Chapter 621 The contest between the two movies(1/2)
Skyview Entertainment.
Wu Hong, the director of "Arms 1", was a little dumbfounded when he saw the news online that "Wolf Warrior 2" was about to start filming.
Because of the popularity of "Arms 1", many follow-up works have appeared in the film industry recently, springing up like mushrooms after a rain.
Good guy, Tan Yue really knows how to play. He didn't even appear in "Wolf Warrior 1" and just made a "Wolf Warrior 2". What's more, it's Tan Yue's first film. Wu Hong thinks this popularity is a bit too much.
Too much.
Wu Hong couldn't help frowning, sneered, and thought to himself, it seems that he still thinks highly of Tan Yue, young people still can't escape the word "traffic".
Knowing that Tan Yue was going to cross over from TV series to movies, Wu Hong was really looking forward to what type of subject Tan Yue's first movie would be.
In his heart, Wu Hong has always felt that Tan Yue is a person with great personality. Each of the four TV series he has produced has a different theme, and each one is particularly popular. How can he do such a good job in the director circle?
The achievements of people are negligible.
Such a talented junior will definitely not follow the market trends.
But when he saw the news on the Internet today, he was still a little disappointed.
In Wu Hong's view, Tan Yue's transformation has failed.
If you want to become a top-notch film director in the country, the important thing is to make whatever movie you make that is popular. It can be a blockbuster or a literary one, but it does not matter which movie is popular. Just go and make it. Following the trend is bound to fail.
Wu Hong turned off the news on the Internet and stopped paying attention to "Wolf Warrior 2".
"Arms 1" received a total of 2.5 billion in box office, and "Arms 2" was quickly put on the agenda, and preparations are currently being made for the film project.
When filming "Arms 1", because it was a relatively unpopular movie subject, the senior management of Tianjing Entertainment did not dare to invest too much money. They also found several other small companies to bear the risk together, and they were still a little embarrassed in terms of funds.
In Wu Hong's opinion, the quality of "Arms 1" is barely passable.
It’s different now. With the success of the first film, “Arms 2” not only has strong support from companies, but also has many companies vying to invest money in it.
The senior management of Tianjing Entertainment Company has already issued a notice to the financial department. As long as the funding for "Arms 2" is approved, it will be passed directly.
With extremely sufficient funds, Wu Hong decided to go big this time to make up for the regrets in the first film.
Wu Hong has extraordinary confidence in "Arms 2". For him, "Wolf Warrior 2" is of the same nature as the movies that follow the trend in the market now, and it is not a competitor at all.
The preliminary preparations for "Arms 2" are very fast and have basically been completed. It can be promoted in the media tomorrow.
‘Dong dong dong’, there was a knock on the office door.
"Please come in." Wu Hong said.
Qin Feng opened the door and came in with the script, sat opposite Wu Hong, and said: "Director Wu, I would like to ask you about the character."
The plot of "Arms 2" is not very similar to the first one. Almost all the starring cast has been changed. Qin Feng is the male protagonist this time.
Qin Feng knew that "Arms 2" was about to start filming, so he approached Qin Da and said he wanted to play the leading role in the drama.
Faced with Qi Xue's repeated rejections, Qin Feng did not give up.
He feels that as long as he can find a work that will make him popular and become the most popular star artist in the entertainment industry, he can restore his status in Tianjing Entertainment Company.
At that time, Qi Xue will also take a new look at herself and re-examine her relationship with him.
Qin Da also knew what Qin Feng meant, but for a great director like Wu Hong, Qin Da would naturally not interfere with the casting.
Tianjing Entertainment has been ranked among the first-class entertainment companies for many years, which is inseparable from Qin Da's way of doing things. He has always believed that professional things should be done by professional people.
Qin Da only agreed to recommend Qin Feng to Wu Hong. Whether he can become the protagonist depends on him.
Qin Feng seized this opportunity, and with his excellent acting skills, he was successfully spotted by Wu Hong and became the leading actor in "Arms 2". Perhaps Qin Feng does not have much advantage compared to other first-line actors, but in
Even though the conditions were similar, Wu Hong was willing to betray his boss to save face.
Wu Hong was very satisfied when he saw Qin Feng's serious attitude. Naturally, he explained the drama carefully, analyzed the characters, and analyzed the plot, covering everything.
An hour later, the two of them had moved to the coffee table, drinking tea and chatting about the characters in the play.
After Wu Hong's guidance, Qin Feng has thoroughly understood the character he will play in the play, and all the problems that have troubled him for several days have been solved.
Qin Feng was not in a hurry to leave, and the two chatted over tea. "Wolf Warrior 2" is a hot news in entertainment at the moment, so it was naturally mentioned by the two of them.
Wu Hong said: "Have you watched "Wolf Warrior 2" mentioned on the Internet?"
Qin Feng put down the cup in his hand, became more energetic, and said: "Director Wu, I think Tan Yue is just riding on our popularity. "Wolf Warrior 1" doesn't even exist, so it's called "Wolf Warrior 2." A discerning person can see the difference.
question."
