Chapter 460: What should come will not come(1/2)
So, Wu Di was surrounded by many beauties, yes, that's right, all of them were beauties, and there were so many.
It's simply overwhelming.
Wu Di thinks about it, and it seems that Zhang Feng's strategy is still appropriate. No matter what, the box office performance of the film will not be bad.
Two popular little ladies compete in the same field. This is the biggest talking point. What's more, the theme of the movie also revolves around the relationship between the two little flowers. It is a traditional plot of two women competing for one man. To put it bluntly, it can be regarded as a favorite for the majority of the audience.
theme.
In addition, there are also kung fu superstars like Zhen Ge joining the cast, which means that this movie, which is originally aimed at women, may also attract the attention of some young male audiences.
While paying attention to kung fu fighting, you can also watch beauties that are eye-catching. For viewers who want to be entertained during the Spring Festival, this is indeed a good choice.
Not to mention, the plot of the skin-changing movie is very simple, with some twists and turns, some entanglements, not much style, and it is not literary, which makes its viewing threshold very low.
Anyone can try to watch it, and with the addition of well-known actors joining the cast, it will be easier to hit the audience's choice point.
In other words, Skin Change is not the kind of movie that pretends to be high-end. It creates some atmosphere, shoots some foggy scenes, and completely messes up the narrative structure. It doesn't care about whether the audience can understand it. Anyway, who will jump out?
To criticize, just say this is art, and you lower-class people don’t understand it.
It's not my responsibility.
For a movie like this, which has a topic, a plot, and good-looking men and beautiful women, all the elements are gathered together, and it is impossible for it to be a hit on the street.
This can be predicted regardless of whether the quality is good or bad.
If the reputation is good, it goes without saying that it will become a box office hit and explode in various ways. If the reputation is not good, it doesn't matter.
Just because of this lineup, many curious viewers will hold their noses and walk into the cinema to appreciate how bad it is.
In this way, although word-of-mouth may not be guaranteed (of course, word-of-mouth is inherently magical, and the director's pursuit may very well run counter to the audience's evaluation, which is something that can only be met but cannot be sought), the box office will not be successful.
Problem.
For Zhang Feng, even though she is the daughter of a famous director and has her own halo, she can still attract some investment, purely for her father's sake.
However, after all, this is no longer the era when Lao Zhang was active. In his time, people did not pursue box office.
A good film is good, and a bad film is bad. People pursue the quality of the film and don't care how much it sells.
It was true that good films were produced frequently at that time. After all, at that time, the director's intentions were very pure, which was the expression of personal wishes, and there was no need to worry about much at all.
Therefore, this kind of film that focuses on itself and art itself is more likely to win awards, just like Lao Zhang, who won several international awards in that era.
However, the era that Xiao Zhang lives in is obviously different.
Based on her experience, it is impossible to win an international award from the beginning and thus have a pension security.
Not only her, there are very few film directors who can surpass her father's generation when looking at the world, and are even as famous as their father's generation.
This can also be fully verified. The film belongs to the director personally. Even the step-by-step instructions from the famous director father cannot express similar connotations.
This is the difference.
It is precisely because he saw this gap early that Zhang Feng found his position right from the first movie.
That is, we must not take the same route as Lao Zhang.
Anyway, she is still young, and in the next five to ten years, she is not planning to be an award-winning director of art films.
First, whether you can win the award depends not only on the director's personal level, but also on luck. There are also many off-site factors that determine the absolute award, which are completely uncontrollable.
In addition, literary and artistic films are slow to return their money, or they simply lose money, which is not very acceptable to Zhang Feng, who is just starting out.
Therefore, from the beginning, Zhang Feng aimed at commercial blockbusters. As long as it can be commercially successful, it is okay to lose a little bit of reputation.
After all, you are young, and as long as the damage is not too severe, your future investment will be far more sustainable.
To be honest, as long as the box office is good, even after one or two movies, it will be much easier for Zhang Fengla to invest than Lao Zhang.
Maybe, by then, Lao Zhang will still have to rely on his daughter!
