Wang Jinghua left Huayi Brothers with a large number of artists and switched to Orange Sky Entertainment, when anyone watched the big tree of Huayi Brothers about to fall, 1+1 Company suddenly announced that it had reached a cooperation with Huayi Brothers, which was strange in itself. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Seeing that the death hole of the Huayi brothers is poked, how can I say that: I saw him rise up a tall building, I saw him feast guests, and I saw his building collapse.

Shouldn't the back be white, and the land is really clean?

But these two people are good, and they came directly with the construction team.

Immediately afterwards, Feng Xiaogang also announced that he would go home, and his studio was attached to the name of Huayi Brothers, coupled with Huayi Brothers' high-profile announcement of the renewal of Li Bingbing, Zhou Xun, Huang Xiaoming, which was originally a big drama, was instantly diverted.

Huayi Brothers also got out of the crisis smoothly, for which Wang Zhongjun also specially called Song Zheng to express his gratitude.

The brothers of the Wang family finally understood what Feng Xiaogang meant by that sentence this time.

"Zhengzi is benevolent and righteous, and he won't do anything that falls into the well!"

Thanks or something, Song Zheng naturally didn't take it to heart, the reason why he wanted to do this was to repay his kindness, no matter how stiff the relationship between him and Wang Zhonglei was, but he never forgot who provided a big tree for him to lean on when he first entered the showbiz.

When Feng Xiaogang announced that he would go it alone, Song Zheng and Huayi Brothers collaborated on "Hurricane Rescue", which was considered to be a favor, and now they have finally paid back the rest of the favors.

In fact, Song Zheng didn't want to completely overhave with Huayi Brothers before, after all, the previous contract had also expired, and it was not unkind for him to choose not to renew the contract now, but as soon as he saw the artists under Huayi Brothers collectively jumping ship, if he interrupted the cooperation of Huayi Brothers at this time and turned his head to get together with Orange Sky, what would it be called?

Add insult to injury!

Song Zheng can't do such a thing!

For Song Zheng's choice, people feel very incomprehensible, and several media want to come over for an interview, but they are all rejected by Song Zheng, he is now busy filming "The Assembly", in addition, he is busy writing the script of the movie in cooperation with Lionsgate, how can he find time to accept any interviews.

This cooperation with Lionsgate is Song Zheng's first step into Hollywood, and he naturally does not dare to be careless, and the theme he chooses is also a commercial film of the standard Hollywood model.

The script has been written as early as the Chinese New Year, of course, it is said to be written, but it is actually an adaptation, picking out the more successful commercial films that appeared in the previous life and adding appropriate Chinese elements.

John Lee and Jane?? Lee is an enviable and ordinary couple, since they met in Colombia 5 or 6 years ago, the two handsome men and beautiful women have been living a peaceful life.

But life may be too peaceful, and both of them feel that marriage is almost like a grave, so that even a marriage psychologist can't solve the gap between them.

But soon the Li family began to discover a new passion in life, the two were unexpectedly attacked by killers, and both of them were thrillingly saved from danger, it turned out that they respected each other and never knew each other's work secrets, the two of them are both legendary killers, well-trained, and highly skilled in killing, the key is that they also carry out missions for two rival organizations.

This perfect killer husband and wife duo have recently been thrilling because they received the latest mission to assassinate each other one by one at the same time, and the pride and work ethic of the two have escalated the assassination operation.

After a series of "accidental" events, both husband and wife realize that they have been targeted for assassination, and the person they love is the opposite of each other.

That's right, Song Zheng wants to adapt the handsome Brad Pitt and his daughter-in-law Angelina Jolie made the "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" in their last life.

After the release of this standard Hollywood commercial film, although the criticism was not short, the results at the box office were really good, with a total box office of 480 million worldwide and a box office of 180 million in North America, which can be called a success.

The most important thing is that the investment in this movie is not large, and the total investment in the original version is only 100 million US dollars, and a large part of it is spent on the two leading actors.

