What's the difference between mainland movies and European and American movies?

For example, the budgets of both parties are 1 billion RMB (converted into 1573W).

American director group: with so much money, it's small. I'll give you 300W w. Go and help me find some first-class screenwriters and let them work together to write a script. I want to commercialize sci-fi movies and find you a first-class actor and a few second-and third-rate actors for 300 W. Come here, Xiao B. There is $100W here. You can make any props you need as a template after the script comes out. Almost enough. We still have a later stage.

Then, Xiao said that first-class actors charge high prices. After reading the script, the director group thought it didn't matter whether he was there or not, so they invited a second-rate fighter and several second-rate actors to perform together, with a budget of 250W, leaving a budget of 50W for Xiao A and building several virtual sheds without props for Xiao B, which cost about 150W, and Xiao B's budget was 50 W.

At this point, the crew left 1073W for three months, and the crew * * * spent 100W for the post-production of the special effects company, and spent 500W, leaving 473W, all for publicity.

Because there is more money and the publicity is sincere, everyone buys it. Besides, it doesn't matter whether the script is good or not, just watch it happily.

Mainland Directors Group: Will 100 million be less? Come here, Xiao A. Why don't you contact some popular stars and invite them to play? Let me see. How's this? I just grab a youth novel and adapt it into a movie. Contact with stars is the focus of one or two million things. Come here, B. I'll give it to you first 100W. After the stars are in place, you can promote our films and find more media.

-Then invite the popular stars, * * * at a cost of 5000W W, and increase the activities during the publicity, with the cost increased by 100 W, and the walk-on and eighteen-line actors * * count100 w.

At this time, the crew had only 4,600 W left, and it took three months to shoot. Because the plot needs to set a lot of scenes, the cost is too high, and 4~500W is used before and after, 200W W is used by all actors (including walk-on and eighteen-line actors), and the remaining 3200W is used for publicity expenses, or to buy some box office popularity.

You may be confused by writing so much, so let me sum up that the US budget is so large that it has long been used to make science fiction films. They know that science fiction movies with concepts can attract the most money. They can't afford first-line actors, so they can hire second-line actors. In the mainland, few movies have such a large budget, usually a 3000W is a lot.

The fatal point of both lies in the choice of scripts and actors. The level of screenwriters in the mainland is uneven, and some will choose popular stars. However, not all stars are suitable for acting, and the requirements for actors are very strict. Wong Kar-wai had to train by himself for half a year before he was allowed to film. However, there are many movie stars, which are easy to attract fans to watch and are the first choice for attracting gold. I admit that I went to see Beauty for Dew for Liu Yifei and my friends before, and then. . .

Moreover, the mainland film industry is still in the growth stage, and special effects are not good. Foreign countries can only use green screens, and we should strive to build cinemas.

One more thing, the cinema. American movies have a grading system, and the film laws are perfect, and fake box office is explicitly prohibited. However, this is not the case in the Mainland. Producers and distributors sometimes make fake box offices by buying box offices to attract more people to the cinema.

Anyway, in a word, when the United States makes movies, money is spent on the cutting edge, while when the mainland makes movies, money is spent on the back of the knife.
