Chapter 403 Premiere! The storm starts
As the director, Katherine presented the opening words
"I'm happy to be with you at the premiere of "Twilight". Thank you DreamWorks Pinnacle Entertainment for your support, thank you Wang, thank you Heidi Martin, thank you DreamWorks for your support. Also, thank you actors Christine, Robert, Ashley Greene, Taylor Lotner and other actors for your support.
Everyone knows that our work did not receive everyone’s support at the beginning of its project, including many people still think this is a bad decision. Yes, we are under a lot of pressure.
Now is the time to give the market a test. I think I have done my best. Please enjoy the movie."
What Katherine said was not good, but it was the truth.
To this day, many people still think it is a bad decision.
"Poss, I think even if this movie is successful, director Catherine is not suitable as a director of the sequel." Heidi Martin said to Wang Meng.
After listening, Wang Meng asked: "Why?"
"Director Catherine is a very stubborn director. Yes, she is too stubborn. In fact, if this movie is based on her expectations, it will not be like this! Can you imagine that she actually wanted to turn an idol TV series into a literary and artistic movie? Fortunately, we have the final editing rights, otherwise we would not be able to guarantee the theme of the movie." Heidi Martin said.
Wang Meng knew that Catherine was a stubborn director or a director who was literary and artistic. From her previous works, it can be seen that it is mostly literary and artistic. Such movies may win awards, but you don’t have to think about making money.
And nowadays, Tingfeng Entertainment lacks money-making movies, not award-winning movies.
According to Heidi Martin, if it weren't for the final editing rights and had a great intention with her producer, "Twilight" would have changed a lot long ago.
So, during the filming process, Katherine barely finished the film for the sake of the contract. But it was definitely not the style she wanted.
Strictly speaking, it was Heidi Martin and associate director Chris Wetz's intention to film.
"Then who do you think the director of the sequel tends to be after this success?" Wang Meng was not surprised after a brief understanding.
He knows the direction of the movie. It can be said that the Twilight series is a hodgepodge. The first director is Katherine Hardwick, the second is Chris Wetz, the third is David Sred, and the fourth is Bill Conton...
The directors of each movie are different, and perhaps it is each director who has his own style that makes this series successful.
"I think the deputy director Chris Wez is good." Heidi Martin finished speaking and looked at Wang Meng carefully.
Wang Meng was unexpectedly happy and said, "I believe in your vision. As long as the first part is successful, you will have everything below to control. I have no objection. Similarly, if you have a good work plan, you and Robert can decide, and I will know it roughly."
Wang Meng can be said to have delegated power, and it has a lot of power.
Heidi Martin didn't know that the Chinese "scholars died for their confidants, and the women were pleased for their confidants." But he was very moved by Wang Meng's trust.
"Thank you for your trust. You know that we are not idle with "Bomb Demolition Force", "Bloom Brothers", "The Moon Adventure", "Never Back", "Beauty and the Ugly Girl", these works are also produced or released by us. By publishing "Butterfly Effect" and "Saw 2" and more recently "The Shining", the company no longer needs the capital injection from its headquarters, and even has a lot of balance."
"It's very good. I heard from DreamWorks Zhao Jisen. But there seem to be a few movies that are not ideal?" Wang Meng said.
"Yes, "Beauty and Ugly" and "Bloom Brothers" are not ideal, and they even lose money. But we have great confidence in "Bomb Demolition Force". This movie may be difficult to make money, and we have confidence in awards."
Seeing that Heidi Martin said so confidently, Wang Meng laughed. It seems that the inertia of history is really great.
As for Wang Meng knows his excellence in "The Bomb Demolition Force", he will not say anything about Heidi Martin, and Wang Meng will also remind him.
Because this movie was not well-known at the beginning, it was simply amazing in terms of awards.
