You don't understand the happiness of the director
Chapter 535 The ruthless character appears
Liu Yifei looked at the online reports angrily. She was not that fat. It was simply because the person who took the photo had ulterior motives and found an angle that showed her fatness the most.
She immediately asked Mei Xi to help her suppress the heat. It wasn't that she was ugly, but she didn't want her character image to be exposed in advance, which would greatly reduce the audience's sense of surprise.
As a result, Mei Xi told her that the matter was brewed on Toutiao today and was not under the control of her Weibo 8 million navy coach.
"But don't worry, sister, Toutiao is also one of our people. I will help you communicate and I will definitely not let my uncle see it."
Mei Xi also said something else in her heart: I know you are sad that my uncle is marrying Sister Mi, but you can’t give up on yourself like that. Getting fat will ruin everything!
Liu Yifei thought it was okay. She looked at herself in the mirror. Although she was a little fatter, she was round and cute, but the cupping marks on her back were a bit distracting.
Here, Fat Fei was concentrating on herself, feeling sorry for herself, when Yang Mi called again.
"Aren't you still relieved? I really am not with your husband!"
"Do you have it?"
"Ah?" Liu Yifei was stunned for a moment.
"Sissi, tell me the truth. Are you pregnant? Don't fight this kind of thing alone. We are a family and we are tired of logging!"
Liu Yifei lowered her head and glanced at the little flesh on her waist, and she suddenly became furious, "You are here, sir!"
Liu Yifei hung up the phone directly, but Yang Mi was still uneasy. She first asked Mi Shi to find someone to calm down the heat, and then personally went to Ji Province to find the crew of "Don't Tell Her".
Although it is a film about the dragon raising its head, when it comes to China, it still needs Wangdao's team to assist in the filming. Just ask and you will know.
When she really saw Liu Yifei, Yang Mi was completely relieved. It turned out that she was just getting fat and it was a false alarm.
However, when she learned that she did this for the role, and heard that she took a reduced salary for the role, Yang Mi couldn't help but feel distressed. It's just a role, and it's worth millions of dollars. Why are you playing with your life?
If she were in her shoes, she would definitely not be able to do the same thing. She could pretend to be ugly. There would be no problem with buck teeth and disfigurement. She could do it with makeup, but don't even think about gaining weight.
I, Yang Dami, rely on my figure and face to survive in the world. This is digging into my foundation!
And what should I do if I can’t lose weight anymore?
"I have to lose weight. I will be filming "Zhu Xian" by then. I have to lose weight even if I don't eat or drink!"
"Be careful when filming "Pig Fairy"~" Yang Mi touched Liu Yifei's flesh. Suddenly, her hands softened, "Hey, your breasts seem to be bigger!"
Liu Yifei straightened up proudly: "When I lose weight, I have to study with my coach whether I can only reduce the part above and below the breasts. I believe in the power of science."
Yang Mi said "嘁", haven't you heard that you should slim down your breasts first? Not everyone can be as talented as me.
After meeting Liu Yifei, Yang Mi went back to Beijing directly. She didn't need to film anymore, she just took care of the company's work. It happened that the box office share of "Where Are We Going, Dad" came into her account.
So she called several interested parties such as Mango Channel and Guangwang to start a spoils-sharing meeting. At the same time, the second season of "Where Are We Going, Dad" was also put on the agenda.
The first season was so successful that celebrity fathers who want to be on the show in the second season simply don't want to be too active and just focus on this to become famous.
In fact, Yang Mi really wanted Deng Chao and his son to appear on the show. Both father and son are quite interesting.
However, "Where Are We Going, Dad" obviously cannot command the same high price as "Running Man", and Deng Chao does not want his son to be exposed too much. As a fourth-generation student, Deng Chao is not short of the money.
Since "Captain America 2" was released in mainland China in early April, Spring Festival movies have officially withdrawn from the stage of history.
However, some had already withdrawn, but "Leng Feng" persisted until the end. It was released for more than two months, and it still had a box office of nearly one million even the day before it was released.
The final box office did not live up to its quality and buzz, with a box office of 2.389 billion, which is nearly 400 million dollars even if converted into U.S. dollars. It is also an incredible achievement for a single film to have such a high box office in the North American market.
In addition, "Leng Feng" mobilized a total of 58.2 million viewers in the mainland, raising the movie attendance record by more than 10 million!
Moreover, the film's global box office has exceeded US$700 million at this time, and is still being released in multiple markets. It has easily broken the global record for Chinese-language films (US$618 million) set by "The Adventures of Li Xianji" last year.
Moreover, "Cold Front" broke records for Chinese-language films in many markets around the world, especially India.
Unexpectedly, in the eyes of Chinese people, this movie, which severely criticized the Mumbai military police, was extremely popular at the box office in India and is expected to be among the top ten in India. For the exclusive Indian audience, this is something that even many Hollywood blockbusters cannot do.
In addition to the quality of "Cold Front" and the fact that it filmed a story that took place in India, many viewers went there to see the three Khans at once.
However, Indian audiences also expressed their dissatisfaction with the movie. There were too few songs and dances. When the male protagonist eliminated the terrorists, a half-hour song and dance could have been inserted to adjust the atmosphere.
