Chapter 251: Three Guns
Lin Nan is stepping up the filming of the second half of "Thieves".
Outside, "Thorn Tomb" and "Fengyun 2" were released on the same day.
The box office of the two movies on the first day was more than 10 million.
Money is worried!
Because the next day is "Three Guns", there will be two imported blockbusters this month.
Zhang Yimou's movie is the object of attention of the whole circle.
On the day of its release, it easily won 21 million at the box office.
From the next day, the previous "Thorn Tomb" and "Fengyun 2" were directly reduced to foils.
Taking advantage of the break, many people in the crew went to watch "Three Guns".
After I came back, I didn't discuss much, but almost all of them posted congratulatory messages on Weibo.
The box office exceeded 100 million in 4 days!
This is the audience's respect for the chief director of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, and CCTV News has reported this briefing.
But as high as the expectations are, there are as many disappointments as possible.
A large number of complaints and bad reviews appeared on the Internet.
This time, quite a few media and viewers were on the same side.
"This movie is purely Zhao Jiaban's 'noisy' folk style, and I feel that the whole drama is completely out of Zhang Yimou's control."
"This is a long sketch, a strong two-person flavor......"
"Hippie smiley, unprofessional acting, jumpy storytelling, completely bad and fragmented plot!"
"What the hell is Zhang Yimou doing? He's cheating money......"
"The cost of 28 million is really cheap and not good......"
……
It can be seen that Zhang Yimou was completely coerced this time.
The bad movies of big directors often follow a rule, and the more they scold, the more popular they become.
"Three Guns" is like yesterday's "Wuji", and the box office is rising steadily amid scolding......
"Director Zhang's movie, what's wrong?"
Several actors from the crew came to consult Lin Nan, and he just said a few words.
"The producer seriously interfered with the director's creation, and I heard that the script and actors that were decided at the beginning were completely different from what I see now, and there was a big change of blood ...... battle."
Thinking about the overwhelming ridicule from the outside world, Lin Nan felt that Zhang Yimou would probably think about the cooperation between Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping this time.
"Everyone is ready to prepare for the next play, and try to ensure that one passes."
"Okay, Director Lin."
……
As the filming nears the end, there are main actors one after another, such as Zhang Yi and Wu Yan.
These two people are self-acquainted, and Wu Yan is even worse, so he came to chat with Lin Nan.
He wants to transform into a director, which is exactly the same as Xu Zheng's idea at the beginning.
"Over the years, I've been on Hong Kong Island, and almost all of them have come as a match. There are many people who have supported me, but the protagonist will never be my turn. ”
When Wu Yan said this, he was a little helpless, probably because he saw the reality clearly.
"So what are you going to do next?" Lin Nan asked curiously.
"I will put the focus of my work back to the mainland and take a few years off, after all, I am poor now, and I don't have a girlfriend yet, haha......"
Lin Nan was amused, he was a free and easy person.
"Well, if there is any suitable role in the future, I will consider you."
Hearing this, Wu Yan was obviously overjoyed.
"Thank you Director Lin, I can remember ......"
……
The fiercer the box office of "Three Guns", the louder the scolding, and it is already a flood of bad reviews.
Especially the colorful costumes and vulgar and abrupt lines were described by netizens as spicy eyes and disgusting.
Over 100 million in 4 days, 200 million in 8 days.
In an interview with the media, Zhang Weiping happily predicted.
"Rushing to 300 million in two weeks, winning 400 million in three weeks, and a month down, it will definitely be a new box office record......"
The result was not what Zhang predicted.
After the box office of "Three Guns" reached 200 million, it was cut in half and cut in half, and the daily growth plummeted.
As a producer, Zhang Weiping did not consider the problems of the film itself.
He blamed the two imported blockbusters that were released, "2012" and "District 9".
Zhang Weiping first bombarded the film scheduling problem, and then the map cannon.
"China Film is the Dominant Family", "Power Monopoly", "Suppression of Dissidents", "Huabiao Award Miasma", "Personality Cult"......
Han Sanping came to visit the class in "Thief", and Lin Nan joked about it.
"Don't say it, the nickname given by Zhang Weiping is quite domineering, 'Mountain Carving'!"
Han Sanping thought of Zhang Weiping with a look of disdain.
"I intervened blindly, word of mouth backlashed, and blamed the film schedule of the film?
The basin is well deducted, and one day there will be no Zhang Yimou......"
Lin Nan also admires Zhang Weiping, the imported film was set in the first half of the year, and this can be pulled up.
The nickname of "Mountain Eagle" can be regarded as completely offending Han Sanping to death.
The actors of the crew, seeing that Lin Nan and the others were talking about this topic, it was not easy to interject, so they didn't bother anymore after greeting.
Han Sanping walked around the crew and nodded and looked at Lin Nan.
"It's said that you're studying Hollywood this time, and it's really like that, and you look like that. How long will it take to finish? ”
"A week or so. However, the post-production and special effects of this movie will take some time. ”
Lin Nan replied. He predicts that the release of "Thieves" will have to wait until at least the second half of next year.
