Chapter 779 Bow to Me!

In the Mei Lanfang Grand Theatre, a luxurious auditorium that can accommodate thousands of people, the screening of "Taiping Wheel" has officially started.

The dragon logo flashed across the big screen, and the calm sea level appeared in the audience's field of vision.

The movie is called "Taiping Ship", and it tells the story of a ship. It starts with the sea level, and goes straight to the point.

The audience cheered up one after another, waiting for the appearance of the big ship, to see how this ship compares with the one in 1997.

However, within a few seconds, they were disappointed.

The camera then shifted to the land, where the corpses of female soldiers were strewn all over the place, with heavy casualties.

The painting style changed suddenly and turned into a war movie, which stunned the audience.

However, the background of the movie is that era, and there is nothing surprising about it. Some viewers are still looking forward to the next big war scene.

Then there was a war scene. The female general played by Wang Xiaoming led the army to fight the Japanese people. Their tanks and the opponent's cannons also engaged in a "fierce" artillery battle.

"I'll go, Sherman and Pershing are here, can Wu Yusen be a little more rigorous."

"Strictness has a useless purpose. This tank is just a decoration. After firing two random shots, I have never seen the front machine gun and coaxial machine gun used. What a fart!"

"If I had known it was a war movie, I wouldn't have watched it. I can't watch domestic war movies. This Mantou and Pan Datou are so embarrassing and cancerous."

"Wu Yusen used to be ashamed to talk about Feng's trousers. Back then, Pershing was used for the filming of "Assembly". Even if Feng's trousers couldn't be borrowed, they still used M3 to change Pershing, which is much more serious."

"Taiping Wheel" was originally promoted as the oriental "Titanic", an otaku love blockbuster, and most of the audience at the scene came for this. Who would have imagined that it would become a war movie at first.

But war is war, and many male compatriots who are attracted by their girlfriends are quite interested.

However, the few minutes of the war scene made some military fans couldn't help complaining in a low voice.

Wu Yusen, who was in the front row, heard the comments from the audience not far behind, and his face full of smiles at the far door suddenly felt a little upset.

Even comparing Feng Xiaogang with himself, Wu Yusen didn't get angry.

At that time, not only the mainstream filmmakers in the mainland were not interested in Feng Xiaogang, but many directors in Xiangjiang and Formosa also did not like him.

The main reason is that his films can make money. These Xiangjiang directors hope that all the mainland directors will rush to the street, and the mainland film companies will all beg them.

And because of what happened when Ruan Jintian went to the Dongjing Film Festival in 11, Baodao not only gave him a golden horse actor, but also wanted to prevent Xu Fan, who was the most vocal at the time, from stealing Ruan Jintian's limelight. After giving the golden horse to Lu Liping.

After all, Xu Fan is Feng Xiaogang's wife, and her fame is not comparable to that of Ruan Jintian, and the influence of "Assembly" is even more powerful than that of "Monga".

Once given to Xu Fan, she will be the last person to pay attention to this Golden Horse Awards. As for Ruan Jintian, the best actor, no one cares about her.

Lu Liping's acting is good, and she is low-key and has no reputation, so she won't steal Ruan Jintian's limelight.

The key point is that her husband, Sun Xuanying, often diss Feng Xiaogang, so it would be perfect to award her the Best Actress.

When the film festival chairman at the time was interviewed, he also said that Xu Fan's performance was too violent and not good enough.

Of course Feng Xiaogang lost his temper, and immediately turned to the golden horse, claiming that if he doesn't understand, don't pretend to be an expert!
By the way, he scolded many people openly and secretly, including Wu Yusen who has been praising Baodao and Xiangjiang actors.

Wu Yusen became angry when he thought of Feng Xiaogang's blatant and covert disclosure of his intentions, and now it is not so easy to praise Baodao and Xiangjiang actors like before.

