"What kind of man is Duke Rosenberg?"

With the help of the duke studio staff, the cameraman was busy setting up the camera and the spotlight. Gao Fangfang had nothing to do for the time being. Sitting in the reception room, he naturally thought of this problem and took out a pen from his bag. And a small notebook, there are a lot of information she collected on it, although these are all things on the surface, but they can also reflect some of Duke Rosenberg's real situation.

As a woman with a relatively strong gossip mind, the first thing Gao Fangfang thinks of is the love life of the other party.

In the country where she lives, there are many rumors on the Internet, all about Duke Rosenberg's gossip scandal, Naomi Watts, Charlize Theron and Catherine Zeta Jones, etc. Many superstars are his ex-girlfriends, and some people even swear that all Hollywood superstars who were active in the mid-to-late 90s and the turn of the century have an indistinct relationship with him.

Whether these rumors are true, Gao Fangfang is not clear, but judging from the many posters and images hanging in the Duke's studio, it seems that Duke Rosenberg attaches great importance to his current girlfriend Scarlett Johansson.

She knows that no one in Hollywood or North America will make irresponsible remarks about this relationship, but where she came from, many people say that this is an unlucky relationship, especially Scarlett Johansson's die-hard fans And admirers, cursed Duke Rosenberg for seducing his godsister in disgraceful means...

Is this the truth?Originally, Gao Fangfang had prepared questions in this regard, but when he communicated with Duke Rosenberg's PR manager, he was directly rejected by the other party.

Although there is a national TV station on the other side of the ocean, Gao Fangfang is also very clear that no matter what he does, he must follow certain rules. This is not a world where one can act recklessly.

Shake your head.Gao Fangfang temporarily put these unreliable questions aside.

After all, Duke Rosenberg's other issues are more attractive.

Gao Fangfang looked through the information he collected again, and the figure of 175 billion US dollars was quite eye-catching.

This is the total box office of all the films directed by Duke Rosenberg according to Gao Fangfang's own statistics. Although some data in China are not complete, the figure of 175 billion US dollars may not be very accurate.But Gao Fangfang confirmed that there will not be much difference.

170 billion dollars!What an astonishing number!Even the total box office generated since the marketization of Chinese films is far less than this figure.

And this is only achieved by Duke Rosenberg alone!

Thinking of the "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" that Duke Rosenberg is currently producing, Gao Fangfang knows that next year this figure will have a huge jump, and it is not impossible to exceed the $200 billion mark.

The first $20 billion director in history?Thinking of this, Gao Fangfang couldn't help feeling dizzy, which made the other directors feel embarrassed.How to let them catch up?

In this respect, Duke Rosenberg is definitely the best and greatest director since the birth of the film.

20 billion US dollars is quite astonishing, but when Gao Fangfang saw Duke Rosenberg's identity as a director, he felt that this figure was not so amazing.

Although they are all classified as representatives of technical directors, Duke Rosenberg is completely different from James Cameron.More like George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, in addition to being a director, he's also a businessman.

"Picking up the camera is the greatest director..." Gao Fangfang couldn't help murmuring, "Putting down the camera is a successful businessman."

Shareholders of Apple Inc.Time Warner's largest shareholder, Google's largest shareholder.The controlling shareholder of Marvel Comics, the owner of Lucasfilm...

Gao Fangfang didn't know how many shares of well-known companies Duke Rosenberg had, but she only knew.On the Forbes list of the world's richest people in the past few years, the other party has firmly ranked in the top five.

And many economic media believe that he may have more wealth hidden under the water.

In addition, Duke Rosenberg is also a well-known philanthropist. He has several charitable foundations under his name, and cooperates with the United Nations Rescue Agency and UNICEF. He invests hundreds of millions of dollars in charity every year. Dollar.

Gao Fangfang couldn't find the right words to describe the achievements of such a person, and being able to interview such a legendary figure made her feel that the opportunity was rare.

Someone knocked on the door of the reception room again, and Tina Fei, who was receiving her, came in again, but this time it was different. Behind Tina Fei was a man who looked about 30 years old.

This person has a tough face, extremely bright black eyes, short dark brown hair standing on end, and a tall, thin but straight figure.

Gao Fangfang knew just by looking at his appearance that this must be a man with a firm will.

