Despite being very busy, Zhang Yuanjun still found time to attend the "Wolf of the East" premiere press conference of "Wolf Warrior".

The premiere was not very lively, and there were few guests.

Even the main creator didn't arrive, and Yu Nan and Ni Dahong didn't come.

There was no way, in order to support the scene, Zhang Yuanjun was invited to the stage as a friend.

But Zhang Yuanjun did not dominate, he acted as a qualified listener and witness throughout the event, occasionally interjecting two sentences, mainly telling and sharing or leaving it to Wu Jing.

At the press conference, Wu Jing, as the director and leading actor, expressed his original intention: "I hope to create a new genre in Chinese films, which can arouse a kind of resonance among more young people and all such people with patriotic feelings." ”

He also revealed that it was very difficult to prepare this movie, not only for seven years, but also by many people who "poured cold water" on him, persuading him not to shoot military themes, because now "the market does not recognize", "girls don't like to watch such movies", "there are warm men and little fresh meat everywhere".

"But I still have to make it, because this is my dream, and China lacks movies with men to the extreme." Wu Jing had already shown his dissatisfaction with the trend of fresh meat at this time.

Speaking of this, Wu Jing mentioned Zhang Yuanjun: "In this regard, I am especially grateful to my good brother Zhang Yuanjun. ”

Zhang Yuanjun didn't know about this process in advance.

"When preparing for this movie at that time," Wu Jing continued, "almost everyone objected, saying that you should stop filming, and only Yuan Jun supported me, saying that I hadn't seen a domestic military action movie on the big screen for a long time." I thought, even if it's just one person watching it, I'm going to shoot it. Speaking of this experience, Wu Jing was quite emotional.

Zhang Yuanjun took over: "I really didn't say this out of comfort or encouragement, I really want to see our domestic military action movies." I have limited ability, and I am not a professional action actor, at that time, I heard Brother Jing say that he wanted to do it, and I supported him very much. ”

The premiere platform, you have to blow it a little bit.

Zhang Yuanjun even thought of the title of the press release after the press conference for Wu Jing: "Wolf Warrior Premiere!" Zhang Yuanjun: Only Wu Jing can make military action movies in China.

At the press conference, Wu Jing also came to a "golden basin to wash his hands", washing his hands in a basin labeled with "Kung Fu Boy", saying that he would tear off the label of "Kung Fu Boy" after he finished it.

Zhang Yuanjun did not watch the movie at the scene, nor did he participate in the post-screening exchange, and within a few minutes of the live screening, he left backstage with his waist bent.

At today's premiere, the crew of "Wolf Warrior" announced that the movie is scheduled for March 6.

It seems that the distribution company still wants to be safe, but it should be like this, Wu Jing is a rookie director, and he didn't have appeal as an actor before, "Wolf Warrior" is still an unpopular military action movie, and there are no big-name actors to help, so he really lacks confidence to enter the popular schedule.

Although Gong Li only signed an intent contract, the crew of "Invisible Guest" can still use Gong Li's banner to attract investment for the film.

And no one in the industry will think that Gong Li will not sign a contract in the end.

Zhang Yuanjun went out in person, and the intention contract was signed, and the formal contract was only two months away.

So many companies are willing to pay for "The Invisible Guest".

Wanda said that the cost of 100 million yuan is, of course, bragging about, Zhang Yuanjun's partner Gong Li, such a golden project, Wanda's family eats it all, which is equivalent to offending the entire industry.

But Wanda still asked to participate in the film as one of the main production companies, and was very willing to pay for it.

The initial budget made by the production team for the film is 100 million yuan, of which the production cost is 50 million and the publicity cost is 50 million!

It's so arrogant.

Zhang Yuanjun and Gong Li each have a salary of 10 million.

In terms of investment, Zhang Yuanjun's studio took 34.57% first and was responsible for the filming of the film - the script came from Zhang Yuanjun, the director Xin Yukun stood on Zhang Yuanjun's side, and the producer Cao Baoping was also invited by Zhang Yuanjun, and the studio has always been responsible for the preliminary preparation of the film.

The first investor introduced by Zhang Yuanjun was China Film, which undertook 13.44% of the film's funding and was responsible for the post-production and distribution of the film - making a movie, it would be better to have China Film.

Wanda agreed to Zhang Yuanjun's additional conditions for the release of "Funeral Coffin" and became the third major investor of the film.

Xin Yukun, who was still in the field, heard that his "Funeral Coffin" had finally found a distributor, and that it was a big factory like Wanda that distributed it on his behalf, and he almost cried on the phone.

The matter of money is almost negotiated, and the actors should be talked about later.

In order to avoid many accidents in the long night, China Film actively urged Gong Li to sign a formal actor contract after entering the game.

On the other hand, the casting team led by Cao Baoping also officially began casting for the film, striving to finish the selection before the year, and everyone didn't want to spend the New Year with unfinished work.

There are not many roles to choose in total, and there are candidates to be invited, so call one by one to invite auditions and ask for schedules.

waited for Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei to finish the first rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala, and got the actors selected by Cao Baoping that night.

There are two main actors, one is the father of the deceased, that is, the husband of the old lady, who does not have many scenes, and invited Li Jianyi to play; The second female lead, that is, the role of the hero's lover, Cao Baoping called Ni Ni, and agreed to the other party as soon as he said it, and the salary was not discussed.

As for the unlucky son, this role is not so important, Cao Baoping planned to pull one from the school at random, and he was killed when he appeared anyway.

Zhang Yuanjun is very satisfied with this casting list.

The casting team must have considered publicity when choosing the second female number, otherwise others didn't want it, but they chose Ni Ni, who is also a girl?

When the time comes, the two generations of Mou girls will be in the same frame, and the slogans will be ready-made.

"There's nothing wrong with me." has no objection to the casting of Zhang Yuanjun, "How is the scene over there with Xin Yukun?" No news for more than ten days. Is the start-up time set quickly, so that you can adjust the schedule with the actors. ”

"Xin Yukun is still in the magic capital, and he will be back in a few days, and we will add up the total according to his situation when the start-up time comes."

"Okay." Zhang Yuanjun's most important job now is the Spring Festival Gala, even if he has the heart to prepare for the crew, he doesn't have the extra energy to intervene, he is happy to do things for others, "I'm busy with the Spring Festival Gala, and I'm confused now." ”

The staff advised him: "Go back and rest, there is nothing particularly important here for the crew." ”

Zhang Yuanjun stood up: "It's okay, call me at any time if you have something." ”

When he got home, he saw Liu Yifei sitting cross-legged in the living room meditating and practicing yoga.

"You're idle." Zhang Yuanjun said.

"The more intense the work, the more you have to find a gap to relax." Liu Yifei closed her eyes and breathed slowly, "Come, you sit down too." ”

"I won't."

"I'll teach you." Coach Liu went online.

Zhang Yuanjun sat opposite Liu Yifei, and she said: "Like me, breathe relaxed." ”

"You look good in yoga clothes."

"Now is not the time to say that." Liu Yifei has a stable heart.

"It's just that the legs are a little thick."

"Hmph." Liu Yifei squeezed out a snort from her nose, "You can say whatever you want." ”

"Let me ask you, do you women wear this kind of tights, will you strangle your crotch?"

"Hmph." Liu Yifei understood that he didn't want to learn yoga with him at all. (End of chapter)
