"The world's box office king, "The Time Machine" is about to change ownership"
"Shocking Hollywood Industrial Film"
"Only Hollywood can make such an amazing movie, "Superman" is the undisputed king of science fiction movies"
…
October 23rd.
The box office performance of "Superman" shocked the entire Chinese film industry.
Seventeen million!
After seeing this premiere data, Chinese filmmakers realized that the dominance of "Time Machine" in China was about to be broken by the movie "Superman"!
Chinese movie fans are rejoicing. They feel that they have witnessed the birth of a new history of world cinema, and they feel an indescribable sense of excitement.
Starring Chris Jeff's charming face and explosive muscles attracted a group of fanatical fans. They admired him and even wanted to gently touch his chest muscles through the big screen while watching the movie.
.
Especially on the morning of October 23rd, when I heard that the "Superman" team was about to arrive in Yanjing to promote the offline peripherals of "Superman" and that starring Chris Jeff would also appear at the promotion meeting, the Internet
It was even more explosive. Many forums and forums were asking about the time, location, and the accuracy of these news...
Although, "Superman" is not a Chinese movie.
………………
“Can you contact Steve Doan, the director of Superman?”
"Yes, I am Chinese director Cao Guobang. Many years ago, I met Steve Doan when we were in Cannes. We talked about many things. We Chinese directors want to organize a learning and exchange meeting. We hope to invite Steve Doan
Mr. Tivdogan is here, I hope he can come and direct our Chinese movies..."
"Okay, it's okay, I'll wait for the call."
Early morning on October 23rd.
Cao Guobang made a phone call. After making the call, he looked at Jiang Ge, who was sitting quietly next to him, and looked at him seriously: "Xiao Jiang, this opportunity is rare. If this happens,
You should seize this opportunity and learn more about the advanced knowledge of international directors at the conference. It is also a science fiction movie. It will definitely be of great help to your "Machine Man". At the same time, we seniors will think
Try to pull strings to see if we can invite "Superman" star Chris Jeff to come over and be the protagonist of "Mechanical Man"..."
"Ah, Chris Jeff's salary should not be low..." When Jiang Ge heard this sentence, he was surprised and a little worried.
"These are not important. I will help you with the investors. You just need to make a good movie and be looked down upon by those cats and dogs..." Cao Guobang patted Jiang Ge on the shoulder.
"Thank you, Uncle Cao!" Jiang Ge was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
"Haha, we have such a relationship, what else can we be grateful for? If young people like you with potential and talent can shine in the circle, it doesn't matter even if you put our old faces on the ground."
"I will work hard!" Jiang Ge clenched his fists, feeling extremely moved in his heart.
"Ha ha."
Cao Bangguo laughed heartily.
Then, his phone rang again.
"Huh? Director Steve Doan has no schedule in China, but assistant director Andor Johnny will come over?"
"It's the same, it doesn't matter."
"Yes, please help me contact Johnny. Well, you must provide the highest level of hospitality to make them feel at home in China..."
"Well, forget it, you make an appointment and I will personally take someone to pick them up."
"Contact Director Zhou Yilin and see if he is willing to come with me. His movie "The City of Golden Armor" also needs some exposure, right? Also, doesn't he have a few students? I must bring them with him.
"
"Let me tell you, don't the funds of our Directors Guild need approval from above..."
After Cao Bangguo put down his phone, he nodded with a smile.
He looked out the window in the office.
He was also very excited. On the one hand, he felt proud that he initiated this project, and on the other hand, he felt that it was very meaningful to do so.
The mainstay of Chinese films are people from the older generation.
The hope of Chinese movies lies in this group of young children...
The legacy of making movies and thriving under the care of the older generation is the true orthodoxy of Chinese movies.
Not long after, his cell phone rang again.
"Does the superior want to invite Zhou Yang, Feng Kai and others to come and study together?"
"No, how can these unruly guys be qualified to participate in such a top learning exchange meeting? This will seriously affect the face of our Chinese film industry..."
"What is Zhou Yang? A guy who can't even carry a camera, has he ever gone to school for a day?"
"Does he know what the film industry is? Does he know what a blockbuster is? Does he understand what special effects are? I don't think he even understands film theory!"
"I don't agree, and I believe that all the other directors in the Directors Guild will not agree either!"
"Anyway, tell me what I mean. Zhou Yang and Feng Kai can participate if they want, but they must apologize to us publicly. We have given him the opportunity to apologize in private, but he doesn't cherish it. He really takes us seriously.
Is it a soft persimmon?"