This is not as good as the previous film "Slumdog Millionaire". I hope director David will improve next time.
The second place in the Spring Festival stalls is "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven", produced by companies such as China Film and Xinghao Entertainment. It was very strong at the beginning, but was later surpassed by "I Am Not Wang Mao", and finally achieved a score of 956 million. Next drawing, I regret not being able to break the one billion mark.
According to their own stated cost of 500 million, this result would cost them at least 200 million. However, the film studio said that a sequel is already in preparation. In two years, the Journey to the West series will make a comeback!
It can be seen that the investment amount claimed by the official is not necessarily accurate, or they may have recovered the cost from other channels.
It's just that the newly appointed chairman of China Film Group, Mr. La, has no intention of continuing to follow up.
As an emperor and a courtier, I will no longer take advantage of Mr. Han.
Qiankun's black-and-white anti-war comedy "I'm Not Wang Mao" is considered a dark horse. The unconventional combination of Wang Baoqiang + Lin Chiling actually surpassed "Havoc in Heaven" in the second period, relying on word-of-mouth to earn 24 times the stamina from 30 million on the first day. In total, The box office was 738 million.
Lao Wang was naturally overjoyed and even made a gentleman's agreement with Bao Qiang. Whenever he wanted to be a director, Qiankun would definitely support him.
Mishi's "Where Are We Going, Dad" can be regarded as making money amidst the controversy.
The box office of 655 million, excluding the distribution to partners such as Mango and Enlight, as well as the investment costs, the net profit of Power World is more than 100 million, which is equivalent to the profit of the first season. It is a bloody profit!
With such a profit, the company will definitely make such a big variety movie in the second season.
In fact, not only Mishi thinks so, but the old members of the first season also think so. Dads like Lin Zhiying and Guo Da are planning to make a sentimental movie when the time comes.
Moreover, the directors are all ready-made, so just let Yue Lun'er come and Li Xiang be the producer. By then, the popularity of Star Dad's cute baby in the second season may not be as popular as them.
"Omen" has a box office of 497 million, which is not bad. The initial performance really made Wang Jing and Yu Dong sweat. Fortunately, it has good stamina.
Such a movie with a not so good reputation has actually achieved 20 times the momentum of the first day. Who are you to blame? Mainland audiences are still very tolerant.
So the second part has been put on the schedule, and Wang Jing visited the thatched cottage three times and finally asked Shen Tong to play an important role.
Wang Jing invited me during the first film, but it ended up being on schedule with "Charlotte Trouble". There was nothing we could do.
Shen Tong finally has no reason this time, but Wang Jing is also curious about the quality of Shen Tong's second starring comedy movie, which will be available in the summer.
In addition, "Bear Bears" earned 247 million, becoming the all-time champion of Chinese animated films.
"Predecessor" has 105 million. Riding on the popularity of the royal power Liu Yifei, it finally broke through the 100 million mark.
"Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", 76 million, is the only movie not to break 100 million during this year's Spring Festival. It feels like their audience has been robbed by the next door "Bear Bears".
Due to the dismal performance and some changes in the company, there will probably be no next "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" next year, and the Spring Festival animated animation market will be completely lost to "The Infested Bears".
The total box office of the above eight movies was 5.663 billion. In 2008, the total box office in a year was not that much.
In addition to these eight films, "The Left Ear", which will be released on Valentine's Day, has already been completed. The 418 million yuan result can be said to be a huge profit for this movie with a brand-new cast.
However, the heroine Chen Duling decided to temporarily retire and stop filming. She will finish college and will only occasionally appear in variety shows to maintain her popularity.
It can be seen that after seeing the luxuriant flowers and money flowing in the entertainment industry, her ultimate preference is to join the entertainment industry.
It's just that the entertainment industry is a big dyeing vat, and she wants to find a cleaner vat to rely on.
Director Wang Quan, whom she had only met once, left a particularly good impression on her. He was elegant, knowledgeable, and strong. He would definitely not do those messy things to actresses.
~
USA, New York.
At the filming site of "Fifty Shades of Grey", Ma Ling was inviting Wang Quan to visit a major scene. The heroine Dakota Johnson was wrapped in a bath towel and was very relaxed. She didn't think it was a big deal.
Ma Ling even secretly asked Wang Quan if he had any ideas. If so, she could convey it to him, "Dakota admires you very much."
Wang Quan waved his hand, "I'm not that kind of person. If I knew you were filming this kind of scene today, I wouldn't come."
Ma Ling smiled: "You're here now."
With a "click", Dakota Johnson threw away her bathrobe, leaving nothing on her body. Wang Quan immediately looked at it attentively.
After the visit, Wang Quan had a secret meeting at the hotel with Girls' Generation's frontwoman Lin Yoona, who was in New York for a concert. This was the main purpose of Wang Quan's weekend trip.
Now Lin Yoona is as popular as the rest of the team combined.
Since she was deeply bound to Wang Quan, NEW Company's movies have to be chosen by her first, and only those that are not suitable will be given to others.
