You don't understand the happiness of the director

"Let's put it this way, even Li Ying didn't win the Golden Globe Award for Best Picture, so you know how valuable Director Wang's award is."

"Yes, this is the first time for a Chinese and also a Hollywood foreign reporter to strongly recognize Wang Quan's creative ability! Now it can be said that Director Wang is an internationally famous director!"

On the Tianya Forum, the discussion about "Juno" "sweeping" the Golden Globe Awards is still going on. Director Wang's supporters have already compared him to Li Bian, and this will continue for at least a few more days.

Yang Mi was spending the weekend at home. She giggled when she saw those comments boasting about royal power. She felt that if they boasted well, she would copy them, and then study them again and again. When the time came, she would apply what she had learned and be even more capable in front of Yuan Shanshan and others. It means something.

When I meet Brother Quan, I can play naturally and freely.

She was watching happily when suddenly, a panda popped up on the computer screen, holding three sticks of incense in her hand and saying goodbye.

"What the hell?" Yang Mi moved the mouse and found that she couldn't control the computer at all.

But this didn't bother her, Yang Mi. Yang Mi slowly stood up, her anger dropped from her pubic area, and she shouted, "Mom, my computer is broken!"

Yang Chunling, who had just finished cooking, ran in, still wearing an apron, "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Yang Mi pointed at the screen, "Look, it can't be used anymore."

Yang Chunling immediately became angry and pinched her daughter's waist, "I never said before, don't watch unhealthy things on your computer at home. It's fine now. You may have caught a virus."

"I don't have one, who saw it?" Yang Mi retorted guiltily. That time she just searched for Tang Jiali's photos on the Internet, but her mother saw them, and then she kept scolding herself.

"Then what's going on with the computer!" Yang Chunling patted the computer screen. This was what old TVs used to do when people stopped using them. However, this computer is obviously not as obedient as the TV. The annoying panda is still on the screen.

Yang Chunling said, "I can't help it. It depends on your father."

After a while, Lao Yang came back on his electric bicycle, and Yang Mi talked about the computer.

Lao Yang said, "No way. There are many cases like this in Beijing now. They said it was an Internet virus and even gave it a name called Panda Burning Incense. Today we received a lot of reports."

Yang Mi breathed a sigh of relief, and I said it had nothing to do with the fact that I was not looking at unhealthy things, and it wasn't very unhealthy. It was just a pity. I didn't know if the wonderful comments from netizens that I had excerpted were still there.

Wang Quan was filming in Washington State at this time. After hearing about the panda incense-burning virus from Mimi, he searched in the "Film and Television Library" and did not see any relevant film and television works, but there was a documentary.

According to the statement in the photo, the creator will be arrested next month and sentenced to several years. Also, such a small virus has cost at least several hundred million.

Just after hanging up the phone with Yang Mi, I received another call from Liu Yifei. She was also affected and was off the Internet for the whole day.

Wang Quan suggested, "Then read more books. What books have you been reading recently?"

"Twilight Saga 3~"

"Hey, you got it just after it was released in the United States. It's amazing."

Liu Yifei smiled and said, "Do you have any guest roles in your movie? I don't want any money."

Wang Quan decisively refused, "We should still respect the original work. There has never been an Asian female character in the novel."

"Okay, I'm just asking." She really wanted to cooperate with Wang Quan. A few days ago, she and her mother made a special trip back to Los Angeles to watch "Juno". I heard that Lily Collins was just a newcomer with no acting experience. , but in King Power’s movies, she has an expressiveness comparable to that of a movie queen.

So she longed to be trained by the royal power to become a good actor like Lily.

The next day, "Twilight Crew" continued filming. The filming location was the Oxbow Regional Park where King Power and Gadot had been before. Here, Edward revealed his vampire identity to Bella, and then ran to the top of the mountain with her on his back and was captured by the sun. shine.

We had reported and communicated with the relevant local departments in advance. The first principle was not to damage the ecology here. During the filming, there were several big men in uniforms watching, with a look of "Whoever chops down my tree will have his head chopped off." posture.

Wang Quan feels that this needs to be learned domestically. Both Chen Kaige and Zhang Jizhong put their works above the ecological environment.

This scene happened to be filmed in one day. On the way back to the hotel, Anna was driving. She complained to Wang Quan, "Director, do you dislike me lately?"

