Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 636: "Name" is ready for release

ps: This picture has been eaten, let me fix it and see if it works.

Arkham Knight is about to be released.

Total domestic box office: 27.2 billion.

Total international box office: 13.6 billion.

This result is good, but it still does not surpass the achievement that Nolan and Bale achieved together in "The Dark Knight Rises".

After all, five years have passed and the US dollar has also expanded.

However, Warner was still very happy and promoted Zhou Mo in America, believing that he "has the opportunity to surpass Nolan."

As soon as this news came out, many of Nolan's fans felt uncomfortable and began to report Dog Warner's shortcomings online and deny Zhou Mo's level.

In the international director circle, which director has the strongest fans?

Nolan is definitely one of them.

However, before the fans' voices could be fully integrated, Warner invited Nolan again and asked Nolan to say:
"Blake Chow made really good superhero movies. He has a better grasp of superhero movies than I do."

So, the fans stopped complaining.

Instead, he changed the subject and began to praise Zhou Mo's level and his friendship with Nolan.

Zhou Mo didn't mind this kind of operation, he just found it a bit boring.

This happened once back when Warner first started working with Zack.

If we cook it now, it's not even like putting old wine in a new bottle, it's just reheating leftovers.

With this money, it would be better to give him the publicity money and let him make the movie.

"Zhou, congratulations on setting a record for DC superhero movies."

When Nolan was talking to Zhou Mo on the phone, the joy in his tone was simply hard to suppress.

He had been contacted by Warner people many times in the past two years, hoping that he could go back and take up the responsibility of the DC world again.

But he himself is not really interested in doing these things.

With so many good ideas, why do you stay in Chaoying all the time?
Now that he has Zhou Mo, he can be completely liberated.

"Thank you for your support, otherwise I would have to be distracted to deal with public opinion issues."

"These are all as they should be. As creators, we sometimes have to focus on our work, but as directors, we often do have to deal with things other than creation..."

"I am actually very grateful to my fans. Without their support, I would not have achieved what I have today."

The two directors took turns talking on the phone, sharing their troubles with having too many and too enthusiastic fans, which made the other people on the same channel feel helpless.

"Hey, you two, don't forget what the focus of our call today is, the movie plans after Arkham. You two have been off topic for a long time." Tom couldn't bear it anymore, and he turned on the public channel to stop the two from talking Versailles.

Nolan immediately changed the subject.

“Regarding the conception of The Raid, Aquaman, and Wonder Woman, I personally feel there is nothing wrong with it. There is no need to make the worldview as huge as Marvel has done.

In fact, I think the current Marvel Studios is already somewhat unable to control the plot. With so many characters, complex relationships, and lengthy plots, it will only become more and more difficult to film further down the line.

In addition, there is also the impact of the retirement of old characters, whether new characters can stand out, and whether the audience is willing to accept the new generation of Captain America, Iron Man, etc.

These are all questions.

In summary, I think Zhou’s idea of ​​keeping the scope within one line is very good. After filming this generation, he will restart and shoot a new story. "

Nolan spoke eloquently about his ideas, which made Zhou Mo admire him very much.

After all, it's Nolan. At this stage, we can already see signs that future Marvel superhero movies will gradually decline.

Marvel's situation took a sharp turn for the worse after "Avengers 4", which is closely related to its huge story line and characters.

Of course, the high accuracy content is also an important reason.

After listening to this, Tom took note of the situation and said he would report the situation to his leader later.

Now, he is also one of the investors of Zhou Mo's version of the DC series of movies, and naturally belongs to the same camp as Zhou Mo.

This time, Nolan was called in to analyze the situation, not really to listen to what Nolan said, but to find a director of sufficient status other than Zhou Mo to increase the credibility of Zhou Mo's plan.

After the call ended, Tom sent another message to Zhou Mo, saying that he would take care of everything at the company and asked Zhou Mo to rest assured in arranging the movie.

Zhou Mo has no objection.

This is why it is easier to get things done when you have your own people. …

After finishing "Arkham Knight", Zhou Mo rested at home for a few days.

It was not until Li Lu called him that he realized that there were only two days left before "In the Name of People" was broadcast.

"Sorry, I just finished the movie stuff these two days. I'll be there in a while."

Li Lu breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Zhou Mo's explanation.

"That's fine, Director Zhou. If you don't come, I'll really feel uneasy."

The cast of "In the Name" is really strong.

Although he is a director, there are many actors who are of higher status than him.

Even though these actors are actually easy to talk to, it doesn't mean that he can easily order them around.

Take publicity, for example.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Li Lu wanted to do a more exaggerated promotion, and it would be best if everyone could do it together.

But if you send messages to people like Chen Daoming, they won't object, but they will basically just make a symbolic appeal or two, and they will definitely not participate in any exaggerated activities.

Only Zhou Mo can do this kind of thing.

Li Lu: The baby feels sad, but he doesn’t say it.

Zhou Mo came to the crew, listened to Li Lu's idea, and nodded in approval.

"Director Li, your plan is very good. Exaggerating it a bit will help promote the TV series in its early stages. Let's do it according to your idea."

Zhou Mo's plan for "In the Name" was to make it popular from the very beginning, and it continued to be popular until the last episode, with no intention of fermenting or anything like that.

Li Lu was happy at first, then conflicted.

"Director Zhou, I'm afraid you have to tell me about this."

"OK, no problem."

Zhou Mo agreed immediately.

Half a day later, the crew itself, as well as the accounts of the main creators, updated their respective statuses at the same time.

Chen Daoming (Sha Ruijin): What does a xxx like him need a sniper rifle for?
Zhang Zhijian (Gao Yuliang): How high a position does one have to hold? This is the limit.

Wu Gang (Li Dakang): You are finally willing to get a divorce.

Xu Yajun (Qi Tongwei): You are my woman, and I, Qi Tongwei, will definitely be responsible for you.

Huang Zhizhong (Hou Liangping): Hey, why are you arresting me?
……

There is no doubt that these lines were deliberately chosen to deliberately attract traffic to the show.

The play "In the Name of People" is not a model opera with clear distinctions.

Each character in it is more complicated.
In other words, it is relatively close to reality.

A typical example is Sha Ruijin.

As the leader of the action, why do so many viewers feel a "settlement screen" after watching "In the Name"?
This can be seen from the following passage.

"I'm not talking about others, I'm talking about myself. I've been doing this for many years, and basically I've succeeded in everything I did. If I don't want to do something,
Yes, but very few.”

This sentence alone highlights the complexity of "In the Name of People".

As expected, not long after the crew released the news, the audience’s analysis of the characters in "In the Name" had already come out.

And he said it in a very convincing manner.

Zhou Mo took a rough look at it and was quite satisfied with the netizens' reactions.

There are a variety of speculations in the comment section about which camps several important characters belong to.

Among them, Sha Ruijin attracted the most attention.

There is no other reason.

This character has the highest status and the greatest power, and is played by Chen Daoming.
