Chapter 179: You can look forward to it

Except for the elder Peet, who said that Britain has become the core of European art cinema is debatable, there is nothing wrong with it, and it is also very rare and common for film critics to like to mix in private goods.

Old Pete's wife is Italian, so she knows more about Italy, and she knows that there is nothing 100% positive except for money, and she is not right that even money is used by someone while cursing "Nima, why don't you use it, why don't you mature and give birth to cubs yourself, can you make people worry less".

The negative reviews of "Cinema Paradiso" in Europe focus on the core of the movie's story.

"Can't you go back to your hometown if you don't succeed?" many people asked rhetorically.

But in fact, just like the old Pete's film reviews, the "biasism" that exists in Italian movies likes to bet on something that has no future and is not sure, such as Fellini's "The White Chief", the heroine who escaped at the wedding scene is obsessed with the movie star White Chief, and then chases the stars with all her might, and the White Chief is a scumbag.

This kind of bias may not be correct, but it may be very correct, anyway, Italian directors like to magnify it in their works.

Perhaps it has something to do with the history of Italy, because in history Italy has never been so paranoid and has always surrendered, and no country has ever been able to defeat Italy......

After Lao Pete's comments, British people who don't understand can understand the mood of the movie a little, and because of the increase in Chu Shun's fame, the popularity of the movie continues to rise.

Time passed slowly on the day of the release of "Cinema Paradiso", during which Chu Shun received two interesting phone calls, one was that Alfonso, the chairman of the film academy, called Chu Shun to tell Chu Shun that the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs nominated Chu Shun and awarded the "Knight of the Order of the Star of Italy", which is currently being reviewed by the committee.

The medal was awarded to "foreigners and Italians abroad who have made an outstanding contribution to the promotion of friendly relations between Italy and other countries", and according to Alfonso, the medal was previously awarded to Chinese entrepreneurs and to the president of the Institute of Foreign Languages, and Chu Shun was the only director to be mentioned by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs since the award was established.

Chu Shun said that he was looking forward to this, but in fact, the expectation was just like that, and European countries like to issue various medals.

The other is that the editor-in-chief of the French "Le Monde" wanted Huaxia to give Chu Shun an exclusive interview, but Chu Shun, as the best-selling newspaper in France, Chu Shun refused.

But Chu Shun heard the editor-in-chief of the newspaper calling, and he was quite good at talking, so the way he refused was more tactful.

"If I had the opportunity to come to France, I would definitely be interviewed by Le Monde. Chu Shun said.

The editor-in-chief thought that Chu Shun was interested in France, so he immediately replied: "Director Chu Shun must come, Paris is also a very interesting city, I can work as a guide." ”

In Paris, Chu Shun thought about it, and his biggest impression of Paris came from a movie called "Perfume".

"Okay, there's a chance. Chu Shun didn't talk much with the editor-in-chief of "Le Monde" after speaking, because both sides were busy and hung up the phone.

Chu Shun continued to select actors, and he didn't know if it was providence, so he picked a suitable one within two days and invited him to audition in China.

"I don't know how much the Matrix bomb can sweep the box office in this world. "It's about to cut the leeks of the capital owner, and Chu Shun is still a little excited.

"It's been a long time since I posted on Weibo. Chu Shun edited and sent one.

I'm not Chu Shun: [The new movie "The Matrix 1" sci-fi movie, with an investment of 200 million US dollars, you can look forward to it.] ]

Originally, the popularity of "Paradise Cinema" was still two weeks after its release, and Chu Shun also sent a message.

was immediately arranged on the hot search again, as for who arranged it, it was naturally those sand sculpture netizens.

Smiling Doudou left a message: ", when did the Liver Emperor become so diligent?" I looked at the female ticket who was putting on makeup next to me, and interrupted her lipstick, my face hurts now, it's true, "Paradise Cinema" is still being released, and I'm actually preparing a new play!"

Baiqi left a message: "Actually, it's okay, have you ever thought about the last graduation work "Fatal ID", a year and a half, and I focus on the theme of science fiction...... I really looked forward to it. ”

Leaving a message: "Two hundred million dollars of investment? My obedient one is 1.3 billion soft sister coins, is the liver emperor playing so big? This will cost 400 million dollars to return to the capital!"

Shiitake Year, message: "In the past, they were all medium-budget art films, or small-budget suspense films, and the only blockbuster was "Let the Bullets Fly", but now it is a direct eight-level jump? ”

Gustavo left a message: "I thought, I saw someone say before that if Chu Shun shoots a science fiction film and is willing to contribute himself to his brothers to make the brothers happy, what is the name of that person, I want Aite to do it." ”

Water-colored cigarette butt left a message: "I'm really looking forward to it, imagine the depth of the connotation of "Cinema Paradiso", "Let the Bullets Fly" is a domineering line, the plot reversal of "Fatal ID", plus the historical sense of "Sweet Honey", and finally "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" to make it out again, who else?"

Among them, there are more than 70,000 likes for "water-colored cigarette butts", not to mention the rest, many netizens said that after listening to the summary of water-colored cigarette butts, they feel that there is no one.

