The anti-fraud bureau wants a promotional video, why don't you make All or Nothing?

Chapter 79 Chinese Film Festival invites Song Hao! (Seeking for further reading)

When Zhang Hanyu and Peng Yuyan officially confirmed to join "Operation Mekong".

The starring team is basically established.

For the rest of the supporting roles, such as the roles of other teammates in the action team, Song Hao plans to find familiar actors.

When Wang Chuanjun, Dong Dawei and others learned that Song Hao wanted to invite them to join the crew, they didn't care whether they were protagonists or supporting roles, and directly agreed.

For the rest of the supporting villain roles, he interviewed many actors through Wang Chuanjun's introduction.

As for Zhang Han, since he has already agreed to Song Hao, he will no longer take roles from other directors.

It just so happened that Director Zhang experienced the box office failure of "Lonely City" and the short films he shot in this issue of "Director's Talk" were also not as good as Song Hao's "The Tuner", which also allowed him to speed up the preparation of new movies.

He wanted to make a criminal police movie, and he immediately thought of Zhang Hanyu and wanted him to play the role of a policeman in the film.

In the past, assistants would contact the agents of each actor.

This time, Director Zhang personally contacted Zhang Hanyu.

"Hello, Hanyu." Director Zhang greeted cheerfully on the other end of the phone.

Zhang Hanyu was a little flattered.

He didn't expect Director Zhang to call him, so he quickly responded: "Director Zhang, what's wrong?"

"Have you been busy lately?" Director Zhang did not go directly to the topic, but chatted about household matters.

Zhang Hanyu guessed a little bit when he heard it.

He then smiled and said, "What's the point of being busy? It's just acting and promoting, acting and promoting."

"Have you been filming recently?" Director Zhang circled around: "No wonder I heard them say that it would be really difficult to ask you to film."

"Director Zhang, please don't laugh at me." Zhang Hanyu laughed at himself in embarrassment: "There is no market for an elderly person like me. Today's directors prefer young people."

"Who said that?" Director Zhang laughed: "I just like old actors. What do you think? If you have time recently, come and film a movie with me? Play the leading role of a policeman."

Zhang Han's heart skipped a beat, as expected.

He had no choice but to say: "Director Zhang, I'm afraid the schedule is going to be bumped up. I just agreed to a director to shoot his movie."

"Oh?" Director Zhang's tone did not change, but he could tell that he was obviously a little emotional: "Which director is ahead of me?"

Zhang Hanyu smiled: "It's mostly just a coincidence. You and Director Song Hao are two days apart. If Director Zhang still remembers me next time, I will definitely drive here!"

"Okay, okay, it's settled." Before hanging up the phone, Director Zhang pretended to sigh: "Oh, if you don't come to act, I don't even know who to look for. It's a pity."

After the two hung up the phone, Zhang Hanyu also started thinking about it.

In fact, in terms of popularity, Director Zhang is still the best director in China.

When filming a film directed by him, the lower limit is guaranteed.

But Song Hao's "Operation Mekong" script is so well written. As an old actor who has been filming for so many years, he can tell at a glance that if this movie is released smoothly, the box office will definitely be guaranteed!
After thinking about it, Zhang Hanyu did not regret his decision.

Just shoot "Operation Mekong"!
At the same time, Director Zhang was sitting on a chair, smoking a cigarette.

He was a little excited when he thought about getting a full number of votes after "The Tuner" played that night.

In addition, my favorite actor was cut off again.

After a while, he shouted: "Xiao Liu, come in!"

Assistant Xiao Liu walked in immediately.

"Go, contact Yu Hewei and ask him if he has time. Let me have dinner with him."

"Okay, Director Zhang."

Song Hao's plan to shoot an anti-drug propaganda video has been uploaded on the Internet for several days.

Due to the popularity of the first two movies, everyone is looking forward to Song Hao's work this time.

“I really want to see director Song’s anti-drug themes!”

"I don't know what the content was."

