my movie years

Chapter 246

"Come on, Maimai, let me introduce you. This is Guo Fanguo." Zhang Hao waved and called Maimai over.

Mai Mai Qiao stood in front of Guo Fan and said hello, "Director Guo Fan..."

"Hello, Maimai," Guo Fan looked up and down at Maimai, both of whom were in good shape.

"This is the actor I introduced to you to play Han Duoduo. This is the actor I watched growing up. Don't bully her." Zhang Hao joked.

"No way, I don't dare to bully." Guo Fan quickly assured that he had no such thoughts.

Seeing that the little girl has a very good relationship with Zhang Hao, Guo Fan doesn't want to bully, no, he is a good person, how could he bully others?

Of course Mai Mai knew what Zhang Hao asked her to do, but she was still a little worried.

"Brother, I'm in junior high school now, and my study tasks are very heavy." Mai Mai said while holding Zhang Hao's clothes.

Zhang Hao indicated that it's okay: "It's okay, Director Guo is a top student in law, it's okay to help you with your homework, and the crew can hire you a tutor."

"Really?" Mai Mai was delighted: "Then I'm fine."

"Okay, let's go to your sister Mi's office to play, there are fruits and snacks and drinks." Zhang Hao patted Mai Mai's head and let her go to play.

After Mai Mai went out, Zhang Hao and Guo Fan looked at each other and smiled, successfully fooling an actor, perfect.

In fact, it's not a fool, with Zhang Hao's checks and the input of several major partners, the project of "The Wandering Earth" will not be short of money like in the previous life.

Although the film may not be able to achieve the same results as in the previous life, as long as the quality is guaranteed, the box office is not a problem.

"Boss, you really take care of Mai Mai!" Guo Fan said.

Zhang Hao shrugged and said, "I worked with Mai Mai in my first movie. At that time, I often rubbed against her mother's things. The little girl is really cute."

"Now that I have grown up, I have a beautiful embryo with potential." Guo Fan praised.

Mai Mai has also starred in film and television dramas in recent years, and has always kept in touch with Zhang Hao. Every year on Zhang Hao's birthday, he will call to wish him well, and will also send him a birthday gift made by himself.

Sometimes it is a stack of paper cranes, and sometimes it is a painting made by myself.

The same is true for Zhang Hao, as soon as they come and go, the relatively close relationship between the two spreads.Because of Zhang Hao's face, Mai Mai somewhat feels like a little princess in the entertainment industry.

However, Mai Mai has a good temper and personality, and she didn't use her status as Zhang Hao's younger sister to play a big role. At present, she still focuses on her studies.

Some people may say that little children are so scheming and not worthy of deep friendship.

But Zhang Hao believes that being more scheming is not a disadvantage, but an advantage.If Da Mimi didn't have a little scheming, even with Zhang Hao as the backing, he wouldn't be able to reach his current position.

In the entertainment circle, although it looks good to be pure and unscheming, if it is really like this, it will be eliminated sooner or later.

Those who can get along, there are no people who are not scheming, and they all have some means.

Therefore, in many cases, when looking at a person, don't look at whether he is scheming or not, but look at his behavior.As long as it's positive, it's fine.

If Mai Mai's careful thinking is used in a wrong way, it is impossible for Zhang Hao not to see it, and still take care of her like this.

Of course, no matter how scheming a child is, he or she can show it. Most of the time, it is an adult who gives advice.

Zhang Hao is just making preparations when he is introduced to Guo Fan. The film will not start shooting until next year. At that time, Mai Mai will be one year older, which is about the same age as the script.

After finding Han Duoduo's actor, Guo Fan still wants to find Liu Qi's actor.

Qu Chu, Xiao Zhanghao didn't want to use him, he wanted to change to a better actor of the new generation.But unfortunately, there are basically no suitable actors for male actors born in the [-]s.

Zhang Hao originally proposed to use Li Xianbaiyu, or the relatively younger Zhang Yishan.

But Guo Fan disagreed, he felt that these actors did not match the temperament of the characters in the script.

Later, I thought of Huang Jingyu and Bai Jingting, and I also sent invitations to these two actors.In the end, they flatly refused, saying that Zhang Hao, the producer, and Guo Fan, the director, would not accept it.

His agent also made it clear that unless Zhang Hao directed it himself, it would be impossible to accept it.

There was no other way, because Zhang Hao was very busy and had no time to shoot this project.And he can't take Guo Fan's job, what do other people think?
Zhang Hao is also depressed. It is good to have a movie these days, so why are you still pushing it?

Logically speaking, with him as an excellent example, everyone should not have such a big resistance to domestic science fiction films.

I can only say that I really don't understand what these people are thinking.

When Guo Fan was frowning, Zhang Hao suggested that he should go directly to the Beijing Film Academy to cast a role. Those students who have not left school are still very easy to fool.

Guo Fan thought it made sense, so he went to the Beijing Film Academy for an audition.

In order to allow more outstanding students to participate, Guo Fan did not say at the beginning that this is a science fiction film adapted from a domestic science fiction novel.

Rather, it is a film about the relationship between father and son, and the film is starring Hua Tsai and Tony Leung.

When they heard about the cooperation with Hua Tsai and Liang Chaowei, all the students in the acting department were excited. Students with dreams and courage signed up for auditions.

At this time, a student named Zhang Wanyi stood out, and his excellent performance in the audition conquered the audition team and won the role of Liu Qi.

When Zhang Wanyi got the role, she was so excited that she stayed up all night and celebrated with her good friends.

He thought he was really working with Hua Tsai and Liang Chaowei, and he was already dreaming of the grand occasion after the movie was released. It felt like another "Infernal Affairs".

