Night, hotel.

Zhang Junsheng is talking to Nolan about the casting of "Inception".

Uh, to be precise, Nolan proposed, Zhang Junsheng nodded...

"Joseph Gordon, Tom Hardy, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ellen Page..."

Speaking of this, Nolan glanced at Zhang Junsheng: "I heard Emma say that Japan wants to invest in Inception?

Emma, Snolan's wife, has been a producer on Nolan's films...

The original time and space, "Inception" is a typical Japanese movie that spends money for output, and the tycoons and those Dongying backgrounds in it are all content after the script has been revised.

Zhang Junsheng shook his head decisively: "There's no need, change the background to Canada or France, and leave the role of a tycoon to me!"

In fact, Uncle Ge can play the role of Ken Watanabe... Forget it, let's replace it with Chen Daoming...

"Inception", the basic box office is 3.5 billion yen, less than 35 million US dollars...

One less Ken Watanabe doesn't have much effect, Xiao Lizi alone is enough!

"Why Canada?"

“… Because there are so many tax refunds in Canada!"

“… OK！”

Nolan shut up...

"By the way, do you want to add a black character?"

There are several starring actors in "Inception", and there is not a single black person.

If it's released, it will definitely be protested!

"Dunkirk" was released, and there were no black actors, all of whom could be protested...

“… It shouldn't matter, Zhou is a yellow race..."

Nolan doesn't really value this thing, he thinks the right fit is the most important thing!

Hehe, think about the poster of "Inception" in the original time and space, there is not a single black person, and before the release, a strong protest broke out among black people...

Then, in "Interstellar", Nolan learned to be honest and arranged two black characters...

In fact, in terms of indicators, a quarter of people of color account for a very harmonious one, and the six leading actors, Brother Xun and Teacher Chen, account for one-third!

This is what Nolan thinks, alas, not the idea of blacks, in their opinion, blacks are blacks, and people of color belong to the third category ...

Later, the black man who starred in Star Wars 7 attacked the American drama "A Song of Ice and Fire", saying that none of the main characters were black, and this crew and series were suspected of racial discrimination...

"Flags of the Fathers" and even "Schindler's List" and "Saving Private Ryan" were also attacked for not having black actors and suspected of racial discrimination...

"We don't make movies for the sake of the film industry, and we don't make movies for a special group of people, we make movies for the sake of the film, for the audience. ”

Damn, are you so upright?

"Okay, you don't have to worry about the funds..."

……

Nolan's biggest controversy is that his fans, a group of people who think they've seen a lot of movies, over-praise Nolan, and trigger another wave of disconvinced people who over-disparage Nolan.

He is an author-type commercial director with a strong personal label, who can ensure a strong personal style, and every movie is a hit, and only Quentin and David Fincher can do it in Hollywood.

Spielberg and Scott have been out of fashion lately, Cameron's cycle is too long, and the Mexican Three Heroes are considered niche themes.

In later generations, it is an exaggeration to say that in addition to Nolan, a few of them can get hundreds of millions of dollars in investment, and what can basically be seen in big productions is hero movies, as well as Thrill N, Caribbean N, and Transformers N.

To a certain extent, I regard these authors and directors as saviors, so that our movie-watching tastes will not be completely homogeneous.

Chinese filmmakers, there is no shortage of directors with amazing imagination, for example, Jiang Wen, his biggest problem is that he is too selfish, he will be slow but not fast, and the rhythm of commercial narratives is problematic, and his dead nature will not change!

Nolan is different, with such a complex story as "Inception", he can substitute the audience into it by revealing layers of secrets...

The biggest obstacle for an author-based director is that you know your story too well, but the audience doesn't understand it, and it's easy to be self-congratulatory...

Pushing Zhou Gongzi and Chen Daoming to Hollywood can also be regarded as an achievement of Zhang Junsheng.

I smiled and looked at the time, it was already 11 o'clock in the evening.

Do you want to find someone to sleep with?

Or go home?

took out his mobile phone, there was a missed call, it was actually a Liang fan...

"Hey, I'm Zhang Junsheng..."

“… Come to the hotel, I'll be waiting for you in the lobby!"

Hanging up the phone, Zhang Junsheng went downstairs and asked for a bottle of red wine and a few side dishes...

And then sit back and wait for the battery...

……

It was clear that the girl had dressed up well.

White printed knit sweater, the bust is obviously meaningful, the waist is slender, and under him is a pair of blue and white skinny jeans, standing by the door, with two legs closed, almost no gaps, and a pair of long legs that are incomparably lethal.

Look at her face again, uh, a little square, but the makeup is exquisite, and the big eyes are a little apprehensive...

Probably the first home delivery...

"Here, sit down!"

Zhang Junsheng skillfully got up, pulled out a chair, and invited her to sit down.

"I was discussing things with Director Nolan just now, and my phone has been silent, you say, what's the matter?"

“… My contract with Rongxingda has expired, can I join Yuehua?"

“… Of course. ”

Poured a glass of red wine: "We welcome all the actors who use it!"

“… Thank you. ”

took a sip, and Liang Fan plucked up his courage: "But I don't really want to act in a TV series..."

"This belongs to the artist's plan, I can't be the master..."

"Let me talk about the company's brokerage department, oh, it has been separated, but the basic structure has not changed, we divide the artists into different working groups, each artist has its own positioning, some specialize in TV series, some specialize in movies, of course, if you want to test the water on the big screen, you can do it, we will help you prepare the work, if you fail, continue to shoot TV series. In fact, the current situation is not the same as before, the boundaries between the big screen and the small screen are becoming more and more blurred, and there is no need to think of yourself as a movie café!"

"I know this, I wonder if I have a chance?"

“… What kind of opportunities do you want? to be a star or an actor?"

Liang Fan gritted his teeth: "... I want them all!"

I'm going, it's really worthy of being a big power with a lot of tolerance!

glanced at her, Zhang Junsheng said: "Then you have to ensure that you are a star first, and you can't take bad movies!"

Zhang Ziyi has acted in a lot of good movies, but can we say that she is the best actress among the post-70s? No, there must be better acting skills than her. But why did the big director choose her, because she not only has good acting skills, but also is famous enough. The main thing is that she hasn't acted in a really bad movie!"

"Also, once you become a star, you can play any role, and you will be loved by tens of millions of people, can you calm down and challenge difficult roles?"
