Why did Zhang Pu choose "The Nameless"?

The main thing is to like.

If you don't like it, the box office is high enough, or there are enough awards, Zhang Pu doesn't shoot, but he doesn't mind writing the script for others to shoot.

"Farewell My Concubine" to Jiang Yun, in addition to the fact that he is not confident to shoot it well, I am afraid that he doesn't like this film so much.

A good movie doesn't necessarily make everyone like it.

Of course, there are many movies that Zhang Pu likes, and there is another big reason for choosing "Nobody", that is, this is the most suitable movie that I have thought of.

This is also a small and broad movie, under the premise of no publicity, it won seven or eight billion box office only by word of mouth, which is very experienced.

The investment in this film is not large, and the filming location does not need to go around.

The preparation time is not long.

With the original version as a reference, the shooting cycle and post-production time will not be too long.

"If you have any friends with excellent acting skills, you can recommend it to try. Zhang Pu continued, "The other roles in this film have not yet been decided. However, it is better to be able to speak Sichuan. The film will be dialect-based. ”

When Guo Ji and Huang Ye heard this, they were stunned.

Zhang Pu's current movies, not to mention the popularity of big-name actors, are absolutely irresistible for second- and third-tier actors.

Zhang Pu asked them to recommend, didn't this let them earn favors?

"Is it okay?" asked Guo Ji.

A film, which actor is used, involves a lot.

Zhang Pu's new film will definitely attract many investors.

Now, which investor in the circle doesn't stuff actors?

Not to mention anything else, both actors are suitable for a certain role, one is recommended by the investor, and the other is recommended by himself, who will the director choose?

Even if that director has no shortage of investors, I'm afraid he will choose the former.

"It's okay, I only choose the right actors. Zhang Pu said.

"Nobody" is a low-budget film, Zhang Pu roughly predicted that the budget may be higher than "Loyal Dog Rhubarb", but it is definitely not high.

Thirty million is more than enough.

This money, not to mention that Oriental DreamWorks has money, even if there is no money, Zhang Pu and Xu Jiadong can take it out.

Zhang Pu doesn't mind taking some cakes out, but you can participate in the shares, but don't want to shoehorn the actors in, unless you stuff the actors appropriately.

What's more, those investors may not be interested in knowing that this film is going to catch up with the Spring Festival.

"I have a candidate to recommend the role of Ma Jiaqi. Guo Ji immediately said, "Long Xiaoyun! I don't know if Director Zhang has an impression of this person." ”

"Golden Dragon Shadow Queen Long Xiaoyun?" Zhang Pu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "If she can come, it will naturally be better." ”

Long Xiaoyun can win the Golden Dragon Shadow, and his acting skills are beyond doubt.

What's more, Long Xiaoyun not only won the Golden Dragon Award for actress, but also won many international actresses, and was also shortlisted for the Cannes actress, but he missed it by a narrow margin.

This is definitely an acting school, and he is also suitable for playing Ma Jiaqi in terms of age.

Long Xiaoyun does not accept advertising endorsements, does not participate in variety shows, and does not participate in any movie-related activities.

The acting skills are excellent, but the people are not popular, and the salary is not high.

If the script suits her taste, she can do without her salary.

This is a real actor.

He is low-key and never hype.

In addition, Long Xiaoyun himself is an actor from Bashu, so Sichuan dialect is naturally no problem.

Guo Ji and the others left with the script, and Zhang Pu immediately found Xu Jiadong.

The film is in a hurry, so it naturally needs to race against time.

"Catch up with the Spring Festival stalls?" Xu Jiadong heard Zhang Pu's words and said in surprise, "Is it too late?"

"It shouldn't be a big problem. Zhang Pu said.

"The Spring Festival fight can be extremely intense, and if you are not careful, you are likely to become cannon fodder, especially for small-budget movies. ”

Xu Jiadong looked at Zhang Pu, this guy can't be inflated, right?

A small-budget movie dares to be put in the Spring Festival file, this is looking for death!

Under the crushing of other blockbusters, there has never been a dark horse.

Does Zhang Pu think he can break this "curse"?

Are there any small-budget movies released during the Spring Festival?

Yes!

Every year. But those films simply don't have the right to choose when they will be released.

Zhang Pu is different.

When the film will be released, he has a great right to speak.

Not to mention Oriental DreamWorks, when Huaying released "Crazy Stone", didn't Zhang Pu determine the release time of the film as a newcomer?

"Of course I do!" Zhang Pu said with a smile, "Why, think I'm inflated?"

"I thought you were going to take a break for a while!" Xu Jiadong shook his head and said, "Do you only have movies in your life? ”

Zhang Pu can say such foul words, obviously not inflated.

"Loyal Dog Rhubarb" is still being screened, and I don't know how long it will be before the next screening. But Zhang Pu couldn't wait to start preparing for the new film.

This did surprise Xu Jingai a little.

The company began to operate, and Zhang Pu also began to get busy.

After a brief discussion with Xu Jiadong, Zhang Pu immediately went to Jiang Yun's house.

"Why do you have time to come to me today?" Jiang Yun looked at Zhang Pu and said.

"Loyal Dog Rhubarb" exploded, and Zhang Pu should be very busy.

For example, increase the publicity budget and run around for publicity. "Loyal Dog Rhubarb" won the single-day box office championship, shouldn't it make persistent efforts?

"I'm looking for my wife. Zhang Pu smiled and said.

"Looking for me?" Cai Ya looked at Zhang Pu with some surprise.

"Looking for you to recommend two students with good acting skills, the kind that is not obtrusive to play high school students. Zhang Pu said with a smile.

Playing a high school student is not obtrusive, and the age requirements are naturally not small.

Actors who are young and have good acting skills can go to the film school to find them, which naturally saves time and effort.

Cai Ya is a teacher who teaches acting at the school, and I recommend it to him, which saves time and effort.

"Recommend two students?" Cai Ya frowned and said, "Whose play?"

"Mine. Zhang Pu said.

"Yours?" Jiang Yun looked at Zhang Pu and said, "Are you preparing a new film?"

"Hmm!"

Zhang Pu nodded, there was nothing to hide.

"Isn't it just a few days after the movie was released? Jiang Yun frowned and said.

He felt that Zhang Pu was a little anxious for quick success, could he have been blinded by the success of the previous two movies?

Good movies need to be crafted.

Slow work makes fine work!

"The script for this film actually came out very early. Zhang Pu said, "Later, because of the filming of "Loyal Dog Rhubarb", it was pushed to the present. ”

"What about the script, show me. Jiang Yun said.

Zhang Pu smiled and handed over the script.

He had expected it before he came, and he would not have been prepared.

After a long time, Jiang Yun put down the script, but Cai Ya picked it up again.

"Very nice. When are you going to turn it on?" Jiang Yun asked.

"What December looks like!" Zhang Pu said, "If the time comes, it is estimated that it will be released in the Spring Festival." ”

"In December, what about "Farewell My Concubine"?" Jiang Yun said.

The two films, in terms of shooting time, collided.

"Teacher, you don't want me to join the group, do you?" Zhang Pu said.

He did have plans to follow the crew of "Farewell My Concubine" before, but later gave up.
