Chapter 232, directorial debut
The broadcast of the finals of "Asian Idol" also represents the perfect end of Phoenix Culture's summer action, and the next thing to start is the preparation and development of the winter action.
Du Qifeng scooped up the script of "Ace Spy", as long as there are suitable actors, it is not difficult to direct this film, there are too many things to learn from.
And "Miss Beauty Pageant" starring Honggu is intended to be handed over to Guan Jinpeng, who played well in "Angel of the Two Poles". This gentleman is not only a good grasp of women's psychology, but also has achievements in other aspects, and there is no pressure to shoot "Angel of the Poles" well, and then shoot this "Miss Beauty Pageant".
In addition to these two films, Phoenix Culture will have seven films to be produced and released in installments before the festival, and these seven films will be handed over to the company's directors to complete, and it has been determined that Wang Jing, the director of one of the Chinese New Year films, the elite comedy "Xinzha Senior Sister".
After losing to ATV in last year's "Brother Xinzha", Wireless made a comeback this year to start filming a sequel, and it seems that it is in a relationship with ATV. Of course, Mo Fei will not miss such an opportunity, since wireless is willing to be stimulated, then completely stimulate them.
In the TV series, Chen Baixiang was used as the protagonist to start filming the historical drama "Clearing Grievances", using the past to the present, and using classical Chinese detective stories to fight against modern urban gangster dramas; I won't let go of the movie, if you hold on to your senior brother, I'll use my junior sister to meet your senior brother, and scoop out the elite comedy "Xinzha Senior Sister" two thousand years after the previous life and make an adaptation. is bound to completely overwhelm "Senior Brother Xinzha" on both sides of film and TV, which can be regarded as a vicious anger of joining forces with the media to block himself when he has nothing to do.
To tell the truth, the films in this series are basically only more than half of each, and after the adaptation, a lot of similar comedy elements have been added, which is very different from the original version of "Xinzha Senior Sister", and when it was scooped out in the eighties, it should be better than the original one in the 21st century.
Although the other films have not yet been completely decided, they can't get out of the frame of the company's several directors, but it is just to see whose style is more suitable for which film.
What worries Mo Fei about the temperature is the thriller "The Silence of the Lambs" starring Honami Suzuki, and the director has never been decided.
If you only consider unilateral factors, there are now two directors in the Hong Kong film industry who can be qualified for this film, namely Yu Yunkang and Mou Dunfu. Both of them were able to scoop the film down, but they couldn't make it into a masterpiece.
Mou Dunfu is a perverted madman, and his pursuit is to create a sense of fear with scenes that are extremely close to the real picture and almost disgusting. Maybe a liar like him filming "731" can still denounce the crimes of the Japanese under the banner of restoring the truth, but "The Silence of the Lambs" is definitely not like that.
There are so many directors in Hong Kong, such as the lawlessness of Mou Dunfu, the crazy pervert of Mai Danxiong, etc., these directors are all able to try not to touch them if they can, their methods of making films may be good, but the means of making trouble are indeed first-class.
And Yu Yunkang is indeed good at shooting horror ghost style films, and can also create a terrifying atmosphere in terms of sound, color and environment, but his style is not very suitable for this movie.
Phoenix Culture's plan is that no new films will be released in the Hong Kong film market from September to mid-November, but it does not mean that there will be no new films in other regions. North America, the world's largest film market, will naturally not give up on Halloween in the future.
The film "The Silence of the Lambs" is a new film that is ready to be released during Halloween. With the achievements of this film in its previous life, it scooped up the five biggest Oscar awards, and the global box office was more than 10 million US dollars; In this era, the requirements are not high, as long as you can scoop up one or two award nominations, the box office can reach more than 100 million US dollars, it is a quite successful film.
I haven't found a suitable director for so long, and now it's less than two months until Halloween, and the film has to be reviewed and filmed after it is made, which takes time, and the time left for the production of the film is about a month, and there is no way to wait any longer.