Song Zheng roughly calculated that if he were to shoot now, at least a large part of the cost could be saved, about fifty or sixty million US dollars.

The original movie itself has no connotation, but it is an almost perfect popcorn movie, so to describe it, it can be said in a word, what art and the like don't talk about, handsome guys and beautiful girls, passion and action, love and fighting, explosions and bullets, all these elements, enough to stimulate people's adrenaline hyperactivity, almost all of them are here.

As for the criticism after the release of the original version, who cares, as long as people see what they want to watch, then, what reason is there to think that such a film is not good?

The original version is in this kind of controversy, the box office has been red, the actors are popular stars in Hollywood, and the director is also a director who plays with cool films like "Spy Shadows".

And Brad?? Pete vs. Angelina?? Julie's topics in and out of the film all attract people's attention.

On being handsome, Brad?? Pitt has been playing for years, and is making great strides towards acting, from "Babel" to "Death of a Sharpshooter" to "Benjamin?? The Curious Things of Barton", as well as "Shameless Basterds", all of them are not just handsome, they all have good acting skills in them, and they have also been shortlisted in major award seasons, but in the end, there is no Oscar confirmation, but so many masterpieces plus masterpieces such as "Burning Years", "Love in the River", "Sixth Sense Life and Death Love", "Seven Deadly Sins", and "Fighting Club", even if they are not recognized by the Oscars, they will inevitably leave a name in film history.

And Angelina?? Jolie came out of "Tomb Raider", and then to "Wanted" and "Agent Sauter", all of which are showing the box office appeal of an actress, and "Strong Heart" and "Changeling Suspicion" are also showing Julie's good acting skills, and definitely not spending fists and embroidering legs, just relying on sexy circle money, she is not only enchanting and charming, but also has a charitable heart, and adopts several children of different skin colors, which is a unique wonder of Julie in Hollywood.

Stay with Brad?? Pete married and gave birth to twins, and the life of the "Smith" couple is also almost the embodiment of perfection in the eyes of outsiders.

Got Brad?? Pete vs. Angelina?? Julie's box office washing, even if the story is naïve and deliberate, can still be forgiven.

Originally, just look at it, big cast, big production, but the story is more beautiful because of its simplicity.

Speaking of which, the story was originally just screenwriter Simon?? Kimberg's master's graduation work when he was a student at Columbia University Film School, think about Chinese universities, for a graduate's graduation work, some of them are immature, and it is understandable.

Not to mention Simon?? Kimberg later wrote scripts such as "Xtreme 2" and "X-Men 3".

Director: Doug?? Liman, at that time, had also successfully walked out of "Spy" and successfully proved his directing ability.

Its sharp editing and cool action have created a new genre for secret agents in film history, and directing a film like "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is almost familiar with the steering wheel.

But now that the director has changed, the protagonist will naturally have to change, but Song Zheng is also confident that he will make a good commercial film that can attract the audience into the cinema.

First of all, although his popularity in the United States is not as good as Brad Pitt, but the MMA iron cage battle at the end of last year has also attracted him countless fans in Europe and the United States.

In addition, there is another reason why Song Zheng chose this movie for adaptation, from the perspective of narrative structure, "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is actually very similar to Xiangjiang's "Dark War", both are two people's plays, both enemies and friends, and then try all kinds of ways to meet each other's moves, fight wits and courage, in a limited space, almost perfectly bring out the potential of the individual, and there is always a superhuman performance, and even beyond the imagination to play some tricks, so that the audience feels excited and more exciting.

And the original director Doug?? Liman also generously admitted in an interview that this is indeed a tribute to Xiangjiang Films to some extent.

Because he was also deeply fascinated by the Xiangjiang films of the 80s of the last century, or even earlier, in the Zhang Che era, when filming "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", he thought of many elements of the Xiangjiang films, and then he used them invisibly.

