Chapter 318: Big winner!


"Oh, this is really incredible"
The propellers of the blasting helicopters turned high and made a huge roar, flying slowly in the clear blue sky. This is the county town of Xunyang County, Shaanxi Province, China. The film crew of "Firefly" is performing aerial photography. From a high altitude, the county town located between the green mountains and the green water has a peculiar appearance and a curved water circulation, just like the shape of a Tai Chi map, so it is also known as "natural Tai Chi city" here.
Since the director did not reveal his intentions too much, he did n’t know much about the Chinese culture in the East. Few people on the helicopter knew the meaning of the viewfinder, but only felt that the scenery was beautiful. Harry-George of the camera asked, "What does this mean?" Wang Yang, who also fastened his seat belt, stood next to the cabin door and looked down at the Tai Chi City, smiling, saying: "Zhengxie, good and evil are like this Yin Yang. ... Continue shooting! Dive into the camera. "
He wanted this Tai Chi City scene just to express the view of sublimating the whole Firefly, what kind of world is a beautiful world? The Tai Chi picture is one of the views: the complete good and the complete evil are inhuman.
This is actually involved in classic films such as "The Orange" and "Seven Deadly Sins". Is it good or bad? Perhaps the coexistence of the two is human nature. Of course, people who do not understand Chinese culture will not know the meaning of Tai Chi at once, but he needs this.
In order to achieve the integration of Cowboy Ten East, his attempt was to be wild, the theme is unified but the mood is clear, and the scenes of the picture are all poetic, letting the character story go in; instead of making too many changes in the collection style, causing a deformity The fourth is not like birth. He wanted the feeling of being "quiet if he was virgin, moving like a rabbit". Tai Chi is a part of "quiet" and a part of the East. Many things do not need to be explained, but it is put there and waiting for others to dig out.
It was already 4 years and August. After completing the framing work of Taiji City and the Loess Plateau in Shaanxi Province, Wang Yang continued to take the film crew to Zhangjiajie, Hunan to take pictures of the beautiful scenery. The filming of Firefly in China has caused many media fans doubts. What is the relationship between the western cowboys of the plains and deserts and the Chinese mountains and rivers with almost completely different flavors? The miraculous figure naturally attracted the attention of many Chinese entertainment media, hoping to get interviews to calm down the needs of fans.
However, this time I set foot in the land of China, not to promote visits or play. The work schedule of the crew was tight. Wang Yang had to rush back to take care of Jessica, so there was no interview, only an entertainment interview on NetEase.com. Fans say hello to Zhangjiajie. When he arrived in Zhangjiajie, he made an exclusive interview with the headline of the entertainment version of "Xiaoxiang Morning News". In fact, it had almost the same questions as NetEase. Daybreak God offers Baidu
What is the relationship between "Firefly" and China is one of the must-have questions. In the coffee shop of Zhangjiajie Sunshine Hotel, the reporter Hou Jian who was responsible for this interview did just that.
"Yes," Firefly "will have a lot of Chinese elements." Wang Yang nodded, lifted his coffee cup to take a sip, and continued to laugh and said, "You will see Chinese characters, Chinese characters, etc. There will be less of the beauty we have shot now, including the mountains in Zhangjiajie will appear in the movie, but you may not recognize the specific ones, because we will also modify and synthesize later, and move those mountains to another. Planet earth. In fact, the whole story background is inseparable from Eastern culture. "
"This should be your first attempt to add more Chinese elements to the directed film. Why is this? What does this change signal mean?" Hou Jian quickly recorded the answer of the big director and asked again There was a problem.
Wang Yang shrugged with a smile and chatted from the beginning: "When I got the first edition of Joss-Weyden's script, he set it up like this. A Chinese and American culture influenced and merged with each other. The world. Joss Weiden and his wife have lived in China for a while. He likes to appreciate traditional Chinese culture. These oriental elements can make the story and the future world more mysterious. He is right, then this It ’s my strength, I like the story of the script, and there are many new ideas; Chinese culture needless to say, it fascinated me very early, so I ’m happy to do this experiment, it ’s really great.

