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

It seems that I can only ask for luck.

But as a director, if the emperor really wants to find something to do with himself, it should be something about the movie.

But what could be the matter in the movie?

Shouldn't it be like the beautiful country, making a movie for them?

If this is the case, as long as the other party doesn't force himself too much, Ye Heng is actually quite willing to take pictures.

Chapter 268 Ten Billion Level

The three of Ye Heng walked in with the emperor and a group of people, and sat at the dining table.

Besides them, there were quite a few people at the tea table, some in suits and some in military uniforms. It seemed that this was not destined to be a simple banquet.

As the dishes were gradually served, the emperor made everyone eat them one after another.

It seemed that he was worried that Ye Heng and Zhang Wenke were not used to using knives and forks, so the emperor specially asked them to prepare chopsticks.

But before taking a few bites, the emperor spoke directly.

"Ye Heng, are you interested in making a movie in Maoxiong Country?"

Ye Heng was taken aback for a moment, obviously he didn't expect the emperor to be so direct.

"If there is a suitable subject, I would be happy."

Hearing this, the emperor smiled and lowered his head to eat another two mouthfuls of food.

"War and Peace, you were reading this book before, right?"

Ye Heng nodded, he knew that the emperor was talking about the book he read in the hotel.

"Do you think it's possible to film him?"

At this moment, Ye Heng seemed to have guessed what the emperor was thinking, and his heart skipped a beat.

However, Mao Xiongguo is not particularly rich now, and Ye Heng feels that it is unrealistic to spend nearly [-] billion on a movie.

But after pondering for a while, he nodded.

"As long as there are enough funds, actors and support, it should not be a big problem to make it."

Hearing this, everyone present smiled, which further confirmed Ye Heng's conjecture.

It seems that Mao Xiong really wanted to shoot "War and Peace".

It's a pity that if it is going to be photographed, the huge amount of money is obviously not something Mao Xiongguo can support.

Of course, Ye Heng can also make a "special edition" and use the American version.

But if you want to shoot, Ye Heng still thinks that the Russian version is the first choice.

"How much do you think it will cost to make the movie?"

The emperor spoke again, and this time it was Ye Heng's turn to make trouble.

After pondering for a long time, he looked at the emperor.

"This depends on how far you want to shoot the movie."

"Tell me in detail."

"If you just want to make a simple filming, and don't pursue the film's various restorations of that period, but simply shoot the plot, it will cost tens of millions of RMB, or 5 to 6 million in rubles."

The emperor nodded, the price is quite fair, even compared with some international blockbusters.Neither are big.

"Then what if it requires a high degree of restoration?"

Hearing this, Ye Heng silently put down the chopsticks in his hand and put his hands on his knees.

"Probably 100 billion."

"ruble?"

"RMB, converted into rubles, is probably within 1300 billion."

Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help being stunned, and looked at Ye Heng in disbelief.

1300 billion rubles, this is not a small amount!

"Can I ask what places cost so much money?"

The Great Emperor asked calmly at the beginning.

Ye Heng pondered for a while, "If you want to make this movie well, you must restore everything from that era as much as possible."

"First of all, the city, although it is not necessary to restore it [-]%, but the parts that need to be photographed still have to be built."

"Secondly, there are personnel. It is indeed difficult to act out a war scene with more than [-] people, but the current special effects technology is sufficient to do it, as long as there is enough money."

"There are also clothing and weapons from that time, which have to be imitated."

Speaking of this, Ye Heng looked at the emperor.

"In fact, 100 billion is based on the least estimate. If it is really calculated, it may be more, 200 billion, or even 300 billion."

"If a movie is to be perfect, spending money will be like running water."

After listening to Ye Heng's words, everyone was silent, as if they were thinking about something.

Ye Heng wasn't too surprised by this, after all, not everyone can afford to spend so much money to make a movie.

The original "War and Peace" was born in the hands of Big Brother during the Cold War.

The movie at that time represented the display of the country's soft power and face during the Big Brother Cold War.

It is also against such a background that Big Brother will do everything to make such a movie.