And imitating the filming techniques of Xiangjiang movies, Song Zheng is obviously more familiar with it than Doug Liman, after all, there are many cultural differences in it, and Song Zheng will be more comfortable to use many of the shooting techniques of Xiangjiang movies.

What's more, this movie doesn't rely entirely on visual effects to attract the audience's attention, and there are still many praiseworthy points in the storyline.

Isn't it chilling for a couple who were originally loving to secretly kill each other as their own responsibility?

Who knows that the one who lies next to him every day is a super killer?

Just like "True Lies", a housewife in a mid-life crisis dreams of being a hero all day long, but she doesn't expect her husband to be a super agent like Rambo, and the new sense of excitement and adoration that brings to people can regenerate a woman.

And in "The History of Violence", marrying a former super killer, and then following him to live an almost secluded life, but finally one day his past was revealed, and he also had to face a new choice, whether to leave or stay, the killer who put down the butcher knife or the killer?

"The History of Violence" is also a very artistic and imaginative film, but "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" gives people two different stories, in this story, although the husband and wife sleep together every day, they secretly run their own livelihoods, constantly killing people, and the final goal is actually their own husband and wife.

Of course, it doesn't talk about more ethics and morals here, but just shows this simple and contradictory state of life, and then fills the screen with hot scenes.

So, it's a popcorn movie, and it's so full of elements that it sometimes makes people forget to blink and forget to eat popcorn.

In addition, the movie "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is a good metaphor for love from the beginning to growth, using the story of war, the gorgeous and shocking action scenes feast the audience's eyes, and the twists and turns of married life interspersed are thought-provoking, what is love, what is marriage?

I have to admire, director Doug?? Liman ingeniously compared the assassination mission of the two killers to a marriage.

It may not be uncommon for two people to fall in love with each other and get married, but they do not fully understand and trust each other.

Everyone hides their own little secrets and carefully protects their own space, just like in the film, each of them has a secret arsenal.

Until one day, an accidental event caused this disguise to begin to peel off, and in the face of each other's new image, both parties would be uncomfortable, so friction was inevitable, quarrels and contradictions followed, and war broke out, and Mr. and Mrs. Smith, like any other family, smashed the house to pieces, but they used guns.

If you look at this film as a visual metaphor for marriage, this film will have a new point of interest and become interesting.

At the beginning of Jane and John's encounter, they were full of mystery to each other, and they didn't know that they were both killers, but they just thought that fate allowed them to escape death together, everyone thought that it was enough for the two to be happy together, and then they got married, but neither of them considered the nature of their careers, how much impact would they have on themselves or each other when they got married, they obviously didn't realize that the war was coming, it was like all kinds of flash marriages in real society, the two sides had only known each other for a few months, and everyone didn't have a deep understanding of each other, so they got married hastily, and they didn't think about what would happen after getting married, thinking that they could be happy after getting married now, as everyone knows, marriage brings a kind of responsibility, not a feeling when you are in love.

Then the scene turned, and the two got married, but they didn't have a very happy time with each other, they went out at the same time in the morning, drove at the same time, but in different directions, and returned home at night, chatting about some very life topics, but they didn't seem to be from the heart, more like pretending to be perfunctory to each other, because they were afraid that if they said more, they would expose their identity as killers.

The deception of each other makes the two parties more indifferent, and all the words are all playing on the spot, just like getting married, after a period of time, thinking that the other party is no longer the person who is in love, without a deep understanding of each other, I don't know how many things the other party hides from themselves, and slowly this kind of incomprehension has become an insurmountable gap, and gradually they all become indifferent, under the same roof, but the heart is different.

