Disaster Artist

"But what about 'Deadpool'?"

After going around in circles, Xiu Zhongjun finally cut into the primary task of this trip. Compared with other things, the preparation progress of "Deadpool" is the most important key at present.

After all, besides Blue Whale Films, there is another Lions Films that is waiting hard. After they are the shopkeepers, they stand talking and don’t feel pain in their backs. The fact that it has not been able to be put into production for more than ten years.

What's more, for Blue Whale Pictures itself, it is the first time to make a superhero movie, no matter what the size of the movie is, the importance of the project is self-evident.

Xiu Zhongjun thought about it seriously.

"According to the director's conception, 'Deadpool' should be more suitable for the spring season. This film should be able to form a direct contrast with 'Fast Pursuit'. The same type of film, the same style and color, can be used in different ways. presented."

"However, Lion Pictures is very hopeful that it will be released in the summer."

Click till.

But Ji Xu rolled his eyes and complained mercilessly, "It's more than 'very hopeful', they have held two joint company meetings, and they keep emphasizing that the summer vacation is our best opportunity."

Xiu Zhongjun was expressionless, but did not refute Ji Xu.

Lu Qian raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, because he didn't get any wind here at all, "Then how did you answer?"

Ji Xu didn't even think about it, "Impossible. I'll tell them to get out of here, either they'll be solely responsible for the production, or they'll keep their mouths shut."

Tough and direct.

It seems that the outside world has always said that Lion Pictures and Blue Whale Pictures are in the honeymoon period of cooperation, but the reality is not the case, and there are still many stumblings.

Indeed, as Ji Xu said, when Lion Pictures was preparing for "Deadpool", they looked ahead, procrastinated, mother-in-law, and hesitant. The film industry took over, and they transformed themselves into charter wives.

This is really ridiculous.

Although it is said that Blue Whale Pictures and Lion Pictures are cooperating, they still need to look at each other. After all, the copyright of "Deadpool" is in the hands of the other party, but Ji Xu will not forget one important point--

"When they heard that you were willing to accept it, they were so hype, they wanted to put the hot potato in your hands right away, but in fact, you don't lack projects. The third installment in the series'."

"By the way, did I tell you?"

"Tang Junyi called me last time to ask me when you will start preparing for the finale of the 'marriage trilogy'. He is looking forward to it. I was a little surprised, but thinking about it, it should be Tang Junyi's gesture of extending an olive branch, saying The previous things have been left behind, and he sends a friendly signal through me."

Lu Qian was a little helpless, he was about to say—

"Marriage Trilogy", this is not a project.

From "tourist" to "lover, although the thematic core is in the same line, the creations are independent of each other.

Of course, Lu Qian really hopes to create a series that explores marriage, love and intimacy from different angles, but the title of the trilogy is still a bit strange.

But Lu Qian immediately thought that it seemed that the concept of "trilogy" was admitted by himself in an interview——

"Heaven Comes"

Wait, did he admit it? Still not admitting it?

The words stopped for a while.

Xiu Zhongjun immediately said, "Director, the situation is not that bad, you don't have to worry."

"Mr. Ji just told them that if they have any opinions on the progress of the project, they can contact you directly, because you are the producer of 'Deadpool'."

Lu Qian's thoughts came back, but he couldn't help but be stunned, "But, they didn't contact me?"

Full of question marks.

"Did you contact Brother Yu? But Brother Yu didn't tell me."

Ji Xu and Xiu Zhongjun exchanged glances, and then Ji Xu laughed, "I knew they didn't have the guts to urge you directly."

"They are also paper lions. They show their teeth and claws in front of us, hoping to put pressure on us, but in fact they don't dare to put pressure on you at all. Now all their hopes are on you. What kind of male lion is a male lion? An old fox."

Ji Xu, precise Tucao.

Xiu Zhongjun also showed a smile in his eyes, "Director, I think they want the summer release, this action itself is confidence in the movie, but they also know that the confidence in the movie comes from you, so they only dare to show it to you. We put pressure on you, but don't dare to contact you. Just do it at your own pace, don't worry about us."

The current Blue Whale Pictures is not a soft persimmon that can be squeezed casually. Even Lions Pictures would not dare to be too tough in front of them.

Lu Qian pursed his lips, "Anyway, everyone is looking at the box office numbers, but no one cares about how the movie is made."

It is because of this that Lu Qian didn't want to be too involved in the company's decision-making, because managing the company and making movies are basically two systems.

The former is numbers and needs reason; the latter is art and needs sensibility.

Seeing Lu Qian's indifferent expression, Xiu Zhongjun asked again, "What about the director? About the schedule?"

Lu Qian didn't speak immediately, but thought about it seriously.

really!

According to the strategy of Blue Whale Pictures, "Deadpool" is suitable for the spring season, and it is definitely too late this year, that is next spring.

According to the strategy of Lions Pictures, they hope to lay out their own superhero movies, and naturally hope to debut this summer.

So, what should they do?

Lu Qian picked up the tea cup, and gently slid his fingertips on the edge of the cup, feeling the warm tea fragrance delivered by the slightly hot temperature~www.readwn.com~ Well, let's decide the autumn season, September or October. "

Is this a compromise solution?

"You replied like this. It takes time to prepare and shoot a movie. The summer season must be too rushed. I'm not a robot, and I can't work day and night. Unless they give me a higher salary, then shut up."

"Moreover, the investment and production cost of 'Deadpool' is only 300 million yuan, so what's the fun of going to the summer camp? If they want to participate in the summer camp melee, then increase the budget for the crew. I am willing to give it a try, otherwise it will be closed. mouth."

"Shut up" one by one, it was neat and straightforward, which made Ji Xuchi laugh, "They still disliked me for being too direct, so they should talk to you. Only then did they know what it means to be straight. Run again."

Xiu Zhongjun didn't join in the complaints, but thought about the feasibility, "Director, the spring file of 'Raid 2', the autumn file of 'Quick Pursuit 2' and 'Human Clearance Project 2', if we add 'Deadpool' Is it too crowded into the autumn stall?"

"'Quick Pursuit 2' should be postponed to the spring of next year." Lu Qian did not hesitate, and gave his opinion, "Our current resources are still relatively limited, and there is no way to fully promote the plan, but after adjustment, some arrangements will be It can be expanded step by step.”

Xiu Zhongjun nodded to show his understanding.

In the light of writing, the blueprint of Blue Whale Pictures has been laid out slowly.

Just when Xiu Zhongjun and Ji Xu were about to leave, Xiu Zhongjun remembered something and stopped again.
