Chinese entertainment for engineering students

"I told Jiahe and asked them to make arrangements for Zheng Yijian. There are still three people left in the team. I plan to change it to five. Anyway, there are no lines. It doesn't matter how many characters show their faces.

And as for the prophet, I still prefer to find a black person to film it. Robert Shaye said that we can actually find a singer. There are so many singers in our film. It would be a good gimmick to make him a musician and make a movie.

I think it's okay. Do you have any friends in Chou Country? "Wang Xu stroked Wang Fei's smooth skin and scratched it twice from time to time. The warm fragrance of nephrite made people linger.

Wang Fei's skin was still slightly red, and her breath was not so even. It was obvious that they had done something else.

"You little hooligan, you are always like this. I can't talk to you." Wang Fei angrily raised her weak arm and hit Wang Xu, but Wang Xu hugged her tighter.

"Who makes you so charming?" Wang Xu said with a smile on his face. Nowadays, the young couple has nothing to be embarrassed to say.

"Come on, you're making me crazy again. It's not like I've never seen you holding my hand and looking at my long legs." Wang Fei laughed.

"Hey, I didn't look randomly, I looked normally." Wang Xu laughed.

"I've given up looking at handsome guys, so you come less often. Isn't it enough to look at me?" Wang Fei was also a little embarrassed. She actually liked looking at handsome guys more.

"You just quit in front of me. I can hear your girlfriends gossiping about the handsome guy from a few rooms away." Wang Xu chuckled, teasing the woman in his arms.

"Ah, you actually eavesdropped. No, no, no, your ears are simply cheating. You have to stay away from me in the future." Wang Fei twisted her body and acted coquettishly in Wang Xu's arms.

The young couple interacted and joked for a while, and gradually became quiet. Wang Xucai changed the topic again.

"I have a good relationship with Whitney and Jenny. I'll call her tomorrow and ask her if she's interested." Wang Fei thought for a while and said.

"Whitney Houston? Janet Jackson? You really care about our movie." Wang Xu was surprised. Wang Xu only knew that Wang Fei met Whitney and Janet when she went to the Grammys. Last year, Whitney Ni won the best player of the year.

Whitney Houston and Janet Jackson are both one of the most expensive actresses in the country, or two of the four queens in the country. Unless they have a particularly good relationship, it is really impossible for these two to appear in China. in the film.

“Well, Whitney is in trouble. I called her a few days ago and her husband beat her.

I advised her to come to the Imperial Capital to stay away from that scumbag. It would be a good excuse to make a movie.

And Jenny has also said that she wants to make a movie, but she hasn't done one yet. "Wang Fei briefly explained the situation.

Wang Fei obviously underestimated the seriousness of this matter. Whitney is not as simple as domestic violence. She should be infected with that thing. That thing can be very troublesome. If it is soft, there is still hope. If it is hard, it can be saved. , this person is basically hopeless.

Moreover, this person is very troublesome. Her husband is a scumbag, but she still managed to get a divorce. It was not until many years later that she got divorced. It can only be said that this person also has problems of her own.

Although Wang Xu has some old skills that can be slowly recuperated, this kind of thing really depends on herself. Unless she thinks about it, she will never be able to leave it. When she goes back to that environment, she will still be the same ghost.

Wang Xu has a lot of reports here. If nothing else, he has a good ear and can hear what people are doing from a long distance away. He hangs out in bars every day. If he sees someone, it's just a matter of calling an old acquaintance.

He is a serious Chaoyang person. Although his address is considered Dongcheng, this place happens to be the boundary between Dongcheng and Chaoyang. You can reach Chaoyang within a short stroll, so there is nothing wrong with being a Chaoyang person.

Anyway, at least there have been a lot less of this kind of thing in the music industry recently. Recently, Xia Shi and the department in charge of this are filming a large-scale documentary about this aspect, and they are also looking for a theme song.

Wang Xu had seen this movie in his previous life, and there were more than just this. If we were to say which police force in China had the highest casualties, it could be said that it was them. He and Wang Fei sang a song called "The Lonely Warrior" and sent it up to the heroes who truly fought in the darkness.

