Chapter 868 Directors

Yu Yungang hugged his briefcase tightly and left, with the attitude of taking someone else's life and destroying it.

Yin Jun wanted to tell him not to be so careful, but knowing that he was extremely excited and nervous now, it was better to let him go.

Not to mention that "Saw" has already registered its copyright in the United States, but in Hong Kong, even if someone gets the script, do you think he would dare to film it?

Yin Jun is now not a simple genius screenwriter, but a super rich man with a fortune of more than 4 billion.

It's not a wise thing to piss off such a super rich man.

Besides, don’t forget, Yin Jun has thousands of elite security guards who can wipe out the Kowloon Walled City if they are pulled out. If you dare to steal Yin Jun’s script, if Yin Jun is gentler, you will wait for all the cinemas in Hong Kong to stand up. With a group of strong men, let's block all the people who want to go in and watch the movie!

If Yin Jun is not gentle...

Haha, God knows how your family disappeared from this world.

Although Yin Jun may not necessarily do that, who is willing to try it? Who dares to try it?

As for why we only register copyrights in the United States and not in Europe or Japan and South Korea, it is because it is too cumbersome, and the more registrations we have, the greater the risk of leaks.

Yin Jun only needs to grasp the super market of the United States, which is basically enough - before 2014, the box office of the United States was basically half of the global box office, and the remaining half was made up of other countries and regional contribution.

This is the pride of Americans!

This is also an important reason why the United States attaches so much importance to the Chinese market after the box office performance of many Chinese films has surpassed that of the United States - you can see that many Chinese male and female stars are no longer in Hollywood. The scene only lasted a few seconds, but there were a lot of scenes, including the second male lead, the third male lead, the third female lead, and so on.

For example, Jiang Wen and Zong Zidan in "A Star Wars Story? Rogue One", such as Da Tiantian in "Kong? Skull Island" and so on.

Back to the topic.

"Saw" is a very famous movie in later generations. It can be said that even people who don't watch horror movies know its name.

In fact, there are a lot of thrillers in the United States.

Not only "Saw", but also "Texas Chainsaw", "A Nightmare on Elm Street", "The Exorcist", "Scream", and "Ghostbusters" ", and "Ghost Records"...and so on.

But the one that challenges the most thrilling atmosphere is "Saw".

Especially at the end of the first part, when Jigsaw suddenly stood up among the dead, it would scare people's hearts out.

Isn't this kind of movie very similar to the last scene of Yu Yungang's "The Fierce List", when the security guard hides behind the door and ferociously attacks the newborn ghost baby in his wife's arms with an axe? ?

Therefore, it cannot be said that Chinese film directors lack the gene for making thrillers and horror films. If many of them had moved to the United States, they would have become first-rate directors long ago.

Isn't it true that Yuan Kui will be like this in the future? The tree will be moved to death and the person will be moved to life. He went to the United States and became a second-rate director instead?

You know, he is not even a third-rate person in Xiangjiang.

By the way, there is also Yu Rentai.

In the United States, he also filmed the amazing fourth episode of "The Kid", "The Kid's Bride."

Yin Jun has so many classic Hollywood movies, and of course it is impossible for them all to star Chinese movie stars.

Some movies are simply not something they can act in.

A very simple one, if the story of "Chainsaw" is moved to Hong Kong, its charm will obviously disappear a lot, and it will not reach the height of its previous life.

And in "Forrest Gump", you really can't find Chow Leap-fat to replace Tom Hanks' performance, otherwise the resentment of thousands of netizens will definitely travel through time and space to hunt down and kill Yin Jun.

Therefore, as long as Yin Jun is responsible for replacing the director and production staff with his own people, there will be no problem with the actors being cast by Americans.

Do you still remember Yin Jun’s thoughts before?

If there are no European and American actors in his movies, it will definitely be a disaster for Disney and United Artists Movies.

These movies now are used to quell the dissatisfaction of Americans, and they also show them, look, I have not forgotten that this is an American film company.

no way.

Before our own country is not strong enough, and before "Wolf Warrior 2" hits 5.5 billion, the U.S. market must not be negligent in the slightest.

You should be happy no matter when you make American money, right?

Of course, not that fast.

It will take at least two or three months for Yu Yunchang to film "The Fierce List" in Xiangjiang.

Then he went to the United States to prepare his own crew from scratch, select personnel, familiarize himself with various processes, etc., before filming.

This time period will probably take half a year.

Coupled with the scheduling and other factors, I am afraid that there is no way to catch up with the Halloween schedule in October this year.

Halloween is the time for the best ghost and horror movies!

But Yin Jun will not put more pressure on Yu Yungang. As long as he can seriously make "Saw", it will definitely be no less than his previous works.

In particular, Yu Yunchang graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles, and his control over Hollywood works is definitely better than other Hong Kong directors.

…

Speaking of directors in Xiangjiang, another director that Yin Jun values ​​​​more, namely Lin Lingdong, has now brought the carefully produced "Prison. Prison Storm" with Zhou Runfa, Zhang Guorong and a group of staff, as well as Qilin Daily The interview team of China News Agency and Kylin TV went to Cannes, France, to participate in the Cannes Film Festival held in mid-May.

With Yin Jun's current status, it cannot be said that he has traveled across the United States, let alone that he still has any power in France. However, he can still enjoy a little convenience.

