Chapter 509: "Chainsaw" VS "Texas"
"This Chinese director, I've heard of it, is also a genius director in Huaxia, but this Chinese director can be said to be quite fond of shows, and this time, could it be that this Chinese man thinks that he is deliberately putting on a show by relying on such a means as not cutting a knife, but he can't challenge the authority of the Film Association and gain attention?"
"Coward? We are the birthplace of horror stories, however, this Chinese director openly declared that this is not for children, and besides, don't watch cowards, don't watch cowards, please don't watch cowards, it seems that this Chinese director has good confidence in his movies! ”
""Chainsaw" is currently bloodier than "Texas Chainsaw Massacre", "Texas" is rated R, however, "Chainsaw" is NC-17 rating, from this point of view, "Chainsaw" seems to be slightly higher, but, as a movie accused of plagiarism by the glamorous era, a Texas idea that kills people with chainsaws is obviously plagiarized, such a movie, just relying on such a thoroughness, such a deliberate absorption of fire points to attract attention, it is difficult to get the box office."
I have to say that Sahaya officially published Zhao Ze's words, but instead of achieving the corresponding effect, they were criticized by many media after disseminating them.
However, in the United States, it is destined to be a market for horror movies, and many horror movie directors are not ordinary brain-dead or crowded, and some directors have given extremely high criticism to Zhao Ze, who does not cut the knife or even does not hesitate to damage the box office.
"Horror movies are designed to give you the creeps. Lots of excellent horror movies. All the time. They were all emasculated by the restricted level, in order to have more audiences and box office income, they turned the original good movies into movies that they didn't know, as Zhao Ze said, movies have become watched by cowards. In my opinion, movies are not edited, they are classified, and they are not only responsible for the film, but also for the audience. ”
Huang Yiyu, a Chinese director who is famous for "The Grim Reaper", is so supportive, probably because he is from the same Chinese, or because he has the same idea as a horror movie, and he gave a very high evaluation of Zhao Ze's uncut.
A "Death Comes" was an unprecedented success. Huang Yiyu, who is almost an honorary hand, can be said to be famous today. His remarks have also aroused controversy among many people.
In addition, several other directors in the United States have also spoken out, even if they are not used to this Huaxia grandma, or they do not have much expectations for this "Chainsaw", but they agree with Zhao Ze's rhetoric.
What really surprised Zhao Ze was the words of another Chinese director-
"Texas Chainsaw Massacre" is a remake of the movie in 1974, due to the impact of Texas murders, therefore, the horror movie with the theme of chainsaw killing, since that movie, for decades, the subject matter of shooting, is countless, and Huaxia with chainsaw killing, in my opinion, has not much to do with plagiarism, and even, if I don't shoot other movies this year, maybe I also want to conceive a "chainsaw-like" horror movie.
I watched the bloody trailer for "Saw", and although I didn't know much about it, I still firmly believe that this movie should be a different horror movie from previous categories, and may even refresh the horror theme. ”
James. Wen's remarks on social networks made a group of people who had some criticism of "Chainsaw" before, but began to ponder, and even many people watched the trailer again.
"I didn't expect him to be there!"
Zhao Ze saw this name and shook his head a little, because "Death is Coming" has already appeared, Zhao Ze is not too surprised, Huang Yiyu's voice is supportive, he is just a little stunned, but the Chinese director in front of him makes Zhao Ze feel weird.
James. Wen, even in the other world, I'm afraid, many people are not very familiar with him, but if you talk about the director of "Chainsaw", I'm afraid, many people will suddenly realize that the filming of such a heavy "Chainsaw" will come from the hands of this Chinese director.
Zhao Ze searched for it, and at this time, James. Wen's fame is no worse than that of the other world, although he did not become famous with "Chainsaw", but with a vampire theme and "Twilight" with horror and bloody elements.
Look, James. Wen said that he also had to conceive a 'chainsaw-theme' movie, and Zhao Ze was even more lucky, fortunately "Chainsaw" was filmed first, otherwise, when the time comes, it will be a lot of fun.
