Superstars start as villains

Chapter 208 A generation of grandmasters.

The popularity of "33 Days of Broken Love" completely ignited the battlefield of the Lunar New Year file in 2011. Although a dark horse is rare, but when it comes to the most popular movie in 2011, it must be Lao Mouzi's "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins".

Since the project of "Jinling Thirteen Beauties" was established, Zhang Weiping claimed that the investment in this drama was as high as 6.5 million yuan, and he also invited the first-line Hollywood star Bell to join.

This drama has attracted the attention of countless audiences since its official shooting on January 1. Although the "Three Shots Surprise" in 10 discredited Lao Mouzi, it can never be denied that Lao Mouzi's influence in the hearts of the audience force.

In addition to Lao Mouzi, Xu Ke's "Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate" is also coincidentally scheduled to be released on December 12th. Compared with Lao Mouzi, Xu Ke's international influence may not be so sufficient, but Huaxia, Xu Ke's reputation is not inferior to that of Lao Mouzi. Ever since the release dates of the two films were announced, the media has predicted that this will be a battle between dragons and tigers.

Of course, before each round of fighting, Zhang Weiping will inevitably demote the opponent to nothing, but this time the opponent is Xu Ke, Zhang Weiping is still a bit self-aware, and he did not mock [Tailing Ling] as he did to Zhu Yanping before. Zhang Weiping just repeatedly emphasized that Lao Mouzi is the best director in China, bar none.

To this, Xu Ke did not respond at all. In fact, Xu Ke’s qualifications are not worse than Lao Mouzi’s. Worked as a student in the Photography Department of Beijing Film Academy.

Compared with Zhang Weiping who always likes to step on his opponents to promote himself, Shi Nansheng has always only highlighted the characteristics of Xu Ke's movies. As the first officially certified IMAX 3D movie in the history of Chinese movies, "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate" is not a lack of gimmick.

Zhou Xing received an invitation from Xu Ke at the premiere of "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate". Before, Xu Ke came to attend his wedding, so this favor must be repaid this time.

Originally, Zhou Xing only planned to go alone, but after seeing it, Tong Lia said that she would also attend together, saying that staying at home was too boring.

"We're all gone, so what will he do?" Zhou Xing looked at his son lying sprawled on the bed, babbling in an alien language.

Tong Lia glanced outside, meaning: Isn't our mother here?

It's okay for Zhou Xing to think about it. Anyway, the premiere ceremony is in the capital, and it will only take a few hours at most, so it should be no problem.

"That's fine, you tell mom." Zhou Xing made a gesture of invitation.

Tong Lia put her face into Zhou Xing's arms: "No, you go and tell mom."

Zhou Xing scolded with a smile: "Now you know how embarrassed you are?"

"Hmph, are you going or not?" Tong Lia became angry from embarrassment.

Fortunately, Zhou's mother said very generously that the little guy will be handed over to her, assuring that there will be no problem.

"yeah!"

Seeing Tong Lia almost jumping up with excitement, Zhou Xing couldn't help but feel distressed. This girl seemed really bored at home.

"Husband, what do you think of me wearing this?"

However, Zhou Xing has not yet realized that his troubles are coming. In fact, women care about face far more than men, especially women in the entertainment circle. Yes, there is always one piece of clothing missing in a woman's closet. This sentence perfectly explains Tong Liya's current predicament.

Fortunately, Zhou Xing was not short of money for a dress, but it was Tong Lia who was more troublesome.

Soon Tong Lia realized that it was no use not being able to wear a beautiful dress. Maybe she couldn't bear such a cruel blow all at once, so she started to cry loudly. When she cried, her son cried too. Zhou Xing was trying to coax this, right? Neither is that.

Zhou Xing was a little dumbfounded. It is inevitable for a woman to gain weight after giving birth, and he felt that Tong Lia was a little thinner before, which is very good. She is fleshy in her arms and feels good to the touch.

However, Tong Lia didn't appreciate Zhou Xing's consolation at all, and even grabbed him a few times to vent her anger, and solemnly announced: "Start tomorrow, lose weight!"

The first step for Tong Liya to lose weight is to refuse the beautiful soup cooked by Zhou's mother, even though Zhou's mother has repeatedly emphasized that these are not for her to drink, but for her grandson.

This time, Tong Lia was determined. Not being able to wear a dress was a huge blow to her. She originally wanted to use this premiere to show her presence in front of the media.

