Chapter 158: Zhang Muyi was rejected
"There was once a delicious barbecue in front of me, I didn't cherish it, and I regretted it when I lost it, and there is nothing more painful in the world than this. If God could give me a chance to do it again, I would say three words to the proprietress of the hostess: do it again. If I had to add a portion to this barbecue, I would like it to be...... 10,000 tons. ”
"Hey, hey, hey, don't be angry, you'll be angry when you're angry! Li Goumei, you're too naughty, I told you not to litter, why are you... You see I haven't finished talking and you've thrown away *** again!*** is your boyfriend, you will pollute the environment if you throw him away, what if you hit a child? Even if you can't hit a child, it's not right to hit the flowers and plants!"
"Do you need a reason to like supper? Don't you need it? Do you need it? Don't you need it?
"Do you want to eat these roasted wings? If you want to eat it, you can talk, you don't tell me how I know you want to eat, although you look at me very sincerely, but you still have to tell me what you want to eat." Do you really want to eat it? Then you take it, don't you really want to eat it, do you really want to eat it?......
……
In an instant, the various classic lines of "Journey to the West" were changed into various versions and spread wildly, and these lines could be heard in almost any street and alley, and it only took one day to cause such an effect, which Zhang Liang never expected.
"Journey to the West" is indeed a classic movie, but because of the unfavorable relationship between heaven and earth, the box office in that parallel world is not ideal, even if a re-release version is made, the box office performance is very ordinary, but after coming to this world, it can achieve such results.
At this moment, the original heart was also let go.
This is not only for the sake of the face of Chinese movies, but more importantly, Zhang Liang feels that he has not ruined the classic, and has also made this classic shine in the world.
Compared with Ge Datie and others who watched all kinds of joy at the box office, Zhang Liang looked at the prestige in the system for a while.
Ge Datie refreshed it and rose by another million at the box office; Zhang Liang opened it and found that his reputation had risen by tens of thousands, which was really refreshing.
Just on the first day of release, Zhang Liang's reputation has risen by more than one million!
Of course, in Zhang Liang's opinion, it may be higher, after all, the box office has reached 100 million, how can at least 2 million people watch "Journey to the West" today according to the ticket price? It stands to reason that it should be able to rise by 2 million, right?
It's just that the prestige is not only calculated according to the number of people, but there are still great differences in ticket prices across the country, so it is actually a little difficult to count how many people there are, not to mention how many of these people have done two or three brushes, not to mention that many of them have already given Zhang Liang their reputation in movies, and there are many people who have watched "I Am Not Ximen Qing" before, right, although Zhang Liang was only a male No. 3 at that time.
However, Zhang Liang is not such a black-hearted person, and he is already very satisfied with the fact that he can increase his reputation by more than one million a day, not to mention that the days of the next screening are still long, it may be impossible to earn his reputation of 100 million, but it should be no problem to earn tens of millions, right?
In addition, compared with others who care about the box office, some people care more about Zhang Liang's acting skills, and some people care about Zhang Liang's script, especially Zhang Muyi.
When "Journey to the West" became popular instantly, Zhang Muyi couldn't hold back, after all, this is the first movie in Chinese history to reach such a height at the box office on the first day, and he is naturally very curious about Ge Datie, an old friend and an old competitor's new movie.
So he secretly went to watch "Journey to the West", and after watching it, he was really shocked, and it was simply a feeling of surprise to Zhang Liang.
"Is such a movie really something that a young man like Zhang Liang can write?" his first reaction was not at all surprised by Zhang Liang's exaggerated nonsensical acting skills, but by the lines and plot arrangement of the whole film.
This script, even if he is a senior director, can't help but give a high score, and it is a very high score!
Zhang Liang still has such talent?
Zhang Liang's "The Legend of Wukong" Zhang Muyi can be regarded as having seen it, and I feel quite shocked, and I always feel that it seems to have opened the door to a new century, but Zhang Muyi is not very interested in the fantasy theme, so I don't care much.
There are more adaptations into movies, but it doesn't mean that people who write well can write scripts well.
But Zhang Liang still refreshed Zhang Muyi's cognition, especially the classic lines of that sentence.
So, he finally couldn't hold back his excitement and hurriedly called Zhang Liang, only to find that Zhang Liang's phone was actually busy!
Because Zhang Liang was busy answering phone calls one after another at this time, there were acquaintances who came to praise him, reporters who came to do an interview, and naturally there were major Chinese directors who called to make an appointment with Zhang Liang, and there were even several famous Chinese comedy directors.
So you can imagine how busy Zhang Liang's phone was, and at this moment Zhang Muyi seemed to feel the pain of Zhang Liang calling him but not getting through.
In the end, Zhang Muyi, who finally got through Zhang Liang's phone, was also relieved, the content of the call was actually very simple, that is, he wanted Zhang Liang to help him write a script!
Recently, Zhang Muyi has been planning a martial arts movie, this kind of movie is still very Chinese characteristics, and he also wants to use Chinese characteristics to fight for the prestigious international film award - Oscar!
After all, it is an award that Chinese directors have not won so far!
is also because of this vision, although he has had a lot of pre-selections in terms of actors, but he has always been dissatisfied with the script, searching everywhere for martial arts-themed scripts, choosing and changing and changing, but in the end I still feel a little unsatisfactory, and I always feel as if I haven't gotten to that point.
When he was in his category, Zhang Liang brought him such a surprise.
Although Zhang Liang may not be able to write a classic martial arts drama script, it is still an idea after all, isn't it?
It's just that Zhang Liang was a little confused after hearing Zhang Muyi's request.
I want to be a big star, not a famous screenwriter, and I was asked to write a script?
Although, you said before that you wanted Chen Haiyan to be the female number one or something, how can you say that now she is also my godsister, but she is her and I am good, no matter how good she mixes, she can't bring me prestige, you said that you called me to be the male number one and asked me to write a script by the way, I still thought about it, just make a wedding dress for someone else, don't look for me, right?
So...... Zhang Muyi was rejected like this.
Since he became a director, the first man to reject him so simply was born!
