MTL - You Made Me a Superstar-Chapter 524 Before the premiere of "Brokeback Mountain"
Chapter 524 "Brokeback Mountain" before the premiere
February 1st.
The movie "Laughing Flowers All the Way" finally sold out with a box office of 580 million.
This comedy movie has caused countless controversies along the way from its release to its release. Many filmmakers think this movie is a brainless and funny fast food movie.
Chen Kai even scolded from the release to the next drawing. Even if the box office got 580 million, Chen Kai still complained on his personal Weibo that this movie and "Crazy Stone" are two rubbish.
Four days later, on February 5th, two days before New Year's Eve, "Crazy Stone" was also drawn together with "Time Travel" with an astonishing box office of 630 million.
The overall score of "Crazy Stone" is very good, reaching 8.8 points. If there is no "Time Travel", the box office of "Crazy Stone" is very likely to cause a sensation. After all, this is the first box office in the history of Chinese movies. A 600 million comedy movie, but the box office of "Time Travel" has shocked countless movie fans and netizens in China.
The total box office of this movie has reached 1.4 billion RMB!
It's 200 million more than "Jaws"!
Seeing the 1.4 billion box office of "Time Travel" and the 600 million box office of "Crazy Stone", people are deeply aware of the incomparable horror of Hollywood movies!
but…
Although the box office of the movie "Time Travel" is amazing, it will not make people despair.
The lower paintings of these movies have freed up a lot of space for "Liao Zhai Painted Skin"...
………
"The daily box office of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" broke through 30 million again, and relevant departments and major theaters are also supporting us. Only a few small-produced films were released, and even Huaxing's "Eavesdropping" was postponed. Colleagues in the publicity department are also working very hard to create various topics, following this trend, we will soon become a new milestone for Chinese films!"
"..."
February 6th.
In the office.
Jiang Ge listened to his assistant report the new round of statistics of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin".
Django had mixed feelings in his heart.
This past January has been magical.
For Django, every day is extremely unreal, in a trance, like a very real dream.
The box office of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" is getting brighter day by day, and it has received good reviews on the Internet. It seems that I have realized my ideal in life.
【The first director of the new generation! 】
This once coveted title, when he achieved it in a real sense and stood at the so-called peak, Jiang Ge found that he was not as excited as he imagined.
Xinghui's employees looked at him strangely.
Everyone knows that "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" is produced by Xinghui, but the real core team and key personnel are all from Huaxing.
At the same time, Xinghui's top management, even Cao Bangguo, gradually became indifferent to him. He called Cao Bangguo several times, but Cao Bangguo didn't respond.
The gap between him and Cao Bangguo became deeper and deeper, and it vaguely became an insurmountable gully.
"I know it's difficult for you to accept it for a while, but without Zhou Yang's help, your "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" may not be able to produce such an effect."
"Django, wake up, you are a director, and a very talented director at that, and the mission of a director is to make good movies..."
Zhou Yilin saw Jiang Ge's complicated emotions, and at the end of January, he talked to him about many topics.
After listening to Django, although he was filled with endless unwillingness, he finally chose to remain silent.
He thought he was familiar with this world, but after getting in touch with this world, he found that this world began to become more and more complicated and more and more confusing.
Feng Kai still calls him every day.
He heard rumors from the company that someone was saying that he might betray Xinghui, so he didn't answer Feng Kai's call.
But even so, he is still distrusted by the company.
This is a countermeasure!
This is Hua Xing's countermeasure!
He is not an idiot. He wanted to chat with Xinghui's boss Li Zhongjun several times, but since "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" was released, he has never seen Li Zhongjun again, not even some non-essential meetings. People invite him.
"I want to talk to Mr. Li..."
The assistant was still reporting the various data of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin", and said that this movie will be shown overseas as an export movie, but Django didn't have any intention to listen to it.
He immediately put on his clothes, left the office, and walked towards Li Zhongjun's office.
………
"Mr. Bunter, please stay and help me!"
"Mr. Zhou Yang, I only help you for one month, and now it's overtime..."
"But "Spider-Man" needs you, and I need you!"
"..."
American.
"Spider-Man" crew.
James Bunter was going to help Zhou Yang for a month.
Today is the time to say goodbye.
However, when he was about to get up to say goodbye to Zhou Yang, he saw Zhou Yang happily walking over with a bottle of white wine, and cooking a large table of dishes himself.
At first it was said to be a farewell wine. After seeing Zhou Yang's enthusiasm, James Bond nodded. The hospitality was hard to bear, and he ate dinner with Zhou Yang.
