Look at the media that appeared at this audition, including Big Eye Entertainment’s on-set news program.
Of course, Mr. Zhang from other media outlets did not treat everyone unfairly and treated everyone equally. As long as they had a certain audience and were willing to come for interviews, he would welcome them all.
News is a two-way street.
The actors who came for the audition were eager to make their presence felt in front of Lao Zhang through this audition. As for Lao Zhang, although he did not intend to choose them, he made full use of their value.
The actors who appeared like a revolving lantern, some were just newcomers, but there were also big stars. These people appeared in turns. It is usually difficult to photograph these people.
Now that so many have appeared at once, why don't we hurry up and take pictures?
"Look, why is that greasy one here too?"
"He also wants to make comedy films?"
"who knows?"
"If he does it, it will only be a cold joke."
The very famous star who just left was a household name and everyone knew about it. However, his great popularity did not bring him many advantages. On the contrary, it made more people hate him.
As the saying goes, as deep as the love is, so intense is the hatred.
I think back then, Luo Nian Xiaosheng could be considered a rising star. He was handsome, had excellent overall conditions, was from a serious academic background, and was expected to do everything.
However, now, whether it is the serious media or passers-by on the Internet, his evaluation is always relatively low.
This situation seems to be unacceptable to Xiaosheng himself, so he is also thinking of various ways to change the public's concept.
However, after a year or two of struggling like this, it doesn't seem to have improved much. On the contrary, it is self-defeating and looks even more ridiculous.
What to do?
Greedy Xiaosheng also gradually felt that if he wanted to turn public opinion that had fallen into a trough into a trough, he must at least have a new work that he could produce.
As long as there are works, no matter how loud the various noisy voices about him are, they will never hurt his roots.
This idea is correct, but when implemented, it seems to be a little off.
You see, this kind of film is completely inconsistent with his tone, so what is he going to do?
It's a waste of time and money, and the only advantage is probably that it attracts a lot of attention to Lao Zhang. After all, he can be regarded as the most famous among the heroes who came to audition today.
All the big stars are interested in Lao Zhang's movies and come to audition enthusiastically. This will further highlight the value of our Lao Zhang.
You young people like you are optimistic that I still have the final say in the world, and I, Zhang, will never grow old!
It is nothing more than seeking medical treatment in a hurry.
It feels like this time, the greasy boy is going to fail again.
Journalist friends can see through this at a glance. This person actually has the courage to participate in the audition. I don’t know whether he should be said to be courageous or just a fool.
All in all, the greasy boy seems to be very anxious recently, and various news about him often appear in major media.
One moment he expressed that he could try this kind of role, and the next moment he expressed that he could cooperate with that great director. He was probably eager to find a breakthrough point for himself.
However, it is obvious that "Three Words and Two Pai" is not suitable for him.
After several days of auditions, Lao Zhang finally understood how to play new media. All kinds of news came out all over the place, allowing him to earn enough traffic.
This wave of operations dazzled his old classmate, Ms. Gu Mei.
This old Zhang, I haven’t seen him for a few days, is doing something new!
It must be his would-be son-in-law Wu Di who is behind this!
Wu Di, who is lifting dumbbells: I was wronged!
When did I ever come up with such a bad idea?
In fact, if Lao Zhang really came to seek Wu Di's opinion, he would never instigate him to make the early publicity of this movie so big.
Useless.
real.
In movies, plot is king after all.
You, Lao Zhang, are just a director. You are not the director of an entertainment company, let alone Ms. Ranmasanti. You need to be responsible for your own investment, so you must step up publicity and launch an offensive.
As a director, you only need to choose the right person for the role and tell the story well. This is considered as completing your job.
For a director, the most important thing before starting to shoot a movie is to create a script with an exquisite story.
This is the truth. As the saying goes, if the skin is gone, the hair will be attached.
The story is your skin, and the publicity and marketing are just the hairs attached to the skin.
