Big names rise

"This is indeed a problem. It's too restrictive to make horror movies in China. It can't be too bloody to make Tsing Yi very unhappy. There can't be ghosts in the movie. The horror effect of my movie must be discounted by at least [-]%. There is no way to do it in the short term. , but I believe that the General Administration will release this restriction sooner or later. The previous censorship system was very loose, and nudity and ghosts were allowed. However, after market-oriented reforms, radio and television have become more demanding on these ideological things. It's not that there are no fish that slip through the net. Look, "Love Has an Afterlife" doesn't have ghosts, and it's still the male protagonist. Although "Zhang Zhen Tells Ghost Stories" contains ghosts in the story, it is almost impossible to tell the real from the real. It is the most terrifying The point is the fictional ghosts in these stories, after all, this is actually a ghost movie.”

Tao Quduo is optimistic about the SARFT, while He Mu hopes that after Sister Mei takes power, she can bring a new atmosphere to the SARFT. You know when it will be finished!"

"Don't worry, my current work will definitely focus on "Tomb Raider Notes". I am not in a hurry to open a studio. The work of adapting the material to the script can be handed over to my subordinates. I have cultivated many talents over the years. There are very few good horror screenwriters."

"Don't forget, you still have to shoot "Cold Heart 3". For your personal future, this is the most important thing. "Tomb Notes" can make way for it." He Mu reminded.

Not every Chinese director has the opportunity to helm the sequel of a blockbuster Hollywood movie. John Woo has "Mission: Impossible 2".Justin Lin has "Fast and Furious 345", but they have had successful experiences in Hollywood before, and the investors have confidence in them.Most of the Chinese directors in Hollywood have to start from scratch, and it is rare for a Hollywood newcomer like Tao Quduo to directly take the lead.

So for the young Tao Quduo, who is not yet a master, it is simply a pie that fell from the sky. If the domestic media, which has always worshiped foreigners and foreigners, finds out, the old Tao may be blown up. John Woo second?

However, no matter what the media said, Tao Quduo would definitely not drift away. He knew that there were many factors that contributed to his getting this rare opportunity.But not just because of his personal level.

First of all, he participated in the first script with the best reputation in this series, and he is the director of the Chinese version.This is a prerequisite for him to enter Jeff's mind as a backup director candidate.

Secondly, there are a large number of outstanding Chinese-American horror film directors in Hollywood, such as Wen Ziren, Huang Yiyu, and Yu Rentai. A plus.

In the end, it must be inseparable from the recommendation of He Mu, the leading actor of the film.Although Tao Quduo didn't know how deeply Rubik's Cube Pictures was involved with He Mu.But he is clear that the boss of Rubik's Cube Stark is He Mu's brother-in-law. Jeff made this decision without considering He Mu. Tao Quduo must not believe it.

He Mu didn't dare to be greedy for credit. He told Lao Tao that the second "Leng Xin" had a European style. Although the box office and word-of-mouth in the United States were not bad, the box office and word-of-mouth in Europe were excellent. The box office in Japan is also high.It is enough to make up for the [-] million box office drop in the mainland.

The main reason for the box office failure in the mainland is that too much content has been cut.Seriously affected the fluency of watching movies, otherwise even if the movie is not to the taste of mainland audiences, with He Mu supporting it, the box office would not be so bad.

Summing up the experience and lessons, Jeff decided to focus on the oriental style this time, and vigorously develop Japan, the second largest box office market in the world, and the mainland, the most potential market in the world, so he chose a company that is familiar with the censorship rules of the SARFT in the Mainland and has a wide reputation in Asia. It is very necessary to have a horror film director, and Tao Quduo is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

Because there is no Shuimu movie released recently, He Mu devoted himself to the filming of "To Youth", and basically passed several difficult performances, even the most embarrassing outdoor thrilling scene with Yang Zishan in the film. The love scene was also easily resolved by He Mu, and won the applause of the director Zhao Wei, but He Mu was worried that Zi Lin would see it in the future, and he would not be able to escape the punishment of kneeling on instant noodles. Teacher He, who seems to have old arms and legs, has not seen it for a long time. Actors benefit in this regard.

In terms of actors' benefits, I am afraid that the crew of "Search" is probably the best, and they can earn a girlfriend by filming.

Just in the past few days, news came out that Zhao Youting, a little-known Taiwanese student in the Mainland, successfully won the heart of the heroine Gao Yuanyuan in the film because of his role in the film. This matter has caused a lot of trouble in today's entertainment circle.

As an actor, Yuanyuan, who has appeared in the works of many famous directors such as He Mu, Du Qifeng, Wang Xiaoshuai, Zhang Yang, Lu Chuan, etc., may only be called a quasi-first-line, but as a beauty, Gao Yuanyuan is definitely super-first-line, and she is even better than Zhao Youting. They are quite different, and the two of them don't match well no matter how they look at it. Many people think that this is the hype of Shuimu Forest.

Coincidentally, Zhao Youting's other starring work, the Taiwanese action film "Ruffian Heroes: All-Out War" co-operated with Huang Bo, was also handed over to Shuimu Senlin for distribution in the mainland. Zhao Youting basically has no foundation in the mainland. If he has a relationship with Gao Yuanyuan The success of the hype is equivalent to solving the publicity problem of the two films at once, and the most direct beneficiaries besides the two parties may be Shuimu Forest, the distributor of the two films.

But He Mu knew that this was really not a hype. He asked Director Chen Kaige that this matter was true and that the two were really together.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, as long as a movie has a box office appeal, it must have a topic. If there is no topic, it can be artificially created. Since the media is interested in Taiwan's small fresh meat winning the big beauty from the mainland, it is up to them to report it. In this way It's a good thing for "Ruffian Hero" and "Search", which are scheduled to be released in June and August, respectively.

Speaking of topics, the most popular topic in the movie circle recently is probably that three Chinese movies are sniping Hollywood blockbusters. Even He Mu, who is on the crew, has heard of it.

The three Chinese-language films are Enlight Media's "Everyman", Singmei's "Killing Life" and Galloping Pony's "Golden Heist".

The selling point of "Pimp" is Huang Xiaoming's first time as a boss to invest in a movie. With the popularity of "Beijing Love Story" Zhang Xinyi and Zhang Yi, the director Yang Shupeng has made a few movies before, but his reputation is not obvious.

The director of "Killing Life" is He Mu's personal favorite Guan Hu. His TV series "Black Hole" and "Migrant Workers of Survival" have far-reaching influences, but the biggest selling point of this movie is probably the Golden Horse Best Actor Huang Bo, who is now a box office hit.

As for "Golden Robbery", the male and female protagonists are newcomers, and the director is Yang Qing, who has filmed "Night Shop". Ning Hao, the producer and supervisor of the promotional film, is also the first film invested by Ning Hao's Dongyang Yingyue Film and Television Culture Media Company. From the creation of the script to the shooting, Ning Hao's team is the team, and the film also has a strong Ning style , it is said that Ning Hao had the idea for this movie as early as when he was cooperating with Galloping Horse in "No Man's Land". At that time, he agreed to cooperate with Li Ming, but it was not completed until recently, because the director and the male and female protagonists have nothing to do Fame, so Ning Hao took on the main role of publicity.
