Chapter 340 Director Zhou is the only one in the first place, Zhang Chenfeng is the second one, Dire

"Has he started to slowly make his way into Hollywood?"

Not to mention ordinary people in the circle, even top directors like Feng Xiaogang were silenced.

The gap between him and Zhou Qing is getting bigger and bigger!

Even the two sides are no longer on the same level.

Feng Xiaogang has admitted in the past that he is indeed not as good as Zhou Qing, and his statistics in all aspects are far worse than Zhou Qing.

But no matter what, Feng Xiaogang is also regarded as one of the top directors in mainland China, along with Zhou Qing.

Although he is ranked at the very end, he is indeed in the same sequence as Zhou Qing.

Looking at the top sequence in the entire Chinese entertainment industry.

No one else can shake the status of Zhou, Zhang, Chen and Feng.

Although Feng Xiaogang himself is reluctant to admit it, this is currently his last consolation.

But now?
Out of nowhere, Zhou Qing is about to break out of Chinese entertainment and head for Hollywood.

Directly broke into another higher track!

The strategy adopted also impressed Feng Xiaogang.

He first collaborated with top international directors such as Luc Besson and Nolan to make a name for himself in Hollywood and even internationally.

Facts have also proved that the effect of doing so is indeed immediate.

The global hit "Lucy" has made Zhou Qing a little famous in Hollywood.

If Nolan's "Interstellar" sells well again, the influence of the word "Zhou Qing" will definitely reach a higher level.

So under such circumstances, wouldn’t it be natural to take the opportunity to launch his own "Life of Pi"?

With the foundation laid earlier, plus Zhou Qing's strength, the performance of "Life of Pi" will not be too bad, right?

By then, Zhou Qing might actually become a hit in Hollywood.

If this kind of thing really happens, the landscape of Chinese entertainment directors will definitely be rewritten.

By then, the first-tier directors will no longer be Zhou, Zhang, Chen or Feng, but only one Zhou.

Zhang, Chen and Feng, the three of them, will be completely suppressed by Zhou Qing and become the second in line!

After all, Zhou Qing and the "Hollywood director" Wu Yusen are completely different.

Although Wu Yusen has made films that have been big hits in North America and around the world, it is ultimately just a one-legged sword.

Like Feng Xiaogang, he has no awards to show off.

The level and rank are limited and are destined to never improve.

But what about Zhou Qing?

The award is highly recommended.

Not counting those domestic awards, the awards won from the three major organizations alone are enough to dazzle people's eyes.

Under this premise, if there is another work that sells well in North America or even globally, it would be truly amazing.

It is no exaggeration to say that he was deified.

Feng Xiaogang understands this principle, and his other fellow directors and colleagues in the industry also understand it.

So whether it is "Interstellar" or "Life of Pi", they are the projects that everyone is paying most attention to at the moment.

These two films are extremely important to Zhou Qing’s “Road to Deification”.

"You never imagined that I'm the heroine of Interstellar!"

As for Liu Yifei, she was extremely proud and she wanted to tell the whole world the news immediately.

The girl really didn’t expect that the “surprise” Zhou Qing mentioned would actually be such a shocking bomb.

The girl was so shocked that she was dizzy and it took her several days to recover.

Even now, Liu Yifei still feels that it's not real.

She actually won the leading role in Hollywood's top blockbuster!

Reach the sky in one step.

It’s truly a one-step success!

After all, this is Hollywood's resource!
Looking at all the female stars in the circle, one by one, is there anyone who can get Hollywood resources?

Why does International Zhang have such a high status and why is he called "International Zhang".

Isn’t it because he starred in Hollywood blockbusters that he achieved “godhood” in one fell swoop?

There is also Li Bingbing, who was praised to the sky just for playing an important supporting role in "Resident Evil 5" last year.

His net worth and status began to skyrocket.

Of course we can't forget Gong Huang, who is a cheater who even refused movies of the level of "007".

You know, being a "Bond Girl" is something that many Hollywood celebrities would love to have.

And what about other people besides these top experts?

I counted on my fingers and there was really no one else.

Not to mention being the protagonist or even an important supporting role in a Hollywood blockbuster, you can't even play a minor role.

