The set of "Bigg Boss".
Under night, casual workers.
People leave and disperse.
In the corridor of the old and dilapidated tenement building, there were several staff from the props team packing up the equipment.
From downstairs, several staff members stomped their feet, beat their chests, and groaned and cursed. The sound was so loud that many people in the crew felt very depressed and aggrieved when they heard it.
The sudden release of the drama "The Lame Man" really made everyone feel discouraged and helpless.
They then began to prepare for this movie, and they probably knew that this movie might create a genre. At least before "Bigg Boss", there was no real movie about the hero biography.
Being able to participate in history while making money, and even join a work that strives for excellence, makes many people excited.
Therefore, even if "Bigg Boss" is delayed again and again, many people are still very happy.
If you keep thinking about it, there will be repercussions.
You see, sure enough, this is the work that Wu Xiaozu has longed for. Maybe the brothers can follow the big brother Zu and win an Oscar... and gain both fame and fortune!
The cast of "Bigg Boss" is really top-notch, not only the cast, but the cast behind the scenes is also very impressive.
Needless to say, the producer Wu Xiaozu and the director Li Licheng, even though the latter is still a tool person, he is also an absolutely qualified tool person. Both Yu Hai and Mai Zhaohui participated in it and joined the director team and screenwriter team.
Jiang Zhiqiang and Chen Guofu serve as producers of this film.
In terms of photography, two ace cameramen Huang Yuetai and Pan Hengsheng, artists Yu Jiamin and Liang Lemin, costumers Li Bijun, lighting Zou Lin, the props artist hired Li Kunlong, the most senior person in the industry, and the editor was the big boss Tan Jiaming who even personally followed.
As for the music, it is said that Luo Dayou + Chen Xunqi are responsible for most of the soundtrack.
Not to mention that many people are part of Wu Xiaozu’s royal team.
To say luxury is not an exaggeration.
From here we can also see how much Mr. Wu is interested in this movie.
No one doubts that Wu Xiaozu will not be able to film this movie. There are even rumors within the company that this movie is a work that Director Wu has been thinking about for a long time. If it can be filmed, it has already become a fan of other movies. It has even been booked to enter the Venice Film Festival.
Tickets.
After all, it is also a cherished memory for him. After thousands of sails have passed, the beauty has faded away.
Now, I am taking steps forward with high spirits——
Click!
Someone else took the opportunity to kick me, and they kicked me so accurately and hard!
You stretch your legs? Your balls hurt! You pull your legs back? Your face hurts!
After all, the person who started filming this drama is named Wu Xiaozu.
Who is that?
Oscar-winning director!
Foreign language films also get Oscars.
Now, someone has filmed a film with the same theme and style in advance, and this film that was assembled early has become a "copycat" film!!??? There is really no reason to explain it.
That's why many people feel angry.
This kind of depression makes people feel indifferent even to the happy event that "Seven Sins" broke through the 60 million box office mark.
It's not that you are not good, it's just that your requirements are too high.
The box office of "Seven Sins" ended at 60.08 million. It did not surpass the box office performance of "God of Gamblers" and ranked third in the historical ranking of Hong Kong movies.
In fact, the success of this type of film has been due to the Oscars for foreign language films and the dividends from the Hong Kong stock market. Those investors have put a lot of effort into the box office...
After all, it is not a popcorn movie in the true sense, and it naturally lacks a lot of movie-watching foundation than "God of Gamblers: War Now!"
The North American and overseas box office combined totaled well over 100 million!
I’m talking about American knives, USA knives! (This project is in the process of being applied for World Heritage status.)
…
Not far from the production crew, there is a food stall and a side stove.
The vulgar fat white man Harvey Weinstein led the shoehorned ruffian Quentin around on a plastic stool, imitating Wu Xiaozu, Fei Cheng and others around him, and also picked up the meat slices in the pot with chopsticks.
that is……
Why aren't these hands divided? Hey, hey, hey...my fingers...don't twist the chopsticks...
Harvey Weinstein looked pitifully at Quentin, who was so comfortable with chopsticks that he was eating meat and drinking wine. He could only eat some vegetables and noodles...
This is not possible! Comrade!
With a shy face and pretending to be calm, he brought his bowl full of meat to him in front of Quentin's confused eyes, and then - hey, he can eat it by pulling it, inserting it, and rolling it.
Eat them together, oh, you can also eat them in parallel.
