Crazy, 500 yuan also dare to make a science fiction blockbuster

Qian Jun translated for Ye Heng on the spot.

"Dear Mr. Ye Heng, hello.

When I get this letter, I think those machines have been delivered to you.

To be honest, when I just heard that a world-class director like you is going to shoot a black and white movie, I didn’t want to believe it until later they gave enough evidence, a photo with you, and Has his business card.

For a long time, I thought that liking black and white movies was a small hobby of mine alone. This small hobby once made me feel that I am different and have a unique and different aesthetic.

But with the passage of time, I found that this hobby that once made me proud has gradually made me lonely, because no one can share this happiness with me. I am in a continent with hundreds of millions of people, but I can’t find one Those who share, this is the curse of sorrow.

Whenever I want to share my hobbies with others, I often get supercilious and incredulous eyes from others. Old fashioned stuff.

But I really can't let myself ignore the beautiful pictures that are simply overlapped by black and white. I know that I can't give up this unique beauty.

So when I heard you wanted to shoot a black and white film and didn't have the right machine, I donated my machine.

I like that you can use these machines to shoot a beautiful work, so that people can appreciate again, this simple black and white intertwined beautiful picture scroll. "

"I heard that your next stop is Baiqi State. I wonder if you would like to come and sit at my house. I have many topics I want to talk to you about."

Next, is an address.

Qian Jun handed the letter back to Ye Heng.

"It seems to be a remnant of the old era." Ye Heng said with a helpless smile on his face.

Ye Heng always believes that there are definitely more than one or two people in this world who like black and white movies.

They may be less in number, but it is by no means that there is only one in a hundred million people.

And the reason why I can't find anyone to share it is because everyone regards all this as an old antique, and has never seen a good enough black and white movie.

They haven't seen the ink-and-wash painting, and haven't experienced that beautiful era, so how can they go back to liking him.

Just like people who have never seen a rainbow, whether they are willing to look forward to the sky after the rainstorm.

But soon, all that will change.

Ye Heng will create a rainbow for them, so that those who hate cloudy clouds and heavy rain will fall in love with rainy days because of the existence of this rainbow.

"It seems that when I go to Baiqi country, I have to pay him a good visit."

With that said, Ye Heng put away the letter.

He was a little curious about what kind of person this person who likes black and white movies would be.

An old man who is seven or eighty years old?Or older, because you have felt the beauty of that era and seen the unique charm of black and white movies, so you have always missed that era?

Chapter 401 Heading to the White Flag

With the new equipment, the shooting of the film naturally became much easier.

Although it took some time to learn these devices, fortunately, it was not too long. In addition, these machines seemed to be modified on the basis of existing machines.

So it's easier for people who have the basics to learn.

In just one week, Ye Heng taught the photographers of the film crew how to use these machines.

After that, it started to enter the stage of shooting.

During the filming period, the New Era also gradually started the announcement of "The Oddities 2" and "Toy Story".

Although Ye Heng is not the director of these two films, they are equally attractive.

Needless to say, "Oddities 2" has laid a solid foundation for it in the first one, and it was even called "the film that broke the curse of sports movies" at the beginning, so the attention of the sequel is naturally extremely high.

And "Toy Story" is the first animation film since the establishment of the animation department in New Era, and it is also written by Ye Heng.

In addition, the trailer they released also attracted the attention of many people.

So during the three-month protection month for him, for a full two months, the movie theaters were dominated by "Oddities 2" and "Toy Story".

However, after being suppressed by Ye Heng for so many years, some movies seem to have begun to improve.

Within a month of the release of "The Odds 2", 5 movies had a box office of over 5 million, and one even broke the [-] million mark!

Ye Heng later found these movies and watched them, and they were really good. At least compared to the previous movies, they have improved a lot.

But if you want to score, Ye Heng thinks that it is the limit of 7.5~7.8 points.

There is still some distance from the excellent score of 8 points.

However, Ye Heng believes that, given time, in another five, ten or even 20 years, such a movie will definitely appear.

What he has to do now is to make some movies to stimulate the movie industry in this world.

"Oddly 2" finally won a full box office of 50 billion, but he was not the biggest winner in this protection month, the biggest winner was the first animation of the new era, "Toy Story".

Because it is a movie for all ages, no matter if you are a child or an adult, you can watch it.

Moreover, the release time, the protection month, coincides with the two holidays of Christmas and Spring Festival. Many parents are also willing to take their children to watch such a movie.

So under the superposition of various factors, the box office of "Toy Story" reached a huge 80 billion.

And last year's global film market directly broke through the astonishing achievement of 1200 billion knives due to the continuous efforts of Ye Henghe and New Era.

