Chapter 190 Investing in "Wolf Warrior"

The "Gravity" project has officially passed the project approval. Tianmi Film and Television Production Company, Bona Film, Enlight Film, and Penguin Film are the main investors, and Bona Film and China Film are in charge of distribution.

In addition, as many as a dozen investors and film and television funds have joined this project. The expected production cost of the entire project is [-] million.

This is a real [-] million yuan, not the [-] million yuan that other movies shout out, and it is not certain whether the actual investment is [-] million yuan.

For the specific reasons, anyone who understands understands.

The project has been approved, and the official Weibo of Tianmi Film and Television Production Company also revealed that there is only a concept poster designed by Zhang Hao.

In the poster picture, the earth with morning and evening lines occupies most of the space. Below the earth, an astronaut wearing a spacesuit floats in space at a 45-degree angle.

The direction the astronaut looked at was a damaged spaceship.

At the bottom of the poster, there are four cursive characters written: "Gravity".

Looking at this poster full of sci-fi and the revealed title of the film, the netizens immediately climaxed.Zhang Hao didn't work hard in Hollywood, but came back to make Chinese-language movies.

This instantly broke some man-made rumors that Zhang Hao will never return. Facts have proved that Zhang Hao, as he himself said, went to learn technology.

However, the new project "Gravity", is this a bit too risky?

Chinese science fiction?Can this really work?

Many netizens, including Zhang Hao's fans, left messages under the poster, expressing their dislike and support for the good ones, but most of them chose to wait and see.

"Domestic sci-fi film? Is Director Zhang serious?"

"It's not that I don't like it. It's fine if it's another genre, but let's forget about domestic science fiction films."

"How can it be forgotten? At the beginning, you didn't like Director Zhang's Batman movie, but now the box office of the movie is rushing to [-] million US dollars.

Facts have proved that director Zhang Hao can create miracles. "

"Creating a miracle depends on the overall level. Zhang Hao is in Hollywood, he has a gold medal producer to check him, Warner Pictures controls the creative process, and there are so many outstanding Hollywood film technicians.

What do we have?Relying on Zhang Hao alone? "

"Director Zhang didn't rely on him alone. He took a team of more than 100 people to study, have you all forgotten? And his Tiangong Yicai Studio also participated in the production of "Batman: Beginning of War". The best special effects studio in China.

There are people who have technology, how can it be considered that they have no foundation? "

"There's no point in arguing. Don't you know when the movie comes out and watch it?"

"Anyway, I support other types of films, but I won't watch domestic science fiction films."

Several Fanggongs said that the father was right and the wife said that the wife was right, but no one could convince anyone, they were all stubborn.But it doesn't matter. At the end of the war of words, we still have to look at the final quality of the film.

But this anger made more people know that Zhang Hao was about to shoot a sci-fi film belonging to a Chinese-language movie, and it was considered a hype in advance to attract a little traffic.

Compared with outsiders such as movie fans, netizens and ordinary audiences, insiders also talked a lot.

Mr. Wang had been seeking a reconciliation with Zhang Hao after Zhang Hao returned to China, so as to achieve another cooperation between Huayi and Tianmi Film and Television Company.

But when he heard about Zhang Hao's domestic sci-fi movie, Mr. Wang immediately flinched.

What Xiao Wang always said makes sense: "Zhang Hao went to Hollywood for a while, thinking that he is invincible in the film market. The next period of time will be Zhang Hao's expansion period.

Huayi might as well wait until Zhang Hao stumbles, the movie project hits the street, and the film and television city project runs aground, before Huayi comes to the rescue.

In this way, Zhang Hao is grateful to Huayi, and will work hard for Huayi in the future. "

Mr. Wang heard that it made sense. Compared with cooperation, it was more in Huayi's interest to turn Zhang Hao into one of his own and become a director who worked for him, so he was not so eager to pursue Zhang Hao.

The same situation happened between Cong Shao and his father, and Cong Shao explained the reason to Wang Yiwan: "Dad, I majored in philosophy and also studied psychology.

If Zhang Hao followed the steps, he would definitely be one of the best directors in China, but now he is arrogant and supercilious.Does historical experience tell me that such people will eventually go to the road of failure.

We might as well wait for him to fail, and then help him, so that Wanda will have a first-line director. "

After hearing his son's plan, Wang Yiwan was noncommittal.Although Wang Yiwan thinks that Zhang Hao's sci-fi film project is a bit radical, he doesn't think that Zhang Hao planned such a project because he was inflated.

The son had a good idea. When Zhang Hao failed, he would pull Zhang Hao again and tie Zhang Hao to the chariot of Wanda Pictures.

But he never thought about what to do if he succeeds. At that time, all the doubts Zhang Hao faced will no longer exist, and he will be more sought after than now.

Moreover, as a businessman with a long-term vision, Wang Yiwan thinks very clearly that even if he fails, he still has Penguin, a giant enterprise that is no less important than Wanda, and still needs the help of Wanda Pictures?
However, since his son graduated, it is rare for him to start working hard on his career. Wang Yiwan is not good at dampening his son's enthusiasm, so he might as well use this thing in exchange for his son's growth!

At this point, Wang Yiwan smiled and said: "Okay, I will leave this matter to you. Remember, you must learn to grow."

Young Master Cong didn't hear his father's blessing at all, and grinned: "Don't worry, Dad, it's all right this time."

With the release of a poster, there was such an enthusiastic discussion, this is the effect Zhang Hao wanted to achieve.Then Miss Guanbo revealed more things, for example, the four cursive characters of "Gravity" were written by Zhang Hao's grandfather.

