The domestic film market is turbulent in June, and the summer season is about to begin. In the last month, foreign blockbusters will be released together.

At the beginning of the month, DC's "Wonder Woman" was released simultaneously around the world. This powerful heroine who briefly appeared in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" finally received her own independent movie.

Gal Gadot, who plays Wonder Woman, became an instant hit. With her beautiful appearance and strong figure, she captured countless movie fans and became a new generation of Hollywood goddess.

Wonder Woman is the first female superhero with a main theme in the history of comics, and has become a representative figure of female superheroes, with a wide audience in the West.

Historically, Hollywood has also filmed many movies and TV series about Wonder Woman.

The new generation of Wonder Woman played by Gal Gadot is different from the image of previous actors with blond hair, big waves, big breasts and beautiful legs. In the new DC movie, the Wonder Woman she plays is innocent, beautiful, brave and sturdy. The appearance is exquisite and the figure is as strong as an ancient Greek sculpture.

Although she doesn't have blond hair and big breasts, her perfect face, slender figure and powerful battle scenes make her look sexy and explosive.

Due to the success of the casting and the relatively good story and special effects, [Wonder Woman] has received a super high box office of more than 800 million US dollars worldwide.

Unfortunately, this popular heroine in the Western world has a relatively small audience in China. The mainland box office is only 600 million yuan, which is not a big hit.

Also released at the same time as "Wonder Woman" was "The Mummy" starring Tom Cruise.

This movie is a reboot of the 1999 version of "The Mummy", putting new wine in old bottles.

Due to the success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in recent years, other Hollywood companies are very jealous.

DC has launched Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman to create its own DC movie universe.

Universal Pictures, which owns the copyrights of a large number of classic screen monsters such as Dracula, Frankenstein, and the Wolfman, also wants to integrate these monsters under its banners to create a dark movie universe.

And "The Mummy" starring Tom Cruise is the first work of the dark movie universe, similar to Marvel's "Iron Man".

To be honest, "The Mummy" was poorly made. Although it took in more than 600 million yuan at the domestic box office, which is comparable to "Wonder Woman", its global box office was only 400 million U.S. dollars, less than "Wonder Woman". half.

The filming cost of this film plus publicity and distribution cost Universal Pictures more than 300 million U.S. dollars, which can be said to be a huge expense.

The Dark Cinematic Universe plan was also aborted due to the unfavorable start of "The Mummy".

On June 23, [Transformers 5: The Last Knight] was released. It took in a high box office of 870 million in the first three days of the week, and the box office exceeded 300 million for two consecutive days.

On the 25th, the third day after the release of "Change 5", on Sunday, the premiere of "Rescue" was held in Beijing.

This sci-fi action film co-produced by [Jiaxing Media] and [Beijing Yaolai Film and Television] has been heavily promoted before its release. In addition to the creative team of [Reverse Time Rescue], Cheng Long also attended the premiere to cheer. .

Cheng Long is one of the investors of [Sparkle Roll Films]. His mainland management contract is also signed with Sparkle Roll. In recent years, he has filmed [The Lion], [Zodiac], [Revolution of 1911] and [Soldier]. "Little General" has the shadow of "Yolai Films" behind him.

[Reverse Time Rescue] The producer of this film is also served by Cheng Long.

"What are you looking at?" The premiere ceremony hadn't even started yet. Huo Jianhua looked a little strange as Yang Mi kept staring in the direction of the entrance.

"Gu Wei promised me to come over today to support him. It should be here by time." Yang Mi was concerned but confused. Gu Wei had clearly sent her a message when he set off.

"Hey, Gu Wei is coming too, Mi Mi is the one who has more respect for you.

He is very popular on the Internet recently. I can see news about him in Hong Kong Island. "Cheng Long's voice came from behind. He obviously heard what Yang Mi said.

"Yang Mi and Gu Wei have been old friends for many years. They have collaborated on several film and television works, and they are all very popular." Huo Jianhua said with a smile.

Since his marriage last year, his film and television resources have been cut off and he rarely appears in public. This film "Rescue" was filmed before his marriage.

Today, Huo Jianhua wore a gray suit with a white shirt underneath. He should have been very handsome based on his appearance, but for some reason he had shaved his head and was a little fat, giving him the greasy look of a middle-aged uncle.

It is hard to imagine that this is the "Painting of Changliu Shangxian Baizi" in [Flower Thousand Bones] two years ago.

However, Huo Jianhua, who appeared at the premiere today, was in good condition and kept laughing and chatting with Yang Mi and Cheng Long.

"I know this. At the beginning of the year on the [Ace vs. Ace] show, I competed with the [Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom] team led by Gu Wei and Mi Mi.

