Chapter 340 On the twenty-sixth of that year, God blocked and killed God!
After the movie ended, the main creator came on stage. Today, all the lights in the audience focused on the people on the stage.
After all, this is Guan Ling's home court. Although Nolan is standing next to Guan Ling, everyone seems to have forgotten him.
You Benchang stood on Guan Ling's side, and Leonardo stood on Nolan's side.
But no one thinks that You Benchang is not worthy!
Hot Cannes Best Actor in May!
Let You Benchang, the supporting role in the movie, stand proudly in the center!
Liu Yifei was also standing on the other side of You Benchang, and she gave in on her own initiative. Although she was the nominal heroine, You Benchang had a lot of roles, and she was older, so Liu Yifei didn't care too much.
But she could clearly see that the eyes of those in the audience were filled with envy and dullness, and they were looking up.
Reporters and film critics blasted Guan Ling,
"Director Guan, are the historical stories about dreams at the premiere the reason why you came up with the idea for this movie?"
"Yes."
Guan Ling looked at the crowd and said,
"In fact, you can look up the allusion of Banana Deer Dream. The multiple dreams in it are very interesting.
This word was used by many poets in ancient times. Quote means to regard reality as a dream, which is an extension of the idiom "covering bananas and looking for deer". Many people think that this is a comparison of trance and confusion.
But I think this may be a comparison with Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly. A more fantastic dream."
"Director Guan, did you write this script yourself? Or did Director Nolan also provide key suggestions for this movie?"< br>
“For this movie, Director Nolan gave me a lot of support in terms of storyboarding, production, and actual shooting.”
“Director Guan, what do you think? Do you have any expectations for the box office of this movie? Don’t say the higher the better, it’s better to give you a specific number.”
Guan Ling didn’t answer. He looked at the reporter who asked this question. , pick up the phone.
The scene fell into silence.
Even Director Tong stopped communicating with Principal Gu and Dean Zhang, and pricked up his ears, ready to hear Guan Ling say a specific number.
"I'm not a mathematician, numbers.
I'm really not very good at it."
Guan Ling's voice did not stop, he picked up the microphone , said word by word, "Just in June this year, our country's GDP just surpassed that of Japan... Japan, which is doing well, and the size of a large country supports us to continue to move towards the United States.
In terms of movie box office, our goals should be the same.
At least from my perspective, I have one and only one goal, which is to top the box office in China and achieve one billion US dollars worldwide. >
I wonder if this answer satisfies you?”
As soon as this statement came out, the whole audience was in an uproar!
It is difficult for ordinary directors to fall into this trap, because once they fail to achieve it, or misunderstand the quality of the film itself, it is easy to be affected by public opinion.
And Guan Ling really told everyone this goal word for word.
Although the word "Avatar" does not appear in the entire sentence, everyone knows that his goal is only that, and it can only be that!
As soon as he said this, Director Tong raised his head in relief, stroking his hands and smiling.
Principal Gu was stunned for a moment.
“Although Director Guan is very powerful, some young people will suffer if they speak too early.”
“This is not entirely true. If his goal is not "Avatar", how can he be worthy of him? What about your contribution to Chinese films?”
Director Zhang Huduzi is the best director at Nortel, and he must have a nice word for it.
In a remote corner, Zhu Yawen still had a silly smile on his face.
"Director Guan is making bold statements, why are you laughing?"
Zhang Songwen glanced at Zhu Yawen, a little strange.
"I laughed at "Avatar". If the box office record it set was broken within half a year, I would really be ashamed of the fact that the entire network was crushing the promotion of this movie."
"What if it doesn't happen?" "
"No?"
Zhu Yawen turned his head and looked at Zhang Songwen with a look of fool.
“Brother, Director Guan said he was going to Cannes to say hello. After saying hello, he also won the Palme d’Or.
He said he was going to take Mr. You Benchang to visit the three major universities. I came back with a movie star.
At the beginning of the year, it was said that "Source Code" would be a model for Chinese science fiction, with a box office of 800 million.
"Avatar". Yes, but do you think this is an impossible task for Director Guan?
He said he can, so I believe he can do it."
"Box office. This thing is determined by your wallet," Zhang Songwen said, "There is a limit after all."
"Guan Dao has no limits."
Zhu Yawen replied directly without a second of hesitation.
Zhang Songwen was stunned for a moment, but he didn't say a word.
……
Restless!
Everyone knows some things well.
But saying it directly in front of so many media can only show that Director Guan has absolute confidence.