Immediately, a well-known calligrapher stood up and began to praise: "Mr. Zhang's calligraphy is vigorous and powerful, with high artistic value and great collection value."

Later, a well-known painter came out and said: "The basic composition of this poster has a sense of aesthetic design. Director Zhang Hao's artistic talent is not covered."

Many people from the cultural circles also stepped forward to criticize the posters from the perspectives of aesthetics, fonts, and art.

Of course, this is all arranged in advance. In the face of generous red envelopes, few so-called artists can insist on not bending their waists for five buckets of rice.

Of course, they didn't lie, the poster design is indeed very artistic.

Everyone knows the name of the movie and the approval of the project, but now the main concern is the choice of the protagonist.

Every time Zhang Hao's film project was established, ordinary audiences would be noisy for a while, and the film companies that did not participate in the discussion would pass.

But it is not that simple in the actor circle, which means that competition is coming.

What is the most important thing in the entertainment industry?It's resources, big and small stars all rely on resources to live.

Variety shows, TV dramas, and advertising endorsements are all resources, not to mention movies that represent social status and status, which are even more scarce resources.

Especially the opportunity to cooperate with a top-level director like Zhang Hao made the actors overwhelmed.

If you look at the people Zhang Hao has promoted, you will know that Li Qin, Li Xian, Bai Yu, Tan Songyun, and even Da Mi Mi are almost all supported by Zhang Hao.

After Deng Chao, Huang Xiaoming, Chen Kun, Zhou Xun, Guo Tao, etc. cooperated with Zhang Hao, their careers have reached a higher level.

Andy Lau is even more incredible. With Zhang Hao's film, he achieved Wulianzhuang, the best actor, and accomplished a remarkable achievement.

So, once Zhang Hao has a new film project approved, the big and small stars in the circle will try their best to fight for it, and they will fight desperately.In other words, if Zhang Hao wants unspoken rules, the actresses who are willing to be unspoken by him can be ranked in the third ring.

If Zhang Hao is interested in male stars, little white faces and little fresh meat, the team will probably go to the fifth ring.

But Zhang Hao was not interested, which disappointed those who wanted to rely on their beauty or muscles to get ahead, and couldn't sleep with the director.

"Gravity" doesn't use many actors, there are only two and a half actors in total, and the one and a half actors don't have too many roles, and they are basically the heroine's one-man show.

The heroine has already decided to be a big power, another character has Hua Tsai as a cameo, and the remaining half has Wu Jinglai as a cameo.

By the way, when Zhang Hao was busy with the Batman project in North America, Wu Jing once brought his own "Wolf Warrior" project to seek investment.

Cai Runping, a senior executive of the company, saw that it was a military action movie, and immediately judged that the subject matter was not interesting, so she wanted to reject it.

But before she refused, Cai Runping was extra careful, and called Zhang Hao's assistant Tang Qianqian. After Tang Xiqian asked Zhang Hao's meaning, Tianmi Film and Television Production Company invested 1500 million to join the project.

Everyone was not optimistic about Wu Jing's project. He sold his house, took out his savings for many years, and with the support of his friend Lu Jianmin, set up the project for this film.

After looking for investment in the circle, all the film companies refused, only Zhang Hao's Tianmi supported it, and invested 1500 million.

This friendship made Wu Jing feel grateful. When Zhang Hao chatted with Wu Jing about the half-human tricks of "Gravity" at the launch meeting of "Wolf Warrior", he agreed without thinking.

"If Mimi hadn't become your heroine, I would have wanted her to star in "Wolf Warrior"." Wu Jing looked at Da Mimi who was chatting with Yu Nan, and said to Zhang Hao.

"It doesn't matter, just let Mi Mi star in "Wolf Warrior 2"." Zhang Hao laughed.

"You are too polite. I don't know if this movie will be a success. There is no second one." Wu Jing said with a little confidence.

Zhang Hao said with a smile: "Brother Jing, don't say that. If you don't believe in yourself, you should also believe in my vision. Together we will create a miracle in film history."

"That's right, your vision is recognized by everyone, but recently someone called you a lunatic Zhang and me a fool Wu." Wu Jing frowned, obviously some online words were a bit unpleasant.

"They are just jealous. If they want to do a big business, they have to look at this kind of strange gaze. Most people don't have this kind of long-term insight, and we are destined to belong to a small number of people who are successful."

"Well said, cheers..."

"cheers……"

This is the opening ceremony of "Wolf Warrior". Wu Jing will take the crew to Jinling to shoot the next day. He just finished training in the army there a few months ago.

Because Zhang Hao drank, it was Da Mi Mi who drove the car.

On the way back, Da Mi Mi asked Zhang Hao: "Are you so optimistic about this project?"

"Just believe me, how many times have I told you that this movie will set a milestone in military action movies." Zhang Hao drank a little too much and was a little dizzy.

Da Mimi lowered the car window to let the wind blow in, helping Zhang Hao relieve his dizziness.

"Of course I believe in you. Even if you make a sci-fi film, I will firmly follow you. And the money has been given to others, and it is too late to regret it now." Da Mimi said.

"That's right, in the next "Wolf Warrior", you will be able to become the heroine as a matter of course. This is a brilliant resume..." Zhang Hao fell asleep while talking.

Da Mimi looked at the sleeping Zhang Hao speechlessly, and made a mouth gesture: "Little fool..."

At the same time, he couldn't help but chuckle, fearing that Zhang Hao would catch a cold, he closed the car window again.
