Chapter 92: Cameo and the Great Earthquake (4/5 Subscription Requested)
In fact, in recent years, many directors have been kidnapped by the box office!
Especially after Yuehua was newly established, most of the films, directors, and box office output could easily exceed 100 million!
The market began to favor entertainment movies, and the audience also recognized commercial films in their hearts!
In those years, Lao Mouzi also drummed up "A Thousand Miles to Ride Alone", invited the old man of Fu Jingzhi to write a script, and the actor even found Lao Mouzi's favorite Takakura Ken!
What does Lao Mouzi say about Ken Takakura?
"I look up to him a lot, I look up to him. ”
"Riding Alone for a Thousand Miles", there is no box office pressure, it is still familiar ordinary, and it is still that familiar touch.
Of course, a reporter from Southern Weekly would say, "Do you think it's still the 80s, and any broken technology and any broken thinking can fool the audience?"
However, most of the viewers who watched "A Thousand Miles to Ride Alone" think that this is a good story!
But not good business...
The box office of "A Thousand Miles to Ride Alone" is less than 30 million, and Zhang Weipin is very aggrieved...
What's even more aggrieved is that Lao Mouzi was busy with the Olympics in those years, and he didn't have time to make movies at all.
"Three Guns", if the funny scenes are deleted, and then Xiao Shen Yang is replaced by Zhang Yi, it will be a good suspense film, and it really has a surprising effect (you can go and see Youku's 90-minute version)...
But if you shoot like that, you may not be able to sell for money!
Therefore, according to Zhang Weipin's idea, Zhang Yimou found Zhao Jiaban...
Why did Zhang Yimou shoot "Hero"?
It's not because the two movies "Have Something to Say" and "Happy Times" have lost money!
If you continue to lose it, you may really lose it...
"Hero", "Ambush on All Sides", and "The City Full of Golden Armor" are three blockbusters, regardless of word-of-mouth, but the box office is real.
And Zhang Weipin is the producer, and the producer interferes in the casting, which is quite normal!
From his own point of view, he may feel that he has no problem!
The era of domestic blockbusters was created by two at the same time - that's what the media wrote...
It's different now, someone is really waving a check and digging into the wall!
Zhang Weipin immediately took a plane to Gansu...
He wants to declare his sovereignty!
……
Chedun Town is a small place, belonging to Songjiang District, there is a not very famous film and television base, the large number is called Shanghai Film and Television Park.
Based on the customs of the Republic of China in the thirties, including the three major companies of Xianshi, Yong'an and Xinxin, Shikumen lane, Shanghai * Hai Grand Theater, German-style villa, Spanish building, English-style villa, spire church, etc., the cottage is a ten-mile foreign field.
Although "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" is not paid, the board and lodging are still included.
Arrived in the magic capital in the morning and took a nap, this will just arrive.
"The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" asked him to play a cameo role, and Zhang Junsheng was duty-bound...
"Han Dong, Director Huang!"
Waving his hand, Huang Jianxin nodded, but Han Sanye smiled and said, "Hey, just call me director, how about resting?"
"It's okay, when will you shoot my scene?"
"Wait a minute, Chen Kun will be here soon!"
To explain, Zhang Junsheng's role has been changed from a veteran of the Red Army to Kong Lingkan...
probably thinks his temperament is more suitable for playing the rich second generation...
The rustic vigor of the Red Army soldiers did not suit him!
Zhang Junsheng doesn't care, anyway, it's 'Uncle Han's people will listen to the order and have seen the uncle!'
Taiwan, your mother's 60th birthday, calling you home for dinner!
Well, that's probably how ...
Kong Lingkan didn't have a few lines, a proper soy sauce pie.
Zhang Junsheng has filmed a few dramas, his acting skills are not outstanding, but they are not particularly bad, Huang Jianxin pondered for a while, and let it go!
But the third master told Zhang Junsheng something.
Tangshan found China Film and hoped that the third master would tell Zhang Junsheng to make a movie that reflected the "Tangshan Earthquake"...
……
The project "Tangshan Earthquake" belongs to the topic selection task.
To put it bluntly, if it weren't for Tang * Shan's willingness, Feng Xiaogang would not have had the opportunity to shoot "Tangshan Earthquake"!
A few years ago, there was a major power outage in Shi*Jingshan, thousands of households were sunk in darkness, and the subway and passengers were stranded in dark tunnels, and even affected Zhongnanhai.
This event triggered the inspiration of director Chen Guoxing, he wanted to use this event to show the weakness of people before the catastrophe, and also wanted to show the love that people radiate at the moment of life and death, "Dangerous Snow Night"!
After the movie was filmed, he received a notice that he was not allowed to shoot what happened in Yanjing, Chen Guoxing could only temporarily change the power outage disaster to other provinces, and change all the scenes with the logo of the capital to reshoot, and the movie promotional articles and advertisements were carefully marked that the power outage occurred in a coastal city.
Therefore, even if someone wants to film "The Great Earthquake", it is impossible without the permission of Tang * Shan!
Han Sanye probably said such a thing, and then put forward a request: "Tangshan hopes that the film will promote mainstream values, carry forward the main theme, express the great love of the world, and publicize the great achievements and humanistic spirit of Tangshan over the past 30 years after the Tangshan earthquake." ”
The main theme is a must, but Zhang Junsheng doesn't quite understand how to find him?
He doesn't seem to have shot anything about the main theme...
“… Why are you looking for me? I still have two projects to finish!"
"It's not me looking for you, it's they think you can shoot well!"
Han Sanye was also very helpless, such a good opportunity was given to Yuehua in vain...
The main theme of the movie, China Film is not unable to shoot!
The third master is also a director himself!
What is the main theme of "Tangshan Earthquake"?
The main character is the mayor, and when the earthquake hits, he is correcting documents in the office...
Crawl out of the rubble, hang up the party flag, and firmly say, comrades, we must actively organize self-help, and party members must fight on the front line ...
In the second half, the retired mayor returned to his hometown to take some pictures of the city's scenery, landmark buildings, and show the achievements of 30 years of construction...
How nice and touching!
Finally, a monologue: Endless turbulence in the sea, a punch to the sky and the head of the tide, 30 years of reform and opening up, but also 30 years of Tangshan...
When it is released, there will definitely be a political axe to charter the venue, and the box office will start at least 100 million!
These are all KPIs!
Zhang Junsheng frowned: "I'll think about it." ”
……
Frankly speaking, "Tangshan Earthquake" is a good subject!
It's not that it's hard to make a fortune or anything, the main thing is that this is a disaster theme, which can be derived in the direction of large-scale disaster films, especially the release of "2012" in the second half of this year, which will set off a wave of disaster films around the world.
"Tangshan Earthquake" has set a box office score of 600 million, and if you take 10,000 steps back, this is a profitable project!
And the original version of the pants has a high reference significance, reflecting the disaster through the aggregation of a family, and telling about family affection and humanity from the perspective of ordinary people.
By the way, if Zhang Junsheng doesn't take on this project, will Tangshan's second choice be Ma Xiaokang?
If Dongyang Media recovers because of "Tangshan Earthquake", will the previous series of suppressions be in vain?
