Chapter 429 'Dumpling Criminal' and 'The Richest Man in Tomatoes'
The nomination and election process is quite heated, and each of the popular candidates has its own supporters, and each has its own strengths and advantages.
A is a handsome hurdler, B is an invincible Hot Wheels player, C dares to eat glass, Ding is clamoring to open up the moon market...
Zuo Le was optimistic about Wu, who could memorize all the association's rules and regulations, but Wu was unpopular, and even if Zuo Le supported him, he could not be nominated in the end.
After the dust settled, Zuo Le attended the party in the evening, then declined the president's invitation to go fishing in the reservoir tomorrow, then went to his father-in-law's house to sit there, and returned to Quancheng early the next morning.
After all this hard work, all the chores and trivial matters were basically settled, and he had enough rest on vacation. Zuo Le finally focused on his new work.
As I said before, after "Mao Liang", Zuo Le wanted to make a new movie, and Shanhe was clamoring to enter the film field every day. It took almost three years to make two movies, which is really a bit of a thunderstorm.
But there is nothing we can do. Who makes Shanhe's basic disk be TV dramas? Most of the company's resources and energy must be given priority to Shanhe dramas.
In addition, Zuo Le was at odds with some people in the film industry, which made him a little embarrassed in the film field.
Over and over again, Shanhe's plan to enter the film industry was delayed, but Zuo Le's film dream was not shattered yet.
The more the Golden Dragon Award suppresses him, the more Zuo Le wants to fight against it.
If he has the ability, the Golden Dragon Award will publicly ban him. Otherwise, if Zuo Le makes a movie, the outside world will pay attention to how the Golden Dragon Award will be handled. If it is the kind that achieves both box office and word-of-mouth success.
Without nominations and awards, the credibility of the Golden Dragon Awards will be lost.
Nominations and awards are just a slap in the face of those who suppress Zuo Le.
Winning an award, gaining fame and fortune, and slapping an enemy in the face are simply multiple pleasures. How could Zuo Le ignore them?
Besides, if he doesn't make movies, what will he do with the inventory of Goldfinger? Will it go to waste?
Therefore, not only Zuo Le will be filming, but when the time comes, Kong Sheng, Gao Xinjian and others will also be filming. If they are not suitable for making movies, then Sunward will hire another film director.
To put it shamelessly, for Zuo Le, making money is important now, but more importantly, letting the audience see Goldfinger's excellent film and television works.
At this moment, Zuo Le is no longer a drama copycat, but a disseminator of film and television culture in another time and space...
………
This time Zuo Le still plans to make a comedy.
Doesn't the Golden Phoenix Awards discriminate against comedies? He wants to use comedy to smash their prejudices.
If one movie didn't work, he made two movies.
If two movies didn't work, he made four movies.
Anyway, he has money and a script, and as long as the box office is guaranteed, it will be spent on Ya...
Maybe it’s because the first two were comedy movies, or maybe Goldfinger and Zuo Le have the same mind, but now Goldfinger has the most comedy movies.
Zuo Le made a selection and finally settled on two movies.
The first movie is "Tomato Rich", which tells the story of a poor man who suddenly became rich and spent money according to an agreement, but in the end he was able to maintain his original intention.
The overall style is very similar to "Charlotte Trouble", with a lot of jokes and jokes. The fastest update. Computer version::/
Zuo Le has experience in the production of "Charlotte". If he makes this movie, he is very confident that he can make it well. If the schedule is right, it will have a high chance of becoming a hit at the box office.
The second movie is called "Extreme Job". What's special is that this is a foreign movie, somewhat similar to South Korea.
Zuo Le learned some information about this movie from Goldfinger's review. It is said that this movie is a two-part movie, with two countries each making a version.
The foreign one is called "Extreme Job" and the domestic one is called "Lobster Detective". Zuo Le has watched both of these movies.
Maybe it's because the two movies are part of the same script and appeared together in Goldfinger at the time.
Although it is the same script, "Lobster Detective" is not on the same level as "Extreme Job", as you can tell from the reviews.
"Lobster Detective" is a blockbuster movie that made a little splash.
"Extreme Job" was well received and seems to have achieved something like the highest box office record in the country.
Even if Zuo Le is more protective of his shortcomings, he has to admit that of the two movies, in terms of quality and performance, "Extreme Job" completely beats "Lobster Detective".
Zuo Le is also working on "Extreme Job" this time. During the period, he will make some local adaptations with reference to "Lobster Detective", but the plot will still be based on "Extreme Job".
The scripts of the two movies have now been revised. "The Tomato Man" is not much different from the original version. The main plot of "Extreme Job" has not changed, but the details have almost been completely changed.
A group of frustrated anti-drug policemen, in order to monitor a group of drug dealers, took over the dumpling shop next door to facilitate their operations, but unexpectedly the business boomed.
The members of the team who were dedicated to investigating the case had no choice but to run an increasingly popular dumpling shop. While searching for clues to the case, through a series of ridiculous processes, they finally captured the drug dealer.
………
From a safe perspective, "Tomato Rich Man" is the best option, and "Extreme Career" is, after all, a local Chinese version, which carries some risks.
Moreover, in terms of the overall plot structure, this movie is not as exciting as "The Tomato Man" and is relatively simple.
According to Zuo Le, the reason why it became so popular is that actors account for a lot of the credit. More than 60% of the movie's jokes are made up of jokes. If it weren't for the actors' wonderful performance, the effect of the entire movie would be compromised.
Zuo Le was more hesitant about which one to choose.
After discussing with the company's senior management, we finally decided that we could make both movies.
The plot of "Xtreme Job" is relatively simple. Half of the scenes revolve around the dumpling shop. Except for the final battle, the other fragmented scenes are not too difficult.
If the filming goes well, it can be completed in two months. With the pre-production and post-production, maybe it can be released for National Day.
If you can't get it on the National Day stall, then you can get it on the New Year's Day stall.
As for "The Richest Tomato", there are many big scenes and it requires a lot of coordination. However, there are producers in the early preparations and editors in the post-production. Zuo Le is only responsible for the shooting, and three months is enough to win.
If "The Tomato Man" is scheduled to be released during the Lunar New Year, there will definitely be enough time for Zuo Le to coordinate the filming of the two movies.
Zuo Le thought for a while, why don't he just be busy? It's not like he hasn't been busy before.
Besides, with the help of a large group of producers, assistants, deputy directors and staff, it’s not too busy. As long as you adjust and plan the time, it’s not particularly difficult.
Hehe, they say he doesn’t make movies, but now he makes two movies at once, let’s see who still finds fault...
………
After the decision was made, the two films were quickly approved.
Among them, Zuo Le felt that the name "Extreme Career" was too general and had no characteristics, so he changed it to "Dumpling Detective", which is playful and attractive.
One is "Dumpling Detective" and the other is "Tomato Rich Man".
Those who didn’t know better thought that Zuo Le wanted to make a cartoon about anthropomorphic food...
