On the day before Christmas, other senior executives of DreamWorks arrived at China with the prepared contract, preparing for a formal signing ceremony with Li Mu. The cooperation between DreamWorks and Muye Pictures officially opened the China film industry and Hollywood in-depth cooperation. First.
The entire DreamWorks takes this cooperation very seriously. They and Li Mu each take what they need. They want to increase their influence in the North American film industry with Muying Ticketing system, and Li Mu hopes that DreamWorks and Spielberg It can not only promote the ancestor of China, but also improve the overall level of China movies.
For this signing, Li Mu summoned Ning Hao, Teng Huatao and Tang Wei, Huang Bo, Zhang Kexuan, and Du Wei to Shenzhen. Before signing the contract, I talked with several big players including DreamWorks, including Spielberg.
This detailed discussion is arranged in the banquet hall of a five-star hotel in Shenzhen. although will hold a signing ceremony here tomorrow, but today ’s meeting is not open to the outside world and the media.
For Ning Hao and Teng Huatao, both of them are new directors. The box office of although "You Are the Apple of My Eye" has reached 400 million, and the history of China movie box office has been continuously created, but Teng Huatao is still very humble, because he is very clear in his heart. The reason why the box office of this movie is so high is that 40% comes from the story itself, 30% comes from promotion and promotion, 20% comes from the cast, and it is already very good that it can account for 10% of the influence.
Ning Hao "Crazy Stone" has not yet been released. Right now it is a newcomer director who is newer than Teng Huatao, so it is also more humble and cautious.
The big guys in DreamWorks, especially Spielberg, have to say that the money may not really be much, but to say that the influence in the film and television industry is absolutely world-class, for Ning Hao and Teng Huatao The two felt like they were the second-rate domestic club players who met Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and other big brothers, excited and humble.
In this interview, Li Mu put forward relatively specific requirements for DreamWorks: "First of all, in the future, the movies jointly cast by the two parties in China must be enabled by actors of Muye Pictures, and the proportion of important actors in China and the West is about 5: 5; "
Dreammen of DreamWorks immediately stated: "If there is no problem, just follow 5: 5. If you have a special theme, you can give China actors more tilt."
Li Mu also put forward other requirements: "In exchange, the films that DreamWorks cast in the United States and other parts of the world, from the crew to the cast, must give Muye Pictures a certain guaranteed quota, Muye Pictures has the right to dream DreamWorks in the future. In each live-action movie, there are no more than two Chinese actors and no more than two crew members. "
This requirement is on the one hand for the production team and actor team of Muye Pictures to learn the experience of Hollywood, and on the other hand is to help the actors of Muye Pictures to enter Hollywood. Li Mu knows the awesome of the China film and television industry's export to domestic sales. The actor paid zero film to go to Hollywood to participate in a movie. After returning to China, he can become a first-line or even a super-first-line.
Dream Factory has no bargaining on these requirements of Li Mu's, and it is fully accepted according to the order. The only goal is Muding Ticketing system. As long as Li Mu does not propose to reduce their share of shares, they will definitely not make any comments on Li Mu's requirements. After all, the 20% of Li Mu's shares are not given in vain. Even if you don't need money, you have to exchange resources.
The attitude to seeing DreamWorks is very good, and Li Mu is also very satisfied. I said to Spielberg and other DreamWorks bosses: "In the future, if our Muye Pictures director has no drama to shoot, I will send them to DreamWorks learning, to see how Hollywood makes movies, from script to preparation to casting, to shooting, editing and post-production, these are all places they need to learn. "
Spilberg said with a smile: "Mr. Li, you can rest assured that every production team in DreamWorks will be open to you in the future, and in the process of observation, our staff must know everything and speak endlessly."
Li Mu nodded, looks at looked excited at Ning Hao and Teng Huatao, and laughed: "If you go to Hollywood to study in the future, you must settle down and study the most advanced production experience of Hollywood. This is for us Muye Pictures, domestic The development of the film and television industry has a very large role in promoting. "
Both of them nodded their heads in excitement.
