You don't understand the happiness of the director

In North Carolina, the vast forests of the eastern Appalachian Mountains provided the setting for the arena featured in The Hunger Games.

King Power regards this series of movies as the key project for the dragon to raise its head after the end of "The Twilight Saga". It is the head within the head and the mainstay of the box office in the next five years.

Whether the total box office of "The Dragon Head" can regain its glory next year is very important to this movie.

The novel is an adventure, action, and suspense genre that teenagers are keen on. Coupled with the heroine Xiao K’s unparalleled appeal among this group, Wang Quan personally participated in the adaptation. The company’s North American box office expectations for the film reached 250 million U.S. dollars.

In order to produce an excellent action film, Wang Quan invited the Russo brothers who later produced "Captain America 2" to take the shot.

At this time, they were still newcomers in the film industry. When this opportunity came to them, they were naturally grateful to the king.

However, this is also what makes Dorothy worried. She is worried that two directors who have never made any major productions will not be able to handle it. Therefore, she personally served as the producer of "The Hunger Games". Before Wang Quan returned to Los Angeles, she stayed there for a long time. On the set, they felt relieved after confirming the level of the brothers, and called Wang Quan a wise man.

In addition to "The Hunger Games", there is also "Despicable Me" Part 2, and "Gravity 3D" adapted from the Throne short film, starring Theron and George Clooney. The key to a turnaround.

There is also "The Fault in Our Stars" starring Little K, adapted from the novel. This movie has no other selling points except Little K. It is the first movie that Little K starred in after the "Twilight" series. To a certain extent, it can be regarded as a test of Xiao K's personal box office appeal after leaving King Power and the "Twilight" IP.

We took a car to the hotel outside the forest, which was also the hotel where the crew stayed. Wang Quan opened a new room, and Dorothy put her luggage in Little K's room. Both of them had come out and there was no need to hide it.

Many gay actors envy Little K. Generally, after an idol star comes out, even an open country like the United States will be affected, thus reducing job opportunities. But the girlfriend behind Little K, Dorothy, is the boss of Long Head Head. Therefore, Little K still has a chance to become the soulful heroine of the "Hunger Games" series, even more soulful than Bella in "Twilight".

After taking a short rest, the two drove to the set again, where an action scene was being filmed.

The first thing Wang Quan saw was Little K, who was carrying a quiver on her back and holding a bow in her hand. She was much stronger than before, and her withered little figure had also plumped up, and her chest was bulging. It seemed that she had made a special trip for Katniss. Fitness and shaping for this role.

The people confronting her were two Asian men and women. The girl was Wang Quan's old friend Wang Keying. Xiao Wang was now 19 years old and had completely grown out.

The "Escape Room" trilogy has given her a solid foothold in Hollywood. Now she has no shortage of film roles, but she is not a heroine in a production of the scale of "The Hunger Games". She would be good in a supporting role.

Xiao Wang can still see traces of mixed blood. Next to him is a pure-blooded Asian young man. Wang Quan has read the information and found out that he studied abroad in Maple Leaf Country very early. His name is Han Dongjun, he is also 19 years old.

From Dou Xiao to Han Dongjun, and Kris Wu, who missed the throne and is working hard in Kimchi Country, Maple Leaf Country has really produced many male stars in the Chinese entertainment industry.

They were filming a fight scene, with Little K fighting one against two, and Wang Quan standing behind the director.

Anthony Russo, the elder brother of the Russo brothers, was watching the monitor, and Joe Russo, the younger brother, was directing at the scene. The two brothers are only one year apart and look alike. They have been working together since they first entered the industry, and the director's salary is also the same. Evenly divided.

Although this kind of fraternal director partnership is rare, it is not unheard of. There are also the famous Coen brothers and the two who were once the Wachowski brothers, now the Wachowski siblings, and will eventually become the Wachowski sisters. Bit.

It seems that this combination is more likely to produce excellent directors.

Anthony was very calm. Even when the two bosses Wang Quan and Dorothy came to the scene, they simply said hello and continued working.

However, an actress standing behind Wang Quan was eager to talk to Wang Quan. She was Elizabeth Olsen, who had met Wang Quan once before when she auditioned for "Juno". She is 22 years old this year.

Having two big star twin sisters, she has graduated from New York University and finally entered the entertainment industry, starting with small roles.

