The Best Director

Chapter 225 It will create a new record!

Yeah, there was a poster saying 'Losers play slots, big winners play blackjack.' Because if you're trying to win money in a casino, playing slot machines will always fail.

In the elegant interview room of Entertainment Weekly, Wang Yang and Wu Yanzu are both dressed in suit jackets and denim kù. They are sitting on the sofa and accepting this promotional interview. The interviewer Chris Rich smiles while writing. Nodding his head, he heard Wang Yang on the opposite side continue to say: The production of this movie has taught me a lot about gambling. It may be troublesome for me to say this, and Las Vegas will not let me go.

Chris Rich suddenly laughed, looked at the serious and frowning director, and said with a smile: I heard that the casinos in Vegas are very civilized. Wu Yanzu also laughed, and said with a smile: I know a little bit, Yang , nothing will happen. Wang Yang spread his hands angrily and said, You misunderstood me, I mean being blacklisted by Las Vegas.

Actually, I don't need to say it. Everyone knows that it is very difficult, almost impossible, to get a slot machine to spit out money. There is only a slight chance of a single game, but everyone feels that they are the lucky ones. There is always a 'try it once' 'for a fluke mentality, or to look for a stimulus... Wang Yang paused, then laughed again: But blackjack is different. Under the right card situation, it can be skillful, and card counting can make it out of Instead of pure gambling, players have a chance to succeed.

Chris Rich hummed while writing, and then asked: What made you choose to shoot such a story? Do you want to say something through it?

I definitely have something to say, but it doesn't necessarily have to be a traditional routine. Maybe everyone will have a different feeling after watching it. The royal family will kill the gods at night to kill the gods and seal the throne, begging the devil, proud of the world, the strongest abandoned young man in the nine heavens The throne seeks the devil, the world is proud of the nine heavens, the strongest abandoned young man of the Great Zhou royal family. Wang Yang recalled the trip to Las Vegas at the beginning of last year, couldn't help but smiled, and said: And you know that last year Tom Welling got married , we gave him a bachelor party in Vegas, and then I played blackjack at the casino that night and won a lot.”

He couldn't help laughing when he thought about it, and smiled at the interested Chris: I was drunk at the time, and I thought I was counting cards, because I watched Ben Mozrich's The Fall of Las Vegas Vegas; but it's not, I win money because I'm lucky, don't learn from me, if you don't know how to count cards and don't have a professional team, there is no difference between blackjack and slot machines.

So in the movie, everyone will see and know what is going on with blackjack card counting. I promise to be absolutely professional and reliable. Wang Yang laughed, this can be regarded as a promotional selling point, of course talent is still needed in the end Only outstanding people can learn. He went on to recall: After that party,

I just wanted to do two Las Vegas titles, T-Second.

You know it's adapted from a real person. It's legendary, unbelievable, cool...it's very interesting. After using a few complimenting adjectives, Wang Yang nodded and said with a smile: Then looking at that book, I said it was it. , I wanted to shoot it and then I contacted Ben, contacted Jeff Ma, and the whole story and details slowly built up. Jeff He turned to look at Wu Yanzu and said, Jeff is unbelievable. He's like A living calculator.

Wu Yanzu nodded, thinking about some things on the set, and said with a smile: Jeff has a nickname called 'Intel Chip'. During filming, he taught me how to count cards. I was shocked. He Zhang With a surprised expression on his mouth, he said: I can't keep up with his thinking speed at all, I think he is really cool. It is not easy to show this kind of coolness, Yang will '-d' all day long.

I'm a little surprised. Chris Rich shook her golden head slightly, raised a ballpoint pen to indicate that it was not a question and answer, and said: In school, Asians, especially Chinese, are the best in mathematics. When it came to such a topic of race, she smiled sincerely without malice, and said with a funny tone: Every time I met a new Asian friend at school, I would say, 'You are not allowed to laugh at my math'

Both Wang Yang and Wu Yanzu laughed. Her good conversation skills made them not feel unhappy, and this is a fact. It can be said that Jeff Ma, a Chinese math genius, is very screen convincing. Being good at mathematics is one of the main labels of Asians in this country, as well as being proficient in a musical instrument (violin or piano), knowing Kung Fu, and opening a restaurant at home...

Those labels such as rigidity, lack of personality, and conformity are hated and confused by most Asians. Lin Yibin hates it, Ma Kaiwen hates it, Wu Yanzu hates it...

Wang Yang also hates it very much, and has always hated other people's evaluation of him. He has the blood of Chinese descent in his body, and those values ​​such as hard work and family are what he loves and are born in his bones, which are indelible; but he is by no means a rigid person, so he thinks that sometimes he is impulsive and desperate, just I never wanted to be such a Chinese American with a model robot image.

Rebellion and maturity are the words he wants to say that he didn't focus on in T-21-Team, but reached a little bit.

Actually, I had the opportunity to be a mathematician, but I would have a headache when I saw those numbers and symbols. Wang Yang said with a serious expression, Chris Rich smiled suddenly, Wu Yanzu shrugged and said: I never It’s not material for reading.” Chris-Leech stopped the topic, wrote on the paper with a ballpoint pen again, and asked, “Jan, what do you think of this movie, and what do you expect from it? I Let’s just say tabletop movies are never easy.”

