Chapter 126: Zhao Benshan's Whimsy

In fact, since the beginning of "The City is Full of Golden Armor", the news of Zhang Yimou and Gong Li's reunion has not been broken, and what Wang Zhonglei did made the news even more confusing.

Wang Zhonglei got a makeup photo of Gong Li in "The City is Full of Golden Armor", this photo is too shocking, and most of the exposed round and squeezed career lines can make people instantly ignore Gong Li's overall shape, fall into the ditch at a glance, and can't get up if you want to.

When the news that Gong Li and Zhang Yimou were in line was hyped, Wang Zhonglei found a media and wrote with a striking red headline, 'Zhang Yimou can also be vulgar', next to this sentence, is Gong Li's makeup photo!

This is the attack that Wang Zhonglei wants to show, he wants to cause a wave of public opinion and make many film critics criticize "The City Full of Yellow Armor" is too vulgar!

Just, is this possible? Can a makeup photo really cause a wave of criticism? Even if there are vindicators who set off this trend, what will the end result become? Anyway, there will definitely be no national boycott, even if this drama has a flood of bad reviews! Maybe domestic fans shed a piece of laughter on the Internet without knowing why, waiting for the follow-up of the makeup photo to be revealed. You don't see the moment when "Wuji" was scolded to the point of desire-life-death, how many people watched Zhang Baizhi's meat scene in the cinema and picked up tents, and how many people started to curse and vulgar on the Internet after watching this meat scene!

The key is that there is no larger scale than "Wuji" in "The City Full of Golden Armor", Zhang Yimou manipulated the puppets wearing only tulle to dance on the edge of the Lei Pool, which just achieved the middle gap between attraction and seduction. If you can't stop someone, it's just like this, just like some Chinese people in later generations who like HBO large-scale American dramas. There are also people who like to find plots in romantic action movies, these two kinds of people, people may not watch the films you give him real guns directly. You may even feel that the thing is too direct and lose the feeling you want.

After listening to Wang Zhonglei's entire description, Shao Yingying asked over the phone: "Are you receiving a salary in your heart?" ”

Shao Yingying is now completely helpless by Wang Zhonglei, he asked Wang Zhonglei to fry the scandal of "The City is Full of Golden Armor", and the performers were upset by the news of Zhang Yimou and Gong Li's separation and reunion, which more or less distracted the actors when acting, so that they can be more or less distracted when acting. The quality of the performance will decline. But Wang Zhonglei has to add to the snake, isn't it tantamount to promoting your heart picture by exposing the makeup photos at this time? Okay, as soon as this picture comes out. Maybe how many people are looking forward to the release of the movie, your Wang Zhonglei's report is to spend Huayi's money to pave the way for the heart picture.

"What's the matter? Now there are a flood of bad reviews in China, and the heart picture is scolded miserably, isn't this a good thing? ”

"Brother Xiao Lei. I took it. Okay? I beg you, can you stop messing with Huayi? That's it, Huayi's business, you are now completely handed over to Mr. Wang, and I have more important things to do with you, isn't "Hippie Smiling Face" on? Next, the company will arrange for Ning Hao and Lao Xu to go out for further study, and you follow the two of them out, and take care of people for me during this period. By the way, I also learned about movies and hype in two places, what is going on, okay? ”

For Wang Zhonglei. He really didn't have much to say, and that's all he could say.

Wang Zhonglei's method has indeed made many critics give the makeup photo of "The City Full of Golden Armor" a lot of criticism, but is this thing a problem for filmmakers? Even if you want to make a fuss about these things, it's not now!

Fortunately, the release of "Hippie Smiley" did not bring any bad news, otherwise......

The release of "Hippie Smiley" has made this summer's theater a touch of coolness exclusive to Huayi, which is different from "Crazy Gem", "Crazy Jewel" is eye-catching from the story structure, except that Ning Hao's storytelling technique is not the same as others, this story is actually an old stalk, "Hippie Smiley" does not have the outer packaging of old wine in new bottles, and reaches out directly to people's hearts.

Some people say that every line of "Hippie Smiley" can speak to your heart, such as the sentence "Time took away a qiē, but only left me behind", the whole sentence makes people feel a faint sourness. But isn't this feeling exclusive to youth? When you look back, everything is good, and in the present, everything is over.

Another example is the sentence that detonated the audience in the movie theater, "This is a woman, there is a lot of spring love between the eyes", and the next sentence is "unfathomable between the legs"......

