Who is more powerful, Zhang Ke or Jiang Yun?

The debate on this matter has not stopped on the Internet.

When did this debate begin?

Maybe "Farewell My Concubine" won the Cannes Palme d'Or, and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was shortlisted for the Oscars.

And the most heated controversy is undoubtedly when "Parasite" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" met at the Golden Dragon Awards.

Which of the two is more powerful?

Who said it clearly.

Both have many supporters, one moment this one prevails, the other one prevails.

There was no winner at all.

This time, Jiang Yun became the first Chinese filmmaker to win the Oscar for Best Director with "Parasite", and instantly gained the upper hand.

This is not the first time Zhang Pu has encountered this problem.

"A director is not a film that can judge his level. Zhang Pu said, "Director Zhang Ke and my teacher are more powerful, I guess they don't know." The two of them have been friends for decades. ”

"As for the teacher, he won the Oscar for Best Director, but Director Zhang didn't. Zhang Pu said with a smile, "What is the reason for this? The two films are not the first edition, and the competitors are different." Even if they compete together, the one who wins the award is really more powerful? At most, it is more favored by the jury. ”

Who is more powerful, Zhang Ke or Jiang Yun?

There's really no comparison.

"Then how do you compare to the two directors, Zhang Ke and Jiang Yun?" asked a reporter.

"I'm definitely far inferior, there's still a lot to learn. Zhang Pu said with a smile.

This is really not modest.

Zhang Pu knows very well that he is still a long way from Zhang Ke and the two of them as directors.

"Chinese films have been shortlisted for the Oscars for two consecutive years, and they have all won. Many people say that Chinese movies have risen and can compete with Hollywood. The reporter asked, "What does Director Zhang think of this statement?"

"The person who says this must be an outsider. Zhang Pu shook his head and said, "In my opinion, there is still a lot of distance between Chinese movies and Hollywood. Not to mention, there are very few Chinese-language films that can achieve a good box office in North America, while most Hollywood movies can achieve high box office in China. Hollywood has an extremely mature system, while China does not. ”

won two Oscars and won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, and Chinese films have risen?

Don't be funny!

But is there anyone who thinks so?

There must be, and there are quite a few.

It's just that they didn't find out that these two movies were written by Zhang Pu?

Why did Zhang Pu win the Oscar for Best Screenplay?

That's because he hung up.

He has countless classics from his past life in his mind.

And with a bit of luck.

What about the others?

Other Chinese-language films can't even get a shortlisted award!

"Parasite" won three Oscars, and all of them were heavyweights.

Isn't it amazing?

Naturally, it's amazing.

Is Zhang Pu happy?

He was happy, but not very excited.

Perhaps, his joy comes from turning a Korean movie into a Chinese movie, and it has been a great success.

After Zhang Pu sent the reporter away, he immediately continued to shoot his own film.

For Jiang Yun to win the Oscar for Best Director, Zhang Pu still has a little envy in his heart.

It's a pity that he knows very well that if he shoots "Parasite" by himself, I am afraid that he may not even be able to get a nomination.

Take your time, you're still young anyway.

"Parasite" won three Oscars, which is obviously not going to be able to get over for a while.

When Jiang Yun and others return to China, a new round of topics will definitely be set off.

"Do you think Director Jiang will call Director Zhang?"

After today's filming, the crew went home from work, and Wang Bo asked Zhang Pu with a smile.

The topic of "Parasite" is estimated to be hotly discussed in the entire film circle today.

Why did Jiang Yun call Zhang Ke?

Go without saying.

"What a fart call!" Zhang Pu pouted and said, "Director Zhang is the guest of honor at this year's Oscars." Calling hard, where is the coolness in front of it?"

When Wang Bo heard this, he smiled.

Zhang Ke and Jiang Yun are very close to each other, and people in the circle know a lot.

Comparing the two on the Internet, the cause is not necessarily this.

"Do you think I have a chance to get the best cinematography with this film?" Wang Bo changed the topic and asked.

It is estimated that someone else won the award and stimulated him.

"Why? If you don't win a best cinematography, you don't plan to become a director?" Zhang Pu said.

Wang Bo mentioned it before, but then it was gone.

"Didn't think about it. Wang Bo said.

"Then think slowly. Zhang Pu said.

Whether you are a photographer or a director, how Wang Bo chooses, Zhang Pu doesn't ask, just give support.

Jiang Yun and others returned to China, and after a few days of related topics, they gradually faded.

Huang Ye and others also benefited a lot from starring in this film.

Now it can be said that there are many invitations.

"Coming?" Zhang Pu said with a smile, "I thought you would have to wait for a while!"

"I took over Director Jia's new film, and I'm going to join the crew every once in a while. Huang Ye said.

He made a cameo appearance as a mud bodhisattva in "The Storm and the Clouds Dominate the World".

This is what he proposed himself, the same as Chen Huatao.

"Director Jia Bo?" asked Zhang Pu.

Huang Ye nodded.

