Chapter 823: Big Movie!
Chapter 823
"Ozawa, say it quickly? What movie? β
"Yes, Xiao Ze, you can't be heavy and light on friends, give Xiaoice a movie and don't give it to us."
"But, Ozawa, how can you only think of a movie? Can't you think about a few more? β
β¦β¦
Looking at these entertainment bigwigs, it seems to be lustful at this time. Like a wolf or a woman, Lin Chen was also drunk, endured the discomfort, and said with a wry smile: "You think I'm a machine, I just came up with this part, anyway, there is only this one, you can use it if you like it, if you don't like it, forget it." β
"Don't, I don't like it, Ozawa, tell me quickly, what kind of movie is it?"
Xu Fan waved his hand again and again and asked.
Several other people stared at Zhao Ze tightly, even Fan Xiaoice showed a hint of interest, this Zhao Ze just gave himself a script, and in a blink of an eye, there was another movie, which is really admirable.
Thinking like this, Fan Xiaoice's eyes were also more and more green light, and even calculating something, but the drunk Zhao Ze did not find it, but looked at everyone and said: "Actually, this movie, there was an outline before, originally wanted this script to be given to Fan Ye, but it has already given her another, and this scale is also larger." β
"Khan, Ozawa, don't sell it, what kind of movie is it, what kind of theme? I'm a little itchy about it. β
Feng Xiaogang couldn't sit still at this time, and said directly and loudly.
"Hehe, Director Feng, don't worry, this movie. Actually, it's simple. Mainly about the film, the film tells the story of Hong Kong Central on October 15, 1906. The story of a group of revolutionary righteous men from all over the world, merchants, beggars, coachmen, students, gamblers, etc., fought bloodily to protect Sun Yat-sen under the double pressure of the Qing government and the British government. β
Zhao Ze said with a smile.
"Huh? Ozawa, can you be specific? β
Other entertainment bigwigs don't care about the script, but Feng Xiaogang is different, his eyes lit up at this time. Continue to ask.
"Well, in 1905, in the central of Xiangjiang, the revolutionary aspirants were assassinated, and at this time, Sun Yat-sen was about to arrive in Xiangjiang, and the Qing government sent the general Yan Xiaoguo to kill him, he bribed the gambler Shen Chongyang as a secret agent, at this time, it coincided with the celebration of Li Chongyang, the son of businessman Li Yutang. And Shen Chongyang saw that his ex-wife Yueru and his young daughter had become other people's families, so he left gloomily.
To protect the grandson. Chen Shaobai, president of "Huaxia Daily", invited the owner of the drama troupe to take action, causing him to be killed, and his daughter Fang Hong survived. Chen Shaobai was captured, met with Yan Xiaoguo, and the teacher and student broke up.
β¦β¦
The plot that Zhao Ze said is another movie in the other world "October Siege", this movie, in the other world" is directed by Chen Desen, produced by Chen Kexin, Donnie Yen, Nicholas Tse, Wang Xueqi, Liang Jiahui, Li Yuchun, Fan Bingbing, Liming, etc.
Moreover, the reputation of this movie is also huge, it is precisely because of this that Zhao Ze actually occasionally thought about it before, but he didn't dig too deep, if he hadn't drunk some wine today, I'm afraid he wouldn't have remembered it.
Listening to Zhao Ze's narration, the others did not have any reaction, but Feng Xiaogang had already clapped his hands and made friends, you must know that the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China was an era of heroes, and the capable people who sacrificed their lives to go to the country are innumerable, and here, about the righteousness of chivalry, it is even more heartfelt.
"Ozawa, this movie, are you going to shoot it?"
Feng Xiaogang was a little embarrassed when he said this, after all, he had criticized "Love Call Transfer" before, but now he wants to film again, is this too undisciplined?
But who is Feng Xiaogang? How can it be Feng Cannon, he doesn't care about these things, what he thinks is that such a rare script, if he doesn't shoot, he will probably regret it.
"Hehe, Director Feng, I don't know how to shoot, and, I think, among the Huaxia directors, I am afraid that you are the only one who can shoot this movie."
Zhao Ze looked at Feng Xiaogang's appearance and was a little funny, so he said with a little seriousness.
"Really?"
Feng Xiaogang stood up abruptly and said in a lost voice.
At this time, everyone at the entire cocktail party looked here, obviously a little shocked, Feng Dacang, who has always dared to say and act, and even President Xu Yi didn't pay attention to it, would be so out of shape.
"Khan, Director Feng, it's true, but about the actors in this play, you have to listen to me."
Zhao Ze sweated and hurriedly said.
"Haha, no problem, no problem, in this movie, the actor has the final say, as long as you can let me shoot, your Xiao Ze's vision is stronger than mine."
