Now I want to be a good person
Chapter 557
Liang Kun made several phone calls, mainly to say sorry to Zhang Guorong that he would not attend the premiere of manslaughter.
Zhang Guorong was not angry. I wish Liang Kun every success in his work in the United States. He has never filmed in Hollywood and admires Liang Kun''s achievements.
His parents and sister were used to Liang Kun''s frequent going abroad. They had no opinion, but asked him to pay attention to safety outside. He booked a first-class ticket and chose to fly from Yanjing to New York in the evening.
He really doesn''t have an important job in China, either in entertainment or sports. He doesn''t have to ask for leave in the shooting team and track and field team. He can arrange whether to train him at ordinary times. Everyone knows that he has won the Olympic Qualification and is gifted.
The domestic media didn''t have time to interview Liang Kun. It''s a pity to know that he went to the United States. Many reporters want him to talk about his feelings about winning the nomination for the Golden Globe Award. They think it can make big news.
Liang Kun is not going to be interviewed. Whether he can win the Golden Globe award or not is boring. When the award is over, he can say a few thoughts when he returns to China.
A reporter will certainly ask him to predict whether he can win the prize. Nothing he says is appropriate.
If he predicted that he would win the prize, he would be beaten in the face if he ran with him.
He was very happy and inappropriate. Once the Oscar judges saw that he was so satisfied with the golden ball nomination, they might not give him the Oscar nomination.
If he behaves as if it doesn''t matter if he gets the Golden Globe nomination, the award is of little significance and will offend people.
No actor in China has ever won such a nomination. He puts on an air of lightness, and everyone will think he is "too pretending". The audience won''t think he''s cool. For most people, the Golden Globe nomination is a great honor.
Therefore, Liang Kun thinks the best way to deal with it is to say nothing and go abroad. Compared with the nomination of the Golden Globe Award, he is more concerned about whether he can win the Oscar nomination. He is satisfied with the nomination without winning the award.
A reporter went to Yingyi entertainment company to interview and ask about Liang Kun. Constantine revealed that he went to America to work, about the film dark knight.
With only such a little information about Liang Kun, reporters will have news to write. Netizens also had topics to discuss that day.
"There is no news about the make-up of the dark knight in the United States. It is said that the actor will not have any work for the time being. I think brother Kun is ready to receive the Golden Globe Award, but can he win the big guys in Hollywood? The competition between best actor and best film is very fierce. They are all famous names. I think he won the screenwriter award at most."
"Brother Kun must have gone to play with Nolan. They had a very good relationship. Before shooting, Nolan insisted on choosing him as a clown and beat all the opinions. I guess they were discussing how to edit the film. Nolan spoke highly of the editing of the lost lover."
"Maybe he went to the United States to discuss the next film. Brother Kun said he had no plans to shoot for the time being, but he didn''t say he wouldn''t play. He is not only a director, but also a good actor with broken acting skills. It''s not surprising that someone in the United States asked him to make a new film. As long as he is a Chinese character, he should be able to play. Being an actor in Hollywood is much better than Chow Yun fat."
"Maybe brother Kun is going to negotiate a contract with Warner. As long as the clown doesn''t die, brother Kun may often play in superhero movies in the future."
The prediction of netizens is possible. After the parallel world clown, he changed actors because Heath Ledger died. Liang Kun will certainly not die, and his acting skills will be widely recognized after the film is released.
After receiving Nolan''s call, Liang Kun decided to cooperate with Warner and strive to become Warner''s "two heroes" and the backbone of DC film together with Nolan.
There are two main reasons why he chose DC. After analyzing the current situation of Hollywood, he believes that this is the best choice at present.
First of all, he can''t catch up with the marvel film. The director of iron man has long decided to be Harpy, the driver of iron man. The first film has been made and will be released in North America on May 2, 2008. Unless Liang Kun goes to Hollywood to develop before graduating from university and rises up a year or two ahead of time, he can''t operate marvel at all and can''t get involved.
The director of Iron Man 2 is still harpy. As long as the box office of the first episode is high enough, the filmmakers have no reason to replace him.
Liang Kun''s participation in Marvel is not impossible, but he has no future. Can''t he volunteer to be the director of Captain America and Thor? These two popcorn films, which are generally box office, pave the way for the Avengers. After watching the film, who will remember who is the director of these two films?
Even if Liang Kun first went online with Disney, was responsible for making Marvel films and directing the Avengers, he was not very brilliant. The director will have to wait for the later stage. Ten years later, whether Marvel will use Liang Kun or not is a problem.
Marvel has always been making popcorn commercial films with a fixed style. The only impressive director is the Russell brothers. Their action plays are very classic.
Russell brothers joined Marvel a long time later, which is not in line with Liang Kun''s development ideas. He can''t wait that long.
