Chapter 1023 The Premiere Begins
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it will be June 28, the day when "Battle of Chibi" and "Assassin" will be released at the same time.
Director Wu Zixu and a group of leading actors arrived in Los Angeles in the morning to prepare for the premiere at the MGM Theater.
During the meal, Wang Guoan asked, "Yunhai, do you think we can do Paramount's "Assassin"?"
When the others heard this, they all looked at Xiao Yunhai.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "It seems that everyone's confidence is not very high?"
Wu Zixu cried and laughed: "If we were in China, we would of course be full of confidence. Even if it was a movie more powerful than "Assassin", we would not be afraid. Not much, I really don’t have a bottom in my heart.”
Xiao Yunhai said: "Don't worry, I don't think it's worse than "Assassin". I'm not boasting, my first foreign language album has sold tens of millions in Europe and the United States, and there are countless fans. With them, I believe It should be no problem. In fact, the most important thing for a movie is word of mouth. As long as the word of mouth is good, our "Battle of Chibi" will definitely win the final victory."
This isn't really bragging.
Xiao Yunhai's music album, which combines Jackson and Elvis' songs, is a complete mess. Almost every video store is playing his music. Break dancing, mechanical dance, and air walks have become compulsory subjects for all dance lovers. It can be said that there is no one in Europe and the United States who does not know Xiao Yunhai. His homepage has tens of millions of fans, which is simply frightening to death.
Fans and fans often overlap, and those die-hard fans who like Xiao Yunhai madly will definitely come to support movies starring idols.
However, it may be difficult to do "Assassin" in the early stage.
Wu Zixu said with a smile: "I hope so. Come, let's toast to the success of "Battle of Chibi"."
"cheers.
"
At 7:30 that night, Xiao Yunhai and others came to the MGM Cinema, and there was already a long queue inside.
Seeing Xiao Yunhai, the fans cheered and surrounded him.
Due to time constraints, Xiao Yunhai did not sign for everyone, but took Zhang Ying together.
After the filming, Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "Brothers and sisters, thank you for your support for our "Battle of the Red Cliffs", the movie is about to start, everyone should queue up to buy tickets first. If you feel that after watching the movie, "Battle of Chibi" is good, so please recommend it to your relatives and friends. You know, I also have a strong opponent "Assassin"."
The fans all laughed.
Zhao Yun and Li Shangming said enviously: "When will I have so many fans in America?"
Wang Guoan patted him on the shoulder and said, "If we want to get to his level, we can't do it anymore. You are still very hopeful. Sharpen your acting skills and wait for your own opportunity. Maybe it won't take two years. , you too can be a world superstar."
Li Shangming nodded and said, "Thank you Teacher Wang for your encouragement, I will definitely keep working hard."
Wu Zixu turned his head and glanced at him admiringly, but there was a sigh in his heart. Li Shangming was seven or eight years older than Xiao Yunhai, and if he wanted to catch up with him, he might not be able to catch up with him in this life. In fact, it's more than him, the whole world of the film industry, not to mention young artists under the age of thirty-five, including those old guys who have acted all their lives, who would dare to say that he is comparable to Xiao Yunhai.
He's a monster even more evil than a monster.
Just after dismissing the entanglement of the fans, Xiao Yunhai saw Kerry walking over with a hot beauty in his arms.
"Xiao, it seems that there are a lot of fans who came to watch the movie. I heard that 60% of the tickets for the first two shows have been sold tonight. For a Chinese movie, it's already very good. "Xiao Cui" is better than "Xiao Cui". not up."
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "This is good news. Then do you know how "Assassin" is?"
Kerry touched his nose and smiled bitterly: "Are you just looking for excitement?"
Xiao Yunhai asked: "It seems that their grades are very good. Hehe, just say it, it doesn't matter, this little stimulation will not have any effect on me."
Kerry said: "I heard people say that the first movie tickets of "Assassin" have been sold out, and there are only some bad spots left in the second one. No way, the heroine of "Assassin" is the most beautiful goddess in Hollywood, Anne Winslet, she's the dream of all American men."
Anne Winslet, only twenty-six years old, is an actress at Warner Bros.
A few years ago, she debuted in a TV series and quickly became a big star in Hollywood with her outstanding acting skills, elegant temperament, perfect figure and beautiful appearance.
Later, she filmed three literary films in succession. Although the box office was not very good, her acting skills were widely praised by people in the industry.
This "Assassin" is Anne Winslet's first commercial blockbuster as the heroine, which naturally aroused the crazy pursuit of those perverts.
