Chapter 264 Director Candidates 3/4
Chapter 264 Director Candidate (34)
"Soldier Assault", Shen Xudong decided to invest in the production as the company's first TV series!
Anyway, it’s only 12 million.
Chengtian provided 8 million in funds, accounting for half of the investment, and Gao Fenfen obtained another 4 million from the TV station...
Shen Xudong didn't want to invite Zhang Guoli at first. Isn't it just a coincidence that he got involved...
"…Did you write the script?"
"The script written by my senior brother, Lan Xiaolong, was originally called "Elna: Assault" and won the Cao Yu Drama Award...The plot is very simple, from a rookie to a king of soldiers...a very manly drama!"
"...No emotional scenes?"
"Hmm... So, I'm a little afraid to do it." Of course, Shen Xudong quickly changed the subject: "But I think there should be a market for this drama, because many people are interested in special forces..."
Zhang Guoli chuckled: "Then do it..."
"real?"
After the Anshi Rebellion, Anxi lost contact with the Central Plains, and the Western Regions became an enclave. The central government did not know that the Western Regions were still there. The Tang army defended the Western Regions for 40 years, and finally fell.
He Ping and Feng Xiaogang have a very good relationship.
The personal color is too strong. The basic script, director, martial arts style, and narrative are all built around this core protagonist, and everyone else is a supporting role.
Shen Xudong was about to praise the script of "Soldier Assault", when Feng Xiaogang finished reading "Glory of the Tang Dynasty": "This is so well written! It has a sense of national epic!"
Golden Harvest had to finally compromise with Jackie Chan, abandoning Huang Zhiqiang and letting Chen Zhihua take over...
He was actually directed by Jiang Wen to make a movie...
He had to wait until he entered the 100-million-yuan director club, and then he decided to prove that he was not just a "comedy New Year film" and made a transformation to make a literary and artistic film "The Night Banquet"...
He Ping starred in "Big Shot". As for China's audio and video industry, it is very profitable. Take DVD as an example. There are 27 million DVDs in China. Each DVD player consumes 10 DVD disks per year. We draw a royalty of 1 yuan for a DVD. This 1 yuan is multiplied by 10 to get ten yuan, and 10 is multiplied by 27 million, which is 270 million...'
He can also be considered a representative figure among the fifth generation of directors.
"I worked on "Screening Room", which tells about the past of Hong Kong movies. I have read a lot of information! And I am very interested in gossip and scandals, including behind-the-scenes information. I can basically remember it after just one glance..."
"...No, these are all things that happened in history..."
Jackie Chan is actually the same. He wrote, directed and starred in several of his masterpieces "Police Story 1, 2", "Plan A", and "Plan A Sequel"...
Zhang Guoli was surprised: "How do you know so many things?"
Including "Drunken Master 2", this movie was led by Jackie Chan to raise funds for the Hong Kong Stuntmen Association to build an office building, so he used his early classic IP - the famous "Drunken Master"...
There is also a little story here, that is, after Liu Jialiang finished filming "Drunken Master 2", he felt that it had become an out-and-out Jackie Chan work and was not to his liking, so he immediately invited Andy Lau, Li Jiaxin, Cheng Shaoqiu, etc. to start a new venture and direct and star in it. "Drunken Master 3", and arranged to be released in the same year as Jackie Chan's "Drunken Master 2"...
Director Feng is not yet in trouble...
Looking northwest to Chang'an, one can see countless mountains.
Shen Xudong thought for a while and then praised: "No matter who makes a Jackie Chan movie, it must be a Jackie Chan movie and will not be regarded as the director's work... A director like you has no need to cooperate with this kind of actor..."
A large number of stunt people were invited to participate, including Liu Jialiang...
The last Anxi Army of the Tang Dynasty guarded the Western Regions alone for fifty years. In the final battle in the isolated city, there were all white-haired veterans in the heavy snow;
Feng Xiaogang nodded: "I heard them say that during the filming of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", Jiang Wen couldn't sit still, and all kinds of distractions..."
Shen Xudong told Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Guoli about this: "I feel that Jackie Chan's character is that of a big brother. If you give me face, I will give you face!"
"If I didn't have time, I would definitely shoot this scene!"
"Crime Unit" was originally called "Beast Detective". The prototype was based on the kidnapping case of rich man Wang Dehui by robbers. Director Huang Zhiqiang found screenwriters such as Chen Desen, Zhang Zhicheng, Chen Wenqiang and other screenwriters to adapt the case into a movie, named "Beast Detective" , starring Li Lianlian.
Speaking of this, Shen Xudong continued: "Actually, many historical stories are suitable for movie adaptations, such as the undefeated war god Murong Chui. In the old age of the hero, the 100,000 Dragon City cavalry that he had worked hard to accumulate throughout his life were destroyed in one day. The white-haired Murong Chui Passing through Shenhepi, we mourned the soldiers who died in the battle and cried endlessly... By the way, the thirteen heroes returned to Yumen..."
Why are these things not recorded in history books?
Therefore, in order to perform a performance that suits your own style, you must get involved in on-set affairs. Gradually, you can only direct and act yourself. Only in this way can other supporting actors be integrated into your own personal film style...
Jackie Chan doesn't like elements in his movies that are not suitable for children!
And then I was scolded...
However, due to salary contract issues during this period, Li Lianlian and Jiahe had a falling out, and the filming was interrupted. Later Jiahe asked Jackie Chan to come to the rescue and renamed the movie "Crime Squad", with Huang Zhiqiang still serving as the director.
During the filming process, the two also had differences due to different concepts. In the end, Liu Jialiang simply gave up the director's position after less than two weeks of filming, and became only an actor instead of a director...
In fact, Jackie Chan's "Drunken Master 2" was originally called "Drunken Master 2" by Golden Harvest, but the producer of "Drunken Master 3" was Li Jiansheng, a member of the Marriage Class...
Because we have never mentioned the tragic war between Tang and Tibet, only two marriages and one alliance between the two sides...
In fact, Jackie Chan has also done something to oust the director - "Crime Unit".
After forty years of Master Wang's reign, Yumen Pass is no longer around...
"Too…"
"Hello!"
…
There is no right or wrong, I can only say that movies are so diverse.
Director Huang Zhiqiang is a typical third-level film director who likes to add some violence and sexual elements to his movies.
Shen Xudong scratched his head: "I never thought about this..."
At that time, he served as the producer of "Party A and Party B" and "See You or Be Parted" directed by Feng Xiaogang.
The Japanese actor in "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" is Nakai Kiichi. After returning to Japan, he wrote a memoir about the filming of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth". Nakai Kiichi was very dissatisfied with Jiang Wen in the book because Jiang Wen often went there The directing director He Ping is a bit overshadowed...
Many people don’t even know the name of Guo Xin, the commander-in-chief of the Anxi Army of the Tang Dynasty!
Jackie Chan ordered all previous movie posters to be changed to "Drunken Master 2", so that "Drunken Master 3" can be released in a legitimate manner...
"Then who do you think is suitable to be the director of "Glory of the Tang Dynasty"?"
Shen Xudong chuckled, and then said: "...Xu Ke, after all, the environment of his "New Dragon Gate Inn" is very close to that of "Glory of the Tang Dynasty"..."
"Xu Ke..."
Zhang Guoli looked at Feng Xiaogang, who said: "He seems to be filming "Seven Swords"... Ci Wen's drama!"
"Can you recommend another one?"
Chapter completed!
