Chapter 309: Soft Rice, That's Discrimination Against Men
There are not many directors who have never lost money, especially directors who play big productions.
Jiang Bin is definitely one of them.
Therefore, his films have never been short of investment.
And the investment is still higher than the other.
Jiang Bin's investment in the film this time is about 400 million, and the cost of publicity and distribution has not been calculated.
In Hollywood, it may not be a big production.
But in China, it was an absolute big production.
And it's a record investment.
So far, Changsheng Entertainment has invested the largest in "Terminator", which is still in preparation, with a budget of only 200 million.
If the shooting goes well, maybe there will be less.
"Wolf Warrior 2" has not yet been prepared, and it is estimated that it is more than 200 million.
400 million?
This means that if the film does not have 1.4 billion 1.4 billion, it will not be able to return to its original value.
No matter how big the production, the billion mark is difficult to break, which shows how risky it is.
Of course, Jiang Bin's movie is still favored by the market.
In addition to Jiang Bin's accumulated word-of-mouth, as well as its amazing box office appeal.
Zhang Sheng's joining undoubtedly added to the popularity of the film.
It's a powerful combination.
Even the quality is a little more guaranteed.
The quality of the films that Zhang Sheng participated in has always been guaranteed.
He didn't do much in movies in the first place.
Since he has taken over Jiang Bin's new film, he is naturally optimistic about this movie.
"Resident Evil" was released for a week, and the box office of nearly 800 million brightened the eyes of countless people.
However, the release of a new blockbuster still has a big impact on it.
The first thing that affects is naturally the film arrangement.
Secondly, it is naturally to divert the box office and consume the potential of "Resident Evil".
The reputation of the newly released movie is still extremely good.
The first-day box office was not as good as the first-day box office of "Resident Evil", but it also had 150 million.
It's off to a good start.
Under the impact of this film, "Resident Evil" only won more than 30 million at the box office in a single day.
The billion box office is stable, but the 1.5 billion mark is hopeless.
Zhang Sheng is already very satisfied with this.
"Resident Evil" is still in theaters, and Zhang Sheng's new film "The Terminator" is ready and will start immediately.
This time when the camera was turned on, Zhang Sheng didn't want to be low-key.
Is it also good to promote "Resident Evil" with the popularity of the new film's press conference?
Nowadays, more and more new films are being released, and the popularity of "Resident Evil" is getting weaker and weaker.
Although the box office has exceeded one billion.
But who doesn't want to get a boost and win a higher box office?
The launch conference of Zhang Sheng's new film naturally attracted countless media reporters.
"Director Zhang, your "Resident Evil" is still being released, why are you in a hurry to shoot a new film? Is it because after filming, you have to rush to shoot a new film directed by Jiang Bin? ”
During the question session, some media reporters couldn't help but ask Zhang Sheng.
"I'm not in a hurry." Zhang Sheng said, "This movie has been preparing for a long time, and since the preparations are ready, it will naturally start." ”
"This has nothing to do with starring in Director Jiang's film." Zhang Sheng said, "If you can't catch up with the schedule, you will naturally not accept Director Jiang's movie." ”
Saying this, it's not that you don't give Jiang Bin face.
Putting down his own movie, this is not in line with Zhang Sheng's character, nor is it in the interests of Changsheng Entertainment.
Zhang Shengke is not just a director and actor.
He is also the largest shareholder of Changsheng Entertainment.
If he is just an actor or director, put down "The Terminator" and star in Jiang Bin's movie.
It's still possible.
It's a pity that he has to think about the interests of Changsheng Entertainment.
Of course, this drama did shoot in advance and moved out of the schedule to star in Jiang Bin's drama.
But if this is the answer, then fans will inevitably have a little less confidence in this movie that "rushes" the schedule.
"Director Zhang's new film, why is he still making a science fiction film?" The reporter said, "You haven't thought about trying other types of films? ”
"Whatever fans need, Changsheng Entertainment will shoot. There are too few Chinese film sci-fi films, and the market is so big. Zhang Sheng said, "The choice to shoot science fiction films has market considerations. In addition, there is a personal favorite! ”
"I like sci-fi movies." Zhang Sheng said, "Of course, I will definitely consider making other types of films in the future." Such as action movies, kung fu movies, and even martial arts movies. I'm still young, take your time. ”
"What kind of sci-fi is Terminator?" The reporter then asked, "Source Code has action suspense, Resident Evil also has action suspense, and there are elements such as thriller. Sci-fi elements, it seems, are just one of them. The same seems to be true of Terminator. ”
The words seem to be very polite, but in fact, he is talking about the two-step movie before Zhang Sheng, which is not a pure science fiction film.
It's just that there are sci-fi elements.
"Source Code" was released, and it is not for nothing that this movie sells dog meat on the head of a sheep.
"Resident Evil" is similar.
I think this movie is a thriller or an action movie, and it is more suitable than a science fiction movie.
Is there a science fiction element to be a science fiction film?
This has also caused a lot of heated discussions on the Internet.
"There's also an action element to Terminator." Zhang Sheng said, "However, it only serves the sci-fi elements of the film." The sci-fi elements of this film are also far superior to the previous two. ”
This movie, with intelligent technology, robots, time and space travel and other science fiction elements, is said to be a science fiction film, and it deserves its name.