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "Miss Winslet's charm is indeed not comparable to those of us big men. This is not beyond my expectations."
Kerry sighed: "Hey, the worst is for us at MGM. In two days, we have a comedy movie coming out. I've seen this movie, and I laughed almost from the beginning to the end, and I gave it a thumbs up. I have high hopes. It's a pity that I ran into you so undeadly, and it's miserable now."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Don't say that, maybe we will be overturned by your movie."
Kriche snorted and said, "Are you so comforting? A film directed by a newcomer, starring a newcomer, with an investment of less than 10 million US dollars. If you want to kill two blockbusters, what an international joke."
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said: "Okay, stop talking nonsense, let's go in and have a look. I hope the fans' reactions can surprise us."
When they came to a movie hall, Xiao Yunhai and others all sat down, and after a while, the movie started.
The foreign language version that Wu Zixu spent a lot of energy on is very different from the domestic version.
During the screening, Xiao Yunhai found that the fans paid the most attention to the war scenes inside, such as the city attack and defense, Zhao Zilong riding the savior alone, the transformation of various battle formations, etc., which can cause everyone's exclamations from time to time. Especially the huge gossip array at the end made all fans take a deep breath.
Two hours later, the film ended with applause and cheers.
"It's great, the cold weapon battle of "Battle of Chibi", I was stunned to see it."
"My favorite is the gossip array. It's too mysterious. So many people rushed in, and they all died. Awesome."
"That Zhao Zilong was the most powerful, he just rushed out with a spear and saved the king's son."
"I found that China's war films are very different from Hollywood war films. They have various tactics, and they pay attention to cooperation. While Hollywood pays attention to momentum, it is more about fighting alone. I have to say, Huaxia 5000 The civilization nurtured by years of history is indeed not comparable to other countries."
Some editors, film critics and experts who came to watch the film were also discussing with each other.
"This film is incredible. It doesn't seem easy for "Assassin" to win it."
"That's right. The director of this film is very skilled. The war scenes are grand and majestic, but the details are delicate. It's amazing."
"I think the actors in it are even more incredible. Everyone's acting skills are very good. If I were an Oscar judge, there would be at least four actors nominated for Best Supporting Actor."
"What's more important is that this movie, like "Xiao Cui", doesn't have any sense of disobedience. Hehe, I thought "Assassin" would be able to kill the opponent with home field advantage, but I didn't expect to encounter a big hedgehog. Well, "Assassin" will also be covered in blood by this big hedgehog."
Xiao Yunhai's ears were smart, and when he heard everyone's discussion, he felt relieved a little.
In the Paramount Cinema, the cheers continued.
The selling point of this movie is the incredible killing method, which is neat and unpretentious. Every time the protagonist kills a person with some unique method, it will cause fans to exclaim.
If Xiao Yunhai sees it, it is estimated that he will find that it is quite similar to the previous life "The Mechanic", but the scene is more popular and the plot is more exciting.
After the premiere, Hanks said to the film creators in high spirits: "If everyone has nothing to do, how about we go to have a late night snack and celebrate?"
Everyone agreed.
Just kidding, Paramount's boss's invitation, even if there is something, must be put aside first.
Only Anne Winslet shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, it's getting late, so I won't go."
For Anne Winslet for not showing her face in public, Hanks did not show any displeasure, but said with a smile: "Miss Winslet, it's such a pity that you don't go with us."
Anne Winslet is the niece of Warner President Steve Bickers, and she is no worse than Hanks.
This Warner is not Michael Eisner's Warner Films, but Time Warner, the parent company behind it, the entertainment media empire.
Michael Eisner is at best a shareholder of Warner, and cannot be compared to Steve Bickers in any way.
Although according to assets, Steer is not afraid of Time Warner, or even far more, but still no one is willing to be an enemy of Time Warner, because they have the biggest weapon - propaganda.
There are their branches in all regions of the world. If they are really enemies with Time Warner, unless Stell makes no mistakes, as long as they catch a glimpse of it, it will spread to the world at the fastest speed. You will be in trouble.
Of course, this does not mean that Steer will be afraid of Time Warner.
The two large multinational companies generally resolve disputes through negotiation unless they encounter unresolved conflicts.
Anne Winslet smiled and said, "I'm so sorry, I like quiet on weekdays, goodbye everyone."
After finishing speaking, Anne Winslet, accompanied by her assistant and bodyguard, got into a luxury car and left the theater.
Hanks looked at the slowly leaving car, a hint of obscenity flashed in his eyes, and swore in his heart that he would definitely get this woman full of infinite charm.