The Cold War period was also one of the most glorious moments in human history. Not only was there such a stunning masterpiece as "War and Peace", Gagarin and the Apollo moon landing program were also born at that time.

Pretty Country even supported the "Supersonic Passenger Aircraft" proposal at that time.

At that time, the name "Lighthouse Country" was still a compliment.

It's a pity that everything has changed since the fall of Big Brother.

In the current Mao Xiong Kingdom, it seems unnecessary to spend so much energy on a movie, because it is not worth it at all.

So Ye Heng felt that if they really wanted to shoot "War and Peace", they would most likely choose the first option.

Although the quality will be worse, at least the money spent is less than one grade.

"Then can we ask you to help us film "War and Peace?"

The emperor specially used you to show respect to Ye Heng.

Ye Heng didn't have the slightest surprise. From the very beginning, wasn't this the purpose of the banquet.

"Of course, I would love to shoot this masterpiece."

When the emperor heard this, he immediately smiled.

But among those present, only the Great Emperor and Ye Heng were laughing, while the others were all frowning.

It seems that making a movie is not a good thing.

"Then when will we start building the city?"

"what?"

Ye Heng was stunned for a moment.

Built the city?What the hell?Why build a city?

"Didn't you say that you want to restore everything from that era, including the castle? Of course you have to build a city."

As soon as these words came out, Ye Heng immediately understood what the emperor meant.

"You mean, you're going to make the movie the second way?!"

The Great Emperor smiled and nodded.

At this moment, Ye Heng only felt that the whole person was shocked, and he was speechless for a long time.

"The cost of the funds will be extremely high. If it is not tens of billions, no, it will be hundreds of billions of rubles. It will not be sold at all."

"I know." The Great Emperor nodded with a smile on his face.

Ye Heng wanted to say something else, to persuade the emperor.

But he thought about it again, he is the king of a country.

Before doing this kind of thing, I must have considered all of this, and I actually want to persuade others.

In the end, Ye Heng chose to nod, "Okay, if you decide, then choose the second way."

"but……"

Ye Heng gritted his teeth. Although it might be inappropriate to ask these questions, he still couldn't help but want to ask them.

"If you want to ask anything, just ask." The emperor saw the doubt on Ye Heng's face.

"Is it really worth spending so much money on a movie? Won't the people protest?"

Chapter 269 Davarish

Ye Heng likes movies very much. Movies are art, and for art, it is worth spending a lot of money.

But the premise that it is worth it is that the money spent will not have any impact on your own life.

Some people looked up at the moon, while others picked up sixpence.

You can look at your moon without bowing your head for sixpence, you don't have to be rich.

But before you look at the moon, you'd better make sure you have money in your pocket for dinner to-morrow, even if it's less than sixpence.

This is Ye Heng's consistent thinking, first guarantee sixpence, and then look up at the moon.

But Maoxiong Country's economy doesn't seem to be very prosperous. Is it really good to spend this money to make movies?

As for Ye Heng's question, the emperor smiled slightly.

"Filming "War and Peace" is far from my wish alone."

The emperor said, but the smile on his face gradually disappeared, as if he remembered something.

"He was the wish of an era, and the wish of all people in that era."

"It's just that now, in that era, the person who made the wish died, and that era also died."

"But some people who left that era, they're still alive."

"This film is like a letter to the past, written with the pen and paper of the past."

As he said that, the eyes of this tough guy were a bit hazy, maybe this is the tenderness of the tough guy.

"As for funding, don't worry, in the era of Big Brother, they have already prepared everything."

"It's just that at that time, I couldn't find a suitable candidate to be the director of the film, because the responsibility was too heavy."

"And now, maybe we've found the right guy."

He looked at Ye Heng with a smile on his face.

Ye Heng lowered his head and pondered.

The whole night after that, no one spoke at all.

"I don't understand."

Ye Heng sat in the car with blank eyes.

"Is there anything you don't understand?"

"The emperor in my image is not such a person."

"The emperor in your image?"

"Well, I still remember his speech, but it's not so much a speech as it is a joke."

"A joke?"

Zhang Wenke was at a loss, did the emperor even make jokes?
