Chapter 159 "Kung Fu" is not nonsense
The set of "Eden Lake"
"Ka, Jason, your mood is wrong. Remember, you are not afraid of them, you just think these teenagers They are all children, there is no need to get to know them. Okay, let’s take a five-minute break and continue in five minutes...”
What they were filming was the scene where the children were provocative on the beach.
Jason and Fan Jiuyi were basking in the sun on the beach, and then they were harassed by a dog. The dog belonged to those naughty children.
Jason went to those naughty children and asked them to take care of their dogs, but was ridiculed by the naughty children.
Jason had never seen this scene twice, so Zhang Chen asked him to experience it for himself.
Not far away, Sister Jiuyi was lying on the beach in a bikini. With her curvy figure and beautiful face, she was much prettier than the original heroine.
At this time, Sister Jiuyi only has a few pieces of bright orange cloth on her body. If you have watched "Shark Beach", you will find that she is wearing the same bikini from "Shark Beach" .
Of course this was deliberately designed by Zhang Chen, just to ride on the popularity of "Shark Beach".
Seeing Zhang Chen looking over, Sister Jiuyi blew a flirtatious kiss. This woman seemed to have let herself go since she came abroad.
Originally her temperament was charming, but now it has become sexy.
However, Zhang Chen has no interest in this at all. Even if it is a lithium battery, it will be unbearable to be discharged and recharged every night, let alone a living person like him.
Take a break and start shooting again.
This time Jason finally found his form, once and for all.
Speaking of which, it was really fun to film here.
Although there are many young actors in the crew, the acting skills of these young actors are quite good, and they look very similar to each other without being dramatic at all.
This is all thanks to the campus life here in the United States.
American children have many opportunities to perform since elementary school.
Stage plays and so on. When I get older, I will also appear in plays.
Therefore, many people, despite their young age, have rich performance experience. At the same time, they can also know whether they like performing at a very early age.
So when Chinese people watch American TV series, they always feel that every actor in the TV series performs very naturally, which is completely incomparable with the fake ones in China. This is the reason.
In the past two days, Zhang Chen didn't pay much attention to the domestic news. It had nothing to do with him anyway, and he had already paid back all the favors he should have.
His only two sources of information were when he was on the phone with Dong Jianqiang, and the other was Fan Jiuyi.
Every night when he was honing his acting skills, Fan Jiuyi would chat with him about the domestic situation.
""Kung Fu" is released. Can you guess how much the box office was on the first weekend?"
Zhang Chen didn't care and casually said: "50 million?"
Fan Jiuyi knew you would guess. Wrong expression: "No, it's 63 million."
"Oh, that's really a lot~"
Zhang Chen's performance was obviously different from Fan Jiuyi's expectation.
"Aren't you surprised?"
"What's so surprising?"
"63 million. The first weekend box office of "A World Without Thieves" was only 40.1 million. "Kung Fu" Aren't you surprised that it reached 63 million?"
Zhang Chen shrugged, feeling that chakra had recovered, and joked with a smile: "I'm not surprised, but if you want it, I can give it to you. ..."
"Go~"
Fan Jiuyi slapped it away angrily, but still cooperated to lie down and put a pillow behind his waist. Zhang Chen said while moving: "There is no need to be surprised, that is Zhou Xingxing."
Before the betting, Zhou Xingxing's dominance in the comedy field of China Entertainment was unparalleled, and his status was similar to that of Zhao Benshan in the Spring Festival Gala.
Belongs to a unique existence.
If he gets serious, no one is his opponent.
In the words of the movie, I am not referring to anyone in particular, I am saying that everyone here is rubbish~
I really can't beat it. "A World Without Thieves" is already very popular, with 98 million in eight days. Now it has received 130 million in 14 days of release.
But after "Kung Fu" was released, "A World Without Thieves" came to an end, and all the film schedules were squeezed. Even BJ New Film Alliance did not leave a few theaters for him.