Anyone who pays a little attention to the film industry and the economic media will know this man. He is the famous Duke Rosenberg. In the eyes and hearts of many people, he is a figure whose magic and greatness cannot be described.

Seeing Duke for the first time, Gao Fangfang stood up unconsciously.

"Duke..." Tina Fei took the initiative to introduce, "This is Miss Gao, a reporter from China National Television."

"Hello," Duke offered his hand, "Nice to meet you."

"Hello, Director Rosenberg." Gao Fangfang quickly shook Duke's hand, "It's nice to meet you, too."

Tina Fey returned and closed the door of the reception room, and an interview to build momentum for the tour of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" in Chinese theaters began.

As in the past, Duke always spared no effort in promoting the film. He never thought that his famous director's film should be successful. , There will not be so many large-scale production movies with high input and low output in this world.

Sitting on two single sofas facing each other in front of the camera lens, Gao Fangfang knew that Duke was short on time, so without any nonsense, he asked the first question directly, "Director Rosenberg, when did you first think of opening the A whole new chapter in Star Wars?"

"It was actually George Lucas, the one who invited me to be part of the series, the one who first proposed to make a new Star Wars movie."

Duke showed a look of reminiscence, "Probably in the mid-90s of last century, George Lucas invited me to direct this series. That was the first time we officially talked about this issue. I was very excited, just because of the schedule. The problem was missed, and now this project is full of possibilities, an opportunity that I would never say no to."

Gao Fangfang quickly scratched on the notebook with a pen, and asked, "How do you deal with the coexistence of old and new characters in the film?"

"The Star Wars series has left behind many classic characters. While we introduce new characters, familiar characters are also continued in a new generation of characters. Audiences don't need to watch the first six films to enjoy this movie. They can learn from it. This movie entry, "The Force Awakens" is the beginning of Star Wars in China and around the world."

Speaking of China, Duke deliberately added a paragraph, "Last night before I went to sleep, I was thinking that in many ways this movie is very similar to Shanghai, where the premiere of "The Force Awakens" was held in China. I have been there many times. , it's an incredible city, you're always amazed by its grandeur and energy, and it's got a wonderful history, but it's very vibrant, very trendy. So in a way, in line with the movie, it's The movie is a new story, but it's set in a world that's been around for a long time."

Hearing these words, Gao Fangfang couldn't help laughing. The opposite director's friendliness to China is widely spread across the Pacific Ocean, which is one of the important reasons why he and his films continue to achieve great success in his own country.

From this aspect, Gao Fangfang, like many movie fans in his own country, likes Duke Rosenberg very much.

However, as a professional media reporter, she will not let these affect her work too much, and continue to ask the questions that have been prepared in advance, "Daisy Ridley and Daniel Wu are the main players in the "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" New characters, what is so special about the two of them that attracts you and makes you give them such a key role?"

Compared with the vague words when dealing with the Western media, what Duke said now is more detailed.

"There are a lot of factors. When we started discussing the story content of the film that we were going to make this time, the biggest problem was how to narrow the scope of our story, because the world of "Star Wars" is so vast, there is potential to explore There's so much — and there's nowhere to start, where do we start?"

Duke spread his hands, smiling sunny and friendly, "We started to ask ourselves what attracts us, sat together, and said what we wanted to see the most."

After the female reporter on the opposite side finished recording, Duke said again, "My deputy, Anna Prinz, suddenly asked me, 'Who is Luke Skywalker?' This suddenly stimulated my nerves, and I suddenly realized that, There may be a new generation of viewers who don't know Luke Skywalker at all. Even if they do, how do they know? What do they think of Luke? Is he a hero or a character who should be feared? How do people Looking at Lord Black? Who was there when he rescued his son and took off his mask? It was just the two of them, so how did others know this? Everyone's perception of Luke? Skywalker, maybe Not what you expected."

The spotlight was a bit harsh, but Duke was used to this kind of interview, "I think this idea is both shocking and exciting-for a new generation of audiences, "Star Wars" may mean different things. So in the selection When it comes to roles, we have to cast actors who can feel and express that feeling, and when they play the right role, they can give the right performance."

"Daisy Ridley and Daniel Wu are exactly the kind of actors we need!" (to be continued~^~)
