Next chapter
To be honest, before Zhang Ran arrived in Las Vegas, he had thought about "Fahrenheit 911" at all. After meeting Harvey in the lobby of the hotel, he suddenly thought of it and made a temporary decision.
Although Zhang Ran got the copyright of the movie, it does not mean that he can really put nearly $50 million in his pocket.
There is a variable in this, "Fahrenheit 911" can win the Palme d'Or all thanks to Quentin's support, because Quentin is the chairman of the jury of this Cannes Film Festival, and the powerful chairman of the jury can control the jury and let the award selection be carried out according to his own wishes. Quentin has a good relationship with Harvey, and Quentin's films after "Reservoir Dogs" were all invested by Harvey. If Quentin knew that "Fahrenheit 911" was bought by Zhang Ran, it is difficult to say whether he would support this movie.
If "Fahrenheit 911" can't win the Palme d'Or, then Zhang Ran will lose money. However, film is inherently a high-risk industry, and people who don't want to take risks are not suitable for making movies at all.
"I'm back!" Zhang Ran walked into the set and greeted with a smile, "Brothers, don't think I have it!"
Zheng Xiaoshuang and Qin Junjie ran over with open arms, one of them took one of Zhang Ran's hands, and said, "Director, where have you been? We all miss you!"
Zhang Ran touched the heads of the two children and said with a smile: "It's really good, the two children still have a good relationship with me!"
Huang Lei saw Zhang Ran's bright smile, so he said: "It looks like you're in a good mood, did you pick up your wallet, or did you have an affair?"
Zhang Ran said proudly: "I picked up the beauty's wallet!"
Huang Lei turned his head to look at Zhang Jingchu and said with a smile: "Jingchu, did you hear it, I picked up the beauty's wallet, and I will go back in a while to interrogate it!"
Zhang Jingchu didn't speak, she just looked at Zhang Ran and smiled, she didn't believe it!
Zhang Ran glared at Huang Lei angrily: "Okay, your surname is Huang, and you actually beat my little report." I'll call Sun Li in a moment and say that you are misbehaving in the crew. ”
Zheng Xiaoshuang and Qin Junjie held Zhang Ran's hand, looked at Huang Lei and said seriously: "It's not good to make a small report!"
Zhang Ran laughed and said, "Comrade Huang Lei. Hear no, two children, this is educating you!"
On this day. The official website of "Time and Space Warrior" took the lead in releasing the first trailer, which was the one that Zhang Ran showed to the theater manager at the expo.
While introducing the plot, the whole trailer uses rock music as the background music, coupled with the hot scenes in the movie, giving people the strongest visual impact. Many people are dizzy and feel their blood boiling.
In fact, the trailer of "Time and Space Warrior" is not extremely amazing in North America, and the level of special effects is only above average. But the trailer shows a unique style and appearance in front of everyone's eyes, full of suspense, and at the same time cool and unstoppable.
In less than half an hour, there were more than 100 messages on the official website of "Time and Space Warrior" in the United States, and countless people were excited, expressing their expectations for the movie.
"Oh my God, that's amazing! I saw the trailer so early, but now it's three months before the movie comes out. Tell me how to live!"
"The Chinese actually made such a fierce sci-fi film, but it is rare to find such a fierce sci-fi film, this action looks more exciting than "The Matrix", it seems that it is really worth looking forward to!"
"Great. I've always been worried that this Chinese director will ruin Keanu, and now I'm finally relieved! This combination of gore and violence and grace is really impactful, so cool!"
"I can't stand it, I can't wait to see the movie right away, why did I release the trailer so early, I find that every minute is extremely difficult now!"
At the same time, the media that had been spotted by Lionsgate also began to sing the praises of "Time Warrior", all of whom considered it a high-quality trailer that was "full of conflict and suspense", "exciting scenes one after another", and so on.
However, most of the media chose to ignore it, because there are too many blockbusters and strong films worth paying attention to in this summer file, such as Shrek 2, Harry Potter, Spider-Man 2, "My Machine Qì Man" and so on. What's more, "Time Warrior" was released between "Harry Potter" and "Spider-Man 2", and the prospects are not optimistic. For such a cannon fodder film. It's not worth putting too much effort into reporting.
A few hours later, official websites such as China and France also released trailers one after another, all of which attracted huge attention without exception.
As a die-hard fan of Zhang Ran, Wu Wenbo squeezed in front of the computer as soon as he knew that the trailer of "Time and Space Warrior" was released, ready to catch a glimpse of the movie
"I've been reading science fiction for almost ten years, and I've been looking forward to the emergence of Chinese science fiction blockbusters, and I've finally waited for this day!" Wu Wenbo rubbed his hands, clicked on the trailer video on the official website with his mouse, and stared at the computer with his eyes, not daring to blink for a moment.
The video began to buffer slowly, and the numbers jumped up little by little. Wu Wenbo couldn't help but complain: "What a broken official website, the speed is too slow!"
It took almost three minutes for the trailer to buffer and start playing.
Unlike American audiences, American audiences have never read the novel "Six Paths" and don't know what the story is about, and they pay more attention to the various information revealed in the trailer, while many Chinese audiences have read the novel and know the content of the story, and for them they pay more attention to the scenes of the movie and the action scenes.
After a short plot, Wu Wenbo saw a shocking picture effect,
Accompanied by intense rock music, Reeves rushed towards Brody like a cannonball, and a fierce battle began. The whole action is clean and sharp, full of visual impact, and makes people's blood boil!