Feng Xiaogang waved his hand again and again, and said very magnificently.
Okay, the director has chosen, in addition, actor Zhao Ze has also counted in his heart, and all the bigwigs sitting here are also going to act, this one says that it will cost tens of millions, which one says it will cost tens of millions, and they are all wealth boys.
In the other world, the total investment of "October Siege" is said to be almost 180 million, and the cost of the crew alone is 1 million, among them, Zhang Hanyu's appearance is specially made by Hollywood special effects.
However, there are actually some gaps in it, so what Zhao Ze has to do at this time is to change all these things, and even three points higher than the investment in another time and space.
200 million!
Looking at the big guys, Zhao Ze said the cost lightly at this time, and this figure made others gasp, if the investment cost of 200 million yuan, then the box office must reach at least 530 million to be able to return to the cost.
However, for such a box office, it may be quite difficult for most filmmakers, but for Zhao Ze, there is no problem with this Nima at all, don't forget jì, the box office of "Love Call Transfer 2" has reached more than 20 billion.
Thinking of this, these guys, one by one, can contribute!
Even, they didn't ask who the actor was!
The cocktail party, to put it bluntly, is a celebration party about "Love Call Transfer". Two films. No matter how big or low. At the same time, such achievements have been achieved, so all the main creators have also appeared.
About half of the party, at this time, the host also appeared on the stage and made a simple opening remark!
Then, let Xu Zheng come to the stage and say a few words, which was naturally humorous. At the same time, the statement should follow Zhao Ze's pace!
As for the time of Huang Bo, the director, Huang Bo has always been humorous in language and strong in adaptability, but at this time, he has become quite restrained in his speech.
"Today, the box office of "Love Call Transfer 2" has exceeded the 2 billion mark. As my first film, I was able to achieve such a terrifying result. In fact, I know in my heart that this really has nothing to do with me, all of it is because of Zhao Ze's credit, here, I want to really thank him.
He dared to be so relieved and boldly asked me to be the director, and the affairs in the play were so assured, I thank you, thank you.
Of course, I also want to show my loyalty here, if Mr. Zhao still has a movie to shoot in the future, even if it is a small supporting role, I am willing to take on it. β
Seeing Huang Bo's appearance, Zhao Ze chuckled, Huang Bo has the innate gratitude of Dongshan people, so Zhao Ze is also very useful for his words.
Then it was relaxed, there were a few unknown singers, sang a few songs, and then, everyone also began to dance, and when it was almost over, Zhao Ze and others were also interviewed by the media.
"Zhao Ze, hello, now that "Love Call Transfer 2" is also a big success, I don't know, next, are you ready to continue filming comedy?"
"Zhao Ze, hello, I would like to ask, will your film center focus on comedy this year?"
"Zhao Ze, hello ......"
β¦β¦
The discussion of many media, or the discussion of many media, is focused on whether Zhao Ze will shoot movies this year, and whether the movies he will shoot will always take the route of comedy.
"Hehe, I can ask you questions now, about comedy can be said to be the hope of our Chinese going abroad, and our Chinese comedy, whether it is the nonsense of Xiangjiang Xingye, or the Feng's humor of Director Feng, and now the combination of Xu Zheng and Huang Bo and others, these are our pride and our wealth.
However, this does not mean that as long as you shoot a comedy, as long as you stick to the gourd to spend a scoop, you can get everyone's unanimous approval, therefore, I hope everyone can still look at Chinese comedy movies rationally. β
Zhao Ze looked at many media and once again said his original intention.
As a result, Zhao Ze's words once again caused an uproar among the media, because they remembered that Zhao Ze had said before that they didn't want everyone to shoot or follow the trend of "Love Call Transfer"!
"Zhao Ze, hello, I'm a reporter from Langhua Entertainment, I want to ask, do you mean that subconsciously, do you think that the comedy movie "Love Call Transfer" that everyone has recently filmed will fail?"
The reporter of Langhua Entertainment asked a pointed question.
"That's right!"
Zhao Ze did not evade it at all, but said seriously: "I not only think that they will fail at the box office, but I think that this is an irresponsible view for them, filmmakers, and even the audience.
What I've always said is that I hope we will be strong in Huayu, and I've been doing this, but I don't want to, or rather, I don't want to see it, but we have always been called copycats, if we make movies in such batches, what is the difference between them and the original Xiangjiang movies? β
Whether it is many people in the entertainment industry or reporters present, they did not expect that Zhao Ze would be so straightforward and not give face, as the so-called, cutting off people's wealth is like killing parents, it can be said that Zhao Ze's words will inevitably cause an uproar when they are broadcast by reporters.
