Chapter 227: I Love Writing

We all know that it is rare for a movie to be released at the same time, on the one hand, there is the regional time difference, as well as the arrangement of the distributor, so shouting the slogan of the global xx day release, it is actually the unification of the main war zone and the secondary battlefield.

The box office in China is getting bigger and bigger, and it may even be that the sub-exhibition area has priority supply over the main battlefield.

In CCTV's pants building, Chu Shun and Yang Shun passed by, and Chu Shun often walked "with no one in sight", so he didn't notice it.

"Director Chu. Yang Shun stopped Chu Shun, he happened to have something to find Chu Shun.

"Oh, it's Mr. Yang, I'm sorry, I was thinking about things just now. Chu Shun looked at Yang Shun and remembered that the people invited by CCTV's [advocacy meeting] this time were basically bigwigs in the film and television industry, so it was normal for Yang Shun to come.

"Do you have time for a while, after finishing this, there are some things I want to discuss with Director Chu. "It's really inconvenient for Yang Shun to shoot soon.

"Well, there's a good bookstore nearby, it's antique, and we'll meet over there. Chu Shun said.

"I'm delaying Director Chu's time, then I'll go in first. Yang Shun pointed to the recording hall.

Chu Shun nodded, he had just come out of there.

CCTV recently made a [filmmaker's sense of social responsibility] advocacy meeting, the cause of the incident seems to be the "private room door" incident, a film company executive, in the KTV private room, let the audition woman make all kinds of shameful actions, at first it was still induced, and then the woman kept the bottom line and wanted to open the door and leave the private room, but the executive began to coerce violently, and finally violated the actress, which can basically be concluded to be ****.

I don't know why, this kind of thing was actually released a clear video, which was spread in the WeChat group at first, and it didn't take long for it to become popular all over the Internet.

Discuss it sensibly, the exploitation of rights must be very wrong, even from the Republic of China, there are unspoken rules for the movie queen Zhang Zhiyun.

But since ancient times, it must be a good rule?

The reason why this film company executive suffered was not because of the exploitation of rights itself, but because he was too stupid to let this kind of thing break out, and he didn't know what the position of the person filming was.

At that time, the official media all expressed their positions, and Yang Ma also convened a group of film and television company bosses to jointly shoot the advocacy meeting.

Except that Chu Shun came as a simple director? What can be seen from this? His image is very popular with CCTV and his status in the circle? It is also very high.

Think about it? Chu Shun has been making movies for more than five years, and almost all of them only have news when the movie is released? is usually quiet as a chicken, and the overall image is relatively positive.

And that's actually the case? If you concentrate on filming and don't send press releases, will passers-by be popular? As we all know, Lao Hu has more male fans than female fans.

Chu Shun casually went to see Hong Xing, this product is one of the few people he knows on CCTV.

Speaking of Hong Xing, his "The Return of the King of Soldiers" series was banned by the state, but it was not blocked? It's just that CCTV has been passed on above? As the director of CCTV, it is not good to shoot this type of network.

Hong Xing, who didn't shoot at the Internet University, was like being pumped out of his mind and listless, anyway, compared to seeing Hong Xing half a year ago, he felt several years older.

"Lao Hong. Chu Shun patted Hong Xing's shoulder, feeling that Lao Hong was in good spirits now.

"Director Chu came to shoot the advocacy meeting?" Although Hong Xing is a question sentence? But it's basically a yes, he said: "Is "Untouchable" going to the Berlin Film Festival?"

"It should be. Chu Shun nodded? I said before that in fact, participating in film festivals has little to do with not being released on the movie, but in most cases? Not releasing is to maximize the benefits.

"Now there is support on the Internet for "Untouchable" to win the Golden Bear Award. Hong Xing said: "The discussion on the Internet has exploded. ”

"Low-key. Chu Shun turned his words and asked: "I see that you are in a good mood, and you have come out of not being able to shoot the King of Soldiers series?"

"Completely out of the picture. Hong Xing smiled and said, "Director Chu, do you know?" What is my part-time status now? ”

Chu Shun is waiting to listen to Hong Xing's blowing? I only heard him say: "Vice President of the National Network Writers Association." ”

This wave really didn't make Chu Shun think of it? What the hell.

"When did you become an online writer?" Chu Shun wondered, couldn't this cargo soldier king theme be filmed, so he ran to write the soldier king theme......

