Chapter 51 is over
The filming of "Jingwu Heroes" has entered the countdown.
The actors are also finished one by one.
The scenes of Kurata Akira and Satomi Ishihara have been filmed, and they have left the flower planting house three days ago to return to Neon.
Satomi Ishihara thinks back to the filming of "Jingwu Heroes" this time and feels that it is very different from the neon film shooting.
I learned a lot.
Satomi Ishihara shoots most in neon dramas, or comedies. And some of the performances are exaggerated in terms of movements and expressions, but she has seen a lot of different performance styles in the flower planter.
Especially when I saw Mr. Ji Chunhua's play when filming, he entered the play quickly, and when he performed, he didn't even need extra expressions and movements, which made people feel his terrible. This reminded her of Teruyuki Kagawa.
........
On March 28, Zhang Jin finished his work.
His scenes are filmed intensively, and if he follows the normal process, he will need at least seven or eight days of work.
No way, he still has two TV series to film, one of which is still filmed with his wife Cai Shaofen. The two of them often get together less and leave more, after all, they are both stars, so this TV series shooting can be regarded as a benefit.
After Zhang Li found out, he also stepped up the filming of his scenes, of course, he would not relax in terms of quality.
If the film is filmed at this pace, the film will be released in mid-April.
After all, this movie is not a big production, there are no special effects and no complicated plot. The biggest attraction of this movie is the kung fu.
If more than ten years ago, if you were injured in a kung fu movie or other elements, it might have led to injury shooting or something, but now the medical level is not bad. And Zhang Li has also done a lot of safety measures, he would rather shoot a few more times than get injured, after all, Kurata Baozhao is old, and Wu Jing has a lot of injuries, Zhang Jin doesn't look young, it is also 74 years old, and he has been engaged in the martial arts industry for many years. If you film with an injury now, it will be painful in the future, don't go out and walk with crutches in the future.
Others are filming to catch up with the schedule, as long as it is not a major injury, they will continue to shoot, but Zhang Li is different.
He is not the kind of person who has no confidence in movies, even if "Jingwu Hero" is not confident, but he is not satisfied that "Jingwu Hero" can break his own record, and he is not worried about the box office exceeding 100 million.
Therefore, Zhang Li was very careful in the filming of martial arts.
...........................
On this day, Zhang Li was really filming the scene of Ji Chunhua.
"Director, there are reporters out there who want to interview you. When Zhang Li and Ji Chunhua were talking about the scene, the scene reporter ran over and said.
"Don't you see, don't you see that you're filming? ”
As soon as I talked to Ji Chunhua, the field reporter suddenly ran over to say this kind of thing. I really don't know how to act by looking at my eyes, and now at this time, it is important for any reporter to make a movie, even if it is, CCTV reporter, cough cough, it still has to give face.
"Well, director, this reporter is glamorous, and the host Xie Nan is here together. The scene note finished very slowly, and then looked at Zhang Li cautiously.
That is, knowing that it was a glamorous person, he came to report Zhang Li, otherwise he would have stopped the outside a long time ago.
"It's glamorous, the old king didn't say it. ”
"Ahem. ”
Zhang Li originally wanted to call the glamorous person to ask what was going on, but he heard a sharp cough and looked back. Hehe, Wu Jing.
"Alright, let them come. No one can give face, but our Brother Jing's face still has to be given. Everyone rests for half an hour. ”
The first words are said to the scene notes, and the latter is to ridicule Wu Jing. But the old man, Wu Jing is not embarrassed.
Although Wu Jing and Xie Nan's relationship has not been made public for the time being, this kind of thing has not been deliberately hidden. Especially Xie Nan is still a glamorous person, Zhang Li must know.
"Yo, sister-in-law is here, let's come to see Brother Jing again. ”
Xie Nan and the others came over soon, and Zhang Li said with a smile. There are all his own people around, so there is nothing to scruple about, and Xie Nan often comes to visit the class, as long as he is not blind, he can guess it.
"Great director, it's not easy to see you. ”
"You go directly to Brother Jing, that's not everything solved. ”
"I haven't been home for so many days, and I can't even see a figure, how can I find it. ”
Wu Jing's face was full of innocence, and he couldn't be blamed for this. He is the leading actor, and this drama is not only valued by Zhang Li, but also by himself. So I often stay in the crew, is it still Zhang Li to discuss the director's affairs. Zhang Li knew that he wanted to make his own movie, and it was estimated that "Wolf Warrior" would come out in advance.
"Okay, no more time. This time it's an interview, and the company is here to publicize it. ”
"Okay, what do you want to ask, just ask. ”
"This time I'm here mainly for publicity, and the questions I'm asking here are all from the script, so you might as well break the news."
Hearing this, Zhang Li looked at Wu Jing. Meaning, your wife will do it herself.
Wu Jing shrugged his shoulders and said that he was not married yet, saying that you are the director.
"There is no humanity of the opposite sex. ”
Zhang Li could only curse in his heart, and then think about what to say.

...................
On April 17, the HK Portrait Award began.
