Zhang Pu came back from the crew of "Chen Fei'er in Wonderland" and did not stay for a few days, but had to go to Los Angeles again.

"Why are you going to the United States again all of a sudden?" Xu Jiahui asked suspiciously.

During the National Day, she took over a lot of activities, and she just came back to rest for a few days and take time to accompany Zhang Pu more. But Zhang Pu suddenly wanted to go to Los Angeles again.

"It's a movie thing. Zhang Pu sighed and said, "The director and the producer have different opinions, and no one can convince anyone, and then the trouble came to me, and I had to go over to solve it." This film is related to the layout of the back. ”

Blair and Mark have different opinions about starring in "Iron Man".

The two couldn't hold each other, and then they brought the "lawsuit" to Zhang Pu.

Of course, in addition to Zhang Pu being the boss, but also because he is the screenwriter of that movie.

Zhang Pu is also a director himself, and his opinions naturally carry a lot of weight.

"Then how long will you stay this time?" Xu Jiahui asked, "How much luggage do you bring?"

"If it goes well, it won't stay for a few days. Zhang Pu said with a smile, "You don't have to worry about it, I'll just clean it up myself." ”

Zhang Pu's trip to Los Angeles did not entail many people, and Tan Siming was alone.

Blair and Mark's film protagonist have an argument, and it is not clear why Zhang Pu is exact.

However, after coming, Zhang Pu knew about it.

The actor Mark fancied had a scandal, which is somewhat similar to the original actor.

If this kind of actor is in China, it is basically cool, if he wants to make a comeback, it is basically impossible, and if he wants to regain his glory, it is even more impossible.

But in the United States and in Hollywood, there are actually not many such star artists, and it is not impossible for them to become popular or even go further.

Of course, they need to "turn back" and "change their ways".

And that's what Mark fancies.

used to be a smash hit, because he touched that thing and was thrown into the dust because of a scandal, and now that he came out, the prodigal son turned back and wanted to make a comeback, but he fell, where is it so easy to get up.

He has taken on a lot of plays, and although his career has improved, it has long since disappeared.

There is undoubtedly a certain risk in such an actor.

However, if such an actor is pushed to the pinnacle of his career again, the impact will also be excellent. Of course, Mark chose this actor not because of this, but because the actor fits the role very well.

But Blair disagrees, is there no suitable one among the many Hollywood big names?

Warwick Pictures is now backed by Oriental DreamWorks and Wanhui Group, which can be described as wealthy, and it is not that it can't afford to invite those big names.

Why look for an actor with a stain?

This is not a good thing for the film.

The image of the actor has a great impact on the box office of the film.

"Call the actors over and audition, and I'll see. Zhang Pu thought for a while and said.

Blair and Mark are not at the same angle, and this is obviously not a simple question of who is right and who is wrong.

Mark is the director, starting from the character, while Blair is the producer, starting from the film as a whole.

"Good!" Mark replied with a nod.

He supported the actor, so much that he didn't have any selfish motives.

Blair stopped talking.

"It's a series of movies. Zhang Pu said with a smile, "If your wrist is too big, it's not necessarily a good thing." ”

Blair nodded.

Zhang Pu wants to create a movie world, and the role of Iron Man is signed in several films.

The price of those big names is not low.

And in the contract, there is also the issue of priority shooting.

If the schedule hits, will those big names give priority to filming their company's dramas?

Such a contract, those big names may not sign.

The actor arrived quickly.

Zhang Pu is very famous in China, and he is not unknown in Hollywood, especially as a screenwriter, there are very few people in the circle who don't know.

What's more, Zhang Pu became the new boss of Warwick Pictures, which caused a lot of waves in Hollywood.

For a down-and-out actor, this kind of opportunity is still very rare.

Jeff Howard is nearly forty years old, and his handsomeness exudes a bit of the charm of a mature man.

When Zhang Pu saw it, his eyes suddenly lit up.

This person's image and temperament are very similar to the original actors, but when facing them, he is a little more restrained.

However, at the beginning of acting, it was immediately like a different person.

Zhang Pu feels that this guy is Tony Stark's possession.

"What about your candidate?" Zhang Pu asked with a smile as he looked at Blair.

Zhang Pu actually agrees with Mark's choice, but shop around, what if there is a better candidate?

Of course, Zhang Pu doesn't think there is a better fit than Howard.

He asked, but only in consideration of Blair's feelings.

"I can't come, I'm filming outside. Blair shook his head.

His candidate is a Hollywood celebrity, and the schedule is naturally very full.

"Are you sure he can sign the contract?" Zhang Pu then asked.

Blair was silent.

He wasn't sure.

Hollywood's big names, in the face of a contract like a film and television company, are really unlikely.

"Then use Jeff Howard!" Zhang Pu said immediately, "This actor is very compatible with the character in the film." Bringing an actor who has fallen to the bottom to the top is actually quite interesting. ”

Blair sighed and nodded.

