Now that March is still half a year away, there is no need to rush the wedding preparations.

Guo Yunxi also had to shoot "Resident Evil" first.

Of course, this film has been prepared for a while, and the start of shooting is imminent.

And Zhang Chu's schedule is also very full.

For this reason, he had to postpone all the work after the year.

Years ago, he was both busy and Guo Yunxi.

"What about you?" Jiang Xingwen asked Zhang Pu with a smile, "Your brother will get married in the future, have you ever thought about when you will get married?"

"Let's talk about it!" Zhang Pu shook his head and said.

Jiang Xingwen smiled and didn't ask.

Zhang Pu obviously thought about it, but since he didn't want to say it, there was no need to ask.

Zhang Chu is married, Zhang Pu has less shields, and the army of marriage will come to the city sooner or later, how can he not think about it.

"Are you really going to make an animated film for your next film?" Jiang Xingwen continued.

"What, you're really not optimistic?" Zhang Pu said with a smile.

Animated films are really not very good in China.

Is there really no market?

Apparently not, and the market potential is high.

This can be seen from the domestic box office of Hollywood animated films.

"There's still a lot of potential for animated films. Jiang Xingwen shook his head and said.

Zhang Pu wants to get the animation department, how could Jiang Xingwen not have studied it.

It's not that the domestic animated film market has no potential, but that those domestic animated films are not powerful.

Of course, it is not denied that many fans subconsciously think that "animation" is for children.

There is a need for a high-quality animated film in China to break this perception of those fans.

If Zhang Pu makes an animated film that can be compared to Hollywood this time, it may be able to become an image-level film like "The Wandering Earth".

That box office must be impressive.

Is this possible?

There must be.

Zhang Pu's films have always been known for their quality.

"The Wandering Earth" opened the door to science fiction in China, so the box office has increased a lot.

So if Zhang Pu's next film opens the door to Chinese animated films, why is it impossible to become an image-level film?

With the blessing of such a gimmick, will the box office of the film be poor?

"How's Journey to the West?" Zhang Pu suddenly asked.

This TV series is not short.

"Yanjing Satellite TV and Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV started broadcasting at the same time on New Year's Day. Jiang Xingwen said, "In addition, several video websites have also bought copyrights. ”

"You didn't lose money, did you?" Zhang Pu said.

"Earned some. However, the investment cost is somewhat high, and the profit is not very much. Jiang Xingwen said, "However, if the TV series is popular, overseas copyrights should still sell a lot." ”

Many of Oriental DreamWorks' TV series have sold overseas rights.

Among them, "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" is sold with the highest copyright fee.

Of course, this is true if we do not take into account factors such as rising prices.

"It's good that you don't pay for it. This TV series is not meant to make money. It's just laying the foundation for the big IP of Journey to the West. Zhang Pu nodded and said.

The investment cost of "Journey to the West" directly set a new record for the production cost of TV dramas.

Of course, after all, it is a TV series, and the special effects in it cannot be done according to the standards of the movie. But even so, the special effects of this TV series have definitely raised the special effects of domestic TV series by more than one notch.

I'm afraid that the special effects of many movies are inferior to this TV series.

Guaranteed quality, regardless of the cost!

These were Zhang Pu's words at the beginning.

Of course, whether it is Jiang Xingwen or Su Yuan, it is impossible not to calculate the cost.

The cost of filming and production of "Journey to the West" is too high, and the asking price of a single episode of the TV series is naturally not low, and even directly broke the record of the price of a single episode of the TV series.

And this is also the reason why two TV stations broadcast at the same time.

Perhaps, a TV station is not small.

Of course, you can get that much money, but the risk is too great, and you need to share it with other TV stations.

"What about cartoons?" Zhang Pu then asked.

"After the TV series became popular, the price of cartoons must be more negotiable. Jiang Xingwen said.

Zhang Pu nodded.

Cartoons and TV series are broadcast at the same time, which is clearly inappropriate.

Even if the target audience is different.

"It will be released on the day the TV series starts. Jiang Xingwen said.

"The TV series starts at night and is released during the day?" Zhang Pu asked.

Jiang Xingwen nodded, which will undoubtedly promote the ratings of TV dramas.

Zhang Pu's fame is not small, not to mention his popularity, his is still very attractive. Even if it's one of his fans, it's amazing enough.

And those who have watched it will definitely be interested in the TV series that will be broadcast in the evening.

mentioned this, Zhang Pu took the time to watch two episodes out of curiosity.

The quality is pretty good, especially the special effects inside.

Of course, Zhang Pu doesn't expect to create a ratings miracle for the 86 version of "Journey to the West". However, it should have higher ratings than those versions of the later remakes.

Whether this is the case or not, we will only know after the broadcast.

Zhang Pu has high hopes for this IP, but more energy is still put into the movie.

"Embarrassing Detective" was released for a month, and finally won nearly 1.6 billion box office, becoming the biggest dark horse in the National Day file.