But those two are from the Ugly Country, and they really don't care. It's a country that started from the very beginning. If you expect them to sincerely solve this problem, then it's just a fool's errand.

Every time Wang Fei goes abroad, Wang Xu has to give her instructions for a long time. The people over there are proud of this, and so are many of the Chinese people who play art, and rock music is the hardest hit area.

As the leader of this group, Wang Xu often tells people familiar and unfamiliar at various gatherings not to use stupidity as a personality, let alone use that kind of thing as fashion.

Not to mention it was heart-breaking, but it was definitely a very caring one. Wang Fei didn't know those two very well, but Wang Xu knew a lot about them. Judging from the timeline, they should still be saved at this time, but whether they can be saved or not depends on the relationship between Wang Fei and them.

"You have a good relationship with them?" Wang Xu rarely became serious. This matter was different from others. Whitney's matter was not as simple as domestic violence.

"Well, it's good. I also taught them how to play mahjong." Wang Fei smiled with a proud look on her face. Come on, this girl, anyone who can play mahjong together is a good friend.

"Okay, then you call and ask, don't force it. This kind of thing depends on the intention of the person involved. If the couple is flirting, you will be a bad person if you interfere." Wang Xu still gave a few more instructions.

In fact, if this thing can really happen, it will definitely help this film a lot. Whitney's "Bodyguard" became popular all over the world, and she was the lead singer of the national anthem at the Super Bowl last year. It is said that the version of the national anthem she sang has been popular in dozens of countries. Years later, he was still deeply missed by Mr. Wang.

"Only you know better. You know everything, you little hooligan." Wang Fei's face turned red. She must have misunderstood.

"Well, okay." Wang Xu understood instantly. Isn't this the activation command? So what are you waiting for? The sage's time has passed. It's up to you to start the war. It's not up to you when it ends.

…

Well, my childhood is so interesting, and my sister is still very fun.

However, a few days later, Wang Xu was convinced that Whitney actually planned to bring her infant baby to China. The reason was not very clear to Wang Fei.

She just called Whitney, had a little chat, and then she started crying. Then Wang Fei said, how about you come to my place and help me make a movie.

Although China is not as advanced as Chou Country, and it may not be as convenient, it is better because there are not so many messy things there, and your rotten husband can't find you even if he wants to find you. It is a good place to hide and be quiet.

Well, Wang Fei directly arranged a title for her husband according to the traditional Chinese bestie skills. This method of communication is actually quite abrupt in Chou Country, and is not very harmonious with the daily culture of Chou Country.

But I don’t know why, Whitney actually agreed. Wang Xu was very confused, and Wang Fei was the same, but no matter what, she just agreed. Maybe the only one who knows the answer is herself.

The reason is not important, as long as the problem can be solved. As for the subsequent business, just leave it to Robert Shaye. This is what the producer should do.

When Robert Shaye heard the news, it could be said that he was pleasantly surprised. Since she had this idea, she could talk about it. This was not adding insult to injury, it could only be said to be taking advantage of the trend.

However, as a singer, no matter how high the salary for acting in a movie is, it will not be much higher. The core interest of the singer is still in her songs.

When she filmed "The Bodyguard", her salary was only one million. Although the film was a hit, she was serving as the heroine and a supporting actress. There were so many singers in this film, and in the end, they could all make a lot of money just from their music. The bowl is full.

From this point of view, it is difficult for this film to lose money.

Come on, the music in it needs to be carefully thought out and made well. Whether it is a passionate battle or a sensational sacrifice, there is still no problem in having three or four songs.

Of course Wang Xu was aware of Whitney's net worth. A few years later, she starred as the heroine with a salary of US$10 million, becoming the highest-paid actress in the world at that time.

These can only be discussed by Robert Shaye himself. Wang Xu actually likes Whitney very much. Although there are some differences between her and the image of the prophet in the original "The Matrix", Wang Xu's version of the prophet is not so particular. .

Because in the Chinese people's perception, a prophet is a fortune teller, and it has nothing to do with words like wisdom.

