Chapter 403: Premiere!

Catherine, as the director, gave the opening speech

"It's a pleasure to be here at the premiere of Twilight, thank you to DreamWorks Summit Entertainment for your support, thank you Wang, thank you Heidi Martin, thank you DreamWorks for your support. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info also thank the actors Christine, Robert, Ashley Greeney, Taylor Lautner and many more for their support.

As you know, we didn't get support for our project at the beginning, and there are still a lot of people who think it was a bad decision, and yes, we are under a lot of pressure.

Now it's time for the market to put it to the test, I think I've done my best, please enjoy the movie. ”

Catherine's words are not good, but they are true.

To this day, there are still many people who think that "Twilight" was a bad decision.

"Boss, I think even if this movie is successful, director Catherine is not suitable as a director for a sequel. Heidi Martin said to Wang Meng.

After listening, Wang Meng asked, "Why?"

"Director Catherine is a very stubborn director, yes, she is too stubborn. In fact, if this movie had been according to her expectations, it wouldn't have been like this! Can you imagine that she actually wanted to make an idol TV series into a literary movie? Fortunately, we have the final editing rights, otherwise we would not dare to guarantee the theme of the movie. Heidi Martin Daw.

Wang Meng knows that Catherine is a stubborn director, or a director who puts literature and art first, and it can be seen from her previous works that most of them are literary and artistic, and it is possible for such a film to win awards, but there is no need to think about making money.

And it is precisely today's Summit Entertainment that lacks money-making movies, rather than award-winning movies.

According to Heidi Martin, if it weren't for the final editing rights and her producers, "Twilight" would have gone sour a long time ago.

Therefore, during the filming process, Catherine reluctantly finished filming the film for the sake of the contract. But it was not the style she wanted.

Strictly speaking, it was Heidi Martin and assistant director Chris Weitz's intention to shoot.

"Then who do you think the director of the sequel will favor after the success of this one?" Wang Meng was not surprised after a simple understanding.

He knows where the movie is going, and it can be said that the Twilight series is a hodgepodge, the first director is Catherine Hardwick, the second is Chris Weiz, the third is David Slade, and the fourth is Bill Condon......

The director of each film is different, and perhaps it is precisely because each director has his own style that makes this series successful.

"I think the assistant director, Chris Weiz, is good. After Heidi Martin finished speaking, she looked at Wang Meng carefully.

Wang Meng was unexpectedly happy, and said: "I believe in your vision, as long as the first part is successful, everything below will be controlled by you, I have no opinion." Again, if you have a good work plan, you and Rob can decide, and I'll just know about it in general. ”

Wang Meng can be said to have delegated power, and it has done a lot of power.

Heidi Martin doesn't know that in China, 'a man dies for a confidant, and a woman is tolerant for a self-pleaser'. But I was very touched by Wang Meng's trust.

"Thank you for your trust, you know that we are not idle "Bomb Disposal Unit", "The Bloom Brothers", "Moon Adventure", "Never Back Down", "Beauty and Ugly Girl", these works are also selected by us to produce or publish. With the release of "Butterfly Effect" and "Saw 2" and more recently "The Shining", the company no longer needs the capital injection from the headquarters, and even has a lot of surplus. ”

"Very good, I heard Zhao Jisen of DreamWorks say. But how many of them don't seem to be ideal?" Wang Meng said.

"Yes, the boss, "Beauty and Ugly Girl" and "The Bloom Brothers" are not ideal, and even lose money. But we have a lot of confidence in "Bomb Disposal Unit", this film may be difficult to make money, and we are confident in the awards. ”

See, Heidi Martin said so confidently, Wang Meng smiled, it seems that the inertia of history is really big.

As for "Bomb Disposal Unit", Wang Meng knows that he is excellent, even if Heidi Martin doesn't say it, Wang Meng will also remind him.

Because this movie, which was not favored at the beginning, is simply against the sky in terms of awards.

