Chapter 59: Dinner


Chapter 59 Dinner
Wang Yang and Jessica ’s love exposure incident is known all over the world. At the same time, the sixth week screening and the third week of the large-scale screening of "High School Musical" also ended. The week from May 28 to June 3 , It received 3.24162 million box office, continued to rank second in the weekly list, the total box office has reached 161.5 billion US dollars, just brush Wang Yang North America's single high box office personal records, of course, before the "Ghost Record"
1.6 billion.
The leader in the weekly ranking is naturally "Star Wars-The Phantom Crisis", and its momentum continues to be crazy, sweeping 81.614 million US dollars in a week; and "Notting Hill" released this week also has a good performance and is accounted for. 244.06 million, ranking third, Julia Roberts's charm is unstoppable. As her hard-core fan, Zachary has repeatedly invited Wang Yang to watch it.
Wang Yang felt very strange about this. Two big men went to the cinema to watch a love movie "Notting Hill"? Not "Broken Mountain"! Upon questioning, it turned out that Zachary wanted him to come with Jessica, and Jessica's good friend Eileen Elis. Zachary actively pursued Eileen, but Eileen didn't pay much attention to him, but when he was a "good friend", he also refused his invitation to go to the movies together.
What a good idea! Wang Yang did not agree to Zachary ’s request, but gave a singular idea. He asked Jessica to ask Eileen to watch it together, and then made an appointment, then Zachary appeared, and Zachary appeared, leaving the rest to Zachary. Cary himself.
At the same time, the soundtrack album of "High School Musical" continues to suffer from crazy panic buying. The love of Wang Yang and Jessica has not affected the enthusiasm of most fans. More than 300,000 copies have been sold in the week after the record was released. If it is not the lack of supply, I am afraid that this number will double; it is shocking that in the tp100 of the one-week bard national billboard singles chart, there are even nine singles of the "High School Musical" soundtrack!
Nine singles scored tp100 at the same time, five of them scored tp40! This data swept the Guinness World Record in one fell swoop, which also made many major record companies salivate, such as "Warner" and "Baidai" have begun to ask whether the flame film has overseas cooperation intentions, which is in line with the flame film Mind.
This is different from the overseas distribution of movies. In terms of recordings, Flame Movies has no experience and connections. North America can also find a small company to cooperate with. If it is overseas, it is better to find a giant wholly-owned agent, of course, it will also share a certain profit.
Regarding the transcript of "High School Musical", many media have published comments again. The title of "Chicago Sun" is "Magic Yang 2!" It commented: "In August 1998, the" Ghost Shadow "craze began; 1999 In May, the upsurge of "Singing and Dancing" began. The short time interval is unbelievable! So in 2000, at the beginning of the century, will we see the third work of this young director? The whole work, or "High School Musical 2"? Will we see 'Magic Yang 3'? "
"New York Times" focuses on the influence of "High School Musical", which says "This is a victory for young people. Whether you like it or don't like it; whether you think it is young and sunny, or feel it Childish and boring ... everything is good, you have to admit that it has a huge influence. "
How much influence does it have? Small aspects, such as the framing school in the movie, Eastern High School in Salt Lake City, recently announced that it will be renamed as "Eastern High School"; in the larger aspect, teenagers from all over Europe are waiting to be released in July, and the movie has not been registered. There has been a wave of singing and dancing.
Wang Yang, who created this trend with one hand, became a dazzling superstar in Hollywood and even the entire United States. Commercially, his flame film company followed to become a star, from a small company on the verge of bankruptcy, to a high-quality company with an annual profit of up to 200 million; and a survey of Empire magazine "Which one do you like?" Among male idols? ", Wang Yang was at the forefront, and his limelight even overshadowed the protagonist of" High School Musical "Tom Willing.
Why is this happening? "Empire" magazine commented: "This kind of situation is very special. Generally, the director is almost 30 years old, but Yang is only 19 years old. In appearance, he looks good, has a good figure, and has a confident and mature British spirit; and he Not only the director, but also the creator of two business miracles, and thus became a young billionaire. So he became an idol of young people, there is nothing surprising. "In fact, the editor of" Empire "did not say anything, If the kid is a white man, I am afraid that if he announces his participation in the presidential election, he will be able to get a lot of votes.