But now Zhou Qing directly arranged for Liu Yifei to play the leading role in the blockbuster directed by Nolan!
This is nothing short of a king-bomb level.

Even big names like Gong Huang and Zhang Ziyi can't participate.

I can only say that Zhou Qing is awesome.

It’s so awesome.

God bless you, the moment Liu Yifei heard the news, she almost fainted from happiness.

The only unpleasant thing is that this news cannot be announced yet.

After all, Nolan is the director, and it is up to him to decide when the cast will be announced.

Nolan is currently carrying out other preparatory work and has not even entered the casting process.

Liu Yifei, the designated female lead, can only remain confidential for the time being.

But Liu Yifei was really upset.

There is nothing more painful than this in the world. There is a terrifying thing right in front of you, but you can only endure it and not pretend.

The girl felt like she was going crazy.

As for Zhou Qing?

Naturally, he doesn't have the time to deal with these messy things. There are a lot of things he needs to deal with in "Life of Pi".

"Director Zhou, this is the head of R&H, Mr. Smith."

"Mr. Smith, this is..."

"I know Director Zhou, an internationally renowned director. In fact, I have admired Director Zhou for a long time."

"Mr. Smith, thank you for your compliment..."

After being busy in Beijing for another half a month, Zhou Qing went to Hollywood.

I had a meeting with the special effects team R&H and had in-depth and detailed communication.

"Director Zhou, your request is not low. Frankly speaking, there are not many teams in Hollywood that can do this."

After hearing this, Smith's expression subconsciously became solemn.

This is not an easy job.

"So, I found you, R&H."

Zhou Qing praised Smith calmly.

Smith subconsciously showed a confident smile on his face and subconsciously straightened his back.

Smith definitely has the capital to be confident.

You should know that R&H is indeed the top special effects company in Hollywood. It was established in 87 and has a profound foundation. It has won the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects many times.

Their resumes are also very impressive, and they have appeared in many top blockbusters. So although Zhou Qing's requirements are high, Smith is confident that he can do it.

"Don't worry, Director Zhou. You will be glad you made this decision."

Smith smiled and continued to communicate with Zhou Qing about the follow-up.

By the time Zhou Qing left a week later, most of the things that needed to be communicated had been communicated.

R&H will cooperate with Zhou Qing's needs and make corresponding preparations for the special effects in "Life of Pi" in advance.

This includes finding real Bengal tigers to conduct corresponding research and analysis.

Zhou Qing doesn't need to take care of these matters personally, just leave them all to Director Yang.

"Director Zhou, this is the design drawing of the fully automatic wave device."

I had just returned to the capital and hadn't even had time to catch my breath when Han Sanping brought me important news.

Zhou Qing did not dare to delay and immediately met up with Han Sanping and communicated with the design team in person.

There is no problem with the overall direction, but there are still some details that need to be adjusted.

Fortunately, these are not big problems, and we are very optimistic about officially entering the processing and manufacturing stage next month.

The other thing is the matter in India.

Zhou Qing had already sent the corresponding team to scout ahead.

The casting process with the assistant director went quite smoothly. After all, all the main actors, Zhou Qing, had been designated one by one, so we just had to follow the instructions.

Zhou Qing believes that the assistant director can handle the other minor supporting roles and extras that have little presence.

No need to worry too much about it.

The main thing is that location scouting is a bit troublesome and time-consuming, and there hasn’t been much progress so far.

Zhou Qing didn't have any good solution for this, he could only take it step by step.

He had originally planned to go to India in early May, but now it seems that the trip will have to be postponed.

"I regret it so much! I really regret it so much!"

In early May, the filming of "FireWire Brothers" was completed, and Huang Bo returned to Zhou Qing Pictures with a frustrated look on his face.

He beat his chest and stamped his feet in front of Zhou Qing for a long time, as if he had missed out on a hundred million.

In fact, in Huang Bo's eyes, he really missed out on 100 million.

That’s a Sino-US co-production directed by Qingzi herself!

Just because I was away, that guy Zhu Yawen took advantage of me.

If it was a fair competition, Huang Bo would be convinced, but this time, Zhu Yawen won easily.

"I'm telling you, Old Zhu, you're just lucky, otherwise you wouldn't have gotten this role."

Huang Bo was also spitting in front of Zhu Yawen, accusing himself of dissatisfaction and resentment.

