my movie years

Chapter 146 Zhang Hao and Guo Fan each have a project

Compared with the previous Golden Horse Awards, the controversy caused by this Golden Horse Awards is relatively small.

"Sohu.com" commented: "This year's Golden Horse Awards, with a geographically balanced award, realized the support it advertised for 'filmmakers who have made outstanding contributions to Chinese film culture'.

The comprehensive affirmation of literary and artistic films further proves the Golden Horse Awards' encouragement of film quality and adherence to its own review standards.

In a certain sense, the presentation of the Golden Horse Awards this year has tried to achieve 'happy everyone'.

The division of awards between films from the three regions, on the one hand, shows their different strengths and common progress, but on the other hand, it is unavoidable to be suspected of seeking geographical balance. "

"Sina Entertainment" also commented: "The result of this year's Golden Horse Awards, although it was held in the Taiwan area, and the judging panel is mainly composed of people from Taiwan's film culture, it is undoubtedly a less controversial one.

Wei Desheng's "Sedek Bale" won the best feature film and the audience's vote for best film. Although the former has the meaning of praise, encouragement and support for local films, it is also reasonable for the Golden Horse Awards.

And losing to Xu Anhua in the best director is also an absolute affirmation of Xu Anhua's director.

In addition, the Golden Horse Awards once again played the fine tradition of rewarding excellent Chinese-language films, which promoted the development of Chinese-language films to a certain extent. "

Although the award itself did not cause any controversy, Zhang Hao caused a lot of trouble when he was interviewed backstage when he was asked by Taiwan media whether he would feel ashamed after winning the award.

The main reason is that some media in Baodao think that Zhang Hao doesn't know how to be humble at all, doesn't respect his predecessors at all, and don't feel ashamed. They suggest that the Golden Horse Awards should ban all Zhang Hao's works from now on.

In addition, regarding Zhang Hao's family statement, some green bodies in Baodao disagreed very much, refuted Zhang Hao's answer, and said: "Who is a family with you?"

This kind of news undoubtedly caused quite a stir, and the media in the mainland recognized the fairness and openness of the Golden Horse Awards very much.

And Baodao took advantage of Zhang Hao's incident to criticize the Golden Horse Awards.

If it weren't for the lack of controversy in the selection of this year's Golden Horse Awards, it is estimated that the Taiwan media would have scolded it a long time ago.If Zhang Hao wins the best director, it is estimated that both the Golden Horse Award and him will be sprayed bloody.

Zhang Hao has always said in front of the media that the movie should return to the movie itself and make things about the movie simpler.

But obviously, this cannot satisfy Zhang Hao's wish.

In the mainland, the mainstream media is okay, they are basically peacemakers, and most of them make peace.But the online media didn't take that much into consideration, and following the Strait, they started a war of words with the opposite Baodao media.

Most of the media on Hong Kong Island maintain a neutral attitude because the matter has nothing to do with them. Only a few media are fishing in troubled waters.

At this time, all the celebrity guests have shrunk their heads, including Zhang Hao.

Because it is obviously very inappropriate to say a few words, and it is more likely to cause a bigger storm.

Logically speaking, as a reborn person, Zhang Hao shouldn't be immature in his speech, just playing sloppy with the mud.

However, as a director with a temper, Zhang Hao couldn't bear to be provoked by Taiwan media when he was happy to win the award.

Besides, the question about the family was asked by the headquarter reporter, so he can't say that it's not a family, can he?
Pick the soft persimmons and pinch them. You can't pinch the reporters from the main station, so you have to pinch those green bodies.

I won the award as well, so let the media fight with each other.After Zhang Hao returned to the capital, he acted like a tortoise and didn't plan to respond.

A total of two films were shot this year, and the team did not have a good rest throughout the year. Zhang Hao gave the team a long vacation, and did not plan to arrange any work for them until after the Chinese New Year next year.

However, some people in the team went to take on jobs from other crews, and Zhang Hao didn't stop him. There was nothing wrong with earning more money, as long as everyone could get together when he started the project.

The media on both sides continued to quarrel, and some foreign media even paid attention to it, and then asked questions at a regular press conference.

The spokesperson once again reiterated the position of a family, and refuted those unscrupulous media who took the opportunity to hype.

Seeing that there was a real fire at the top, the media on both sides stopped.

