You don't understand the happiness of the director

"Motherland, I'm back!"

After getting off the plane, Wang Quan opened his mouth and shouted. There was no friendly dust haze, nor the familiar dry cold air. Instead, it was a little damp, because this is not the capital at all!

Wang Quan, a famous Hollywood director. Although he is only 24 years old, he has already made eight films and won Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay. He is also ranked third in box office history, second only to Steven Spielberg and James Cameron, the three major European awards also regarded him as a guest.

As a Chinese, he earned huge fame and inexhaustible wealth in Europe and the United States, but he felt that he had reached a bottleneck in Hollywood and felt very empty, so he decided to return to China to develop and work hard to get a Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers or something.

This was the maiden flight of his private plane, destined for Beijing. At the Los Angeles Airport, he met two domestic actresses, Li Bingbing and Fan Bingbing, and invited them to accompany him.

However, due to the sudden heavy snowfall in the capital, Wang Quan's plane temporarily changed its itinerary and flew to the Magic City.

As for why he was diverted to the Magic City, it was only after Wang Quan invited Li Bingbing on the plane that he found out that his original destination was the Magic City.

But she said it didn't matter. She would transfer flights after arriving in Beijing and fly with Wang Quan in a private plane for more than ten hours. This was her dream.

But she didn't expect that not long after she was happy, another Bingbing also boarded the plane.

One Bingbing has meat to eat, while the two Bingbing stare at each other.

Wang Quan invited them just because he wanted to make the journey less boring and have endless fun traveling with beauty.

Indeed, for fourteen hours, Wang Quan didn't sleep at all. He chatted with them about poetry, songs, and life ideals, watched movies, and played games.

However, they were far less energetic than Wang Quan, so they rested for three hours in the bedroom on the plane respectively. During the three hours they rested, it was unclear what Wang Quan and the other Bingbing did.

When Wang Quan got off the plane and breathed fresh air, Li Bingbing got off with her luggage with the help of the stewardess. Because of this unexpected opportunity, her assistant bodyguard and dear sister Li Jie were sitting in another seat. I took a flight, and now I'm here. I just made contact and we're about to meet up.

Li Bingbing shook Wang Quan's hand generously, "Don't forget what you said. When the new movie starts, come to me for an audition. Don't secretly choose the heroine, otherwise I, I won't be able to spare you~"

When she said this, Sister Bingbing's face turned slightly red, feeling that she was a little presumptuous towards Director Wang.

During the three hours Fan Bingbing was resting, Wang Quan revealed his new movie plans to Li Bingbing, and he did not deny that she was his first choice for the heroine in his new movie.

This news made Li Bingbing almost choke with excitement. She quickly put down the food in her hands and asked Wang Quan if she should just push "Snowflake Secret Fan".

Wang Quan said it was not necessary. His new film will be released in the second half of the year, and Snow Flower and Secret Fan will be released in February. It will not have any impact, and it is not necessarily her. He just said that she is relatively high in the ranking, but there are still a few Actress Wang Quan also wants to give it a try.

Even though Wang Quan didn't say he would die, Li Bingbing was overjoyed and decided to prepare for this role in the next six months.

"By the way, director, are you going to live on the plane or find a hotel? It's not certain when the plane will fly to Beijing." Li Bingbing asked with concern.

There was everything on the plane, including food, drinks, entertainment, and he could even sing karaoke with Fan Bingbing.

However, Wang Quan was a little interested in what Li Bingbing was going to do when he came to the devil, "How about I go to the show with you."

Li Bingbing was invited by his alma mater this time to be the examiner for the final stage of the acting exam. Wang Quan went to university in the capital, and he always regretted why he had to take the show to the Magic City.

Li Bingbing did not expect that Wang Quan would take the initiative to make this request, so he naturally agreed and then glanced at the plane, "How about leaving Fan Bingbing to watch the plane?"

Fan Bingbing finally put on makeup on the plane and ran down quickly, her long hair flowing, black, long and straight, "Are you going to leave me behind?"

Wang Quan, "No, Sister Bingbing and I are going to go to the theater to have fun. Bingbing, why don't you stay on the plane and wait for me to come back and fly together?"

Fan Bingbing said, "No, I live in Shanghai. Let's fly together when we can fly. By the way, director, please remember my home address. Welcome to visit us."

During the three hours that Li Bingbing slept, Fan Bingbing and Wang Quan exchanged addresses in the Magic City and some saliva.

Then I was pleasantly surprised to find that they were in the same community, but Wang Quan said that it was not convenient for him to be a guest. Then Fan Bingbing warmly invited Wang Quan to her home and said that the bed at her home was very soft. It was very confusing. I was a guest. It matters whether the sofa is soft or not and whether the dining table is strong or not.

