You don't understand the happiness of the director

This global version of the Forbes celebrity list quickly spread in China.

Just like in China, the rankings are based on the four dimensions of income, Internet influence, publication influence, and TV influence.

Wang Quan frequently appears on TV shows to promote his movies, and he is handsome and often appears on magazine covers. As some netizens said, his presence adds a lot to the overall image of the Chinese people.

In addition, Wang Quan can indeed be said to be the most profitable director last year, which means that Lao Si has a profound background, and he is slightly inferior.

Therefore, he is the second-highest-ranked director on the list, higher than Cameron, who has not released a film for many years, and one higher than Kawakawa, who is on the list as a host.

However, in the eyes of domestic netizens, this directly turned into, "Director Wang is already the greatest director in Hollywood after Spielberg!" "The speed of rise is unprecedented!" "There are only open and inclusive directors. "The United States can have a stage for kings to display their talents." All kinds of comments came out, and some even used him as a gun.

As a result, Wang Quan made the headlines of several portals, becoming a hot news figure again, and helped the mainland box office of "The Twilight Saga" to exceed the 100 million mark amid controversy.

At this time, as the number of people watching the movie increased, there were also different voices in the unanimous praise of "The Twilight Saga". Finally, someone saw through its nature of a bloody romantic idol drama.

However, there are so many people who are superstitious about kingship and Hollywood, so that Twilight's Douban score is still at a high level of over eight points, but IMDb has dropped below the seven-point mark.

Some movie fans in Europe scolded it even more fiercely. This is a movie made by the number one director of the year selected by "Sight and Sound". What kind of rubbish is it? Bah!

Under this kind of noise, Wang Quan has also become the third mainland director after Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige to have a box office of over 100 million ("The Banquet" failed to exceed 100 million due to the influence of "Escape Room") after the mainland film marketization. Netizens call him one of the top three directors in Mainland China, but he makes films in foreign languages, so I don’t know if he should be included in this list.

The most uncomfortable thing is probably Feng Xiaogang. He was one of the three major mainland directors, but suddenly one day he was replaced by a Hollywood director!

Director Feng firmly disagrees with counting Wang Quan as a mainland director. He is a mainlander, but he is not a mainland director, and it is not certain whether he will be a mainlander in the future.

Director Feng still wanted to fight, but the knees of the two kings of Huayi were weak now. He just wanted Director Wang to be rewarded with a bite to eat after returning to China. This was too strong. At that time, the mainland list said that he had an annual income of 300 million. However, when it comes to this international list, it has turned out to be 80 million U.S. dollars. This is still purely personal income, not counting business income!

Because Wang Quan's performance abroad is too impressive, the "Director Wang, let's stay in the United States" bar friends took this as an opportunity to promote that only Director Wang can achieve such high achievements if he stays in Hollywood. It would be impossible to do it in China.

And "Director Wang, please come back soon" said that being on the Forbes Global Celebrity List is nothing like an achievement. Director Wang has not even won the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Watch, so he should return to China as soon as possible. He can only be ranked 19th there. When he comes back, he will be ranked 19th. No. 1 in minutes, what are the three major directors, let you be the number one director!

Wang Quan paid no attention to these controversies. He just posted a blog post after arriving in Italy, posted several photos of Italy, and announced the two projects of "New Moon" and "Eclipse" in "The Twilight Saga". The department is powered on.

"I'm not Liu Yifei" grabbed the bench and praised: The director is so diligent, great!

Other netizens also expressed their disbelief that the movie had only been released for more than half a month, and they didn't even have time to enjoy the fruits of victory. The filming started now, why don't you work so hard!

The director is so diligent, does he have to solve all his physical problems by himself?

How can it be!

Inside a hotel in Florence, Italy.

Wang Quan and Anna were lying side by side. Wang Quan said, "I'm sorry for being a little rude just now."

Anna, "It's okay, are you worried about something?"

Wang Quan sighed, "I called her once, but she didn't answer."

"ah?"

Wang Quan, "I even went to school to look for her, but her roommate said she had already joined the crew."

"Oh." Anna knew what was going on. It turned out that she and Gadot had a falling out!

Anna suppressed the laughter in her heart and comforted Wang Quan in a low voice, "Although I know that I am not as good as her, I will definitely always be by your side."