Invited by the National Teacher, Zhang Hao participated in the premiere ceremony of "Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling".Unlike other films whose premieres are held in Beijing or Shanghai, it is very appropriate for this film to be held in Jinling.

When the movie premiered, Guoshi took the main creators of the crew to the memorial hall to pay a silent tribute.

The lead actor, Christian Bale, couldn't come because he was busy with filming.However, the premiere of Guoshi's movies has never lacked stars.

Before the premiere ceremony, there was a small red carpet ceremony. Considering the atmosphere of the film, it was specially replaced with a black carpet.

Zhang Hao was alone, wearing a Dior suit bought by Da Mi Mi, and quickly walked across the black carpet, ignoring the reporter's call for him to pose.

"Xiao Zhang, you are here." The national teacher shook hands with Zhang Hao.

"Of course, I will attend the premiere of your movie." Zhang Hao smiled.

"Haha, I heard that you are aiming for an Oscar nomination?" the national teacher asked in a low voice.

"Huh?" Zhang Hao was greatly surprised: "How do you know?"

"I'm an Oscar judge, can I not know?" The national teacher said with pride.

"Are you still a judge?" Zhang Hao was even more surprised now.

"Look at what you said, of course I'm a judge. I received the Oscar voting letter. Your "The Undertaker" is on the list. I voted for you." The national teacher said, winking at Zhang Hao Eye.

"Thank you so much. If you said it earlier, I would come to visit you." Zhang Hao said with a smile.

"It's not just me," the teacher added, "I've also greeted Ziyi, Gong Li, and the others, and I'll vote for you, but Chen Gezi, you can say it yourself, he is also an Oscar judge."

The national teacher is also aware of the conflict between Chen Gezi and Zhang Hao, but the third master can't resolve this kind of thing, and he can't say anything.

Zhang Hao smiled, without any hope, and asked Chen Gezi to vote for himself.

Even if Chen Gezi puts down his prejudice and plans to vote for himself, his mischievous wife will definitely not let him.

Zhang Yu's son is so promising, it's no wonder Mrs. Chen Gezi is happy.

In fact, there are less than [-] Chinese judges who are Oscar judges, including Lu Yan, Chen Chong, Wu Junmei, Chen Gezi, Wu Baige, Gu Changwei, Yang Ziqiong, Li An, International Zhang, Wong Kar Wai, Li Lianlian, Cheng Long and others.

Among them, Lu Yan and International Chapter, Li An and Guoshi, and Brother Cheng Long and Li Lianlian are all lifelong Oscar judges.

The others were invited to participate in the selection that year.

Of course, if you don't vote for many years, you will be disqualified as a judge by the Oscar Film Arts and Academy Jury Committee.Before voting for Zhang Hao's movie, Guoshi hadn't voted for six or seven years.

There are less than 100 Chinese judges, even if they vote for Zhang Hao, it will not affect the overall situation.What's more, Chen Gezi would not vote for Zhang Hao [-]%.

There are more than 5000 Oscar judges. I heard that this year the number has increased to more than 6000, most of whom are North American and European filmmakers.

As long as one-fifth of the votes are for Zhang Hao, there is great hope of winning the best foreign language film.

Knowing from the National Teacher that he is on the list, although the final nomination list has not yet been announced, Zhang Hao is relieved that it is very safe to be nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

However, it is still a bit difficult to replicate the path of "The Undertaker" winning the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film in its previous life.After all, Zhang Hao is a Chinese director, not a film made by his younger brother.

Moreover, because the Golden Horse Awards also caused some turmoil, in the opinion of some judges, Zhang Hao may be a little bit wrong.

After the premiere, "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" officially started its theater tour.

Unlike most Hollywood films, which like to release their first weekends on Fridays, Chinese-language films seem to move forward to Wednesday or Thursday.

The same is true for "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", which will be officially released on December 15th.

Of course, choosing this date for release is also due to special historical reasons, which happen to cover the following anniversaries.

The film earned 1740.8 million box office on the first day, 3294.1 million on the second day on Friday, 4919.6 million on Saturday, and 4405.3 million on Sunday.

In the first week, it scored a total of 1.43 million box office, and successfully won the weekly box office champion.

After the word-of-mouth hit of "Three Shots Surprise" and the low-cost production of "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree", Guoshi once again returned to commercial production with extraordinary power.

The word-of-mouth of the film is also good. As a film about historical wars, Guoshi performed very well.

