Chapter 288: The Director Joins
"Made, "No Man's Land" has not passed the review??? Ning Hao's face was quite ugly.
worked hard to shoot a movie, and even in order to shoot this movie, he and the actors of the crew filmed in such a poor environment for several months, and it was not as convenient as food, clothing, housing and transportation.
It can be said that for this movie, Ning Hao and they really worked hard.
It's just that what Ning Hao didn't expect was that "No Man's Land" failed to pass the trial!
"What did you say, Ning Dao? "No Man's Land"? Haven't been reviewed? This, how is this possible? Director Ning, you're not kidding, are you?" Zhang Yi looked confused, and then couldn't help but ask.
Zhang Yi's mood at this time is really, there is no way to describe it.
"No Man's Land" is the first film Zhang Yi made after joining Zhang Yuxuan's studio, and it is also the first film he participated in in his life, and he is still the protagonist. He also wants to see himself on the big screen this year. Now Ning Hao told him that his first movie "No Man's Land" did not pass the trial!
!
Zhang Yuxuan listened to Ning Hao's news, but his expression was a little subtle.
Before the crossing, Ning Hao's "No Man's Land" had not passed the review, so that after three years of filming, the movie had a chance to be released. Now, with the interference of him, a traverser, Ning Hao's "No Man's Land" still failed to pass the trial.
In fact, for "No Man's Land", Zhang Yuxuan also knew that this movie was stuck when it was released, and it was released again three years later, Zhang Yuxuan didn't know much about the specific situation.
So what is the situation, Zhang Yuxuan is also a little confused.
"Is it because of the plot? None of the characters in "No Man's Land" are good people?" Zhang Yuxuan asked.
"Who said that there are no good people in "No Man's Land", the policeman played by Wu Jing is a good person. I was afraid that the movie would not pass the trial, so I set the police as a good person and a good cop." Ning Hao explained.
"No matter what you say, No Man's Land has not been reviewed! What did the radio and television say over there? How do you want to change it?" Zhang Yuxuan asked.
"If only I could change it." Ning Hao said with a depressed face, or this is what Ning Hao really feels depressed about: ""No Man's Land" can't be changed, and it's useless to change it, unless it is all reversed and remade, and all the characters in it are replaced by good people, otherwise, it is impossible for this movie to pass the review at all."
Hearing Ning Hao say this, Zhang Yuxuan knew that "No Man's Land" really couldn't pass the review.
"Director Ning, what's going on? Why is this happening? What about the movie?" Zhang Yi couldn't help but ask again and again.
"What else? We're unlucky, who let not long ago, there was a major accident on the side where we were filming. So Radio and Television thinks that our movie is not suitable for broadcast now." Ning Hao's face was depressed.
"A major accident in the place where the movie was filmed?" Zhang Yi looked confused, he didn't pay much attention to this kind of thing, so he wasn't very familiar with what the situation was.
"That's the case......" Ning Hao explained the matter.
After listening to Ning Hao's words, Zhang Yuxuan and Zhang Yi were also speechless, when it comes to things like independence, everything has to give way.
In this case, no, "No Man's Land" just can't be released, at least in a short period of time.
The movie "No Man's Land", unless it is released before July, after July, will not be allowed at all.
"So, our movie, it's over?" Zhang Yi is still very unwilling, he feels that he is too unlucky, his first movie. And it's still a movie for the leading actor, but now it's gone.
"It's not over, just wait, when this matter passes, when things completely stop, then our movie can be re-released." Ning Hao explained.
"When, then?"
"If there are no surprises in the future, it will be three or four years at most, and everyone will almost forget about it, and then the movie will be released." Ning Hao explained.
"......" Zhang
Yi didn't know whether he should be happy or unhappy at this time.
Say happy, my first movie can't be released at the moment. Let's say I'm not happy, at least wait for another three or four years for it to be released, and it won't be buried directly.
But the movie he is making now will have to wait until three or four years later to be released, so you can imagine how Zhang Yi feels.
