Chapter 205: If you want to blame it, blame the world
"Prepare well, enter the crew in three days, and don't be late for the opening ceremony when the time comes." Xiao Jian got up with a smile and said.
"Don't worry, I'll be on time." Zhang Guorong nodded with a smile, said goodbye and left the café, Dillon also smiled and nodded, and also turned to leave.
After deciding to take over their respective roles, the three got together again and chatted about "The True Colors of Heroes", and Xiao Jian also analyzed their respective roles for the two, and then separated, but when they left, the three of them could already be regarded as friends.
………
Seeing the figures of the two disappear from sight, Xiao Jian sat down thoughtfully, just now, while chatting, both Dillon and Zhang Guorong told him that this Christmas file was not so simple, and the two of them in Jiahe and their friends in Xinyi City told them that because of the fiasco of this summer file, the two companies planned to fight with him in the Christmas file.
Xiao Jian, who heard it for the first time, couldn't help but be shocked, the so-called shopping is not an ordinary box office battle, and the meaning of the shopping struggle is to win at any cost, even if it is a big loss.
At the same time, because of the hard work, this time the Christmas file, whether it is Golden Harvest or New Art City, it is impossible to tacitly stagger the release date, and it is likely to be released on the same day as "The True Color of Heroes".
It seems that the previous summer file and the box office results in the first half of the year have hit the two leading companies enough, so they unanimously decided to stop his movies in this Christmas file.
In fact, it's not surprising to think about it, you must know that in the history of Hong Kong films, there are a total of 5 films with a local box office of 30 million so far, and 4 of them belong to Xiao Jian's works, and at the same time, these 4 works are also nominally Shaw Brothers.
Of course, although Xiao Jian was a little surprised by the box office war of this Christmas file, he was not worried, although he was not 100% sure that he could win this victory, but 80% of the certainty was still there.
And now Xiao Jian's mind is not on this, but on "The True Color of Heroes", and he has struggled for a long time to shoot this film this time.
In history, this classic film is known as the counterattack of four failed men, and these four men are Dillon, Zhang Guorong, Zhou Yunfa, and John Woo, it is this film that makes the four, and it is these four people who make this film.
This time, Xiao Jian filmed this film half a year in advance, which can be said to have robbed the opportunity of the four people, among which Zhang Guorong and Dillon are okay to say, after all, the two of them still played the roles that originally belonged to the two of them as in history, but Zhou Yunfa and Wu Yusen lost a chance to rise.
It's just that Xiao Jian really likes the movie "The True Color of Heroes" very much, and he also doesn't want to let go of the classic role of Brother Xiaoma, so after several hesitations, he still decided to shoot this film in advance.
Moreover, Xiao Jian's decision to shoot this film this time is also selfish, robbing Zhou Yanfa's little brother is not a kind of revenge, as for John Woo, he is purely implicated, after all, he really doesn't want to participate in other directors' works, so he can only be sorry for John Woo.
Speaking of Zhou Yanfa, in fact, he didn't have an opinion on Fa Ge Xiaojian before, and even liked each other's movies very much, but after being with Chen Yulian this time, he was very unhappy, not jealous or anything, but felt that Fa Ge gave up his relationship with Chen Yulian for 5 years because of his parents, which is really not a man.
And in history, it can be said that Chen Yulian's life was ruined, so Xiao Jian was a little unhappy in his heart, of course, after going through so much, he is not a person with a small belly, not to mention, in a sense, he also has to thank Fa Ge, after all, if Fa Ge didn't give up, how could he be with Chen Yulian.
It's just that this time Chen Yulian has been gone for half a year, and there is no sign of coming back until now, which makes him very unhappy, so he has the idea of snatching Fa Ge's classic character 'Little Pony', and finally puts this idea into practical action.
Therefore, sometimes a man's revenge is more terrifying than that of a woman.
It's just that he thought about it well before, but now when it's time to shoot, Xiao Jian always has a sense of guilt, feeling sorry for Fa Ge and Wu Yusen, which makes him a little uneasy.
It's not that he hasn't used other people's works in the past, but the previous works are more than ten years away from now, but this time the difference is only half a year, which inevitably makes him feel strange.
"Forget it, I still don't think about it so much, now that it's been decided, don't regret it." Shaking his head, Xiao Jian dispelled the chaotic thoughts in his heart, "Moreover, this Christmas file is extraordinary, and only "The True Color of Heroes" has eighty percent certainty in "Police Story" and "Best Partner 4"... and other classic movies to win.
Moreover, being a reborn person is cheating in the first place, not to mention, the world is very cruel, if you want to succeed, you must step on others to climb up, and it doesn't matter if you take other people's works, after all, in this world... None of these works have yet appeared, and since they have appeared in his hands, they are his works.
"Whew..."Spit out a breath of turbidity, Xiao Jian got up and left, the account had already been settled by Zhang Guorong, who came first when he came, so there was no need to settle it again.
Leaving the café, walking on the crowded streets, looking at the men and women walking in a hurry, Xiao Jian's originally heavy mood was inexplicably improved, and the whole person seemed a lot more relaxed.
Living in this world, it doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong, it's his ability to create these works in advance, and those original creators want to blame the world, after all, it was the world that chose him and let him be reborn here, not the world that he chose the world.
You must know that his current situation is not good, if you want to complete your plan, the results of "The True Color of Heroes" are indispensable, he is not qualified to pity others now, and there is no time for him to feel guilty about unfamiliar people here.
However, after this incident, his displeasure with Zhou Runfa has disappeared, and he doesn't think that he robbed the two of them of a chance, and these two people will not succeed in the future, not to mention, even if the two really don't rise in the future, it's a big deal that he will help the two of them once at that time.
However, for the sake of his success, he has no intention of sacrificing the success of others, for his own sake, he must succeed in this Christmas box office war, and he will tear apart anyone and everything that dares to stand in his way.
That's what he is... The enlightenment of Xiao Jian! (To be continued.) )