The tree is quiet and the wind is constant. With the growing popularity, Wang Yang's life has also changed a lot. The big thing is that the paparazzi. Although his love affair with Jessica has been exposed, but the paparazzi did not let them go, and Cole, who changed a car, followed up, so everyone will immediately know the news that he moved to Jessica's house; Every morning and evening, he will walk with Jessica's dog walking and walking, everyone knows it.
However, the paparazzi took several days of photos of two people walking dogs, cycling, walking, and playing basketball in some community basketball courts. It is enough for these ordinary life photos to be published once in the newspaper, so as time goes by, the number of paparazzi gradually decreases, and the rest are not followed throughout the day. Most of them come here occasionally to try their luck.
In addition to the paparazzi, there is another change, that is, Wang Yang has more activities in his life and can participate in activities. For example, now he received another party invitation.
Looking at the strange phone number, Wang Yang got a little confused and said, "Hi, hello, who are you?"
"Hi, hello, is it Wang Yang? I'm Paris Hilton." There was a female voice on the phone, and she smiled: "Mr. Jon Fildimer gave me this number. Yang, I have watched "High School Musical" and it was very good. I have some questions about the movie and I want to ask you, is it okay? "
Wang Yang
Oh,
he could n’t imagine who Paris Hilton was? He complained in his heart, how could Jon's guy give his number to anyone!
At this time, Paris-Hilton continued to laugh and said: "In a few days, I am going to come to Los Angeles to hold a very fun party, just the Hilton Hotel, there is my land, no one manages." Wang Yang Slightly understood, Hilton Hotel, Paris-Hilton? Probably a Miss Qianjin. Paris said again: "Will you come to participate?"
"Party?" Wang Yang pouted and refused without hesitation: "No, thank you, I'm not going." Paris smiled and invited authentically: "Come on, you can bring your girlfriend together!" Wang Yang still refused directly: "It's really not, we don't like parties very much, you have a good time." Paris did not seem to think that he refused so simply, a little unpleasantly said: "Why? There are young people Don't people like parties? "Wang Yang smiled, a party that nobody managed? He said: "I think there are many."
"K! Bye bye!" Paris' voice was very angry. As soon as he said it, the phone hung up.
Wang Yang put down his mobile phone, shook his head with a smile on his face, and muttered: "Do young people like to go to parties?" He said with a stern voice: "Oh, yes!" He shrugged and returned to normal voice Authentic: "Really? Then I am not Wang Yang, I am Wang Oh, d-ang."
However, he will not refuse all activities. There are some activities he is happy to participate in, such as a charity dinner sponsored by the Child Protection Foundation. He received the invitation and he is also going to attend. First, he can do some good deeds; second, he can meet some people at the dinner. He heard that Robert Zemigis and Spielberg will be present, but that is his idol. He has the opportunity to meet these long-loved big directors. , Of course he was happy.
Since the dinner can be accompanied by a partner, Wang Yang is naturally preparing to go with Jessica. Jessica heard the news, but frowned, saying, "Yang, I haven't been to that occasion." Wang Yang nodded and said, "I haven't been. But everything has to go through the first time , I think we will not be less attending these events in the future. "He laughed and said:" It seems like a gold ball, Oscar ... "Jessica also smiled and said:" Okay! "Wang Yang laughed:" To Contact the makeup artist. "
The charity dinner was held at a luxury hotel in Beverly Hills. On the day of the dinner, the two were well-dressed and drove to their destination. Wang Yang is wearing a black suit, and Jessica is a young and beautiful evening dress, carrying a white handbag. They have all been carefully dressed by a makeup artist, in order to meet the occasion of a dinner party; at the same time, there will inevitably be reporters taking pictures, so they need to maintain their image.