Aomei was very discerning and saw that Wang Quan's mouth was a little dry, so she finally found an opportunity to hand him a glass of water.

"Oh, thank you, your part hasn't been finished yet?" Wang Quan remembered that her character died relatively early.

O'Mei smiled bitterly and said, "I was arrested a few days ago, but I was worried that there would be reshoots, and I didn't have any other filming appointments, so I didn't leave."

In fact, she heard from Little K that Dorothy and King David would come to visit her class, so she waited, but she didn't expect that they actually did.

Being able to show her face in front of a great director like Wang Quan, maybe she will think of herself next time she makes a Hollywood movie. Elizabeth Olsen has always felt that her conditions are quite good. She was not able to play the leading role in the first place. It's such a shame that "Juno" was an instant hit.

Seeing that Wang Quan's attitude was still very kind, O'Mei asked Wang Quan again, "Director, are you preparing for a new movie project in Los Angeles recently?"

Wang Quan shook his head, "It's not a new movie, it's a new drama."

"Ah, new drama?"

Wang Quan smiled and said, "We'll know in a few days. We'll keep it a secret for now."

Although it is kept secret, the cast members of "Game of Thrones" have already gone to Northern Ireland to set up scenes, and the King of Thrones will pass in a few days.

After that, Wang Quan stayed away from the director and asked her what movies she had filmed since joining the industry. Seeing that Wang Quan cared about her, Aomei talked endlessly with a very sweet smile.

It seems that I haven’t come across the American version of “Oldboy” yet, and the Scarlet Witch is nowhere to be seen.

Because she was too focused on chatting with O Mei next to her, she didn’t notice that the actors were taking a break. Little K and Dorothy were already hugging each other and kissing passionately. Wang Keying looked at Wang Quan and O Mei talking and laughing, and felt a little hesitant. Do you want to come over and disturb me?

But Little K didn't care about that. After letting go of Dorothy, he ran over and hugged Wang Quan, and slapped him hard on the back twice.

The feeling of holding little K is different now, and there is no panic at all.

After that, Wang Quan greeted Wang Keying again and met Han Dongjun under her introduction. He had only been in Maple Leaf Kingdom for a short time, and he still had the northeastern accent of his hometown when he spoke Chinese. If it were Sissi, he would definitely have a lot to talk with him. chat.

Like most Chinese young people, Han Dongjun regards Wang Quan as his lifelong idol, and he asked with some trepidation if he could take a photo with him.

"No problem, Xiao Wang will help us take a picture."

Wang Keying pouted, "Ah, you won't take me with you?" I'm the one you watched grow up!

Wang Quan laughed and said, "Let Xiao Wei take the photo for us later."

After this start, other young actors also asked for photos, including Omei, and Wang Quan agreed one by one.

After securing these fan actors, Wang Quan had the opportunity to talk about movies with the two Russell directors.

This series plans to make four films. If there are no major problems with the first film, we will directly sign a contract with them for the next three films, at the rate of one film a year.

When Wang Quan checked the past materials, the two directors stood at attention like students whose homework was being checked.

Although they are more than ten years older than Wang Quan and entered the industry much earlier, they are more like newcomers in the film field than Wang Quan, and it was Wang Quan who selected them as their generals and had the kindness to meet them.

When Wang Quan expressed his approval of their homework, the two middle-aged men in their forties smiled like children.

After finishing work and returning to the hotel in the evening, Wang Quan knocked on the door of Dorothy and Little K's room.

Little K had been filming for a day and was sweating a lot. He was taking a shower. Wang Quan suggested to Dorothy, "Do you want to talk to the two directors about work matters?"

Dorothy was very angry. She had gone too far. She was trying to show off her face, but she was not even pretending, right?

Seeing that she didn't move, Wang Quan picked her up directly, and then she gave up.

"I'll talk to the Russo brothers about the filming progress. I'll definitely be back in half an hour."

However, when talking about work with the Russo brothers, Dorothy always seemed absent-minded. This was no better than at home, where she could still watch the recording even if she couldn't catch the live broadcast.

Just like this, more than half an hour of scratching one's heart had passed. The Russo brothers' work had been reported in detail, and there was nothing more to say. Dorothy then returned to her room anxiously.