Ten years ago, Baodao and Xiangjiang usually cooperated between the two film companies. With the signing contract between the two parties, they approached the mainland film company to discuss funding to join. Baodao and Xiangjiang had the right to cast casting. Baodao and Xiangjiang, and this method happened to use other people's money to train their own actors, which was economical and cost-effective, and it was quickly promoted.

This is the method first advocated by Wu Yusen, and then promoted to some directors and companies in Baodao and Xiangjiang.

However, there are always some tough people. Except for Feng Xiaogang and Tang An, directors who can sell box office but are unwilling to use Taiwan actors, some film and television company bosses are obstacles.

The director of the movie "Like a Dream" had already selected an actress from Taiwan as the heroine when the filming started, but the investor Yu Dong told her at the time: You must use our actors, otherwise you will take your luggage and leave immediately. Will invest a penny in you.

In the end, the director could only choose Yuan Quan under Bernard as the heroine.

However, Yu Dong was not tough enough compared to Tang An. Many of the films invested by Berna also used actresses from Xiangjiang and Baodao.

Thinking of Tang An, Wu Yusen's eyes flashed a trace of hatred. Not only was "Red Cliff" defeated by Tang An head-on, but also their plan to borrow funds from the mainland to promote Treasure Island and Hong Kong actors was also blocked because of Tang An. bankruptcy.

Originally, mainland film companies invested, and Baodao and Xiangjiang actors took the main roles. This model has gradually become fixed, but Tang An's blockbuster films such as "Super Body", "The Wind", and "You See Me Now" are all mainland actors. , Let Zou Xun, Li Binbin, Zhang Hanyu, Wang Xiaoming, Deng Chao and other mainland Mesozoic actors quickly rise on the big screen.

It's fine if it's just Tang An's own movie. After all, the success of the movie is mainly due to Tang An's personal ability, and other companies will not wantonly use mainland actors because of this.

But Tang An invested in another "Painted Skin", the same starring actors are from the mainland, and finally let Chen Kun, Zhao Wei, and Zou Xun soar into the sky.

Director Wu Ershan is a newcomer, and the credits of those actors cannot be erased. Since then, this group of Mesozoic actors began to occupy the big screen, driving out Xiangjiang actors of the same age group, and letting mainland actors occupy the mainland The mainstream of the film market.

The source of this situation is Tang An, Wu Yusen thought bitterly.

If there is no Tang An, Zou Xun, Li Binbin, Zhao Wei, Chen Kun, Wang Xiaoming, Liu Ye, Deng Chao and others are still supporting the stars of Xiangjiang and Baodao, and the young actors of the two places can step on their shoulders. Go up step by step, maybe one or two superstars will be promoted, how can they be so down and out like they are now!
At this time, Wu Yusen glanced at Wang Xiaoming who was not far away from the corner of his eye, and now he couldn't make all his movies by himself.

Originally, Wu Yusen, the protagonist of Wang Xiaoming, found Zhang Zhen to act, but because of the long preparation and production cycle, Zhang Zhen took on the banned film "Wu Wen Xi Dong", as well as "Embroidered Spring Knife", "Assassin". "Nie Yinniang" and "The Taoist Descending the Mountain" really have no schedule.

Hua Yi then took the opportunity to stuff Wang Xiaoming in, because it was not a few years ago now, and Wang Zhongjun also had the confidence to be tough.

Using Zhang Ziyi requires her fame, but Wang Xiaoming's reputation has been ruined because of his repeated attacks on the big screen. Plus he is from the mainland, including Zhang Ziyi, there are only two leading actors from the mainland.

The situation was not as good as before, and Wu Yusen had to compromise.

In the final analysis, it is the failure of "Red Cliff", and the few films produced by the producer in the past few years have all hit the street, and I have no confidence.

but!

Wu Yusen's thoughts returned to the big screen. As long as "Taiping Wheel" is successful this time, he will have the absolute right to cast the next movie.

At that time, no matter how tough Wang Zhongjun is, he will have to bow to him in the face of interests!
