Chapter 370: Faith is Gradually Crumbling
Do you want to be old?
If you don't have to do it, who wants to serve the old?
Jiang Yun is now at the peak of his career, how can he be old?
"Can't you rest?"
Jiang Yun came back from abroad, and Cai Ya couldn't help but persuade.
"The film is scheduled for June 10th, and now it is less than a month away from its release, and the corresponding publicity has begun. Jiang Yun said with a smile.
Jiang Yun's box office appeal is not weak, and the promotion of the film is naturally indispensable to use him as a gimmick.
What's more, how the box office of the film is directly affects his income.
Of course, Jiang Yun is past the age of pursuing money.
"I'm talking about after this film. Cai Ya opened her mouth and said, "I heard Zhang Pu say, you are preparing a new film again?"
"Don't worry, it's still early for the film, and the script hasn't come out yet. Jiang Yun said, "The script will be slowly polished." ”
"You're now famous. Cai Ya thought for a while and said, "I didn't advise you to retire, I just want you to pay attention to your body." Movies are endless. ”
"Got it, got it. Jiang Yun said, "Don't worry, I'll pay attention." ”
Cai Ya wanted to say something, but finally sighed, but did not continue the topic.
People must have pursuits, and their hearts must have a sustenance.
If Jiang Yun really retires and has nothing to do, I'm afraid his body will collapse faster.
"When will Xiaobin return to China?" Jiang Yun said.
"It's estimated that it's going to be soon!" Cai Ya said, "He will return to China, what are you going to arrange?"
Jiang Bin is the son of Jiang Yun and Cai Ya, and is now only in his early thirties.
I studied film in the United States before, but I didn't return to China after graduation, and I spent several years in Hollywood, directing two small-scale films, which didn't cause any repercussions.
Now that the situation in the domestic film and television industry is getting better and better, they were persuaded by Jiang Yun and the others to come back.
"Let him be an assistant director for Zhang Pu for a period of time first. Jiang Yun thought for a while and said.
"Assistant director?"
Cai Ya frowned, seeming a little unhappy.
Jiang Bin didn't have any fame in Hollywood, not necessarily because he was not level.
After all, it is difficult for a famous Chinese star to mix in Hollywood, let alone a rookie director who has just graduated.
Jiang Bin also directed two films, although they were not popular, but the reputation of the film was extremely good.
Jiang Bin has the ability, and after returning to China, he still has a relationship, and he has every chance to start a play.
Aside from Zhang Pu's relationship, Jiang Yun's own connections in the circle are also very amazing.
And Jiang Yun is now also a shareholder of Oriental DreamWorks.
When Oriental DreamWorks was still a small company, Jiang Yun joined as a top director.
His connections in the circle still play a great role in the development of the company.
Before the company went public, the share subscribed to him was even much more than that of Jiang Xingwen, the general manager.
Of course, Jiang Yun didn't ask for it all.
Even if he is not a shareholder of Oriental DreamWorks, his influence in the company is very great.
"Zhang Pu's next film is likely to be a series of films. Jiang Yun said.
"Series of movies?" Cai Ya heard it, understood what Jiang Yun meant, and said, "You mean to let Xiaobin take over this series?"
"Forget it, wait until he comes back and ask him what he means. Jiang Yun said, "Zhang Pu's next film is prepared to enter the international market. The investment in each film in this series may not be less than one billion. ”
Zhang Pu has never entered the world, but he is not an unknown person in the world.
No one doubts his ability to go international.
Everyone speculated about how big Zhang Pu's momentum would be when he entered the world.
Billion investment?
This may not be a big deal in Hollywood, but it is a record-breaking in China.
There are absolutely only a handful of domestic directors who can get such an investment.
At the beginning of June, "Jumanji", which was released for more than a month, was released in China and North America.
In China, the box office of this film exceeded 1.8 billion, while the North American box office exceeded 450 million US dollars.
The cumulative global box office has exceeded $1 billion.
Some countries and regions are still being released, but the popularity has faded.
This film became a global hit, Oriental DreamWorks earned it, and Universal Pictures earned it.
The game company under Digital Technology is making a lot of money.
So, a sequel to this film is also on the agenda.
It's just that Zhang Ke said that he would no longer direct this film. took over one of Hollywood's more famous directors.
The film has to be earned, and it also has a great role in promoting the game of the same name, so Zhang Pu naturally will not object.
"Jumanji" was released, and "The Shawshank Redemption" was released a few days later.
This film, like the former, is a collaboration between Oriental DreamWorks and Hollywood Studios.
Nowadays, although it is no longer the era when the foreign moon is relatively far away, Chinese movies are indeed inferior to Hollywood films.
This is an indisputable fact.
Oriental DreamWorks is not the first Chinese film and television company to work with Hollywood.
But it's definitely the most successful and the most impactful.
A "Jumanji" instantly pushed Tang Rui and Deng Kun internationally.
