In special effects films, especially juvenile special effects films, you can make them very rough, and you can even make the special effects very clumsy. But one thing is very, very important!

That’s the key to the core of tokusatsu dramas!

That's the fight!

It doesn't mean that you can get it out just by having a hot head and working hard like a tiger.

It doesn’t mean that you are not good at it, so this step has been simplified!

The most critical point of special effects films, especially juvenile special effects films, is how the core props, or core toys, can produce various high-quality effects during the battle!

It will give people a very refreshing feedback!

This is the essence of shounen special effects films!

In fact, Peng Hui also knew why Xiao Si did what he did.

To put it bluntly, this drama is too rushed.

Forty million may seem like a lot at first glance, but it seems to be enough to film a special drama.

But is that really the case?

Xiao Si is a typical second-generation prodigal and rich man. He is a writer-turned-director.

His dramas are full of all kinds of money worship.

As a young person, or an adult, not everyone can avoid this kind of poisonous chicken soup, let alone children?

Originally this was nothing.

But the problem is, when this style is brought into special effects films, a very embarrassing problem will arise.

What's the problem?

The budget is not enough.

The armors of those so-called fire armor warriors seem to be of good workmanship, which is both a good thing and a bad thing.

As a core toy, it looks good. Of course it can make the toy more realistic and handsome, but...

It also improves the budget!

You know the total budget is 40 million. How much does this armor cost?

Peng Hui inquired about it and found out that it would cost 500,000 yuan at least!

There are five people in this fire armor team.

So that’s 2.5 million!

This does not include the villain's holster.

Taking everything into account, the non-pretend props that appear in this play are worth tens of millions!

At first glance it doesn’t seem like much, but Xiaosi’s budget for showing off is 20 million!

Yes, you heard it right, it’s 20 million!

In fact, Xiao Si is also quite aggrieved.

This is still a lot less money he spent.

Can't really blame him.

Since there are five people, it is reasonable for each person to have a villa, right?

Then he actually photographed the interiors of five villas...

The daily rent for a villa in Shanghai, where the filming took place, is about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and the average price is 25,000 yuan.

He shot it for forty days, which is 1 million.

Note, this is a room.

There are five rooms in total, which is five million.

And for filming, you always need some ancillary facilities, right?

If you have home appliances, you don't need to pay much attention to them, but what about luxury cars?

How can the rich second generation not drive a luxury car when they go out?

These five people equaled five cars, and Xiaosi also contributed three of them himself.

However, the rent for the remaining two cars is 50,000 yuan per day.

Because the brand name is very good.

This is one hundred thousand, which is four million in forty days.

That's nine million gone.

Then there are drinks and food.

These meticulous waiters even spent part of their own money.

The wine was brought from his house.

Vegetables, melons and other fruits are also very famous in the local area.

Plus some miscellaneous expenses...

There are also school rental fees.

Because it is an aristocratic school, if Xiao Si was not well-known, the school reduced the tuition fee by 90%, and 40 million would not be enough!

Not to mention the salary for composing music, styling, etc.

The clothing is even more sponsorable!

Although Xiao Si's films have a poor reputation, his films do have outstanding looks.

So for high-end brands, this sponsorship is not bad.

Of course, no money was given, only clothes were sponsored.

To be honest, Xiao Si really put a lot of effort into making this movie.

However……

All wrong!

A hot-blooded special feature film for teenagers, but it happened to be turned into a show-off film.

You will know how speechless this drama is.

So after watching the first episode and figuring out the routine, Peng Hui jumped right into the stage.

Who knows that Axiang also commented: "Although the movie is a bit bad, the costumes are really good."

Peng Hui rolled his eyes speechlessly and said nothing.

Then Jiangsu Channel was opened.

"Spread Your Wings and Fly High" by Zhang Li.

How to say...

Zhang Li actually had the same problem as Xiao Si.

What is this story like?

It is also a story about aliens invading the earth, and then heroes appear and fight off the aliens.

But the difference is that under the lens of director Zhang Li, the hero this time became a man.

Each time the man wore a tight suit and a windmill helmet on his head.

The windmill helmet has a very cool name.

Battle whirlwind.

The energy source of this windmill helmet is smile.

Yes, that's right, as long as you absorb enough smiles, a man can use his super powers to defeat aliens.

However, men happen to do all sorts of weird and nonsensical things in order to collect smiles, and these stories are also interspersed with some very thought-provoking stories.

For example, in the first episode of the story, when a monster is raging, a man appears in costume, punches and kicks the monster, then sprays out a laser, killing it instantly.

Does this look good?

good.

From Peng Hui's point of view, just this fight scene was shot very well.

But the problem is...

After filming this scene, the man had no time to deal with the alien monster and flew away when he saw other people surrounding him.

Then, coincidentally at the end of the first episode, there was a scene where a scientist began to study the monster's corpse.

In fact, this is a very normal setting.