Immediately afterward, the assassination mission that Janeny and John take on makes the war imminent, and this encounter is not like starting to hold * in the playground* Win toys, but really want to destroy each other, just like the marriage blindly indifferent, do not understand, and later as long as the contradiction escalates to the point of no return, the war broke out, out of control, try all kinds of ways to get rid of each other, want to let themselves win in this marriage war, even if there is still a trace of love for each other in their hearts, but the wrong reason will tell themselves that the other party no longer loves themselves, and they should no longer love each other, and because of the previous deception, both parties are not trusting each other, and they are not willing to sit down calmly and say a double sentence to each other"Actually, I still love you, I don't know if you still have feelings for me", marriage is inevitably crumbling in the wind and rain, when I really want to leave each other, I understand that the other party is so important, blame myself for not cherishing it at the beginning, just like Mr. and Mrs. Smith obviously have aimed their guns at the foreheads of both parties, but they are reluctant to shoot, just because after experiencing this war, they understand that "I still love you as much as I used to be".

At the same time, I have to say that the director's clever use of cheerful music makes the confrontation scene between Mr. and Mrs. Smith at home as if it were just a normal husband and wife quarrel, which is particularly rich in life.

In the end, after the Smiths understood each other's intentions, they wanted to continue to be "calm" like this But at this time, their common enemy appeared, and they had to take up arms again to destroy the enemy, but this time they were fighting side by side, honest with each other, without deception, this is when marriage faces wind and rain, we must understand that we are in the same boat through thick and thin, and husband and wife should face difficulties together and support each other, rather than deception, indifference, and distrust, and understand that these common experiences are each other's best memories, which are sweeter than love.

If love is compared to a piece of sugar, so sweet that people have an endless aftertaste, then the wind and rain faced by husband and wife together is like a cup of bitter tea, after a burst of bitterness is a trace of sweetness, which makes people know how to cherish each other more and understand what love is.

It turns out that if you raise simple love to the height of marriage, you will face this responsibility for treating each other, and you need to continue to maintain this love with sincerity.

According to expert research, the hormones secreted when falling in love will only last for about two years, and then both parties need to maintain it, so the line at the end of the end is not bad at all: "We must work together, this is the marriage must go all out".

In such a shootout film, director Doug Liman also deliberately added a comedy color, downplaying the bloody part, in all the killing scenes, it is difficult for the audience to pay attention to the faces of the killed, and even the camera does not shoot those at all.

However, the audience can clearly see that the couple gambled with each other during the battle period, and lived and died together in the final face of a common enemy.

If this is just a gunfight movie, Song Zheng can't think of any reason, the director puts the focus of the performance on this, and has to create a short and witty atmosphere in this kind of scene.

So, if you look at it from another angle, you can understand why Mrs. Smith prefers large guns and why she behaves so strongly, if she really plays two killers, so that a woman can perform a little more fiercely than a man, and piggyback on a bit of barbarism, of course, it will have a dramatic effect, but why is this not the role played by women in family disputes?

Isn't Mr. Smith's tolerance in the midst of conflict just the usual practice of a good man in a family dispute?

And Mrs. Smith's excessive discipline in the later pipeline rescue operation is easy to think of the general attitude of women in household health work.

For the storyline, although the battle in the supermarket killed many people, the bosses of the two companies did not come forward, and the story should not have ended at all, but after that, I saw the satisfaction of the two with their marriage.

In the usual films of this type, when the final battle is about to begin, the film ends after a stupid interview, which is too strange!

What the audience is looking forward to should be that the two of them will return to the company's headquarters, and then kill the boss, and at the very least, they should fake a death together like in "Prison Break", and then fly away.

But no, it's like marriage, after experiencing war, reaching an understanding with each other and returning to the ordinary.

"Mr. and Mrs. Smith" uses espionage and gunfights as a metaphor for the "seven-year itch" of married life, and uses the spy war as the bright line to connect the romance of love at first sight, the tedium of a dull marriage, the stalemate of the cold war between husband and wife, the intensification of family conflicts, the unity of defending against foreign enemies, and the happiness after the fierce battle, the hidden line of this family marriage.

If Mr. and Mrs. Smith shed the coat of killers, in fact, every man and woman in reality, before they met, were already independent individuals, living according to other people's orders, and the people who issued the orders were their parents, the people around them, or themselves.