As a result, Lin Yoona's performance in the film industry began to be unparalleled, and she was known as the number one actress in Zhongwu Road. She also lived up to her reputation. "Sunny Sisters", "Wolf Boy", "The Gift of Room No. 7" and "Strange Her" were all hits. After the explosion, S.M Company's control over her became weaker and weaker.
So when she met Wang Quan, Yoona's enthusiasm was sincere. She first performed their latest girl group dance for Wang Quan. Of course, this time it was a Crazy Horse show-level version.
Then there was the exchange of souls. Yoona shouted "Oppa" and Wang Quan shouted "I wipe"~
After going out to relax over the weekend, Wang Quan will return to Los Angeles on Monday to continue working. Within this month, he will cut a trailer for "The Force Awakens", which he will take to the Cannes International Film Festival in May.
The trip to Cannes can be regarded as the first stop for the global promotion of "The Force Awakens". It is not unusual for such a large-scale production to have a promotion cycle of half a year.
At the end of April, Wang Quan returned to China again. He basically managed to come back once a month to accompany Mimi for prenatal check-ups. The fetus was already five months old, and Mimi was a little fatter, but she still looked girly.
In addition to accompanying his pregnant wife, Wang Quan also went to visit the set of "The Legend of the Shark Pearl". Brother Cheng Long happened to be there, so Wang Quan could only ignore Naza for the time being and chatted with his eldest brother Long.
Regardless of how happy he is now, he probably won't be happy for long.
After much selection, Li Weiran finally chose Cheng Long as the nominal male lead of the film. With him, the Spring Festival release would be considered stable.
But Cheng Long was not cheap. He paid a salary of 50 million yuan, plus a share of Hong Kong's box office. In addition, he hired his family team at a high price, and the film budget was also increased from 250 million to 300 million.
For this reason, he only gave the crew a one-month schedule, because he still had a lot of work at home and abroad, and this time it was for the sake of Wang Quan.
Still working hard at such an age, Zhang Yimou in the director's world and Cheng Long in the actor's world can be regarded as role models of staying strong with age.
One month's schedule is enough. In fact, he doesn't have the most roles, at least he's not the leading male lead.
The real male protagonist is the human agent played by Chen Xiao, and according to Li Weiran's setting, this will be the soul character throughout the entire series.
It's just that Chen Xiao is too young, his nationality is not high enough, and his ability to resist box office is not stable enough, so he invited Cheng Long to escort and take charge.
In addition, there are golden supporting roles such as Wu Mengda, Yu Dailei, Zhou Wei, Xiao Yang, etc. Naza's mentor, Zhang Songwen, Zhou Wei's old classmate, also played a shark role.
With two female disciples, Nazha and Jing Tian, Zhang Songwen is not worried about film appointments, but he is still not popular and can only play supporting roles.
On the contrary, there are many film crews who look to him to train actors. He is positioned as an actor coach in the industry, rather than a capable actor.
Wang Quan chatted with Cheng Long and learned that he had also just arrived from the crew of "Lion". That movie was a project he led, so he paid more attention to it.
And unfortunately, "Lion" will also be released during the Spring Festival next year.
So he said it first, "If "Shark Pearl" and "Lion" collide, most of my promotional energy will probably be there."
Wang Quan also expressed his understanding that there is indeed distance and distance between them.
Then Cheng Long expressed his willingness to cooperate with Wang Quan. "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is just a guest appearance and cannot be counted.
This little guy is so awesome. A Chinese-language film broke 200 million US dollars in North America and more than 700 million US dollars globally. When he was the most popular, the "Rush Hour" series could not reach it!
This guy is truly a hunk from heaven in Chinese movies!
Regarding Brother Cheng Long's request, Wang Quan said with a smile: "I will definitely cooperate if I have the opportunity."
Afterwards, Wang Quan checked the material that Li Weiran had already shot. He was still satisfied that he had not messed up. With the cooperation of an excellent team, the quality of the film was not compromised.
Li Weiran expects to finish filming in early July. If he wants to catch up with the Spring Festival, he will only have half a year to do post-production work.
Now that Cheng Long has been hired at a high price, it will be even more uneconomical if he doesn't go to the Spring Festival stalls, so the battle for the Spring Festival stalls is unstoppable.
After Wang Quan pondered for a moment, he said: "It will definitely not be enough to rely on Butian Filming alone. Let Chu Ling say hello to other domestic special effects companies in advance. We can add money. People from October Culture will also be called over to help. We have to race against time." ”
After talking about these trivial matters, Wang Quan left and then gave Naza a wink.
Soon, Nazha returned to her new home, where Wang Quan was already waiting for her.
Wang Quan said: "These two times I came back, apart from Mimi, I only looked at you."
Nazha hooked Wang Quan's neck and didn't want to say anything, she just did it.
The girl took the initiative to kiss Wang Quan, and Wang Quan took out a valuable necklace.
It will be her birthday in a few days, and Wang Quan gave her a birthday gift in advance.
Later, Naza was made wearing a necklace, hanging in white in front of the king.
"By the way, Xiao Yang wants me to act in their music video. Do you think I should agree?" Afterwards, the two started chatting.
"MV?"
"Yes, I will sing for you," Nazha started to laugh without singing, "You are my little apple, just like the most beautiful clouds in the sky..."
