Green Racecourse in Shunyi, a suburb of Beijing, where the opening ceremony of the movie "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" is about to be held.

The king really attaches great importance to this work, and has launched a publicity plan before the start.

Co-produced by Columbia and Huayi Brothers, directed by the internationally renowned He Wei, it brings together Jiang Wen, Zhao Wei, Nakai Guiyi, Wang Xueqi and other domestic and foreign celebrities.

Before the film was launched, it had already received great attention.

Looking at the reporter who was still debugging the camera, Wang Zhonglei leaned to He Yuan's side and reminded him in a whisper.

"Director He, if a reporter mentions Zhang Yimou's "Hero" later, you ......"

He Yu's tone was cold: "I know how to deal with it." ”

The eyes that were cast were clearly saying: I know how to urge the cow to break.

Wang Zhonglei smiled wryly, he could feel He Yuan's dissatisfaction with him.

After all, it was he who patted his chest and assured He Yu that he would definitely be able to invite Zhang Chu and join forces with Jiang Wen.

Outcome......

But he can't be blamed for that!

Zhang Chu didn't like the story of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", so he pushed it away.

At least that's what Wang Jinghua explained to Wang Zhongjun.

Who wrote the story?

Hoa!

An exciting story, a work that spans life, a film with a modern spirit.

This is what He Yu said to the king when he introduced the story of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth".

At that time, the two brothers were also very excited.

It just so happened that the new picture was filming "Hero", and the big and small kings, who had always been at odds with Zhang Weiping, were also holding back and wanted to press each other.

So he willingly paid real money.

At that time, the idea was very simple, He Wei's previous works were highly evaluated at home and abroad, and the Columbia company also liked the story of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth".

In addition, Zhang Chuzheng became popular at home and abroad with "Hurricane Rescue".

With such a strong lineup, "Hero", which overwhelms the new picture, can it still be considered a problem?

But no one expected Zhang Chu to refuse.

Fortunately, the Columbia company is very confident in He Yang and did not choose to withdraw because of Zhang Chu, otherwise, it would be really difficult to make up his mind about the investment amount of 80 million.

"Okay, you just have a plan in mind."

Zhang Chu won't act if he doesn't act, Wang Zhonglei is now concerned about his own play, but he must not be affected by Zhang Yimou's "Hero".

was still in the preparatory stage before, and some people said that they were rubbing off on the popularity of "Hero".

Thinking of Zhang Weiping's face, Wang Zhonglei couldn't help but clench his fists.

The start-up ceremony began, and the creators who had changed their costumes appeared on stage.

Click, click!

The flash shook people's heads and then entered the reporter's question-and-answer session.

The media has focused on He Wei, for a famous director with international influence, he has not directed any works for seven years, and now this "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" is enough to make him itch for seven years.

"I prefer to show mature men rather than feelings between men and women."

When asked what story "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" was about, He Yu's words made many reporters present stunned.

Even Jiang Wen on the stage, and Nakai Guiichi who listened to the translation, were subconsciously a little far away.

They have all read the script, so they naturally know that it is not what the reporters think, but Director He Da's words are too ......

It's a reverie!

He Yu didn't seem to notice the abnormality, and was still talking to himself: "Traditional stories always happen between a man and a woman, from "Romeo and Juliet" to "Titanic", and in the story of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", men occupy most of the content.

Hey......

The reporters' eyes were already a little wrong when they looked at He Fang.

If it's really like they think, how did this script pass the review and approval?

Wang Zhonglei, who was sitting next to He Wei, couldn't help but cover his face, couldn't he make his words clearer?

"As I just said, I especially like to show mature men because I think the emotions between men are very complex. My story isn't particularly strange, but it's a good fit for a cinematic approach. ”

Hehe!

Well, we're looking forward to it!

Get!

I'm afraid this misunderstanding will not be explained until the movie is released.

"Director He, the name of your work is "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", may I ask, is there any connection between it and "Hero" that director Zhang Yimou is producing?"

Sure enough, the reporter still mentioned Zhang Yimou's "Hero".

He Wei's face changed slightly, but he quickly returned to his usual expression of calm and unflattered.

"I don't know much about director Zhang Yimou's work, after all, it hasn't been released yet, the story of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", in general, is more epic than ordinary martial arts films, and at this point it is more like the Hollywood movie "Gladiator" that has been released in China before, but it will be more modern than "Gladiator" in action, just like ...... "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

Ooh......

The reference he found for "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" is not simple!

It's "Gladiator" again, and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" again.

