Chen Kexin , who attended Busan International Film Festival on October 10, was in high spirits and was asked in an interview if he had any plans for a new film. Chen Kexin said that the next film will start in 2023, and the object of cooperation is the international actress Zhang Ziyi . And the cooperative film is "The Case of Killing a Husband in the Sauce Garden" adapted from a real event that Chen Kexin has been thinking about for many years.
Actually, it is not surprising that Chen Kexin and Zhang Ziyi cooperated. After all, good directors hope to cooperate with good actors. The most shocking thing is that Chen Kexin organized a pan-Asian film and television company. The new career of
is what Chen Kexin has always wanted to do. Since 2019, Chen Kexin has not released a new film. For such a director who loves the film career and races against time, he is very impatient and tormented.
also has a work that has been delayed for release, which made Chen Kexin feel a very heavy frustration.
However, Chen Kexin is looking for a breakthrough, and he has to admit that in recent years, due to the lack of too many restrictions on the scale in South Korea, coupled with the blessing of Internet Flying, some excellent works have come out enthusiastically.
also let these excellent works go abroad and won many awards, so that more people like such works. Chen Kexin took a fancy to this point, so he jumped out of the limitations of inherent thinking and established this company. His works did not go to the theater, but sold to streaming media at high prices.
We usually see that the " streaming media " in the text usually refers to "video products", that is, platforms such as "a strange art" and "a cool".
In a talk show "Director · Door", Chen Kexin talked about two issues that he is very concerned about. One is meta-movie, that is, uses the film itself as the object of expression to build a self-conscious and self-reflection. the world of cinema, such as "play within a play".
Another movie about the relationship between husband and wife is "The Case of Killing a Husband in the Sauce Garden" adapted from a true event. Changin' Pictures, the new production company established by Chen Kexin, has confirmed that it will produce five Asian countries, namely Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand, and Japan. It is also aimed at Asian users, but the content will be placed on overseas platforms.
In addition to Zhang Ziyi's "Sauce Garden Killing Husband Case", Donnie Yen has also confirmed to join the Kung Fu action drama "Absolute Loser, Hidden Master". In addition, Chen Kexin also signed a contract with the director who is good at the horror film " psychic medium " and the director who is good at the light comedy "Genius Gunner". The new company
will also sign contracts with outstanding talents from various countries, and arrange their respective topics that they are good at, and then sell them after the production is completed.
Zhang Ziyi's "The Case of Killing a Husband in the Sauce Garden" is the company's first priority. It is also the project that Chen Kexin has announced as early as 2018 that he wants to shoot. Unfortunately, for various reasons it was not possible.
As for the Korean side, since Chen Kexin announced at the Busan Film Festival, his team will definitely work hard on the Korean side. It is said that the script has been prepared. Obviously, Chen Kexin is currently in the casting stage. At the Busan Film Festival, the " Jeon Doyeon , Song Kanghao and other actors" mentioned by Chen Kexin are all very promising actors. After
joined " Squid Game " from famous actor Lee Jung-jae on Chungmu Road, and won a number of world-class video emperors with the play, Korean actors who originally only focused on the development of the film career are also just around the corner. Of course, with the invitation of a well-known film director like Chen Kexin, the quality of online dramas produced with the quality of the film must have a very high guarantee.
Chen Kexin mentioned one is "audit scale" and the other is "thinking change". I believe these new elements allow him to see the future changes in the film and television industry. The Hong Kong film industry has become a sunset industry. Although countless people of insight are still making various efforts for this, just like this time, " Tomorrow's War ", which Gu Tianle invested in and starred in, is really hard work and hard work. support.
Jumping out of the inherent form may be able to find a better development space, after all, "there is another village in the dark and bright". And Neiyu looked at the flowers, but the cold box office of the National Day film also gave a wake-up call to the mainland film circle. It may not be impossible to find new directions and ideas.
sometimes rest on its laurels and often stagnate, jumping out of the original comfort zone and seeking new development, often seeing a wider sky.