[In view of the general environment,
"Alas!" Zhang Yi couldn't help but sigh heavily.
"It's okay Zhang Yi, don't we have another movie "Great Wish" behind us, in which you are also the protagonist. At the end of the year, the movie will still be released. Don't worry." Zhang Yuxuan knew Zhang Yi's mood and comforted.
"Thank you, boss." Zhang Yi tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"Forget it, don't mention it. By the way, what about Wu Jing, another artist in your studio? Why didn't you see him?" Ning Hao diverted the topic and said.
"Wu Jing, he's gone to the army." Zhang Yuxuan said.
"Huh? Went to the army? What is he doing in the army?" Ning Hao originally just diverted the topic, but now when he heard Zhang Yuxuan say this, he was a little curious.
"I got a script for Wu Jing before, and Wu Jing felt that if she wanted to shoot that script well, she had to go to the army for training for a period of time and experience what it was like to be a soldier, so she went to the army for training." Zhang Yuxuan explained.
"What kind of script? He even let Wu Jing go to the army for training?" Ning Hao asked curiously.
""Wolf Warrior", writing the script of special forces. In order to be able to play the special forces well, he went to the army, and he still went to the kind of special combat team."
"Good guys, special forces? Can Wu Jing stand him?"
"It should be bearable, after all, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his foundation is much stronger than ordinary people."
"Tut-tut, Wu Jing is not bad, at least the attitude is really okay, special forces, tsk. Let me see the script, "Wolf Warrior", right?" Ning Hao was very curious about this script that required actors to go to special combat team training.
Hearing that Ning Hao wanted to read the script, Zhang Yuxuan didn't hide it, and took out the script directly.
After all, on the one hand, the script has been registered a long time ago, and he is not afraid of leakage, and on the other hand, Zhang Yuxuan also believes in Ning Hao's personality.
Ning Hao read the script, Zhang Yi was also curious, tilting his head to read the script. Looking at it, Zhang Yi's face was about to stick to Ning Hao's face.
"Alas, keep a little distance, keep a little distance, two big men, don't stick so close. If someone else sees it, they think we have something." Ning Hao finished reading a page of the script, and when he turned the page, he suddenly noticed that Zhang Yi's face was almost on his face, and he was startled, and hurriedly pushed Zhang Yi's face away.
"Well, I'm not reading the script."
"You're not going to wait until you read the script? I've read this page, you can read this first."
"Okay."
When the two of them finished reading the script, Ning Hao went through the setting of the script, as well as the shooting shots and other things in his mind, and then shook his head: "It's not the type I'm good at. Looks like I'm not going to be able to be the director of this play."
"I don't plan to let you be the director of this play, I plan to direct and act for Wu Jing." Zhang Yuxuan said.
"Huh? You let Wu Jing direct and act herself? You are crazy? Or do you have too much money?" Ning Hao couldn't help but say.
"I can't say that, Wu Jing still has the talent to be a director."
"Talented? I watched "Wolf Teeth" that he was a director before, and that's it, talent, I really haven't seen it." Ning Hao pouted.
"People always have to have a first time, and it's not that they won't improve in the future. Wu Jing After filming "Wolf Teeth", he also learned a lot of knowledge about being a director, and even went to the school's directing department to audit, and his strength has improved a lot, and when the time comes, he is looking for two powerful assistant directors, and it is no problem to be a director and make movies." Zhang Yuxuan said.
"Okay, you can do it, anyway, the script is yours, and the investment is yours. You spend your own money, and if you are willing to let Wu Jing be the director, you can do it.
Ning Hao shook his head, still not optimistic about Wu Jing as a director.
Zhang Yi on the side, listening to the conversation between Zhang Yuxuan and Ning Hao, a trace of envy flashed in his little eyes.
Zhang Yi was really envious, he didn't expect that his boss Zhang Yuxuan would be willing to support Wu Jing as a director and direct and act in general movies.