The outside door of the bar was covered with long red carpets and railings on both sides. They were filled with media reporters from all walks of life. They took long guns and short guns and pointed the camera at the invited guests. Pressing the shutter, the dazzling flash lights everywhere.
"Hey, Yang, Jessica!" A white male reporter suddenly found Wang Yang and Jessica walking hand in hand in front of him, and immediately took a few steps, holding the telephoto lens in his hand and patting them while asking. : "Yan, Jessica, how does it feel to be in love?" Other reporters also found out that they also shifted their focus to the two.
Wang Yang and Jessica dragged their hands and walked towards the hotel with a smile on their faces, nodded to the numerous media reporters.
The reporters did not seem to want to just take pictures, they kept asking some questions: "When did you start to fall in love? Can you tell us your story?" Wang Yangzheng wanted to say a few words, and a blonde female reporter asked again: "Yang, I heard that you love Natalie very much and have written love letters to her. Do you still feel her? And Jessica, do you mind?" Wang Yang's brow moved, and he heard another The black female reporter asked: "Everyone says you will break up within a year? What do you think?"
"This question is boring!" Wang Yang interrupted the reporter and said, "Our feelings are very good." He glanced at Jessica, and Jessica also looked at him. The two smiled at each other since he After moving, they lived happily every day and their love affair grew stronger. The idea of ​​breaking up within a year is simply ridiculous! Wang Yang again said: "Thank you for your concern, but it is really not needed, and I will not answer this kind of question again."
Seeing Wang Yang's tough attitude, the reporter turned to Jessica. Jessica looked serious, saying: "I don't want to talk about personal life. Love is two people's business, not everyone's business."
"Let's talk, share your love?" The reporters are a little bit reluctant to take care of them. The two of them are reluctant to take care of themselves. They walked directly into the hotel. The reporters at the back continued to ask various questions: "Yang, you have the next Is there a plan for a movie? "," I heard that the Flame movie is going to shoot the sequel of "High School Musical", will you continue to direct it? "
The hall where the dinner is held is absolutely star-studded at this time. The guests invited at this dinner are all Hollywood famous people. Famous producers, famous directors, famous actors, men are all suits, ladies are elegant and beautiful, the dinner Before they started, they all laughed and talked separately. The hotel's waiters walked around, and there were invited journalists who were able to enter the hall, taking photos everywhere.
The young people in the audience were Wang Yang and Jessica. The two walked into the synagogue for the first time. They looked at the celebrities in the audience. Although they were themselves, they were still nervous and cried secretly. In one breath.
A waiter pushed the drink and asked with a smile: "Sir, ma'am, do you need a drink?" Wang Yang and Jessica both smiled and shook their heads: "No, thank you." They are not of legal drinking age, if they drink here After being photographed by the reporter, it was another trouble. The waiter
k
and left.
"Hi!" At this time, a couple passing by them greeted with a smile, Wang Yang and Jessica responded politely: "Hi!" The handsome and charming couple smiled at them, Go elsewhere.
When the couple left, Wang Yang withdrew his gaze and suddenly looked at Jessica around him, asking, "Is that just Brad Pitt? And Jennifer Aniston?" Jessica nodded. , Said softly: "I think so." Wang Yang laughed and shrugged: "Real people are as handsome as in the movie. Jessie, do you know, I watched" Vampire Night Visit "five times, that's me Not many horror movies I like. "
Jessica laughed: "I like Rachel, Rachel in" Six People Walk. "" She looked at Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston in the distance, and looked at Wang Yang again and smiled sweetly. Tao: "They are really happy, and we will too."
Wang Yang was startled, because he had seen a movie called "Smith and Mrs." in his head, and there was a follow-up report saying that because of the movie, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie said good. Click "scratch the spark of love", the normal word is "derailment", anyway, Brad and Jennifer Aniston divorced, and then came together with Angelina.
After looking at Jessica, who was looking forward to it, Wang Yang squeezed her palm and smiled: "We will be happy." Jessica smiled at him with a sweet smile.