This is the promotional song for "Oldboy: The Dragon Crosses the River", which Xiao Yang himself directed. Although Wang Dao did not invest in it, Qiankun took over and it is scheduled to be released in the summer.
Xiao Yangshi wants to prove to his idol Wang Quan that he is a good director, and he pays great attention to everything from the script to the performance to the songs.
Wang Quan looked at Naza's lovely dancing figure and held her face in his hands, "I think it's acceptable. I have a hunch that this song will become popular."
"It's not popular, but I quite like it. It's suitable for people like me who are not very good at singing." Nazhagaga said happily.
Wang Quan had to go back to Mimi's place in the evening, but Naza didn't stay with him since she also had an appointment.
The movie version of "A Smile Is Beautiful" is about to start filming. The heroine is Di Lieba. She asked Naza just to ask for advice on how to play Bei Weiwei well.
Although fans online always compare the two of them in terms of their appearance, career, and career line, in private the relationship between the two is actually pretty good.
They were all from the royal family, and they were from the same hometown and race. They came from the same school. There were very few people like them in the entertainment industry. There was no need for unreasonable internal strife. Mainly, Nazha didn't think Reba had the qualifications to compare with herself.
"The most important thing about playing this role well is the sense of CP. Even if there is no kissing scene, the audience will be stunned to death. By the way, who played your Xiao Nai?"
"Have you heard of EXO?"
"A combination?" Nazha shook her head. She was a woman with a man, and she wanted to be a woman, so she didn't care about that.
Reba introduced, "This kimchi country group debuted two years ago and is now popular throughout Asia. Moreover, four of its members are Chinese, three of them are from China, and one is from Maple Leaf Country. Sister Mi said she found them for me. Xiao Nai is the Chinese from Maple Leaf Country, look at the photo."
Reba showed Naza a photo of Xiao Wu. Naza looked at the man with heavy makeup and sneered, "This doesn't look like the top student Xiao Nai."

Mimi's house.
When Yang Mi chatted with Wang Quan about the plans for the new film "Power Generation", she also mentioned the movie version of "A Little Smile Is Alluring".
But when he heard that Xiao Wu had been cast as the leading actor, Wang Quan asked, "Has the contract been signed yet?"
"Not yet, he is in the process of terminating the contract with S.M. Kimchi Country, as you know, it is too difficult for artists to make money. The other party said that he can sign the contract after the contract is successfully terminated, so as to save the brokerage company's share."
Wang Quan breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing his curiosity, Yang Mi introduced again: "You don't know, these four Chinese teenagers are very popular, especially Xiao Wu and Xiao Lu. Now Xiao Wu is about to terminate the contract, and Xiao Lu is probably going to take action too."
As for the two top celebrities, Wang Quan's attitude towards traffic stars is actually indifferent, because he has no need, he himself is the biggest traffic star, and only he and Zhang Yimou have this confidence among domestic directors.
But he doesn't envy others when they use it, let alone stop him. This thing is a trend of historical development and cannot be stopped.
However, it is just a matter of a trend, and the market will naturally adjust. In the end, strength will speak for itself.
But French coffee doesn’t work.
Wang Quan directly told Yang Mi: "Since we haven't signed a contract, let's find another male lead."
"Ah, why, do you have a holiday?" Yang Mi asked strangely.
Wang Quan nodded: "I met him once when I was filming "Juno" at their school, and he looked at me askance."
"What, you rebelled against him, you dared to look askance at my husband!" Yang Mi's chest rose and fell with anger, Wang Quan helped her calm down.
Yang Mi: "You must let him apologize to you and stand up to toast, otherwise he will not be able to act in our company's drama."
Wang Quan said with a straight face: "So you still plan to have him, right?"
Yang Mi smiled: "You are serious, then give me a valid reason."
"I don't like you to have too much contact with these young idols. Although they are not as handsome as me, they are younger than me."
Hearing this, Yang Mi was in disbelief, and then laughed like a fox, "You, are you jealous?"
Wang Quan put the little pregnant woman on his lap, "Yes, in the future when you film, it's best to cooperate with people like Teacher Ge You, Huang Bo, Bao Qiang, and Xu Zheng, otherwise I won't feel at ease."
Yang Mi felt sweet in her heart. She had always been jealous of him and couldn't finish it. Until she became immune, she didn't know what the vinegar tasted like. Now it was finally his turn to be jealous. Could this be the taste of pregnant women? Charisma bonus?
Yang Mi blocked Wang Quan's mouth and wouldn't let him touch her in another month or two. She wanted to take another risk tonight.
When the mattress stopped beating, Yang Mi agreed to Wang Quan and changed the male lead. She also specifically let Wang Quan see the options for the male lead, "Would this work? Li Xian has also worked with Wang Dao."
"Okay, this one looks like a normal person. I hate pretty boys the most."
Wang Quan left the next day, and on this day, "Frozen: Gate of Rebirth" starring Zhen Zidan and Wang Baoqiang became a hot search because it was ugly.
Due to issues with the scoring mechanism, there are very few movies with a Maoyan score of less than six, which can be said to be basically unwatchable, such as "The Fairy Tale," which was previously in the Spring Festival.
