If you are asked to make a graduation film, you will win the Golden Bear Award?

Chapter 241 Chinese Movie No. 1!
The security guards at the Yangma Building were shocked when they saw the crowd at the door. They had never seen such a large crowd except for the recording of the Spring Festival Gala.

The crowd outside.

Many wore jackets with characters from "Kung Fu Panda" printed on them.

These characters are all characters who appeared in the previous trailers of "Kung Fu Panda".

Panda, turtle, tiger, monkey etc.

All are well-known and most popular in the animal world.

The protagonist, the panda, is the national treasure of Huaguo, and is also loved by people all over the world. Huaguo had panda diplomacy before, and all countries wanted to rent pandas in Huaguo.

"Brother, you are so fast. It's even stamped with the 'Pretty Little Dragon' from the movie." Everyone around came to watch.

A man was wearing a coat with 'Qiao Xiaolong' on it, and Zhang Ziyi was standing next to him, standing together with a snake.

The "Little Dragon" character in "Kung Fu Panda" definitely didn't appear in the trailer.

However, within three days of the film's release, the image of "Pretty Little Dragon", including the character's voice actor Zhang Ziyi, has already been printed. The speed can be described as extremely fast.

"My family does printing." Seeing so many people gathered around, I couldn't help but feel proud on my face, ""Kung Fu Panda" was released, and I went to see it immediately. I stayed up all night to watch the zero-point show."

"After watching it, I particularly like the image of 'Qiao Xiaolong' and her signature move, the Snake-Shaped Trickster. I loved the movie 'Snake-Shaped Trickster' when I was a child. If Chen Long voices Po, come on. Just finish this action.”

In 78, "The Snake-shaped Hand" was played by Chen Long, but in "Kung Fu Panda", the snake-shaped hand was played by "Qiao Xiaolong", one of the Furious Five.

Qiao Xiaolong's dubbing Zhang Ziyi also became famous in the world through a martial arts action film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". Her pretty figure made Zhang Ziyi remembered by the world audience.

In "Kung Fu Panda", the image of "Qiao Xiaolong" is a snake, and the snake represents the graceful figure of a woman.

The protagonist, Abao, plays a funny role, which is also in line with the image of Chen Long's movies. Chen Long's movies focus on action and comedy.

There is also the "Golden Monkey" voiced by Jay Chou. He talks very little, which is in line with Jay Chou's image. Fans have seen Jay Chou's concerts and know that he doesn't talk much. The songs are nice but the lyrics are difficult to understand.

The "Golden Monkey" dubbed by Jay Chou doesn't say much, but every time he speaks, it can make the audience laugh, which is a small surprise.

"Po is a panda. If he plays a snake-shaped trick, don't you think it's inappropriate?" A passerby next to him said, "You can't do it for the sake of feelings, without considering the rationality of the movie."

"I have to say, Director Lu knows Kung Fu so well." When passerby C said this, he was very excited and performed the moves in the movie. "Everyone has their own signature moves. I really hope that Director Lu will make a martial arts movie." , find both Chen Long and Li Lianjie."

"You don't need to look forward to it, it's already available, "The King of Kung Fu"." A passer-by next to him said with a smile.

"That's different. "The King of Kung Fu" is not directed by Director Lu, but only as the director of the film." Passer-by B said with yearning eyes, "I want Director Lu to direct it himself."

Everyone also expressed support.

Everyone present has watched "Kung Fu Panda", and they all like the martial arts moves of each character in the movie. There are chic moves, funny moves, and "snake-shaped tricky hands", which can be seen in classic martial arts movies, Find out what the archetype does.

A "Kung Fu Panda" made the audience addicted to the eyes.

It's a pity that this is just an animated movie. If it were a live-action movie, these martial arts moves would be more enjoyable.

Of course, the action design is only part of the brilliance of "Kung Fu Panda".

The picture quality, character design, special effects production, etc. are all world-class.

Especially the movie story, which is completely a story of Huaguo Kungfu.

This made the audience especially admire Lu Dao's pen. The story of "Kung Fu Panda" was completed by Lu Dao, including the initial images of each character, all were drawn by Lu Chen.

"The action design of "Kung Fu Panda", including the dubbing of each character, and the actors we hired are very appropriate." At this time, a passerby said, "But I think the most exciting part of "Kung Fu Panda" is the story and the lines. That’s the best.”

"I agree with this sentence." Passerby A took over, "I have watched "Kung Fu Panda" twice. I really like the lines in it, which are full of wisdom from ancient Chinese people, especially Master Oogway, who is voiced by Teacher Ge You. It feels like he is a saint in ancient China."

