Chapter 638: Recruiting old actors, only one contract
Zhang Yimou said: "When you say that, I really want to watch the overseas version of "Twelve Angry Men"."
Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "If you want to see it, you can go to Qingtian Entertainment Company and I will ask Mimi to arrange it for you."
Zhang Yimou waved his hand and said: "Don't bother me. It won't be too late for me to watch it after it is posted on the Qingtian Video website."
"That's okay!" Zhang Xiao nodded and said: "Anyway, the overall layout is the same, only the lines and performance methods are slightly different."
At this time, many famous celebrities were interviewed by the media outside the theater.
For them, if they see a good movie at a premiere, they will not be polite in front of the media at all, and will praise it loudly if they catch it.
But if they are unlucky and encounter a bad movie, they will be in big trouble. On the one hand, they don’t want to lie to avoid being slapped in the face by movie fans. On the other hand, they don’t want to tell the truth to avoid offending the film producers.
Therefore, in order to avoid this embarrassment, they will find various reasons and excuses to escape from the interview, and some even do not come out of the theater.
Zhang Xiao's "Twelve Angry Men" obviously gave them the confidence to accept interviews with reporters, because this movie is really excellent.
"Director Chen, what do you think of the movie "12 Angry Men"?"
As one of the most famous directors in China, Chen Kaige was surrounded by reporters as soon as he came out.
"A classic!" Chen Kaige said directly: "The whole film has only one scene and twelve people, without any suspense, thriller, or exciting scenes. All storylines are driven by the actors' performances and lines. It stands to reason.
It’s said that a movie like this should be extremely different.”
"But in this movie, no one in the theater was distracted, and no one even went to the toilet. You can imagine how great this movie is."
"How would you rate "12 Angry Men"?"
"It must be above 9 points."
···
"Wu Jin, everyone knows that you and Xiao Shen are good buddies. Can you comment on this movie from an objective perspective?"
Wu Jin said with a smile: "Objectively speaking, I give this movie a 9.5. A movie that was completed in a week actually kept me pinned on the chair for an hour and a half from beginning to end. This shows the charm of this movie."
How big."
"Can you tell me what story this movie is about?"
"I can describe it in one sentence. Twelve people satirized many bad phenomena in society around a murder case. It is really exciting. You can go to the theater and watch it."
···
Xu Zheng: "I really learned a lesson today. I never thought that movies could be made like this. This is simply creating a new genre."
···
Huang Bai: "This trip was not in vain, I learned a lot. I also understand why Director Zhang Da found so many veteran actors with outstanding acting skills to act, because this is a drama movie that is completely supported by acting skills. These
The teacher’s performance in it can be used as a textbook for film school acting classes.”
···
Jiang Wen: "Full marks, I give full marks to the screenwriter, director, and actors of this movie. The screenwriter came up with a very good idea, the director perfectly reproduced the idea, and the actors performed the idea perfectly.
This should be one of the most cleverly designed movies I have seen in the past ten years."
···
Both the director and the actors were full of praise for the movie "12 Angry Men" during interviews.
Fans who watched the first scene were also very happy. As soon as they walked out of the theater, they couldn't wait to use their mobile phones to express their feelings online.
“Highly recommend 12 Angry Men!”
"Without further ado, it will be delivered at 9.5 minutes."
"Xiao Shenzhi shot a classic drama in just one week."
"I held it in for half an hour and didn't dare to go to the toilet for fear of missing any shot."
"It's just a shabby house, but Xiao Shen managed to make it look beautiful, and I was convinced."
"This is not as simple as a case, but a variety of life situations."
"I love the twelve actors above so much."
"I don't know much about acting. For the first time, I discovered that there are actors who can really support a drama through their acting skills."
"I just gave the movie "12 Angry Men" ten points, I loved it."
"Don't tell me that the 28 yuan ticket for a 90-minute movie feels very expensive, but after you watch it, you will find that even 50 yuan is worth it."
“···”
Although the ratings on the Ministry of Culture’s film review website have not yet appeared, looking at the posts posted by fans on the forum, the reputation is definitely not much different.
After the premiere, Zhang Xiao invited the actors from the "Twelve Angry Men" crew to celebrate.
After three drinks and five dishes, Zhang Xiao looked at Han Tongsheng, Li Guangfu and the other six people and said, "Teachers, have you ever thought about coming here to develop in the film and television industry?"
Everyone was stunned, and Han Tongsheng asked: "Director Zhang, what do you mean by this?"
Zhang Xiao said: "I think your acting skills are so good, they shouldn't just be buried in small theaters."
Chen Daoming smiled and said: "Zhang Xiao, do you want to invite Lao Han and Lao Li to join Qingtian Entertainment Company?"
"That's right!" Zhang Xiao nodded and said: "Look at the current entertainment industry. There are handsome men and beauties everywhere with exaggerated acting skills. There are no real acting masters. I hope the six teachers can join Qingtian Entertainment Company.
, let the outside world see what a real actor is like."
At this time, Li Xuejian said with a smile: "Zhang Xiao, you have to be careful. These people are the pillars of the Kyoto Repertory Theater. If you do this, some people will fight you."
Zhang Xiao said: "I didn't ask all the teachers to leave the drama troupe. When there is a play, you can go and act in it. When there is no play, you can go back and perform in the play!"
Chen Daoming said: "This is a good suggestion. Old Han and Old Li, you are getting older. You can't always stand in the drama troupe. It's time to make room for young people. It just so happens that Qingtian Entertainment Company is not bad.
, they have no shame to invest in thirty or forty film and television dramas, and your roles are absolutely indispensable. I think you can think about it carefully."
Li Guangfu coughed and said: "This matter is a bit big. We must go back and discuss it with the regiment and family."
Han Tongsheng nodded and said, "That's right!"
Zhang Xiao took out his mobile phone and said with a smile: "Okay, I will send the contract to everyone's mobile phones. You can think about it after you go back. If you are willing to join Qingtian, just give me a call. If you are not willing, I will definitely
Don’t force it.”
Everyone said in unison: "Okay!"
After everything was done, Zhang Xiao was about to take back his phone when Chen Daoming suddenly said, "Can I see their actor contract?"
Zhang Xiao was stunned, handed the phone to Chen Daoming, and said with a smile: "What, Teacher Chen, are you still afraid that I will dig a hole for the six teachers?"
Chen Daoming said: "What can't you big capitalists do? I have to help them review it."
Zhang Xiao said: "Actors make an appointment. If you don't feel good, you can break the contract and withdraw at any time. The liquidated damages are only a symbolic 10,000 yuan... Remuneration, variety shows, and advertising endorsements are distributed according to 8:2, actors 8, Sunny Day 2,
