Chapter [-] Zhang Yi's new film

Zhang Yi did not direct the sequel of "Ip Man", which was expected by Hong Jinbao and others. After all, Zhang Yi was becoming less and less interested in movie sequels.There are even rumors that Zhang Yi does not even plan to direct the sequel of "Jurassic Park".

Zhang Yi probably wouldn't have filmed the sequel of "Resident Evil" if it wasn't for Daheng Shao.However, I have to admit that the sequel of "Resident Evil" is the most successful among many movie sequels.

Although the third part of "Resident Evil" directed by Lan Naicai has achieved good results in box office and word of mouth, it has to be said that it is not as classic as the first two.

"I want to use the original team, Ms. Zhao's place, I'm afraid you will come forward!" Hong Jinbao looked at Zhang Yi and said immediately.

Miss Zhao is naturally Zhao Yazhi who played the role of Ip Man's wife Zhang Yongcheng.

"I heard that she made a comeback last year and filmed a TV series called "Moment in Peking". It should be no problem for Brother Sanmao to come forward." Zhang Yi looked at Hong Jinbao and said immediately.

"I've actually tried it out. She was a little hesitant. There were other reasons for the TV series filmed last year. She still can't officially come back." Hong Jinbao said immediately, "If she is missing in the sequel of "Ip Man", it will inevitably be a bit of a mess." It's a pity. The Zhang Yongcheng played by her has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people."

"Then I'll give it a try. Ms. Zhao will definitely buy my face with one movie, but she rejected my invitation for "Mythology" at the beginning." Zhang Yi nodded and said.

As Hong Jinbao said, Zhao Yazhi's Zhang Yongcheng is indeed classic and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If the actor is changed in the sequel, there will inevitably be some shortcomings.Although Zhang Yi didn't shoot this movie, and even whether he invested or not depends on the situation, he just looked at the face of Hong Jinbao and others.It's also worth his presence.

In fact, Zhang Yi didn't know that Zhao Yazhi had some scruples about coming back because he rejected Zhang Yi's invitation at the beginning.That's why I went to Taiwan to develop and took over the "Moment in Peking".

Zhang Yi cooperated with Debao Film Company to film the sequel of "Ip Man", and the original cast starred in it. The only regret is that Zhang Yi did not direct this film.but.Zhang Yi participated in the creation of this film.

The sequel to "Ip Man" tells the story of Wing Chun master Ip Man after he came to Hong Kong. This is undoubtedly good news for Hong Kong locals.However, we have to know whether this film will show Bruce Lee as a child.

In Hong Kong, Zhang Yi worked repeatedly, wrote screenwriters, and invested in several films.But there has been no news of his own new film.

What to shoot?Zhang Yi didn't think about it for a while.

"Prehistoric".Zhang Yi really wanted to shoot it, but unfortunately the special effects technology has not yet achieved the desired effect, and shooting it is just a waste of things.As for the others, either there is no interest.Those who are interested still have to run aground because the special effects technology has not been achieved.For example: "Inception"!

The visual shock shown in "Inception" is naturally still impossible to achieve with today's special effects technology.Especially the dream crash.High special effects requirements are required.After all, you can't really build those buildings that appear in your dream to the seaside and blow them up.

Be used to throwing hands at the shopkeeper.Suddenly he stopped making movies, and Zhang Yi became more relaxed.

"Why don't you attend this year's Oscars ceremony? This time you are nominated for the Best Adapted Screenplay Award again?" Zhou Huimin said to Zhang Yi with a smile.

The shortlisted film is naturally "The Shawshank Redemption" that was handed over to Bali Diller.This film was not only nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay, but also won Best Cinematography, Best Sound, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, etc.

The original version met "Forrest Gump" and the two films were equally good. Unfortunately, "Forrest Gump" had an advantage in other aspects, which eventually led to the defeat of "Shawshank Redemption".

This time, because of Zhang Yi's appearance, it was released a few years earlier, so I don't know how many awards I can win.

What's more, in the 61st Oscar, there seems to be no film that can compete with it.

