You don't understand the happiness of the director

After a week's rest, Wang Quan returned to the company and started working. He mainly worked on two things, the post-production of "Twilight 3" and the post-production of "Inception".

Both movies will be released in the summer of next year, one in May and the other in July. Although "Twilight 3" is scheduled to be closer, Wang Quan chose to make "Inception" first. The post-production work of this film is huge, and it may be Four or five times that of "Twilight 3".

When "Inception" got on track and he started working on "Twilight 3" at the same time, he would be obsessed with these two movies for the next year.

At this time, Ma Ling walked into Wang Quan's office and said, "The Dark Knight is so good, but it's a pity that it wasn't as good as Twilight 2 in its first week."

Wang Quan pulled her and sat on his lap, "What do you mean? It's a pity that you can't tell who is yours, right?"

"You are my friend and boss, but The Dark Knight is my favorite movie. I rarely give it a 10 on IMDB." Ma Ling looked like an intoxicated movie fan.

Wang Quan, "How would you rate "Twilight 2"?"

Ma Ling, "Eight points."

"You have a conscience, and your score is higher than the average." Wang Quan's movements slowed down a little.

"The Dark Knight" achieved good results of 122 million in its first weekend of release, and the Saturday box office exceeded that of Friday. Compared with the 50 million first weekend box office of its predecessor "Shadow Begins", the performance has increased significantly and is higher than that of "Iron Man" And the results of "Raiders of the Lost Ark 4" are even better.

This is not only the influence of Batman IP, but also the fermentation of the film’s reputation.

Although it is not as good as the 156 million the first weekend of "Twilight 2", its IMDB score is 8.5, and its Rotten Tomatoes freshness rating is as high as 90%!

These data crush "Twilight 2" in all aspects. Authoritative organizations predict that the film's box office is expected to surpass "Iron Man", "Raiders of the Lost Ark 4" and "Twilight 2", three blockbusters worth 300 million this year.

But Wang Quan knows that this figure is far from the results achieved by "The Dark Knight" in The Original Space and Time. Its first weekend box office was 158 million, directly breaking the box office record in film history.

But now, because Heath Ledger, who plays the Joker, is still alive, Warner can't make a fuss in this regard. It can't market it half a year in advance. Heath Ledger died because of his obsession with the character and his obsession with the character.

Without this big gimmick, the box office in the first weekend was cut by more than 30 million yuan.

Because this movie wasn't that big of a hit, Long Toutou's first musical "Mamma Mia", which was released on the same day as him, was much better than In Time, with a box office of 35 million in its first weekend!

However, Wang Quan is still optimistic about the box office of "The Dark Knight" because with the increase in the number of movie viewers, the IMDB score of this movie has not only not dropped, but has increased by 0.1 points, and has entered IMDB's TOP250, ranking 30th high.

However, "Juno", King Quan's only one on the list, ranked just over 160, with a score of 8.1.

When Wang Quan told Ma Ling that she also gave "The Dark Knight" a 10-point score, she smiled and kissed Wang Quan, which was a reward for her confidant.

"Okay, let's get down to business," Ma Ling jumped off Wang Quan's lap, "Does the company really want me to direct "Ex Machina"?"

Wang Quan, "I know you prefer "Source Code" written by the director himself..."

Ma Ling interrupted him, "You taught me how to write it, so we can cooperate."

"Don't try to tease me," Wang Quan snorted, "But "Source Code" involves some big scenes, and the investment is about twice as much as "Ex Machina." The company wants you not to become fat in one bite, from small to big. Take your time and "Source Code" can be shot again next year."

"You won't give it to another director, right?"

"How could that be? You are the third largest individual shareholder of the company."

Ma Ling hesitated for a moment, "Okay, but I have to choose the protagonist of "Ex Machina" myself."

"Okay, we just need to arrange a supporting role for our sponsor."

"That Chinese eldest lady, is she good at English?"

Wang Quan said, "It should be okay."

"banana, banana..."

At Zhang Songwen's International Performance Studio, Nazha saw Jing Tian studying English hard during the break.

Although they were Teacher Zhang's first and second disciples, they didn't communicate much at first. Naza was afraid that these children from rich families would not be easy to get along with.

However, Jing Tian was a nice person with a carefree personality, and gradually there was no barrier between Nazha and her.

"Sister Sweetie, are you studying English so hard that you have to take CET-4?"

"No, I'm going to Hollywood to film."

"Pfft!" Teacher Zhang Songwen, who was drinking tea, was shocked. "Are you going to Hollywood to film?"

Jing Tian blinked his big innocent eyes, "Yes, the company's investment scene is a supporting role."

Zhang Songwen didn't want to lose his face abroad with her. "Is there a script? I can give you special acting training for your role."

Or at worst, I will accompany her to the United States and give her one-on-one tutoring on the set.

Jing Tian said, "Well, I'll ask Director Wang Quan later. The script should be written."

