Chapter 192
Zhang Yu is the biggest investor in the movie "Crazy Stone", but he is not the only one.

Wansheng Film and Television is also an investment producer.

Maybe the investment is not much, but there are some conveniences.

Otherwise, if "Feng Shen" hadn't been promoted, how could a low-budget film win [-]% of the film schedule.

Even if there are no blockbuster movies released in the same period.

Even if the blockbuster "Fengshen" was moved up, "Crazy Stone" still got [-]% of the film schedule.

It is conceivable that Wansheng Film and Television played a role in it.

If there is no investment from Wansheng Film and Television, it would be very good to get [-]% of the initial production of this film.

Leaning against the big tree is good for the coolness.

"Crazy Stone" press conference begins.

The number of media reporters who came here is really quite a lot.

Is it for the film itself, or for Zhang Yu himself?
Maybe both.

However, no matter what their purpose is, it is a good thing to come.

Propaganda is not afraid of too many reporters, but of few reporters.

Zhang Yu is naturally experienced in this kind of publicity activities.

This experience did not come from "Buried Alive", but from Xu Sen's "Jianghu" and Zhang Hang's "The Great Wall".

The process of such promotional activities is mostly similar.

In the end, there is no doubt that they are interviewed by the media.

Among the actors of "Crazy Stone", the reputation is not very good, at least it is difficult to compare with Zhang Yu.

This is also the reason why Ning Yuanfei wants to pull him to promote.

When it came to media interviews, Zhang Yu became the first choice of reporters.

"Mr. Zhang, it is rumored on the Internet that "Fengshen" was promoted for this "Crazy Stone" invested by your screenwriter. What do you think about this?" A reporter asked, ""Crazy Stone" is a low-budget movie. , can it withstand the impact of the blockbuster "Fengshen"?"

"You shouldn't ask me why "Fengshen" was moved up and whether it came for "Crazy Stone"." Zhang Yu said lightly, "However, although our film is only a low-budget film, I am confident that it will It will shine brightly."

What does Zhang Yu mean?
He doesn't seem to deny that "Fengshen" is aimed at "Crazy Stone"!

Yes, it is not denied.

He even asked everyone to ask why "Feng Shen" was promoted and why "Crazy Stone" was targeted.

Well, that's what he meant.

Not too.

And what did he mean by the last sentence?
That is to say, Orange Media's blockbuster "Fengshen" cannot suppress the light of "Crazy Stone".

It might even be overshadowed by the glare of Crazy Stone.

Zhang Shisan is so confident.

Where does his confidence come from?
"Mr. Zhang thinks "Crazy Stone" will be better than the blockbuster "Fengshen"?"

A reporter asked.

Did they get it wrong?
If you are wrong, you are wrong!

Zhang Yu naturally knew that the media had misunderstood what he said earlier.

This is what he wants.

Propaganda, if you don’t create topics, how can the effect of publicity be better?

"How is it better?" Zhang Yu said, "Word of mouth, or box office?"

"The two films are of different genres, how do we compare them?" Zhang Yu continued, ""Crazy Stone" can make back its money at the box office if it exceeds [-] million, but if the investment in "Fengshen" really breaks [-] million, how can it return if the box office is less than [-] billion? Book?"

According to the propaganda of "Fengshen", the investment has exceeded [-] million.

As for how much, it is estimated that only they themselves know.

However, Zhang Yu felt that there should be moisture.

This kind of thing is very common in the circle.

Create momentum!

Just like "Feng Shen" is still playing the gimmick of hitting the international market!

Those media reporters obviously wanted to put the two films together to make matters worse.

Zhang Yu was naturally happy to see the success and cooperated very well.

The whole press conference seemed very harmonious.

Of course, Zhang Yu would not foolishly regard this publicity event as his personal show, and would still shift the topic to Ning Yuan and other actors in the film from time to time.

After a press conference was over, the media reported that "Crazy Stone" and "Fengshen" were more closely linked.

In terms of publicity, "Crazy Stone" can be said to have taken advantage of it.

However, this is not without risks.

Just like today, there are constant voices of ridicule on the Internet.

A small-budget comedy film dares to be compared with a blockbuster film with an investment of more than [-] million yuan.

Why?
Where is your face?

In particular, the creator of "Fengshen" showed extreme disdain for "Crazy Stone", which undoubtedly made this kind of voice more and more.

Among them, the director Feng Yongqing taunted Zhang Yu and Ning Yuan even more.

They also understand movies?

It's just that I was lucky enough to make a movie with a good reputation, so I thought I knew movies, and I felt that I was great.

This undoubtedly makes each other more gunpowder.

Of course, this also caused a lot of controversy.