As everyone knows, he was fooled.

Later, Zhang Wanyi said in an interview: "After joining the crew, I thought there were Hua Tsai and Liang Chaowei, but I haven't seen them since the filming started.

Director Guo told me that they have a busy schedule and will join later.But they didn't see them until it was almost finished. At this time, Director Guo revealed that there were no two of them at all. "

This interview is very interesting, and it confirms Guo Fan's reputation as a big fool.

But that's all for the future. In fact, Guo Fan really wanted to invite Andy Hua Tsai to play the role of Liu Qi's father.

Hua Tsai is very interested, but he has a busy schedule, so he can only express his regret.

At this time, that man appeared.

That man is just a second-tier movie star now. His latest self-directed and acted "Wolf Warrior" has just been drawn in theaters, and has received 6.23 million box office.

Facing Guo Fan's request, the man directly agreed.

That's right, he is Wu Jing, and he has to play the role of Liu Peiqiang after going around.

Wu Jing has joined, and other actors will also join in the follow-up. Compared with the attention of "The Martian", "The Wandering Earth" has no one.

But in the previous life that everyone didn't know, this movie was the first Chinese science fiction movie. Zhang Hao also wished this movie to achieve excellent results.

When "The Wandering Earth" was being prepared, "The Dark Knight" began its release on May [-], and finally ended its last market screening on September [-].

The box office of the film was fixed at 16.61 billion US dollars, failing to break through 17 billion US dollars, but this result is already good enough.

"The Dark Knight" firmly suppressed the 7 billion of "Fast and Furious 15.15" and the 2 billion of "Avengers 14.05: Age of Ultron", temporarily becoming the annual box office champion.

The reason why it is temporary is because there will be another heavyweight blockbuster at the end of the year, and that is the restart of the "Star Wars" series "Star Wars: The Force Awakens".

Zhang Hao knows what kind of achievements this film has created, and although people don't know the power of this film now, the restart of the film after such a long time interval is already highly anticipated.

In fact, this is an ambitious work after Disney acquired Lucasfilm.

All of Hollywood is feeling the huge pressure from Disney. With Marvel on the left and Star Wars on the right, Disney is already invincible, and it is enough to be called the number one film company in the world.

If Warner Bros. and Universal Pictures hadn't released "The Dark Knight" and "Fast and Furious 7" this year, Disney would have completed its domination of this year's film market.

In fact, "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" has something to do with Zhang Hao.

When Lucasfilm was initially acquired, Zhang Hao stepped in and poached away part of the core backbone of the industrial light and magic special effects studio under Lucasfilm.

Zhang Hao also circumvented the non-competition agreement and registered the Moon Palace Special Effects Studio on Hong Kong Island to accommodate this group of talents.

This made Disney President Robert Iger so angry that he immediately wanted to lobby members of Congress to block film works and filmmakers from China.

Needless to say, the meaning is to take revenge on Zhang Hao.

However, the Chinese film market is booming, and the huge interests are affecting the hearts of other Hollywood companies. Naturally, Disney will not let go of the cake in the Chinese market.

If you block people, they will in turn block you with import quotas and prevent you from entering the Chinese market. This will be a big loss.

This is something no one wants to see. Under the persuasion of all the presidents of several film companies, especially the president of Warner Pictures, Robert Iger went downhill and gave up lobbying.

Afterwards, the filming of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" encountered some difficulties. Fortunately, Industrial Light & Magic and Digital Domain worked together to complete all the special effects production for this project.

"The Dark Knight" has not only achieved great commercial success, but also has a good reputation. On IMDB, the film was once on par with "The Godfather 1".

Nowadays young movie fans are very crazy, they will do anything for their favorite works.

Fans of "The Dark Knight" are no exception. Since the film was released, fans have seen such a high-quality film, and they began to score the film on impulse.

At that time, on the IMDB rankings, "The Godfather 1" ranked first, and "Shawshank's Redemption" ranked second.

Originally, according to the normal rhythm, it is not a problem for "The Godfather 1" to sit firmly at the top of the IMDB score.But after the release of "The Dark Knight", all this has changed a lot.

Fans of "The Dark Knight" kept giving low marks to "The Godfather 1" and "Shawshank's Redemption", and gave high marks to "The Dark Knight". "The Godfather 1" is the main target of fans.

Fans of "Godfather Part 1" of course don't do it, they are doing the same thing, so "Godfather Part 1" fans and "Dark Knight" fans attack each other.

"The Shawshank Redemption" made a lot of money. It had no chance to be the first place, and it successfully topped the IMDB rating list.

In August, the behavior of scoring points calmed down. At this time, "The Godfather 1" slipped from the first place to the third place, and slowly surpassed "The Dark Knight" to return to the second place.

"The Dark Knight" failed to take the first place as expected, but maintained the third place with a high score of 9.1.

Zhang Hao also made a achievement, the first Chinese-language film director to enter the top three of IMDBTOP250, but it is a pity that "The Dark Knight" is not a Chinese-language film.

At this time, there are only four Chinese-language films on the IMDBTOP250 list, and they are "In the Mood for Love" directed by Wong Kar-wai in 2000, which currently ranks 231.

There is also "Ip Man" directed by Ye Weixin in 2008, currently ranked 209th.

And... "The Undertaker" and "Gravity" directed by Zhang Hao, one ranked 228th, and the other ranked 173rd.

Other Chinese films such as "Infernal Affairs" and "Heroes" have unfortunately been squeezed out of the rankings.

Compared with the competition for the IMDB rankings, the domestic Douban side is more lively
