Chapter 249 Do you want to see brothers kill each other(2/3)

"Don't you think that if you make one movie a year, the gains outweigh the losses for you?" Wang Mei said, "If you are a producer, supervising producer or something, you can earn more."

"I'm not short of money." Zhang Yu said calmly.

Write a script, then find a suitable director, then invest

In this way, we can naturally "move" more works here.

But what is the meaning of that?

Zhang Yuhui brought out the classics in his mind one after another, but it was never enough.

Besides, it's not impossible for him to take pictures himself.

It’s just that Studio Thirteen’s background is too poor and it’s short of manpower.

How big is the pot and how much rice is put in it?

"Okay, you have money."

Wang Mei shook her head and said.

Zhang Yu is not only rich, but also very rich.

She didn't know that Zhang Yu had a building in Xiangjiang. If she knew about it, she would be even more speechless.

Wang Mei said that Zhang Yu is rich, not just from how much he earns from making movies and music albums.

In her opinion, Zhang Yu's wealth is not reflected in film and television, but in another industry: Kuaiyin short video.

As the second largest shareholder, Zhang Yu is now worth a lot.

"Director Zhang has already gone to Cannes with "Farewell My Concubine". I wonder if any good news will come back." Wang Mei said, "You are the screenwriter of this film after all, and you are also called the producer, why don't you go?

?I don’t know how many celebrities in China want to go to the red carpet."

"I don't have time." Zhang Yu said, "As for whether I will win the prize, we will know in a few days."

Zhang Yu was still unsure whether he would win the prize.

The chances of winning are still very high.

As for what kind of prizes he can win, that's not known.

"If I won the Best Screenplay Award and you weren't there"

"It's not like someone else can't go up and get it for me." Zhang Yu said with a smile.

Best Screenplay Award?

It shouldn't be possible.

The original version didn't win this award.

It's naturally best to take it.

Zhang Hang went to Cannes with his new work, which did not arouse much response in the country.

However, when the news that "Farewell My Concubine" entered the main competition at the Cannes Film Festival spread back to China, it was completely different.

This movie instantly caught everyone's attention.

At this time, many people remembered.

When Zhang Hang had a falling out with Xu Ming and jumped to Wansheng Film and Television, it was said that it was because of a script written by Zhang Shisan.

Then, this script must be "Farewell My Concubine".

From this point of view, it is no wonder that Zhang Hang was moved at that time.

Zhang Hang and Xu Ming had a falling out, which seemed to be a little less commercial.

If you get something at Cannes

Not long after, a story caused a sensation in the country.

"Farewell My Concubine" won the Palme d'Or at Cannes!

This film also became the first Chinese-language film to win this award.

Previous Chinese-language films have only won one Cannes Grand Jury Prize.

Domestic media have reported on it.

Even the official media reported it, and the matter even appeared on the News Network.

This can be regarded as bringing glory to the country.

Zhang Hang also used this film to avenge his past shame and resolve all the negative impacts of "Strange Case".

The film became a hit, and Zhang Yu, the screenwriter of the film, naturally attracted the attention of countless media.

"Director Zhang, your new film will compete for the Golden Dragon Award next year, and will definitely encounter Zhang Hang's "Farewell My Concubine". Are you confident about this?"

"I'm afraid my new film won't be able to catch up with the Golden Dragon Award next year." Zhang Yu said, "I don't even know when it will start filming? In addition, there seems to be no news about director Feng's films, and I guess it won't be able to catch up."

"Are you really unable to catch up, or do you just don't want to catch up?" the reporter asked, "Are you not wanting to catch up with "Farewell My Concubine", or are you waiting for director Feng's film?"

"I really can't catch up." Zhang Yu said, "Even if I can catch up, I'll probably miss it!"

"For the film Farewell My Concubine, I was not only the screenwriter, but also the producer, and even participated in the post-production soundtrack." Zhang Yu said, "Do you want to see 'Brothers Killing Each Other'?"

Brothers killing each other?

Of course we want to see it.

That's interesting.

Of course, the reporters didn't say this.

"Does Director Zhang think your new film will be as good as Farewell My Concubine?" a reporter asked.

“Who would think that their film is worse than someone else’s?”

Zhang Yu replied calmly, without directly answering, but leaving the reporter speechless.

"What if Director Feng's film catches up with next year's Golden Dragon Award?" a media reporter asked.

"Then I will try my best to catch up while ensuring the quality of the film." Zhang Yu said, "If I can't catch up, there is nothing I can do. I will look for opportunities in the future!"

Is this targeting Feng Yongqing to death?

"Director Zhang's screenwriter's works are mostly commercial." The reporter asked, "Why did you suddenly create a film with such a literary and artistic flavor as "Farewell My Concubine"? Then how do you think "Farewell My Concubine" will perform at the box office?"

How can a commercial film win the Palme d'Or at Cannes?

"Can't there be commercial elements in literary and artistic films?" Zhang Yu said with a smile, "Business and literature and art are not mutually exclusive. They are also compatible. In addition, I am still very optimistic about the box office of "Farewell My Concubine."

Before Zhang Hang and others returned to China, Zhang Yu naturally became the focus of the domestic media.

"Is Zhang Shisan's new film intentionally avoiding "Farewell My Concubine"?"

"Zhang Shisan's new film can't catch up with next year's Golden Dragon Award!"

"Zhang Shisan wants to wait for Feng Yongqing's new film, just to compete."

Once Zhang Yu's interview was reported, it triggered a lot of topics.

Every topic is incredibly popular.

There are different opinions as to whether his new film is really not up to date for next year's Golden Dragon Award, or whether he is deliberately avoiding "Farewell My Concubine" and targeting Feng Yongqing.

And what about Feng Yongqing?

Naturally, it is inevitable to be questioned by media reporters.

After all, the popularity of the topic is amazing.

"I will not ignore the quality of the film just to rush for time." Feng Yongqing said, "This is a responsibility for myself and the fans."

"As for whether Zhang Shisan is avoiding Farewell My Concubine or waiting for me, that is his business. Besides, his film may not be shortlisted for the Golden Dragon Award."

"It didn't even get a nomination, how can it compare with "Farewell My Concubine" directed by Zhang Hang?"

"As for me, just make my own movie."

Will "Farewell My Concubine" be shortlisted for next year's Golden Dragon Award?

There is no doubt about this.

But what about Zhang Shisan’s movies?

Who knows!

It hasn't been turned on yet.

Feng Yongqing obviously had great disdain for Zhang Yu's confidence in his words.

He's not even sure he will be nominated for the Golden Dragon Award. Didn't Zhang Shisan just make a comedy film? Why should he?

Even if he has great script writing ability, so what?

"Farewell My Concubine" is definitely a good script, so why didn't Zhang Shisan film it himself, but gave it to Zhang Hang?

He obviously couldn't take pictures well.