"Director Jia Bo actually found you. Zhang Pu said with some surprise, "The opportunity is rare, and the little golden figures may be waving to you." Director Jia Bo is absolutely second to none in this. ”

Huang Ye smiled, but did not answer.

People think that they are not as good as Jia Bo in digging out the acting skills of actors, you can't be stupid and continue!

Huang Ye's acting skills are good, and he works hard enough.

He can achieve today's results, perhaps thanks to Zhang Pu's contributions, but it is not without his own efforts.

Jia Bo's film is not very good at the box office, but it is the best actor!

The actors who have worked with him, even if they don't win awards, their acting skills have been greatly improved.

Huang Ye's appearance is definitely of great benefit to him.

As for why Jia Bo found Huang Ye, Zhang Pu was not much interested.

Maybe you like Huang Ye's title of "Seven Billion Actor", maybe the role is suitable for Huang Ye, or maybe there is investment from Oriental DreamWorks......

There are not many scenes of mud bodhisattvas, but the weight is not light.

Huang Ye's appearance is actually not a cameo, but a "friendship appearance", or a "special appearance".

"Jin Lin is a thing in the pool, and he will turn into a dragon when he encounters a storm. ”

"The Nine Dragons are shocking, and the wind and clouds will swim in shallow water!"

These two sentences can be said to run through the whole film, and this is the mouth of the mud bodhisattva.

The whole story actually revolves around this sentence.

Huang Ye stayed in the crew for more than a week before leaving.

He doesn't have many scenes, but there are indoor scenes and exterior scenes. If it weren't for this, it is estimated that he would have been able to finish filming his scene in one day.

Two days after he left, "Infernal Affairs" was released!

"Do you say that the box office of "Infernal Affairs" can break one billion?" Wang Bo sat next to Zhang Pu with a boxed lunch and asked.

When he asked, the others looked at him curiously.

It's not that they don't have a deaf ear to what's going on outside the window, and the May 1st hit "Infernal Affairs" has naturally heard of it.

What's more, this is still a movie invested and produced by their company.

"I'm not a god!" Zhang Pu pouted, "Don't you know that my box office estimate is very poor?"

"Didn't you set a small goal for this film?" Wang Bo said with a smile.

Zhang Pu's box office estimate is indeed not very good.

Zhang Pu's small goal is now on fire again.

During the promotion of "Infernal Affairs", once asked about the box office expectations of this film.

"I am satisfied if I can achieve the small goal of director Zhang Pu!"

It sounds very modest, but people who know what Zhang Pu's small goal is, they won't think so.

Billion box office?

It's not that easy to achieve.

That's not a low expectation.

But as soon as the word "small goal" came out, it seemed that this expectation was not so unattainable, and it was out of reach!

Naturally, no one will think that the person who said this is wishful thinking.

Is "Infernal Affairs" expected to break one billion box office?

Yes!

This is the evaluation of its box office in the circle.

This film gathers many big-name actors in Xiangjiang, and the script is also out of Zhang Pu's hands.

If it is difficult for this film to break one billion, will Xiangjiang Films still have a chance to break one billion box office?

This may also be one of the reasons why the main creator is so active in publicity.

And at the beginning of the film's release, almost all the actors from Xiangjiang recommended this movie on Weibo.

There seems to be a united posture.

Whether "Infernal Affairs" can break one billion is the attention of countless people in the circle.

The person who wants to ask Zhang Pu this is not only Wang Bo.

"It's not my movie. Zhang Pu said.

"That's the film you wrote and you invested in. Wang Bo said, "This movie is marked by you." Is it true that the film he directs is his own?"

The films written by Zhang Pu are undoubtedly marked by him.

The name of tens of billions of screenwriters is well-known.

What's more, when "Infernal Affairs" was chosen, Zhang Pu's screenwriter was also the focus of publicity.

"It's not impossible for this film to break a billion. Zhang Pu thought for a while and said.

Market background, cast, film quality......

By all accounts, this film is expected to break a billion.

Not only Zhang Pu thinks so, but perhaps many people in the circle think so.

But a billion is not so easy to break.

The schedule of "Infernal Affairs" is the most in the same schedule, as high as 23%.

If this is the case, it can't break a billion, and it can only be said to be fate.

On Friday, April 30, "Infernal Affairs" was released.

Weekend plus May Day holiday, the absolute peak of movie-watching.

"What's the matter?"

The next day, Zhang Pu had just finished filming a scene and was watching the playback, but he saw Tan Siming walking forward and stopped talking.

"The first-day box office statistics of "Infernal Affairs" are out. Tan Siming said.

"How much?"

Zhang Pu asked casually, but his eyes were still looking at the replay shot.

"More than 170 million! Tan Siming said.

"Hmm!" Zhang Pu nodded, but ignored it.

Tan Siming looked puzzled, why didn't he react, shouldn't it!

And the person next to him showed more surprise.

The company is afraid that there will be another film that will break the box office of one billion.

"How much?"

Suddenly, Zhang Pu seemed to react and looked at Tan Siming.

More than 170 million?

This was undoubtedly unexpected by Zhang Pu.

Could it be that his character has exploded again?