Once you have established a foothold in commercial films and become famous, you can go back to pursuing art, pursuing self-expression, and of course, pursuing awards.
As long as the level is high, it is not difficult to do this. After all, life is a long road, and for a director, he does not actually need to have every masterpiece. Strictly speaking, almost no one can do this.
As long as a director has three or five masterpieces and one or two award-winning works, he can be called a well-known director and enjoy a high reputation at home and abroad.
From this perspective, Zhang Feng has already achieved half the success.
With this lineup and this buzz, even though the movie has not yet been filmed, let alone released, half of the box office seems to have been pocketed.
"Who's coming?"
"Who is here?"
Xiao Lin, who had been dancing around for a long time but still couldn't get to the point, made Zhang Feng come out of the recording studio to see what was going on.
The director is also anxious!
The earlier everyone arrives, the earlier the official recording can start, and the later stage of action production can be accelerated and pushed to the Spring Festival schedule.
Although Wu Di has not received any news yet, it is mainly because Gu Mei has not contacted him since the last time they met.
It seems like there is no action, but in fact, there is a lot of action.
I heard that Gu Mei had already started post-production recording, and it was not like what she and Wu Di said, that they would not call Wu Di over until the production on the skin-changing side was almost complete.
That was completely a smoke bomb set off by the old fox.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although this trick is not very clever, it did confuse Zhang Feng for a while, and at least the pace of production was slower.
During the Spring Festival of 2009, strictly speaking, the only real opponents were two movies: Changing Skin and The Master.
One relies on various traffic stars to win, and the other uses his huge size to conquer the world.
If you want to be proud of the Spring Festival, you must be ahead of the Master every step of the way!
It was precisely because of knowing this news that Zhang Feng was so anxious that he jumped up early in the morning and changed his original plan.
With this anxious mood, Zhang Feng came to the door, and what greeted her was...
"Director Zhang, I'm sorry, I'm late, I didn't waste too much time!"
"Sorry everyone, we were in such a hurry."
Who can you guess who can use such a gentle voice to apologize to everyone and act so thoughtfully and considerately?
"Sister, are you really here?"
"You are so awesome!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Wu Di rushed out and grabbed Liu Yan's hand.
too excited!
In the end, the one I can count on is Sister Liu!
"Yes, but I am already the latest one to arrive. Sorry, I really have work to do here."
At this time, several of the main creative staff also expressed that they didn't mind. Although Liu Yan said that they could start recording immediately, no matter what, they still have to give people a break, right?
Zhang Feng turned around in disappointment and said regretfully: "Why is it you? I thought it was the third power!"
Liu Yan looked around and found no sign of Ci Fang. She didn't mind and said directly: "What?"
"The power hasn't arrived yet?"
"I heard that she had already arrived in the capital to join you. It was also after hearing this that I stepped up the filming and rushed here in advance."
Good guy, the most diligent and dedicated member of the cast of Dare to Change Skin is Liu Yan. No one else can compare with her.
"Not yet."
"Jingjing, I heard that Cifang went to talk to you. You are back. Where is she?"
When Zhang Feng suddenly mentioned her name, Jingjing became very nervous. She sat upright with her head raised and her attitude was particularly pious.
As a result, this is what we waited for, which is a bit regretful.
Who leaked all these secrets?
The mouth is too fast!
It's Wu Di, it must be him. No one knows what happened just now except him!
Tsk tsk...
Han Jingjing glanced at Wu Di, her expression was so special that she couldn't explain it in words.
What about fair competition, about not favoring one party in particular, and about being fair to both parties?
In fact, he is not Zhang Feng’s puppet? He listens to her in everything and even takes the initiative to reveal information to her. Look at his dog-legged appearance!
Being stared at by her like this, Wu Di simply died unjustly.
"I didn't say that!"
No, even in spite of Zhang Feng's cold face, Wu Di had to quickly refute the rumors, otherwise who would he become?
She seems like a sissy who has no hair on her lips and can’t do anything well!
"Who is that?"
