Chapter 48: Focus (Shaolin Soccer) (Part 1)
Chapter 2 White Forty-eight focuses on "Shaolin Football" (Part 1)
The candidate for the premiere of "Shaolin Football" surprised everyone.
In the eyes of many people, the host of this premiere is He Jun. Whether it is He Jun's ability or his relationship with Zhang Le.
But it was unexpected. He Jun, the host of Zhang Le and Yang Xiner's wedding, this time, just like his two old partners, he only attended as a guest.
The host this time is the signing artist of Xinle Film and Television, which is Huang Yao, who was held up by Xinle Film and Television in one hand.
Among the contracted artists of Xinle Film and Television, Huang Yao's popularity was beyond everyone's expectations. No one would have thought that this middle-aged man with a low appearance would become a box office guarantee without Zhang Le's support.
After Huang Yaozhi's "Crazy Stone", he made a guest appearance in "Tang Bohu's Flavor" and did not participate in Zhang Le's films. He is undoubtedly an alternative to Xinle Film and Television.
Zhang Le, a world-renowned movie premiere, was hosted by Huang Yao. Does Xinle Film and Television really make him transform into a host? However, after thinking about it, he denied it again.
For Xinle Film and Television, it is probably not worth the effort to be a host. Then, it is not difficult to guess. Huang Yao is probably going to be supported by Xinle Film and Television.
This clearly made Huang Yao show his face with this premiere!
Is it rumored that Zhang Le wrote a film of the same type as "Crazy Stone", preparing to let Huang Yao be the starring actor not a false news, but a fact?
The same type of film of "Crazy Stone" is naturally "Crazy Racing"!
Zhang Le had actually written the script of this film for a long time, but it was always shelved. At first, Zhang Le planned to shoot it himself, but unfortunately the plan was not as good as change. Until now, Zhang Le didn't have much interest in this film.
Zhang Le is now more keen on some commercial blockbusters, especially those with shocking visual effects.
"Crazy Racing" and "Crazy Stone" were released from the same director's works, and the style was much more mature. After Zhang Le filmed "Crazy Stone", he did not continue to shoot this work with the same style, and was mainly because he was afraid of being classified by movie fans, so he filmed "Tang Bohu's Fragrance of Autumn".
It is more tragic to be characterized by a director than to be characterized by an actor. At least Zhang Le thinks so.
The director of "Crazy Stone" is Ning Jun, who has just signed a contract with Xinle Film and Television. He has imitated "Crazy Stone" before and is the most successful among many imitators.
He and Zhang Le will join forces, and this video will be highly anticipated. However, this video is still under preparation.
"Why did you remember to have a premiere this time?" Chen Ke said with a smile.
"Just go with the flow." Zhang Le smiled and said.
"When will your movie start filming? I heard that Johns urged you several times." Chen Ke said with a smile, "More than 100 million US dollars, this investment is also the best investment for Chinese directors. I feel a little envious when I think about it!"
I don’t want to know that the director who invests a lot is not a good director!
"What's there to be envious of this? This video may not necessarily be my first film to lose." Zhang Le shook his head and said.
If the films that are filmed are the ones that are the least confident, then this one belongs to this one. Of course, it is not because they have no confidence in the box office, but because they have no confidence in reputation.
"Give compensation? You are really good at joking. If you can pay, then Warner will come to you in a hurry to cooperate with you, and even sell the technology of its special effects company to you?" Chen Ke said with a smile. He naturally knew that Zhang Le was just a humble word.
Although the investment is more than 100 million US dollars, no filmmaker would think it is a movie that loses money. Even all filmmakers believe that if anyone directed it, it would not lose money. What's more, the director is Zhang Le, who has always been in a bad position in the box office.
Moreover, this movie sells not the movie itself, but the gimmicks that come from the movie.
The compensation is the compensation in Zhang Le's words. Naturally, it will not lose money, but it will lose reputation. Zhang Le's film has always had a good reputation, but he really has no confidence in this film. Especially because the script disagrees with a producer with a very market-oriented market vision in Hollywood.
Zhang Le cannot guarantee whether his "willingness" will bring about his Waterloo. To some extent, this film is his first work.
Zhang Le naturally knew that Chen Ke had misunderstood his words, and he did not explain, and there was no need to explain. He just smiled, changed the subject, and said, "I heard that Director Chen had a fancy to an online novel?"
"Oh? How do you know about this?" Chen Ke looked at Zhang Le in surprise and said, "This matter has not spread in the circle yet, right?"
"The novel you are interested in is my site." Zhang Le smiled and said, "I'm very curious, how could Director Chen pay attention to online novels? Online novels are not well-known now."
When Chen Ke heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched. He thought he was the first director to follow online novels, but he didn't expect someone to walk in front of him. Moreover, it was a long, long distance away.
"There are also excellent online novels, and they cannot be generalized. Moreover, their imagination is better than traditional novels. Many of them have adaptation value. Since you can set up a website, you will naturally see it clearly than me." Chen Ke looked at Zhang Le and said.
"What are you talking about? It's about to start." Yang Xin'er walked over and said with a smile.
"Let's talk about this topic in depth when you have time. I'll go to the backstage to prepare first." Zhang Le smiled and said to Chen Ke.
The premiere of "Shaolin Football" is no different from other things. The trailer, theme song, guest performance, the creator came on stage to talk about his feelings about the shooting, and share the embarrassing, broken and bloody things that happened during the shooting.
Of course, with Feng Lei taking the lead, many actors began to "criticize" Zhang Le. The most common complaint was that Zhang Le would rather stay at home with his wife than run around to promote this video.
Complaining about this is also a bit of a joke. It is also a pleasure to tease the newlyweds.
Huang Yao started by using humorous words to relax the entire atmosphere. After all, this film is an action film, but also a comedy film.
In this kind of atmosphere, Feng Lei and the others complained, but they continued to be funny. Instead, they thought Zhang Le was a good man.
A big man acts as a mighty man, and a good man acts as a cow and a horse. A man who can let go of his own movies and promotes his own woman will definitely be a good man. At least for that woman.
Feng Yuan rarely participated in the promotion of the film, but this premiere was not absent, and he naturally became a popular topic for everyone to pay attention to.
The playback of the last video of the premiere is the highlight. So much has been done before, but in the final analysis, it is just to build momentum for the film. What is the film itself?
The lights went out, the venue gradually became quiet, and the video began immediately.
The first one appeared was naturally the symbol of the relevant departments, and then Xinle Film and Television.
The beginning of the film is a conspiracy, with two players colluding with each other to play counterfeit balls. The serious and serious start undoubtedly laid the foreshadowing for the film. Moreover, the background music is similar to the nervous and low-key soundtrack unique to the police and gangster film.
As a result, as everyone expected, the "Golden Right Leg" received a black money and played counterfeit balls, but was beaten and his leg was broken.
Let’s bring out the story with a heart-wrenching beginning. The “golden right leg” has to go through this test of life before it can be achieved.
Feng Yuan was the first actor to appear, and directly shocked everyone. His domineering and scheming words and deeds left a deep impression on people.
Liu Zheng, who appeared, formed a sharp contrast with him. This made many people think of the beginning of the film, and the "golden right foot" stepped on Qiang Xiong's head, and they couldn't help but sigh that it's better not to be too arrogant and domineering in life!
Is this kind of a comedy film? (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