"I know that" Firefly "has set a lot of new records for you, with the highest production cost, the longest shooting time, and the largest number of participants ..." Hou Jian counted several records and asked Wang Yang: "But at the same time, before you Carrying a lot of pressure and accusation, will "Firefly" prove your film again? What do you think? "Wang Yang immediately shook his head slightly:" I don't think so much now, I just want to make the movie well And have more time to spend with their family. "
Thinking of the journey this year, he smiled again: "But this time there is indeed more pressure, but only a small part of these pressures are from the outside voice; most of it is the movie itself, for me, It is unprecedentedly challenging. As for the record ... "He laughed:" I hope it can continue to set more personal new records! The direction of large numbers is not the lowest. "
"Haha!" Hou Jian also smiled for a while, looked at the book, and then asked: "Not long ago, your wife Jessica Alba was too tired to suffer from acute nephritis and fell ill. Later it was said You completed the remaining martial arts shots for her, which is a topic that everyone cares about. "
"Yeah, thank you all for your attention. She is recovering well now." Wang Yang thanked and drank. Coffee, thinking of the hard martial arts shooting, laughed: "I can't say substitution, I played another male role, just adjusted the proportion of the lens. I think this is also a Chinese element, everyone must go to the cinema next year Look, because I did play very well and cool, haha. "
After doing a few more questions and answers on "Firefly", Hou Jian asked the necessary questions: "The new film" Ambush in Ten Sides "directed by Zhang Yimou was released on July 16th. During your time in China, you have to watch Have you ever? "Wang Yang shook his head and replied:" No, the crew's schedule is relatively tight. I haven't seen it yet. But I know it is going to participate in the Toronto Film Festival next month. I will go to watch it. And Zhang Yimou is a Great director, his pictures are very beautiful. "
"How is your impression of Hunan?" Hou Jian continued the necessary questions, and Wang Yang replied with praise: "Hunan gives me the impression that it is very beautiful. It ’s a deep historical and cultural heritage. I have n’t seen it elsewhere, but Zhangjiajie is a very nice and charming city.

Space Cowboy! Not fresh enough? Plus the mysterious East! Just when the crew of "Firefly" completed the framing of Zhangjiajie and was about to return to Los Angeles, its official website suddenly announced a detailed world background. The earth people immigrated to the new galaxy, China and the United States formed the Star Alliance government, the war broke out, and the independents were defeated. 3. The mysterious emergence of predators "This time, because the propaganda work of the huge and complex flame film background did not follow the mysterious route of the" Ninth District ", but it was widely advertised, which made more people impress and produce the background setting. Interests. Daybreak God offers Baidu
However, if you want to get more information about characters such as Riva, Blue Gloves, and more comic concept pictures, set stills, etc. on the official website, you still have to play some viral marketing games. This is also the enthusiasm to encourage fans. At present, Jessica Alba is the most popular, and the largest number of people participate in the unblocking Riva's viral marketing game; followed by Robert Downey Jr., Wang Yang, Heath Ledger, Michael Pitt and others. The difficulty of marketing games depending on popularity is naturally different.
And now the "Cowboy + East" announced! Fans and fans finally understood why Chinese characters were printed on the Tranquility ship, and why they wanted to go to China to film the role of Wu Yanzu and even Wang Yang ... but they didn't understand, what is this? "Shanghai Noon"? In the list of science fiction adventure movies, no space cowboys are found, nor can any space ten cowboys ten east. Even the media critics who wanted to sing him did not know where to start.
"It's so ridiculous and funny! Can you imagine how the rough cowboy was wearing a cheongsam? Heard that this was originally the idea of ​​Jos-Weyden. He was a smart man who knew how to do what he wanted, and he was completely buried. The arrogant and arrogant miraculous. "Jeffrey Westphoff ’s consistent style has been satirized in a timely manner on his blog, which attracted the fans and fans to click and scold. It's not that he laughed at him alone. Many online film critics who are temporarily under Yang Hei have moved a lot: "It seems that Wang Yang is in a burning period.", "He is completely unclear about what he is doing." ...
"Very exciting! This is a setting full of novelty and fun. I believe that Miracle Young will bring a big surprise." Netizen Chris F commented on the official website in this way, most of the fan fans are interested, because the director is not who, It's the magical Yang of "Everything will be done". What happened to the cowboy? What's wrong with the East? They have confidence in Wang Yang! Foye J wrote: "If you have a style like" Star Wars "," Interstellar Travel "or even" Interstellar Gate ", what's the point? At least the setting of" Firefly "is very new and unique! Looking forward to seeing trailer"
No amount of data settings, concept maps and stills can compare with the visual appeal of a trailer. The wonderfulness of trailers and flowers has always been of great influence. However, the advance trailer of `` Firefly '' was not released so quickly.It is not the framing of Plum Blossom Forest. The crew has just officially finished. Obviously, the image engine team needs a long time to complete the special effects production. Wang Yang is already preparing. At the stage, detailed requirements were submitted and follow-up supervisors will be followed, but after leading the team to film for more than 4 months, we have ushered in the time of rest and vacation.
