Superstar Couple

Chapter 108 He's Coming to a Big Production This Time (Part 2)

What Zhang Le didn't expect was that he didn't receive a reply from Li Jie, but he got a call from Chen Ke. Some doubts, but Zhang Le was relieved after thinking about it.

Before Li Jie went to Hollywood, he and Chen Ke were old partners. Even Li Jie's success today is probably due to Chen Ke's contribution apart from his own efforts. The two are both teachers and friends.

If understanding can achieve today's achievements, Chen Ke should be most grateful.

"Did Director Chen say something nice for me?" Zhang Le asked with a smile if he asked Li Jie to act in a new film.

"I told you, do you want to report something!" Chen Ke said with a smile.

"That's easy to say!" Zhang Le said with a smile.

"Just kidding!" Chen Ke said with a smile, "From Li Jie's words, I can tell that he is somewhat moved by your script, but he has some concerns. I reckon he will talk to you. Can you dispel it?" His concern depends on your own ability."

When Zhang Le heard it, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Then I will thank Director Chen first. I will treat you to dinner when I come back."

"That's a good relationship." Chen Ke smiled and said, "I thought you were holding your breath and wanted to make a movie and compete for the Golden Dragon Award, but I didn't expect you to make a big move and pay attention to Li Jie's head." Come on. Martial arts movies are not easy to shoot these days!"

"It's hard to chew a bone to taste it." Zhang Le said with a smile.

"How about it?"

After Zhang Le hung up the phone, Yang Xiner asked curiously.

"Li Jie is tempted, but he doesn't have much confidence in me and has some concerns." Zhang Le smiled and said.

"I believe you can make his worries go away." Yang Xiner said with a smile.

"Our trip this time is probably coming to an end." Zhang Le said apologetically.

Yang Xiner smiled, looked at Zhang Le, but suddenly asked, "Who are you going to play as Luo Xiaohu?"

Zhang Le was taken aback when he heard it. Then seeing Yang Xiner's smile, Zhang Le immediately understood. Yang Xiner starred in Yu Jiaolong in the film, and Luo Xiaohu and Yu Jiaolong had an intimate scene in the film. Yang Xiner asked with such an expression, the meaning is self-evident.

"I'll act!" Zhang Le thought for a while, then smiled and said.

Zhang Le doesn't like being in front of the scene, but it doesn't mean he rejects it. What's more, he planned to star in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" by himself. Accumulating some acting skills first is also good.

It didn't take much for Zhang Le to persuade Li Jie. "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" Zhang Le used the original version as a reference, and spent a lot of energy on analysis, thinking, and research. He is undoubtedly more attentive to this movie than the previous two.

Although the first two films are classics, their artistry, influence and achievements of the film itself cannot be compared with this one.

Zhang Le didn't expect to achieve the same achievements as the original version in his previous life, but he didn't allow himself to have the original version as a reference and the filming was not satisfactory. Standing on the shoulders of giants, one must be higher than actually touching. As for the achievements of the original version, in addition to the film itself, there are also factors of its own environment.

Zhang Le can control the movie itself, but the general environment is controlled by Zhang Le. Like the contenders for those awards, who can guarantee it?

Zhang Le and Yang Xiner returned from Hawaii. "Tang Bohu Spots the Autumn Fragrance" has already been released. It unexpectedly won more than 500 million box office, and "Crazy Stone" won a total box office of 1 billion. This undoubtedly made many film and television The company was surprised.

What surprised me was not the sum of the box office, but the comparison between the investment cost and the sum of the box office. The profits of these two films have made many film and television companies envious and jealous.

Xinle Film Studio seems to have a tendency to transform into a film and television company, and the recruitment during this period has attracted many people to join.

Zhang Le and Yang Xiner returned to China very low-key, and did not attract many people's attention. As soon as he returned to China, Zhang Le began to prepare a new film.

First of all, Zhang Le did not confirm the cast, but invited Ye Ming, the leading art director in China, and Bao Zhen, the photography director.

Cinematography and art direction were crucial to this film. Although Zhang Le has the original version as a reference, it is impossible for him to cover every detail. He doesn't have that ability, nor does he have that energy.

Ye Ming and Bao Zhen have great reputations, and they have not signed any contract with any film and television company, so they can be regarded as freelance filmmakers. But they have never been short of work, and they even choose films and directors.

Zhang Le was also very lucky, meeting them during their free time. But to convince them, Zhang Le wasted no effort.

Zhang Le has a great reputation and a strong box office appeal, but in the eyes of filmmakers like Ye Ming and Bao Zhen, he is just a newcomer, and even looks down on him.

The two of them are filmmakers at the master level, and they are frequent guests of the Golden Dragon Awards. Almost all the directors they cooperate with are at the level of major directors. Although Zhang Le's two films caused quite a stir, he is still a newcomer in the industry. In terms of photography and art, the two movies are really not good.

It doesn't take long to shoot a film, but it's different if you include the pre-production and post-production.

The crew was formed successfully. This time, Zhang Le spent a lot of effort and invited many famous filmmakers. The level of the entire crew has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Of course, this is also an excellent opportunity for Zhang Le to improve his crew.

Although Zhang Le had a good idea of ​​the location where the location was filmed, he still took the crew to inspect the location and discussed it repeatedly.

During this period, the cast was also confirmed immediately.

Li Jie, an international action star, played Li Mubai, Yang Xiner played Yu Jiaolong, Zhang Le played Luo Xiaohu, and another heroine, Yu Xiulian, Zhang Le invited Yang Liu.

Yang Liu is the younger sister of the dancer Yang Li, who also studied dance. However, she did not develop in the dance industry, but used her dance foundation to achieve great success in action movies. It can be said that she is second to none in the country. What is even more commendable is that she is also the queen of the Golden Dragon Award, with excellent acting skills.

Yang Liu is now in her thirties and forties. She was once very popular, but she retired after getting married. Her reputation may not be as good as before, but playing the role of Yu Xiulian is still exciting.

The four leading actors are confirmed, and the supporting roles are also confirmed immediately. The extremely important role of the blue-eyed fox is played by Zhen Pei, who plays Mrs. China in "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance". This is somewhat similar to the original versions of the two movies in the previous life.

Zhang Le is now considered an extremely well-known director, and his popularity is much higher than that of ordinary directors, so he is still paying close attention to his new film.

What's more, he and Yang Xin'er both received media attention, and Zhang Le returned empty-handed from the Golden Dragon Awards, which sparked a lot of discussion. The film "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" has become polarized in word-of-mouth again. Compared with its astonishing box office, it has caused a lot of topics.

This is a film that has attracted much attention. After the list of main creators was announced, it shocked the entire film and television circle. Everyone can see that Zhang Le's new film is going to be a big production!