Although it does not make them very popular internationally, it definitely makes many fans around the world know and familiarize themselves with these two Chinese stars.
Compared with the films cooperated by other film and television companies and Hollywood companies, Chinese actors are almost just soy sauce in it.
In the film "Jumanji", Tang Rui may not be able to occupy the C position, but she can be called the heroine.
Deng Kun definitely has a lot of roles in it, although he is a supporting role, he is not a soy sauce player.
What's more, the director of this film is also a Chinese director.
Compared with this film, "The Shawshank Redemption" is more thorough.
The director is not only a Chinese director, but even the male number one is also a Chinese actor!
As for the heroine......
Well, this film doesn't have a heroine at all.
After all, this is a prison film.
How can a story that takes place in prison have a heroine?
Well, Death Speed doesn't count!
Although this film takes place in a prison, it is not a prison film, but an action and science fiction movie.
Zhang Pu has never known what the box office of "Death Speed" is, but this series has been filmed three times directly, and it is clear at a glance whether it makes money or not.
Of course, Zhang Pu is not interested in this film.
"The Shawshank Redemption" was not only released in China and North America at the same time, but also in many countries and regions in Europe.
Relatively speaking, Japan and South Korea are a little later than Southeast Asia.
"How's it at the box office?"
When Zhang Pu saw Jiang Xingwen, he immediately asked.
Jiang Xingwen is looking for him at this time, so nine times out of ten it is for the box office of this film.
Maybe Jiang Xingwen himself doesn't know why he likes to share the news of the company's film box office with Zhang Pu.
Maybe get used to it.
"The domestic box office has not exceeded 200 million. Jiang Xingwen said, "However, there are no competitors in this period. This box office easily won the single-day box office championship. ”
"It's already a good box office. Zhang Pu smiled and said, "What about North America?"
After all, North America is the largest film market today.
As for the box office in Europe and other places, Zhang Pu's attention is naturally not so high.
"In the early 20 million, it ranks second in the single-day box office list. Jiang Xingwen said, "The box office of this film is difficult to compare with "Jumanji". ”
"Isn't that expected?" Zhang Pu said with a smile.
He was very pleased with the box office performance of the film.
I'm afraid the box office on the first day will break the box office of the original version, right?
What's not to be satisfied with here?
Judging from today's box office, the film will not only not lose money, but still make a profit.
I don't know if it's his Zhang Pu's luck or Universal Pictures' luck.
When Zhang Pu took out this script, he really didn't think about making money.
If it weren't for that, it wouldn't have been a step in for Universal Pictures to get involved.
"Yes!" Jiang Xingwen said with a smile, "The box office of "The Shawshank Redemption" may not be as good as "Jumanji", but the reputation of this film is much better. Perhaps, next year's Oscars will be won!"
"Maybe!" Zhang Pu said with a smile.
Who can say this kind of thing clearly!
Still, the chances should be great. There are media in North America who hail this film as the most classic film in the world in the past decade.
Jiang Xingwen chatted with Zhang Pu for a while and left.
And as soon as he left, Wang Bo came again.
"You're not busy with the late stage, why are you running here with me?" Zhang Pu said with a smile.
"Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" was completed not long ago.
This is also due to Wang Bo's learning that "The Shawshank Redemption" will be released in June, and when Deng Kun returns from Cannes, he will adjust the filming plan and take the lead in filming his role.
Otherwise, Deng Kun is afraid that he will have to ask for leave again.
Of course, the key is that there are not many scenes left in this drama.
"Where's my song?" Wang Bo said, "You promised me before, don't tell me that you didn't write it." ”
"I've already recorded it for you. Zhang Pu smiled and said, "I'll send you an email." ”
"That's pretty much it. Wang Bo smiled and left satisfied.
He couldn't wait to go back to the office, open his mailbox, and click on it.
"The night is getting cooler, and the flowers fall into frost ......"
This song is good.
And Zhang Pu and Xu Jiahui sang, and this TV series alone is full of gimmicks.
Zhang Pu hasn't sung for a long time.
The song "Cool Cool" has beautiful words, melodious melody, provocative, the lyrics are meticulous, the melody and lyrics show a little sadness, Zhang Pu and Xu Jiahui's voices are fused together, and the three-life entanglement between Bai Qian and Yehua is told with singing.
The sentence "Liang Liang Sansheng III is suddenly like a dream" sings too much helplessness and emotion in the long years, and the two voices of masculine delicacy and affectionate vicissitudes collide, as if the audience has been substituted into that epic love.
Wang Bo was quite satisfied with this song.
That's what was tailor-made for his show.
"Is it cool? How does it feel that something is wrong!"
The more Wang Bo thought about it, the more wrong it became.
Cool!
Cool your sister!
This guy definitely did it on purpose, definitely on purpose.
first fell out of love, three lives and three lives, and now there is the first "Cool Cool"?
Lao Tzu finally made some progress!
Wang Bo felt that his confidence was gradually collapsing.
