This actor just wants to verify

Chapter 1033 "Manchester by the Sea" is released

Many people who have watched "Inception" have a question, that is, why there are so many Asians in this movie.

For example, the Japanese who hired the protagonist team.

Someone in the know immediately came out to explain that this is Ken Watanabe.

For example, the beautiful Asian stewardess with stunning appearance.

There is no shortage of people in the know who came out to popularize science, this is the famous Chinese actress Crystal Liu——An Xiaoxi.

She is the top one in China who takes the pure route, but I didn't expect that she would start to show such a charming style after marriage.

[I hope readers will remember our domain name Taiwan Novel Network→𝘵𝘸𝘬𝘢𝘯.𝘤𝘰𝘮]

The stewardess uniform is really pure and sexy on her.

Under the urging of many fans, the film company specially made a poster of An Xiaoxi in "Inception", which was sold out within a few days of being put on the shelves.

Many people changed their mobile phone screensavers to An Xiaoxi.

Different cultures have different aesthetics, but some things are indeed common.

As for Hao Yun, he is an old acquaintance.

In the past two years, Hao Yun has been a celebrity in Hollywood.

In particular, last year's "Source Code" won a box office of 152 million US dollars in North America, becoming a classic in science fiction movies, and accumulated a lot of movie fans for him.

In addition to his already active music fans, Hao Yun is only slightly worse than Leonardo in the cast of "Source Code".

What surprised Hollywood moviegoers is that Hao Yun is not only a talented man, but also has good skills.

His fighting in "Inception" is very beautiful.

Everyone called it Chinese Kung Fu!

Could it be that the rumor that "every Chinese person knows Kung Fu" is actually true?

Some people also think that the recently popular "The Expendables" should really invite this young and handsome Chinese actor to join.

After all, the people in "The Expendables" are fierce, but they are older than each other.

Ordinary people at their age can't walk steadily and may wet their pants when sleeping. It's too disrespectful to ask them to save the world.

No matter how many movies Hao Yun has directed, it's actually irrelevant to most ordinary people. Not many people care who the director of "Source Code" is.

Ordinary people just watch movies, buy tickets to watch, and then go to get a room.

Just like eating, very few people care about the chef's situation.

However, "Inception" is different. This annual blockbuster with a box office of nearly 300 million US dollars in North America made Hao Yun a household name all of a sudden.

Moreover, his character is very likable.

Handsome and agile, he is the most reliable assistant and friend of the protagonist.

Who doesn't want to have such a friend?

Therefore, Hao Yun will have a new movie released soon, which has attracted a lot of attention.

I really want to see what new heights this handsome guy can reach in the new movie.

It would be best if there were more fighting scenes.

Just like in Hong Kong movies, they rushed forward with two guns, and when they ran out of bullets, they fought ten people with bare hands.

This expectation is very valuable.

Paramount and FC Films jointly released "Manchester by the Sea", but they actually had no idea where to start.

The director didn't come.

The screenwriter didn't come.

Even the male lead was absent from the promotion.

What kind of promotion is this!

However, God seemed to be helping Hao Yun. "Inception" gave Hao Yun a lot of popularity, and this popularity happened to be able to be transferred to the next movie.

Therefore, "Manchester by the Sea" received a lot of attention before it was released.

In the audience expectation rankings of some websites, it can even be ranked in the top three.

It is also expected to be released in North America in November, including "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" and "Resident Evil 4: Resurrection".

"Manchester by the Sea" has chosen a good schedule.

This year's blockbusters such as "Iron Man 2" and "Inception" have already been released.

Some of them are scheduled for November and December.

The next competitors are mainly "The Expendables", which has only aftershocks, "American Citizen", starring George Clooney, which will be released on September 1, and "Broadchurch", starring Ben Affleck, which will be released on September 10.

None of them are well-made blockbusters.

Movie fans are looking forward to "Manchester by the Sea" because they really have nothing to look forward to.

Hao Yun is not worried about "Manchester by the Sea" at all.

Or he simply does not have much box office expectations for "Manchester by the Sea".

Even if it loses money, it won't be much, after all, the cost is only 8 million US dollars.

The main purpose of this movie is to help him win the Best Actor Award.

He has arranged all the necessary procedures, including publicity and public relations.

At worst, I can pay for PR myself.

If Hollywood never gives awards to Chinese people, this possibility is actually not that great. Not to mention Chinese Americans, there are many people who have won awards, ranging from small awards in photography and music to big awards such as Best Supporting Actor.

Non-Americans such as Peter Pau, Tim Yip, and An Li have been recognized by the Oscars more than once.

Man proposes, God disposes.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t get it. If you do, it’s like opening a gap.

It will be easier for Chinese films to go global.

Although the Oscar looks very glamorous, it hides a “curse” behind it. Many people not only fail to reach new heights in performance after winning the award, but some even fall to the bottom.

For example, Louise Fletcher won the award for her creepy performance as Nurse Ratched in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, but the blessing of the Oscar failed to help her take her film career to the next level.

There is also F. Murray Abraham, who won the award for his performance in Amadeus, but then played supporting roles in a series of B-level films and struggled for more than ten years.