"So, Mr. Zhao, the second question, since you said that you don't want to follow the trend of comedy, what kind of movie are you going to shoot? In the second half of this year, what kind of path will Pinxuan Entertainment take? β
This matter has been noted down by an entertainment reporter, and at the same time, another reporter asked about another thing.
"Hehe, this should be a reporter from Yanjing Entertainment, you don't have to dig a hole for me, am I going to say that I want to shoot a comedy. You'll be writing right away. Zhao Ze is really afraid that others will make money. Little girl, how old you are, that's not good. β
Zhao Ze's words of laughter also caused the little girl to be shy, like Zhao Ze, dare to tune. Drama reporters, there really isn't.
"All right, little girl. I'm joking with you, well, in fact, my next movie has just been decided, and it will be directed by Feng Xiaogang, and at the same time, the investment is expected to be 200 million! β
Zhao Ze said with a smile: "In addition, this time it is not a comedy, but mainly a story about the Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China." Anyway, let's talk about it first. Later, everyone can follow the news at any time. β
"So, what's the name?"
"October Siege!"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
At the celebration of "Love Call Transfer", Zhao Ze severely reprimanded the comedy filmmakers who are following today, saying that if this continues, it will ruin the Chinese film market, and at the same time, Zhao Ze said that the next film will no longer shoot comedy, but shoot the film "October Siege" in the early Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China
"Zhao Ze's new movie will be named "October Siege", and the actors of this movie are all temporarily kept secret, but the director is directed by Feng Xiaogang, and the total investment of the film will be 200 million, which should be Zhao Ze's biggest investment in a movie recently."
β¦β¦
As soon as the celebration of "Love Call Transfer" ended, the media began to report, and at this time, Li Ming, who was far away in Xiangjiang, looked at the reports on the Internet and shook his head slightly.
Zhao Ze's concert is now better, at the beginning, Zhao Ze promised that he would give himself a chance, but after so long, he didn't even have a letter, although Li Ming was a little angry, but Zhao Ze is now famous, what can he do?
"What is "October Siege"?"
After watching this movie, Li Ming was also a little puzzled, but he didn't think that he would have his own share, you know, if he really had himself, Zhao Ze would have contacted him a long time ago, but at this time, Li Ming's phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Hehe, Li Ming, I haven't seen you for a long time, have you been on a tight schedule lately?"
"Ah, Mr. Zhao, I don't have a tight schedule, I have time."
"Okay, I have a role here, I don't know if it's what you like, if you have time, come to Yanjing, let's meet and talk."
The moment he hung up the phone, Li Ming was excited, at this time, he couldn't care about anything else, and he couldn't wait to fly directly to Yanjing.
At the same time, Guo Fucheng also received a call from Zhao Ze!
Moreover, several other celebrities also went out one after another and gathered in Yanjing!
It can be said that at this time, almost everyone wants to know what their role will be.
And after the celebration party, Zhao Ze told Fan Xiaoice that he also has a role, and if this role is played well, he may win an award.
This made Fan Xiaoice even more smiling, and even couldn't wait to promise Zhao Ze his body!
The next day, Li Ming and Guo Fucheng also arrived one after another, looking at the impatient appearance of the two heavenly kings, Zhao Ze also secretly shook his head and smiled!
Then he said to themβ
"This time, Li Ming, you play in the movie a rich kid called the original suave and suave, who fell into the streets due to the double blow of family changes and emotional frustration, begging along the streets all day long, and Liu Yubai who was accompanied by big smoke.
Moreover, you will be almost all action this time, so you have to be prepared to endure hardships. β
Li Ming looked carefully at the script, about the introduction of the person he played-
Liu Yubai, who was originally a noble son, lost all his family property because he fell in love with a woman he shouldn't love, and became a beggar living on the street. And it was at that time that Li Yutang acquired Liu Yubai's assets at a low price and became a wealthy businessman. For many years, Li Yutang has always felt ashamed of Liu Yubai, so every time he passes by the place where he begs, he will always give him a piece of the ocean.
On the eve of the operation, Li Yutang found Liu Yubai, hoping that he could participate in the team to protect Sun Yat-sen.
Looking at the introduction of himself, Li Ming also felt a trace of excitement, this is because the transformation of himself in the movie is a great test of his strength.
When Li Ming was looking at the script, Zhao Ze also looked at Guo Fucheng, who was looking forward to it, in this time and space, there was no real bullet. And because Guo Fucheng actually knows action scenes. So. He was ready to let Guo Fucheng shoot action scenes.
However, Zhao Ze was still a little worried about Guo Fucheng's body.
Therefore, Zhao Ze said: "Ah Cheng, this time, you are playing a gambler, and Shen Chongyang, who is strong in martial arts and loves to gamble. Port Police.
