Chapter [-] Who Starring

Make American movies, earn American money, and win American awards.

It's definitely a joy to have.Therefore, Zhang Yi has great interest in filming "Forrest Gump".

Bali Diller doubts Zhang Yi's control of this type of film, and others are no exception.

Jiying Film Company is about to start filming and change to Winston Glum's novel "Forrest Gump", which is not a big deal at all.But this movie has a relationship with Zhang Yi, and it immediately attracted great attention.

No.60, Zhang Yi did not participate in the first Oscar ceremony, but he won the Oscar statuette again. As a Chinese, he won it for the second time, which is an extremely sensational event.Moreover, both times it was awarded for the screenplay.

"Forrest Gump" was changed by Zhang Yi himself, so that's nothing, after all, he just won the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay.Adapting a novel is obviously something he is good at.

But for this film, he is not only the screenwriter, but also the director.

As the director, Zhang Yi can be called a great international director.No one will doubt his ability to control a film.Especially the control of the big scene, it can be said that few people in the whole world can compare with it.Whether it is "Mythology" or later "Mulan", directors who can control the war scenes are almost rare.

It is one thing to be able to control a commercial blockbuster, but another thing to be able to control a literary drama.

Zhang Yi has always given people the impression that commercial superfluous art.Although "The Love of Ghosts" tells a love story, it also involves special effects, so it can't be regarded as a pure love movie.

What's more, Zhang Yi's three films have checked a total of 20 billion US dollars at the box office, and they occupy three of the top five seats in the global box office.It is difficult for such a director not to be labeled as commercial.

After "Mulan", there has been no news of Zhang Yi's new film.Many movie fans are eagerly waiting, but it is only rumored that Zhang Yi has invested in several movies in Hong Kong from time to time.And his own.But nothing happened.

As soon as the Oscars ceremony came out, Zhang Yi won the statuette again. While the media was getting excited, there was news of Zhang Yi's new film in the United States.This makes people have to suspect that Zhang Yi is taking advantage of this wind.

But "The Shawshank Redemption" swept the Oscars, but Zhang Yi did not attend.If he wanted to take advantage of this advantage, why didn't he go to the Oscar award ceremony?

In any case, Zhang Yi's new film has already been settled.The media immediately reported it.Now, the world's media knows that as long as there is news about Zhang Yi.Then don't worry about sales.

There are more and more reports about Zhang Yi's new film "Forrest Gump", and fans are getting to know more about Zhang Yi's film.

But the more they understand, the more disappointed many people feel.

A movie about Americans, but also a story about congenitally retarded.Especially movie fans in Southeast Asia and other places are obviously a little disappointed.

For Zhang Yi's later works, the movie was not a big production, and the movie did not bring shocking enjoyment to people visually. Not to mention "Jurassic Park".Even the last "Mulan", which is completely ancient oriental, has unparalleled shocking battle scenes.

But this time shooting a mentally handicapped movie.Although he also participated in the Vietnam War, he didn't have many roles.No one knows that if Zhang Yi wanted to film the Vietnam War, he would definitely not choose the protagonist as a mentally handicapped person.To shoot the big scene of the Vietnam War.The protagonist must be like Rambo in "First Blood".

Disappointed, but also looking forward to.

And the most anticipated one is undoubtedly the American movie fans.However, the American media is not optimistic about Zhang Yi's shooting of this film, and many media are there to sing bad news.but.Zhang Yi didn't pay attention at all.

After staying at home for a few days, he took Li Xiao and others to Los Angeles again.

The adaptation of the script by Zhang Yi has been completed, and the preparation of the crew will naturally be handled by Bali Diller.He also has a producer and producer title on at least this film.

"Boss, this is Mr. Winston Groom, the original author of the novel!" Bali Diller brought a person to Zhang Yi's residence, and then said to the person, "This is Zhang Yi, the boss of Jiying Film Company." .”

"Hello!" Zhang Yi said with a smile.

"Hello! You look younger than the rumors say." Winston Groom said while holding Zhang Yi with a smile, the shock in his eyes never dissipating.

He naturally heard of Zhang Yi's name, he is a very legendary figure.At such a young age, he has created miracles one after another.Many people say that his talent has reached the level of a monster.

A successful young man, but without the slightest hint of arrogance.Being approachable, it is difficult for people to have a trace of disgust.Is this how he feels?Is it true that practicing Chinese Kung Fu can really cultivate one's morality?

"Hehe, the boss is only 22 years old now. He is naturally young." Bali Diller said with a smile when he heard this.

Glum smiled and said: "It's hard to imagine that the famous Mr. Zhang is only 22 years old. Although I have heard of it before. But as a Chinese saying goes: It is better to meet than to be famous."

"Mr. Winston Groom also understands Chinese?" Zhang Yi was a little surprised. Glum's last sentence was actually in Chinese, but it was a little unfamiliar.

"Hehe. I just know a few sentences, understand a little superficial, and I just learned it not too long ago. It was only after I watched Mr. Zhang's last film "Mulan" that I became interested in Chinese culture. I thought I had posted it before. De is the earliest example of a heroine. But after reading your "Mulan" and checking, I found out that Hua Mulan was many years earlier than Joan!" Glum smiled.

"Boss, Mr. Winston Groom is here to hear about this film and also read the script!" Bali Diller immediately spoke out the purpose of this time.

"Then read the script first." Zhang Yi nodded, and then said to Lin Xiao, "Go to the study and get the script down."

"Mr. Zhang, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just..." Winston Groom said with some embarrassment.

Zhang Yi waved his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Winston Groom, I also write novels. I understand your feelings. My novels are adapted into movies, and I will be very concerned. Whether it is a script adaptation, It's still an actor's choice."

"Hehe, I forgot that Mr. Zhang is also a novelist. I haven't read your Chinese novels. But I have read "Jurassic Park", "Resident Evil", and "Harry Potter" not long ago But, especially after watching "Harry Potter", did I meditate, but I couldn't feel the magic element, and I once thought I was a Muggle who couldn't practice magic." Hearing that, Glum laughed Said.

Zhang Yi took the script from Lin Xiao and handed it to Glum.But Glum was not polite, and quickly looked at it while holding it.But Zhang Yi and Bali Diller didn't bother him, they just sat quietly.

After a long time, Glum closed the script, took a deep breath, then squinted his eyes to remember for a moment, smiled on his face, looked at Zhang Yi, and said: "As expected of the person who won two Oscar screenplay awards, Mr. Zhang Yi adapted This script is very good, very good!"

"If Mr. Glum has no opinion on the script, then we will shoot according to this script." Zhang Yi looked at Glum with a smile, and then asked, "I don't know what advice Mr. Glum has for actors?"

"In this regard, Mr. Zhang, you are much more professional than me. I wonder who Mr. Zhang plans to play Forrest Gump?" Glum said with a smile.

"Tom Hanks!" Zhang Yi said lightly.

"Hehe! I've watched "Fly to the Future" starring Tom Hanks. It can suddenly grow a 12-year-old boy into a 36-year-old man. The performance is vivid and there is absolutely no problem with his acting skills. Unfortunately, although he was nominated for this The Best Actor at the Oscars, but was given to "The Shawshank Redemption" written by Zhang Yi!" Glum smiled and said, "I heard that Mr. Zhang did not participate in this year's Oscar awards ceremony. to him."

Zhang Yi smiled, but if Glum didn't say anything, Zhang Yi really wouldn't think of Tom Cruise starring in this movie.However, in Zhang Yi's memory, even if "The Shawshank Redemption" hadn't been advanced, it would be impossible for Tom Cruise to win the Oscar for Best Actor with "Fly to the Future".