In the end, he simply put his heart on the side, since he couldn't find a suitable director to run this film, it was better to go into battle to be the director himself. With the version of the previous life as a reference, and then get the storyboard out again, it will be shot as a B-grade film, no matter how bad it is, it will not be much worse than finding a random director.
After deciding on the director of the last film, he will start to gather the directors of other films, hold a meeting to arrange the task of filming, and everyone can start to prepare, it seems that there will be time until the end of the year, but the days will really pass quickly.
"The scripts have been sent to everyone, and these are the films that our company will make before the end of the year." Mo Fei sent the script to the corresponding director, and said: """Xinzha Senior Sister" will be handed over to Ah Xiang to be directed, this film will only be released in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, you don't have to be too anxious in terms of time, you can start the release before you can." The actor uses Liang Chaowei, the heroine uses Guan Zhilin, and the other roles are just arranged by you.
The film "Miss Beauty Pageant" is here, and when Honggu comes back from filming in the mainland, he is ready to start the film, his subdivision over there should be almost completed. For the actor candidate, I still tend to use Zhang Guorong, fortunately, there are not many subdivisions of the actor, let him take a few days off over there to get it done, the same is true for other actors, you can make arrangements, this film will be released in early December.
"Pink Alliance" is directed by Wan Yao You, the male and female protagonists use Liu Songren and Wang Zuxian, and the other two more important roles use Guan Zhilin and Sister Ya's champion Li Meifeng, and the rest is also for you to consider. The protagonist of "Soul Catcher" has not been completely decided on my side, this will only be released in January, Director Xu, you choose the actors slowly first, and you are not in a hurry to start filming right away.
The film "Mr. Sweetheart" will be entrusted to Director Yan, I am going to use Liang Chaowei, Lin Qingxia and Ren Jinghua for this film, this is released during Christmas, Liang Chaowei's schedule, you and Ah Xiang discuss it to see how to coordinate. The release time of "Ace Big Spy" is planned for mid-December, and the heroine and villain No. 1 have already set the runner-up of Sister Ya, Ye Yuqing and ATV's Dong Biao, Qi Feng, how is the actor thinking about it? ”
Du Qifeng nodded and replied: "I thought about it seriously yesterday, among the actors in Hong Kong now, the most suitable actor to play the leading role in "Ace Big Spy", I think it is Zeng Zhiwei, this actor has drama performance skills, the image page is very suitable for playing ugly, and the performance is relatively bold. ”
"Well, I'm also more inclined to this actor, but if you're the director, you have to see if you have the confidence to control this actor, it seems that there should be no problem." Mo Fei looked down at his work notebook and nodded.
Now Du Qifeng was even more secretly glad that he had to consider the choice of actor yesterday, which was indeed to test himself. If you can't recommend the right person, maybe you will let yourself direct this film, but you will definitely not value yourself so much.
After determining the actor candidate for "Ace Spy", Mo Fei continued: "Like last year, we will also launch another star-sparkling New Year film this year to greet the audience who wants. In short, it's still the old rule, this film doesn't pay salaries, and finally scoops out half of the box office as everyone's year-end dividends. ”
The meaning of these words is obvious, the director of the Chinese New Year film has not yet been determined, maybe it is not last year's directors Wu Yusen and Wang Jing, as long as they can perform well in the film at the end of the year, it is very likely that they will get the opportunity to be the director of this New Year film, which is an honor in Phoenix Culture.
After finishing speaking, he paused, giving everyone a time to understand and digest, and then raised his head again and said: "There are two more films, one is next year's New Year's drama, and the other is a thriller that will be released in the first round of Halloween in North America." Let's put the New Year's drama aside, let's talk about this thriller first, I have bought the copyright of "The Silence of the Lambs", and I have changed the script, and I am ready to direct this film myself, you all help think about it, is there a suitable assistant director to recommend.