"Yes, I really like a line of Master Wugui." Passer-by C didn't even need to think about it, the lines were already memorized.

Learned from "Kung Fu Panda" Master Turtle, and said this sentence, "You worry about gains and losses, you care too much about the past, and you worry too much about the future. There is a saying that goes well, yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift from God." Gifts, cherish today as you cherish presents."

After he finished speaking, the people next to him applauded enthusiastically and gave a thumbs up. This was a line from "Kung Fu Panda". The accent was perfect, and it sounded like the movie Master Oogway.

"It's so similar, it feels like Master Turtle has come out of the screen." A passer-by beside him praised.

"The most important thing in "Kung Fu Panda" is not kung fu, but the Chinese culture in it." Passerby A's eyes were filled with admiration, "And these lines were all created by Director Lu. It is worthy of being the author of "Let the Bullets Fly" Director, the work is so lovable."

"Kung Fu Panda" lines.

It's really eye-catching. The lines are full of high-level culture, just like entering the ancient Chinese period when culture was at the top of the world.

The classic lines in the movie are still fresh in the audience's memory and can be blurted out.

#你的思想是这样的湖水, a little touch by the outside world, it is difficult to be clear and clear, but if you let him calm down, the answer suddenly becomes clear#
#Maybe your story doesn't start with happiness, but it doesn't determine your life.What you want to be like, it all depends on your own choice#
#The scars will heal, you must forget everything in the past, because those are not important, what is really important is the choice you make now#
#If you only do things within your ability, you will never make progress#
Most of these lines come from Master Oogway.

Of course, all the characters were created by Director Lu, and it can also be said that they came from Director Lu’s pen.

"Director Lu is here!" At this moment, the people at the door became excited.

One by one screamed.

Most of the people present today are loyal fans of Director Lu.

Ever since they became fans of Director Lu, the pride in their hearts has not faded.

Director Lu used each work to prove that everyone's admiration is right. Every movie is breaking records, and the first movie is a masterpiece.

Moreover, Director Lu is more popular in the world, more famous, and has more fans abroad.

However, Director Lu took special care of the movie fans in Hua Country. For the films he directed, the premiere country would be selected in Hua Country, allowing Hua Country fans to watch the movie as soon as possible.

Europe and the United States have to wait a week, and Japan, South Korea and other countries have to wait a month.

Liu Yifei held Lu Chen's hand, and her face was full of pride. With "Kung Fu Panda", her senior brother told the world, who said that domestic animated movies are dead?

5000 million on the first day!
Breaking through [-] million in three days!

It is the first animated film in the history of the mainland to exceed [-] million yuan.

This is the result of "Kung Fu Panda"~!

Lu Chen stopped and greeted the audience.

Now everyone is more excited and crazier.

Seeing this, the security guards hurried over and surrounded Director Lu. If there was an accident later, everyone's jobs would be lost, and they asked Director Lu to enter the field as soon as possible.

"Give me 5 minutes." Lu Chen has always maintained a cordial attitude towards the audience who support him and never plays a big role.

And today's press conference about the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games.

No spectators were allowed in at all, only media reporters were allowed in.

These fans were waiting for me at the door, so they must simply say a few words and ask them to take pictures, which is not a waste of time.

……

"Director Lu!" Arriving inside the Yangma building, the host of today's press conference, Sa Beisuo, was already waiting. He bent forward and shook hands, his eyes full of admiration.

"Kung Fu Panda" was the first time I watched it.

The movie is so exciting.

Everything about the movie, is completely world class.

I feel that this is not like the current Chinese-language animated movies, but like the Chinese-language animated movies that will only appear in the next few decades.

Putting this before, who would have imagined that such a wonderful Chinese-language animation film as "Kung Fu Panda" would be made.

If it weren't for Director Lu, it would be impossible for such a wonderful story and well-produced animated film to be brought to the big screen.

As for Chinese-language animated films, I don’t know when they will be revived.

It can be said that Director Lu's influence on Chinese-language films has been so great that it can be described as "the godfather". With Director Lu, Chinese-language films will usher in prosperity.

Has a world-renowned film company, Mars Films.

With the Mercury special effects that became famous in the first battle of "Transformers".

There is also Mars Film and Television (Animation) Company, which is known to the audience in "Kung Fu Panda".

"Sabei?" Lu Chen looked at you a few times, "I've seen you on TV before, and I really like the "Today's Talk" program you hosted. Today I finally see a real person, so I have to take a photo with you."

As he spoke, he handed the phone to Liu Yifei to help take a photo.

Sa Bei was so flattered, the godfather of Chinese movies, offered to take a photo with her?

