Chapter 712: Walking on the Blade [Four More Requests for Subscription]

Zhou Kang rubbed his teeth, and he didn't know how to open his mouth for a while in the face of this lineup.

After a while, he hesitated and said, "Why do I feel so shabby? It's a movie with an investment of 120 million US dollars, and I don't need to do visual effects, and I don't have any big stars, so how can I spend so much money!"

Tony Leung and Sophie Marceau may be superstars in their home countries, but they are just ordinary actors in Hollywood.

Now Zhou Kang is starting to worry about the box office, this lineup looks too shabby, obviously a Disney movie, but it looks like an independent film with a cost of millions of dollars.

Zhong Liangping also frowned, and he asked, "Is this a rumor on the Internet, or is it really announced?"

Obviously, Tony Leung is also an actor, but why does he feel that it is a big difference?

Zhang Chu shook his head and said with a pout: "Vanity Fair reported it, and several other authoritative media have also reported it. If it's not for sure, this will never name these actors by name. ”

In his last life, Professor Robert Langdon was played by Oscar-winning actor Tom Hanks, who almost blended in with the role.

Tom Hanks's popularity and audience popularity in the United States and the world are absolutely top, both Toms are world superstars, and Big Tom is almost unique in the field of feature films.

Make a biopic of the captain and the captain, and the North American box office can break 100 million, you can imagine how much everyone likes him!

Only this time, Robert Langdon, the male protagonist of "The Da Vinci Code", was changed by Zhang Chu to a Chinese, a professor at Yan University.

In this way, of course, it is impossible for Tom Hanks to play an Asian American, and it is impossible for Zhang Chu to go back and revise it.

In the last life, with the blessing of Tom Hanks, the Oscar-winning actor, the global box office of "The Da Vinci Code" only exceeded 500 million US dollars.

Although the number of movie theaters has increased a lot, it is still difficult to reach $500 million!

Although the box office attraction in North America and the rest of the region has declined, the box office improvement in China should be relatively large.

From the original work, script to actors, these are very Chinese imprints!

It can be said that the global box office of "The Da Vinci Code" this time mainly depends on how much China can contribute.

"What do you guys think of this casting?"

"To be honest, I was a little angry when Hollywood didn't use Asian-American actors as the lead roles. But now that I'm using it, I feel that few of these Asian actors can handle it. Especially the actors!"

Zhou Kang had to admit, "In these Hollywood blockbusters, actresses have supported big productions, but there are really few male actors except martial arts and kung fu." How many Chinese or Asian-American actors do you think could be the leading actors in Hollywood?"

Zhang Chu shook his head, "I really can't think of it." ”

"Yes, I initially felt that Tony Leung might not be able to support this movie, but I don't know who else to replace. Actors with better acting skills than him do exist, but are they really suitable for starring in Hollywood commercial films? They rarely play the leading role in our Chinese films. Can you imagine that Mr. Li Xuejian, Mr. Chen Baoguo, Mr. Chen Daoming, and Mr. Tang Guoqiang went to make foreign movies?" Zhou Kang read out many names of old drama bones in a row, but they all vetoed them one by one.

It is estimated that Disney's executors are also big, and they can't find suitable stars to make movies, so they can only target Xiangjiang in the end.

Sophie Marceau is not a well-known figure either, most of the time she is a vase with a bit of acting skills, but it is enough to have good looks in the movie!

Now Zhang Chu can only silently hope that the box office of this film in China can be as high as possible, so that the box office share ratio determined by himself and Disney will be higher.

In fact, the situation of "Life of Pi" is very similar to "The Da Vinci Code", that movie also does not have any stars, and even the actor is a pure Indian teenager and a tiger made of a computer, at least Tony Leung and Sophie Marceau are still well-known in Asia and Europe.

But the focus of "Youth Pi" is not on the actors, but on the visual effects and plot, so Zhang Chu is a little more optimistic about the box office of this movie.

Both of them can be regarded as difficult brothers, obviously they were both filmed by top Hollywood manufacturers, but none of them had big stars joined.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chu had some liver pain, "In the future, I must write a movie that can allow big stars to participate, otherwise it will be too cold!"

It means that now he wants to use the influence of his works to carry the banner of publicity, after all, those actors can't be counted on.

In this way, the advantages and disadvantages are obvious, the presence of the original book will be strengthened, and once the film is successful, it will be linked to the movie, and readers will bring the image of the actor into the work.

Once it fails, the consequences will be very serious, and passers-by will definitely lose a lot of popularity.

To put it simply, now "The Da Vinci Code" is walking on the edge of a knife, and it will slip down if you are not careful.