Wang Quan was not moved at all, "Don't be stupid. After the "Twilight" series, you will have a certain reputation. By then, if you sign with Lafite, you can be a full-time actor. I will find another assistant."

Anna: Are you pretending to be stupid or are you really stupid? I mean staying with you in another identity!

But Wang Quan did not receive the signal of her release at all, so he put on his pants and refused to recognize anyone, "Okay, pack up, we are going to the filming location."

On the way to the filming location, Wang Quan received an obituary from the United States.

Director Edward Yang passed away.

Wang Quan and this great Bayan director don't know each other, even if they are both in Los Angeles, they have never met.

But I have watched almost all of his movies, such as "Mahjong", "Guling Street Murder" and "Yi Yi". Recently, in order to study movies related to dreams, I pulled out his "Terrorist" to review it. It is really a classic.

This is an internationally recognized film master with numerous honors. His creative techniques have also inspired many younger directors. Jia Zhangke regards him as his idol.

Even though Wang Quan didn't know him, he asked Dorothy to send someone a wreath and elegiac couplet.

Later, Zhang Zhen got Wang Quan's contact information from somewhere and made a special call to express his thanks.

He was introduced to the industry by Edward Yang, and it would not be too much to say that the two of them were like father and son. He came all the way from Wanwan for Yang Dechang's memorial service, and his good friend Hou Hsiao-hsien did not come.

Tuscany is in the middle of Italy, and the shooting location is in the central square of Montepulciano. This is one of the few scenes in the Twilight series that needs to be shot in Europe, mainly in the second part of the second part, and the third part of the series. The small parts of the three parts include outdoor scenes and indoor scenes.

In order to promote the local tourism industry, this place offers the most tax rebates, so we decided to stay here.

Despite the ferocious criticism of "Twilight" by European film critics, as if the royal power has completely degenerated and betrayed the art of film, the number of viewers clearly far exceeds the critics.

Mind you, "Twilight" has dominated the weekly box office for two consecutive weeks since its release. At this time, the box office has exceeded 10 million US dollars. Disney has done a good job.

That's why they were surrounded by fans after getting off the plane in Florence. Even when they arrived at the hotel, fans were waiting outside just to take photos of Twilight Man and Twilight Woman.

It is precisely because of the extremely high popularity of the movie that the local government is willing to provide maximum support.

The original version may not need much support. Except for a few outdoor scenes, it was basically shot indoors. However, Wang Quan has no intention of letting the male and female protagonists save the day by relying on talk. The first part even has a fight scene, which is useless. Why should the audience pay for a big scene? If people think it's not worth it, they will definitely give it a low score.

Therefore, a vampire fight is inevitable, and the scene will not be small. None of these are in the original work. Wang Quan needs to create it himself, and the photo should be beautiful, stylish, and elegant. After all, in the twilight world, no blood is sucked. Vampires have to stay elegant all the time.

The crew will shoot here for at least 20 days, and the special effects team is here. In the movie, not only will the city be demolished, but at least a few buildings will be demolished.

After the movie started shooting, many entertainment reporters from various European countries came, and the small town suddenly became lively.

Fortunately, the small town's security force helped them block these all-pervasive reporters, maintained the minimum order at the filming site, and prevented some important scenes from being spoiled.

Halfway through the filming, these reporters finally left. It wasn't that the "Twilight" crew was no longer attractive, but that a more attractive crew appeared.

"007: Quantum of Solace" also came to Italy for filming!

Although the 007 series is not as brilliant as before, its influence outside North America is definitely not comparable to the current "Twilight Saga".

Even the first reboot of "Casino Royale" only has 160 million in North America, but it has 450 million overseas. The current box office prediction of "The Twilight Saga" by authoritative organizations is that the global box office can reach 450 million. It’s a huge victory, but the overseas foundation is still poor.

So you, Mr. Bond, are still you, Mr. Bond, and now reporters are running to photograph Bond and Bond girls.

Not to mention reporters, even Wang Quan wants to go.

However, he still dutifully filmed until the end of the day's scene, then rented a car and went to the next city with Xiao Wei.

As a result, the crew of "Quantum of Solace" encountered a little trouble.

Bond and the Bond girls were filming a drag racing scene. They closed a section of the road, and of course they had obtained permission from the local government. As a result, a small guy driving an Aston Martin insisted on passing through this road.

