China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

【Modified】

Time flies by.

The news of the start of filming of "The Martian" has been released, and Guo Fan has temporarily joined the crew.

Guan Ling will return to the crew after attending the Hong Kong Film Festival.

The 37th Hong Kong International Film Festival will be held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
According to relevant media reports,

The opening ceremony of this year's International Film Festival was hosted by the festival's ambassador Miriam Yeung, and Guan Ling brought "Hong Kong Trip" as the opening film for the world premiere.

A total of eight classic films have been restored at the Hong Kong International Film Festival this year, and there are also rumors that a film investment conference will be held.

Since this is Guan Ling's first time participating in the Hong Kong International Film Festival, this year's film festival exposed a huge Chinese and English poster for Guan Ling in the most prominent position in the film and television exhibition hall.

The main color of the poster is slightly gloomy.

The chaotic Hong Kong subway and the bloody zombies in the picture give the whole poster an eerie feel.

But it also gave the audience countless shocks.

Initially, this position was intended to be reserved for Wu Baige, because his epic love movie "The Crossing" was about to start filming, and he wanted to use the Hong Kong International Film Festival to promote it.

But the film festival also knows what is important.

As soon as Guan Ling said he was coming, all resources were filled up.

Others can only stand aside.

At the same time, Chow Yun-fat's new film "Casino Tycoon" at this international film festival is also extremely high-profile. This new film plan announced by Poly Bona can be regarded as a continued collaboration between Bona and Wong Jing.

But this was also a contract signed before.

Ever since Wang Jing's movie "The Great Shanghai" grossed over 100 million yuan at the box office with such grandeur, Yu Dong's mentality has been a little broken.

Although the Hong Kong Film Festival gave face, Yu Dong has been following Guan Ling's lead ever since he came to Hong Kong.

Even though they released a concept poster of a gambling table, claiming that the film would star Chow Yun-fat and Xie Tingfeng, it did not attract much attention.

Even worse than some gossip.

Zhen Zidan also appeared at the Hong Kong International Film Festival.

Before the world premiere of "Visiting Hong Kong", the story between Zhen Zidan and Guan Ling made the popularity of this year's Hong Kong Film Festival reach a level that no one expected.

Zhen Zidan has been somewhat quiet this year.

Guan Ling helped him choose a way down the mountain.

And Guan Ling was still in front of him, the towering mountain.

The contrast between the fact that he had built a tall building before and its collapse now makes many stars sigh.

There were even some media outlets that were eager to see Guan Ling and Zhen Zi fight one-on-one.

This way, the Hong Kong media will have something to write about.

For example, "Director Guan Ling and Zhen Zidan were fencing, and the martial arts superstar was slapped in the face by the director!"

This kind of title is the kind that will sell like hot cakes.

But to the disappointment of the media, since Guan Ling appeared at the Hong Kong airport, she has not appeared in any picture with Zhen Zidan.

……

As March begins, "Beijing Meets Seattle" shot by Tang Wei is the first film released under Lingyun Media.

The film will be released on March 3.

It’s just that the publicity was not as loud as “Travel to Hong Kong”.

But the publicity was finally spread.

Tang Wei and others started traveling around the city at the beginning of the month to promote this love movie, hoping to get everyone to go to the cinema to watch a beautiful love story.

At the same time, Guan Hu's "The Cook, the Actor, the Scoundrel" also entered the promotion period.
As for Hollywood movies, "Die Hard 5" and "Oz the Great and Powerful" occupied most of the publicity.

Take "Oz the Great and Powerful" as an example. This magical 2.15D masterpiece created by Disney with an investment of 3 million US dollars was released in North America on March 3. It raked in 8 million US dollars in the first three days of the weekend, and topped the list with the highest weekly box office in North America since the beginning of 7911.

In the following week, it even withstood several aggressive new Hollywood movies, grabbing $4222 million and continuing to be the box office champion.

It can be said to be coming with great force.

So the pressure on the country is huge.

They were so scared that "Beijing Meets Seattle" and "The Chef, the Actor, the Scoundrel" actually moved their release dates forward by half a month. In their eyes, it would be difficult to compete with such Hollywood blockbusters, so it would be better to let Guan Ling take on "Travel to Hong Kong" to take on the challenge.

Anyway, the release date of "Travel to Hong Kong" has already been set and it will be released on April 4th.

Although this is in the April schedule, you can enjoy it during the May Day holiday.

It’s not a loss.

It is worth mentioning that the Hong Kong movie "Drug War" also did not dare to compete and decided to release it on April 4, so that it can also take advantage of the May Day period.

At the same time, temporarily avoid the limelight of "Travel to Hong Kong".

