What should I do if my girlfriend is famous and doesn't dump me?

Chapter 394 Without Zhang Shisan's schedule, what can we watch

Monster Hunt!
Wen Rui didn't think too much after reading the title of the film, but couldn't wait to flip through it.

The story of the film mainly tells the story of the protagonist Song Tianyin who was pregnant unexpectedly and gave birth to the cute demon Huba. In order to protect his "son", he and the celestial master Huo Xiaolan fought against the demon world together.

The story seems simple enough.

The background is that humans and all things coexist, including demons.

However, humans wanted to monopolize the world, so humans declared war on the demons and drove them into the deep mountains and swamps.

Wen Rui just flipped through the pages, but his eyes became brighter and brighter!

That's the movie he wanted to make.

His boss actually wrote such a story, and even "shelved" the script?
What a waste!
Wen Rui is a little lucky now, he really wanted to say "I am interested in all your scripts".

Whoever gives a script, he doesn't choose.

Fortunately, it is not so "flattering".

Otherwise, wouldn't I miss this script.

so far so good!
Wen Rui doesn't like being flattered, and Zhang Yu doesn't like being flattered either.

"Can I direct this movie?"

Wen Rui looked at Zhang Yu eagerly.

Although he already knew the answer, he still wanted to confirm it.

He couldn't put it down.

"Take it back and study it first!" Zhang Yu said, "Come and discuss with me when the time comes."

Wen Rui nodded and left with the script.

He is naturally familiar with the "process", after all, he is also the one who has filmed Zhang Shisan's script.

It has to be said that he is also the least famous director among the directors who have filmed Zhang Shisan's script.

The box office of the original version of "Monster Hunt" was more than [-] billion.

For the time, it was absolutely amazing.

Zhang Yu is confident that as long as Wen Rui doesn't smash the film, the box office of this film will definitely be higher than the original version.

It's not just a question of market potential, but also the box office appeal of the creator.

Wen Rui's domestic box office appeal is not weak now, not to mention Zhang Shisan's bonus as a screenwriter.

As for foreign countries
It will probably be much higher than the original.

Distribution channels are better.

Zhang Shisan's overseas box office appeal is also very good now.

After May [-]st, the summer vacation will come soon.

It's just that there are no domestic blockbusters released this summer.

Those released as "blockbusters" are now mid-range productions at best, and the quality is really not that great.

This makes many movie fans a little uncomfortable.

They always feel that something is missing in the summer vacation.

But at this time, a topic came up immediately, which made everyone suddenly realize.

"How did you spend your summer vacation without Zhang Shisan?"

Together, these topics gradually evolved into "Without Zhang Shisan's schedule, what can we watch?", "What are Chinese movies without Zhang Shisan?", "Without Zhang Shisan"

And it's even hotter.

Without Zhang Shisan, what will happen to Chinese movies?
This topic has caused quite a heated discussion.

Zhang Shisan's contribution to Chinese films is beyond doubt.

As for this topic, after a heated discussion among the people, they suddenly realized that without Zhang Shisan, the Huaguo film market would still be ravaged by Hollywood movies at will.

In the face of Hollywood movies, Chinese movies are probably still powerless to resist.

Not to mention making Chinese films famous all over the world and entering the North American market in the back garden of Hollywood?

And those films with considerable international influence seem to be produced by Zhang Shisan.

With his own strength, Zhang Shisan undoubtedly made Chinese films take a big step forward.

"Your influence is enviable!" Zhang Hang smiled and looked at Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu followed up the post-production of "Avatar", so he naturally took the time to watch "Godzilla" and "Pirates".

The post-production of "Godzilla" progressed faster, but it was very different from the film in Zhang Yu's impression.

Added a lot of suspense.

Which one is better or worse can only be tested by the market.

However, the special effects obviously beat the original a few streets.

As for the "Pirates" movie, it's even more different from the original.

It seems to give people the feeling that it has nothing to do with the original.

If you have to talk about the relationship between the two, it is "adaptation"!

Zhang Yu is now pondering whether to write the original script and let Lion King Films make it.

At most, the adaptation copyright fee from Lion King Films will be charged at that time.

It seemed like a good idea.

Hollywood adaptation of Chinese films.
This is simply a genius idea.

In the previous life, one movie directly made money twice.

"It's just hype from the fans, it's just hype from the media." Zhang Yu shook his head and said, "Does Director Zhang still take it seriously? Without me, Zhang Shisan, wouldn't the world turn the same?"