Nazha, "Director of King Power!"

"Yes, this drama is a collaboration between our company and Long Toutou. Director Wang personally invited me to play this role. He said that I am quite spiritual." At this point, Jing Tian felt a little embarrassed.

Teacher Zhang was suspicious of the last sentence, and Nazha just thought it was a coincidence that they all knew Director Wang.

Nazha really wanted to talk about her bad relationship with Director Wang, but her situation was too much like being taken care of by Director Wang, so she decided not to talk about it, so as not to cause trouble to Director Wang.

After class, Nazha returned home and found Zhang Tianai lying on the ground asleep. Really, she didn’t know how to cover herself with a quilt. Although it was July, she was lying on the ground with the air conditioner blowing on. What if she caught a cold? See Her lips turned white.

"Sister Ai, wake up, Ai..." Suddenly, Nazha reacted and threw herself on the ground with a loud shout, "Sister Ai!"

Half an hour later, Zhang Tianai woke up in the hospital. The doctor said that the problem was not serious, it was just low blood sugar.

Nazha scolded her, "Sister Ai, even if you lose weight, you can't work so hard. Your body is your own."

Zhang Tianai held Nazha's hand, "Thank you Nazha, I didn't expect that I would be like this after just three hungry meals. You, do you have anything to eat with you? I'm hungry~"

Nazha touched her body, but there was nothing there. Otherwise, how could she maintain such a figure? She just had to keep her mouth shut.

At this time, a fat girl from behind handed over a piece of chocolate and said, "Eat mine."

"Ah, Sister Tianzhen, why are you here?" Zhang Tianai struggled to get up.

Nazha, "I made a call and people behaved like this. Shouldn't their company be held responsible?"

Just as Yang Tianzhen was about to retort, Zhang Tianai hurriedly said, "It's still my problem. I'm impatient to lose weight, but I'm now 105 pounds and have lost 10 pounds!"

She really wants to get this opportunity. "Time 1997" is so popular now. Several girls signed by Yang Mi's company have all appeared in the show and gained a lot of popularity.

Moreover, since we are all female bosses in this life, we don’t have to worry about unspoken rules, and our parents can rest assured, how great it is.

Yang Tianzhen was touched by Zhang Tianai's persistent spirit. She was not without perseverance, but she felt that losing weight was really an act of dehumanization and something she could not persist in anyway. Moreover, the girl in front of her had only a short time. I just lost 10 pounds, which is already great.

"Wait a moment, I'll make a call first." Yang Tianzhen withdrew.

This call was made to Yang Mi, to talk about Zhang Tianai and to ask for a favor for her.

Soon, Yang Tianzhen brought good news to Zhang Tianai, "Boss Yang said that as long as you can lose less than 100 pounds, the company will sign you, but there is a prerequisite. You must lose weight healthily. We don't dare to come to the hospital to lose weight again." receive."

"Thank you, Sister Tianzhen!" Zhang Tianai was so moved that his eyes became wet. He only lost five pounds, which is almost equivalent to being hired in advance.

In the Yang family, Yang Mi waved her hands and finally signed 100 autographed photos. This was requested by her parents. They had packed their luggage, picked up Yang Mi's photos and were about to set off.

Now Yang Mi is so popular that there are too many relatives and friends coming home to ask for autographs, so I have to trouble her.

Today, my parents are going on a trip with their uncle and aunt, and the people in the group are all acquaintances, so these photos will come in handy.

"Xiaochun, let's go!" Yang's mother said.

"I'm Yang Mi!"

As for Yang Mi, she doesn’t want to join any sunset red tour group because she has to stay at home, so the egg yolks have to be raised by her.

This dog is growing very fast. He is only one and a half years old and already weighs 80 pounds, which is slightly lighter than Yang Mi.

Maybe it's the police dog's genes, or maybe it's because he was trained by Lao Yang. The dog is very well-behaved and obeys orders, so Yang Mi doesn't have to worry about it at all.

She took the egg yolk back to her new neighborhood, and happened to see Li Xiaolu coming towards her holding a teddy.

This little teddy was no taller than Egg Yolk's legs, but its bark was so arrogant that even Egg Yolk, who was well-trained, didn't even look at it.

"Mimi, where did you get this local dog from?"

Li Xiaolu originally wanted to make friends with Yang Mi, they bought a community, and Yang Mi is now also a celebrity in the entertainment industry.

However, this broken mouth really can't speak and is still a native dog. Yang Mi replied, "His father is a retired police dog. What a native dog. This is called a Chow Chow. Egg yolk clears obstacles."

Egg Yolk immediately kicked away the little Teddy who was shouting at its feet, and jumped far away with one kick.

"Ah, baby!"

Yang Mi smiled and said, "Oh, it's okay, Miss Lu. It's normal for children to play and fight."

Li Xiaolu: You call this big dog a child!