When the king of soldiers went home, he found that his daughter lived in a kennel, and with an order, 100,000 retired soldiers from China carried the king of soldiers into the coffin?

"I have to write every day, I don't have the time. Hong Xing said: "I just watched the Internet, and I felt that many of the plots in it were more exciting than my movies." ”

"You're not an online writer, how can you ......" Chu Shun was about to ask in the second half of the sentence how he had served as vice president if he didn't write.

But I stopped halfway through the question, who stipulated that the vice president of the Internet Writers Association must be an online writer? It seems that the Poetry Association does not necessarily have to be able to write poetry.

"I'm going to tune two slightly positive ones and adapt them into new web dramas. Hong Xing said his plan.

Very good, Chu Shun is also very supportive of this, chatted with Hong Xing for more than ten minutes, and then left, going to the bookstore to find a place to sit down.

In fact, most bookstores do not rely on reading books to make money, many people come to sit and read books for a while, but do not buy them at all, and bookstores rely on tea and desserts to make money.

The bookstore is decorated in an antique style, and the key location is also quiet.

Chu Shun brought a copy of Goethe's work "Lena Fox", and the most sought after in China during the Republic of China were Tolstoy and Goethe.

Mr. Lin Yutang once said that thousands of years of Chinese culture did not give birth to a Goethe and Tolstoy.

Well-Lu Xun replied that since the birth of mankind, there has been only one Goethe, one Thors.

Although these two are indeed remarkable, there is no need to say so, there is indeed no Goethe and Tolstoy in China for thousands of years, but there is Li Dubai in poetry, Ouyang Xiu in prose, Zhang Dai in essays, and Feng Menglong in vernacular literature, and these people do not have them abroad.

Chu Shun looked at the book and didn't know where to go, about half an hour, Yang Shun finished recording CCTV's work and rushed over.

"Untouchable" has a pre-sale box office of 170 million, and the global box office will never be less than 400 million US dollars. Yang Shun analyzed: "Originally, the pre-sale box office of this kind of movie should not be so high, but it is said that this is the first to see the Golden Bear Award movie." ”

On Earth, "Untouchable" is the highest-grossing film in Europe at the global level, with a budget of $430 million, and in Yuandixing, coupled with Chu Shun's box office appeal and stronger distribution capabilities, it is really a failure if there is no $500 million in the world.

The original untouchable production company is the unlucky Gaumont Film Company, which can be compared to China Film + Disney + EMI?

chatted for a while, mainly about the current high-box office of the Chinese film and television industry to invite traffic stars, even if the policy prohibits it, but the film and television companies have countermeasures.

Seeing that he hadn't cut to the point, Chu Shun spoke directly: "Mr. Yang is looking for me today?"

Yang Shun also chatted about it, and turned back to today's main thing, he said: "Is Director Chu interested in being a film producer?"

"Huh?" Chu Shun looked at Yang Shun puzzled.

"Recently, we, West Film, China Film, and Wanda Pictures secretly filmed a science fiction film "Cat City".

If Chu Shun is not mistaken, the story of Cat City should be Lao She's, he has also read a little, telling that the protagonist landed on a strange planet due to an accident spaceship, and there is a cat country on this planet, cat people like to eat a kind of food called Maye very much, and they will be refreshed when they eat it, and they don't need to eat anything else, and they don't need to wash their hair, but the cat people are afraid of foreigners, so they ask the protagonist to help protect the maze leaves.

This plot, this content, Chu Shun couldn't help but say: "This content is not suitable for adaptation into science fiction, and there is no huge scene, if it is a big investment and hard science fiction, it will not work." ”

Lao She's one, saying that it is science fiction, is actually more like a realistic reaction.

Yang Shun was silent for a long time when he heard this, and he asked, "Director Chu is not optimistic about this project?"

"No, I am not optimistic, the adaptation of "Cat City" will indeed be a good movie if it is made well, but if it is a hardcore sci-fi movie, it is obviously not good. Chu Shun said his point.

I don't know why the three behemoths of Western Film, China Film, and Wanda suddenly set up such a movie, anyway, after Yang Shun pondered, he didn't talk about it anymore, and talked about Dai Mengxi's "Ice and Fire Man" had a good box office, and it sold 910 million in China.