And this "Frozen: Gate of Rebirth" is such a top-notch movie, which caused Bao Qiang to be hit hard by the rising popularity and reputation of "I Am Not Wang Mao" just now.
Although Zhen Zidan is also very injured, he has a solid foundation. Not only does "Star Wars: A Star Wars Story" replenish his blood, but the newly appointed director of China Film and Television plans to cooperate with Harvey to develop the sequel to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".
This sequel was directed by Yuan Heping, and Zhen Zidan was invited to play the leading role. He now has more box office appeal than Chow Yun-fat.
Even if these two projects fail, he will still have "Ip Man 3" next. This series is his absolute comfort zone.
When "Leng Feng" first became a big hit, Zhen Zidan was really worried, worried that the younger Wu Jing would seize her action film market.
Unexpectedly, Wu Jing didn't even reap the dividends brought by "Leng Feng". He didn't even go to Hollywood to make a career. He just got into the crew and directed and acted.
Alas, sometimes the choice determines the height. It can be seen from "Spike" that he is not the material and wastes his time.
~
When Wang Quan returned to Los Angeles, the North American box office of director Dongmu's new film "American Sniper", which was released at the beginning of the month, officially exceeded US$300 million.
Dorothy exclaimed excitedly: My old baby is amazing!
Since the American version of "Let the Bullets Fly", Lao Dongmu has blossomed and become more brave as he fought more and more. This biographical film has become a hot topic in North America. I thought it would be difficult to break 100 million US dollars in North America, but I didn't expect that it would reach 300 million US dollars all the way.
Next, he still chose to cooperate with Long Toutou, and it is still a biopic. He plans to film Chesley B. Sullenberger III, the protagonist of the crash landing of US Airways Flight 1549 in 2017, also known as "Captain Sully".
By May, a quarter of the special effects for "The Force Awakens" had been completed, which was enough for King Power to cut a decent trailer and take it to Cannes.
"Alice, do you want to go abroad with your father?" Wang Quan asked his daughter.
After hearing that she said she didn't want to, Wang Quan felt regretful and relieved at the same time. After all, he was going to work.
Now that Xiao Yu'er is in kindergarten, she likes to play with the children and doesn't want to take leave for no reason.
Gadot doesn't have much work now, and she has no pressure to take care of her children in kindergarten, so she doesn't need Wang Quan to share the burden.
Wang Quan lived with Gadot during this period of time in Los Angeles, so there was no need to avoid anything. Even if he was photographed, he was not afraid. Anyway, you can't object to being photographed on the bed.
My daughter is here, and there are so many rooms. What’s wrong with me moving in?
In the evening, Wang Quan and Gadot engaged in a passionate sport even though they were an old couple. She, who is nearly thirty years old, is now familiar with it.
Before leaving, he went to see his son Alex again. The child was almost two years old. He could walk and do anything he asked people to do. He just liked to be alone, watch TV, dig in the soil, etc. The main thing was to save worry.
This makes the two mothers feel very unfulfilled. They don't get hysterical because of their children, and other children don't do this either!
Just the arrival of his sister can make this little kid cry, yell and laugh like a little kid.
Now the two children are playing in the garden. Wang Quan closes the door and window and plays with the two mothers in the bedroom.
Dorothy drew circles on Wang Quan's chest, "The third part of "The Hunger Games" is about to be released. Do you want to make a bet~"
"Stop it!" Wang Quan still remembers the shame of dressing up as a woman for the only time in his life, and he will never do it a second time.
Although there is data in the film and television library, many things have changed when people, companies, and directors have been changed.
Originally, the box office of "The Hunger Games" series was not as good as the previous one, but the second part actually surpassed the first one, so I don't know what will happen now. Little K's top-notch power is unfathomable!
Little K was busy working downstairs at the moment. Wang Quan asked them to change positions and come back.
Wang Quan did not fly directly to Cannes, but returned to China first to attend the wedding of Wu Jing and Xie Nan.
Last month, "Wolf Warrior" was finished filming. Wu Jing temporarily put aside his post-production work and arranged a wedding to marry the pregnant Xie Nan.
Although Xie Nan's belly looks much more obvious than Yang Mi's, in fact, their due dates are almost the same.
So Yang Mi seriously suspected that Xie Nan was pregnant with a boy and she was pregnant with a girl.
It stands to reason that Liu Yifei and Wu Jing had filmed "The Witch" and their relationship was very good, but Liu Yifei said that she was still filming in the Northeast and couldn't leave, so she didn't come.
Wang Quan felt that it was such a pity that he hadn't seen her for three months. He thought he would be able to get a pot of fairy honey when he came back this time.
Could it be that she was frightened by the incident between Wen Zhang and Yao Di? In fact, it's not that serious. Wen Zhang's new drama "Young Marshal" will be broadcast soon, and the TV station still bought it at a high price.
Although he didn't see Liu Yifei, Wang Quan saw another "Liu".
Master Liu.
She and Xie Nan are very good friends, and they are the bridesmaids this time. They have not seen each other for more than four months since they parted ways on Peach Blossom Island.