"Forget it! You know I'm not interested in any awards." Zhang Yi waved his hand and said.

Although the box office of "The Shawshank Redemption" is not very good, but now it has been shortlisted for so many Oscars, it can be regarded as a chance for Jiying Film Company to shine.

However, as the boss, Zhang Yi has no interest in participating.

Thinking of "The Shawshank Redemption", Zhang Yi rang out "Forrest Gump", which defeated it at the beginning.This movie seems to have swept away not only the Oscars, but also the box office.The North American box office is as high as more than 3 million U.S. dollars, and the overseas box office is more than 3 million U.S. dollars.And its production cost is only more than 5000 million yuan.

"Shoot it!" Zhang Yi suddenly laughed as he thought of this.

"Shoot it? Shoot what?" Zhou Huimin looked at Zhang Yi suspiciously and asked.

"I know what movie I want to make." Zhang Yi smiled, and then said, "I want to make an American movie, to earn their money and win their awards."

"Hehe. You can definitely do it." Zhou Huimin was taken aback when she heard that, then smiled and said.

To make this movie, you must first get the copyright of the movie.

I don't know if this film is still in the hands of the author of the novel, Winston Glum.

Zhang Yi naturally didn't need to go to the United States to win the copyright. He directly called Bali Diller and waited for news in Hong Kong.

The news of the copyright of "Forrest Gump" did not come, but an expected but unexpected good news came.

"The Shawshank Redemption", a tragic classic film, without the sniping of "Forrest Gump", shined brilliantly at the 61st Oscar, winning Best Director, Best Picture, and Best Film. Seven awards for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Sound, Best Cinematography, and Best Adapted Screenplay have become the biggest winners of this year's Oscars.

As soon as this happened, it immediately caused a sensation.Zhang Yi once again became the focus of the media.

Zhang Yi won the second Oscar statuette, although it was still because of the screenwriter, but the statuette is the statuette.What's more, that film was produced by Zhang Yi's film company.

Zhang Yi did not participate in this year's Oscars, but his participation in this year's Oscars has left behind his legend.

"Boss, congratulations!" Bali Diller's excited and joyful voice came from the phone.

However, on the other end of the phone, Zhang Yi looked very calm, and said, "We're just happy with each other. What happened to what I told you last time?"

"Forrest Gump copyright?" Bali Diller said.

"Yes!" Zhang Yi said.

"The copyright is still in the hands of Winston Glum. He was hesitant at first, but he immediately agreed as soon as the Oscars were over. Boss, you adapted Stephen King's novel and won seven Oscars. I'm afraid that guy I can't find a better candidate." Bali Diller said immediately.

"Really won?" Zhang Yi's tone showed a slight emotional fluctuation at this time.

Bali Diller on the other side of the phone naturally heard the emotional change in Zhang Yi's words, and was a little puzzled at once, and vaguely guessed something.

"The Shawshank Redemption" won seven Oscars, and his boss was not surprised at all. Even if he knew in advance which awards the film had won, he would not be so calm.

At this time, there was a change in mood, and the only explanation was that this "Forrest Gump" might be more violent.Not only will it gain a lot of money at the Oscars, but it will also be the same at the box office.

"Naturally! Boss, have you already written the script?" Bali Diller asked immediately after hearing this.

"It's finished! You can start the preparations. I will be in the United States in a few days, and my new film will be "Forrest Gump"!" Zhang Yi said lightly.The tone returned to calm.

"What, you shot this film yourself?" Bali Diller was a little surprised when he heard that.

He still knew Zhang Yi well. His boss pursued visual shock in making movies, and most of them were aiming at the box office.As for any awards, in his opinion, they are just floating clouds, not as real as the box office.

He actually wants to shoot "Forrest Gump" himself!

Bali Diller had read the novel "Forrest Gump". In his opinion, this film was not suitable for Zhang Yi to shoot.Like everyone else, he believes that Zhang Yi can handle commercial films with ease.But I am a little skeptical about making such a film that is more artistic than commercial.