Especially when you look at the script of "Wolf Warrior", which is both an airplane and a tank, the production cost will definitely not be low. The quality of the script is also quite good. Zhang Yuxuan was willing to spend this level of cost to support Wu Jing. This kind of boss is definitely rare, and it can even be said to be rare.
Of course, Zhang Yi's envy is just envy, because he never thought about being a director, he just wanted to film and be an actor himself. I don't want to be distracted to be a director.
But I never thought about being a director, but Zhang Yi still thinks the script of "Wolf Warrior" is very good.
"That, boss, can I play the movie "Wolf Warrior"?" Zhang Yi asked with a grin.
"You want to act?"
"I don't think the script of "Wolf Warrior" sounds good."
"Okay, you can act if you want. Anyway, you've been in the military before, so you're more suitable than other actors in the entertainment industry." Zhang Yuxuan responded directly.
"Thank you, thank you, boss, thank you, boss."
……
"Director Li, long time no see." Zhang Yuxuan smiled and greeted director Lee Hye-joo.
"It's been a long time. I think you have just entered the entertainment industry, in the blink of an eye, after a few years of hard work, you have become the top movie star in China, your growth rate is really too rare, no, it should be said that you are the only one." Li Huizhu smiled, and her tone was inevitably mixed with a little compliment, even if it was not Li Huizhu's intention, but in the entertainment industry, Zhang Yuxuan's development is better than her, and she can't help but subconsciously do it.
Lee Hye-joo is the director of the fourth TV series that Zhang Yuxuan participated in after his debut.
Zhang Yuxuan at the beginning was also a fledgling, and he had just made a name for himself in the entertainment industry.
Then when Li Huizhu directed "A Chinese Ghost Story", she began to constantly add drama to Zhang Yuxuan, which was originally just a supporting role for the male five, six or seven, and the hard-handed addition of the second male lead was added, and even in terms of character design, he completely surpassed the male Ning Caichen.
Although a large part of the reason why Li Huizhu added drama to Zhang Yuxuan was because of Zhang Yuxuan's popularity, it is undeniable that Li Huizhu's addition also made Zhang Yuxuan's Demon Lord Seven Nights a classic role.
Especially when adding dramas, many scenes and settings are added according to Zhang Yuxuan's ideas.
So speaking of which, Zhang Yuxuan can be regarded as owing director Li Huizhu a favor.
So Director Lee Hye-joo came to Zhang Yuxuan, and Zhang Yuxuan agreed to meet Director Lee Hye-joo out of this favor.
Director Zhang Yuxuan and Director Li Huizhu chatted casually, chatting about their experiences over the years, and talking about their respective achievements.
However, when Li Huizhu was chatting, she still had some praise for Zhang Yuxuan in her words.
"Director Li is looking for me this time?"
After chatting for a while, Zhang Yuxuan asked with a smile.
"Actually, this time, I came to find you Yuxuan, mainly because I wanted to recommend myself. I want to ask, Yuxuan, your studio, do you want to accept the director." Lee Hye-joo said with a smile.
"Director Li, do you want to join my studio?" Zhang Yuxuan looked at Li Huizhu with a little surprise.
The name Li Huizhu may not be known by many people. But Lee Hye-joo is indeed an excellent director, and many people know the works she has directed.
The director of Zhang Yuxuan's previous TV series "A Chinese Ghost Story" is Li Huizhu.
There are also "Fang Mu Detective", "I Have a Date with a Zombie Part 3", "New Chu Liuxiang", "Snow Flower Sword" and so on.
Even the future TV series such as "The Legend of Lu Zhen" and "Palace Lock Heart Jade" are also her works.
It can be said that Lee Hye-joo is really a very good TV
Drama director.
It's just that Zhang Yuxuan didn't expect that she would want to join her studio now.
"Yes, I left Ascot last year, and after a period of rest, it's like looking for a new job. And now, the development of the mainland is much better than that of Xiangjiang, at least for us in the entertainment industry, the environment in the mainland is too good. So I wanted to find a job in the mainland, and it just so happened that Yuxuan had set up your own personal studio, so I wanted to ask if your studio would like to hire a director." Lee Hye-joo said with a smile.