If "Avatar" was released at the beginning of the year, it was like a god descending over the heads of Chinese movies, shrouding everyone.
Na Dao Guan’s words were tantamount to a solemn declaration to everyone.
I want...
God blocks and kills God!
Feng Xiaogang swallowed, walked to Fan Bingbing's side, and whispered.
“I really have to thank you, Bingbing, for helping me bring that sentence to Director Guan. Otherwise, I can already think of what might have happened in “Tangshan Earthquake.”
“ After all, we have collaborated before, so you don’t have to thank me for this little thing.” Fan Bingbing responded with a smile, “But what are Director Feng’s plans for the future? Is this the last film he will make with Huayi?”
"Established?" It's a personal studio, it can be considered independent."
Feng Xiaogang thought about it and said, "If I give Huayi a small share of my future films, will I offend Director Guan? Ask? "
Although he and Huayi have parted ways, they are not inseparable.
Feng Xiaogang was wondering whether to cut off the seats directly.
"That shouldn't be necessary. Didn't the Wang brothers also come over to attend the premiere?"
Fan Bingbing looked at the Wang brothers who had been making waves before. Now they were in a corner. , standing like a miner.
Although Huayi is still as skinny as a camel, since the difficulty of going public, the output of the two brothers has also become less. Now the spotlight is no longer shining for them.
Feng Xiaogang nodded and said nothing more.
"Director Feng, if you have a role later, don't forget to find me."
Fan Bingbing suddenly remembered something.
“You’re going to Hollywood, and you still want my role?”
“I’m different from Liu Yifei. It’s hard enough to stay in Hollywood. It would be nice if I could go there a few more times. , China’s scenes will continue to be filmed.”
“If we have a role, we must contact you!”
……
A very high-standard reception was prepared on site. .
At this moment, the people staying at the reception were all big guys without exception.
Those film critics, reporters, etc., Lingyun Media paid the carriage fare and left.
Director Tong, Principal Gu and Dean Zhang also left.
They have given Guan Ling a lot of face by coming here this time, but they will not stay at the cocktail party.
Director Tong is inconvenient because he has lost his position.
The same is true for Principal Gu and Dean Zhang. Of course, there is another point. Apart from Guan Ling, they are not familiar with anyone else.
Guan Ling gave away three people.
After the driver came over, he pulled the three people into the car together.
Before closing the car door, Director Tong poked his head out.
"Director Guan, I have to thank you."
"How should I say it?"
"The movie "Avatar" also had a great impact on the film industry, and your movie not only uses 3D, but in some aspects, it is even more immersive. Although they are all Hollywood movies,伱, the impact on the film bureau and Chinese movies is immeasurable. The most important thing is that this movie actually combines the story of Chinese Dreamland, and you also introduced two lines in it. < br>
So I am thanking you for Huaxia Film.”
“Director Tong said something serious”
“I am looking forward to seeing you. Box office results, although I have to leave today, I will definitely stay drunk with you at the celebration party."
"Then I have to ask my sister-in-law to prepare hangover medicine."
"You want to get close to me, right? At my age, you should call me uncle."
"Okay, Uncle Tong."
After seeing off the three people, Guan Ling returned Over the reception.
……
Yu Dong quickly came over and pulled Guan Ling enthusiastically.
"Director Guan, Chief Tong sent him off?"
"Yes."
"You still have a lot of face. Chief Tong has only attended the premiere for two people in his life. At the screening, one is director Zhang Yimou and the other is you."
Guan Ling didn't say anything, and he really couldn't answer the question.
Seeing the sky almost killed me.
Yu Dong quickly got straight to the point,
“I have a project here, which has not been approved yet. It is currently in the cooperation negotiation stage. Do you have any ideas to get involved?”
“ What? ”
“Take the Tiger Mountain by Wisdom”
Yu Dongdao said, "I was thinking about how to make some tribute movies before, and then I thought of this movie from the last century. I saw it by chance when I was on a business trip to Shanghai, because it is now being produced by Shangmei. I want to remake the animated version.”
“That’s good,” Guan Ling thought for a while, the pace of the world has gradually accelerated due to Guan Ling’s influence.
Boehner will probably eventually go his own way.
“Of course I’m interested.”
“After the script is polished out, will Director Guan have your hands on it?”
“I wouldn’t dare to do that. "Yes," Guan Ling didn't give much face, "After watching it this time, can I help you next time? Moreover, as a gift drama, and it is a story that has been popular in China for more than half a century, there is a high probability that there will be no problems. Think about "The Founding of the People's Republic of China."
