Recently, the director of "Eyewitness" Fei Xing appeared at a national theater chain domestic film promotion conference to introduce his two new "Ghost Blows Out the Light" movies - "Yunnan Worm Valley" and "Longling Labyrinth", and announced that "Ghost Blows Out the Light: Yunnan Worm Valley" will be released in full version in theaters across the country during this year's National Day, and "Ghost Blows Out the Light: Dragon Ridge Labyrinth" will be released at a date to be determined next year. It is worth mentioning that for the big IP "Ghost Blows Out the Light", Feixing used all new actors this time. He said frankly: "This is my arrogance, but it is a gamble for investors." He described his version of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" as "a joyful adventure film" and "like "Band of Brothers" it is full of friendship, responsibility and courage." At the promotion meeting, Feixing thanked the copyright holder of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" for giving him complete trust, and thanked Guangguang Media for its spiritual support in the early stages of the project, as well as Huayi Brothers for the financial and technical help to the film. In 2013, the movie "Eyewitness" written and directed by Fei Xing won 180 million yuan at the box office, but he was "silent" in the following four years. It turned out that he had been preparing for the "Ghost Blowing Light" trilogy, in addition to "Longling Mystery Cave", "Yunnan Worm Valley", there is also "Kunlun Temple". Fei Xing said: "I spent a lot of time to write the scripts for the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" trilogy. If I want to be satisfied with the three movie scripts, I have to kill a lot of brain nerves in the process. In addition, "Ghost Blows Out the Light" requires a lot of CG special effects. Almost every shot has to be drawn. After the shooting is completed, there is still a huge amount of post-production work. I have never been idle in the past four years." Regarding the use of newcomers, Feihang once said: "When James Cameron made Titanic, the investment was the largest in history. He used two newcomers, and now both of them have become big names. Another example is Twilight, which also used pure newcomers, including Transformers, the same. In the mature business system of Hollywood, as long as it is an IP with a very strong mass base, a big production, and a reliable director, they are generally reluctant to use big names. Of course, my Ghost Blows Out the Light is unprecedented in China. This is my arrogance, but it is a gamble for the investors." According to Fei Xing's previous interview, after reading the script, the investors of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" not only did not object to using newcomers, but also decided to double the production costs. |