He knows very well that Zhang Pu is a director, and it is understandable that he is biased towards the director.

But even if his candidate is better, if the contract is not signed, it will definitely affect the follow-up filming.

Then you have to give up.

What's more, his candidate may not be better.

The protagonist has been decided, and other characters have also been determined.

Among them, judging from Zhang Pu's aesthetics, the heroine is more beautiful than the original, well, and younger.

At least it seems.

In the whole film, there are actually no big-name actors.

In "Iron Man", many actors sign a series, and one sign is several plays.

Even if it's a supporting role.

"Why bother looking for the role of a bodyguard. Zhang Pu looked at Mark with a smile and said, "Isn't it okay for you to make a cameo directly." ”

Mark is tall and strong, and he has a cameo appearance as the protagonist's bodyguard, which is completely fine.

And the original director also seems to have made a cameo in this role.

Even if he didn't continue to direct "Iron Man" later, he still starred.

"Me?" Mark was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Gotta give money!"

Mark really hadn't played a cameo role in his film before, but when Zhang Pu said this, he became interested.

When Zhang Pu and Blair heard this, they smiled.

Giving money is also due.

A cameo role, can you ask for more?

The dispute between Blair and Mark, the producer and director, was resolved the day after Zhang Pu arrived.

However, he did not leave immediately, but stayed for several days.

He auditioned for other actors and exchanged some thoughts on the film with Mark.

Then, he left and returned to China.

Mark is the director recommended by Blair himself, and the two argued for the film, and Zhang Pu would not worry about any conflicts between the two after he left.

Zhang Pu returned to China, "Ghost Blowing the Lantern 3" has been released for more than half a month, with a box office of more than 2 billion, and the final box office is estimated to be almost the same as the previous one.

This box office is still extremely good.

It's just that the cost of filming has increased, and the money is not as much as the first two films.

However, this box office also met expectations.

This film has also been released abroad one after another, and the box office performance seems to be better than the first two.

"The fourth part of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is estimated to be slowed down. Jiang Xingwen said to Zhang Pu.

"Slow down?" Zhang Pu nodded and said, "It's okay to slow down, and it's not necessarily a good thing to shoot one after another." Movie fans are also prone to aesthetic fatigue. ”

"The main thing is that there is a problem with Director Xu Ming's schedule. Jiang Xingwen said, "He took another film. ”

"Normal!" Zhang Pu said with a smile, "If I direct two films in a row, it is inevitable that I will be a little less passionate, and it is good to change my taste." ”

"In addition, the post-production of "Resident Evil" is completed, and I asked Jiang Bin what he meant, he wants to shoot "Resident Evil 2" first, and then "Transformers 2". Jiang Xingwen said.

The post-production of "Resident Evil" is slow, which has nothing to do with Jiang Bin's strict requirements.

However, the effect presented is still worth it.

Of course, slow is only relative.

Nowadays, the special effects company under Oriental DreamWorks is still very busy.

Not to mention the special effects production of films outside the company, there are a lot of them within the company.

"I guess it's because "Transformers" puts a lot of pressure on him. Jiang Xingwen saw Zhang Pu looking over, and then said.

"It's better to shoot "Resident Evil 2" first. Zhang Pu said with a smile.

This is not just for Jiang Bin to "practice", but also because "Resident Evil" is also a related game.

The continuous shooting of the film undoubtedly has a greater promotion effect on the game.

It's just that no one expected that the plan couldn't catch up with the changes.

"You're going to be a father?" Zhang Pu looked at Zhang Chu with a smile on his face and said with some surprise.

"When did you find out?" Xu Jiahui looked at Guo Yunxi and asked.

"I didn't come this month's period, so I tested it with a pregnancy test today. Guo Yunxi said with a smile, "Then I went to the hospital to confirm." ”

The accuracy of the pregnancy test is not so high, and the pregnancy will generally be confirmed by going to the hospital for further confirmation.

"Congratulations. Xu Jiahui said with a smile, "Then you should try to work as little as possible in the past few months, don't be too tired." ”

"Yes!"

Zhang Pu and Zhang Chu nodded.

"In addition to promoting "Resident Evil", everything else that can be pushed has been pushed. Guo Yunxi nodded and said.

The risk of miscarriage in the first trimester is much greater than in the second and third trimesters.

"Today, Lao Jiang is still telling me that Jiang Bin is preparing for "Resident Evil 2", and now it seems that this film has to be postponed. Zhang Pu said with a smile.

"Preparing for "Resident Evil 2"?" Guo Yunxi was stunned for a moment, and then said, ""Resident Evil has not been released yet, and you are starting to prepare for a sequel?

"There is a game of the same name, as long as the first part does not lose money, or does not lose much, then the follow-up film will continue to be filmed. Zhang Pu said, "However, I have watched the finished film, and it should not be possible to lose money, the question is only how much I make." ”