A car was blown up, overturned, and slammed into Zhang Ziyi, who was wearing a heavy SWAT uniform. Zhang Ziyi turned sideways and let go of the whizzing car. This action made Wu Wenbo slap the table: "Damn, Zhang Ziyi's action is too handsome!"
On the space carrier, countless soldiers aimed their guns at Reeves and Brody, and opened fire violently, bullets flew sideways, and fire flew away!
Wu Wenbo was dumbfounded: "The space carriers have all come out, it's amazing!"
The runaway space carrier crashed into a building, and the entire building began to collapse, and countless passers-by and civilians screamed and fled for their lives. Reeves sat in the cockpit and desperately controlled the ship, with a continuous explosion behind him, and the flames soared into the sky.
Wu Wenbo was completely speechless, he was completely stunned. This movie is beyond imagination, it's unbelievable, and it must not be missed!
After the trailer ended, Wu Wenbo sat stunned for more than ten seconds before jumping up. His hands slammed the table, almost breaking his hand: "It's so awesome." This scene is also too big, it is ten times bigger than the scene depicted in the novel! The space carrier crashes into the building, and the special effect is simply invincible!"
Rubbing his aching palms, Wu Wenbo immediately decided to leave a message on the official website, and then watch the trailer twice, no, five times. But wait for him to click on the message. I found that there were already more than a dozen messages.
"It's so good-looking! It's not inferior to those Hollywood blockbusters! Zhang Ran is so powerful, he deserves to be my idol! Now whoever wants to tell me that a Chinese director can't make a Hollywood-level movie, I'll use "Time and Space Warrior" to smash him to death! I'm so excited, when the movie is released, I will watch it at least three times!"
"I don't like Zhang Ziyi very much, but I have to say that the action she turned around was so handsome, and the moment she took off the hood, it was amazing!"
"At the end of the novel, there was no fight at all, and the killer was directly trapped with Skynet. And then he died. The fight in the movie is so intense, I am so excited to watch it!"
The domestic media were also amazed by the trailer of "Time and Space Warrior", and they sang praises one after another. Cheered for "Time and Space Warriors".
"Time and Space Warrior released its first trailer, and the scene was shocking. The visuals are amazing, not inferior to Hollywood's top blockbusters!" "Peking Evening News"
"The real blockbuster is coming, Zhang Ran's "Time and Space Warrior" is shocking, he represents the highest level of Chinese cinema!"
Under the large-scale media coverage and the crazy publicity of fans, countless viewers poured into the Chinese official website of "Time and Space Warrior", wanting to see it. Due to the large number of people online, the official website of "Time Warrior" crashed five times in a row. The network administrator was so tossed that he almost cried!
This is not only the case in China, but also in South Korea and Japan. Zhang Ran's "Burst Drummer" is very popular in Japan and South Korea. has accumulated a lot of popularity for them, and everyone is looking forward to his new film. Now after watching the trailer for Time Warrior. It's all addictive. Now the appetite of the entire East Asian audience has been hung, and everyone is full of anticipation for this movie.
After the trailer was released, the promotion of "Time Warrior" in North America was also fully rolled out. Over the next two months, Lionsgate will release a new trailer on Mondays and a new poster on a bi-weekly basis, and the trailer and poster will complement each other.
The trailer and poster have different themes, including six different worlds, including the immigration program, including the new government of the earth, the People's Revolutionary Union, etc., and the whole publicity will be carried out step by step, slowly mobilizing people's feelings. When it's released, it's going to be detonated intensively!
Zhang Ran didn't bother about publicity, the plan had already been formulated, as soon as it was carried out as planned, his current energy is spent on "The Aviator".
This is the movie Zhang Ran really wants to make, and it is much more important than "Time and Space Warrior" in his heart.
Today's shooting is after school at noon, Qiao Zhengfei and Liu Jiao saw a plane flying in the sky on the way home.
Zhang Ran sat down behind the monitor and looked at the picture. Two children were playing in the performance area, and photographer Zhao Fei was fiddling with the camera position with the camera.
The handheld adjusted the angle of the camera, and then asked Zhao Fei to see the picture effect. But at this moment, Zhang Ran sat up straight, his eyes widened, and he stared closely at the picture of the monitor.
In the picture, Zheng Xiaoshuang is facing the camera, and the sunlight shines from the rear right and shines on her side face, making her face glow with an arc-shaped golden halo, which looks particularly beautiful.
It's a beautiful picture!
The image in front of her reminded Zhang Ran of Degas's "Dancing Girl on the Stage," in which the ballerina closest to the audience dances to the music, her delicate body completing a spin and her raised hands stretched gracefully. Under the illumination of the stage lights, her skin and dance skirt show a very attractive color change, giving people a sense of fluttering lightness, presenting a thrilling beauty.
Zhang Ran only felt that the strong sunlight passed through the monitor and went straight to his heart. A strange feeling rose in Zhang Ranxin's heart, like a muse lifting a thin veil, allowing him to see the most beautiful scene in the world, and suddenly he had a kind of enlightenment.
Zhao Fei felt that the camera position was a little wrong, so he moved the camera to the left, the sun in the picture disappeared, and the strange feeling disappeared from Zhang Ran's heart. He stood up abruptly and shouted, "Don't move the camera!
Everyone at the scene looked at Zhang Ran, not knowing what was going on.
Zhang Ran saw that the handheld machine was not moving, and shouted again: "Handheld, I want to backlight, the light is 135 degrees on the right side of the axis, fast!" (To be continued.) )