However, Zhang Li did not participate in this film award.
As the former Oriental Hollywood, HK's certain image award can be said to be invincible throughout Asia, and a certain horse award can compete.
It's a pity that as time went by, HK movies declined. And a certain image award is only allowed to participate in HK movies, and it has almost completely become a self-congratulatory award in the back, if it weren't for a group of old actors to support it, it would really be over.
To participate in a certain image award, the film must be released in HK and achieve several achievements.
1. The director must be a HK resident holding a HK permanent identity card;
2. The production company (at least one) is a legally registered company in HK;
3. At least six work items must be HK residents holding HK permanent identity cards, and only one person will be counted for each work item, based on 15 awards, including: Producer, Screenwriter, Actor, Actress, Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress, Cinematography, Action Design, Art Direction, Costume Modeling, Editing, Original Film Music, Original Film Song, Sound Effects and Visual Effects. (If there is more than one HK staff member who composes, writes lyrics and vocalizes the original movie song, only one of them will be counted.) )
It is estimated that Zhang Li will never have the opportunity to participate in this award in his life, and if he really goes, he may be even more embarrassed. And at most, it will only give you the actress, actor and best director, don't even think about it.
Even Hu Jun, Liu Ye, Jiang Wen and others have failed, he doesn't think that he will make the other party think that he is powerful and give himself the actor or the best director.
Most of the country's entertainment newspapers are carrying the news about the awards ceremony, at least leaving a page for it. After all, the dead camel is bigger than the horse, and it may not be the whole time, but the result is still something that many people want to know.
On April 8, 2011, the day after the HK Awards, Guangxian Media Company and Zhang Li's studio announced a news: "Jingwu Hero" directed by Zhang Li was completed on April 8 and will be released on April 20.
The completion of "Jingwu Heroes" immediately caused a great sensation in the big film market of Flower Planters. The major newspapers in the flower planting house have reported one after another.
"I'm rubbing, I can finally watch Director Zhang's movie, it's not easy, I've been promoting it since March!"
"Fans are already!!"
"I don't know if Director Zhang can make a breakthrough in kung fu films, if he just repeats the old movies, it will be tasteless. I sincerely hope that Director Zhang's film can make a big mark in the history of film!"
"It's necessary, who is Director Zhang. Since his debut, he has never missed, and he can control it no matter what style of movie it is. And the movie also has kung fu stars such as Wu Jing, Zhang Jin, Kurata Baozhao, and Wu Yue in it. And there's also a ten-yuan young lady, so I'm excited to think about it!!"
Countless fans spontaneously promoted the "Jingwu Heroes" movie online, and in less than a day, the flower planting network began to be full of news about the upcoming release of "Jingwu Heroes".
"Jingwu Heroes" is jointly invested by Guangxian and China/Film, so Zhang Li is not worried about publicity and distribution at all.
And the professional film media "Times Youth Film" published a very gimmicky article on the second day - "In 2011, the first shot of counterattack, can Zhang Li beat "Fast and Furious 5""
The article not only reported on the completion of "Jingwu Heroes", but also made a detailed comparative analysis of another movie "Fast and Furious 5" that was on fire at Bald Eagle's house and will be released at the flower planter's house.
And the article also predicts the total box office of these two films......
"Fast and Furious 5" continues the passionate and dynamic image style of handsome men and beautiful women in the series of films, and integrates more police and action elements into it, with gunfights and explosion scenes escalating, story suspense, and character relationships. At the box office, it is likely to surpass last year's Harry Potter box office record. ”
And "Jingwu Heroes" is the favorite kung fu film of the flower family, although kung fu movies are no longer a golden age. However, in recent years, the kung fu film market has picked up, and many kung fu film masterpieces have appeared. And in terms of casting, whether it is Wu Jing, Zhang Jin or Wu Yue, they are all senior martial arts actors, and the villain Ji Chunhua is also a famous martial arts actor and gold medal villain star. And the movie also has the addition of neon's veteran martial arts actor Kurata Hoaki and the new generation of actor Satomi Ishihara, which makes the movie even more exciting. Since director Zhang Li's debut, there has been no movie with a box office of no more than 100 million, which makes people even more look forward to what kind of results such a lineup will have. ”
At the end of this newspaper, the results of HK's portrait were also slightly mentioned, and it was said that the director of "Death Arrives", Peng Benxiang won the best screenplay for "Zhiming and Chunjiao". made a good mockery, which probably means that this kind of person can also get the best screenwriter, "Death Arrives" is like shit, I don't know if it's his work.
Well, that's right, friendly forces.
Other newspapers have also come to a similar conclusion as "Times Youth Movie". All have great confidence in the box office capabilities of "Fast and Furious 5" and "Jingwu Heroes". However, they are more optimistic about the box office victory of "Jingwu Heroes".
As for the upcoming "Guan Yunchang" and "A Chinese Ghost Story", they have been completely ignored.
In addition to the news that the mainland was being released by "Jingwu Heroes", the most sensational place is HK.
