Chapter 1056 Take the initiative to win over Qiu Shuzhen
The reason why I thought of filming the Pink League is because the heroine of this movie happens to be Gina Davis who plays Selma in Crazy Flowers of the End.
Of course, the key is that this movie reflects women's rights and tells about the women's baseball team, and the box office performance is very good, ranking among the top ten in the annual box office in North America that year.
At that time, Gina Davis, who has filmed the Crazy Flower of the End, is the biggest publicity point, just the same feminist theme, or the same heroine, can attract a large number of feminist people into the cinema, as well as all kinds of spontaneous publicity.
Publicity costs can save a lot of money.
In addition, in addition to setting the project of the Pink Alliance, Qiao Feng and Robert Iger chatted about Terminator 2, Ocean's Eleven, Instinct, Beijing Meets Seattle and other movie promotion things.
Especially instinct.
The film is rated R.
And it took 14 re-cuts to get an R rating.
For an R-rated movie, the audience itself has been greatly affected, and the number of viewers who can enter the cinema is also less than half of that of other rated movies.
Of course, R-rated movies also have their advantages, that is, movies with this rating are very exciting, and there will be many restricted shots in them, which are all points that attract the target audience.
Take instinct as an example, the red fruit shots and bloody shots in it can attract a large number of male audiences, and they are repeatedly entered.
Not to mention anything else, just the shot of Sharon Stone crossing and changing legs and crossing Erlang's legs, in order to see the flashing picture, I didn't watch it several times, and I couldn't see it clearly more than a dozen times.
Of course, that picture is actually only less than a second, even if it is paused, watch it frame by frame, you don't really want to see the real scenery under the skirt.
However, this shot as a propaganda point is an absolute killer.
In addition to the footage of Qingse and Hongguoguo, it took fourteen cuts to achieve an R rating, and Mike Douglas personally drove into the car to star in the stunt performance of the crash scene.
While filming a murder scene, a medical officer is on standby to prevent Sharon Stone from fainting due to a bloody performance, a scene that later becomes a nightmare for the medical officer.
Fifty San Francisco Police Department riot police officers patrol the filming site every day to prevent radical gay people from initiating aggressive acts against the film crew, etc., which Qiao Feng and Iger consider to be excellent publicity points.
Instinctive movies will focus on these points when they are about to be released.
"The end of the road is a box office success?"
After talking to Egger, Qiao Feng flew back to Hong Kong, and Qiu Shuzhen, who was fine, came to pick up the plane, and pretended to inadvertently provoke the topic on the way.
"Well, that's good, the timing of this movie was well chosen, just in time for another movie to sleep with the enemy and set off a feminist craze, but how do you know?." Qiao Feng asked curiously.
"Hong Kong media have reported in the past two days that Hollywood is setting off a feminist trend, and major film companies are preparing to make feminist films." Qiu Shuzhen explained.
"Well, yes, I'm thinking about following the trend and making hot money, not to mention other companies, just MGM and I just finalized a feminist movie before I came back." Qiao Feng said with a smile.
"yes, is there a role for me?" Qiu Shuzhen immediately asked.
That's exactly what she's up this topic for.
She wants to act in Hollywood movies, especially for her who has starred in a blockbuster movie like Agent Belle in North America, and she who has been on that bigger stage is absolutely unwilling to nest in the small pool of Hong Kong.
It can't be said that she is scheming and speaks in a detour.
Qiao Feng has many women, but there are a number of movies made every year, especially Hollywood movies.
And there are very few heroines suitable for Chinese, even if they are suitable for important female characters, they are extremely rare.
And this kind of opportunity, Qiao Feng often gives more intimate people such as Zhong Chuhong, Guan Zhilin, Lin Qingxia, Ye Qianwen, Wang Xuxian and others.
Qiu Shuzhen is good, after participating in the Hong Kong sister competition, she was arranged by Qiao Feng to play the role of an agent beauty, and it was a big hit at the box office.
Like Yuan Jieying, Li Saifeng, and Li Lizhen, they haven't played important roles in Hollywood movies.
Therefore, in this kind of situation where there are more monks and less meat, some opportunities still have to be fought for by themselves.
Qiao Feng understood Qiu Shuzhen's thoughts, but unfortunately, there was really no role suitable for her in the Pink Alliance.
Not to mention a Chinese, even if it is black, there is no suitable role in it.
You must know that the story of the Red Pink League takes place during World War II, when people of color were not eligible to act with white people.
It was only in 1964 that blacks were removed from the restrictions on racial segregation in public places, and they were eligible to operate in public places with whites, and it took 65 years for them to have equal suffrage.
Yellow people are not even black in the United States.
If it's really in a movie like the Pink League, which happened during World War II, a yellow race and a white person playing together, it would be a joke.
Seeing Qiao Feng shaking his head, Qiu Shuzhen couldn't hide the disappointment on her face.
"What, disappointed?" Qiao Feng amusedly bumped Qiu Shuzhen with his shoulder.
"Nope." Qiu Shuzhen said with a smile.
Qiao Feng saw a hint of reluctance in it.
"Okay, there's no suitable movie for that movie, we have other movies, as long as you want to act, there are good scripts, I'll write it for you." Qiao Feng hugged her waist and said.
"Really, how long will it take?" Qiu Shuzhen's mood immediately improved, and she asked with joy on her face.
"Don't wait, there is now.I have a book in my hand.It's the third heroine.There was one of yours.,Who knew I hadn't had time to tell you.,You yourself...."Qiao Feng said funny.
Without waiting for Qiao Feng to make fun of himself, Qiu Shuzhen rushed into his arms and hammered his small breasts, and said coquettishly: "You still said, I thought you forgot me, I have to fight for it myself."
"Okay, okay, it's me who is wrong, it's me who is wrong." Qiao Feng enjoyed the warm fragrance of nephrite and begged for mercy.
"Tell me quickly, the three heroines, what are you talking about? Is it similar to Sister Qingxia and Sister Chu Hong?" Zhong Chuhong asked a little anxiously.
"It's different, this movie is about three beautiful female agents, who take on all kinds of difficult tasks under the leadership of a mysterious leader, punish rape and eliminate evil, and uphold justice." Qiao Feng explained.
The movie he is talking about is based on the popular TV series Charlie's Angel.
In fact, Egger really wanted Qiao Feng to hand over to MGM to make this movie, but Qiao Feng felt that the team in Hong Kong could do it in this movie.
Using the Hong Kong team to do it, the production cost can be saved a lot, and the Hong Kong team can also be trained.
Again, this kind of popcorn action movie is very popular, and Thunderbolt can be said to have made three heroines popular in one play.
Of course, Cameron Diaz herself had a lot of fame when she took over the filming of Perak, but she was able to enter the $20 million club because of Perak.
In addition, Drew Barrymore can become a successful producer, and the company makes a lot of money, also thanks to Thunderbolt.
Not to mention these two, the foundation itself is very good.
Another Chinese actress, Lucy Liu, really became popular by relying on Thunderbolt Jiaowa.
The popularity is the highest level that a Chinese actress can reach in Hollywood.
If this movie is not used to praise his own people, Qiao Feng is too good a mallet.
But then again, the role that Qiao Feng promised to Qiu Shuzhen was really not reserved for Qiu Shuzhen at the beginning.
Man.
Qiu Shuzhen has a saying that is right, but she has to fight for it herself.
