Xu Jiahui went to the Oscars to be plated with a layer of gold and came back, and her status in the circle naturally rose.

The first Chinese singer to appear on the Oscar stage.

It's a good qualification.

What's more, Xu Jiahui already has the name of a little diva, and now there is a faint tendency to get rid of the word "small", if you put a layer of gold on "The Voice", it is estimated that the word "small" will be thrown off.

Whether it is the first season or the second season of "The Voice of China", the four mentors have a high position.

If Xu Jiahui serves as a mentor with them, invisibly, her status will naturally be elevated to the same level as them.

Xu Jiahui did not refuse Zhang Pu's proposal, but she did not agree immediately.

Now, the second season has just begun, and it's still early before the third season.

Time ends in a hectic state.

At the beginning of September, "Parasite", which was released for more than a month, was painted, with a cumulative box office of nearly 900 million, a long way from the billion mark.

However, this box office is not much higher than expected.

And the box office of this film in China is also extremely good.

Of course, compared with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", it is much worse.

But Oriental DreamWorks is still making a lot of money.

Those film and television companies that participated in this film undoubtedly followed suit.

This has made many film and television companies participate in "The Wandering Earth" again.

For this film, the preliminary preparation is time-consuming and laborious, and the shooting is estimated to be unknown yet.

"Parasite" was painted, and Oriental DreamWorks finally did not take over the film.

This has come as a relief to many film and television companies.

From the end of last year, starting from Zhang Pu's "A Chinese Ghost Story" to today's "Parasite", for most of the year, the entire film industry has been in the shadow of Oriental DreamWorks.

Now, I can finally give others a little way to live.

It's just a pity that Oriental DreamWorks didn't take advantage of this momentum to seek a listing.

"Is "Looking for the Dragon" still released on Christmas and New Year's Day?" Jiang Xingwen asked Zhang Pu.

According to today's progress, Zhang Pu's film will definitely be completed by the end of the year.

"Okay!" Zhang Pu nodded.

Christmas and New Year's Day schedules are actually not bad.

Christmas does not have a holiday in China, but the festive atmosphere is still very strong when it is promoted by businesses, especially among young people.

And young people are the largest group of movie fans.

Therefore, the Christmas period is also a peak period for movie-watching in China.

"Then it's still arranged for Lin Mu's film to be released during the Spring Festival?" Jiang Xingwen then asked.

Zhang Pu nodded.

Comedies still have a great advantage in the Spring Festival.

The first part of the "Embarrassment" series, "People in Embarrassment", may be due to the box office, but Zhang Pu did not write it.

Although it is a series, it is definitely two different stories with no connection in any way.

Filming "Thai Embarrassment" directly, naturally there will be no problems.

"What about Ip Man?" Zhang Pu asked casually.

The film may also be post-produced before "Thai Embarrassment".

"My opinion is that it will be arranged on May Day next year, or in the summer. Jiang Xingwen said, "With the popularity accumulated by "Jingwu Heroes", it would be a bit of a waste if it was arranged in an unpopular schedule." ”

The original cast of "Jingwu Heroes" has a new work "Ip Man", Zhang Pu and Yuan Hong cooperate again, and the box office appeal is still very good.

The box office competitiveness of "Ip Man" is not weak.

Since it is not weak, there is no need to put it in the unpopular schedule.

"Director Jiang's "Truman's World" is estimated to start filming at the end of the year, and Wen Hao's "The Wandering Earth" will be filmed before the end of the year, and as for the release, it is even more difficult to say. Jiang Xingwen said.

Large-scale production, whether it is pre-preparation or post-production, the cycle is not short.

On the contrary, the shooting time is not much different from other films.

"Is the cast of 'Truman's World' decided?" Zhang Pu then asked.

"The company's meaning is to let Shen Ran go up. Jiang Xingwen said, "However, we will not be able to decide until Shen Ran comes back and auditions." ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Pu nodded, not saying more.

Shen Ranhe is not suitable, Jiang Yun has the final say.

Oriental DreamWorks films give priority to the company's contracted artists, which is a basic principle.

But if there is no one in the company who is suitable, then it will not be hard.

Everything is considered from the movie itself.

"There are a lot of directors who want to work with you?" Jiang Xingwen said.

"Script?" Zhang Pu said.

The director cooperated with him, in addition to asking for the script, did he still want to ask Zhang Pu to score him or not?

Jiang Xingwen nodded.

"Push it!" Zhang Pu shook his head and said, "My script should be left to the company's director as much as possible!"

Why do so many directors come to the door?

It is estimated that it is not unrelated to the start of filming of "Infernal Affairs".

The director of this film has no friendship with Zhang Pu.

In fact, many people know that the director of "Infernal Affairs" has no friendship with Zhang Pu, but the two leading actors have an extraordinary relationship with him.

Needless to say, Chen Huatao is married, and Zhang Pu is the best man.

And Zhou Chaohua saved "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" at the beginning, which is a favor.

But no matter what, Zhang Pu's script is not the director of Oriental DreamWorks, and he still has the opportunity to direct.