However, the mood of HK people can be said to be quite angry, "Jingwu Hero" was announced when it was announced, but you actually announced it at the time of HK's image award. And I don't know what's going on, most of the media are promoting "Jingwu Heroes". For HK's Academy Awards, it is a superficial and perfunctory report, which makes people angry, and HK has contributed a lot to the golden age of kung fu films. As a result, now a junior dares to make kung fu movies, and they still want to compete with Hollywood blockbusters. Who is this looking down on?
HK people are very unhappy, but there is no way to do it. Today's mainland films are no longer completely dependent on HK as before, but now HK is relying on the mainland. And now the movies on the box office list of Chinese films are all big mainland directors.
Now I can only hope that "Guan Yunchang" and "A Chinese Ghost Story" will not disappoint.
Just when the flower planter was sensational because of the imminent release of "Jingwu Heroes", the production company of "Jingwu Heroes" would not let go of this great opportunity for publicity and immediately start the first wave of publicity before the release.
There was no way to release the trailer, but the stills began to circulate on the Internet.
Wearing a Mao suit, you can see Wu Jing who is not easy to mess with.
Zhang Jin, who was dressed in a strong suit and had a serious face.
Dressed in a military uniform, without any expression, as long as he stands there, he can be daunting Ji Chunhua.
Satomi Ishihara with a worried expression on her face and wearing a kimono.
There is also Zhang Li, who is dressed in coarse cloth and has a fierce face.
There is no trailer, but just these simple stills make people want to see what the story is.
And the most popular in it is not Wu Jing or Zhang Jin. It's Zhang Li and Satomi Ishihara.
Satomi Ishihara doesn't need to say much about her appearance as a neon goddess, and she was originally a neon person, and she was even more beautiful after wearing a kimono.
And Zhang Li is a bit unexpected, because there is no Zhang Li's name in the cast. But looking at the stills, Zhang Li starred again. And with a vicious face, he is definitely not a good person.
So there was a wave of analysis on the Internet, Zhang Li was a miscellaneous soldier who was killed by the protagonist.
Although it is not hit, it is not far away, and such speculation is exciting.
A director who played a miscellaneous soldier was killed by the protagonist, and many people wanted to see how it was played.
..............

................
"Big Wang, now that "Fast and Furious 5" is so popular, do you have any plans over there?"
In the glamorous office, Zhang Li found the eldest Wang and asked directly, there was no extra nonsense.
"You value this "Fast and Furious 5" so much? You must know that now your movie "Jingwu Hero" is even more popular. Big guy Wang Qi said.
"If the outside media can believe what they say, what do they need professionals to do? "Although "Fast and Furious 5" has not yet been released, Zhang Li will not relax. The "Fast and Furious" series can be said to be the most profitable series in the flower planter, and it can only be compared with "Harry Potter", "Avengers", and "Transformers".
Zhang Li's face is serious, there is no bad one in the series "Fast and Furious", especially the latter ones, which make many filmmakers desperate.
If "Jingwu Hero" sits back and waits to die, Zhang Li is sure. Even if you play 12% of your own movie, you still have to suffer.
Da Lao Wang drank a cup of tea and said slowly, ""Fast and Furious 5" is actually like that, wasn't it like that when it was released in April last year? I've asked someone to do the promotion of "Jingwu Heroes", and I've been promoting it since March. For such a long time, I don't want to mention all the people in the flower family, at least most people know that there is such a movie released. ”
"I hope so. ”
Seeing that Zhang Li was still worried, the eldest king thought about it and whispered, "Actually, you are not so worried." This movie will have China/Film investment anyway. As long as your movie is not too bad, then no matter what, the scale of distribution will not be bad, after all, there is a difference between intimacy and intimacy. ”
Zhang Li was stunned, he didn't expect this kind of operation. , and the eldest king enjoyed Zhang Li's gaze very much.
Now the flower planter's movies have begun to rise, and it is no longer the situation that was powerless in the face of HK or Hollywood movies. Now it is impossible for Han Sanye to let a foreign film continue to dominate the box office list, after all, they also want to save face. Especially in recent years, Chinese films have also beaten Hollywood movies to the top.
Of course, you must also compete for yourself, otherwise your movie potential will only be tens of millions of box office, and it is impossible for you to become a movie box office of more than 100 million, so you have to work hard.
There are basically some unspoken rules in the film industry in every country, especially in cold countries. If there were no good Hanguo movies that year, it would be fine, if there were, then hehe.
And Zhang Li's "Jingwu Hero" Han Sanye is very optimistic, as long as it is not too bad, then there is no need to worry.
And Zhang Li is also in the eyes of Han Sanye, I hope that Zhang Li can grow as soon as possible, and it is best to become the next big director.
After all, the current big director is strictly speaking a national teacher in the mainland, who has won top awards, made commercial blockbusters in China, and the overseas box office is also gratifying.
As for Feng Dacang and Chen Wouji, Jiang Wen and the three of them are still half a step behind, either because of the awards, or at the box office, or they are just one step away, and this one step is more than ten years.
So Zhang Li has hope now, and Han Sanye doesn't mind helping him.