Wang Quan simply said hello to her, but Master Liu kept looking at him secretly.
Finally, he couldn't help but sigh. Did he not remember what happened that night at all?
But if he doesn't remember, why would Wang Dao invite himself to star in the sequel to "Capital No. 81"?
Although it is a horror film, and although she is the second female lead, it is not shameful to play the second female lead for Mei Ting, and the box office of the first film was so high, it is actually a good resource for a TV drama star like her.
Is there really no royal authority in this?
Wang Quan: I’m not, I don’t have it. Maybe Cai Jun thinks your eyes are hollow, so you’re more suitable for playing Ah Piao~
When the groom was toasting, Wang Quan had a brief chat with Wu Jing. In addition to working on the post-production of movies, he is expected to take on a few more movies and repay his debt of gratitude.
Now he is so popular, the leading actor in "Leng Feng", and his reputation is known all over the world.
Although his fan popularity may not be as good as that of the four young students because his face is not pretty enough, it is not much worse, and the mass base may even be wider, so he wants to help many directors and producers who have helped him in Hong Kong before.
"Westward Journey 3", "Slaying the Wolf 2", and "Dangerous City" all came to my door.
And it’s not like they don’t give me money, they even give me a lot of money. If the investment in “Wolf Warrior” fails, at least it won’t lower the quality of life of my wife and children.
Wang Quan patted him on the shoulder, "With an investment of less than 200 million, if this will all fail, you underestimate the value of the word Leng Feng."
The investment for "Wolf Warrior" in this time and space is doubled compared to Wu Jing's version of "Wolf Warrior" in the original time and space. The actors' remuneration is secondary, and the main reason is the scale and sophistication of the production.
Wang Quan has read the script. There are many big scenes, and there is support from the military region. Many high-end equipment have been brought out for him to show off, allowing him to better utilize his advantages in this area.
After attending the wedding, there were still three days before the opening of Cannes. Wang Quan finally missed Sissi too much, so he simply flew to Ji Province secretly.
After arriving, he contacted Li Xian and asked her where she was filming the movie now, "Why did it take so long?"
"Boss, we have finished filming."
"It's finished. When was it finished?"
"A week ago, oh, I went back to my hometown after filming, but I haven't returned to the company yet. What's wrong?"
Wang Quan's heart skipped a beat, Sissi was hiding something from me!
"I want to find Liu Yifei, but she said it hasn't been finalized yet."
"Well, then I probably know why she lied to you, but are you sure you want to see her now?"
~
In a prefecture-level city in Jilin Province, in the most luxurious hotel in the area.
Liu Yifei's private room is filled with a variety of sports equipment. The hotel owner is a fan of hers and is very accommodating and responsive to all requests.
"Little Apple" was playing in the room now. She was listening to it and practicing at the same time, feeling energetic all over her body. She felt that this song was in line with her usual style of music.
Her fitness coaches are Sanxiu and a local long-legged female coach.
She was immersed in it when suddenly the door opened, "Is it Sanxiu?"
Liu Yifei looked back and said "Ah", and quickly covered her face with the towel around her neck, like a bride's hijab.
Wang Quan walked over and Sanxiu pulled the coach out of the room.
Wang Quan kissed Liu Yifei through the towel, and suddenly, a light suddenly appeared in his mind.
This scene seems familiar!
Watch "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"?
No, no.
Ah, I remembered it. On the day of my wedding and entering the bridal chamber, I seemed to have kissed a woman with a hijab. That person seemed to be Sissi, but she was not Sissi.
Damn it, Master Liu!
But now he couldn't care less about Master Liu and gently picked up Qian Qian.
I probably know what she is thinking now. Only by using proactive and tireless attacks can she understand: You are still beautiful!
"Now I weigh 118 pounds~"
When Wang Quan stripped her naked, she finally spoke.
"It's okay. You're so tall and your weight is pretty normal."
"When I was at my peak, I weighed 128 pounds. I kept gaining weight at that time. I was frightened. I started dieting secretly before I even finished it~"
"It's a pity that I can only see you like that in movies."
"Don't look at it, it's so ugly."
Wang Quan shook his head, "People who devote themselves to their ideals and careers are beautiful."
Wang Quan made Sissy happy with his affectionate words, and the two of them tossed around for two hours. Sanxiu and the others had a meal and a bath, but they still hadn't received the signal to come back.
Now "Zhu Xian" has started shooting again, but the scenes currently being filmed are the male protagonist Zhang Xiaofan. Although this series is famous for its emotional scenes, it is also an out-and-out male protagonist story.
If Yang Mi only had a few minutes of scenes in the first film, then Liu Yifei would only have half an hour of scenes at most. She can join the cast early next month.
In more than half a month, she needs to drop her weight to less than 100 pounds.
So when Wang Quan had rested enough, she let Wang Quan go, "I still have to exercise, otherwise I won't achieve my goal today."
"I flew all this way to get one shot, it seems like I'm very ruthless."
"I know you are deeply in love, be good~" Liu Yifei coaxed Wang Quan and then persuaded him to leave.
Then Wang Quan flew back to the capital, bringing with him Tian Xiaopeng and the dumpling director who was already waiting in the capital.
