Chapter 327: Eight Minutes World
The premiere of "A Bite of China" ended perfectly, with an average rating of 5.764% and a market share of 21.451%, creating a record high for CCTV documentary broadcasting.
This is far from over, after CCTV's seven rebroadcasts, "A Bite of China" has been adjusted to be broadcast at half past five in the afternoon every day, which belongs to a very good time period. As a result, the ratings did not fall but rose, and the first episode of the rebroadcast reached a rating of more than 6 points.
The storm of "Tip of the Tongue" is not destined to be short-lived.
There has been a "wind on the tip of the tongue" in society, and the delicacies broadcast in the documentary have immediately become the first choice of foodies. Those gourmet shop owners who were filmed in the documentary have said that the sales of their ingredients have increased significantly, and some have even skyrocketed by hundreds of times and sold out.
Not only these shopkeepers, but also many other places, as long as the food sold is something that appeared in "Tip of the Tongue", a large number of customers will buy it.
And that's just a microcosm of the influence of "A Bite of the Tongue".
The impact of "Tip of the Tongue" is all-round, from popularity to word-of-mouth, all of which have been done at their best. People who once expressed disdain for documentaries have nothing to say in the face of such standards and quality, and those who want to see Zhang Tan's jokes don't dare to show their heads at all. For example, Lu Hai, who was holding Feng Dacan's stinky feet and expressing disdain for Zhang Tan before, is now completely regarded as not knowing Zhang Tan.
When they went to pick up Feng Cannon's stinky feet again, the two ignored Zhang Tan very consistently.
It's all on Zhang Tan, who has lost his face more than once, and has already left a shadow.
From novels to songs, from movies to documentaries, Zhang Tan's talent has broken everyone's perception several times. Zhang Tan is now only twenty-two years old. Anything is possible, and if another day he wants to develop into the scientific community. It is estimated that there will be many people who choose to believe it.
Of course.
Zhang Tan himself is very self-aware, his scientific literacy. It can probably surpass the level of junior high school, and the scientific knowledge of high school has been returned to the teacher.
After all, he's a liberal arts student.
Just because you don't understand science doesn't mean you don't understand science fiction.
At that time, Zhang Tan was a good student who loved to read and read "Science Fiction World" and "Ancient Legends: Martial Arts Edition" as the Bible. Like Da Liu's science fiction novels, he has read them all. Of course, unlike the imagination of martial arts, science fiction must at least be traceable.
So even if there is no character like Da Liu in this world, and there is no science fiction masterpiece like "The Three-Body Problem", Zhang Tan still can't write science fiction.
"Movies can be done. Before I was reborn, I had just finished watching the movie version of "The Three-Body Problem". ”
Zhang Tan was reborn at the end of August 2016, and suddenly returned to the end of August 2001 fifteen years ago, because he liked the novel "Three-Body Problem" very much, so he watched the screening of "Three-Body Problem" early.
Even if he wants to do "The Three-Body Problem", it will be many years later, because he has only watched the screenings and does not know the specific results of the movie.
However, there is not only one science fiction masterpiece, but there is only one "Three-Body Problem", Zhang Tan has seen too many awesome science fiction films in his last life. There are many memorables. What makes him happy is that there are many science fiction classics that do not exist in this world, and the details of the world have changed. It was his greatest confidence.
"Dude, are you sure you want to shoot a sci-fi movie?" The king will ask very solemnly.
Huayi Brothers and Zhang Tan have been cooperating for a long time, not to mention the popularity of several martial arts dramas. is a "Crazy Stone", which also made Huayi Brothers make a lot of money. made the Wang brothers a firm collaborator of Zhang Tan. Plus the time of the year ago. Zhang Tan spent another 20 million to buy 7% of Huayi Brothers' shares and became one of the shareholders.
Cooperation is a natural fit.
Zhang Tan tapped the table with his fingers and made a crisp sound: "Of course, I have been planning this sci-fi film for a long time, the script has been finalized a long time ago, and I have already written the storyboard script, this will be a good sci-fi film." ”
Lord Wang will nod: "I definitely believe in your ability, you say that if you make a good film, it must be a good movie...... It's just that if we make a science fiction film in the United States, I definitely don't frown. To be honest, it is difficult to achieve much in making science fiction films in China, and to put it mildly, there is no science fiction soil in China. ”
"I know this, so I'm shooting a relatively low-cost sci-fi film now, at present, I estimate that it is an investment of 30 million, after the filming, if the box office sells more than 100 million, it should be so-so, and then release some DVDs, sell some TV premiere rights, it is difficult to lose money."
There is indeed no soil for science fiction films in China, but that is because the quality of domestic science fiction is not up to par, one has no special effects, two has no creativity, and three has no story. As long as it is filmed well, science fiction films have not won high box office. "Avatar", "Gravity", "Inception", and "Jurassic World" have all achieved high box office.
If the Transformers series is also considered science fiction, the box office is higher, and this series has led the domestic box office list for several years, especially the fourth part, if it hadn't failed to extend the release period, it would have almost broken 2 billion yuan.
All in all, Zhang Tan is full of confidence in the sci-fi movie he is about to create.
