Chapter [-] I hope you can give him a push

Escape cannot stop the war; fear will only make us lose more!

This sentence has exhausted the cruelty of war.In the face of war, there is only brave resistance.This is also a good reflection of the war in China that year.

Zhang Yi can be said to be the originator of movie trailers, and he is very familiar with how to use trailers to arouse other people's interest.This trailer naturally attracted great attention.Although it's not like before, I was looking forward to Zhang Yi's movie too much, and the wireless TV station that broadcast the trailer suffered an accident.

This time, Daheng Shao didn't complain to Zhang Yi anymore.

The investment in "Mulan" is actually not that big.Those props, because they were made in mainland China, didn't cost much at all.Those troops didn't give any money, but Zhang Yi paid for the food during filming.The prices in mainland China are not high, and although Zhang Yi's food is good, it doesn't cost much.

As for the remuneration of the actors, except Lin Qingxia and Zhang Guorong's higher ones, the others are almost negligible.And even the highest salary of Lin Qingxia was also paid a lot of money.It's about the same salary as those second- and third-tier actors in Hollywood.

The filming, production, and even publicity only cost about [-] million yuan, and it's not US dollars, but Hong Kong dollars!With this production cost and the way it was filmed, if the producers in Hollywood knew about it, it would definitely catch everyone's attention.

And Zhang Yi intends to disclose this news to Hollywood film companies, luring them to invest in films in the mainland and promote the development of the film industry in the mainland.Of course, the most important thing is to promote his studio.

However, this news has to wait for the successful release in North America and other places.

The trailer of "Mulan" has become a hot topic in Hong Kong and other places.Of course, many fans of Zhang Yi's book are a little confused.Why did Zhang Yi film "Mulan" instead of filming historical stories about the Three Kingdoms or the Ming Dynasty.after all.Zhang Yi once wrote books about the Three Kingdoms and the Ming Dynasty.Especially the book about the Ming Dynasty, which is Zhang Yi's first book.

Among those book fans, the fans of the Three Kingdoms are naturally the most, after all, there are too many heroes in the Three Kingdoms.

After that trailer played for a week, it was replaced with a new trailer, and that trailer was accompanied by a song.It took nearly 5 minutes before and after.

As soon as this novel trailer was released, it immediately aroused heated discussions in the media, and later learned from media reports that this is the mv of the movie's theme song.

The theme song "Mulan Star" is sung by a newcomer.A strange face, called Wangfei, is said to be a stage name.Although she sings well, people pay attention to her because of the songwriter of this song.

It has been a long time since Zhang Yi has produced any musical works. Even the soundtracks and theme songs of previous movies were all copied by Zhang Yi, and then they became less and less, and gradually disappeared.

So far, the episode "I have no money, I am shameless" has appeared in "Five Lucky Stars".It is still a must-order song for many karaoke halls.As for the songs that appeared in Zhang Yi's first film "Nightclub", they are even more talked about.

"Mulan Star", an atmospheric and poignant song.Let people listen to it for a long time and can't forget it.Through this song, people feel Hua Mulan's inner world.

Only then did Zhang Yi's fans understand why Zhang Yi didn't sing by himself.

Zhang Yi's film has not yet been released.But because of a song, a newcomer who made his debut became famous.

However, no one was surprised by this.Zhang Yi's star-making ability.Not to mention the whole of Hong Kong, who doesn't know the whole world.

Before the movie was released, the theme song of the movie has spread all over the streets and alleys. This is undoubtedly a good start.

In 1989, on February [-]st, there was still a month before the attendance, and "Mulan" was first released in Southeast Asia and mainland China.As for regions such as Europe and the United States, Zhang Yi intends to postpone the release.Not all movies have to be screened globally simultaneously. Although this film is very likely to be screened globally due to the extremely fast censorship in the mainland, Zhang Yi gave up.