For example, Feng Yongqing said that Zhang Yu and Ning Yuan didn't understand movies, and even mentioned "Buried Alive".

What he said is nothing more than that if he is asked to make such a film, it will definitely be better than Ning Yuan.

As for Zhang Yu's performance in the film: his acting skills are barely, a little exaggerated.

Changing any actor, taking a few more shots, can also achieve that effect.

The success of the movie "Buried Alive" is purely their luck.

And such a person can't go very far.

Zhang Shisan should sing his songs well.

This is the most controversial.

After all, this movie was recognized by the Golden Dragon Award.

Ning Yuan and Zhang Yu were also shortlisted for the Golden Dragon Award for this film.

Even if you didn't win the prize in the end, what right do you, Feng Yongqing, have to question "Buried Alive" and Ning Yuan and Zhang Shisan?

Feng Yongqing is a first-line director in China and has won many awards.

His box office appeal is also strong.

He can also be regarded as the head director of Orange Media.

However, the mouth is very smelly, well-known inside and outside the circle.

When Zhang Yu was asked about this, he only said: You should ask the judges of the Golden Dragon Awards what they think of this?
Of course, these are all for later.

After the publicity conference was over, Zhang Yu directly called Wang Mei.

Wang Mei naturally supported the point of screening.

As for the film, as the chief producer, she naturally watched it in advance.

She is still very confident in the word-of-mouth of this film.

After leaving the press conference, Zhang Yu went straight to Yanjing Satellite TV.

He also has a talk show to record.

The reason for accepting it is naturally to promote the movie.

Later, he will also participate in the recording of "Peak Showdown" and "Happy Saturday" with the cast.

If he doesn't follow, the crew of "Crazy Stone" may not have the opportunity to promote on the two popular shows.

His presence on these two shows is also considered a deal.

Yanjing Satellite TV's talk show ratings are still good.

Of course, it is only possible.

Many TV stations have talk shows, Yanjing Satellite TV's "Heart to Heart" program is not the most popular among many talk shows, but it is also in the top five.

Those who are distracted may not necessarily be popular.

The topic of this program is probably not as good as that of "Questions and Answers".

Of course, "Wonderful Quiz" has a stronger entertainment circle.

But isn't this the age of entertainment to death?

Perhaps, this is one of the reasons why the program "Join the Heart" is not popular.

There are also human factors in accepting this show.

Whether it's Zhang Yu or other guests, obviously they won't "talk" with the show.

Variety show recording, which one is the easiest?

In Zhang Yu's opinion, it is not a talk show.

Of course, if the program is full of "maliciousness", that's another matter.

In talk shows, it is not uncommon for guests to be embarrassed by the host's questions, or even embarrassed, unable to get off the stage.

Zhang Yu was naturally not afraid of this.

What's more, the program "Talking Heart" has no "maliciousness" towards him.

Before recording, the program group also communicated with it.

What taboo?
What to ask, what not to ask, what to ask
What must be asked?

Needless to say, he came this time to promote the movie.

If you don't ask relevant questions, can I forcibly change the subject?

The recording process of the program was very enjoyable.

Among them, "Crazy Stone" was mentioned many times, and Zhang Yu was naturally happy.

Having nothing to say all night, Zhang Yu and Yang Ruoxue went home to see Mr. Yang the next day.

Yang's mare, Sheng Lan, was also there.

I don't know if it's a good time to rest, or I just want to meet my daughter whom I haven't seen for a long time, and my future son-in-law.

Not only he was there, Yang Ruoxue's grandfather Ma Shiji was also there.

It's just that the mood of the two old people doesn't seem to be very good.

Especially Mr. Yang was even more angry.

"What's wrong?" Yang Ruoxue asked.

She thought about it, maybe they didn't make the old man angry!
Isn't it time to come back today?
"I was pissed off by a TV show." Ma Shenglan said with a wry smile, "I was just scolded."

"Is it wrong to train you?" Mr. Yang said, "What did you see in that TV series? It's just a joke! If the War of Resistance was that simple, we would have fought for so many years and killed so many people?"

When Zhang Yu heard it, he more or less guessed it.

The old man was pissed off by those anti-Japanese dramas.

As for why you will be scolded?
Ma Shenglan works in the Ministry of Culture, so she is somewhat related.

Of course, there are some injustices.

There are many reasons for the proliferation of anti-Japanese dramas.What's more, Ma Shenglan is not in charge of reviewing that part.

Mr. Yang participated in that war, even though he was still young at that time.

But the cruelty of the war undoubtedly left a deep impression on him.

The war was hard for him.

Zhang Yu would be shocked when he saw those anti-Japanese houses, let alone someone like Mr. Yang.