Kingship, "Why do you say this?"

"Every time I go to your room, I turn on Do Not Disturb. I haven't disturbed you for several days."

Wang Quan understood that it was Daddario who did it, so he gave her the room card, "Then come over tonight and come in directly when you see Do Not Disturb."

"Um!"

Then this night, Wang Quan was a little tired.

After both women fell asleep, Wang Quan went outside to answer a phone call, which was from Dorothy.

At this time, Dorothy should be taking Ma Ling and Yu Feihong to attend the Sundance Film Festival in Salt City, Utah.

"Director Wang, I bought a movie!"

"How much?" Wang Quan asked first.

"1.5 million!"

Wang Quan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it wasn't expensive. Just pay it. Then he asked what his name was and what story he was telling.

"The story is quite interesting, but it may not be rated PG-13."

Look at that, R-rated.

Dorothy said, "The story is about a girl who was contaminated, and there were teeth in that place, which would cause the man's..."

hiss!

This story is painful to listen to. The name of the movie is "Criminal Teeth". Speaking of which, the director of this film, Mitchell Lichtenstein, has some connections with Chinese movies. He is Zhao Wenxuan's boyfriend in "The Wedding Banquet". This is his A self-written and directed debut.

The movie was produced by a small company and was originally supposed to be bought by Miramax. Now it has been picked up by Dorothy, which can be regarded as finding something to do for the company's distribution department.

The price of 1.5 million is not bad, although it will definitely not make it back at the box office. The box office of this film in North America is only more than 300,000, and the global box office is only more than 2 million...

"Wait a minute, you bought global rights, right?"

"Of course, with no stars and no special effects, they made a lot of money with 1.5 million." According to Dorothy's experience in producing "10 Cloverfield Lane", this film can definitely be made with 1 million.

She also knew that this kind of movie had limited box office potential, but this kind of horror horror movie had great potential in the DVD market, so she bought it.

Wang Quan complimented her and asked about the status of his two movies.

She replied, "'Latent' has been well received. After all, you wrote the screenplay, and the director Yu Rentai is also well-known. I think it won't be a problem to sell the overseas copyright ten times."

The cost is 2 million, 10 times that is 20 million, which basically matches the film’s overseas box office strength.

Dorothy added, "The market response to "The Man Is From Earth" is relatively mediocre, so I might just go directly to the DVD distribution channel."

This is not surprising to Wang Quan. After all, a movie produced for 200,000 yuan has a single scene of dialogue. It does not have a strong script like "12 Angry Men", so it is difficult to please the theater audience.

Then Dorothy added, "I thought that the cost of "The Man from Earth" was already the lowest in the film festival. I didn't expect that the best among the best would be the best. Can you believe that someone made a movie with 15,000 yuan!"

Wang Quan: I dare to believe it.

He became interested, "Oh, what's the name of the movie?"

“It’s called ‘The Ghost Story’,” Dorothy said. “It feels like it’s a parody of ‘The Blair Witch Project’, but the audience has already been fooled once, so how could they be fooled again, so no one is interested in it. "

Wang Quan, "What about you, are you interested?"

Dorothy, "To be honest, this movie is not very watchable, and the filming is not professional. It is basically like ordinary people shooting and playing with a DV. I think they are just trying to make movies here." Art."

Wang Quan waited patiently and heard "but" as expected.

"But it's really cheap. They are willing to sell it for only 50,000 yuan. 50,000 yuan is nothing to us, and some places can really scare people."

Wang Quan smiled and said, "Then buy it. If you think this film is a bit unflattering, just set up a shell company and then let Long Tioutou's team distribute it."

Dorothy, "Director Wang, do you think something is wrong?"

Wang Quan, "It depends on how it is done. If you just throw it into the market, it won't even make a splash."

Wang Quan had come across this film many times before when he was choosing his debut and entrepreneurial films, which was later renamed "Paranormal Activity". The production cost was 15,000, and it generated a box office of 100 million in North America and nearly 200 million worldwide. He can be called the strongest king with a small and broad mind.

But after reading the comments carefully, I found that it is not that simple. The cost of publicity and marketing alone is probably more than 10 million U.S. dollars. For a movie with almost zero cost, spending so much money on marketing is not something ordinary people can do. It requires The courage and courage, as well as the accurate prediction of the market, are not something ordinary people can possess.

