Chapter 420: I'm afraid I'm going to lead another boom

Chapter 420 I'm afraid it's going to lead another boom

Co-directors must not only have a tacit understanding with each other, but also have a lot of fame. Liu Meng and Chen Ke are not the same in terms of status, and even ability.

Chen Ke has the heart to help, and Zhang Le doesn't dare not know what to do. What's more, directors and actors are different. If the actor is in front of the stage, if someone is supporting, it will undoubtedly increase the exposure, and it is okay to take the opportunity to take the position. But after all, the director is behind the stage, relying on this kind of position, he will become famous, and he may not be able to increase the appeal of the box office.

The director still has to rely on the work to speak. Liu Meng's film work is only one, which is too different from an old director like Chen Ke. To put it mildly, he is not qualified to co-direct with Chen Ke at all.

Liu Meng has unlimited potential, and in Zhang Le's view, it is definitely possible to become another director of Xinle Film and Television with box office appeal. If this stains him a little, it will undoubtedly outweigh the losses.

This is naturally a refusal for Zhang Le, who wants to reuse Liu Meng.

Chen Ke has been in the entertainment industry for decades, and the twists and turns in it are not known to the ministry. He had good intentions, but after being rejected by Zhang Le, he reflected it. Naturally, there is no opinion on Zhang Le's proposal.

Although Chen Ke is a great director, he is not a conceited person, and he is also good at learning. Although there are many places in his movies that have a strong personal style, those do not affect the movie itself.

When Liu Meng got the news, he was undoubtedly shocked. Of course, he was shocked not because he had just brought a high-box office movie to Xinle Film and Television, and he was "demoted", from a director who could direct independently to an assistant director.

"Wolf Warrior" is still being released, the popularity has not subsided, and fans are still discussing when Liu Meng will release a new film. If people who don't know the situation know that he doesn't make movies and just acts as a deputy for others, I'm afraid they will suspect Xinle Film and Television of unloading and killing donkeys.

Liu Meng naturally didn't think so, he knew very well that his opportunity had come.

Chen Ke is very famous in the Chinese circle, and it can even be said that many famous directors are his protégés. Even Zhang Le, the most well-known director in the world, has been instructed by him, and Zhang Le has never denied this, and even mentioned it from time to time.

And almost all of the young directors who became famous in Xinle Film and Television have followed Chen Science.

Liu Meng is not very old, and he only filmed TV series before. Today, although the first film was a huge success, it has not been carried away by it. He is aware of his own shortcomings, and he also knows his own position.

Among the directors of Xinle Film and Television, Zhang Le is undoubtedly an all-rounder, and he seems to be good at any style. Comedy, action, sci-fi, mythology and magic, etc., whether it is a commercial film or an art film, it is not a problem. It's just that he prefers commercial films.

And others are good at comedy, some are good at science fiction, and some even lose money at the box office, but they can win awards. Among the many genres, there is no war involved, which is why he was able to become a film director from a director who shoots TV series, and even got Zhang Le's script.

Liu Meng naturally studied the script of "The Battle of the East China Sea" at the first time, although it involved things in war, it was different from the traditional one. But this made Liu Meng see another direction of war films.

Unlike the United States, there has been no war at all in recent decades. Not even a small war. Of course, secretly it doesn't count. So if you want to shoot, you can only shoot decades ago. This undoubtedly limited the development of military films. After all, movies are not like TV series.

Just like this "Wolf Warrior", because of Zhang Le's relationship, the military is very supportive. But the scene still failed to make Liu Meng enjoyable. After all, this movie is about a "war" between the army and mercenaries, and if you get a lot of high-tech combat readiness, you will be a little too worthy of those mercenaries.

Although "The Battle of Los Angeles" is an alien invasion, it puts the war in Donghai, the largest city in China, which undoubtedly makes Liu Meng's blood boil. His investment in this game is several times or even ten times that of "Wolf Warrior", so it goes without saying that scene.

What's more, this movie is science fiction, and Liu Meng can play a greater imagination.

The film industry is that small. Xinle Film and Television set up two films, and the news spread not long after. The big investment in the two sci-fi blockbusters has made many film and television companies uncomfortable.

However, for those in film and television companies, it is not this that is imminent. After all, these two movies are not going to come out in a while. They are undoubtedly more concerned about the completion of Zhang Le's new film, when it will be released.

No film and television company wants to collide with Xinle Film and Television's blockbusters, let alone Zhang Le's films.

There is not much news about Zhang Le's new film, but for people in the circle, it is obviously more known. Although this is a science fiction movie, it is different from the previous "Inception", which tells about the overlapping space, and "National Day" of aliens.

This is a story about robots.

In science fiction films, there is undoubtedly a big category about robots. Of course, this is for Hollywood. Before Chinese science fiction films, it was a desert at all. After Zhang Le grew up, he led the development of Chinese science fiction films. But now I still can't escape Zhang Le, or the model of science fiction movies produced by Xinle Film and Television.

In the past, Xinle Film and Television led the boom of alien movies, and now the films that follow the trend have become disasters. And this movie about robots, with Zhang Le's consistent style, is afraid that it will lead a boom again. Moreover, many film and television companies are already considering whether to shoot some low-budget robot movies, which will be released immediately after "Iron Fist".

In fact, quite a few people have already started to do it. Although it may not be released in theaters, the emergence of online video websites has given these movies a lot of room to survive. And each of Zhang Le's movies undoubtedly follows the trend the most. However, what makes people laugh and cry is the largest video website in Huaxia, in which Zhang Le accounts for the largest shares.

Therefore, Zhang Le is still very clear about the flood of alien movies. It's just that what he didn't expect was that some of such movies could actually be in theaters.

"Iron Fist" has not yet been promoted, and even the start-up is very low-key. But there is still a lot of news about this movie. Of course, this is mainly because Zhang Le's movies are too popular.

If someone pays attention, there will naturally be media chasing.

In fact, a film that combines robots and kung fu is full of gimmicks. If it were another director, it would also attract attention. It's just that Zhang Le's fame overshadows the creativity of the film itself.

Zhang Le's film is not short of creativity at all.

Many people believe that the "failure" of "The Grandmaster" at the box office made Zhang Le start thinking about the way out of Chinese kung fu films. And "Iron Fist" is the product of his thinking.

But more people don't think so, especially those who are loyal fans of kung fu movies. Combining kung fu movies with robots may be a way out for kung fu films, but it loses the most essential thing of kung fu.

This movie Zhang Le does incorporate kung fu, but if it is another attempt at the development of kung fu, it is also a bit excessive. Even during filming, Zhang Le revised the script because of this, and complained in it.

Robot fighting is just a combination of robots and fighting arts, but it is definitely not a combination of robots and kung fu.

Fighting is not kung fu.

There is a lot of kung fu involved in the movie, but when those kung fu is used on robots, they only have their shape, and they have no essence.

Some things can't be perfect. (To be continued.) )
