Cao Kefan probably didn't expect Xu Hui to say so readily that he had read "The Flowers of War" and decisively changed the topic.
Then what kind of work do you think "The Flowers of War" is?
Of course it is a good movie that can show the cruelty of war as much as possible under the existing censorship system, and even have some human brilliance. The movie talks about a sense of responsibility, rather than a simple so-called revenge
...But many people call "The Flowers of War" a bad movie...
This is obviously for Xu Hui to praise "The Flowers of War" and there is no way. This is the thinking of our orientals. You must praise your opponent, otherwise you will be criticized.
Xu Hui pondered for a long time before answering: "The Flowers of Flowers" is a bad movie? Then there are really few good movies in our true sense in China. These are all the clamors of some people who don't understand movies and Chinese movies. But I haven't finished watching it. Its photography, soundtrack and story structure are all very obvious Hollywood style. As a director, I will definitely predict what will happen next in the plot when watching the movie. Basically, after watching it for half an hour, I almost knew the context of the story, and then I left...
I myself may be willing to prefer movies with less heavy themes. The deep tragedy of "The Flowers of Flowers" is really incompatible with the New Year's atmosphere. I even haven't seen the bed scene that has been criticized by the audience...
Xu Hui spread his hands: I really can't understand why I had to add a bed scene when telling such a heavy topic?
...This is what Zhang Weiping means
As a participant in "The Flowers of Flowers", Cao Kefan certainly hopes that his own movie will be recognized more.
...Why do you need to listen to a person who doesn't understand anything at all? The director must be responsible for his work. If it were me and someone wanted to point fingers at my movie, I would definitely not agree!
Xu Hui continued to ask back and pointed to the core
I can understand that as a director, he definitely wants to recover the cost of his work. This is also the director's most basic professional ethics goal, so he allows a person who does not understand movies to interfere with his work, and even allows the other party to hype with something he doesn't like during publicity!
If it were me, I would definitely change my partner. Now there are production companies everywhere, so there is no need to keep one and not let go!
This is obviously supporting the two Zhangs breaking up!
By the way, didn’t the US Golden Globes announce that "The Flowers of War" was nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film yesterday? We all know that your movie has also been nominated for the Golden Globes. So in your opinion, how likely is the Flowers of War" to win the award?
… Almost zero!
Xu Hui decisively sentenced the death penalty and then said: Western traditional values are universal concepts. They will not recognize the life of prostitutes for the life of students. If the age of female students is modified and changed to a child of 7 or 8 years old, the impact this movie will bring to foreigners will be stronger. Although the Golden Globe Awards have been a bit nonsense in recent years, there is still a bottom line. After all, it is the weather vane of the Oscars, so this award is unlikely to be awarded to "The Flowers of War"!
Cao Kefan was stunned for a moment and looked at several directors on the scene.
Unlike Cao Kefan's slightly awkward expression, the staff at the scene were in high spirits. This is the fucking point of viewing Ah!
No wonder the industry often says, 'As long as Xu Hui nods and agrees, the show will be saved!'
Talk about something else...
Xu Hui took the initiative to propose that Cao Kefan changed the topic again
How much do you think the box office of "New Dragon Gate" can be?
Judging from the box office trend, this should not be weaker than "The Lion King's Battle", and the 3D ticket price is half more expensive than that of ordinary movies, so set a small goal, 1.5 billion, I think it should be achieved!
……
Cao Kefan doesn't want to talk
Do you think the billion goal of "The Flowers of War" is possible?
This sentence was asked under the pressure of the live director...
Well, it’s a bit difficult. It’s probably impossible to simply expect the box office to recover the cost! In fact, the results of "The Flowers of Flowers" in North America have already come out, and the highest single-player studio is only 10,000 US dollars, and the first day it didn’t even get $50,000...
...What about domestic achievements?
I can't say this. Although I know the market very well, this is a work that reflects the grief of our nation. It is difficult to define it with ordinary commercial films...
If you simply expect the box office to recover costs, an investment of 600 million yuan will at least require...
Cao Kefan didn't finish his words, but Xu Hui had already interrupted: There is no 600 million! From the perspective of film practitioners, the investment in "The Flowers of War" is definitely not 600 million. Even if he was looking for the best Hollywood team, it would not be as expensive as 600 million yuan. Moreover, the local shooting costs are free, including the venue and the construction of buildings are all used for free. Zhang Yimou's filming speed is very fast, and the shooting ends in three months, so its investment is at most less than 300 million yuan...
This is a slap in the face naked.
He kept saying, "The Flowers of Flowers" is the highest investment in domestic films, with a total investment of 100 million US dollars, and it's not an exaggeration to get a billion'...
……
At midnight, Xu Hui stood at the entrance of the radio and television door, took out a pack of cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a deep breath.
The variety shows in the mainland are still the same, with a lot of sensitive points. Xu Hui originally wanted to tell the story of the Japanese army in "The Flowers of Flowers", but was stopped by Cao Kefan's eyes...
There is no way, after all, it is a TV program, which is equivalent to being played for all viewers. There are still necessary restrictions━━ Several major video websites have the online broadcast rights of "Kefan Listening"
It would be great when can I put a 19-banned interview program, similar to "No Defense Tonight"...
At this moment, the car that picked him up came. Xu Hui opened the car door and then saw Chen Sangsang in surprise.
Uh, his agent...
Since the company went public, Chen Sangsang has added another identity. The general manager of Huiwen Brokerage naturally shifted its focus. Basically, she just asked about Xu Hui some things unless there were some particularly important things.
Why are you here? Is something wrong?
...Three news, first, "New Dragon Gate" won a box office of 84 million today, while "The Flowers of War" was 47 million;
Then what?
Second, you two have created the highest first weekend box office result in mainland film history, close to 500 million yuan!
…There are so many?
Nearly 500 million in the first weekend?
What does it mean? The box office of a general movie on the first weekend will account for one-third to one-half of the total box office. If these two movies are the same, the total box office of "New Dragon Gate" or "The Flowers of Flowers" will definitely exceed 1 billion!
"New Dragon Inn" was 3.1 billion in the first weekend, "The Flowers of War" was 1.4 billion, and other movies contributed nearly 20 million in box office... You can follow the relevant reports tomorrow!
Well, there is another news?
You may not like this very much...