"I quite agree with what they said. You have indeed made Chinese films go abroad and played an inestimable role in the development of Chinese films." Zhang Hang said, "Besides, whether you deserve it or not, at least it shows your Films, even films written by screenwriters, have an astonishing impact."

"You don't have a good schedule, and movie fans are not used to it without your movie being released." Zhang Hang smiled, and continued, "I'm the first to hear of such a thing after living such a long life."

"Without Zhang Shisan, there would definitely be Li Shisan and Wang Shisan." Zhang Yu said, "With the development of the domestic economy, the potential of the film market has exploded, and Huaguo Films is backed by the world's second largest film market. It will happen."

Is it a matter of course?
Zhang Hang shook his head.

There is only one Zhang Shisan, and in his opinion, it may be difficult to find one in a hundred years.

His creative talent is so against the sky.

With the huge market support for Chinese-language films, it is indeed a matter of time before they go abroad.

But it is so easy to catch up with Hollywood.

I don't know how long it will take to go abroad, but Zhang Shisan definitely moved this time much earlier.

Just look at the performance of other Chinese-language films abroad.

Which one did better?
The waves didn't hit a few, so how did you get out of the door?

"Bad movies are gradually disappearing in the domestic market. This is undoubtedly an excellent thing for Chinese-language movies." Zhang Hang said, "The major film and television companies and investors will also pay attention to the quality of movies. Take bad movies. Gone are the days of film making money. And this, you played a huge part in it."

Is there still a market for bad movies?
There must still be.

But a movie with a high box office will definitely not be a bad movie.

But Zhang Yu raised the height of this box office a lot.

A good movie with a box office of [-] million.

And a bad movie can have a box office of [-] million.

So who will bother to make a good movie?
But if the box office of a good movie can reach [-] billion, but the box office of a bad movie is still only [-] million.

Then everyone will spend their minds on making a good movie.

"Director Zhang praises me so highly, isn't he afraid that I will be blown down by the strong wind?" Zhang Yu shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's not mention this. In fact, I also have works released during the summer vacation for a few years. It's only in mid-August It’s gone, the promotion has not started yet.”

Zhang Yu said with a smile.

It is estimated that it will not invest too much.

"Not selected yet, haven't heard of it?" Zhang Hang reacted immediately, and said, "Where in Hollywood?"

Domestically, he is well-informed.

Abroad is obviously much worse.

He hadn't heard of it. It was probably a Hollywood movie.

After all, Zhang Shisan also has a film and television company over there.

Zhang Yu nodded.

"Forrest Gump" was released in North America in mid-July, and then it was released in other countries and regions one after another.

The domestic release is relatively late.

This is a result of discussions with Huaying Group.

Or it is an unwritten rule.

Even if Hollywood movies are released in the summer, it will usually be at the end of the summer, not at the peak.

As for the National Day and Spring Festival files, basically there will be no Hollywood movies released.

This is a kind of protection for domestic films.

Although "Forrest Gump" is not a Hollywood blockbuster, it is also a Hollywood movie.

Even if it is a movie invested by Chinese capital.

Even the screenwriter is a Chinese.

Zhang Yu had no opinion on this.

Domestic film and television companies can have their own theaters, but they are not eligible to import foreign films.

The film "Forrest Gump" was just used by Zhang Yu to break the decline of Lion King Films. Its main theater is in North America, and its secondary theater is Oscar.

It would be great if the film could be shown abroad.

After all, this film is "very American".

In mid-July, the film was first released in North America.

This film, which beat films like "The Shawshank Redemption" at the Oscars, did not start the box office amazingly.

With a box office of more than [-] million, it ranked third in the single-day box office list.

However, as word of mouth fermented, the box office counterattacked all the way.

Three days after its release, the film topped the North American single-day box office chart.

In the North American market, the word-of-mouth box office has a double harvest.

The kindness and warmth shown in the film touched the best things in the hearts of the audience.

The film also shows beautiful emotions such as honesty, trustworthiness, seriousness, bravery, and affection.

Among them, the male protagonist Forrest Gump is portrayed in the film as the embodiment of virtue, honest, trustworthy, serious, brave and emphasizing feelings. Face your life.

He concentrated his only wisdom, faith, and courage in one point, and he didn't care about anything, he only knew to run on the road non-stop according to his intuition.