Wu Hong said nothing and nodded slightly.
Qin Feng said: "There is a saying that goes well, the higher you are praised, the worse you will fall. Bright Entertainment has contacted so many media reporters to report on this matter, and their worship of Tan Yue is a bit too much."
Tan Yue has always been successful in TV dramas, with one TV series being popular and the other becoming popular. In Qin Feng's opinion, Bright Entertainment Company will definitely suffer a big loss this time.
Qin Feng coughed lightly and continued: "Tan Yue's wishful thinking this time was wrong. The popularity of military-themed movies is not something that can be easily achieved. He has been going so smoothly, and it is time for him to stumble.
Already."
"Arms 1" is currently the ceiling of the military-themed box office. With more investment, the quality of the second part will be higher. Qin Feng feels very comfortable when he thinks that after the two movies are released, he will be able to step on Tan Yue.
.
He wanted Qi Xue to see that the man she had always longed for was not as good as him.
Thinking of this, Qin Feng's eyes lit up and he couldn't wait to see that day come. Maybe Qi Xue would take the initiative to come find him.
Wu Hong said leisurely: "Young people should experience more setbacks so that they can grow."
...
the next day.
Tianjing Entertainment contacted major media to announce the start of filming of "Arms 2", and the publicity intensity was no weaker than that of "Wolf Warrior 2".
Naturally, this quickly aroused heated discussion on the Internet.
"Wow! I finally saw the news about "Arms 2". After watching the first part, I was so excited that I had the urge to join the army. I am very much looking forward to the second part."
"The military-themed movies that have been released recently are almost making me vomit. I don't know what these directors are thinking about what they filmed. I hope that "Arms 2" can be completed as soon as possible and released as soon as possible, so that my collapsed world view can be restored.
Build it up again."
"The protagonist of the second part is actually Qin Feng, my male idol. I haven't seen his works for a long time. I think he will look very handsome in military uniform."
"Yesterday I saw the launch of "Wolf Warrior 2", and today I saw "Arms 2". I wonder which of the two movies is better?"
"Comparing the two movies, I am still optimistic about "Arms 2". After all, it is the first movie to make this subject popular, and the second one should not be bad. And it is Tan Yue's first time making a movie, and it is still like this
Military-themed movies might be on the same level as the movies that follow the current trend."
""Wolf Warrior 2" is a popular movie at first glance. How can it be compared with "Arms 2"? Don't shoot it before it starts filming, so as to save you money later."
Two movies of the same type have been announced to be released, and both are directed by famous directors. Their names are somewhat similar, so it is inevitable that netizens will compare them together.
With the popularity of "Arms 1", people are naturally more optimistic about "Arms 2".
...
Magic City.
Qi Xue was wearing a white rabbit-shaped pajamas, sitting cross-legged on the sofa, holding a tablet, and scrolling through entertainment news.
During this time, she has been studying scripts at home and rarely goes to the company. After the spring, her new drama will start filming.
For some reason, her phone would often send him news about Tan Yue. After she clicked on it and read it, she would push more news later.
Qi Xue looked at the comparison between the two dramas on the Internet, biting the corner of her mouth slightly, rubbing her fingers constantly, feeling a little uneasy in her heart, and a little worried about Tan Yue.
With the popularity of "Arms 1", the box office of the second part will definitely be very high.
As for Tan Yue's movie, just seeing the name "Wolf Warrior 2", Qi Xue also felt that it was riding on the popularity.
Qi Xue was very puzzled. Tan Yue's TV series have always been eclectic and the subject matter has never been popular. But why did he start such a thing in his first battle as a film director?
"Do you have no confidence in yourself?" I thought to myself.
In Qi Xue's eyes, the main purpose of such popular movies is to make money. Even if the actors' acting skills are passable, the workmanship of the movie is rough and the plot is a mess. How can a popular movie become popular?
Qi Xue is not optimistic about the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2". It would be good if the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" can earn back the money.
Qi Xue closed the tablet, put it aside, lay on the sofa, sighed, and laughed at herself: "Are you stupid?"
At the Feitian Award, the two people were sitting in the front and back rows. They were so close together that Tan Yue didn't even look at him. Although he knew clearly that there was no possibility of the two of them getting back together, Qi Xue still couldn't let go.
There was no sound in the room, Qi Xue just lay there with her eyes closed, and scenes of the two people's past appeared in her mind.
...
...
Beijing.
Bright Entertainment Company.
Chen Ye knocked on the door of Tan Yue's office angrily.
Tan Yue asked doubtfully: "Xiaoye, what's wrong with you? Who made you angry?"
Chen Ye handed the phone to Tan Yue: "Mr. Tan, look at the comments online. The movie hasn't been filmed yet. They are starting to say that our movie is not as good as "Arms 2" and that "Wolf Warrior 2" is just trying to gain popularity.