I know. Wang Yang nodded, his face full of confidence. If he hadn't turned into a worm, then this movie would definitely succeed in giving the filmmakers more guarantees, after all, his guarantees have not lost their credibility yet. Thinking of this, Wang Yang didn't have the slightest Chinese modesty, looked into Chris Rich's eyes, and said with a smile: OK, let's make it clear. I believe that T-21-Team will create a new record of genre, it will do

Chris Rich's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but wow. This sentence doubled the value of the entire interview. She was afraid that Wang Yang would not admit it. Jan, we know The Devil Wears Prada just wrapped last month, Rachel is the lead actress in your first film, Jessica is the second, and Natalie and Juno , all three of them will star in your movie this year.

She smiled and asked: Who do you think performed better in your movie? How do you evaluate them?

This question... Wang Yang raised his eyebrows immediately, changed his sitting position and held his chin, looked at the female reporter with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: Can't you answer like this? One is my girlfriend , two good friends, it’s hard for me to make an evaluation that everyone is happy.” Wu Yanzu patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and Chris Rich joked with himself: “That’s good, they are happy, but I am not happy .”

Natalie is a very smart person. Wang Yang smiled lightly, thinking about Natalie's performance and personality on the set, and replied truthfully: She is very smart and unique. Giving her the role will make you feel safe. And Rachel is also very smart, very low-key, humble and kind. She understands how you need the role to think and do, and often has some thoughts that make you feel 'd' ...

A sweet face gradually appeared in front of his eyes, and under the strokes of Chris' ballpoint pen, he continued to smile and said: Jessica is also very smart and hardworking. She is the pistachio on the set. Come pleasant charms, like angels.

Hmm. Chris Rich recorded with a slight nod, and soon asked the next question.

Although Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, which was released on July 11, was not unanimously praised by the film critics, the freshness of well-known film critics on Rotten Tomatoes was only 66, but the 86 audience favorites showed its great popularity. The box office has reached nearly 200 million, and appraisers predict that it will receive more than 500 million global box office without any pressure, and become a new cash cow for Disney. Raiders of the Sky is not so lucky, 17 freshness and 54 likes show how bad it is, and its North American box office forecast is only between 50 and 60 million.

Jedi Men 2 directed by Michael Bay and starring Will Smith was released as scheduled on the 18th, and it immediately attracted criticism from the film critics. 23 freshness, tired, noisy, sick... Washington Post Jon Thompson of The New York Times said: After Happiness Comes Knocking, Will Smith went back to the pathetic old way, without the slightest moving clumsy performance. Half an hour of explosions and silly jokes.

However, the audience likes Bombshell very much, the popularity is so high, and the exciting and exciting voices can be found everywhere. It can be said that Jedi Men 2 has exhausted the visual stimulation of this summer, which also makes it step The box office trend of recovering the cost of 130 million yuan.

On the 25th, Extreme Agent 3, The Age of Pentium and Tomb Raider 2 will be released; on August 1st, in addition to T-21-Team, there will be American Pie 3, the action comedy Mandarin Duck Kidnapper, this is A truly positive new battlefield, with three action comedies, one school R-rated comedy, and one historical sports film participating in the battle; while the genre positioning of T-21-Team is drama/comedy.

The enemy it encountered the most was American Pie 3. This campus film series, together with Sing and Dance Net, was called a revival of high school campuses. From the summer of 1999 to today, three The trilogy was finally coming to an end, and it happened to meet Wang Yang. Many media said that this is a belated hand. The weekly box office champion from August 1st to 7th also has some suspense.

However, the focus of many media and movie fans is not on this head-on battle, not on American Pie 3, Mandarin Duck Kidnapper, Extraordinary Agent 3...etc. Movies, especially the latest issue of After Entertainment Weekly was put on the shelves, they were even more excited to find the topic, so there was an amazing gossip immediately: Magic Young declares war on Steven Spielberg

After T-21-Team first surfaced, it was not favored by the media because of the unflattering real type of Las Vegas + liar + gambling, plus a Chinese actor.

However, The Hangover, which was released shortly after the Christmas schedule, proved that Las Vegas, a desert oasis city, has no worse ability to attract money than Paris, the capital of 1ang romance. Las Vegas theme box office list; the superstar-studded Ocean's Eleven directed by Steven Soderbergh ranked second at 1.8 in North America.

This was a successful pathfinding and attack. The crazy laughter of The Hangover made the audience's confidence in T-21-Team suddenly rise a lot, and this time it was finally the turn of liars and gambling.

Now occupying the top spot on the box office charts for Liar Type is the same true-life adaptation directed by Steven Spielberg featuring Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks , How to Get Away with Murder starring Christopher Walken, the same PG-13 rating, drama/comedy classification, the difference is the production cost of 10,000. And its final box office was 164 million in North America and 352 million worldwide.