This trip to Cannes was mainly to promote the film.
There are more than one "The Force Awakens" in "The Dragon Raises Its Head", and there is also the illuminated animated film "Frozen" that was launched this year.
Wangdao brought the first animated film "Journey to the West: The Return of the Monkey King" under Inception Animation.
In addition, Wang Quan asked director Dumpling to come over. He was always bored in the city doing animations and could easily get sick. First, he wanted to relax and learn some lessons from "The Return of the Great Sage".
Both directors were very introverted. It was their first time to fly on a private plane. The interior was luxurious and the flight attendants were elegant. They didn’t say a word or move their butts. It was written all over their faces: I am a technical geek, you can’t see me.
So it was only Wang Quan who stirred up the topic.
"Director Dumpling, has the script of "The Devil Boy" been completed?"
"Oh, it's done," Dumpling raised his head and spoke Mandarin with a slight Sichuan flavor, "By the way, I also brought the image of Nezha this time, and I also want to ask the boss to help us choose one."
Filming Nezha was a proposition given to Dumpling by Wang Quan. With just a little guidance, Dumpling came up with this script called "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World", which is almost the same as the version in the original time and space.
As for the image of Nezha, his team designed hundreds of them, and Wang Quan asked Tian Xiaopeng to come over and provide advice.
When talking about their professional stuff, the two directors gradually relaxed and even asked the stewardess to refill their glasses when they were thirsty.
On May 13, Wang Quan and his entourage arrived in Paris the day before the opening ceremony in Cannes, and then transferred to Cannes.
And on the plane, they also finally determined the image of the devil boy. The boy with the dark circles under his eyes was very good, he was awesome.
After all, this is Cannes, the holy land of global movies, where stars gather every May, so Xiaotian goes out of his way to ask for leave from school to come, so Wang Quan is always followed by two beauties, Xiaoai and Xiaotian.
Wang Quan had a private room, the two of them slept in the second bedroom, and Wang Quan slept in the master bedroom.
Before going upstairs, Wang Quan was also asked by the judges of this year's main competition unit, Cannes Best Actress and Chungmuro's top actress Jeon Do-yeon to take a photo and sign her name. She looked like a fan girl, and Wang Quan has also appeared in Asian film events many times. Praise for her performance.
In addition to Quan Doyeon, there is another Asian face among this year's judges, and that is Jia Zhangke.
Although there are judges from China and South Korea, there are no works from these two countries in the shortlist of the main competition unit. From Asia, only Naomi Kawase of Neon has been shortlisted.
Tomorrow's opening film is "Princess of Monaco".
Princess Grace Kelly of Monaco is a Hollywood superstar, Oscar-winning actress, Hitchcock's muse, and the role is played by the famous Nicole Kidman.
So that night, Wang Quan couldn't stay idle, and he and Nicole relaxed the pressure in her room.
The next day.
Wang Quan, who has no works, was invited to walk on the red carpet.
After that, I just watch movies and promote the movies I brought.
"The Force Awakens" is a super big IP, and a trailer can attract the attention of global media and movie fans.
"Frozen" is adapted from King Quan's comics, and the story is based on Andersen's "The Snow Queen". It is also known as Illumination Entertainment's most expensive animation, and it naturally attracts the attention of a large number of media and industry insiders.
And "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage" can only rely on the topical figure Wang Quan to shout out. At this time, it can only be wronged by director Tian Xiaopeng to step back behind the scenes and let Wang Quan stand in front of the stage.
Tian Xiaopeng: Great, great!
This movie was in the screening section, and at the invitation of Wang Quan, not only Nicole Kidman but also Jeon Do-yeon came.
Chinese stars who were in Cannes, including Jia Zhangke, Zhao Tao and his wife, Gong Li, Zhang Ziyi, Yu Dong, Jin Qiaoqiao and his wife, also attended.
In addition, Naomi Kawase, Sofia Coppola, Willem Dafoe and other international celebrities were also present.
Compared with live-action movies, animation can more easily break cultural and racial barriers.
The protagonists of the animations themselves have all kinds of strange looks, and it is easy for people to forget the colors of white, yellow and black. Some animations are even not people at all, but animals, or even emotions.
The animated protagonist of "The Return of the Great Sage" is a monkey.
In the eyes of foreigners, it may be a monkey, but to Chinese people, this is the Monkey King, the Monkey King, whom everyone knows. Just looking at the poster, the image is a bit subverted, and the face is too long.
Before the screening, Wang Quan asked the foreigners around him if they knew Sun Wukong?
Both Jeon Do-yeon and Kawase Naomi, who are in the Asian cultural circle, know his story and can even tell his story in a clear and logical manner. Especially Kawase Naomi, who has a deep memory of Tang Monk's beauty, has always been moved by the love between Tang Monk and Sun Wukong.
Wang Quan: Uh...
As for other Europeans and Americans, they have basically only heard of it. This is far lower than Wang Quan imagined. Publicity and promotion have a long way to go!
Therefore, during the movie viewing process, these Westerners can only watch the fun. There are many things that Chinese people can understand at a glance, but they don't quite understand.
Of course, reading subtitles also exacerbates this difficulty in understanding.