"..."
Cao Bangguo put down his phone with an indifferent expression.
Jiang Ge, who was next to him, was also a little indignant after hearing Cao Bangguo's words: "This kind of person is really shameless. He doesn't even know how to step down. He is either stupid or bad..."
……………………
Some people are coming.
Some people left.
Although "Jin Yiwei" has a lot of negative news, because Wang Shuai said a few words in it and because of Zhou Yang's capital injection, the senior management of Brother Entertainment did not take action against Feng Kai after all, and promised that as long as "Jin Yiwei" can go smoothly
As long as the filming is done, they will still support "Jinyiwei" and will not withdraw the company's investment.
Starring Zou Qi also left, and her contract with the "Jinyiwei" project was peacefully terminated.
From directing "The Golden Guard" to now, I have been uncooperative in various ways. What's the point of having such people in the crew? It will only increase troubles.
Assistant director Xu Hongbing also left.
One more day such a rebellious guy stays on the set will make people sicker one more day.
Although a lot of previously filmed content had to be deleted because of this, Feng Kai didn't feel distressed, but felt very excited.
At this moment, he has truly become the core figure with real power in the entire "Jinyiwei" project. The next step is to find suitable actors and shoot the movie according to his own ideas, and that's it.
October 24th.
Huaxing.
"These people from the Directors Guild are really disgusting..."
In the office, Feng Kai saw the news on the Internet. The news was about the "Study and Exchange Meeting between the Chinese Directors Association and the "Superman" crew."
There was a photo in the news of Cao Bangguo holding hands with Andor Johnny, the assistant director of the "Superman" movie.
In the photo, Cao Bangguo is smiling brightly, and on both sides are Zhou Yilin, Zhao Sicheng and other older Chinese directors...
Andorra Johnny was surrounded by these people, like a focal figure.
The content of the news made Feng Kai feel sick to his stomach. The whole content was full of licking taste, such as "advanced experience, learning and exchange, and guidance of the new movie "Roboman"".
In addition to these news, it was revealed that Django's new movie "Roboman" has invited Erdogan, the second villain in the "Superman" movie, to be the protagonist.
If it were Feng Kai a year ago, he would have found these news contents very exciting, and at the same time he would have been yearning for it deep in his heart, imagining that he was one of the influential figures here. But after listening to what Zhou Yang said at the meeting, he
I just feel like "worshiping foreigners and favoring foreigners".
"No matter what other people do, we can just take pictures of ourselves..." Zhou Yang didn't feel anything after reading the news. He just smiled calmly. He was not affected in any way.
"Hey, I understand the truth, but... forget it, Zhou Yang, shall I leave then?"
"Let's go, I'll go back to "The Grandmaster" tomorrow too..." Zhou Yang nodded.
"Zhou Yang, I feel like you are so strange now. I wonder if you will be a different person when we meet next time..." Feng Kai looked at Zhou Yang sitting at his desk with a calm expression.
I sighed with emotion.
"Um?"
"Nothing...I'm leaving." Feng Kai turned and left the office.
After Feng Kai left, Zhou Yang silently glanced at the latest box office data of "Superman" in front of the computer. After thinking deeply for a long time, he silently took out a pen and paper.
Then...
I wrote three words "Spider-Man".
He was very impressed by this movie.
When he was in his teens, he rented a pirated disc of "Spider-Man 1". He was so excited to watch it that even some irrational friends around him actually tried it on spiders, imagining that they could also appear in various forms.
Various special abilities to save the world.
He recalled the plot of "Spider-Man" carefully. However, even with such a profound impression of the movie, he could only remember some fragmentary fragments and the general plot after so many years.
Green Goblin, Sandman...
Wait, is this the second part of Sandman or which one is it?
He found that he couldn't even remember the protagonist's name!
Like, what's the name Peter?
Or Pete?
"Why!"
He sighed, and then silently wrote this paragraph on the paper: "Peter Wang is an ordinary Chinese international student in the United States. After graduation, he became a reporter for the "Daily Bugle". Due to an accident, he was killed by a radioactively infected animal.
The spider bit him, so he gained the same superpowers as the spider, superhuman endurance, reaction, agility and speed..."
After finishing writing, he continued to recall the plot of the movie, and wrote another paragraph: "The death of Wang Peter's uncle Wang Parker made Wang Peter awaken and realize the belief that "the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility"..."
After finishing the rough plot, Zhou Yang stared at the Western and Western name, and suddenly felt that he was very likely to make "Spider-Man" into a combination of Chinese and Western...