Opportunities, naturally, need to be fought for.

What if you get it?

Not to mention achieving the same results as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", even half of it is good.

Zhang Pu actually has a lot of scripts, and he writes them when he has time.

He couldn't shoot it.

It is impossible for several directors of the company to shoot it.

But Zhang Pu is not ready to cooperate with others. Even the company's director may not have been filming the script he wrote later.

If you can't finish filming the script in your head, then you can't finish it!

Zhang Pu doesn't have to finish the film in his mind.

He couldn't finish writing either.

Perhaps, he may not be able to shoot it himself later.

He writes scripts when he has time, but he doesn't blindly copy them, no matter whether he makes changes or not, Zhang Pu is constantly absorbing and learning.

Today's Zhang Pu, even if he creates a script, I'm afraid the box office will not be too bad.

As for whether it will explode, it depends on a bit of luck.

In fact, those films that exploded at the box office in the previous life may not continue to be big hits when they move to this world.

Zhang Pu has always believed that those films are all big hits at the box office, and there is an element of bad luck.

"By the way, how is the company's screenwriting department organized?" Zhang Pu said.

If the company has a screenwriting department, then if there are movies or TV series that he is not interested in, he can make an outline and let someone from the editorial department fill it in.

Save time and effort, and maybe rejuvenate the original.

"It's basically formed. Jiang Xingwen said, "In addition, I plan to recruit some new directors for training, and it is not a matter to always rely on poaching people." ”

"You can do it!" Zhang Pu said, "You can make some online dramas, online movies, or even online short films or something first." Those are actually not small profits. ”

Jiang Xingwen nodded, he actually saw this.

Oriental DreamWorks has two TV series directors and four film directors.

Gao Wang and Su Yuan are definitely first-line TV drama directors now, if there are top directors among TV drama directors, the two of them are not qualified to compete for one another.

Unfortunately not.

You can't become a top director when you make a TV series.

This may be the reason why so many TV series directors want to switch careers to make movies.

And what about the four film directors?

Jiang Yun's name as a top director is well deserved, and there is no controversy.

Zhang Pu, Lin Mu, and the newly joined Wen Hao are all first-line, and they are also first-line directors with strong box office appeal. Zhang Pu is also considered by many people to have the qualifications of a top director.

With such a director lineup, it cannot be said that it is not strong.

can be a second-line director and a third-line director...... None of these are available.

The six directors, whether it is a TV series or a movie, are almost all big productions.

But as a film and television company, it is obviously not possible to only do big productions.

As Zhang Pu said, online dramas and online movies are still profitable, why should Oriental DreamWorks give up?

Oriental DreamWorks can't just play big productions.

What's more, if you only play big productions, the risk will be relatively higher.

"I heard that the company is planning to train a group of new directors to shoot some low-cost online dramas?"

Within a few days, Wang Bo found Zhang Pu.

"You don't have an idea, do you?" Zhang Pu was stunned for a moment, and then said.

It is very common for photographers to change careers to become directors in the circle, and there are many big directors among them.

However, Wang Bo had the idea of changing careers to become a director, but it was somewhat unexpected by Zhang Pu.

"Sort of!" Wang Bo nodded and said.

"What do you mean a little?" Zhang Pu said, pouting.

"Being a director earns more than being a photographer!" Wang Bo said, "It's a pity that I haven't even won the Golden Dragon Award for Best Cinematography, and I always feel a little regretful when I change careers to become a director at this time!"

The corners of Zhang Pu's mouth twitched.

He understood what Wang Bo was struggling with.

He wanted to be a director for the simple reason that directors earn more than cinematographers.

Several directors of Oriental DreamWorks not only have annual salaries, but also dividends.

Wang Bo is still very keen on money. This guy spends a bit lavishly.

Being able to earn more really makes Wang Bo excited.

But he wants to win the best photographer award, so that the photographer's career can reach the peak before changing careers.

I guess I think it's more compelling to change careers when it's brilliant.

"Sluts are hypocrisy!" Zhang Pu said in one sentence.

Wang Bo's face was embarrassed, and then he said, "I can't pay attention to it, don't I want you to give some advice?"

"I can't help you with this. Zhang Pu shook his head and said, "But are you sure you want to change careers to earn more, not for any other purpose?"

"What purpose?" Wang Bo asked casually.

"Humph!"

Zhang Pu just snorted and gave Wang Bo a look of his own experience.

"Unspoken rule actress?" Wang Bo seemed to understand what Zhang Pu meant, muttered in a low voice, then stood up with a lap on his thigh, and said, "Why didn't I think of it?"

Zhang Pu: ......

Hasn't this guy thought about it before?

Zhang Pu didn't believe it.

"The entertainment industry is because there are too many people like you, and it becomes a miasma. Zhang Pu said.

"You're just willing to do it. Wang Bo pouted and said.

Is this kind of thing rare in the entertainment industry?

What is not diving, there are more actresses who are willing to recommend their own pillows.