During those three hours, Fan Bingbing tried his best to get closer to Wang Quan, but Wang Quan couldn't bear her soft words and begged her, so he finally decided to just go in.

Wang Quan decided to let Chu Ling set up a new company to invest in Fan Bingbing's studio. On the surface, it was Chen Chuling, but in fact it was Wang Quan.

The income is not much, just 20%, but there is one condition: the company accountant must be appointed by him.

Fan Bingbing agreed after a minute of careful consideration. From now on, Wang Quan will be a shareholder of his own studio, and he will not have to take care of himself. For example, in his first Chinese-language film, the heroine himself is not yet available!

So the look she was looking at Li Bingbing at the moment was that of a condescending old woman. I will give you such an ordinary thing as "Snowflake Secret Fan". Mr. Fan, I deserve better!

Fan Ye is a new title she just won recently, in addition to Fan Hao Family.

In fact, Wang Quan does not want to make any money from Fan Bingbing. She is just a female star. How much can she earn, 700 million or 800 million? In Wang Quan's eyes, it's just small money. He just feels sorry for Fan Bingbing, a top-notch actress with good acting skills, and a sexy style that is rare among domestic actresses.

How boring it would be if there was no Fan Bingbing in domestic entertainment.

Wang Quan had contacted Sissi a long time ago and asked her not to pick her up at the airport. It was snowing heavily and he was not sure when he would be able to return to Beijing.

Li Cong had already arranged a car to pick up Li Bingbing and Wang Quan. When her sister suddenly left the team in Los Angeles, she was frightened. Later, she received a text message from Li Bingbing, which made her extremely happy.

It was eight o'clock in the morning, and Li Bingbing went directly to the theater. The art test was today.

Li Jie, who was dressed smartly and very good-looking, asked, "Director Quan, sister, do you want to take a rest? The seat of the chair is adjustable."

"Director Wang?" Li Bingbing looked at Wang Quan.

Wang Quan waved his hand and picked up the entertainment magazine in the car. He was in good spirits.

Li Bingbing said to his sister, "The director and I slept on the plane. I'm not sleepy."

Li Chong: Ah, is it so fast? My sister is so awesome!

Wang Quan: When did I fall asleep? Didn’t you fall asleep yourself?

He opened the magazine in the car, and the opening page was Maoyan's annual report on the film industry. Only a part of the magazine was cut out, and the entire content can only be viewed by downloading Maoyan.

This section is about the 2009 mainland box office rankings.

First of all, the total number is 8.7 billion. The mainland film market has finally begun to take shape, but it is still too small. Now Tengxun’s market value is 300 billion, and its annual profit is equivalent to several mainland box office markets. No wonder capital is still looking at it. Instead of focusing on the film market, they are more interested in the Internet and real estate.

Then the ranking from high to low, first, "Inception" 1.518 billion.

Even though "Avatar" was gaining momentum at the beginning of the year, one month has passed and the box office has not exceeded 1 billion. It is expected that it will be difficult to surpass "Inception", but the number of moviegoers is expected to exceed "Inception".

Half a year ago, there were not too many IMAX and 3D screens in the mainland, so the unit price was expensive. However, after half a year, the number of 3D screens surged and IMAX almost doubled. By the time of "Avatar", the price naturally dropped, and scalpers were effectively controlled. , there is no longer a grand spectacle of queuing up to buy tickets. As long as the box office of "Avatar" exceeds 1.3 billion, the number of moviegoers will surpass it.

Second place, very unexpectedly, "Twelve Zodiac Signs", 535 million, surpassed "The Founding of the People's Republic of China". Han Sanping depressedly asked Huang Hai, the poster designer of "The Sun Also Rises", to draw a poster to congratulate "Twelve Zodiac Signs" ” topped the box office list of Chinese-language films in the Mainland.

In fact, according to the momentum of "Zodiac", which is a 400 million-level film, especially when "Avatar" is sweeping the market, it may not even reach 400 million. However, something happened when Avatar was released at the beginning of the year. thing.

The "Twelve Zodiac" movie did well at the box office in France, and the head of the French Pinault family was a fan of Cheng Long. After watching the movie, he decided to buy the rat and rabbit heads that had been rejected before and donated them to China for free.

As soon as this news came out, "Zodiac" became more than just a movie. Its practical significance exceeded that of ordinary movies. It was as shocking as "The Orphan" when it helped the prototype find his son.

So "Zodiac" withstood the pressure of "Avatar", and the box office continued to rise steadily. In the end, it even knocked down the Chinese film champion that "The Founding of a Republic" had not yet secured.

Moreover, this movie performed brilliantly in the overseas market, surpassing the 216 million US dollars of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and becoming the highest-grossing Chinese film in the world. It currently has 250 million US dollars and is still growing. Cheng Long's career Completely rejuvenated.