Now Chu Shun's movies are basically promoted in China, and they are crossed by Western Film and China Film, and other companies such as Huayi and Guangguang are of course also red-eyed, but what's the matter? Little brother, do you want to fight against Western Film and China Film at the same time?

The producer's business didn't work out, Chu Shun returned to the hotel, and because he often had to go to the China Film office, a convenience store was also opened next to it.

Back at the hotel, Chu Shun received a call from Ruan Qi.

"Lao Chu asks you a question. Ruan Qi asked in a serious tone: "When you were inspired, did you have any small actions, such as scratching your head and touching your buttocks?" ”

"......" Chu Shun thought seriously and replied: "No." ”

"So, I know. Ruan Qi on the other end of the phone was thoughtful.

"How much has been written. Chu Shun asked curiously.

"Soon, I'm ready to start writing the second chapter. Ruan Qi said proudly.

It's rare to really start writing, and judging from this, a chapter has been written, Chu Shun praised: "That's really good." ”

"yes, my wife was blown away by my efficiency. Ruan Qi said: "Okay, I'm going to write diligently." ”

"It's full of fighting spirit. Chu Shun couldn't help but say.

"Of course, I love to write, writing makes me happy, the nanny calls me to eat, I turn a deaf ear, my dad friend tells me to go out to play and I am indifferent, and my wife calls me to sleep, and I do everything I can to excuse myself. Ruan Qi was categorical, and then added that he was going to code, and hung up the phone.

If it weren't for Ruan Qi's rich family, he shouldn't have a wife, and his wife told him to sleep and excused himself in every way, wouldn't that be - no?

Chu Shun went to sleep, and he didn't buy clothes yet, so early the next morning, he called Rui Ying to accompany him to shop, and it happened that Teacher Bai also had time to help with the reference.

"Director Chu, what clothes do you like?" asked Rui Ying, feeling that she had to ask clearly.

"Of course I like Yui Aragaki and Mai Kuraki. Rui Ying asked what style she was talking about, but when she heard the words Chu Shun blurted out.

"Aragaki knot, Kuraki hemp, is it an island country's brand?" Rui Ying said she hadn't heard of it, and it felt a little like a person's name.

"Oh, it's a niche brand over there in the island country. Chu Shun quickly took back his words.

The three of them are also celebrities, especially Rui Bai, so if they dress up a little, they won't be recognized.

Rui Ying, this guy, you have no problem letting her choose food, but choosing clothes is really not within the scope of her skills, and the coat she chooses is really ugly than the one he chose......

Wait, that doesn't seem right.

"Try this one, the shoulder width is good, it can hold up, and it should look good in it. "Teacher Bai is much more rational in choosing clothes, choosing from appearance and figure.

Time passed in his spare time, anyway, until December 25, Chu Shun didn't do anything, if he really wanted to say it, it was to discuss the acquisition of Haidie Music Company.

Because "Chu Shun's Second Time" is in preparation, after thinking about it carefully, I have been shooting movies in the future, and the original music blockbusters to be released are indispensable, which has always troubled the agency of Haidie Company.

However, this wave of acquisitions has shaken the music industry a lot, because although Haidie Company is not the first echelon in China, it is definitely the second echelon.

The music industry is completely incomprehensible, and whether a well-known and famous director in China wants to enter the music circle or do something.

"National Style Music" magazine also wrote a long analysis, saying that this is the first step for Chu Shun to use his influence to build an "entertainment empire".

The analysis is quite good, he is an insider, and he also caused a group of sailors to come out and say that if Chu Shun uses all his thoughts on business, will it hurt Zhongyong.

People inside and outside the circle are discussing, almost bits and pieces lasted until Christmas, the eyes fell on France, the street was full of small bell pendants produced in Yiwu, before Christmas there was no Santa Claus, there was no such lively, the main reason is that the capital has no money to make.

The premiere in Paris was held by the French company EMI, and a series of people who had fought in the newspapers, such as Croafjack, Baike, and Guy, came to attend the premiere.

The premiere was presided over by the director of the marketing department of EMI, a Frenchman with a high nose bridge, and the nose bridge was really high, like a mountain rising from the ground on the plain, which felt very abrupt.

The main creators of "Untouchable" such as Fran, the black Bell, Paulina, and Louise, the transformation vase, are all there.