On the same day, "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate", directed by Mr. Xu and starring Li Lian Zhou Xun and Chen Kun, was released, and it scored 1.34 million in the first week, ranking second on the weekly box office list.

Zhou Xun has been very successful recently. The literary film "The Undertaker" starring in the film has a box office of over [-] million, and now there is another "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate", and it looks like the box office will not be very low.

The box office and word-of-mouth are blooming across the board, and Zhou Xun has a vague tendency to replace International Zhang as the No.1 movie actress of the Mesozoic Era.

Next year's weekly newsletter will also have "The Great Magician" and "Painted Skin 2", which will be even more powerful.

In contrast, the younger Da Mi Mi has fallen behind Zhou Xun's momentum.However, Da Mi Mi, who is fully blooming in movies and TV dramas, is now not as famous as Zhou Xun, but the popularity is quite different.

What is worth mentioning here is the new film "Legend of Hongmen Banquet" released by Sister Shenxian on November 29th.

It's a pity that the film's reputation is mediocre, and it only won 7304.1 million box office in the first week. Although it is still in theaters, it is difficult to exceed 1.5 million box office.

Originally, this year, the fans of Sister Shenxian and the fans of Damaimi fought a lot of verbal battles. The fans of Sister Shenxian fell into a disadvantage because of Da Mi Mi's excellent business performance.

Now because of the poor box office of "Legend of Hongmen Banquet", the fans of Sister Shenxian are even more embarrassed.

The combined box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" and "Legend of the Hongmen Banquet" can surpass that of "Shark Beach" starring Mi Mi, which makes the fans of the fairy sister feel so embarrassed.

More importantly, Da Mi Mi also won the Golden Horse Award for Best Newcomer Actor, and was nominated for the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress, although he did not win the award in the end.

But the nomination of numerous awards also proves that Mi Mi has made great progress in acting.

On the contrary, Sister Immortal has nothing to commend her for so many years except for her beauty and fame.

While the fans were secretly anxious, they also tried to find ways to help the fairy sister, and for a while they thought of the interaction between Zhang Hao and the fairy sister.

Sister Shenxian also attended the premiere of "The Prestige" in June this year. Director Zhang promised a role at that time.

As a result, the role was given to Zhou Xun, but Sister Shenxian didn't fulfill it.

Ever since, the fans of Sister Fairy gathered under the Weibo of Haotian Studio, wanting Zhang Hao to come out and fulfill his promise.

Hearing the report from his assistant Tang Qianqian, Zhang Hao was stunned.

No, Sister Shenxian's box office is not good, can this also be found on me?Who doesn't know that it's just a joke on Weibo, but they take it seriously?

If you really think that the box office of Sister Shenxian's movie is not good, it's better for fans to buy more tickets to support "Legend of Hongmen Banquet" than to make trouble under Haotian Studio's Weibo.

After thinking about it, Zhang Hao said to Tang Qianqian, "Go and find Director Guo."

Tang Qianqian turned around and called Guo Fan over. Guo Fan sat in front of Zhang Hao's desk: "Director, you are looking for me."

"I've got something to do with you, I've almost rested now, I still need to make more movies to practice, do you have any ideas?" Zhang Hao asked.

Guo Fan shook his head and said, "Where is there any idea, I want to make "The Wandering Earth", but I also know that it is unrealistic."

"With your current ability, our level is not enough to complete this film." Zhang Hao said, took out two notebooks from his briefcase, and said to Guo Fan: "You choose one yourself!"

Now that there are computers and e-mails, trendy screenwriters like to save their scripts on the computer, but Zhang Hao still likes to print out the scripts and bind them into a book.

When flipping through, you can take notes on it, just like doing reading comprehension.

Guo Fan took two books and looked at them, one was "The Butterfly Effect" and the other was "A Little Thing of First Love".

After a general review of the content, "Butterfly Effect" returns to Zhang Hao's usual high IQ and brain-burning, and also adds some science fiction elements in it.

"Sci-fi films? Director, didn't you say that we are immature in making sci-fi films?" Guo Fan asked.

"It's immature. If you asked me to make "Transformers 3", I'm sure I won't be able to make it, but it's not impossible to play with the concept of science fiction films." Zhang Hao said, pointing to his own brain:

"Everything depends on imagination. With enough imagination, you can make a good science fiction film without a big scene."