Although you often lose your money cleanly, your heart is good. Because of greed for small profits, he reported to the killer and indirectly killed Fang Tian, the troupe owner who was originally going to participate in the bodyguard work, and felt very guilty.
On the eve of the revolution, his ex-wife Yueru came to her - now, she has become Li Yutang's fourth aunt, Yueru told him that Li Yutang's "daughter" was actually his own and had been carefully cared for by the Li family for many years. Ruyue asked him for the sake of his daughter's life. Protect Li Yutang and protect the "revolutionary party". β
Speaking of which. Zhao Ze also pondered for a moment and said: "It can be said that your role is also the most important scene, and there are a lot of scenes, I am only worried about whether you can withstand it now." β
Who knew that Zhao Ze's worries were completely superfluous, but Guo Fucheng showed an excited look on his face, and laughed: "Aze, you also underestimate me too much, don't worry, I will study the scene well." β
Seeing that the two heavenly kings were so excited, Lin Chen didn't say much anymore, anyway, he said everything he should have said, and he was also looking forward to the two of them.
As for the time to promote, the two kings will co-star, which is also a good gimmick!
As for the role of the coachman Ah Si in the play, Zhao Ze is still ready to let Chen Tingfeng star in the role, this is really because there is nothing more suitable than the role of Chen Tingfeng, and Chen Tingfeng's madness in filming "October Siege" at the beginning made Zhao Ze admire it even more.
The coachman Ah Si, in the movie, is an orphan, an orphan, who was adopted by the wealthy businessman Li Yutang since he was a child, and became Li Yutang's exclusive coachman when he was a teenager. Ah Si is pure by nature, ignorant of the world, his life philosophy is: happiness is the most important, and the happiness of the master and the young master is more important than his own happiness.
Ah Si's sky is very small, except for laughing and scolding with the coachman on the street, he is learning to read and write with the young master Li Chongguang. But three years ago, the appearance of Ah Chun, the little sister of the photo studio, gave Ah Si's life a new expectation, he longed for love, and longed to see Ah Chun every day.
On October 10, 1905, Chen Shaobai received the news that Sun Yat-sen was about to arrive in Hong Kong, and in order to ensure the safety of Mr. Sun, Chen Shaobai found Li Yutang, hoping that he could join the revolution. In this way, Li Yutang unconsciously became the organizer of the revolution, and Ah Si took the initiative to ask the master to participate in the action in order to "make the master and the young master happy", and became one of the bodyguards of Sun Yat-sen's death squad, but Ah Si didn't know any martial arts, let alone what the revolution was, he only knew that he wanted to protect the safety of the master and the young master.
On the eve of the revolution, the simple Ah Si mentioned his heart to the master, "Can you help me go to Ah Chun's family to propose marriage?" Ah Si got his wish, how did he think that this would be the happiest day of his life.
Although Ah Si is so far from "revolution" and "democracy", his innocence and sincerity have become the most touching stroke in the whole film.
This is the role of the coachman Ah Si in the biography of the character at that time, and the behind-the-scenes footage, Ah Si played by Chen Tingfeng, is extremely sincere, it can be said that this is also the reason why Zhao Ze is willing to choose him.
"Don't worry, Zhao Ze, I will definitely perform well."
Chen Tingfeng was not ready to ask for a salary, but asked: "What, Mr. Zhao, my wedding in October, which song of mine, can you?" β
"Khan !!"
Zhao Ze slapped his head suddenly, he didn't expect that he would forget about this matter.
"Don't worry, I already have a plan."
However, Zhao Ze still said happily.
On the other hand, several other roles have also been decided one after another, as for the final, Fang Hong's role, Zhao Ze thought about it, let's find Li Yuchun!
Thinking that Li Yuchun also has the intention to develop on the screen recently, Zhao Ze also threw an olive branch!
When Li Yuchun, who was preparing for the concert, received a call from Zhao Ze, especially when she heard about the many big names filming this time, the whole person was stunned, and even her agent was a little stunned.
"Chunchun, are you sure you don't know Zhao Ze?"
After hanging up, the agent asked uncertainly.
"Sister, if I really know Zhao Ze, we still use to choose movies all the time, and no one wants to use us?"
Li Yuchun said with a smile and a smile.
"Okay, anyway, this time, it's your chance, and, don't worry about this concert for the time being, the movie is important."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
In this way, after all the 15 important characters in the movie were prepared, Zhao Ze and Feng Xiaogang also discussed and prepared to hold a press conference on August 20.
On August 18th, Lieshou finally told Zhao Ze that the singularity essay will start tomorrow, and I hope Zhao Ze can prepare.
Call!
Zhao Ze breathed a long sigh of relief, new book! It's finally time to begin. (To be continued......)
