Big names rise

Chapter 397 The Father of the Chainsaw

In the United States, shortly after He Mu returned to China, Jeff called. He persuaded his boss, Jon Filheimer, to prepare to cast this script from the East that he liked very well.Although Jeff has the power to buy the remake rights of the movie without the consent of the company president, it is only a few hundred thousand dollars, and it is not a big deal to lose, but if he really wants to shoot, it must be Jon's nod. After all, the birth of a movie can range from several million dollars to tens of millions of dollars in production costs, which is not up to Jeff to decide.

Fortunately, Jon trusted Jeff as a capable person, and agreed to the plan after hearing him talk about it once. In this way, He Mu would be more confident when he mentioned that Hollywood adapted his movie.

Jeff told He Mu that the one who participated in the adaptation of the film with Tao Quduo was Ravenal. This name was very strange to He Mu, but when Tao Quduo heard the name, he knew more about his "Glass Heart" than he did. "The box office exceeded 6000 million and I was excited. It turned out that this old Lei was the screenwriter and actor of the blockbuster horror film series "Chain Saw". And was called "genius screenwriter" by chainsaw fans.

Raynell and James Wen are golden partners. They have collaborated on many classic horror films. He Mu told Tao Quduo that it was Raynell who was responsible for the adaptation. In fact, there is another hidden meaning: when the time comes, he will be responsible for this new The film's director is likely to be James Win.

James Wan is a Chinese director born in Malaysia and raised in Australia. His Chinese name is Wen Ziren.He is a hot horror film director in Hollywood, and he is an outstanding representative of Hollywood Chinese directors like "Fast and Furious" director Justin Lin, and they are good at making genre films.

When Wen Ziren was 27 years old, he and Ravenal jointly created the box office myth of "Chain Saw", prying away the global box office of 120 billion US dollars at a small cost of 102 million US dollars.And single-handedly created the classic "Chain Saw" series. Every Halloween, the nightmare brought by Mr. "Jigsaw" will severely frighten the American people. Wen Ziren is not the director of the next few films, because he doesn't like it. Repeat yourself, so I hid behind the scenes, just as a screenwriter and producer. Although James Wen directed "Dead Silence" and "Death Penalty" at the box office in the past two years, he is still the father of the chainsaw forever in the eyes of ult movie fans, and the master of horror , Wen Ziren and Lions Gate have a very good relationship.If he can be invited to direct this new film.The box office of the film will be greatly guaranteed.

It seems that everything is going in a good direction.He Mu was also very relieved. He told Tao Quduo to write scripts in Hollywood with peace of mind, and to learn more from Ravenal.Also, if "Glass Heart" has a day when the box office exceeds [-] million, he must come back to participate in the celebration banquet prepared by the company for him.

At this time, Lao Tao would ask sincerely, "Old He, do you think I really entered the Billion Box Office Club? This is my first film work!"

"It's impossible. You see, Jin Yimeng is also a virgin with over [-] million yuan, and she is still a woman. You have to have confidence in yourself. Maybe you are the James Wen of China." He Mu said without hesitation The praise and encouragement made Tao Qu more motivated, but He Mu himself was also very excited.If "Glass Heart" really has a box office of over [-] million, then Tao Quduo's brand will be erected at once, and it will be much easier for Lao Tao to make other movies when the time comes. [

He Mu did not release more news about the American version of "Glass Heart". After all, the director of this movie has not been confirmed yet. Whether Wen Ziren can direct it is still unknown. Now "Glass Heart" has enough topics, there is no need to continue Use some uncertain topics to hype, if the situation changes in the end, wouldn't it be a slap in the face.

After returning to China, He Mu continued his wedding photo tour with Zhang Zilin, but it was also intermittent, because "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" will be released soon, and as one of the actors, he was required to participate in the promotional activities of the film. This is the first time I saw the finished film of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China". The dense and uninterrupted star faces look really eye-catching. This is a grand event that has never been seen on the big screen in China. Even He Mu, who is a popular niche in the country, can't help it. Counting the stars, when you see a top star, you will also be amazed.Occasionally appearing in a play is not a big problem. Anyway, what everyone cares about is not the plot, but I have to say that the performances of the main actors Tang Guoqiang, Zhang Guoli, Chen Kun, and Wang Xueqi are still very professional and interesting, full of tension. The soy sauce cameo that humiliated so many big-name stars.