The popularity of this film has made Oriental Dreamworks' goal of 10 billion box office this year no suspense.

"Embarrassing Detective" was released, but the promotion of "Jumanji 2" gradually unfolded.

The film will be released simultaneously worldwide.

Although the second part of this series is no longer directed by Zhang Ke, and Zhang Pu is only involved in the screenwriting, compared with the first part, it has a game bonus.

The game has taken the world by storm and the number of players is extremely large.

These players are clearly potential consumers of the film.

And "Resident Evil" started filming immediately after some preparations.

Zhang Pu participated in the press conference of the film as a screenwriter.

He didn't want to participate, because he knew very well that if he was there, it was estimated that Jiang Bin would have nothing to do.

He is reluctant to steal this kind of limelight.

Still, he participated.

One is to increase the momentum of the film, and the other is to give Jiang Bin a platform.

"There are rumors that this "Resident Evil" was tailor-made by Director Zhang for Guo Yunxi, is this really the case?"

When it came to reporters' questions, Zhang Pu unsurprisingly bore the brunt.

"If it is tailor-made, the director of this film is me, not Director Jiang. Zhang Pu said with a smile, "The company wants to make a heroine movie, and it just so happened that Director Jiang returned from Hollywood and signed a contract with Oriental DreamWorks, and he had directed zombie movies in Hollywood, so I wrote the script of "Resident Evil". ”

"Zombie movies still account for a significant proportion of Hollywood films, and this type of film is also one of the most popular film genres in the world. Zhang Pu continued, "And there is a shortage of such films in China." I believe that this kind of film will have great potential in the domestic market. ”

In addition, Oriental DreamWorks is gradually developing internationally, so in terms of film genres, it will gradually integrate with the global market. This is true for the upcoming "Jumanji", "Jurassic Park" directed by Moon Ho, and my "Transformers" ......"

Zhang Pu denied that "Resident Evil" was tailor-made for Guo Yunxi.

There aren't many people to believe.

However, the journalists did not dwell on this issue.

"Director Zhang, is "Resident Evil" a series of movies?"

When this film was being prepared, it was inevitable that some news would come out. Of course, some of them were unintentionally released, and some of them were intentionally released by the company.

"The film has a good box office, and it is not ruled out that it will be made into a series of films. Zhang Pu nodded and said.

Whether it will be a series of movies is determined by the market, not the script written a few.

"What are the considerations for Director Zhang to let Guo Yunxi star in this series of movies?"

A reporter suddenly asked, listening to his meaning, it seems that Guo Yunxi can star in this movie, all because of his personal relationship with Zhang Pu.

"I'm not the director of this film. Zhang Pu said with a smile, "This question should be asked to Director Jiang." ”

Guo Yunxi, the heroine, is Zhang Puding, but she will definitely not admit it at this time.

Among the many actresses in the company, she is the most suitable, so naturally she was chosen. Jiang Bin said with a smile.

The first female and the second female in this play were not chosen by him. But at this time, it was not what he chose, but he had to choose.

He is the director of this film.

Of course, in terms of actor selection, he, as a director, still has a lot of say.

The other actors are basically selected by him.

Guo Yunxi is now one of the most box office appealing actresses in China.

Even if she doesn't have a personal relationship with Zhang Pu, she is fully qualified to star in such a film.

At the film press conference, Zhang Pu was the absolute focus.

However, media reporters will not revolve around Zhang Pu alone, and soon turned their target to Han Xiaotong.

Han Xiaotong is not a signed artist of Oriental DreamWorks, but she got the second female lead in this film.

How she got the role, the reporters were not interested.

Who doesn't know that Han Xiaotong's background is amazing, although her background has always been a mystery. Can her background relationship, isn't it easy to get a female number two role in Oriental DreamWorks?

Before, didn't she also get the resident guest of "Ace vs. Ace"?

They are interested in why Han Xiaotong, who is the "absolute heroine", would take on the role of such a female number two?

Hasn't she only played the heroine since her debut?

Perhaps the word "pick-up" is not so appropriate. It is very likely that this role was recommended by Han Xiaotong rather than invited.

"I like it!"

The reason given by Han Xiaotong made the reporters speechless.

Is it really because you like the character?

Apparently not!

When she took the film, she hadn't even gotten the script.

I don't know what the role is, what do you like or dislike?

This role is because of Li Yixin's relationship that Xu Jiadong wants to come.

If she pushes back, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get roles in other dramas of Oriental DreamWorks in the future.

Connected, more I still want to take advantage of this to connect with Oriental DreamWorks.

What's more, she also knows that she has no role at all in the female number one of Oriental DreamWorks' big productions.

However, after getting the script, she really liked the role.

Although she is a second female, her role may not be less than that of a female first.

It's a brilliant character.

The only regrettable estimate is that this character hung up in the end.
