The Pope of Basketball Community

Several important actors have been decided, most of whom are new faces and don't need money, which can reduce the cost of the film. The only one who is somewhat famous is Michelle Rodriguez, who plays the female mercenary. She just filmed "The Fast and the Furious" not long ago.

In the original movie, Michelle also played the second female role, a "pure man" who steals the limelight. Her image fits the role, with a masculine face, unusual eyes, and a habit of rolling her eyes, which is beyond cure.

This eye-rolling skill makes her look more manly. Coupled with the deltoid muscles and biceps developed through fitness, she can play this role well without any acting skills.

In Yang Rui's impression, Michelle didn't look like a woman in reality. In her previous life in 2003, she was charged with drunk driving, driving without a license, and leaving after a car accident. She was sentenced to three years of probation. However, she did not repent and committed drunk driving again in 2005. The probation period was extended to 2009, and she had to fulfill her duties. Community service, but she continued to drive drunk and even refused to complete the service order. In addition, she ignored the breathalyser on her foot and illegally drank alcohol three times. The judge was furious and decided to sentence her to half a year in prison as a severe punishment.

Therefore, Yang Rui told Stana to stay away from such people, especially not to be taken advantage of by Michelle, who is still a lesbian.

None of the characters in this movie are the protagonists of the game, so you don’t have to worry about being scolded by game fans and see the reaction. If there are suggestions from the audience that they want to see game characters, they can be included in the next sequel.

The story does not use any special effects except for a few monsters, and there will be no heavy weapons like rocket launchers in the game. Stana's salary will be paid after the release, which is much cheaper than Mira. The final investment is expected to be 26 million to 30 million US dollars.

Among them, Yang Rui himself invested 15 million, almost all of his net worth, and Jennifer Aniston invested the rest and also served as a producer.

The couple both like zombie movies, and Pitt also starred in a movie called "World War Z" that did well at the box office in the future. Although it didn't get a good reputation, he still made money.

Of course, they will not star in the film. Movies adapted from game games rarely make a lot of money. The advantage of "Resident Evil" is that the name can attract many people without too much publicity.

Usually the ones that lose money are big-budget movies, where the investment is too high. Once the filming goes bad, the movie goes out of business. The investment for "Resident Evil" is so low, even if it has a mediocre reputation, it is possible to break even if it enters theaters just by relying on the movie box office, and with the DVD release it will be a sure profit, so Jennifer is willing to invest.

Yang Rui knows how failed the plot of this series of movies was in his previous life. Except for episodes 1 and 2, there is simply no way to watch the rest. This way, he can film the sixth one, with a cumulative box office of over 1 billion US dollars, and there is no pressure.

After analyzing the situation, Stana was not so nervous. She felt moved that Yang Rui was a rich man compared with ordinary people.

But it seems that there is insufficient funds to invest in making a movie to praise her.

After Scarlett Johansson learned that Yang Rui was going to invest in the movie, she asked if she could be given a role.

Yang Rui wants to help, but he really can't think of any important character who is Xiao Pang Dun. Even the artificial intelligence "Red Queen" Scarlett is not suitable. After all, that's not a heavy AI.

After Yang Rui explained that the characters in the script were not only mercenaries but also zombies, Scarlett gave up. She couldn't play a zombie chasing Stana and biting her, right?

The movie is scheduled to start shooting in March, but Yang Rui cannot be there to watch it. He believes that Matthew Vaughn, who advocates violent aesthetics, will not disappoint. Even if Matthew encounters a bottleneck and can no longer shoot, he still has his good friend Guy Ritchie to help. The two of them can communicate with each other using minions, which is like having an extra super assistant.

Yang Rui's wishful thinking was very clear. He hired a new director and developed a strong network of contacts. Guy Ritchie's wife is the famous Madonna. Since the two got married, he has been staying in the United States. There is no reason why he can't help his gay friend make a name for himself in the director circle.

Guy Ritchie made some suggestions and added his stuff in terms of shooting techniques, and Yang Rui and others made a lot of money.

The star weekend passed quickly, and both games were exciting.

The rookie game gradually turned into an exhibition game, filled with alley-oops and dunks. The first-year team lost 113 to 121.

The Timberwolves' second-year rookie Szczerbiak made 11 of 13 shots, 5 of 8 three-pointers, scored 27 points and 8 rebounds, and won the MVP. Francis scored 20 points and Marion scored 18 points.

Quentin Richardson of the first-year team scored a team-high 20 points and 14 rebounds. Reed could hardly receive passes from the outside. The first-year player always wanted to hit the basket and dunk. Mark Jackson performed well, scoring a double-double with 16 points and 11 rebounds.

In the three-point contest, Ray Allen made 9 of 10 shots from the last two shooting spots in the final, narrowly defeating Peja Stojakovic and Nowitzki to win the championship.

In the dunk contest, Desmond Mason scored a record-low 89 points in the finals and still defeated DeShawn Stevenson and Baron Davis to win the championship. Without Carter's dunk contest, fans find it very unsatisfactory.

The 2001 All-Star Game was a bit surprising. Under the leadership of Iverson, the Eastern Conference team achieved a great comeback in the last quarter and won a thrilling 111-110 victory. In the last nine minutes of the game, they were still 21 points behind.

This is extremely bad news for O'Neal. There has never been an All-Star Game like the Finals, and there has never been such a reversal.

Iverson scored 15 points in the fourth quarter and finished the game with 25 points, 5 assists and 4 steals. He won the All-Star Game MVP title amidst the cheers of the audience, and his popularity became even higher.

After the game, he said excitedly: "Everyone said we won't win because we are too short, but this has nothing to do with height. It depends on whether your heart is proportional to your height. In the fourth quarter, we were saying, why? Can’t come back and win the All-Star Game?”

This season, Iverson is one of O'Neal's main opponents competing for the regular season MVP. The opponent has unlimited glory, but O'Neal can only be a spectator on the sidelines due to injuries.

Yang Rui didn't watch the game, but just watched the news. He created a lot of butterfly effects. If this continues, O'Neal may become the unluckiest superstar.

In his previous life, O'Neal only had one regular season MVP and three Finals MVPs in his career. If not for the Raptors' record-breaking championship last season, O'Neal would have won two MVPs.

Having missed that opportunity in 2000, if the Lakers don't get the best record in the regular season in the future, Yang Rui doubts that O'Neal can still win the regular season MVP?

Iverson's voice is too high, and Tim Duncan's Spurs' record is still firmly suppressing the Lakers.

This season is difficult, and it will be even more difficult in the future. O'Neal is likely to be the only one among the four major centers who has not won this award.

In Yang Rui's previous life, despite O'Neal's poor free throw shooting, he was considered by many to be the most dominant center. It would be great fun if he did not have the personal honor of the best player. I wonder if O'Neal will be able to laugh in the future and entertain the public at the All-Star Game.

O'Neal is unlucky enough. According to the original history, the Lakers should have renewed his contract with him for three years in advance for $88.5 million after the Lakers won the championship in 2000. This was also the largest contract the Lakers could provide. In this way, O'Neal, who still has a three-year contract, will earn US$152 million in six years. The 2005-2006 season will still be a player option, becoming an out-and-out money printing machine.

Now, neither party has any intention to renew the contract. O'Neal's contract will expire in 2003, and some changes are likely to occur.