In order to cooperate with the publicity of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" and affect the progress of the wedding photo shooting, there is no way. This is a task that must be completed. If you want to make a good impression on Han Sanping, you have to participate. After all, there are more than 100 big-name stars in this movie, and it is enough for each event to have a few big-name stars to support the scene, so He Mu only needs to choose a few of the events to attend, and after several events, He Mu's performance was watched by Han Sanping In his heart, he also took the initiative to ask He Mu about the cooperation with Lionsgate Films about the "Glass Heart". Han Sanping didn't ask about the commercial secret of how much US dollars it sold, but only cared about the possibility of finally being able to make a film. After all, this is also the pride of mainland films. China Film Group's year-end summary is also an achievement worth mentioning. In addition, he also promised that if the final American version of "Glass Heart" is not so bloody and terrifying, then China Film Group will definitely think about it. If the method is introduced into the country, even if the introduction cannot be divided into accounts, the films can still be approved.

This is good news for He Mu, after all, it will not be linked to his interests, but it is definitely good news for Lionsgate Films. Now everyone can see the booming movie market in mainland China. Hollywood movies Merchants are also very greedy. In the past, the independent film studio Lionsgate Films was not as powerful as Warner and Universal, and the company was also famous for B-movies showing blood and residual limbs, so few of them could enter the Chinese mainland market. The movie, especially the blockbuster movie with the account share, does not have their share at all, and the overseas market is expanding slowly. Now with Han Sanping's promise, it is equivalent to adding a layer of protection for the movie's overseas sales. This is Jeff and the lion behind him. The door film industry is happy to see.

In mid-September, two lists attracted media attention. One was the Hurun Rich List, known as the "Pig Killing List", and the other was the shortlist for the 27th China Golden Rooster Awards.

He Mu took a break from his busy schedule and followed these two lists. There was a reason for his attention. He followed the Hurun Rich List because he saw his friend Du Wen on this "killing pig list". The marketing methods and the advanced management system from the United States have made Xiao Beverage a well-known domestic brand in just a few years. Du already has a fortune of 30 billion, and ranks more than 300 on the "Pig Killing List". He is really a young talent. He Mu felt that the sun was shining much brighter. A few days ago, Elena and Zi Lin mentioned the matter of baby kissing. He Mu rubbed his chin as if thinking about it.

Pay attention to the shortlist of the Golden Rooster Awards because He Mu’s name is on the list. Shuimu Forest once submitted “Nightclub” to the Golden Rooster jury, but only Yang Qing was nominated for the best new director. This kind of low-cost comedy is not a Golden Rooster judge. Fortunately, Bayi Studio's "One Shot 147" also applied for the Golden Rooster Award. He Mu was nominated for the best actor for his role as the billiard prodigy Ding Junhui. Last year, He Mu lost to Zhang Hanyu in the popular film Hundred Flowers Award , this time Zhang Hanyu is also a popular candidate. "Assembly", which led the Golden Rooster Awards with nine nominations, is still the favorite to win the award. He Mu actually has no confidence.

He Mu has never thought about participating in the Golden Rooster Awards since the day the shortlist was announced, not because he was afraid of losing, but because there was a conflict between the awarding date of the Golden Rooster Awards and his wedding date. During this time, he hoped to fully devote himself to his relationship with Zhang Zilin. During the wedding, he didn’t want to be distracted by other affairs, so he didn’t plan to attend the Golden Rooster Awards this time. In addition, He Mu also declined the invitation to the Bazaar Star Charity Night at the end of September. He never admitted that he didn’t want to spend money to do good deeds He Mu and Zhang Zilin also chose a foreign country for the wedding, so the preparation work was very heavy, even though it was handed over to a professional wedding planning company , but He Mu still stubbornly participated in the planning of every detail, and his wedding must be done with his own heart.

He Mu is now fully committed to preparing for their wedding, and no longer cares about world affairs. If there is anything He Mu cares about now, I am afraid it is the box office of "Glass Heart". Entering the film market is like a fierce tiger. He Mu knows that he can't stop the momentum of these more than 17 stars, let alone the trend of presenting the 100th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. I just sit and wait to die, I only hope that in the situation where "Founding of the People's Republic of China" dominates, there will be a glimmer of life for "Glass Heart".

The production cost of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" is actually not much. Although there are 170 stars participating, most of them are zero-paid, so the actual shooting cost is only 3000 million, most of which are used to ensure the quality of the film. Although it is a voluntary role, Han Sanping promised If the box office of the movie exceeds 18 billion, the actors will be given dividends, but the exact amount is not clear. He Mu doesn't expect much red envelopes for a guest appearance.

A film co-starred by 170 stars is absolutely unique in the history of Chinese film, but the record created by "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" is not limited to the large number of actors...