At this time, K Jinlian had finished taking a bath, and Ximen Quan had already disappeared.

Little K covered himself with a quilt and said with a smile, "David and I chatted for a while. When he saw that you didn't come back, he left first. He said that you have to avoid suspicion."

Dorothy snorted, her acting looked very similar, you will win an Oscar sooner or later.

She got under the quilt and found that little K had not washed it again afterwards, and there were still traces of David's visit, so she became even more excited.

Wang Quan returned to his room feeling refreshed. Little K was becoming more and more feminine, but Taozi was still prettier. He was getting married next month, so soon.

It was still early, so Wang Quan went online for a while, first on domestic Weibo, and oh, the first one was himself.

"Director Wang Quan is suspected of making an American TV series!"

Wang Quan didn’t even click on it, he didn’t even need to watch it to know that there would probably be a lot of cynicism. After all, movies are more powerful than TV series. No matter how good the TV series is, no one calls the TV series director a “master”.

I'm afraid that the comments inside will be that the anti-fans took the opportunity to despise King Power, while the fans of King Power desperately deny it.

He skipped it and read the next one.

Oh, the new issue of the rich list of writers is out.

Wang Quan clicked in and took a look. Not surprisingly, the number one player was the most popular one in the world, and he was number one in the gap.

The news of Wang Quan's "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern" just came out last year, and this year the film has been released and swept the global market, creating the best results for a Chinese-language film. "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern" has also risen from a popular novel to the level of a cultural symbol.

Some admirers even suggested adding "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" to the Four Great Classics, calling it the "Five Great Classics". After realizing that there were such voices on the Internet, Tianxiaba Chang quickly expressed on Weibo that Yinghuo An dared to compete with Haoyue. Hui.

Nowadays, even people who don’t like this subject or even people who don’t usually read books will buy a complete set of Ghost Blowing Lamp, or put it on the bookshelf to collect dust, or flip through it to preview the subsequent plot of the movie version.

When the movie "Ghost Blowing Out the Lamp" was successfully launched, it also created some derivative products, which sold tens of millions (non-profit), but the best-selling novel was the original novel. Within one year, Ma Yang easily exceeded 500 million, and it was the most popular one in the world. Royalty income reached an astonishing 63 million!

Ranked second is Guo Jingming with 24 million. In addition to the hot sales of his new book "Jue Ji", his high ranking is also due to the contribution of old books such as "Little Times". With the success of "Mind Shuo" magazine, his New readers also come one after another.

And not long ago, he just announced that "Tiny Times" will be adapted into both TV series and movies.

In addition, his novel "The River of Sorrow" will also be adapted into a movie by a mysterious director, and good news will be released soon.

The third place is the third uncle of the Southern School, with 22 million.

Driven by "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", the sales volume of the same type of "Tomb Robbers Notes" has also increased significantly, and "Tomb Robbers Notes" has not yet been completed.

But looking at the income gap between himself and Tian Xia Ba Sing, Uncle Nanpai felt like he was going to be depressed.

As the sales of the book increase, the number of readers increases, and more and more people urge for updates. Uncle Nanpai suspects that if he cannot finish the book obediently, not only will someone send him a razor blade, but there will also be readers offline. Have a touch with yourself.

Now while he is writing "Tomb Raider Notes", he is also writing another similar tomb robbing novel, and is planning to take advantage of this trend to cooperate with a film company to make a tomb robbing movie of his own style.

As for the ones at the back, they are basically old faces. Many writers are actively cooperating with film and television companies, trying to expand the influence of their works through film and television. On the list are Annie Baby, Han Han, Jiang Nan, Tong Hua, Jiang Rong, Liu Zhenyun, etc. Adaptations of everyone's works have been or are about to be released.

Among them, Han Han's work "Glory Day" was chosen by Hong Kong director Guan Jinpeng. Unfortunately, the script failed to pass the review and the middle road fell apart. As a movie lover, this made Han Han feel a little itchy with regret.

On the hot search list, the entertainment industry is still strong, but it is no longer as dominant as before. After all, the influence of Weibo is also expanding, with an increasing number of audiences, and people are paying attention to various topics. Weibo is coming soon peak.

Wang Quan was not very interested in other topics, so he closed Weibo and looked at Twitter.

