Chapter 206: The Chinese New Year War Begins!
"This Zhang Weiping, it's just nonsense!"
In the studio, Guo Fan was very unhappy looking at the news released by Sanlian Life Weekly on the Internet.
is not only for what Zhang Weiping said in the interview, but also unhappy that he was discussing the "Time Planning Bureau" with Li Qian was interrupted.
"It's not unusual to open your mouth wide, but I didn't expect him to open me first. ”
Li Qian smiled, he was going to watch the play before, watching Zhang Weiping and Wang Yuelun tear up, but he didn't expect it to be his turn in a blink of an eye.
"You say, is this the neighbor's house next door collapsed, I ran to see the excitement, just after a while, there was a loud noise behind me, my house collapsed. ”
"Boss, you're still laughing, I can't laugh anyway!" Guo Fan was speechless, he was scolded by someone pointing his nose, and he was so happy.
If it weren't for the previous discussion of the plot framework and conception, Li Qian's logic was very clear, and he would have suspected that Li Qian was stupid from time to time.
"Why don't you laugh, you have to live with a smile, it's hard to cry. ”
Li Qian shook his head, "Zhang Weiping has not had Zhang Yimou in the past three years, and he has almost disappeared in the film industry.
"Actually, there is one thing he said is right, "Stubborn Radish" is a bad movie, so I don't want to hang the name of a producer to help with publicity. ”
"Then this piece has nothing to do with you, boss. Qi Yukun said.
They still know about these films, "Stubborn Radish" Li Qian is just an investment, and has never interfered in the content and shooting of the film for half a step, except for the producer, there is nothing to do with it.
"Then let's have a press conference to clarify?" Guo Fan suggested, "Call Su Lun back, and Yang Qing as well, let's have a press conference!"
"There's no need. ”
Li Qian shook his head, "When the time comes, he should say that I forced you to hold a press conference and threatened you, anyway, tomorrow is the premiere of "Perfect World", and the media will definitely ask questions at the premiere, so what are you going to do now." ”
Li Qian really doesn't care too much, a director who has always had a good reputation and is very popular, this bit of gossip is not a big deal.
The industry is like this, when you become famous, everything will come, even if the director is half of the behind-the-scenes personnel, it is inevitable.
If you get angry at something, then don't mess up this business, sooner or later you will be angry to death.
However, Li Qian really didn't expect that the old enemy Yu Dong would not fight, and Zhang Weiping would take the lead in firing at himself.
In fact, Zhang Weiping also has a characteristic, in addition to the theater chain, he often scolds literary film practitioners, after all, his and Zhang Yimou's films are often criticized by literary film practitioners.
Jia Zhangke also happened to be interviewed by Sanlian Weekly back then, saying that in the midst of the hustle and bustle of commercial films, the Chinese screen is losing its ideological power, which is very sad, because it will only make people's spiritual life more impoverished and make people lose their judgment on movies.
also said that it is difficult to see "good people" now only "Golden Armor", which is obviously dissatisfied with the box office of his "Good Man of the Three Gorges".
Zhang Weiping sprayed directly, saying that he didn't bother to take care of him, didn't he just take a golden lion for that film, it's not that we haven't taken it, we take the rest.
also wants Jia Zhangke to keep his mouth shut, talk less, and have the ability, so let the audience come to watch his movies.
They all burst into foul language, and scolded with the country.
And commercial film directors are less scared.
However, there are not many serious commercial film directors in China.
is also a commercial film, and his film has a good reputation, I thought Zhang Weiping had no way to speak, but I didn't expect it to be bitten.
This also shows that Zhang Weiping is really nervous.
However, no matter what Zhang Weiping thinks about this, whether it is intentional or simply hilarious, it has set off a lot of waves on the Internet and in the industry.
"What's going on, what does Zhang Weiping mean by this?"
"I'll go, is this saying that Li Qian attributed the success of Qi Yukun, Guo Fan, Yang Qing, and Su Lun to himself?"
"No, Li Qian is just a producer, aren't the directors still them. ”
"You stupid, I can't understand this, isn't there always news that Li Qian single-handedly discovered them, it was their Bole, it seems that if it wasn't for Li Qian, their film would not have succeeded. ”
"There's nothing strange about it, if it weren't for Li Qian, I wouldn't have seen it. ”
"But those movies were made by other people, didn't Li Qian just pay for it, he still had to make his own films, and he definitely didn't participate in these movies, so it would be too much credit to him. ”
"The money is earned, the reputation belongs to himself, and Li Qian takes all the benefits, and the directors who make movies are not busy in vain. ”
"I said that you guys are not idle eggs, last year there was news that the movie he supervised was actually made by him, a group of people are yin and yang, and now they say that the movie has nothing to do with him, and they are crooked here. ”
"I don't think so, they are not all rookie directors, newcomers definitely need guidance, Li Qian estimates that he has guided them, and he also has credit. ”
"Directing a fart, the most important thing to be a director is talent, why don't Li Qian make his first movie without guidance!"
......
There was a lot of controversy online, but not so intense.
However, the reporter immediately interviewed Yang Qing, the director of "Nightclub", who was in Beijing, and Tian Meng, the director of "Stubborn Radish".
Yang Qing was stunned, and was asked by a reporter whether Li Qian participated in the production of "Nightclub", so he bluntly said that Li Qian only went to the crew halfway and stayed for two hours.