I originally wanted to ask for a photo shoot with Director Lu, but now I don't need to say anything, "Director Lu, I really like the movies you directed, and I regard you as my idol. Now I finally meet a real person."

It is already difficult to see Director Lu Chen on the big screen now.

It is also a lot of work to hardly appear in works and only focus on behind-the-scenes.

Lu Chen is not only a director, but also the big boss of several companies, and he still has time to make movies, which is already pretty good.

"Brother, it's fine." Liu Yifei returned the phone.

"Director Lu, please go ahead. Everything has been set up for the venue, and the reporters are waiting." Sabei led the way, feeling excited. This time, she was able to follow "Inception" and "Let the Bullets Fly". , "Kung Fu Panda" director contact, feel honored.

"Clap!"

When Lu Chen entered the arena.

There was warm applause, and of course the applause came from state-owned media companies.

Reporters from private media companies were busy taking pictures, preparing for the next day's headlines.

Lu Chen and Liu Yifei took their seats on the stage.

The camera pointed at Lu Chen on the stage. Today's press conference will be broadcast live by Yangma's TV station.

As the host, Sa Bei picked up the microphone, "I believe everyone can't wait, I don't want to talk nonsense, everyone just chat with Director Lu."

"Director Lu, you are the chief director of the Olympic Games." First, People's Daily asked, "It is less than two years before our country's Summer Olympic Games. How are the preparations for the Olympic Games going?"

Although "Kung Fu Panda" is the most popular.

But today's press conference is about the Olympics.

"I will work hard with all the staff of the Olympic director team." Lu Chen's special official answer, "All the programs for the opening and closing ceremonies have been determined. Currently, the actors of all programs have gone to specific venues for training... …”

Most of the next questions were related to the Olympic Games, and the questions were also asked by the state-run media.

"Director Lu, after listening to you talk so much about the Olympic Games, I am now even more looking forward to the opening and closing ceremonies of the 08 Peking Summer Olympics." When the reporter from People's Daily said this, his tone changed, "Director Lu, now "Kung Fu Panda" directed by you is currently in theaters, and I believe everyone has many questions to ask you."

This is also the instruction received from the above, let's talk about the important things first, about the Olympic Games.

However, "Kung Fu Panda" is getting so much attention in the society now, so we have to talk about it, and we must not let foreign journalists and friends go home disappointed.

After the reporter from People's Daily finished speaking, the reporters in the audience rushed to ask questions about "Kung Fu Panda".

"Director Lu!" The reporter from the film newspaper couldn't wait any longer. "As for the father of Po, the protagonist of "Kung Fu Panda", Father Goose, it can't be Po's biological father. Then Po's biological father who is it?"

This is also the question that all viewers have after watching the movie.

It is impossible for a goose to give birth to a panda. This is unscientific.

Abao was picked up by Father Goose.

Who is the biological father?
There must be a reason for this.

After all, the director of "Kung Fu Panda" is Lu Chen, a director everyone is familiar with.

Director Lu has always been a detail freak.

The movie is full of details, and there must be a reason for this arrangement.

"'Kung Fu Panda' is a grand collection of stories in my mind." Lu Chen answered a question from a reporter from the Film News, "And a movie has a limited time limit and it is impossible to film all the stories. If I have the chance, I will I will let everyone know about Abao’s biological father.”

At the beginning, it was a hook specially reserved to make the second part more popular.

"Director Lu, what do you mean, there will be a second part of "Kung Fu Panda". When will it be released?"

"Director Lu, is the second part of "Kung Fu Panda" about Po's father?"

"Director Lu, are you planning to get involved in animated movies, give up live-action movies, and want to devote yourself to the creation of animated movies?"

The reporters below asked questions one after another.

"Kung Fu Panda" is now a hit, and countless audiences walked into the cinema to watch it.

They all gave the film a very high evaluation, saying that "Kung Fu Panda" is already the world's top animation film and will be the benchmark for future Chinese animation films.

So now as long as you report on "Kung Fu Panda" related matters, you don't have to worry about no readers buying it, and the sales of newspapers and magazines will also increase significantly.

"Everyone asks so many questions at once, which makes it impossible for Director Lu to answer." Sabei stepped out to preside over the overall situation, so as to avoid the chaos of the press conference. Anyway, it was broadcast live, "Everyone asks one by one, don't worry, Director Lu today When I have time, I will definitely answer everyone’s questions one by one.”

After speaking, he looked at Director Lu again.

"As for the second part of "Kung Fu Panda", I have no plans yet. After all, the first part is still in theaters, and we need to make plans based on the results of the first part." Lu Chen began to answer the reporters' questions, "As for In the future, I will only make animated films, so if I ask this question, I probably don’t pay attention to other news about my work, and I will have another film about Xindongfang Education Group.”

