Disaster Artist

Shi Wenxun?

A familiar but unexpected name, especially when Yu Shao and Shen Chunsheng were discussing expanding the superhero universe, the film helm of the Detective Comics universe suddenly appeared in the conversation. Is it too coincidental?

Shen Chunsheng was also lost in thought.

Yu Shao cast a glance at Shen Chunsheng, "Has Mr. Shen heard any actions of Streamer Films in the circle recently?"

Shen Chunsheng raised his head. As the helm of Lei Ming's brokerage, he knew more senior management and was better informed, but the difference was not that big.

He thought for a while, "Zhang Benqing intends to personally direct his own Dark Knight series, which is one of the reasons why Liuguang Pictures found him to play the role, but recently I heard that there were some differences in the script creation, and Zhang Benqing and Liuguang Pictures were in trouble. Not very happy, the script is currently being revised."

This is indeed the inside story, and it has not been circulated for the time being.

Zhang Benqing, the last half a year has been very hard.

One side, the excellent reputation of "Love" could have been Zhang Benqing's first chance to nominate for the Golden Book Award, but in the end it passed by by accident.

On the one hand, the bad reputation of "Dawn of Justice" further overwhelmed the heavy pressure Zhang Benqing had been carrying, and the curses and curses were overwhelming.

But it is undeniable that as a director, Zhang Benqing's recognition goes far beyond the work of an actor, which is an objective fact.

At the beginning, Liuguang Films invited Zhang Benqing to play the role of the Dark Knight, just with a wishful thinking, Zhang Benqing directed and starred in a superhero movie.

There is no doubt that this will be a publicity stunt, and Zhang Benqing will also become the first actor-director ever to accomplish such a feat.

However, the epic rout of "Dawn of Justice" forced all plans to be readjusted. Not only did the movie fail, but Zhang Benqing's version of the Dark Knight was surrounded and attacked in all directions, whether it was Zhang Benqing himself or Liuguang Films, all under enormous pressure.

Against such a background, the idea of ​​directing and starring a "Dark Knight" by Zhang Benqing doesn't seem so wonderful.

However, let me say one thing, Zhang Benqing has deep roots in the industry. He is definitely not a nobody, not a small character who will come and go when he is called. Therefore, Liuguang Films did not rashly change course. Next, they and Zhang Benqing The game should be entangled for a while.

So, is this related to Shi Wenxun's call?

Could it be that Shi Wenxun is going to invite Lu Qian to direct a new series of "Dark Knight", and to go with Zhang Benqing?

Yu Shao felt that whether Lu Qian was interested or not, but Zhang Benqing should have made a strong protest, right?

Yu Shao didn't continue to delay time, Shi Wenxun was still online, he cast a questioning gaze towards Shen Chunsheng, and after getting a positive answer, Yu Shao nodded lightly at Shen Yanshu.

"Transfer here."

Shen Yanshu only remembered at this moment, nodded to Shen Chunsheng, and hurriedly turned around and ran back.

Shen Chunsheng's attention was not on Shen Yanshu at all, and he was completely lost in thought.

Line two.

Yu Shao answered the phone, because Shen Chunsheng was present, he didn't hide it, and turned on the speakerphone directly.

Shi Wenxun is very polite. Just like the rumors, he is like a scholar. He always speaks with honorifics and honorifics, and his tone is very gentle.

To be precise, he is not so much a scholar as a poet, a poet who still retains his literary temperament and philosophical thinking, which is also reflected in his video style. The iconic slow motion can be seen everywhere, slowing down the rhythm. , leaving the audience space for precipitation and reflection.

Although this move has mixed reviews and different effects in commercial films, it is undeniable that Shi Wenxun is indeed a stylized director.

Shi Wenxun called mainly to express his apology, hoping to have a chance to sit down with Lu Qian and apologize for the unpleasantness of the last meeting with Wei Shengxin.

At least, that's the obvious reason, but everyone knows it's an excuse—

It has been nearly a year since Wei Shengxin's meeting, even if it is an apology, there is no need to wait until now.

The mention of Wei Shengxin is actually a hint that they want to talk about the detective universe. Wei Shengxin was not able to open up the situation at the beginning, and now Liuguang Pictures hopes to get the opportunity to sit down with Lu Qian again.

After all, in the shopping mall, there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests. Although they have had unpleasant disputes, they can still coexist peacefully for the sake of common interests.

The most important thing is that Shi Wenxun called and released two signals:

First, Shi Wenxun is the chief producer of Detective Universe, and he has enough weight to show his sincerity.

Second, Shi Wenxun used his apology as a reason, showing a sincere attitude and showing a positive attitude.

It can be seen that Streamer Films is sincere. This time, they should reach a higher consensus internally, which also gives Shi Wenxun confidence.

but-

Yu Shao declined.

"I'm very sorry, the director is currently in retreat..."

Absolutely.

On the grounds that Lu Qian is busy creating, cutting off Shi Wenxun's space for further inquiry is actually tantamount to rejecting the olive branch of Liuguang Films.

However, Yu Shao's words still left some room, such as "the director has always liked the works of director Shi Wenxun", "the director did not care about the last meeting, but was honored" and other social occasions, which eased the atmosphere. , which may leave room for subsequent potential development.

Then, hung up the phone.

Shen Chunsheng frowned slightly, although he didn't open his mouth to question, his expression already explained something, and he had some doubts about Yu Shao's handling.

reject?

so firm?

Shen Chunsheng didn't unexpectedly "reject" the answer, but could the handling of things be softer and smoother? That's the job of a broker, isn't it?

Yu Shao has been bathed in Shen Chunsheng's eyes, and when he opened his mouth to reject Shi Wenxun, he had already foreseen such a result, so it was not surprising.

"President Shen, the director won't be interested."

Facing Shen Chunsheng, Yu Shao's answer was the real tough one.

"Accurately, the director has no problem with superhero movies, but he has no interest in assembly line work, and without his style, then he is no longer a director."

"Liuguang Pictures is slightly better than Fantastic Pictures. They will at least allow directors to leave some personal styles, but this freedom is also very limited."

"Liuguang Pictures is too urgent and anxious right now. They hope to catch up with Fantastic Pictures with great strides and shorten the six-year gap between them, but the point is that Fantastic Pictures' Success doesn't come in a day, and the foundation of these six years cannot be ignored."

"So, no matter which director is at the helm of Detective Universe, the ending is the same, whether it's Shi Wenxun or Zhang Benqing, including the director. They can't reverse the will of Streamer Films, and in the end they just try to survive, barely retaining a little bit of their own style. , but the quality of the finished product is sparse.”

In this regard, Yu Shao has always maintained a clear head.