Moreover, the quality of movies is indeed not that great. For Wang Quan, who plans to make directing his lifelong career, he must at least make movies. "Twilight" is already his bottom line, and it cannot be lowered.

So after hesitating, the movie was made by someone else. Now that it has happened, let’s take it in. If you do it well, you can still make money.

In the end, Dorothy sighed, "For high-quality movies like last year's "Basement" and "Little Miss Sunshine," as you mentioned, I watched "Dark Matter" starring the Chinese actor, and the commercial potential is not clear."

The production of this film has also been completed. It seems that Liu Ye's dream of entering Hollywood will also come to nothing.

"Director, are you tired?" Early the next morning, Little K saw that Wang Quan was sitting on a chair and seemed to be asleep before turning on the camera, so she thoughtfully took a blanket and put it on Wang Quan's lap.

Wang Quan looked at her warily, why is she so nice to me? Is she coveting my beauty? ?

"Oh, it's okay. I worked a little late yesterday," Wang Quan wiped his face, "Okay, turn on the phone!"

Although she worked day and night on the set, Wang Quan still found time to go back to Los Angeles over the weekend. She said she had a big matter to discuss with Wang Quan.

But she refused to say it at first and insisted on having sex first.

Wang Quan said worriedly, "Have you done anything to make me sorry? I'm guarding you outside like a jade!"

Gadot pressed Wang Quan's hand and smiled playfully, "Oh, really?"

Wang Quan, "Let's have sex first."

It wasn't until both of them were tired and motionless that Gadot told the truth, "Sister Anne introduced me to an audition. She said the opportunity was rare, but I didn't know whether to accept it."

"What audition?"

"The latest 007." Gadot said.

And her worry is that in the 007 movies she has watched before, all the Bond girls, except for Yang Ziqiong, are basically sex symbol characters. Firstly, they are not interesting, and secondly, there may be many large-scale scenes. She knew that her man was actually very narrow-minded.

However, Wang Quan told her, "I think you should try it, and I support you!"

The last 007 movie "Casino Royale" was the debut of the new Bond Daniel Craig, and it is still in theaters around the world. King Quan knows that this movie will eventually have a global box office of 600 million U.S. dollars. It is a A very successful reboot, his reinvention of the tough guy 007 subverted the previous image of the romantic prodigal Bond.

The film that Gadot wants to audition for should be the next "Quantum of Solace", and it is the first 007 movie that does not even have a kiss scene. However, the heroine has a lot of fighting scenes and gun scenes, which is very suitable for the addition. Duo.

But the competitors Gadot faces are not weak either. Olga Kurylenko is a supermodel who has been famous for many years and has more experience in film acting than Gadot. She lost to them in another time and space.

But now she is not a newbie in movies. "Escape Room" has given her a lot of fans.

The 007 movie was a good opportunity, and Wang Quan also hoped that his girlfriend could become an international actress as soon as possible, so he got up from the bed and called Anne Davis, asking her what he could do to help Gadot get the 007 heroine.

Anne Davis was very excited and pushed away Rafi Feier who was working hard on her, "Are you sure you can do anything?"

"Except for letting me direct 007 movies." The witty Wang Quan hurriedly blocked the road. Action blockbusters like 007 running around the world are a waste of energy, and in the end, the actors who received flowers and applause were all 007 actors. He was the one who Not doing it yet.

Raffi Phil, "Don't worry, even if you agree, Dorothy will not agree. I don't want to break up with her because of you, but if the other party hopes that you can help them write the script for the third part, you should No objection, of course, the price must be in line with your current status."

Wang Quan readily agreed, "I have no problem here."

Daniel's third 007 movie has made more than one billion hits worldwide, and it's not a loss at all.

After hanging up the phone, Gadot rushed over to her. She heard everything clearly and there was nothing more to say, "Can you still move, my dear~"

The next day, Wang Quan couldn't move, but it didn't matter, as long as he could get in the car and be pulled to the set by Anna at night.

On this day, the long-awaited Oscar nomination list was officially announced, and the names of King Power and "Juno" were impressively included!

(First, I’ll pay off last month’s debt. There are more than twenty chapters. It’s very exciting. Then I’ll ask for a guaranteed monthly pass! It’ll be more exciting!)