The filming of "Schindler's List" took only one month, which is relatively short.

However, it took another month for some technical problems after that.

Black-and-white movies are naturally different from color movies in terms of processing, and he can only do it himself in many places.

And what broke Ye Heng the most was the little girl in red, who was Frank's granddaughter.

Because there was no suitable tool, Ye Heng had to do it himself to dye the little girl's clothes red.

Call out each frame, and then use a brush to paint bit by bit.

It took Ye Heng three days to finish this job.

Basically, there is no difficulty, but you need to be patient, and it is easy to make people irritated.

But when he finally saw the finished film, Ye Heng knew that it was all worth it.

"It was supposed to be a big farewell party, and now we're huddled in such a small restaurant."

Frank complained, with a trace of helplessness on his face.

"I think it's good. Small restaurants have their advantages. The food here is not as exquisite as that in big restaurants, but in terms of taste, it's always the same."

As he spoke, a smile appeared on Ye Heng's face.

Tonight he will leave the swastika country for the white flag country.

And the swastika country originally arranged a grand farewell party for him.

However, Ye Heng rejected it because he didn't like too much noise.

And Swastika, considering what happened back then, didn't force it, and agreed with Ye Heng.

In a diner, say a quick goodbye to Frank.

"Director Ye Heng, are you sure you won't be staying for a while?"

Frank sat opposite Ye Heng, with a trace of reluctance in his eyes.

"I like the swastika country very much, but I'm afraid I can't. There are still 8 countries waiting for me to go there."

As he spoke, a helpless smile appeared on Ye Heng's face.

"Then after the filming is over, do you want to consider visiting the swastika country?"

Hearing this, Ye Heng just smiled lightly and did not speak.

Come over for fun, I'm afraid it's not that simple, if you want him to come over, will you be pestering him to make two movies?

just forget it.

……

At 9 o'clock that night, Ye Heng got on the plane to Paris.

Two hours later, the plane landed at the airport in Paris.

Ye Heng stepped off the plane slowly and looked at this familiar place.

This is already his fourth time here...

Looking at the world outside the airport, it was pitch black, there was no one under the lights not far away, it was empty.

Except for the people who were arranged by the White Flag State to wait under the plane, there was no one else.

Ye Heng got off the plane, and the people waiting below came over immediately.

"Mr. Ye Heng, let's come."

They took Ye Heng's luggage and took Ye Heng into the car.

The car started, and Ye Heng looked out the window.

The neon lights of the bustling city are constantly passing in front of the cars and boats, the traffic is busy, and there are still many pedestrians on the roadside, even though it is almost 12 o'clock now.

He thought of those nights in Amiens.

Amiens is not as bustling as Paris, and there will be fewer people at night.

He still remembers that night, they wandered in a deserted alley, sat down in an unknown cafe, drank coffee, chatted, and paid 50 yuan for fortune-telling...

A smile appeared on Ye Heng's face, but it disappeared after a while.

Good memories are always not easy to pass away, and in a blink of an eye, they are no longer yours.

They finally sent Ye Heng and Qian Jun to a luxurious hotel.

The owner of the hotel was waiting outside the door. After seeing Ye Heng coming down, he immediately greeted him warmly.

"Mr. Ye Heng, you are here."

"We have prepared your room for you, please let me take you there."

After speaking, he asked the service staff to pick up Ye Heng's suitcase and took Ye Heng to the presidential suite on the top floor.

"This entire floor is yours. If you need anything, there is a communicator in the room, and you can use it by pressing it."

"If you need anything, you can call me anytime."

……

Chapter 402 Pen pals

On the second day after arriving in Baiqi State, Ye Heng was invited to a room in the State Council.

There were also many people sitting inside, which was similar to the situation in the previous Swastika Kingdom.

"Mr. Ye Heng, I am the Minister of Culture of Baiqi State, you can call me Marcus."

He shook hands with Ye Heng.

"Hi Mr. Marcus."

Ye Heng looked at the people in front of him, he didn't need them to speak, he knew what to do now.

It's nothing more than the same thing as in the swastika country, discussing the script.

After that, they spent 2 hours describing the movie in their minds to Ye Heng.

But in fact, in simple terms, their requirements can be directly planned into three points.

First, there must be an element of love.

Second, enough romance.

Third, it must take place in the White Flag State.

Just such a simple three points, they forcefully explained to Ye Heng for 2 hours what they could clearly explain in 20 seconds.

But Ye Heng didn't refute anything, after all, he came out on behalf of the country.

"Director Ye Heng, do you have any questions?"

After talking for a while, Marcus looked at Ye Heng with a smile on his face.

Ye Heng shook his head, "No, you have already explained it in detail."