In this "Drug War", Gu Tianle plays an extremely cunning drug lord and also leads a gang of seven drug dealers. His main task is to make money by selling drugs.

And Sun Honglei was the one who arrested them.
When Sun Honglei was chatting about the movie with Guan Ling, he said with a smile that in this movie, the director specially designed a "big boss puppet" who seemed to control everything, but in fact the "Gang of Seven" was the manipulator behind the scenes. This also made Sun Honglei's anti-drug battle full of twists and turns and climaxes.

Sun Honglei was so excited when he was describing it that Guan Ling thought this guy had eyes.

……

2013 3 Month 17 Day.

noon.

Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, among the luxury hotels on the highest floor.

Guan Ling is meeting with a group of people who can be considered big shots here and in the entire mainland and Hong Kong.

A cocktail party is going on.

Although Han Sanpin and Ren Zhonglun did not come this time, Yu Dong, Wang Changtian, Feng Xiaogang, Gu Tianle, Cheng Long, Yang Zong and others were all here.

In fact, people have also come to the world.

Also here are Japanese director Takeshi Kitano, Korean director Kim Ki-duk, and well-known Beijing Film Academy screenwriters Mei Feng, Michelle Yeoh, Xu Zheng, Liu Yan and others.

There were also Indian directors, but Guan Ling didn’t know any of them.

But Guan Ling saw Ha Zhengyu.

Xu Zheng came to the Asian Film Awards to receive an award.

He knew he had to win the highest-grossing Asian film award in 2012.

The box office record of almost breaking 20 billion during the Lunar New Year holiday did make Xu Zhengchun very proud, even surpassing Chen Kai's excitement when he made "Along with the Gods: The Two Worlds".

Liu Yan was able to gather around Guan Ling and communicate with this group of bigwigs purely because of Guan Ling's face. Next to her was Zhong Liti. Both helipads were huge and eye-catching.

Hong Kong directors such as Wong Jing and Herman Yau were also present, but they could only gather together to communicate and were unable to join Guan Ling's circle.

Logically speaking, Gu Tianle shouldn't enter this circle.

But ever since he and Guan Ling co-founded One Trend in Hong Kong, anyone with a little common sense would know that Gu Tianle is no longer the same as he was before.

On the surface, he is an actor, but behind him is capital.

This time, One Touch has a share in the “Hong Kong Trip”.

Many films that are difficult to shoot in the mainland and difficult to pass the review can be made into good films that can pass the review by adding some Hong Kong investment and changing the story background. This is also the reason why Guan Ling insisted on planting an anchor point in the Asian financial dragon.

In fact, during the International Film Festival, the Asian Film Awards ceremony will also be held at the same time. The specific award ceremony is tomorrow, and the chairman of the jury is Liu Dehua.

The venue is the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center in Wan Chai.

But today, everyone attending tomorrow’s awards ceremony is gathered here.

It can be said that Hong Kong has been in turmoil these days.

Many domestic and foreign directors gathered in Hong Kong. It was rumored that Lu Chuan was originally going to come, but later he suddenly fell ill and was unable to come.

Guan Ling doesn't care about the other person's fun, it's up to them to come or not.

He knew that the news of his coming might have put too much pressure on the other party, but so what?

"Director Guan, we are all here to support your movie premiere today. Tomorrow, how about we go to the Asian Film Awards? As for the Best Film presenter, I think it would be better to let Director Guan present the award himself. How do you think?"

Liu Dehua came over with a glass of champagne and greeted and teased Guan Ling.

"Hasn't this candidate been chosen long ago? That's not good."

"It's okay. Director Guan came to the Asian Film Awards to give face to the film festival. Who can say otherwise?"

"I don't have to argue with everyone. As long as the award presenter is willing, I have no problem with it. We are all in Hong Kong anyway, so it's just a matter of going there tomorrow."

"Then I'll be waiting for you." Liu Dehua was quite excited.

Kim Ki-duk and Takeshi Kitano also came over to talk to Guan Ling. They were still looking forward to Guan Ling's movie premiere.

"Trip to Hong Kong" is not only fresh in subject matter, but also filmed by Guan Ling. Previously, the Chinese domestic media evaluated this film as a model of Chinese commercial films.

In fact, these two directors really want to try out some saltiness.

"Regarding the movie 'Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils', it will probably be released during the summer of this year." Gu Tianle also communicated with Guan Ling, "'Wushuang' will start filming in early April, and Director Guan will still need to give more guidance by then."

Mr. Yang from Emperor Entertainment Group also nodded slightly.

