Chapter 138 Injustice? (3/8)
"The Twelve Angry Man" was released in 1957.
A great movie!
Black and white, dull, all the scenes are concentrated in the narrow jury lounge,
When Zhang Junsheng first started playing the movie, he felt that he could tolerate it for at most half an hour, but he was more and more excited to finish it all!
Some movies make you gently touched, while others make you smile with tears,
Some movies hit your heart, while others shock you because something violently shakes your heart.
That kind of thing is called justice and conscience!
"Twelve Angry Man" is this type of movie!
The plot is very simple: 11 jury members found a child guilty of killing his father, but one person held a "reasonable doubt" attitude. Within two hours, he convinced the other eleven people.
The screenwriter is absolutely a master level: he must effectively convey all the information of the twelve people in the length of a movie, such as the personality, origin, temperament, attitude, position, etc. to the audience, and to write down the process of each person's change and the reasons for his heart. He not only did it, but also did it very beautifully.
Zhang Duolong actually imitated "The Twelve Angry Man"?
Chen Yu continued: "We want to make it into a drama first, and then consider the movie..."
"Drama?"
"Yes!" Zhang Duolong said: "We have contacted Happy Twist, and they are willing to help us rehearse this drama..."
“…Happy Twist?”
Chen Yu was worried that Zhang Junsheng didn't know about Mahua, so he quickly explained: "Happy Mahua is a comedy drama team, they..."
Zhang Junsheng waved his hand: "I know them!"
Nonsense, who doesn’t know Happy Twist?
I couldn't help but look at these two guys...
Can you get in touch with Mahua by writing a notebook?
Damn, are I reborn, or are you two reborn?
After thinking about it, Zhang Junsheng asked, "Who are you in contact?"
"Zhang Yiwei!"
"…Zhang Yiwei? Introduce him to meet me!"
Chen Yu blinked: "Ah...Boss, are you interested in Happy Twist?"
"Of course, I have also learned acting, and I still respect the drama... I'll answer a call later..."
Damn, it's Ye Jing...
Why did he call?
Is it a offer to heaven and earth?
"…Now?"
“Where?”
"Old Mo? Okay, I'll go there!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Junsheng was about to speak, but Zhang Duolong had already said: "You go first, I will contact you the day after tomorrow, and I will introduce Zhang Yiwei to you by the way!"
"...Then I'll leave first, you two can play slowly!"
...
Chen Yu and Zhang Duolong are not very interested in the Beijing circle. They and Fu Guangsheng's original intention are to make the movies they want to make, and they can support themselves by the way...
Not much ambition!
Very good, very pure filmmaker!
Listening to Ye Jing's tone, he seemed to be quite anxious. Zhang Junsheng took a car and went straight to the address he mentioned.
"Hello sir, do you have any reservations?"
As soon as I entered the door, a beautiful waiter came over and asked politely.
He took off his sunglasses and told him the name of the box Ye Jing told him. The waiter was obviously a little excited and covered his mouth and did not scream.
“…Please…”
Following the young lady, Zhang Junsheng went upstairs and stopped at the door of the private room. The sound inside could be heard through the door...
When Zhang Junsheng came in, everyone inside stood up, led by Wang Shuo and Ma Xiaokang, and they were all over, which scared Zhang Junsheng directly. Why are there so many people?
No, why is Ma Xiaokang here too?
"Mr. Zhang, here you come!" Ye Jing, as the master, walked over with a smile and grabbed Zhang Junsheng's arm and said, "Come on, I'll introduce these to you."
“…No need, I’ve seen it all on TV!”
Even if I haven't seen it on TV, I've seen it in magazines...
Zhang Guoli, Ma Xiaokang and Ye Daying are all meeting for the first time.
This bureau should be an internal gathering in the Beijing circle. Why do you want to find Zhang Junsheng?
I was confused, shook hands and greeted several people and sat down, but I couldn't figure it out. What kind of situation is this?
A few people looked at you, and I looked at him, but Ye Jing still spoke: "Junsheng, do you know "Tiananmen"?"
“…Of course I know, where the national flag is raised…”
"No, I'm talking about the movie "Tiananmen" directed by Daying..."
“…I don’t know much about this…”
In September, there was only "The Founding of a Country", and all other movies were cannon fodder!
“…”
Ye Daying, who was sitting opposite him, smiled bitterly...
"That's right," Ye Jing told a story about an "unfair treatment".
Ye Daying is a director and has directed two red plots: "Red Cherry" and "Red Lovers". It has a reputation and box office, and "Red Lovers" is starring Zhang Guorong and Mei Ting!
Last year, Yuanmeng Film and Television was established. The first movie I invested in was "Tiananmen" directed by Ye Daying, with a shooting cost of 40 million yuan!
The filming was completed in June and I wanted to hand it over to Dongyang Media or Yuehua for distribution, but Zhongying broke the issue and won the right to issue...
Ye Daying can trust the distribution power of Zhongying, so he agreed!
Unexpectedly, "The Founding of a Country" will be released on September 19, and "Tiananmen" will also be released on September 19...
Both are tribute films, and "Tiananmen" has become a sacrificial film...
"Han Shanping gave all the publicity and promotion resources to "The Founding of the People's Republic of China", and "Tiananmen" did not promote it well... It was released for a week and the box office was less than 6 million... It was about to be offline in the theater..."
Zhang Junsheng knew it: "Do you want Yuehua Cinema to schedule more films?"
"...What's the use of scheduling films now? Not many people watched them at all!" Ye Daying spoke and added anger: "Han Shanping has his own resources and ability to promote his own films. "Tiananmen" cannot enter the market at all! With the ability, we are in the same cinema, and invite the same group of viewers to watch these two movies, and then finish watching them. This is fair. There are many unspoken rules for blockbusters!"
"Actually, I think it's not a bad thing for Han Shanping to make such a movie. He also has this right. The mistake is that he disrupts the situation - who will shoot Chinese movies in the future? Not to mention this, he disrupted a rule. He is the leader of a state-owned enterprise. It is very unfair to use national resources to promote a movie. Are there other filmmakers?"
So? Are you looking for Zhang Junsheng in the middle of the night and holding a complaint meeting?
Do you want Zhang Junsheng to expose the hypocrisy?
After looking at Zhang Junsheng, Ye Jing spoke: "…It's like that. We are going to make a comedy movie, "Private Customization". There is a lack of actors. Can you act it?"
Wang Shuo added: "You don't have to worry about the movie pay, 5 million!"
"...I don't have time. "Tangshan Earthquake" is about to start. I will have to stay on the set in the next six months!"
Zhang Junsheng quickly shirked away...
Chapter completed!
