Chapter 239: News of the New Film

All of a sudden, the famous director Shen Zhenghui in Asia is about to shoot a new work to enter Hollywood, which has become the headline of the world's mainstream entertainment news.

And during this period, it was when "Ryoko Yakushiji Strange Incident Book" and "Shanghai Fortress" were released one after another, and with this hot hype, Colombia almost woke up laughing. First of all, "Yakushiji Ryoko's Strange Incident Book" unexpectedly became popular, its unique atmosphere and story attracted curious young people, many people watched the movie dazed, only remembered Fujiwara Norika's appearance in the movie, and at the same time the inexplicable monster in the movie was unaware, a large number of people watched this movie repeatedly, so the box office revenue soared, of course, the Japanese Americans in it contributed a lot of box office.

At the high level, bureaucrats who maliciously complain about their own government seem to be able to cause some kind of resonance in various places, and the reputation of "Ryoko Yakushiji Strange Incident Book" is surprisingly not bad. Of course, the prestige of Tanaka Okami is also one of the reasons, this veteran author who has been complaining about his own government for more than 30 years, and his imaginative and realistic critical style is very popular with his peers. Films that set records in Japan also hit the box office in the United States.

"Shanghai Fortress" is also not weak, with rigorous and exciting war themes, grand war scenes, and sensational love stories, which also attract young audiences. After watching the movie, many people exclaimed, "Is the military power of the Chinese already so strong?" They actually have an aircraft carrier formation? Fourth-generation aircraft can actually form a sea of fighters? ”

I don't know how this film got through the censorship of the Americans, but maybe this is the conspiracy of the Americans. Although they are now busy fighting Afghanistan and Iraq, and are in an alliance with China that needs each other very much, they still do not forget to make small moves in these small places. The release of "Shanghai Fortress" certainly promoted Shen Zhenghui's fame and Colombia's income even more, but at the same time, a large number of newspapers and magazines, consciously or unconsciously, began to analyze China's military strength, although it is not yet mainstream.

There are two tendencies here, one is to promote the theory of the China threat, and take this film to talk nonsense about how advanced China is - their fourth-generation aircraft are hundreds or thousands, the aircraft carrier formation is ready to go, and at the same time there are millions of troops, and even the Oriental Pearl Tower is a hidden secret weapon.

The other is to directly peel off the skin of "Shanghai Fortress". It is advertised that the film is a gold work on the face of the China government. Fourth-generation fighters have not been established at all, their navy is not comparable to the Japanese Self-Defense Forces, and the only advantage is the number of troops. But the military is prone to mutiny under dictatorships, as in Afghanistan and Iraq.

This may be a propaganda war. If you need to increase military spending in the future. Just amplify the voice of the report. If you want to inspire confidence in the U.S. government, amplify the voice of propaganda two. The high propaganda services of our country still have a lot to learn from on this issue.

The only thing the Chinese government has done is a TV show in which Zhang Juzuo reviews and analyzes the "Shanghai Fortress" in which he participated. Although the bureau is proud of his appearance in the movie, it is only three or two shots, but it is very photogenic, and it establishes the image of a professional naval commander. But in the program, he painfully announced that the reality of our country's army construction is far from keeping up with the movie, what fourth-generation aircraft has not yet been established, aircraft carriers simply can't afford to raise them, and so on, which he kept talking about three months before the J20 test flight. The Strategic Fool Bureau is much more professional than the propaganda department in some respects.

Two consecutive works have been recognized in the North American market, and they are still two works of different genres, which simply makes many people have more hope for Shen Zhenghui. The Hollywood news turned back to Japan and China, which actually stimulated the enthusiasm of fans in both places, and everyone was full of anticipation for director Shen's Hollywood debut, and everyone discussed with great interest on the Internet what type of film director Shen's first Hollywood debut film would be.

Interested fans listed the films that Shen Zhenghui has participated in or directed over the years, and found that they are either kung fu movies or war films, and even his debut film "The Cruel History of Peking High School" is paying tribute to Bruce Lee. In the context of Brother Long and Brother Jie's deterioration and Hong Kong movies entering the decline, it seems that Shen Zhenghui has become the leading figure in action movies.

"So it must be a kung fu movie."

"I don't think so, it should be like "Shanghai Fortress", a film that wins with scenes and special effects shots, Hollywood's technology is so good, it must be filmed in Hollywood with Hollywood technology."

This is the focus of discussion among Chinese audiences, and in comparison, Japanese audiences are more concerned about what kind of actors Shen Zhenghui will use.

Because he has always adhered to the principle of using Chinese actors for filming movies in China and Japanese actors for making movies in Japan, everyone in Japan feels that Shen Zhenghui has a good impression of Japanese actors from top to bottom, especially the success of Tomoaki Aonuma in "The Green Hornet", which can be said to be the pinnacle of Japanese actresses, so this time to make films in Hollywood, the Japanese media are also keen to discuss which Japanese actor can win Shen Zhenghui's favor and play an important role in his Hollywood movies. Of course, they know that the main role in this movie should be Hollywood actors, but maybe one or two of some important roles will fall on Japanese actors...... Or in the case of Chinese actors, the entertainment industry is excitedly discussing who will be the lucky one.

However, for Shen Zhenghui, these two topics are too far away, and at this moment, he has probably just decided what the theme of the story he wants to shoot is. But before he could start preparing for the film and discussing the investment of the film with Columbia, Thomas came over with other news.

"What? Another party? If you don't go, you can't do it. Shen Zhenghui really can't stand the party activities of Americans, if he goes to the party as an ordinary rich person, it may be an interesting thing, with all kinds of rich people's bad tastes to realize their evil ideas and the like, but as a public figure, Shen Zhenghui feels that he also seems to have some obsessive-compulsive disorder, and he has a strong sense of discomfort when he thinks of those stars who have appeared on the front page because of scandals, drug abuse and other news. It's okay for high-level parties to be hypocritically polite to each other, and the naked power and sex trading of low-level parties is too shocking.

"Director Shen, this gentleman is a big man." Thomas was very cautious from his expression, "If it's not necessary, it's better to attend, after all, you will also need connections in the United States in the future, right?" ”

"And who is he?" Shen Zhenghui asked. (To be continued......)