The third place is the aforementioned "The Founding of the People's Republic of China". Relying on the temptation of low ticket prices and private theater reservations, it briefly topped the Chinese film championship with a box office of 513 million.

The fourth place was "2012" with 452 million, the fifth place was "Transformers 2" with 418 million, and the sixth place was "The Twilight Saga" with 405 million.

These three movies are all Hollywood blockbusters. Among them, King Power's "The Twilight Saga" has received more attention because it broke the box office record of "Titanic" in mainland film history. But who would have thought that it would be surpassed by five movies in succession? The mainland box office is so busy this year.

The seventh place "October Siege", 307 million, was released at the beginning of the year. I thought it would be a sure winner in the year, but it only ranked seventh.

The eighth place is Ning Hao's "Crazy Racing" with 255 million. Ning Hao never dreamed that his movie could get so much box office. This movie can earn tens of millions through the box office. It can be called a bloody profit, but the next What to make a movie and how to break through became difficult problems before him.

The ninth place is the once highly anticipated but now notorious "Red Cliff Part 2" with 247 million. The box office is not as high as the neon market.

Although the seed for the annual crown has dropped to ninth place, Director Yusen Wu was still pleased when he heard that the global box office of "Avatar" exceeded 2 billion U.S. dollars and easily won the 2009 box office crown. At least Wang Quan did not win the global box office crown. Guan, I still have the capital to be proud of. I think back then "Mission: Impossible 2" was...

Tenth place, "Slumdog Millionaire", 238 million, director Wang Quan has unprecedentedly had three works enter the top ten at the annual box office in one year!

I'm afraid he won't be able to do it himself in the future!

The reason why this movie has such a high box office is entirely due to the appeal of King Power and the attraction brought by sweeping the Oscars. If it were replaced by another director, it would definitely not have such an effect. This is the weakest commercial attribute among the top ten box office films. movie of.

In addition to the detailed introduction of the top ten, several Chinese-language films were also selectively introduced later.

For example, "The Wind", which was ranked 11th, counterattacked at the box office with its word-of-mouth reputation, and it was highlighted that Li Bingbing was awarded the Golden Horse Award.

The 13th-placed "Three Shots" has created the worst reputation for director Zhang Yimou.

No. 14 "Jinling!" Jinling! ", the first Golden Broom Awards were announced last month. These two films plus "The Tomb" were nominated for the Golden Broom Award for Best Picture. In addition, Zhang Yimou and Lu Chuan both won the Best Director Award, and the Best Actor and Best Actress were respectively Xiao Shen Yang and Lin Zhiling.

Of course, not a single winner went to this award ceremony.

No. 22, "The Invisible Guest" with a box office of 108 million was also highlighted. Long Toutou will start filming this year or next year, and the script is being adapted locally.

Wang Quan stayed on this article for a long time before turning the page. The news behind it was that because "Astro Boy" failed miserably at the box office, Xiangjiang Yima Animation announced its liquidation.

The tragedy of a movie that brought down a company happened again.

However, it is considered decent to go bankrupt like this. Enlight Media, which used to be the investor and distributor of Time and Space, also engaged in a farce of box office fraud. It released news that Astro Boy had a box office of 40 million in the first three days. In order to stimulate audience consumption, in fact, in the end The total box office is only over 40 million.

Enlight Media also wanted to do this this time, but it was a pity that Maoyan had just launched a box office data function at that time. The daily box office figures were clearly known. Wang Changtian had no choice but to give up in the end, watching the box office failure and losing all his investment. You must be cautious when investing in animated movies.

The next news is that the martial arts kung fu film "Su Qier" directed by Yuan Heping, starring Zhao Wenzhuo and Zhou Xun, and starring Jay Chou will be released soon, and will use 3D technology for the first time to show the dazzling martial arts action!

Wang Quan was delighted. The popularity was growing so fast that even Hollywood couldn't catch up. He was sure that "Inception" hadn't even been released when this movie was filmed. He took a look and saw that the whole movie was not in 3D, and only one of them, Zhao Wenzhuo, was in 3D. Part of the fight with Jay Chou had some converted 3D effects, so was it used as a 3D gimmick to sell money?

After looking at the production company, it was Xiangjiang Anle, oh, boss Jiang Zhiqiang Jiang, no wonder.

Boss Jiang still has some strength and good vision. He is behind "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Heroes" and "Lust, Caution", and he is able to enjoy the overseas market.

However, he is too strong in businessman attributes and lacks the basic moral integrity of some film workers. He has done many ridiculous things in order to make money.

While Wang Quan was watching, Li Cong touched her sister, pointed at the phone screen, and motioned her to read Weibo...

(Finally, please give me a monthly ticket! There is still one chapter left!)
