"Director Zhang, this is a literary film!"

After Dong Zhenjun read the script, he looked at Zhang Sheng with some surprise.

This took him by surprise.

Zhang Sheng's scripts have always been commercial films, why did this cooperation change to literary films.

What's going on?

Dong Zhenjun is the head of the production department of Penglai Film and Television.

When Zhang Sheng gave Zhang Wen the script, he naturally gave him a copy.

He will serve as the film's producer.

Of course, the premise is that Penglai Film and Television will make this movie.

He looked at Zhang Sheng, and then at Zhang Wen.

Zhang Wen talked to Zhang Sheng about the script before.

Could it be that the crux is not Zhang Sheng's place, but Zhang Wen's place.

If that's the case, then it's troublesome.

Penglai Film and Television recruited Zhang Wen to its subsidiary, but it took a lot of thought.

The company also gives him a great deal of freedom.

If he wants to make this movie, the company really can't object.

"This movie doesn't work?" Zhang Sheng nodded and asked.

Cooperate with a movie, whether it is a literary film or a commercial film, Penglai Film and Television did not say when they came to the door.

If you didn't say it, then there's nothing wrong with me playing freely!

What's more, Zhang Wen wants to shoot a story about Peking Opera.

This is more of a literary film.

Peking Opera, the quintessence of the country.

I am afraid it is not appropriate to make a film about Peking Opera into a commercial film!

Of course, if Penglai Film and Television asks for a change in the script of a commercial blockbuster, Zhang Sheng will naturally not refuse.

Writing a script takes time, though.

Commercial films are not without risks.

"Okay! Why not? That's too good. Zhang Wen said, "Just shoot it!" It's the best script I've ever seen, and it's the one I want the most. ”

Dong Zhenjun hadn't spoken yet, but Zhang Wen did.

He seems to be afraid of changing the script and preemptively finalizing the word.

When Dong Zhenhua heard this, he opened his mouth, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Zhang Wendu said so, what else could he say.

"Mr. Dong, if Penglai Film and Television is unwilling to invest in production."

"Director Zhang wants to shoot, then shoot!" Dong Zhenjun waved his hand and said, "No matter what Director Zhang wants to film, Penglai Film and Television will support it." ”

Penglai Film and Television does not invest in production, and Changsheng Entertainment will definitely be happy.

With Zhang Wen's temper, maybe because of this movie, he jumped from Penglai Film and Television to Changsheng Entertainment.

If so, then the fun will be great.

Penglai Film and Television finally recruited Zhang Wen to its subsidiary, but it couldn't keep people.

Isn't that a joke?

The problem is to change jobs and go to Changsheng Entertainment.

In this way, how can Penglai Film and Television and Changsheng Entertainment cooperate?

After Dong Zhenjun finished speaking, he glanced at Zhang Sheng.

He wasn't sure.

Zhang Sheng seems to have deliberately written such a literary film, or it is purely a coincidence.

Probably not.

Changsheng Entertainment and Penglai Film and Television have connected interests in a short period of time, and there will be no conflict of interest.

The two companies should be an alliance, not a hostile hostile.

Changsheng Entertainment has almost become the target of public criticism in the domestic film and television industry because of the two movies "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Terminator".

The wood show will be destroyed by the forest wind.

They need allies now.

And Penglai Film and Television is.

Because Penglai Film and Television is the same as Entertainment, it poses a threat to those old film and television companies.

It seems that the problem should be with Zhang Wen.

"The box office of literary films is not necessarily bad." Zhang Sheng said, "If you can win an international award or something, you don't have to worry about the box office." ”

"Penglai Film and Television's first movie, which is well received, is undoubtedly the best choice." Zhang Sheng continued, "The box office is a little worse, and the impact is not big, after all, there is no shortage of funds for the development of Penglai Film and Television for the time being." But if it's an award."

Zhang Sheng's words were not finished, but Dong Zhenjun understood the meaning.

Penglai Film and Television is not short of money, but who would dislike having more money?

Dong Zhenjun is not a pure filmmaker.

Compared with winning awards, he obviously pays more attention to the box office.

But what can be done now?

Then again, the script of "Farewell My Concubine" is really good.

Although it is a literary film, the box office may not be bad.

Of course, this is also a bit of helpless self-comfort.

However, there is one thing he agrees with Zhang Sheng.

Penglai Film and Television's first movie should seek stability.

It's best not to lose money.

Making commercial films is undoubtedly more risky.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that making this movie is also a good choice.

decided to shoot "Farewell My Concubine", but did not start preparations immediately.

Although Zhang Wen has found stories related to the filming of Peking Opera, there are some things that he still needs to understand first.

In addition, the script has to be discussed.

He doesn't think Zhang Sheng doesn't have his own understanding of the film.

Zhang Sheng is also a director.

And also an excellent director. His opinion should still be taken seriously.

Zhang Sheng is still busy.

Follow up on the post-production of Resident Evil 2.

Prepare the song.

Then there's the codeword.

"Notes on Tomb Robbery" is intermittently finished.

The new book is naturally "Covering the Sky"!

After all, a lot of words have come out before, and there are a lot of manuscripts.

As soon as this one came out, it naturally became popular.