But Li Xiaolu wasn't done yet, "Mimi, it's dangerous for a girl to raise such a big dog. How about raising a little teddy as well. The Qin Lan and Huo Siyan I know both raise teddy dogs."

Yang Mi said, "No, this is a gift from Brother Quan. One of them is enough."

"Brother Quan? Director Wang Quan?"

"Otherwise," Yang Mi knelt down and touched the egg yolk, "Let's go, Miss Lu."

After returning home, Yang Mi let go of the egg yolk. After thinking for a while, she took out her camera and took some handsome photos of the egg yolk, then imported them into her computer, posted them on Weibo, and wrote: My egg yolks are so handsome. Just like the werewolf in "Twilight 2", hahaha!

Brother Quan asked her to use Weibo more. She was very obedient and insisted on posting five or six posts every day. In addition to posting beautiful photos of herself and stills from "Time 1997", she would also forward Brother Quan's Weibo posts.

Wang Quan’s Weibo mainly focuses on work content, and both of them now have over 100,000 followers.

After Weibo came out, Sina was crazy about diverting traffic from blogs to Weibo. As the first celebrities to register accounts, the number of fans of the two was far ahead of others.

Not long after she posted it, there were many replies and forwards. Now she is very popular. The ratings of "Time 1997" have surpassed that of "Enter Guandong". It is a phenomenon-level TV series with many and active fans.

Among this group of fans, one person sent her a private message: Sister Mimi, follow me, I am xixi.

xixi? Yang Mi replied: Are you Sissi?

"I'm Xixi!"

Yang Mi: Meixi?

"yes!"

Yang Mi immediately followed the other party and started chatting in private messages. Only then did she realize that Wang Quan, her eldest niece, had become the president of her fan club.

Yang Mi worriedly asked, "Won't you delay your studies?"

Mei Xi, "With my grades, Tsinghua University and Peking University will not be a problem, and I don't have any ambition to get into the top spot."

Yang Mi: These top academics are so irritating!

Meixi doesn’t have a particular fan of Yang Mi, she’s just her aunt, who is a fan or not, to be honest, she also has an account as the vice president of the Liu Yifei Fans Support Association, which focuses on being a fan of both the rain and the dew.

Mei Xi, "I'm on vacation anyway. Sister Mimi, what can we do for you from our fan support club?"

Yang Mi, ""Crazy Supermarket" will be released in a few days, everyone can help promote it more."

"No problem, it will definitely sell well!"

Yang Mi was browsing other people's Weibo when Zeng Jia suddenly called, "Mimi, great news!"

"What's wrong?"

Zeng Jia, "Isn't it the Golden Eagle Award next month? They are looking for a Golden Eagle goddess!"

Since 2004, the Golden Eagle has been held every two years. In 2006, the Golden Eagle Goddess appeared for the first time. The first one was Liu Yifei, and now it is 2008.

Yang Mi was very confident, "Oh, you just decided on me?"

Zeng Jia, "Not yet, Li Xiaolu and Wang Luodan are also the main candidates."

Both of them became very popular thanks to "Struggle", which is not much worse than Yang Mi before "Time 1997".

Yang Mi, "What does the Golden Eagle Festival mean?"

"The other party is quite hesitant. The power behind Li Xiaolu and the others is not weak. I heard that one of the leaders is thinking that this time, Li Xiaolu, you will be the next one."

The next term will be two years later. Yang Mi feels that she needs to build momentum now, and she cannot wait for two years.

"Maybe I won't film any TV series next time. Does that still make sense? Just tell them that if I don't get into this time, I won't get into it in the future. I would be very embarrassed to be ranked behind Liu Yifei. "

At this time, Liu Yifei had just registered the trumpet "I am not Liu Yifei" on Weibo, and was liking and commenting on Yang Mi's latest Weibo: The yolk is so cute, she is so strong, I want to move~

Then Yang Mi told Mei Xi about the Golden Eagle girl.

Mei Xi was at home. After thinking about it, she vaguely mentioned to her father Mayo about the Golden Eagle Goddess.

Mayo was immediately inspired by this incident and contacted the Golden Eagle Awards program team the next day.

Since there are several candidates, why not have a vote? Since you want to vote, Weibo is perfect. We have just developed a voting template!

Wang Quan also found out about this incident later and thought that Brother Ao would cause trouble. Yang Mi, Wang Luodan, and Li Xiaolu are all the most popular actresses after Liu Yifei now. If these people had a fight on Weibo, it would definitely be a disaster. The number of registrations can skyrocket, the Golden Eagle Festival can also gain huge attention, and the three actresses can also gain a large number of fans, which benefits everyone.

Then he continued to be busy with his work, and received a call from Dorothy at noon, asking him to check the latest email.

Wang Quan glanced at the email and frowned. It was an email from the MPAA forwarded by Dorothy. He clicked on it and saw the rating opinions for "Slumdog Millionaire" written on it.

R-rated (restricted)!