Best Film at the 2010 Academy Awards - Winning - "Bomb Disposal Force", Best Director - Winning - Catherine Bigelow "Bomb Disposal Force", Best Original Script - Winning - Mark Ball "Bomb Disposal Force", Best Sound Effect - Winning - Paul Otuson "Bomb Disposal Force", Best Movie Editing - Winning - Chris Inis "Bomb Disposal Force", Best Sound Effect Editing - Winning - Paul Otuson "Bomb Disposal Force".
Best Actor - Nomination - Jeremy Renner "Bomb Disposal Force", Best Photography - Nomination - Barry Ecclaud "Bomb Disposal Force", Best Original Soundtrack - Nomination - Marco Bertramy "Bomb Disposal Force".
2010 American Golden Globe Awards - Nomination - Film category - Drama category Best Film, Film category - Best Director - Nomination - Catherine Bigelow, Film category - Best Screenwriter - Nomination - Mark Ball.
These are just Golden Ball and Oscars. In addition, "Bomb Disposal Force" has won 121 awards and 85 nominations worldwide.
Hongguoguo's award-winning tycoon.
But I have to wait until 2010, and the reason why it was released late was also to win the award.
So listening to Heidi Martin's powerful answer, Wang Meng said: "I believe you, you have the final say in the future release of the video. As for the production, I need to know about it."
"Of course, we believe in your vision, just like "Never Back" and "The Moon Adventure" we postponed, after all, your "The Matrix" is about to be finished. Next we will promote your "The Matrix". In terms of production, in addition to "The Bomb Demolition Force" and "Twilight" and "Dance of My Life 2", Pinfeng Entertainment does not intend to expand this year. As long as these three movies are successful, we will have the confidence to deal with next year's plans."
"Your vision is very good. I believe that next year's summit will be a glorious year." Wang Meng said.
After hearing Heidi Martin's words, Wang Meng was relieved. I have to say that this woman, including ceo Robert, and Danny, the distribution department, has a strong vision.
They took a fancy to three famous movies in the future.
Sometimes Wang Meng feels that the peak before is really unlucky, and he rises up as soon as he leaves.
I wonder if the previous top boss would be sad after seeing his rise in his hands.
After the opening remark like venting, the movie begins.
However, many reporters seem to hear dissatisfaction from Catherine? It is not difficult to imagine a good news appears.
I believe there will be a report tomorrow - "Catherine is dissatisfied with the constraints of the peak and has parted ways with the peak entertainment." "The results have not been shown, and the failure has come true, and the future of "Twilight" is bleak." "The joke works of several women are still a joke now"...
Coupled with Wang Meng's previous verbal slap, the reporter felt that it was not in vain.
After the movie began, Wang Meng nodded frequently, which was more exciting compared to the original version.
Not to mention the plot, at least the production is more sophisticated.
After all, I am willing to spend money. The original version is difficult to shoot, so it is not easy to complete.
This makes Wang Meng feel relieved. The first original version of the world is 3.5 billion US dollars, and this time it costs 400 million US dollars. I'm sorry for my own money.
After the movie ended, a brief interview was conducted.
Film critics already have some understanding of "Twilight" and it seems that they are not as bad as they think.
As for the connotation, no.
But? It seems that it can make money from book fans, and with handsome men and beautiful women, it seems that it can make young people enter the cinema.
Similarly, these guys generally understand why Catherine is dissatisfied? Obviously, the style of this movie is not Katherine's style.
This kind of idol magic theme is not Katherine's specialty.
In comparison, it is precisely because of the different styles that Catherine and Tsubasa parted ways.
Anyway, neither the reporter nor the film critics have a good impression of "Twilight".
If Wang Meng knew about this, he would not be worried.
The original version was like this, and the box office was rising all the way amid the cries of cursing, which made many critics feel frustrated.
Damn, we scolded like this? The box office is still so high, how can we bear the love! How can we bear the love!!
Many people even think—“Why don’t you change your knees and lick them?”
But it was rejected, there was no other reason? Conscience! Conscience!!
Of course, they will sigh for a long time in the future: Women! Women! Crazy women!
