The Director of Music Department

Wang Yifan didn’t care too much about the casting of "The Ring of Midnight" on the contrary, because this film, to put it bluntly, the actors are really not the point. Of course, also because of Wang Yifan’s movies, whether it’s Dongying or Huaxin, the new star I dare not really get an incompetent actor to fool Wang Yifan.

Therefore, it is natural to strive for perfection. Anyway, Wang Yifan's movies are certainly not bad for money.

Even if it is a small cost, it depends on who it is compared to. Wang Yifan’s movie is said to be a small cost, but the final cost of "Midnight Ring" plus the cost of publicity, less than 100 million!

It’s not that I don’t want to add more, but because "The Ring of Midnight" is a horror movie after all, and the market is limited. Another one, if there are more, it’s completely unnecessary, because the biggest part of this film is actually the director Wang Yifan’s pay. It's the pay of the star actors. Others, with today's special effects technology, really don't cost much.

Because there is actually only one special effects screen, Sadako crawled out of the TV screen.

However, Wang Yifan is actually a little worried, not that the movie is not scary enough, but that it is too scary.

Especially now it’s the 3D era. Imagine the scene when Sadako climbed out of the screen in "Midnight Ring" in the 2D era in the past life. It also scared many people. It is said that some people were scared to death on the spot. !

This is true, not just talking nonsense.

Perhaps the person who was scared to death was indeed because of his own health, but this is a real fact.

And now, to show that scene with 3D images, Wang Yifan is really worried that it will scare people to death.

Moreover, it is said that there are not only one person who was scared to death in the previous life, but three. Many people were scared to death after watching the movie. Of course, there may be exaggeration, but it also proves that this movie, It's really scary!

"The most horrible things often don't need you to see, but guide you to think." This sentence can explain Sadako's horror point. Because Sadako's image is not only horrible in appearance, but also because of her horrible psychology. With the 7-day death time limit, passing the videotape to others can avoid death. Such a setting makes people panic in their hearts. It is not unreasonable that this movie became the world's first scary ghost film. Although it is not so scary now, it was indeed super scary at the time.

In this regard, Wang Yifan is still a little worried!

Only after communicating with Toei's Tsukamoto Oshima, Tsukamoto Oshima's reaction was to make Wang Yifan a little shocked by the capitalists' cruelty.

Tsukamoto Oshima's first reaction was whether Wang Yifan was exaggerating, and then the second reaction was, if it is really so scary, what about scaring people to death?

As long as the movie can be successful, he really doesn't mind!

"Don't you worry about causing public anger?" Wang Yifan asked, frowning.

"Director Wang, you worry too much. The movie scares people to death. Unless it is someone who is sick, how can it really scare people to death?" Tsukamoto Oshima obviously still didn't believe it.

"However, this is a very good publicity stunt. We can then set up a warning sign at the entrance of the theater to warn people with heart problems not to enter, and warn the faint-hearted not to enter. I think it is completely OK." Ben Oshima said with a smile.

Wang Yifan sighed. In fact, this is also a question of choice.

The essence of "Midnight Ring" is scary. If the classic horror scene is missing, the film will definitely lose its color. No, it should be said that without the classic scene, this movie will not be enough. In the previous life, it was promoted as the first ghost film in Asia!

But if that scene is really filmed, then Wang Yifan is really worried that it will scare people to death!

"Director Wang, in fact, you don't have to worry at all. There are many people in our island country who love horror movies. This kind of movie will also attract fans in this area. Their ability to bear it is still very strong! I was scared to death by the movie, I think it is Isn't it an exaggeration?" Tsukamoto Oshima saw Wang Yifan still frowning, and he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

"Well, then wait until I shoot that scene and try it out!" Wang Yifan also knows that it is really hard to believe that a movie can be so powerful.

In fact, whether it’s an island country or a stick country, I have made a lot of banned movies. These banned movies are not because of S love, but because the screen is too bloody, or disgusting, or It's too evil, the three views are not right, and so on.

But for the time being, there are really none that have been banned for scaring people to death.

So it’s no wonder Tsukamoto Oshima doesn’t believe that Wang Yifan’s movies are really so scary.

And this also has a certain relationship with the famously heavy tastes of the island people. After all, many horror films on the island country are really large in scale, and they have not been banned.

Besides, Tsukamoto Oshima was afraid that it would really scare people to death as Wang Yifan said.

Because Toei initially participated in the investment of this movie, it didn't think about making money from this movie, but hoped to introduce Asia's first director Wang Yifan!

So, even if it is eventually banned, to be honest, this is not a bad thing.

But what Wang Yifan lamented is that although the island country’s movies have developed a bit of a weirdness, capitalists and businessmen like Tsukamoto Oshima still have a keen eye.

He immediately proposed to Wang Yifan whether they could put the content of their conversations on the price press conference for publicity preheating?

Wang Yifan doesn’t matter. It’s okay to warm up the propaganda. Although there are many people who are very clever, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, he dare to say that if they really do such propaganda, they will not scare them. Movie fans will be more curious about this movie.

What kind of horror movie, dare to say that it can scare people to death?

As for the casting of actors, Toei quickly screened out well-known star actors from three island countries for Wang Yifan to choose.

At the beginning of "Midnight Ring", because the background was set in the island country, and the place where the story took place was also the island country. Therefore, on the Toei side, Tsukamoto Oshima has always hoped that all actors from the island country can perform, but Wang Yifan also Well, Huaxin, CJ Entertainment, etc., will certainly not agree.

In the end, the three main roles were divided into three countries.

The heroine, finally selected the famous actor from the island country, Tomoko Nagashima!

The main reason is that the heroine of "Midnight Ring" is the mother of a child, and Tomoko Nagashima has always played Yujie Fan, so in this respect it is relatively in line with the role of the positioning.

On the domestic side, the chosen actor is Qin Hao! He will star in the high third Ryuji.

It can be regarded as Xingmeng's own family.

CJ Entertainment chose the role of the son, the young actor Park Myung Sun.