The king general did not have so much confidence, and said unwillingly: "In fact, we can continue to create comedies of this type of stone, and engage in a crazy series, many of the value potential in which have not been tapped, which is much more reliable than creating science fiction films." ”
From the point of view of making money, the king will be very reasonable.
The new genre of movies is actually an appetizer, and many follow-up works are the real feast of enjoyment. Guy Ritchie first became famous by filming "Two Big Smoking Guns", and then filmed "Robbery and Abduction" to make money; Ning Hao first filmed "Crazy Stone" to become famous, and then filmed "Crazy Racing" to make money.
It's just that when I came to Zhang Tan, I didn't want to continue shooting, this idea was used once, and a genre was created, and it was time to retire. After all, whether it is "Stealing and Abduction" or "Crazy Racing", the reputation is not as good as the first part, and the meaning of making money is even stronger.
Zhang Tan is not bad for money, he just wants to be forced.
"That's it, Chen Li has been with me for several years, his skills are very good, and he is stronger than me in terms of basic skills as a director. I provide a book, which is jointly invested by Luying and Huayi Brothers, and handed over to Chen Li to direct, and I will supervise the production. Zhang Tan thought for a while and said.
Chen Li is his hardcore younger brother and has been mixed up since college.
It's suitable for making some good movies, but Zhang Tan can't watch them.
So, when Zhang Tan was preparing for a new sci-fi film, Luying and Huayi Brothers jointly held a press conference, at which Zhang Tan, Li Yan and Wang Zhu will take the new film director Chen Li to announce the official launch of the movie "Crazy Racing", which will be continued by the original team of Stone.
"Crazy Racing" has a slightly worse reputation than stone, but it is also a rare domestic black humor comedy, and the box office is very good.
At the press conference, Chen Li was very modest: "Director Tan is busy preparing for his new film project, and he has no interest in continuing to direct films of the same genre, I am honored to be called by Director Tan." This "Crazy Racing" is also an idea provided by Director Tan, my level is much worse than Director Tan, but I will follow the style of the stone and work hard to make the movie well. ”
Zhang Tan told reporters: "Chen Li is my college classmate, we live in a dormitory, his grandfather is a fourth-generation director, his family history, his talent in directing is stronger than me, and his basic skills are stronger than mine, what he lacks is an opportunity." I believe that "Crazy Racing" will be taken to the next level under his direction. ”
This is a half-truth.
The fake thing is that if Zhang Tan didn't provide the script and supervise the direction of the film, God knows what Chen Li would have made the movie like. When Chen Li and others filmed "Never Expected", the problem was exposed, and after leaving Zhang Tan's script, their group of people seemed to have lost their spirit.
The truth is that Chen Li has been influenced by his grandfather since he was a child, and his directing skills are very good, with a very good sense of lens and hierarchical layout, and he was also the executive director when shooting stones. Zhang Tan belongs to the theoretical school, after all, he is a halfway monk, and he really did it himself, which is more painful.
However, what he said, in the eyes of reporters and audiences, is modesty, and no one thinks that Chen Li can be compared with Zhang Tan.
Now Zhang Tan has completely gained a firm foothold in the field of directing.
He was originally a celebrity known for his genius, but he turned direct, a "Crazy Stone" was a big hit, and it can be said that it was a fluke, and another "Bite of China" became a hit, which was not a fluke but a skill.
So to speak.
He only made these two regular films, and he is already the most powerful director in China in the eyes of the general public.
Therefore, the reporter questioned very unceremoniously on the spot: "Director Tan, Director Chen Li, as a very young director, directs a movie for the first time, or a sequel to a domestic classic comedy like Stone, will this be too reckless?" What if he messes up? ”
"Ugh." Chen Li was a little embarrassed, picked up the mineral water on the table, and drank it.
Pretend not to hear.
Of course, Zhang Tan has to support his little brother who is messing with him: "First of all, "Crazy Racing" is not a sequel to Stone, it is an independent new story. Secondly, being young does not mean that there is a lack of ability, you look at me, I am younger than Chen Li...... "Crazy Racing" will be a good movie. ”
The reporter wanted to refute again, but "but" and "but" several times, but there was no rebuttal.
The king of writers in front of him, the director who has been in the limelight recently, is only twenty-two years old, if Chen Li is too young and his ability is worrying, then how can Zhang Tan count?
So.
The reporter decisively changed the topic, in fact, their interest in "Crazy Racing" is far less than Zhang Tan's interest in the new film: "Director Tan, your latest work is a science fiction film, and you have already started preparing for filming, can you tell us the specific situation?" ”
This question has been asked many times by reporters.
Zhang Tan had been vague before, and he had whetted his appetite.
He is about to retreat and shoot, and he will not shake the burden at this time, but when: "My new work is a hardcore science fiction film, which tells the story of an eight-minute creation of the world to chase the murderer, and the name currently reported to the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television is "Source Code". I have invited Huang Daliang to be the male lead, and Zhou Taiping and Liu Anfeng to be the two heroines. ”
"Source Code", a classic movie in Zhang Tan's memory, belongs to low-budget science fiction films. (To be continued.) )