He wants to get the chance to make a big film as soon as possible. The shortcut is to cooperate with Warner to replace Zach Schneider in making the man of steel. He knew that he had to make man of steel in order to give the DC film universe a good start.
After arriving in New York, Liang Kun lived in a luxury apartment arranged for him by Warner company.
Warner knew that Nolan had asked Liang Kun for assistance in editing the film, which was a test for him. A good director is comprehensive and can''t just finish the film.
The next day, Liang Kun had lunch with Nolan and Charles Rowan and talked about the possibility of cooperation.
Luo Wen first introduced Warner to Liang Kun. "There are two plans under discussion. One is to make a Green Lantern film and the other is to restart Superman film. You are the key object of investigation now, but you haven''t directed an action film is a big disadvantage. Some people think it''s risky to ask you to make a superhero film."
"Before this movie starts, I can probably make an action movie to prove myself. You all know that I learn things very fast. Science fiction movies are not a problem. As long as the investment is high enough, I can definitely shoot the big scene." Liang Kun said confidently.
"I believe you," Rowan said with a smile.
Nolan also believes that Liang Kun''s arrangements in action drama are much better than his ideas. After the two discussed, he made many changes. Batman looks much stronger than the mystery of the Xia shadow. He is going to find an action guide for the sequel in the future. Otherwise, without Liang Kun, he is not confident to make a good action play, and there will be a gap with the second one.
Liang Kun asked knowingly, "who is my main competitor in making superhero blockbusters for Warner?"
"Zach Schneider, he''s shooting the catcher for Warner. If his film succeeds at the box office, he may become Warner''s Royal director," Rowan smiled.
Parallel world, "the catcher" started shooting in September this year and finished shooting in February 2008. It was not released until 2009. On the surface, Zach is the number one candidate for Warner blockbusters. In fact, he is not.
Liang Kun is not impatient. He has seen the orange mission released by Rowan, and he has a past life memory and knows that Zach will screw up.
Warner is looking for Liang Kun to film. Luo Wen''s words seem to be that he is just a substitute in order to lower the price.
Warner doesn''t want Liang Kun to direct a super British film for the first time, and the film pay is ridiculously high. From the task, Liang Kun can see that there have been changes within Warner. What to shoot is not up to the people of Superman return. Before, there was news that it was possible to shoot a sequel, but there was no news later.
Luo Wenming did mention the restart of Superman film, and Brandon Ross will no longer be the protagonist.
Liang Kun smiled: "I know about comics and have seen Schneider''s films. I''m ready to cooperate with Warner now, because you won''t choose a director with box office to shoot the first shot in the DC film universe. That''s really risky."
Nolan asked curiously, "don''t you think much of Schneider? His" Spartan 300 warriors "box office is very high. He has made two films for Warner, and his qualifications are better than you."
"He has no more experience than me. In addition, dawn of the living dead has only made three feature films. Moreover, it may not be appropriate for him to shoot superhero films in that style. The ending of the catcher is too dark, and I don''t think it''s suitable for adaptation films. The box office is not high."
Luo Wen smiled, "well, you are so confident. I thought you would be a little disappointed when you heard about competitors."
Nolan shook his head, smiled and asked, "don''t you like the dark style? I''m shooting the dark wind."
"You''re different. You''re making a series of Batman movies. Batman should be dark, which is very in line with the role setting. Zach''s shooting is a big blue man like Dr. Manhattan. He often strolls outside in his underwear, and the setting is immoral."
"..." Nolan smiled, which was very immoral.
Listening to Liang Kun''s words, Nolan also thought the catcher would hit the street. He knew about the cartoon, and there was really a problem with the character setting.
Liang Kun continued: "In the cartoon, Dr. Manhattan has the same ability as God, but the result is that the villains win, and 80% of the audience will be uncomfortable after watching it. This film is difficult to please the audience. In those days, the fire of the cartoon was related to the background of the times, but now the setting of the cartoon is not so attractive. Moreover, it is difficult to grasp the length of the real-life version of the story. If you want to tell the story clearly, it may be necessary to make a film Three hours. "
"The catcher" has been highly praised in both the comic industry and the mainstream media and is regarded as a classic in comic books. However, it was a comic before the disintegration of the Soviet Union. The setting that the cold war was about to escalate into nuclear war looks very touching. When watching this film in 2009, the villain''s motivation seems to be to have enough to support and sacrifice millions of people, which is entirely because of his groundless worries.
Nolan and rowan looked at each other and felt that Liang Kun''s ability was super strong.
Warner talked about this topic at the meeting, but Liang Kun did not attend the meeting. He was not optimistic about the catcher for almost the same reason as everyone''s concerns at the meeting.