The Nine Dragons coffin at the beginning directly shocked countless readers.

Of course, the reason for the popularity is largely due to the huge popularity accumulated in the previous films.

Now he is a proper god of online literature.

The online drama "Ghost Blows the Lantern" is very popular.

And "Notes on Tomb Robbery" is also ready to be released in a drama version.

At the end of March, "Starry Night", which was released for nearly two months, was painted, with a cumulative box office of 3.7 billion.

This box office is not as good as "The Terminator", ranking third in the total box office.

This film also became the third Chinese-language film to break three billion at the box office.

"I heard that you don't make movies, and you're in the music industry again?" Jiang Bin looked at Zhang Sheng and asked.

Under the painting of "Starry Sky", Jiang Bin invited Zhang Sheng and other main creators to get together, which can be regarded as an end to this movie.

Zhang Sheng naturally would not refuse.

He's busy, but he's not too late to find time.

"Using music to open up the popularity of North America is also good for the box office of the film in North America." Zhang Sheng said with a smile, "If "Starry Night" is released in North America and benefits from it, Director Jiang will have to wrap me a red envelope!" ”

"You're as confident as ever." Jiang Bin said, "If that's the case, the red envelope will definitely be indispensable to you." ”

"Starfield" will definitely be released in North America.

However, it is uncertain when it will be released.

Perhaps, Zhang Sheng's "Terminator" has been released, but this movie has not yet been released.

If it weren't for Zhang Sheng's delay, "The Terminator" would have actually been released in North America.

"Actually, I'm more confident in music than in movies." Zhang Sheng said, "In my opinion, music is much simpler than movies. ”

Is music simple?

Obviously not simple.

can move a song over and a movie over at a glance, it's easy and who is difficult.

Musical works and film and television works are obviously different.

"Then I wish you success." Jiang Bin smiled and said.

Zhang Sheng will go to North America to participate in a music variety show.

This is no secret in the circle.

It was not surprising that Jiang Bin knew that.

In fact, many domestic singers have participated in foreign variety shows, but compared with Zhang Sheng this time, it is obviously a lot worse.

One is that the attention of the program is different.

"Singer" is also very popular in North America, and now there are many singers who want to participate in Europe and the United States.

In addition, the show was imported from China, and Zhang Sheng was also one of the copyright owners.

This reminds many people of Zhang Sheng's path to fame.

He first became famous with the talent show "Bright Star", but what really stood firm in the circle and became completely famous was probably the show "Singer".

And that show was planned by himself.

Now, he is using this show to open up his popularity in North America

If he really opened up his popularity, then the show "Singer" was used by him to the extreme.

Is it possible for Zhang Sheng to become famous in North America as a singer?

Someone is convinced.

But many more are skeptical.

Chinese music is actually similar to Chinese movies, and it has not gone out of the world.

International pop music centers in Europe and the United States.

Of course, this also has something to do with the global spread of English.

Chinese singers really don't have much influence internationally.

It can't be compared with European and American singers at all.

Zhang Sheng went to North America, a foreign country, lost his home advantage, and had a language disadvantage.

He's not well-known in North America!

What's more, Chinese music is obviously different from music in Europe and the United States.

How many fans over there recognize Chinese music?

No one doubts Zhang Sheng's musical talent, but his music may not be able to conquer fans in Europe and the United States.

"Are you sure?"

Mentioning this, Gu Sisi couldn't help but ask.

It's not that she doesn't think about Zhang Sheng, but she cares too much.

"I know the first round of singers in this season of 'The Singer' in North America." Gu Sisi said, "Both popularity and strength are a notch higher than the previous season." ”

The last season of "Singer" in North America was a big hit.

Even if it is a singer who travels in one round, his popularity skyrockets afterwards.

This season, it is naturally much easier to invite singers, and the coffee position is much stronger than the previous season.

This is actually no different from China.

The popularity of the show can bring great benefits to the guests, which naturally makes people flock to it.

"It's not a big problem." Zhang Sheng said, "My goal is not to be a champion. ”

"Champion?" Gu Sisi smiled and said, "Is it possible?" ”

Is it possible?

It really can't be.

It is impossible for the North American "Singer" program group to let Zhang Sheng win the championship.

He can't win the championship at home, let alone abroad.

Champions don't just need strength.

If the North American "Singer" program team let a Chinese singer like Zhang Sheng win the championship, the program team will probably be scolded to death.

"You have to get a good ranking." Gu Sisi said, "If you are always on the verge of elimination, it is not a good thing. ”

As for elimination?

Gu Sisi obviously didn't think about it.

Zhang Sheng owns the copyright, and the other party wants to continue to do it, so there will be no shady scenes for Zhang Sheng.

If there is no profit, there will be no follow-up after the first season.

And invited Zhang Sheng, it was clear that he wanted to increase the influence of his program in China.

Maybe I want to sell the broadcast rights.

Of course, the most important thing is that Gu Sisi believes in Zhang Sheng's strength.

"So unconfident in me?" Zhang Sheng smiled and said, "English songs, I actually know it too." ”

Zhang Sheng's English is good, Gu Sisi still knows.

But she hadn't heard English songs.
