Lionsgate is very interested in the Chinese market. Well, it should be said that all the six major Hollywood players have tried to interfere in the domestic film market.

As early as 1995, Colombia set up a representative office in the capital, investing in "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and "Big Name"...

Then, the global box office of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" ended up with a global box office of $6 million, and it should have a loss of $17 million based on the announced investment of $20 million.

It was the biggest loss in Chinese films back then.

It is said that after seeing the movie, Columbia Company wailed and announced that it would be removed from the position of director He Jing.

There was no intention to release this movie afterwards. In 2004, after "Hero" was a success in the United States, Colombia quickly took it out and released it in the United States, but the final box office was only 80,000 US dollars...

Since then, Colombia has never dared to invest in Chinese-language movies casually...

Warner directly and Hengdian jointly established China Film Warner Hengdian Film Co., Ltd., and invested in "Jade Warrior", "Veel", "1421", "Vote for the Wind"...

No one who makes money finally noticed the horror of the mainland market. He studied Colombia and no longer became a sucker!

The Lion Gate serves as the new sucker!

The investors of "Kung Fu King" are Lions Gate and Dongyang Media, with a production cost of more than US$70 million. They are so brave!

However, Lions Gate has never established a global distribution channel, and the global distribution it mentioned is even more impossible to talk about. It probably wants to be a second-hand dealer!

...

On the third day of Cannes, "Tengou" premiered...

The story of "Tiangou" is very simple, and can be explained clearly in one sentence: the disabled veteran Li Tiangou and the entire village, especially the rural criminal forces, revolve around the "war" of cutting down and protecting national forests. In the end, Li Tiangou protected the law, defended the national property, and upheld justice...

A return of realistic film techniques!

Compared with novels, publicity agencies have much greater control over movies, because the effects of movies among the people are much greater than those of novels.

Compared with novels, the standard for releasing movies is: there should not be too many people die.

For example, "Living" died many fewer people than Yu Hua's "Living";

"Tengou" died fewer than "The Murderer";

Of course, there are war movies like "Three Major Battles".

There is also an invisible rule that the officials who scold you should not be too big.

Uncle Benshan once said that CCTV skits can only curse the village head at most.

It is probably the only standard for movies.

The novel "The Murderer", whether it is the township chief, the deputy county secretary, the deputy county magistrate, the county public security bureau director, and the county forestry bureau director, are all the interests of the village tyrants after reselling forests. When investigating the case, they deliberately blocked the local police station from investigating the truth, appeased the noisy wife of Li Tiangou, and the gourd monk judged the gourd case. In the end, Li Tiangou was judged by the "law" as a "murderer" and died in a sad way in the hospital. A veteran director of the township police station who was also a demobilized soldier was left, preparing to go to the Provincial Public Security Department to make a fuss about Li Tiangou...

Is it possible to shoot like this?

"Tengou" must get the dragon logo!

Otherwise, Qi Jian would be disobedient when he came to Cannes - it was clearly stipulated that all movies participating in the film festival must obtain a release permit!

Therefore, the entire village is like a paradise, with no officials above the township chief intervening;

Also, although Li Tiangou died in the end, two reporters were set up to report the whole incident, and then Li Tiangou died as if it were...

Although the original work was not 100% revealed, the sincerity, faith, perseverance, fierceness, anger in the movie was almost overflowing!

On the big screen, Wang Bo dragged his seriously injured body step by step to the Kong family mansion. At this time, Li Tiangou was not Jesus hanging on the cross, he was going to kill people, and no one distinguished between right and wrong. He was just for his own axioms and right and wrong.

Ambush, set up a gun, aimed, and shouted from his chest: "You bastard, get out of me!"

This momentum and the long-suppressed pleasure caused the entire screening room to burst into applause...

Zhang Junsheng applauded and whispered to Tang Ningyu: "...Brother Bo is definitely qualified to win the Best Actor in this shot!"

“…Well, indeed.”

Tang Ningyu was also a little excited. Good movies and good actors can make the audience empathize.

"Tengou should be sold very well. I'll give you a task, $5 million in overseas copyright. Is there any problem?"

"It's true!"

...

As expected by Zhang Junsheng, there were many figures surrounding Tang Ningyu at the cocktail party that night, not only European film dealers, but also South American and African film dealers...

Roughly estimated, at least more than 8 million US dollars can be earned!

If "Tengou" can win one or two awards, the price will increase.

Director Qi Jian’s handwriting is also considered a cicada that became famous all over the world!

However, Director Qi is a director within the system, and "Tengou" is already his pinnacle. Moreover, the reason why it can be filmed like this is because Yuehua's screenwriter team has given great help.

It's hard to surpass it!

Don’t think it’s embarrassing to sell movies in Cannes. Originally, the reason why everyone gathered in Cannes was that it was a transaction in addition to movies!

"open!"

Natalie walked over with a girl: "This is Scarlett!"

"…Hello, I am Zhang Junsheng!"

Zhang Junsheng glanced at Scarlett, his eyes quickly and fiercely...

Confirmed, at least D, Ding, congratulations on discovering the excellent turret...

It's decided it's you, Scarlett!

Natalie came over and took his arm, showing that the relationship between them was not simple, probably because of... show-off?

I looked at her slightly and it was obvious that I had carefully dressed up, with a black short skirt, collarbone, slim waist, chest... I skipped it,

But her legs were straight and smooth.

Of course, the force wrapped around the waist is very strong, and it is worthy of being the main person who exercises frequently!

Scarlett seemed a little surprised and opened his mouth slightly: "You guys are..."

The lips are very attractive, and the slightly open can almost stuff a piece of it...

"I haven't reached that relationship yet, but I admire him very much!"

Natalie introduced with a little pride…

"Congratulations, Natalie, Zhang is the most talented young director I've ever met!"

Scarlett looked at Zhang Junsheng with a slight jealousy...

Damn, why do you feel this way?

Could it be that these two girls have any unknown past?

After chatting with the two girls for a while, Natalie suddenly said to Zhang Junsheng's ear: "Scarlett wants to try your skills!"

"Water?"

The son of the plane was a little confused. He heard it right?

"…I told her that you are amazing..."

"so?"

"She doesn't believe it!"

Zhang Junsheng swallowed, are Hollywood female celebrities so eager to seek truth?

Do Natalie recognize Anne Hathaway, Emma Roberts, and Megan Fox?

Zhang Junsheng raised his eyebrows: "Do you want to come together?"

"As long as you don't mind!"

Natalie is not showing any weakness…

Zhang Junsheng really wants to say something, of course I don’t mind, the more the better, he wants to hit ten!

I thought again, is this a matter?

Sure, how can a woman be so generous?