He Yu continued to talk eloquently: "I always believe that making a historical movie is nothing more than to show the emotions of modern people in the historical background. Films with realistic themes may repeat an old theme, while films with historical themes may also have practical significance. ”

Belch......

Can you make that clear?

"I made a historical film like "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", not to tell the world how glorious China's past was, but to show the emotional life of modern people, and it can also be said to meet some spiritual needs of modern people."

Still don't understand!

So, a reporter changed the topic again, He Yu has not directed any works for seven years, and people still stay on "Swordsman in Shuangqi Town" for his works.

However, although the number of movies He Fang has made is not large, each one is very influential.

He Fang's works, from "Swordsman in Shuangqi Town", "Cannon Twin Lights", to "Sunshine Canyon" are all rough western style, and now this "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" will continue this Chinese-style western style?

"I didn't deliberately design it, but what excites me is that mood. I grew up in the capital, and I don't have any feelings for the west, but I have imagination as soon as I arrive in that environment, and I can't understand why, maybe because there are a lot of unknown things there that make me feel unsatisfied! ”

Forget it, just fill in He Yu's original words when the time comes.

Why do these big directors always like to say something specious and make people listen to something misty?

"Director He, there was news before, the crew contacted Zhang Chu in the preparation stage, why couldn't I cooperate with Zhang Chu in the end?"

You can't continue to do Tai Chi with this question, right?

All the reporters in the audience looked at He Wei, waiting for his answer.

"...... on this issue"

Seeing this, Wang Zhonglei quickly took over the topic.

"Director He has seen many actors before, Zhang Chu is just one of them, after chatting, I feel that he is not very compatible with the role in the story, the role that originally asked him to audition was a Tang envoy in the story, and later after discussing with Director He, he decided to choose a Dongying actor."

When the reporters heard this, they all looked at Takaichi Nakai on the stage.

Although this is very famous in Dongying and is still known as an actor, there are really few people in China who know about it.

Choosing a Dongying person to play, can it be more suitable than Zhang Chu?

The reporter wanted to ask again, but the host, who got Wang Zhonglei's hint, immediately led the topic to the actor.

Wang Zhonglei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his dissatisfaction with Wang Jinghua and Zhang Chu in his heart was even worse.

Make up your mind that you must do the job of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" beautifully, and when the time comes, see how Wang Jinghua is arrogant in front of him.

Yawn ~~~~

Wang Jinghua, who was on the set of "Hurricane Rescue" in Paris, sneezed.

Chen Lan, who had just rushed over to join the crew, looked at Wang Jinghua in surprise: "Sister Hua, are you uncomfortable?" ”

Belch?

"Nope! No! The nose suddenly itched a little. ”

Wang Jinghua said, rubbing his nose.

Who's talking about me?

Chen Lan didn't care: "The problem of the schedule I just talked about ......"

"Mrs. Xiang, this drama hasn't finished yet, you're going to prepare the third part, are you in a hurry? You also know that Zhang Chu will go to the United States next, and when the drama is finished, it will be just in time for the second part to be released, and we will talk about it then. ”

Chen Lan nodded, she also knew that she was indeed a little anxious.

But now Zhang Chu is getting more and more popular, especially this robbery. After the machine incident, Zhang Chu's name seems to have overshadowed Cheng Long, Li Lianjie and others.

Even if there is still a lack of a real Hollywood production to prove herself, Chen Lan knows very well that with Zhang Chu's ability, this is not a problem at all.

Wang Jinghua frowned when he saw Chen Lan, and then said: "Mrs. Xiang, the contract we signed before, we will not regret it!" ”

Hearing Wang Jinghua say this, Chen Lan smiled.

That's what worries her.

Previously, Zhang Chu and Yongsheng signed the contract for the next four parts of "Hurricane Rescue" in one go, and the salary and box office share ratio have been set.

But Zhang Chu's fame is getting bigger and bigger, and the box office appeal is also predictably getting higher and higher.

If Zhang Chu is not satisfied, even if he signs a contract, it is just a piece of paper.

"Sister Hua! Xiang Tai! What to talk about? ”

Zhang Chu walked over at this time, and Wang Jinghua was about to speak, when he saw the abrasions on his arms at a glance.

"You're ......"

Zhang Chu smiled indifferently: "It's okay, I didn't pay attention to it just now." ”

An action movie actor, it is not a problem to be injured during filming, let alone this kind of abrasion.

"Brother! Sit down! ”

The pony followed with a bitter face, still carrying a medical kit in his hand.

Seeing this, Wang Jinghua and Chen Lan glanced at each other, and they both smiled helplessly.
