This director is very reliable

Chapter 367 Chinese and foreign co-production (14)

"How did pants become the director of the Spring Festival Gala?"

"I heard it was an exchange."

"What in exchange?"

"I heard that it is the condition for "1942" to pass the trial..."

There are rumors in the rivers and lakes that after the filming of "1942" was finished, it could not pass the review, and CCTV helped, so he took over the hot potato of the Spring Festival Gala...

Guo Songjiang suddenly thought of something: "Hey, if you were asked to direct the Spring Festival Gala, what would you do?"

Shen Changlin shook his head: "I can't do anything!"

The fixed framework of the Spring Festival Gala and the main theme of the program will not change, no matter how awesome the director is, it will still be a CCTV-style gala.

Whether it's Korean guests or the Huayi annual meeting, these are just tasteless and have little impact on the overall breakthrough.

Not to mention the pants, even if you change to Shen Changlin, the effect will be the same!
Guo Songjiang whispered: "After I heard about "Private Customization", his contract with Huayi expired."

"What's wrong? You still want to dig him?"

Guo Songjiang nodded: "It's not impossible..."

"Don't think about it, the brothers of the Huang family can't let the pants fall down, unless the pants fall down!"

"…collapsed?"

"The era abandons a person without even saying hello!"

"...Forget it then."

Guo Songjiang didn't think that the pants were abandoned by the times, but he knew that if the pants really got mixed up with Changlin Film and Television, the Huang brothers would probably go crazy.

……

The era abandons a person without even saying hello!
It's cruel, when a director, especially a director of a commercial film, is unfamiliar with the times, he has already been abandoned!

Pants are typical. He can no longer play with black humor as he wanted at the beginning of the century.

Like a manchu Qing old man, he can still carry a cage to walk a bird, but what he said is an elegy to the Qing Dynasty.

Forget about "Only Yun Knows", but when it comes to "Northern Ruins and Southern Factions", the core is still playing Da Sammi from ten or twenty years ago.

People can't beat the years!

Not to mention the pants, even Spielberg is the same. Lao Si can also make a comeback with "Ready Player One", and more often he directs historical dramas such as "Washington Post" and "Bridge of Spies" …

They don't understand what young people want today, they can only repeat themselves in their comfort zone...

Duke Huan was as famous as the Marquis of Yin, and he often had rivalry.Huan asked Yin: "How is Qing like me?" Yin Yun said: "I have dealt with me for a long time, and I would rather be me!"

You think they can't keep up with the times, but they are quite happy, as long as the loss is not too much, this group of people can almost do whatever they want.

Let's just say that Nolan bought a big plane and made a fuss about it. How many directors can do it?
Do you really think this kind of post-production CG can't be done?
But he just took real shots, and he felt cool!
……

Arriving at the studio, the staff is still setting the scene.

Shen Changlin stared at it while listening to Guo Songjiang's report...

Mainly reporting the progress of "The Megalodon" - this project has already started the preliminary preparations, and the starring has indeed found Dwayne Johnson and Li Bingbing...

Dwayne Johnson's salary is 1400 million US dollars, which is a little more expensive than Guoda Statham.

In 02, Dwayne Johnson played the leading role in "The Scorpion King", an extra episode of the "Mummy" series, and his salary was 550 million US dollars.

And the "Fast and Furious" series he joined has shown the potential of being a global hit...

Shen Changlin thinks it's worth it, if it's a few years later, if there is no 2000 million, Dwayne Johnson will not be hired at all!
"Not surprisingly, "The Megalodon" should be released around 2015..."

"Very good, what I want is 15 years!"

Guo Songjiang suddenly mentioned "The Great Wall"...

"'The Great Wall'? The 'Great Wall' from Legendary Pictures?"

"Yes... two days ago, the new chairman of China Film Group came to me and talked about the "Great Wall" project..."

"Han Dong is down?"

"Um…"

"Did you mention asking him to be a script consultant?"

Guo Songjiang nodded, shook his head again, and said, "He is not very willing to work in a private enterprise..."

Shen Changlin waved his hand: "It's okay, let's go for a run..."

Han Shanping's network can handle many things!
If it weren't for him, the two works "The Hidden Corner" and "Everlasting Earth" might not have gone so smoothly...

Of course Guo Songjiang knew this, he continued: "The Great Wall..."

"What happened to The Great Wall?"

"La Peidong felt that this project represented the future of Chinese films, and wanted us to take over the production... After all, we worked with Warner to create "The Meg"...He thought we had production experience!"

"I have a fart experience. Didn't China Film also cooperate with France on "Wolf Totem"... You didn't agree?"

"No... I said that you need to decide this kind of thing yourself. After a while, he should contact you!"

Shen Changlin sighed: "Okay, I understand."

At this stage, many people believe that the globalization of visual effects blockbusters co-produced by Chinese and foreign countries is the future of Chinese films.

"The Great Wall" and "Wolf Totem" including "Asura", "Mystery of the Dragon Card", "God of War", and "Turandot" are basically set at this stage...

Borrowing a boat to go out to sea, with a strong promotional force, and showing it in dozens of major countries around the world is the ultimate version of this creative idea.

In a sense, it is quite right, cultural output!

It's so beautiful...

There are countless anchors whose streams are restricted on YouTube alone. They are targeting you to suppress you. What can you do?
Under this premise, do you still want to rely on movies to change the world's view of China?
Then, no one expected that the Chinese film market would develop rapidly with an increasingly nationalized attitude.

The high box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" shocked the global movie circle!

Then, Guo Fan, the director of "The Wandering Earth", said directly, "I don't care whether foreign audiences accept it, I will serve Chinese audiences first!" '

In the past, everyone believed that 'the more the nation is, the more the world', but now everyone thinks that 'first do a good job of the nation, and I don't care what happens to the world'!
Guo Songjiang knew that Shen Changlin was not interested in the "Great Wall" project, but he didn't quite understand: "I don't understand, why did we reject "The Great Wall"?"

"...Because the title of The Great Wall is too heavy...and the leading power is in the hands of Legend."

The origin of "The Great Wall" is Thomas Tull, the boss of the legendary film company. One day, he saw the majestic Great Wall of China by plane, so a heroic movie with the Great Wall as the background was born.

This is why the ultimate hero is handed over to a foreigner.

"Will it fail at the box office?"

"Very likely... who knows."

Shen Changlin didn't continue this topic, turned his head and continued to communicate with the set designer on the set of the scene...

Sun Wen and Han Qiming directed the lights on the scene.

Guo Songjiang looked at the busy Shen Changlin and the post-production team, and sighed...

Why are there so many Chinese and foreign co-production projects approved?

Apart from the fact that film companies think this route represents the future of Chinese films, many bigwigs also think so, and when they do Chinese-foreign co-productions, they get a lot of policy subsidies, and project financing is also easy to do.

But Shen Changlin was a different kind of person—he didn't belong to the traditional circle, and he got in halfway.

From the perspective of family background, Shen Changlin and his family counted up to three generations, and they did not engage in art at all!
Changlin Film and Television also dissociates from the whole circle, and has nothing to do with the sixth and fifth generations—except for A Mou.

Be a maverick and be a maverick!