Maybe the crew members spoke a little impolitely, or gave a thumbs up, and then soon dozens of sports cars appeared on the set, sealing the closed road so that no one could get out.

Xiao Wei looked at Wang Quan, "Brother Quan, have we encountered the mafia?"

"What do you mean we? It's them. What does it have to do with us?" Wang Quan pushed four, five, and six.

Xiao Wei, "Then let's go?"

Seeing Gadot's anxious look from a distance, Wang Quan refused to leave, "I'll call and ask."

After the phone call ended, Wang Quan asked Xiao Wei, "Can you speak Italian?"

Xiao Wei, "I understand a little bit."

So he grabbed Xiao Wei and walked through the phalanx of sports cars.

Seeing the appearance of Wang Quan, Gadot was very surprised and her eyes widened.

Director Mark Forster was even more overjoyed. He had just called the producer, hoping that the other party could solve the problem, but the other party asked him to clarify the situation first and ask the other party's demands clearly.

But the other party refused to communicate and just blocked the exit to prevent them from moving. This was too uncomfortable. How to figure it out? The other party just wanted to cause trouble.

The German director who became famous with "The Kite Flyer" now hates their Italian allies. These people are really idle.

King Quan appeared just at this time, which gave him hope of solving the problem. This director is now known to everyone in Hollywood, and he comes from the East. Maybe he knows kung fu and can defeat a hundred with one person!

Then Wang Quan said hello to Daniel Craig, and finally walked up to Gadot, hugged her regardless of the rich emotions in her eyes, and said in her ear, "Don't worry, I'm here." "

After everyone said hello, Wang Quan walked up to the energetic young man with short hair and asked Xiao Wei to translate for him.

Then after Xiao Wei's translation, the short-haired guy became even more angry and kept gesticulating. The friends behind him also became even more angry and got into the car one after another, as if they wanted to destroy everything in front of them.

Wang Quan hurriedly asked Xiao Wei, "Did you translate it correctly?"

Xiao Wei, "There shouldn't be any problem. Could it be that my accent is wrong? I have a Milanese accent."

Xiao Wei sensed something was wrong and stood in front of Wang Quan, ready to show the value of his 50,000 monthly salary.

At this critical moment, Wang Quan made a call and handed the phone to the energetic young man.

After listening to a few words, the young man's expression suddenly changed, from an angry glare to a playful smile and condescension.

Then he respectfully returned the phone and asked his brothers to get out of the way. He himself followed Wang Quan and asked if there was anything else he needed to say.

Wang Quan looked at his luxury sports car. He was worried about what car to rent for tomorrow's scene, so he asked, "Can we borrow your car for our crew to use?"

"Okay, okay, no problem."

Then Wang Quan asked Xiao Wei to give him an address and asked him to drive there when the time came. He also specifically asked, "Have you bought insurance?"

Just make sure you buy it.

In the end, the staff headed by the director expressed their sincere gratitude to Wang Quan for his generous intervention. After filming this scene, they still had to rush to the next scene, mainly Gadot's scene.

Because he knew that Gadot had some skills, especially shooting, the director temporarily added a lot of scenes for her. This was a shooting and sniping scene.

Wang Quan asked, "Can I follow."

"Of course, Director David and Gadot are good friends."

"Yes, very good friends."

Watching them filming, Wang Quan couldn't hold back, "Director Mark, do you think this shot doesn't reflect Gadot's strengths enough?"

"Advantage? What advantage?"

"Long legs!"

Wang Quan picked up the gun she used in the film and said, "What do you think if we let her wear a high-slit skirt at this time and then shoot in this position?"

King Power stole a classic scene for Gadot from Mission: Impossible 5.

The director imagined the scene and suddenly took a picture of the thigh, "Seconds, but the current clothes are not good, so we will shoot here today. For clothing, choose a dress with high slits and preferably a backless one. Tomorrow I want to use!"

Gadot took Wang Quan to find a secluded place. Just when she was about to ask a question, Wang Quan kissed her directly. Gadot struggled a little and began to respond enthusiastically.

At this time, Gadot's assistant, who didn't know what was going on, ran over, holding a car key in his hand and shouted to Gadot, "Boss, I borrowed the car, aren't you going to Montepulciano tonight?" !”
