Chapter 331: Avoiding Inception

Chapter 331: Avoiding Inception

Zhang Le hadn't seen Tang Xiao for a long time. And this time, when I went to see the finished film of "Kung Fu", I was a little surprised.

Tang Xiao's face was tired, even a little haggard, and his whole person was also a lot thinner, which was too different from the previous radiant him. However, the look in his eyes was the exact opposite.

"Take a break! However, looking at your expression, I am sure that this film will not disappoint everyone. Zhang Le said to Tang Xiao with a smile.

Tang Xiao has always been strict and even harsh about his movies. At this time, Tang Xiao's face was tired, but the whole person was in a state of excitement. And this state reveals his satisfaction with his work.

can satisfy Tang Xiao, then this film naturally has nothing to say.

"Let's see." Tang Xiao smiled and said.

He was under a lot of pressure to shoot this film, and naturally put a lot more thought into it than he did in other films.

He was afraid that he would smash this movie that Zhang Le had put a lot of effort into preparing. He is also reluctant to pick up ready-made films by himself and make them criticized.

Tang Xiao knows that Zhang Le let himself shoot this film, not because Zhang Le doesn't like this film. It's because of the filming of this film, which has been almost prepared, that the release time can catch up with the 3D boom set off by Zhang Le's "Inception" around the world.

In this film, Tang Xiao not only picked up Zhang Le's ready-made, but also took advantage of Zhang Le's good time.

The gimmick of this film has a combination of "kung fu" and special effects, but the bigger gimmick is "3D technology". With the gimmick of "3D films", it can attract countless movie fans around the world to enter the theater. Even if that film is garbage.

Tang Xiao is a director, not a film and television company owner, and he doesn't want his films to be branded as making money with "3D technology".

The accumulation of many factors made him have to pay attention to this film.

Now that the film is out, the time has come to inspect it.

"Kung Fu", a masterpiece of the star master in his previous life. It is also one of his most influential films. Among foreign fans, this film is also extremely popular.

Tang Xiao's version of "Kung Fu" and Xingye's version of Kung Fu have similar content, but the style is somewhat different. Although there are nonsense in it, it has not reached the point of being superb, and even some places are deliberately avoided.

If it was put in the previous life, it would definitely be sprayed as a dog. For those fans who like Xingye's nonsense, Tang Xiao's film is purely a painting of tigers and not anti-dogs.

But although there are also nonsensical comedies in this world, such as Zhang Le's "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance". But it has not yet reached the point where you would think of Xing Ye when you think of nonsense in your previous life.

Of course, if the fans of the star master in the previous life watched Tang Xiao remake this film like this, it is estimated that they would also be sprayed as dogs.

Zhang Le was a fan of Xing Ye in his previous life, but at this time he was not an ordinary fan. When he watched this film, he watched it more from the perspective of a director and a producer.

A work of sincerity! I have to admit that Tang Xiao is extremely attentive to this film. The style is still comedy, but the nonsense is not as mature as the Xingye version, but it is not to the point where it is unacceptable.

The handling of the details is also extremely in place. The films and characters that are paid tribute to in it are in line with the current situation of this world. And the shooting method of 3D technology also seems pure.

The biggest difference with the Xingye version is undoubtedly the angle of shooting.

After all, although the star version of "Kung Fu" was later made into a 3D version. But when I first started shooting, it wasn't.

And the 3D effect of this film is undoubtedly excellent.

"How?"

At the end of the film, Tang Xiao looked at Zhang Le a little nervously. Asked.

Feng Lei on the side also looked over, and he also looked a little nervous. After all, this movie is starring him. And. The style of the performance is a little different from "Inception", and even from any previous film. He's also experimenting with his own acting style.

Zhang Le smiled, looked at Wu Xiaoyong, and said, "It's better to listen to his opinion first, he is the only one here who is not engaged in movies." He is more representative of the average movie fan. ”

"Why am I not in the film industry? Although you have the most shares in the theater, I don't have no shares. Wu Xiaoyong glanced at Zhang Le, and then said, "Ask my opinion, there are only two words: very good!" I'm bullish on the box office of this film. ”

"Nonsense! Borrowing the gimmick of a 3D film is enough to recoup the cost and even make a lot of money. Can you please be practical. Well, let me put it another way, whether this film can be popular and applauded. When Feng Lei heard this, he hurriedly said.

The film was so popular that no one was worried at all. It's just that he, like Tang Xiao, doesn't like the popularity of this film, but he doesn't applaud.

Because once this happens, it becomes a film that borrows 3D gimmicks to make money.

Money-making films, that is to overdraft the box office appeal of directors and actors.

"The special effects are exquisite, but the visuals are not as shocking as Inception. But the reviews of this film will not be low. Applause, I guess it's not a problem. Wu Xiaoyong smiled and said.

After Wu Xiaoyong finished speaking, he immediately looked at Zhang Le, he really wanted to hear Zhang Le's evaluation of this film.

"It could have been better, you didn't let go." Zhang Le looked at Tang Xiao and then said, "You may be too concerned." But while it is prudent, it is also a limitation. I feel like you're a little bit strapped in this film. ”

Tang Xiao thought about it, and then nodded. He was indeed afraid of smashing, and he did not let go in many places, which was too restrained.

"However, the film is better than I expected." Zhang Le smiled and said, "When do you plan to release this film?" ”

"How's New Year's Day?" Tang Xiao thought for a while and said.

"Why not a few days in advance, still in time for Christmas Eve Christmas or something. Now in China, they are still very keen on Western festivals. Sometimes I really don't understand. I don't see how they are on their own traditional festivals. Wu Xiaoyong asked a little puzzled, and began to sigh after speaking.

"It's not you countless merchants who take advantage of Western festivals to carry out promotions. Why don't you see any discounts on traditional Chinese festivals! When Feng Lei heard this, he immediately said, "Just the online shopping website that you and Zhang Le partnered with, not to mention the discount promotion during the Spring Festival, the price actually increased!" ”

"Looks like you have a stake in that website!" Wu Xiaoyong said lightly.

When Feng Lei heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I have shares, but I can't be the master!" ”

"We're going to call the shots?" Wu Xiaoyong said.

"Let's release it during the Spring Festival!" Zhang Le suddenly opened his mouth to plan the topic of Wu Xiaoyong and Feng Lei, and said.

Zhang Le suddenly figured out why Tang Xiao chose to release it on New Year's Day, instead of a few days in advance. Because if it is released in December, "Kung Fu" at the Golden Dragon Awards next year will meet "Inception".

"Inception" is not only a box office explosion, but also a word-of-mouth, and even many people have predicted that this film will sweep the Golden Dragon Awards next year, and may even win the Oscars.

Zhang Le guessed it, but he wouldn't say it. "Kung Fu" does qualify for the Golden Dragon Award. But if you encounter "Inception", hang!

""Inception" is painted all over the world, and the total box office creates a miracle, shouldn't there be a celebration party or something?" Wu Xiaoyong listened to Zhang Le's words, was stunned for a moment, then reacted, glanced at Tang Xiao, and immediately changed the topic and said.

"The celebration has nothing to do with you!" Feng Lei looked at Wu Xiaoyong with some doubts, and then seemed to think of something, and immediately pointed at Wu Xiaoyong and smiled, "You want to sprinkle a handful of salt on some people's wounds!" (To be continued.) )