Your TV series was so well shot, my wife really enjoyed watching it."

Cheng Long wore a black suit and a pair of black-rimmed glasses today. Although he is 63 years old, he still looks energetic.

"Since Gu Wei can come today, why not invite him on stage to say a few words when the ceremony starts and help promote it?"

"That's not good. I didn't tell him in advance. Gu Wei didn't have any preparations. Let's just let him sit down below. He has already brought a lot of attention to our movie when he arrived at the scene today." Yang Mi said a little bit She refused awkwardly because she didn't want to make it difficult for Gu Wei because of the promotion of the movie.

It's not worth consuming her affection with Gu Wei because of this trivial matter, and even if the other party cheers for her, it may not be of much help to the movie.

"That's right~ I didn't agree in advance. It's really wrong to make such a sudden request."

Cheng Long also understood better. It was like a friend asking him to make a cameo in a movie and then he became the protagonist after filming. It was quite annoying.

The three people were chatting when there was a sudden noise outside the door of the premiere venue. Yang Mi looked up and saw Gu Wei, a slender man wearing casual clothes, walking in under the guidance of the staff.

"Brother, I'll pick him up first." Yang Mi turned around and said to the two people around him.

"Go quickly~" Cheng Long replied with a smile.

After Yang Mi left, Cheng Long and Huo Jianhua beside him sighed, "It's great to be young."

Huo Jianhua nodded sympathetically. He felt that he was young too, but things were different now. It was no longer the same year!

"How did you get here?" Yang Mi walked up to Gu Wei and complained a little. According to the time when she received the message, it shouldn't be so late.

"It's the weekend and there's a traffic jam on the road. Fortunately, it's not too late." Gu Wei shrugged and looked Yang Mi up and down.

Today she wore a black and white plaid skirt, which reached just above her knees and was of moderate length. She wore a pair of high-heeled sandals, revealing her little feet painted with bright red nail polish. Her long wavy hair was loose, her bust was high and her waist was nipped in. Slim and looks full of charm.

"Sister Mi is so beautiful today!"

"You are the only one who can speak, and you have always been so sweet-mouthed after all these years of knowing her~" Yang Mi raised the corners of her mouth slightly when she heard Gu Wei's compliment.

"The reporters outside didn't make things difficult for you, right?"

"Fortunately, the staff are quite helpful. I came in directly and ignored them."

"Aren't you afraid that they will report that you are acting like a celebrity?"

"It's just not accepting an interview. It's not the first time," Gu Wei said nonchalantly.

"Brother Cheng Long is also here today, as well as Brother Hua, whom I told you before. I will take you there, just in time to introduce you to each other." Yang Mi then led Gu Wei to the other side of the venue.

Cheng Long and Gu Wei were relatively familiar with each other. They had only interacted with each other before when they were on "Ace". He really didn't know Huo Jianhua. They had only met each other at award ceremonies in recent years and had never communicated with each other.

He followed Yang Mi here, greeted Cheng Long, and formally met Huo Jianhua.

Maybe it was because they weren't familiar with each other, Huo Jianhua didn't talk much, Cheng Long took Gu Weixuan to chat, and Yang Mi intervened from time to time. He was the only one who didn't talk much and just stood there smiling.

"Every time I see you, I feel really old." After chatting for a while, Cheng Long patted Gu Wei's arm with emotion.

His official height is 174cm, and given his age, he has to tilt his head slightly when chatting with Gu Wei, who is 185cm tall.

But the eldest brother is full of aura. Even if he is short in stature, he is definitely the focus of everyone as long as he stands there.

"There's no such thing as getting older. Brother's spirit is not comparable to that of many young people." Cheng Long is over 60 and still maintains the frequency of at least one movie every year. He is really working hard. Gu Wei thinks that he has reached this age, although His health is not worse than that of Cheng Long, but he certainly doesn't have as much professionalism as him.

Cheng Long shook his head.

"People can't accept old age, and I didn't accept it before. I want to fight for another 20 years.

But when I get older, I realize that time is not forgiving and many things cannot be changed by humans.

Forget about this, I have a movie to be released during the National Day holiday in the second half of the year. If you have time, come and watch the premiere? "Cheng Long sighed and then extended an invitation to Gu Wei.

"Is it the movie [The Battle of England]? No problem, I'll be there when I have time!" Gu Wei guessed what Cheng Long's movie was after just a moment's thought.

This film is one of the rare high-quality films made by Cheng Long in recent years. The plot is somewhat similar to "Hurricane Rescue". Although the eldest brother is old, he can still fight.
