China Entertainment: Director’s happiness is so simple

In the afternoon of the same day, the portal released the news that Nolan visited the set of "House of Flying Daggers".

As the director of "Batman" currently considered by the public, Nolan has an intersection with Lao Mouzi, which immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

But what attracted more attention was Zhang Weiping's evaluation of Lu Ping An.

"Not in the mainstream", "there is a gap" and so on.

Many fans of Lu Ping An were very unhappy.

However, most people who eat melons still agree with Zhang Weiping's evaluation.

After all, Lao Mouzi has a better mass base than Lu Pingan. Even if "Hero" has a bad reputation, it will have little impact on Lao Mouzi, who has a thick health bar.

In addition, Lao Mouzi has become the director of 8 Minutes in Athens next year, and the blood bar is even thicker.

Now a Hollywood director is visiting again.

In fact, Zhang Weiping's strategy was quite successful.

In the minds of many people, Lao Mouzi is indeed several levels higher than Lu Pingan.

Of course, in addition to the evaluation itself, reporters and media also paid more attention to the contradiction between Zhang Weiping and Lu Pingan.

As early as when "Heroes" and "Source Code" were released, everyone was already paying attention to the contradiction between the two.

But later, with pressure from above, Lu Ping'an and Lao Mouzi behaved like hello and me when they met in private, so the topic was dropped.

Later, Lu Pingan achieved success in Hollywood, and Zhang Weiping publicly dissed Lu Pingan for being "unpopular."

This brought the conflict between the two to the forefront again.

But the topic was still not amplified because Lu Pingan did not respond.

But it's different now. Zhang Weiping mentioned it again and again. It's hard not to pay attention to how deep the conflict between the two is.

So the media from all over the world started reporting on it.

There was discussion about Lao Mouzi's participation in the filming.

There is discussion about the level of road safety.

There is also a large part discussing the ins and outs of the conflict between Zhang Weiping and Lu Ping'an.

There are many people online.

Soon someone released detailed information.

Then many netizens learned that the conflict between the two had existed since the release of "Source Code".

"Source Code" was released and became a hit at the box office, and "Heroes" began to block it.

In response, online comments quickly became one-sided:

“‘Heroes’ is not as good as ‘Source Code’, so he has the nerve to stop it?”

"'Hero' is rubbish. I just listened to his promotion and hype at the time. After watching it, I regret it to this day."

"Lu Ping'an never responded, only Zhang Weiping was jumping there."

"Having a box office of over 100 million yuan in Hollywood with a small cost, twice, is this still unacceptable to Zhang Weiping?"

"It's just that "Source Code" has such a high global box office, but in his eyes it is not considered popular."

"Zhang Weiping has a problem with his character."

The internet is abuzz.

I don’t know if there are navy soldiers, but Lu Ping An will not admit it anyway.

In reality, the sound is not loud.

After all, the matter hasn't gotten serious yet, it's just that the conflict between the two has been made public.

Of course, reporters have also begun interviewing people from all walks of life in the industry.

This kind of melon, as long as the top is not pressed down, is a feast for reporters.

However, just as the incident began to unfold, reporters from all walks of life suddenly received invitations to a press conference from Star Film and Television.

The reporters were very excited. Everyone guessed that Lu Ping An would respond directly!

What a great melon, big melon, I have to go in and take a few bites!

For a time, countless reporters gathered at Star Film and Television.

However, when the press conference began, all reporters were dumbfounded.

I saw Batman director Nolan and Lu Ping'an appearing together, along with Hu Qingquan, China Film Han Sanpin and an unknown foreigner.

Everyone was confused, what is going on?

Without thinking much, Hu Qingquan introduced it first.

In addition to everyone we all know, the identity of a strange foreigner was also revealed in the end: the top boss, Wattsberg.

Then Hu Qingquan got to the point: "I invite everyone here because I want to announce the news that the director of "Batman" this time will be Lu Ping'an."

With a bang, the whole place exploded.

. . . . . . .