Until one day, in a special environment, everyone else is in pairs, and it is very dangerous to be "single" again, so two people with their own needs come together, which can be regarded as love at first sight, and it can be regarded as a matter of course, and it begins.

In the life after marriage, both parties still maintain their own habits, belong to their own "organizations", live under the same roof, but do their own thing, and slowly develop a common code of abide.

For example, when you go home at 7 o'clock in the evening for dinner, the male protagonist and the female protagonist are inside, and they attend the neighbor's party together, when they go out, both parties are back to their true selves, and when they return home, they start to disguise again.

Life like a stagnant water has buried a lot of hidden dangers in marriage, under the oven, under the utility room, on the wall, etc., when there is no contradiction, these are all beautiful on the surface, life is calm, and once there is a contradiction, it will come in handy.

These hidden "weapons" are unconsciously buried by both parties in married life, perhaps out of habit, maybe because of a lack of security when going out, or maybe because of a lack of trust.

Finally, one day, the contradictions of life are about to erupt, and the two sides are ordered to assassinate a key person.

This explicit goal may be any small thing in life, but the actual goal is the other person.

As a result, family conflicts are stimulated, and both parties show their true colors, fight at home, smash the bench, smash the TV, and vent all the inhibitions in an extreme way, until one party compromises first, changes his attitude, and the scarred two people get back together, even more than before, and start the relationship between the two parties again in a mess.

However, the external contradictions have not yet been resolved, and the "upper echelons" who have always set the two sides against each other are not willing to accept the failure of their own plans, and use various means to prevent the union of the two people.

In addition, the husband and wife were unprecedentedly united to resist external pressure, and in the side by side, both sides revealed their hearts, told the truth, strengthened their strength, and repelled the enemy's brief attack.

Unwilling to fail, the "leadership" again organizes forces on a larger scale, and at this time, is faced with evasion or confronting?

Therefore, the two chose to face it, determined to solve all the opposition forces, and the two sides chose "home" as the position, and the wonderful life lies in the fact that although the two faced a life-and-death battle, they fought side by side with happiness in their hearts, and finally won the victory.

The film also cleverly tells people the needs of both husband and wife.

Men need to have a delicious meal at home and be considerate when cooking, women need a husband to rely on and a heart of love under their chests, and a happy marriage needs to have harmony and beauty*.

It's just a pity that when the director was filming, in order to protect the box office, he paid too much attention to commercial elements, and deliberately downplayed this part, only careful audiences can perceive the director's true intentions, but unfortunately, most people just regard it as a standard popcorn movie, which is why when the movie was released, there were a flood of bad reviews.

When Song Zheng rewrote the script, he deliberately strengthened this element, and I don't know if it was obsessive-compulsive disorder, in short, he was like adding something more in-depth to this Hollywood-style commercial blockbuster.

The script has been written, and the rest is perfect, after copying for so many years, from songs to scripts, from domestic to foreign, he is now proficient, and the writing is drifting upward.

Next is the actor, the actor is naturally Song Zheng, he is the box office guarantee Balabala, and then Wang Qianyuan played the villain boss, Song Zheng deliberately added a lot of scenes to him, and the remaining small roles can be decided by Lionsgate.

The only thing that is difficult is the heroine, according to Song Zheng's original idea, this role should be played by a Hollywood star, and the first thing that comes to mind is Angelina Jolie in the original version, but Sister Big Mouth definitely doesn't look down on him, and his value is too high, so he passes it.

Other Hollywood actresses are not without suitability, such as Jessica Alba, but that sexy sweet girl is too bad for Song Zheng to look down on.

The result is that Song Zheng finally decided to choose among the domestic actresses, so it will be easy to do, first make a list of the actresses who know and are familiar, open the palace, and then slowly screen them inside.

But the problem is ~~~~~~~~

Song Zheng stroked on it for ten minutes in a row, and finally found that Nima was not suitable!

That's not a problem!