Of course, there are also many netizens who are more rational and feel very speechless about this way of summarizing, "There is one thing to say, don't expect too much, I feel that the layer master is killing, how many science fiction films in history can reach these points", "Does the layer owner think that making a movie is building blocks?", "Connotation, reversal, wonderful lines, and a sense of history and beauty, you are thinking about fart." ”......

The analysis emperor always comes early, as if Chu Shun's Weibo was posted less than an hour ago, and a 5,000-word analysis post is forced to appear, saying that there is really such a fast typing speed, what is the analysis emperor if you don't go to be a code farmer?

Five thousand words is too long, excerpt one of the paragraphs -

[Actually, I don't think the liver emperor is confident in making high-budget sci-fi movies, and there is evidence to support my opinion.]

What is the character of the Liver Emperor? Everyone knows that the stone in the legendary toilet is stinky and hard, and he doesn't even do the post-Nima movie roadshow.

Insert a video of Gu Su being interviewed: "When "Sweet Honey" was released, I asked the director, do we really not have to perform? Director Chu said that it was the director's business, you don't care. Then I, as a director, listened to the producer's arrangement, and as a producer, I said that our crew didn't need a roadshow. ”

It can be seen that the Liver Emperor is an old nesting doll, and it was rumored that the Liver Emperor could be connected on the night of the group before, but it was probably all gossip that there was no connection later, not to mention the variety show publicity, and even the basic propaganda was not done.

Now that the movie "The Matrix" was announced before filming started, it is obvious that with such a large investment, the liver emperor is also a bit burdened.

I think we need to be more tolerant of the Liver Emperor, and finally come up with a genius, but don't be dragged down by expectations, as long as there are seven points in "The Matrix", I will watch it twice!

Everyone also knows the situation of domestic science fiction films, so I also admire Chu Shun's ability to leverage such a large amount of money...... ]

The back is an analysis of whether Chu Shun can shoot science fiction well, and the final conclusion is that 50% of the film can be done well, he is really a good hand in the hydrological world, and analyzing it is equivalent to not analyzing.

Chu Shun also saw this analysis, because this product opened the trumpet "I'm not a pit goods", and often answered questions in a forced way, such as asking Yu Min what his private personality was.

Chu Shun raised his hand and replied: "Laxatives, I just had a meal with Sister Min, I have a good personality, and I am very righteous, and I am rushing to pay the bill." ”

No one believes it, so the account has not been exposed yet.

"You are the stone in the toilet, and I am the stone in the sea no matter what. After Chu Shun finished speaking, he received a phone call.

is the former chairman of China Film, and now retired Han Yiping, known as a master in the rivers and lakes.

When Western Film recommended "Fatal ID" to be released in Hollywood, I met a master.

"Is Director Chu going to shoot a sci-fi film? really want to invest 200 million?" Han Yiping said straight to the point.

Americans said of Han Yiping, "His status in China is equivalent to that of Jack Valenty (former president of the Motion Picture Association of America), Lou Worthern (former head of Universal Pictures) and Steven Spielberg combined."

In fact, it is not objective, because Han Yiping likes to train new directors and actors very much, and supports the industrialization of films, so when he learned that Chu Shun invested 200 million US dollars, he called.

"It's true that the script and the actors are pretty much decided. Chu Shun said.

"Which special effects company did you choose?" Han Yiping was mainly concerned about this.

"XF Digital, a company owned by ILM. Chu Shun said, the previous shareholding was successful, after all, special effects companies are burning money, and Chu Shun still has a lot of shares, as for why not buy industrial light and magic directly...... Chu Shun also thought, but unfortunately it's a bit expensive, and the key is that people don't sell it.

Disney, which directly acquired Lucasfilm, is not short of money.

Han Yiping knew about XF Digital, and then put forward a cooperation proposal, and China Film joined the film investment.

Chu Shun originally planned to find China Film to invest, otherwise if it was just a distribution company, it would not be able to spread out such a big publicity, or it would only be a few big companies in Hollywood.

To be honest, without China Film, it is unrealistic for you to completely ignore Hollywood studios to make this money, and China Film has this ability because it has a direct interest relationship with Hollywood companies.

Of course, cooperation is not something that can be decided on the phone, so it is necessary to negotiate on the spot.

"Xiao Gao-" Chu Shun just wanted to call the housekeeper, and then suddenly found that he seemed to be at home, not in the hotel, so he withdrew the words behind him.

Came to the kitchen and made a bowl of egg fried rice, but unfortunately there were no eggs.

Eating fried rice, he began to force answers again.

Following.

Chu Shun led Cheng Si, and Brother Blowing to the headquarters of China Film.

Brother Blowing and Cheng Si were a little nervous, after all, the name of China Film is too huge in the entertainment industry.

"No matter how many times I come, I feel that Zhongying is a little broken, and the more powerful the state-owned enterprises, the more broken the façade. Chu Shun looked at the building and muttered.

"Hello Director Chu, I'm Xiaowen, please go here. Someone came to receive them, a young lady, politely welcomed the three of them into Zhongying.