At the end of this summer, the quadrennial Olympic Games are being held in Athens, Greece. Wang Yang sees that Jessica ’s physical indicators are recovering well and can cope with leisurely travel, so he calls her father and mother, father-in-law, and a big family I went to Athens to watch the Olympic Games. While Joshua had to have some free time with Alexis, hurry up for a date to maintain a love affair, no peers.
The Olympic Games has already opened on August 13th. Wang Yang and his team arrived in Athens and started the happy Olympic journey. On August 19th, the emerging network technology potential stock Google boarded the 6 Nasdaq at a price per unit. Shares of 85 US dollars, closed at .34 US dollars that day, an increase of 18% in the past, this time raised a total of 1.67 billion US dollars. Because he is absolutely optimistic about Google, Wang Yang, the best guest in the t industry, and Google's multi-singer, did not sit back and pay a little bit of money to invest. His private brokerage team became the most active person in the market and successfully became a shareholder. one.
If the background of "T Realm" has brought more respect to Wang Yang in Hollywood, although rich companies can not make good movies, just like Bill Gates will not be a director but "Zhi", " Unexpectedly, the magical Yang which has done both is undoubtedly particularly capable: But for Silicon Valley, although the magical Yang used the Internet to complete the "ghost virus marketing" to earn the first pot of gold, he also tapped the ggen horse. However, apart from a few characters, many people hold a contemptuous attitude towards him, t is not a filmmaker who will just engage in ggen, just hit the big luck, and sings. Yahoo can see the level of this Hollywood director. When Yang Zhiyuan was worse.
Yahoo is at the level of the sky, but the newly listed Google has been splashed with a lot of cold water, and it has a large influence on the institutional shareholder service company ... proposed a flaw in Google ’s corporate governance measures, in the total score of "corporate governance In the "Coefficient", it rated Google 0.2, almost zero, which is lower than all other companies in the S & P number.
Because (US Securities and Exchange Commission) is still investigating 31-year-old Sergey Brin and 31-year-old Larry Page who were interviewed by Playboy before, their behavior is likely to violate relevant regulations. Therefore, Brin and Page and the entire Google were thrown into the "small black house". The company must maintain a "silent period" before the second public trip, even if they want to say a few explanations, they can't speak.
At this time, Wang Yang, who has not yet become a Google shareholder and was shooting in China, was back in the room after finishing the exclusive interview of Xiaoxiang Morning News, staying in the early morning, while talking with Jessica on the blog while singing more on the blog Now: "It's great to see that Google's corporate governance coefficient is o.2, and if it is o, it will be better! Who hasn't seen it yet? Google has shown the current price of 85 US dollars in 6 years. This is not a chaotic management. A bad backward company, but a company that broke all the traditional rules and spelled all other companies in the S & P index. This is called youth, strength, Google! "
Obviously, if you are optimistic that the stock is preparing to buy a lot, but it is very unwise to sing, but Wang Yang may be an occupational disease, maybe he has participated in interviews and awards ceremonies. If you sing too much by yourself, there will be a bunch of people rushing to buy it.
Sure enough, many people thought he wanted to be short; and Google is a very arrogant company, and most analysts believe that its stock price will fluctuate greatly. This is because the shareholder's future development of the company No control. Google founders, executives, board members, and employees hold shares equal to ten shares of public shares, and founders Brin, Page, and Xi Executive Schmidt hold 37.6% of the company's voting rights. The management team and directors in general hold 61.4% of the voting rights. This is tantamount to saying that they took your money and did not make up for your participation; Google is not yet ready to provide future financial forecasts, and it sounds nice: "The company will make decisions based on long-term interests, not short-term interests."
Many shareholders are very annoyed by this, but Wang Yang is very happy, and he did not have the idea of ​​joining Google ’s board of directors. Buying Google is solely for investing to make money, so as to have more sufficient power to support the flame group ’s exhibition. The money can't be earned. It's almost the same after more than one number, and he already has a lot now. If you want to search for business every day, it's really annoying. But knowing the huge potential of Google, Wang Yang was also very happy to see someone make money for him, so he bought a golden egg and a new Google shareholder was born.
Not only did Wang Yang buy it himself, such a good investment opportunity might as well be introduced to his family. Some good friends who wanted to make an investment knew that, but Natalie Portman said that she wanted to buy the stock of Flame Movies most.
