Superstar Couple

Chapter 390 Zhang Le, who was questioned by the media again

Zhang Le can refuse, or he can be perfunctory. Even so, there will be no bad consequences for him to Xinle Film and Television Industry. With his current background, he can ignore these at all. Perhaps, this is why the higher authorities did not approach him directly, but through the mouth of the Yang family.

"You don't have to worry about this. Doesn't Xinle Film and Television shoot less TV series with the main theme every year?" Yang Xiner looked at Zhang Le and said, "There is no need to disrupt your plan because of this. Besides, the National Day gift film, The Huaxia Film Company is mainly in charge. The rest of the film and television companies are mostly just for fun. This is the national condition."

Huaxia Film Company is a state-owned entertainment company, which is different from many private film and television companies. If there is any film company in Huaxia that is the boss, it is undoubtedly Huaxia Film Company. Even if Xinle Films shoots the most films every year, invests in the largest scale, and earns the highest profits, it cannot be compared with Huaxia Film Company.

There is no other reason, Xinle Film and Television is a private enterprise, no matter how strong the background is.

"It's hard to refuse this matter." Zhang Le smiled and said.

It's not easy to refuse, but it's not impossible to refuse. Some people still have to give face. Even if you don't have to give it. Everyone carried the sedan chair.

"The tribute film made by Huaxia Film Company is the main focus of the higher-ups. The film produced by a private film and television company is just to express an attitude. There is no need for Xinle Film and Television to express this attitude. There have been enough attitudes expressed in the past." Yang Xin Er said, "Such a film is undoubtedly thankless. The film is too political, and it is not liked by movie fans at all. It is difficult to recover the cost."

"Hehe, it depends on who shoots it!" Zhang Le said with a smile.

"You don't really plan to be afraid, do you?" Yang Xiner looked at Zhang Le, seeing that he seemed to be serious, and then said with a smile, "Aren't you afraid of losing money for making such a film and breaking your record of making a lot of money from each film?"

"Why didn't I break the record for the poor box office of the main theme movie?" Zhang Le laughed.

"You are still as confident as ever." Yang Xiner smiled.

"If I'm not confident, how could I marry you as my wife." Zhang Le laughed.

It is better to change the plan. The preparation of "Armor and Steel Fist" is almost done, but I have to let it go and start preparing another film. However, the time for this film is still a bit tight, and it needs to be completed before the National Day next year.

Zhou Run's schedule has been adjusted, and the plan has changed, but it has not been affected. Because Zhang Le, the leading actor of the new film, still invited him, although he is not the only leading actor in the film. But no matter from the film itself or from a personal point of view, Zhou Run will not refuse. Moreover, Feng Lei even played the leading role with him, and he has worked with him many times, and he is also very happy.

Zhang Le temporarily changed the filming plan and invested 200 million to shoot a National Day gift film, preparing to flood the entire entertainment news.

There is nothing surprising about shooting a tribute video. After all, China's national strength is increasing day by day, and the birthday of Jiazi in the 60th year can be regarded as a very special day. It is also understandable for many film and television companies to shoot some gift films to curry favor with the authorities.

But Zhang Le doesn't need to rely on this to please the authorities, after all, it's no secret that Yang Xiner has a strong background. And not so thoroughly. Two hundred million Chinese coins is definitely a rare big production. In China, except for Xinle Film and Television, which often has such an arm, it is rare for other film and television companies to appear. And even if there is a blockbuster film with an investment of hundreds of millions, it is mostly a joint venture between several film and television companies to share the risks.

Zhang Le is good at commercial blockbusters, and every film is a box office hit. But now, in the eyes of many people, it is very difficult to get a good box office for the tribute film with the main theme. Even Zhang Le has countless fans.

Movies with the main theme are inherently unpopular with movie fans. Who is willing to spend money to go to the theater to listen to his preaching?

Isn't the film with the main theme just preaching? At least in the minds of many fans.

Moreover, Zhang Le's movies are notoriously over-budget. It is estimated to be 200 million, and it is normal to shoot more than tens of millions.