The premiere night was star-studded.Zhang Yi and Zhou Huimin walked across the red carpet hand in hand, they didn't stop much, they just waved to the media and fans on the way.No interviews were given.

Apart from Zhang Yi, the last thing to pay attention to is of course Lin Qingxia, who is the leading actor in this movie.

"Mr. Zhang!"

"Oh, Boss Zou and Mr. He!" Zhang Yi looked at the two people walking towards him, smiled, and replied.

"Hehe, in front of Mr. Zhang, I can't bear the word 'boss'." Zou Daheng smiled and said, "After Mulan is released, I wonder what Mr. Zhang's plan is?"

In Zhang Yi's past films, almost all of them were ready for the next film as soon as the film was released. On average, there were only two films a year.However, Zhang Yi's filming speed is much slower now, but he can still achieve the speed of three films in two years.

After "Mulan" was released, according to Zhang Yi's past rules, ten times out of ten, he had plans for a new step.

However, Zhang Yi really has no plans for a movie this time.

"In terms of movies, I haven't thought of any stories I'm interested in. If it's possible, I might invest in a few films with themes in mainland China." Zhang Yi thought for a while and said.

Zou Daheng looked at Zhang Yi, and saw that there was nothing wrong with it, but he said, "A few historical movies? This kind of movie is a bit biased, and I'm afraid it won't be very good in the market. Of course, Mr. Zhang's "Mulan" is naturally No longer listed. After all, not every director has the box office appeal of Mr. Zhang."

"Mr. Zhang is probably trying to promote your movie theater in mainland China through these few films." He Guanchang interjected, "Although I have never been to Mr. Zhang's movie theater, but from the trailer of "Mulan" , but it can be seen that the scale is shocking.”

"Promoting the studio is indeed one of the purposes." Zhang Yi nodded, and said without denying, "However, with China's thousands of years of history, there are still many stories that can be put on the screen."

"Western audiences, I'm afraid they won't buy it." Daheng Zou said with a frown.Although, he is far inferior to Zhang Yi in grasping the market.Although Zhang Yi invests in historical films this time, he still has some doubts about the market for such films.

"Hehe. If they don't buy it, I won't lose money." Zhang Yi smiled and said, "If the script of "Mulan" can be opened in the European and American markets, it will undoubtedly make Western audiences curious about Chinese historical stories. And this This kind of curiosity will create a demand for this kind of film in the film market. As long as the filming is not too bad, the box office will be very impressive."

"Mr. Zhang has never thought about shooting modern or future movies?" He Guanchang said.

Zhang Yi looked at Zou Daheng and the two, smiled, and said: "Americans don't have a long history, so they can't make historical stories, so most of them are modern and sci-fi films. To attract the recognition of the North American market, filming Movies with sci-fi or heroic themes are more suitable."

Chinese people like to photograph the past, while Americans like to photograph the future.This may be a factor why their special effects technology has developed so fast.

Zou Daheng and He Guanchang have talked so much to themselves, but Zhang Yi has already guessed a bit.Cheng Long is now a symbol of Golden Harvest Company, but several big productions in a row have made great achievements in North America and other places, but Cheng Long has not been completely pushed to Hollywood.

Three films of "Rush Hour" have been filmed, but Cheng Long is still half popular in Hollywood, and he is in a bit of an embarrassing situation. It feels even worse than Donnie Yen who only starred in Zhang Yi's one movie.

Jiahe made a lot of efforts, but unfortunately the results were not satisfactory, so they approached Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi's success in Hollywood is indisputable.Moreover, the grasp of the international market is absolutely unmatched in Hong Kong.If Zhang Yi is willing to help, then Cheng Long's situation will definitely change.

"Mr. Zhang, I'm actually looking for you this time to ask for your help. Aaron wants to break into Hollywood, and I hope you can give him a push." ​​He Guanchang looked at Zhang Yi, stopped talking nonsense, and said this directly The purpose of coming here. (To be continued..)