"Director Lu, the production cost of "Kung Fu Panda" is hundreds of millions of dollars. Why do you spend such a large amount of money to make a Chinese animated film? Aren't you afraid that the film will not be able to make back its money?" a reporter from the Film News asked.

Before "Kung Fu Panda" came out.

Everyone knows that domestic animated films are dead.

The box office champion of domestic animated films, "Lotus Lantern" in 99 only had a box office of 2900 million.

Look at these data.

Who dares to invest hundreds of millions of dollars to shoot a Chinese animated film?

How is this different from burning money?

But Lu Chen single-handedly drove the popularity of animated movies.

"Kung Fu Panda" reached 5000 million on the first day!

Breaking through [-] million in three days!

In the era when live-action movies broke [-] million and were successful, it is already a miracle among miracles that an animated movie can break [-] million in three days.

Of course, the film is well-produced. The audience has never seen such an excellent domestic animation film as "Kung Fu Panda". Every second is a high-quality production, and the first second of the picture is a beautiful painting.

In "Kung Fu Panda", there are also shadow puppetry, ink painting and other quintessence of China, which are all displayed in the movie, including movie lines, many of which come from ancient poems.

Full of Hua Guofeng, it is so loved by Chinese people.

This is also the key to the film's success.

"Kung Fu Panda" is also very popular among children, who were shocked. It turns out that the pictures of animated movies can be so beautiful and real.

It also gave Lu Chen a group of children fans.

The previous "Transformers" and then "Kung Fu Panda" made children in China remember that China has a director named Lu Chen. This can be regarded as cultivating fans in advance.

"I remember, in 99, when I was studying in the director department of Beijing Film Academy, I saw "Lotus Lantern" at the cinema." Lu Chen said without blushing.

After all, in 99, it hadn’t come here yet, “The movie is really exciting, and it’s also an ancient myth of our country. In fact, many myths and stories of our country can be made into animated movies, but it’s a pity that "Lotus Lantern" is a domestically produced The last glory of animated films."

"As a film practitioner, I am really sorry. We really do not lack excellent animation talents, but what we lack is a market. Now "Kung Fu Panda" proves that as long as the film is excellent, there is a market. The reason why I spent hundreds of millions of dollars is that money is not important to me, what is important is that I want to make Chinese animation films stand on the top of Asia again, and even the top of the world.”

"Clap~"

After Lu Chen finished speaking, the reporters from the mainland, Xiangjiang, and Baodao all applauded with admiration in their eyes.

"Kung Fu Panda" has really had a great impact on domestic animation films, and it has given animation practitioners a boost. Now everyone is optimistic about future domestic animation films.

"Director Lu, you said just now that you are going to shoot a movie about Xindongfang Education Group." The reporter of the entertainment newspaper asked another question at this time, "It is rumored that Xindongfang gave you a large amount of original shares in order to invite you to direct. Dongfang is listed, I heard that you made a lot of money, so you are doing this movie for money, right?"

This is also something that has been rumored that Xindongfang went public some time ago.

"If I was short of money, I could definitely list Mars Film and Television." Lu Chen refuted what the reporter said, "As for me, I agreed to shoot because the subject matter is good."

"Xindongfang is just an entry point. The movie tells the story of the era when people went overseas to start a business. In that era, everyone's efforts made our country's economic boom later. This is a movie theme I have always wanted to shoot."

Of course Lu Chen was just doing it for money.

If Xindongfang had not agreed to give shares, it would not have agreed.

Although the theme of the movie is good, it also needs time.

But for the money, I can spare some time.

"Clap~"

The audience applauded again, and this time Lu Chen answered the question head-on, which was considered to have dispelled the rumors that he made a movie about Xindongfang for money.

……

A private jet is flying from China to America.

"Don't be nervous, come over and have a drink. The journey of more than ten hours is still a bit boring. Drink some wine for entertainment." Lu Chen asked everyone to relax.

After Lu Chen's attendance, it's about the Olympic press conference.

After resting at home for two days, I rushed to the United States to attend the European and American premiere of "Kung Fu Panda".

There were Chen Long, Zhao Liying, Zhang Jingchu, Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, Chen Kun and others on the plane.

Chen Long went to the United States to participate in the filming of "Rush Hour 3", and Zhang Jingchu did the same.

Zhao Liying, Huang Xiaoming and others came to film the scenes of "Partners in China" in the United States.

The American scene was filmed first, and Lu Chen happened to be on this side during this time, so he filmed the American scene of "Hua Guo Partners" first.