The shaping of this image subverts the heroic image in the normal world, runs counter to traditional concepts, and is strongly anti-traditional and anti-mainstream.

Forrest Gump is a young child occupying the body of an adult, a sage-level fool, an ordinary person who transcends reality, and a small person who represents the personality of the nation.

Tom Zemeckis transformed Forrest Gump from a historical projection into a real, flesh-and-blood person.

His acting skills are recognized by everyone, even critical film critics.

The film won the single-day box office champion in North America, and it was also released in other countries and regions.

Perhaps the film promotes the mainstream consciousness of a certain era in the United States, which is not liked by fans in some countries and regions.

However, judging from the response after its release in North America, the purpose of the film has been achieved.

A "Forrest Gump" not only stopped the decline of Lion King Pictures, but also reversed it.

I believe that after the release of "Harry Potter", Lion King Films will be able to turn around completely, give out upgrades again, and rise again.

And when Zhang Yu's superhero movie world is on the right track, Lion King Pictures will inevitably rise strongly, and no one can stop it.

"Your movie will be released at the end of the year?"

With her big belly on her back, Yang Ruoxue casually asked about Zhang Yu.

She was pregnant with twins, and her stomach was naturally bigger than that of ordinary pregnant women.

"Ok!"

Zhang Yu nodded.

"Why isn't it in the Spring Festival file in China?" Yang Ruoxue said, "Make way for Director Zhang or Director Chen's film?"

"The films of the two of them will not be screened during the Spring Festival." Zhang Yu said, "There is an animation film released by Shisan Film and Television during the Spring Festival."

"Then when are you going to Hollywood next year?" Yang Ruoxue said.

After "Avatar", Zhang Yu is going to Hollywood.

Yang Ruoxue naturally knew about this.

Originally, her focus also shifted abroad.

Pregnant now.
"Let's talk about it when the child is older!" Zhang Yu said, "This matter is not urgent."

Yang Ruoxue nodded and did not continue the topic.

Based on what she knew about Zhang Yu, how could she not guess it?
""Forrest Gump" is released in China, are you involved in the promotion?" Yang Ruoxue continued to ask.

"I still have to participate in the promotion." Zhang Yu nodded and said.

This film, whether it is a director or an actor, has little box office appeal in China.

Zhang Yucai is the film's biggest selling point in China.

If he didn't participate in some publicity, it would be unavoidable.

However, there wasn't much publicity for the film.

To put it bluntly, I am not optimistic about the box office of this film in China.

If it weren't for the name of Zhang Shisan as the screenwriter, it is estimated that whether it will be released or not will be a problem.

And so is it.

"Forrest Gump" was released in China, and it did not arouse any movie-watching craze like other films written by him.

The movie is undoubtedly a good movie.

Word of mouth is also very good.

But obviously it doesn't meet the appetite of many domestic movie fans.

However, no one questioned the film.

Anyone can see that this movie was made for fans in North America.

It can be seen from the box office over there.

And the global box office of the film is also very amazing.

North America won $[-] million, while other countries and regions in Europe and Asia won a total of nearly $[-] million.

Huaguo has more than one billion, and it is more than [-] million when converted into US dollars.

The global box office has accumulated more than one billion US dollars.

The box office is amazing.

After all, the film investment is less than [-] million US dollars.

Is the domestic box office of more than one billion yuan low?

Compared with other films written by Zhang Shisan today, it is undoubtedly low.

Among the films released last year and the year before, which film is less than several billion?

"Forrest Gump" was released in China for nearly a month, and at this time Ningyuan's "National Day" promotion has entered a white-hot stage.

After the title of the film was revealed, there was almost no suspense when the film would be released.

However, other film and television companies had long been prepared and chose to avoid this film without hesitation.

The screenwriter Zhang Shisan is not easy to mess with.

The director Ning Yuan didn't want to mess with him either.

The two cooperated again, and naturally no one wanted to run into each other.

What's more, this movie is also starring Zhao Chen and Liu Bo, two actors with great box office appeal.

Therefore, the films released on National Day, let alone competitive films, did not even have an impact on "National Day".

Not without other new releases, of course.

It's just that there are no big productions released.

"National Day" also won nearly [-]% of the film schedule.

A ride to the dust.

Films abroad will be released one after another, but the film schedule is not very high.

Ning Yuan is not well-known abroad.

At least far less than Zhang Hang and others.