"Just for his two movies, I think the third one should be supported!"

The continued popularity also made Song Hao very satisfied.

After all, as long as there is a topic, "Operation Mekong" will be known to more and more people.

Not long after, the "Operation Mekong River" project was officially launched.

A film shooting and production registration form has been released.

Song Hao also posted it on Weibo immediately.

[Registration project number: Film and drama preparation number [2023] No. 4622

Title: Operation Mekong
Registration unit: Bona Film and Television Culture Co., Ltd. Director: Song Hao

Filing result: Agree to shoot

Summary: It tells the story of an action team trying to unravel the conspiracy behind the death of a Chinese merchant ship crew and uncover the mastermind behind the drug shipment case. 】

As soon as this picture came out.

It immediately aroused everyone's heated discussion.

"Holy shit! Director Song wants to shoot a prototype of a case from more than ten years ago?!"

"How dare he film this?! Can he pass the trial?"

"Brother, the official asked him to take the photo. Do you think it can pass the trial?!"

"Oh my god, you're so brave."

"I remembered, this incident caused a sensation in several countries. At that time, they all shied away from responsibility, and then the Chinese Action Team arrested the criminals!"

"Okay! We should take pictures and show them to everyone!"

For a time, the topic of Song Hao's filming of "Operation Mekong" was directly on the hot search list.

Naturally, it also attracted the attention of people in the industry.

In the WeChat group.

Jiang Wenwu: [Do you dare to take pictures? @小 Gang]

Xiaogang: [I can't shoot this kind of thing, and I don't dare to shoot it. This kind of case that shocks China and the world. If I'm not careful, my career as a director will be ruined. 】

Jia Zhangke: [Director Jiang, maybe you are the only one in our group who dares to shoot, and none of us dare to shoot. 】

Jiang Wenwu: [Huh? ? ?Why are you talking? Director Chen is the one who dares to shoot, and I don’t dare to shoot either. 】

Chen Kai: [You guys, why are you staring at a little kid? 】

This WeChat group can be said to have gathered a group of outstanding directors from China.

Some of them admire Song Hao and dare to break everyone's conventional thinking.

Some think they are playing with fire.

If I'm not careful, my career as a director may be ruined.

But after all, they are just melon-eaters, and no one cares about this.

After a while, they changed the topic to the Chinese Film Festival two days later.

This time, the China Film Festival will select this year’s outstanding works and award them with awards.

It can be said that every director hopes that their work will win awards.

Jiang Wenwu: [Old Jia, you probably won the prize, right? 】

Jia Zhangke: [Are you kidding me? Directors Chen and Zhang, their works were released this year and achieved good results. How can I be qualified? 】

Xiaogang: [I won’t take it this year. Don’t fight with me next year. 】

Jiang Wenwu: [I think the director named Song Hao should win awards for his two films. 】

Xiaogang: [No way. Although he has a high box office, he doesn’t have much artistry? 】

Jia Zhangke: [Brother Gang, don’t mention it, his film "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" was very good. 】

Jiang Wenwu: [Brother Gang, I’m afraid you can’t even take a photo like this. 】

Xiaogang: [I can’t take a picture, but Brother Zhang can. 】

Director Zhang watched their chat and did not reply.

At the same time, Song Hao also received an invitation from the China Film Festival.

Film festival staff: [Director Song, I am a staff member of the Huaxia Film Festival. I sincerely invite you to attend the award ceremony of the Chinese Film Festival in the Imperial Capital.]

Song Hao knew that this was the most important annual film festival in China, and almost all well-known directors would participate.

He didn't expect that he would be invited either.

But it’s normal to think about it. After all, I now have box office results of 9.1 million for one movie and 13 billion for the other.

It has surpassed 95% of directors.

But now I am preparing for the filming of "Operation Mekong".

After thinking about it, Song Hao finally decided to attend.

After all, he still has some remaining tasks to complete.

One of the tasks is to win any award from the film festival!