And Tian Meng has been holding his breath in his heart, although "Stubborn Radish" sold more than 20 million box office, but the reputation is not good.
When filming just started, he could wake up laughing at the box office of 20 million, but Li Qian's fame skyrocketed after making two movies, and it was released three months earlier, and "Nightclub", which is also a comedy, sold 50 million, and the reputation was also very good, which made him feel uncomfortable.
The screenwriter of "Stubborn Radish" is also one of the screenwriters of "Crazy Stone", and he thinks that his "Stubborn Radish" is no worse than "Nightclub".
But the box office was twice as bad, and under the imbalance of mentality, it was attributed to Li Qian's refusal to help with publicity, and he had resentment in his heart, and he was a little weird in the face of reporters.
"I don't know why Director Li denied the fact that he is the film producer, he first found me what I wanted to invest, and finally I also accepted Director Li's investment of 2.5 million, and he is also the largest investor in the film. ”
The fact that Li Qian is the producer of "Stubborn Radish" does not want to help the movie promote has his own considerations, which is basically an obvious hint.
One of the parties came out, and netizens began to get excited.
"I'm really, I run away when the situation is wrong, I feel like a movie, I don't admit my producer, I'm afraid of ruining my reputation. ”
"It's too much, a typical dislike of the poor and love the rich, and the benefits are all reaped by themselves. ”
"What about Bole, a rookie director, if he has a good movie, he becomes a producer, and he treats it as his own film, but in fact, he doesn't do anything, at most he is an investor, and they are all taught by Li Qian to make them better. ”
"This is a bit shameless, fame and money are accounted for, and the director of the family works for nothing. ”
......
The media is not idle, there are some media with ulterior motives, the Chinese New Year stalls are full of opponents, and no one knows who will come out to do things.
The reporters also found Su Lun, who was still in the south for the last few days of the roadshow, and in the face of this sharp question, Su Lun angrily refuted the reporter with a rhythmic face.
"It's completely nonsense, the idea of "Living Together in Time and Space" was given to me by the boss, the general story framework and the personalities of the two protagonists are also determined by the boss, it can be said that half of the script of this film was decided by him, and after the start, he also stayed in the crew for more than a week, starting and finishing work at the same time with the crew every day, and completing the filming of the film. ”
completely stood on Li Qian's side, without a trace of hesitation, which made the reporters a little surprised and disappointed.
In their opinion, young people who suddenly become famous will definitely be impetuous, arrogant and arrogant, but the reaction in this regard cannot be seen at all in Su Lun, a newly graduated director.
The reporters left disappointed, some went to Jiangcheng, some went to Shennongjia in northern Hubei Province, and reporters in Beijing were looking for Guo Fan and Qi Yukun, hoping that they would stand up and accuse Li Qian.
The crew of Jiangcheng's "People in Embarrassment", how could Xu Zheng, who was finished in two days, be fooled by such a small skill from the reporter, and also said righteously that Li Qian gave a lot of suggestions from the script to the casting and shooting location of this movie.
And Wu Jing, who was filming "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" in Shennongjia in northern Hubei Province, the indignation in the heart of this tough guy was directly expressed on his face.
"I don't have anything to say, the idea of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" was given by Director Li, and the script was constantly improved under his guidance, all the characters and settings gave me a lot of advice, and he just finished the post-production of "Perfect World" a few days ago and specially came to the crew to guide the shooting!"
And Qi Yukun and Guo Fan in the capital also arrested the reporter.
"I said it when "127 Hours" was released, the boss is also one of the screenwriters, and he specially took time to guide the filming of the crew.
I don't have anything to say about Zhang Weiping, but I want to give him a sentence he said himself, before understanding the matter, as a public figure, he doesn't even know how to be a person, he can only spray feces with his mouth, and he is not worthy of being a person!"
Guo Fan directly scolded Zhang Weiping by name, which made the reporters a little overwhelmed, but he still put it on the news as it was.
In one day, all the films produced by Li Qian, including those that are still being filmed, the director has all spoken.
Except for Tian Meng and the unintentional Yang Qing, they all unswervingly supported Li Qian.
This dispelled the only doubts in the minds of most netizens, and a small number of voices are insignificant on the Internet.
However, the voices of Xu Zheng and Wu Jing were reported, which also made the audience pay attention to the two movies that are still being filmed under the supervision of Li Qian.
There was a press conference when I started it before, but after so long, and after the fierce National Day and New Year files, I almost forgot it.
happened to be mentioned by the media again, and the topic was brought to the movies produced by Li Qian, "People in Embarrassment" and "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" have also become movies that fans are hotly discussing and paying attention to.
A comedy of Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang, an action suspense film starring Wu Jing and a foreigner, are all films that look quite interesting.
Moreover, after all, "Living Together in Time and Space" is already 160 million, and it is another movie with a bumper harvest at the box office and word of mouth.
The four words of Li Qian's producer are more appealing than ordinary well-known directors, and they can already make the audience blindly trust!
There are two more movies that have attracted attention, and the New Year file is becoming more and more lively.
In this way, in the midst of all the disturbances, on the evening of December 3, "Perfect World" held a premiere ceremony in Beijing.
The Lunar New Year war has officially kicked off!