……
The filming of "Thieves" has entered the final stage.
The scenes are mainly focused on Zhang Hanyu, Liu Dehao, Fan Bingbing, Yan Danchen and others.
The last climax is Zhang Hanyu's action scene.
A dedicated actor who will always be impressive, he refused a stand-in.
A long list of chase and fight scenes, flowing smoothly, really only took a day to take it down.
"Click."
"It's time to rest, the final action scene of this movie will be finished."
Everyone understands what Lin Nan means, which means that the movie is a few days away.
Unlike "Thieves", which does not allow the media to visit the class, Lu Yang's "Embroidered Spring Knife" crew is much more open.
Every now and then, there are photos, which appear on the Internet, and the news is constant.
On the other hand, Wang Jiawei's "The Grandmaster" has started in a high-profile manner.
However, at the press conference, Zhang Ziyi was asked the most.
The latter is also a bad year.
was first asked why he was dumped, then questioned the loss of his Hollywood resources, so he had to return to China for development, and finally there was the splash of ink.
After the entire press conference, Zhang Ziyi had a black face throughout the whole process, barely holding out to the end, and the faces of the other main creators were not good-looking.
Good multimedia compares "Ip Man" with "The Grandmaster".
Ying Huang's speech was very professional, and he made a publicity by the way.
"The former is a purely commercial film, but at the same time it is full of feelings for the family and country, as for the latter, I don't know much about it, so I don't evaluate it.
In addition, "Ip Man 2" is about to complete post-production, and it is likely to be set for the first half of next year......"
…………
The crew of "Thieves", the last few shots.
Fan Bingbing was dressed in a swimsuit and chatted with Yan Danchen on the edge of the hotel's outdoor pool.
One is graceful, the other is quiet and elegant.
In the sub-shot, Zhang Hanyu in disguise became the final winner......
"Click."
"I announce that 'Thieves' is officially finished."
The benefits of dual-line shooting are reflected in the efficiency.
Lin Nan felt that he could shoot like this in the future.
In the story, the final winners are the two characters played by Zhang Hanyu and Yan Danchen, and the others are either dead or arrested.
"Director Lin, will there be a second part of this ending?"
Liu De asked with a smile, and the rest of the people also pricked up their ears.
Lin Nan shook his head, "Maybe." Leave a foreshadowing, maybe one day you will remember, there may be a sequel. ”
When he wrote the script, he did leave the foreshadowing of the ending. But he may not necessarily make a sequel himself, and maybe he will give it to others in the future.
"Haha, of course we hope for a sequel, if Director Lin is too busy."
Fan Bingbing, Yan Danchen and others joked.
Since the people who finished the film in front of him all left the crew, Lin Nan was not going to hold a banquet.
After a hug, everyone ended their crew life for a month.
"This drama is about a thief, but in real life, I hope we don't do anything illegal......"
As soon as Lin Nan's words fell, he heard Yan Danchen say with a smile: "Director Lin is also encouraged, he is worthy of being a great director, haha......"
Liu Dehao, Fan Bingbing, and the rest of the crew also laughed, looking approving.
Lin Nan saw it in his eyes, and only hoped that these people could go away.
Now that the movie is finished, Lin Nan no longer excludes the media.
Sina must have gotten first-hand information.
"'Thieves' is finished today."
"Hollywood production mode, shooting efficiency can be seen."
"Director Lin Nan, the filming ended smoothly."
……
Before being in the crew, the reporters couldn't see Lin Nan.
Now that it was finished, the media blocked him and asked him what he thought of "Three Guns".
The reputation of "Three Guns" is rotten.
In just one year, Zhang Yimou was dragged down from the altar, and he felt like a thousand people were pointing out.
Maybe Lao Mouzi also held his breath in his heart, and said in an interview, "Scold, scold my ......"
This time the crowd is even more angry.
"Director Lin, what do you think of the one-sided bad reviews of "Three Guns"?"
"Zhang Weiping accused Han Dong of being a mountain carving ......"
……
A large number of questions were thrown over, and Lin Nan was a little dizzy.
"The filming is too rushed, and I haven't had time to watch this movie yet......"
If he answered a question today, Lin Nan estimated that he would not be able to leave.
After getting in the car, I listened to Jiang Yurou talk about the box office of this movie.
broke 200 million in eight days, and it has been almost ten days, and the box office has not climbed to 250 million. To what extent does word-of-mouth have to be backlashed to have this kind of box office trend?
"Director Lin, "Peacock Feather" has also been completed......" Jiang Yurou said suddenly.
Lin Nan then remembered this TV series, which he bought together at that time.
"Then let's do the post-production, and when the time comes, you can go through the video website channel and retain the copyright ......"
Jiang Yurou actually wanted to talk about Zhou Yi's signed actors, but Lin Nan was not ready to take it, and he would not renew the contract with those people.
For a while, Jiang Yurou understood what Lin Nan meant.
……
After resting for two days, Liu Yifei called to urge.
"Have you set off? When will it arrive? ”
"Tomorrow, tomorrow morning you'll be able to see me."
"Don't lie to me, I'll get up early tomorrow!"