What's more, even if the cost is 200 million, it is difficult to recover the cost if the box office does not reach 500 million.

The box office of 500 million is really nothing to Zhang Le. But this time it was completely different. There is no market for films with the main theme in China, let alone overseas. Estimates; even the screening cannot be released overseas. And relying on the domestic film market alone, is it possible for a film with the main theme to win 500 million box office?

Before this, the film with the word "main theme" had the highest box office of not just 100 million, and it was still supported by the star lineup.

No media is optimistic about Zhang Le's film. This is also the only biggest question Zhang Le has received in recent years. However, Zhang Le just laughed off the news. How to do it, still doing it like that.

And when even a piece of news came out, the media exclaimed: Does Zhang Le go crazy from time to time? Was he blinded by his success?

Xinle Film and Television invested 150 million yuan to shoot a military drama, but the director is a TV drama director who has never made a movie before. The lead actor is a Wuhan University star who has not been popular for twenty years no matter what.

"Wolf Warrior", a work that didn't have a very high box office in the previous life, but Zhang Le liked it very much. Although it didn't surprise Zhang Le too much, it didn't disappoint him either. There is a sentence in it, but Zhang Le hopes very much, that is: Those who offend China will be punished even if they are far away!

Liu Meng, a director of military TV series under Xinle Film and Television. This guy's background is very similar to that of the male lead in "I Am a Special Forces" in his previous life. A graduate of Yanjing Film Academy, he is also considered a fellow student of Zhang Le. And this guy went to be a soldier for a few years when he was a freshman, a special soldier, and he was a very good one. But later retired due to injury, after finishing his studies, he joined Xinle Film and Television.

And the first TV series he directed was "I am a special soldier" written by Zhang Le!

Recalling the script of "I am a special soldier", Liu Meng's expression was really wonderful.

But when Liu Meng got "Wolf Warrior" written by Zhang Le and discussed the plot, he showed a hesitant expression.

Whether it is a movie or a TV series, few directors raise objections to the films written by Zhang Le. This was not only because of Zhang Le's identity, but also because of what Zhang Le said, they couldn't think of anything better.

"If you have any opinions, just mention them. We are discussing the plot, not arranging tasks." Zhang Le seemed to see that Liu Meng had different opinions, so he said. He is not one to listen to different opinions. Of course, the premise is that your opinion makes me better than my own, otherwise you have to do as I say. This may be a common problem of being a director.

It's not impossible to follow your opinion, but you have to convince me.

"Xinle Film and Television has unique conditions. Isn't this too petty? Besides, this kind of filming doesn't need a budget of 150 million yuan at all." Liu Meng looked at Zhang Le and said a little nervously.

"Do you want to make the scene larger?" Zhang Le was taken aback for a moment, then asked with a smile.

The condition of Xinle Film and Television that Liu Meng said naturally refers to the relationship with the military. It's related, it's not a problem to make some big scenes and show some advanced weapons. Liu Meng filmed several military-themed TV series, so he naturally knew how Zhang Le was related to the military. He believed that as long as military secrets were not involved, everything would be fine.

Liu Meng nodded and looked at Zhang Le expectantly.

"Then make the scene bigger. You can shoot whatever you want, and I will help you with the military. The budget can also be increased appropriately. However, this film is China's first military-type film, and you can't give it to me." I smashed it." Zhang Le nodded and said immediately.

The military is naturally not a problem, not to mention that Mr. Yang is still here, even if he is gone, with the current relationship of the Yang family in the military, it is not a problem to create some big scenes.

Although there were some big scenes in "Wolf Warrior" in the previous life, it was not a big deal. This is also the reason why Zhang Le was a little bit unsatisfied when he watched this movie. Therefore, when Liu Meng put forward this suggestion, Zhang Le agreed without any hesitation.

"Well, throwing that **** into the army for three months, he loses a soldier's air." Zhang Le thought for a while, and then said.

**** is the lead actor of "Wolf Warrior", an unlucky guy who was born at the same time as the lead actor in the previous life.

"It's already thrown in." Liu Meng smiled and said, "That **** brought it up first. That person is very hardworking." (To be continued~^~)