"This afternoon, I'm going to see what my cameo was actually about." Cheng Long held up his glass and laughed. "I'm going to Hollywood to shoot the movie Top Gun that Guy Noot asked me to do. I never expected that the scripts I saw in your hands have not been finished yet. I wonder if I'll be filming until I die."

"It's really sad to talk about it. We used those scripts to trick you into acting in "2012" and now we are sitting here, and things are really different from those days." Guan Ling was also a little emotional.

"For me, nothing is different. I am still a famous movie star in Asia and Hollywood. You are the only one who is different. From your early debut to your current success." Cheng Long raised his glass, "Life is really an inexplicable journey."

Guan Ling didn't answer, but the smile on his face remained for a long time.

"About the Qingdao International Film Festival, call me anytime if you have any questions." Cheng Long also knew Guan Ling's recent focus, and said softly, "I think everyone who came here today is willing to give Director Guan this honor. The question is whether Director Guan thinks it is worth it."

"I won't argue with you. If you don't go to see my movie, it will be your loss." Guan Ling still had a tough attitude.

Cheng Long did not refute.

Although this sounds a bit pretentious, Cheng Long agrees.

If "The Martian" premiered at the Qingdao International Film Festival, it would definitely be a loss for those who were unable to participate.

And the loss may not even be limited to the film itself.

Feng Xiaogang and others are very familiar with Guan Ling. She was invited to come here to support the Hong Kong International Film Festival.

This was the first time I met Guan Ling this year. I couldn't help but chat with Guan Ling about "Jianghu Lunjian Records". When we talked about Zhang Yimou's box office breaking 1 billion, Guan Ling's lips trembled slightly when she saw Feng Xiaogang.

Among the veteran directors, several big directors, except Feng Xiaogang, have now entered the billion box office club.

I have to say it is also a kind of pressure.

During the conversation, we talked about the prevalence of heavy-taste movies nowadays.

The bloody violence in "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" can even scare children to tears.

Luo Yongchang's latest kung fu movie "King Kong" even shows off hand-to-hand combat.

During the conversation, we also talked about Wu Yaohui's movie "Dear Mr. West 2: The Western Regions". The first part was a huge hit in Hong Kong last year, and it was the highest box office movie of its type.

So, the second plan was quickly launched.

Guan Ling pretended to be confused and didn't say a word.

This is the bad thing about Hong Kong. Some of the movies are really made.

He really reveals what should be revealed.

Nothing has changed in many years.

Anyway, he expressed the hope that the mainland could be graded as soon as possible, and asked Guan Ling to use his connections and asked Director Guan to pass on the message.

Guan Ling smiled and said, "Have you ever thought that the fact that the mainland does not have a film rating system is actually a form of protection for Hong Kong films? If there were a rating system, you would have been swept away long ago!"

Just a few words silenced the Hong Kong directors.

On the one hand, they thought what Guan Ling said made a lot of sense, but on the other hand, they suddenly felt a belated realization and felt a sense of fear all over their bodies.

Guan Ling also introduced Chen Sicheng to everyone.

It is also said that Chen Sicheng will be the new director in Lingyun Media's Billion Club.

Feng Xiaogang almost became famous after hearing these few words.

He kept looking at Chen Sicheng.

Feng Xiaogang was not familiar with the person, but he had seen his face.

It was just that Guan Ling's words made Feng Xiaogang feel that they were targeting him...

……

3pm.

"Travel to Hong Kong" officially premiered.

After about an hour of red carpet show, the 37th Hong Kong International Film Festival opened a new chapter under the spotlight of cameras and cameras.

And everyone knows that today is the opening ceremony and the most popular day of the Hong Kong International Film Festival.

After the Asian Film Awards ceremony tomorrow, many directors and stars will go back to their respective homes and find their own mothers.

Guan Ling's play will also be shown in front of major directors across Asia.

As the lights on the scene were completely turned off.

The dragon symbol appears and the movie officially begins.

At the beginning of the film, at a highway exit checkpoint, two epidemic prevention personnel are disinfecting vehicles because a small leak occurred in a nearby biochemical industrial zone.

As they were chatting, they introduced the beginning of the movie. Soon, the driver, while answering the phone, hit a red muntjac crossing the road, and blood gushed out.

The driver looked around and saw no one was there.

I was very anxious, so I got up and drove away.

And as the camera rotates.

The dead red muntjac suddenly stood up in a strange way.

Every joint of it seemed to be making a popping sound.

Many people attending the premiere narrowed their eyes and felt a little numb all over.

Is it so exciting?

It really starts off big, right?
Many people were numb! Is this really a zombie movie where you just get close to the face and start to fight? (End of this chapter)