It is an added value, but once your story is not good, no matter how passionate and comprehensive your marketing is, it only takes one day.
As soon as the movie is released for one day, its reputation will collapse, and all the previous efforts will be in vain.
It is a pity that "Three Words and Two Pats" is such a movie whose reputation has completely collapsed.
If you say this, Lao Zhang may be unconvinced, but in fact, judging from the finished product of "San Yan Er Pai", its quality is not even better than "Skin Change".
Although the story of skin-changing is a bit old-fashioned and simple, at least it expresses the story clearly and completely, and there are occasional tears. At the same time, it allows the audience friends to have a certain spiritual resonance, which is enough.
!
Although her story is not very exciting, this story has already reached a passing grade. Coupled with handsome men and beautiful women and dazzling special effects, it is inevitable that it will be a box office hit.
Looking back at "Three Words and Two Pats", tsk tsk...
Although he was already very familiar with this story and was about to join the crew for filming, Wu Di still couldn't figure out why Lao Zhang came up with such a script.
How do you describe that feeling?
Even if you really evaluate this movie with your heart, you will feel as if you are sorry for Lao Zhang.
right!
That's the feeling.
If you just watch it for fun and appreciate it with a non-serious eye, you might not be so angry.
It's still understandable.
However, once you look at this movie with a professional eye, or a viewer who wants to see a good movie.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Then your mood will be mixed and very heavy.
This story, it's not a story, what kind of thing is this?
These characters, hahahaha.
Basically none of them stand up.
Coupled with the wild background of the desert, the feeling is simply amazing. You seem to have returned to the American West in the 1950s and 1960s, the era when Western cowboy movies appeared in droves.
It seems popular enough, but in fact, among so many films, there are only a few that can be selected as masterpieces.
There are so many of them are crude, mass-produced products that have no practical significance at all, and they even have no ornamental value.
And this movie gave Wu Di the feeling that it was like a Western movie without the proper seasoning.
Although it is absurd and bizarre, the taste is not right. Zhang said that this movie is a mix of comedy and suspense, and it is his new attempt.
Wu Di only felt that this movie was completely different.
Suspense?
Do not make jokes!
That doesn't exist.
As soon as the main characters appear at the beginning, you can identify who is the wolf and who will be the lucky one at a glance, and in the end, you really didn't guess wrong at all.
Such a simple proposition, in front of theater audiences who have experienced the baptism of many suspenseful and brain-burning classic movies, is simply a big ax in front of Lu Ban.
This is fooling the audience!
Just like this, it's as suspenseful as a gossamer. If it were just labeled as a plot, no one would say anything.
But who gave you the label of suspense?
Moreover, depending on what Lao Zhang means, he is quite confident in the suspense nature of his movie, and plans to make suspense an important point in widespread publicity after the movie is completed.
It would be strange if Lao Zhang didn’t get scolded for such a coquettish operation!
Compared with the suspense part, even the comedy part has a slightly lighter blame to bear.
You see, although it is very tacky.
Although it's ridiculous.
Although it's not funny at all.
However, it is indeed a comedy movie.
The actors' performances should be entertaining. Wu Di even believed that the performances of several actors were remarkable and they completed the tasks assigned by Lao Zhang.
However, the most important thing is that it is not enough for a comedy movie to have actors with a sense of humor performing it. They still need a witty script to drive it forward.
At this point, Lao Zhang's understanding was deviated.
In other words, he himself didn't have much confidence in shooting the comedy part, so he threw it to the assistant director.
However, the assistant director does not have the right to select actors, and the script is not written by him. It can be said that the assistant director's right to speak about this movie is actually very limited.
As a result, a director who is good at shooting comedies, when it comes to this movie with sufficient funds and a large number of big names, will actually be tied up and unable to perform at all, or can't find the rhythm at all.
After all, the so-called idea of mixing comedy with suspense is not that subtle in the first place. Besides, there is also a positioning problem.