"Director Lu~" Zhang Jingchu poured a glass of wine and handed it to Lu Chen, his eyes filled with affection.

I knew that I was able to play in Brother Chen Long's "Rush Hour 3" because Director Lu opened his mouth, otherwise I would not have the opportunity to act.

You must know that the Chinese actress who starred in "Rush Hour 2" is the international movie star Zhang Ziyi.

Zhang Jingchu thought, as long as Director Lu is well served, and Director Lu is happy, he will praise himself with all his strength, and if he wants to be as popular as Zhang Ziyi, then there is no problem at all.

Zhao Liying, who was sitting on Lu Chen's right, thought beautifully about the next filming of "Hua Guo Partners" and being alone with Director Lu. This time when she came to the United States, she was the only one of the four female roles, so she had to find a good opportunity.

Lu Chen took the wine glass and looked at Huang Xiaoming and others, "Take it, do you need someone else to hand it to you?"

Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, and Chen Kun quickly picked up the wine glasses, but they didn't dare to let Zhang Jingchu pass it to them. This was Director Lu's female companion. How dare they enjoy such a blessing? If they did, they would be banned forever.

As for the three of Huang Xiaoming, although they are well-known in the mainland, they are still nervous when facing Director Lu Chen.

Director Lu's status is too high, the new godfather of Chinese films and the big boss, so dare to relax. If he relaxes, he will do something wrong, and he might have to say goodbye to the film and television industry tomorrow.

"Brother Long, I have to thank you for allowing Zhang Jingchu to appear in "Rush Hour 3." Lu Chen picked up his glass. Now that the company has too many actors, there are not enough opportunities to appear on screen.

Mars Films and Television has invested in several TV dramas this year, and there are many characters in the TV series, which can allow everyone to show their faces. Joining Mars Films and Televisions, there must be one or two opportunities to show their faces. As for whether they are popular or not, it depends on their own strength.

Chen Long immediately clinked his glass and drank it down, "Director Lu, you mentioned this before, and I agreed at that time, there must be a Martian film and television artist in "Rush Hour 3", besides, you have invited me to play you It’s a big production, I do small things, I should be the one thanking you.”

The tone was flattering.

Lu Daosuan is now the No. 1 Chinese-language film.

Now that Xiangjiang movies are in decline, mainland movies are already rising rapidly because of Director Lu.

In the future, mainland movies will be the mainstream market for Chinese-language movies, and if you want to mix in the mainland movie market, you must have two people, one is Han Shanping from the film group, and the other is director Lu Chen from Mars Films.

Zhang Jingchu quickly poured another half glass of red wine into Lu Chen's wine glass, because there are quite a lot of people on the plane now, otherwise he would have to drag Director Lu to the bathroom.

"Director Lu, "Kung Fu Panda" will be released in Europe and the United States and other countries." Chen Long picked up the wine glass and toasted, "I wish in advance that "Kung Fu Panda" will be a global hit."

Chen Long was very honored to participate in the dubbing work of "Kung Fu Panda", dubbing Po.

Now Po, the protagonist of "Kung Fu Panda", has become extremely popular in China, and his popularity has surpassed the five mascots of the Olympic Games.

The audience is thinking that if "Kung Fu Panda" had come out earlier, Po would have been designated as the mascot of the Olympic Games.

Of course, Fuwa Jingjing, one of the five Olympic mascots, is also based on a panda.

As for foreign countries, "Kung Fu Panda" is also very popular now.

"Kung Fu Panda" has a particularly high reputation among Chinese movie fans. In addition, European and American media reporters and European and American audiences who came to China to watch "Kung Fu Panda" all gave the movie very high praise.

So now European and American audiences are looking forward to the release of "Kung Fu Panda" and want to experience this animated film full of Chinese culture.

"Brother Long, let me lend you some good advice. When "Kung Fu Panda" becomes a big hit, I will definitely come to the crew of "Rush Hour 3" and treat you to a drink." Lu Chen and Chen Long drank again.

This time I came to the United States, although I came to participate in the screening of "Kung Fu Panda" in the United States.

But more importantly, he presided over the post-production work of "Iron Man" and "Batman: The Dark Knight", including filming the scenes of "The Chinese Partner" in the United States.

"Director Lu, I'll pour you some wine." Zhang Jingchu smiled even more. Director Lu said that he was coming to the crew of "Rush Hour 3", so there was still a chance to meet him.

But tonight's opportunity is even more cherished.

You can't let Director Lu go to Zhao Liying's room, you have to find a way to let Director Lu come to your room.

　Thank you for your support, and thank you for your support along the way!