Indeed, many people want to buy the stock of Flame Movies. This independent film company has amazing industry achievements. In the six years since its establishment, all large-scale film screenings have never lost a record of losing money, but have repeatedly created box office miracles. The medal list of the Athens Olympics changes every day. The championships, runner-ups and runner-ups of various events continue to emerge, and the last few North American weekly box office champions of the o4 summer holiday have also fallen.
The winner of the July-August 5th fell on the head of the "Mysterious Village" of Bowei Company. This 10,000-cost thriller suspense film is directed by m-night Shamaran with the title of "genius director". After receiving 690,000 yuan, it seems that the cost recovery is not a problem. However, with "The Sixth Sense of Insanity" turned out, and then experienced the "non-dead robbery" quite satisfactory, Jiang Lang of "Tianzhao" was only suspicious. This time, he got another 34%, 48% freshness and 59% likes Malan, in a voice of disappointment, sarcasm, and pity, the name of genius collapsed and was labeled as a director.
The so-called climb is as high as it feels when it falls down. "Meaningless", "Idiot", "Another work that overestimates Sonet Shamaran, mediocre, and insane." "New York "Observer", "Salon", "New Yorker" and other popular media are not polite. Everyone knows that if another magical bby's "Firefly" that is more talented and has fun in the world of t has such a trace of unsatisfactory, what is waiting for it must be a storm. The champion on August 6-12 belongs to "To Kill with a Knife" starring Tom Cruise, August 13-19 is "Alien vs. Predator", August-26 is "The Exorcist"; Athens Olympics On August 29th, the United States, China and Russia won the top three in the gold medal list. Google's stock price rose daily, and the last week of the summer vacation on August 27-September 2 was won by the hero of Miramax and Zhang Yimou.
Take away at 23.72 million box office.
From the warm-up in late April, the beginning of May to the end of August, everyone who has read this year ’s transcript of this summer vacation will find a lot of "f1me-f1m" passion flames in this midsummer. Three films of Century 2, Raging Speed, and Hangover 2 are here. Among the North American weekly box office champions, they won four of May 7-13, June 11-17, June 18-24, June 25-July 1, accounting for 23.52%, and they have a continuous Three consecutive weeks of success.
Big winner! This week's box office champion puts Flame Movies on this summer's list, followed by Warner Bros., DreamWorks, Sony Corp. Columbia, Century Fox, Universal Pictures, Broadway, and Miramax.
For an independent film company, can there be more stringent requirements for a boutique strategy with only three movies? Who would n’t want to buy the stock of Flame Movies?
Since no stocks can be bought, the market that checks and balances each other can not be monopolized. A number of investors and manufacturers are not without other methods, but several unprecedented follow-up films such as `` Unprecedented Flying '' and `` Lucky Player '' all end miserably. It does n’t matter if the Warner Bros. have another bad movie, but the once-time movie king MGM is even more trapped. The box offices of big film producers and independent film producers have mixed joys and sorrows, and ps can't be found in the sadness.
Without calculating the cost of publicity, copying, transportation, etc., the total production cost of the three flames movies is 195 million, respectively 10,000, 10,000, and 10,000, but they are all crazy and sweeping the world in the same way!
"Ice Age 2" 230 million North American box office, B overseas box office, 730 million global box office, Blue Sky Studio once again announced a strong rise; "Furious Speed" 190 million North American box office, 350 million overseas box office, help 100 million global box office, a big The gold-absorbing series popular with young people in the world was born under rampage; "Hangover 2" 254 million North American box office, 327 million overseas box office, 582 million global box office, UU reading www.uukanshu. com's crazy opening result is lack of stamina because of the general reputation, but it is absolutely profitable.
Looking at this transcript, everyone feels going crazy. Flame Movies and cinema dealers are happily crazy, but the filmmakers are all kinds of tastes.The total production cost of 195 million has received 1.851 billion global. box office! This is not the final figure, because the speeding car and drunkard are still showing increasing numbers.
Next summer, the f1me-f1m, which is scheduled for the large-scale screening of the three films "Kung Fu Panda", "Firefly" and "Assassin League", will have such good luck?
No one knows now, but there is no doubt that this summer vacation has stimulated a lot of people. As time goes into September, the Toronto Film Festival will also open on September 9th, when there will be a film from outside North America and Introduce films from North America, and a total of strong films will be exhibited. Among the films that seek action, there are gems and straw, so it depends on who has the eyes.
This time, filmmakers such as Flame Movies, Lions Gate Movies, Miramax, Fox Searchlight, Focus, Newmarket, etc. have all been prepared for a long time. ! ~!