Is our three-word film a comedy? Or a suspense film?
If we are stricter, it is Lao Zhang himself who should bear this responsibility, because for a movie, especially this type of so-called mashup, its final destination is still the story, and the audience can breathe a sigh of relief.
Although the movie is terrible, we are persisting and waiting to see the final outcome.
Let's see what kind of ending this terrible movie will have. If it's okay, if there are surprises, we can swallow the Three-Character Sutra that we have already prepared.
However, the ending of three words and two parts is a pure speechless ending. In addition, the previous two hours of chaos are simply a pure waste of time.
How can you accept all those insults?
It can be said that a mediocre comedy movie only scratches the surface and makes you unable to laugh, but a movie with the banner of suspense, when the final ending comes out, the audience suddenly realizes that it’s fucking awesome, and we just ate it.
What a piece of shit!
What are these things?
Is this also called suspense?
So, they started to curse me in all kinds of ways.
There are both good and bad swear words. Movie fans who eat shit are naturally the righteous side. No matter how they criticize, there is a reason.
They can use their unique knowledge over the years to let the director and all the cast and crew appreciate the beauty of the motherland's writing.
Really, all of them are righteous men who speak fragrantly.
As soon as this first wave of movie reviews comes out, all your previous efforts will be wasted in an instant, and nothing will be left.
In this year of 2010, the control over film reviews is still relatively limited and weak, and the overwhelming publicity cannot hide the true reviews.
As a result, Lao Zhang is still dreaming of using Lan Masanti's money to promote on a large scale and gain box office through hype, while on the other hand, Wu Di has already met Lan Masanti.
Of course, it's definitely not for money.
"Mom, anyway, the details are almost like this. If you want more detailed information, I will go find out when I officially join the group."
"Even if Xiaofeng and I are going to get married, and you and Lao Zhang are going to be parents-in-law, you have to take care of your money and not let him squander it."
Ranmasanti chuckled. Her son had her in his heart and finally knew how to consider her. As a mother, what could be more important than this?
"You don't have to be too anxious. You must be polite to Lao Zhang and don't make the relationship stalemate. I still say that I will be responsible for the money. In this regard, I have more experience than you. As for you, you are responsible.
In terms of interpersonal relationships, whether it is the elder Zhang or the younger Zhang, the relationship must be maintained."
"You see, you are now involved in the entertainment industry. This place is a place where gold and bones are lost. Money is of course very important, but relationships are equally important."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Your mother and I have been in the entertainment industry for many years. Although I have not been an actor or produced my own movies and TV series, there are some things in the entertainment industry.
, I still know it very well.”
"The entertainment industry is actually a small world. People here value loyalty. For many directors, if they like you, even if you don't give them money, the show won't be that good. It doesn't matter. As long as we have a good relationship.
Okay, everything is easy to talk about."
"Look, you and Lao Zhang now have this rare relationship. With a director like Lao Zhang, many people line up to beg him to act, but he may not even give him a chance. But now, you have a chance.
It's all brought to you, so even if he is more calculating about money, don't pay too much attention to it."
"These are all upfront investments."
Lao Zhang is very well-known. I think that before Lanmasanti went abroad, she had already heard of his name.
At that time, although he had not yet reached the heights he is now, he was already well-known internationally and could be regarded as a new director who attracted much attention.
Therefore, Ms. Ranmasanti had a lot of expectations for Lao Zhang. Even though her own son reminded her repeatedly, she still didn't take it seriously.
What could Wu Di do? He could only show his hands.
However, even if Ranmasanti is very stubborn, Wu Di still has to work hard.
It's not just about money!
It’s a matter of principle and dignity!
Obviously knowing that San Yan Er Pai is a bad movie, not only will it collapse at the box office, but its reputation will also plummet.
How can you allow your own mother to expand investment in a movie like this?
Even if you want to invest, you must do so under your own supervision.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be like throwing a large amount of money into the water and not even making a sound?