2010 Academy Awards for Best Picture – Winner – "Bomb Disposal Unit", Best Director – Kathryn Bigelow's "Bomb Disposal Unit", Best Original Screenplay – Winner – Mark Bauer "Bomb Disposal Unit", Best Sound Effects – Paul Otuson "Bomb Disposal Unit", Best Film Editing – Winner – Chris Innis "Bomb Disposal Unit", Best Sound Editing – Winner – Paul O'Tunson "Bomb Disposal Unit".

Best Actor - Nominee - Jeremy Renner "Bomb Disposal Unit", Best Cinematography - Nominee - Barry Eqlaude "Bomb Disposal Unit", Best Original Score - Nominee - Marco Bertami "Bomb Disposal Unit".

2010 Golden Globe Awards - Nomination - Best Motion Picture - Drama Category, Film Category - Best Director - Nomination - Kathryn Bigelow, Film Category - Best Screenplay - Nomination - Mark Bauer.

These are just the Golden Globes and Oscars, and "Bomb Disposal Unit" has won a total of 121 awards and 85 nominations worldwide.

The prize-winning tycoon of the red fruit.

It's just that it won't be until 2010, and the reason why it was released late is also for the sake of winning awards.

So listening to Heidi Martin's sonorous answer, Wang Meng said: "I believe in you, you have the final say on the release of films in the future, and as for the production, I need to understand." ”

"Of course boss, we trust your vision, just like "Never Back Down" and "Moon Adventure" we postponed, after all, your "Matrix" is about to be finished. Our next step is to promote your Matrix. In terms of production, in addition to the three parts of "Bomb Disposal Unit", "Twilight Zone" and "Dance Out of My Life 2", Summit Entertainment does not plan to expand this year. As long as these three are successful, we will have the confidence to deal with next year's plan. ”

"You have a good vision, and I believe that next year's summit will be a glorious year. Wang Mengdao.

After listening to Heidi Martin's words, Wang Meng was relieved, and I have to say that this woman, including CEO Rob and Danny of the distribution department, has a really good vision.

The three famous movies in the future were favored by them.

Sometimes Wang Meng felt that the previous peak was really unlucky, and as soon as Nima left, he rose.

I don't know if the previous peak boss will be sad after seeing the rise in his own hands.

After the opening remarks like a vent, the movie begins.

But many reporters seem to hear dissatisfaction from Catherine's mouth, and it is not difficult to imagine that a good news has appeared.

Presumably tomorrow's report will be-" Catherine is dissatisfied with the constraints of the summit, and has parted ways with the entertainment of the summit. ", "The results have not been revealed, they have failed, and the future of "Twilight" is bleak", "The jokes of several women are still a joke"......

Coupled with Wang Meng's mouth-opening cannon before, the reporter felt that it was not in vain.

After the movie started, Wang Meng nodded frequently, compared with the original, it was more exciting.

Not to mention the plot, at least the production is better.

After all, I am willing to spend money, the original version is difficult to shoot, and it is not easy to complete.

In this way, Wang Meng is also relieved, the first part of the original version is 350 million US dollars worldwide, and this time it will cost 400 million US dollars. Don't be sorry for your money.

After the movie, a brief interview was conducted.

Film critics already have an understanding of "Twilight", and it doesn't seem to be as bad as they think.

As for the connotation, no.

However, it seems that it can make money for book lovers, and with handsome guys and beauties, it seems that it is very good for young people to enter the cinema.

Again, the guys generally understand why Catherine is upset? Obviously, the style of the film is not Catherine's.

This kind of idol fantasy theme is not Catherine's specialty.

In comparison, it was the different styles that caused Catherine and Summit to part ways.

Anyway, neither journalists nor film critics have a good impression of "Twilight".

If Wang Meng knew this, he wouldn't be worried.

That's it for the original, and in the midst of the scolding, the box office has been soaring. made many people who scolded the film feel aggrieved.

Nima, we scold like this? The box office is still so high, how can we be embarrassed!

Many people even think, "Why don't you change to kneeling and licking?"

But it was vetoed, and there was no other reason.

Of course, they will still sigh for a long time to come: Woman, woman, crazy woman!