Lu Ping'an: "How did you become a director? You just recommended yourself. I was filming in the United States at the time, and I was inspired by seeing Batman in my spare time. Batman is a very popular movie image in the United States. This character has some similarities with myself. , also because of the empathy between the parents’ death, and because this is not a new character, it will be much easier to create, and then the script of the trilogy will be created.”

"At the beginning, I didn't plan to implement the script, because the Batman IP is owned by Warner Bros., and the project is too big for me to handle. However, Peak boss Wattsberg decided to support it on the spot after reading my script. After negotiating with Warner and finally successfully leasing the IP, I became a producer and director."

Reporter: "You mean, this is a trilogy, that is, more than one movie?"

Lu Ping'an: "Yes, it's a trilogy, and this is the first one."

Wattsberg: "Will you make three movies? If the first one is successful, of course I will continue to shoot the next one. I believe Lu can handle it perfectly."

Lu Ping'an: "Are you confident? Of course, I never lose confidence in my works at any time."

Hu Qingquan: "How many Chinese elements will be added to this co-production? I know what you hope for, such as changing the protagonist to a Chinese or having one parent from China, or putting the place where he fights in China. In short, at least it will be Batman. It's a good idea to have Chinese ancestry, or the film at least be made in China, but it's not realistic for this movie."

"Every adaptation of a super IP like Batman will have many restrictions, and this time is no exception. There are many restrictions. You cannot make random changes. If you break the contract, you will have to pay a lot of money."

"If you think about it from another angle, you will understand. If Mr. Wu Cheng'en was still alive now and held the copyright of Journey to the West, would he let others blindly change it to say that Tang Monk is a woman?"

"So this time there will only be some domestic elements, and there won't be any important roles for domestic actors."

Han Sanpin: "Actually, the significance of co-production is not just the presence of domestic elements. In addition to this, there are also more valuable things, such as cooperation in behind-the-scenes production. Everyone knows that the Hollywood film industry is advanced and high-level, especially in large-scale production. We are far behind them in terms of production, and at the same time, there are very few opportunities for domestic practitioners to participate in and learn deeply because the threshold is too high.”

Hu Qingquan: "Yes, so this co-production is a good learning opportunity. In this co-production, in addition to Star Film and Television, Nortel and Beijing Film Studio will participate in the production of the film. I believe that after being deeply involved in a major Hollywood production, , can cultivate some behind-the-scenes talents with international vision and lay a solid foundation for future domestic commercial films."

Several people on the stage answered the questions carefully, with a full amount of information, sincere tone and full professionalism.

Although this co-production is not quite what I imagined.

But everyone is not too disappointed. After all, the current co-production model is exactly what Lu Pingan said, and it is the most in-depth form of cooperation currently.

Of course there is more excitement than that.

Lu Pingan suddenly became the director of Batman. The chief director can control the project.

This is a huge progress for the Chinese people!

In addition, Lu Pingan's becoming director also involves Zhang Weiping's statement this morning.

This is another big breakout point.

So soon a reporter asked: "What do you think of New Picture Chairman Zhang Weiping's evaluation of you?"

After hearing this, Lu Ping'an looked regretful:

"I saw the news and I was very disappointed."

"I feel that as the chairman of a top domestic film and television company, he should not say such things, but after thinking about it carefully, I think it is normal for him to say such things, because from his attitude towards movies Look, I think he doesn’t understand movies at all. He only knows how to hype. No matter whether the movie is good or bad, he will continue to hype it, and he will do whatever he can to hype it. For the sake of the hype effect and for his little profit, even if He does not hesitate to belittle his fellow countrymen."

"I just want to ask, you use foreign directors to give yourself a financial advantage and at the same time belittle your domestic colleagues. Does Director Zhang agree with you? If this approach was done during the Anti-Japanese War, what is the difference between this approach and a traitor?"

After saying this, the reporters were excited on the spot.

They like this kind of explosive counterattack so much!

That night, the news was published on major portals.

"Big twist! He is actually the director of "Batman"!"

"Safe road or not? Hollywood tells you their real choice!"

"Lu Ping'an: Zhang Weiping is a traitor!"

"Does Zhang Weiping understand movies?"

"Zhang Weiping's character has been overturned"
