When "Wolf Warrior 2" was nearing completion, the Oscars were held.

As Zhang Pu guessed before, this year's Oscar nominations, Chinese films have not received.

However, Zhang Pu still has a nomination.

He was nominated for the Best Adapted Screenplay Award for "The Departed".

This is also the first time that Zhang Pu has been shortlisted for this award.

The Oscar and the Golden Dragon are different.

The Golden Dragon Award for Best Screenplay includes the Best Original Screenplay Award and the Best Adapted Screenplay Award.

And the Oscars are separate.

Zhang Pu was nominated for this award and was also talked about by domestic and foreign media.

"The Departed" was adapted to "Infernal Affairs", and the script of "Infernal Affairs" was also written by Zhang Pu.

In other words, Zhang Pu adapted his own script and was also nominated for the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay.

Just ask you if you are a cow or not?

"Infernal Affairs" is a Hong Kong film, while "The Departed" is a Hollywood film, an authentic American gangster film.

What does this mean?

It shows that Zhang Pu can write different scripts according to different markets.

Such a screenwriter is absolutely hard to find in the world.

Hollywood screenwriters are world-renowned, but can they do it?

It's hard, I'm afraid.

For example, some well-known Hollywood screenwriters want to add Chinese elements to curry favor with the Chinese market, and then ......

Don't mention it, just think about "The Mummy 3" in the previous life or something.

Adding some elements makes people unable to complain, and it is said that it has changed directly.

Can Hollywood's well-known screenwriters write a script for a Chinese-language movie?

Not in the previous life, and the same is true in this world.

This is the power of Zhang Pu.

What's more, "The Departed" was not only shortlisted for the Best Adapted Screenplay Award, but also for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Cut.

This is more than the original version of the shortlisted award for Best Actor, as well as Best Supporting Actor.

"Really not going?" Jiang Xingwen asked Zhang Pu.

"The film is about to finish, you let the crew leave behind and go to Los Angeles to attend the Oscars, and then come back in a hurry to continue filming?" Zhang Pu said, "I'm full." ”

The crew was delayed for a day, and the loss was not small.

Of course, whether it is Zhang Pu or Oriental DreamWorks, it is not impossible to lose.

It's just that Zhang Pu doesn't think it's worth it, especially when the finish is imminent.

Perhaps, it's just that Zhang Pu doesn't think it's worth it.

In Jiang Xingwen's opinion, if he can show up at the Oscars, what is that loss?

He is still like that, not to mention the stars who want to spend money to appear on the Oscar red carpet.

Zhang Pu is not keen on the Oscar appearance, and Jiang Xingwen has no choice.

It's okay not to go.

lest it be said by some people with a heart that "worships foreign countries".

After all, Zhang Pu did not participate in the Golden Dragon Awards ceremony when filming "Wolf Warrior 2", but went to the Oscars, which will inevitably be criticized.

Of course, with the public relations capabilities of Oriental DreamWorks today, that remark will not have any impact on Zhang Pu.

Within two days, "Wolf Warrior 2" was completed, and the situation of the Oscars was also transmitted back to China.

The film won four awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Cut.

is not the biggest winner of this Oscar, but it is also very eye-catching.

It seems to be the same as the original re-Oscar performance.

Among them, Zhang Pu won the Best Adapted Screenplay Award for this film.

He also added another Oscar statuette to Chinese filmmakers.

"Wolf Warrior 2" is set for the summer, and the preliminary publicity is about to begin.

After the completion of the filming, it is naturally impossible to be as low-key as the start of filming.

Oriental DreamWorks held a finale banquet and invited many media to attend.

Although it is the completion of the film, the topic of the Oscars is naturally not a lot of asked.

"Director Zhang won the Best Adapted Screenplay Award, what do you think?" the reporter asked Zhang Pu, "Director Zhang did not participate in this Oscars because of the filming of "Wolf Warrior 2". ”

"It's naturally nice to win an award, but who would think that there are fewer awards? Zhang Pu said with a smile, "As for why I didn't participate, it was indeed because of the filming of "Wolf Warrior 2". ”

"Director Zhang, as the Chinese filmmaker who has won the most Oscars, do you have any experience to share with you?" the reporter asked, "Why do so many people fail to imitate it?"

The movies written by Zhang Pu have repeatedly appeared at the Oscars, which naturally caused a lot of discussion.

There are many people in the circle who follow the trend and imitate, but none of them seem to be very successful.

"Those who learn from me live, and those who resemble me die. Zhang Pu shook his head and said, "There is only one Zhang Pu in Huaxia. ”

Media Reporter: ......

Zhang Pu: Is this a change from the style of the past and no longer humble?

There is only one Zhang Pu in Huaxia!

Hearing this, I felt a sense of arrogance rushing over my face.

However, it is difficult for media reporters to refute.

There is indeed only one Zhang Pu in Huaxia.

Zhang Pu is qualified to say such things.

Who could have that talent and ability?

Don't talk about the same name and surname, so isn't it afraid that there is none?