The strong support of several Chinese directors, coupled with the recognition of other famous Hollywood directors, has made many people have a new understanding and new feeling of 'horror movies' for a while.
"I said that ordinary horror movies, how do they look, they are not afraid at all, it turns out that the root is here, Nima, please don't edit horror movies in the future."
"This Chinese man is quite interesting, I really want to watch "Saw Horror", haha, I'm not a coward."
"Who's the coward? See you at the cinema! ”
Although this movie was criticized and ridiculed by some people at the beginning, and even had a bad reputation for plagiarism, with Sahaya's public relations and Zhao Ze's remarks, many people only said one word when they mentioned this play.
"Hey, not a coward, just come with me to the movies!"
Sahaya's blockbuster publicity has also achieved great results, because "Chainsaw" and "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" have now formed a similar bundle of publicity, therefore, on July 28, the screening of "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" also aroused many people to watch.
Recently, several blockbusters released in North America, such as "The Incredibles", "Crash", "Redemption" and several other films, have also dazzled North American audiences, and today, one of the two horror movies with a "chainsaw theme" that has attracted everyone's attention, "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" is about to be released!
Glamorous Times Company Meeting Room!
Kobritt looked at everyone present, but there was a smile on his slightly old face: "Wade, let's talk about it!" ”
"Yes, last time, the "Fantasy Journey to the West" we invested in failed miserably, because of this Zhao Ze's Chinese, a parade, a publicity, so that our film was boycotted, thus, Sahaya Pictures relied on "Journey to the West" to earn word of mouth and attention, God may be watching Sahaya a little too much, therefore, this time, in Huaxia's words, called feng shui turns, one of our movies and them met again."
Wade nodded slightly, then explained.
"Wade, can you change your mistakes and get to the point, every time you make such a long speech, I can't help but beat you."
In the conference room, a middle-aged man said impatiently.
"Mark, sorry, my bad, well, it's actually tonight, our movie "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" is going to be released, and tomorrow night it's Sahaya's "Chainsaw", so guys, we're going to face Sahaya again."
Wade shrugged his shoulders slightly and spoke.
"Oh, damn it, that's just a Chinese director, we have a lot of investment in this movie, besides, how can Huaxia know how to make horror movies, this time, it's bound to defeat them."
"That's right, hehe, this time, Sahaya is going to pay a lot."
"Wade, you're not going to sue me, be careful with this movie, haha, are you kidding?"
In the conference room, listening to Wade's words, some people's eyes showed disdain, obviously, no matter how powerful the news and publicity were recently, they would not think that "Chainsaw" would be able to turn the world upside down.
"Ahem, ahem."
Cobblet coughed softly, and the room fell silent.
"Mark, if you're half as smart as your dead dad, then I don't have to worry about him."
Cobblet pointed at Mark and said lightly.
"Saw movie, who of you actually watched his trailer? Smith is not a fool, since he can promote it so hard, this movie must have what he thinks is desirable. ”
Cobblet's words made everyone in the conference room quiet, and at this time, his words can be regarded as ending the meeting: "I came to you, not to discuss with you, Wade, after watching the movie today, continue to invest money, be sure to make the reputation of this movie better, tomorrow, on the front pages of major news, I want to see some reports about "Texas Chainsaw Massacre", therefore, "Chainsaw" Don't mention him again, the day after tomorrow, we will watch it again." ”
The boss spoke, and everyone began to get busy after the meeting, carrying out heavy publicity, so as to attract the audience to come and buy tickets, in major cinemas, there are already long queues, when queuing to buy tickets, the conference room of Sahaya Film and Television Group also began to discuss publicity and tomorrow's premiere.
"Zhao, tomorrow's premiere is scheduled for the 'Sahaya Grand Theater', this is the best one among my many theaters, I have invited countless friends and media, and when the time comes, maybe you will have an interview!"
Smith said to Zhao Ze, and at the same time, there was a bright light in his eyes: "The second set of propaganda plans, we can carry it out!" ”
"Haha, that's it, Smith, you need to be prepared for the next complaint!"
Zhao Ze looked at Smith and teased. (To be continued......)