The whole movie is completely vulgar in the freshest way, Xu Jinglei put all the style into the movie, even the sentence 'After many years, our faces are still young and bright, but our hearts have become tattered' has become a narration, and Shao Yingying only has two words to comment on this movie - worrying.

The movie did not hit the box office as high as "Crazy Jewels", nor was it as elegant and popular as "Crazy Jewels", and the total box office of the whole movie only won 23 million, but this movie was shortlisted for six nominations for the Golden Rooster Awards, although the key competition for Best Actor and Actress was lost, it defeated "Beautiful Shanghai" in the Best Feature Film Award, and Tong Dawei won the cup in the Best Supporting Actor award. Of course, the film was also shortlisted for the Palme d'Or, but it's a pity that Wen Chang didn't make a splash, but went to the Cannes Film Festival and went around and back, and returned home without winning the award.

With the Best Feature Film Award, Xu Jinglei finally breathed a sigh of relief, first of all, "Hippie Smiling Face" did not lose money, and secondly, she won the award, Shao Yingying's request for her to overfulfill the task, not to mention, but also accumulated a lot of hardcore fans for herself.

These two foreshadowing made Lao Xu feel her own shortcomings while being proud, so she applied to the company for suspension, Shao Yingying got this suspension application, and he felt relieved when he saw that the reason for the suspension was to go to school. How precious it is to be a director who can discover his shortcomings anytime and anywhere, this is a talent that every company is looking for. Immediately after Shao Yingying's pen, Lao Xu's further study expenses were fully reported, and the company arranged to send him to France to study.

Lao Xu's style cannot be suitable for Hollywood, and some training courses in France are in line with her, and cultivating talents can't be anything good, it depends on which wave she belongs to.

At the same moment, Ning Hao came up with the script of "Crazy Racing". Shao Yingying didn't even look at it, he directly said two words, and he didn't approve it!

Ning Hao was stunned. He felt that Wang Zhongjun's commitment and Shao Yingying's cultivation had finally made him come out of nowhere, why did the book he sent back to this end?

As a result, Hua Yi's arrangement made Ning Hao ecstatic, Hua Yi contacted Quentin and sent Ning Hao to the crew of "Torture Room" for further study at the cost of a small investment. Ning Hao didn't take the position with him, Hua Yi had only one requirement for Quentin, from the beginning of the formation of the group to the end of filming, as long as Ning Hao was in a working state, he must be present.

Plainly. is to let Ning Hao go to Quentin as a tail.

This kind of opportunity is definitely not much for Ning Hao, a director who has just come up with a '30 million' box office, and it can even be said that he is happy from the sky, not to mention the suspension of "Crazy Racing" to have this opportunity. It doesn't matter if your entire career stops for a year or two.

After arranging for his two directors to further their studies, Shao Yingying finally waited for Wang Jiawei and John Thor, who came back from abroad, at this time he had been practicing Xingyi Boxing for two months, and what he was looking forward to was the official establishment of the crew. The end of October is the news of the start-up. At this time. Shao Yingying finally returned to his position, and this battle is about to be decided.

In the past two months, Huang Zhizhong's "Home Cooking" began to explode a miracle on the small screen, after the card of tragedy and not tragedy was played, the audience's hearts were quickly captured, Huang Zhizhong helped his wife carry a family, and the image of a real man who worked hard and had to bear his sister-in-law became a beautiful talk. Huayi once again began to lead the trend on the small screen.

Another piece of good news is that Jiang Wen is back, and Jiang Wen Studio's "The Sun Also Rises" is finally ready to shoot again. The next scenes will be filmed within a month and a half.

Wang Zhongjun took the opportunity to hype the news of Jiang Wen's return and Huayi's main god's return, and for a while, the news of "The City Full of Golden Armor" and "Jiang Wen's Return" formed a bipolar situation.

The news has been hyped for more than a month, and in November, quietly approaching, "The Grandmaster" finally started filming and entered filming.

Interestingly, at the press conference for the launch of "The Grandmaster", Shao Yingying remembered the story about the start of this movie, if it were according to history, the start of this movie should have been delayed again and again, and the audience who dragged it out in the end was impatient, and gave "The Grandmaster" a negative evaluation of "The Missing Generation". The main reason for this is that Wang Jiawei is too slow to make movies, and if you want to watch his movies, you have to have the heart to live, otherwise you can intermittently let this product drag you to death.