Hao Yun… probably can only comfort himself in this way.

In order to ensure that he can win the Best Actor award before the age of 30, Hao Yun left himself a backup plan besides Manchester by the Sea.

That is Coal, Thin Ice.

Hao Yun finally decided to write, direct and act in this script himself.

It will probably be filmed this winter.

Then it will be taken to the Cannes International Film Festival next year to compete for the three major European actor awards.

As for why it is not taken to Venice, it is naturally because Hao Yun refused to be a judge in Venice this year, and it is difficult to refuse next year's.

Moreover, his role as a judge in the three major European festivals is also a recognition of his international film status.

After being a judge in the three major European festivals, he will go for the jury seat.

The Berlin Film Festival is too risky and it is easy to be KOed by Zheng Zhi's themes. Cannes is relatively fairer.

On August 25, Hao Yun celebrated An Xiaoxi's birthday.

The child is more than a month old, and An Xiaoxi has almost recovered. A special team was hired to do rehabilitation training.

Now she is a jumping and cute little beauty again.

However, she still insisted on breastfeeding the child herself, at least for half a year.

A lot of knowledge was learned by Hao Yun after An Xiaoxi became pregnant.

For example, the amount of milk and the size of the milk really have nothing to do with each other.

An Xiaoxi is not that big, but she has a lot of milk.

Even if Xiaoxie is a big eater, it is enough.

For example, Xiaoxie is asleep now, and An Xiaoxi is so full that she can't wait for her daughter to wake up and eat a lot, so she asked Hao Yun to help her get a breast pump.

"Such a simple thing..."

Hao Yun suddenly had an idea, and then he replaced the role of the breast pump.

Once there is one, there will be two. Once you use such a useful breast pump, you can't stop using it.

Especially when the milk is blocked, Xiaoxie doesn't cooperate, and it is Hao Yun who helps.

It's not a question of whether it tastes good or not...

It feels a bit strange, but also a bit exciting.

However, it was soon discovered by Aunt Liu.

Because her daughter can save two or three bags of milk in the refrigerator every day in addition to breastfeeding the child.

Mainly to save some food for Xiaoxie when An Xiaoxi is not at home.

Aunt Liu will often check the inventory and write a label, and will not give it to the child if it exceeds a certain time limit in the future.

However, she suddenly found that she had stored less food for a few days.

It was definitely not because the nutrition was not enough, nor could it be that the crabs suddenly ate more.

Who else could it be?

Aunt Liu was not good at discussing this matter directly with her son-in-law.

She just euphemistically said that An Xiaoxi might have to go out to work in a while, and she should leave more food for the crabs.

Breast milk is frozen at around minus 20 degrees Celsius and can generally be stored for about six months.

In order to ensure nutrition and avoid bacterial growth, it is best to drink it within three months.

Hao Yun was also a little wronged...

He just wanted to treat An Xiaoxi's milk blockage - frequent milk blockage may lead to mastitis.

He was completely wronged.

But what the mother-in-law said made sense.

Stealing the food of the daughter is really worse than that of an animal.

That is, on August 25, "Manchester by the Sea" was released in North America in a low-key manner.

It is said to be low-key because there was not even a premiere.

After all, Hao Yun can't go, and the main creators of the crew are halfway through, so there is no way to hold a premiere.

Just release it directly.

The necessary marketing still needs to be done, but it can be done after the movie is released and has a good reputation.

There are also people in the mainland who are paying attention.

However, it will not be released until around October, so although everyone is anxious to be cured, it is not something that can be cured in a hurry.

Pirated copies are not easy to find now.

Not long ago, the newly established China Film Copyright Association (abbreviated as the Film Copyright Association) announced that it will pilot and promote the "Domestic Film Internet Cafe Digital Distribution Platform" nationwide, and watching movies online, in Internet cafes, and on long-distance buses will be charged.

Immediately afterwards, Xunlei and Ku6.com said that they would implement a charging model.

Although netizens issued a fierce protest, saying "I would rather be poisoned than free" and "resolutely resist charging", they could not resist the general trend.

Moreover, most websites dare not pirate Hao Yun's movies.

Even if they pirated, they dare not pirate when they first came out.

His legal background has made his company never lose a lawsuit in the capital.

Even Nanshan Pizza Hut was badly hit.

However, at least some rumors can be heard in China.

Page Jian: My cousin is studying abroad. He said he watched Manchester by the Sea and strongly recommended it to me, saying it was very healing and could soothe my feelings of being hurt by a broken heart. Is this true?

Wu Qingzhi Killer: Really, it is absolutely true!

I backed off very hard: With Hao Yun's character, I don't believe he can make a very healing movie.

That Black Hand: Hao Yun's movies have never disappointed people, but it's a pity that this movie was released in North America first.

An Yu Shui She: I don't understand why the script has to be taken to Hollywood to be filmed. Can't it be filmed here, such as Yantai by the Sea and Xiamen by the Sea, which are also very touching.

The Other Side of the Sky: Fuck, Hao Dog, I will never coexist with you!

Yu Yue Yu Kong: @The Other Side of the Sky, what's wrong with my brother? Is the movie not good?

