Chapter 256 0255: On the Verge of Breaking Out (2) [Subscribe]
Jiang Ge quickly browsed the entire article and frowned involuntarily.
When the reporter asked if there were any Chinese filmmakers who wanted to cooperate, Saburo Ono replied no: "He heard from friends that making movies in China is very expensive, and an actor's salary can be tens of millions or even 100 million yuan." , he probably couldn’t even make one-tenth of the movie with his little money there.”
The implication is that all Chinese filmmakers are "foolish and rich".
It is undeniable that there are some examples of this, where it is possible to let a popular traffic star star and offer an unreasonable sky-high salary.
But you can't knock down a whole boat of people with one stroke, at least Django is not that kind of person.
When a reporter asked if he knew Django, the most powerful director of China's new generation, Saburo Ono replied: "Hollywood movies are often shown in Japan, but most Chinese movies are not introduced to Japan. At present, there is no news about who is the most powerful director in China."
The reporter added: "Django's movie "Initial D", which was filmed in Yueben last year, won the box office championship in the same period when it was released in Yueben."
Saburo Ono replied: "I've heard about it, but I haven't seen it since I was focused on filming "Tokyo Mysterious 4"."
That's normal, just like Django doesn't know about him and his movies.
In fact, the previous interviews were very good.
What made Jiang Ge frown and even feel uncomfortable was the last paragraph.
When a reporter asked who is the biggest competitor during the Spring Festival, Saburo Ono replied: "The biggest competitor in the Spring Festival is probably "Dawn of the Dead". Horror movies in China tend to be bloody and violent movies. It is full of bloody scenes, but the copper surface is direct and exciting, which can make people nervous and then relax. The main characteristics of their horror films this month are whether they reflect resentment, depicting the resentment and curse of human-like ghosts and the powerlessness of it. Despair, the story will be more complete, and two different routes will produce two of the best horror film types today. "
The reporter asked again: "Then, what do I have to say about their Chinese horror films?"
Saburo Ono replied: "He hasn't seen many horror movies from China. I don't know why they are full of the screams of female characters, and they always revolve around things like cheating, fighting for family property, and revenge. They are not the lowest level of horror. Hua Isn’t there a saying in the country that ‘when three people are together, there will always be someone to learn from’? Learn more from Yueben and M Country, and hope to make better horror films in the future.”
Django was angry when he heard this, but he couldn't generalize.
There may be shoddy horror films, but there are also good horror films, which are more in-depth and feature an emphasis on cause and effect. They educate people not to do bad things, otherwise they will lead to bad consequences. They say that "human nature is unpredictable".
Very well, where did the resentment come from in our monthly horror film? Does it all revolve around things like cheating, fighting over property, and revenge?
Django almost broke through. However, domestic horror films are on the decline, but it is not my turn as a foreign director to give instructions.
"Are you angry?" Zhou Lingwei asked.
"A little bit." Django didn't hide it.
"That Saburo Ono has two brothers, one who makes action movies and the other who makes historical movies. They highly admire the culture of Country M and Japan. They used to often pull down his father." Zhou Lingwei said.
Very much like that? Django narrowed his eyes.
Ono Ichiro?
Jiro Ono?
Saburo Ono?
Just wait, we!
The night in Pengcheng is very bright, and in the countdown ringing in the ears, it crosses 2023 and enters 2024.
"Django, happy new year."
"Happy New Year."
——————
The New Year's Day holiday is short, and people are engaged in work for the new year.
Zhou Lingwei's variety show production company was officially established, called "Weige Culture", and it is located in the same building as Huafeng Media.
"Legend of Sword and Fairy" is still being filmed intensively. Gu Yao, Qin Shiyue, and Guan Yansi took time out to attend the CCTV Spring Festival Gala rehearsal in Yanjing.
And, Saburo Ono’s interview article is slowly spreading on the Internet.
Zhu Ping, "Painted Skin".
Saburo Ono, "Tokyo Bizarre 3".
Tom Brady, "Dawn of the Dead 3."
It is said that three women have a drama, and now three men also have a drama.
What's more, there are three men on the surface, but there are actually five men, very Django, and Park Puchong, the director of the less-attracted Korean horror film "Pen Sin Ghost Story 2".
"There are four horror films being screened during the Spring Festival. Isn't it inappropriate?"
"A little bit, but it's not a big problem."
"The PK of the same type of electric car that everyone loves to see."
“I don’t know which movie is better.”
"Except for "Painted Skin", all the others were screened abroad and achieved good box office. Among them, "Osaka Mystery 2" had the highest box office, with a box office of 700 million."
"Support domestic production! Saburo Ono is just like Erlang Dalang, too arrogant."
…
Netizens are having heated discussions.
The outside world is also paying close attention to the fact that the three Ono brothers are very arrogant, and they are not the kind who just talk about it, but they are real.
The movies they made not only achieved good reviews and box office success this month, but also received good responses in foreign markets.
Some professionals analyzed various aspects of several movies and listed the advantages and disadvantages.
"Tokyo Mystery 4" is the fourth installment in the Tokyo Mystery series.
Similar to "The Grudge" on Earth, it tells the story of an independent family, but "The Grudge" tells the story of multiple families in the city. The main purpose is to magnify the resentment and curse of the spirit. Once people come into contact with it, they will be deeply trapped, but they are powerless to resist, and eventually they have to become victims of resentment.
The first three films were very successful, and Ono Saburo was dubbed the "Godfather of Japanese Horror Films" by movie fans.
"He may be arrogant, but he has the capital to be arrogant."
"Apart from the director's character, the movie is a good movie worth watching."
...
"Dawn of the Dead 3" is a relatively innovative new zombie movie series on Blue Star.
It's a bit like "Army of the Living Dead". The zombies are intelligent, act quickly, and are very organized.
Because of the novel setting, the first two films also achieved good results.
"Hollywood is still the big brother in special effects."
"It's true that they can't compare. They are willing to spend money on special effects."
...
As for "Painted Skin", Zhu Ping has no halo, and the key figure is Django.
It's his third movie script. The first "Initial D" box office was 1.97 billion, and the second "Detective Chinatown" box office was 3.11 billion, with excellent box office history.
And he also has outstanding achievements and good reputation in the music and television circles. There is a saying on the Internet that "trust Django, there are fine works".
"The investment in "Painted Skin" is not low, the special effects are guaranteed, and it brings together a group of popular artists from China to participate."
"Let's look at the story. Django's script is very good."
...
After analyzing it over and over again, we have to wait until we see the feature film to know how much weight it has.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the box office war was about to start.
