Chapter 54: A Quiet Summer

In 05, Jin Yong's drama became popular.

Lao Zhang's long-prepared "The Condor Heroes" is ready to start filming.

The story of Yang Guo, Xiaolongnu and the eagle can be said to be known to everyone, and it is a big IP in the absolute sense.

If anyone can play Yang Guo, it basically guarantees that his popularity will definitely have a chance to soar!

At that time, the highest voice was Nie Yuan!

In 05, there were only a few students in the mainland who could be selected for Yang Guo.

Lao Hu definitely has no chance, the dominance of that drama is in the hands of Huayi!

Nie Yuan was also an actor under Huayi at that time.

Zhang Jizhong is optimistic about him, and netizens are also optimistic about him.

Then Huang Xiaoming took the role, just like the original "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance 2" said that it was Deng Chao, and when filming was about to start, the male protagonist was suddenly replaced by Huang Xiaoming.

The devil knows what's going on!

Brother Xiao Ming is really well-connected, "New Dragon Gate Inn" just announced the preparation of the project, he found Huang Wen as a lobbyist, then Chen Farong, and then Wang Zhonglei...

Thanks to the cannon glow, it's enough to persevere...

"The main thing is that Brother Xiaoming's image is not suitable for this role, if one day I want to shoot a daily life of a domineering president, I will definitely find him!"

Pao Hui thought for a moment, and replied 'seriously' and sincerely.

A reporter laughed out loud in the audience...

, Cannon Hui is serious!

"That Wan Qian and Yu Feihong, are they also the actors you are looking for according to their roles?"

"Of course, my criterion for selecting actors is to conform to the image of the character!"

"But... Chen Kun's role seems to be a eunuch!"

Are you here to stir up trouble?

"The role of Brother Kun is the big boss in the play, and he needs a certain amount of acting skills, and his identity is the big eunuch of Dongchang! If I find someone else, I'm worried that I won't be able to control such a role..."

I owe Chen Kun a lot.

The role of Cao Huaqin, Xu Hui, does not concentrate much on depiction, and he has two characteristics: strong martial arts and ruthless means.

However, Chen Kun has his own charm as an actor.

Yuhuatian, such a typical role used to contrast the male protagonist, was also played by him as a factory flower!

"I heard that this time I'm going to shoot in 3D?"

"Yes, in fact, I also wanted to use 3D at the beginning of "The Lion King", but there are too many night scenes in it, and the 3D mode itself is easy to cause the viewing effect to be blurred, I tried it a few times, and the picture was miserable, so I gave up, however, last month, the special effects company we have been working with has overcome the difficulties, so that the brightness and contrast of the picture can also show a good 3D effect at night..."

Xu Hui roughly explained.

"Director Xu, what is your box office expectation for this movie?"

"The production cost of this "New Dragon Gate Inn" is 250 million, and the box office must be at least 800 million to recover the cost..."

"You mean 800 million at the box office?"

"I think the audience still likes my martial arts films, and the Chinese New Year file is the time for the whole people to watch movies, so let's set a small goal, 1.5 billion!"

“… Chinese New Year?"

"That's right, the end of the year, the end of the year!"

"However, Director Zhang's "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" seems to be also set for the New Year..."

"Is it the first time I've heard of this, but it doesn't matter, I'm a martial arts and action theme, no conflict!"

"You mean direct head-to-head competition?"

“… Not to mention any competition, I have always felt that Chinese films have been able to develop to this day thanks to the steadfastness, hard work and intentions of filmmakers..."

"But Zhang Weipin said that competition can make Chinese films more prosperous..."

"Zhang Weipin? Is he a director? What is his masterpiece? If it weren't for Zhang Yimou, who would know him, who would be Zhang Weipin!"

……

Xu Hui did it on purpose.

These days, hype also requires skill.

And the object chosen must be specially considered.

Like Feng Xiaogang's Weibo scolding netizens, it is quite tiresome to turn on the Hushubao mode with all his might;

If he scares variety show movies, it will make people feel okay!

Zhang Weipin is definitely a character that many Zhang Yimou fans hate.

Yes, "Hero" opened up the blockbuster model in the mainland, but the main investor of "Hero" was Jiang Zhiqiang, and Zhang Weipin at that time had neither the confidence nor the money to accompany Zhang Yimou to transform together!

Then, in sixteen years, Zhang Yimou completely became another Zhang Yimou, where did Zhang Yimou, who filmed "Red Sorghum", "Alive", and "The Red Lantern Hang High"?

In addition to Zhang Yimou's fans, the industry's evaluation of Zhang Weipin is not good.

I think he is a typical villain.

Bully people by flaunting one's powerful connections.

What is his most awesome move, "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" was released, Zhang Weipin notified the major theaters through a contract that after the release of "The Thirteen Hairpins", the box office sharing ratio between the new crown and the theater chain should be increased from 43% to 45%, and the minimum ticket price will be increased by 5 yuan.

When "Hero" and "The City Full of Golden Armor" were released, he also stubbornly increased the producer's box office share ratio from 33% to 40%.

As a result, the launch conference ended, and a bunch of press releases appeared on the Internet.

"Set a small goal, box office 1.5 billion!"

"Who is Zhang Weipin?"

Zhang Weipin also responded quickly, in response to Xu Hui's 'questioning', Zhang Weipin said with confidence: "The film market cannot be analyzed in this way. There is no comparison between films, and there is no comparison between directors. It has been 100 years since Chinese cinema came to this day, which director has surpassed Zhang Yimou's influence in the world? So do you compare the films of other directors with Zhang Yimou's "Thirteen Hairpins"? I won't change the schedule anyway!"

Pao Hui also responded on Weibo: "There are always some people in the film circle who are indiscriminate, and anyone can point fingers at Chinese films! Don't look in the mirror to see how many pounds and taels you have! Open your mouth and shut up and seek a director, think about the works that director Yimou made before, and then look at his works after I met you, I want to say, if Zhang Yimou wants to 'return', the first thing is to get rid of your control!"

"Hehe, expect me to change the schedule? Think too much! Speaking of the box office alone, I'm not afraid of anyone, let's see!"

Directly under the war letter!

It's the first time that Pao Hui has been so tough on a filmmaker!

Fans were boiling, eager to draw their swords immediately, the sword was pointed at, and they were invincible.

It's a pity that Zhang Weipin didn't even have a Weibo...

I was holding my blood in my heart, and I was so uncomfortable that I panicked...

So they left all kinds of messages on forums and post bars...

In short, there are still nine months left in the Lunar New Year file, and these two movies have been hyped...

……

"Wouldn't you offend people too much by doing this? How can you say that Director Zhang Yimou is also a senior!"

"Hehe, I just want Director Zhang Yimou to quickly recognize what the hell his partner is, and then abandon the darkness as soon as possible!"

When Ning Xia arrived, a group of people got off the plane, and Xu Hui explained to Mr. Wu Gang with a smile.
