Dozens of props were brought to the movie viewing site from the Chedun Base of Shanghai Film and Television Park. Fans who came to watch the movie had a glimpse of the tumultuous era of Shanghai in the 1990s in the movie theater, and stepped on the "flowers" red carpet in person. Interact immersively with NPC characters dressed in 1990s costumes, watch the ups and downs of "Mr. Bao" on the screen, experience your own "flowering" moments off the screen, and feel the dual charm of film and theater.
It is reported that "Flowers" is not only a major literary and artistic creation funding project in Shanghai, but also the Shanghai Film Group has escorted this work all the way, spending 500 million to buy the base, and providing real money to support the series. At present, #上影花500 Million Purchase Base to Support Blossom Shooting# is also on the hot search.
Producer of "Flowers", Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of Shanghai Film Group, Wang Jian'er once recalled a certain meeting with director Wong Kar-wai. Wong Kar-wai said that he had his eye on a studio base in Shanghai, but he had no money to complete it. "Shanghai Film Group Do you have the courage to take it?" Wang Jianer accepted the contract for "Flowers", and Shanghai Film Group invested 500 million yuan to acquire Haopu Film and Television Base, which was Wong Kar-wai's only favorite.
The base is adjacent to the Chedun Film and Television Base under Shanghai Film Group Corporation. It has multiple high-standard studios and supporting facilities, including a large studio of more than 5,000 square meters, which provided a top-notch hardware foundation for the filming of "Flowers".
In addition, based on the original intention and long-term consideration of creating "Shanghai-style high-quality products", Shanghai Film Group created the story stage of "Flowers" at the Chedun Film and Television Base. road.
It is worth mentioning that this is undoubtedly a far-sighted investment. After "Flowers" became a hit, people's attention to Shanghai's urban geography and human history continued to rise, and many citizens and tourists went to the film and television base to "check in."
The real scene of Yellow River Road built for "Flowers" will, together with the newly built "Wukang Building" and other real scenes in recent years, become the carrier of Shanghai Film and Television Park's "film and television + cultural tourism" exploration.
The Haopu Film and Television Base acquired for "Flowers" is also aiming to advance the goal of "establishing Shanghai Film Science and Technology Innovation Center" and will have a "front store and back factory" type of in-depth linkage with Shanghai Film and Television Park to create a future-oriented Digital creative industry community and intelligent international studio.
It is reported that in recent years, Shanghai Film has been deeply involved in film and television creation, and "Shanghai Film Production" has ushered in an "explosion period" of Shanghai-style masterpieces.
At the beginning of 2022, the Shanghai-language film "The Myth of Love" produced by Shanghai Film Group became a hit and became a hot topic among Shanghai citizens. It became synonymous with Shanghai-style culture, Shanghai complex and Shanghai feelings.
On New Year's Day in 2023, the animated series "Chinese Stories" produced by Shanghai Film's subsidiary Shanghai Meiying became a hit after it premiered on station B. The Douban score was as high as 9.9. Netizens exclaimed, "The Shanghai Meiying in my memory is back!" "
There is no lingering news. "Flowers", the first drama series directed by Wong Kar-wai produced by Shanghai Film Studio, has landed on CCTV and has become a phenomenon-level work.
Currently, Shanghai Film is continuing to promote the "Shanghai Feast Plan" and launching a series of high-quality movies rooted in Shanghai culture such as "Love Myth 2" and "Table". Shanghai Cinema SHO, Chedun Film and Television Base, Haopu Film and Television Base and other Shanghai cultural landmarks under Shanghai Film Group will also link up film and television with culture and tourism to create a new generation of Shanghai-style cultural tourism destinations.