In addition to fans who are really looking forward to the movie, it is estimated that many people are looking forward to the day when this masterpiece will be made into a bad movie!

What Zhang Chu can do is to control the script, the actors are basically irretrievable at this time, so the script of the movie must not be delayed.

So he plans to wait for the final exams, he must fly to the United States, and he must confirm the script with Disney, which is the only possibility that can turn the tables.

Now the news outlets are almost crazy, and all of them are reporting about the movie!

[The starring role of "The Da Vinci Code" was announced, and Tony Leung partnered with French beauty Sophie Marceau to stage the horror of the Louvre!]

[Much anticipated!Disney Gong announced the main creator of the movie "The Da Vinci Code", directed by the Oscar for Best Director, and the male gods and goddesses of China and France gathered!]

[Tony Leung will play the leading role of the Da Vinci Code!]

[The Da Vinci Code is about to start filming, and the casting is unexpected!]

[Shocking! Chinese actor won Hollywood's top production actor, looking forward to Tony Leung!]

["The Da Vinci Code" exposed the main creative lineup, and the actor turned out to be him!]

After many days, "Da Vinci Code" once again appeared on the Weibo hot search list, and at the same time, the topic of "Da Vinci Code - Tony Leung" is also on the hot search list.

Tony Leung, who has always been very low-key, is quite popular among netizens, but the actors who are not related to each other are strangely connected with the work at this time!

They speculated about Disney's choice, and they thought that they would choose an Asian actor to play Professor Yang Xuan in Hollywood, but they didn't expect it to fall on the head of a Chinese actor, which is almost a resource that can make people soar.

If an ordinary actor can get this role, he will at least be remembered by the media for the rest of his life, and the Hollywood A-level production actor has to work hard to get it, even if it is a European and American actor, let alone a Chinese actor.

But Tony Leung is also a Cannes actor, and he has starred in classic films such as "Hero", "Infernal Affairs", "The Grandmaster", "East Evil and West Poison", "Springtime", this resource is at best to let him enter the eyes of more people, let him cross from the world of literary films to commercial films, just to see if the commercial value can surge!

Domestic netizens were stunned one by one, pie in the sky!

"It seems that Disney wants God to restore the Da Vinci code, but fortunately it is played by Wei Zai, and I really can't accept it if I change to a banana man. ”

"I swiped this message while eating, and I almost squirted out the rice!"

"At first, I felt that Tony Leung didn't seem to be able to support this movie, but if it was a different person, I didn't know who to replace. may be the only one who is still competitive is Uncle Daoming, but unfortunately Uncle Daoming does not have any popularity abroad. ”

"Wow! Wei Zai is so powerful, he actually got this kind of blockbuster quietly!"

"Just for Zhang Chu's starring role with Tony Leung, I will also go to the cinema to support!"

"You're telling me it's a Hollywood blockbuster? This lineup looks like a typical Sino-American co-production. ”

"I thought that the group of people on the Internet clamored to change the background successfully, but I didn't expect that Di Baobao still chose to use real Chinese as the protagonist, and I must like it!"

"I'm so happy, these two seem to be quite compatible, hurry up and shoot!"

Netizens on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, Reddit and other places are confused, and the director and starring don't seem to be too famous.

"Who are they? It looks pretty good in the picture. ”

"I haven't seen any of their films, but it must be great to win Best Actor at the Cannes Film Festival!"

"Sophie, I love her to death!"

"This is very similar to the description in "The Da Vinci Code", and I hope it will be very good-looking. ”

"Hollywood can't find good actors? I am very happy to be an Asian when I finally set my sights on Asia and Europe!"

"I thought I had started filming a long time ago, but I'm only now finding an actor?"

With this news, Tony Leung's Google search volume finally ushered in an explosion.

His achievements in the literary film industry are quite high, but it has been a long time before he showed his face in front of the public.

The maintenance is quite good, and it is still acceptable to play a middle-aged university professor in this state.

Now netizens are curious whether the development of the movie will be consistent, or whether it will be appropriately adapted and add something fresh.

After Zhang Chu briefly skimmed through these comments, he said happily: "Tomorrow's trial meeting will definitely be very lively, thanks to our venue triple jump." ”

Zhou Kang strongly agrees with this statement, if he still stays in the Hanlinxuan Bookstore, maybe just the media reporters can squeeze the glass!

The Centennial Lecture Hall, which can accommodate thousands of people, is obviously a very suitable place, and Zhou Kang feels that his company's staff may be a little short of maintaining order, and he has to ask the school security office to help.

Everything has come together, and those media will never let go of this opportunity to interview Zhang Chu!
