yawen's salary is higher because she is an artist of the Banana Project, so the price has reached 3 million.
The remaining number of other artists, including staff, is only one million.
Later, Peng Hui had to increase the budget by five million.
Twenty-five million budget.
This can ensure the smooth completion of the entire play.
Compared to the first part, which only took place in the school, the battle scene of the second part was set in the yo-yo battle in Xihong City.
Baike and others participated in the city-wide Yo-Yo competition.
To put it simply, the special effects have improved, the actors have become more beautiful, and there are more handsome men and beautiful women.
But the main thread still exists.
After Milly, played by Zhou Yawen, and Li Fei, played by Bai Ke, fought side by side in the first film, Milly developed a liking for Li Fei.
It's just because Li Fei is obsessed with yo-yo practice and ignores Milly.
At this time, Ouyang Lan, played by Liu Jinshui, unexpectedly appeared between the two.
Due to various misunderstandings, Millie turned evil and ran to the enemy team to become a foreign aid.
Finally, in the Xihong City Yo-Yo Competition, Li Fei and Ouyang Lan finally defeated their opponents with the help of their teammates.
Milly, who failed, left sadly.
But on the same bus going back, Li Fei also came along.
In fact, in the previous life, after "Fire Power 2", the actors who played Li Fei and the actor who played Milly left the show one after another.
The reason lies in blind confidence in oneself.
Although this drama was indeed very popular at the time, the existence of a tokusatsu drama itself did not require a particularly large demand for acting skills.
This also leads to blind self-confidence among many newcomers.
However, when they leave the tokusatsu drama, they will find that they are nothing.
Fortunately, Baike is a contracted artist, Ji Wei, the current boss of Banana Entertainment, has a good relationship with Peng Hui, and Zhou Yawen has his own masterpiece.
She also has a pretty good personality. She knows that she is nothing without "Fire Power", so she is still very obedient.
But nothing in this world can be perfect.
Many artists from the first film, especially newcomers, have resigned.
To this end, Peng Hui had to find a new group of people.
Fortunately, the male and female protagonists are still there, otherwise Peng Hui really wouldn't know what to do.
After the second season entered post-production, Peng Hui's work suddenly became much easier.
But this time Axiang didn't have time to spend time with Peng Hui.
She just accepted a dance variety show.
This is a reality show created by Mango Channel that pairs mainland and Hong Kong artists to perform dance performances together.
As a Xibe nationality, Axiang is naturally good at singing and dancing. She also likes this show very much and is a loyal audience of this show.
Now that this show is in its third season, Axiang has become well-known recently, so she just received the invitation.
In fact, Liu Jinshui had also received an invitation before.
However, murder cases occurred one after another, and Mango Terrace was afraid of trouble, so they left it alone.
To be honest, Peng Hui is personally unhappy.
After all, no one would be happy if their girlfriend was hugged and hugged by others.
But Axiang was willing, and it was work, and the Xiangjiang artist she partnered with had a good reputation in the industry, so Peng Hui couldn't say much.
It's just inevitable that I will feel a little depressed.
But fortunately, Peng Hui will forget all this once he starts working.
It's New Year's Day soon.
This year's Lunar New Year festival disappointed Peng Hui.
I originally thought I would see a very good drama, but it turned out to be a lot of bad movies.
In fact, Peng Hui also understands that although the movie box office in this world is higher than in the previous life, the average level of the entire Chinese film industry is only equivalent to the level in the previous life before 2008.
That is to say, all kinds of big scenes, mainly big productions.
Even if comedies and romantic dramas are released occasionally, the box office will not be too high.
Generally, the average box office is only around 4 to 5 billion.
Do you think this result is poor?
But it actually paid off.
But if you want to say that this score is good, it still feels a little bit worse.
Only later did Peng Hui realize that, to put it bluntly, the world is too "flat".
Because there is a crackdown on piracy, many directors can get good box office results with any of their films after they become famous.
Sound familiar?
That's right, it will be the same as it was 10 years later in the previous life.
But you must know that there is no piracy in this world.
Whether a movie is good or bad, if you want to watch it, you can only go to the cinema.
Or look for movie reviews online.
But you want to watch it with white female tickets?
Sorry, it's impossible.
This has led to many well-known directors making money casually. Although this makes it difficult to operate the next movie, they do occupy too much.
This has resulted in the quality of many movies being much worse.
Maybe this is the disadvantage of not having piracy.
In fact, if you think about it, when piracy was so rampant in the previous life, there was a situation where people believed in "great directors" for a long time, let alone now when there is no piracy?
If it were just that, it wouldn't make the world's movie box office so weird.
It's because many directors often make a good movie after making a bad movie, and the box office rises again.
It became Schrödinger's box office.
Under such circumstances, it is no wonder that the average box office is so low.
It belongs to that situation where the high is very high, but the low is also very low.
As a result, there was not even a single good movie in this year’s Lunar New Year movie.
It’s also frustrating enough.
Apart from the shit, it's just a lot of empty big scene production.
An investment of three to four billion is not enough. They all started with an investment of at least five hundred million!
But unfortunately, the box office of these movies is only two or three billion.
It was simply a loss of blood.
Fortunately, Peng Hui has no plans to enter the big screen for the time being, so he just feels comfortable being a spectator.
Chapter completed!