At this time, Spielberg said: "Mr. Li, in the past few days of China, I deliberately looked at some China movie DVDs and found that there is a very serious problem, that is, the quality of the actors is uneven. Qi, I can see every movie, and most of the actors in it give me the feeling that I do n’t understand the performance at all. It seems that most people are very fake in front of the camera, either they are not strong enough, or they are too hard, not just Mass actors, even many leading actors have such a problem. If this problem cannot be solved in the future, then the future will definitely affect the quality of our collaborative film to a great extent. "
Li Mu smacked his mouth and sighed: "I don't hide you telling Steven, this is where I have been very helpless. The biggest problem in China is the lack of overall quality of practitioners. There are only a few domestic authoritative film and television schools. Most of the rest are some art colleges that mainly make money. In this case, let alone these profitable art colleges, even the authoritative film and television colleges are all unwritten rules and dark box operations. They are really capable. People ca n’t get in, they ca n’t get in, and that ’s the biggest sticking point! ”
Ning Hao, as an old cynical, heard Li Mu talk about this issue, and immediately agreed: "Before I entered the film school, I thought it was a palace and a cradle for the film and television industry. After I came in, I knew that this cradle was too filthy. , Even students in the acting department of the Film and Television Academy do n’t really understand acting, how much development can this industry expect? "
Speaking, he pointed to Huang Bo, who was a little more restrained and silent, saying: "Do n’t look at Huang Bo has never received any real professional performance training, but his acting skills are enough for more than 90% of domestic instant kill. The so-called academic actors. "
Huang Bo hastily waved his hand: "Director Ning what you said, I can't bear it ..."
At this time, Ning Hao had not spoken yet, and Li Mu had already spoken: "I think Ning Hao is right. Huang Bo's acting skills are indeed stronger than most academic actors. This is not only a compliment to Huang Bo, but also torture to the industry. Why is this happening and why people from the first-rate film and television school are less likely to act, in my opinion, it is because everyone no longer has the craftsmanship to do things to the extreme. "
Speaking of this, Li Mu sighed: "Why are the ancients so skillful in making ceramics, and why are many classic works such as Hyundai / modern so technologically advanced that they ca n’t be reproduced indiscriminately? To put it bluntly is that our current generation has lost the ancients. Craftsmanship, the film and television industry although is an industry only in modern times, but still needs a craftsmanship to be able to get things done. The success of Hollywood is not only the success of business, but also the promotion of countless masters ’ingenuity. Our film and television industry lacks This is the spirit, everyone is pursuing fame and fortune, and the business is not skilled, so they dare to come out to film and make money. In the final analysis, the industry environment is not healthy enough. If the industry is healthy enough, such people have no chance to get ahead. "
Spielberg nodded and lamented: "From my personal point of view, the quality of many employees in China is really not enough. Of all the movies I have watched in the past few days, none of them can reach the superb level. The most intuitive problem is the level of actors, so I think that in the future, we must pay more attention to it. If possible, I hope Muye Pictures can train a group of actors who pass the acting skills. "
Li Mu frowned, and then his eyes lit up: "Yes! It is important to train a group of acting actors who pass the acting skills! Let alone, at least cultivate a hundred acting actors who pass the acting skills. What kind of ordinary members, who is the director, who is the writer, who is the main actor, has such a large number of actors who have passed the level of strength, will not lower the production level of the whole drama, and will not affect the audience's sense of substitution. This is a huge asset. "
Thinking about this, Li Mu took a thigh shot: "That's right! It is to make users accustomed to heaven! It is necessary to use superb production and excellent products to improve the user's aesthetics and raise the user's vision. In this way, those who are indiscriminate in the future If you dare to take out bad movies and fool the audience, you must end up losing money and hanging eggs. As long as you do n’t get the money, they will be forced to change the market by the market, either to change or die! "
Spielberg looks at Li Mu, seriously said: "Mr. Li, I think your theory is very correct. The reason why the industry is turbid and halted, the most important thing is that the competitive pressure in terms of professional skills is small. If there is no one who pays for acting, then the industry will naturally not develop in the future, but if the taste of the market is improved, it will definitely force the practitioners to meet the needs of the market, otherwise it will be eliminated by the market. "
Speaking, Spielberg said again: "In fact, with your strength, I think it is entirely possible to set up a film and television training school in China. Then I can help you hire the best talents from Hollywood as professors. Cultivate a group of new talents for China movies that are free of the influence of Vanity Fair and complete Hollywood-style education, especially actors. If tens of hundreds of mass actors who pass the acting skills are trained, then such a group performance team will be The overall impact is definitely very large! "
Spielberg ’s words gave Li Mu a huge hint.
He had never thought of opening a film and television training school before, but now think about it carefully. The China film and television industry is really bad and choking.
In the current sluggish box office, the director only wants to win the prize. In order to win the prize, he will not hesitate to hang the sheep ’s head to sell dog meat, and he will not hesitate to use the gray operation;
The actor just wants to be famous, he does not hesitate to accept all kinds of unwritten rules in order to be famous, even to enter the film academy to conduct a black box transaction;
The film and television company only wants to reduce the budget and increase revenue, so that the movie set item(s) can be saved; the mass actors do not need to have good acting skills, only use the most small advantage; later effects can be fooled ...
People in the film and television industry are talking about all aspects of production. Very few people will calm down and study how to make a really good movie. In this case, how can it be possible to make a really good movie? ?