The number of screens is still not enough.
The other thing is that the popularity of "Kung Fu" is too high.
Reporter Zhang Xiaobei once called Zhang Chen. The two are now friends. He has Zhang Chen's private number.
Zhang Xiaobei wanted Zhang Chen to estimate the final result of "Kung Fu", just like "A World Without Thieves".
Zhang Chen directly said the number of 170 million.
There is no suspense about this at all. Zhou Xingxing's appeal is too strong, but the key is that he is still slow in making movies. It will take several years to release one.
Of course people are looking forward to it.
Of course, it wasn’t without scolding.
Many people said that "Kung Fu" was a bit disappointing because it was different from Xing Ye's previous movie style.
To put it bluntly, it is not nonsensical enough.
That's true.
The two films directed by Zhou Xingxing alone, "Shaolin Football" and "Kung Fu", are actually not nonsensical.
Or maybe it just has a hint of nonsense.
In the past, Zhou Xingxing's performances were extremely exaggerated, with that kind of nonsensical style. No one but him could play it.
But "Kung Fu" felt a little worse. Although it was funny, it didn't feel unique. It might not have been that bad if it had been replaced by another actor.
Probably like Wang Jing said, when you get older, you can no longer play roles like that.
It's nonsensical and quite vulgar. It's filled with all kinds of vulgar jokes.
He uses sex to make people laugh, and he uses belittling people to make people laugh, otherwise he wouldn't be called a "shit-and-fart" comedy.
But this thing is the memory of a generation, as if it has a fixed path.
Can you imagine Qiu Shuzhen not playing a sexy beauty, but pretending to be a lady?
Everyone will definitely find it strange.
Because in people’s established impression, you take the sexy route.
Zhang Chen feels like this now.
You have to ask him about "Shaolin Soccer" and "Kung Fu". They are quite good, but they are definitely not as good as "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance". That is the Star Master in their minds. The nonsense in it.
……
The shooting is still going on in an orderly manner, and it’s early January in the blink of an eye.
2004 has passed and 2005 has arrived.
This year's New Year's Day is too close to the Spring Festival, so no one is willing to arrange the film at this time.
"Kung Fu" is the only one in the family.
Dong Jianqiang often calls Zhang Chen, usually to inquire about the progress and report the situation.
"How is the filming going for you there?"
"It's not bad. The filming of "Eden Lake" went very smoothly. The current progress is ahead of schedule. I estimate it will be ready in a few days. Finished.”
1,200 shots were shot in 35 days. The task was really difficult, but I didn’t expect that it could be completed ahead of schedule.
How about it go smoothly?
As soon as the filming is finished, Zhang Chen can return to China.
As for editing, what do you want to eat?
This is also the agreement between him and New Line.
You’ve been given your share of the investment, and you’ve decided on the male and female protagonists, but you still want the final editing rights?
New Line is not stupid, they must control the quality of the film, and the final editing right is their ultimate method.
"There is one more thing I think you should know..."
"What?"
"Zhang Weiping is making trouble again?"
< br>
"Oh?" Zhang Chen suddenly became interested. He hadn't heard from this guy for a long time, and Zhang Chen was looking forward to it.
“What did he say?”
“He said that "Kung Fu" will definitely surpass "Shark Beach" at the box office. I want to ask you, what is your annual box office champion after a month? What do you think? "
Zhang Chen Yile, this guy is really unhappy that "Shark Tank" has surpassed "House of Flying Daggers" at the box office, and now he is being ridiculed by "Kung Fu".
He who comes and goes without going back is not a gentleman, and Zhang Chen is not ready to spoil him: "Then ask him for me. In order to promote "House of Flying Daggers", he spent 20 million on a concert. In the end, it would be better for Zhou Xingxing to visit a college. What does he think?”
......
I have been out of shape for the past two days, and nothing feels right no matter how I write. Please give me a monthly ticket for treatment