The reason why he said that the director of the high nose bridge presided, his first sentence on the stage also explained:

"Director Chu Shun can't come to France for the time being, so it's an honor to be able to host tonight's "Untouchable" night, and when I watch the film internally, I feel that this is definitely the most wonderful French movie I have seen in recent years, and I believe you will not be disappointed. ”

"Then let's ask the main creators to talk about the shooting story. After the director of the high nose bridge finished speaking, he handed the conversation to the other stars.

The people below reacted differently to Director Gao's opening remarks, and Guy was convinced that he was ready to watch a great film.

Bai Kai frowned, even if the director of EMI is to build momentum in advance, there is no need to say anything about the most wonderful French films in recent years, you must know that France has still produced a lot of good films in recent years, not to mention the highest awards of the three major film festivals, French films have also won four in the past five years.

The above is not the key, the key is that in the past five years, Bai Kaike has also shot two films, where does the best come from?

"Don't you even dare to come to the premiere in Paris?" said Ralph Jack.

Basically, in the same sentence, there are also differences in what people notice differently.

When Fran and the others talked about their feelings one by one, it was actually a praise of the movie, so that the media present had words to praise, for example, Louise would say: "It is very different from me shooting Hollywood films, Director Chu Shun's requirements for acting skills and details are the strictest one I have ever seen, and he has taught us a lot on how to act." ”

On the surface, he was praising director Chu Shun, but in fact, he was telling the media present, "The old lady's acting skills have also been trained by the famous director, and she has completed the task well", look at this beautiful subtext.

The three major arts of modern speech: yin-yang, subtextual and sycophant.

About half an hour later, a dark movie began to play in the theater -

At the beginning of the movie, "Taiyi Film and Television Company" appeared, and then [Chu Shun's work], followed by a piece of light music, alternating light and dark street lights, and vehicles shuttling on the road at night, called "Fly" (Fly), but it made people feel lonely in the city.

The loneliness of city dwellers is not that they have no friends, nor that they have no people to talk to, but that they just feel swallowed up in the steel mountains and concrete valleys.

Because the soundtrack of "Untouchable" is relatively simple, with only nine original music, Chu Shun recorded it in less than a week, so he didn't say much.

Its soundtrack is Ludovico Eaudi, who is not well-known in the soundtrack circle, because he is a composer in the mixed classical music industry himself.

"The soundtrack is good, the look – it's so different from Cinema Paradiso. "Guy feels like it's a good start.

But Ralph Jack doesn't feel anything, and that's how opinion sometimes affects aesthetics.

After the lonely and clean soundtrack, it was the roar of the engine, and the black man drove the sports car on the road to turn left and right, and the speed was over-the-top at first glance, and it was worth mentioning that there was a white man with a sloppy beard sitting in the co-pilot.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the traffic police to follow, but the black man was still very arrogant, and he would definitely be able to get rid of the traffic police by betting 100 euros.

And then - the slap in the face came too quickly like a tornado, and two minutes later, the car was stopped by the police, and it was still front and back.

The black man was confident enough to re-raise, saying that he could get the police to help clear the way, but Philip was not convinced.

After getting out of the car, the black man turned against the customer, saying that he drove so fast to take his dying boss to the hospital, and now the traffic police stopped him, which is murder.

As soon as he grabbed the white, especially the white man Philip God in the car, he immediately began to convulse, and foamed at the mouth, feeling that the next second the person was going to pass, the intercepted traffic police panicked, in order not to take the blame, immediately the police car opened.

At the end of the title, the title of the movie is revealed - "Untouchable"

This title looks similar to a comedy, but it actually reveals a lot of information.

One of them, the black Dries and the white Philip cooperated very tacitly, and the traffic police did not discuss it in advance.

The second vaguely filmed that black people are actually not welcomed in France, and after the white traffic police saw that it was the black people driving, the two raised their guns to let the black Dries get out of the car.

Odrius got out of the car and wanted to explain, but was immediately violently pressed on the car cover by the traffic police, and he didn't listen to the explanation at all.

Finally, Philip, a white man, is disabled and has a wheelchair in the trunk of his car.

When Chu Shun looked at this paragraph, he was very curious about whether the Maserati of the sports car really had a trunk? This really touched the blind spot of Chu Shun's knowledge at that time.

The opening opening credits are quite fascinating, and Clarf Jack wants to see what kind of story there is between Dries and Philip.