Then I saw Omei’s private message in the private message.

"We don't have private contact information yet. Isn't it convenient?"

Then she left her personal contact information.

Wang Quan ignored it. It wasn't that his body couldn't bear it, it was just little K. It was just that he had Sissi, Mimi, and Gadot in Los Angeles in his heart. He was not as wild as in previous years.

The next day, Wang Quan and Dorothy were preparing to return to Los Angeles. She was still busy with contacts with Lucasfilm, while Wang Quan was about to leave for the "Game of Thrones" crew in Northern Ireland.

Unexpectedly, when they left, Aomei also expressed her intention to leave, and even took a ride with them to the airport.

While on the road in the car, Dorothy was back to her old ways, chatting with a pretty girl even though she was about to get married.

However, Aomei's attention was mainly on Wang Quan. She directly asked Wang Quan face to face if he could leave his contact information.

Now it was hard for Wang Quan to refuse in person. After the exchange, he asked Dorothy, "Aren't you going to keep one?"

Dorothy, "We have known each other for a long time. Elizabeth and I have known each other since we were children. In Chinese terms, we have known each other since we were young."

Wang Quan sighed, thinking that even his younger sister was a scumbag!

When she arrived at the airport, as expected, Elizabeth Olsen hadn't bought a plane ticket yet, because she was going back to Los Angeles, so she took an extra one with her.

Although it is a domestic flight in the United States, the flight takes six hours, one from the east coast to the other from the west coast.

Dorothy wanted to catch up on some sleep during these six hours. She had been too excited last night.

And Aomei watched Wang Quan closely for the past six hours, chatting with him, watching movies with him, and later she asked Wang Quan to take her there for convenience.

"This plane is too big. I'm afraid I'll get lost?"

Wang Quan was amused, "Then do you want me to teach you how to use the bathroom? The toilet here is quite smart."

"Ah, can you? That would be great!"

Now that the words have come to this point, it would be a bit rude to remain reserved any longer, so Wang Quan had no choice but to go into the bathroom with her and come out an hour later.

It has to be said that the 21-year-old Scarlet Witch is still very plump. Not only does she have a plump bust like her widowed sister, but she is also nearly 1.7 meters tall.

Maybe it's just a Scarlet Witch suit compared to Scarlett.

Dorothy also woke up an hour later, because the plane was about to land, and Wang Quan and Aomei became ordinary friends again.

After returning to Los Angeles, Wang Quan returned to family life and devoted himself to accompanying Gadot and Alice. His reluctance to leave them made him stay at this home every day, while he and Liu Yifei's home was left to Mimi.

When Wang Quan left Los Angeles for Northern Ireland, Yang Mi reported a piece of good news to her.

"Brother, the box office of "33 Days of Love" has exceeded 300 million, and it's only been half a month!"

Wang Quan was very pleased, "As expected of you."

Based on the quality and subject matter of this movie, even with Yang Mi on board, most people in the industry think it is only 100 million. Who would have thought that it would break 300 million so quickly? Yang Mi is expected to be in the top ten at the box office this year. It's so terrifying!

When Zhou Xingchi, who was currently working on "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", heard the news, he hesitated for just one night and raised Yang Mi from second to first, beating the leading male protagonist Wen Zhang.

"This girl's luck is unstoppable. I'm just going with the flow."

Ning Hao still wanted to show some respect, but he just turned the second-time Yang Mi into an existence equal to Shen Tong. He hoped that when the movie is released, Yang Mi can help the movie box office exceed one billion.

On the first day before Wang Quan left, in order to reward Mimi, Wang Quan watched a live broadcast of the Golden Horse Awards with her.

Of course, watching the live broadcast is incidental, the main thing is to fight!

This year's Golden Horse Awards are not interesting to Wang Quan. Neither Yang Mi nor Liu Yifei was nominated. Only Jiahe's "New World" was shortlisted for several awards including Best Picture in the Wang Dao family. Several other films include " "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" are all small prizes.

But there are hard-hitting films like "Sister Peach", "Sediq Bale" and "Let the Bullets Fly" in the same session, so the possibility of winning the grand prize is not high.

After closing the door, drawing the curtains, taking off their clothes, and listening to the familiar melody of the Golden Horse Awards, Wang Quan and Mimi began to move...