After all, Yin Jun is now a Hollywood entertainment tycoon.

As early as March, Yin Jun asked Perez to contact Cannes and list "Prison" as one of their official competition films, and the location and arrangement were pretty good.

Hearing Yin Jun's arrangement, Lin Lingdong felt a little uneasy, fearing that his grades would not be good enough and would embarrass Yin Jun.

It’s not that Xiangjiang’s films have never participated in the three major European film festivals, but in the past ten years, due to the downturn of Shaw Brothers and Jiahe’s obsession with commercial films, few films have been able to participate in European film festivals.

Not long after Yin Juncai established Qilin Film Company, the first film he sent was Lin Lingdong's "Prison." It can be seen that Yin Jun had high expectations for "Prison."

To be honest, Lin Lingdong is still very satisfied with "Prison."

In order to shoot "Prison. Prison Storm", Lin Lingdong spent a full 4 months, which is almost rare in the history of Hong Kong film production.

Zhou Runfa was almost forced to fall out with him several times. Leslie Cheung originally thought of coming over and filming for ten days at a leisurely pace, but it took him more than a month to finish filming his scenes.

It seems to be due to his personality.

Zhang Guorong has the aura of a noble man, but this does not mean that he cannot endure hardship.

When I was on the set with Zhou Runfa, he had an almost bald head, wore a shabby prison uniform, walked back and forth to find the feeling, and even slept in the prison uniform. This is not something ordinary people can do.

Not to mention that Leslie Cheung is still the biggest star in Hong Kong today.

One of the most frustrating scenes in Zhou Runfa's life, which he later often said was "soaking in an extremely dirty sewage pool for several days", was "enjoyed" during the filming of "Prison."

On the first day, he foolishly wanted to go home to see his wife and son, but was driven away by Lian Mei.

In the next few days, he could only sleep on the set and did not even dare to go home.

This is nothing. During the filming of the conflict scene, Zhou Runfa was hit in the right cheek by the villain actor Dasha. He almost went deaf. This scared everyone.

Well, Dasha is also the one everyone is familiar with. He originally starred in "Prison."

His name is Cheng Kuiyu.

Because he was so distinctive, Lin Lingdong specially borrowed him from Li Xiuxian to play the role of "Da Sha" set by Yin Jun.

When Yin Jun went to visit the crew one time, he suddenly saw Dasha smiling at him stupidly, and he was almost shocked.

But the young man also patted Dasha on the shoulder and encouraged him.

It was because of Yin Jun's move that after Cheng Kuiyu accidentally made a big mistake, Zhou Runfa didn't care about Yin Jun's face, but he unjustly stayed in the hospital for a few more days.

Cheng Kuiyu is one of the famous "Four Bad Guys" in the Hong Kong film industry. Most of the roles he plays are hateful.

But in private, he is a very dedicated actor and the head of his village. He is known for his honesty, generosity and uprightness, and is very popular in the film industry.

Playing a bad guy can also lead to a certain level.

Cheng Kuiyu lived up to the appearance conditions God gave him, and he was indeed very successful on this road.

That is to say, Xiangjiang Movies fell out of favor too quickly, otherwise Yin Jun felt that Cheng Kuiyu still had a lot of room for development.

In the production of "Prison", too many elite soldiers and generals were gathered, and a lot of money was spent. Up to now, Chow Yun-fat and Leslie Cheung have received friendly salary, but the total expenditure has exceeded 5 million. This is a huge expense for a feature film without any special effects.

Even though he spent so much money, Lin Lingdong felt that this was the most enjoyable and satisfying movie he had ever made.

He didn't know if he would win an award in Cannes, but it would definitely touch people's hearts.

However, Lin Lingdong naturally hopes to gain fame and fortune this time when he goes to Cannes.

There are only two directors in Hong Kong who have ever won Cannes awards, one is Li Hanxiang and the other is Hu Jinquan.

Even their awards are not major awards, but they are a matter of glory to the Chinese film industry.

If Lin Lingdong can become the third one, he will definitely be proud of his ancestors.

Compared with Lin Lingdong's complicated thoughts, Zhou Runfa and Zhang Guorong thought much more simply. They just wanted to see the Cannes Film Festival and see the world.

The two newcomers have never thought about any awards, participation is enough.

Just like in their previous lives, Zhang Guorong and Zhou Runfa became very good friends through such a cooperation.

It's just that they met in "A Better Tomorrow" in their previous life, so many years earlier in this life.

Yin Jun was quite emotional after hearing this.

He could not forget that on the third night after Leslie Cheung left, Chow Yun-fat, who was promoting his new film "Bulletproof Monk" in Hollywood, took a special flight back. He didn't even go back home. He sat directly in the corner of the mourning hall and just sat like that all night. No words were spoken.

In this life, Zhang Guorong's fate has completely changed, and even Zhou Runfa's fate has also changed a lot.

Now that the two friends' luck has improved, they shouldn't have to say goodbye so painfully! !

…

(Suddenly I saw more than 2,200 monthly tickets! You guys are so surprised! I thought I couldn’t win the monthly ticket award, so I didn’t have the nerve to ask for it, but there were so many! Especially recently because I have to constantly revise the manuscript. Next, my condition is very poor, I only update it twice a day. I am so touched by the gentlemen who love me so much!)