When the woman went crazy, she was really cruel to herself. She only ate vegetables and salads for several days. It's okay to drink it as a snack, but the snack suddenly becomes the staple food, and I don't do it anyway.

"Are you torturing yourself? Or are you torturing my son?" Zhou Xing protested solemnly.

Seeing her son crying sadly, Tong Lia was also very distressed, so her weight loss plan had to be shelved.

Since physical weight loss didn't work, she found another way. Tong Lia carried out a psychological weight loss method, that is, instead of wearing a formal dress, she wore a down jacket.

Putting on the down jacket, Tong Lia was pleasantly surprised to find that she didn't seem to be that fat anymore. Zhou Xing naturally agreed with it. After all, it's so cold to wear an evening dress in winter, just to show to those irrelevant people?Others don't feel distressed, but he still feels distressed.

Of course, in order to support Tong Lia's "slim" Zhou Xing also gave up formal attire to attend, and wore a down jacket like Tong Lia.

On December 12th, at the premiere of [Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate], under the spotlight of the reporters, the stars slowly entered the premiere screening hall like a fashion week show, especially some female stars, for fear that the dress fabric would not be enough Little, lest the location that should be exposed is not fully revealed.

Until two people dressed like penguins came hand in hand.

"Is this here to make trouble?"

"Fuck, are these Zhou Xing and Tong Lia?"

Well, the reporters are stupid, what's going on?Did any of you attend the premiere like this?If these two faces were not so familiar, they probably would have thought it was two ordinary audience members who had gone to the wrong set.

Not only the reporters were dumbfounded, but Shi Nansheng was also a little dumbfounded. Zhou Xing and Tong Lia came to the premiere dressed like this.

"Haha, others say I'm slovenly and call me Old Freak Xu. I think you have great potential too." Xu Ke patted Zhou Xing's shoulder and smiled.

Zhou Xing glanced at Tong Lia, who blushed with embarrassment, and secretly pinched Zhou Xing. Unfortunately, the down jacket was too thick, and Zhou Xing didn't feel anything at all.

"Brother Jie." Under Xu Ke's introduction, Zhou Xing also met the legendary Kung Fu Emperor.

Li Lianjie also shook hands with Zhou Xing very politely: "Young people have been in the limelight recently, and you will be the one to carry the big banner of Kung Fu movies in the future."

After finishing speaking, Li Lianjie was not without emotion. If he was five years younger, these words would never come out of his mouth. However, as a person born in 63, he is already 48 years old this year, and will be 50 years old in two years. up.

50 years old is definitely not old for an actor, but for kung fu actors, 50 years old can no longer move.

Zhou Xing said a few polite words, and the premiere ceremony officially started not long after. The main creators went on stage to interact with the audience. The atmosphere was very enthusiastic. It could be seen that many audiences came for Li Lianjie, like Cheng Kun and Zhou Xun. He can be regarded as a first-line star in the mainland, but standing with Li Lianjie, his popularity is not as good.

At the end of the premiere ceremony, all the lights went out, and the big screen gradually lit up. Zhou Xing and Tong Lia put on 3D glasses.

For 3D movies, Zhou Xing has a deep impression. Last year's "Avatar" is still vivid in his memory, so Zhou Xing still has some expectations for this movie.

However, Zhou Xing soon discovered that the 3D effect of [Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate] could only be regarded as qualified, and it was really incomparable with [Avatar]. It is too unreasonable to achieve the same effect.

And what made Zhou Xing a little puzzled was that the plot of "Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate" was not unreasonable, but it always felt weird.

It wasn't until the movie's curtain call that Zhou Xing suddenly realized that he didn't seem to remember the plot very much, the only thing he remembered was a few fights and the 3D effect that was still acceptable.

Of course, Cheng Kun's acting skills are still remarkable. Playing a triangle in a play is a test for any actor.

Zhou Xing took Tong Lia and left silently without disturbing Xu Ke. He must be very busy until Xu Ke is at this time. In fact, Zhou Xing has always respected Xu Ke. This is a director who has never lowered his requirements for movies.

Of course, Xu Ke has also made bad movies, and more than one, but those movies were indeed made by him. Lao Mouzi himself admitted that he made many compromises for the market on many occasions, but Xu Ke did not. He is always innovating and changing.