"Jan, are they smiling at me?" Jessica's eyes were a few ladies dressed in the same fashion. They were laughing and talking about women's topics. They did look at this from time to time. Wang Yang looked at it and nodded, "Well, maybe you should go up to say hello and get to know some friends." Jessica smiled at him slightly, and said, "K, then I've passed." Walking past the handbag.
After Jessica left, Wang Yang walked around casually, celebrities attending the dinner were celebrities, many first-line superstars and famous directors in the movie industry, he suddenly saw a familiar face in front, could not help but a little nervous, it was Robert Ze Migis! The good director, now wearing a blue-grey suit, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, holding a glass of red wine and drinking, with a kind smile on his face.
God! Wang Yang took a deep breath. Robert Zemigis was one of his favorite directors. "Emerald" first brought him into the movie world. "Back to the Future" let him know what science fiction, "Ah "Gan Zheng Zhuan" made him think a lot ... It is no exaggeration to say that Robert Zemigis is his lead. He chose to go to NC, most of the reason is because Robert Zemigis graduated from NC.
Wang Yang wanted to go up to talk to him and organized his own language. A few days before he was expelled from the University of Southern California, Robert Zemigis came to the school to give a lecture. They did exchange a few words in private, because when the lecture was over, he rushed to catch Yes, at that time, he asked a seemingly silly question: "Mr. Zemigis, what kind of director do you think is a good director?" At that time, Robert Zemigis didn't think about it, and he smiled and replied: " Shooting what you want to shoot is a good director. "
"Hey, an!" Suddenly, a voice sounded next to him, Wang Yang looked around and saw Will Smith in a black suit with a signature smile. He stretched out a hand and smiled: "Know, Will Smith. "Wang Yang held out his hand and shook his hand, grinning:" Wang Yang. Will, glad to meet you. "
Will Smith laughed: "Me too. Magic Yang, did you look a little nervous just now?" Wang Yang laughed: "I saw Mr. Robert Zemigis, he is my favorite director." Will- Smith patted his shoulder and said enthusiastically: "I understand that seeing someone who has been admired for a long time will inevitably be a little overwhelming. But you just need to go up and say hello, everything will be k."
"Thank you, Will, I know." Wang Yang nodded. Will slapped him on the shoulder again and smiled, "There is a chance to work together." After leaving, looking at his back, Wang Yang smiled softly, "Okay."
Wang Yang looked at Robert Zemigis over there again. When he saw that he was drinking red wine alone, he walked up. Coming to the big director, Wang Yang reached out and smiled and said: "Hello, Mr. Zemigis." Robert Zemigis saw him. He suddenly laughed and stretched out his hand with Wang Yang, laughing: "Magic Yang , Hello, your movie is great. "
"Thank you." Wang Yang smiled and said sincerely: "Mr. Zemigis, maybe you don't know, the first movie I watched is your" Emerald ". You are like my mentor, so today I am very happy to meet you. "
Robert Zemigis laughed heartily, took a sip of red wine, looked at Wang Yang, and said with a smile: "You are a good boy. If I were 19, I had two movies with a box office of over 200 million. I saw those Old guy, I might be dismissive.
Wang Yang was a little embarrassed and said:
Do n’t say that, the box office is just ...
Robert Zemigis interrupted him with a smile and said,
Boy, I know you What I want to say, indeed the box office does not mean everything; but any movie with a high box office is an excellent movie. Both of your movies are very good, I have watched them. "
Wang Yang said "Thank you" again, and Robert Zemigis suddenly laughed again: "But haven't we known each other? I still remember your question, that's a good question." Wang Yang said with a little surprise: " Do you still remember? "Zegigis smiled and nodded his head, said:" Yang, I will tell you what a good director needs, that is good memory, you need to remember many things. "
"Yes, I agree." Wang Yang couldn't help laughing. If a director doesn't have a good memory, then the film crew may be messed up when shooting, because the whole crew is listening to the director's words. He laughed again: "I didn't understand before; made a movie and now I understand."