At the launching ceremony of "The Grandmaster", Liang Chaowei, Wang Jiawei, Zhang Ziyi, Shao Yingying, Song Hye Kyo, Zhang Zhen were all present, and even a person who surprised Shao Yingying came, Zhao Benshan.

Shao Yingying never persuaded Zhao Jiaban to be drawn into the camp of "The Grandmaster", but when Wang Jiawei went to the Northeast to watch the filming scene after returning to China, he still pulled Zhao Jiaban in, but this time it was determined that it was not Zhao Benshan and Xiao Shenyang who appeared in the movie, but Zhao Benshan and Liu Xiaoguang.

At the opening ceremony, the media asked questions to the entire crew of "The Grandmaster", and the funniest question was: "Director Wang, how many years are you going to shoot this movie?" ”

Shao Yingying and Zhao Benshan sat on the rostrum with their heads bowed and laughed sullenly, and Wang Jiawei also smiled: "It won't take so long this time, and we should be able to meet everyone around Christmas." ”

Zhao Benshan twisted his head at this time and avoided the microphone and said to Shao Yingying: "Xiao Shao, who am I playing?" ”

"Uncle Zhao, why did you come here without even knowing who was playing?" Shao Yingying didn't expect that what happened in history would reappear again.

Zhao Benshan secretly pointed his finger at Wang Jiawei and said: "Director Wang went to me, and one by one, the 'big brother' called for me to make a show, and said that the funds were tight...... What can I say? ”

"I owe you a personal favor." Shao Yingying didn't expect Wang Jiawei to not even change his moves, so he tied Zhao Benshan to the chariot.

At this time, the media began to attack Shao Yingying, and directly asked at the press conference: "Boss Shao, do you think this drama can beat "The City is Full of Golden Armor"? ”

Shao Yingying quickly stopped whispering with Zhao Benshan, and said with the sleek words he had cultivated for many years in the entertainment industry: "Men, it is taboo to show off externally." ”

The reporter continued to ask: "Boss Shao, will your avoidance of questions affect the confidence of other employees of Huayi?" ”

Shao Yingying continued to respond: "Sometimes a boss has to be hard to hold on. ”

The reporter saw that Shao Yingying definitely did not create a rumor, so he simply went around in a circle first: "Huayi recently sent Xu Jinglei and Ning Hao abroad for further study one after another, is it to copy the foreign model to create our own blockbuster?" ”

This time, Shao Yingying said seriously: "For the time being, Huayi has no idea of creating a bigger film than "The Grandmaster", and the steps have to be taken little by little, this question is a bit unrealistic. As for sending Ning Hao and Lao Xu abroad, it is Hua Yi who is paving the way for his own director echelon, we can't just rely on Wei Jiahui and Jiang Wen, we have to be able to train successors. ”

The reporter sat down unwillingly, he could not occupy the question time for a long time. When another reporter stood up, the two looked at each other, and the reporter continued to ask: "The contradiction between Hua Yi and Xin Picture has caused the confrontation between the two companies in the box office market, Boss Shao, as far as you are concerned, can you two ease the relationship?" ”

"That's a good question, I also hope that Huayi can become a company that is both good at attacking and making it feel pleasant, so that no matter who Huayi fights with, it will not offend people, this is our ideal, unfortunately, it has not been realized, but ...... As you said, we are at war, but this war is not about two companies scolding each other, and the news attention created by our friction is bound to be reflected at the box office, so although we are opposite, when there are movies released at the same time, this friction will make both sides feel happy, which is the necessity of gossip in this circle. ”

"Boss Shao, if "The Grandmaster" successfully defeats "The City Full of Golden Armor", will it create its own brand on the big screen in the future, just like the small screen to create its own boutique brand?"

Shao Yingying smiled bitterly: "Zhang Yimou is not an easy opponent to defeat, I can only say that I hope so." In addition, I have reviewed myself, I know my shortcomings, and I hope that after the victory, I can humbly shrink myself. ”

The reporter sat down again.

Zhao Benshan didn't know what was wrong, and whispered one by one to help Shao Yingying summarize what he had just said: "Never show off; At the critical moment, it can stand up hard; training successors; Good at attacking and making it pleasant, friction will make both parties feel happy; Humilly shrinking oneself after victory......"

Suddenly, Zhao Benshan lowered his head, a pair of eyes stared at his crotch in amazement, and the moment he raised his head, he fell into the surprised expression of opening his mouth in the sketch of the Spring Festival Gala......

Rumble!

The audience was instantly happy!! (To be continued......)