Guo Fan admired: "Your brain is the only one in the entire Chinese film industry, and no one else has it."

Zhang Hao took a sip of tea, which he brought along from his grandfather.When the national teacher's "Jinling Thirteen Beauties" premiered, Zhang Hao brought some to the national teacher, and the national teacher liked it very much.

A few days ago, the national teacher and Zhang Hao went to the grandfather's house for dinner, and had a very happy chat with Zhang Hao's grandfather. Before leaving, they also took a bag of tea.

Guo Fan likes to drink coffee, Zhang Hao likes to drink tea.The two have different hobbies, but they have many common topics, and they often discuss work together.

Zhang Hao described a very beautiful future for domestic science fiction films to Guo Fan, which made Guo Fan yearn for it.At the same time, he comforted Guo Fan to keep his feet on the ground and do the work in front of him first.

"Technology and talents can be accumulated slowly. I think what we lack the most is a heart of fantasy. People used to say that Chinese people can't do science fiction, and Chinese people can't do science fiction. I think this is nonsense.

Our ancestors were not lacking in imagination, and they also gave wings to fantasy.

And now, it's your turn, it's my turn, it's our turn to plug in the wings. "Zhang Hao made a generous speech.

These words made Guo Fan himself excited, and he made a decision instantly: "Well said, so, how about entrusting "Butterfly Effect" to me?"

"Uh," Zhang Hao was stunned for a moment: "I just said down-to-earth, and you are so impulsive?"

"It's not what you said, the director. Do you want to give wings to the fantasy? You are in charge of the fantasy, and I am in charge of realizing it." Guo Fan directly used it, and decided to launch this conceptual science fiction film by himself.

"Why don't you think about "A Little Thing of First Love" again? Cooperating with Sister Shenxian, she can accept being ugly." Zhang Hao said, with a hint of threat in his eyes.

Feeling the danger, Guo Fan changed his mind instantly: "Actually, I think "A Little Thing of First Love" is also good."

The above is just a joke between two good friends. In fact, Guo Fan has no confidence in his filming of "Butterfly Effect", and in the end it is "A Little Thing of First Love".

"Fatal Prestige" can also be regarded as a science fiction film to a certain extent.But everyone's attention was attracted by the battle of wits of the two protagonists, and they didn't care about the sci-fi elements.

It was not until long after the film was released that it was about to be launched on the video website that several film and television bloggers explained the sci-fi elements in it.

But even so, according to the traditional stereotype, "The Prestige" is still not classified as a science fiction film.

In the minds of most audiences, it seems that only big-scene movies like "Transformers 3" can be regarded as pure science fiction films.

And Zhang Hao's next project, "Butterfly Effect" is the film Zhang Hao uses to break everyone's inherent impression.

The term butterfly effect refers to the fact that a butterfly flapping its wings in South America can cause a tornado along the coast of North America.

The directors of the original film, Eric Brace and J. McKay Gruber, were screenwriters and spent seven years preparing the script for the film.

But now Zhang Hao took it as a doctrine, and in less than a month, he completed the localization of the entire script, and made the story clear.

I believe that when this film meets the audience, it will definitely surprise everyone.

However, because the plot is too brain-burning and there is no exciting plot like "The Prestige", the box office of the film may not be very good.

No matter what, Zhang Hao is willing to give it a try, try to inspire the audience's confidence in domestic sci-fi films, and arouse the audience's heated discussion on domestic sci-fi films.

In fact, Zhang Hao also prepared a "Black Hole Frequency".

If Guo Fan is interested in this project after "A Little Thing of First Love", Zhang Hao will give it to Guo Fan to practice.

"Black Hole Frequency" can also be filmed as a derivative series. I remember that the high-scoring Korean drama "Signal" borrowed many ideas from "Black Hole Frequency" in the previous life, and then this TV series was remade in China.

Just in time, when the series comes out, let the Koreans remake it.

I'm afraid that the Koreans who have always been used to stealing things don't even pay the copyright fee, and in turn they have to ask for the copyright fee, that would be bad.

In this way, Zhang Hao directed "Butterfly Effect" and Guo Fan directed "A Little Thing of First Love". Haotian Studio has two major projects for next year.

Guo Fan can prepare in advance, but Zhang Hao intends to take a break and prepare for the movie "Butterfly Effect" when he comes back in a year.
