This director only makes bad movies

Chapter 302 The 300 Spartans Premiere

Knowing that Xu Nan was coming, Schneider felt confused.

He didn't know that it was Paramount that sent the invitation, so he was very wary of Xu Nan's arrival.

Is this damn Chinese director trying to cause trouble at the premiere?

With doubts and worries, Schneider rushed to Xu Nan's side.

As the host, he really wanted to entertain Xu Nan.

"Director Schneider, look here."

"Director Schneider, what do you think of the film's performance?"

"Are you worried that the audience will see the wrong movie?"

"How is your relationship with Director Xu Nan?"

A group of reporters were even more excited when they saw Schneider coming. This was ready-made material.

Schneider ignored these reporters and squeezed directly to Xu Nan's side, forcing a smile.

"Welcome to support me, Director Xu."

"Director Schneider." Xu Nan's eyes immediately lit up, as if he had seen an idol: "I like your works very much, especially your "Dawn of the Dead". I have watched it several times. The plot in it is so exciting. liked."

Schneider was stunned.

He didn't expect this result.

He thought that Xu Nan was here to cause trouble, but he didn't expect that Xu Nan would praise his movie as soon as he came up. His eyes were so sincere and his expression was so sincere.

He seems to be a good person.

"Dawn of the Dead" was his first movie, which was a box office hit and received good reviews.

Before filming "Dawn of the Dead", he was just an ordinary commercial director, unremarkable. It was with this movie that had a good reputation and a small box office that he officially stepped into the door of film director and became qualified to direct. "The 300 Spartans" is a big production.

The movie "Dawn of the Dead" has extraordinary significance to him. This Chinese director has actually watched it several times?

No, calm down.

This guy must have a conspiracy.

Schneider, who had experienced many hardships, remembered Xu Nan's bad criminal record, quickly calmed down and regained his indifference.

"Thank you for your appreciation of my movie. In fact, I have also watched your movie, and it still has merits."

Xu Nan smiled: "No, my movie is very good."

Schneider's expression was stiff. Are you sure your movie is good?

Fortunately, the reporter next to him interrupted this unpleasant atmosphere.

"Why do the two directors have such a good relationship?"

"So you have been in contact for a long time?"

"What is the real relationship between you two?"

Faced with reporters' questions, Schneider regained his composure: "We didn't know each other before. I heard that Director Xu Nan was coming to attend the premiere, so I came to welcome him."

"Director Schneider, the names of the two movies are so similar. Are you worried that the audience will see the wrong movie? Are you worried that there will be an own incident like the film critic Martin?"

Schneider shook his head: "I believe that the audience is smart and will not watch the wrong movie, especially if they know that the movie has a similar title."

"Director Xu Nan, did you choose a similar name to deliberately mislead the audience and steal the box office that belongs to "300 Spartans"?" A reporter asked maliciously.

Schneider perked up. This was a great question.

In the past, he found the reporters' attempts to make things difficult for him annoying, but now he finds it very pleasant.

Let me see how you answer?

Xu Nan smiled: "I solemnly declare here that the movies I make are all very good and are classics handed down from generation to generation. There is no need to steal the box office of other movies."

"The reason why I chose the name "Three Thousand Spartans" was to give Schneider a chance to use my name to avoid poor grades."

"Well, as a senior, I always take care of the newcomers so enthusiastically. I am really a good person."

There was silence for a moment.

"Pfft." An eavesdropping guest nearby couldn't help laughing.

He can actually say such shameless words. He is truly a shameless Chinese director.

The reporters' expressions were also very subtle, but although this answer was not the best, it was what they wanted, it was exciting enough and eye-catching enough.

Schneider sneered, but said nothing.

This answer is too outrageous, and it makes him look stingy.

In one sentence, if you take it seriously, you will lose.

The reporter then asked a lot of difficult questions in succession. Xu Nan and Schneider answered very skillfully and did not let the reporter find any flaws.

But some news materials are certainly unavoidable.

After dealing with the reporters, Schneider said to Xu Nan succinctly: "I'm sorry, Director Xu Nan, today is the premiere of the movie. I'm very busy. Let's go first."

After saying that, Schneider left in a hurry. He was going to welcome the real heavyweights.

When he came to see Xu Nan before, he was mainly worried that Xu Nan would cause trouble, so he came to see which way the wind was blowing.

But now he thinks clearly, this is a big production produced by Paramount. What can Xu Nan, a Chinese director, do?

At most, it's just here to enjoy the popularity, and it won't affect anything.

Do you really think that the audience is stupid, thinking that this is the premiere of "3000"?

It's a joke, but it's a joke. What's the real situation? The audience knows very well that it's impossible for a movie to be so stupid and admit mistakes.

Soon, the movie officially started to be screened, and Xu Nan, as a guest, watched the movie for free.

"The 300 Spartans" is adapted from real events and is taken from the famous battle between the Spartan Federation and Persia in history, the Battle of Thermopylae.

At the beginning of the movie, the plot tells the story of the Spartan Federation's martial tradition.

Children here will be checked by dedicated personnel as soon as they are born, and those who are healthy will be kept, while those who are disabled or thin will be abandoned without hesitation.

Before the age of seven, children will undergo cruel training every day to hone their will and body. After the age of seven, the children will be expelled and leave their families and Sparta to undergo training in the wild. Those who successfully survive will , to be able to return to the Federation.

This is Sparta, a federation that pursues the law of the jungle, and their warriors are extremely brave.

A warrior named Leonidas became the king of Sparta because of his bravery, but he encountered a problem. The king of Persia intended to conquer Sparta. He sent an envoy to Sparta to ask them to surrender

This movie is worthy of being a big production produced by Paramount. Whether it is the costumes, props, or scenes, they are exquisite and restored, giving people a sense of epicness.

The most exquisite thing is the film's lens and color palette, which are cold iron gray, similar to the texture of comics, and inconsistent with reality, allowing the audience to escape from the film and appreciate the joys and sorrows of the film characters from a God's perspective.

This kind of picture quality and color grading are inseparable from Snyder. He often used this kind of picture quality and color grading in the last movie "Dawn of the Dead", giving the audience a very novel feeling.

In the movie "300", he once again used this comic version style, which produced a wonderful chemical reaction with the content of the movie itself.

Overall, Snyder's style and the content of the film complement each other, successfully raising the quality of the film to a higher level.

Even though Xu Nanming knew the content of the movie, he was still immersed in it while watching it, and his emotions could not help but rise and fall with the content of the movie.

This is what only excellent movies can do, allowing the audience to enjoy emotional value while watching the movie, and "300" actually did it.

Relying on this alone, the performance of the movie "300" cannot be any worse.

Xu Nan smiled, this was exactly what he wanted.

The better the performance of the genuine movie, the easier it is for him to get into trouble.