"Recruit, of course the director. It's just that there is no such good director as Director Li to join. Director Li is willing to join my studio, and of course I welcome him with both hands." Zhang Yuxuan is very warm to welcome Li Huizhu to join.
After Li Huizhu heard Zhang Yuxuan's words, she was also very happy.
The reason why Li Huizhu chose to join Zhang Yuxuan's personal studio was actually because she saw that Zhang Yuxuan's studio had just been established, and no director had joined yet, so she thought about joining in, so that she could get better resources.
Moreover, although Lee Hye-joo is a TV director, she also wants to go to the film industry.
In fact, as early as the 90s, Lee Hye-joo tried to break into the film industry.
It's just that as a female director, she doesn't have any backing, and it is not so easy to break into the film industry, and she ultimately fails.
And Zhang Yuxuan, he is very successful in making TV series, and he is even more successful in making movies.
And Zhang Yuxuan can also write the script by himself.
Just like Ning Hao, although Ning Hao himself has real talent and learning, Ning Hao's success is absolutely inseparable from the support of Zhang Yuxuan's script.
So Li Huizhu joined Zhang Yuxuan's studio, and there was also a reason why she wanted Zhang Yuxuan to write a movie script for her.
If Zhang Yuxuan can write a few excellent scripts for her, maybe she will become an excellent film director.
Zhang Yuxuan's studio needs a director, and Lee Hye-joo is also interested in joining. So the two sides hit it off, and Lee Hye-joo signed a contract and became the first director to join Zhang Yuxuan's studio.
It's just that after Li Huizhu joined, Zhang Yuxuan had to consider what resources to give Li Huizhu.
Let Lee Hye-joo make a movie?
This Zhang Yuxuan will indeed consider it. But Lee Hye-joo is better at filming TV series.
Some directors who can shoot excellent TV series, let him make movies, but he may not be able to shoot well.
is like Zhao Baogang, the earliest TV series "Desire" was really a sensation, and later there were "The Story of the Editorial Department", "Dead and Blind", "Like Fog, Like Rain and Like Wind" and "Struggle" and so on. It can be said that the TV series he filmed are definitely very good.
However, Zhao Baogang, an excellent TV series director, did not succeed in making movies, and finally went back to shoot TV series.
So Zhang Yuxuan is not sure if Li Huizhu can make a good movie.
So what Zhang Yuxuan wants Li Huizhu to shoot is still a TV series.
But if you make TV series - to be honest, before 2010, Zhang Yuxuan still watched TV series, but after that, he didn't watch TV series much.
The main reason is that the further back it goes, the more crooked the three views of the TV series become, and there is no way to watch it at all.
And TV series like "Langya Bang" and "Son-in-law" seem to be adapted. So Zhang Yuxuan couldn't help but think of some copyrights.
At this stage, in addition to several martial arts masters in Xiangjiang, other types of adaptations into TV series are still rare.
So, do you want to buy some copyrights and stock up on the next batch of IPs?
What "Langya Bang", "Son-in-law" and the like, or what "Zhu Xian" and "Ma Breaking the Sky" and the like.
Well, there are also the two parts "Tomb Robbery Notes" and "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", the copyrights of these two are even more popular.
Zhang Yuxuan was moved, so he began to arrange for people to buy the copyright of these film and television adaptations.
Speaking of which, this time
To buy copyrights, the price is really not expensive, and it should even be said that it is quite cheap, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of dollars can buy copyrights.
Think about future generations, excellent copyrights, millions or tens of millions or even higher, don't even think about it.
"Why do you suddenly want to buy the film and television rights of the Internet?" When Li Hao knew that Zhang Yuxuan wanted to buy the copyright of the Internet, he couldn't help but ask.
"Of course, it's a TV series and a movie."
"Is it appropriate? It's just the Internet, so it doesn't feel like it's appropriate, right?"
"It's suitable, it's not suitable. After you've seen what I've said, you'll know if it's right for you."