No more trouble in an instant.
Quentin watched Harvey eat the meat in his bowl one bite at a time, and then he was urged by the other party to quickly pick up the meat for him.
His face instantly dropped, and then, under the other person's eyes, he still picked up a meatball flatteringly, "Harvey, try this beef meatball, it will pee."
Looking at Pei Niu Wan who couldn't handle his chopsticks, Wu Xiaozu smiled and waved to the waiter next to him, "Please give me a fork."
"Wow, this tastes great."
Quentin bit into a dish bursting with sauce in front of him and chewed it with a long aftertaste on his face. He glanced at Fei Cheng, who was colluding with him, laughed and raised his thumbs up and asked, "Pony, what is this dish? It's delicious!"
"Nice pen!"
Fat Cheng also has similar odors. One likes mature women or old women, and the other likes sturdy women or Imposing women. In short, they both lack maternal love.
Seeing that the American veteran liked one of his favorite dishes, he excitedly pointed to the sauced beef on the table and said, "Niubu! Try it and replenish your body. Eat the beef, it's awesome!"
"Niu~~pen?~~"
Quentin imitated Feicheng's words, held Niu Huanxi in one hand, and recited "Niu Bi" while chewing big mouthfuls, his mouth full of odor: "Sure enough - Niu Bi~~~~~~~~~"
Feicheng looked at Quentin who was chanting "Niu Bi" with a proud look on his face, and couldn't help but blinked. It seemed like I had opened some amazing seal~~~
"Nice! o( ̄▽ ̄)d..."
Quentin howled at the top of his lungs and showed off his newly learned ancient Chinese adjectives, showing off his special pride and waving around with his thumbs up.
This made everyone around look at this snarling shoehorn face with curiosity.
Qiu Shuzhen was sitting next to Wu Xiaozu, and he was carefully peeling shrimps for him with his hands that were not wet with spring water.
"Wu, the editing of "Chinatown" is going very smoothly. You know, the post-production staff all love it. However, you must not refuse to cooperate with the publicity road show before the release."
Harvey took a fork and stabbed a beef ball, and added in an exaggerated manner: "You have no idea now about your status in the hearts of Asian Americans and many fans who love your movies. Believe me, I don't know how many people are looking forward to you."
Come to Hollywood."
The box office success of "Seven Sins" has indeed given Wu Xiaozu, an Oriental, some visibility in Hollywood.
But if we really want to take it seriously, we can only say that when it comes to adding, these businessmen from the beautiful country are better at adding!
Wu Xiaozu accepted Harvey's compliment with peace of mind.
As for the road show he requested, there was no reason for him to refuse. After all, "Chinatown" was his first film in Hollywood, and he really needed to be on stage.
Of course, Harvey came to Hong Kong this time, on the one hand because "Seven Sins" was a hit at the box office, and he really wanted to come here to add another character, and on the other hand, it was also for the promotion of the upcoming "Chinatown". At the same time, it was Wu Xiaozu who invited him to come to Hong Kong.
The Hong Kong Chinese Film Awards' film trade show platform.
No matter how bad Harvey's reputation was in later generations, there is no doubt that he was indeed an excellent film businessman.
Wu Xiaozu believes that he has his own unique insights into the aesthetics and market identification of these North American audiences.
We must never use our thinking to analyze the other party's slightly arrogant approach.
The first is that it's not worth it, and the second is... they are really in trouble.
In later generations, Western scholars made an analysis of China, which Wu Xiaozu found quite reasonable.
The reason why China is unique is that it is different from all our countries. It is a huge civilization wearing a mask and pretending to be a country. It is not a country like them at all!
Wu Xiaozu agrees with this understanding.
Therefore, if we have to use a simple and extended metaphor to describe the collision between civilizations in terms of culture or movies, there must be some differences.
For these Chinese-language films that will be exhibited at the exhibition, Wu Xiaozu needs Harvey to select some that can be brought to Hollywood for operation.
And what he believed in Harvey more was that he was very commercial, so he would not choose Chinese-language movies that would be liked by Europeans.
This is what Chinese-language films need... Only if they can be exported can more people realize that it is not necessary to make that kind of film to be able to operate abroad.
This time for the Academy Awards, Wu Xiaozu invited a large number of mainland filmmakers.
Including the Beijing Film Academy exchange students, all of them will be directly involved as volunteers for the Academy Awards.