It's strange if you are not angry.

Anti-Japanese drama?
Speaking of this type of TV series, the first thing that comes to Zhang Yu’s mind is not any classic, but the bloody "Thunder in the Crotch", "Bun Bomb", and "Hairspray" and "Sofa".
If you say which type of TV series has the most, it's probably not the most anti-Japanese dramas.

And this kind of drama is flooded with thunder dramas.

This is true of both worlds.

In the previous life, there were many Lei dramas, but there were also classics.

For example, "Bright Sword", "My Leader My Team", "Snow Leopard" and so on.

Do you want to move here?
"Ding!"

Um?Zhang Yu was startled, the system was triggered again.

"Make an anti-Japanese drama to satisfy the veterans of the Anti-Japanese War, and the career has changed. First, if it fails, I will give ten sets of Yanjing Courtyard as a consolation. Second, if it is successful, I will give the screenwriter proficiency as a consolation."

Make an anti-Japanese drama?

With this idea in mind, you gave me a "task"?

Satisfying veterans?

It's easy to fail, but it's hard not to fail when filming a bloody anti-Japanese drama.

Ten sets of courtyard houses are worth a lot!

How much is the most valuable courtyard house in Yanjing?

Zhang Yu really didn't know this.

However, breaking one billion should be very possible.

Ten sets, that's tens of billions.

What about normal?
It should break through [-] million anyway.

Ten sets, that's over a billion.

Heartbeat?
heart.

However, if he was asked to make an anti-Japanese drama, Zhang Yu still had a lot of resistance in his heart.

If he really made such a thunder drama, it might become a big black spot for him.

Of course, Zhang Yu was very excited about the reward for success.

The screenwriter is proficient, and the temptation is not small.

Zhang Yu also used countless classics in his previous life as a reference, so there is not much demand for this skill?

Do not!
His needs are greater.

For example, countless Hollywood movies have been adapted into Chinese movies. If there are screenwriters who are proficient in this skill, it will undoubtedly be easier and more secure.

Among other things, it took him a lot of effort to adapt "Buried Alive", and in the end he even directly changed his original intention.

His original intention was to change the protagonist's background to a Chinese.

Finally gave up and set it as a Chinese American.

What if a screenwriter is proficient in this skill?

In order for Chinese-language films to go international, it is undoubtedly indispensable for screenwriters to be proficient in this skill.

Of course, Zhang Yu can also learn.

His current learning ability is still good.

But where is the systematic empowerment to come properly.

Learning, there is always something missing.

What's more, when did you learn to be worthy of the word "proficient"?
Can a teacher in the screenwriting department of the Film Academy afford it?

Can those who won the Golden Phoenix Award or the Golden Dragon Award for Best Screenplay deserve it?
I'm afraid not necessarily.

Zhang Shisan, who is proficient in this screenwriter, must decide.

Zhang Yu wanted to succeed again.

So how about filming the anti-Japanese drama?
The first thing that flashed into Zhang Yu's mind was "Bright Sword", followed by "Snow Leopard".

The words of "Bright Sword".
Does Zhang Yu have a suitable role in this TV series?

Li Yunlong definitely can't.

What about Zhao Gang?
It doesn't seem very suitable either.

Could it be that he starred in the monk Wei Dayong, and then received a box lunch in more than a dozen episodes.

But that's a supporting role. It may not be a good thing for him to play now.

After all, the person who almost won the Golden Dragon Award for best actor turned around and ran to play a supporting role in an anti-Japanese drama.

Isn't this driving backwards?
If you don't star in it, but just invest in the screenwriter, is it considered filming?
After all, the system is to "shoot an anti-Japanese drama", rather than screenwriters investing in an anti-Japanese drama.

And "Snow Leopard"?

It must be no problem for Zhang Yu to play Zhou Weiguo.

However, Zhang Yu did not make a decision right away.

He also didn't intend to just get the script out.

He is going to check the relevant information first.

Although both films are considered "fictional" stories, many things are obviously based on historical evidence.

For example, what if the weapon model, or even the name, is different in the two worlds?
Copy it completely, isn't that a joke?
"You guys are going to make movies in the future, you are not allowed to accept this kind of TV series."

Yang Ruoxue comforted Mr. Yang a few words, Mr. Yang seemed to be a little bit uneasy, then looked at Zhang Yu and the two, and exhorted.

He can't control others.

But if his granddaughter and future grandson-in-law took pictures of the anti-Japanese god level
He can't afford to lose that man.

Zhang Yu and Yang Ruoxue quickly agreed.

Or, after the script is finished, show it to the old man first?
This idea flashed in Zhang Yu's mind.