The story is also on the sci-fi side.
The explosive action scenes just add color to the movie.
"Director Zhang of this movie, why isn't the heroine Gu Sisi?"
Zhang Sheng has two movies in a row, and Gu Sisi is the heroine.
The first "Baby Zhiduoxing" just didn't have a suitable role.
But Gu Sisi also made a cameo in the film.
Two in a row, in the eyes of many people, Gu Sisi is Zhang Sheng's queen heroine.
Who made the two of them a couple?
"I'm afraid they'll say I'm nepotistic!" Zhang Sheng smiled and said.
When the reporter heard this, he pouted.
If you don't be nepotistic, then the heroine of this movie will be your company's artist?
You weren't "cronyism" that time?
Giving priority to their own artists, isn't that cronyism?
"The choice of actors is the result of a comprehensive consideration." Zhang Sheng said, "Liu Yun is quite suitable for the role of the heroine of this film. ”
Zhang Sheng chose Liu Yun, naturally not because she was suitable.
There are many actors who are suitable for that role.
To put it bluntly, it's not because Liu Yun is an artist under Changsheng Entertainment
The reason why Gu Sisi was not chosen is that there is a schedule problem, but I am more afraid that this movie may not have much promotion because of the poison of Gu Sisi.
The point is that there is also a scene of rolling the sheets inside.
The topic immediately shifted to Liu Yun.
At the press conference, Zhang Sheng was the absolute focus.
In addition, the leading actors Peng Yuqian and Liu Yun naturally have also received a lot of media attention.
After all, the popularity and popularity of the two terms are not low.
Especially Peng Yuqian, who became popular with his starring works "Jingwumen" and "Dragon Babu".
In addition, in "Resident Evil", he has also increased his popularity a lot.
As for the other Xie Song, there is no media to pay attention to him at all.
Even if Zhang Sheng led the topic to him several times.
It's a pity to no avail.
The media is clearly not interested in him.
I don't know!
They didn't seem to think that Zhang Sheng would hold such a big guy.
"When the film is released, you won't be ignored by the media like this."
At the end of the press conference, Zhang Sheng couldn't help but comfort Xie Song.
"Hmm!"
Xie Song smiled and nodded.
Ignored by the media, if it is said that there is no gap in the heart, it is definitely impossible.
However, he believes that after the movie is released, he will not say that it is hot, but at least he will not be ignored like this.
He's the star of the movie.
Maybe because of his fame, he can't be a film, but it's definitely the most brilliant one in the movie.
The topic of Zhang Sheng's new film "The Terminator" is still not small.
There is still some promotion for "Resident Evil".
However, it is just like that.
Very limited.
Resident Evil's potential has been almost exhausted.
"The Terminator" is on, and there are a lot of action scenes in it.
However, for Peng Yuqian and Xie Song, there is not much of a problem.
As for acting?
Peng Yuqian's acting skills have always been good, so he naturally has no difficulty.
As for Xie Song?
Although his acting skills are not good, the problem is that he doesn't have any acting skills in that role.
It was enough to have no expression on his face.
It gives the impression that he is a real robot, as if nothing can stop him.
Relatively speaking, Liu Yun has more performance in acting.
From an otherwise fragile woman to a strong transition.
She is the target of the Terminators and is hunted down by the Terminators.
After learning the fate of herself and her unborn son, she bravely faced the reality and became very strong, determined to protect her son's safe growth and save all mankind.
Soon after the start of "The Terminator", the script of Jiang Bin's new film was finalized and preparations began.
The actor trial also began.
Gu Sisi defeated other competitors by a narrow margin and won the heroine of this movie.
As soon as the news came out, it still attracted great attention.
Nowadays, the most concerned in the circle is Jiang Bin's new film.
"I said you had a high success rate." Zhang Sheng said with a smile.
Gu Sisi tried the situation, obviously he didn't have much confidence.
"It was said on the Internet that I could win this role because of you." Gu Sisi smiled and said.
Before Zhang Sheng debuted, Gu Sisi was already a popular little flower and a top star.
But now, Zhang Sheng is obviously coming from behind.
Whether it is fame, popularity, appeal, or even coffee position and influence, it is higher than Gu Sisi.
"You've been in the circle for so long, when did you care so much about what you say online?" Zhang Sheng said, "If you care, you lose." ”
"Do you think Director Jiang will give me face?" Zhang Sheng said, "I don't have that much face. The key to winning this role is still up to you. ”
Zhang Sheng's face is indeed not that big.
But if it has nothing to do with him, it is certainly impossible.
"That's what I said." Gu Sisi smiled and said, "Isn't it a happy thing to be able to rely on your boyfriend?" ”
"Oh!" Zhang Shengleng paused, and then said, "When you say this, I suddenly feel that I am a little better, and it is also excellent." ”
Leaning on a boyfriend?
It doesn't seem like much.
What if you rely on your girlfriend?
That's probably eating soft rice.
In many things, women will always be friendlier than men.
Especially when it comes to soft rice.
Women have never said "eat soft rice".
Soft rice, that's discrimination against men.