Robert Zemigis raised his glass to salute Wang Yang, took a sip, and smiled: "Yang, I have to say something, do it well!" He gave a thumbs-up and said, "You make us Nanga 'shame 'It's; but, it gives us a long face again.' The shame he said was naturally a serious mistake for the guide to increase injustice and good people; the long face is because in any case, Wang Yang is a director of the "Nantah faction".
Wang Yang smiled and didn't know what to say. He had heard that Robert Zemigis was joking before, and it was true.
"Robert." At this time, Steven Spielberg in a black suit and a black bow tie came over. He first greeted Robert Zemigis. Zemigis smiled: " See who is coming! "Spielberg then looked at Wang Yang. Wang Yang reached out to him and smiled: "Mr. Spielberg, I am Wang Yang, I am very pleased to meet you." Spielberg smiled slightly and shook hands with him, saying: "Boy, I have to ask you Apologize, I am very sorry for the incident in Nanda. "
He said this because he is also a graduate of NGC and one of the directors of NGC.
"It's nothing, Mr. Spielberg." Wang Yang smiled indifferently. Although Spielberg is a director, he usually doesn't care about the school's affairs at all. He was expelled from the matter of being expelled from the director. With a faint and sincere smile on his face, he said: "That thing passed, I don't blame Nanda, it's always my alma mater."
Robert Zemigis laughed haha ​​and said: "Don't say those things, say something interesting." He looked at Spielberg and laughed: "I still remember last year," Saving the Soldier Ryan "In the third week of the screening, when I looked at the weekly box office rankings, I was surprised to call it 'Damn it, what kind of movie is" The Ghost Record "?" He haha ​​and continued: "I think, Steven This time in trouble, he lost to a horror movie. "
His relationship with Spielberg can be said to be too strong. His first screenplay "1941" was directed by Spielberg; "Back to the Future" is their cooperation. classic. The relationship between the two of them is extraordinary, so it doesn't matter who is joking casually.
Spielberg smiled gracefully, looked at Wang Yang, and praised: "The Ghost Record is great. That's the horror movie I've seen. The tricks in it are amazing. The ending is really good. Great. "Wang Yang nodded with a smile:" Thank you. "
"Oh guys, I suddenly thought something was wrong!" Robert Zemigis patted his forehead and said with a bitter face: "" Ghost Record "defeated" Saving Soldier Ryan ", Steven has Trouble; "High School Musical" defeated "Star Wars Episode 1", George is in trouble ... Isn't it my turn next time? "He looked at Wang Yang and said with a laugh:" Boy, your next movie When will it be released? My movie should be released next year, it seems to avoid you. "
"I don't know, Mr. Zemigis, there is no plan yet." Wang Yang laughed and said jokingly: "I'll tell you when I'm sure." Robert Zemigis laughed: "Haha , Ok! Steven, do you want to avoid it too? "Spielberg shook his head with a smile and said," I don't have a movie plan next year. "
Jessica has been paying attention to Wang Yang's movements, UU reading www. uukanshu.com looked at the distance. He was talking and laughing with the big directors. Her mouth twitched happily, and she felt very proud and sweet.
At the donation of the dinner party, Wang Yang did not be stingy and promised to donate US $ 5 million to support the cause of child protection. His donation amount is almost in front, much better than many first-line superstars, which also makes some people uncomfortably secretly. But Wang Yang didn't have the limelight, just for charity, there was no difference. As the accounts of "High School Musical" arrive, he is not short of money, but many vulnerable groups need help and need his help. He is generous here, and there will be many children who will change their destiny in the future. Isn't this bad?
After the dinner, Wang Yang and Jessica also drove home. Tonight, he was very happy and did a good deed. He also met several directors he loved. It was really fun!
When he was about to return to the community, Wang Yang felt a sudden movement, looked at the charming Jessica next to him, he turned the steering wheel, and drove to his house, grinning: "Jessie, you come home later. Really? "Jessica realized what he meant, and her face was a little red, and she smiled softly:" Why? "
Wang Yang smiled, looked at the road ahead, held out her hand and kissed it, said with a smile: "We were last time, it was a long time ago ..." Jessica rolled her eyes and nodded with a smile. Tao: "Well, whatever you want ..."