The Other Side of the Sky: @Fish Leaping in the Sky, no, the movie is pretty good and healing. I was angry when I thought about him marrying my goddess. Go to the movie without worry. Don't let prejudice blind your eyes.

Annie Goes Out Without a Bear: @The Other Side of the Sky, don't you really feel guilty? I'm in Miguo, just left the cinema, I can only say...

Flying Over the Sea: I've been waiting for you for a long time, why don't you say something! Why don't you say anything?

The Little Monk Huaqing of Bishan Temple: Amitabha, it seems that this movie is not simple. The Buddha's Dharma is boundless, and the world is a place to refine the mind. I must go and see it.

The King's Flower Has Not Bloomed: I guess the protagonist played by Hao Yun was abused. This is nothing. Now everyone is happy to see Hao Gou being abused.

Yuki Saegusa: I look forward to Hao Gou being abused. It happens that I will go to Miguo next week. I will watch it and share my feelings with everyone.

Shuyin Yuyang: Hao Gou abused me thousands of times, but I treated him like my first love. Although I guessed that this movie might have some problems, I was still full of expectations. Do you think I am cheap?

There are only discussions in the mainland, and only a small number of people who have read overseas movie reviews or watched the movie overseas know what the movie is about.

There are really heated discussions online in North America.

Some people say that Felix is ​​worthy of being a film genius who has won the three major European best screenwriter awards. The story of "Manchester by the Sea" is amazingly smooth, the camera language is excellent, and the actors' performances are also very wonderful. It is a complete work of art.

Others say that he has never liked Hollywood movies. Hollywood movies are committed to simplifying all characters and treating characters as props in earth-shaking events such as "saving the world" or "destroying the world". However, he accidentally saw "Manchester by the Sea" and discovered the unique charm of the movie.

Hao Yun was elevated to the same level as those film masters by foreign movie fans. They said he was an oriental film master, and he was comparable to Hou Hsiao-hsien, Yasujiro Ozu, and Hirokazu Koreeda. They said he focused on the delicate emotions and human nature of the characters, and his emotions were soft and moving.

An ordinary person in an ordinary place experienced a social news event that we might hear was very ordinary, and then fell into despair in an ordinary way.

…

Hao Yun did not expect too much abuse. Only a very small number of people thought that the director or screenwriter was too cruel and did not give the protagonist even a little hope.

But when I thought that the director, screenwriter, and leading actor were all the same person, I began to feel that I was doing too much.

This Chinese director came to Hollywood and made "Whiplash", "Buried", "Source Code", and now "Manchester by the Sea".

These are the four movies. As for the novels, the ones that are familiar to Europe and the United States are "The Martian" and "Gone Girl".

In "The Martian", a group of people left, leaving you alone, still on Mars.

Is there anything more desperate than this?

Some booksellers labeled "The most likely novel to lead to breakups this year" to attract people's attention, but after reading it, I felt that it was true and I should go home and get a divorce.

Therefore, the conclusion that netizens finally came to was that Felix was an extremely dark person.

His heart was so dirty!

Of course, no matter how much they complained, everyone was impressed by Hao Yun's talent.

Whether it was a movie or a novel.

A large number of magazines and media such as "The Washington Post", "The New York Times", "San Francisco Chronicle", "Variety", "USA Today", "Indie Wire" and "Screen Daily" have expressed their opinions.

Almost all of them gave the movie the highest rating.

It was far beyond the kind of praise that Hao Yun imagined. He thought that some media would do the opposite to attract attention.

In particular, some media have certain stance issues.

They oppose everything related to China, no matter how well you shoot it.

Li An won the Oscar and was scolded by a bunch of media.

Anne Struhoff, president of the National Review Society of the United States, gave a high evaluation of Manchester by the Sea in an interview with the Boston Globe: "Manchester by the Sea is a masterpiece of master level."

In addition to the film itself, Hao Yun's performance is also the focus of discussion among the media and film critics.

Newsweek gave a high evaluation of Hao Yun's performance, "When others were crying, he stood still with an indifferent face. Felix's performance that immersed people in that deep emotion was completely at the master level."

Master level!

Hao Yun received such an "exaggerated" evaluation at the age of 30, or 28 to be exact.

After the premiere of the film, a fierce competition was triggered.

The focus of the competition had nothing to do with "Manchester by the Sea". The distribution rights had been firmly in the hands of Paramount and FC Films.

Paramount even promised to cover the public relations expenses for the Oscars next year.

This means that Hao Yun does not need to pay.

Paramount "bought" Hao Yun an actor.

The reason for such a huge investment is because of the "fierce competition".

The target of the competition is "Gone Girl".

The quality of Hao Yun's script, the popularity of the best-selling novel, and the promotion of "Manchester by the Sea" have attracted a lot of Hollywood film companies including Paramount, Disney, Universal Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Sony, Lionsgate, etc.

Some even company executives came directly to the door.

In certain specific cases, even the president can fly around the world.

Some of them hope to participate in the production of "Gone Girl", while others hope to purchase the copyright.

Among them, 20th Century Fox proposed to obtain the production rights on behalf of David Fincher.

David Fincher wants to direct!