But this is also the advantage of cartoons. The re-dubbing of live-action movies is very inconsistent, but cartoons are much better. They can even be adjusted through technical means to match the mouth shape.
Therefore, in China, Wang Quan has never seen the Chinese version of Hollywood live-action blockbusters, but he often watches the Chinese version of Hollywood cartoons.
Although foreigners couldn’t understand it, the final battle scene was quite exciting and the songs seemed pretty good. In addition, King Power told a lot of story background at the beginning, so everyone cheered and applauded for several minutes.
Not long after the screening here, the domestic propaganda machine began to take action.
"The Return of the Great Sage" shocked Cannes and received endless applause. Start writing the manuscript for me!
At this time, the domestic audience couldn't sit still. Is it so good-looking? Is Chinese animation really going to get rid of its subtitles?
The applause from foreigners was mostly polite, but the applause from a few Chinese people was heartfelt. Gong Li moved his mouth as if to applaud, and Zhang Ziyi even started to wipe her tears.
And Yu Dong quickly checked the schedule of this movie. Bona's movie must not be on the same schedule as it!
I really can’t imagine that this film was created entirely by a mainland team.
He read all the last subtitles. There were only a few foreign names, and the rest were Chinese names.
He also watched the "Frozen" film produced by Illumination Entertainment two days ago. It was excellent. There was nothing wrong with it. It was worthy of being produced by Illumination Entertainment, which cost almost a billion dollars.
Compared with "Frozen", "The Return of the Great Sage" is not as exquisite, but the local sentiment is not overshadowed. People of his age spent their childhood watching "Havoc in Heaven", and then watched the 1982 version. "Journey to the West" into adulthood.
Although the adaptation has little to do with the original work, the moment the Great Sage transformed, the blood in his whole body boiled. This thing was too lethal to the Chinese people!
There is no solution!
It was also the first time for Jiaozi to see the complete version of "The Return of the Great Sage". After watching it, he set this movie as his own role model. "The Devil Boy" must be produced according to this quality, otherwise he will let down his boss. It took a lot of effort to come to Cannes by myself.
Wang Quan stayed in Cannes for about a week, watched all the films in the main competition, and secretly evaluated the pros and cons of his next film.
He also contacted many foreign film producers who were interested in "The Return of the Monkey King", learned about the thoughts of film producers from various countries, and discussed the possibility of cooperation.
These processes were conducted with two directors, and they gained a lot of knowledge.
As for "The Force Awakens" and "Frozen", they don't have to worry about it. Such big productions don't have to worry about selling, and Dragon Head + Golden Harvest can basically sell them all over the world.
A week later, before the closing ceremony of Cannes, Wang Quan and Tian Xiaopeng Dumplings parted ways.
They found a way to return to China on their own, while Wang Quan returned to Los Angeles with his two assistants.
After resting at home for two days, Zhang Jingchu called.
The two met, and Zhang Jingchu reported her study status to Wang Quan.
Her whole mental outlook was a little new. She thought she would take off her clothes first after meeting, but instead she started chatting with herself about Hitchcock and Kubrick.
Later, she said, "But it's only a matter of paper. I want to find an internship with the crew, and it doesn't cost any money."
This was her purpose of looking for Wang Quan this time. Yu Feihong also looked for Wang Quan at the beginning.
Wang Quan readily agreed, and after finishing, he told her, "Long Toutou is preparing a movie. The director is Wu Shixian, and his wife is your senior sister Gong Beibi. The movie is "Super Body" and "The Witch". The sequel to the movie is called Lucy."
It sounds interesting to Zhang Jingchu that these two movies can be combined into a sequel, but there is indeed a guest appearance by Liu Yifei in "Super Body", and her name is the same as in "The Witch".
Wang Quan said: "The investment in this movie is as high as 70 million U.S. dollars. The heroines are Scarlett Johansson and Liu Yifei. Sissi will come over after she finishes filming "Zhu Xian". We have just started preparations now. You can follow from the beginning."
"Thank you so much!" Zhang Jingchu couldn't wait to contact the film's producer Ma Ling.
She has heard of Ma Ling's name. She has produced several niche and high-scoring movies, such as "The Man Is From Earth", "Source Code", "Ex Machina", etc.
He had already gone back in May, so Wang Quan did not continue to return to the country. He did not go back until June.
Before he went back, the news of Yang Mi's pregnancy had already spread. There was no choice but to give birth in more than two months, and it would be obvious just by showing her face.
But it doesn't matter, you will know sooner or later.
Wang Quan told Mimi, "The work on "The Force Awakens" is almost done. When I come back next month, I will not leave. I will stay with you until you give birth to the baby."
Mimi rubbed against Wang Quan lazily.
Wang Quan said: "Why don't you just rest."
Yang Mi raised the remote control and said, "Forget it, let's watch "Happy Camp" first. Reba is here, and I'll check out her sense of variety shows."
Reba was selected by her and sent to "Running Brothers". The variety show sense is very important.
"What did she do to get into the fast book?"
"Promoting "The Year in a Hurry", she is the second female lead."
As a result, this program not only has the crew of "The Year in a Hurry", but also an underage group called TFboys...
