Chapter 119: "Rain of Swords" premieres
Zhang Yimou's status will not be repeated, just one sentence, if today's director can achieve one of his achievements, it is estimated that he will be praised to the altar!
It's a pity that the world's famous film masters are belittled for nothing by a bunch of self-proclaimed movie-savvy mobs in their own country.
It seems that if you don't step on his feet, you are not Chinese!
Still, his appeal is there.
The reason why Lay's in later generations binds Zhang Yimou is not because he wants to go public!
The reason why Xu Hui mentioned him was the same, to dig Zhang Yimou into the world of Huiwen!
At the beginning of the new picture, the top three film and television companies in the country, Zhang Weipin is also a famous filmmaker in the country, when he is the most awesome, he can discuss the proportion of sharing with the eight major theater chains, and he can unilaterally raise the ticket price!
He thought it was all because of him?
If it weren't for Zhang Yimou, the theater wouldn't have brought him at all!
The two Zhang separated, many people in the industry said that Zhang Yimou was going to finish playing, it turned out that Zhang Yimou is still Zhang Yimou, but the new picture has been reduced to a third-rate film and television company, leaving Zhang Yimou, Zhang Weipin no longer has the previous scenery unlimited...
……
"I think for a director like Zhang Yimou, who already has a statement and status, what he is looking at now should be the movie itself, not commerciality, Zhang Weipin is essentially a businessman, and these two are not all the way at all!"
Xu Hui looked at a few friends and continued: "I don't really believe that Zhang Yimou will be willing to criticize Zhang Weipin's works for him, starting from this aspect, I believe that the contradiction between these two people will become more and more irreconcilable!"
How can a director, especially a director who has already made a name for himself, be at the mercy of the producer.
The boat scene of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" is said to have been added by Zhang Weipin to the crew, and when Bell signed the contract, there was no memo of this boat scene...
You, a producer, interfered with the filming?
This is simply an insult to Zhang Yimou!
It is estimated that it was just the fuse, with Zhang Weipin's character, it is estimated that he has already begun to interfere with Zhang Yimou's normal filming process...
"Brother Wen, find an opportunity, let's go meet Director Zhang Yimou together and reveal our thoughts to him..."
"Wouldn't this be too much?
"What does he know? Are we breaking the law?"
The juniors meet the seniors, this is the rule, it makes sense everywhere!
"There is a problem, Xu Hui, Zhang Yimou is from the Northwest Circle, and his relationship with our Beijing Circle..."
Huang Wen thought of something and kindly reminded him.
Pao Hui didn't care at all: "Come on, what kind of Beijing circle, northwest circle, wait two years, you will know, whoever has money is the boss! Don't always be in circles, believe it or not, someone will spend money to invite Chen Long, Hong Jinbao, Li Lianjie and other kung fu superstars to accompany him to make a short film for about an hour?"
“… Who would be so boring?"
Chen Farong subconsciously asked rhetorically.
"Hehe..."
Pao Hui smiled and said nothing.
What rich people think, I really can't guess!
……
"Inception" won the mainland box office championship for two consecutive weeks, and the reputation is strong.
The topic is highly discussed.
There are no stupid people in the circle, in this case, there is no real force, it is better not to have a hard anus!
Many movies that are expected to be released in early September have been rescheduled.
In the entire September file, before the 20th, except for "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree", which was released on the 16th, there was no domestic movie worth watching.
Zhang Weipin is full of confidence, he has Zhang Yimou in his hand, and he is not afraid of anyone!
It's a pity that even with Zhang Yimou's blessing, the box office of "Love of the Hawthorn Tree" is only worth more than 100 million...
In itself, "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" is a pure literary film, and there is no superstar blessing, and the male and female protagonists are all newcomers.
Even if Zhang Weipin blows through the sky and drags "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" to "Huang Feihong", the box office of the movie is still not very good...
It's not the same type!
"Inception" ravaged the film industry in September, a bunch of movies were shifted, and they all chose to be released on September 24.
It is clear that you want to besiege "Rain of Swords" head-on!
International kung fu superstar Universe Dan brought his "Jingwu Hero: Chen Zhen", and the peerless and invincible bad movie "Dragon and Phoenix Shop" cooperated by Ren Xianqi and Da S was also released on September 24.
In other words, "Dragon and Phoenix Shop" is so bad, it is simply overwhelming...
To paraphrase a netizen comment, 'After watching this thing, I just want to say that this is also called a movie!'
……
On the evening of September 23, Wanda International Cinema in Beijing, the premiere of "Rain of Swords".
After the appearance of the actors and directors, Xu Hui appeared as the finale of the producer.
is also a martial arts action movie, "Rain of Swords" will undoubtedly be compared with "Once Upon a Time".
The host asked this question according to the script, and Xu Hui took the microphone and replied: "... There is actually no comparison between the two, I watched "Rain of Swords", and my impression is that it should not simply be classified as a martial arts movie, or it creates a new martial arts genre!"
Without waiting for the host to ask questions, Xu Hui continued: "Practicing revenge, national disaster and family hatred, national righteousness and even the grievances of the master are all themes that martial arts films are keen to express, from this point of view, the overall tone of the story of "Sword Rain" is very different, this is a martial arts movie without any political slogans and loyalty and righteousness, not even metaphors and ironies such as grievances and martial arts conspiracy, it is a pure work..."
Speaking of this, Xu Hui stopped, as if recalling something: "Actually, when I first saw the script, I didn't like this story very much, I myself have always hated this kind of cliché storyline, but Director Su is obviously not simply shooting a treasure hunting type movie, after reading the entire script, I think this movie is not so much martial arts, but more a suspenseful romance in the coat of martial arts." ”
"The whole movie is full of the finesse and warmth between urban men and women, full of all kinds of dazzling details and humor! I like this kind of movie very much, and I also believe that my aesthetics should be quite in line with the public, so I will boldly recommend this movie, I hope everyone can go to the theater to support our "Rain of Swords"!"
Xu Hui briefly introduced a few sentences about "Sword Rain", which whetted the appetite of the audience.
The host then asked: "I heard that the heroine Yu Feihong was personally invited by you?"
Yu Feihong has been very popular recently, and her popularity has suddenly popped up, of course, this is the result of the deliberate guidance of Fang Huiwen, the producer of "Sword Rain", but her own temperament is indeed very attractive.
At this time, Yu Feihong looked at Xu Hui who was talking to the host with a light smile on her face.
“… Yes, in fact, I have always wanted to cooperate with Mr. Yu, but there has never been a particularly suitable opportunity, after reading the script of "Sword Rain", the role of drizzle, the first impression in my mind is Mr. Yu!"
"It's probably because the impression of the Amazing Fairy is too deep!"
Xu Hui added.
