Chapter 160: A Woman's Mind Is Hard to Guess (2/5)
Zhang Pu wanted to follow the crew of "Farewell My Concubine" before, not to ensure the quality of the film.
It's to learn more from Jiang Yun in the crew, so as to improve himself.
However, after filming "Loyal Dog Rhubarb", Zhang Pu feels that "doing" is always better than "watching".
After the filming of "Loyal Dog Rhubarb", Zhang Pu has already understood.
Jiang Yun is a director with a unique style and a strong personal style.
His style, Zhang Pu is not suitable.
And Zhang Pu is also a very assertive director, especially when there is the original version as a reference.
Zhang Pu was present, and it was inevitable that there would be disagreements with him, but it was not the point.
He was afraid that he had learned from Jiang Yun and was too influenced by him.
He doesn't want to become "Jiang Yun's second"!
"Loyal Dog Rhubarb" and Jiang Yun had many differences, and when the two couldn't reach a consensus, they were shot according to their ideas for comparison.
In this way, not to mention the time-consuming, laborious and costly, both of them are in response.
And "Loyal Dog Rhubarb" Zhang Pu is the director, and Jiang Yun is just an actor.
Many times, Jiang Yun did not stick to his own opinions and made concessions.
But "Farewell My Concubine" is completely different, Jiang Yun is the director, so if Zhang Pu has a different opinion, will he still back down like "Loyal Dog Rhubarb"?
Zhang Pu knew that he still had many shortcomings, and he could still learn a lot from Jiang Yun.
However, compared with learning from other directors, Zhang Pu now needs to have more of his own things.
After weighing each other's gains and losses, Zhang Pu chose to shoot films to promote his directing ability.
"What about Xiao Xue?" Cai Ya heard the conversation between the two, then looked up at Zhang Pu and asked, "I remember you told the media that Xiao Xue is the heroine of your next movie!"
When Zhang Pu heard this, he glanced at Jiang Yun, and it was not difficult to hear from Cai Ya's mouth that Xiao Xue, the role of Juxian, was afraid that he was nine out of ten.
"I looked for her with the script before, only to know that it might collide. Zhang Pu said, "The script is not this "Nobody", it was kept for her, and it is estimated that filming will start in April or May next year." ”
"Filming starts in April or May?" Jiang Yun frowned again.
"Rest assured, I won't neglect quality for the sake of speed. Zhang Pu naturally knew Jiang Yun's thoughts.
He's a guy who cares about the quality of his films.
So is Zhang Pu.
The reason why Zhang Pu makes movies much faster than ordinary directors is that he has the original version as a reference.
Although it is not a complete copy, it can avoid many detours.
"That's good. The success of your two movies in a row, you have established your reputation. Jiang Yun said, "Word of mouth is not easy to come by, and although it is not necessary to walk on thin ice in the future, you must always be vigilant about yourself." ”
"I know. Zhang Pu said.
A director, no matter how good the reputation he has accumulated, but if he makes a bad movie, then his previous efforts are likely to be in vain.
Good word-of-mouth is the greatest appeal.
If the word of mouth collapses, the blow to the box office appeal will naturally be great.
The box office of "Loyal Dog Rhubarb" came out yesterday, although it has dropped a lot, only nearly 40 million single-day box office, but the cumulative box office easily exceeded 500 million, reaching 530 million.
Although it is not as good as the total box office of "Special Mission" and "Xiang Wang", it is also firmly on the throne of the single-day box office champion.
This can be regarded as a counterattack of a small-budget movie.
"Loyal Dog Rhubarb" can be like this, just relying on the popularity of those topics on the Internet is obviously not enough.
One of the most important reasons is that the film has a good reputation.
The film's reputation will naturally be converted into the director's reputation.
Zhang Pu looked for Cai Ya naturally for the two roles of Gao Xiang and Ma Yiyi.
In addition, the roles of Gao Ming, a real estate developer, and Hu Guangsheng, one of the robbers, also need to be determined as soon as possible.
The actor is determined, and letting him figure out the role as soon as possible is naturally conducive to the subsequent shooting.
Zhang Pu returned to the company from Jiang Yun's house, but met Xu Jiahui.
"Why are you here?" Zhang Pu was stunned for a moment and said.
"Not welcome?" Xu Jiahui pouted.
"It's just a bit of a surprise, you're a busy person right now. Zhang Pu said.
Xu Jiahui is very popular now, especially the success of her concert tour, which has allowed her to gain a firm foothold in the music world, and the name of the little diva is recognized by many people.
Those singers who debuted with her, even today's Huang Ze can't compare to her.
People are popular, there are many announcements, and it is inevitable to run around.
Xu Jiahui is not short of money, but some necessary commercial performances are not easy to shirk.
"I heard my brother say that you are going to make a new film?" Xu Jiahui asked.
"What, interested?" Zhang Pu said with a smile.
This is just a joke, he knows very well that Xu Jiahui is not interested in acting.
It's okay to make a cameo, but it's not okay to play a role with many scenes.
What's more, Xu Jiahui's acting skills... Don't mention it.
"Not interested. Xu Jiahui said, "I just want to know, are you busy? Don't forget, every time the box office of "Loyal Dog Rhubarb" breaks 100 million, you have to release a new song. Now that the box office has broken 500 million, what about the fifth song? And looking at this trend, it is estimated that there is no suspense for your film to break 600 million at the box office, and it may be expected to break 700 million. If you break your word, it will have a great impact on you. ”
"You don't know how fast I write songs. Zhang Pu said with a smile, "The song has been recorded, but I was too busy to upload it." ”
"Oh!"
Xu Jiahui was stunned for a moment, and a trace of loss flashed in her eyes.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Pu felt that Xu Jiahui's mood was wrong, and asked casually.
"Nothing, gone. ”
After Xu Jiahui finished speaking, she forgot about it and left.
"Oh!"
Zhang Pu was a little baffled, but he didn't think much about it.
"It's hard to guess what a woman thinks. Tan Siming shook his head and muttered.
He could see that Xu Jiahui was definitely looking for Zhang Pu, and it was very likely that it was for Zhang Pu's song.
Maybe he thought that Zhang Pu's song hadn't been done yet, and he wanted to help, but he didn't get what he wanted.
Of course, Tan Siming just guessed like this, and he was not sure, so he naturally wouldn't mention it to Zhang Pu.
I can't say it if I am sure of it.
Zhang Pu returned to the office, and immediately uploaded the song to Xunteng Music Network, and posted a Weibo to celebrate the box office of "Loyal Dog Rhubarb" breaking 500 million, and at the same time, the news of the new song upload was sent.
Countless people ran to Xunteng Music Network after reading Zhang Pu's Weibo.
And Xunteng Music Network's response was also extremely fast, and Zhang Pu directly gave an advertising banner as soon as he uploaded the song.
During this time, Xunteng Music Network gained a lot by virtue of the popularity of Zhang Pu's songs, which was far greater than the fee they paid to Zhang Pu.
In the last song, Zhang Pu wrote about his father, and this song is about his mother.
"Mother in the Candlelight", a song sung to mother.
Everyone knows the greatness of mother's love, but not everyone can deeply appreciate it.
When people hear this song, they will always think of their mother with deep feelings, and in the process of listening to the song, they will feel the collision of their hearts, follow the melody of the song, and the figure of their mother will appear in their minds one by one.