Next on the list are Gambler Ma Huali with 183 million worldwide, White Men Can't Jump with 100 million, and The Bowfinger Project with 098 million...

Now Miracle Yang said that he wants to create a new record of the genre. According to the logical thinking of the gossip media, the meaning of this sentence is naturally to say that we must defeat Care to Get Away with Law from the box office record. At the beginning, some gossip media made trouble. The showdown topic of Magic Young will face off with Spielberg in the air, now this confident expectation seems to be responding.

Wang Yang can't wait to challenge Spielberg's status? Isn't he ridiculous? Many netizens expressed their opinions in the comments on this gossip news on the Internet. Several people are optimistic about this breaking record, let's take a look at the cast, the leading actors Daniel Wu and Leonardo DiCaprio, who is Daniel Wu?

Morrison-c left a message: It seems that the Oscars made him complacent and stupid. A trophy will not guarantee a box office of 352 million. I really look forward to seeing him speechless. Amy retorted and replied: Amazing Yang There is no such meaning at all, but these boring media are misinterpreting, and I have seen too much.

Records are made to be broken. Catherine seemed very supportive, she wrote: I like Magic Yang's confidence so much, because we can, so we dare to say this anyway, I have already bought advance tickets, don't you guys Do you want to watch it? Carlisle followed up and wrote: In fact, my circle of friends has been looking forward to this movie for a long time, and this story is very cool when I hear it...

Not only Wang Yang and Wu Yanzu accepted the interview, the other leading actors of T-21-Team, Natalie, Rachel and others also have different popularity depending on the level, and they are doing major newspapers and magazines, some city newspapers, and websites, etc. interview reports.

This is an unforgettable and extraordinary experience, a very rare opportunity. Filming under a young director who is only one year older than you, the feeling is really wonderful and relaxed, as if there is no pressure at all,'Hey Director What? After filming for so long, I have never seen him come to the set.' Our set is full of laughter every day, and Jan and Natalie always have those funny jokes.

In an interview with the Chicago City News, Alexis Bledel answered What is it to you to be in this movie? Alexis said: He is a very hardworking and goal-seeking person, which makes me feel very good. Our relationship is now very stable.

I'm so disappointed, so disappointed. In the spacious and warm living room, Joshua sat on the sofa with a depressed face, holding the remote control and kept pressing, and said, I really didn't expect him to* *he wants to have an extramarital night* How much does it cost to call a girl? How much does it cost to pick up girls in a bar? Do you do it in the worst possible way? Oh god, Kobe is so stupid

What Joshua was angry about was the fact that Kobe Bryant was accused of rape, and many Lakers fans couldn't accept this reality. Wang Yang was surprised when he first learned about it, but he felt it was a pity. He shrugged and said, I will wait for the outcome of this matter before making a judgment. But Joshua, you are welcome to join the Warriors. Joshua said nonchalantly He waved his hand and said, No, I'll still be a Lakers player from now on, but I won't be a Kobe player anymore. Even if it passes, it would be terrible.

He switched a few more channels, and suddenly he laughed and said, Yang, can't you let me watch T-21-Team first? It's too embarrassing. I'm also a production assistant after all. Wang Yang thought Thinking about something, he said with a smile: Not this time, wait until you are the producer to talk about it. Today I called you, buddy, I have a very, very important thing to ask you.

What's the matter? Joshua was very curious immediately, and repeated: Very, very important? Wang Yang hummed, and looked around, even though he knew that Jessica would not come back suddenly after going out for a walk with the dog, but Feeling good, he got up and walked to the back garden: Follow me. Joshua turned off the TV and got up to follow, and asked with a gossiping smile, Yang, I have seen news about you in the past two days. Declaring war on Spielberg, is that true? What's going on?

Wang Yang's mind is not on these gossips at all, and he replied casually: I don't know, life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what the next one is. I don't know what's going on.

While the two were talking, they came to the flower garden and sat down on the chair beside the plane tree. Wang Yang approached Joshua's ear with a mysterious face, and after explaining clearly, he smiled excitedly: How is it? Do you have any suggestions for me? Joshua looked dumbfounded, and said, You, you, you want to...

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, you mustn't say it, don't mention anything about this to anyone. Wang Yang's expression gradually became serious, his eyes glowing murderously, and he said: If any rumors leak out, it will lead to my marriage proposal. Sometimes, if she is not surprised, I will tell Ali that you were married before, and I will tell her that the reason you work so hard is to pick up girls, yes, it is a threat

Oh Yang, you are too cruel... Joshua covered his mouth in panic, and a vague voice came out from between his fingers: You can't do this. Wang Yang urged: Then quickly provide me with Some help. Joshua scratched his head helplessly, unable to figure out what to say: But I don't know what kind of ring she likes? Why don't you just try her out?

Okay, then let me test Ali's attitude towards your marriage? Wang Yang also smiled, and suddenly said seriously: Hurry up and think about whether she has mentioned before that she likes diamonds? Silver? How big would it be if there were diamonds...

Joshua frowned and thought, her collection of bridal magazines is as large as a garage, who knows