The next day, [Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate] reached 2300 million at the box office on the first day, while [Jinling Thirteen Hairpins] only had a box office of 1900 million on the first day. The most interesting thing is that this was not the headline of many media that day.

Surprisingly, the headlines on most entertainment sections read: Tong Lia made her public appearance for the first time after marriage, wearing a down jacket, with a slightly bloated figure, but judging from her complexion, her married life seems to be very happy.

Apparently, Tong Liya didn't pay attention to the second half of the sentence, so she recognized the first half, angrily turned off the TV, and then gritted her teeth and came to the electronic scale.

Just as Zhou Xing was about to stretch his head, he was pushed away with a slap. The palm strength was like learning Baguazhang. Zhou Xing couldn't catch it and was almost pushed away.

In the end, Tong Lia decided to lose weight. Of course, dieting will definitely not work. For the sake of her son’s health, he must eat and eat, so the rest is exercise to lose weight. As a best friend, Wang Li found her a yoga teacher. Zhou Xing saw it , as long as his son is not starved, he has no objection, although he always thinks that a little meat feels better.

The fight between [Jinling Thirteen Hairpins] and [Longmen Flying Armor] is still going on. Although [Dragon Gate Flying Armor] won the first box office on the first day, it is because of the advantage of 3D movie ticket prices. 】The attendance rate is actually a little higher than that of 【Longmen Flying Armor】.

And to be reasonable, Lao Mouzi's "Jinling Thirteen Beauties" is indeed his rare and sincere work in recent years. Lao Mouzi is definitely not lacking in fame, and with some word of mouth, he is naturally invincible.

The first week's box office announced that "Thirteen Beauties of Jinling" won the box office champion of the week with 1.5 million yuan, while "Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate" only followed with 1.42 million yuan.

In fact, this result is not so amazing, after all, the box office of "33 Days of Broken Relationship" also reached 1.5 million in the first week.

However, compared to a low-budget film, both "Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" and "Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate" have shown good durability.

In the end, "Jinling Thirteen Beauties" won 6 million box office, and "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" also reached 5.5 million box office, which is considered a happy event.

But even if it gets 6 million box office, the annual box office champion in the mainland in 2011 does not belong to "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", because the box office of "Transformers 3" is as high as 10 billion, and this series has already swept the box office of 27 billion US dollars in the world. , the ability to absorb money can be called terrifying.

At the end of the year, "Zhixing Film and Television" is also on holiday. Of course, the holiday staff does not include artists, their assistants, and managers.

For artists, the end of the year is the easiest time for them to make money, and it is also the best time to increase their popularity. Especially for Wang Kai and Jiao Junyan, who have just tasted the taste of popularity, various commercial performances, announcements, and TV shows will be their best time. stage.

Surprisingly, Wang Kai has such a little talent in singing, coupled with his unique deep voice, he shined brilliantly on the stage of Shanghai Satellite TV and attracted countless fans.

Compared with Wang Kai and Jiao Junyan, Zhou Xing's various invitations have never been broken, especially since he has hardly taken over commercial performances in the past two years, which has attracted many organizers, and the prices offered are getting more and more expensive. Gao, if he didn't want to spend more time with his son, maybe Zhou Xing would really be tempted.

However, just when Zhou Xing was about to go home comfortably to take care of the child, Anli approached him with an invitation.

When Zhou Xing opened it, he understood why Anli would do this, because the invitation came from a director—Sunglass King.

If it is said that there are two directors in the Chinese film industry that actors cannot refuse, then there must be the King of Sunglasses among them.

Being able to play the role of King of Sunglasses is a recognition of the actor, and King of Sunglasses is definitely the best director who can create a king of actors and actresses, not one of them.

"Why would he think of asking me to make a film?" Zhou Xing was a little puzzled. In his memory, Wei Zai seemed to be the king of sunglasses.

Anli said sternly: "Two years ago, Sunglasses King watched a video about Ye Man before he passed away. I heard that while watching it, he noticed a pause in Ye Man's boxing, so he wanted to make a movie about martial arts. , Originally he really wanted to find Wei Zai to shoot, but then he saw your [Ip Man], so he wanted to ask if you are interested in playing this role."

Well, Zhou Xing rolled his eyes secretly, it sounds fresh, just because of a pause, you want to make a kung fu movie?However, this kind of behavior is not ruled out. Although I have not been in contact with Sunglass King, but I heard from actors who have worked with him that this guy is indeed a bit of a talker.