"Come on, look at yourself in the mirror."

Zhu Yawen curled his lips, not wanting to bother with Huang Bo. "I told you that you're a novelist, do you believe it?"

"Believe it, why don't you believe it?"

Huang Bo stroked his hair in a serious manner, "How artistic am I?"

"You're so embarrassed. Ask Xixi and Liying if you look like an artist."

Zhu Yawen attacked Huang Bo mercilessly.

"Brother Bo, I heard that you used to be in a band?"

Zhao Liying, who also finished filming "Legend of Lu Zhen", looked at Huang Bo curiously, with curiosity and gossip in her eyes.

"What do you mean by mixed band? I'm a serious singer!"

Huang Bo deliberately puffed out his chest and started bragging in front of Zhao Liying.

Zhu Yawen rolled his eyes when he heard this.

Just pretend.

"By the way, Liying, when will the filming of your film The Four 2 start?"

After chatting for a while, Zhu Yawen straightened his face and started talking about business.

Zhao Liying has been very busy recently. The filming of "Legend of Lu Zhen" has just been completed, and "The Four 2" has already been approved.

This is the sequel to "The Four", and the story is not over yet, so it must be the original crew.

These resources can be said to be endless, without even time to catch your breath.

We can’t forget the previous one, “Painted Skin”.

It's just like a relay race without any interruptions.

If other female celebrities in the circle knew about this, they would definitely cry with envy.

"It's too early. The Four 2 project has just been approved, but I have the script."

Zhao Liying happily shared all of this with everyone.

At the same time, Zhao Liying subconsciously glanced at Zhou Qing's locked office door, and a myriad of emotions surged in her heart.

All of this is thanks to Director Zhou!
To be frank, it was Director Zhou who changed her destiny.

But Director Zhou is too busy these days. She has hardly seen Director Zhou in the company since she came back from the wrap-up.

She knew that Zhou Qing was busy with the preparations for "Life of Pi", but she didn't expect him to be so busy.

"Don't look at him. He must be with Director Han now."

Liu Yifei glanced at Zhao Liying and said casually in front of Zhao Liying.

Given the relationship between her and Zhou Qing, the girl knows Zhou Qing's movements best.

She knew that Zhou Qing had been busy with the fully automatic wave device recently, which was the most important "prop" in the filming of "Life of Pi".

"The filming of "Unforgiven 2" directed by Wu Jing and starring Wang Baoqiang has started."

"Filming of Unforgiven 2 has started, Wu Jing confidently said the sequel does not belong to the first part at all."

"Ip Man 3, directed by Yip Wai-hsin, has wrapped up filming. Zhao Wenzhuo and Tyson praised each other for their skills."

"Ip Man 3 was successfully completed, and the two great kung fu masters Zhao Wenzhuo and Zhang Jin admired each other."

"The science fiction film Lucy, written by Zhou Qing and directed by Luc Besson, is about to be released."

"The North American hit movie "Lucy" is coming, and the Hollywood version of "Witch" will meet you in June."

The circle was also very lively in May, and there were many explosive news related to Zhou Qing.

Needless to say, the start of filming of "No Mercy 2" and the completion of "Ip Man 3" have attracted great attention in the industry.

After all, these two films are masterpieces released by Zhou Qing Pictures, and they are both super blockbuster reservations with no objection in the industry.

have nothing to say.

An imported film like "Lucy" has also gained extremely high popularity and attention, no doubt because the screenwriter is Zhou Qing.

Everyone wants to know what this global hit movie directed and written by Zhou Qing is like.

But since it was written by Director Zhou and it sold so well all over the world, the quality must be good.

Director Zhou’s films never disappoint me!

As an imported blockbuster from Hollywood, the momentum of "Lucy" surpassed that of "Men in Black 3" which was released at the same time in all aspects.

"not bad."

Zhou Qing was very satisfied with this.

You have to know that although "Lucy" had good box office in mainland China in the original time and space, it was only 2.78 million yuan.

All less than 3 million.

So what now?
Zhou Qing felt that there would be no problem in exceeding this number, but he didn't know how much it could exceed in the end.

But judging from the popularity and discussion in the early stage, Zhou Qing felt that 400 to 500 million was something to look forward to. (End of this chapter)