Therefore, the prophet in Wang Xu's version is actually a black female image who looks a bit loud, loves to show off, and is a bit flamboyant, but is soft, kind-hearted, and knows many secrets. Even the age is very random, just use whatever actors you find, there are no special requirements at all.

It is precisely because of this that Robert Shaye proposed to use a singer to perform the role. After all, this is not a difficult role and does not require any special acting skills. He even felt that Wang Xu's design of this role as a black man was quite accurate. , which is in line with the basic personality of black people in this era.

In fact, Whoopi Goldberg was originally Robert Shaye's first choice, but this man is now very famous and at the peak of his career. It is unlikely that he will play a small supporting role, and the salary requirement is at least 2 million, which is a bit excessive.

And Whitney has already talked about it. Now when talking about cooperating with ugly actors, the hardest thing is actually not the salary, but the filming itself in China.

In this era, the Ugly Kingdom has an extremely contradictory depiction of China. It was still in the honeymoon period in the past few years, and it said a lot of good things. Even if it wants to turn around now, it is not completely late.

When all kinds of propaganda reach the people at the bottom, it will be a mess, coupled with poverty, so think about it, are you willing to go to a poor, backward, and chaotic place to film?

John had done a lot of work both at Golden Harvest and New Line. In addition, he was at a low point and was surrounded by all kinds of negative news before he finally got it done.

No other actor with any reputation would be willing to take this risk and come to China to film.

And since Whitney is willing to come to China, most of the problems have been solved. Things like remuneration and copyright distribution plans have become minor problems. With Robert Shaye's professionalism, they can be solved. question.

The problem was left to Robert Shaye, and Wang Xu naturally arranged various real shooting matters with peace of mind. The set-up of the crew was solved by the producer, and the director's main job was naturally the various storyboards and scenes.

These are all trivial matters. Wang Xu has already done this. The general story has been arranged. He has also arranged some scenes that are not in the original version and appear based on inspiration. There is always more material and more work. It’s better to try, otherwise you won’t even be able to edit in the end.

Within a few days, Robert Shaye settled the matter. Whitney appeared as a friendly star and was paid 1 million for the film. It was announced that it was a project created by a group of singers. By the way, we worked with Whitney's record company, PolyGram and other companies to secure the copyright contract for the film's soundtrack.

The relationship was very complicated, and all kinds of copyrights, dividends, shares, etc. were a mess, but Robert Shaye quickly handled them all with ease. This kind of professionalism really amazed Wang Xu.

It also made several young people who studied with him finally understand how good producers work, and they devoted themselves harder and harder to their work. This kind of opportunity to learn from him is really unique in China.

As for Wang Xu, he has to go to the northwest to take in the scenery. This is no joke. Xi'an is similar to an oasis in the northwest desert in the setting, which is the remaining civilization after the end of the world.

Wang Xu did not use a shady setting that lacked logic. In order to depict the end of the world, large-scale droughts, desolate deserts, and sandstorms that blocked the sky and the sun had to be arranged.

This is originally a common doomsday routine in later science fiction films. The core of this film is not the end of the world, but the enslavement of human beings by artificial intelligence, and human beings’ thinking about what is real.

Therefore, for the setting of this doomsday part, just follow the routine and be lazy.

Xi'an is naturally a large-scale refuge built on water sources. And this feeling of desolation can only be shocked by real shots. Fortunately, China really has everything in this kind of landform, so there is no need to search all over the world.

Moreover, Xu Ke is very familiar with this place. He filmed "New Longmen Inn" in the ancient city of Dunhuang in Gansu Province, which can be said to be a classic of its generation.

Wang Wook didn't need to shoot many scenes here, mainly the scene at the end of the film where Cui Young rides a flying motorcycle while carrying Wang Wook's body. But Wang Xu had never been there, so he wanted to take his wife with him to have a look and have some fun.

Looking back at the beginning of next year, when everyone has arrived, we will be at a loss for what to do and have no time to play.

Taking advantage of the last bit of free time before the holiday, many of the equipment and technologies needed for movies are in the sprint stage of research and development. Wang Xu and Wang Fei have nothing to do, so they shouldn't hurry up.