"Yes." Yu Dong nodded.
"Then let's settle it now. When the time comes, I'll call you."
"Okay."
"By the way, I heard you Are you doing animation and amusement parks at Huaqiang Fantawild?" Yu Dong suddenly thought of something, "Just this year, we won the distribution rights for the Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf movies. I heard about it by chance at this time."
"That's the case."
"This is about animation..."
Before Yu Dong finished asking, Guan Ling nodded, "That's the case. An idea, but I’m too busy now.”
“I understand.”
Yu Dong nodded excitedly, he discovered Guan Ling’s big secret.
......
After talking to Yu Dong, Mr. Yang, Guangxian Wang Changtian, will have a few drinks with Guan Ling even if he comes alive.
"Director Guan, we can't favor one over the other."
Mr. Yang raised his glass,
"Logically speaking, it has been so many years since Hong Kong returned to China. Compared with Taiwan, it must be closer to the mainland, especially Guan Dao,
At the Oscars, Director Kwan spoke up and gained face for Hong Kong.
All the directors in Hong Kong admire you.
But how come you collaborated with Hou Hsiao-hsien on a whole movie and didn’t even mention writing one for a Hong Kong movie? "
Mr. Yang was chattering, but there was no look of blame on his face. He was just looking forward to it.
"Why, the company has so many projects and there is still a movie left? "
"Poor. "Mr. Yang said, "Director Guan's share is simply out of reach now. Recently, except for the projects "The Founding of the Party" and "1942" that have been approved, I am also discussing with Hollywood to remake a Hollywood love movie, and there are no other good projects.
The movie to be released is currently in the theater. It is an animated sequel. "Yangtze River No. 7 Loves the Earth", after director Guan's movie is released tomorrow, it will be a corpse.
So Hong Kong movies also need help from directors.
Just letting Hong Kong directors come to the mainland is not a good thing for Hong Kong films. "
"Mr. Yang, please stop putting more burdens on me. Can you still put pressure on my shoulders for the future of Hong Kong films? ”
Guan Ling couldn't laugh or cry.
“One film is enough, give it a try first.”
Mr. Yang did not feel that his request was unreasonable at all. Anyway, he said this from the perspective of Hong Kong films, and the company It doesn't matter, he can talk boldly.
When there is a script, the company will definitely have a hand.
And to make a movie in Hong Kong, it is difficult to go around the company.
This move, Mr. Yang played very well.
The status of Hong Kong films has gradually declined in recent years.
Guan Ling played a big role in this.
The appeal of traditional Hong Kong films is gradually weakening.
Many Hong Kong filmmakers know this very well, but they are powerless.
"I'll think about it, okay."
Guan Ling thought about it and didn't refuse.
Wang Changtian originally wanted to go to the theater, but he didn't expect that Mr. Yang actually made the deal, which made him extremely anxious.
Director Guan’s script is really just a piece of cabbage, right?
……
In the bathroom.
Yang Mi hugged Guan Ling's neck and looked directly at him.
"Senior Brother, the little sister I know named Tang Yan is very interested in you. Do you want to chat?"
Yang Mi took advantage of the opportunity and came to Guan Ling. They had been staring at each other just now. He looked around and had no chance to get to Guan Ling.
At this time, I saw Guan Ling finally leaving the crowd and reaching the bathroom.
She immediately followed him step by step.
As a result, once I left, I didn’t come back for a long time.
"You take care of yourself, why do you still care about other people's affairs?"
Guan Ling looked at Yang Mi and thought, this woman is so stupid, why is she still going to her side? Send a woman?
Tang Yan, I had little contact with her before.
In Guan Ling’s memory, she had a pair of long straight legs.
And because of the changes in the roles of Mu Tingting and Liu Sisi in Sword of Swords 3, Tang Yan lost the chance to become an instant hit.
Listening to Guan Ling's words, Yang Mi felt sweet in her heart.
“But I have already agreed with her.” Yang Mi said, “I have been praising you in front of her before. She asked me for your contact information, and I couldn’t refuse.”
"Then add it."
Guan Ling felt that he had caused Tang Yan to lose the chance to become famous.
Then why not give her a shot back?
......
At this moment, the news information from the outside world,
has followed the movie reviews from the premiere,
and Guan Ling’s bold words Ambition,
swept,
no, massacred the film industry, the entertainment industry, and even the pages of various online platforms.
With the release of "Inception",
the film industry was completely shaken!