Perhaps, it is not just "there is only one Zhang Pu in China", but "there is only one Zhang Pu in the world".

"Director Zhang, what is your box office estimate for "Wolf Warrior 2"?" The reporter shifted the topic to "Wolf Warrior 2" and asked, "Will it create a new box office record?"

"You're a little embarrassed for me. Zhang Pu said with a smile, "My estimate of the box office has never been accurate, do you want me to be slapped in the face? However, this film, both in terms of investment cost and action scenes, is much larger than the first one. If the box office does not exceed the first part, it is a failure. ”

How much does "Wolf Warrior" gross?

That's broken 1.9 billion. Then Zhang Pu's expectations for this film are obviously more than two billion.

How much is the box office of two billion?

It doesn't seem to be that much.

Zhang Pu has already had two films that broke two billion before.

For other directors, it may be unattainable. But for Zhang Pu, this is estimated to be the minimum requirement.

In the eyes of everyone, as Zhang Pu himself said, if the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" is not even two billion, it is indeed a failed work.

Zhang Pu's box office estimate is inaccurate?

"The Wandering Earth" proves that Zhang Pu is not inaccurate in estimating the box office, he just says it low every time.

And what about this time?

"I thought you would threaten that the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" would break four billion?"

Zhang Pu sent the reporter away, but Jiang Xingwen walked over and said to him with a smile.

"That's because you don't know me well enough. Zhang Pu said with a smile.

Didn't the Internet say that my Zhang Pu's humility has been around for a long time?

Even if Zhang Pu really feels that the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" will break 4 billion, he will not say it in front of the media.

"When you said 'there is only one Zhang Pu in Huaxia', I thought you had changed the style of the past!" Jiang Xingwen shook his head and said.

Zhang Pu is still humble!

"Are there any celebrities with the same name and surname as me?" Zhang Pu said with a smile.

"It doesn't seem to be true. Jiang Xingwen was stunned for a moment and said.

Zhang Pu's words left him speechless.

In this way, Zhang Pu's words don't seem to be arrogant.

He Jiang Xingwen can come to a sentence: There is only one Jiang Xingwen in Huaxia.

But do others think so?

The finale banquet of "Wolf Warrior 2" still caused a lot of topics.

In particular, Zhang Pu's sentence "There is only one Zhang Pu in Huaxia" has aroused heated discussions on the Internet.

It's just that what many people didn't expect was that no one said that Zhang Pu was arrogant, but he thought it was true.

Since Zhang Pu's debut, the films he directed, the film and television works written by screenwriters, and even the variety shows he planned have been listed by netizens one by one, and with dazzling results, Zhang Pu is worthy of what he said.

As for Zhang Pu's statement that the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" did not exceed the first part, it was a failure, which did not cause much discussion.

If it weren't for the Oriental DreamWorks publicity team pushing behind the scenes, it is estimated that the topic would be smaller.

In the eyes of fans, they think so too.

If the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" does not exceed the first part, it is indeed a failure.

"There is only one Zhang Pu in Huaxia. ”

As soon as Zhang Pu's words came out, it is estimated that he didn't expect it himself, which made his popularity and popularity rise a lot.

The box office appeal is naturally rising.

This topic discussion made Zhang Pu's dazzling achievements hotly discussed by netizens again. This heated discussion made many people suddenly discover that Zhang Pu, who was less than thirty, was so fierce.

It is so powerful that when others find it difficult to compare, then he will become adored.

There are more and more people who regard Zhang Pu as an idol.

However, Zhang Pu did not pay attention to these.

He devoted all his energy to the post-production of "Wolf Warrior 2".

The film has been tentatively scheduled for July 19, and now there are only two months left.

If it weren't for the fact that this film didn't have many post-production special effects, this little time would obviously not be enough.

Zhang Pu has high hopes for the box office of this film, and he strives for excellence when shooting, and the same is true for post-production.

If it really can't catch up with that schedule, it will definitely be postponed.

He told the media that a worse box office than the first part is a failure.

But in his heart, if the box office does not break 4 billion, it will also be a failure.

The original box office is more than 5 billion.

Zhang Pu didn't expect to win the box office as high as the original version, not to mention breaking 5 billion, breaking 4 billion should also be broken, right?

Of course, the original version was shot in 3D, this version is not.

The domestic box office of "The Wandering Earth" is nearly one billion less than the original version, and there may be many reasons, but there are no reasons for this.

The original is also a 3D version.

Regardless of the visuals, there is a gap in ticket prices.

In fact, there is already 3D technology in this world, but IMAX-3D technology is not mature enough, and there is no film like "Avatar" that detonates the world.

Zhang Pu spent money on special effects companies, and a large part of them was researching IMAX-3D technology.

If possible, Zhang Pu doesn't mind being the first to eat crabs.

Of course, "The Wandering Earth" is much better at the box office abroad than the original. In particular, although the North American box office did not break 100 million US dollars, it also won more than 80 million US dollars.

This box office has exceeded everyone's expectations.

The reason why there is such a big difference obviously has a lot to do with the distribution.