The meals were very delicious, and every dish was something that James Bunter had never eaten before, and he had a great appetite unconsciously!
Night falls.
Zhou Yang, who had always been taciturn at the dinner table, was very talkative as if he had been a different person, and every word he said made James Bunter feel very happy, which made him open up the chatterbox in an instant, and unconsciously chatted about his life. The days when I was a truck driver.
When he was young, James Bond liked to watch movies. Later, when everyone was not optimistic, he resolutely changed careers and became a director.
Don’t look at James Bunter’s talent, he became a hit when he filmed "Night of the Living Dead", but he also experienced various twists and turns and despair...
I don’t know if it’s because of alcohol or other reasons. Zhou Yang seems to make James Bond very eager to talk. He didn’t even think that he would tell Zhou Yang some dusty past events one by one...
While talking, he was drinking, and then, before he knew it, James Bunter was drunk.
"Mr. Bunter, I have a dream. Although this dream seems ridiculous to you, I do have such a dream. I want to make a movie in my heart..."
"In addition to "Spider-Man", I actually have another movie called "The Silence of the Lambs". I want to ask you to be a consultant!"
"..."
In a daze, for some reason, after hearing Zhou Yang's words, James Bond felt that Zhou Yang resembled his former self.
It’s all about the movie so devoutly, so eagerly…
The situation is the same, they are all struggling to climb up step by step under such circumstances that they are not favored and suppressed by everyone.
He was extremely moved, and seemed to want to cry, but in the end, his rationality told him that he should be calm, absolutely calm.
Then…
He heard Zhou Yang talking about "The Silence of the Lambs". After talking about "The Silence of the Lambs", James Bond became interested in it, and this interest was much stronger than "Spider-Man"!
But he still told himself that he must be calm.
Zhou Yang’s current situation is actually very bad. He is going to fight Hollywood alone, or create another Hollywood!
This is so ridiculous, it's laughable!
This is unrealistic, not only unrealistic, it is even very likely to fail, and eventually return to China in despair.
Star Ocean Cinema’s distribution of movies these days, James Bond has actually been paying attention to the movies these days. The total box office is terrible, and no one in the Hollywood market watches it...
However, this calm gradually began to collapse in the early morning.
Zhou Yang was still chattering with him, as if this young man always had endless energy to spend.
His eyes became hotter and hotter, and his voice became louder...
Vaguely, he seemed to have heard Zhou Yang talk about a lot of movie ideas, but these ideas were only half discussed, and then, unconsciously, his appetite was whetted.
This night, he listened to Zhou Yang talking all night.
Because of being drunk, Zhou Yang had forgotten a lot of the movie ideas he mentioned, but when he sobered up the next day, he suddenly had a more absurd idea in his mind.
The afternoon of February 8th.
James Bunter rubbed his drowsy head, then looked at Zhou Yang who was directing the filming of "Spider-Man".
He found strangely that he was drunk, but Zhou Yang didn't seem to be drunk at all, and then he suddenly realized that last night, he was the one who was drinking, and Zhou Yang was talking.
He smiled wryly, but still walked forward.
"Mr. Zhou Yang..."
"Mr. Bunter!"
"you win!"
After seeing Zhou Yang's surprised expression, he let out a long sigh.
He knew he fell into the pit.
"Thank you, Mr. Bunter!"
"Sometimes I really want to chop your head open with something. I want to know what is hidden inside. I find it even more incredible. I actually think you can succeed! There is a one in ten thousand possibility, I think you Can succeed..." James Bunter then shook his head, and he himself felt incredible: "But just because you won, it doesn't mean that I will stay and help you now..."
"That…"
"I'm going to wait until February 15th and watch a movie first."
"what movie?"
""Brokeback Mountain"! Mr. Zhou Yang, are you the screenwriter of this movie?"
"..."
After hearing James Bunter's question, Zhou Yang was silent at first, then nodded.
James Bunter laughed: "After watching this movie, I'll be sure about your chances of success!"
"What about before February 15th?"
"Hey, let's help you work again for free..."
………
February 10th.
"Brokeback Mountain", the promotional poster of this movie quietly boarded the reports of various Hollywood media.
People with a niche orientation are ecstatic.
But the movie didn't make a splash, and it didn't make waves.
Although Mary Vine is well-known in the international film circle, she is not an influential director in Hollywood.
At first, no one paid attention to this movie, after all, it was just an ordinary movie...
until.
February 15th.
Brokeback Mountain Premiere…
